Teacher's Pet

My summer is so uneventful...*sigh*

I had all these amazing and wonderful things that were supposed to happen to me...all I've gotten so far are unhappy and crappy things.

Well, that not really so true now that I think about it....some good things have happened.

For example:

I'm a voice performance major, for all you lovely people who didn't know this already. My kid sister Nikie likes to sing too and really looks up to me, which is cool. I like to think that we get along pretty well, better than most sisters would. She had a concert last week, and she had been asking about me going for like the last month or so...and I was cool with it, until I found out it was in the middle of the day and there was no way for me to get there. She was pretty upset, but hey, what could I do about it. The day of the concert I woke up to find that my step-mom had the day off, so we went to Nikie's concert and surprised her. Man, the look on her face was worth it...she just looked so overjoyed to see me there. It really gave me a warm tingly feeling inside. After that she really wanted me to stick around. She had been talking about me staying for lunch for a while, so I figured that I might as well do it today. So even though I really didn't want to, I stayed and had to deal with all the little boys ranging from ages 11 to 14. They almost drove me crazy, but I got to meet all of her teachers and they were pretty cool...ends up Nikie has told me a lot about them.

So here's where I get to the good part...

When Nikie got home she immediatly asked me what I thought of Mr. Summerlin (her main teacher...you know I'm not even sure if that's this dude's name, but that's what we'll call him.) I was like..."Ehhh, yeah, he was okay." Ends up this guy is like 23, right up there in my age range, and evidently Nikie think's we'd make just the perfect little couple, and so she's been trying to get me to come to lunch so she could "hook us up." I found this overly funny, and told her that she should have really told me this before hand...so I could hit on him or something funny like that. She told our daddy and he thought it was really funny too. The next day she told her teacher, "You know, you should really date my sister, you two would get along really well...and then you can get married and have babies." She tells me he thought this was funny too...so pretty much we all thought this was one big mess of funny. Yes, until I told Melissa about it. She was like "23?!?!?! He's dateable!!!!" Nikie loaned me her yearbook and I showed Melissa a picture of him. She was like "he's kinda cute." So we have devised a plan that includes my number getting to him. It's really too much, and I would never ever do something like this normaly, but Melissa brought up a good point. If he doesn't even make the second move...it's not like I'll ever have to see him again. It's something daring...and I had promised myself I'd be more daring.

So here comes the more daring Bekie.

I just hope I don't regret this.

Defying Gravity
Save the Boxes!!

My first year of college is finally over. Geeze, what a reliefe. Now I can just go home and rest for three months. I'm so glad it's over, but then again I am looking forward to next semester. Emily and I will be rooming together in the new fancy rooms, so that's gonna rock. Awww, I'm gonna miss all my carzy Carrollton music majors, especially after tonight.

A bunch of the music majors decided to get together and go out to eat....man what a wild time.

It started when Daniel came to pick me up. That was at like 6:50 and we weren't supposed to meet at the resturant until 7:30, but we were on a mission. Since we're all packing, of course we need boxes, but don't have any, so Daniel and I went driving behind Publix and other grocery stores looking for "boxes to rescue." It was like a secret mission. We had to be careful because it's illegal to go through people's trash, and we had to make sure not to rescue any "contaminated boxes." So we're driving around and finally, we spotted some poor captive boxes. Daniel quickly pulls over and we run out of the car. It ended up the boxes already had stuff in them so Daniel yelled, "Run away!" and we ran back to the car. As soon as we got into the car Daniel was like, "I wonder if we could have dumped that stuff out." I was like, "Yeah, it all looked pretty light." So we get back out of the car and go for the boxes again. Daniel started to pick it up but it was wet so he dropped it again. We both stood there looking at it for a couple of seconds and then Daniel yelled, "Run away," and we went running across the parking lot again. So we started to drive again. I spotted some good looking boxes by a dumpster and we pulled over again. This time I got out to get it, because Daniel got his hand all icky so he was considered "wounded in action." After I got it in there car I was like, "We should get rid of this one, it smells like trash." Daniel was like, "No, it's because my breath smells so good, you think the cardboard smell smells like trash instead." I laughed and figured whatever, wasn't my car that was gonna smell like trash in the morning. We got one more box that said cheese on it and then it was time to go. All the way to the resturant Daniel was talking to the boxes. He was saying things like "Shh, it's okay...you're safe now." It was so funny.

