A List.

I will now make a list of things I don't want to do.

1. Go back to school. Screw that, Christmas break is awesome, I love my family, I love seeing old friends, and I love my boyfriend. THATS WHY SCHOOL IS STUPID. One week from today JTerm class will be starting. FML.

2. Continue Coughing. I do not want to cough one more time... everyone in my family thinks I'm really annoying because of the constant coughing. I am ILLLLLL. Big time. I sound like a man.

3. Get off of this bed. I could lay here all day. SERIOUSLY. I just might even.

4. Go back to school. Oh, did I say that already?

GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

Today I am meeting up with ALYSSA :) yay roomie. And her boo Ethan... and Erik. annnd whoever else comes to The Grind to eat with us. It's so weird that the only time THEY see each other is at school..... and the only time I see Erik is when I'm NOT at school. I kind of..... am jealous.

Time to go get ready. Happy last week of vacation.
Sad.

peace&love.

you'll shoot your eye out!

MERRYCHRISTMAS!

what a day. I love being home? Most Christmases my family is traveling at this point.. BUT today I am home, in my sweats, and laying in a chair watching A Christmas Story for the first time ever. Yeah, I know. It's on for 24 hours though! Crazy. I LOVE IT.. it is so funny & cute.

Today I'm going with my family to the movie 7 Pounds.. Will Smith. I'm so exciteddddddddddd.. because he is an amazing actor. LURVEhim. Hopefully it's a good movie..? After that I'm gonna do some cleaning because tons of my family is coming. And my room is a mess.. I'm really excited for my family to come. I haven't seen them in so long.

WHY IS MY TEXTING SO DUMPY. for 2 days I have had terrible service as far as texting goes. and that is ANNOYING. Maybe if Erik would just come home I wouldn't have to text him. YEAH.

Alright, well time to be MORE lazy. I want to wish all who will come across this post a very VERY blessed CHRISTmas. And not to be cheesy.. but seriously. This is the best time of year, to be with family and friends and loved ones.. ENJOY IT! Take advantage of it... and remember that Jesus is the Reason for the Season! I am very thankful. Have a wonderful CHRISTmas!

God's peace&love :)

An Ode to the Men in my Life.

Being home for Christmas reminds me of the awesome men I have in my life and how thankful I am for them. I LOVE THEM. and so, I decided to write about how much I love them. :)

NICK- HAPPY BIRTHDAY, today is his 17th Birthday :) I am so proud of him and all he has accomplished in just his 17 short years. Seriously. He is so talented, smart, and he is truly more than just a brother, he is a friend. My oldest and dearest. I miss him so much when we're apart. We have the best of times, and sometimes I want to kill him. I hope he likes my Christmas AND Birthday presents.. YES, I have to spend double $$$ on him this time of year.

DAD- oh, Dad. I think I'm more like him than my mom. People say I look more like him too.. He is one of the funniest people I know & I am so proud of him, too. He has so much on his plate all of the time. Seriously. I don't know how he does it.. but I know why. He loves his family & it is evident. I feel bad that life is stressful for him with basketball and school right now.. I hope it gets better. I love getting to see him all the time being home like this.

ERIK- My best friend. I love him so much, I can't explain it. I love being home and getting to see him. It is the best feeling in the world getting to see him so often. But I hate the fact that I have to even think about leaving him again. I hate being away from him. It is the worst feeling. And I know it will only get worse. If he really goes to school so far away next year, our time together will be few and far between, and I don't know how I'm going to be able to handle that. I keep telling myself NOT to think about that. But it is so hard. It is so hard. I am so SO SO thankful that he has come into my life this year. I never EVER want to be without him. Truly. God has blessed me 20 times over by putting Erik into my life.

Not all females my age can say that throughout their life they have been blessed with such great guys in their life. I am SO SO SO thankful to God for putting three amazing men in my life, starting with my Dad since I was born, to Nick at age 2, to the most recent being Erik about 7 months ago. I know all of these guys will be in my life forever. I do.

I LOVE YOU GUYS. and I can't say that enough. Thank you for everything you do for me every day.

home sweet.

finally.
that's really all I have to say, FINALLY.. I am home. CHRISTmas break has officially begun and I couldn't be happier. Sleeping in my own bed, spending time with my family, seeing old friends, ERIKKK, basketball games, CHRISTMAS IN GENERALLL. I love it. All of it. Oh, I forgot to mention... NO SCHOOL FOREVER. Yeah, Luther is fine. But I sure love being home. LOVE.

