Five days until Christmas. It's difficult to grasp. I have had plenty of somber, un-festive moments lately, so it seems surreal that Christmas is so damn soon. I have a lot of shopping left to do. I have Christmas cards to mail. I have presents to wrap. I have a half headache and a supreme lack of motivation. I want Christmas cookies. I am restless...

Happy New Year!

yr profile pic is amazing
At this point, I have been on holiday break for approximately 11 days. One of the perks of attending THEE Ohio University is that winter break is about 7 weeks long. Normally I would type out the word for the number 7, but it's break which means I don't give two shits about such scholastic accuracies. Ah.

I definitely think that looking back in the past is the best way to start anything where you're looking inside and trying to improve. It's important to understand why things worked out as they did, just for the fact that it does bring some closure - a sense of it at least.
Some classes are just going to suck like that history class you took. Considering the circumstances it worked out pretty decent in the end. There will always be those classes that stick out in infamy because they were just hellish - I've got 4 semesters in so far and have 4 such classes that just plain sucked and I hated though I had to take them. This also reminds me of something that I'm running into myself - the sooner the GPA goes below 4.0 the better, since it means much less pressure on you now. Maintaining mine was the source of a lot of stress and freaking out on my part in the beginning of the semester and I have since conceded to less studying to preserve my sanity and to just do as well as I can. Easier said than done.

I love reading your posts. that's all oh - you are amazing
I am losing my mind at times, it seems. Waste of space. That's what this is. Beware.
I digress. If you stumbled upon this, and you're intrigued, read it. I feel as though I owe explanations. They are past-due. And you are my counterparts, so I care. I consider you someone of importance.
Autumn quarter flew by. Two more weeks and it's back home to...

Oh yes. And it's the title for my photo book box that are released spring 2008... suspended is one book, emotions the other. I'm up at 7 AM - laundry. Yey!

Hi how are you doing? I like your blog. keep hanging in there and dreaming dig. good luck to you
I am feeling better than I was in my last post. Some time has passed, and I have both grieved and reflected. Recent events had left me feeling wrecked and isolated. Rinse and repeat. Nothing will ever replace the presence of my beloved pets. When I greet my humble home next month for the holidays, the barren feeling will be there. I know this. It's...

nice photos. music is a great way to help comfort the soul... and iTunes fucking rocks of course. it's been a while since i've added to my library because of legal issues, but I digress. glad to see you on the site and hope you will soon be merry, but keep posting anyways... 
Monday was very difficult for me. This is not going to be an eloquent posting. I'm not going to try to sound colorful. It's not going to be fun to read. It's not fun for me to write. But I have to. I feel a tremendous amount of grief. And guilt.

My condolences. Though time will eventually heal your wounds, I know you must be going through a very difficult time right now. Perhaps school is just the distraction you need to ease you into accepting their passing to a better place. I'm sure both of them sensed your great love for them and loved the time you spent together.
elsie:
I'm so sorry. I have the same feelings that you have about family pets and it saddens me to think the dog I've had since I was 7 years old will not be living much longer.
On a happier note, I am definitely interested in shooting with you in the spring. I'm definitely willing to wait! I'll be looking forward to it!

Oh me, oh my. What little I have updated regarding college and the like. I will refrain from ranting. I will avoid a hugely descriptive narrative. It is past my bedtime, and I have miles to go before I sleep. I will simply say that things are fine.
Classes are what they will be -- tedious, time-consuming, and triumphant at times, but more so disappointing....

i live in an on-campus apartment this year and there is a bit of a sense of independence to it. it really felt neat going there for the first time nearly a month ago.
ive also got my car on campus, which has also proven to be valuable. useful for trips to walmart, white castle and the like. ive slowly learned the roads around school [the local roads and how to get to the major highways], and there are a lot of shopping centers and restaurants nearby. it's also helpful when going out with SGNJ, much better than having to rely on others for rides.
i recently got some interpol and really like listening to it, though unfortunately my music listening time has been rather short as of late.
you live in a really neat dorm. 24 hour quiet hours really are amazing, since the dorms on the other rutgers campuses near me can get pretty loud...

awesome pics hon 
Recent activity summed up in sentence fragments. Lazy Sunday. Spent a lovely day at home with the family, the cats, Maurice, and Daisy. Ate dinner (veggie sausage sandwich on rye with lettuce, tomato, and mustard, Stover's macaroni and cheese, and cherry cobbler for dessert). Watched some movie starring Chris Rock that was pretty decent. Packed for school. Clothes and clothes and clothes and shoes and...

I haven't written in some time. But life has been pleasant. Not overly joyous. By no means horrific. Pleasant. Complaining is trivial and useless and ridiculous and typical.
Since I've written, I've turned 20. My 20th birthday was very, very nice. Here are some things that I did:
1. Went out to eat with my sister, Kendra, and Kayleigh. Olive Garden. Mmm, goodness.

Hey, thanks for the comment. Yeah, I got all my tattoos and most of my piercing & stretching at Evolved. Good place. Partly because the people are good, and partly because it's in walking distance. 
Anniversary time is a cryish, cuddly, cutesy occasion. I've enjoyed mine. Dan compiled a photo album of the two of us complete with snippets of lyrics to "our love songs" on pink heart post-it notes. He also made me a mixed CD of those said love songs. Gush. I cried. We cuddled. It was cute.

Got to admit it's getting better.
Money and work are getting better. At Baker's, I have given in and volunteered to fulfill other workly duties, such as washing dishes and making pizza. For instance, I was scheduled to was the dishes for five nights this week. Washing dishes isn't really that rad, but at least I can pace myself and take breaks whenever I want....
