Well its been a while.....
Lets see....Chris and I celebrated our one year anniversary this past friday :) We went to Olive Garden (there isn't much of a selection of restaurants out here) it was really good and we had a nice time (except for waiting forever). We came back and watched A Walk to Remember cause I have wanted to watch it for a long time but haven't had time. And we brought dessert back from Olive Garden so we ate that! He had a dozen red roses delivered for me and he got me diamond earrings, they are very pretty! Ofcourse I already broke the diamond earrings....oooopps...I didn't know they made twist on backs....I broke it cause I pulled off the back and didn't twist it. Hopefully they will fix it for me.
Me, Lisa, and Ashley have all decided to pledge Alpha Sigma which is the sorority that Beth is in. We got our bids last night at a ceremony, it was really cute! I'm excited and kinda nervous at the same time, but I'm glad I'm doing it and I'm glad my roomates are doing it with me. It's a big decision and we all thought it through really well. I'm just worried about my grades during pledging and money for dues but I think I'll be ok.
Band is almost over....thank god! I'll miss hanging out with the girls...but other then that I won't miss it. Way too much drama this year for me....but I did have fun and I think I got really close to a lot of the girls and made good friends. Like I actually hang out with them a lot outside of guard and stuff and I've gotten to know a lot more people in band, so I've had more fun in that aspect. We only have one more football game and two performances on the same night....Scranton and Hershey. Then we have a guard dinner at Red Lobster and the Band Banquet. And only a handful of practices left.
School is keeping me busy as usual but its pretty tolerable. My Fundamentals of Math II class isn't going very well but other then that they are all going great.

So busy and I really don't feel like being busy.....I don't feel like I should be going back to school but I do want to go back...and I'm sick of working at this daycare...I need a break from these children....they now have Scarlet Fever. For those of you who don't know....scarlet fever is caused by the same bacteria as strep throat and you get a rash, sore throat, high fever, sometimes nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and headaches. Yeah....so its been great....Two kids have been diagnosed with it...and we think one more definitely has it but his parents haven't called in and told us he has it. We had to post notes on the doors and stuff so its been great. So I'm praying I won't get it...but I feel like I have some symptoms...but it could all be in my head cause I tend to get that way occasionally.
So I've been having migraine/headaches again...so now I don't know what the deal is with that....like if I'm getting sick or what...cause the Scarlet fever takes a few days to develop, so I really have no idea. Too many possibilities.
So my schedule for the rest of my time at home....
Thursday: after work pick up my car in Lumberton on Rt. 38, then hopefully go get a pedicure if I have enough time or I'm supposed to go see my doctor if my headaches don't go away. So I have no idea what I'm going to do. Most likely go get the pedicure cause my mom will probably yell at me for going to the doctor cause she'll just put me on more medicine and my mom doesn't want me on more medicine. My mom wants me to suffer with headaches the rest of my life, well I know she doesn't but she just constantly complains about me taking all this medication. And she goes to tell me everytime that I have a migraine that its just a sinus headache, its not a fucking sinus headache! Or maybe I do have a sinus infection...I'm so FRUSTRATED with this migraine crap.
Friday: Date in philly with Chris :)
Saturday: No plans
Sunday: Church/Pack/Dinner with Friends :)
Monday: Pack and head up to SHIP
I want my headaches to go away :(

So I took the reading section of the praxis again yesterday morning at Stockton. Chris spent the night and then he drove me down so I didn't have to go by myself and we wanted to go to the beach afterwards. Such a great boyfriend! So we get to Stockton like 5 min early, we thought we got lost but we actually found it ok and only got in one little fight about directions so not bad at all. We walked in and there must have been like 100 people just standing there and report time said 7:30...yeah well nobody was there to check us in or anything. So long story short we didn't get the test started til 8:30ish which sucked. I felt bad cause Chris had to wait, but he drove around and stuff. So hopefully I passed this time. From the outside of buildings, Stockton seemed really really nice.Then we headed down to Atlantic City cause it was like 20 minutes away, Chris had free parking at the Showboat so we parked in the parking garage, walked through the casino and sat on the beach. The beach was pretty crappy, like run down and not taken care of and the people there were pretty interesting....well trashy and not nice. But atleast I got to sit on the beach one last time. And I got pooped for the THIRD time this summer by a stupid fucking seagull!!! Cause stupid dumbass people kept feeding them!!! It was so gross...luckily the lady next to us heard me scream and I was in tears, she brought me over wipes that she had with her. I was so pissed off. But the weather was really really nice and since we were by Showboat, which has the House of Blues, they were playing music outside so we could hear the music on the beach which was awesome. Chris and I had lots of fun making fun of people. I don't think I'll ever go back to that beach. So we were on the beach for like 4 hours and then drove to Chris's, got showered and went to the IKEA in Philly. I got shelf liner to line the shelves in the townhouse at achool and I got a candle plate for the candle beth gave me. Chris got a lamp and trash can. Then we went to dinner at Red Robin and to see Wedding Crashers, which was really really funny. Oh and we also walked around the mall while we waited for the movie to start. I got 3 shirts at american eagle for $18. Then we went back to his house, talked to his parents for a few minutes, then picked up his brother and then they drove me home and I got home at like 1:15Am. So it was a really long day but it was lots of fun! I had a great day with Chris!
So I have a ton of stuff to do this week since its my last week, hopefully I'll get it all done. I have some stuff planned out....
Monday: Visit my grandpop in the hospital??
Tuesday: Dentist
Wednesday:Drop my car off to get stuff fixed once again
Thursday: Pedicure
Friday: Cuba Libre at 8:30 with Chris :)
Saturday:??
Sunday: Pack :(
and I can always add more stuff in cause all of those things listed don't take long
Obviously I have to work Mon-Fri. Last week of work :)!!! I have this list in my purse I keep crossing things off but then I keep adding things....its never ending.
And now my migraines/headaches are coming back like every night....I was doing so well for like 4 months and ofcourse right when I have to go back to school I get all messed up again....I don't know what the deal is...or how to get rid of it....its so annoying
alright well I'm off to bed....goodnight!

