| college move in |
[Aug. 28th, 2004|06:12 pm] |
All right I moved in yesterday it was a lot of work. i had to unpack all of my stuff and then put it away. Mom also took me to Wal-Mart to get food and other stuff. Then we took Steff out to dinner at an Italian restaurant were we all got the chicken allfrado. Jen is on the floor above us so I got to hang out with her after we were both moved in. We watched Euro trip since she hadn't seen it before. Steff joined us half way through the movie and when it was over Jen wanted to get some sleep so Steff and I went to hang out with Zack and Keith.
Well I have a cold which totally sucks because I'm all stuffed up and dizzy half the time. |

Ok well this last week has been eventful. Monday I started allergy testing to see if I was allergic to anything in my make up. It itched like crazy and then made my skin feel stretched out underneath the patch. When they took it off Wednesday when they took it off they found out I may be slightly allergic to two chemicals; one found in hair coloring kits, and another found in mascara and eyeliner. When I went back Friday the irritation was completely gone so they said to not worry about anything unless the spot on my face flares up again.
Thursday I went to Impressions and got my haircut and highlighted. It doesn't really look like the picture that I wanted my hair to look like but I love the hairstyle I got. |

| Beach Trip |
[Aug. 15th, 2004|12:33 am] |
Well we got back from the beach last night. I got a tan sort of...ok I don't tan very well so knowing my luck it'll be gone in a week oh well. I had a blast at Myrtle Beach though.
Early Monday morning we left and drove down to South Carolina and once we got there we hung out on the beach. We went to Dirty Don's for dinner they had shrimp, wings, mussels, and oysters for $0.35 each. The oysters were nasty but everything else was good.
Tuesday we went to the NASCAR Speed Park the go karts are a lot of fun we also ate at the NASCAR Cafe. The go-karts are a lot of fun especially the faster cars.
Wednesday we just chilled on the beach and then went to sonic for lunch.
Thursday was another beach day and then an all you can eat seafood buffet called the Giant Crab. The beach was crap that night because of the incoming hurricane so we went downtown to the boardwalk sort of thing they had. I took Tim to Ripley's Believe it or Not museum with Steph. |

| movie night with the girls |
[Aug. 5th, 2004|10:13 pm] |
|
Ok well last night I had a sleepover with Breanna and Sarah. We had a blast watching movies that Sarah isn't aloud to watch at home. We watched the unrated version of all three American pie movies, eurotrip, 40 days and 40 nights, and cruel intentions. It was so funny watching Sarah's expressions during the movies. Well we stayed up till about 6:30 and then woke up around 10 something, which sucked but oh well I made it through the day. I'm really going to miss our corrupt Sarah Merh parties. |

| Dinner with the girls |
[Jul. 31st, 2004|12:42 am] |
|
Ok I just got home from Friday's with all the girls from work. We had a blast and we are going to go out again next week. There wasn't any drama this time although Kim did say really stupid things like "Can I have water with no onion" the sad thing was that she was serious and then she said, "My head really itches..."We all tried to get away from her as a joke then she said "don't worry my mom already checked for ice." She can be so dumb when she talks. She's a lot of fun to go out with because she's easy to pick on and she laughs at herself when she does stupid things. We also told he people there that it was Jackie's birthday which it wasn't but we got a free dessert and an off key happy birthday song sang to us. Next week it'll be someone else’s birthday for another dessert. |

