so i'm now living in boston, yay! and it didn't take me long to get used to sounds of the city. of course, the only reason i'm here is cuz of school but that's ok. me and three roommates are renting an apartment not even 5 minutes away from the school, which is awesome. but it's a two-bedroom on the seventh floor with 1.5 bathrooms and a balcony. with me being scared of heights, the balcony isnt really that bad. except looking down at night, which i decided not to do anymore. i can look down during the day, but not at night for some reason. but its a nice apartment anyway. but im sad cuz the summer's over and classes start tuesday. i'm kinda nervous about classes but i think i should do fine. anyway, i figured i'd give everyone an update on my life. |

so watching armageddon this morning was a bad idea. while its an awesome movie, in my opinion anyway, the ending made me cry which its never done before. and i kno its cuz my grandfather died recently. it put me in a sad mood all day and it made me realize how much i missed him. so basically ive been sitting in front of the tv all day watching movies, chick flicks really, to get my mind off it. which kinda worked but kinda didnt. i figure that writing will help get my mind off it too which it is. on the bright side tho, i managed to get my laundry done today and we had amazing chinese food for dinner. |

so yesterday was a lot of fun, after i got out of work anyway. work wasn't all that great, especially since i got rear ended as i was picking up coffee for people at work; luckily there wasn't any damage to either cars. but anyway, me and a few of my friends went and saw indigo girls last night, and it was amazing! we got there kinda early so we could get a good spot and hung out in downtown lowell for most of the day. we got seats in the middle of the park and could've gone closer if we felt like it, and just hung out listening (and singing along with) the music. of course, then it started to rain and it was actually a lot of fun getting soaked. i ran into a few people i knew, too, and hadn't talked to in a while, which was cool. for some reason tho, i was feeling dizzy a lot of the night. but once the equipment got wet, the concert ended. but then we hung out at shedd park for a while, then dunkin donuts, and then i ended up over at one of my friend's houses watching movies, which was awesome. i ended up sleeping over cuz it was 2 am by the time the first movie was over, and then we watched another movie. i don't think i fell asleep till about 4, and was woken up at 7:30 by the light coming in thru the windows. i also continued hanging out with the same people till about 1:30 pm. all in all, i had a blast and it was the perfect way to end a not so good week. |

so this week was hard. my grandmother moved in with us wednesday, which means that we now have a handicap ramp leading to the front door, we had my grandfather's wake thursday :( and i worked all week, but got the weekend off :) however, i had a couple bad days at work too. then today, after church and hanging out with friends, the family went and packed up a bunch of stuff from the grandparents house since its getting sold, and it was hard. all in all, it was a long, tiring week. and i think im gonna get going cuz i just wanna relax right now. |

so, summer's been going pretty good. i'm working at hannaford pharmacy this summer, and will hopefully continue working there in the fall on weekends. i like the job a lot and i'm learning a lot, too, which is good since i'm majoring in pharmacy. i had surgery a couple weeks ago, but it was a good thing. i got my adnoids taken out and the bones in my nose straightened, which means i can breathe easier and won't have as many sinus infections. yay! unfortunately, my grandfather, who was sick for a while, ended up dying yesterday so that kinda put a damper on 4th of july plans. but i'm doing ok, all things considering. |

so school's almost over. i dont know if im happy or sad or both about that since its my last year here at WNEC. i think its both cuz im excited about going to boston next year but im gonna miss everyone here that isnt coming with me. i might be getting an internship at hannaford pharmacy over the summer, which im wicked excited about. ill hopefully kno within the next week or so. why do teachers decide to have tests the week before finals? its really annoying. dashboard's coming friday! yay! i get a free t-shirt and may possibly get to meet them. anyway, im gonna be brief and get back to doing work. |

so i actually have free time for once to post something. the last few weeks were insane cause all my profs had tests right after each other. i swear, its a conspiracy the way all the tests are at the same time. but last week wasnt so bad. it was actually pretty easy compared to the weeks before it. today was ok even tho i had two quizzes today that i think i did ok on. weekends are fun cause i actually get a chance to relax and not do schoolwork for a little while. and this weekend was insane cause we had our first concert of the year on sunday. it was way too long and couldve been better but it wasnt that bad since it was the first concert. but afterwards i got to go out to eat cause my parents came up and i actually got real food for once. it was soo good and of course i brought leftovers home with me. and wednesdays gonna suck cause i have class alll day (9-6 with a break for lunch at 1)and im hoping lab gets out early so i can get a chance to relax before the second concert. if it doesnt then ill b out of my room for 12 hours straight and its gonna suck. so im def not looking forward to wednesday. plus i have a paper due thursday that we wont even get the information on till tomorrow which means that if i dont make good headway on it tomorrow then im gonna b screwed wed night. luckily i get to sleep in thurs, only till 830 tho. but that was the extent of my updating for a while im assuming. |

