So...I'm video blogging these days.

We were both young when I first saw you.

*sigh*
Is it Thursday yet?
I need it to be Thursday. After four PM though. Can you make that happen?
If you can, you're my hero.

Yesterday I found out that I made a 71 on my last history test. Even though it is a step up from my last test, it means that I have to do really good on my final to try to get a C in the class. School is so hard. Boo.

I'm just ready to get home. I don't have much to blog about because I'm just so excited that tomorrow is Thursday and that means I get to go home and I get to see Twilight. And my puppy. :)

And Kevin.

I have started to realize that it's almost Christmas break though. You know what that means? A long time without seeing my Nac friends. That will be sad. I can take it though. We lasted all summer without each other. We can do it.

Gosh...I've done nothing all day. Just sat here. I've tried to do some homework. But I think my teacher is making it up, because I can't find it in the book. Boo.

Also, I've been trying to get my dad to put the internet capabilities back on my phone so I can get ringtones. He doesn't really like the idea. Probably because I abused the privileges last time. The only reason that happened though was because I was watching whole football games on NFL Mobile when I was in Zeta meetings. I won't have to worry about that this time because I don't have those meetings, I can just watch them games on TV. :)

So daddy, I know you're going to read this. Pleaseeeee!!!

Ok...going to do more of nothing!!!

Did I wake you?

This weekend was a great weekend! Of course it was a weekend so that made it good to start with...but after the week I had...it was WELL worth it. I don't even want to go over all the stuff that happened last week...I'll just focus on the AMAZING-NESS of this weekend.
So, If you didn't know, Kevin came to visit me and to look for an apartment for next semester. Not only did that GRAND thing happen...but Kip also came to visit Marie, which was great because through the year and a half I've known Marie...I had yet to meet Kip. But I finally did...and he's coolio... :) (Watch out because he'll sing Koolio for you)

So, on Friday Kevin and I went to see Madagascar 2. Amazing movie. So funny. Usually the sequels aren't that great, but I loved it. Not only did he take me to a movie, but he took me to Marble Slab...mmmm...my favorite. :) On Saturday we woke up pretty early for a Saturday morning...in my opinion. We had lunch at IHop and then met Marie, Brandon, and Kip for the movies. We saw the new Bond flick, Quantum of Solace. I was one of the few Americans that missed out on Casino Royale...so I wasn't too excited about this movie...but they all were...so I sat through it for them. I almost fell asleep at a few parts, but it wasn't too bad. I am a sucker for British accents though...so I could handle that...and Daniel Craig's BLUE eyes. :) I miss Pierce though.

After that we decided that we were going to eat at La Carreta for dindin...but had till 5. Kevin and I drove around and looked at houses, our favorite time killer. We arrived early so we sat in the the car, next to a cactus with prickly pears on it. Kevin told me that he would go pick one for me. I thought that sounded rather sweet, so I told him ok. It was a horrible idea. It's "pricklys" get stuck in your fingers and it hurts really really bad. We both had our fingers covered and couldn't quite get them all out. Everyone else at the table thought it was a riot though...they need to just wait...one of these days they're going to be hurting and I'm going to just laugh at them. Ha. :)

That night we ended up hanging with Allison and Jeryca and walked around Hastings trying to play Rockband...but some kids wouldn't get off. So we came back to the room and watched Saw instead. Not my choice. I hated it. Again. No bad dreams though, so that's good.

Sunday we missed churh. Oops. Blame it on me. I was tired. Kevin wasn't too happy about it. Oh well. We have our whole lives to go to church. This was a great day for me though. Tony was back to play for the Cowboys! And they won! :) Kevin and I got pretty bored before the game started so we drove around and found some AMAZING houses. Very expensive looking houses. We want them all. Then we went to Pecan Park and played around on the play ground and took pictures. Today Kevin woke up early and went apartment searching. He thought he found the one he liked, but after I went to class (what would have been class, but it was cancelled) I took him to one more and we fell in love with it. Luckily they are very pet friendly and I can have Carrie and Dutchess up here with me. :) That made my already wonderful weekend even better!