We got to the resturant and I sat with Jermey. We had a pretty good time and talked about a lot of stuff. I like Jeremy, he's one of those people you just get along with right off the bat. He's switching schools in the fall, meaning I won't be seeing him here at West Georgia anymore. I told him he would absolutly have to come and hang out with me this summer and on the weekends when school starts back up. Awww, I'm gonna miss him.

Fianlly the night was over. Daniel and I were quiet, because our little boxes were sleeping. Daniel said he was gonna feed them as soon as he got home. I told him that the one that said cheese might like cheese....or it has a realtionship with cheese, and that might be canibalistic. He decided against the cheese. You really feel like you've done something after you've saved a box.

Tomorrow my daddy and Carolyn (step-mom) are coming to pack up my things and then I'm leaving for home. Emily is going to come and help too.

I'm going to miss everyone so much. I almost want to say that I'm going to miss this place, but I feel that it's time for me to go home for a while. Come fall I'll be ready to come back. It's like the most amazing balance.

Carrollton and Gwinnett...and the most amazing friends that anyone could ever, ever ask for.

Everything is so beautiful.

Something has changed within me
Something is not the same
I'm through with playing by the rules
Of someone else's game
Too late for second-guessing
Too late to go back to sleep
It's time to trust my instincts
Close my eyes and leap

It's time to try
Defying gravity
I think I'll try
Defying gravity
And you can't pull me down

I'm through accepting limits
'Cuz someone says they're so
Some things I cannot change
But till I try, I'll never know
Too long I've been afraid of
Losing love I guess I've lost
Well, if that's love
It comes at much too high a cost


I'd sooner buy
Defying gravity
Kiss me goodbye
I'm defying gravity
And you can't pull me down

Carrollton Days

I'm going to write about my day today...while I'm in Carrollton, which is kinda strange since I usually only write about my times in Gwinnett. But today is journal worthy

We had a party today in Aural skills. It was to celebrate Dr. Morris. She's been our prof all year long...and then they decided to give her job away to some woman who could never ever do it as well as she does. So we threw her a party to show her how much love we all have for her.

I had history class after that. I learned history...I thought about ice cream.

I wrote a Music Appreciation paper all afternoon long. I had a test in that class too so I kinda sorta studied for it. So at 6:58pm I get to class, and start chattin' it up with Darshena. I asked her why she had her program stapled to her paper and she was like, "You have to have it...or he won't grade it." I was like "Damn!" so I looked in my bag for my program and it wasn't there and I again yelled "Damn!" Darshena was like, "Can you make it to your dorm room and back in ten minutes?" and I was like, "Yeah." As I was leaving she was yelling after me "Run Rebekah!!" Just then Daniel walked in and I was like "Hi Daniel...be right back!" So I ran all the way back to the dorm room, got my program, and started back to class. At this point I knew there was no way I was gonna make it back on time, so I stopped running. Hey, if I was gonna be late, I was gonna do it right. At the very end I started running again because I didn't want to be too late. In the end I was like three minutes late and they had already started the listening portion of the test. I sat down and got started...and thought I was gonna die of the heat...because the room was so freakin' hot and I had been running. I finished the test late because I had to wait for him to play the listening portion again.

