Changed my major today to English Lit. I'll graduate in 4 1/2 years so it's not too much longer. I just hated advertising. I also dropped my adv. classes so all I have now is German and my Lit class. Sweet.
I'm much happier now, and much lesss stressed out. Glad I got it figured out. |

| I'm back |
[Sep. 21st, 2005|02:03 pm] |
So I'm back after a week of stress and just not fun times. Funerals suck! My mom's family can only bicker, even when they're dad has just died, and it just wore on me. I'm so glad to be back.
My friends are fantastic. Kali got me a cake before I left, then she got me flowers, and the entire fraternity/candidates got me flowers as well. Speaking of candidates, I got a little bro this semester!! It's kind of weird b/c he's 25 (transfer student went back to school after working) but he's awesome and I'm stoke.d Unfortunately I missed his first event and got his black book to him late, butit's all good.
I have to go do a bunch of shit I don't feel like. Bah.
Harry is this weekend. Woot! |

My grandpa died last night. I got a phone call from my mom waking me up at 10:40 and she told me. He died of a heart attack in his sleep, so at least he didn't suffer. It's just so weird. I saw him a few months ago, and thankfully I went. My mom hadn't seen him in over a year, I feel terrible for her. There were some rookies here that stayed the night so they gave me hugs after I got done on the phone w/ my mom and then I went to informal rush, because there's nothing I can do, so sitting at home wouldn't change anything. Some of the brothers knew, so I got hugs, and people told me they loved me and they were sorry. It makes me amazingly happy I have such a close bond with my brothers here, even the ones I don't hang out with regularly made sure I was ok. I guess I am, I'm going to go down to the memorial service this week, whenever it is. I don't care about classes. My mom is going to drive here, spend the night, and then we'll probably drive down together. I was going to go home to see Alicia and Danielle anyway...now the trip won't be so happy. At least I got to know him, though...Emily isn't even 4, and Bart's dad died before she was born. My dad's dad died when I was 5, and my mom's bro died when I was 5, but I wasn't old enough to remember or really understand then...this is the first person who's died that i've been close to; it's not a good feeling. I know death is a natural part of life but it scares the shit out of me and it's really hard to fathom that I'll never see my grandpa again, or listen to his corny jokes, or tell him he was crazy for driving a motorcycle around at 70. Gosh, 70 is so young nowadays. Even though I wasn't super close to my grandpa, I'll miss him, and I wish I'd called him last week when I thought about it instead of putting it off. Life's too god damn short. Alright, that was totally random, I'm going to go now, and eat some cake (Kali bought me a cake b/c it's almost my 1/2 Birthday and they all missed it in March b/c i was sick). Hopefully the next entry will be happier. |

| Hurricane |
[Aug. 30th, 2005|09:09 pm] |

I'm watching the coverage from Hurricane Katrina and it makes me sick to my stomach. Hurricanes never seemed so bad. You just can't imagine what it'd feel like if it happened to you ujntil it does. Even though this is the worst one anyone can remember, I can't help but think that I wouldn't be glued to the weather channel and cnn and feeling ill if it hadn't happened to me. Now everytime a Hurricane comes through I'm glued to the TV watching. I feel for the people. My family that was in the way are all okay, just power out, etc. But man doo the towns there look bad...still flooded up to 20 ft deep w/ ppl trapped on their roofs, and 70 already counted day, probably, unfortunately more to come. Damn this sucks. |

Had a great time tonight. Felt good to let lose. And it's oging to feel great not to have to wake up to an alarm tomorrow, I'll sleep as late as I want!!! I hope the tides are changing and I'm finally going to get some luck in some areas I've been lacking. ON another note, I don't like girls who are two faced and get mad at people for doing something to them when they did the exact same thing. GRRRRRR. |

So it's been a while. I moved into my new apartment, but the carpet is full of cat piss, so they're coming to replace it tomorrow. It's been fun so far. We've been cooking a lot and hanging out and we have some decorations up and such. The only thing I don't like about it so far is the fact that I have to deal w/ couples constantly. But I guess I'll just have to deal with that. TOmorrow I'm going to St. Joe Beach w/ Joe and Dan and maybe Jen to see my uncle, then Sunday JOe, Dan, adn I are going to see a Braves game and then to spend the night w/ my mom. We'll come back monday, hang out Tuesday, then Wednesday row leaders report for preseason training. I'm not sure where the summer went. Time flies when you're having fun. Now i need to find a job and get ready for school to start. I thought I had a point for this entry, but apparently not really. Well, now you know I'm alive at least. |

So it appears that I disappeared for quite a while, but don't worry, I'm still alive and kickin'.
( Slightly Long Account of my recent weeks ) Hope everyone else is having as great a summer as I am even if I'm going to be dead broke by the end of it!! |

| I got a new digital camera... |
[Jun. 12th, 2005|02:53 am] |
Got a new digital b/c my other one broke, they couldn't fix it, but it was
under warranty. So I got a new $350 camera for free.
Whoop! I got a canon power shot sd300, digital elph, 4
megapixels, etc. It's SWEET. Fits in the pocket yet still
takes damn great pics, methinks.

