So I def. have been busy lately. Lots of school work and well, work. My schedules totally diff. from this summer.
Mon-Fri
8/9-1pm School 2-6 work
Sat. & Sun.
1030-? sometimes 5 sometimes 1am depends on the shifts I work and whether I'm bartender.
I'm absolutely exhausted today. I had a chiropractor apt. really early and it took longer than I thought so I didn't have much time to get home and shower. I ran around the house till I had to be back in class at 1130. Mom's back from Cali now. I really missed her! She was gone for almost a full week, from Fri-Wed. of last week. I stayed with Max all weekend to make sure he didn't get lonely. He only pooped in the house once and it just happened to be the day mom came back so she came home to that. I felt bad cause I tried to do a really good job of running the house like she does.
Well it's off to work in a little bit. I better start moving and make my lunch. On the menu today is - a turkey sand. w/ cheese - an apple - a banana - a salad w/ my fav. dressing Italian Vinagrette.
YUM!

I'm so excited to be up at Waldorf and hanging out with Aaron. It seems like it's been such a long time since I've got to see him. We got eachother gifts and it ended up that I got me and him matching white gold bands and he got me a white gold ring that I really wanted. It just worked out really well. When I got up here I saw that he had made a big bulletin board with photo's of us and cards that I had made him since we started dating. It was awesome.
I hope tonight goes perfect...

Other highlights of the summer...
Me at a wrestling promo. I got to be the ring girl. Very fun.

My best party buddy/family member/co-worker Megan. We love to be at the West End.

Aaron and I love Coors Light. We should be on commercials. Seriously.

E, Jess, Me, Bry, & Nicole at the campsite.

Bry and I at the pitstop 1/2 way down the river. It was going well!

I had such an awesome weekend doing my promo. All I had to do was walk around and hang out and watch the show for like 4 out 5.5 hours. The crowd was really awesome and the show was interesting.
Also got to go back to Hooters and eat with the gang and I DIDN'T HAVE TO WORK!
All of that and more good stuff.

So pretty much I just dont trust Aaron. If I wasn't acting like his mom all the time he would be doing so many more innapropriate things. I swear, I constantly have to be on him saying: you cant do that. It's annoying really and I think it's getting pretty old pretty quick. If he acts like this now in DM he's only going to be worse when he moves into the house at WC. Lame.

Yep- work today wasn't horrible. Mothers Day at Hooters doesn't get busy so I didn't make the best money. A little more than a hundred, but that's still pretty good cause it was raining and cold. Last night we had a bunch of magician's come in becuase there was a magician's convention. I have about 13 balloon animals and I'm bringing them to the kids at the daycare tomorrow. I think they'll really enjoy them. Hopefully this week I'll be getting my car back and I wont have to walk to class anymore! I absolutely hate it. Especially with all the construction by my house because it makes my walk about 15-20min. and in the morning I am just not in the mood to do that. I've only had to walk TO class once. Home and couple but that's not as bad because I'm actually awake by that point.
Well, it's been a long day and I'm definitely due for some sleep.

Right now I'm taking a speech class at grandview. It's Shakespeare. I actually like it but we'll be starting king Richard the III soon and I have a feeling that will totally suck. The daycare hours will probably be elongated. (sp?) Also, life without a car isn't good. I'll get it back from the repair shop in a week or so and be happy. It's around 1300 worth of damage. I've paid for about a third of it in a month and it won't be too hard to pay the rest. With working at Hooters I might be caught up in a little more than a month, plus some other $ I have to pay off as well. I think it totals around 2000 and that will all be payed before I go back to school. Easily. I still have enough to go shopping and go out on the weekends with friends. :) Meagan especially, she's a good party buddy.
Well, that's about it. The car wreck is really the biggest highlight but it's not earthshattering. life's been moving forward and whatnot.

Just finished my freshman year of college. Geez, it seemed to have gone by pretty quick. I can't believe I start my summer classes on tuesday! What was I thinking?? I get myself way too packed schedule-wise and don't realize until way after the fact. It's a constant downfall.

well it sure has been a while since i've been here, i was actually surprised it even existed as a screen name anymore.
This second semester at Grand View has been going pretty well. I like most of my classes and the work load sure has been easier to handle. This morning I had my 8am class, sociology and also an english class. Themes of literature. I that one the best. Mostly because the books we read are really interesting and I like that we really get to analyze them and tear them apart. Matthew said something funny in a letter the other day. He said the people at the are almost the exact same type of people. He said, they flock to the fort like suicides flock to bridges. He always says things like that. Witty little comments. Like how he called me his Waterlo. He got that from Napolean because he was defeated at Waterloo. It's soo Matt to say something of that sort.
I stayed home from work today because I had to have a biopsy done at the doctor. It didn't really hurt that bad, but it does a little when I laugh too much. I plan to write a few papers and keep working on a third. Hopefully I can get a lot of work done and not be so stressed these upcoming weeks. This whole year is winding down and it seems to be moving very fast.