Well I haven't updated for a while so I figured I would update.....not that I really have that much to write about.
My days consist of getting up at 7:30 leaving by 7:55, working 8:30-5:30 with 18 children 18-24 months old, then coming home, eating dinner, and possibly going out for a couple of hours, but I'm usually in bed by 11 and on the phone with chris til midnight and the day starts over again. Work is going pretty well. The toddlers are bad but what do you expect when you put a very small room to full capacity, they barely have room to breath...but it will only be like that for another two weeks and hopefully it should get better. Everybody loves me there, well thats what everyone tells. The principal told me the other day that the kids' parents in the room love me and they wish I didn't have to go back to school in the fall. So thats nice to hear that everybody likes me and that I'm in one classroom for the most part and not being moved around constantly, only sometimes in the afternoon, but only like once a week or so. The drive to and from still sucks, but oh well.
I spent saturday and most of sunday in philly with Chris. We went to his cousin's wedding. It was nice, it was in a catholic church so I didn't really know what to do during certain parts so I felt a little awkward. I met most of his dad's side of the family. The reception was nice to....I don't really feel like typing the details....so if you really want to know, you can ask. I spent last weekend in philly too because his sister had a graduation party and that was a fun party except chris was a little to drunk so I didn't have as much fun, but thats ok, it was still a nice time. Chris came home with me yesterday and we had dinner here with my grandparents and they liked him so that was nice to hear, eventhough he has to work on his eye contact. I feel so bad, I rip him apart about everything...I'm just being honest...and if I don't tell him then who will? oh well...It's really nice spending so much time with chris on the weekends, we've had a great time! We went to his friend's graduation party after the wedding reception but they were already drunk when we got there so we didn't stay long, but we played a game just if you got the lowest card you had to take a shot of vodka with a tiny bit of orange juice in it, and this guy sitting there was like oh if your guy is here and you can't handle your shots then you have to give it to your guy...(he was saying this to the girls playing the game) and I looked at him and I was like well what if we can handle our own liquor, I don't need to give my shots to my guy, thanks, give me my shot, he was pissing me off! Even chris stuck up for me and told him I don't need to take her shots for her, she can handle her alcohol without a problem, it was funny.
Everyone should go see Cinderella Man, cause I saw it on Friday with Katie, Carolyn, and Kelly. It was really good!! I highly suggest it!
Tonight I went to Geoff's baseball game with Carolyn and then we just went to Rita's and got some ice cream and came home.
Chris and I have a date to go see the new batman movie cause I think it comes out on wednesday so I'm excited! and then maybe Friday Kelly and I are gonna go see the Traveling Pants movie (whatever the real name is)
I got yelled at for my cell phone bill today being to high....I love how I get yelled at eventhough I pay for it! haha...well I guess someone needs to yell at me for it...cause it is way too high....its cause Chris needs to switch to Verizon! I blame him. So yeah my mom isn't very happy with me cause she told me I'm spending too much money.....so I need to work on that...but I really don't think I am. The only thing I spend money on is my lunch, whatever I do at night which usually isn't much, and gas. I spent money this week cause I needed a dress, etc. for the wedding so thats done. The only presents that I'll need to buy the rest of the summer are Father's day and Chris's bday present I think, so that will be good.
On Vacation down the shore next week :) Everyone is more then welcome to come down and visit!

Well I started my new job today. I'm working at the Chesterbrook Academy in Moorestown. It's pretty much the same as the other Chesterbrook, just different people and a little bit bigger, they have an extra classroom or two. I was in the younger toddler classrooms all day. I'm working 8:30-5:30 Mon-Fri. The day went by pretty quickly. The people that I was working with today are pretty nice, most of them are fairly young, maybe a little older then me. So the pay isn't that great and the ride is kinda far but its a full time job so I think it will work out fine. They were also telling me about all these people that were quitting from the other Chesterbrook where I worked that weren't taking any of the college kids back and two work at the one in Moorestown half the day and then work at the one in Marlton the other half of the day and they hate working at Marlton. So I think things worked out for the better.
So being home kinda sucks cause its pretty boring, but I say that everytime I come home cause up at school there is usually always someone to be around and to entertain me. I've been watching lots of tv cause there's really nothing to do and nobody to hang out with, everybody seems busy with their own things, so I think I'll be watching tv a lot this summer. So that kinda sucks a lot. So I'm missing school and everybody a lot. I miss being around Chris eventhough majority of the time we spent together especially during the weekdays is when we were sleeping but its just a nice feeling to have someone sleep next to you and cuddle with all night. Being 45 min. away doesn't sound like far away but it kinda is cause we both work til like 5:30 every night and have to be up in the morning at like 7:15 AM so it doesn't leave that much time to see each other cause we're tired after working and want to get to bed early enough. So hopefully we'll find someway to see each other more during the week. So things are going great with Chris, I couldn't be happier, other then that I miss seeing him everyday. When I went to visit him in Philly we went to a carnival that some church had and we played a game where you shoot the water gun and I won! I got a Big Bird stuffed animal and left it for Chris to sleep with and then we went and got milkshakes. It was fun, except for the driving. He was going to meet me at this wawa right over the bridge cause I don't know where his house is. So he wasn't at the wawa when I got there and there were scary people there so I called beth to talk to her cause I really scared. Then he drove me back to the bridge and I really really really didn't like that drive, thank god he was with me, cause I would have been really scared if he didn't cause it was late and dark and creepy. His neighborhood where he lives is nice but not the drive.
I have to babysit my two cousins Ryan and Victoria on Friday night. I have to go right from work so that will be a long day. On saturday I'll probably have to help my mom paint the porch again (I still have paint in my hair from saturday) and then hopefully hang out with Chris cause its our 7 month anniversary :)
My fish Ruby died last week, I was very upset. We buried her in the front yard under the tree. I want to go get another one soon.
I really want to go back to the gym so hopefully I'll get motivated to do that but it just sucks that its so far away from work, cause I wouldn't get there til like 6:30, cause it took me 40 min to get home from work today, so that really sucks.
I got my grades the other day. I got all A's!!! I made DEAN'S LIST!!! I can't even tell you the last time I did that! lol. So I made my family very happy :) I also passed my astronomy class I was taking pass/fail that I maybe went to class 12 times all semester and thats including the 4 exams we took and the time we handed in our group paper, lol. So that was very nice to see.
So I guess thats all that is new in my life, just working and hanging out.

