ok.......first of all...sorry for the amount of time that has passed since my previous post. First.....i had band and it wore me out....and Second......my computer got the BLAST worm virus......but i cleared that up on my own.so all is good again.
Man, band is hardcore here...we have warm-ups.......it rocks! I checked my HUSKER band uniform out today...that was mildly amusing....
Classes start tomorrow........suck.....oh well...from what i've heard i have a pretty easy class load......GO ME!
I'm all settled into my room....i did my first loads of laundry and i've done my dishes and everything......it's kind of refreshing because i've discovered that responsibility isn't that big of an issue for me......which could be considered a VERY good thing.
So yeah! WE had a sleepover in our room last night....it was me, megan, and jon.......it was a good time......mostly it started becuase jon was over here watching a movie/fixing my computer/playing old skool Nintendo.......and then everyone left but us 3.......and we were like....SLEEPOVER! Yeah Jon didn't really stay over...but it was a good time.....
That's all i've got right now....i must rock out to my music and go find my last book for Philosophy 106!
Adios!

Yay!
So my tattoo is FINALLY finished and it looks sweet. I had it finished tonight after a long day of traveling to and from Sloan, with a little gambling in between. I love Black Jack! Anyways, i won like 65 bucks in a slot machine but ended up playing all of it but ten bucks back into the machine....such is life.......but at least i cashed out after winning big and rationed my money out slowly, right? After that we continued our day of sin with a trip back to Lil Bros where i got tattooed and my other company, Garret and KK, had their respective work done. After that we ordered a pizza and watched the Eddie Izzard; Dress to Kill comedy special.....great time. God i love those guys......
Anyways all i can hope for now is a speedy healing time...because Sam has THE audition in T minus 4 days and counting!
Later all......and if i don't see you.....i love you

Last night was great fun...me and molly played in the rain. It was awesome. Then JP and Pat came over and we watched Family Guy and things were good. But that was yesterday and this is today and things are starting to piss me off. Everything that i do.......and everything that happens around me is just grating at my one last nerve........and i don't know why, but i have this huge urge to cry. Yay for emotional vulnerability. That's all i've got right now.......

Hello all....
Ok so first...i apologize for the seriousness of all the last posts. Things have been getting kind of heavy and i haven't had time to just go out and chill for a long time. Well that all changed this weekend. Friday was my last day of work. And it was excellent! It was overall a pretty crappy day as far as the kids go....but hey i got paid to eat pizza afterwards because we had to put the baby rooms back together after the carpets were cleaned and we got pizza. It was awesome! So i exchanged phone numbers with a few people and all was good.
That night i supposed to go to skateland with some people but when we got there i found out that you have to pay like 6 bucks just to go in and sit.......and i didn't want to skate! So me, KK, and Shannon went to Applebee's instead and got some grub. It was so awesome to spend time with those gals. It had been a long time and i remembered how many small things we all have in common so it was a great time. After that we went to Family Fun Center....everyone wanted to DDR. Well i ddr, but not well and not often, so instead me and Shannon teamed up our efforts to start getting as many tickets as possible! I quickly found out that i am a SKEEBALL GOD!!!!! Seriously i was kickin ass and takin names! So after a little bit of skeeballin we found the game that was our savior.......Ladies and gentlemen...i give you............SMOKIN' TOKEN.........which also was funnier because it hinted at planned events later to come that evening.........so anyway......the two of us honed our skills on the game and kicked ass......all in all we walked away with 521 tickets.....i got a huge inflatable T-REX, shannon got a inflatable guitar, we got a pack of fruit snacks, 2 laffy taffy's, and a tootsie roll for molly. All in all an awesome night, even though some things didn't pan out.
Then Saturday night i went to dinner with my parents and then i went to molly's to chill. Good times again. I hung mostly with KK and Garret. We went to Taco Bell and then we went back to molly's, tried to watch Heather's, that didn't work so me, KK, Garret, and Chang went to the Adult Emporium in council bluffs........it was awesome! That was so much fun.
Anyways, this weekend has made up completely for my crappy spell this summer. I love all of the kids i hung out with. So yeah..........now i'm lookin forward to tuesday.......which entails gambling and tattooing.....or piercing in KK's case........so until then.....it's just another Tequila Sunrise....

