I tell myself i like everything and that im easy going, but in reality im not. i like everything if its my way, and im easy going when im happy.. which often times im not. i dont care what people think of me, but i do think i struggle with how i think about myself-- maybe thats why im so quick to judge everybody around me. i tell myself i do things in other people's best interest, but most of the time theres always a little bit of myself taken into consideration, which is why over time ive been managing to push the people closest to me away one by one.. so far im down two of my best friends. i dont think ive done much to change, and i always tell myself id love to- but its hard to see who you really are until you're shown your worst. maybe im writing this out of emotion, but i really dont think i saw just how much i was tearing down and picking apart almost every relationship ive had and have still until now. even the friends i still have, i could be closer with if i could just let more things be. i realized if you spend so much time picking everyone else apart you never really have that much time to see what youre doing wrong yourself. i wish i had taken the time to think about this before, but you live and learn- right? ive started to realize that maybe im accusing everyone else around me of being wrong simply because i dont wanna be wrong myself- something im sure ive heard a million times, just never bothered to listen to. which is something i wish i had listened to a million times ago, because you dont realize how happy you were and could be until you lose that source of happiness that you were selfishly overlooking all along. its all part of growing up though right? i can see that being in love is about putting other people first and loving them the way you would love yourself, but you cant really do that if youre too busy trying to only make yourself happy. i guess if i had thought of that before id be in a much different place right now, but some things are too broken to be fixed, and sometimes theyre not..however i feel lucky to have that lesson on my hand at the same time because i will take that lesson with me into any new relationships i build because i dont think i can live with knowing that i single handedly ruined something else that could have been something amazing. i wish i could be one of those happy people that plan to take memories with them,but i dont. they hurt. theyre a reminder of how things were and maybe in time i'll grow to love them - but for now i think id be better off not remembering. i hope that someday i'll be in that place where im happy, especially with myself- so that im able to be happy with the people i love and who love me back.. i think thats most important and above most other things that is what i wish for the most. life isnt about just being beautiful, its about feeling beautiful because of the people who really honestly love you.

So work was interesting tonight. Working 3-11 isn't as bad as I thought Plus, it's Sunday, so that's a time and a half. Excellent money, I must say. annnnnnnnnnd, I saw Whitney, which made me even happier. :)
School started. It's alright I guess. My classes are real hard but I mean, oh well. But Kie is in every single one of my 5 classes. Which makes everything most definetly quite excellent.
Project is absolutely amaaaazing. I thought I would miss the whole Honduras thing. But I really don't at all. I love everyone in this project. And hopefully, I'll get a part in the play. That would make everything oh-so-wonderful.
I really miss my "ex-seniors" aka, Lindsey Amanda and Heather. College really does fuck things up. No matter how many times you tell yourself it won't. It does.
OH YEAHHH! .. I saw Devin last week <3 We madeout, and talked, and madeout some more. I miss that girl so much. gahhhh
Derek slept over on Friday. It was, hmmmm interesting. haha Then Saturday we didn't wake up until 1:30.
Then we were gonna go cosmic bowling with Marina, Nora, and Hannah. But it turned out that The Bowladrome was closed. Bummer. But instead we all went to Outback and the Hanover Mall. It was good to see Marina again because I miss her like whoa. And I effing love Hannah and Nora <3 So it was good. Oh yes, Derek too. But that's self-explanatory.
Yeah okay, longest entry ever, I think yes. But I mentioned like evvvverrrryooooooone. Which means I expect you bitches to comment on this. hehe
Okayyyyy. Bed time. I have work tomorrow. LAME. whatever, Goodnight lovers.

I think the worst possible thing that could have ever happened to me, just did. I'm such a mess, and I just don't know how to handle all of this. It hurts so much, physically and emotionally. I got beat up, pretty bad. These black girls tried to steal my purse. There were 5 of them. I tried to grab my purse back and one of them punched me in the face. I have a huge fatlip, and my jaw is swollen. I punched the girl back and she got a bloody nose. Probably the scariest thing that's ever happened to me.
Yeah.

Well I just got back from NYC on Friday. It was the most amazing
experience of my life. I met some new people, reaquainted with old
friends, and in the end had to say goodbye to some of the best people
I've ever met in my entire life. Everyday was different from the
previous. We helped at soup kitchens, food pantrys, clothing banks, and
shelters. I heard so many inspirational stories from those who were
once homeless and came through and changed their life around. One man
was actually homeless for 17 years and turned his life around, made a
change, and now teaches younger kids, inspiring them to do the right
thing.
The hardest part about this experience was definetly the goodbye. I had to say goodbye to Meg,
which was the hardest thing in the world for me. She is graduating this
year, so she can't go on any other trips. She is one of the most
amazing people in my life. She inspires me in so many ways and I
respect her more than anyone else in this world. I'm going to miss her
so much. It also hurt to see Katrina leave
because she is such an asset to these trips. Her inspiring words, and
intelligent ways, helped us along our journey through helping people
less fortunate. I met an amazing girl too, named Chantal.
She is craazy. Just like me. We hit it off right away. We had so much
fun together this week, making hard work into fun times. I'm going to
miss them so much.
So after I arrived home, stopped crying after about 7 hours. I just
layed in my bed and thought about how I made such a difference. I'm
going to try and volunteer at places like this at least twice a month.
It's the least I can do. I have so much, and these people have barely
anything.
Being home, is really tough. I miss the big city. New York is amazing.
But, when I got home, everything seemed so different. I did miss alot
of people, but it seemed as if everything changed. I missed Lindsey like
crazy. She is staying with me in 2 weeks and I'm so excited about that.
I hope that we can really bond even more than we are now, seeing as my
time with her is limited. I don't know what I'm going to do when she
graduates. I'm going to miss her more than anyone. But I know that life
is full of changes, and this is just another one. I fucking love that
girl and I wish her all the best.
Oh yes, a special Happy Birthday shoutout to Amanda Michelle Selig.
<3 The big 18! I love you baby. I misssss you like craaazy too. I
hope you get everything you want, because you deserve that and more :)
To everyone else, Derek Kiely Marina Becca Meghan Sammi Nora Heather, i'm sorry if i forgot you. I missss you all like craaazy. Can't wait to see you most of you tomorrow :)
NYC Mission Possible '05- I will
never forget the amazing times we shared. You are all such amazing
people. I'm so glad I got to experience this with you. <3 I love you
so much.