Well I figured I would update since I haven't in a while since I'm a big loser and have no friends right now....everyone is busy....I took the praxis this morning. So I have been awake for way too long. I got to take them with Cramer, so that was fun. I did the practice ones online and I didn't do so well on the reading ones but did fine on the math and writing. So I take the reading and it was easy and the math and writing ones were kinda hard....so it was completely opposite of what I was thinking it was gonna be. So I'm a little scared to see the results cause I have major problems with standardized tests.
I wish I could go somewhere for spring break....cause coming home really isn't any fun.....it actually kinda sucks....stupid same old crap....nothing ever changes and its annoying....not that Shippensburg is all that exciting either. But at school I'm with friends all the time so its a little more fun then sitting in the house with my mom who isn't very much fun. Well hopefully spring break will maybe get a little more exciting....but most likely not....ok well I don't feel like typing anymore....I guess I'll go hang out in my room or something.

So I haven't updated in a while and figured I would while I wait for my laundry. Nothing too much has changed since I updated last....lets see...I have had lots of classes canceled which is awesome, I take lots of naps, watch tv, and do homework, and other random stuff with my silly roomates. Like thursday when I was supposed to be studying for my exam Ash, Lisa, and I played chubby bunnies and tape recorded it, and then had a dance/karoke party with the video camera....funniest thing ever! I beat chris at chubby bunnies, I won with 5 marshmellows! :) So we did all that til like 1am...so random but fun! Friday I had work...and let me tell you it was so nice not going to work drunk on friday....cause usually I do but since I didn't drink on thursday...it was such a difference. I also had a midterm on in my reading in the elementary school class....it wasn't too bad, all multiple choice. Then my roomates and I went to the elementary school for our hour there every friday. Then we finally went to the Hagerstown mall and went shopping for Valentine's day. I just had to get chris cologne because I already bought him a shirt from Ross earlier in the week. Then Lisa, Ash and I went out with Chris to a party and it was fun....kinda awkward but not too bad. It was nice to actually leave our house. Then on Saturday I got my Valentine's surprise! Chris wrote I <3 U on my bed with rose petals, and got me a big heart balloon, teddy bear, candy, 1/2 dozen roses, he put contstruction paper hearts on walls with pictures of us, a card, he wrote me a song, and he made me chocolate covered strawberries! Ashley and I went to go tanning to get me out of the house but ofcourse no tanning place in Shippensburg is open past one on a saturday...how dumb! But luckily we were gone long enough! So I came back and my room was decorated and Chris was hiding in the closet, it scared the shit out of me! Then Ashley and Lisa gave beth and I V-day presents....they were lollipops shaped like a penis and they hid them around our room....it was funny! Chris took me out to a very very very nice restaurant, everything was so good! really expensive too, I felt bad. I had the best tiramisu omg....it was sooooo good! actually everything was delicious. Then we came back here and I made him watch moulin rouge cause he's never seen it! So it was a really really nice night. I'm making him dinner tomorrow night, but I'm not sure what to make.....thinking stir fry though. On Tuesday I'm going to Harrisburg and going to be in a 5th grade classroom....so that will be interesting. That day I'm just observing, but on the 23rd I have to teach a lesson.....little nervous....I'm not used to 5th graders. Well I think thats all...its time to get my laundry, shower, fold the laundry, dinner, and do homework. Fun Fun Fun....and I just got done cleaning and such.....and its already 4:15...the day goes by way too fast!

