YAY Its starting to get cooler, I love 70 degree weather, its my favorite. *huggles 75* Though thats not what it is now I hope it will be soon. Well lets see. I am 22 now. YAY!!!! and back at school...YAY Its the third week of school. So far classes rock my socks. And not in a bad way. I love using umber and sienna, just to tell you guys on a beige.....its pretty. But nothing is going on right now, but a lecture I am suposed to be listening to but I am really just loking into the fonts I am going to use on it. We are supposed to mix two different fonts and letters into one. A logo sort of. Bad explination but thats okay.

I really like that quote. ^_^ Thank you Missy. I worked 10 hours today. woot!!! One job for 3.5 at $10 and the other 7 with lunch for $7.50. YAY monies!!! Hopefully I will have enough to keep me through out the year. *crosses fingers* Oh I have to buy a few gifts. I know I know, its almost my birthday and I am buying others gifts. *glares at people* I like to do it and poo on you. But I have a cool DVD for Marc so far and one for Danni. Hopefully they will be around for me to give them to them. But I also have to go pick up a gift for my friend Missy, she leaves in two/three days. *sniffles* But I know what I want to get her, its for moments at school. I was supposed to get her it for her birthday but someone drank it. >.< Oh well. But enough of the gifts I still have to plan out some of them. Well my feet hurt so I am going to go lay down and read. *waves* bye bye

Wow its almost time for school again. I miss all of you back at school and the stuff to do. I just can't believe that its time already. Each day seems to go by so slowly but when I look at it the days are passing by quickly. I will miss you all at home to.

Hmm...I wonder what to do. I am either going to do dishes or laundry. I think I will stick with the laundry.

Hmm.....Oh I am actually working yaya. So i will have some money in my account. *claps* Yay!!!

From the 16th-25th I was in Galena. It was a lot of fun, I went up for Raleigh's birthday, he turned 21. I gave him the Vampire: The Requiem role playing book and Incense. Raleigh and I played Scrabble again and I won!!! Yippee!!! We also played Taboo, which was a lot of fun! To that game I say baguettes. For dinner one night Raleigh and I made spaghetti that was really good. And for the last few nights we had ben and jerry's almost every night. It was awesome. There is a lot of fun things that I did on this trip but I am going to have to just tell you in person. ^_^

From Thursday to Monday I was in Galena visiting Raleigh. I stayed with him and his family, who were very nice. When I first got to Galena it was storming but his mom drove Raleigh and I around to see a few things before we picked up ice cream from Walmart. At night parts of it looked like Silent Hill with old brick buildings and with no lights and no occupants. When I got there we watched tv and talked until we ended up falling asleep. He has two cute Beagle puppies, Copper and Duncan. Copper is a little lady and is behaved, Duncan on the other hand is wild and barks a lot. They are both very cute. I was able to also meet Raleigh's three sisters, they were very nice to me. ^_^ On Friday, Raleigh took me around Galena, showing me all the different shops. We went to visit the one that his sister works at. They were also nice and shown me around the store. Nani, one of the owners after we started heading up to the second floor, said that I was very good looking to Raleigh's sister. I started to laugh to myself. Raleigh heard to and hugged me. It was sweet. But after we went there we went to Durty Gurts. I know I spelled dirty wrong but thats the name of the restaurant. Its a burger place. And really good. They had amazing chocolate shakes. We ended up watching the Fountain while eating dinner, which his mom made spaghetti mmmmmmmmmm......, the move was okay, I liked it but will not watch it again, to out of body. On Saturday we lounged about until the afternoon when we went to Dabuque, Iowa (I think thats how it is spelled). Raleigh took me to his high school and then to a small comic book shop. We looked at a ton of gaming books. After that we went to the mall and I met his friend Scott, who was nice. Then off to the movies, where we saw 1408 and then Cold Stone. ^_^ We went to the river and walked along side of it, I got to see baby ducks. I wanted to hug them. It was a very beautiful view, even with the disgusting water of the Mississippi. Back at his house, his mom made bratwurst, sauerbraten, spatzle, and red cabbage. ^_^ It was all very good. And watched Pan's Labyrinth.

I have to get going though. So I will be back. ^_^ I can tell you guys about the rest of my trip... *runs off*

How is everyone doing out there? I am doing great, except for the blank space on the other side o f me but that will be fixed soon. Hopefully. So well back to whats going on.... I am running around tomorrow I go to help Jaz. Which will be fun. ^_^ I can't wait to see her. But right now I am about to go play a game with Missy. Not sure which game yet but it will be fun. Talk to you guys later.

It rained this morning which was nice. I like the rain.
Not much has been going on. I am still waiting for word back on my applications, but no luck as of yet. I am sick which sucks...it might be mono. Fun Fun. I just can't get normal illnesses like colds and stuff what the heck.
Things are quiet right now. Its nice, sadly this won't stay this way for long, my brother is going to be home from school starting wednesday and then i have to share the house with him. *shrugs* not to much of a problem. Other then that hmmmm... I am trying to get an electronic tuner for my cello and some duet music for next year. Suda still wants me to play with a million people. Which I don't mind thats a good thing, soon I will play in the orchestra.
YAY!!!!
Well I have to go...bye all.

Well I am back at home...not much to say otherwise. I stayed for graduation which was nice. I really liked being able to say my last good byes to some people. Others I am glad to see go. *coughLindsayGregcough* <.< >.> <.< But grades are coming out and the grades from mid-terms came back up. YAY!! So far I only have to grades back but they are a c and a b. I know I am getting an A- or B+ in my Design class. This semester just stunk, so I know the rest will be better. ^_^

Raleigh is coming over Sunday to stay for a few days, which is going to be awesome. I am also invited to his birthday party that his sister is throwing for him. But thats in a few months. The house is cleaner then I thought so I don't have to much to do in that area. Luckily. YAY!!!

Well finals are over. Which makes me extrememly happy. There are only two grades up so far for my classes but thats okay. I have a B in Bio and C in Theories of Counseling. YAY!!! My two worst finals and they both helped me. ^_^ I am thinking a B+ in Design because of two projects beings C's and one an F, a B+ in Cello and a B in World Drama (my A tests can't fight against the thesis paper being a C+ T.T), That would be actually really good if I only had one c and the rest b's. That would make my day. I haven't had a report card with one or no c's in a long time...or at least I don't think I have. *shrugs*

Raleigh left me some music to listen to and so far a lot of it is really cool. I am liking it. I am addicted to one song though, there is something about it. Lucy and I both agree, because most men listen to this song and think meh its just a song, but when we hear it (we being females) there is something about it that is odd. But its a really cool song. I also found one of my favorite songs, The Highwayman. Which is also one of the only pieces of old American literature that I like.

blue blue caravan, winding down to the valley of lights. my true love is a man who would hold me for ten thousand nights. in the wild wild wailing of wind, he's a house 'neath a soft yellow moon. so blue blue caravan, won't you carry me down to him soon.

blue blue caravan, won't you drive away all of these tears. for my true love is a man that I haven't seen in years. he said "go where you have to, for I belong to you until my dying day." so like a fool, blue caravan, I believed him and I walked away.

oh my blue blue caravan, the highway is my great wall. for my true love is a man who never existed at all. oh he was a beautiful fiction I invented to keep out the cold. but now, my blue blue caravan, I can feel my heart growing old.
