Dinosaur mood rings are awesome
so i did my wash today, at school, it was kind of weird. since i had to drag all my clothing to the school. my friend had to swipe her card so that i could use the washer and dryer. it only took like two hours though which isn't that bad. of course i like to hang my jeans out to dry instead of putting them in the dryer and some of my shirts so i had to bring them back to the apartment and let them dry. i was glad that people weren't really hanging around outside (pry because it was like 17 degrees Fahrenheit) otherwise it would have been extremely awkward.
also it was flurrying today!
but i wasn't excited at that time because i had to go to the planetarium and i didn't want it to suddenly snow storm and never be able to arrive there.
but thankfully it didn't and i got to the planetarium.
apparently it's the biggest planetarium on the east side of my state. which is pretty cool. I really like constellations. I don't know why but i have this weird liking for stars. So it was really cool to be there and to have the lady point out Orion's belt, the little dipper, the big dipper, the north star, the canine major and canine minor. it was cool. oh i went with my friend Kate and when we first arrived there we had to park in these parking spots that were kind of weird. they were like sideways but still on the road. i dont know it was weird. so i like pulled into a parking spot and this car was behind me and they like pulled into a parking spot too, turns out they were from my college, and were there for earth and space too...
never seen them around campus before so it was kind of weird.
and while waiting for the star show to start saw some more people from my college show up and people from my class. it was very interesting!
anyways after the show we walked around the museum part of it, and it was really cool. they had this fluorescent light room. it was cool until you noticed that it showed all the white spots on your clothing very brightly, it was weird. haha.
looked at the dinosaur stuff, the planets. then we walked into the live reptile room. now i really dislike snakes and tarantulas, and they had a lot of snakes in there. and i pretty much thought i was going to throw up. so i basically stood near the door the entire time waiting for kate so we could go to the gift shop haha.
so we went to the gift shop and looked at all the stuff ESPECIALLY THE MOOD RINGS! it was so awesome, they had all these cool mood rings! i was so excited. i bought a dinosaur mood ring, kate bought a turtle one. we joked about buying a unicorn one for John, but we didn't. but later on after we were back on campus we totally realized we should have it would have been awesomeeeee!!
haha.
hmm. after getting back on campus we chilled for a bit. well kate did her homework and i read this book that she told me to read, which was actually really interesting. then we went to dinner.
afterwards Kate and i went to the library and rented Garden State and Finding Neverland. we only watched Garden State though, it's a strange movie with like no plot. but still it was interesting.
i guess eventually we will actually watch Finding Neverland. i really want to see that movie though. pluss Johnny Depp is in it :)
we also pigged out on ice cream, popcorn and these weird chocolate drizzled pretzel waves.
and now i need to go to the gym tomorrow.
haha.
also shb count...still eleven.
it's cool though.
and well i think that's it...
yup going to sleep like now. i'm so tired, the heater in my room is really good...i mean seriously i like sweat to death every night now. it's horrible. i even have turned off the space heater, which was practically unthinkable before. it's very bizarre.
okay well goodnight!

...when the grass was greener, and your hair was longer.
mad cow was pretty hilarious tonight. although the co-captain wasn't there since he is away studying abroad in Japan. so you could sort of tell there was a missing element. a little sad.
but it's alright, before the show they sometimes walk around and ask people in the audience to name random objects or places or something. so i said lampshade, and they actually used it in the one skit. i was like HAHAHHA! i said that!.
too weird.
afterwards there was no party. i'm extremely glad, instead i hung out in the jays nest with John, Kate, Joe, Jenna and her friend Cindy who was visiting.
we talk about the weirdest things. lol
anyways i was really glad there wasn't a party, i mean i'm super tired, and if there was a party it would go on for like four more hours... horrifying.
i mean i'm sad that it meant that i wouldn't FINALLY meet SHB. or hang out with my bff Tom (he is the guy who was the third peer mentor person with Shikirra and I, i also met him at a party once and he forgot me, as was obvious when i "met" him at the peer mentor thing haha)
i suspected there wouldn't be a party anyways, since there is a track meet somewhere tomorrow, and since Mike and Clayton are both on the track team they will be there. and need to be well rested.
meanwhile tomorrow i am doing laundry at the school, and going to the planetarium (attempt 2) i suspect i will make it there this time since i printed out my own directions, and i'm using my friends GPS. so its looking pretty good that i'll arrive there and get to see the show. i'm glad.
although it's really cold out, which makes me hate venturing outside. i mean really it's like 20 degrees with a wind chill in like the tens. hate that so much dude. :/
it wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't for the wind that cuts you right to the bone. horrible.
anyways SHB count is eleven. he was leaving dinner today when i was going in with my friends. exciting i know.
Greek was weird as always today, and work was boring. wish i had my headphones. that's like the twentieth time i've said that but it'll be two weeks til i go home and get to find them! so you'll hear about it for a little bit longer (hahaha)
well i'm pretty sure thats it for now. the tips of my fingers dont' hurt as bad anymore, but i can't tell if it's because they are getting better and used to the strings, or if i just fail at practicing... it makes me nervous, i also dont' think i know how to use the online metronome properly, which is kind of sad, but we will find out on monday.
also today at dinner Andrew was being kind of mean to me, so i told him i didn't want to talk to him anymore, and ignored him for like five minutes, and he does this really annoying thing of raising his hand when he wants to talk to you, so he kept doing that but i kept ignoring him, then he started putting all his plates and his cup onto my tray and i was like UGH. so i took all of his stuff and put it back on his tray, and then everyone else started piling things onto his tray and he got all flustered and then somehow something spilled on his pants and he was like "I'm leaving" then he texted Jenna and apparently he was all upset about it, and Jenna was like he's very "sensitive" i was like dude whatever he is the one who was really mean and kept putting his stuff on my tray. so annoying. i'm not sitting near him again. ever. and now there are people screaming outside my window. oh how i hate drunk college students. oh weird i think clayton just went out on the balcony, he will totally be able to tell that i'm still up because my light shines through the blinds...awkward.
okay well. going to sleep now in my room that just became like a billion degrees, weird old heaters.
goodnight.

we are all made of star matter.
so it's really cold and windy out today and it's supposed to be again tomorrow. i'm really not looking forward to venturing out to Greek class at 8 in the morning. boo. :(
anyways SHB count: 10 :)
saw him at lunch today. i waited for 15 minutes for my one friend then when i called her she was like oh i just got out of the shower i'll be there soon. i was like you know what i'll just go up and sit with John and Steve until you get here and she was like okay. so i was up there getting food and i saw SHB, and he was wearing a baseball hat and he looked super cute, and he has the SAME COLOR NORTH FACE JACKET AS ME! ahha. it's kind of weird. since i had no idea he owned it, when i got mine. i dont know i feel like i mentioned that on here before but oh well.
so i had earth and space today, not that bad we watched three videos, one had tom selleck as the host/narrator person, it was funny.
also had theology through film we watched a movie called "this film is not yet rated" and it's about the MPAA and how they rate films and such. and well the film isn't rated, and it has a lot of content in it that would make it NC-17. i dont know it was very informative but at the same time made me feel like a major prude. i mean there were a lot of sex scenes. and to me they were kind of disturbing.
and the one guy in the film kept saying things like it's a fact that teenagers do certain things and look at certain sites. and i was like umm i've never done either of those things...
it was really awkward.
so i had mixed emotions about it.
but my teacher knows my full name now. haha. when she saw me she was like hi sam. i was like hi.
haha. oh well.
so Greek tomorrow, then work then the weekend! YAY! :)
tomorrow night is Mad Cow i'm excited :)
although Sam and Kristin both are leaving. so i guess it'll be John, Kate, Jenna, and me. so that will be interesting. and i kind of really hope Mike and Clay don't have a party. i mean i like the parties because i like laughing at the people who are drunk and stupid, but they are tiring and a lot of cleaning the next day.
although maybe SHB would be there. or my new bff Tom.
hahah.
which by the way i went up to get dessert today and i was going to sit down and i walked by Tom but i figured he wasn't going to say hi to me but then he was like "hi SAM" and he said kind of loudly and i was like hi tom,
then i saw my peer kid and he was like hey sam, and i was like hey cameron. i have never felt so popular while at school. ahha. and it was weird since they were both boys. it seems i have a lot of guy friends now. when did this happen? i have no idea. hahaha. weird.
anyways i need to perfect my greek homework and go to sleep and it's already 10:30 eww. sigh. good night!
uh quote of the day
"i need to find a mate who is just as weird as me"
-John
hahaha. we were talking about the article in the school newspaper that a girl had written about how all the guys at my school are taken, gay or just emotionally unavailable. and somehow were talking about finding the right person. and well John always says interesting things lol. i hope he wouldn't be embarrassed by the fact i just used that quote...
oh and i had a weird dream about him and SHB last night they were fighting over me, but John was being very overprotective and wouldn't let shb near me, but he somehow got near me and kissed me, and i wanted to be his girlfriend but John wouldn't let that happen, then somehow shb was writing love letters to me, and john would intercept them, but my friend found them somewhere and gave them to me and suddenly i was reading all of these adorable love letters from shb.
it was kind of extremely weird and romantic.
sigh.
okay bye for real now.

it all comes back to haunt you in the end
so my mom is on the phone right now, and i really dont' like when she calls me, she always tells me all this depressing information about life at home. like how all she had for dinner was a boiled egg and a tomato. and i'm like oh wow that's just great makes me want to rush right home and be there. NOT.
blah.
family life is so stupid, basically all the time.
it's like i start feeling like i miss home, then my mom calls me and tells me how they have like no food at home and blah blah blah and i'm like okay never mind i love school. i love being here, having a cafeteria, seeing shb, being stalked by the french kid (who smiled at me today btw, and he waved to my friend Kristin, apparently they are friends now.) i even love my roommates, yes, even clayton, who now waves to me in public. I EVEN LOVE KICKBOXING, that leaves me sore the day after, and makes it hurt when i'm just walking up the stairs. apparently all my friends worked out today. i dont know how they did, i mean it hurts just standing and i'm pretty sure they are all in pain too, and it's not really good for your body to like do a lot of damage to it two days in a row. idk. i'll work out tomorrow though.
but anyways i just really like it here. i feel at home here. and when my mom calls it makes me not want to go home. isn't that sad.
i think that's really sad, it's not supposed to be like that.
anyways enough of that depressing stuff.
shb count? NINE.
ready for this?
so i went to dinner with Sam early today since she had class at 6:30 and everyone else was meeting at 6:15 so Sam asked me to go with her at 6. so i did, and we walked up to get food and we walked by shb and he made eye contact with me again. i'm not sure how i feel about this yet. since i can't tell if he is looking at me like how do i know, or like what, i don't know it's confusing.
anyways when he was leaving today, i saw his calves. so muscular.
hahahaha
that's so weird.
then at like 7:20 i went to that religious studies get together thing and it was actually not that bad. 4/5 teachers there knew me or just remembered me. it was really exciting. like my Jesus and Moral Life teacher, yeah he remembered me! and the lady who subbed for my Greek teacher last semester who is now my advisor, she remembered me, and then the teacher i have this semester remembered my full name after i was like yeah i'm in your class i'm Sam, she was like right and said my full name. i was like oh man. but it was cool then i met the one guy today he seemed cool and the other teacher i met twice and he remembered me from the beginning of last semester. which is kind of crazy intense.
the get together made me feel like i made the right choice in a major :)
although i didn't talk to any other students that were there haha oh well.
there were only like five students there anyways, so it's alright.
oh so i had Greek and Sculpture today.
Greek was like it always was, i wanted to start my homework tonight, so i should do that soon, and Sculpture was nice because my teacher wasn't there so i didn't feel pressured to like make my sculpture of a non objective clay object amazing. i felt pretty relaxed actually. and i actually like the way it turned out. i'm pretty excited about it. :)
although i have no idea what i'm supposed to do with it, after it's put in the kiln and everything that is. but i'm excited !
then i practiced guitar too, my fingers still really hurt. but it's alright. it'll be worth it when i can play awesome songs :)
i also started work today. did loads and loads of laminating, then had to rip some pages out of books. didn't finish that part, but finished all the laminating and cutting out, so that's pretty good.
i just wished i had my headphones. seriously. miss them.
earth and space tomorrow and theology through film.
going to work on my greek homework now. excitement. i know.
"we dont' have to fight tonight, we just gotta try. tonight"
p.s. listening to Nick's album on his myspace, love it.
blah.