Well I haven't updated in a super long time and I don't quite feel like doing my laundry yet, so I figured I would update. Lets see....
Work: I work 8:30-10:45 MWF and 11:30-12:30 Tues/Thurs. It's not too bad but some of the stuff I have to do is kinda random. They told me I'm the closest thing they have to an administrative assistant so that pretty much covers what I do there.
Classes:
Child Development: The professor is really nice and the class doesn't seem like it will be that hard. Just a lot of outside work but thats what I get for being an elementary ed. major. There isn't any final or midterms for the class. We have to evaluate and reflect on movies we watch and also 9 hours of observations for children from birth-11 years old. And then we write papers on the observations and such. It shouldn't be too bad considering I work at the daycare. I also have to do a bunch of different kinds of interviews for that class too.
Reading in the Elementary School: This class is so overwhelming but I really like the professor. She has great ideas and runs the class really well. She has a lot of experience and knows what she's talking about. There is just so many projects for the class that it is a little overwhelming and in class she always has like 4 things going on at once. But she told us the reason for that is because in a classroom there is always more then one thing going on and its for us to get used to. We have a lot of books for the class, but we also had to buy this reading kit that came with letter magnets, dry erase board, and other cute stuff. I can't even name all the stuff we need to do for this class, its ridiculous. I know I have to be observing/in a classroom for my 6 hour practicum. And we have this dialogue journal every two weeks, book advertisements, read aloud to kids at the school. Just soooooo much that I feel very overwhelmed but comfortable to some sort.
Fundamentals of Math (Fundies): It's basically like Math for elementary school teachers. The book was freakin $106! But its because the whole class is kinda online, like there is a program you have to join and stuff and it has problems and quizes on it. But ofcourse it won't work on my computer. Did I mention how much I hate technology which is a bad thing cause all my education books and professors tell you constantly that you need to have technology in your classroom....great....cause technology HATES me! I don't really know anybody in that class very well....well ones that I actually want to talk to...a girl that I don't like for certain reasons is in there, so that makes it a little awkward. But other then that its alright. The professor seems really nice though.
Astronomy:uughhhh I hate gen eds. They suck ass! The class is a total joke, he doesn't take attendance and its soooo boring. It's in the planeterium which is cool but we don't use it. He just puts his power point on the screen so you have to look up then look down to write then look up again and down...I get a headache. But he puts all the powerpoint and chapter reviews on his website, so there is really no point to write anything down anymore or even go, but I'll probably still go cause I can't just not go to a class. But its my last gen. ed that I need! :) And my friend from guard Anita is in it so its fun.
Elements of Instruction: My professor is really really nice, but the class is sooooo boring and she seems a little floaty. We have a bunch of days where we go on trips to schools. We go to Harrisburg for an Urban setting experience, I think twice. And we also get placed in a local school with a partner I think to teach a lesson that we put together, so that should be interesting. Luckily there aren't any observation hours for this class, cause that would suck. The text book for this class sucks, its like based on a high school level I think and I really just don't like it.
America Reads: I'm also still doing this program now with all of my roomates, beth didn't do it last semester. So we do it on Fridays 2-3pm. It gets my name and face put into the school which could be a good thing for the next couple of years. I go into the 4th grade room for a half hour and then the special ed. room for a half hour.
Chris: Chris is great! We spent a lot of time together last week and last weekend. It was really really nice! I haven't seen him much this week though which sucks. He is going to Washington D.C. tonight probably til Friday cause his uncle got tickets to all this inaugeral stuff for the president. I wish he wasn't going though so I could see him, but oh well.
Partying: Still have time to go out ofcourse! Thursday we went over my old roomate's Michelle's apartment and drank there and then went two frat houses, it was alright, nothing to exciting but I was drunk so everything stupid was really funny, like Lisa's foot getting caught on the seat in the back of the car, it was funny. Then on Friday we went to our 4 friends' apartment and had fun as usual over there then we came back here and started being retarded. Well Ashley got a video camera for christmas....not a good idea. Chris's roomate Paul, who is a really funny kid came over and started taping us. He was drunk and so were we. Lisa was hitting everybody with a empty soda bottle so I went and got the pasta strainer and we were fighting in the kitchen til I put the strainer on Megan's head who was passed out on our sofa bed. So then I grabbed the tupperware that was on the table and Lisa and I kept fighting. Then Paul still has the video camera and beth is rambling on about her and her boyfriend..things you don't really need to know, and he has the camera on beth's boyfriend's crotch for like 5 min. It's the funniest tape. And then paul was standing next to me when I was on the floor and I pantsed him, omg it was hilarious! And we did some other stupid stuff, but it was really really funny watching the tape! On saturday night we decided to get lots of yummy juice and mix them and put alcohol in them, it was really yummy. We were at chris's house most of the night, it was fun. And then on Sunday night we all just watched movies here, it was a very fun weekend!
I had to go to the health center cause I still have a cold since the end of winter break and I hate going there, but they gave me amoxicillin and some hardcore decongestant pills.....they are working but I think the side effects are gonna get bad, cause last night I felt soooo dizzy and light headed, I was afraid to stand up and my stomach kinda hurts now, so we'll see what happens with them.
I wish we would get more snow so we would have off tomorrow and chris wouldn't go to DC but thats not gonna happen. We got maybe a little over an inch this morning but its still super slippery. Well I think I better go start my laundry cause I have to pick chris up from class at 4:45...hopefully I won't forget...that would be bad. uuughhh I hate doing laundry...but I've run out of jeans I like to wear and both laundry baskets are full! thats a big problem!
American Idol is on again tonight! :)
Hope everyone is doing as well as I am! and hope everyone's semester is going well....well atleast for now til things get super stressful like they always do! :)
Bye!!

