So, I’m shutting down this journal. I don’t really use it or update it.

Ooooo...
Anberlin is playing a show in Clearwater on 12/4.

Fri, 04 Nov 2005 02:21:14 GMT

UH OH
Jarhead tomorrow... or this weekend? I may have to see it by myself.

Thu, 03 Nov 2005 02:09:16 GMT

I think my suspicions may be correct...

Sun, 30 Oct 2005 17:33:44 GMT

UH OH
3 more days until I get to see my Jakey in Jarhead.

So I had my own little personal Fear Factor this morning when eating my Mini Wheats, but what do I find? I dead little cockroach. Post cereals will be getting a letter from me.

Thu, 27 Oct 2005 00:55:12 GMT

Let me just explain my day.

Everything was fine... I wasn’t planning on going to the EIL awards, but everyone said I should go at least for a few minutes to check out everyone’s costumes. The one good thing about the EIL awards every quarter is free beer. So, I chugged a Carona and stayed.... until 4:30PM.

By the time I made it off UO property and onto I-4, it was 4:50PM. Traffic moved... for a mile, and then was backed the fuck up before you even got to Conroy. So, I decided to invoke my backup route, which is Conroy to OBT to 408. The ext ramp onto Conroy didn’t even move. So, my only option was to get off on Conroy, turn left, take Vineland to John Young and eventually to 408.

Vineland... didn’t move. It took me... 25 minutes to go... 1 mile. It was now 5:20. Exam in 40 minutes. John Young went fast... 408 didn’t. By the time I made it to the Lake Underhill toll plaza, it was already 5:40. It was at that point that I wanted to cry and was actually praying to get into an accident, so at least I’d have an excuse to miss the exam.

It was also at that point that I remembered that I didn’t bring my calculator... or a pencil. The exam was Scantron.

After the toll plaza, I flew down 408 until it dead ends into UCF/Research Park. Of course, on campus traffic was backed the fuck up too. I also had to pee like a mofo. By the time I parked, it was 5:58.

Walked quite briskly to CL1, took a piss, then started walking to the room. On my way there, I spotted a pencil on a bench... that worked. I was overjoyed. That solved the pencil problem.

Once in the room, I made it just in time for my teacher to be handing out the exams. I asked him if I could use my calculator on my cell phone, and he didn’t care. Score. The exam was pretty easy too.

I am now exhausted from my whirlwind tour of Orlando and the exam, but am quite happy with how things turned out.

Smiley face.

YAY NO WORK TOMORROW!

See, hurricanes can be good.

Sun, 23 Oct 2005 02:49:01 GMT

My neck hurts.

In other news, I got new glasses.

Sat, 22 Oct 2005 02:21:18 GMT

So I think maybe I’m being used....

Tue, 18 Oct 2005 20:46:02 GMT

So, I went to the eye doctor today since I haven’t been in like... 1.5 years. Plus my contacts are freakin’ annoying and I need new glasses.

Anyway... I have cataracts.

I feel like a 75 year old woman.

Tue, 18 Oct 2005 03:02:19 GMT

This is going to be a good week... I hope.

Today at work nothing much happened. It was boss’s day, so Nina, Kristin, and I took Greg out for lunch. Tomorrow I have an eye appointment at 3, so I’m leaving work around 2. Weeeeee short day. Well, maybe not. I might get there early to work on some stuff.

I need to get air in my tires. This little light on my instrument panel stays lit and dings every once in a while, which is getting annoying. I definitely need to get air before I drive to UCF for class Wednesday. Hm, maybe I’ll go tomorrow before my eye appointment.

Alright, time for bed.

Sun, 16 Oct 2005 02:23:57 GMT

I’m such a fatass.

Fri, 14 Oct 2005 22:32:23 GMT

Is it wrong that a small little part of me wants to see that movie Elizabethtown?

Thu, 13 Oct 2005 02:34:19 GMT

Since I haven’t updated this in a while, this should be a pretty lengthy post.

First off, since this is happening as I write, I hate getting random IMs from people. Actually, let me rephrase. I like getting random IMs because it keeps things interesting, but I hate getting random IMs from people who are like.. 15 and act like they’re much less. Case in point:

AIM IM with bamgurlxox.
10:18 PM
so........
yea?
i just said so
do you know who this is?
no
lacy
Ok...