this used to be a fun house.
so the tips of my fingers hurt from practicing guitar today. but that's a good thing. my teacher (MR. CULLEN) told me that i will/should get blisters on the tips of my fingers... i'm not really looking forward to that, but then at least i know and he knows that i'm practicing haha.
also my legs BURN. went to kickboxing today. extremely painful. the teacher was insane, it kind of felt like she hated us. plus she kind of had horrible music, and it was too loud so i couldn't really hear her and there were a lot of people there so it was hard to see what she was demonstrating.
PLUS. the French stalker kid from the first day that i peer mentored was there, he was by himself, so my friend kate was like Sam go invite him over here. and i was uh no, first of all he stalked me the first day, second of all i don't know his name and i have no obligation to feel creeped out while i'm working out. and thirdly i'm not walking across the room for no reason. so my other friend went with kate and they started talking to him and brought him over to our side. i'm pretty sure he didn't like us, because when we got a one minute break (yes only one minute. the teacher seriously was so mean) he like walked away and went to talk to other people. we were like fine dude we see it how it is. i mean it was super nice of us to offer to talk to him when he was standing by himself in the beginning of the class. granted i dont know if he went to get a drink of water, or if he really just hated us.
anyways. all i know is, kickboxing kicked my butt. my legs burn, and it hurt to walk up the stairs into my apartment. i'm afraid i won't be able to walk tomorrow. like seriously we did so many lunges. insanity. then she was like we are going to do planks now. and i was like uh what? i mean i did planks everyday during break for thirty seconds, so when we did it i was like woah this isn't that big of a deal. but still she said we complained too much then made us do this weird move your body from side to side while in plank position thing, and i was like okay so why do you hate us so much? plus i couldn't really concentrate sometimes because the french kid was near us while we worked out and he kicked insanely high and was incredibly flexible, and my friend Sam kept stopping and be like wait a second what are we doing. and it was kind of hilarious.
i dont know. anyways after the kickboxing lesson was over and i felt like i couldn't move the French kid started doing splits. yup, he was like stretching and doing splits. i wanted to cry a little bit, mostly because he went completely down. i mean i cant even do a split and i'm a girl. like WOAH. goodness. seriously he was like the splits guy from american idol....
anyways i'm not sure if i'll ever go to those again. we'll see how i feel tomorrow.
so shb count is 8 today.
i saw him while at dinner, first off we sat at this table where you can see everyone grab their tray, and honestly i dont like sitting there because they all can look at you, and i always get distracted and watch all the people.
so anyways he came in and my friend Kristin was like i dont understand why people where spandex as pants. i was like yeah that's weird, and she was like especially boys and points at someone wearing spandex. i look over and it's shb. i was like hahaha! oh my gosh. i told her who it was and she was like well that's weird. and well i agree. boys shouldn't just wear spandex. i mean i know he does track and all but he should really wear some shorts over those or something. seriously. it's weird.
but anyways so later on, we saw this girl who we call bump it, because her hair always has this bump in it, like she is wearing a bump it, so kristin pointed her out and i turned my head the one way and shb had just grabbed dessert(cookies i believe) and was getting ready to like leave that section to leave the cafeteria and totally looked at me and it was kind of weird, so then i turned my head the other way and saw bump it.
so awkward.
lol
also my friend John told me at dinner he had a dream about me last night, or that i was in his dream. i was like oh weird... then he like explained it. apparently we were like in fifth grade and doing cell biology or physics or something and we were both scared because we thought there was an earthquake but in reality the room was just spinning.
idk. it sounds weird to me. but i was like oh man he had a dream about me... WEIRD. since i had a dream about him the other day.
and well that was like the second dream i've had about him.
i mean it's normal to have dreams about your friends because you see them all the time, but still it's weird. lol.
so earth and space was kind of hilarious today. well in the beginning there was this new kid in class so he went to introduce himself to Stuckey (our teacher)
he was like "hi, i'm dylan, i just joined this class",
stuckey was like "hi bill."
and he was like "no i'm dylan"
stuckey was like "hi shawn,"
and dylan was like "no, dylan."
and stuckey was like "what?"
and he was like "DYLAN."
then stuckey was like "OHHHH HI DYLAN, i'm deaf in case you can't tell."
lol
i dont know if that was you had to be there moment, but i was internally laughing hysterically. i love Stuckey he's so funny.
then we went over our lab, and watched a video about how the earth was formed, and how we are all made of star matter.
very weird.
then went to lunch, had theology and film, have a sort of friend in that class, she sat next to me in greek last semester, so it's nice that i'll actually have someone to talk to.
but all the creepy lacrosse boys in that class always are staring at me.
i dont' know if it's because i have the same name well go by Sam, and so does one of their friends. or if they just are checking me out? idk. but it's very uncomfortable. but there is this kid named Shane in that class and i think he is a religious studies minor or something, he seems pretty nice. maybe i'll actually talk to him sometime.
see there is this "meeting" tomorrow for anyone who is interested in religious studies, or is taking a minor or major in religious studies. so we can all meet eachother. i don't know if i want to go yet. but i'm thinking i should. it would be interesting to see who else is a part of it.
anyways i have greek at 8 tomorrow morning and then i'm starting work. so i'm going to bed :)
goooooddd nightttt

Eso, Eso, Eso.
shb count: seven :D
haha.
sometimes i like to pretend that he actually sees me when he walks by. but then i snap back to reality.
oh well.
so i saw my one peer kid at lunch today. I pretty much see him everyday. but it's nice because he always says hi to me. he's so nice, so i decided to add him on facebook. I mean it's been over a week since i've known him. then at dinner i saw another one of my peer kids. he smiled at me, and he's the one that was really nice to me and told that other peer mentor we were having a good conversation haha. he was eating by himself though, so i went over and i was like do you want to eat with my friends and i, he was like oh no thanks i'm going to eat with him, and he pointed to some guy.
i'm pretty sure they are like on the soccer team together or something though. so it wasn't like he was a random person.
but then i asked him how his first week of classes was and he was like eh you know. i was like yeah like school. ahha. he was like yeah. then he was like thanks for inviting me to sit with you though. and i was like no problem.
then i went and sat back with my friends.
haha, he's a nice kid too, so i added him as a friend on facebook too. is it mean that i only added two out of all of them? i mean i only really talked to those two and this other girl who is a commuter. so.... i'm just going to say that all the other people dont' really care.
anyways so John told me he liked my shirt today. It's of a spanish soap opera called "El Chavo del Ocho" we used to watch it in Elementary School, to improve our spanish lol.
he's too funny.
I also had my first guitar lesson today!
it really wasn't that bad, he wasn't as weird and creepy as my friend Kate said he would be.
i mean he's weird, but only cause he glues guitar picks underneath his fingernails. and that's just kind of strange.
but besides that he's just a guitar teacher, he was nice. I mean he asked me a lot of questions about school and stuff then would be like lets play this, and we would do it. so i just really need to practice alot. I mean i tried over break but i'm really not that good, and he wants me to work on doing it with a rhythm going in the background. so i'm all for that. i'm pretty sure my fingers are supposed to blister though, and i'm supposedly to get weird muscles in my forearms and near my thumb. but it'll be worth it when i can play Taylor Swift songs on my guitar :)
because he was like so what kind of music do you like, and i was like uh i like a lot of stuff. i was like, like pop, you know Demi Lovato, or country, Taylor Swift and Christian music like Tal and Acacia or Relient K. and he was like hmm. well you will have to bring some of that in. so i'm not sure whether he means the music or like the sheet music of the songs... i'm pretty sure he would just mean the music though. but we'll have to wait til i get to that point. he makes me kind of nervous though since i'm not that good and he like asked me if i was i go to church here...which i didn't realize why he asked me that until just now. it's because i told him my major is religious studies...so that makes sense now. haha. but i was like yeah, and he was like are you a part of any of the groups. i was like, like praise band? then no. and he was like would that be something we could work towards? i was like umm sure. so apparently my goal is to be a part of praise band now... i'm not sure how i feel about this. but oh well. he also asked if i sing. and i was like no. then he was like at all? and i was like well when i'm by myself. he was like, like when you are in the car alone? and i was like yeah.. and he was like GOOD! i would be worried if you didnt' sing at all. i was like okay... haha. so apparently i will be singing during my guitar lessons. which kind of worries me, i'm really not that great at singing. so we'll see how this goes. but i'm really excited, i can't wait to be able to play songs on the guitar!!! :D
and sculpture was better today. we are going to finally start making sculptures on wednesday, even though he's not going to be there. but i'm so excited. we watched a really long movie in class today. it was kind of interesting but at the same time not so much. i just want to start making sculptures. the first thing we are making is supposed to be non-objective. which means we aren't supposed to think about what we are making. so that should be extremely interesting.
yay! :)
and greek was greek. my teacher is so strange.
well going to the gym soon.
hopefully not that many people are there.
STILL wish i knew where my headphones were. it annoys me that i cant find them. i honestly thought i had them in my purse when i came back to school. sigh.
well going to get ready for the gym.
homework afterwards...woohoo.
haha.
laterrrr

hilarity.
We showed John the videos for Like A Boss, and then he was like did you ever see the one for Space Olympics? and we were like no... so we watched it and it was weird and didn't really make sense, but oh wells. Andy Sandberg is hilarious.

