Why shouldn't truth be stranger than fiction?

19th March, 2006. 6:56 pm. Spring Break!

I had my Orgo final Monday afternoon, my final paper for Sociology of Religion due Tuesday, and my Physics final Thursday morning. I'm glad they're all done.

I had to drive Miles to the airport at fucking 4:30am, my friend Sean was like "that's commitment, I would've let him drive himself and picked up the car later". Oh well, I wanted to say bye to him and I know he'd do the same for me.

I found out about Study Abroad, they have a spot saved for me for Australia and I'll get to go as long as my gpa doesn't drop after Spring Quarter.

My scheulde for next quarter is:
MWF 10am Cell Bio
11:50 Physics II
2:40 Metaphysics and the Mind
T 12:30 Cell Bio lab
R 12:30 Physics lab
W 8am Meditation

I left Friday morning. It took me about 5hours to get mine and Dana's room ready to check out. I hate cleaning. I met my room and some people she worked with for lunch at this Irish bar and I had a delicious cornbeef sandwich with coleslaw on it. Then I took Nana to PT. Then drove to Canada with my parents so I could drink with dinner at this Irish bar but the line to get in was way outside the door and we came back and just ate at Louie's. Then I went to Mossburger's for a party and drank Wild Turkey and Labytt Blue, and kicked ass at beer pong.

Yesterday we celebrated my dad's 50th birthday with the family. 1 case of Miller Light, 1 case of Labytt Blue, 3 12packs of Killians, a box of mixed Simernoff flavors, 1 liter of Grey Goose, 1/5 of Grey Goose, 1/5 of Captian, 1/5 of tequilla, 1/5 of jager, and about 50 jell-o shots; all for 17 people (3-5 of whom weren't drinking). Oh and my aunt brought a 1/5 of Ozuo (spelling?). So many people got so wasted. I drank a ton and mixed a ton and didn't get sick or have a hang over, just like my mom :] Then I napped all day today.

I'm so excited for the road trip to Cali with Miles. His mom was telling me that she's gunna feed me the best food when I'm there and we're gunna go canoeing on the river behind their house. I'm so excited it's going to be so much fun.

Yay dinner's here. L8r days!

Current mood: cheerful.
Current music: watching The Rainmaker.

21st February, 2006. 5:53 pm. Pearl Jam~I Am Patriot

And the rivers shall open for the righteous (X2)
And the rivers shall open for the righteous, someday

I went walking, with my brother
And he wondered, oh, how I am
Said what I believe with my soul
Ain't what I see with my eyes
And there's no turning back this time

I am a patriot, and I love my country
Because my country is all I know
I wanna be with my family
People who understand me
I got no place else to go...
I am a patriot...

I went walking, with my girlfriend
She looked so fine, I said, "Baby, what's on your mind?"
She said, "I wanna run like the lions
Released from their cages
Released from the rages burning in my soul tonight"
I am a patriot...

And I ain't no communist
And I ain't no socialist
And I ain't no capitalist
And I ain't no imperialist
And I ain't no democrat
I sure ain't no republican either
I only know one party, and that is freedom
I am, I am, I am...

I am a patriot, and I love my country
Because my country is all I know

And the rivers shall open for the righteous (X2)
And the rivers shall open for the righteous, someday
Someday, someday, someday...

Current mood: bouncy.
Current music: Pearl Jam~I Am Patriot.

15th February, 2006. 12:39 pm. Hmmm....

You Are 60% Boyish and 40% Girlish

You are pretty evenly split down the middle - a total eunuch.
Okay, kidding about the eunuch part. But you do get along with both sexes.
You reject traditional gender roles. However, you don't actively fight them.
You're just you. You don't try to be what people expect you to be.
How Boyish or Girlish Are You?


Who Should Paint You: Salvador Dali

You're a complex, intense creature who displays many layers.

14th February, 2006. 3:52 pm. Happy Valentine's Day!

So it's been awhile. Things were kinda stressful for awhile but it's turning out ok now, I'm still kind of freaking out about school. Things with me and Miles are really good again.

Yesterday was my 20th birthday, I feel old. I'm not a teenager any more, I'm a real adult. For the first time I actually felt older on my birthday. I got lots of Happy Birthday wishes from people. IMs from: Mal, Stefano, Caleb, Kiersten, and Big Tom. Facebook Wall Posts from: Kyle, Jenny, Soledad, Julian, Kiersten, Dana, Mallika, Kelly, Big Tom, Brit, Katrina, Dave, Sander, Jodi, Mal, Nick, Sarah, Laura, Becca, Kevin, Stefano, Ry, Alia, Amanda McKay, Steve, Skippy, the Chato, Lauren, Ashley, Jillian (my mailbox buddy), Evan, Aaron, Amber, Carlisle, Amanda, Jessie, and John-John. Facebook Messages from: D, Kristy, Emily, and Ryan (emma's ex). MySpace comments from Rich and JD and a LJ post from MBC. Amy sent me a text message. I got calls from Brit, B, Nana, Nana Ruth, Michael, and my Mom & Dad. Mondy sent me an eCard. Then a bunch of people wished me Happy Birthday in person. Thank you everyone! Dana sang me to me over a candle on a piece of cookie dough which was cool and really funny. Dave's mom sent me 3 things of homemade cookies, which are so fucking delicious!! Me & Ry went out to lunch to Olive Garden for our birthday, it was good. Then Miles bought me 2 roses, a bottle of wine, and took me out to dinner to Epic Bistro; it was really good. Plus earlier in the day he surprised me when I was in the shower :] He was gunna get me a spiny ring like his for my birthday but I couldn't figure out finger I wanted it on or what size my fingers are, but he said once I figure it out he'll get it for me. I thought my birthday was gunna be shitty but it turned out to be really awesome.

