starting life

Yay I graduated. Yesterday. It feels sort of weird being graduated even though I've already been out of school for 3 months. Its like during those 3 months was a break and I didnt have to really worry much about anything. But now that we're entering the summer months it means I really have to get serious with my decisions. I'm such a procrastinator... but I'll worry about all that later :)

Someone told me the other day that highschool is the best time of your life. What a letdown. I'm gonna have a really crappy life then.
-I'm not dumb enough to actually believe that. Highschool couldve been really fun. I just didnt put in enough effort to get the "fun" out of it. If I cared then maybe I would feel really regretful right now as I look back. Fortunately for me I dont care.

Oh if you read this and havent heard, I am having a grad party at my house on sunday, june 5th from 2-6p. If you need directions or something call or email.

Welp, I guess thats it. Signing off....
you know it

new york is fun

The Red's won. It was a fun game. I guess this means we should go to more games and maybe they'll start winning.

College update?... Cincinnati Christian UNiversity or Temple Baptist College (could potentially get in for almost nothing bc my grandpa is a trustee)
Sort of feeling uneasy ab. Temple for some reason- maybe bc its so small (150 ppl) and they only use KJV, and they have like 3 or 4 majors. But then again, i have no idea what i will major in so I'm not that picky at this point.

Random: My brain feels like jelly a lot of the time when I think about the future, or anything responsibility related, really. I like to sink into unreality.

I went with some fam to Philadelphia this wkend for my cousins grad party. We went to New york city on friday- it was my first time. I really liked it a lot but we were rushed bc there wasnt much time and so much to see. Some of us also went to downtown Phillly like sat. night like to see the historical stuff. We got lost a few times too and thats always fun. Lost in downtown Philly at night with my dad, sis, and bro-in-law, in a 12 passenger white van with a Boone, KY liscense plate. Ghetto.

Love? Who the heck knows. I dont want to screw anything up.

Have you ever thought about starting a relationship with someone you already know but terrified bc you can see it turning serious so quickly and you woudlnt know how to break it off bc you dont think he's the one for you?
No?
Me neither...

I got my KI pass finally. Publicly announcing to anyone wanting blue ice cream- call me!
-i dont mean to rub it in c.alice. You are the best blue ice cream friend ever and no one could ever take your place :)

Graduation is sunday! STill looking for white shoes- i never wear white shoes. This is craziness.

And thats my update.

I love you


I'll tell you in another world when we are both cats.

thinking of blue ice cream

Graduation is irritating. I've been trying to get my announcements together and sent out and it takes FOREVER.

I need to get a kings island pass soon. LIke within the next 3 days... right.

I must say it over and over again for myself: God is in control. yes, God is in control.
He leads. He teaches. He loves unconditionally.


I miss my friend already.

I love rainstorms!

Hey All... Its been awhile for me on here, i havent been very consistent in writing.
I finally sent in my entire application to CCU last week. I must still apply to Raymond Walters and i guess thats all. We're still working on that whole decision thing though.

Read Blue Like Jazz if you havent already its really a great book..and funny too.

Graduation is sunday, may 29. SUNDAY NIGHT--isnt that so weird? Who has graduation on a sunday night? So I'll probably have my party the next saturday like june 4? I had a party last week with Carol and that was totally fun, and thanks to all that came..we didnt think anyone would show. But i have to have a party for like all the ancient family friends and all too at my house. It'll be fun though. But I dont really want to graduate yet. I like being out of school whne everyone else has to go. There's less traffic everywhere. And less people to run into when I'm at the store or something. But I'm glad summer is almost here. It's almost tan time!

My chrissi alice is leaving sooon... my blue ice cream buddy. I am tempted to sneek in her backseat and travel along. She will be greatly missed. But when she comes back we'll party all the time:)
And yes, cAlice ... it's YOU I'm looking for...
Or I'll just hop on one of my 300 camel fararis with air condition and come visit with my arabic husband.

Anyways, enough of this nonsense that nobody else understands.
It's time to depart... I need to go call someone that has cancer.

Love you.

blue like jazz

"I was wondering the other day why we turn pop figures into idols? I have a theory, of course. I think we have this need to be cool, that there is this undercurrent in society that say some people are cool and some people aren't. And it is very, very important that we are cool. So, when we find somebody who is cool on television or on the radio, we associate ourselves with this person to feel valid oursleves. And the problem I have with this is that we rarely know what the person believes whom we are associating ourselves with. The problem with this is that it indicates there is less value in what people believe, what they stand for; it only matters that they are cool. In other words, who cares what I believe about life, I only care that I am cool. Because in the end, the undercurrent running through culture is not giving people value based upon what they believe and what they are doing to aid society, the undercurrent is deciding their value based upon whether or not they are cool."

-From the book "Blue Like Jazz" by Donald Miller.