I almost forgot about one of the best parts of today. Kevin, Marie, and I had a pizza picnic at the park! It was amazing. Looked beautiful. We took even more pictures.

So...I just have to get through classes all day tomorrow...Wednesday with nothing (WebCT day in Com class)...classes for Thursday...then I'm home free for Thanksgiving break! I'm pretty stoked! Not going to lie.

Oh...Kevin got his hair cut. I'm not going to lie, I was super nervous about the whole thing. He can pull off the long hair, but once it gets a certain length it's gross and way too long. I was pleasantly surprised. He looks amazing with his new hair cut. If you haven't seen it, go to my facebook and check out our new pictures.

So, gosh...great weekend! Can't wait for the rest of the semester to be over though...almost here!!!

The Best Day...

If you didn't know already, I'm am pretty much in love with Taylor Swift. Her new CD is AMAZING! I love all of the songs. My favorite is The Way I Loved You...but The Best Day is a close second. Taylor wrote it for her daddy...and I think it's a great song...So Dad, (since I know you're the only one that reads this), I dedicate this song to you.
I miss you when I'm at school!!!

I'm five years old
It's getting cold out
I've Got my big coat on


I hear your laugh
And look up at smilin at you
I run and run
Past the pumpkin patch
And the tractor rides
Look now, the sky is gold
I hug your legs
And fall asleep on the way home


I don't know why all the trees change in the fall
But I know you're not scared of anything at all
Don't know if Snow White's house is near or far away
But I know I had the best day with you today


I'm 13 now
And don't know how
My friends could be so mean
I come home crying
And you hold me tight
And grab the keys


And we drive and drive
Until we found a town far enough away
And we talk and window shop
Til i've forgotten all their names


I don't know who I'm gonna talk to now at school
But I know I'm laughin
On the car ride home with you
Don't know how long it's gonna take to feel okay
But I know I had the best day with you today


I have an excellent father
His strengh is making me stronger
God smiles on my little brother
Inside and out
He's better than I am


I grew up in a pretty house
And I had space to run
And I had the best days with you


There is a video I found
From back when I was three
You set up a paint set in the kitchen
And you're talkin to me
It's the age of princesses and pirate ships
And the seven dwarves
My Daddy's smart
And you're the prettiest lady in the whole wide world


Now I know why the all the trees change in the fall
I know you were on my side
Even when I was wrong
And I love you for giving me your eyes
Staying back and watching me shine


And I didn't know if you knew
So I'm takin this chance to say
I had the best day with you today

Of course the video I see from when I was three is just of me running around the back yard...swinging...and sliding...but it's all the same. :))

puppies = love

I'm down right now. I think all I need is my puppy.
If anyone would like to bring me Carrie I would be eternally grateful.

Thanks.

Good Grief.

It's a rather gloomy day in the neighborhood. Just like yesterday. Clouds. Rain. Yuck.

It's actually worse than yesterday. Probably because I have three classes today, not just one.

I don't know why I went to sleep on Sunday night at 9:30 when I didn't have a class till 2:30 PM the next day and then last night I didn't lay down till 2AM when I had to get up at least by 8:30 AM to go to breakfast. I guess my body doesn't understand the kind of sleep I need to survive. Oh well. I got up this morning. Probably because my mother called me at 7:30 and when I didn't answer she called me again. After letting her "hear my little voice" I tried to roll back over and go to sleep...only to get a text from Kevin about 10 minutes later. After reading it, and not responding, I rolled over yet again to try to get a little more sleep. It was hot in my room this morning so I yanked the covers off of me and just laid there looking at the wall. About 10 minutes after that Jeryca's alarm went off. It was 8AM. I decided that the world was trying to wake me up for some reason, so I rolled out of bed...not happy to be alive.

Oh well. I had breakfast with friends this morning. And I suppose being alive is better than the alternative.

I'm so ready for Thanksgiving break...it's almost here. Only 7 more class days till I'm out of here! Then it's a world of never-ending turkey...pumpkin pie...pecan pie...dressing...happy people...and Cowboys football. Oh gosh...sounds almost too good to be true.

