Ice skates make me taller

So my schedule is now official. I got into the Language Development class that I needed for the CSD major, so I've dropped the dreaded Logic!! Now my lunch is at 11 but whatever. Now I'm deciding if I want to keep my meal plan, or change it to get more flex dollars. I'm so unsure, and that's pretty much the only thing I'm unsure about.

Last Wednesday, Gordon told me to dress really warm because we were gonna have a picnic. Mind you, this was one of the days that it was like -13 degrees outside. I thought he was crazy. So I dressed warm, and went to his house. Instead of going outside, he set up a one of his sheets (plaid and green) on the floor and had little tea lite candles everywhere. It was the cutest thing I've ever seen. We watched "Love Actually", which I had never seen before and thought it was alright, and he made me a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. I asked him why he did it on that particular Wednesday, and he said just because he missed me. I was and still am quite smitten. Now I'm just wondering what he's gonna do this Wednesday (our 3 month) because he asked for my entire schedule......scaaaaaaary....

At work, I'm left with about 5 hours a week. I'm hoping to pick up some random ones, and I'm working the ice skating table an extra two hours twice this week. Yes! There's ice skating at Wooster! They've turned the back patio into a little rink. It's really cute. We all went last night, and it was super fun, until my camera died, I only took like three pictures. We'll have to go again. The rink is kind of bumpy and isn't completely frozen, but it works. I was about face to face with Gordon in my skates, it was pretty awesome. He said I should wear heels more often. I'm so up for that, I'm just trying to find a new pair. He and I need some pictures together, we need to work on that.

Kelley came out on Friday night. I felt bad because there wasn't really anything to do. We went to the showing of The Dark Knight, and then we went to my room and played Phase 10. Joe won after complaining that he hates that game. Then Saturday, we convince Sebastian to drive down to Wooster, which isn't far from his native Medina. I was so excited, it's been over a year since I've seen him. It was really nice. Hopefully he'll stop by again! It was a good weekend.



I feel like doing something tonight. And I need to call my mom, I haven't in a while. Hmm....yah, we'll see whats up.

I think that's it.

Logic scares me.....

I'm back at Wooooo!!! But, my heat is not working, so when I got to my room, the temperature was pretty much colder than it was outside. All three of us were wearing hats, and gloves, and I was contemplating sleeping in my winter jacket. So going against the rules, we went out and bought a lovely little space heater. It's all cute and after only a day it heated up the room pretty well! This creepy guy keeps coming in and fiddling with the heater, but I don't think it's doing anything. Oh well, my space heater works for now. The picture is what my room would be like without my space heater.

So, I got here around 12, unpacked, went to lunch, blah de blah. And I went to swing dancing that night. It was mucho fun. I danced with Katie, and then finally Gordon got there. How I've missed him so. It was a nice time. I learned some moves that hopefully I can remember so Katie and I can finally dance!

I started my classes yesterday. First I have Spanish again, same teacher, different classroom (this one sucks). It should be fun. Second I have The Visual Text, which is kind of like a stage crew class aka awesome! I get to do running crew and all kinds of fun stuff. Third is Logic and Philosophy. This one scares the crap out of me. I didn't realize it was going to be so hard. It's like math, but not. And I'm bad at math....I'm just really scared that I'm going to do horribly. Oh well, keep my hopes up. Then today, I have one more class in about a half hour, Language Disorders in Children. I think it should be pretty interesting, but I don't get out of it till 4. Gordon's gonna come pick me up and I think we're gonna get some food. Shnazzy.

Oh yah! I put up my Lucy poster and my LiveLavaLive poster! I'm excited. My room flippin rocks. I also blew up my workout ball today. I'm excited for this new semester minus Logic. And my swipe card has been being retarded...I need a new one. They cut my hours at work from abou 7.5 hours, to 5.5 hours. I'm thoroughly annoyed, but whatever.

Ok, I'm done for now. More later!

