Nov. 18
So I'm at work right now... don't know how long I'll be able to write... Anyway, Monday was pretty good... I went to all of my classes! Hellz yeah! Other than that it was pretty mundane. I went to classes and than work. Work was okay... kinda boring though. It was a Monday... and on Monday's we're not even technically open... so yeah... but now I'm pretty much done with work... I got about 15 minutes before I'm up on out of here. So where was I?... So yesterday after work I got to relax for about an hour before I had to meet with Danielle, Craig & Katie. Was with them until 9 and heard about a car chase that happened right down the road at 1 am, so I turned on the news and got to see a bit of it. So apparently it's kinda hard to take a corner going 150 mph in a... Ford Taurus?... I didn't even know they could break the 55 mph barrier! So anyway... this chump ended up taking a dive off of like a 200 foot cliff! (actually I don't have any idea how high it was... I figured 200 sounded like Godzilla big...) But yeah, so after his car plummets down into the grassy sand...?... he gets up and walks away! Than about 10 minutes later the newscaster said "cha ching"! What kind of news cast is this?! If I wanted to see the circus I would have went to France! Than I hung out with the quad a bit, but was way too tired and they were way to energetic... so it was kinda like oil and water... they just kind of rested on top of my water or oil... I don't remember what one is what... and I have no idea where I'm going with this analogy... (ps it is now about 10... and for some reason I am just dead... like I feel like I could pass out at any second... but I really don't want to go to sleep right now because I have a ton of homework to do but if I try to start it now I know I won't last 3 seconds... sigh...) So than I just came back here and really started trying to play guitar and I wrote a song (which will not be put on my website, because I know that people will end up misinterpreting it... so if you really want to read it... and your name is Liz : P than let me know)
Anyway... Mandy came over at like 1ish or something... she was doing laundry and Katy was asleep, so she needed some company. Sigh... of course I was more awake than then I was all day... and I ended up not getting to sleep until around 6 in the fucking morning... than I ended up missing my econ class again today... 3rd fucking lecture I've missed in a row... shit... suck me sideways and barrade me with flaming marbles... I actually want to go to that fucking class! Anyway, went to work, which was really fun even though I was way tired... got invited to a party I guess...? Anna & Charlie invited me to Charlie's girlfriend's surprise party... only problem... it's on December 19... which was going to be the day I was heading back on... so now I don't know what to do... sigh... for a little bit more on why I'm confused, you can look at my "secret thoughts" page or whatever its called... So after work I had to go to my American Popular Music class... and I thought I was gonna last about as long as a popsicle in the sun I was so out of it... but than I saw the topic and knew I shouldn't have a problem... SOUL & FUNK!! lol Brought back some good ol' Raytown car driving memories! And quad dancing memories! And memories of that one time I saw this rabbit... and he wanted my Trix... and I made him an offer he couldn't refuse... : \ Anyway, it was kinda sucky though cuz we had a substitute (apparently it was the guy who taught the same class, just at a different time) He was kind of a mama's boy... and a... I really don't feel like being creative now so I'll just call him a bulbous, penis breaking, jamwazy of a complufmagacion... lol... I'm Allie's magassistant! lol... but back to the problem... this guy's example of a rock beat was the words, "chunga wanga, chunga wampa" Who the fuck says that?! At all?! The only way that is related to rock at all is it's the noise he makes after he done snorted up a fucking kilo of rock! I honestly have no idea where I am right now... : \ Omg... I forgot to say... apparently I was sleep talking again the other night! And I have no idea if I've talked about this already... seriously... so I'll take it and run with the damn ball... if you've already heard this, feel free to skip over it... So I guess about 3 am (that's right! I was actually asleep before 3!) I must have been just falling asleep... and Jim said he heard me mumble some jibberish... and than all of a sudden I yelled out either "Hannah" or "Anna!" lol... My mom has said that I've sleep talked before... so I took Jim's word for it... (I am like the worst person in the world to sleep with! am I not? : P ) But than last night... I saw that Jim sat up at like 5:30... and it looked like he had no idea why... so I figured I'd mess with him a bit... and I screamed "Jiiiiiiimmmm!" and than proceded to get half of a moan out before I started cracking up... He actually thought I was sleep talking again too! But back to today... nothing much really happened... I seriously have no idea what really happened between 3 and 6 in the afternoon... is that normal?... Oh well... Katy came down about 6 so we could get some food... and after waiting for the elevators and waiting for the elevators... we got back around 11:20 (aka 