orionsmiling

...is irritating. I guess I am just frustrated with the fact that it's impossible to do things without money hence needing a job, but once you have the job it is impossible to find the time to do the stuff you wanted to do in the first place. Whatever.
Anyways, as obvious, I started my new job. I am on my second week and like it so far. The people are really nice and it's a nice laid back office. There are only seven of us and most of the time my boss isn't here. Not much else to say about it. Most of my time here has been spent scanning and filing stuff,w hich is fine, because I get paid well to do it. They have assured me that I will have more exciting things to do in the near future :)
In other news, Steve's cousin, Tietjen, came to visit this past weekend. It was nice to meet her. She is Steve's favorite cousin and he has been wanting us to meet for some time. We went out to eat a few times, went bowling, went to the rents for a nice homecooked meal (she has been living on an island for 6 months), and hung out. Ironically Sunday we were to drop her off at a friends in Nashua who works with her on the island. When I inquired as to the friends name, it was someone I knew from like 10 years ago from the Nashua High marching Band. Haha, so when we dropped her off we had a little reunion, it was nice.
Not much else going on, Steve and I have been doing well lately but unfortunatly our relationship is like the tides and who knows when the next upset will be...I try to think positive but find it difficult...
Ok, that's all for now, back to work!

Ok, so a lot has happened since, well since the last time I wrote in here, which is I don't know when. But I'm just gonna start from where I'm at now. Steve and I are doing ok, we are going to therapy with my old shrink to try and talk out some of our issues. So far it is going ok but I feel a bit weird going to couples therapy with a boyfriend...but if it fixes the one problem we have then it will all be worth it.
Besides that, I just got a brand spankin new job and I'm very nervous/excited/apprehensive/scared shitless. It is a good job, with good benefits and great money, I just hope I am what they want and that I like it enough. The people seem really nice and hopefully I can handle the job and exceed their expectations.
In other news, on 9-8-7 I became an aunt for the first time! My sister, Christina, gave birth to a beautiful little girl named Liliane. I went down to North Carolina to spend the week with her at the end of September and miss her terribly. She is so amazing and perfect and is a wonderful reminder of how amazing the world is.
I am also excited about the new job because I am hoping that by leading a much more normal and consistent schedule I will be able to lose the weight that I put back on at the end of last year. I am going to try to eat healthier and work with Weight Watchers again as that helped me to lose over 30 lbs last time. I am also going to start doing minimal exercise. I still can't do too much as my ankle (which I sprained in mid August) is still healing. I am walking almost normal now but still wake up with pain and it still gets sore if I do too much walking or push it too much.
I have been trying to hang out with as many friends as possible lately and have been fortunate enough to see most of the people that I have reached out too...I am still hoping to catch up with some friends down in Nashua...only 30 minutes away and yet it feels like they may as well be in California!
I am also trying to de-stress my life as much as possible. I have had a lot of stomach/gastrointestinal health issues lately and feel that most of them can be attributed to stress. My stomach was horrible during the trip to North Carolina and as I ate little there and stress is always higher for me when I am in my sisters presence I have little doubt that stress is effecting me very negatively. I am hoping that the new job (which means money coming in for the first time in 4 months) and the therapy is going to calm things down enough so that I can eat normally, have less stomach problems and have less stress without having to resort to pills (again).
I am going to Vermont this weekend with Steve and my parents to enjoy what should be the best weekend for fall foliage. I am pretty excited since this is my last weekend of freedom before I start my new job.
Not much else going on. Once again I am goign to try and update this with more frequency, I am hoping that the more consistent life schedule will assist with that. As always, I wish you all health, wealth and happiness :)
Love to all.