Oh, but before Thanksgiving gets here, the day I get home for Thanksgiving break, I get to go to the midnight showing of TWLIGHT!!!! The movie is finally here!!! I don't think I can express how happy I am right now. I've been ready for this for a while...and it's going to be beyond amazing. I mean...BEYOND AMAZING!!! Robert Pattinson, AKA Edward Cullen, is going to be in Dallas today for autographs and such. Marie and I were trying to think of ways we could get there and not skip class. There was no way. You had to be at the Hot Topic at the Galleria by 6AM to get a wristband to meet him. Sad day. But knowing that he is just three hours away from me...wow...that's good enough. :))

Kevin is coming to see me this week and Kip is coming to see Marie. We are very excited about it. We're going to double date on Saturday night. It's going to be just like the movies. We're hoping that Kip and Kevin become good friends. Who knows if they will. (They better!)

Well now Kevin is complaining to be about not coming to him with my problems...it's going to be a great day in my neck of the woods!

As Charlie Brown puts it..."Good Grief".

I guess I'll write a real blog...

So, I need to catch back up on this blogging thing. I was doing a really good job of it last semester and I guess I gradually over the summer let it die. Probably because I think Marie and Dad are the only two people that read this thing and I tell them about everything anyway.
Last night I laid down at about 9:30 and was asleep pretty soon after that. That is probably the earliest I have gone to sleep in a long time. Probably since I was in Intermediate School. I wasn’t sick or anything, just extremely tired. When I woke up at 8:55 to go to the restroom I thought about staying up and starting my day early, but when I peeked outside and realized how ugly of a day it was...I changed my mind and crawled back in my bed.
My bed here at school isn’t half as comfy as my bed at home. After sleeping in my amazing bed at home I hate the one in my dorm. It’s lumpy...probably because the little eggshell thing I have, trying to make it comfier always lumps up and will never stay fixed...and the sheets aren’t my comfy red ones that I love. I can’t wait till winter break so I’ll have a month or so of total comfort!
It’s getting cold again. Who knows how long it will last this time. Hopefully longer than a day. Of course it came with rain...which made me not like today too much. But I do love the cold! I’m wearing a bright orange VV jacket today. Just because I can. :)) It makes me miss home. But on the positive side I will never get hit by a car because it’s so bright you can probably see it from Jupiter. Back to the cold...I love it! “It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas!” I’m already in the Christmas mood. They’re using the Christmas cups already at Starbucks. Not that I’m getting any Starbucks because I don’t have any money...but I’m sitting by Starbucks so I can smell all the wonderful coffee being made and drank by people that are lucky enough to have $5 to spend on it. (This is a plug to get my daddy to send me Starbucks money).
I have a huge history test on Thursday...which probably means that I shouldn’t be wasting my time writing a blog, and I should be studying. Oh well. I’ll do it later. I can’t sit and study for hours on end. I’m sure my head would explode. I also have a paper due on Thursday that I thought was due NEXT Thursday...so I’ll be working on that along with my studying.
So, Marie and I decided that we needed to change our AIM screen-names because her’s is old, and mine is about Zeta. If you have any ideas let me know because I am not that creative. (Dad, I don’t want anything about toenails...)
Ok, I guess this is enough of a blog for now. Maybe when I have something real to talk about I’ll write another one.

I wrote a poem

Boy meets girl.
Girl meets boy.
Boy likes girl.
Girl loves boy.
Boy leads girl on.
Girl follows boy wherever he leads.
Boy likes girl.
Girl still loves boy.
Boy leaves girl.
Girl misses boy.
Boy writes to girl.
Girl continues to love boy.
Boy doesn't go back to girl.
Girl goes to boy.
Boy drags girl further down.
Girl can't get enough of boy.
Boy lets go of girl.
Girl falls.
Girl loses all hope.
Girl is all alone.
Girl is lost.
Boy wants girl.
Girl loves another boy
Boy calls girl.
Girl falls again for boy.
Boy goes home to girl.
Girl loves boy.
Boy leaves girl again.
Girl loses all hope, is alone, is lost...again.
Boy forgets girl.
Girl moves on.
Girl finds hope.
Girl loves.