6:30? I have a very bad "sense" of "time") And we talked and ate... and watched 8 Simple Rules... awwww... John Ritter was da man!... So than Mandy called from work and we were talking with her... and than I just couldn't take it anymore and I ended up falling asleep... I feel so bad... Somehow I slept for almost 2 hours in the most uncomfortable position ever! I had like one leg hanging off the bed, another half on a chair... another resting on the radiator... another just sticking straight up in the air... and than my arms were all twisted like... plastic-man?... I am really running on empty here... sigh... Like I told Melescope... I think I'm a narcoleptic insomniac... sometimes I'll lay in bed for like 3 hours when I'm really really tired and I can't fall asleep... other times I fall asleep in the most uncomfortable places... like the back of a Volkswagen... (Mallrats gag) And now I am going to eat... and go to bed... hopefully... : \ (ps Davey has a big day ahead of him tomorrow!) : P
Nov. 20
Little did Davey know just how big his day would be... omg... Wednesday was the worst day of my life by far... I swear it seemed like the day was only an hour long... but than again it also seems like it was about a week... I'll try to explain... so I ended up going to bed about 2 am because I really wanted to get up and go to my 9 am communications class... I was fast asleep... when all of a sudden I open my eyes and Katy and Allie are standing there... I look over at my clock and it was 3:30... They told me something happened to Mandy... and then they told me what... (p.s. Mandy is fine now, but I am not going to say what happened on the site...) after that I just couldn't sleep... it really hadn't even sunk in yet either... not until I asked Jim if he was still awake... and then if he heard what Katy and Allie said... and he said he was trying not to listen... but its kind of hard to drown things like that out... and I felt really bad for Jim too because he wasn't even involved but now he was whether he wanted to be or not... so I tried to apologize to him... and that is when it really hit me... what happened... and I just couldn't say anything... my eyes welled up... I got that lump deep down in your throat and I couldn't swallow... but my mouth was bone dry... I was finally able to weakly mutter an apology in between my heavy breaths... I didn't know what to do... so I went online to see if anyone was there to talk to... Katy was on, and me and Allie went over there... it was so weird there without seeing Mandy there... We all just stayed there, talking and thinking and wondering what happened until 5 o'clock when we went down to Columbia St. Mary's to go see how she was doing... (Columbia is only like a block away from the dorms) We all went out walking in the freezing cold... and when we got there, the ER was deserted... there was one person in the waiting room... and really not another soul to be seen... finally like 5 minutes later a receptionist walks in and we tell her that we're here to see our friend and everything... So she tells up that she just got transferred to County about 30 minutes ago... we leave... very disappointed... and even more worried and scared... (she gave us the phone number to where Mandy was though...) So we got back and called, and they said that their visiting hours didn't start until 8... not only that... but she was being a fucking bitch about it to Katy!... We made the decision to go see her at 8 than, so I went to go take a shower to try to get my mind off of things... Of course I forgot that the majority of my thinking I do in the shower... I know it sounds weird... but its a place where I go when I need to just sort things out and think about them... really not the place I should have been at a time like that... as I soon found out... I met back up with Katy and Allie around 6 and we were all sooooo hungry... so we were waiting for the cafeteria to open... (it sucks because between 2-7 am there is no place to go that you can get food in the dorms!) About 6:30 we went down to the cafeteria and staked the joint out and sat down right next to the doors... just waiting for someone to open them... Finally they did and well... we would have ran in their with a take no prisoners attitude if we weren't so tired and exhausted from everything that had happened... (I ended up with getting around 6 hours of sleep throughtout almost 72 hours... but Allie was even worse... she didn't even get 1 hour...) after we finished eating, Allie went and called her mom and Katy did the same... I went and took a shower... the last thing I need is my mom knowing something like that... I really should have made better use of my time though... I forgot just how much I think/dwell on things when I'm in the shower... that was not the best idea I've ever had... We all met back up with Katy and headed out over by Childrens at 8. After traveling for almost 1 and 1/2 hours on 2 buses... we finally got to the hospital around 9:15... it took us almost another 30 minutes to finally find out where Mandy was supposed to be... and when we finally got there... we found out her mom and dad came by and took her home a little after 9... needless to say... it was a little disheartening and enfuriating... on our way back out we left a message on Mandy's cell and on the suite phone just in case she was going back to the dorms to pick up her things. We ended up waiting for like 30 minutes just for a bus to show up on the way back... so we were finally heading back about 10ish... by this point we were all pretty hysterical and stuff... we were all going pretty crazy... until we actually did see a crazy person on the bus... I was so freakin' scared by this guy... he was like 6'3"... 