| Mood: |  disappointed. |

So this weekend was kinda crappy. I got in a car accident driving to one of the malls in Harrisburg with my roomates. I got side swiped on the drivers side. I wanted to get off the highway but to get off you have to go in the same lane and traffic getting on the highway and there was just a continuous line of cars, so I braked maybe a little too suddenly and the car behind me didn't see me and side swiped me. Its not too bad like there isn't any body damage just some paint issues. But I'm still upset about it. Its like the only real thing I own and I ruin it, even though everyone keeps telling me its not my fault cause she should have had enough time to stop behind me and should have been watching. But I still think what I did was wrong and should not have slowed down. It could have caused so many more accidents if her car went into another lane or something, I am just so thankful that it was so minor, but I'm still soooooo mad at myself for being so dumb. I'm just so upset about it, I can't get over it. My mom didn't care, she was like well its your car. I don't know if she told my dad or not. I think I'll just have my dad get it fixed for me for my christmas present. What a great christmas present....all because i'm retarded. And then we finally get to the mall and went shopping which was fun. I got Chris a jacket for christmas cause he doesn't have one and it bothers me. So I got him that at Aeropostale on sale for $35 and I bought a shirt there too. I still have to get him something else, I was thinking an Eagles blanket cause he loves football and the eagles but I haven't been able to find one, so if anyone knows where I can find one around 15-20 dollars, let me know! Beth had to get her boyfriend Chris a christmas present too, so she got that. And Ashley and Lisa got some fun stuff too. I got a pink cell phone cover for $20 and I got home and I thought I lost a piece to it that the guy put on but I found it in my car, so I decided to super glue it, so its like a piece that goes on the front ontop of the screen, well somehow the glue stuck to my fingerprints that were on the cover so now the screen is white from the glue, so thats fucked up. I can still see the stuff, but it looks like crap.
Its finally the end of the semester. I finished my last presentation, it was a 25 min group one for american school, that class is so much uneeded work it drives me insane. I still have like 4 things due for that class. which I should be working on now instead of updating cause chris is gonna get mad I won't hang out with him cause I haven't started my work yet, oh well. I have a final in every class which sucks but hopefully they won't be too hard. Actually the only one I'm worried about is Sociology cause I need to pass to pass the class which sucks ass, I hate professors that only give one midterm and a final and thats it.
At home I'll be working at Chesterbrook full time for the 3 weeks I'm home.....no break for me ofcourse, so what else is new! I also want to go to the gym like everyday so hopefully I can stick to that goal. Hopefully I can just go everyday after work...work 9-6 then gym....how fun! And I have to fit in ofcourse hanging out with everyone and finding time to see Chris, which I really don't know how thats gonna work but we'll see. And I think everyone is coming back up here for New Years and we're gonna have a big party at our house, Chris's house, or Beth's boyfriends, or all three.....hehe....so if anyone wants to come everyone is invited! It will be fun :) cause we know how to party at SHIP! And I know everyone wants to see my ghetto house, we have like the most ghetto house, its awesome, we make fun of ourselves all the time. I personally am enjoying our christmas tree....which is an outline of tree made with lights taped to the kitchen wall...with a tinfoil star and ornaments made out of tinfoil...its hilarious! oh the fun we have, but we don't have a ghetto beer pong table anymore, cause lisa brought the pieces that make it bigger back with her. Yeah the ghetto list goes on and on......
So I think I have wasted enough time rambling and am now gonna start my work

So once again I'm sitting in work with nothing to do, but thats ok....in about an hour I already made snack, typed up a chart thing, and did filing. So thats enough for now. They are using the office for a meeting so I was kicked out to the front desk. This weeekend was fun. Friday we went to a dance party and saturday I was at West Chester and Red Lion High School. West Chester was sooooo much fun! Everybody got really into the game and SHIP won in overtime! It was awesome, everybody was hugging and jumping up and down and screaming and rushing the field! it was awesome. Then we went to the Park City Mall and I got to have Saladworks! I was sooo excited. Then we went to Red Lion for an exhibition which was dumb as usual. I performed thru two songs with a leaf on my butt. Cause we dance on the ground in the beginning and I guess it got stuck to my scarf. And my Little finally told me at the beginning of the third song. Everybody after was like yeah we saw it but no one was close enough to tell you...I was like great thanks guys. Oh and during the west chester performance we do this aroudn the back thingy and my flag got caught in my scarf....that was bad. Then I got lots of drunk calls from my roomate and boyfriend. So I was real bitter about that...I was like I want to be drunk too...but it was like 1Am and I was like nope just gonna go to bed. I slept in the same bed with chris 5 days in a row....really not a good idea...cause I don't sleep as well and go to bed later. So now I have a cold...well its a sore throat but I think it will turn into a cold. And I have realized that I'm kind of behind in my work or maybe its just that everything is happening around the same time. Atleast today I don't have band....I need to study for my american school quiz and I was told yesterday that I have a gov't exam.....great! so yeah...and I have to go observe today cause my observation is due on Friday....nothing like waiting last minute. I have a 5 page paper due next wednesday...haven't started that either...I'm thinking thats what sunday is for.
This weekend I am going to Hershey and performing around 9:50....we are the last band to perform, so that should be fun, except we are going to freeze or butts off. I remember last year and it was just absolutly horrible and our uniforms this year have less than last year so its gonna be worse. Really not looking for to that one. The band banquet is on the 19th and then a home playoff game on the 20th. So band is gonna go on forever and forever but atleast the football games are fun! but maybe not when it starts getting colder....cause it really hasn't been that bad on the weekends, we've been lucky. We haven't turned the heat on in our house and my mom was yelling at me cause we wont' turn it on cause it costs money. I'm sure we will eventually though. It wasn't too bad....well when I was studying yesterday it was but when I was asleep I was fine.
So I'm gonna stop rambling...I'll be home in exactly two weeks for thanksgiving!
Bye!

This is from Kelly, she can't post from hers so I posted it for her.
I haven't been able to update, but maybe someone will like it and it will post.
::takes a breath::
My mom called last night to let me know she signed up for Hopsice. For those who don't know what it is, people only sign up for this if u have less than 6 months to live. While ur in hospice they usually have a nurse that lives with you and when u get sick instead of going to the hopstial where their goal is to perserve life and make sure u stay alive, hospice is more of lets keep u as comfortable as possible and when u get sick u get sick, and u pass on ... allow nature to take it's course
When she told me this I was so proud of her. That's a really hard decision to make.. and for me to finally accept. Her battle with life has been unbareable for so long, I wouldn't call it giving up she's done everything possible... gone against the odds in all aspects. In all aspects she's won the battle...
Even though i've been prepared for this for a while, back in april when my mom wrote that e-mail about suicide.. but that doesn't mean it makes it any easier. Both of my brothers called me last night, it didn't seem like they were handling it too well.. david demanded me to come home (it seemed like he was a little teary..) and dan just didn't say much so I talked .. agian his tale tell sign he's really upset.
I told Leah last night and she said don't worry about finding a roomate, b.c i told her I need to go home, I already had my transcript sent to BCC and I mailed my application today for next semester.
My mom could leave next week, next month, etc. Here's what would happen.. she'll get sick as if she has an infection, (shakes, vomiting, etc.), but instead of giving her antibotics,they'll just give her stuff to make her "comfortable"...
I am the one of the strongest people I know, but it's hard not to cry everytime I talk about it...
I am so proud of her
Kelly
I love you Kelly and I'll always be here for you!!!