i think the long weekend made me not want to do work, even tho i end up doing it neway, because i havent been in the mood to do it. the long weekend was awesome. i ended up going to the mall with jill which was so much fun cause i hadnt hung out with her in forever. then we had my sisters bday party which was fun. then i went shopping for last minute things i needed to bring back to school. it was nice to just relax for a weekend, even tho i had over 200 pgs of reading to do for history.
i came back here on monday, even tho we didnt have to get back till tuesday, and finished my reading and did my take-home quiz. and i ended up going to walmart and i got sisterhood of the travelling pants! i was excited cause i even ended up getting it on sale! its such a good movie, girlie, but good. and labs were cancelled last week which was awesome cause theyre insanely long.
the new medication im on for my cold is making me tired and lose my appetite so i dont think thats helping at the moment either. luckily ill be done with it by the end of this week, but thats such a long way away. my history class made my day this morning tho. we got our papers back that we had to turn in before or after break, but if u turned it in before break u got a bonus. at first i didnt get mine back cause i changed seats today and the prof didnt notice. i thought it was kinda funny at first but then i didnt get my quiz back either so when he came around again, i asked him for my paper. he ended up giving me both and thought that i was out sick. i got a 10/11 on my paper, out of 10! he wrote that it was the highest grade hes ever given! yay me! |

so last night we had a frigging fire alarm at 2:30 in the morning, and of course someone pulled it. as we were leaving the room, i was trying to find my glasses. then i covered my ears as we walked out the building cause its way to frigging loud. then i hung out with friends on the grass till 3 when they finally let us back in the building. it took me forever to fall back asleep after that too. i skipped breakfast today too in favor of more sleep, and i still ended up almost falling asleep in class. luckily my next class isnt till 2 pm so i can take a nap. |

its been an interesting time out at school so far. its been awesome to see all my friends again and hang out. last weekend was the best tho. i had a movie night in my room with some new friends friday night. the school had a drive in movie saturday night and played the longest yard and the amityville horror. for someone who doesnt do horror movies at all, i was jumping a lot. i'm just glad i saw it as school and not in the movie theater. then there was a midnight buffet, and after that i went and watched ghostbusters with friends. it was so much fun!
then last night, i hung out in 358 and did my hw over there. lets just say it was a very interesting night, and i couldnt stop laughing. i did manage to get my hw done tho, which is good. |

so moving back to school early is awesome, but it feels like there arent that many people there. and it sucks when ur roommate isnt here yet either. luckily camp is almost over, and my roommate moves in tomorrow. all thats left is the tanglewood trip tonight, which hopefully wont be boring, and convocation for everyone in chorus. and then classes start monday. yikes! but then i'll actually have something to do instead of just sitting around and hanging out. |

[Aug. 20th, 2005|11:14 am] |
so it's been a great summer, but it's almost over for me. i go back to school next tuesday. i worked for eight weeks at camp as a lifeguard and came back with a really good tan. i hung out with my friends as often as i could, which wasn't as much as i hoped cause i was so tired from working all day. i went to hampton beach for vacation with my family for a week, which was so much fun. i'll miss everyone, but i'll get to see my friends from school which will be awesome cause i haven't talked to them in so long!
i've had some really fun nights with my friends too, like going to bertucci's, having a movie night and then losing power, and a few bonfires at someone's house. it's been fun guys, don't lose touch once we're all back in school! |

