i sometimes wonder why i don't really want to study abroad at all. it seems like most people at least have the desire to...but i just don't. i think next summer i might go to italy for a few weeks as part of the italian major i'm adding, but i don't know--why do people want to get away so much? it's great, but i wish i wanted to also so i wasn't ( Read more... )

i wish i knew what i'm going to do with my future. because now i'm like, ok i'm going to double major in english and italian...but what am i going to go to grad school for? i know i want to do something with english, and italian is just a hobby...but what if i'm not a teacher? i feel like there's something else out there except i don't know about ( Read more... )

hmm so i had an interesting weekend so far. friday after work i went to dinner with morgan and jess, then i watched pride and prejudice with jess...it was sooo long but very well done. i just finished the book, and seeing it clarified a lot. i'm a dork. today, or well yesterday now, i did some hw, ate lunch with jess, went out to dinner with ( Read more... )

things aren't going so well lately, but i'm totally fine. nothing to worry about, but i'm just not going to be contacting anyone too much for a while most likely. i hope all of you are doing great. i'm praying for everyone, even those who hate me and everything i might have to say. i'm just going to be doing schoolwork and trying to stay out of my ( Read more... )

this week was hectic but not too bad. i've had a lot of work and a lot of dissapointments, but i'm becoming stronger because of all that. my school job is fun...i don't really do anything. yay one of the ladies at work has a half sheltie/half beagle doggy named riley and i can walk him whenever i want, anddd she lives like on college ave ( Read more... )

so i'll be home for a week for mary wash's 'spring' break in the middle of winter. i might work, and that'll be good because money is scarce. i have ten thousand books i want to read, so perhaps i'll finish pride and prejudice...since i've been reading it for like a year...and then i can start another. i really want to see a few movies too. maybe i ( Read more... )

running is good if you can make yourself do it...aka i've been making myself do it, and it's good. it makes you feel powerful even when you don't have any power whatsoever. so anyway, nothing is going on at all. i started my new job as...well...basically an envelope stuffer for the alumni center. i work ten hours a week. it is money, regardless. i' ( Read more... )

something amazing happened yesterday. my older sister vitina called me and had a conversation with me. like, we actually spoke...without killing each other. it made me feel so good to know that she knew i existed. see, i always thought of her as this great person who just wasn't so great around her siblings or something. then again, she used ( Read more... )

i wish i was published and something i wrote touched someone or helped someone get up in the morning or deal with a day that seems hopeless. in creative writing i'll read other people's work, and i begin to see that i'm no different than every single aspiring writer. that sucks a lot. if i had something distinctive about me there would be hope. it' ( Read more... )

i'm so busy right now, and i guess i'm better off that way. lots of work and taking horseback riding is time consuming. now i'm doing jess across the hall's kickboxing class three days a week, also. then there's my big sister volunteer program on wednesday, csa supper seminar on thursday, film club tuesday nights, and i just joined this education ( Read more... )
