i will say that i am very dissappointed that caribou makes you pay for wifi, like 4 bucks for 2 hours, but still kinda stupid in my opinion. The service is pretty good tho and i like coffee every once in a while, lol. work was terrible last night. and it just motivates me even more to find a new/different job. it is really nice not having my parents home for the weekend tho, its not even so much that they annoy me, it's just nice to have the freedom of not having to give tell anyone where i'm going or deal with them telling me to go to bed. and i don't know when it changed but livejournal totally changed their format and it weirding me out, like its different, but the same, ya know? i miss max like crazy tho. well, i did get to talk to brock the other day, and i guess he goes to a really bad part of iraq in like 10 days or under, and i feel like sad for him or something. i don't really know what it is about it. i think that i don't want him to die just when we're finally starting to figure out this friend thing. now i dont ever expect to be more than that ever again because of many reasons, (most importantly geoff) but for once i think we might be able to be friends. i don't know. oh, geoff was over last night, and i know he didnt feel good but it was so nice to see him. i'm glad he came over. like i got called into work and it kinda ruined all of mine and his plans but i got cut early and then we hung out and munched and watched the end of "meet the fockers" and flipped channels. but i'm out, lots of other stuff to do with my precious internet time.

well, i'm at panera for my first time ever with geoff and using the internet on my laptop for the first time ever cause the house computer is like loaded with viruses and such. but this is kinda exciting. well, the job that i was recently interviewed for decided that they didn't have any available jobs during my available times and they offered me a job next semester if my schedule was different, which i refuse to change right now. thats ok tho, there must be something better out there for me. i really like the broccli and cheddar soup in the sourdough bowl. i might have to come back soon. i can't believe it's already september. thats crazy. and there was the big 9/11 tv specials, okay, not to be insensitive, but that was like wayyyyy over done. and my company (geoff) just informed me that cbs was playing the news that they had played on 9/11. wow. it was like 5 years ago and no one celebrates all of our other national tragdies as enthusiastically as muc as this one. but enough of my venting, i want to explore my new computer!!

Current Music: "out of my head" -Puddle of Mudd Subject: crazy weekend.. Time: 10:20 am Current Mood: calm

So this weekend was my birthday/my sister's wedding. it was a little crazy. like friday, was my actual birthday and it was also my sister's rehearsal dinner. I am really glad that geoff came with me, that made the weekend bearable. We even got to take a little detour on the way there, lol. I didn't feel good like all weekend. but friday, we eat dinner at the the "backdoor pizzeria". and it's funny cause we were all making fun of it until it's like, "oh, we're actually eating here tonight. and then we all went back to the hotel just to hang out a little more. I had my own room and was super excited about that. saturday morning i had asked for a wake up call and like 2 minutes before that came, my dad was knocking on my door. I, having just rolled out of bed answered it in like full bed hair and stood there confused like crazy and said "ur not my wake up call". but we all went out to bob evans for breakfast that morning and then showered and those of us in the wedding party had to be there at 2 for pictures. pictures didn't end up starting until quarter to 3. Something happens to girls when they become brides, they become crazy and scream at everybody about everything. almost makes me never want to be one, if that's what happens. the actual wedding was at 4 and lasted under an hour. then the wedding party then crammed into this tiny limo in true clown car fashion to head downtown for a few more pictures. so by the time we arrived at the wedding reception, the whole bridal party besides me and my brothers, were wasted. they all like stumbled out of the limo yelling and laughing and such. Dinner was okay, I loved the ranch dressing for the salad and bread and butter. Certian people that i never would have expected to, got really rocked but that turned out to be extremely amusing. after the evening ended james, melissa, john and chuck headed out to bdubs but me and geoff went backk to the hotel and watched law&order and what not to wear cause i'm addictted to both. my family was like the outcasts there. it's not just me being paranoid, there was definitely dirty looks all night, makes me wonder what she told everyone about us. then sunday was the drive home, me and geoff stopped at subway and it was amazing, i haven'tr had subway in like years, mmmmm. my stuffed monkey, baffoon, was along for the whole weekend as well, lol. Any details that you'd like to hear about my weekend because i left most out in an effort to be more positive, feel free to give me a call.