Check them out from the party

I leave for Annapolis tomorrow to see my cousin graduate from the Naval Academy. Cool. Dubya is speaking at the ceremony. Not so cool.
Get to see Danny and Fam. Cool. They're sick. Not so cool.
Get to see the rest of the Fam including my uncle that moved to Germany and my aunt that lives in Utah, and my DAD!! Cool.
I got a 100 on my PR test today I barely studied for. Cool.
I think got a 100 on my Stats test as well. Double cool.
Now I have to pack. Not so cool.
Have a good rest of your weeks. |

I've been tagged by lizblizz (but i'm not tagging anyone!!!)
1) Total number of books I've owned? Umm...75-100? I like books...and I do read them more than once, but eventually you have to give some away
2) The last book I bought? Umm...a Lee Child book probably
3) The last book I read? A textbook...stupid college doesn't give me much time to read for fun. I'm re-reading all the Harry Potters right now, though.
4) Five books that mean a lot to me:
1) The Harry Potter Series - no explanation necessary
2) James Patterson- Kiss the Girls. One of the first "adult" books I read, got me addicted to the murder mystery books.
3) Janet Evanovich - Stephanie Plum Series - such great books that have vivid characters, about a female bounty hunter and her crazy antics and crazy family. They make me laugh out loud
4) Lee Child - Jack Reacher Series - just one of those writers that are amazing and keeping the stories new and fresh with the same familiar characters...another mystery type thing, but the 'hero' is also the bad boy
5) "Familiar Quotations" by John Bartlett--my dad gave it to me after the hurricanes b/c he couldn't keep it. It's special though b/c my grandpa used it and gave it to my dad...they used quotes out of it for trials. Will come in very useful in papers. |

Back to being the third wheel it seems. I hate couples. JK, i'm happy for my friends.
Yesterday steven, jen, clint, matt, and i went swimming/tanning at the pool. Then we cooked and hung out and Karena came over. Oh, and steveen and jen and I did an ab workout yesterday adn today. Try not tomake me laugh. Lol. Feels good though.
Statistics and PR are boring. Well, not so much PR, only b/c it's 3 hrs, but stats is killing me. I just left early today, couldn't deal with it anymore.
I'm tired again today, dunno why, i've had small headaches for about 3 days though, i think those are from my jaw being weird and hurting.
There are so many things I shoujld be doing right now, but I can't find the energy or motivation. Maybe tomorrow, although it's running at 9:30, class @ 11, job hunting, kayaking at the rez @ 3, then beer pong at clints later. Yay for fun with friends. I just miss the group and all the jokes and feeling like i had a close group, but all good things must come to an end, right?
I'm still sick of waiting... |

I had to go shopping for a bathing suit today. I really don't like shopping for clothes, much less a bathing suit. But I found osmething that looks halfway decent I guess. HOlpefully I'll still like it when I have to wear it around other people...
Going to meet w/ TC the newspaper guy tomorrow, then probably heading to Daytona, reunite with my crew on Wednesday when they get there, then head back thursday afternoon adn go to Panama City to see my uncle, then my mom will be in Grayton Beach on Friday. Good times.
Except I have to go back to classes on Monday...only one week to play. :( |

I'm giong through withdrawals...today is the first day that Kali, Matt, Joe and I haven't hung out. But, it's okay b/c I've talked to all three of them at some point today. Kali called me and we talked about our crafts, lol. Definitely gonna have to make the trip to Daytona to see them. It was funny cuz I was at a family guy party and I told her I had to go she was like "fine". Hah, she misses me! Lol.
Do you ever wonder why you try to help your friends? Sometimes it seems no matter what I do nothing works. If I try to not give advice or say much, friends get upset b/c I won't tell them what I really think, but when you tell them the truth they get mad because it's not what they want to hear. There's no way to win! Ahhh.
K, I'm gonna go finish being crafty for the night and get my sleep, hopefully meeting up with the newspaper guy tomorrow.
Ich bin mude. |