I bought the movie Wizards on eBay for $10 with shipping. It's such a great movie. Patrick came to visit Lyssa for awhile.

Me and Miles have been reading Ender's Game together, it's such a great book I can't wait to finish it. We're gunna read The Giver next cause he hasn't read it and it's such an awesome book.

I've been getting to do cool things in the lab. Like a week or two ago we did a Cell Lysate to get out the proteins from the cells from my cell line. Today we got to do a Protein Assay, it turn out that good but he said it because it was my first time ever doing it and he wants me to keep trying it til I get consistent data.

I think me, Miles, Alyssa, and Patrick are gunna go on a double-date tonight for Valentine's Day. Probably no where fancy cause none of us have any money.

I was supposed to go home this weekend coming up to celebrate mine and my Dad's birthdays, but my parents asked me to come home the weekend after cause they want to get the house cleaned up so Miles can come with me. I wonder if this time they'll let us sleep in the same room cause my cousins are supposed to be coming out too. I can't believe my Dad's gunna be 50, he's so old.

Well I'm off to do some homework. L8r days!

Current mood: thankful, happy, and loved.
Current music: Mitch Hedberg.

28th January, 2006. 11:32 am. Who throws their girlfriends frisbee into a tree on purpose?

Honestly. So yea yesterday was really nice out so a bunch of us were playing frisbee on the quad and Miles, on purpose, threw my frisbee (it's one of the ones with the hole in the middle) into a tree. I was like 'what the fuck? You're an asshole, if you didn't wanna play with it you could've set it on the ground next to you or something, you didn't have to throw it in a tree.' Dave backed me up and was like how could you throw your girlfiend's frisbee into a tree? Then when I told Dana about it, she was like geez how old are we? Dave went and it got down for me, so everything was cool. Also, while we were playing Miles was, as were all of the guys (minus Evan), showing off infront of a large group of girl prospies...yea, exactly.

Things have been going really well lately. This last week I had tests in Orgo & Physics and a paper due for my Sociology class, it sucked a lot. Also, Miles's roommate, B, had to leave, it was really sad. But once I found out he had to withrdaw I got all of his close friends together and we all went out to dinner to Mongolian BBQ. Then his last night here me and him went shot for shot (which ended up not going the way either of us thought it would). I was really drunk and ended up crying and telling him I didn't want him to leave, it was all very sad. I miss him so much sometimes. I've been sick since school started and I finally started feeling better last weekend. I just realized that I said all of the bad things that happened and none of the good things.

Me and Miles had our one year on Jan 8th. We went out to dinner at Food Dance and it was delicious! And we went to a cheap movie, Aeon Flux, it was ok. I made him a cd and he got me a really pretty necklace :]

Study abroad applications are due Wednesday, I gotta get on top of that. I'm applying to Perth and if I don't get in there then Thailand (if it's open) or Spain. The Thailand program will probably be completely filled up. I'm still pissed at my parents about the whole study abroad thing.

Me and Miles have been spending so much time together, I feel bad for not really spending time with my friends any more. So last night when Miles didn't wanna go out, I called up Aylssa and went out with her Brit, Eric, Chris, and 2 girls I didn't know. It was so much fun, I miss going out. I feel bad for Dana too cause she's been left alone in the room a lot, part of it is because I've been spending so much time with Miles and the other part is because I've spent so much time studying, and me & her both know that we ususally can't get anything accomplished when we were near each other. I think it's cause I always just wanna talk to her about stuff, plus she's WAY more entertaining then homework. Hopefully I will be hanging out with everyone more, I figured if they thought I was neglecting them they'd say something to me about it but apparently not. Oh well.

I was supposed to start volunteering at the Senior Citizen place last week but the lady had to cancel my meeting so I'm going on Monday to meet with her. I can't wait to volunteer, I miss it so much. I love helping people and it's so rewarding.
The research with Dr. Moore is going well, we get to start doing our own experiments on the cells soon so I'm really excited.
I did Habitat for Humanity last weekend and it was a lot of fun. We painted the resell store.

Amy's gunna come out to visit for my birthday!!!! *claps* I can't wait, it's gunna be so much fun. I'll be home the weekend after my birthday to celebrate mine and my Dad's birthdays. I can't believe he's gunna be 50 and that I'm not gunna be a teenager anymore. Wow.

That's everything I can think of right now. L8r days! Peace & Love

Current mood: listless.
Current music: Watching Team America with Dana.