On my way back to my dorm room I saw Daniel walking towards me. I asked him where he was going and he held up this little bit of paper. I was like, "What is that?" and he just told me to follow him. It ended up that was his ticket stub (subsitute for program.) He had forgotten his too, but you could turn them in after. He was like, "I was gonna go after you...but I figured you'd be too far away." I yelled, "You should have come after me! I didn't get that far!" We got to the stairs and I told him I'd wait...because I was tired of running. I got a soda...and finally I went upstairs for him. What do you know, he was headed back downstrairs the very moment I got up the damn things. On our way back to our dorm rooms we started to talked about Carrollton. Somehow we decided that we would write interperative poems about Carrollton and then put them all in a book. Here's what we've got so far...

Where are the squirrels going?

Up the trees

Down the trees

Nowhere

Nowhere

Nowhere

I wrote the first three lines, and then Daniel wrote the nowhere part. Next we're gonna write about the dirty little creek next to Robert's and the crazy wilderness lady.

Maybe we're brilliant.

Or maybe we're just crazy music majors.

I have to give Daniel my home nubmer tomorrow because Jeremy want it because he needs to get in touch with me over the weekend, because he wants something, but Daniel won't tell me until tomorrow. Geeze.

I'm not that girl

I don't know if I've got all of these right...but this really summs up a lot of the feelings I have right now.

Hands touch, eyes meet

Sudden silence, sudden heat

Hearts leap in a giddy whirl

He could be that boy

But I'm not that girl



Don't dream too far

Dont' loose sight of who you are

Don't remember that rush of joy

He could be that boy

I'm not that girl



Every so often we long to steal

To the land of what might have been

But that doesn't soften the ache we feel

When reality sets back in



Bright smile, light limb

She is winsome, she wins him

Gold hair with a gentle curl

That's the girl he chose

And heaven knows

I'm not that girl



Don't wish, don't start

Wishing only wounds the heart

I wasn't born for the rose and the pearl

There's a girl I know

He loves her so

I'm not that girl

love me

Vomit, Undergroud, and Broken Hearts

That's right kids! It's time for another one of my fun weekends stories...so grab yourself a snack and get comforatable.

~FRIDAY~

I had no classes. Yes I know, how cool is that?!?!? I woke up at around 10:30 (which is a beautiful thing when you're in college.) Sam and Scott came to pick me up. They actually asked for directions. You know, I think that's the first time I've ever even heard of a male asking for directions. That is so crazy. So we all pilled into the car. Sam, being the absolute darling that he is, asked me if I wanted the front seat, but I took the back. Unfortunatly, I had forgotten that I have an extremely dinky stomach. Scott's car was so fucking hot, and I got soo car sick. I was thinking, "Man, I hope there's nothing important back here...because I'm about to throw up all over it." It seemed like forever before I got home. Sam and Scott just left and left me sleep off my icky car sickness. That night I went with Melissa to see Nick perform in the GSU Band concert. It was soo cool. They kick major booty. After that we decided to go and visit Josh at Chiilie's. Josh is the other guy I met at Jillian's along with Brent. He left Jillian's a little later...and I never get to see him, which is such a shame, because he's my sex kitten. So we get there, and just our luck Josh left early. I was thoroughly depressed, but then I had some root beer, and then I was all better. I ate so much food, I once again thought I was gonna puke. They had to take me home because I got sick again. So the moral of this story is...Bekie got sick a lot on Friday, but she never actually threw up.