This is a userinfo Interests meme. newreflections picked seven things from my userinfo interests and i had to explain them. To have me pick you, comment:)

birthdays
I actually don't like my own birthday as I usually have a bad day on it, but I love other people's birthdays. I love giving gifts, singing Happy Birthday and just celebrating in general, especially with little kids who get sooo excited!

bubbles
I love bubbles! They are so much fun to play with. I get fascinated when I make one by accident in the shower because of my body wash or shampoo. I love the way they reflect light and I love the way a bubble bath can make a bad day seem ok.

french fries
Yummy :) I am very picky about my french fries but I am usually willing to try any kind. My favorite are the ones at restaurants like TGI Fridays, Applebees and Ruby Tuesdays. I hate steak wedges (the big ones) as they tend to be less cooked and way too potato-y (this coming from a girl who has a major love for potatoes, shrug)

ireland
When I went to Ireland I was amazed at how beautiful it was. Everyone always remarks on how green everything is, but I never realized how many different shades of green there were! It was so breathtaking. Besides the obvious grandeur and beauty of Ireland, the people there were some of the friendliest I had ever met while visiting as a tourist anywhere. When I asked a man where a post office was, he started to tell me and then walked me the whole way there (well over a mile) even though he was on his way to work, his excuse, "work will be there when I get there."

night
Nighttime has always been and will always be my favorite time. It is peaceful, quiet and my time to do things for myself. During the busyness of the day I am often bombarded with phone calls, or (when i had a job) working, or going to school, or asked to go do something, and while all those things are fun, I really enjoy late at night, which is actually probably closer to morning, when I can just sit, relax and enjoy some quiet.

sophie kinsella books
I love these books. It started with Confessions of a Shopaholic and took off from there, she now has four in that series, plus The Undomestic Goddess. She has also written other books under her real name (Kinsella is a pseudonym). They are funny and light reading. I read them when I am upset or tired and don't want to think. My brain doesn't have to work too hard and I can just laugh at all the messes that Becky Bloomwood, the character, gets herself into.

313
It's hard to know what to say for this one...I haven't been there in years. It is a club, that is distinguished as primarily a gay club and I used to go there several times a week. I started going there after my incident at Keene and I was trying to get out of my shell and meet some new people to try and get better. I did meet some wonderful friends there and still talk to some of them today.

Yep, I officially suck at updating. But it's ok...it's not like anyone reads this thing anyways! so here is a very very diluted version of what has happenned since march:
-i turned 24 (shitty ass birthday this year)
-i graduated (made deans list last semester)
-i got a job
-i moved into a two bedroom apartment with Steve
-i lost a job
-i finally visited nyc!
-i saw a broadway play (rent)
thats pretty much it in a nutshell...yep my life = boring. im too tired for this right now. peace.

So I am back from Disney...Steve and I had an incredible time. We did all four parks (Magic Kingdom, Epcot, MGM, Animal Kindom) in four days and hopped around each day. We got to see pretty much everything we wanted including Soarin', The Extreme Stunt Show, Expedition Everest and Turtle Talk with Crush (which was fucking amazing :). We also saw IllumiNations, the firewors display at Epcot, and we also went to Downtown Disney. We did the Kilimanjaro Safaris twice and saw zebras, giraffes, hippos, tigers, monkeys, gazelle, rhinos, cheetahs, lions and tons and tons of other cool animals. When we got back on Friday we drove to Vermont to spend the weekend with Steves parents and also to bring some of his school stuff home...now I have a raging cold complete with sore throat, coughing and congestion. woohoo for me. It was probably the 18 hour days we pulled, lol. Anyways, I am at Steves so I don't have pictures to post right now however I will post some here tonight or tomorrow. Hope all is well with everyone else, I am going to go take a quick nap. MUAH!
P.S. This is a link that will take you to facebook where I have put up 60 pictures of my trip (more to come...I took 600, lol!!!) I will let you know when others get posted and I will try and post some here later.

Tomorrow Steve and I are leaving for Disney World!!! I am so so so excited! Last night we found out what the Extra Magic Hours are for which parks when we are there (almost everyday a park opens at least 1 hour early and stays open up to 3 hours late!) and planned our days according to that as well as the three dinner reservations we have. Also sent an email to Corri to let her know the details so that hopefully she can meet up with us when we get there tomorrow night. I really hope to see her because I miss her so much :( Steve and I also watched a Disney Vactaion video that ironically my parents got in the mail, it's all about the parks and resorts so that you can plan a vacation, lol. I just finished all the last minute packing plans and cleaning. My friend Lia is staying at my apartment to keep Boo and Triton (Steves fish) company so I cleaned the place really well and got stuff ready for her. Well, I am gonna sign off for a few days cos we are heading down to my parents in five minutes (they are taking us to Logan tomorrow). I will take a gazillion pictures (would you expect anything less?) and post them when I get back. If you have any special requests for photographs (a charcater, building, ride or anything) post it to me tonight or email me and I will check it before I leave tomorrow! And don't worry Krystle I will take a ton of pictures of the Epcot ball for you :) Hope everyone has an awesome week! Love to you all. MUAH!