350 lbs... and... he looked like the pizza pizza guy (allie)... so when the bus was stopped for a longer than usual time... all of a sudden... this guy just starts whistling as loud as he can... and he keeps going... and the look on his face... i thought he was going to just pull out a crowbar and make some people ugly or something... he finally ended up stopping... but within 5 minutes he was talking to this guys lap top like it was a dog... and than just yelling out gibberish... after that I didn't say a damn thing... needless to say make eye contact with the fucking psycho... he finally got off... and it seemed that everybody on the bus seemed to start breathing again... we made it back to the dorms about 11:15 and Katy needed sleep... and so did Allie (even though she didn't get any)... so they went their own ways... and I went to my room to try to do some homework or something to get my mind off of things... (p.s. we all stopped by the suite with Katy and Mandy was there and we missed her, but she left us all a message) when I was in my room I remembered that I had still had to turn in my time card for work... thank God I remembered... so I went and turned it in with literally about 30 minutes to spare... than I came back... didn't go to business class... didn't sleep... just sat here... come 2, I had to go to work... (hoping to get my mind off of things I guess...) I don't know if that was a good idea or not... I didn't really say anything to anyone... it was a kinda quiet and somber atmosphere in general... when I got back from work I got a call from Mandy... I was so relieved to finally get a chance to talk with her and find out what happened and most important make sure that she was ok... we were talking until about 6 and than I had to get ready because me and Katy were still planning on going to the Battle of the Bands here... (it really seemed weird... neither of us was really sure that we wanted to go...) I think it was good that we did for a little while anyway... We got to see Mel and talk with her for a bit... Got to see and talk with the band for awhile too (even though the only one I know is Brit) So it was awesome getting to see those two... I hadn't gotten to see either one for almost 2 months... Obviously the concert isn't the best place to talk... especially with what had happened that day... but it was just good to see them. After the second band me and Katy decided to leave... it just didn't seem right and all... and I hadn't gotten done with any of my homework, so I had to at least make an effort to try to do a little. So I got back and called my brother (Mike) and we talked about things for awhile... I don't really remember a lot that happened after that... I know I talked to some people online... I just couldn't consentrate on work... and I ended up finally getting to bed by about 1 because I just couldn't take it anymore... I think that was my lonliest night ever... I just thank God that now that's all in the past...
Nov. 23
So Friday night I ended up actually starting my paper that I had to do for Saturday... well... I actually started it about 2ish Saturday morning... : \ But I did end up finishing both paged by about 3:30 and I made my way to bed... got a call about 9:45... I forgot that I had "asked" for a wake up call... : \ I made my way down and met with the group about 10ish and we had our little meeting thing... and what's that?... Dave's the only one who finished his paper?... What the fuck are the odds of me ever being able to say that I was the only one in a group that did all the work he/she was supposed to do?! Anyway... the meeting was only fairly productive... but hey... Craig hooked me and Danielle up with free food! Got back to the dorms about 1 and than Mike came to pick me up... (I was in desperate need of going back home... if only for a little while) (thanks again Mike for everything bro!) He got up here about 2 and we grabbed a quick something to eat before we left... I didn't realize that only one of the restaurants is open in the union on Saturdays... shows how much I actually know about this school huh?... Anyway... we headed on our way back and had an entertaining ride as always when me and Mike are together... ended up meeting Jeff at Best Buy (I bought Super Smash Bros. and an extra controller for my Game Cube... so now I actually have more than one game... and more than one person can actually play at a time too!!! : P ) Than we went over to Mike's and chilled there for awhile having a great time... Jeff picked up Josh and he came by too... We got some pizza and me and Mike went to pick up Liz... after that Mike, Liz and me all went to the Miss Racine thing to go see Briana... (who didn't win... even though she deserved it more than fucking bobble-head!! : P ...Mike and Liz know what I'm talkin' bout!) So that was actually a really fun time!! We all had a blast! (well... it