Can someone explain to me what the hell is up with the weather lately? It’s worse than Ohio. It’s sunny, then raining, then sunny while it’s raining... Jesus. For once, I would just like to have my car clean and stay that way for more than 2 days. I dropped $10 on a car wash, spent last weekend detailing it and it fucking rains all week. On top of it all, I purposely checked the weather and they were like, “Oh, it’s going to be a great week with lots of sunshine!” Um, WTF.

Other things are going good. I have an eye doctor appointment next week so maybe I can get some better contacts than the pieces of crap I have now. I really need to get my hair cut, but I can’t get into there until next Friday. The semester is like... half gone; I can’t believe how fast time is going. I consistently feel like I’m missing out on something and that time is going by too quickly.

I still feel kind of lonely... I never have anything to do on the weekends and it’s getting kind of annoying. I’ve hung out with John for like... the past 2 or 3 weeks, which has been fun, but for some reason I think I’m becoming the annoying friend that you just want to get rid of. I don’t want to become a nuisance. Alana and I haven’t really hung out in a long time, which is kind of making me feel weird. We used to do everything together and we still do a lot, but for some reason I think we’re growing apart. I talked her into moving if Peter decides to move, and as much as I’d like to live either by myself or someone else, I will definitely miss our antics.

There’s more that I’d like to write about, but I don’t have all my thoughts together and I don’t want this to turn into a big bunch of jibber jabber, so I figure I’ll end it and pick up later.

Ok, my roomate’s away messages make me want to vomit:

“AGENDA: 1. Gym w/ Kim 2. Lunch @ Crispers 3. Pick up my man & watch some FOOTBALL!!! 4. Build a homecoming float 5. Chill out with my man again :) “
-11 Months and still going strong!!!

First of all, she never watched or cared about football until she started seeing this guy. Now she’s all about football. Second, “chill out with my man” should read, “Have sex multiple times in my room.” 11 months and still going strong? What are we, Energizer bunnies?

I really don’t care about her relationship because it’s never going to last. What I do care about is how she spontaneously changes her likes and dislikes depending on his. I’m sorry, if you have to change yourself to adapt to someone else, then the other person obviously doesn’t care who you are. I also care because their relationship is soely based on sex. That’s all they do here. And I know that they can’t have anything substantial outside of that because they never really go anywhere. Sure, they’ll go bowling or something every great while, but I’m not sure what kind of lifetime bond you’re forming while at a bowling alley.

When this relationship ends, it’s going to be really hard for me not to say, “I told you so.”

Sat, 08 Oct 2005 21:42:36 GMT

What should I do tonight? I am bored.

Wed, 05 Oct 2005 23:44:20 GMT

Holy shit.
The hottest guy is in my Real Estate class. He’s your typical fraternity guy, but he made me want to drool.

Drugs I took today:
Ibuprofin
Sudafed

I think the combination made me really tired. I still have to work on a team assignment that’d due tomorrow, minus the team. Ugh.

Wed, 28 Sep 2005 00:52:07 GMT

So I officially haven’t had sex in 2 years.

Mon, 26 Sep 2005 01:03:51 GMT

The question is...
Should I blow off class on Wednesday to go to the HHN preview?

So it looks as though I will not be leaving my apartment all weekend.

Sat, 24 Sep 2005 20:14:34 GMT

I want to go see the Corpse Bride.

Sun, 18 Sep 2005 04:35:20 GMT

Alana and I were just talking about stuff...

We were talking about how we don’t really know what’s going on with our lives right now...

Is time moving too fast or too slow? I was thinking that I don’t really know what I’m doing or where I want to be. I feel like I’m rushing towards something, but what that something is, I don’t know. I just feel like I’m moving too slow and not making enough progress. As Mom put it, however, “Why are you in such a hurry to grow up?”

Mom asked me if I was going to stay in Orlando forever. The truth is that I don’t know. I like the job I’m at now and I’d like to stay there, but I really don’t know if I want to stay here. In fact, I don’t know if I could stay anywhere. I don’t feel like I have a home anymore or if I could make a home somewhere. I have this overwhelming sense of being in limbo.

Is this an alternate dimension? I feel like I created some kind of change in reality somehow. Like, if I didn’t move to Florida, would things have been “normal” still? Would Mom have sold the house? Would Grandma and Grandpa moved?

I feel restless. I don’t know where my life is going. Or where I’m going with life. As of right now, it’s on a day-to-day basis.

I decided I don’t like Vanilla Coke.
