Barn Dance is this Saturday. I'm not that excited. I'd rather be curled up on the couch watching the White Sox game and eating Chinese food, but that would make me feel anti-social and give me images of my future. So I'm going to go and I get to dress up as a cow girl and it will be fun. Dom wants me to go on a blind date with this guy from ( Read more... )

The White Sox beat the Red Sox 14-2 today!!!!!!!! It was amazing!!!! Scott Posednik hit his first homerun of the year! So my black clothing celebrated the Sox, and wasn't worn in mourning of their supposed slaughtering!!!! So I basically went on and on about the White Sox from the time the game ended until.....now. And Marty said that I'm ( Read more... )

I LOVE Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays because I have my favorite professor who is absolutely AMAZING!!!!! My roommates thin that I'm obsessed with him because I talk about him all the time but it's because he is so funny and gets soooooo excited about all of the novels, short stories, and poems that we discuss (his eyes sparkle) AND he's sooooo ( Read more... )

I'm in a much, much better mood today. Maybe the best mood since I've been here which is pretty ironic since I have a one and one meeting with Sam today and he wants me to talk about everything that I've been upset about. "You know Jackie, it's ok to cry." Mmmmmm, I have my favorite class, well more like my favorite professor, today. And I ( Read more... )

I'm a slacker. It's true. I have taken on way too much this year and I feel like I'm doing everything half as good as it could be done because of it. I also have something to do or somewhere to go. But then there are those moments like right now where I actually have free time (ok so I really have a million things that I should be doing right ( Read more... )

I'm calmer today and have been able to clearly look at the situation. It wasn't like it's a big suprise, I knew that I was always going to have a lot of loans and money was going to be tight, and I still chose to go out of state. Anyway, I'll survive this year. I will find a job. I think I'm going to look at the village and then maybe Target or ( Read more... )

So because I'm a booknerd I already finished the sixth Harry Potter book and I cried. Bawled. Books and movies NEVER make me cry. Sometimes I feel like I should cry when something is really sad so my eyes get misty but this time tears were streaming and I couldn't stop. Now I want the seventh one. Today I saw Charlie and the Chocolate Factory ( Read more... )

5 more weeks left of Illinois, which has gotten better, now I don't want to leave....again. I just am paranoid and get scared of going back because I'm afraid that everyone has forgetten me and I'll be all alone and hate it. And I'm stressing about money and actually having to pay for things (like food so I can eat and not starve to death) and the ( Read more... )

I'm the counselor of the week, yeah! I get an hour paid break next week (instead of my usual half hour)and I got a hat....it's made out of blue construction paper but I love it and my kids spent the day fighting over it. So one of my camper's parents gave her counselor eight White Sox tickets last year, just as a thank you, and I'm hoping (even ( Read more... )