before i fall, too fast.
so in case you are wondering.
shb count? STILL FOUR!
i know i'm basically just as shocked as you are. can't believe i didn't see him today.
it's crazy.
anyways. yay fridays!
i mean i had to get up for Greek but whatever it went pretty fast and afterwards i came back and painted my nails (it's called like purple pizzaz or something, but it's an intense purple, i basically love it. haha) watched Burn Notice, watched Chuck then watched The Office, all new from this week. it was nice having all that time!
then i went to lunch with my friends Sam and Kristin. they are great friends :)
we ended up talking for like an hour and a half! ahha. also saw two of my peer kids :)
the one kid whom i see like everyday and pry thinks i'm stalking him, but now he's not as afraid to at least wave to me haha.
then i saw the kid who stuck up for me too :)
ahh he's so adorable. and he was def going to say something to me, then the soccer coach was like BOYS i saved a seat for you over hear. i was like. uh woah soccer coach we almost just had a moment.
haha could you imagine if i actually said that?!
anyways spent some time with Sam, while Kristin went and studied for physics and got ready to go home for the weekend (AGAIN). and we were looking at the people who have their music listed as shared. there is a boy (we know it's a boy because he called it something along the lines of getting some in ober 152, and that floor means it's a boys room. hha.
and well he basically had all these different types of music. like bob dylan, bob marley, all these different indie bands, some disney songs, one from the little mermaid and one from the lion king...
he even had "how i beat shaq" by aaron carter. i know, i know, we must meet this boy, i think he sounds pretty good for Sam. since she really likes all those indie bands. so we are working on that haha :)
then we went to see THIS IS IT. the Michael Jackson movie. so i'm not like a huge fan of him, but it was actually really cool to see how his concert would have been. I mean i like some of his songs. (Thriller, Bad, Smooth Criminal, Billie Jean) and i just don't really know that many other ones of his, i mean i know he changed pop music forever with his dancing and everything, so that's pretty intense, and cool, i just was never really into him. well i mean to like find more of his music and listen to it. to be honest he kind of scared me.
but after seeing that movie, i might get some of his music, and not care. sometimes i just wish we could know for sure that he didn't do those things he was accused of. i want to believe he didn't because i want to believe the best of everybody. but it's hard to.
so afterwards went to dinner.
um clayton actually waved to me.
i know, i'm shocked too, again. ahha
i was like. woah clayton just waved to me.
this is a big step. we can now be friends in public i guess! haha
then Sam and I had to attend the opening night of the art gallery for art class (sculpture for me, and ceramics 2 and printmaking for her) so we went to that with Kate, Joe, and John.
it was pretty cool.
i like this new part of me that is interested in seeing all this art and such. i think i'm old enough to appreciate it now.
and the sculptures were SOOO cool.
after that we went and hung out in Kates room for a bit. she got a new guitar in Lithuania so she brought that out and had John play it. and well he's such a good guitar player. i could listen to him play for hours. it was so cool. it was also really calming. and i realllllyyy can't wait til i can play like that. you know just bring out my guitar when i'm feeling stressed and strum the stress away. well i hope i will be able to do that. that would be great.
then we all just basically hung out the rest of the night.
now it's 3 am on saturday. and i have to go to sleep. meeting sam for lunch at 12. then at 2:15 we are heading to the planetarium ! because i have to go for a lab. haha but i'm excited it should be really cool!
okay well um i'm really tired and i can't think of a quote of the day
lame excuse i know.
uh two tomorrow? k love you :)
shb count? STILL FOUR!
i know i'm basically just as shocked as you are. can't believe i didn't see him today.
it's crazy.
anyways. yay fridays!
i mean i had to get up for Greek but whatever it went pretty fast and afterwards i came back and painted my nails (it's called like purple pizzaz or something, but it's an intense purple, i basically love it. haha) watched Burn Notice, watched Chuck then watched The Office, all new from this week. it was nice having all that time!
then i went to lunch with my friends Sam and Kristin. they are great friends :)
we ended up talking for like an hour and a half! ahha. also saw two of my peer kids :)
the one kid whom i see like everyday and pry thinks i'm stalking him, but now he's not as afraid to at least wave to me haha.
then i saw the kid who stuck up for me too :)
ahh he's so adorable. and he was def going to say something to me, then the soccer coach was like BOYS i saved a seat for you over hear. i was like. uh woah soccer coach we almost just had a moment.
haha could you imagine if i actually said that?!
anyways spent some time with Sam, while Kristin went and studied for physics and got ready to go home for the weekend (AGAIN). and we were looking at the people who have their music listed as shared. there is a boy (we know it's a boy because he called it something along the lines of getting some in ober 152, and that floor means it's a boys room. hha.
and well he basically had all these different types of music. like bob dylan, bob marley, all these different indie bands, some disney songs, one from the little mermaid and one from the lion king...
he even had "how i beat shaq" by aaron carter. i know, i know, we must meet this boy, i think he sounds pretty good for Sam. since she really likes all those indie bands. so we are working on that haha :)
then we went to see THIS IS IT. the Michael Jackson movie. so i'm not like a huge fan of him, but it was actually really cool to see how his concert would have been. I mean i like some of his songs. (Thriller, Bad, Smooth Criminal, Billie Jean) and i just don't really know that many other ones of his, i mean i know he changed pop music forever with his dancing and everything, so that's pretty intense, and cool, i just was never really into him. well i mean to like find more of his music and listen to it. to be honest he kind of scared me.
but after seeing that movie, i might get some of his music, and not care. sometimes i just wish we could know for sure that he didn't do those things he was accused of. i want to believe he didn't because i want to believe the best of everybody. but it's hard to.
so afterwards went to dinner.
um clayton actually waved to me.
i know, i'm shocked too, again. ahha
i was like. woah clayton just waved to me.
this is a big step. we can now be friends in public i guess! haha
then Sam and I had to attend the opening night of the art gallery for art class (sculpture for me, and ceramics 2 and printmaking for her) so we went to that with Kate, Joe, and John.
it was pretty cool.
i like this new part of me that is interested in seeing all this art and such. i think i'm old enough to appreciate it now.
and the sculptures were SOOO cool.
after that we went and hung out in Kates room for a bit. she got a new guitar in Lithuania so she brought that out and had John play it. and well he's such a good guitar player. i could listen to him play for hours. it was so cool. it was also really calming. and i realllllyyy can't wait til i can play like that. you know just bring out my guitar when i'm feeling stressed and strum the stress away. well i hope i will be able to do that. that would be great.
then we all just basically hung out the rest of the night.
now it's 3 am on saturday. and i have to go to sleep. meeting sam for lunch at 12. then at 2:15 we are heading to the planetarium ! because i have to go for a lab. haha but i'm excited it should be really cool!
okay well um i'm really tired and i can't think of a quote of the day
lame excuse i know.
uh two tomorrow? k love you :)

i wish i could watch burn notice, the season premiere tonight
shb count is still 4. i know. i'm really sad too. oh well. these things happen i guess. although my friend saw him and she was like we could make that count for you! i was like haha. no no that's fine.
and my other friend keeps saying all these annoying things. i never should have told her about my ex because she always mentions him now and i get really annoyed. it's really not funny. and she also mentions shb all the time, and my one other friend who just found out about him yesterday does too now.
and i'm like just stop it.
it was funny at first because i was like i can't believe i see him all the time, like last semester but now it's not.
i just want to like meet him and get it over with.
i guess it's bad if you hate your friends sometimes. but that's how i feel when they mention the ex (well only one friend in particular ever does this), and when they are like making jokes about shb, they act like i'm in love with him. which i'm not. i only know his name. that's not enough to be like I LOVE HIM!
i need to meet him, hang out with him, talk to him a lot before i even have a chance to think something like that.
sigh.
but i do love John for how he was like "do you want to know him" the other day. i think he also can tell when everyone is stressing me out when they say things about it because he always like distracts them. i really appreciate it. he's such a good friend.
anyways i need to study for my greek vocab test tomorrow. yucky. only class tomorrow and it's at 8 in the morning. sad.face.

ps. when i was at the gym today trying to study my greek vocab words, they had star trek the tv series on the tv, so i got distracted and kept watching that. it was interesting. haha
okay bye.

I'm going to import this right now!
so tired today.
also ate too many mashed potatoes at dinner. blah.
shb count: 4
si.
he also was in viewing distance the entire time i was eating dinner. it was awkward since everyone accused me of staring at him. which i wasn't. then the people who didn't know who he was, idk how they didnt' know but they didn't, kept asking who he was, so then i had to explain to them who he was, and where he was sitting. sufficiently more awkward.
ALSO saw three more of my peer kids today, and the one that i seem to see everyday, although he didnt see me since he was talking to his friends. so that was good :)
and the one kid who like "saved" me during peer mentoring when he told that girl that we were having a good conversation, yup saw him at lunch. :) i wish i saw him more often though, he's really cute.
hahah.
he was wearing a beanie today you know the way that Mike from HS wears his... and he was also wearing a cardigan, he was adorable.
oh well.
so had Greek today.
my teacher is still insane. there are two people from my class last semester there. they are funny, well Dave is at least.
then the other kid took Greek I like last spring. so i think it's crazy of him to be taking Greek II now. but whatevs, he was also in my Jesus and Moral Life class last semester.
then i also had sculpture. the teacher is funny. except he talked for like an hour about sculptures and it was kind of really boring. i just want to start making sculptures that will be fun. also we apparently have to write two journals a week, at least, and attend like every art show there is here and right evaluations about them. which i think sounds lame. but oh well, he also said he doesnt hand out A's or like most people dont get A's usually A-'s or B's and i was like oh great, i dont need that. but i will stick it out because i need the credit for creative expressions. although it was awkward because i couldn't find the classroom today. it was in room 112 and i walked up and down the hall like five times then i heard other people going where is room 112? then we found out room 112 is INSIDE of room 111. i know, it's weird.
oh well.
and that was basically my day. except Shwayze came into my room a little bit ago and jumped on my bed. that dog has ups. but i disapprove of her being on my bed, that's gross.
dont have class til 11 tomorrow morning!!!!!!!!!! woo.
going to this thing called Soul Cafe tonight, i have no idea what it is, then going to the gym, except i'm not doing any lifting tonight, i lifted two nights in a row and my body hurt today. then i remembered you aren't supposed to do that. so fail on my part.
only going to use an eliptical or something tonight.
i'm tired
oh and i have to read for earth and space? and theology through film.
and you know what's horrible i realized that i left the following items at home:
shorts for the gym
my ipod headphones
and the planner i usually put my homework in
soo this is really bad. i know where the planner and my shorts are, but idk where the headphones are and that makes me sad.
i also tried to put some of mike's music on my ipod today, of course i think i tried this before and it obviously doesn't work since it's set on "shared"
but oh well. at least i tried, plus he has all the john mayer songs, and i would love them.
for real.
and i need to give mike his present.
which i just did! haha. yes. success. i was like well i hope that this at least makes you laugh,
and he was like oh i'm sure it will then he opened it and saw that it was miley's cd and he was like YESSS, this doesnt make me laugh, this is awesome! haha
oh Mike. haha i love him, he's so great. well you know love like he's a great friend...
roommate
you know. whatevs.
anyways uh quote of the day? the above conversation plus when he was like
"is it weird that i am really excited about this?"
haha
okay uh gotta get ready to go to soul cafe, and the gym. excitement.

school.
so i kind of feel really sick at the moment. it's pry from the gym and the fact that we ate less than an hour before we went.
or it could have been the chicken i put on my salad for dinner. who knows.
but either way i feel blahhhh.
hopefully i can sleep it off tonight.
i realized today that at the rate i'm going Mike is never going to get his christmas present... haha oh well. it's just last night, the girl came over, and i was about to go out and give it to him today and guess who showed up. yup. the girl.
so i was like uh never mind.
i enjoy the fact that she's been coming here since at least November and i have yet to actually meet her. it's cool though, i honestly don't want to.
anyways
SHB count: 1 for the day
that is 3 for the week. interesting. very interesting.
oh i spotted him while i was sitting in Theology Through Film, i always look out the door when people walk by, especially since class hadn't started yet, and there he walked on by, with his wonderful spiky hair. lol
so i had two classes today
Earth and Space:
um amazing, hilarious, okay well my teacherS are hilarious. yes teachers , plural.
so i have Stuckey for the first five weeks for astronomy, and he is hilarious. i absolutely love him. my one friend had him sub for physics the one day and she is all jealous that he's my teacher. haha that's how awesome he is :) i can't wait. plus apparently we will be watching at least one movie each class period. which i find interesting. but i only have him for the first five weeks. my other teacher, Scalin, which i'll have the last ten weeks was really funny too, he did the introduction. so i'm kind of excited. i mean i dont love science, but i think they'll make it fun and easy. and they said something about not having to actually go to our scheduled labs all the time, we'll be taking field trips! SCORE!
so excited :)
then
Theology Through Film:
i dont know about this class yet. i took it because i really like watching movies, and i figured with it being about the study of God (that's what theology is at least) it would be really interesting. but so far all i know is we are watching strange movies most of them we have never heard of, and i have a four page paper due in less than four weeks. and a 15 minute presentation before the end of the semester. umm EWWW>
and there are a lot of jocks in my class. i strongly do not like this. because i was listening in on the one kids conversation. he happened to sit right next to me, and not to be near me to be near the other girl at the table, and he was like oh a lot of lacrosse players are in here. and well we all know I LOVE LACROSSE! but i've heard like a billion times that the kids that play lacrosse here are jerks. so i'm not excited. idk they all seem really annoying so far. but i guess we'll see. at least the four page paper is on a movie of my choice.
which reminds me, my friends and i watched (500) Days Of Summer today, absolutely love it, it's kind of sad but happy at the same time. maybe i'll do my paper on that. since it's about love and fate. we'll see.
well i have Greek at 8 am tomorrow. fail. then sculpture at 2. so lots of free time. but i think that's when i'll work for a few hours next week. maybe from like 10 to 1 or something, then i'll just need to find another day to work two hours. it shouldn't be bad. hopefully.
so i need to go to bed i'm so tired.

