I don't write in my journal that much.
unless to update about some pointless thing that I did or went to or whatever, mainly because I'm bored
the other reason I write in my journal is when I'm mad.
I tend to talk out of my butt when I'm mad and just say things, most of which I don't mean, just to vent. But this just seems to cause more complications in my life.
Therefore,
this will probably be one of my last journal entries...if not the last one.
It was a good run and fun while it lasted, but this thing is more trouble than its worth.
so if you want to know whats going on with me or my life you can just ask
if not, well i hope everything works out for you, i really do
Peace
oh yeah, one last question...it's a thinker:
didn't ANYONE besides me(and my roommates) want to leave the drama in highschool?
Current Mood:  over it

03:27 pm - college
This year I've learned so much more than I could've learned in my entire highschool "career", just because I was exposed to so many different kinds of people.
-I've learned that some people are really judgemental and stubborn, unless you do things their way, they aren't happy and you will surely get a lecture, or at least some not-so-subtle comments. These are the people that have nothing better to do than to evaluate everyone else's life
-I've learned that some people are really too "open-minded." They can be swayed in any direction with the slightest breeze. These people have no opinion made on their own and no backbone to say what may or may not be really going on in their heads.
-I've learned that some people are vey accepting. They are genuine, have a genuine interest in what you have to say, and genuinely care about you. When something goes wrong they truly feel for you and when something goes right they are truly happy for you. These are the people I can tell anything to without feeling like I am being judged. These are the people I can admit my shortcomings to without feeling like I am being judged.
-and of course no school would be complete without the fakes. You'd think in a school of 35,000 if someone didn't like you they'd avoid you...Nope. I sit here and I can tell (most of the time) when people think I am doing something "wrong."...they make comments that they think are SO subtle. I can tell when people talk about me(most of the time) and I can tell when people do it when I"m not around...its cool...While I'm always up for a good fight..I'm not wasting my time or energy on these people anymore..so have at it:)
All in all, first year was good. My struggles with some things became more obvious, but I don't care. Everyone has shortcomings, problems, and struggles. I'm not trying to pretend my life is perfect. In all honesty, I don't believe that you should, not saying you should spill every personal problem, but obviously only God is perfect. Why pretend that you are perfect too. It makes you seem more human and likeable when you show your weaknesses sometimes, and when you do it...you'll find out who your true friends are.
I also learned that nothing is set in stone, relationship wise...friends...boyfriends/girlfriends..even best friends. Anything can be shaken or give out at any time, so I hope you have a backup plan.

04:05 pm - an update for nick stringer (who is lucky i didn't call him nicholas)
so it's been a long time since i've updated. I've been EXTREMELY busy. Finals are next week. Dead week is this week but I still have my bio lab final this week...which i'm not that excited about. I'll be glad to get out of school though. Matt graduates soon...that's crazy. i can't believe I've finished a whole year of college almost.
this weekend was pretty fun though. friday night i had a bunch of people over and we had alot of fun. saturday night i went to a crawfish boil where the crawfish was kind of bland, plus it was storming outside...but it was alright. Baton rouge flooded last night and eric's car died on the side of the road from water intake. he had to stay up until three-thirty working on it with ryan (what a good friend huh?) and they still couldn't fix it. but this morning i took him to auto zone where we bought new spark plugs and we finally fixed it. but eric thinks he may have bent a rod which totally sucks.
but oh well. i don't have much to say and i have a lot of cleaning to do...so ill try to update more often nick ok..b/c i know you have nothing else to do but sit around and wait for me to update my journal..but nothing exciting ever happens to write about.
but i love college
and my friends
and eric
and thats all
oh yeah..i fixed my camera..FOR REAL THIS TIME...it was the setting that the flash was on that was making it blurry...b/c if you move in between flashes it will blur..so i fixed it...YAY..
i get to take the pictures at the next party..woo

08:37 pm - did i mention i hate webassign?
soo this week i am really stressed.
last week was "technically midterms" but i only had two
my lab midterm is this week...and i MUST do good on it
have to do good on chem test...its not hard...but the freaking webassign takes so long and if you miss one you have to redo every question instead of just redoing that question..so that blows.
i hate webassign more than anything...so here go some studying pictures for no apparent reason...well..i guess so i don't lose it doing work for so long.
oh yeah did i mention i hate webassign?
coffee and pirouettes mmmmm
studying very hard. and burning out fast. hence the picture of the coffee..im living off of it...i just need to hook myself up to an iv