~Saturday~

My daddy was doing yard work, and asked my step-mom to wake my sister up. Well, what do ya know, she wakes me up instead. She doesn't like me. I got up anyway because I knew Nikie would never get up. So I helped my Daddy with yard work. It was actually pretty fun (no, I'm not crazy.) I like to hang with my daddy. A little later Christy (my step-mom's daughter) stopped by to drop Amber off. I showed her my tatto and we talked about our love for Elivis. Christy asked me what my step-mom had said about the tattoo and I told her that she wasn't speaking to me at the given moment. Christy was like, "Yeah, she used to always tell me when I was growing up that only whores have tattoos, so she was really pissed when I got my first one." So now it makes sense...she's not talking to me because I have a tattoo...which means I'm a whore. I'm not even gonna comment on this one. Later on Sam came to pick me up and we headed into Atlanta to pick up Melissa from her choir practice. I love Atalanta! It has to be one of the coolest places ever. I would love to live there. Melissa decided that since we were in Atlanta we had to go to Underground. She was thoroughly shocked that Sam and I had never been to Underground, especially since I've lived here all my life. Underground was pretty cool. We were gonna go to The World of Coke but the line looked forever long. We ended up just walking around and grabbing a bite to eat. There were a lot of pigeons. Anytime we go into Atlanta there are always pigeons, and I want to pet them, but they always fly alway. That makes me sad. After Atlanta we realized it was adoption day at the pet store, so we went to see all the pretty doggies and kitties. I loved them, they were all so sweet. We had to hurry after that so we could catch a viewing of The Prince and Me. That movie was okay...I wasn't too crazy about it though. After this of course we had to go to Jillian's. Brent was our server...and I broke the news of the affair to him. I made him sit next to me and I took his hand. I was like, "Bent, we feel like we should have an honest relatioship, so there's somthing you need to know....we had an affair." At first he looked at me like, "What the hell" and then I went on to explain, "We made friends with another waiter...at another resturant." He didn't take it as well as I had excpected. For a while he just faced the wall and said nothing. Nick tried to comfort him...but that didn't seem to help either. Eventually he came back, and suddenly the affair was my fault! He was like, "Bekie, I can't believe that you would go to another resturant and make friends with another waiter and become regulars!" I was like "Melissa and Nick cheated on you too!!!!!" Melissa didn't help by yelling, "It was Bekie's idea!" I told Brent that we weren't regulars, it was just a one time thing, and then he was okay. The best part was he really almost started crying because he was trying to look upset. We had a general good time all around at Jillian's...but we always do. After that we ran into our swinger friend...he always hits on me. I don't get it.

~Random Crap~

I think everyone in the world should come to Georgia at least once and eat at the Varsity. You haven't lived until you've eaten there.

I'm thinking about quitting Jillian's. Everytime I go there Cyndi (Brent's girlfriend...and fellow waiter) always looks at me funny. I'm afraid of her...she looks like she could kick my ass. I don't like people who look at me like they don't like me...and then I feel bad because I'm like, "Awww, everyone else knows her except for me...and I don't think she likes me anyway." She's pretty though. That doesn't help her much on my list, I don't like girl who are prettier than me...I don't like a lot of girls.

My life is cool. How lucky am I?

I'm listening to Elivis...faint.

love me

You won't believe what I did

Ultimate Sign of Bekie's Stress Level:

So I'm on the phone with Melissa monday night...just filling her in on my day and such. I figured I should check and see when my paper was due for English. I had to turn two in at one time and I wanted to kinda get an early start. So I pulled out my handy dandy schedule and see that both papers are due in no less than ten hours. I had to read it like 17 times before it finally sunk in that I was in deep shit. Melissa asked if I wanted her to let me go but I made her stay because I was afraid of having a panic attack or somthing like that. I kept my clam and Melissa helped me map out my papers. I just kept telling myself "Okay, it's 10:30 now and you have two papers due at 8 in the morning tomorrow. You can do this." The most brilliant part was, I finished both of those bad boys in less time than it usually takes me to do one. I was so proud. Tired...and proud.

I just thought that was a kick ass story and everyone should hear about it.

Things are pretty cool again. I've got everything pretty much on track. It feels really good to just get all this stuff out of the way and know that I'm that much closer to finishing the semester and going home. I really can't wait. I love being at home. I love everyone at home. I miss home.

But I love a lot of people in Carrollton too. Yay for some super cool Carrollton people!

I'm eating at McDonalds tonight. For some reason that excites me.

Pshh, I'm such a geek!

