Ok man. Sorry it has been one million years. It's just that when I think about writing in the LJ I always imagine it to be such a pain in my ass. It's really not, but whatev. *

So this summer has been going pretty swell. It is going by so quickly. I haven't had any time to grab onto it and realize what is going on around me. So far this summer I have been hanging out with my bestest friends and making money. I would say it has been a success so far. To sum up the summer thus far it goes a bit like this: smoke a lot of grass, listen to a lot of coldplay. Sounds like school, but it is warmer and I am with different people. Oh, and I have to hide from my parents. bummer man. That is the strangest part of coming home. The rules. Not that my parents are strict, but the rules of life. For instance, in school there aren't really many rules of life. You do what you will and people stay out of your way. At home there is the constant threat of the Big House and the disapproving padres. Way uncool. *

I am working at Ruby Tuesday again this summer and it is good times. I have been hanging out with some of the old crowd from last summer and meeting a bunch of new, awesome people. I look forward to going to work and seeing what type of people I will serve that day and what shit will go wrong. Always something new. Or old shit with a new twist. *

Today I spent the day downtown with my dad. We watched as many iMax movies as possible at the Aerospace Museum, walked around Dupont Circle and went to dinner. It was my birthday present to him. It was good times. I love hanging out with my dad. We are a lot a like in the way we think/act so it is good to talk with him. We are always on the same wave length. *

This weekend should be real fun. Friday I work until close, but after that is Paul's birthday party that hpefully I will make it to, as long as Morgan can stay up long enough for me to get off work, and after I get off I can stay awake. And then on Saturday I hear Jenny Jen is having a par-tay? Reunion with all my loves perhaps? It has been forever and a day since I have seen Jen, Emmie, Linsey, Val (minus those 5 minutes I saw you at my house), etc. Jen, don't feel bad for living in Texas, somehow it happens that I see you just as often as the others previously listed. :-( OoO and then on Sunday Will and I are going to have a "Pool Party Extravaganza Bananza" We planned it today and it should be a great time. Sunday around 5pm at Will's house. *

I love movies. Tonight I watched Fried Green Tomatos. Still has to be my all-time favorite movie. I cried like an eff'n baby. What good movies are coming out soon? I will have to check that out. I am going to see Batman Begins this upcoming Sunday. Fantastic 4 looks entertaining. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory will be good. there is no question to that. Alright time to go to sleep so I will not be tired tomorrow morning. But I guess that is inevitable.

Took this from Maryanna:

1. Reply with your name and I will write something I like about you.
2. I will then tell what song reminds me of you.
3. If I were to apply an o'clock to you, I'll tell you what it would be.
4. I will try to name a single word that best describes you.
5. I'll tell you the most memorable moment I've had with you.
6. I will tell you what color you remind me of.
7. I'll then tell you something that I've always wondered about you.
8. Put this in your journal.

Moonlight enlighten my way at twilight
from the heights of my roof I send praise then poof
I'm looking up at the night
and ask for help to get up and get up and get up and get up and get it right

:'-(

So my first class, psych was cancelled today because the teacher couldn't make it through the snow. We all got so excited last night because it was raining. And rain meant the end of snow. But no. The Tundra is still alive. But at least it is snowing hard and steady today. I don't like the days that it snows on and off, sometimes it is large snow, sometimes not. Like yesterday I swear it was hailing for five minutes. But yeah -- at least its not that cold. Only 15 degrees or so. Which I would have thought is horribly cold, but seriously...once you hit the negative 20s nothing is that cold anymore. Once your snot freezes in your nose as soon as you walk outside. But I thought it was fun. The least fun part is that in weather like today my eyes water and my nose constantly drips, but I play this game with myself to make it more bearable. I see how far my snot can go before I suck it back up. HAHA. You might think its weird, but when I told people here about it, I found a lot of other people did the same thing. You just get SO annoyed with ALWAYS have a runny nose when you walk outside and so after a while you have to give up sniffing for a bit. haha. Anyway........

SO life is good. My room is a disaster and I feel totally unorganized and I think I am annoying the shit out of roomie Laura, but oh well. Life happens. Ya dig? Um, this weekend Finding Neverland is playing at the CC Theater (our campus theater) so I really wanna go see that movie again. I <3 it. a lot. This weekend is also 80s weekend. what what. I probabaly won't make it to any of the events...because well...i never do. It always happens that the times when the university has stuff i AM interested in doing, I find other plans. Oh well.

So next year I am going to live in the piphi house. We will see how that goes. I pretty much made the final decision after I looked at the money and saw how much cheaper it was. About $1000 less. And that is a shit load of money. It was hard telling Laura because we planned on being roommates next year, but what could I do? The only reason I wouldn't have lived in the house would be because of her. But at least we are on the same level because neither of us know who we will room with next year. Although, she was talking about getting a single. Blah.

I have so much shit to do before spring break (next friday). It is at the point where I feel so overwhelmed that I just decide to do nothing. You know? Like, you have so much to do that you don't know where to start and then just don't do anything.