So yeah, I skipped my classes today but I had a good reason, kinda, well for one of them anyways. I didn't end up falling asleep until close to 5am this morning. I tried everything to no avail, I eventually went and slept on the couch since sometimes if I change locations I can sleep. I guess it worked cos a few minutes after I moved out there I did fall asleep, but when my alarm went off at 6:30 I was like, uh uh aint happening. So I went back to sleep then Steve came out at 7, woke me up and brought me back to my room where we cuddled until he had to get up to leave. Then I went back to bed under the impression that I would get up and go to my 12:30 class. Didn't happen. I woke up with enough time but I just plum did not want to go so instead I am sitting here typing in my livejournal. Yay for being a productive human. Senioritis is definitely kicking my ass.
So I definitely got some potentially good news last night. My friend is helping me get a job at the school. It would be in the admissions department and I would travel, recruit and read applications. The downfall, it's only 10k a year. BUT, they pay for grad school. I didn't know if I wanted to do grad school but several of my teachers have taken me aside and said that I should go and since I can't afford it this would be an awesome way to go about it. I know the money sucks and I might not even get the job but it would be so nice to have a job lined up for when I graduate. Besides if I find something better suited between now and then I can always change my mind...
So I have to work at 6 tonight (until 10:30) so for the next 5 hours or so I am gonna pack for Disney, clean and do some other fun random things. I can't wait for Disney!!!! Sooooo excited!!! Plus, the best part, I might be seeing Corri when I go down there cos if she can she is gonna drive over to our hotel the night we get there and hang with us for awhile!!! Yay!!!
Ok, not much else to say, I may post again later...after work I am going over to Steves and spending the night. I have to bring his suitcase so that we can pack tomorrow after our classes are done and then we are coming to my place Friday night and heading to my parents Saturday afternoon. Then Sunday it is off to Mickey Land!!!
Love to all!

So today I had my three classes. Gender and Text (where my teacher humiliated me by telling me in front of the whole class about how much of an asset I am and how intelligent I am, yikes), Playwriting (where we read my play in one act and critiqued it, not bad they actually liked it, phew!), and Modern Art (where we finished up going over slides cos we have a test on Friday). Then I went home cos Steve and I were having a little tiff and when I got home he showed up about 5 minutes later and apologized. Such a good boy. Then he took me out to lunch at Applebees and then we went back to my place, took a very yummy two hour nap (i heart naps) and then when we woke up at 7 I helped him do his Business Law II test, his Marketing paper and his Leadership vision. Yeah, I am a good girlfriend. :) Then I printed out my study guide for Art and am now heading to bed where we are gonna watch The Interpreter. Hopefully I will get some sleep because I have an 8am tomorrow!
Love you all!

Today after waking up from almost 11 hours of sleep I went to my 19th Century British Fiction class where I learned that I read the wrong book (oops), got a test back (90, yay) and watched a horribly boring movie with a couple of hot guys. Hey, it beats doing real work. Then I drove down to Nashua to do laundry so that I can pack for my Disney trip :) I was there from about 1 unitl 5:30 and had fun talking to my mum and watching a Disney video. Then I headed to school, chilled in the library while I waited for Steve to be done with a group project and then headed to the student center to buy senior week tickets and tickets for six flags :) As of right now I don't have a roomate which kind of sucks but oh well...hopefully I will get a single and then I can stay with Steve :) After that Steve and I went to pick up his car from Nissan, $1000 later we headed back to my place then wound up at Target (where i bought some travelsize stuff for the fricken retarded airplane) and then Burger King for dinner. All and all a very eventful day...three classes tomorrow and then hopefully a nice relaxing evening.
Love to all!

