[24 Jan 2008|12:38pm] [ mood | happy ] i'm realizing i don't really need this anymore. that makes me pretty damn happy. oh, and my real cute girlfriend does too. mm, girlfriend. i don't know for how long this will stay here, or if it will, because reading everyone else's, for the most part, feels like i'm right back at high school again. weird.

[31 Dec 2007|05:45pm] [ mood | thoughtful ] hm. end of 2007. excellent. overall, it hasn't been too bad of a year. it's been an academically shitty year for me, combined with first semester and the last leg of senior year. i've already promised myself to do better, but i know i will. mm, psychology and gender studies. socially, this year was amazing. i've made so many friends/acquaintances at college and i'm really looking forward to the next year, two, three, or four years to share with many of them. i miss some people from high school, but college more than makes up for it. i feel like i can be more myself there than i can be at home. romantically, this year started off pretty poorly and ended on a relatively high note. i really like her. a lot. but i'm scared that she's too concerned with images to want to be with me. after all, you don't tell the girl you like you miss her more than your pet at school. that means you like them quite a lot, doesn't it? enough to date them, i'm hoping. i made her christmas present, it came out pretty cute. gosh, even now i'm smiling thinking about her. i really need to stop this liking people who are potentially going to be quite a blow to my morale. ah, well, i'm not afraid of falling and ripping my knees open. i'm just afraid of the pain. i'm looking forward to you, 2008, don't let me down. oh, lyrics! they're related to new year's eve, so i thought i'd post. nothing really related to my situation presently, but i'm sure someone else can appreciate it on that level.

[29 Dec 2007|01:04pm] [ mood | stressed ] seriously, seriously fuck being home. i am honestly more stressed out being home than i am during the semester with all the bullshit i take on. god almighty. WORST EVER. see a movie

[23 Dec 2007|12:24pm] [ mood | restless, but bangin' ] i'm ready for this break to be over already. is it bad that i'm so eager? i guess part of it is because of someone. :) and i miss all my friends, too. a whole lot. school is a nice distraction when i have it. the fact that i don't now leaves me very restless--and i'm in that state anyway. i don't think i made the dean's list this semester. and while i'm upset about it, i think i've come to terms with that--for now. full-on science was a bad choice. haha. i'm excited for all my classes this semester--i'm going to do so much better. :) i've been listening to a lot of rilo kiley lately. i'm pretty into them. they're pretty bangin'. oh, ps. i'll be in until january 12th(leaving 13th). .. is it january yet? i hope everyone else is having a bangin' holiday and will have a great christmas. it was nice to see everyone at the chorus concert. :) specifically, i am proud of my little emily lynch. HEY, HEY, YOU, YOU.. i haven't heard shit about the cast list. someone inform me, please! i'm just as nosy as i was in high school! [3] went to see a movie

[07 Oct 2007|12:11am] [ mood | contemplative ] there is nothing like coming home from college after feeling very misplaced. i fit here and it doesn`t matter who i like or why. it`s nice. it`s also nice when your mommy gives you birthday presents and you can take a nap in the afternoon while your mommy offers to do your laundry for you. i thought i would never miss this. but i`m glad i did. (i miss you in your absence, but i know you do not miss me. reality is settling in.) And so I'm reaching out for the one And so I've learned the meaning of the sun And all this like a message comes To shift my point of view I'm watching through my own light As it tints the shade of you Hold my wine hold it in Nobody's lost but nobody wins I can't sleep I can't speak to you I can't sleep see a movie

[04 Sep 2007|10:25am] [ mood | exhausted ] ( was it just a game to you? ) [5] went to see a movie

[27 Aug 2007|07:48pm] [ mood | calm ] okay, i fucking love cedar crest. end. i love third floor steinbright because it is ultimate. i have so much shit to do and i love it. ps: no one apply here because I WANT THIS COLLEGE ALL TO MYSELF. HAHAH. there are a few NEPAers repping down here, too, which i love. i can`t get you out of my head. see a movie

[21 Aug 2007|07:38pm] [ mood | excited ] i move into my dorm in two days. i have all of my shit, except an umbrella. how i forgot that, i have no idea. i`m retarded. i packed up a lot of my life. i`m really excited now, less nervous, more sad. i`m really going to miss my mom, no matter how bad a rap i used to give her. i was such an asshole, i should have gotten over myself in high school. oh well, too late now. i`m becoming a big girl now(i hope), with big girl underwear. i`m finally really ready for college, i think. i`m a little sorry i didn`t visit you guys at band camp, but i think i`m ready for a little separation from high school first before i even think about visiting anything. i`ll probably come to a game, so don`t worry. you`ll see me again and i might just be a little older, a little wiser, a little more world-weary and a little hotter(doubtful). maybe a little less single. :P we`ll see. oh, valley, how i`ll miss you and not miss you at all. also, best of luck to all of you leaving this week if i haven`t talked to you.  livin` on the edge, yeah! p.s.: as if i update this ever, i don`t know if i`ll be updating much in college. IM me. :P [4] went to see a movie