| Shoe store drama and then some |
[Jul. 29th, 2004|01:23 am] |
All right well yesterday was my last day of work … thank god. All right this has been a crazy weekend. Thursday my manager Patty was fired,the store's better off without her, so Jim, the district manager, was there for the day he also brought a new supervisor for our store named Tchatcho, he doesn’t speak a whole lot of English so instead of calling your name he’ll snap at you and do a whole little grabbing motion and then try and tell you to do something when half of what he says sounds like gibberish. Jim redid the schedule for the week and he asked me if I wanted to work lots of hours my last week and I stupidly said sure. He gave me open to close shifts from Friday till Monday. He gave Jackie the same shifts as me so we got to hang out a lot. He also told me I had to train Jackie and Pam.
Then on Friday we had to finish shipment from the day before and of course being teenagers we all talk about everything and everyone. Well we got onto the topic of shoplifting and Jackie told Kim that Pam had stolen a tongue ring from the store well Brian joined the conversation and mentioned Seth and Jason. Kim was pissed that they would have the balls to shoplift from the store and then brag about it to the other employees.
Well Kim invited Jackie and I to go to Friday’s with her that night after the store closed so we could get some real food. Well let’s just say dinner was a three-ring circus. At fist everything was going fine we got our food we had fun chatting and eating. Then Pam and a group of her friends show up wanting to beat Jackie up for telling on her. For some reason Brian told her that Jackie told Kim about the tongue ring but failed to mention the part of the conversation he provided. Pam and her posse were in and out of the restaurant for almost an hour. Kim was pissed when she found out that Brian was part of the group and she decided she was going to cut his hours since she couldn’t stand his lying and instigating.
Saturday was our second 12-hour shift and Sunday was a 9-hour shift. Basically all we did was markdowns and rolled the new shoes into the walls. I’ve decided that I hate shoeboxes with a passion.
Monday was another 12-hour shift full of straightening shoes and redoing the kids and women’s windows. That night I got home and we had visitors over so I got to sleep in the basement because their daughters were staying in my room. I got to talk to Keith for about an hour and a half. My stupid phone kept losing the signal so we had to keep recalling each other. I swear my phone hates me or didn’t want me to talk to Keith. I’m so glad that I got to talk to him because I miss him like crazy.
Tuesday I had to go to the dentist, which took over an hour. All I had to do was get my teeth cleaned but the lady that was doing it loves to talk. Then when our visitors got back from visiting DC I took their 14 year old daughter Joanna to the mall for a while just so we could go somewhere with out her parents. After we got home we played a game called “Apples to Apples” its kind of hard to explain unless you’re playing it. It was a lot of fun.
Then yesterday my last day of work was fun. I had to redo the purse wall, vacuum, and redo the children’s wall display because it was all of course done wrong. Kim was in a lot of trouble this morning because mall security called home office since the back door was left unlocked. Jim was pissed off when I got there. I had to fill out my separation papers today and Jim said that I could come back to work any time so I may go back during my breaks.
Well that’s been my crazy week. I can’t wait 29 more days and I’ll be in Wyoming with everyone. |

| feelings |
[Jul. 11th, 2004|12:01 am] |
I finnaly figured out what it was I've been feeling since I left Wyoming. At first I just thought that I was lonely but then after thinking about it almost nonstop since I left I figured it out. It's the same thing I felt when I moved from North Dakota it's like part of me is missing and at other times it's like I'm lost. No not like my right arm or anything it's more like part of my heart or maybe my soul is missing. I'm not usually a deep person but since I've came back I feel like my inner self was ripped in half and I left half of it out there. I havn't felt this way is such a long time it took me a while to relize what was going on.
When I was out there I felt truly happy and I was able to be myself but out here I feel like I have to be who everyone expects me to be and it can just be so infuriating. I felt free out there and that’s one thing I’ve been missing since I moved to Virginia. Steff has always makes me feel that no matter how badly I screw things up she’ll always be there and love me and she knows that I’ll always love her no matter how far apart we are. She’s been my best friend since almost as long as I can remember and when I moved from North Dakota it felt like my heartbreak seeing my best friend cry because I was leaving. At first I thought that I had hurt her really badly but then realized it wasn’t my fault but I’ve always had trust issues since then because I don’t want to get close to someone only to get hurt. I’m working on getting over my trust issues hopefully my new friends will be able to help me with it.
Steff is like my other half she and I have been like twins since forever she's my goofy half and I’ve missed her goofballness since I moved to Virginia and now I miss it again. Keith always made me smile even when he was tickling me mecilesly and I miss just being with him. I miss Zach acting stupid half the time ok most of the time. Mark being well Mark he really didn't talk too much while I was out there. I may have only been there for a week but it already feels like home.
Being so far away is really starting to get to me and it’s been really hard for me to deal with. I’m doing a lot better especially when I get to talk to Keith weather it’s on the phone or online. He makes me feel a lot better no matter how bad my day was just by saying “Hi”. I can’t wait to get back out there but I think now I can deal with it. |