Yeah, not really. I feel like I have been sick forever even though in reality it has only been about a month. I didn't go to my gender class today because I didn't sleep well last night. I wound up doing to Steves at just after midnight because I was freezing my tail off here (don't use heat) and we didn't get to bed until after two. So I woke up after not a lot of sleep and not feeling great so I ditched. Then I get an email from my teacher sAying,
"Hi Holly,
Was concerned when I did not see you in class today. Everything okay? Let’s talk.
Professor Les Becquets"
This teacher likes me a lot and any time I miss she feels like there is some huge problem that I need to discuss like she is my therapist and she can fix me. I guess I should be thankful that she cares. meh.
I wound up going to my second class only because I'm afraid of the teacher and therefore terrified of missing and I told her as much which made her laugh. Then I had to go to a lecture of hers at 6 on "Virgins, Wives and Harlots" which was a powere point presentation about the virgin mary, eve and mary magdalene and how they have been portrayed through the years it was actually pretty good.
I got my cap and gown for graduation today...I still can't believe that I am finally graduating after 6 years. Also found out about "senior week" this year all the seniors (commuters included) will be on campus for the week (liability because of drinking) and we get to do lots of fun things: Chunkys Cinema Pub, Hypnotist, Midnight Breakfast, Mohegan Sun overnight trip, Spirit of Boston Cruise, Student/Faculty Games and BBQ, and Six Flags :) It's only $120 (plus an extra 20 for Six Flags) and my parents said they would pay so I'm doing it :)
After the power point presentation I followed Steve to Nissan to drop of his SUV and then he took me to dinner at Panera. Now I am at home and I am going to read, watch a movie and go to bed. I think I am going to my parents house to do laundry because my Disney trip is in less than a week and I need to start packing which means I need to do laundry! :) Hope all is well with everyone else. Miss you all. MUAH!

So, went to see Premonition last night after a fun fight with Steve. The movie was really good. A little hard to follow at first but then you picked up on things. I reccomend it :)
When Steve and I finally woke up at 12:45 today he left for his townhouse and I stayed behind until he called with a plead from his roomate to come over so I could humanely kill his fish. When I got to the townhouse some idiot next door (read: lacrosse players) got their jeep stcuk in like a 6 foot snowbank. They were digging it out for like an hour and a half. Retards.
Anyhoo, now I am going to work on some homework and help Steve with his. Can't wait for this week to be over so I can go to Disney!!!
By the way...HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO KRYSTLE!!!!!

Happy Saint Pattys! So this morning I woke up to about 10 inches of snow on the ground. Awesome. I did get a nice surprise though: Steve brushed my car off, dug it out and then pulled it into a nice clean spot for me :) After that we went to UPS to drop off these 3 fricken bags. This is a long story but I'm gonna tell it anyways...I ordered a mini backpack from Amazon.com cos I wanted something small for Disney (7 days!!!) Not only did I get the bag later than they promised but they sent me 3 duplicate bags as well. So then I get an e-mail from them saying they realized they sent me three duplicates and can I call them. So I do and the woman on the phone is a complete bitch to me. She wants me to leave them so that they can be picked up. I explain that I live at an apartment building and that they won't do that. So she then said that she could send me the shipping label via email then I could bring it to a UPS store and ship them out. Of course, this is a major inconvenience on my part. Plus I said, "won't I have to pay for the box they use to ship it?" she swore up and down that I wouldnt. Fast forward to today. I bring the bags, hand them the shipping label and the woman says, "you have to pay for a box." So I paid for the fucking box but I got a receipt and I am going to call them first thing Monday morning and if they don't reimburse me the $3.29 I am going to call and cancel the shipping and then call the BBB and send an email to Amazon (it was sent by an outside company, E-BAGS, not Amazon) letting them know of the problem. I know it's only $3.29 but it's the principal of the thing. It was inconvenient for me and it was their mistake, why should I have to pay for it? Literally.
Ok, moving on. After the UPS Store (grumble grumble) I had to go to the grocery store to pick up like 10 items. Wound up walking out with a cartload because when I go with Steve I end up going down every aisle and finding more shit I think I "need." It all worked out well in the end cos he paid for all my groceries :) He's a sweet boy.
After that I bought lunch for us at Subway and then we came home, ate and watched Boondock Saints, which he had never seen. He loved it, of course :) Then because I have been ridiculously tired lately I took a nap. And then pretty much from 4:00 until 7:00 I cleaned. I swept and mopped the floors, Steve vacuumed (did I mention I love him!), then I worked on cleaning out my closet (still not done) and then I made us a spaghetti dinner complete with yummy garlic bread. Not much else to say. I can't believe Disney is only 1 week away!!! The only other exciting thing to say is that at 9:30 we are leaving to go see 'Premonition' in Londonderry, which looks pretty good. I love Sandra Bullock. The end.
Ok, well that is all for now. Hope everyone had a great St. Pattys Day!

