school, housing and whatever else

August 12 2005
i went to band camp yesterday with heath. i saw brittney for like the second time this summer. that was fun. heath and brittney left for UT yesterday and alex left today. i hope they dont die at band camp.

rachel,amy, and elizibeth gave me a cake for my going away present. it was awesome. whitney came over late last night and ate some of it with me. then we watched tv.

i feel like i've wasted today,i mean i've only been up for two hours, but still, i havent been very productive.

everyone here in town started school yesterday, suckers. just kiddin. kyle called me and i have to send an email to UT housing and that way we can get everything worked out before we go up there.

well, i'm kinda in a bad mood, but i think thats cause i'm sick and tired pretty much all the time. some things kinda make me mad a little easier lately. i guess it's the tiredness. mainly it's just the parents askin questions all the time.

i came to the conclusion today that i dont like txt messages all the time. sometimes thier acceptable, most of the time thier not though. it's impersonal. dont you agree?

i cant wait till college. i have mixed feelings about it though at times.

you know, i said that things make me mad here lately, but i should look on the bright side, theres alot worse that could be happening to me other than this mono stuff. i need to be a better optimist, more like what i used to be.

being sick with good friends

August 07 2005
i was goin to go to church this mornin, but then i decided against it, i truly felt sick.

last night was fun, but we stayed at demos' too long. the dukes of hazzard movie was tight. i loved it. we left my car at the theater cause when i stood up after the movie i was dizzy and we didnt think it was good idea for me to drive. and then when we went back to get my car jessica and thomas insisted on jessica driving me home so, jessica drove my car and thomas followed. i got some awesome friends.

we pretty much have the dorm room thing worked out. so thats tight.

August 04 2005
so i got some not so cool news today. when i went to the doctor earlier this week, they werent for sure, but they thought that i had mono. well the blood work came back and it turns out that i do have mono. so i might have to quite my job. so tonight will probably be my last night. so thats a good thing, and not so good thing, cause now instead of gettin 3 more pay checks, i'll only get one. and it wont be a full one. i'm not so happy about that.

i found another thing of bad news. me and kyle arent room mates, and i'm not sweet mates with the guys that i was supposed to be. so me and kyle are workin on that like crazy.

so pray for both of those will ya?

August 03 2005
well i'm sick. but thats ok, i'll get over it. pray for me though. i have to go to work tonight,i called in last night and told them i wasnt comin, so i hope they dont fire me.

i was thinkin, this workin 40 hours a week this summer really cut into how much i was able to do. but i made the most of it and theres no reason to complain. but it really has taught me to keep on keepin on.

amber is goin to asia, thats cool.

i'm goin to go lay down, hopefully i can sleep.

today was tight. it was little dissapointing in the beginning, but it was alright soon after.

i went to cici's with thomas,jessica,and kyle. then we went to jasons house, but he wasnt home. we almost died twice in the car ride leavin his house. went to krogers and saw david,but he didnt want us there. i saw ashley schriber at krogers,that was cool.

get this, we left there and went to MR.JOLLEY'S HOUSE . that was so tight. we played his gallaga arcade game, thats right, he has a real arcade machine. jessica beat me and thomas, kinda funny.

i was goin to go to gatlinburg tonight with thom,kyle and everyone, but i'm glad i didnt cause i got to hang out with whitney tonight, that was alot of fun. it was as fun as the rest of the day altogether.

yesterday; toilet broken and the lake

July 23 2005
work on thursday night was horrible. it went by so slow. and then they had us stay over and work. i was mad

but friday was cool. i went out to eat with whitney and megan and then we took the boat to the lake and met up with my cousin and hung out there all day, it was cool. whitney or megan one broke the toilet in my bathroom. kinda funny, cause we were all just standin in the bathroom tryin to figure out what was wrong with it. they really didnt break it, it just chose that moment to stop workin.

i havent had as much energy lately as i usually do. i dont know whats wrong. i'm tryin to drink more gatorade, but i have yet to take any to work with me. i need to.

"road blocks part deux"

July 21 2005
so there are some road blocks though that arent there just so that the oil companies can make more money like i said in my last entry. for instance, train track crossings. when those bars come down and the lights blink and make a really loud noise, that means stop. but apparently this dummy i saw on the way home from work this morning didnt think so.

so i'm sittin at the intersection and i hear the track crossing at the intersection to my right start to ding and i'm like "there must be a train comin." but apparently this dummey on the other side thought that he needed to be somewhere in a hurry and he went around the guards. all of a sudden you here a screeching and a whistle blast thats non stop. why are some people so stupid.

work was alright, it went my extra fast.

"road blocks and non smoking lanes"

July 20 2005
well, this thing is kinda lettin me on now. it's wierd.

so i was drivin home from work this mornin, and i took a different way, but on that way, they had a road closed for about a mile and i had to take a huge detour. the sign said "road closed to through traffic". another words their just prejudice against through traffic. i could of driven all the way through and cut off about 7 minuetes of driving time. so the road isnt really closed, the road people that put up the signs have just teemed up with opec so that we, the "through traffic" spend more money on gas.

yesterday i was drivin home from the bank and i realized how i dont like how i can smell the person in front of me smoking. we should of have a preference like in restuarants. there should be a "non-smoking" lane. i dont want to get second hand smoke while driving down the road. actually, i dont care about the smoke, it's not like their smokin in my car, i just thought it was a funny idea. smokin is nasty anyways.

only about 4 1/2 weeks till school starts. that means only about 4 1/2 weeks of work left. YES.

historical significance of shotgun

July 12 2005
this one is for aimee d.

back in the old west, when they still used stage coaches, ecspecially the wells fargo company, a person would ride shot gun, another words they would sit in the passanger seat holding a shot gun, and would shoot the person that tried to rob the stage coach, cause the stage coaches were known to carry alot of money with them.

ya, i know, i'm a dork for knowing that one, but i know.

"dibbs"?

July 12 2005
so, what exactly is a "dibb"? you know, like when you call "dibbs" on the couch or somethin. i guess you are "dibbing" when you do that, so does that make you the "dibber" or the "dibbee" kinda like the employee. but still, what is a "dibb", cause when you call shotgun for the front seat, that has a historical significance, and so does the frase "rosa parks" when you call that to save a seat you already have. but what is "dibb"?

alright, i know that was kinda stupid, but i was bored.

work was alright.

how about that home run derby. i meant to record it last night on the Tivo since i was workin, but i recorded the wrong thing, so i'm goin to record the re-run today while i'm, thats right, sleeping.
