Apartment and too many other things...

I'm sitting on my bed in Ryan and Aletta's apartment, well my apartment too. I like it. I don't have much stuff filling the big space but that is ok. I love the wood floors and big windows. The big window in the living room frames the enormous green leafed tree right outside. Its like having a gorgeous painting I didn't even have to buy. I have a house decorating magazine sitting next to me and I am overwhelmed by the possibilities. I want to paint and decorate and make this place my favorite place to be. I think it will happen. I'm really excited to live by my self. I'm also really excited to have good friends come over and enjoy the space too.

I don't know if I'll have much time to do all of that though. I have a lot to do in the next couple weeks. I have planning for a voter registration drive. A voter registration where I might mention the U of O, or just little ol' me has committed to registering 5,000 people. 5,000 people! I have a lot of work to do. We also have an ASUO (associated students of the u of o) retreat from the 13-15 at the beach. I will get some go work done there hopefully. Then I get back and the debate retreat starts on the 16th and goes through the 20th. First two days here in Eugene then the 18-20th at my family's beach cabin in Cannon Beach. Oh I also happen to have an OSA Board meeting in Corvallis at 5pm on the 19th, I wonder how that will work.

Needless to say I am the same old Emily. Too much to do and not enough time. Screw that though, I just made some phone calls and contacts, which is good work. I have a bowl of blueberries and raspberries in the fridge that are calling me. Then I am drawn away from the apartment for shopping. I am so excited to hang things on the walls and get my couch and TV here. Then it will feel like home. Off to get coffee, make a list of things I need, then a list of things I want, then into the world of shopping and a few meetings.