I can't believe it's snowing. It was so warm just a couple days ago and now we are having a foot of snow or more dumped on us tonight. And can someone please tell me why this couldn't have happenned last night instead so I could have enjoyed a snow day?
I only got like 3 hours of sleep last night. I had to finish typing up my play for playwriting workshop and it took me until about 2 (I got out of work at 10:30 so I didnt get to start until 11). When I got into bed with Steve I couldn't sleep so I went back out and worked some more on the play and wound up not getting back into bed until 5:30 and eventually fell asleep at 6:00 or just after. My playwriting class is a real joke though. There are only 7 of us in it and none of us pay attention. For example today I watched The Emperors New Groove on my ipod. Yep. Then I had Modern Art, we watched a video on Magrite (who did the bowler hat painting in the Thomas Crown Affair among many others!) and even though I usually enjoy those videos I almost passed out like 10 times. At least she let us out 20 minutes early. Then I went back to Steves and we fell asleep for 3 hours, lol.
So even though it snowed, Steve and I went to TGI Fridays for dinner because we promised Katie we would. She was so happy we showed up. Plus I must admit- that oreo cake is divine :)I had a small salad to start and then the alfredo :) very yummy but now my tummy kinda hurts so I'm thinking that I overdid it on the dairy, oops.
Now I am sitting at my place tooling around on the computer because Steve, in all his infinite wisdom, decided that it was crucial that he go get gas and get his laptop from his townhouse. Really what he wants to do is go play in the snow with his SUV. As I tried to explain to him SUV does not stand for Super Unstoppable Vehicle but he just loves pushing the limits. I just hope he is careful.
Not too much else going on. I'm not scheduled again next week (for like the 7th week in a row minus ONE shift) which pisses me off. I am trying to take Tuesday and Thursday from Karen again. Hopefully she will let me. I had planned on using all the money I made from work these 3 weeks for Disney, but so far I only have like $100 which I doubt will cover it considering you spend about that much just on food.
Ok, I think I am going to post some pictures now cos I haven't done that (or anything on LJ for that matter) in forever. Hope you enjoy!
( Pictures )

Hey...I figured I would try and update, I am so bad at writing in this thing. I really want to because it would be nice to have a record of my life but at the same time my life is going by so fast I feel like I don't have the time. So anyways I am just sitting at my place waiting until I have to go to work at 6. I asked someone else if I could take their hours since I again was not scheduled. So I picked up Tuesday and Thursday 6-10:30. Not great but it's better than nothing.

Yesterday was one year since I have known Steve, we celebrated by going out to dinner :) I can't believe it's been a whole year; holy shit we have been through a lot! The past 3 months have been the best ever for us, we have really committed to each other and started to build a life together. :) Yeah, corny I know but it's an amazing feeling.

Today is one year since Jasons ski accident! I am happy to say he is doing amazingly well. My parents are going to Boston with the Schrecks tonight to celebrate, I'm jealous.

I had two classes today, 19th century British Fiction and European Conquest of the New World. My first one we had a test so luckily I got out after like 45 minutes and then I was able to go back to Steves townhouse and sleep for almost 2 hours before I had to get up and write a paper for my second class, lol. Of course I woke up with only 40 minutes to spare but I still managed to get something done. The teacher lets us do re-writes so I will just redo it later.