I get to hang out with my buddy adam this morning. We planned to go to the beach but i'm not sure if that'll work out since it's pretty cold & i'm not really sure what we'll be doing other than that. Hmmmm....
Tomorrow I have to be at grandview college at eight and I was suppose to go to static tonight, so i'm not sure about all those plans either. It's a little frusterating.

So tonight has been movie and Pizza night with Nikki Nelson. I haven't had too much time to hang out with her so when we hung out this weekend we decided on having this night. I need to get a pedicure soon cause my flip flops rub on my feet and I need to have the tough skin taken off. Yea that sounds a little gross but when all's said and done they'll be all smooth & soft. Saturday night me and nichole went with Jackie Miller to the Elks lodge for Mike's mom & this other lady heidi's birthday party. It was a keg so we got to drink. Plus when we were sitting at a table talking with the parents there and mike and kyle came up and asked us to dance. so we had dance contests all night. It was a blast. Minus the fact that kyle continually spilled his drink of the dance floor. He was saying goodbye to his dad and just dropped the whole thing and walked away. It was hilarious. Sunday me and Nikki went out to Kim's parents house and floated around on the rafts and got nice and tan. I even had to stop at walgreens to get some aloe vera so i didn't start to peel. (spelling?) I'm a little scatter brained right now for some reason so no matter how i look at that word it doesn't seem as though i spelled it right! But anyways tomorrow is my hang out day with Adam H. in the morning. I haven't really gotten a chance to hang out with him since the school year or actually even before that.
I quit my job at tasty's. Well it was kind of quit. I dont know how to explain it. I really liked the people i worked with but me and the manager just weren't good working buddies. He's really nice though. I went back up on friday to take in my shirts and pick up my check and ended up watching the register while marshall * the manager went up to the bank and cashed his check real quick. Took out some orders for old times sake.

what a hectic night due to Madison. She keeps getting into my buisness when it has nothing to do with her. Like she's now the keeper and whatnot of me and aaron's relationship. I texted her and she called be back saying she couldn't read it. When I told her I didn't want her to text or call Aaron and to stay out of our buisness cause it has nothing to do with her she got mad (i'm guessing) cause she hung up on me. I also told Aaron that if she called or texted him again that he needs to tell me. I'm about to get really pissed cause her little comments and input isn't necessary.
saw kevin the other night. He stopped by to give me a reel from his job at Copper Creek that said Christie on it. I thought that was pretty nice. He was over at Alex Giddings with Tom. I think it's nice she's moving on from such a jerk. I never got to know Tom, but I'm sure she is picking a really great guy. Good luck for both of them. I hope they're really happy together.

Thank you to everyone who has kept everyone posted about brian on Livejournal. I'm not really close with him but knowing that he is ok has been something I've had on my mind constantly. I know we're all praying that he returns home healthy... and that makes me feel a little better. Even typing this is making me want to cry, but thank you. It really means a lot to me.

Wow, you never realize that something so horrible can happen to someone you see everyday and talk to so casually. It's just the biggest shock. It also pulls us all together. I think we should plan a day to go visit Brian and everyone who was in the car and all of his friends should just go together and let him know he's being thought of in the midst of all of this. I do pray that he makes it out ok and healthy. I JUST spoke to him not a month ago and kind of caught up a little. It's just so unreal in my mind right now.
COMMENT IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO PICK A DAY TO GO SEE HIM> i know he cant have friends right now, but the earlier we pick a day the more people we can have.

sideways You know it ain't easy For these thoughts here to leave me There's no words to describe it In French or in English Well, diamonds they fade And flowers they bloom And I'm telling you These feelings won't go away They've been knockin' me sideways They've been knockin' me out lately Whenever you come around me These feelings won't go away They've been knockin' me sideways I keep thinking in a moment that Time will take them away But these feelings won't go away

So really quick-like, I think I might be going up to Waldorf to see my main boy Aaron. I asked him to be with me again when I e mailed him and he texted a yes. All this technology, lol. I dont care how we did it, I just miss being with him and I'm happy things are back to the way I like them. A good relationship and pulling up my grades. Getting things better. :]

Brighter than the sunshine
I never understood before I never knew what love was for My heart was broken, my head was sore What a feeling Tied up in an ancient history Didn't believe in destiny I look up and you're standing next to me What a feeling What a feeling In my soul Love burns brighter than sunshine Brighter than sunshine Let the rain fall I dont care I'm yours and suddenly you're mine Suddenly you're mine And it's brighter than sunshine I never saw it happening I'd given up and given in Just couldn't take the hurt again What a feeling I didn't have the strength to fight But suddenly it all seem so right You and me- what a feeling Love will remain a mystery But give me your hand and you will see Your heart is keeping time with me Got a feeling In my soul Love burns brighter than sunshine Brighter than sunshine I'm yours and suddenly you're mine Suddenly you're mine And it's brighter than sunshine