Current Music: "listen to you heart" D.H.T. Subject: another week Time: 11:13 am Current Mood: cheerful

Last night me and geoff tried to watch "grandma's boy". now this movie looked hilarious in previews a long time ago but that was such a mislead. Like we didn't even finish the movie, which by my standards means it's terrrible. granted, it did have some really funny parts, but most of it was extremely boring or just weird. If anyone else has actually seen the movie and for some strange reason actually liked it, I'm sorry. Other than that, i got my hair done yesterday and it looks sweet. It's like a mix of really blonde and dark brown. The wedding draws nearer... i guess i'm kinda excited because i get to spend the whole weekend with geoff and my family so it shouldne be too bad. I am currently looking for an hourly job still tho, like a mon-wed-fri job so that i wont have to depend on ppl's whims for how good of a server i am. I do want to say Congratulations to annie for making it into ccs and then some, and congratulations to ky on ou, congratulations to geoff on graduating from udm this past spring, congratulation to janine on getting married, and congratulations to adam and Eileen on graduating from utica and athens. I think that covers all of my congratulations, have a good week everyone!

Current Music: "Straight Tequila night"~John Anderson Subject: like worst birthday ever... Time: 02:00 am Current Mood: depressed

So this has been one of the truliest depressing years for my birthday ever. I feel like my whole family has forgotten about it, especially my sister who couldn't care less considering her wedding is the day after. I know geoff hasn't and a couple other ppl for sure haven't. Well, I think i'm just upset because everybody's going on to bigger and better things and here i am, same place i've been for like years now, ya know? Like everyone i know has something exciting going in their life, so new place to explore, some new job or opportunity to take and i don't. I'm still here, same as i've always been. I'm sick of it. Work was terrible tonight and almost all my friends there have already put in their two weeks. I don't know what i expect, like i don't want to just like tag along to someone else's life, i'd like to pull my own way throught and thats proving to be impossible. I did do this really cool painting the other night tho, I am actually really proud of it, it's based on my favorite edgar allen poe poem, Annabel Lee. I'm planning on giving it to geoff for our one year anniversary which is in like a little over a week. In other news, i did give my oversized puppy a bath today and that was rather amusing because he hates them, but he's stronger than me. Enough of me sharing my thoughts.

Current Music: "Broken"~Seether Subject: hmmm Time: 11:41 am Current Mood: awake

So even tho trying to work thru the summer that i was sick most of, i still end up on the poorer side. and so begins the job search for a day job 3 times a week. which is made possible by me only taking 2 classes in the fall. thats good for me tho because i want to actually learn whats going on in those 2 classes instead of passing and not learning a thing. Janine's wedding is just a mere like 12 days away now, yay...good thing there's not anything important before her wedding, like, oh lets say, someone's birthday? I do get to hang out with geoff like all the time for the couple days in grand rapids, so thats a plus. oh, and i saw my super ex-girlfriend, which isn't really that bad, but it had anna faris in it and it just kinda ruins a movie for me when she's in it. if u don't know who i'm talking about, she was like the lead female role in scary movie four, the one with a ton of eye makeup in waiting, and the annoying rockstar in just friends. so basically she's in everything nowadays. i'm kinda excited to go back to school tho, i'm not sure why. i really haven't hung out with like half the people i wanted to this summer. oh well. time is like flying. i did get to see brock before he leaves for iraq which was kinda nice. it was interesting to catch up with him for a little while. everything changes in time, which i've come to believe is a good thing.

I could have swore i was 18 like days ago and now i'm almost 20, it's weird. I had fun yesterday tho, i went to geoff's grad party and it was fun, i got to talk to people i little more than i had just in passing. the only bad part was this ex that decided to show up and i had some issues with her. other than that it was fun tho, i did flip over backwards in a chair, lol. all i was trying to do was put my feet up on the chair with me but i forgot that the chair was on a slope and so as soon as i tried to move, it tipped. i haven't seen "pirates 2" yet and am dying to see it. the thing is, like everyone i know has already seen it or has no interest in really going. After the grad party, i went to annie's to crash because of the little tif with my dad. That was nice. It was really nice to like wake up, wander downstairs, munch, shower and head off to work. work was okay as well. i learned that i do work with some very caring people. time definitely changes things. well, gotta go.

