HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO EVERYONE! I am not dead, and I will give you a sort of list of what I've been up to in my absence:

-I'm 20 now! My birthday was a couple of weeks ago, and I spent the day at an amusement park with Alex, my sister, and her boyfriend. It was tons of fun. Also, there were fireworks in the sky when we were leaving the park, and ( Read more... )

For those of you who could see my last entry (it was friends-only), the situation is improving. Still not totally back to normal, but it's getting there. Woo! I've been getting advice from friends of mine, so hopefully, I'll be able to find a less painful solution/alternative. Yay!

Summer classes have begun. I'm taking a ceramics class and a human ( Read more... )

I'm really frustrated with myself and my life right now.

First of all, I'm 99% sure I'm going to fail at least two classes this semester. Yep, two out of four. The other two won't be very good, either. How did this happen? I took four classes with a heavy workload at once. Also, two of these classes are online, and online classes take MUCH more ( Read more... )

I've been having some really annoying spring allergies. Normally my allergies last for a couple of days and go away, but that's not the case this year. I noticed them Wednesday of last week, and they're still around even though I've been taking Claritin for three days. Ugh. I just want my voice, nose, and respiratory tract back!

I may have found a ( Read more... )

I've been really frustrated with my mom lately. I just really can't wait to be out on my own. Last week, she microwaved our blender, and I'm pretty much the only one in the house who used it. I had just bought a ton of stuff to make smoothies, and then she showed me how she had caused the ridiculous cracks up the side of the pitcher. (Apparently ( Read more... )

So finally after 2-3 years of whining and pining about going to VCU, it finally happened today. Or, at least, I finally did the college visit thing that I've been unable to do for various reasons.

All I can say is:
Oh.
My God.

I get it now. I get the hype around the school. I know now what people are talking about when they find a school they ( Read more... )

I had the most bizarre dream two nights ago. I was at the Subway sandwich shop by my high school with Alex, and in the dream, it was like 5 times its real life size and had a pool. We were there to watch a water ballet based on Black Beauty, but Alex had no interest in me and kept hanging out with his ROTC friends from high school. I got upset with ( Read more... )

The good news: I can keep real food down without any barfing or diarrhea! Yayyy!

The bad news: One of Alex's coworkers was a no-call no-show this morning, and upon further investigation, they found out he committed suicide.

...

Yeah.

That's all that I know. I don't know how old he was and I don't know how or when it happened. He was younger, ( Read more... )

So Jimmy is back in town briefly because one of our other managers is opening a new restaurant. Yeah, the same Jimmy that I quit over because he wouldn't stop being a royal douche to me.

I called the restaurant to let them know that I'm still really sick and not coming in tonight. Jimmy called me back pissed the fuck off because I didn't call ( Read more... )