Peer Mentoring!
soo thanks everyone for the condolences with my dog. you da best (name that youtube video! well if you can't think of it, just remind me to tell you what it is in one of the next blogs i right! HAHA)
haha soo no blog um yesterday (saturday)
my bad.
but i had to pack my car, and drive to school, unpack my car, go to dinner with the lady in charge of peer mentoring, and well it was intense. i mean i was done dinner by 7, well done dinner and back in my apartment by 7. i was just feeling lazy. i thought about going to bed right away.
sad. i know.
but then i ended up watching house until 11.
kind of a bad idea since i had to get up at 7 this morning for peer mentoring. but whatever.
i couldn't sleep that well last night, and i'm going to guess Clayton came back at like 2:52 this morning. such a strange boy. but what can ya do.
so i was up at 7 this morning then.
arrived at school by like 7:50 and went to wait in campus security for all the transfer students, and first year students that were supposed to arrive, which was 14 in total. which i think is alot for spring. but what do i know, it was my first time around. haha
so the lady in charge of transferring in and such was there, she brought some donut holes, and some bagels, and orange juice.
i arrived at the same time as her actually, which i dont know if that was good or bad. but oh well.
so the other girl who was helping me, well actually i would say i was helping her, happened to be my peer mentor last semester! ahha. i really like her though, she's super nice. and funny. and then there was this guy who was helping us, he was basically there for the first year students though (even though there were only 3).
but he was super hilarious.
best part is, i met him at one of mike and clay's parties and he has talked to me at i think two of them before, and he didn't remember me, it was a great moment, since i knew exactly who he was. but what do you expect. he's a boy.
haha
so i think there were like 4 or 5 students out of the transfers that were staying on campus and the rest were commuters, so that was interesting.
and well we just did the regular orientation kind of thing. welcoming, induction, tour of the library, ITS, academic advising, and lunch somewhere in there. so those are the things i did at my orientation in three days. we did it in one. ahha amazing.
so it was really funny talking to some of the kids in my peer group. well since i'm like awkwardly shy. i was like okay i can do this, so i was like trying to talk to them and i would ask a question and they would answer it, and then they wouldn't say anything else. i mean i would have done that too if i was in there position, but still i was like i don't want them to think i'm this annoying person who keeps asking them loads of questions.
what's worse we were in one of the awkward silent pauses and one of the IAP (i think they are like international peer ambassadors, oh so there we go they should be IPA's ha, because we had like 10 international students doing some orientation stuff with us), well she was like HEY GUYS why dont you come join our table, we are super fun.
i was like. wow. i don't like you. i mean it was obvious that i was trying to do my job as a peer mentor. so annoying.
but the one kid was really nice, and he was like OH NO thanks we are having a super great conversation over here.
i was like oh jeez haha. but i thought it was nice of him to consider the fact that that girl just severely embarrassed me in front of three of my peer kids. so i like him. haha. i really appreciated that he did that.
and i totally thought my grandma told me that some kid was coming here in the spring, butttt i forget his name. soo he totally could have been in my group anddddddd i wouldn't have known. the thing is she told me he was like ridiculously tall and played basketball, and no one was ridiculously tall or played basketball. soo i guess he didn't come here, or my grandma got some wrong facts from her brother lol
anyways i hope the peer kids won't mind like saying hi to me if they ever see me. that would make me super happy! i mean they are my first group of peer kids. i just hope i dont forget their names...that would be awkward.
well i mostly talked to Cameron, Ben and Christine, so i'm pretty sure i got those three, and then some of the other ones shouldn't be hard to recognize. hopefully. haha
oh so it was funny, when all the peer kids were in their ITS meeting, Shikirra, Tom and I hung outside of the classroom waiting, and Tom seriously asked me like four times throughout the day, when i had transferred in and like a billion other questions. i was like alright Tom. haha then he asked about my roommates.
such a great moment.
especially when he found out it was Mike and Clay. he was like i know Mike! and i sort of know Clay, i was like haha. yeah. then he somehow talked about their parties and i was like yeah, i met you at one of them. and he was like oh...(awkward silence) then he was like so.. then he somehow worded to ask me if he was drunk when he met me. and i was like umm dude i have no idea. haha. i mean i didn't really know him then so how i could i tell if he was. all i know is he dressed super ghetto the one time. lol.
so that was funny. we'll see if he remembers who i am like tomorrow.
boys. haha
so we invited all the peer kids to dinner, and only one showed up, so we were like well you don't have to stay with us, and he was like okay i'll just go eat with my girlfriend bye. and we were like um alright.
haha.
so then i went to dinner with shikirra and her roommates
it was kind of awkward since i don't know them and they talked about people. well i dont' know, so i just kind of sat there eating,
BUTTTTTTTT
while i was up getting my food. GUESS WHO I SAW!
if you guessed SHB. you win a cookie!
ahha i laughed. well on the inside because he was near me and if i would have randomly laughed it would have been awkward. but i like cut in front of him to get to the salad. and well i didn't even say excuse me. but he had to have seen me! ahha
it makes me laugh that today was technically the "first" day back and i already saw him.
maybe we should start a counter on how many times a week i see him.
yes? or yes?
okay i'll go with yes ;)
anddddd FUNNY STORY.
so you know i got a north face jacket for christmas well it's gray fleece with like the black panels or whatever you call them.
well.
he has one.
the exact same color.
i seriously had no idea when i ordered mine. it's weird.
like we match, and we aren't even dating. weirdness.
but you know it's cool.
because i was getting ready to leave and i talked to this girl who i did Teen Counseling with when i was in tenth grade, she was one of my like group leader people with me. and she actually remembered me, i was shocked, because Shikirra tried to introduce us and she was like OH DUDE IKNOW HER! WE DID TEEN COUNSELING TOGETHER! YEAh! i was like haha yeah we did! i was excited since it's been years since i saw her :)
and this kid i graduated with (actually her younger brother, it's really funny since they both went to the same college, dude it could have been me and my brother, except he's too cool to go to the same school as me, he pry fears i would embarrass him, but dude i have my own friends. like seriously hahah) well he just came back from Hawaii! and he waved to me and then his sister like waved me over when i was going to say hi to two of my friends and she was like so what is your major and told her and he was like that's my minor! i was like oh cool. then i was talking to his sister and i think i said i really like it here like four times. so that was um weird of me. ahah
then i said Hi to Andrew and John, and John was hilarious. seriously missed him over break.
so when i was talking to john and andrew, shb was taking his tray up and there is no doubt he saw me again because i was standing there laughing hysterically at something John just said. so now he either thinks i'm insane and rude, or crazy or something. idk. but i saw him like look at John and Andrew then look back at me. so idk what that means.
i guess we shall see.
so then i visited Sam, and hung out for a super long time, well she was unpacking so i just sat in her room and talked to her while she did that haha. then we got some food and visited John and Andrew in their room, and hung out there for like two hours, John is really entertaining when it comes to music. but i really enjoy it because he likes to show like the wide variety of stuff he enjoys. it's really cool. like we listened to the Rolling Stones tonight, then Little Richard lol. he has a record player in his room, so i think that's super cool too.
then i finally came back here, and mike and clayton weren't here, but shwayze barked at me. and actually still keeps barking, but i'm not letting her out. the living room is like a war zone so i'm avoiding that area for awhile. ahha
oh so there were like 10 or so international students that came and like six of them were from Japan and three from France, and the one guy from France, well i caught him like awkwardly staring at me a lot. it was kind of unnerving, and i dont know what it means. but oh well. well i think that's basically it, i'll add more to another blog if i think of anything. i'm super tired. and have to buy my books tomorrow (well today since it is now 1:37 and neither of my roommates are back. such rebels we have school tomorrow ! like literally tomorrow as in tuesday not monday haha)
okay well goodnight :)
haha soo no blog um yesterday (saturday)
my bad.
but i had to pack my car, and drive to school, unpack my car, go to dinner with the lady in charge of peer mentoring, and well it was intense. i mean i was done dinner by 7, well done dinner and back in my apartment by 7. i was just feeling lazy. i thought about going to bed right away.
sad. i know.
but then i ended up watching house until 11.
kind of a bad idea since i had to get up at 7 this morning for peer mentoring. but whatever.
i couldn't sleep that well last night, and i'm going to guess Clayton came back at like 2:52 this morning. such a strange boy. but what can ya do.
so i was up at 7 this morning then.
arrived at school by like 7:50 and went to wait in campus security for all the transfer students, and first year students that were supposed to arrive, which was 14 in total. which i think is alot for spring. but what do i know, it was my first time around. haha
so the lady in charge of transferring in and such was there, she brought some donut holes, and some bagels, and orange juice.
i arrived at the same time as her actually, which i dont know if that was good or bad. but oh well.
so the other girl who was helping me, well actually i would say i was helping her, happened to be my peer mentor last semester! ahha. i really like her though, she's super nice. and funny. and then there was this guy who was helping us, he was basically there for the first year students though (even though there were only 3).
but he was super hilarious.
best part is, i met him at one of mike and clay's parties and he has talked to me at i think two of them before, and he didn't remember me, it was a great moment, since i knew exactly who he was. but what do you expect. he's a boy.
haha
so i think there were like 4 or 5 students out of the transfers that were staying on campus and the rest were commuters, so that was interesting.
and well we just did the regular orientation kind of thing. welcoming, induction, tour of the library, ITS, academic advising, and lunch somewhere in there. so those are the things i did at my orientation in three days. we did it in one. ahha amazing.
so it was really funny talking to some of the kids in my peer group. well since i'm like awkwardly shy. i was like okay i can do this, so i was like trying to talk to them and i would ask a question and they would answer it, and then they wouldn't say anything else. i mean i would have done that too if i was in there position, but still i was like i don't want them to think i'm this annoying person who keeps asking them loads of questions.
what's worse we were in one of the awkward silent pauses and one of the IAP (i think they are like international peer ambassadors, oh so there we go they should be IPA's ha, because we had like 10 international students doing some orientation stuff with us), well she was like HEY GUYS why dont you come join our table, we are super fun.
i was like. wow. i don't like you. i mean it was obvious that i was trying to do my job as a peer mentor. so annoying.
but the one kid was really nice, and he was like OH NO thanks we are having a super great conversation over here.
i was like oh jeez haha. but i thought it was nice of him to consider the fact that that girl just severely embarrassed me in front of three of my peer kids. so i like him. haha. i really appreciated that he did that.
and i totally thought my grandma told me that some kid was coming here in the spring, butttt i forget his name. soo he totally could have been in my group anddddddd i wouldn't have known. the thing is she told me he was like ridiculously tall and played basketball, and no one was ridiculously tall or played basketball. soo i guess he didn't come here, or my grandma got some wrong facts from her brother lol
anyways i hope the peer kids won't mind like saying hi to me if they ever see me. that would make me super happy! i mean they are my first group of peer kids. i just hope i dont forget their names...that would be awkward.
well i mostly talked to Cameron, Ben and Christine, so i'm pretty sure i got those three, and then some of the other ones shouldn't be hard to recognize. hopefully. haha
oh so it was funny, when all the peer kids were in their ITS meeting, Shikirra, Tom and I hung outside of the classroom waiting, and Tom seriously asked me like four times throughout the day, when i had transferred in and like a billion other questions. i was like alright Tom. haha then he asked about my roommates.