So work is back at the normal daycare....the mold is gone! which leaves me some free time to sit....actually I'm waiting for the laminater to warm up. I never used it before so it should be interesting. School is going ok....I have lots of projects and some papers coming up. I'm having the hardest time trying to figure out what to write it on....a critical paper about the like 7 stories we read. And I don't know what they are about cause she doesn't teach!!uuuggghhhh I hate that class soooo much. Everything else is going well. I got my schedule all figured out....thank god for the education department....if you can't get in a class they just put you in it from their computers...its great! so I got all of the classes that I want....
MWF I have Intro to Early Childhood Education 10-10:50
Child Development 11-11:50
Tues/Thurs Fundamentals of Math 9:30-10:45
Astronomy 2-3:15
Elements of Instruction 5-6:15
So thats not too bad...I'll probably most likely work on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday....but I won't have band anymore!!
So yeah...all my friends are great....Chris is great...and everything seems to be going well with school and band...I just wish I didn't have to do school work and life would be even better!
I'm going to west chester for the football game on Saturday....I hate traveling...it takes up so much time that I could be at home sleeping or with my other friends...but oh well, I'm sure I'l have fun anyways. I think we have an exhibition at night too but I'm not sure.
Its raining......so I'm thinking no band today, that would be awesome. I have to go to the Elementary school and observe after work this morning. I feel bad like sitting and staring at them but I have to so oh well.
Ok time to go check the laminator! Bye!

It's been soooo long since I updated...lets see...things are pretty much the same. I get up at 8am Mon-Friday work til 10:15 then I have a break til classes at 1pm. I usually either sleep, study, or observe at the elementary school. Then I either have classes from 1-6:15 or classes at 1 and then band til 5:30. So thats pretty much my schedule. Classes are going fairly well, no big problems quite yet. Band is going ok too. We don't have anything else to learn so practices are getting super boring but luckily the guard is so funny that its not too bad. I never want to go but once I'm there its alright. He took out our show tag cause it was supposedly only for allentown and it also sucked in allentown so it was just really really dumb and the guard is pissed cause we spent so much sectional time working on that and learning it. We have a football game against slippery rock this weekend and their band is visiting. And our football team is still winning we have an 8-1 record....so everyone keeps telling us we're going to Alabama for championships...thats way too long of a bus ride for me! So I'm thinking band is gonna go on forever.....and its gonna be cold...and our uniforms suck ass and we're gonna freeze but we can't find anything to go under or over them and if we did we have to pay for it ourselves and no one wants to cause its stupid, we shouldn't have to pay. We figure the majorettes don't wear anything different when its cold, we'll be ok. So we'll see. All my roomates are doing wonderful! We're all very happy in our townhouse....we have way too much fun here. And for those who don't know, I'm now officially dating Chris, its been a week and its going really well!And the weekend starts tonight! super super excited for that!
Thursday night: Drink
Friday night: Guard dinner at Red Lobster and hopefully drink
Saturday: Football game, mom and grandmom are coming to watch me perform and go to dinner, then my roomates and one of our friends and me are gonna be spice girls for halloween! So we're dressing up (we made awesome tank tops and I'm being made to be scary spice cause i have poofy hair, I was like thanks for that one guys....) and ofcourse drinking
Sunday: Lots and lots of work and going to our friends' house for dinner
Hope everyone is doing well! Bye!