[18 Aug 2007|11:33pm] [ mood | annoyed ] my fucking PS2 won`t work. it apparently needs to have a little boost in the form of tightening some circle thing inside of it, putting the laser/lens closer to the disc since it is old and has gotten weak. i guess i`m going to have to go to EB or Gamestop to find out how much they`re going to gouge me for. fuckers. five days. five--almost four--i`m scared. like, really scared. but i`m excited. fuck the valley. i`ve dealt with this bullshit long enough. i should probably finish packing. ... yeah, right. p.s.: i worry about you more than i should. i guess i shouldn`t be as overtly concerned as i have been. i`m just as stupid and naive as i always knew i was. damn. [5] went to see a movie

[19 Jul 2007|01:53pm] [ mood | calm ] being home is crazy, but i enjoy being around here when i`m here(not for whole weeks at a time, though, that shit`s insane).  i`m still really neranxcited(nervous+anxious+excited) about college, it`s going to be wonderful and terrifying as everything unfamiliar is for the first time. i`m getting a whole bunch of crap, a HP laptop with a great warranty(!), hopefully replacing my iPod battery before the warranty runs out, getting books(seriously, this shit`s expensive. you don`t realize how quick stuff adds up). i almost wish i was staying home because it would probably be way cheaper, plus i`d probably have my car and a job but... i can`t stay in this cesspool any longer. maybe sophomore year i`ll plan shit. :P i hope all of you seniors are fully aware how much bullshit your senior year is. it seems like it`s really going to blow, but some things are okay. don`t sweat the small stuff, after all. ps. if anyone would like to give me free money for college, feel free. ;) see a movie

[27 Jun 2007|01:49pm] [ mood | ecstatic ] OH MY GOD I LOVE CEDAR CREST.  seriously.  i am still reeling at how amazing this college is for me and this is only a preview, my friends! but seriously, my classes are amazing, the people i met in my major are amazing and i love them. for those of you considering a college that is a women`s college-- IT IS NOT DYKE CITY, OK? i`m not kidding when i say that i only met one lesbian and i talked to a fair amount of people. most girls have boyfriends and, at least with cedar crest, there are a LOT of opportunities to meet dudes and there are WOW AMAZING NEARBY CO-ED COLLEGES. what a profound idea. so don`t rule out the college because OMG NO GUYS :( :( :( :(. actually, the girls seem a lot nicer since there aren`t guys that OMG EVERYONE`S COMPETING FOR. jesus. anyway, i`m taking an honours writing class where we are reading The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood and another novel that examines gender and race.  I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THESE THINGS MY WHOLE LIFE.  my prof. is the gender studies dept. head and i`m going to be SO excited to talk about gender in a way that might not exactly fit what everyone else thinks. i`m up for a little devil`s advocate. haha. i have an 8 AM every day, which sucks, but hey, i`m done at 2 most days! i`m also taking a theatre class. i have 18 credits. hahaha. I AM SO READY!!!!! [3] went to see a movie

SATs! [19 Jun 2007|03:39pm] [ mood | cleaning ] OKAY, i know you high schoolers are preparing yourselves for the SATs pretty soon SO in cleaning my room, i found a huge SAT test book. it was probably 20-30 bucks. it`s all practice tests, which i have never actually written in the book. it`s basically brand new. if one of you want it, i`ll give it to you for like.. 5-10 bucks or however much. :) COMMENT OR TALK TO ME. i`d really like to get rid of it. haha. [1] went to see a movie

[14 Jun 2007|07:36pm] [ mood | ecstatic ] AFTER THREE MONTHS OF CALLING PHEAA 85 MILLION TIMES I`M FINALLY OFFICIALLY GETTING MONEY FROM THEM. oh my god what a rush. i`m going to college FO REALS and i don`t need to be biting my nails, thinking about it every 3 seconds. :) i`m going to college! I`M SO EXCITED/SCARED/ANXIOUS. in 9 days, i`m going to cedar crest, taking 85 tests and doing class selection. i`m a big girl now, who would have thought? i can`t even believe i`m leaving this place so soon. two months and 9 days. SICK. i`m so excited to get a laptop(who knows when), and I HOPE MY LICENSE REAL SOON. p.s.: i`m super excited for all of the graduation parties. p.p.s.: i`m in such a good mood that i`m listening to crappy old music. hahaha. [4] went to see a movie