2009- Hope it's fine

Woo 2009!!! Started it off with a party with only my closest friends. Katie, Paulette, Marshall, Jason, Chuck, Nico, Cory, and Jane. It was very fun, we watched "The Dark Knight" and then we watched the ball drop, and then finished the movie. It was very enjoyable and I'm glad I got to see everyone. Hope everything else this year goes as well as that night did. I called Gordon and it was funny because he was like "Oh yah, it's already new years there...you sound a little drunk..." lol it was funny. And since Gordon was all the way in California, Katie was my New Years Kiss. But yah, fun night.



Christmas was good. I got an iPod nano, it's blue. I also got guitar hero, a work out ball, and an I Love Lucy poster amongst other things. Christmas eve was funny because little three year old Ryan has trouble saying his "K's" so he ran into my room, intending to say he saw my kitty...but it came out "Tatie!! I saw your titty!!" He just kept saying it over and over again. Alyse, Kell, and I were busting out laughing, it was great. Also, Kell volunteered to be Santa Claus, and Ryan realized it was Kell so he refused to take his Christmas present. It was hilarious.

I had my first speeding ticket...ugh "78" in a 60. That cost me $149. Yeeeeee. Oh well, I do not intend on getting another one. I'm gonna be looking online at Mazda 3's and 6's to see how much money I need to save up to get one. I'm looking at getting one either this summer or next summer, depends.

I've also started using Crest Whitestrips, they seem to be working...ish...I just need to keep doing it, and then hopefully they'll be gorgeous!

Hm, so that's about it. End of my 2008 story, now for the fun of 2009. I'm really looking forward to it, and all the money to come (Minimum wage raise!) woot! I just want to shop! lol

I'm too emo to think up a good title

Well, tomorrow, rather today, is Christmas Eve. I'm excited that my family gets to come over, but I'm completely and utterly annoyed with my immediate family. They keep fighting (mostly it's Alyse) and it really wears me down. I hate the fighting, and I always have to just listen to it. I like to try to resolve it, but no one listens to me. I just feel like getting in the car and driving for hours, but of course I'd get yelled at for that. I'm also the only one that does housework while my parents are at work, but whatever. It's getting old, and I just want to go back to Wooster where there is NO fighting at all.

I've talked to Gordon pretty much every day since I've been home. He called me on our anniversary (2 months!), and he liked my present :) It just sucks that he's three time zones back, because I have to stay up late to be able to talk to him. It gets wearisome, but it's worth it in the end. I miss him so much and really just need the hug of a lifetime right now with all thats going on.

My computer keeps jumping sentences, I don't get it. It will jump back to the sentence before it and just start typing what I was typing there. It's really odd, and annoying as hell.

From the looks of it, I'm not gonna have a white Christmas, and that really brings me down. So I guess my break is going to be as depressing as it will get. I know I'll be able to see most of my friends, but there are others that I won't see. Andrew keeps calling me tonight, because he's drunk and he wants me to drive him to the gas station. Yah, no thanks buddy...

I'm pretty emo right now and I need a smile like no other. I just want everything to be nice and smooth for the rest of my break. That's really all I want. I'm sick of the boredom, and the fighting. I want to go back.

Three time zones away seems like forever...

I'm home for a month! Ahhhh!!! It's going to be the longest month of my life. I sit at home, while everyone else is at school or work, no car, nothing to do. So I lay around, and do NOTHING! And the worst thing, Gordon is three time zones away. I've talked to him pretty much every day, either on Facebook or on the phone, and he flatters me more than ever. I just miss him like crazy. I sent him a Christmas present though, and he's gonna love it! I'm excited lol.


I miss him :(


I went to stage crew on Monday night, they would have been lost without me and Katie, that's all I have to say.