OO So On Saturday I watched an Awesome movie I had never seen before: ( They've got their degrees all rolled up... )

current mood: complacent

Flangel left us today. It was/is super sad. Flangel, Barbie's boyfriend [yet so much more], had to go back to CT to do some community service. It was horrible. Like a dark cloud rained over the suite. What are we going to do without him? He was the man of the 'house' (suite). But its okay...its only three weeks. We will just all have to give Barbarella extra care and loving and take her to subway and cuddle with her, and pretend like we are playing Halo. haha.

So that was today. Now I really need to do some homework, but I thought first I would entry it up.

Hmm...life? I always feel so incredibly boring on lj, it forces me to reflect upon my repetitious life. Oh well....this weekend was good. It was a three day weekend so there was no school yesterday. On Friday I went out with some PiPhi's to a frat and got extremely intoxicated. I seriously do not believe I have ever stumbled that much in my life. It was awesome. On Saturday I went dtbtvt [downtown burlington vermont] and bought some candles to make my room smell better. Dorms serisouly smell like shit, you have to work to get them to smell nice. At least mine. ha. ;-) So that night I went to one of the piphi's houses and we watched What a Girl Wants because she was home alone and bored. THEN came back to the dorm and drank some, but it wasnt that exciting because Kate was having a bad trip and we all had to take care of her every need. So then on Sunday, not much happened. Just hung around, Flangel and Barbs brought a couch from his apartment and so we broke it in by having a romantic suite dinner. it was hot. We made pasta and lit candles. Then Laura, Cath and I got 4 bottles of wine and played card games. The highlight was Kings with Laura, Cath, Barbs, Flangel, Erika, and Noah. Everyone got so intoxicated and giddy. It was fun fun. Laura had the hiccups which was funny. It was like a cartoon.

But yeaaaa...and then yesterday I did some homework and such. At night there was COB initiation for the 3 remaining rushees so we had a pledge class meeting and learned some stuff. It was fun, and I can see our class all getting along really well. But yea.

I really should start to work since tonight is the only night I dont have to be somewhere. Tomorrow, I have to leave at 5:30 for the nursing home and right after a pledge meeting, so I wont be home until 10. On Thursday there is a Social Tea with SigEp and I have to leave at 8 and before that I have to study for 2 tests I have on Friday and I have a 5 pg pape due Monday for econ on 3 readings I have yet to do. Ha....ok with that said, I am gonna split. Love and such.

current mood: indescribable

omg...is it wrong for me to be sexually attracted to my blue bobble head mood? I love the nerds. B-)

Anywho. So I will update with my life. If you are Janet's LJ friend then this will probably sound familiar. So you can skip over it if you must....but....For the past week I have been rushing to this sorority Pi Beta Phi and last night I recieved a bid, so I am not pledging to it and am super excited. Yea. I suppose I will tell you what has happened so far: ok well we really havent done anything yet--we only had 4 rush events and one got cancelled because of snow. so the first one we just made valentine cookies to give the kids at the ronald mcdonald house and chatted, got to know one another........Then the next night was "mock-tinis" which was just more people getting to know you while drinking punch.....And then the last one was yesterday which was a tour of the house, talking about dues, eat cake and were told about the different aspects of the sorority life they live. So after that, last night they gave bids out. Yep. Unlike UVA though, it was informal rush, as you can see, everything was very laid back and you didn't have to go to all the houses. And even if you did, there are only 4 houses, oppsed to the 20 something at UVA [damn]. So yea. That is that. I am really excited. The girls that I met were all really diverse-- a good variety of people. I'm not gonna lie...one of the things that made me really happy was that I met a sister who loves Battle Royale (!). haha. I love finding people who know about that movie/book.  So anyway....so far all the events have just been us talking to one another and getting to know people. Tonight there is a continuous open bidding event, so we will have to go to that and then following is a dinner. SO yeaa. Cathie is actually doing pi phi too. ha. Like Janet said: we are like siamese twins. I think it is funny. We were separated for over four years, and now if we dont see eachother for a day we totally freak out. I love my cousinnnnn. ha.

Yeah. That is what is new with me. I'm not gonna lie. I was terrified of telling the 703 <3s in fear of you guys a) laughing at me or b) judging me. Which is harsh, I know...but you never know. My suitemate Barbie keeps giving me shit about it, which sucks but I just tell her to shut it. I've always wanted to do this, so now I am and I am really excited to see what is in store for me. I am also just really excited about being extra involved in the school.

SO now I have joined my fellow Caroline, Coury, Janet, Morgan, Val, [Julia?], Rachel.

Besides that, life is good. I have a pscyh test tomorrow and I am not excited for it. That class is such torture. Mostly because the teachers are horrible.

I went to a study abroad information session today and I am really excited to do that. I have no idea where I want to go yet and you know how I feel about decisions. I abhor them. I do know that wherever I go has to have a year long program though. I def want to leave for 2 semesters after talking to people who have gone away.