Current Music: "Far Away"~Nickelback Time: 01:29 am Current Mood: content

awww, someone noticed that i rarely updated, i feel so special. well, what's new with me, hmmmm. My cavalier finally broke for good, so then there was a huge car search which eventually lead me to the sunfire which i now call my own. School is still school, and I've decided to take summer classes. Geoff and I are still doing really good, just passed the eight month mark. We've been going to eachother's churches for a while now just to how they differ and learn a little more. As many of you know, I'm baptist (northern, totally different from southern fanatics)and he's catholic. So it's quite an experience to attend mass with him. His family is super helpful tho, like if i'm confused about any part of the service and Geoff's not around, i can ask his mom or dad, both of whom are just great people. I also feel as if no one cares at my church, it's almost like no one notices if I'm there or not, ya know? I guess i was never really part of the church clique, it's a feeling of being a third or a fifth wheel. Oh well. Family's been bearable recently, like Geoff and I hang out with James and his buddies on occassion and it's fun. He's been applying for a elementary teaching job (he graduates in may) and I think he applied out of state as well. That kinda scares me. I don't know how we would continue our relationship. Granted, I would want to, but that brings a whole bunch more complications. I guess there's no real reason to worry about that unless it actually happens tho. I really should start to make my friend her easter basket. We make eachother them every year, and easter is like two days away. I'm such a procrastinator. I think most people in college are tho, like everyone learns how to write an acceptable paper the night before it's due. Work was really stressful tonight tho. I won't really go into that because I dont really want to think about it again, but I have calmed down since leaving work like 3 and a half hrs ago, with the help of talking it out and taking a walk with Geoff. He is such a great guy, he puts up with all my craziness and I know that is a very hard thing to do. I'm sure that everyone doesn't read this to hear me babble about my bf tho. So to everyone I don't normally see and to everyone I won't see because I'm in the nursury this sunday, Happy Easter!!!

I'v had such a great couple of days, well, besides making next to nothing at work recently, I've had so much fun lately, like wed me and geoff set up an artifical xmas tree for grama and then we went to royal oak where we then got sick from starbucks, but went to at mongolian bbq and out to see "ice harvest". thursday: well, we're just going to skip thursday, although i did go sledding and make some snow sculptures with annie and got my car stuck and was laughing to hard to help dig it out.lol.friday i hung out with geoff and was kinda mean and then i went to work and then i got the best present ever!!!!! an ipod shuffle, which is like attached to my head constantly now. i love it! thanks again hun! and saturday i went to my bros graduation and then went shopping and running with my favorite present ever. then there was work which was okay, but after work me and geoff ate with dave then went to my brothers christmas party and that was interesting but fun and lasted until early this morning and i was able to catch like 4 hrs or so of sleep before church. But that is what i've been up to if anyones interested.

I'm updating because a couple people asked, well that and my class was cancelled today!!!!! yay!!! i guess the teacher hurt his back, which isnt something i should be happy for and i do like the class, its just that this was a nice surprise. after reading through my last entry, i just want to say that everything is fine, that it was just some stupid little fight that i blew out of proportion. thanksgiving was a crazy busy day for me but i liked it. I was glad to finally crawl into bed at the end of the day, but it was a great day nonetheless. Christmas is getting dangerously close and since all my days run together it could be in like 2 days and i wouldn't notice. But this weekend i'm making cookies with my mom and Geoff's mom! that'll be so much fun. I dont really like school anymore, all my classes this semester are not important anyway, but i guess i'll finish them. I am quite sick of my job tho, especially recently. like everything was going okay and within the last couple days its gone downhill. almost to quitting point. but i refuse to quit without having another job lined up, and i dont want just a different server job, or retail for that matter. but i am on the phone right now and cannot concentrate on both at the same time, so i'm off!!