People come into your life for a Reason, a Season, or a Lifetime. When you know which one it is for a person, you will know what to do for that person.
When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed.
They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally, or spiritually.
They may seem like a Godsend, and they are! They are there for the reason you need them to be.
Then, without any wrong doing on your part, or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end. Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away. Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand.
What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled, their work is done. The prayer you sent up has been answered, and now it is time to move on.
Some people come into your life for a SEASON, because your turn has come to share, grow, or learn. They bring you an experience of peace, or make you laugh. They may teach you something you have never done.
They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy. Believe it! It is real! But, only for a season.
LIFE TIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons: things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation. Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person, and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life. It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Never pass up the opportunity to go for a joy ride.
Allow the experience of fresh air and the wind in your face to be pure ecstasy.
When loved ones come home, always run to greet them.
When it's in your best interest, always practice obedience.
Let others know when they've invaded your territory.
Take naps and always stretch before rising.
Run, romp, and play daily.
Eat with gusto and enthusiasm.
Be loyal.
Never pretend to be something you're not.
If what you want lies buried, dig until you find it.
When someone is having a bad day, be silent, sit close by and nuzzle them gently.
Delight in the simple joy of a long walk.
Thrive on attention and let people touch you.
Avoid biting when a simple growl will do.
On hot days, drink lots of water and lie under a shady tree.
When you are happy, dance around and wag your entire body.
No matter how often you are criticized, don't buy into the guilt thing and pout. Run right back and make friends. |

so i realized that i havent updated this in a while. a lot has happened. i got out of school, i went to six flags and saw simple plan, i've been haging out with my friends, i got my job at camp, and i got a car.
leaving school was both good and bad. it was good cause i got to come home again and see my family and friends here. but it was bad cause i had to say bye to all my friends at school for the summer, but i can c them nect year.
six flags and simple plan was AWESOME! it was so much fun! and it was fun meeting people and running into people that u kno. i went with garrett, matty, chris, and ashley, and me and matty ended up running into dudley and his friends too.i didnt go on that many rides but i did go on a few. the concert was the best part, tho. relient k opened, and they were pretty good. then simple plan came on, and i sang every word to every song cause their my favorite band. and then good charlotte came on, but we left early cause none of us really knew nething by them. and then we stopped at mcdonalds for dinner at 10 pm, and continued the long drive home. garrett had to drop chis and ashley off at his house first since they left a car at his house, and then me, garrett, and matty headed home. i didnt get home till 1 am either, but it was so worth it.
plus im glad to get my job at camp again cause its so much fun, and i now have my own car that i can drive myself there in too. and im tryin to get antohter job at a pharmacy somewhere too, so i can possibly b makin even more money this summer. and ive done so much stuff with my firends here already that its hard to remember it all. but we did go to the playground, have a bonfire already, went to roberts field, and we''ve watched a bunch of movies. i love summer! |

i passed my lifeguarding course so i have a summer job now. yay! i also minorly sprained my wrist or something like that in the process of passing the curse too. but i went home this weekend for mother's day and got to drive my new used car home this weekend! yay! it was so nice to drive cause i haven't driven in forever. but i drove it home from the garage yesterday, and i drove it to my eye doctor's appointment this morning. unfortunately, i couldn't find the thing to turn on the lights of the car but i didn't really need it. but it was so much fun, even tho the back right wheel wobbles a little cause i think it's a spare but that'll get looked at and hopefully fixed. but it was fun to drive again, plus i got to choose the music that i wanna listen to, which is hard when u have to get driven around by other people. and there's only finals week of school left! i'm happy and sad about that at the same time cause i'll b leavin all my friends from school but i get to see all my friends from home again, which'll b cool. |

so six flags was so much fun! me and garrett went today from 10-3:30 or somethin like that. we went on all the rollercoasters, i even went on superman, and a few other rides too. all of them were so much fun, even tho we only went on most of them once. superman was fun even tho i was screamin the entire time. and mind racer was cool, except when u were completely upside down, cause it was one where ur feet hung down. and batman was fun too, except for the initial drop. the wooden rollercoasters were a nice change from the rest of them cause it was kind of relaxing. mr. six's pandemonium was really fun, except i wasn't a big fan of goin backwards. and flashback was scary. we were all the way in back, and u go backwards, up very high, before the ride even starts. once u go thru it once, u go backwards thru the entire thing so we were in front goin backwards. goin backwards was the scary part, it wasn't too bad goin forwards. but it was so much fun! |

so country western night went pretty good. it was so much fun! there was line dancing, a mechanical bull, mocktail magaritas, and a texas hold 'em tournament. i wish i couldve done line dancing but i had to watch the bull. i did ride it, even tho i only lasted 10 seconds. but a lot of people showed up, and they had a blast. i got to see brent and cj line dancing, which was just hilarious. and i think i had about 5 mocktails cause they were so good. and i took so many pictures. all in all it was a fun time. and riding a mechanical bull is a lot harder than it looks. but so much fun. |
