Life = HELL
My iPod was stolen/lost!! Not really sure which yet
I found out I have a relatively low D in my Stats class
the only way to get a C is to get at least a 60 on both my midterm and final, that should be as easy as it sounds... but its not
I have an italian exam tomorrow too
oh and a history test on monday
lets not forget the project and paper due next friday
Ben Folds this weekend, looking forward to that cus Bryan is coming
havent seen him forever, we're gonna drink together :) i'm excited
Formal is coming up and not 100% sure I even have a date
guys are complicated
though me and that one guy talk on the phone every day.
I miss him a lot :(
My mom's surgery went well
she's sore, but doing okay
And on those last two notes...
I WANNA GO HOME!!
I am sooo fed up with this place and everything that comes with it
I am just soo ready to be at home with the people I love
Breaking point is sooo much closer than normal
im stressed and i just wanna cry but i cant
maybe i should take tonight to just fnd myself again
go shopping and get food by myself or something...
sounds like a plan to me
God please give me the strength to get through the next few weeks in one piece & with my sanity!

location: in my dorm :[
mood:
proud
music: Dashboard Confessional "Stolen"
So I dont even know where to begin....
LEIMUN was this weekend, and let me say, soooo many emotions going through my head and I'm not even on the team anymore.
First of all, they won and im sooo impressed. They seriously made me super proud. Especially my seniors. I can't even begin to explain how proud I am.... a 3rd fucking win at Kent, thats amazing!! We will seriously have the first ever Doc Hammond 1st place trophy next year if we keep this up.
Second emotion: irritation! Staff members are amazing, but I mean come on... how hard is it to moderate your alcohol intake. You have 3 nights with these people, dont tell me you cant spend one of those nights sober.
Third, confusion (i'll get more into that later)
Fourth emotion: excitement because i got to hang out with Johnathan, Jared and Greg for the whole weekend cus they were on staff with me
Fifth- happy because people told me that my little inspirational speeches this year actually helped them.
Overall, it was an amazing few days. The people I spent it with were amazing for the most part. Family is amazing, whether they're real family or the family you make yourself. I am sooo glad I went and didnt keep my lazy ass at school, even though now I am super behind in school
SO... moving on to school, I'm failing my math class, im 99% sure. this is gonna suck at the end of the year.
Me and Bigs are gonna make a trip to Bowling Green sometime in the next few weeks to go to their greek store so we can get some pretty sweet and amazing hoodies and the such.
Alright... so there's this guy.... he confuses the hell out of me. I spent a lot of time with him this weekend, well as much as I could since he was a delegate and I was on staff and not really allowed to fraternize. Oh well.. so anyways, we danced together a lot, and now i dont know where things are going. He says we're going to talk when I go home for this weekend, but we'll see! Hopefully all goes well, we actually do talk, and I end up in a good mood afterwards.
My mom is having surgery this week... and that reallly makes me sad/nervous since she's gonna be off of work for 6 weeks, and I'm basically going home this weekend to help my dad do things around the house.
And GRRR for the fucking train that is passing the school right now that is making it very difficult for me to focus on my music and writing.
i think thats it... probably not... oh well

soooo lost
music: Jason Mraz "Beauty in the Ugly"
I dont know... i just dont know
life is confusing....
and so is everything else!
friends:
losing a lot of them... and im apathetic
bonding much more with some... loves it
i dont even know anymore, who are my real friends... i'm figuring it out, but its hard as hell
guys= one of the most trying things in my life right now
guy @ home... mad feelings for him, but not sure we can make it work
guy @ school... sooo sweet, totally interested... who knows
GAHHH
I have WAYYYYYY to much homework and not enough time to complete it
wednesday i leave for LEIMUN and i dont have enough research
on the upside:
-kappa initiation this weekend :) love my girls
-got a 92% on my geography exam
-my sister sent me a card in the mail, basically just saying that her and my niece are thinking of my and sent me some pictures and a late valentine, nevertheless... so cute... miss them soooo much
i'm out...
call me, save me, love me, whatever you wanna do!
and dena, for you: LAME!
Mar. 14th, 2007 | 11:47 pm
Hold on, baby, you're losing it
The water's high, you're jumping into it
And letting go... and no one knows
You cry, but you don't tell anyone
That you might not be the golden one
And you're tied together with a smile
But you're coming undone
I guess it's true that love was all you wanted
Cause you're giving it away like it's extra change
Hoping it will end up in his pocket
But he leaves you out like a penny in the rain
Oh, cause it's not his price to pay
Not his price to pay...
wow so yeah...