Time is going by so fast. Not this break per-say.. But just time in general. Am I seriously done with an entire semester of COLLEGE already? Am I seriously IN COLLEGE??!!??... it TRULY is surreal sometimes. Just being home and even going to the school. I can't belive it was an ENTIRE YEAR AGO already that I was standing on the sidelines harassing the oposing basketball team with Kale & Taylor. Seriously. And now here I am coming home to visit? FROM COLLEGE?? where I LIVE!? It's weird. I don't know how I feel about it yet. It's just weird.

BUT RIGHT NOW..... I'M HOME. So I will think about that and only that and enjoy every minute. EVERY MINUTE. I can't wait for all of the festivities.. :) :) I'm getting excited just thinking about it.

I'm also getting tired. EVEN THOUGH I get to sleep in as long as I WANTTTT.. ;) its time to sleep. Hopefully I'll update more as my Christmas activities progress.

May everyone who reads this be blessed with many great times & memories with family, friends, and lovers all throughout the Christmas season. YES, thats cheezy, but seriously. Christmas is all about family and friends. So enjoy it.

peace & love.............. and a VERY Merry CHRISTmas :)

TIZ THE SEAZON.

what up.

in case you didn't notice, I'm doing a second entry. WHAT!!? yeah. I am.

I'm sooooOOooOOOooOOOoOOO excited for Christmas Break. Like, for realz style. Selfishly, I am also excited to get stuff. (and get summm.. JUST KIDDING) I mean, COME ON I'm a poor college kid, it will be REALLY nice to get some stuff without having to pay for it! Nam?

I'm also excited to give stuff though, thats how I roll. I love giving presents. Seeing peoples reaction... I love that. This year, unfortunately, I feel like I am giving a lot of CRAPPY presents. Last year I remember being really excited about all the presents I had gotten, this year, not so much. Plus now I have a homeboy BOYFRIEND that I have to stress about and buy for..... is it worth it? Do I keep him....???

ALRIGHT, I'll keep him. ;)

But seriously though, my gifts are lame. I'm bummed. Maybe when I go shopping Thursday after I get home (!!!!!!!!!!!!!) I will redeem myself and get some good stuff. PS. I cannot wait for that day. And actually, the day before, which is Wednesday, which means I am on Christmas BREAK...

AND NOW THIS POST HAS COME FULL CIRCLE. I am so excited for Christmas BREAK!!! (If you didn't remember, I started off this entry with the exact same phrase. HI-o!!!!!!!!!!)

I have so much crap to do before I leave. I'm sitting and looking around my McNasty room and realizing how much I need to clean and move and pack and vaccum and dust and arrange and pack and and and and ................................. gahhhh.

It will all be worth it. Oh, I also have to take out my garbage. Its bubbling over the edge. NARST.

Speaking of NARST, I should get back to studying. Who am I even talking to in these posts, really. I mean, one person "subscribes" to this crap, AND ITS MY BFF THAT LIVES ACROSS CAMPUS FROM ME. Lurve you Chaylor, but seriously................ We don't have any cyber friends!? I like to pretend that as I'm typing this though that I am speaking to the whole WorldWideWeb. Like, anyone who ever uses the Internet. blahblahblah I'm rambling.

TIME TO STUDY.. and watch Jon & Kate Plus 8, the best show on TV (suriously.)

Merry Christmas & REMEMBER..... Jesus is the reason for the season :)

peace & love.

so many questions.

..... mainly, will I ever use this blog?

the answer?

Actually, I don't know. Maybe? Possibly? If I know that no one is ever going to read it, it could be a very therapeutic thing to do. You know, get all my thoughts out. "Examine my life".. Socrates would say that my life wouldn't even be worth living unless I examind my life. Hmm.. Thanks a million to Prof. Lise Kildegaard and Paideia for introducing THAT into my life.

I miss home. I do. Every day I do. Thankfully it's only 3ish days until CHRISTmas break, thank you Jesus. I miss Erik. I miss my family. I appreciate the things at home so much more now that I'm not there. A TON. I can't wait to spend time with them.

Thats all I really have to say so far. This could be the first and only entry in this fancy-pants blog. WHO KNOWS. Maybe I'll update it religiously and be obsessive about having others know about my life.

WHO KNOWS. Only............. God, I guess?

PAIX & love.
