i dont want to hold you anymore...
it was just so strange to see him, and to know he was there looking for me..

its like, i still find him attractive, and i still enjoy his personality...but its nothing like the longing i had before. maybe its true that you want what you cant have....only right now i want what i have and only what i have, who i have...

my brain flips back over the memories that i had with him, and i feel like they were with someone totally different...he's not the guy that i liked...i look at his face, and i never kissed him, even though my brain knows that its a thousand times a lie.

and i wonder if he dressed up to impress me. i could tell he was trying to make me jealous. but i really dont think it worked. i really didnt think i'd be secure enough to handle it like this. i was afraid i would fall.

And every time she sneezes, I believe it's love, and...oh lord...I'm not ready for this sort of thing...
so I wonder, how much of this is getting what I wanted?

Its almost reassuring to know I'm not just in this for the hot breath, sticky lips, saliva on my skin..

I see things like the concentration in the eyes or the steadiness of the hands instead. Confident. Assured. And that I should be the same.

The same old debate...fate or conscious choice....comes to dwell upon my brain again for a time.

I wonder how much control I have over my life....and how much I would really want.

Wake me up inside....call my name and save me from the dark...
maybe this new immense boredom will prompt me to write something everyday... Quickly running out of things to say but once I get to doing "stuff" i'll have "stuff" to talk about.

i sit around the house and think about what things i can do to keep myself occupied. unfortunatly, I find that most of these things require spending money....not that I dont have money, but this is supposed to generally be a summer of saving, not spending (so I can actually get some furniture for my apartment), and blowing large quantities of cash three days after I move home really doesnt seem like the best way to stick to that plan.

Thinking about cutting my hair. Possibly short again. For a change. I don't really know if I want to do it though. Any opinions?

I wonder how long it will take till we're alone...sitting on the front porch of that home...stomping our feet on the wooden boards...never gonna worry about locking the door...
Being home is so boring.. I spent five hours driving around the greater Grand Rapids area and essentially accomplishing nothing. I'm actually looking forward to starting at work. Scary thought for me.

Had a cute date today..the lazer light show. Darlin, I really did enjoy it a lot. Thank you. Even though the spinning stars made me sick to my stomach and the talking skull scared the shit out of me. It was still a lot of fun.

Ugh. I'm cold. And I want some lovin. And my keychain back. Also need to sleep. Sigh.

Some day I will find the secret to your social chemistry...then I'll print it on a T-shirt...
So, um....real entry....yeah...

This is hard.

Anyway, I'm HOME now. Like, the one with the parents and stuff. I didnt realize how much shit I acquired this year until I tried to shove it back in my (shared) room.

Along with the new house, I got a new job... I transferred back to Menards as planned, and went in to get my hours, and....surprise... I got moved to the electrical department. So that could be cool, I hope it will be but I'm scared because I don't know all that much about the products and stuff. And I have to go buy some damn belts because I need to carry a knife for boxes, maybe a tape measure, but how often do you need a tape measure with circuit breakers, I dont really know. I think I need to go review my employee manuals because I'm like, freaking out. So I'll start tuesday, its crazy because there's only like 6 people in the whole department... I'm mad nervous, but I think it'll be a change for the better.

Sold back my books and got mad cash, I think I may have actually MADE money this semester (well I know I did because my scholarship paid for the books anyhow) because I bought them on Half. Its a good feeling to have a couple hundred bucks in my wallet.

Of course, I have to spend a good chunk of that on the books for my summer classes, three of them. Ugh. But at least I'll have it done, only a few classes from finishing my Sociology major. I tend to forget that this was supposed to be my first year of school.

I'm glad I'm not living in the dorms. No offense guys. Most of you I'm gonna miss super major a whole big lot. And some others, I won't. But they ought to know who they are and if they don't you all know who I'm talking about anyhow. I'm quite surprised that the semester ended without it coming to blows.

I've met a lot of interesting types of people this year. Unfortunatly, I don't think I can really say that I changed (other than the fact that I've learned to stick to ONE guy). I realized at the end of the year, that its really hard to actually change yourself. You really just end up changing your perspectives on yourself, or on your life. (In other words, I've come to the conclusion that I will always be a nerd. No matter how cool I think I am.)