We went to go see fireworks up by the church. It was raining so we sat in the van and watched them. The fireworks were nice but they went by really fast because of the rain. Dad got in trouble for our fireworks becasue they went into the air. Tim and I had a fight with those little snaps. It was a lot of fun. |

| The Wyoming adventure |
[Jun. 29th, 2004|05:05 am] |
Alright I just got back from Hell AKA the Airport!!! I've been stuck in an airport all day it was driving me crazy. Ok well this past week has been fun and entertaining.
Monday:
I left DC at about 8:30 and flew to Dallas where I got onto another flight to Denver. The flight from Dallas to Denver was entertaining because the guy sitting next to me was funny we talked about how Silly Putty would be confiscated because with a few wires it would look like C4 but really it's just C3 I donno why we called it that but we did. Later as we were nearing Denver this flash of lightning or a static charge went off and it sounded like a gun shot which made everyone jump.
Well when we got to Denver Steph and Abi got me and we went to to wait with their dad for my bag. Then we drove to Cheyenne which took a while but it was fun because we attempted to watch a movie.
Later that night the guys came over and we pretended to watch Twister instead we watched Keith overflow his soda over and over again. Twislers and soda are not a good mix if you want the soda to stay in the bottle. Zach decided that I'm a crazy little sister because he came at me with a pillow so I kicked him a couple times and then he gave up. I also would randomly throw soda tabs at him because he jumped every time. Then when I was sitting on the floor Keith decided to drag me across the floor by my ankles so I had to beat him to. Sadly he enjoyed it...jk. Anyways the night was fun and the people were interesting.
Tuesday:
I met Sami and we went over to Zach's house. We hung out which was nice for a just chill and relax day.
Wednesday:
I got to sleep till 11 which was awesome and then Steph and I went to Mongolian grill with Abi and her mom. The food was awesome and it was really cool how they cooked it. Then Steph and I went to go see Stepford Wives which was an interesting movie.
Thursday:
We went to orientation which was fun and long. I took the math placement test and I got a 5 which is the highest I could have gotten. At dinner I met this girl named Jennifer who's going to be an astrophysics major. She was really cool and we ate dinner together until steph came and she joined our group. My room mate for the night never showed up so Steph stayed over and we talked a lot.
Friday:
We signed up for our classes and I'm taking 17 credit hours two of which are 3 hour labs monday night and tuesday morning. Thats going to suck but I can deal with it. Then we went to Fort Collins to go to the mall. The malls here are bigger but it was decent sized.
Saturday:
Steph, Keith, Zach, and i hung out a Zach's house where we played Worms, and Wario something or other they were both fun games only I kept killing myself in Worms. Keith kept tickling me so I'd push him off the bed or just attempt to retaliate in some form. Keith and I went to his house to get the Zim DVD which was fun. His house seems really nice but I stayed in the entry where I got to play with the dogs.
Then we got kicked out for while so we went to the mall and I kept stealing Keith's hat. It was fun but I'm sure the people in the mall thought we were crazy running through the mall. When we went back to Zach's Keith dragged me off the bed by my ankles which gave me mattress burn since all the sheets had been pulled off. We watched Jeepers Creepers which was in my opinion a creepy movie. In retrospect it was really lame but hey I don't like scary movies so I cuddled with Keith. Then we watched Kung Pow which is a stupid movie but very funny. Then Steph and I went home so we could wake up early for church.
Sunday:
We woke up early to got to Church which was ok but I'm not a big fan of church. Then later Zach and Mark came over and we waited for Keith to get there. He was taking so long steph and I started working on her dress for Halloween. We watched Jeepers Creepers 2 when we got everyone there. Then we went to Zach's house when Steph had to go to a store meeting. Mark and Keith were tickling me double teaming is so not fair. We watched some episodes of Aqua Teen Hunger Force which was a weird show. Zach's mom sent us out to get dinner rolls and she told Keith that she could get me surgically removed from his arm if he wanted. She took Abi home when she finished with the meeting and we watched two of the thumb movies. We went to Kieth house to get a game called Loaded Questions. When we got back Zach and Steph got sent out to get toilette paper so I was left with Mark and Keith who waged another tickle attack on me. Well Mark wound up getting kicked square in the jaw by both my feet and he still wouldn't stop. Zach's brother walked through the door and then backed right back out which was funny. Keith asked him if he wanted to play the game with us and then we had to specify the board game. Steph and I stayed till midnight when sadly we had to leave. The guys walked us out to the car where I had to say good bye. I got two hugs from Keith and I gave him a kiss of the cheek before I left.
Monday
I had to wake up and pack so that we could go to the airport so I could catch my flight at 1:35 well when we got there it was delayed till 3:00 so we walked around for a while. When I actually got down to where my flight was loading at 2:00 it didn't leave till 4:20 so I walked around some more and then I met some guy from my flight who just graduated from college he and I played card for a long time. When our flight got into Dallas our connections were at the same gate at the other side of the airport and I had ten minutes to catch my flight. So we waled really fast and the we sprinted and I still missed it. His flight for Toronto didn't leave for a while and the flight I got transfered to was back on the other side of the airport where we started so we went and grabbed some food and I left to go to my new flight at "9:00" we didn't leave till 10:40 because we had no flight crew. I did get to talk to Zach and Keith though which was nice. I got home at 3:00!!!
I miss everyone from Wyoming especially Keith. 2 months and I'm going to be out there for college!! |