Dear member of the campus community,
University Police are investigating two assaults on women that occurred
within the past 24 hours on campus, and are continuing to investigate an
earlier incident police think is related to the others. This message is
to inform you about the most recent incidents, to ask you for your help
in the investigation and to remind you about steps to take to protect
yourself.
On Sunday, Oct. 3, behind Heiges Field House on the steps leading to
the commuter lot, a female student was approached by a man who touched
her. The student ran to her car, but was followed by the man. She drove
away without being injured. This morning about 7:50 a.m., a female
student was running on the new portion of Adams Drive near McLean Hall
when a man ran up behind her and tried to touch her inappropriately. She
screamed and the man ran away.
These two incidents are similar to an incident on Sept. 23 involving a
female student to whom indecent comments were made while she was walking
on Eckels Field on her way to morning class.
The description of the assailant in all three cases is very similar.
The assailant is described as a white male, 5 foot, 11 inches to 6 foot
tall who was wearing a hooded sweatshirt. A composite sketch of the
individual is available on the university's web site at
http://www.ship.edu/~sunews/safety104.html.
As I mentioned in an earlier e-mail to you, we urge you to take
precautions regarding your safety. Among those precautions are to walk
in pairs or groups, walk in well-lit areas and avoid shortcuts, and use
the campus escort service or call University Police for an escort. It is
also important that you are aware of the locations of emergency phones
throughout campus. Some phones are located in various campus buildings
while others are placed in various other areas. A map with the locations
of these emergency telephones is available at http://www.ship.edu/~sunews/emergencymap.pdf. In addition, fliers with the
locations will be placed in residence halls and other
buildings.
The university is currently working with Pennsylvania State Police and
the Borough of Shippensburg Police in this investigation. We are also
currently reviewing surveillance tapes from areas involved in the
incidents.
While the university is taking a variety of steps to ensure your
safety, it is possible that you may be approached. If this happens, call
University Police from an emergency phone, your cell phone or the
nearest building as soon as you can do so safely. The sooner such a call
is made, the sooner police will be able to respond.
If you have any information about the incidents, please call University
Police at ext. 1444 from on campus or 477-1444 from off campus. Police
encourage you to call them if you see anything that looks suspicious.
Peter M. Gigliotti
Executive Director for University Communications & Marketing
So yeah....this was the letter that the campus got a couple days ago in our email....yeah its really really freaky...all the girls are super freaked out....any guy we see with a black hooded sweatshirt gets an evil stare. And after this letter went out...we found out that our friend susan was followed on her walk home from work on monday night....so yeah, this week has not been too fun...and there are some girls who are still out walking out by themselves at night...and i yell stupid at them cause they are being so dumb! It's pissing me off though that the girls aren't calling the cops right after it happened....like the one girl went to fucking class....why the hell would you go right to class...like seriously...the other girl went to her boyfriends...and the other girl just kept running...I don't get it...maybe I would react the same way but I would like to think that I would be calling the cops as soon as I could. And our friend susan never told the cops at all...so yeah these girls aren't helping the situation. I haven't told my mom and I don't intend to....omg she would freak out! I would never hear the end of it! It would just be bad. So yeah thats the exciting news on campus...I don't like being scared to walk on campus by myself. I've never been scared to walk on campus and now I am and its not fun.
So tomorrow night we are having dinner with our 3 guy friends who live around the corner...we're making tacos and pina coladas and they are bringing dessert and won't tell us what it is....we're are kinda scared. But it should be fun! And friday I am going out to dinner with Chris....that should be interesting. I'm so confused with all that right now....like we are something but we're not....and I don't know if we should be yet....I think I want to but then sometimes I don't...I don't know...same old crap. But I'm kinda sick of being something but not and feel like making it official...just try it out and see what happens I guess...its not like I have to marry him or anything (that is the great advice of the lovely carolyn!) Thanks Carolyn! Just thinking about that comment helps a lot. So I guess we'll see what happens on friday. Then saturday we have a home football game against Lockhaven. Then the band heads to Villanova to perform at something there and we are spending the night in some suites somewhere....my room is gonna be crazy....should be interesting! Then we get up sunday and go to allentown and I get to see everyone!!! So that will be my fun weekend! And all my roomates are having visitors come up and I won't be here :( that makes me sad! I'm mad! oh well...
well we're gonna head to our 24 hour cafe cause I've never been there! I'm excited!! and I washed my sheets and duvet cover so my bed will smell extra special!!

So I have 15 min left in work right now...and they ran out of things for me to do....not that I'm complaining or anything...so I figured I would type. They told me I'm too fast at doing stuff....snack today was applesauce...atleast it wasn't like a few days ago when I was trying to get the can lid off and it splattered all over my shirt and the kitchen, it was a mess!
So my el. ed interview went well....it was a group interview which I didn't know....there were four of us in there, so it wasn't too bad....the lady just went around the room and asked us 3 questions...the one was why am I there...like why didn't I declare El. Ed earlier...kinda like your little "story". The second was what characteristic do you think you need to be a good teacher...I said enthusiasm and a positive attitude and embelished off of that. The second one was what is the biggest challenge of being a teacher...and i said that being able to teach effectively so that all students can learn cause everyone learns differently. so I think it went ok, I'll find out on monday.
Last night Lisa and I went out...ashley was doin her paper and beth was pissed off. So I downloaded the song "I'm coming out" like the one from the jean commercial...and I sometimes go in my closet to change cause its sort of a walk in but not really...beth likes to think it is though. So its been a joke that I start singing that song....so I put the song on and like danced coming out of the closet...obviously a big joke cause I'm not gay....but it was so funny. Then retarded beth is talking online to one of our neighbors and tells him to come over to watch me do this cause its so funny...I was like nnnooooo!! I need more alcohol in me to do this!!It was hilarious though. So beth and our neighbor fisher drove us to the party and lisa and i were in the back seat and it felt like we were going to a school dance...and they were our parents, it was hilarious. So we went to Pi Lam...it was fun....got my ass slapped by two black guys though...that wasn't too fun...I was at the bar waiting to get beer and he smacked my ass like twice....and his friend comes up to me and he's like yo my friend just slapped your ass....I was like yeah I know...and he was like you enjoyed it...and sarcastically I said yeah I did and turned back around. I almost had to pee in the woods last night on our walk back but I didn't we stopped in one of the classroom buildings that is open 24 hours and peed. So all in all it was a good night...but I feel bad for Beth cause she's having BF problems....so I hope everything works out for her cause I hate to see her so upset.
Its supposed to rain all weekend...that sucks a lot!! I might get a fish or a turtle today!!! we're going shopping!!! I can't wait, I haven't gone shopping in forever, I feel so out of it!
I'm still mad that the girl who was drunk has to get up early and go to work and everyone else is still sleeping! that just doesn't make sense!
Get to see Kelly tomorrow!!!!
Time to go find out if I get my paycheck today! I better get it! Sucks for beth calling out of work now she doesn't get her paycheck....not like they are a lot of money anyway!

