ok, it is definately time....

although im not really sure what i should talk about, ive never been one to spill deep dark secrets, because the world isnt ready for that, whatever, that was stupid, i think im less ready to share mysellf than the world is to recieve me...

man i love college... im happy i am at this school sometimes because it is setting up the rest of my live living toward God and becoming more Christ-like.... which i was hoping for from this college.... but sometimes i wish the people here were more real.... youve got a lot of people that sweep everything under the rug, that are unapproachable because they never seem like they've got problems, and it all kind of gets old, and i guess i am becoming more like that, in the sence that i dont really like to open up...openly..!haha, i guess i do with close friends on a close level, but not like the whole world like through xanga...

i know people say that while youre in college you'll change your major this-and-that number of times... i actually like, and love, my major (nursing for people that didnt know...) but sometimes i doubt that i will be good at it... i doubt that kind of thing a lot about my future.... will i be a good < insert here>....

i recently have tried to cut back on complaining, because it is a direct toward God saying, " i dont like i thtis way, and i "think" my way is better" which is not what I'm about.... but i think i am just geting tired of the back and forth weather... like stop teasing me with nice days, and stop teasing me with ugly days... but what-ev.......

I am taking BioChem, Politics and American Culture, Old Testament Literature, General Psychology, Nursing ( 2 hour class, complete with a 2 hour lab, plus 2 hours a week of "on your own time" skills that need to be practiced) and a Rock Climbing class, which is.... interesting!

Next fall, i was planning on not taking any classes and working down here, BUt... because of my scholarships and FAFSA stuff and other financial things, it would be a better financial-move if i just stayed a full time student and take filler classes... so im pretty disappointed in that... but what-ev.... it will al work out....

I went to the pet shop yesterday ( just because i miss my animals at home and they make me happy...) and i was playing with thie Cocker Spaniel puppy, that--no joke--- could do summer-saults (?? is that how u spell that? im an idiot...??) i wish i was graduated, just so i could have gotten that puppy!! o well...

im done, i think, and congratulations for making it to the end! the Princess is free from the dungeon, and you have saved the entire human race!

ok, i figure i should post my totally exciting two stories of today and yesterday!! this is the longest ive ever written, but it is SOOOO worth it!!

*-*- ok, yesterday was a pretty grieving-emotional day for me, and i had been crying and matt had to leave me and go do homework, so when i was heading back to my dorm, i realized that i had the car and the car keys, so i put gas in the car and headed toward Xenia... i realized i wanted to do something wild and spontanious, and piercing my bellybutton sure as heck fit into that category!! so i pulled up to this Advanced Auto body store and go in and this is the convo...

ME--> "hi, my friend told me she lives around the corner of a Tatto shop.. could you tell me where that is?"

GUY--> "o yeah, thats yada yada yada"

and then i go to it and its in this kinda dark alley with no ont around but me and this guy smoking outside of the shop that said OPEN.....

ME--> "hi, do u work here?"

GUY--> "yep"

ME--> "do u do belly button piercings?"

GUY--> "yep"

ME--> "how much is it?"

GUY--> "$37.28"

ME--> "ok, lets go!!"

then i walk in an pick what i want, and then we take care of the paper work, and then i lay down, he does it, and while were tlkaing, the convo goes like this...

GUY--> "pretty sweet car "

ME--> "o yeah, its my boyfriends.. he doesnt know im here right now!!... actually... no one knows im here!!"

keeping in mind, that was really stupid to say, but o well, its in the past!! kthen i com back and only tell/show Ashley, Michelle, and Melissa (my roomie!)

AWESOME STORY #2

ok, i wake up, get ready for a shower, hop in, start cleaning out my new peircing, and then i start getting light headed and like im gonna pass out or barf, so i start getting ready to get out, even though im not clean, to go sit down... i didnt make it, i totally passed out in the shower, and my leg was sticking out.. and i couldnt understand why i was just sitting there, not telling them im ok and not moving to get up, until they find me, and they(the girls in my unit) start telling me i can wake up at n e time now.. i was semi-unconcious!! i could hear them and i knew what was going on but i could not for the life of me talk or open my eyes or move controlled, because i was kinda whipping my body around, all in just a towel!!! i was so embarassed because i was naked with all these ppl helping me, but i couldnt do ne thing about it!! YIKES! and the EMT ppl came, and there was this guy Alan, asking me if i remembered him from some refugee camp weekend... and i was like WTC!?! haha, but then some EMT lady dropped something on my head, and i could only just lay there in a towel and take it!! then they start putting my on a streacher, and when we were going down the stairs, i started slipping down!! that woke me up and the thought of matt not knowing what was happening, so i forced myself to tell them to call matt, and they said they already did and he would meet me at the hospital, and inthe ride over in the truck, i saw this guy and asked if he was alan, and i told him i was sorry i didnt remember him, and he was all "its ok..." making me think that i have amnesia or something... then like 5 minutes later he tells me that he was mistaken and that he thought i was someone else!!! o goodness, so i get to the ospital and they get me a bed, but im still only wearing a sheet!! they hooked me up to a heart monitor and an automatic-every-10-minutes blood pressure taker... and then a nurse comes in and looks at me and goes," honey, are you naked??" NO JOKE! and im like,"YEP!!" so she gets me a very fashonable gown, and then matt and michelle (my RA) come in and there is a lady getting ready to take my blood for like 6 samples to test, and so she did that, and HAD to tell her that i had good veins, and then she was done, matt came back in( he was scared of the needle!!) and then the IV guy came inand i needed a bag of fluid and matt had to leave again, and michelle me and matt were laughing and having a good time, until i started getting really nauseous and i asked matt to get me a pail or somethig, but i was SOO scared i would have to barf in front of them!! i didnt, but then the hospital heard that i was nauseous still, they gave me this STRONG nausea medicine that totally knocked me out, and then after about 4 or 5 hours in the hospital, matt walked me out to the car and then i came back and all the girls were so worried and they gave me hugs which made me feel special, and then i slept until about 700!!! ok, wonderful stories, and thats all.. o, except matt LOVES the belly button bar!! ttyl!!

SO EXCITING!!!!!i cant stop thinking about moving out of my room, transporting my fish..... getting new sheets... having to box up my winter clothes, then exchange them for summer clothes when it gets cold.... cant stop thinking about managing my room space wisely, and last nights writing last minute papers!! hehe, i am just so excited!

well, i dono what else to say, so ttyl!!