| acting like kids |
[Jun. 17th, 2004|10:13 pm] |
Joe wasn't able to come to my graduation cookout last weekend so he took me out to Olive Garden tonight! We had fun. We were finished at about 6:15 and we didn't want to go home so we went to go see a movie. We went to go see the Chronicles of Riddick. It was a pretty good movie I liked all the action and the plot line.
Well when we got out of the movie it was pouring. So we decided to play in the rain!! It was so fun acting like little kids splashing water at each other and jumping in puddles. We kept laughing because we looked funny all wet. So when it finally stopped we decided to go pick up my car at the mall and Joe dropped me off on the opposite side of the hallway from my car but I went in to see Kim and everyone else. Well of course Ryan just had to be there with the pot head Brian. Well Ryan just started cracking up when he saw me and Brian was all like "Damn your hair is fucked up!". Yeah well everyone laughed when they saw me drenched. It was a fun night. |

| confusing guys |
[Jun. 14th, 2004|01:16 am] |
|
I'm feeling so confused I have a headache. Why are guys so god damn confusing?? Grrrrrrrrrrr...ok better question why do guys act one way when you're in a group and another when you're alone? I donno I'm so confused when it comes to guys I really need help. Everyone thinks I know what I'm doing all the time but half the time I'm faking it to save face. I'm just as lost and confused as everyone else I just don't like to show weakness. Yet guys can bring out every emotion including tears with out too much effort. I hate being confused. |

| Brian's party |
[Jun. 13th, 2004|12:11 am] |
I just got back from Brian's Graduation Party. It was a blast. When I first got there Brian's brother's girlfriend waved me in and was all like "At first I thought Brian had Mandy Moore at his door." Nope just me. Brian's parents are really nice and funny. We had hot dogs and burgers for dinner which was catered.
Ms. Stone and Ms. Blacious (sp?) showed up with gifts. They gave Brian a Chicago CD and a little kids soccer game which concisted of a goal and a foam ball. We went inside to put it together and of course the boys wouldn't read the instuctions so I helped out. It was fun to put together but increadibly small.
Then Brian's dad gave him a brand new car for graduation. It is so awesome. A red '04 Celica with the sports package. It speeds up really fast. He gave me a ride which was fun.
The boys went inside to play Texas Hold 'em with a five dollar buy in. After a while I went into watch and I wound up being the chip girl. When the guys decided to buy back in I gave them thier chips. It was fun watching Edgar win $25 after he paid $10 to play.
Yeah so some of the guys may show up at my cookout tomorrow which will be fun. Graduation is comming up wich is nice. |