| Time: | 9:20 am. |
| Mood: | bored. |
|
So right now I'm super super bored at work.....cause the assistant director who usually gives me work to do isn't here and the director doesn't get here til 9:30. So that leaves me with nothing to do. I made snack already....you'll be happy to know that the children are eating snickerdoodles and milk for snack. I've never had a snickerdoodle before, so I tried one.........they were ok. I miss my babies at Chesterbrook soooo much! So all I have to do now is let people into the building b/c the doors lock at nine....well you would think that would be easy but ofcourse the office is locked and the phone at the frontdesk doesn't have the button set up for me to let people in, so everytime I see someone coming to the door I have to get up and let them in, I feel so stupid when i do it too...its kinda weird.
So yesterday I did nothing.....well I did a few small things...but nothing worth writing about...I only left the house to go to the mailbox and go to Sheetz. I was going to Sheetz with Ashley and as we were pulling out of our development a fire truck drove by and waved at us...and the kid was really really really hot! It made me happy. So yesterday I got up at noon, had breakfast...took 2 hours to get ready just to sit around my house, read the cliff notes for pride and prejudice...cause I said fuck reading the stupid book, had some lunch, started watching the eagles game, hooked up my printer, filled out an absentee ballot for voting, payed the cable bill, made dinner, tried to do some Bio, but that didn't work to well. The four of us kinda just sat around and talked for a while. I straigtened Beth's hair and watched tv and went to bed.
So for those of you who don't know the LBC is the Liquor Board Control....and they visit us a few times during the semester and it pretty much means every party is usually private. So a few weekends ago they set up a driving sobriety test outside my development so you couldn't go anywhere without going through it. So nobody really went anywhere. Well the next night we find out that a car crashed into College Park which are apartments in the development across from mine. And Rosemary stopped by last night to tell me about her night on Saturday and she said she sletp at her friends house and was woken up by toe trucks at 6am because someone was drunk driving and drove into 4 parked cars along the street. So its been a very interesting couple of weekends. We have been really really careful where we go and who we go with, its basically just don't do anything stupid. Like a kid that we are friends with came to beth's bday party on friday and we he left he went to another party and got an Underage, but he was just stupid, he picked up a chair and like launched it into someone elses yard....like obviously you're gonna get in trouble cause thats just being stupid. He blew a .21 on the breathalizer, thats so high. His roomate was with him but he's 21 so he didn't get in trouble. So they have been my few bad stories of the last two weeks and I'm glad to say I'm not involved in any of them and don't plan to be ever.
Hmmm...what else can I ramble on about....soooooooo excited to go to Rider with Kelly and which ever of my roomates decides to come! And sooooo excited for homecoming, Keri and Kelly are coming! and possibly Ashley's brothers! Omg! I'm sooo excited! and ofcourse Samy is coming!!
I have my interview for El Ed. on Wed at 10:30, I'm so nervous, but I think I'll be ok, I like to talk a lot, so I'm not worried, I just hope I say the right things!
Well I'm gonna stop rambling! ttyl bye

So I haven't really updated for a while....I don't even remember what my last update was about....so lets see....
My townhouse is awesome! I love it and I love being up at SHIP! We've had lots of little parties...lots of beer pong, Kings, and flip cup. Everybody is getting along great and we are all just having a blast!
My classes are alright. I like Sociology and American School. Bio Lab is alright, its not too bad. I absolutely hate Government and Politics and Intro to Literature...the two worst classes ever...that goes up there with geography from my first semester last year. So the work hasn't been too bad....Sun, Mon, Tues, are the worst days for work to do. Wed and Thursday I don't really have to do any work. So its not all too bad right now. I have Sociology with Lisa and Gov't and Politics with Beth and Ashley has American School this semester too, so we are all helping eachother out.
Work at the daycare is alright...better then I thought it was gonna be. I work 8:30-10:15....I make their snack and then I do whatever they need me to do, like filing, making copies, answer phones, let people in the building...so kinda just sitting around doing desk work. Then everyday I come home and sleep for an hour before my class at 1.
Band is going alright...not a big fan of going to practice but the football games are a lot of fun! I like all the girls this year too, so we make it fun! Our football team is like 15th or something in the nation right now, so its gonna be a long season, but hopefully worth it! We beat Kutztown, Shephard, and Bloomsburg already. Bloomsburg was the #1 team on the East of PA and we were on the West and we beat them 41-10, it was a fun game! They are playing Millersville on Saturday...but the band is off.
On Friday was my roomate Beth's bday so ofcourse we had a party....and it was a fucking awesome party!!! We needed some more boys there...but we're gonna work on that. It was awesome! $60 worth of alcohol....Beth had to be carried up the stairs to go to bed....it was great! There were people here that I had no idea who they were. It was a lot of fun! At one point I think there were like 18 people in my little townhouse, it was amusing. And we were sooooo loud, I don't know how we didn't get in trouble. We got Beth a bday cake and bought trick candles that don't blow out....haha it was sooo amusing watching a drunk girl try to blow them out, we were dieing, it was so funny. She got so mad she punched me in the stomach...but it was so funny. And then my parents came up on Saturday for family day...so that was ofcourse intersting. Lisa and Beth went home on Saturday so it was just me and ash for the rest of the weekend, we went to our friend's apartment last night and played a couple games and had a few beers, nothing to exciting but still fun. Then we went to Sheetz...I love sheetz, its great! Then came home and ate our food and then I went to bed and got up at like 12:15.
Homecoming is in 2 weeks! I am so excited!!! Cause for band we have the pep rally and parade and football game, and its the 80th anniversary of the band so alumni and stuff will be here so we're doing stuff with them and everything. And Samy is coming up!!!! and I think Kelly is gonna come up!!!! and Ashley's best friend Keri is coming up!!!! It is gonna be an awesome weekend, I can't wait!!!!!
I think I'm coming home this saturday to go up to Rider with Kelly, so I'm def. looking forward to that too! Cause I miss Kelly!