RIP Harvey.
my dog died today. well actually the vet put him to sleep :(
he was really sick, and i knew it was a matter of time, but i still wasn't prepared.
really sad.
but i am going to talk about happy memories about him.
First. i was the one who named him.
remember Sabrina the Teenage Witch? well i was obsessed with that show, and Harvey from there, i totes loved him and his name. so i named my dog after him.
yup.
Secondly, the first time we went to pick out a puppy at my brothers (then) friends house, since his dog just had a litter, well i held harvey in my arms until he fell asleep.
probably the cutest thing that had every happened to me.
Thirdly, during the winter time we used to wear hats, and Harvey used to chases us down jump on us and steal our hats. he wouldn't ever give them back either.
it was horrible, but at the same time insanely hilarious.
FOurth, my brother used to walk my dog to the field, to potty train him you know, and well he would run back to the house, but Harvey thought it was like a race, and he would run as fast as he could back, he would also sometimes tackle my brother, also hilarious.
He also used to smell anyone and everyone's butts, that was his way of greeting i guess. it was ridiculous though that even after living with us for so long he still would smell our butt. so silly.
as a puppy he would jump on everyone too, trying to lick their faces.
he was a crazy puppy, but a good dog, once we sort of trained him.
and he was SO BIG. but he thought for so long that he was still a puppy and he would try to crawl into your lap for a few years.
i still actually remember the first day we brought him home even.
he was crying in the back of the car for his mom. it was really sad.
sigh.
i'm going miss him. i didn't even get to say goodbye.
the vet wouldn't let that happen.
and you know what's sad. when i heard my brothers crying in their room, saddest thing ever. it hurt me to hear them hurting. :(
i think i've cried the most this week than i have in so long.
what's even sadder. i cried more for my dog than i did when my exboyfriend broke up with me. (well actually i never even cried when he broke up with me...girl power.)
what does this say about who i am?
i'm not really sure. and at this moment in time, i don't think i care.
this has basically been the worst winter break of my entire life.
and i don't want to go back to school tomorrow.
i.just.dont.
sigh. i need to go to sleep. it's going to be a long day tomorrow :/
thanks for reading my stories about my puppy.

year of no fear.
“ New year, New beginnings. 2010 the year of no fear. In the moments in life where we think that we got it all figured out, something happens and we realize we don’t. Nothing is ever set in stone. Love is never free determined. Live your life with optimism, live your life, knowing that your potential is so much greater than you can even comprehend yourself”

thanks Nicholas. you are awesome :)
— Nicholas Jonas
thanks Nicholas. you are awesome :)
thanks to Joe i now have "MOJO JOJO" stuck in my head. what a weirdo
well i woke up this morning thinking today is going to be a better day. then my brother called me and told me my computer's graphic card in the motherboard was broken, and it would cost $400 to send out or my brothers friend could fix it for $270.
i was like.
i hate my computer so much.
then decided i couldn't afford either, and that i'll just use the computers at school.
then i called my dad and told him what was wrong and such, and he told me as a parent he would pay for it, since it was his responsibility. or something of that sort. i was like umm okay.
then he told me the quote of the day
"don't sweat the small stuff. sweat the big stuff instead"
haha.
i dont know who originated the first half of the quote, but i'm pretty sure my dad originated the second half.
anyways my day looked significantly better after that. it was a relief, even though my computer wont' be ready for pry like two weeks, i might be able to get a loaner! celebrate!
woo.
but i decided i need to get two jobs at school, one through the school, that only lets me work five hours a week, and another one somewhere close that i can work more and actually work more than five hours a week.
and this summer i am going to find a good job, and save basically all the money for rent for next semester, a new computer, and one GIANT shopping trip, or a concert maybe. idk.
oh and i got this weird email yesterday from UPS apparently, saying that i had a package waiting for me that couldn't be delivered. now i KNOW i didn't order anything recently. because i'm broke.
and i highly doubt someone sent me something without telling me if i didnt' mention it after awhile.
and it has something attached but i can't open it.
after i tried i thought that it could be a virus.
cause i'm dumb enough not to think of that until after i try.
i dont know. if it's legit i want to know what it is. if it's not i'm annoyed.
so i'll pry never know what it is. and it'll never get delivered and it will stay there forever.
or my family computer will get a virus.
its pretty obvious computers dont really like me.
besides that last night i decided to read twilight again. it's kind of weird reading it again. i dont know why. ahha but it is.
i'm thinking about reading harry potter again though. it's been awhile.
i think that's basically it. going to start packing/cleaning my room.
even though i dont' really want to.
yup.
okay byeee

when the morning comes
So i'm pretty much have the worst day, i've had in awhile.
First of all this month has been really stressful already.
i had to find a guitar case, which i did thankfully.
Then my computer decided it hated me, and didnt want to turn on. so now i'm pretty much freaking out about that, and i hope it's nothing serious, because there is no way i can afford a new computer. I just can't, especially now that i'm really freaking out about rent. It seems every paycheck i get once i start working again is automatically going to my rent fund. just for future months. i plan ahead.
but since i came home for winter break i kind of forgot that i still had to pay rent, and when i went up there new years eve, i was like hmm maybe i should leave my rent check. but then i didn't
and then i forgot about it.
until i got a call today from the lady who works for (or maybe is married to?) the landowner and she was like why hasn't your rent check arrived yet, and i was like dang.it. and right away i knew i was going to have to pay a penalty, and for some reason i suspected a $200 one. and i almost started crying right then. but then she was like let me talk to him and see what will happen. so then i made lunch, and mike texted me and told me the landowner was threatening to change the locks since i didn't pay my rent yet.
yeah. he was going to change the stupid locks.
i was like oh great, but i'm glad mike told me, he's a really good roommate.
i wish we would have become better friends last semester. maybe this semester?
anyways so i made lunch, and started to eat it, then my landowner called, and started talking really sternly to me. told me the rent check was 8 days later. that's a $200 fee (weird that i guessed it would be that). and basically he made me feel really small and like a piece of dirt. so then i think he realized he was pry going to make me cry and he told me he would give me a discount. a big $50 off. woohoo. :I
although i am really glad he did that.
but now my rent money has greatly depleted, and after i hung up with him i cried. for like thirty minutes. then i mailed my check and cried some more.
and now i'm pretty sure i'm going to avoid my landowner the rest of the time i live there, and i've decided i'm not staying there again.
i just can't.
i don't know where i'll stay next semester, but it's not going to be there.
and i also decided i'm really mad at my school for not having a dorm room for me. i mean it's just not fair that out of everyone they made me live off campus. i mean Mike is splendid and Clayton isn't that bad, and i'm sure they've helped me grow in ways that i wouldn't have been able to in a dorm room, but i just dont' think it's fair. if anything they should offer me a dorm room like next year for free. that would be the fair thing to do. but what do they care. and it's a little late to confront them about it now.
not like i'm the confronting type.
and well i was ready to go back to school before, but now i'm not.
but i don't really want to stay home either. i just want to go on vacation to somewhere really cool. Like California.
who needs school?
well i do need school, but that's beside the point, i just need a break from life.
and i'm REALLY angry at my old work. i worked there for two years and they didn't even have the decency to call me back and tell me that they didn't need me to come work for them. I mean i would have understood.
and i really needed a job this winter, i hate this economy, it's just not good.
and i need a better job at school. i'm going to have to find one.
and i'm mad at myself for when i did have a job, not putting as much away in savings as i should have, and buying things i really DIDN'T need. but it's too late now.
oh it's also safe to say after i got the phone call i was no longer hungry. so i threw out the lunch i only took two bites out of. what a waste of food, but there was no way i was going to be able to eat it.
so after i freaked out and cried and stressed out some more
Joe tweeted a video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJKythlXAIY
not like i could hear anything they were saying, but i enjoyed it. and the fact that the song was called "This Too Shall Pass" made me feel like Joe knew what i was going through. creepy.
and then Jeremy (from days difference) tweeted a pick up line
Is your father a baker? Cause you're a cutie pie! - An original pickup line by Jeremy William Smith
and well i laughed because of them and the day didnt' seem so bad, and then Holly twitpiced a picture to me and that's the quote of the day :)
"When you're faced with a difficult situation, just remember that you are never given a burden you can't handle. So, basically you are never given anything that you're not going to get through. Not right away will you find a solution, but just remember, that you WILL make it through. BE STRONG."
and those things made me feel slightly better, but not as good as i was feeling yesterday when Dave finally responded after 5 days.
but whatever.
i responded to him today, half before the phonecall half after. so i'm pretty sure my tone changes greatly. but he's a boy and he pry wont' notice so whatever.
i need to go do something productive.
bye.

i was like oh great, but i'm glad mike told me, he's a really good roommate.
i wish we would have become better friends last semester. maybe this semester?
anyways so i made lunch, and started to eat it, then my landowner called, and started talking really sternly to me. told me the rent check was 8 days later. that's a $200 fee (weird that i guessed it would be that). and basically he made me feel really small and like a piece of dirt. so then i think he realized he was pry going to make me cry and he told me he would give me a discount. a big $50 off. woohoo. :I
although i am really glad he did that.
but now my rent money has greatly depleted, and after i hung up with him i cried. for like thirty minutes. then i mailed my check and cried some more.
and now i'm pretty sure i'm going to avoid my landowner the rest of the time i live there, and i've decided i'm not staying there again.
i just can't.
i don't know where i'll stay next semester, but it's not going to be there.
and i also decided i'm really mad at my school for not having a dorm room for me. i mean it's just not fair that out of everyone they made me live off campus. i mean Mike is splendid and Clayton isn't that bad, and i'm sure they've helped me grow in ways that i wouldn't have been able to in a dorm room, but i just dont' think it's fair. if anything they should offer me a dorm room like next year for free. that would be the fair thing to do. but what do they care. and it's a little late to confront them about it now.
not like i'm the confronting type.
and well i was ready to go back to school before, but now i'm not.
but i don't really want to stay home either. i just want to go on vacation to somewhere really cool. Like California.
who needs school?
well i do need school, but that's beside the point, i just need a break from life.
and i'm REALLY angry at my old work. i worked there for two years and they didn't even have the decency to call me back and tell me that they didn't need me to come work for them. I mean i would have understood.
and i really needed a job this winter, i hate this economy, it's just not good.
and i need a better job at school. i'm going to have to find one.
and i'm mad at myself for when i did have a job, not putting as much away in savings as i should have, and buying things i really DIDN'T need. but it's too late now.
oh it's also safe to say after i got the phone call i was no longer hungry. so i threw out the lunch i only took two bites out of. what a waste of food, but there was no way i was going to be able to eat it.
so after i freaked out and cried and stressed out some more
Joe tweeted a video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJKythlXAIY
not like i could hear anything they were saying, but i enjoyed it. and the fact that the song was called "This Too Shall Pass" made me feel like Joe knew what i was going through. creepy.
and then Jeremy (from days difference) tweeted a pick up line
Is your father a baker? Cause you're a cutie pie! - An original pickup line by Jeremy William Smith
and well i laughed because of them and the day didnt' seem so bad, and then Holly twitpiced a picture to me and that's the quote of the day :)
"When you're faced with a difficult situation, just remember that you are never given a burden you can't handle. So, basically you are never given anything that you're not going to get through. Not right away will you find a solution, but just remember, that you WILL make it through. BE STRONG."
and those things made me feel slightly better, but not as good as i was feeling yesterday when Dave finally responded after 5 days.
but whatever.
i responded to him today, half before the phonecall half after. so i'm pretty sure my tone changes greatly. but he's a boy and he pry wont' notice so whatever.
i need to go do something productive.
bye.

The Motions- Matthew West
So i went to the eye doctors yesterday, and i have my nails painted lime green, and when i was covering my one eye he saw my nails and he was like WOAH BRIGHT NAILS! i was like. hahah yeah...
it was really awkward but funny.
i really like my eye doctor though, he's always really nice :)
and i got a prescription for new glasses, but my dad said glasses are expensive, so i guess i wont' be getting hem for awhile. sigh. i was really excited about getting new glasses too. oh well.
watched Chuck, and Heroes last night. i must say Chuck is one of my new favorite shows! it's hilarious and spy-rific :)
then since we no longer have cable in my house, i was flipping through channels and found this Christian channel. it's called JCTV and they did a countdown for the top ten videos of this month? or last year.. i'm not sure since the host said both of those things. but she wasnt that enthusiastic. but i def found a lot of new songs and artists to check out. if they turn out to be pretty awesome i'll let you know :)
well i need to go to target to buy some stuff before i head back to school. i'm feeling lazy though. and dont' feel like going but i really should.
i also need to call my grandma.
hmm. and my brother never told me when his friend is going to look at my computer. it's already tuesday.
sigh.
soo quote of the day
"Do not worry about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus"
-Philippians 4:6-7
anddd now i need to do my lunch dishes. and go to target?