| graduation stuff |
[Jun. 11th, 2004|12:13 pm] |
All right yesterday I had to wake up to early to go to school to do the senior check out which was a complete waste of time. I got there at about 8:45 because I still had to get all my teachers to sign off that I didn't owe them anything, then I had to wait in line from about 9:15 to 10:30. I wasted my morning doing the stupid check out when I could have told them that I had everything turned in since freshman year.
Then today I had to go to graduation practice at 8:00 only to sit around for a half hour before we could even go into the gym to find our seats. Well we finally started around 9:00 and it took till 11:00. Oh well it just means we're one step closer to being finished forever. One more practice and then we have the real thing, which will be awesome. |

| senior banquet |
[Jun. 9th, 2004|10:13 pm] |
All right I just got home from the Senior Banquet. It was really nice. Everyone was there ok well maybe not everyone but everyone who matters was there. I got to wear my pink dress from Chameleon that Patty and everyone at work bought me. Sadly I had to wear the only pair of shoes I own that kill my feet.
I had a blast hanging out with Breanna and Steph the whole time. I sat at the same table as Kat but I mostly talked to Breanna and Steph. The years almost over and it's sad that we are all going to be going our separate ways soon.
Tim Knowles (sp?) made up a slogan for our class during Mrs. Byres speech. His was 2004 we are Hard Core while my favorite from Mrs. Byres was 2004 senior privileges we want more.
Oh I got a stuffed Eagle too because I stole Breanna's flier with the star sticker. She didn't really want it so we play fought for it.
I'm never going to forget these last four years. If offered the chance right now to repeate high school with all the same people I would turn them down because it's time to move on and grow more. If offered the same chance twenty years from now I would gladly do it all over again because high school was fun and carefree. Good job class of 2004 we're finally done. |

| party at Nick's |
[Jun. 6th, 2004|10:31 pm] |
Last night was awesome!!!! Nick's party was a blast!!! All the teenagers went down to his basement where we just chilled out. We played pool, poker, ping pong, and we watched tv. Oh yeah we also had to watch the horse race where the horse everyone wanted to win lost. It was funny watching Nick freak out.
I played Texas Hold 'em with the guys sadly I lost two dollars. Oh well in actuality I owe Edgar a dollar and Brian covered my first dollars worth. Yeah Katie Woodside and Mr. Lucey wound up spliting the pot Katie took $3 and Lucey took $5.
Yeah after a while most people started drinking. which led to beer pong. That is a very interesting game. Nick sunck five shots in a row so he is now the Beer Pong Champion. At ten Nick's dad started to get worried when twenty more people just showed up so he told nick to kick a bunch of people out. I got kicked out because I was sober along with all the new people and a bunch of others.
Well next week is Brian's party fun stuff. |

| We have escaped from HELL!!! |
[Jun. 3rd, 2004|11:52 pm] |
Well today was my last day of high school...THANK GOD!!! After 13 years I have finnaly finnished with my required schooling and am now an adult.
Yesterday I went to the mall (Like I don't spend enough time there!) because I was bored. Well I wanted to find Brian some crazy cards since he liked my purple ones so much. Sadly I couldn't find any purple cards or other colors besides the boring normal red, blue, and black. When I went to Target I found these cards with designes on them I bought myself some cards with flowers and Brian some cards with rows of spots. I gave them to him today and he liked them well he sowed them to Edgar and he stole them until fourth block!
I got invited to Nick's party on saturday and Brian's dinner party next weekend. Fun stuff!!! I can't wait for graduation when I'll actually cry. I'll miss all my friends but school is HELL it's only good for socializing. |