seemed like everyone did anyway... I know I did... : P ) After it got out and we had to drop Liz off... about 10ish I think...?... we met back up with Jeff, Josh and Nina and all hung out over at Mike's until about 1:30 when he had to kick us out (he had to "teach" Sunday school again : P Hang-man time everyone!! : P ) So I tried studying and doing a little bit of writing when I got home... ended up staying up until about 3:30-4ish and I left my mom a note and went to bed... (have I ever mentioned how much I love my mom?! She is the best ever!!! it kinda weired me out... but when I went into my room... I realized that she turned the page on the calendar in my room... she didn't know I was coming or anything... so she just must have done it... and I don't know... I guess it really is the little things that matter...) She woke me up before she went to church (I would have went... but she had to go to the early one... and I didn't want to fall asleep or anything) I told my friend Geoff that we would hang out this weekend because I haven't even seen him since I've been up here in college... so he called me at 11... which... well... let's just say my bed was my best friend in the world at that point in time... and I really didn't want to leave... so I ended up going back to sleep after I answered the phone... woke up about 12:30 and slowly made my way out of bed... : ( I got to talk with my mom for a long time just about things... That was awesome... I miss my mom and dad so much (my dad was up hunting so I didn't get to see him... hunting like good ol' Elmer Fudd... be vewy vewy qwiet... I'm hunting wabbits... hahahahaha... : \ ) Anyway... so than I went over by Geoff's and we hung out the whole day just having a good time... Ended up going to Best Buy... again... lol... I got Punk-o-Rama Vols. 4 & 5... actually listening to them now... just got done with 5... kicks more ass than is in the whole Rodney King tape!!! 4 ain't no slouch either though... Compilations rock... that's all I gots ta say 'bout that. Had to go home about 5:30 and I got to talk with my mom a little bit more... than Mike came by and I went over to his house and we were just chillin there until almost 10 when he drove me back up... we tend to get really philosophical on the ride back up huh Mike? lol... I never thought I could ever see either of us saying the things we say! lol... Anyway... another strilla ride... really sucks when I actually get back to the dorms though and I have to say good-bye... especially when I realize how much my friends mean to me... like when I got back to my room... and after Jim was done watching a movie... I put in my "The Used" cd... and I put it on quiet so I wouldn't disturb Jim or anything... (which is not the way to listen to that cd... but I did it anyway... trying to be considerate I guess...) Not even halfway through the first song does he sit down at his computer and just start blasting some fucking rap... I was like... dude... I'm trying to be considerate of you here and what do you do?... throw it right back in my fucking face!!! And what really pisses me off... is he's only like that when it's me and him in the room... If someone else is here... he doesn't act like a "goat raping fuck twat" to quote Liz : ) Once in awhile he'll be cool when it's just me and him and we'll actually talk and stuff... but most of the time he seems pretty content with making my first roommate experience as much like hell as he possibly can... (ok... so that's a little harsh... maybe...) I can't wait til next year, when I'm hopefully moving out of here... if everything ends up working out... which, when I'm the one making the plans... has about a good of a chance of working out as Jennifer Lopez has of actually staying with Ben Affleck... even after she sucks all of the life out of him... and not only that... but becoming a Noble Prize winner and an acclaimed scientist for developing the first working "time machine"... Murphy's Law huh? "what can go wrong, will go wrong..." Anyway... this should be a decent week... I get to clean out my fridge so nothing spoils when I'm gone!!! Looks like I'll have to "enjoy" my orange juice before December 3rd... don't you think they're getting a little ahead of themselves there?... How do they know I'll enjoy they're fucking orange juice!? What if it's the worst orange juice that was ever freshly squeezed huh?! Or maybe I'm just reading a little too much into this whole "enjoy" thing?... Or maybe it's just 3 am... and I've gotten about 20 hours of sleep all of last week (not including last night though) Millencolin is rocking my face off at present/current time... they sound really good... And I'm so pissed that I won't be able to go to the Thursday/Thrice/Deftones concert on the 3rd!!! I can't wait to see everyone (friends and family) this Thanksgiving!!! And my mind is making random connections to which I am probably the only person seeing connections... I keep turning my hat like every five seconds!!! And shit... Dave just remembered that he has econ tomorrow... to which I say I must go to!!! That and I'm just going crazy... (but first I must enjoy my orange juice!!! which is actually quite tasty!! : P ) I hope tomorrow/today will help make sense of everything... : ( I'm sooo confused about... well... everything... : (