Things for Bekie to do before the end of the semester:

Recital Hour

Composition Project for Music Theory

Register for classes next semester (doing that today)

Vocal Jury

Pass all my finals with flying colors



bring it on...i'm ready

I was holding on, now I’m letting go
This is nothing more than a picture show
Everything I knew now I hardly know
Busy keeping less never getting more

One more nickel dime I’m out the door
This kind of life I can’t afford

I want to believe
There’s something to believe
I would live only
Just to believe
Oh, I’d love to believe
It’s not only me that’s longing
Only just to believe
‘Cause I want to believe
I want to believe

Can’t put my mind at ease with the words I say
Trying to get myself to get out of my way
Birds in the trees just make me depressed
Seeing sunny skies, feeling emptiness

Layers of lies just seem to fold
This kind of life is all I know

I want to believe
There’s something to believe
I would live only
Just to believe
Oh, I’d love to believe
It’s not only me that’s longing
Only just to believe
‘Cause I want to believe
I want to believe

Murder wears a friendly smile
Like the perfect end in a plastic vial
No pain
Sorry I can’t seem to stay
But this bird was meant to fly away
Fly away, fly away

Layers of lies just seem to fold
This kind of life is all I know

I want to believe
There’s something to believe
I would live only
Just to believe
Oh, I’d love to believe
It’s not only me that’s longing
Only just to believe
‘Cause I want to believe
I want to believe

I will believe
I’d love to believe
I can believe in something
I will believe
I’d love to believe
I can’t believe in nothing

love me

I Hate School

My Daddy and I got into a big fight over the phone yesterday. It sucked. I cried all afternoon long.

I started crying at Jillian's because I didn't want to go back to Carrollton...and then I cried in the car all the way back to Carrollton.

I mean I love some of the people I've met. I mean I really really do love them and we have good times when we're all together, but I can't imagin living here. Right now I'm so fucking stressed out with school. I just want it to end. I want it to all be over so I can go back home and never ever come back here again.

I tried to tell Daddy that but he didn't seem to understand.

I miss Meliss, Nick, Sam, and Brent too.

I miss them all.

I want to go home.

love me

I feel like dancing today.

Yesterday I stayed in and slept. I felt all popular becase Scott and Melissa called me wanting to do stuff...but I was sick and icky so I stayed in bed.

I called Melissa this morning and told her that I simply had to get out. We didn't actually go anywhere until like 6:30. We went to Gwinnett place mall so Melissa could buy Easter clothes. That mall has become so ghetto...it makes me frown. But in the end it was okay, because I bought some dippin' dots which where so kick ass.

After the shopping we left for Jillian's. Nick got his job back there so we sat with him. Melissa and I spent a lot of time in the bathroom having secret Bekie and Melissa chats. We then went out and found poor Brent who was in the game room. He made a comment about me getting with this guy I don't like so I had to go back into the bathroom and cry. Not a big cry, just a little cry. Then we went back out and found Brent and I hit him and said "You made me cry" and then he was like "I was just kidding...I'm sorry." Melissa and I then realized that Sam had been all by his lonesome at the table for like 20 minutes so we returned to him. We were gonna see a movie, but Sam had to get home so we drove around and bought coffee instead. I love French Vanilla Coffee.

You know what I've discovered, Brent is like the only guy I know who has that super cool hug pick up thing mastered. When I told him I was feelin' kinda crappy he gave me one (because they always make me feel better) and he managed to avoid my tattoo, which is still kinda sore. Later that night Sam also gave me a hug like this. Sam sometimes does it right, but this time he hit me right it the tattoo and I screamed. It was okay though...he didn't mean to. So the point is, Brent should give classes on how to hug Bekie correctly.

My daddy's kinda pissed about the whole tattoo thing. Yeah I told him...I always go for 'honesty is the best policy' with Daddy.

I still love my tattoo

Jeremy took a picture of it. I'm gonna post it on here as soon as I get my lab top back.

love me