music: Hinder "Shoulda"
I realize I have been neglecting this thing...
but for good reason I think.
The only time I ever right in here is when I'm bitching about something
and lets be honest, none of you care really...
So why waste up internet space posting about things that no one cares about
I'll sum the latest events up with + and - signs:
- I had a Stats midterm on friday that I'm 90% positive I failed.... *insert prayer for a curve here*
- I have a History midterm monday, take home Geography midterm due wednesday (havent started), and an Italian test with the workbook due, also on Wednesday...
+/- Kappa Karaoke was wednesday night... + because it went awesomely well and I love doing events with the sisters, but - because the people who told me they'd most likely be there, didnt show... and that hurts
+ Kappa & DG game night was the 9th... AWESOME time
+ went home for Kwanita's wedding reception the 10th... yayyy for late night car rides
+/- Alpha Sig bid night: me and Britta bought Devon (+), had to pay $30 (-)
++++ JUBILEE was 2 weekends ago and I absolutely loved it... I cant even express how much fun I had
+ I've been going to the gym more frequently... and doing better with the not eating shitty foods thing (it's amazing, I mean, the food portion sizes on the packaging... are SOO RIGHT, you can really eat just that amount and be content... haha)
+ I started going to a Bible Study and I absolutely love it
- I dont rely on my friends for anything anymore
- not that I dont want to, but I feel as though I cant... I mean... no one keeps their word anymore
+ me, emily, annie and maria got into welch next year... moving down one room to 310
- im slowly realizing that I dont really have a chance with the guy i like... damn being 2 hours away...
+ I'm going to the Columbus Blue Jackets v. Dallas Stars hockey game with my mom on friday :) yayyy
I don't know what you did
But you got me to fall for you
And I know that its stupid
But you know that I try

mood:
confused
music: U2 "I still havent found what im looking for"
so i sit here thinking to myself...
and there is so much going on in my life that I cannot sort out the emotions
i'm used to feeling an overwhelming amount of each emotions, im not used to multiple
*My Kappa big key sis is Kim :) and Im soo happy because she's super sweet and totally spoiled me this week for big-little week
*I was soo happy and felt so good because my whole Kappa family got together, INCLUDING my Great-Great-Grandbig who already graduated and is doing her Grad work at OSU. she drove up just to see me and the family and have margarita night :)
*I need to talk to someone from home sooo much, cus i have more feelings for him than I was willing to admit over christmas break, and now I regret that terribly and miss him more than i could have imagined. I cant even begin to explain the friendship we built over the last few years.
*I am sooo frustrated with my classes right now. I think that even though i'm doing pretty ok, i'll never be able to get the grades i want
*I am excited yet nervous that i will be seeing my mom on tuesday. everytime we talk, she makes me feel like im not good enough even though im trying soo hard to be everything i know she wants me to be. I feel like she compares me to my sisters even though i know that i'm probably better off than they, because they both have kids. dont get me wrong, i love my niece and nephew more than the entire world, Aubry & Daniel = my happiness
*I feel like my friends expect more of me than i can give. friends from home wanting advice on things that i cant help. i'm 100 miles away, what do you want me to do? as much as it pains me to say this, i thing my friends here take advantage of me. my stuff=my stuff. i dont share well, so dont ask. and dont ask me for a ride somewhere if you dont plan on giving me gas money or asking me well in advance. just because you dont have a car doesnt mean i become your taxi service. unless i offer a ride, find rides elsewhere... or heres an idea: WALK! im not made of money and my car doesnt appreciate being taken advantage of, and neither do i

mood:
hopeful
music: cheap trick "surrender"
so 2006 wasn't too bad, I cant complain too muc. I did some things i would rather not have, but i also am very proud. I graduated high school, graduated 8th in my class actually. I lost my dog, got into a car accident the day before graduation, went to insane graduation parties, left for school, met amazing new people, had a wonderful boyriend that i dont regret a day of, broke up with someone i truly cared for, made it through my first semester of college. the entire crew broke up, we're all in different schools and points in our lives. oh well... u know how all that goes...
Goals for 2007 (I dont like the word resolution)
1. get back into shape
I gained 21 pounds already and i wanna lose it, or turn it into muscle.
2. make a conscious effort to be more open to people
i am way too withdrawn when it comes to myself, i need to learn to open up to people
3. not get attached to people
i've learned that by doing that, it hurts worse when u lose them.
4. resolve things with drew (more short term)
and either have the relationship evolve, or be content with where we are
5.read more books for my own liesure
im reading a lot and i enjoy it
6. find myself in my faith again
this has always been difficult for me, i say im religious but i dont really try
so my goal is to go to church more
7. get a 4.0 for my second semester of college to bring my gpa up
i did extremely well for myself and it being my first semester of college, but i need to focus more
8. visit annie in utah
cus the three dirty pirate hookers gotta visit all the houses. haha
9. go to more concerts
me and dena need to get back in the concert scene, its been too long
10. play sports... soccer specifically
i've played for 14 years... this not playing at all is killing me
oh how wonderful because for the first year, i made goals that i can actually achieve
andrea is happy for herself

and i saw the good shepherd tonight.
good movie, for the most part
however it was 3 hours, and the plot line was lost
partially because of its length... oh well
and I went to the Rock Hall today
for those of u not from the cleveland area,
thats the rock & roll hall of fame
oh how i love that place!!
and i desperately need to talk to a certain someone
boo for him/her going on vacation

so as much as i love being home
i need to go back to school, for a few reasons:
-i spend too much money here (that i dont have)
-i need to do something more productive w. my time other than sleep
-while being at home i managed to break my iPod
-i miss my friends
So yeah just thought everyone should know I broke my iPod, I miss my friends, and I'm reading a totally awesome book called "3rd Degree" by James Patterson. I read Eragon already, and loved it, but im waiting on my copy of Eldest to come in at the library
woot woot for scrapbooking and reading
i love it