"WATSON!"
Sorry i didn't write yesterday. i know my resolution was to write once a day. I just dont' feel comfortable writing when my mom could walk by at any time. since i have to use the downstairs family computer...
anyways yesterday i went to see Sherlock Holmes with my little brother. It was really good. The only thing is i kept thinking about how Sherlock Holmes is an older guy, I mean he really shouldn't be as awesome as Robert Downey Jr. and i never pictured Watson as awesome as Jude Law. but it's cool, it was still really good, lots of intense action. :)
I also watched some snowboarding competitions, no worries Shaun White is going to the Olympics again! haha and Gretchen Bleiler.
the thing is about watching all these "getting ready for the Olympics and who will be on the Olympics team" is i wish i could do all those sports. i want to speed skate, snowboard, figure skate and maybe luge.. haha :)
so intense.
anyways i have an eye doctors appointment today.
it's time to finally get new glasses. i can actually say i'm SUPER excited. it's been over three years since i've gotten new ones, and just in time for me to go back to school. although they pry won't be ready before i go back to school. but i'm still excited :D
so quote of the day.
Saturday:
"Individuals Play the game, but teams win championships"
-Anonymous
Sunday:
"No Jesus, No Peace. Know Jesus, Know Peace"- I'm pretty sure i saw that as a bumper sticker one time.
Today:
you get two because i love you guys :)
"The past is history,
The future is a mystery,
Today is a gift,
That's why we call it the present"
-no idea where i heard this one either.
"Bad company ruins Good moral"
-1 Corinthians 15:33
oh yeah and did you guys hear about NickJ getting mugged on stage...oh right he wasn't mugged just attacked by billions of teenies jumping on stage.
poor kid.
and to think i could have been there to witness it in person. if only i wasnt severely broke...
haha
oh well i think i would have been embarrassed to be there anyway. i mean all those stupid people jumping on stage. sigh.
well i have to go do the dishes that i used for lunch.
and find out where my dog seems to have run off to. he can't have gone far since he isn't feeling that well..
later peeps
much love.

i'm not saying, i'm just saying
today i took like an hour nap with some waking up and going back to sleep before and after. it was nice. i also slept through 6 tweets that were sent to my phone so i was out cold. haha.
also i fell asleep while watching the All-American football game it was interesting to see who all were the best players in the US this/last year. it was cool. then i fell asleep ahha.
i'm still waiting for my brothers' friend to look at my computer. i'm starting to wonder if he'll ever look at it. i really need him to, i mean i go back to school next saturday... sigh.
oohh so today i helped my cousins and two of their friends buy tickets to see Selena! then i told them basically everything i know about meeting celebrities and such. it was kind of funny. i'm sure they'll have a good time. and they will pry find her. and be creepy..
just sayin'
haha :)
uh no quote of the day today my family is all around and could walk by at any second and i dont' really want them to read this blog, well more specifically my mom or dad, just because it'd be weird. sooo two quotes tomorrow? or maybe three on monday?

laugh til you can't laugh no more.
...
so it's snowing :)
it looks pretty right now, but i dread how cold it must be outside.
well it doesn't matter how cold it is outside because my house IS FREEZING.
yup.
so yesterday night i finally went and got a guitar case!
the place i went had all of these SUPER cool looking guitar picks and i was like oh man i want all of these colors! haha! but i bought some purple ones :)
I am excited to try them out :D
anddd at the store they had of these music books where you can learn how to play certain musicians books.
they even had a twilight and new moon soundtrack music book!
i laughed. and then secretly wanted it so i could learn how to play supermassive black hole..
haha :D
I also feel like a stalker. so remember how i met that kid at the wedding. well i added him as a friend on facebook because my friend (and her entire family basically) insisted that i do.
well he accepted my friend request.
THEN SENT ME A MESSAGE.
i kind of freaked out a little bit.
i mean first i was like oh my gosh he sent me a message, and i really didnt want to read it.
then i started laughing hysterically and i read it and responded and basically still laugh everytime i think about it.
it's just too funny.
he's so nice.
it kills me.
and well since i creeped on his page and saw he really liked the movie terminator salvation so i decided i would go watch that movie since my brother owns it.
and i have to say i'm not a big fan.
i mean Sam Worthington is really hot. especially in that movie. and i like Christian Bale but since i've never really watched a Terminator movie before it was kind of confusing.
but it had a lot of action. so at least i was entertained.
haha
oh and i know he looked at my information because he asked me about one of the bands i like.
yup.
hahaha.
soweird.
so here's the quote of the day
"Is any pleasure on earth as great as a circle of Christian friends by a fire?"
-C.S. Lewis.
i wish i had a fire right now.
so cold.
well i think i'll go curl up in my bed and watch a movie or something. at least it's warm upstairs.
have a good day guys :)

THE PHONE. THE PHONE IS RINGING.
well in a series of unfortunate events MY stupid laptop will no longer turn on.
oh happiness.
and this is why i couldn't blog yesterday. i am in fact very angry.
it was working fine yesterday before i went to hang out with my bfffffff. then i came back and it would not turn on.
I in turn wanted to cry.
i also wanted to yell at it, but the fact that everyone in my house was sleeping made me not do it.
so now i have to buy a guitar case and find out what the freak is wrong with my STUPID laptop.
sigh.
anyways in other news i hung out with the biffle yesterday :) haven't seen her all break so it was nice, we went to walmart and target, and in target we read the where's waldo books. haha.
then we went to her house and her nephew was there, he's super adorbs and we watched some very interesting childrens shows.
AKA. Wonderpets (THE PHONE. THE PHONE IS RINGING) Dora The Explorer!, Go, Diego, Go! (did you know Jake Austin is the voice of Diego! gasp! shocking i know) and some Spongebob.
it was intense.
we also exchanged gifts.
:)
she gave me The Last Song- the book by Nicholas Sparks, and i read it already...all last night that is. haha it's amazing and i love it :)
she also got me a shirt, a rolling stone bag with Jonas on it and a bracelet sort of like Jac Vanek that says Catch Me :)
it was awesome :D
i also got an email about who the transfer people are going to be this spring. there is ten of them.
and now i'm nervous hah.
it's going to be me, my one peer mentor, and this other kid who came to all of my roomies parties and has talked to me at them before. i only know his name because i'm kind of creepy and i find out everyone's names hahaha.
oh well.
so yeah he pry wont' remember me (hopefully) but it will still be very interesting.
i really want to email all the new kids and tell them they can add me as a friend on facebook, but it's weird and i really should ask Shikirra (my peer mentor, now co-peer mentor) if that's alright. so maybe i'll do that tomorrow...
yup.
lets see what else.
oh i'm officially going to look at guitar cases for the third time. and in the fourth store tonight.
it shall be interesting.
i really would like to purchase one tonight..i mean i'm running out of time. which reminds me i have practiced in like two weeks...
oh boy.
cullen isnt going to be happy.
and i feel like i should be doing something productive since that's what i've been doing all week. but i'm just not feeling it today.
i'm sad my computer isn't working.
sigh.
perhaps i'll go try and clean my closet out, well clothing for like the fourth time this month.
...
well quote of the day FOR YESTERDAY.
"Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have." 1 Peter 3:15
oh by the way my friend told me to friend Dave on facebook. the kid from the wedding.
she said her sister (the one who married Dave's brother) said i should do it.
so i did.
i would laugh if he denied it.
yup.
so anyways i pry wont' be able to blog tonight, since i have no idea what's wrong with my computer. so he's the quote of the day for today
"Irish Blessing
May the road rise
to meet you,
May the winds be always
at your back,
May the sun shine warm
upon your face,
The rains fall soft
upon your fields,
And until we meet again
May God hold you in the hollow
of his hand."
thatisall.
love <3

"Rawr" that means i love you in dinosaur.
the cherry poppin' daddies
haha so i hope you watch that and notice how the lead singer dances. he made me laugh so much, the entire time i watched them i couldnt' help but tap my foot and smile :)
also the keyboardist. he kept making these outrageous faces that i completely enjoyed haha :)
so my roommates contacted me for the first time today in about a month. okay three weeks haha.
Mike texted me earlier telling me he got a brita water filter for the apartment lol
and that he got a George Foreman grill for Christmas.
he just makes me laugh.
then later he facebook messaged me and clayton about the comcast bill.
made me want to cry a bit. i mean it wasn't like i have to pay the entire thing since we split it, but still i'm trying to make sure i have enough for rent...well rent in like april.
you know i plan ahead.
anywayssssss
my cousin texted me today.
he's 16, and he loves Selena Gomez.
the first time we talked about it, i thought i could never love him more, and then he told me disney wasn't too bad.
I was like.
new.favorite.cousin.
yup.
haha. he wanted me to go with him to see Selena on Valentines day.
i so wish i could go, but sadly i have school the next day. class at 8 am, and the venue is an hour from my house. which would be like two and a half hours from school.
at least i'm pretty sure it would be like that.
so yeah. the concert would be at 6, and i figured 8 ish it would end because i have no idea how long she would perform and such.
so i would have to drop my cousin off at home that would be like 9, then by the time i got to my apartment it would almost be 11.
and this is all if there isn't that much traffic, or snow, or whatever happening.
so yeah. i want to say i can TOTALLY take that chance. but school is really important to me, and well Selena Gomez...not so much..haha.
i mean i like her and i wouldn't mind seeing how she performed live, but i would be much happier to do well in school. :)
so instead i'll teach my cousin everything i know about concerts,
and all about the information i have received (thanks holly btw :) )
and hope for the best that he meets her, and they fall in love, and somehow Selena decides that i'm cool enough to meet some of her cool hollywood friends ;)
hahah.
and then i will be eternally grateful to my cousin, but in reality he will be eternally grateful to me for teaching him everything i know.
SO in ACTUAL REALITY it all works out!! ahha
see that. that would be awesome.
but anyways i'm going over to my cousin's house Saturday to help him buy tickets. his friend is going to go with him apparently. i'm very interested in finding out who this friend is. and i'm sure they'll have a great time. i will just make my cousin call me the next day and tell me EVERYTHINGGGGGG.
he also should take pictures. although most of his friends would pry make fun of him if he posted them on facebook so i'll just make him show me them next time i see him after that.
haha.
oh young love.
the things we do for the bands we love.
:)
i mean seriously. i look at my summer last year and i'm thinking dang. i was busy. lol
but thats awesome because i'll ALWAYS remember them :)
yays.
so if you can't tell i'm much happier today.
it could be because i got 12 hours of sleep...
yup.
or that i get to see my best friend tomorrow.
yup.
:)
anyways i was thinking of doing a quote of the day kind of thing.
but since we all know that after a few weeks i forget to keep doing that (example "smile of the day" yeah...) i'll just try my best. ...
haha
ready
"For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs all." - 2 Corinthians 4:17.
well time for bed! good night. sleep tight, dont' let the bed bugs BITE.
rawr.
P.S. i would totally love to find a guy who would say rawr to me, you know when the time is right. because that would be epic :)
haha so i hope you watch that and notice how the lead singer dances. he made me laugh so much, the entire time i watched them i couldnt' help but tap my foot and smile :)

so yeah. the concert would be at 6, and i figured 8 ish it would end because i have no idea how long she would perform and such.
so i would have to drop my cousin off at home that would be like 9, then by the time i got to my apartment it would almost be 11.
and this is all if there isn't that much traffic, or snow, or whatever happening.
so yeah. i want to say i can TOTALLY take that chance. but school is really important to me, and well Selena Gomez...not so much..haha.
i mean i like her and i wouldn't mind seeing how she performed live, but i would be much happier to do well in school. :)
so instead i'll teach my cousin everything i know about concerts,
and all about the information i have received (thanks holly btw :) )
and hope for the best that he meets her, and they fall in love, and somehow Selena decides that i'm cool enough to meet some of her cool hollywood friends ;)
hahah.
and then i will be eternally grateful to my cousin, but in reality he will be eternally grateful to me for teaching him everything i know.
SO in ACTUAL REALITY it all works out!! ahha
see that. that would be awesome.
but anyways i'm going over to my cousin's house Saturday to help him buy tickets. his friend is going to go with him apparently. i'm very interested in finding out who this friend is. and i'm sure they'll have a great time. i will just make my cousin call me the next day and tell me EVERYTHINGGGGGG.
he also should take pictures. although most of his friends would pry make fun of him if he posted them on facebook so i'll just make him show me them next time i see him after that.
haha.
oh young love.
the things we do for the bands we love.
:)
i mean seriously. i look at my summer last year and i'm thinking dang. i was busy. lol
but thats awesome because i'll ALWAYS remember them :)
yays.
so if you can't tell i'm much happier today.
it could be because i got 12 hours of sleep...
yup.
or that i get to see my best friend tomorrow.
yup.
:)
anyways i was thinking of doing a quote of the day kind of thing.
but since we all know that after a few weeks i forget to keep doing that (example "smile of the day" yeah...) i'll just try my best. ...
haha
ready
"For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs all." - 2 Corinthians 4:17.
well time for bed! good night. sleep tight, dont' let the bed bugs BITE.
rawr.
P.S. i would totally love to find a guy who would say rawr to me, you know when the time is right. because that would be epic :)