Ok.......things are starting to wind down......and the anxiety is starting to kick in.......
Today was my second to last day of work...tomorrow is my last and i miss my babies already. I almost cried today when one of my favorites left...he's taking a vacation day tomorrow so i won't see him. It honestly amazes me that i became so attached to these kids. My snuggle buddy, Carson, won't be here tomorrow and it makes me sad. I hope that if there is some way that they remember their infancy somewhere deep inside their minds....that they remember a little bit of me...because god knows they will stay with me.
Anyways, Meg and JP came over tonight and we practiced a little and then chatted about college stuff.....and then enjoyed delicious malts made by my brother.......his malts rock! So yes we enjoyed good chats, good malts, good company, and some almost good music. Good times. Luckily, i'm starting to feel good about my audition music. Still a little jittery....but overall a feeling of confidence. Man a week from now......i'll be packing up my stuff....that's sobering. Hopefully, we will get in one good camping trip before we leave, but who knows if that will pan out.
~Note to self~ Buy a big cookie from Old Chicago for the babyroom gals!
Sorry, somtimes i just have to remind myself. I'm starting to feel a little sad....i have this feeling that next week i will spend my time finishing graduation presents and calling up everyone in my cell phonebook and stop by and say my goodbyes to everyone. I guess it saddens me that i haven't seen all of the people i wanted to this summer. The glamour of senior year is gone.....and the jitters of freshman year are back. Things will never be the same. I will not be the same. Millard North is no longer my home. Maybe if i keep telling myself these things......i will get used to them and they will start to hurt less...wishfull thinking......
Anyways to end on a happy note....."Give 'Em Fitz" thanks JiP!

I think i've decided what my "deal" is. I have sunken into a burn-out state. I have very few emotions....and even fewer feelings. This blows. I don't go anywhere, or do anything...getting my tattoo was the most memorable thing i've done this summer. I haven't partied or anything. I have 19 days left until classes start and i move out in 10 days. Unfortunately, my fears will come true...i will move out very quietly and will probably be remembered by few. I won't go out with a bang. Oh well i guess.......i can't feel anything anyway. I guess i just feel like i have this permanent haze of apathy looming over me at all times.....so i give you all my sincerest apologies....i'm sorry i wasn't the friend you wanted me to be..and to tell you the truth....no guarantees for the future. All i can say is......we've had some good times...and some not so good times.....and that is how i will remember each and every one of you... because as of now......nothing is sticking around enough long in my mind to sink in.
goodnight.

What Random Noun Are You?

hehe i'm a cello.......yay!
oh also........my horoscope today is very fitting for these last two weeks of normal life, so here it is.........i think we all could take this advice to heart...
There are no more secrets. Drawing attention can only heighten your stress level. Honesty scares you, but your courage will be rewarded if you speak your mind. All are interested in a happy ending.
i leave you with that

Hello everyone!
I think i had a life-altering realization today. But i'm not sure...my realization was that i only have 4 more days of work, 11 more days at home, and 21 more days of summer freedom left. That sucks...not to mention...i'm so terrified! I have no idea what the hell i need to do to prepare myself for school.....none whatsoever. I haven't gotten to do anywhere near the amount of hanging out i'd planned on this summer, and i'm on bad terms with so many people it's scary.
That's my realization for all of you.....it's boring i know. Today was good at work.......i'm so glad that my last week of work will be Nancy-free! YAY! Most of you have no idea what i'm talking about but that's cool.......well right now i must skeeedaddle and work on graduation gifts. WAHOOOO for procrastination!
out
p.s. the stoned wheat crackers where my finidngs Molly!........

Ok so now i suppose i can explain my quoting like a bastard last night....at least now that my parents know. So if you were really confused after reading my last blog........i was talking about getting tattooed! I'm offically inked! And i must say it is absolutely crazy awesome fuckin sweet. It's so pretty and it just rocks my face off...! If you ever wanna see it, just ask.
That is all and I am tired...i must apply my ointment and go to bed.