03:13 pm - this makes me so mad
"Recently Marines in Iraq wrote to Starbucks because they wanted to let them know how much they liked their coffees
and to request that they send some of it to the troops there.
Starbucks replied, telling the Marines thank you for their support of their business, but that Starbucks does not support the war, nor anyone in it, and that they would not send the troops Their brand of coffee.
So as not to offend Starbucks, maybe we should not support them by buying any of their products!
As a war vet writing to fellow patriots, I feel we should get this out in the open. I know this war might not be very popular with some folks, but that doesn't mean we don't support the boys on theground fighting street-to-street and house-to-house for what they and I believe is right.
If you feel the same as I do then pass this along, or you can discard it and no one will never know.
Thanks very much for your support. I know you'll all be there again when I deploy once more.
"Semper Fidelis."
Sgt Howard C. Wright
1st Force Recon Co
1st Plt PLT "
this was sent to me, and i can't believe that someone that does not support the war wouldn't at least support the troops
anyway, i just thought that everyone should read this

and we drove around covington at 10:30 at night, and realized that nothing was open
it was so sad
covington was different for me this time, i can't say why, but it just was. I couldn't wait to get back to baton rouge this time. I mean, when I was at home it was ok, but aside from the one parade I went to, there was absolutlely nothing to do. It's weird to see the movie theater that I grew up going to become the deserted theater, there was hardly anyone going to it anymore...that's so weird to me.
anyway, i missed baton rouge and even though I am not ready to go back to school tomorrow, I am definately glad to be back. And as I labeled my groceries I played "callin baton rouge" so loud that even tubby would be pissed. haha
This year mardis gras was a lot of firsts for me. I drove to the parade, mingled with a few drunks, didn't make eric come, and got kissed by someone that was only slightly drunk, he definately knew what he was doing. And then of course there were the people on the floats calling me over saying 'show me your titties'....I hate that word, but its not as bad to type it as to say it.
anyway, i don't really have news, i should finish unpacking and doing laundry now, b/c i didn't get all the work done that i wanted to over break, i got A LOT done, but not all i wanted to.
well, i hope that everyone is well, and doing good at school, or at least doing something that you are ok with, hah. well thats all for my "mardis gras break" update .
oh yeah and it's finally freaking hot outside! woo! I say that but I'm sure tomorrow it's going to be freezing again...

09:10 pm - so now i'm a princess
well..valentine's day, everyone's writing about it...but i have pictures woo
ok so we knew this huge surprise was coming from our boys, but we didn't know what it was. luckily, eric told me that he was coming over at 5:30 so i had time to get ready for...whatever it was. Ryan and Eric cooked dinner for me, brittany, and Danielle. We had shrimp pasta alfredo with texas toast and chocolate pie for dinner. It was all very good.
I love our boys. It's too bad that AJ had a game, but he was going to help, until he realized he had a game, so that was sweet that he was going to be there.
anyway, i know you are all DYING to know what eric gave me. well..maybe not DYING but whatever.
so here is what my bed looked like before valentine's day
and here is what my bed looks like now (after eric left)
i must say that i do have the best boyfriend of all :)
sorry about all the freaking url's
photobucket is being gay
and i don't have time to figure it out
because i have a test tomorrow
so i will figure it out later

11:26 pm - whats up with you?
wow so lots of things to update on. well not that much.
today i started volunteering in this program called "raptor rehab" its for birds that have been injured (either temporarily, like a broken wing, or permanently, like a missing wing or eye) and they keep them there to live. if they are able to go back into the wild they eventually set them free, but if not well they just keep them there.
anyway...
it was so cool. first i have to cut a whole rat with scissors to measure out how much food to give them. by the way.their rats come whole in like a pack of 20 like you would find chicken. frozen. in a styrofoam tray with cellofane (sp?) wrap. so i put on the leather gloves and feed the owl that i am assigned to, but first the guy introduced me to their oldest and nicest hawk. so i put the glove on and tapped her chest and said "fist" and she got on my arm. i was totally holding a hawk on my arm today..yes...my major is the coolest. so i'm really excited about doing that. i get a four day shift every other week, and every time it is with a different bird. i love my owl though, she is an orphan, but she is beautiful.
ok.so me and britt and dani got a personal trainer..for free. yup thats right, its because he's in love with me. haha not really. he's our friend. and he's not really a personal trainer per se..but he should be. he said he's training like 10 people right now, so he picked up us too. and he is really good. we meet with him three times a week. it's really funny because he's a really goofy guy, but he is so serious about this. he was late yesterday and i was like "haha you're late" and he's all serious and is like "let's go" but yeah. its cool.
big superbowl party this sunday at our condo. so many people are coming. i hope we have enough chairs.i am excited. even though i couldn't care less about the superbowl, but my dad hates the steelers so i guess they should lose, but i really don't care one way or another.
ok that's all thats in my life right now. just thought i'd let everyone know.