the way you make me feel
so i'm sitting here crying in my room because i just watched the clip of Kevin and Danielle's wedding from Access Hollywood, on youtube.
Danielle is ridiculously lucky.
Kevin is such a great guy.
and this is the video that made me cry
i dont' know what's wrong with me today, i just feel like crying.
I mean first of all i watched five episodes of heroes (three from before the midseason finale, and two that were on tonight for the start of the second half of the season) and i cried during the one, and ALMOST cried during another.
and well i normally dont' cry while watchign tv shoes or movies unless it's Remember The Titans, that movie made me cry, still does usually, and the Guardian i bawled watching that one, oh my gosh and P.S. I Love You, yup that one makes me cry too, but besides that not normally...
i don't know i guess it's whatever.
i pulled myself together by watching Nick sing "the way you make me feel"
(yup thanks holly for those videos :) it helps that Nick can always put me back together when i dont even know i need it) so yeah i'm no longer crying. just feeling sentimental, and kind of sad.
lets get these feelings out ready.go:
okay so it's not like i feel like i need a man, i mean when my time is right God will send this amazingly great guy in my direction and i'll be surprised but that's when i will know the time is right.
it's just i get impatient, because i am a romantic at heart.
it's true.
and i read all of these romance based books and watch all those movies and it kind of makes my heart ache.
i just want to find that love.
that perfect love.
i mean i get that things aren't perfect, but you know i really think love is.
if you find the right person to spend the rest of your life with. it's right there.
it's golden.
i'm just waiting. rather impatiently.
AND DUDE I'M ONLY 20. why am i even thinking about this.
i have so much time... well unless God wants me to die, but idk i don't think i fulfilled my purpose on earth yet.
but anyways i'll be 21 in less than six months.
i graduate college next year.
when does love happen?
well when you least expect it most of the time.
blah.
i don't know.
i guess i'm just being...weird.
i don't know.
does anyone else get these feelings?
actually you know what it is.
it's the fact that i barely slept last night.
i went over to babysit my friends ADORABLE daughter, while my friend went and partied it up with her stupid boyfriend, whom i dislike greatly, and some other people
it's a good thing i adore her daughter or i would have been annoyed.
although i did volunteer.
but the thing is she didn't come home until like 11:30 this morning.
i was like...what if i actually had somewhere to be? she told me she would be home early in the morning, in fact she was thinking pry like 5 in the morning or so cause she said she would sleep downstairs as to not wake anyone up.
but she didn't even come home.
sigh. i just want her to clean her act up.
some of the things her mom told me last night and this morning, they just made me feel so sad for her daughter, it's just not fair for her. but that's why i'm going to be sure i stick around.
that little girl is going to need some good influences in her life, and hello i'll be in the top ten.
oh wow that sounded conceited.
but what can i say her mother is a mess.
goodness.
well anyways i got there at like 6:30 yesterday and played with Livi, she's so adorable and so happy, seriously i got there and if you laugh she starts to laugh because she wants to be a part of whatever you are laughing at.
it's the cutest thing ever.
plus it's fun having an excuse to play with toys again :)
and she has this cool inflatable ball pit.
seriously. i want one.
it's incredibly tempting to go play in it. haha.
so i played with Livi for awhile her mom left at like 9 so i got livi ready for bed.
my friends mom gave livi her bedtime bottle then we talked about different things for over an hour.
then i went into my friends room and watched the disney channel. oh how i missed that channel.
oh how i miss cable in general.
i stayed up til like 1:30 reading then.
i kept expecting livi to wake up but she didn't until around 6:30 in the morning which everyone said was unusual for her.
so i didn't get much sleep.
at 6:30 i made her a bottle, changed her diaper and tried to put her back into her bed but she wouldnt' go so i just let her sleep in the bed with me. haha.
no biggie she was adorable and she didn't move that much, and she was playing with my hand while she was falling asleep, it was adorable.
yes adorable. ahha everything about her is adorable.
so i would say i got about 4 1/2 hours of sleep.
it's shocking i'm still functioning.
i went home at 1.
ate, worked out, read, then took a shower and caught up on MLIA for two hours.
it was relaxing.
and now i'm starting to realize how tired i am.
i need to sleep
so dont' mind my random rant about love above. it has to do with lack of sleep.
as does my crying, i'm sure.
goodness.
well goodnight all much love.
Danielle is ridiculously lucky.
Kevin is such a great guy.

this time i'll try to take pictures haha.
it was really cold today.
the high was like 23. well at least that i saw.
AND.
it was windy. which made it even COLDER. brrrrrrr.
and then it started to flurry.
it was insane.
also went to church today at the other church my mom likes.
saw all the kids i graduated with that go there.
and then there was Lucas Scott.
i kind of think he is awesome.
first of all because in high school he went to bible study and i really liked how he didn't mind talking about his faith.
secondly he's really attractive
and thirdly i just love his name. it reminds me of One Tree Hill and the character that Chad Michael Murray plays, Lucas Scott.
haha yup
so when i first heard about the Luke Scott i know of i was like THAT NAME IS AWESOME.
too bad he's never talked to me, or i, him.
it happens. i guess.
also tried to find a guitar case.
i'm just really bad at it.
wish i knew what kind would be good to get.
sigh.
well going to get ready to go babysit :)

:)
soo it's January Second :)
i go back to school in 14 days.
ugh...
haha.
anyways. i uploaded two videos from Hershey, both the HS ones.
i'll upload the Cherry Poppin' Daddies one tomorrow.
ahha.
Dont' Close the Book w/speech included:
Use Somebody:
there we go :)
i uploaded some of my favorite pictures from that night onto twitpic. so be sure to check those out if you want haha
so it getting a lot colder out. tomorrow is only going to be in the twenties.
that makes me want to curl up in a ball and not leave my bed.
like seriously. brrr..
i also realized that i haven't seen my best friend all break. and she goes back a week before me.
uh there's something wrong there.
PLUS her christmas present is sitting in my room..all lonely.
so we need to change that.
also you know how i was supposed to hang out with my mom's friend and her daughter/my friend. well that didn't happen. my friend was skiing, and her mom just got back from a friends house and had to work or something. i was actually really sad. i was so looking forward to seeing her, it's been over a year. seriously, i only see her like once a year.
oh yeah my New years resolution...
well i didn't make one yesterday...
because i forgot. haha.
but i want it to be that i blog more often so that i don't have to update for like two weeks worth of happenings.
i also want to work out at least twice a week. at least being key there.
i just know that after i work out i feel a lot better about myself and i think that's really important.
and lastly, i want to try and be nicer about things that happen.
sometimes i just get really emotional really fast, and well i want to be able to step back and take a deep breath before i act on a situation.
i wanna be more like nick jonas.
;)
anyways. those are basically my resolutions.
i really want to stick with them.
and i have thought about starting to apply for summer jobs already.
too soon?
ALSO Nick's cd comes out in a month.
i'm so shocked.
it flew by. and i'm super excited :)
plus his first show was tonight. can't wait to hear about all the details (Holly!)
and like always there is controversy about who is at nick's concert.
people said Demi was there, but she just tweeted saying she was at home on the couch, watching Lord Of the Rings.
so weird.
of course people also said Miley and Selena are there.
but who really knows about that.
all i know is Chelsea and Joe are for certain there..well were.
haha.
oh the drama that goes with Jonas.
if i didnt love them for their music, it almost wouldn't be worth it.
so instead i'll just ignore the drama, it doesn't really pertain to me anyways, and i hate being so interested in it. I mean i have my own life. and even though i'm not a celebrity i think it's a pretty good life.
haha.
well i'm going to go read :)
or watch SNL.
whatever.
bahah laterrrrrr
i go back to school in 14 days.

