LiVin On A pRaYeR!
OoOoH...I have had a very very fun few days. On Sunday night I went to a Bon Jovi concert with Meredith! It was awesome! Soooo much fun.

Yesterday was fun too. I went to the track. My dad won his first race at Saratoga for the summer. It was so funny. Toward the end of the race, it started like torential downpouring! So we had to go to the winners circle to take the picture and we were all soaked. UGH that picture is gonna be disgusting haha.

Last night I got a major burst of homesickness. I started like aching for my friends. Thank God tomorrow Elise is coming to stay for a couple days. She'll keep me in line. And I'll get to see everyone who is home this weekend. And...Joanna is coming home from camp in ONE WEEK. ONE WEEK I get to see her. It's only for 1 day (i leave for miami on wednesday the 13th) but its something. I cannot wait.

Today I saw Seabiscuit. It was a great movie. If I didn't know anything about horse-racing, I would have been like "jigga wha?" but since I knew what was going on it was a lot more enjoyable to me.

I'm having a lot of fun here. There is so much to do. But I don't know. I want to go home--at least sometimes I do. I don't know. I'm so confused overall. It sucks. ((sigh)) only a few more days. UGH then next wed. I go to Miami ahhhhh. It's too much...I want to stay home. Im always away ahhh.

Today is the 41 anniversary of the death of Miss GlamourPuss...Freaky Deaky.

I need my friends uhhhhhhhhh...tomorrow....tomorrow...always a day away. Love*
~Just*Gabi~
(thats the name of one of my pop's horses... im not trying to be like all metaphorical)

AHHH I just remembered Last Comic Standing and Queer Eye for the Straight Guy are on tonite....see i already feel betters its all about the attitude...

Hey well today was the first day of dance camp. Except for the fact that it was really hot, and I totally wasn't prepared clothes-wise it was not bad at all. I'm hanging with some cool people and some of the routines are fun. So yea, not a bad day. I'm def. one of the worst, but its all good..Well i'm gonna have it all week so, i guess thinking positively is good..toodles

sigh.. its been a while. im so tired.
not sure.. but i think it was wed or thurs .. first real day in boston.. we went into Cambridge and did info sessions and tours at MIT and Harvard. went out to dinner in boston. Next day we went to Tufts university and just did an info session, then drove out to Ny and went to the Rensellear (sp) info session and tour... and then drove out to Ithica.. and got a hotel and my brother's godparents' daughter Isabelle who is in med school came over and hung out with us.. then the next morning we went out to breakfast with her (that was saturday ) and showed us around syracuse.. then we drove out to cornell and did info session and tour.. and thennnn drove all the way out to niagara. this is where it gets interesting. we got out there at around 5-ish and my dad was asking what we wanted to do until it got dark out cuz they do light shows on the falls. i suggested that we go eat and get a hotel. he agreed. but instead he parked and took us to the american falls and went into the cave of the winds... and then crossed over to the canadian side to look for hotels ( by this time it was 9 ) and apparently we chose to get there on a national holiday for them, and we tried about 30 hotels, and they were all fucking booked.. so of course theres this one run down motel that we just stopped in out of curiosity cuz they had a vacancy sign out.. and they had one room left... and they wanted 200 fucking dollars on the piece of shit.. but since we hadnt found anything my dad took it.. and we drove back out to the falls and watched like 20 minutes of the light show.. got some food.. got back to the craphole once we actually found it cuz we forgot what it was even called lol, it was filled with japanese people that wouldnt shut up.. and dad was really loud this morning and woke us up.. and we went under the candadian falls but the waits were so long me and michael didnt even feel like goin on the boat anymore.. so we didnt.. i dont see the big fuss over niagara. i mean, its pretty and all, but people sit there and watch it for like a good half hour at least, i mean , its water pouring over a cliff. its not gonna do a trick if you keep watching it. i think its way oversold. w/e. so then we drove on out to pittsburgh, after sitting through like 4 traffic jams during which i FINISHED my daybook.. lol.. where we are now, and got a hotel nice and early.. and.. just been hanging out here. on tomorrows agenda its info session and tour of carnegie mellon, and possible PennState. then were supposed to drive out to Georgia, and Tuesday i think were going to Georgia Tech, and then heading back on down to FL. i think that should mean we'd be back Tues. night, but they claim we wont be back tilll Wed. night. we'll see. anywho im gonna go to bed.. love and miss you all <3

Im in my pjs. I dont feel glamorous at all. But it's all about imagination.