hmm. graduation. [07 Jun 2007|11:03am] [ mood | contemplative ] yes, i`m graduating. AT LONG LAST. and yet, i feel trepidation seeping into my bone marrow and making me aware of exactly what i am leaving behind. i guess it doesn`t really matter, not all that much. but this has been the preamble to my life, the first eighteen years behind me and i have many before me--i hope. everyone`s fear makes me anxious. i don`t know, i guess it`ll hit me(as baz lurmann says it`ll blindside me on some idle tuesday) suddenly, like a sinking notion in my gut and i won`t know what to do about it. i`m afraid, i`m afraid to leave and go to allentown away from all i`ve known until this point in my life. but there, i`m sure i`ll make new friends and keep some old and be thankful that i just need to walk through a park to visit one of my favourite people. i want to go on dates and feel pressure and be comfortable with myself in a strange place. i`m sure i could do those things here, but look how the dating thing worked out for me--not very well. ;) but you know, i`m thankful. i`m thankful for every wonderful and shitty thing that`s ever happened to me, it shaped me into the girl--lady, perhaps--that i am. we are all inherently good people. and i`m thankful i know you all. so thank YOU(yes, even you) for being a part of my life, for impacting me in ways not even i am fully aware of. don`t forget that every little thing counts and affects you, positively and negatively to keep the equilibrium. and to those of you worried you`ll--BOO HOO--never see me again... bullshit. you know i`ll be back to this cesspool. ... just.. never for very long. haha. congratulations, graduates of 2007. the preface to the novel of your life finishes tonight, and the first chapter begins before you know it. take a breath, fake a smile or smile genuinely for the first time, and charge forth. it won`t be the last time you do it.

[29 May 2007|01:06pm] [ mood | gloomy ] ( dear mother, ) sigh.  dear june 7th,             i`ve been waiting for you for a while.  should i text your phone and ask when you will be here already?  thanks. sincerely, veronica. [4] went to see a movie

[10 May 2007|11:09am] [ mood | excited ] i felt like garbage this morning, hence why i am home. i have basically given up on getting senior awards, because honestly, what would i be getting? two 30 dollar awards? yeah, 60 bucks would be nice but.. eh, i think i have more accomplishments than that to say about myself. so i get mail from cedar crest today and apparently... I GOT THE THEATRE SCHOLARSHIP!!! i don`t know if i was the only one who got it and i`m not sure if it was out of pity or i was just THAT good not being able to breathe properly(hahaha) or i was better than everyone else who auditioned(hmm, maybe i had great stage presence?), but still $1,500 is nothing to sneeze at. seriously, i feel so great about this school that i cannot even wait out the rest of the month and the summer. there have been many snags i`ve been caught on as of late, but, i think they`re beginning to ease up. although, i still would rather just sleep through the rest of this month and finals and summer with the A/C on and forget i have responsibilities. haha. :) i love my friends. i finally feel like a senior. it`s so close, i`m so close to being a BIG GIRL NOW and leaving home and missing my mom and dad and abby and emma and cookie and i`m fucking scared. but i`m taking my future by the horns. and i have a roommate. and i`ll have kelsey, for who i am so thankful. haha. plus, allentown is gorgeous and i`ll be busy. naps outside and homework and writing.. oh, i`m excited. [5] went to see a movie

[09 Apr 2007|01:11am] [ mood | satisfied ] i`m having a lot of conflicting emotions welling up to the surface right now. ( hmm, it has been a while since i have used you, lj-cut. ) i like breaks and i like thinking and ignoring the fact that Amby-Pamby expects me to generate 10 pages of notes from probably 8 pages of bullshit text. suck my balls Frankenstein. why couldn`t you be 1984 instead? hey, how many of you guys remember playing O Magnum in concert band when i was a... sophomore? damn, i feel old. nostalgia makes me sad. :( [9] went to see a movie

[05 Apr 2007|01:45pm] [ mood | content ] everything is actually rather nice presently. i`m pleased. thank you. perhaps not everything in school, but i don`t need that shit. i`m sick of dealing with the stifled, stunted high school valley mindset. frankly, it makes me want to vomit. i can`t wait to get out of here. ONE MORE QUARTER TO GO i`m glad i`ve found something that i didn`t expect to show up. i`m thankful for the chances i`ve been given. i`m thankful for a lot of things in my life. i am excited for the coming months. :) my guitar is beautiful again with her new strings. tonight is going to be friggen awesome. also, CONGRATULATIONS are in order for all of those cast/involved otherwise with Dames at Sea. [2] went to see a movie