Keep in touch, ya'all. Sorry that my "goodbye" entry wasnt as personalized or as mushy, touching, heartfelt, as Jason's. I guess I'm just too masculine for that. :)

oooohh....my headache is getting worse....
funny that when all the stress is over i feel worse than i did when it was in full swing.

i think getting through that little incident brought us closer, made us stronger, all that jazz. there were rewards hidden there. sometimes i think that maybe i do believe in fate, maybe things happen for a reason.

so i got a role in a production at school...its community health theater, a production about "healthy sexual choices". i'm going to be a sexual health peer educator...har har har. it sounds naughty. anyway, i get to do it for credit...its a helluva lot of work but i hope it will be worth it, plus all the changes i had to make to my schedule....blaahhh...

wednesday is my audition tape to get a shift at the station...i'm wondering how it will go. but if you are ever in k-zoo (or on WIDR.org) listening to 89.1 FM and hear a dj who goes by "Bunny Foo-Foo", you'll know that I got in...

i think i'm supposed to go tanning tonite. i love places that are open 24 hours. they allow me to get the most out of life.

big test tomorrow in social psychology. last real test before the final.

i work a lot this weekend. and i think my parents are coming up to move out some of my furniture, and take down the loft.

i have a paper due in a week and two days for sociological theory.

jason and i are at three months in two weeks.

i have a 'C' in math. Pretty much no matter what. My grade is set right there unless i totally bomb the final, the last one that i have in finals week.

two weeks and 4 days until i move back home...sheesh.

entrancing
You have an entrancing kiss~ the kind that leaves
your partner bedazzled and maybe even feeling
he/she is dreaming. Quite effective; the kiss
that never lessens and always blows your
partner away like the first time.

my point is not to protest. my point is that people need to think a little harder before they jump into things. i'm not against the war. i'm against killing. i'm against people who think because Bush is president, he is always right. we need a generation of critical thinkers, and too many of us are simply mindless sheep.

i dont appreciate the harassment I've received from the floor on this issue. i would like to think that you were all intelligent and mature enough to respect someone else's opinion. unfortunately, with all the jeering, the anti-american comments, and the signs mocking protesters, I can't resepct any of you anymore. I can't ever look at you guys in the same way again. Next time think about how YOUR actions impact others.

i dont believe in killing, whatever the reason. -john lennon
You can bomb the world into pieces, but you can't bomb it into peace!

If you kill one person, you are a murderer. If you kill ten people, you are a monster. If you kill ten thousand people, you are a national hero.

THINK BEFORE YOU BOMB

War doesn't prove whos right, only whos left

America is a leader- lead with nonviolence

Bomb Texas - they have oil, too

Bombs leave a return address

Bombs kill too many children and too few dictators

God does not bless only America

How many lives per gallon?

I dissent

Let's try preemptive peace

Read between the pipelines

Save the humans

The United States military spends $65,573,200,000 per month. Why?

War is not a video game

Getting closer. I've got:
- One math exam
- One social psych exam
- A sociological theory paper
- Three finals

And then I'm done. If you count this week as over (which as of tomorrow, it is for me), I have three real weeks of classes left, and then exam week. And then I move back home, I'm scared to death of it. I'm scared of dealing with my parents, of the changes at work, of how much freedom i will have, of facing all my friends back home, of leaving the friends i have here. I also wonder how Jason and I's relationship will fare, knowing how busy I usually am, how strict my parents can be, and how far apart we live. I think...scratch that...I KNOW that it can be done, its just a matter of doing it and not giving in when things get rough. I've never been especially good at it, but I'm gonna give it a good shot.

I'm useless, but not for long...the future is coming on...
So yesterday was this phenomenally good day, I got a lot of work and studying done, did the homework I needed to do, finally figured out how to go to the library (yeah I know).. and cleaned my room like mad...every drawer in my desk has been organized and cleaned out. I guess I'm in the mood to get out of here, I'm ready to move out of the dorms. I don't really want to go home, but I think I need out.
My friends are all jerks and I can't stand the way they think that their lives center the universe. But really I'm just ignoring it and living my life away from them. Which has ups and downs.
I really want to go camping. I'm not sure exactly why, but that's the mood I've been in lately. I think a lot of people are feeling the same way. I need a break from life.
