update i suppose

I will discuss Vegas later. TOO much. But it was an amazing trip:) & many good pictures.

So after being able to smoke in every building, me and Nathan have decided to quit cigs. ( really alot of why I'm doing it because some how in the past 2 months bf has began to chain smoke and smokes a pack a day, and we both agree it's NOT okay. So I'm gonna quit with him)

Also, NO FAST FOOD..ever again. Well that isn't really possible, but I really don't want to eat it at all. I'v gained weight which was my goal, but I want to stay at the weight I'm at. And I want my stomach to be flat.

Also I'm going to start going to the gym @ fairland. Kt said I can go for free and I should take advantage.

I decided all this at Vegas. I'll be so proud of myself if I can do it.

Also!!! I took a soc class last summer and i loved my teacher . She is a social worker & said if a job opening came up where I could be a intern she would let me know. She emailed yesterday and said she has a possible one for me. eee! i'm really excited someone from over a year ago remembers me and thinks I would be a good social worker

PRANKED!l

I am normally not one to advertise gifts, esp from my boyfriend. But this is kinda funny. So me and Nate have been watching pranked on MTV. In case you don't know it's a college humor show about SHITTY MEAN pranks. Example: this guy was supposed to cook his girlfriend breakfast. he forgot, she got mad and went outside to tan. He later cracked 54 eggs and threw them on her while she was tanning. Then hit her with a bag of flour and poured syrup on her. Nathan would be girlfriend less. another one, was it was this girls WEDDING day, and she got a pimple. So her bf said to put alcohol on it, and of course it started to burn. So he told her to put the blow dry on cool and put it towards here face, well he had put baking powder in it and it got allll over her face. Nathan would be fianceeless.

So all Friday kept telling me he was gonna get me good soon. I was like sure sure. He called me Saturday from work and said he got me a present!(I loveee presie's no matter how small! I'm some kind of child trapped in a 22 year olds body.) He often brings me stuff, it's usually something from his salon, or a shirt or a cool belt or something. nothing major. But they still excite me. So him and Jamel come home and I'm naked, so I put on a towel and come downstairs for my present. He said I had to open it down here sooo I went upstairs to get dressed and opened my present...a little jewelry box was inside the bag, and inside the jewelry box was a wonderful...rubberband and Nathan screaming, I GOT YOU! I was soooo mad! Not only because I didn't get the present, but because I HATE being fooled, andddd I asked him to pick up juice on the way home and he said he couldn't cause he spent all his money on my present. SO I kick him and said I'm leaving to go get juice. And Nathan goes "baby before you can you get me something from the fridge" I say no. He say's "No seriously". I say, " I know you're being serious, and I'm seriously telling you No". I'm on my way out the door and He's is beggging me, and me being the child I am (because in all honesty I was slightly annoyed, he didn't pick up the juice if he had money) walked out the door. I ask Jamel if heee wants any juice, and told Nathan he could go get his own. He runs after me, picks me up. Puts me infront of the fridge, opens the door and there is a newwww box sitting inside the fridge. I didn't want to open it in fear it was a paper clip or other random office supply. BUTTT it was this.....:)





I love love love loveee Nathan:) I'v never gotten nice jewelry from anyone except my mom/gma. I felt reallly effing special, and I know he saved up for this! &NO it's not an engagment ring. pft, long time before that happens. But I am still really scared of further pranks to come. Esp since I asked if I got a presie after all of them, and he said no. And I seriously told him if he every did anything like that guy did on his fiancee's wedding day, I would murder him at the alter. He knows my anxiety could not take baking soda in the face on my wedding day.

Oh and fyi, the girl who got eggs on her later got her boyfriend back. He was bending over in the yard and she got a fire extinguisher and put it down his pants and pulled the trigger. Nathan & Jamel said they couldn't imagine how the extreme cold would feel on their balls, but it would be pretty bad. Now I need to think of a good prank for Nathan.

gimme theseeee....

pleaseee?

yes.

Sometimes, I feel the fear of uncertainty stinging clear

And I can't help but ask myself how much I let the fear

Take the wheel and steer
It's driven me before
And it seems to have a vague, haunting mass appeal
But lately I'm beginning to find that I
Should be the one behind the wheel

Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there
With open arms and open eyes yeah

Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there
I'll be there

So if I decide to waiver my chance to be one of the hive
Will I choose water over wine and hold my own and drive?
It's driven me before
And it seems to be the way that everyone else gets around
But lately I'm beginning to find that
When I drive myself my light is found

Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there
With open arms and open eyes yeah- Incubus


good words.

The Starting Line has the right idea.

"It says....

completely shut yourself out from cellphones,
computers and reality sometimes.
perhaps go to bonnaroo.













indulge in icecream, & certainly if it's on your bestfriend's icecream truck.






.





play with children. it will remind you how easy it is to be happy.
& life is not so complicated all the time.









love.










occasionally perform highschool memories.











cherish every moment.


& take this ride."

I am not making an attempt to be any sort of hippie. Ryan, got me on Nada Surf last summer, and I enjoy them. I don't get some of their songs, but they are pretty legit & have been around for a bit.