Anyways, tomorrow Steve and I are going out to dinner because a friend of ours just passed her waitressing tests so we promised we would go in. Not sure what I am doing yet this weekend. I may be hanging out with Julie but I am not sure yet. Poor thing was really sick last weekend and we had to postpone.

Can you believe the crazy weather we are having?! It was like 68 yesterday and tomorrow it's gonna snow! Last night when Steve and I left Shortys it was 61, by the time we got to my house 1 exit away it was 51. It dropped a whole 10 degrees! Gotta love New England...Ok, well I am gonna take yet another nap (I can't believe how tired I am lately) before I have to go in. Hope everyone is doing well. MUAH!

Can someone just tell me everything is gonna be ok...?

Yeah, I know I haven't updated in here for forever but I have still been reading everything that is going on in all your lives :) I miss everyone...
So I am not sure how long this update is gonna be, we will see how long I can type without my wrist dying...ok done! Just kidding, well not about the hurting, but anyways...update, right.
So let's see. I am still with Steve, we had our 7 month anniversary at the end of February, it was awesome. We also had a great first Christmas and a wonderful first Valentines Day (yeah, it's been that long) Christmas he spoiled me rotten ;) He gave me a beautiful diamond horeshoe necklace, a COACH purse (yep, a real one), an itunes gift card, 3 movies and a ton of other little things too :) Valentines Day I was spoiled once again, I got white gold claddagh hoop earrings, another itunes gift card (i heart them), chocolates with a little teddy bear, 6 long stemmed red roses and 2 of the sweetest valentines cards I have ever seen. One of them had a little character who said, "know what I love most about you?" and then through the whole card there were about 20 different things like, "your eyes, your smile, your personality...etc etc" and after each one he wrote a comment of his own. It was so incredibly sweet. He also told me he loved me for the first time on Valentines Day so it was really special because I know he meant it.
Ok moving on :) I am in my final semester at SNHU which means that I am actually finally going to graduate after 6 years, 5 majors and 4 colleges! My degree witll be in English, Language and Literature with a minor in Humanitites. I am doing really well in my last 5 clases, we just had our midterms and I am getting all A's and B's! The classes I am taking are European Conquest of the New World (holy hard as hell but SOOO interesting. Interesting piece of information, the teacher is called the wicked witch of the west at school and she actually introduced herself to us as that!), 19th Century British Fiction (fuckload of reading, 5 books this semester all stuff like Dickens, Austen and Bronte, sooo boring and sooo easy, lol), Modern Art (when I emailed the teacher one day to tell her I was going to be absent because I was sick, she told me I didn't need to be there anyways because I could have just as easily taught the class, however she would miss me for all my wonderful input :) lol), Gender & Text (all about how women (mostly) and men are represented in contemporary novels, actually pretty good, we just read a fucking awesome book called 'Middlesex' by the author who wrote 'The Virgin Suicides', we also read 'The Hours' and will be reading my favorite book of all time, 'Bastard out of Carolina') and my last class is Playwriting Workshop (total waste of time, all I do in that class is homework for my other classes or sleep. The teacher is so clueless and so boring, he also thinks the class gets out at 12 and not 12:15 so we get out early every class, haha). So those are my classes, not really challenging per se but just a lot of work in some. The 2 lit classes I have 11 books total to read which is a lot considering the texts are as long as 525 pages. The History course has a lot of work too and it's stressful because the teacher expects a lot from you, but it's very rewarding. That's about all that is going on with classes :)