As you can see I've changed my user picture from Miami to the gorgeous Marilyn Monroe. I find her so incredibly fascinating. She was so glamorous and beautiful. (and she was married to a Yankee hehehe) I think she is the epitome of old style sexy Hollywood glamour...I love that Audrey, Marilyn look. It's so...........i can't think of any other word, but glamorous. I would do anything to go back in time and be Marilyn Monroe for a day. OK...that's just me ranting. Im gonna start doing that more often. No one cares what Im doing during the day...I have many opinions which could be a good topic of convo.

Leave some comments if you have any thoughts on Ms. GlamourPuss Monroe...

Ladies...hands up...lemme see you shake your stuff
Hey everyone...thanks for the support. I'll be in NY... thurs (tmrw) through sunday. I'm okay, I've only been sad a couple of times today. It just kind of..bad timing...not that death ever has good timing. I'm mad about having to miss the first couple days of dance camp where they're learning routines and stuff. I hope I will be able to learn them later. This wknd's probably gonna be majorly depressing :/ Funeral..and paying respects sitting in the house when people come over with food and stuff...

Alrighty, my day. Well after waking up to that news I went to school and got my Eaglettes uniforms and stuff. I was talking to some eaglettes and that was nice. After that I went to the physics room and found katherine and bryan <3 We then went to lunch and saw celini and sam. I had a fun time with every1...i was hyper! After lunch my mom picked me up and we went to dance depot to pick up my dance shoesies. Then I came back home and have been watching tv, talking to bryan (a lot!), and katherine a bit.

Worried about the kazaa situation...does anyone have any REAL evidence of prosecution occurring? Not just rumors? And people are telling me conflicting things and...argh!

Also has anyone heard of the show "Degrassi" on the noggin channel? I swear it is like my fav show. If anyone watches it tell me! If you don't try it from 8-9 on (my channel) 148...u don't get it with just plain cable..sry

See i'm doing okay...i'll have a bad wknd but..thats life...love you all

:: Mood: listless

WTF does listless mean? I like to pick very strange moods for myself...

Today my dad's old college roomate and his 4 kids met me and my dad at the track. It was fun. They are so nice. They have a 5 year old girl. 12 year old twin boys (who have major hotty potential lol) and a 16 (i think) year old boy. I've always thought he was really hot. He still is really hot...and he's nice...and not a womanizer/pothead. He doesn't look like a junior though. He looks our age. But thats okay beacuse I look younger than I am too. UGH I wish they lived closer or we saw them more. Why dont we have more guys like him in our grade/school??? Why? Why? I know all you girls feel my pain.

Me and my dad just went to the harness track. Hahaha its hilarious. Its really nice at night and stuff...but its not as exhilirating/big/popular/normal as the regular track...There are really seedy people there. Its so scary. The race purses are like only $700 haha. It's still beautiful though. (Harness is like the jockeys who sit in the little carts and the horses are way smaller)

It really pisses me off that my summer is going so well. My summers usually suck. Now I just so CAN wait to go back to school. Im totally dreading it. Soccer is gonna suck. But im glad im playing b.c. a lot of my gal pals are playing...Id miss out on a lot. But that still doesnt take away from the fact that it sucks.

And it gets closer each day......
I just have to live for the moment...focus on each day.

Watching Selena
Waiting for the Yankee game

Hope everyone is having a great vacation!

heyyy today was fun! First I met up with Dan at the bus stop...his hair is so long! We have the same cell fone which is funny. Then came along rich and rach..rich's hair is long too and those sideburns..hehe...(razor anyone?!) We then went to Taisho, a sushi place in Mission Bay. It was yummmy and just fun to hang out with everyone. On the ride home rach and I went into dan's house and it was cool...big!

Then I was hanging out and sam and katherine called to say they were coming over. yay! They came and we just hung out, looked at pics, watched "Stacy's Mom," lol fun fun. I got to see katherinnee finally :)

I was just watching Behind the Movie: American Pie. I love the american pies, but honestly how do these people star in these movies? It must be so embarassing to have liek, sex scenes with people you're not with. But oh well...they are getting paid quite nice sums so..thats just the thought of the day!

p.s....why is it that i can never make comment on others friends-only entries...plz tell me if u know, i mean i am logged in, and am obv their friend cuz HELLO, i read the entry!