| amusment park trip |
[Jun. 1st, 2004|10:47 pm] |
Ok today we had to got to first block for a half hour. I had Kevin and Ali sign my yearbook. Then I watched Brian and Christie play Texas Hold 'Em, I think I finnaly have all the rules down. Then we all loaded onto the charter buses to ride to williamsburg for like 3 hours. Well Sarah has this card game kinda like Mash only with cards it was fun.
Then we finnally got to Busch Gardens!!! It was a lot of fun I hung out with Breanna and Sarah. Breanna didn't want to go on any of the rollar coasters so she was the bag girl and we went on the kiddie rides for her. After we finnished eating lunch I ran into Victoria from my England trip which was awesome, she was also there on senior trip. We road on all four rollar coaster which was awesome, Sarah made me sit in the fron row on Apollo's Chariot, It has like a straight down drop right at the beginning and all you can see is down. Then there was the Alpen-I don't remember the rest which your legs hung down on.
We kept running into the same groups of people. We were right behind Nick and Brian on the River rapids which was awesome because they kept cracking everyone up while we waited in line. Nick tried to draw a smiley face on his arm with sunscreen it didn't really work too well. They kept giving everyone high fives everythime they went throught the turns in the line. I love my crazy boys.
Breanna and I stood at the end of the escape from Pompii ride and got soaked, my shorts are still damp. It took forever to brush my hair out so it would dry. Then we got some awesome icecream in these huge waffle cones. After we finnished the icecream we went to go watch an Irish dance show which was pretty good only I was exausted from all the walking we had to do to get to the few rides we went on. The rides are so far apart that we did more walking than riding. Oh well it was a blast anyways.
Well our bus had to wait for Nick, Brian, and Sasha to get there because they were running late. Nick actually got lost and wound up in the wrong parking lot because he was following the crowds. Tim got a little annoying on the bus but I became the queen of the bus when I busted out with the cookie's and candy. Well we found out that Tony was lost and they didn't know where he was so his bus had to wait for a half hour until they found him.
When we got home I went to Tony's with Nick, Brian, Maria, Christie, and a whole bunch of other people. They have like the best pizza ever. Well when I went up to order someone took my seat so when I came back Nick made room for me to pull in another chair. I had fun eating pizza and talking. |

| crockett park |
[May. 28th, 2004|11:58 pm] |
Ah today was nice the senior class got to go to Crockett Park ALL day. I had a blast at first I didn't think I would have any fun because it's just a buch of pavillions, a lake, and a field. Almost as soon as we got off the buses most of the guys took thier shirts off. Well first Steph, Breanna, and I just walked around and I just happened to fall down the tiny ass sairs. I mean read the signs Becki!!! "Stairs are slippery when wet" lol it hurt but I'm ok.
Then we started to play frizbee(sp?) and it went right into one of the prickly bushes so I had Adam Shilp help us get it out with his lacross stick.
After that got boring I went to go watch the guys play Texas Hold 'em. One of the security guards came over and the guys were all like "we're not playing for money!" liars! So then he wanted to be delt in and he took a stack of 20 chips, each chip was worth 20 cents. So that kind messed up the whole chips thing but he was out in one hand so everything went back to normal.
The line for lunch was like a mile long but we all still stood in line which took forever. After lunch Breanna, Steph, Jen, Jefe, and I all played a game of frizbee which was fun. Breanna got voted off the island she has to pack her shit and leave.
Then Breanna and I got a paddle boat and when out for an hour. We would paddle around for a while and then just chill which was nice. For some reason we went faster going backwards.
For the last part of the day we watched the guys play volleyball and one guy was playing guitar and singing. It was a fun day even though I got slightly sun burnt. OH I GOT A PICTURE WITH BRIAN!!! Finally I mean I've known him for 4 years and this is the first picture we are both in together. Happy day. Bush Gardens is going to kick ass!! Only 2 real school days left I can't wait. |