Ooh, in some good news, there are only 69 more days until I GRADUATE FROM COLLEGE!!! YAYYYYY! Hehe, can you tell I'm excited...at the same time though, to be honest, I'm a bit terrified. There is a few reasons, one: I don't know where I'm going to be living. Steve is going to grad school and two of the places he is considering are out of state; one in Colorado and one in Connecticut. He has already told me he won't go unless I come with him and besides, I couldn't not go anyways. So I am still trying to figure out where I am gonna live which means I can't really look for a job until I know. Not to mention the fact that I have no idea what kind of job I want, there isn't anything that I could do that really appeals to me. There are plenty of jobs I would love, but I'm just not qualified so we will see.
In some other good news, less than two weeks from now (march 25-30) Steve and I are going to Disney World for spring break! I cannot wait! It has been 5 years since I have been and almost 10 since Steve has been. We have it all planned out. We are staying at a Disney Resort (All Star Movie Resort) and we are doing the 4 day park hopper pass so we can go to all 4 parks whenever we want (Magic Kingdom, MGM, Animal Kingdom and Epcot). Plus they do all the transportation and you get other cool perks. Steve has never seen the Animal Kingdom either so I am psyched to show him that because I loved it there. We also have a few different dinner reservations. While we are down there we will have our 8 month anniversary so we will celebrate that of course :) Now all I need is some spending money which brings me to my next topic: work.
The last shift I worked was this past Thursday, March 8th, before that the last shift I worked was Tuesday February 6th. Yes you read that right, I had not worked in a month. They just stopped scheduling me. I was sooo pissed. And of course I am not scheduled next week either, but I took someone elses shifts who didn't want them so that's good at least. And when I went in on Thursday for 3-7 I told them I wanted more hours and they asked me to stay until 11 that night so I did. I still need money though so feel free to donate ;)
I am trying to think of what else is going on in my life...I guess I am a pretty boring person. I did a little bit of skiing this year. I spent Christmas with Steve and his family and skiied Stratton a couple times, it was icy though so that sucked. I went sledding a few weeks ago with Steve and some family friends of his. This little girl "Charlie" (short for Charlotte)who is 2 was there, she was sooo cute and I got to babysit her so I was happy. Steve and I did have a rough patch right around Christmas but we have worked it all out and now things couldn't be better.
Oh yeah, hello...other awesome news! I am going to be an AUNTIE!!! My sister is pregnant with my first niece or nephew and due in September! I am so super excited, of course she may be moving to Germany so that will suck cos I won't be able to see him or her. Either way I get to see her in May when she comes for a visit and to see my graduation. I am psyched!
Ok, I honestly can't think of anything else to say...I miss everyone down in Nashua so much, especially my AC Moore crew :( We are only 30 minutes away, we need to hang out more! Ok, I guess I am gonna finish this up with a little note...I am selling some of my movies, if anyone wants them, they are yours, here is the deal (this is a template that's why it says stuff you already know):
Hey everyone,
For Spring Break I am going to Disney World and since I spent every penny I had (and some I didn't) on the trip itself I now have no spending money. In order to alleviate that situation I have decided to sell off a few movies from my massive movie collection. The deal is that they are all $10, they are all in excellent condition (if you know me and my obsession with movies you know that I take excellent care of them) and the sales are on a first come first serve basis. Who ever can give me the cash first gets it :) Sorry! If you have any questions about the movies on the list just message me. If this sale goes well I will be adding more movies to the list. THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR HELPING ME OUT!!! Here they are:
Alfie (2004)
The Bachelor
Basic Instinct
Beautiful
Boat Trip
Boys on the Side
Chicken Little (still in wrapping)
Crossroads
Dinner with Friends
A Few Good Men (still in wrapping)
The Five People You Meet in Heaven (still in wrapping)
Fly Away Home (still in wrapping)
The Last Castle
Me, Myself & Irene
Midsummers Night Dream
Music From Another Room
One Fine Day
Lemony Snickets: A Series of Unfortunate Events (sealed)
Wicker Park (still in wrapping)