So, my sister's birthday party was last Saturday. All of my cousins were there, along with Katie, Sarah, and one of Carmen's friends. Kelley and Carrie were supposed to sleep over, but Carrie decided she didn't want to. Now, my mom said Carrie's mom called and is worried about the fact that Carrie didn't sleep over, like were we offended. She said that Carrie says that Me, Alyse, and Kelley are mean to her. I know for sure that Kelley is, but me and Alyse have never been mean to Carrie. We hate when the two of them fight, so much. But anyway, I guess Carrie, Domenic, and Carmen have created a little thing against me, Alyse, and Kelley. I have no idea when this all came about. I wish we could all just go back to how we were. Close and no fighting, yah there was fighting, but we were kids. This shouldn't be like this. We're all growing up, we shouldn't be immature about this. It's really taking a toll on me, because I was so proud of how close we all were. I can't take this...I really can't....

I have a movie to pick up at the library. It's a classic comedy called "The Lady Eve". It'll give me something to do on these days home alone. I'm excited


I need to finish Christmas shopping....gah!

I don't have emo bangs

Well, my finals are over and I'm going home tomorrow night. I'm gonna miss Wooster and my friends, but I'm excited to see my friends and my cousins. I think I'm just gonna spend tonight with Gordon, maybe watch a movie, cuddle, cute stuff. This break is gonna be too long. I know I'm gonna miss him like crazy, and I'm gonna complain about it in my blog, but I need to get over it. Those are the downs of a long-distance college relationship, but I'm pretty sure we'll make it through a month lol. Anywho, I know no one likes reading about relationships. My last final was today (psychology). My professor gave us M&M's to help us do better. I think it worked?? My spanish professor gave us gum yesterday to help us do better, didn't work as well. But those were my two finals, I studied all day for both of them in Old Main Cafe (loved it) and Kauke (didn't quite love it). And then I walked to go get Chinese food (paid $20 for sucky food, probably not gonna get paid back). Wow, my english is doing horribly tonight. That really sucks because I have two papers to finish off tonight and tomorrow.

I really felt like singing out loud in Kauke today, but I couldn't since there were people studying. I'm tired, but I don't feel like sleeping, I think...

I never realized how hard it is to write an opinion paper on marriage. It really is no fun, but it got me back into a lovely play "The Importance of Being Earnest". I want to read it again. It's pretty hilarious. Oh, and the poster company for my LiveLavaLive didn't charge me three times, they dropped the other two, so it's all good :) My dry erase board is still annoying the crap outta me. I took it off the wall to put duct tape on the back, and a chunk of wall ripped out with it! It's dinky adhesive stuff, but it still ripped wall off. Grr, now I'll have to pay for it.

I have so much to write about, but I don't feel like putting it in here, since I never know who reads this. I'll write more later.

Katie- 1 Motivation-0

I have four papers due next Thursday. My motivation is absolute zero, though I did get one finished (it sucks but oh well). Finals week is coming up, I need to study like hell for my Spanish and Psychology exams. I realized I haven't blogged in too long, so I decided to do something more productive with my time :)

I had Thanksgiving break a week ago. It wasn't too bad, but I couldn't wait to get back to Wooster. It was funny because Gordon didn't get a shuttle ticket to the airport, so he got to go hang out with my Papa at my house so my dad could take him to the airport. I got a good laugh out of it. So what did I do over my break? Absolutely nothing. I went to the dentist. I went to my Uncles house for Thanksgiving, where I watched "I Love Lucy" of course, and then "Home Alone". Then, on Friday, I went to a cabin with my cousins, which was pretty cool. Not gonna complain.


But Sunday couldn't come any faster. We picked up Gordon and Paul at the airport, and Gordon couldn't stop hugging me. I was so smitten at that moment in time :) Anywho....we got back and watched Tomb Raider 2. Everyone left and I suddenly got nauseas and faint. Not cool. But yah.

I'm listening to more oldies tonight, but I also made a Christmas song playlist. I'm pumped to make puppy chow this weekend :) And Gordon is teaching Lindy Hop at swing this Friday. I really can't think of what else went on. If I remember, I'll be sure to let you know.

My dry erase board looks like it's about to fall off of my wall...it's annoying the bajeezus out of me. Oh! I ordered a LiveLavaLive poster online (they charged me three times! I need to fix it) I'm so excited :)
