i got my first professional suit attire today for my presentation i'm giving in april.

i would feel more grown-up except for the fact that my mom bought it. at least i got some cool shoes out of the deal.

and what's with all the ill-fitting suits at most stores? horrible.

a visit with the g-parents

grandma: well, if you want my opinion, you don't need a guy. If a guy offers you a ring, you tell them that your grandma said no.

grandpa: unless he's a millionaire.

grandma: no, she'll be making millions anyways.

a-lister?

so i've kind of been playing the part of movie star the past couple of months and i'm having a lot of fun with it. you can check out the script and pictures here:

an afternoon off

i feel guilty, but they made me stay back this afternoon. it is kind of relaxing though...i'm listening to really great classical music and surfing the internet on brynn's computer, all snuggled up on her airmatress with her fleece over me, trying to regain warmth. soon i'm gonna go take a nice long shower. and then nap i think...but i'm sure they will be back by about that time. i'm hoping i feel more up to 100 percent by then.

we played a made game of catch phrase last night...well they did, i joined for a little. they had to remind themselves to keep it down for most of the game. didn't want to wake the neighbors up.

today: snow...and coldness. which is why they wanted me to stay back. but cabinets (expensive ones...we had to be careful) and vanity's and mirrors and expensive drapes and toilets and all sorts of stuff we're scrounged up from around the demolition house for h4h to resell.

tonight: bowling...i think.

tomorrow: looks like a new house, getting ready for dedication. pretty sure we're almost done with demolition on the rich house we've been slaving at for the last 2 days.

friday: half day work...and then the long trip home.

i'm sick in new jersey. and i want to have fun. this sucks.

that and i wanted to post images on here for you guys to see of our days here so far...and it wasn't working.

ugh.

go phila!

i'm loving new jersey and philadelphia. today we had off so we got lost trying to find our site and then headed to phily. we also got our gas pumped for us as in jersey, it's unlawful to pump your own gas. (me: "ma'm...I can pump my own gas." her: "you wanna do what?" with a little jersey accent. "where you from?" haha). then we took one of the biggest bridges ever over the river and saw where the constitution was signed, quincy was sworn in as president and other significant sites including the liberty bell. we also ate hard rock cafe and had all sorts of laughs. it was fun...and now i'm tired. and my brother is going to braid ann's hair...ann...beware!

in other news...i haven't remembered a dream since i was little. ever since this trip has began i've remembered two dreams. one of them involved me forgiving that guy and i was just happy again. i'm not sure what all of this means. i'm not sure what i want it to mean. i'm not sure if i believe in dreams! i guess i'll just have to wait patiently for april...and before all this chaos began i convinced myself that april wasn't that far off.

much needed spring breaks starts right about...now! all homework done (well...for the most part...), bags almost packed and i haven't slept since i woke up at 7 this morning. it's 4 am right now. 2 vans, 14 passangers and a crap load of luggage and food.

jersey here we come!

(see you in a week)

torn to pieces

i waited a long time before i trusted him with my heart. december was wonderful...and then he left for st. cloud, turned into a different person, cheated on me and took my heart and smashed it into a million little pieces.

and the worst part? some "friends" knew about it and let it drag on for longer than it needed to.

i just want him to know how much it hurts and i hope that he hurts too...and that life will not be pretty for him when he gets back to btown...too many people care about me to not do something. where's chris when i need him? get your shotgun!

and now i'm done. done crying...i don't want to talk about it anymore.

and thanks for true friends who dragged me out of the house last night. it was much better than wollowing on my bed, cell phone in hand, not knowing what to do.

i lied...i feel like crying again...and i will again when i remember all the good times we had in december.

why are guys such idiots?! i'm playing sad wollowing songs on my ipod...chariot give me your strength. grrr...i just want the friendship back...and things to be back to normal. bring on spring break.

this would make anyone's day brighter.






i needed that.

i've never known what it's like to put trust in someone and then have them rip it all away in a matter of a few hours.

guess what? it hurts.

i think i've checked almost every site on the web...i'm sure i'm pretty close anyway.

and now i'm ready to start animating my glasses again. and keep my music up loud...the old dude on the computer in front of me is making funny noises...and if i look up or take my eyes off my computer...he tries to make conversation. gotta keep my eyes on the computer!

back to icky homework.