Ok, love to all of you!!!! MUAH MUAH MUAH XOXOXOXOXOXO!!!

I know it's been forever and that the shortness of this update will not be adequate for all my fans out there but alas, it will have to do ;) So, I am still very busy with school. Enjoying the classes for the most part got my midterm grades, 3 "B"'s, an "A" and 1 "D"...ha, yeah thats an economics, big surprise! Still doing Drama Club. We are putting on The Wizard of Oz, I play Gloria who isn't in the movie but a portion of the song I sing is...it's the ho ho ho, ha ha ha and a couple of tra la las song that is sung when they get to oz. I also have about 20 lines or so and a lot of stage time cos im also a munchkin :) I also managed to convince Steve to replace a kid who dropped so now h is ion the LOLLIPOP GUILD!!! He is gonna be SO cute, lol. Working only a few hours at the wonderful Kohls...I think they hate me cos I request a ton of days off, but oh well. I am trying to enjoy my senior year as much as possible.
Did a few fun things recently. Went to King Richards Faire and Salem, Mass (for halloween) and have seen a bunch of movies. May be going to see a few concerts soon. Saw Journey in September which was cool.
In sad news, one of my mums kittens, KoKo, is dying,. they think he has feline leukemia and we may have to put him down next week. :(
Not much else going on. Heading to Vermont for the weekend with Steve and our friend Lia. We have to buy our ski passes this weekend so we figured we would take advantage of it and spend the weekend and watch movie :)
Steve and I are doing really well, we just hit our 3 month mark (officially, on the 27th) and the best news...HE HASN'T TALKED TO, TEXTED, EMAILED OR SEEN LIZ IN OVER 3 WEEKS!!!! ok, well I'm excited, lol. Anyways, that's all I have time for now, Steve will be back in a few and ten we have to finish packing the car. Hope you all are well, miss you guys!!!

So I am now in my thrid week of school. So far, I hate it, lol. It's not that the classes are all that bad, I just hate 4 out of 5 of my teachers and all but 1 of my courses are so boring I feel like I'm in 6th grade. Oh well, guess that's life. So this weekend Steve and I went to the Journey/Def Leppard concert in Saratoga Springs, NY. We did like 10 hours of driving in a 24 hour period, we were exhausted, but the concert was awesome so it was worth it. Plus at the tailgate party with his brother we got "pulled" over by 7 state trooper cars, lol. It was fucking hysterical. We were in a state park and there is obviously no drinking there so the 15 people we were with and the other 50 or so people that were there and drinking all had to spill out their booze. I was only drinking water so I was good :) Going to Vermont tonight with Steve and our friend Lindsey cos he has to get his license renewed tomorrow so we thought we would make a little trip of it and invite Lindsey. Much excited. In other news, Becky gave birth to the most adorable baby, little Jackson :) Congrats Becky! Let's see, not much else to report except that in the past 7 days I have only slept at home once...so basically my apartment is now just a storage unit for my shit. My parents would kill me if they knew how often I was at Steve's...but I can't help it. I love being here, not just for Steve, but I love his roomies too, and they love me :) so it's all gooooood. Ok, I have to go check on the brownies now...I bake for them :) hehe. Miss all of you!

I really wish I could sleep. Last night I took sleeping pills and they didn't do a damn thing...I was gonna try NyQuil tonight but what's the point? None of this shit works on me...on top of the fact that I'm exhausted and can't sleep I had a bad night and I miss Steve. This was a pointless update. Sorry for wasting your time.

Hello :) Not too much to report as usual. Im bored as hell. I am getting shit for hours at work, and go figure, the days I request off (like today for Becky's shower) they schedule me. I mean sweriously, i only work 1-2 shifts a week, they can't have one of the 5 or 6 days I have off be the one I requested?! Psssh. Whatever. I am so done with this job if they don't start giving me more hours in September. In other news, unfortunatly, Steve is back in New York with his mum...most likely until September 4th when school starts...it's the longest we have been apart, by the time we see eachother it will have been 13 days. Ick. Oh well, I guess everything happens for a reason. I am pretty sure his mother hates me now. Ironically the woman spent all her time and energy trying to get us together when we were friends and now that we are dating it's like she wants nothing more than to break us up. Ok...whatever. Finally got all my cd's imported to my ipod and now i am just going through and checking all the songs and making playlists...I have 10.2 days of music :) LOL. So I definetly have Monday through Saturday off this week, anyone wanna do something? Ah, let's see...um it's really sad that as little as I write in here, I still have no news to report. I lead that sad of an existence. Oh, here is some news: I am incredibly poor right now. As far as i can tell i am royally screwed. Oh yeah, and on top of that...my wrist has been flaring up hardcore so now everything hurts, it is seriously taking forever to type this fucking thing. Hope everything is awesome with all my lovelies out there. Becky I am so sorry I couldn't make your shower, blame Kohls. I hope you get everything you want and I will have to give you Jacksons things later :) Love and miss you all...