Oh yea, Happy VDday. hah hah. Soon enough people should be recieving some abby love....if you know what I mean. *wink wink*

Alright. Segall out.

current mood: geeky

( Why does my 'bored' emotion cry?? I dont think that makes sense....i dont cry when i am bored.... )

If you did not watch it then read it....or skim it...or look at what others wrote about it....but don't be uninformed. that is all i ask. thanX

current mood: scared

I love it when I don't listen to a CD for a while and then I rediscover it. I love it love it love it. I rediscovered Avril's Under My Skin. I know there are a ton of Avril haters out there but I don't give a shit. I love this cd. It reminds me of summer because I listened to it everyday in my car [thanks to Morgan and Val when we listened to it on our mission to find Ruby Tuesday...even if they dont remember I do because it was the first time I listened to that CD]. But yea.

What else?

wow...well my power just went off so I dont want to waste the battery in the computer so im out. see ya

current mood: good

OKay! So I just wrote this long entry and it was kind of negative so I decided to start over. I was being a negative nelly because I am afraid of becoming depressed this semester [due to weather-being moody-etc] but then I slapped myself out of it and realized this is only the beginning to the semester and the clubs I am involved in have yet to begin.

I have so much time on my hands and so I do homework-go to the gym-watch tv-and on weekends drink and such. Not much else. But it will change soon enough. I just wish I had a car here so badly. I will next semester - but for now I just feel trapped. Its too snowy/cold to walk too far and the bus system is never reliable. There are people here with cars- but if they dont want to go anywhere then we are screwed. I just cant wait to get a car and go to the movies if I feel like or go out to eat or shopping or Get a Job!. You know. the shit that I cant do trapped in my room. But I guess I will save a lot of money with no car. But I also really want to get a job at one of the resturaunts here. I was thinking Applebees or TGIFridays.

I decided after winter break that I love working at Ruby Tuesday/the chain restaurant industry. It was so much fun working there this break and I cant wait to go back and I cant wait to get another job! Woo but yea.

I am excited about spring break. Kate, Jenn, Cath, and possibly Peter/Laura? and I are going to fly down to DC...have the sis or dad pick us up, spend the night or whatev at home and then make our way down to Myrtle Beach to stay at Kate's aunts place and camp out on the beach. We realize it will not be the warmest-but after this winter we realize we wont care and it will almost be April-that is good enough for us as long as we get out of Vermont. ha.

I dont know what else. I watched Buffy today. It was awesome. "The Body" was on this morning at 8 so I watched part of that before class and then when I got back "Intervention" was on with the Buffybot. I love that one. Spike loves Buffy. Ha. Wooo, anywho.

I suppose I should get back to homework.

And if she ever reads this then: Happy Birthday Maggie :-P

current mood: cold

Hey hey. Ok. So right now I am in a music frenzy. This guy across the hall just put his music up on iTunes and he has 6500 songs....it is heaven. In the cut are some of the songs I am jammin' to. :-) I lovezz jammin.

Last night I had a dream about a boy....

a boy who I was obsessed with and would have kissed the ground he walked on. I would have lost my virginity to him in a second. I would obey his every wish just so he would not leave me. None of this was love, it was all lust and I hated him for it. I hated that I thought he was the hottest boy I ever saw and I hated that he made me feel so special. I hate that I dreamt about him last night because I haven't thought about him in months. I wish I never had that dream last night because he came back to life in my mind. All I have to say is please don't let me dream about him again. He is poison.

But on another note...this made me happy today:

sweetcaroline597: I LOVE YOU!

ok I am an updating fool. maybe I will update tomorrow too? only if you are lucky.

current mood: frustrated

Tonight I back in time. An unhappy time where I was a moody bitch. I don't know what happened. I just went crazy and started to cry. I don't know why. I really think it was hormones and it sucks that they can control me like that. Maggie heard it for a second until she made me read her essay. I dont know what happened. I think it may have been because I had this lonely feeling that I hated. I don't know. I can't explain it. I just felt...alone. ANd I am pissed off because where the fuck is Sarah Bizer? I understand that swimming and her new boyfriend are important to her, but wtf? seriously. I could pretend that things between us are ok, but we havent talked in who knows how long and I dont know. I just think I need Cathie, like really really really bad. I have been too spoiled to get to see her so much and now a month apart is torture. For some reason Cathie can make me feel better no matter what. Even when there is no reason for my ewwie feelings [i.e. tonight].

Anywho. I have not updated in a while and I am effing bored out of my mind tonight. I will be here until Sunday, so if you want to hang out PLEASE call. I am so open it is amazing.

I feel like there should be more in here. Let me think....I miss all my suities. I have had a good time in Virginia for winter break. Got to see all my loves and earn some money :-) But now I am getting bored. I don't know. I think I am only bored because I know I have to go back to school and start working again, so I realize what I will be doing compared to now. Does this make sense? If if doesnt than oh well. I'm sure you dont care anyway. Oh no, I was just about to go off into a "no body cares blah blah" tantrum, but I stopped myself....be thankful.

I really want American Idol to start already. I'm getting impatient.

I am in such a horrible mood right now. I better stop writing until I have something pretty to say :-)