wow, i cannot remember being this upset in a long time, i want to say its been since this spring. like i used to get really upset at work but i've calmed down with everything over the past few months until today, like i'm sitting here, jaw clenched, tears streaming down my face making it hard to type and i can feel it coarse through me. It's unwanted but very familiar. There's like this little voice whispering in the back of my head, why am i wasting my time? why am i trying so freakin hard if it doesnt even seem to be reciprocated? I do love him and all the little things he does and notices, like taking the lemon off my water glass and putting up with my selfish water issues, make my day, but sometimes it feels like i'm just competeing with every other female in his life. not that i'm insecure about his feelings or our relationship, it's just that i'm so jealous and i dont even want to be. maybe it's just me being immature, i honestly dont know. the physical aspect of being this upset is what scares me, the fact that i can feel an emotion overcome my body. I'm almost always cold, but right now, i am radiating heat and that scares me. i have to do something, i have to get this energy out.

okay, so i've decently decided that apples are like the most delicious things ever! honeslty that's probably like a majority of all i've been eating the past couple days. i hung out with Geoff last night tho and i had such a good time, i must have spent half the night laughing, it was a blast. i feel like i dont really talk to a lot of ppl anymore tho, like even if i were to look at my friends page, i probably talk to like a whole 3 ppl total in person, its so weird. i wouldnt describe it as lonely because i dont ever get lonely, i think i'm just becoming all nostalgic and missing the good times i had with everybody, but a lot of ppl have changed also and i dont know if i would get along with the ppl they've become as well as i used to get along with the ppl they once were. but as much as i miss everyone, i kinda want to travel, just like go different places, see different things, even if it's just for the day, i think it'd be fun. well and i was talking to annie about this and now i really want to go on a train somewhere, like i dont think i've ever been on a real train, only those little ones they use for tours. but enough of me putting my random thoughts into words, im going to bed

okay so thursday was the rehearsal dinner for my brothers wedding and i was so unbelieveably nervous that night, like it was ridiculous. but the actual wedding was yesterday and it was a lot of fun, i got to get all dressed up and everyone told me that i clean up well so i told them to take a picture because i dont do it very often, lol. but the actual wedding was really nice and there were only a few dry eyes for the ceromony then there was lots of pictures and then we went to stoney creek apple orchard for more pictures and back to the reception hall and the reception lasted for hrs with the dinner, and mingling and dancing (yes i danced, but i will admit i was a little buzzed and thats probably why, lol) , i'm trying to think of how to spend my last likke 15 pictures so i can go get them developed because i really want to see how they turned out. when the reception ended there was a shuttle service to the hotel that guests could get rooms at and i had a room which was awesome, like i probably spent like an hr just exploring the room because i was so excited to have a whole hotel room and bathroom all to myself to do whatever i wanted to, which was like talk on my phone and sleep and take the longest shower ever, it was greati think im done babbling for now tho...

I will say that it was a lot of fun meeting new ppl, only certain ones of course, and attempting to tan on the beach and attempting the sand dunes at nite or basically any other time, lol, like 2 more days there and i would have been a pro at them! I love like going away with ppl tho and having random talks around the campfires, like after you share some horribly personal things, you feel so much closer and more comfortable with ppl and i love that! i went with my friends, lauren, chels and al, such a great bunch of girls. one of my plans was to sleep for the rides there and back but al such a great taste in music like i think i sang the whole time both ways, lol. sunday like 3 hrs after i got home i went to hang out with my friends annie and brock and we got this awesome pizza that made annie's bed smell like ramen noodles, lol but it was so good and we watched the vma's and they were so funny, i love hanging out with them, lol. and sunday is terra's birthday!!!!!!!!!! yay!!!!! im so excited. i start school in a few days tho, thats so weird, however i am incredibly tired so i'm gonna cut this entry short, hopefully get some restful sleep and be much much more energetic tommorrow!