Friday, January 1, 2010
woah what? it's 2010?
haha gasp! where does the time go. i can't even believe it.
okay. yes i can but seriously.
so where to start...where to start...
wellllll
yesterday around 3 pm. left my house with my dad and headed to Hershey.
we got some gas, and some batteries and then we were on our way :)
of course it was kind of icky out. i mean it looked like it was going to rain. which really wasn't exciting.
at all.
so we got there around five.
actually earlier yesterday i found out that they were having a meet and greet "across the street" from where they were performing.
and originally i thought they were performing in Hershey Park, because that's what made sense to me. but when we got to Hershey one road was blocked off and it turns out that they actually do New Years Eve in the middle of the road on Chocolate Avenue. which was actually really cool!.
but anyways. so their meet and greet was in Hershey Theater, this old grand looking building. so my dad and i got in line. (my dad was more excited than i was...haha just kidding, but wouldn't that be hilarious)
so we were waiting in line. OUTSIDE. and it was really cold. and the line wasn't going that fast. and we were near the end. but it didn't matter because at least i was there :)
then i found out you had to buy something to meet them, i kind of really hate that they make you do that, it's basically an obvious way to make more money. and even though i feel like honor society wouldn't have it that way if they didnt' have to, it's just really annoying. since i'm pretty broke already. you know? and when i got there they only had shirts left, so it's not even like i could be cheap and only buy a poster. but those things happen i guess.
anyways had my shirt in hand. watched Ned chat amicably with some people. made me laugh. oh Ned.
Finally caught glimpse of Michael. i'm not really sure why i saw him first out of all of them, especially since i was still near the doors but i did. i was like woo! and i tried to not act like i was SUPER excited!
so to bide my time i people watched. and let me tell you some fans are just...insane.
a lot of girls were there in tights and skirts, and i was like wow are you dumb. i mean i know you are trying to impress them and all but it's freezing outside, and they probably will just think you are dumb, even if they think you dressed nicely.
i mean i wore a lot of layers ahha.
but you know what i was def warmer than those girls were, and that's all that matters to me :)
so finally got up there to meet them at like 5:45 and well i'm always not that great around celebrities. i mean i've met them a few times now but i'm still like what do i say that will make me seem like just a normal fan, not an insane one.
so i just said hi.
hahaha.
first was Jason, he said hey and something about the new year and staying warm. and signed my shirt.
then was Alex he was signing the girls shirt in front of me and the end of his sharpie flew off and hit Michael and it was kind of hilarious. :)
so when i got to Alex he was like oh man so sorry about that, because he bent over to try and find the cap and i stood there awkwardly for a bit haha. and i was just like haha it's fine. and he signed my shirt and said somethign about new years haha obviously i dont' recall anything that they actually really said when i met them...
Then was Michael i'm pretty sure he said Hey whats' up? and i responded not much you .
haha.
then he said something about new years eve. and signed my shirt
then was Andrew and i am absolutely certain that he told me to stay warm lol.
and he signed my shirt.
afterwards i realized i should have been like HAND HUGS!
but you know it doesn't matter :)
so now i have a shirt signed by them. which is pretty cool. we also weren't really allowed to take pictures "behind the line" like once you got up to the table. which i find creepy anyways. it's like oh HEY LET ME TAKE YOUR PICTURES RIGHT HERE AWKWARDLY FROM THE OTHER SIDE OF THE TABLE WHEN IT'S JUST YOU.
so that was cool.
then my dad and i headed to my apartment to get dinner and set up stuff for the night, it was actually really nice having my apartment like twenty minutes away because of beign able to stay there overnight for free.
and it was pretty sweet because the heat was still on!
but it was kind of weird because when we got there it looked like someone has been staying there. like they just left for new years eve or something. which was really weird. because there were like 10 glasses in the sink (seriously. i was like come on who did that, how hard is it to wash a freaking glass...sigh) and someone left the light on in the living room. so the electric bill will lovingly be super high. boys *shakes head*
oh also by this time it had started to rain.
yeah.
so we went and got subway, ate, then changed into some warmer clothing.
and headed back to Chocolate Ave.
got there aroudn 7:30 i would say, parked, put feet warmers inside my shoes, they worked really well for awhile.
Headed to where the stage was, mostly just by following people since i had no idea where it was actually taking place..
but it was easily found :)
got a decent spot, again my dad couldn't hold in his excitement ;)
so it got pretty wet, pretty fast, and pretty cold, broke out the one handwarmer while the backstage helper people (Brett and Pete?) set up the stage, and i was trying to open up the other one when Honor Society came out, and i was like woah they are like an hour early.
turns out it was only soundcheck ! haha
BUT. i finally attended a soundcheck party and it was awesome :D
they played Over you and Two Rebels.
it was really fun.
My dad didnt really know what to do, but i'm pretty sure he liked their music. not like he will now go become obsessed with them, but he said when we were heading to the apartment, afterward, that he thought that they were kind of like Fall Out Boy, he also said that it was interesting how they would like start a song rocking out and then you listen to the lyrics and they aren't like rocking out kind of lyrics.
haha. which is so true. but i told him it makes it even better :D
so soundcheck ended. chilled some more. it got colder.
waited and waited and waited. more people showed up, was trying to find Hannah and Kenny (the guy who drove the bus for Jonas!!!) but i couldn't find them so that was kind of a bummer but it happens.
then finally Honor Society came back out.
they started off with Full Moon Crazy,
and well ALEX wasn't wearing a jacket, seriously. he had on a short sleeved shirt and i was like oh my gosh Alex it's freaking like 30 degrees out and raining and you have no coat on.
he's insane.
but he totally rocked the drums last night :) it was awesome. Even my dad was impressed. he was like wow watch the drummer! i was like haha i know :) Alex rocks. of course it's always hard to see Alex because we were standing in the middle and Michael always stands right in front of Alex when he sings but you could still see Alex whipping his arms all around and the drum sticks haha :)
then they sang Sing For You, and Here Comes Trouble.
right before Here Comes Trouble Michael was talking about how much he loves the fans, and how in each state they meet all these girls, and then he was like "but i just have to say all Honor Society Fans are the sexiest girls ever." and then i looked at my dad and he looked like he didn't know whether to be amused or annoyed lol. but i enjoyed it.
and then Michael said that we were all also very beautiful and then he goes but we absolutely know that you are all TROUBLE!
ahha :)
then they all did a lovely speech :) i recorded it and i'll have it on youtube eventually, and they sang Don't Close the Book and it was wonderful :)
THEN Jason sang Use Somebody!!! i recorded that as well :) he's so good at it.
then they did Nobody Has To Know, and we all rocked out to the "party like it's midnight new years eve" haha it was fun,
then the last two songs were Over You and See U In The Dark.
and a lot of people did the Honor Roll and my dad just looked confused by it, and then he laughed at me, but hey it got me warm when i did it :)
then they were done, it was around 10:30. but it was a lot of fun :)
and i would go stand in the rain again :)
so we walked around for a bit got hot chocolate, i burnt my tongue, seriously it hurts today and i can't really taste anything...haha
went over and watched the Cherry Poppin' Daddies.
seriously loved those guys! haha they were SO FUNNY! the lead singer was dancing all around he was so awesome, and the keyboardist kept making really funny facial expressions. i want them to play at my wedding.
haha.
now i just need the man ;)
i recorded their one song, because i just needed people to see how intensely awesome they were :)
they were done at like 11:50
waited for a bit, they brought children on stage to countdown, then Honor Society came back and the Cherry Poppin' Daddies, and they all counted down while the Hershey kiss was raised. haha :)
then fireworks!
it was really awesome.
seriously the fireworks were better than the fireworks i saw on the fourth of July.
if it wasn't cloudy they could have been the best of all time...
ooo!
haha :)
after fireworks headed to the car straight to the apartment, and i have never been so happy to have a space heater and the regular heaters in my room there before it was amazingly warm and felt so good.
until i tried to sleep and woke up a lot because i was sweating haha but oh well it was nice that it was warm :)
and that is how i spent my new years eve!
hope everyone's was good :)

so i should go to sleep now haha
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
okay. yes i can but seriously.
so where to start...where to start...
wellllll
yesterday around 3 pm. left my house with my dad and headed to Hershey.
we got some gas, and some batteries and then we were on our way :)
of course it was kind of icky out. i mean it looked like it was going to rain. which really wasn't exciting.
at all.
so we got there around five.
actually earlier yesterday i found out that they were having a meet and greet "across the street" from where they were performing.
and originally i thought they were performing in Hershey Park, because that's what made sense to me. but when we got to Hershey one road was blocked off and it turns out that they actually do New Years Eve in the middle of the road on Chocolate Avenue. which was actually really cool!.
but anyways. so their meet and greet was in Hershey Theater, this old grand looking building. so my dad and i got in line. (my dad was more excited than i was...haha just kidding, but wouldn't that be hilarious)
so we were waiting in line. OUTSIDE. and it was really cold. and the line wasn't going that fast. and we were near the end. but it didn't matter because at least i was there :)
then i found out you had to buy something to meet them, i kind of really hate that they make you do that, it's basically an obvious way to make more money. and even though i feel like honor society wouldn't have it that way if they didnt' have to, it's just really annoying. since i'm pretty broke already. you know? and when i got there they only had shirts left, so it's not even like i could be cheap and only buy a poster. but those things happen i guess.
anyways had my shirt in hand. watched Ned chat amicably with some people. made me laugh. oh Ned.
Finally caught glimpse of Michael. i'm not really sure why i saw him first out of all of them, especially since i was still near the doors but i did. i was like woo! and i tried to not act like i was SUPER excited!
so to bide my time i people watched. and let me tell you some fans are just...insane.
a lot of girls were there in tights and skirts, and i was like wow are you dumb. i mean i know you are trying to impress them and all but it's freezing outside, and they probably will just think you are dumb, even if they think you dressed nicely.
i mean i wore a lot of layers ahha.
but you know what i was def warmer than those girls were, and that's all that matters to me :)
so finally got up there to meet them at like 5:45 and well i'm always not that great around celebrities. i mean i've met them a few times now but i'm still like what do i say that will make me seem like just a normal fan, not an insane one.
so i just said hi.
hahaha.
first was Jason, he said hey and something about the new year and staying warm. and signed my shirt.
then was Alex he was signing the girls shirt in front of me and the end of his sharpie flew off and hit Michael and it was kind of hilarious. :)
so when i got to Alex he was like oh man so sorry about that, because he bent over to try and find the cap and i stood there awkwardly for a bit haha. and i was just like haha it's fine. and he signed my shirt and said somethign about new years haha obviously i dont' recall anything that they actually really said when i met them...
Then was Michael i'm pretty sure he said Hey whats' up? and i responded not much you .
haha.
then he said something about new years eve. and signed my shirt
then was Andrew and i am absolutely certain that he told me to stay warm lol.
and he signed my shirt.
afterwards i realized i should have been like HAND HUGS!
but you know it doesn't matter :)
so now i have a shirt signed by them. which is pretty cool. we also weren't really allowed to take pictures "behind the line" like once you got up to the table. which i find creepy anyways. it's like oh HEY LET ME TAKE YOUR PICTURES RIGHT HERE AWKWARDLY FROM THE OTHER SIDE OF THE TABLE WHEN IT'S JUST YOU.
so that was cool.
then my dad and i headed to my apartment to get dinner and set up stuff for the night, it was actually really nice having my apartment like twenty minutes away because of beign able to stay there overnight for free.
and it was pretty sweet because the heat was still on!
but it was kind of weird because when we got there it looked like someone has been staying there. like they just left for new years eve or something. which was really weird. because there were like 10 glasses in the sink (seriously. i was like come on who did that, how hard is it to wash a freaking glass...sigh) and someone left the light on in the living room. so the electric bill will lovingly be super high. boys *shakes head*
oh also by this time it had started to rain.
yeah.
so we went and got subway, ate, then changed into some warmer clothing.
and headed back to Chocolate Ave.
got there aroudn 7:30 i would say, parked, put feet warmers inside my shoes, they worked really well for awhile.
Headed to where the stage was, mostly just by following people since i had no idea where it was actually taking place..
but it was easily found :)
got a decent spot, again my dad couldn't hold in his excitement ;)
so it got pretty wet, pretty fast, and pretty cold, broke out the one handwarmer while the backstage helper people (Brett and Pete?) set up the stage, and i was trying to open up the other one when Honor Society came out, and i was like woah they are like an hour early.
turns out it was only soundcheck ! haha
BUT. i finally attended a soundcheck party and it was awesome :D
they played Over you and Two Rebels.
it was really fun.
My dad didnt really know what to do, but i'm pretty sure he liked their music. not like he will now go become obsessed with them, but he said when we were heading to the apartment, afterward, that he thought that they were kind of like Fall Out Boy, he also said that it was interesting how they would like start a song rocking out and then you listen to the lyrics and they aren't like rocking out kind of lyrics.
haha. which is so true. but i told him it makes it even better :D
so soundcheck ended. chilled some more. it got colder.
waited and waited and waited. more people showed up, was trying to find Hannah and Kenny (the guy who drove the bus for Jonas!!!) but i couldn't find them so that was kind of a bummer but it happens.
then finally Honor Society came back out.
they started off with Full Moon Crazy,
and well ALEX wasn't wearing a jacket, seriously. he had on a short sleeved shirt and i was like oh my gosh Alex it's freaking like 30 degrees out and raining and you have no coat on.
he's insane.
but he totally rocked the drums last night :) it was awesome. Even my dad was impressed. he was like wow watch the drummer! i was like haha i know :) Alex rocks. of course it's always hard to see Alex because we were standing in the middle and Michael always stands right in front of Alex when he sings but you could still see Alex whipping his arms all around and the drum sticks haha :)
then they sang Sing For You, and Here Comes Trouble.
right before Here Comes Trouble Michael was talking about how much he loves the fans, and how in each state they meet all these girls, and then he was like "but i just have to say all Honor Society Fans are the sexiest girls ever." and then i looked at my dad and he looked like he didn't know whether to be amused or annoyed lol. but i enjoyed it.
and then Michael said that we were all also very beautiful and then he goes but we absolutely know that you are all TROUBLE!
ahha :)
then they all did a lovely speech :) i recorded it and i'll have it on youtube eventually, and they sang Don't Close the Book and it was wonderful :)
THEN Jason sang Use Somebody!!! i recorded that as well :) he's so good at it.
then they did Nobody Has To Know, and we all rocked out to the "party like it's midnight new years eve" haha it was fun,
then the last two songs were Over You and See U In The Dark.
and a lot of people did the Honor Roll and my dad just looked confused by it, and then he laughed at me, but hey it got me warm when i did it :)
then they were done, it was around 10:30. but it was a lot of fun :)
and i would go stand in the rain again :)
so we walked around for a bit got hot chocolate, i burnt my tongue, seriously it hurts today and i can't really taste anything...haha
went over and watched the Cherry Poppin' Daddies.
seriously loved those guys! haha they were SO FUNNY! the lead singer was dancing all around he was so awesome, and the keyboardist kept making really funny facial expressions. i want them to play at my wedding.
haha.
now i just need the man ;)
i recorded their one song, because i just needed people to see how intensely awesome they were :)
they were done at like 11:50
waited for a bit, they brought children on stage to countdown, then Honor Society came back and the Cherry Poppin' Daddies, and they all counted down while the Hershey kiss was raised. haha :)
then fireworks!
it was really awesome.
seriously the fireworks were better than the fireworks i saw on the fourth of July.
if it wasn't cloudy they could have been the best of all time...
ooo!
haha :)
after fireworks headed to the car straight to the apartment, and i have never been so happy to have a space heater and the regular heaters in my room there before it was amazingly warm and felt so good.
until i tried to sleep and woke up a lot because i was sweating haha but oh well it was nice that it was warm :)
and that is how i spent my new years eve!
hope everyone's was good :)
still shocked it's 2010
