I still can't believe Donna died. It seems so surreal. Someone who was so much younger than me, someone with whom I have a mild connection, died such a horrible death and it seems as though she hadn't even begun to live. What is it they say about God taking his children at their time? When he wants them they'll go? Something to that effect? I ( Read more... )

I'm over arguing. I'm not sure if I could express that in any better form. Don't get me wrong, I have that "Italian temper" but I'm not one to sit and debate over something completely illegitmate.
I have come to realize that I don't mesh well with people who are contsantly having a negative outlook on literally everything. I don't like the idea ( Read more... )

There's so many changes that are taking place in my life right now and I'm not sure how to handle some of them. I know there are some definite things that I need to take care off in order to get my life straightened out but it's hard because I'm tired and frustrated all the time. I'm also fighting off these ridiculous headaches. It's either I need ( Read more... )

 As my vacation comes to a sad close (since I'm flying back tomorrow), I can't help but feel all emotional and stuff. It's frustrating because I know that once I get home and back into the swing of things, I'll be fine. When I'm here, however, I get all teary eyed and homesick and I remember how nice it is living at home. Italian parents are the ( Read more... )

Gosh, I love that Alicia Keys song. I love that bad times, good feelings music. It makes me remember that although things may be sucky, everything's gonna be alright. I have health. I have friends. I have family. I have love. And everything will be alright.

Today my parents and I went shopping downtown. Mom and I scored a bunch of deals at Aero, ( Read more... )

Today I ate lunch with my cousins in Knox. It was this little place called Christos. It was like, Greek food or something? I met my cousin's fiance, Tina, for the first time. Her ring is insanely gorgeous. She's rather soft spoken, as most people are with Dave, but she presents herself as a very good listener. I'll never understand their likeness ( Read more... )

Christmas has been amazing so far. My parents and I opened presents last night (an Italian/Visceglie family tradition) and I got so much more than I deserved. We agreed, long ago, that we wouldn't do Christmas this year except for family pictures (from me to my parents) and maybe a Christmas card or two. Leave to my mom to buy and wrap tons of ( Read more... )

So my trip to Chicago started out on a bad note. lol. My flight, which was supposed to leave at 7:40 in the morning, leaving me waiting there are approximately two hours ahead of time, was delayed almost three hours. It was a good thing that my parents didn't have anything planned for me on Saturday. lol. Anyways, on the flight, which is seated in ( Read more... )

It's officially five days until I head to the best place on earth: Chicago. I can't wait. Mommy promised me a mega shopping trip her treat. Hooray. :) Plus, I get to see snow which I haven't seen in probably tenish years.

I got my haircut this weekend. My mom will be thrilled. lol. No more stringy curls. They're far more bouncy and life like now and ( Read more... )

I just got back from shopping with Kierstin. I bought some winter clothes for my Chicago trip and some Christmas presents for Anthony. More Christmas shopping to be continued on Saturday at CP. Can't wait. It's been awhile since I've been there. I think, actually, the last time I was there was when I actually worked there which was quite awhile ago ( Read more... )
