Spring Break....

Despite my wonderous attempts or thoughts of going to NYC... I realise now wasn't a good time... duh.  I spent a good bit in Charleston and then came back to work.  Had some quality time with my mom... and a bit with the grandparents.  Had lunch with Michael- caught up a bit with him... and Dill as well.  Got to catch up with Bob and Nancy too....  
Current hometown gossip... Bryan and Haley are gonna have a baby... I feel old... hahaha... and Michael is planning engagement with Lauren over this summer.  

I spent a good bit reading... and downtown... worked on my photo project, too.

Came back Wednesday -worked Thursday, Friday and Saturday... Watched the game at work... it was pretty awesome and got interviewed the next day... hahaha- haven't read the article yet.  And yesterday was Jason's bday so Brandy and I went out with him and his friend, Chase.  Luke was there in spirit or should I say drunken dialing... 

On a sidenote...

Theatre is NOT the Torrell Martin MAJOR!!!! Thank you very very very much.... had to get that out.... 

other than that... things are going alright... 

my last event is this coming weekend and so is PETE YORN... ah woo hoo!

Sometimes I feel that I want the rose colored glasses back.

People talk about their 40 hour days and I think 'Wow, you're lucky'   My days don't even compare.  Try multiplying 12 x 5.  And that sometimes is low balling it.  Saturdays are my only 'free' days, but I'm either photo shooting, writing, reading or preparing an event.  I try to catch up on sleep but it rarely happens.

I  have work and school.  I'm not complaining about school- I love my classes and for once they are actually making me want to do all of the work - I mean every class.... there isn't one that doesn't make me want to do anything.  I've at least had one each semester that I wasn't pumped about.  And as for work... it is the easiest job and I need money.  

When I'm not working or going to school I'm either cooking food for the next day's or week's lunch and/or dinner or attempting sleep.  Also- not to forget DSU.  I thank goodness that I only have 3 events this semester.  I barely get to go to full events except the Saturday ones.  This weekend - I'm so looking forward to it. Luke and Co.... woooo!

It's just odd to me to say 'I don't have time" and mean it.  This week has been hard and it's only Tuesday.  I have community service to do for my class on top of the others.  So if you see me- don't take me seriously.  I'm either rushed, tired, or hungry... but I still love you anyways.  

MY SCRIPT 'WITH HONEY' WILL BE IN THE ONE ACTS THIS SEMESTER! that makes me soooo happy!

my psuedo was once a hippie- feminstic mother... just said she isn't a feminist and I got in an argument with her telling her that she is.  i just die inside a little. apparently she doesn't want to be 'put in a box' -whatever that means.  this woman set a good few values for me as a woman and now she's being a punk ass. sometimes i want to smack her upside the head and say wake up! love the woman to death, but she has really been frustrating me a lot and I hate that.  I feel that we are growing apart and it sucks.

so on the plus side- it looks as though the democrats are taking over... and it really looks like a good thing for us. don't think the stupid amendment was thrown out- how can you define love? marriage is a commitment, an expression of love... doesn't matter if you love a man or a woman... anyway, it looks like there will be alcohol on sundays in rock hill. and our re-elected state leader was too 'brilliant' to remember his registration card- therefore he couldn't vote. yay, it's bad enough this state gets labeled stupid, but now at least we have an excuse... thank you mark sanford.

What American accent do you have?
Your Result: The West

Your accent is the lowest common denominator of American speech. Unless you're a SoCal surfer, no one thinks you have an accent. And really, you may not even be from the West at all, you could easily be from Florida or one of those big Southern cities like Dallas or Atlanta.

The Midland
Boston
North Central
The Inland North
Philadelphia
The South
The Northeast

That would because I am from the south... I guess when you move to the west during your 'devopling' years it helps you out? I;m just a ramblin...

We'll do it all
Everything
On our own

We don't need
Anything
Or anyone

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lay with me and just forget the world?

I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel

Those three words
Are said too much
They're not enough

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lay with me and just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
To show me a garden that's bursting into life

Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads

I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lay with me and just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
To show me a garden that's bursting into life

All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, They're all I can see

I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things will never change for us at all

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lay with me and just forget the world? 


I'm in love with that song.  And I totally want to renact it... of course that will only last a few minutes with my ADD and knowing that I have something to do.  I'm becoming 5 and wanting to play outside and only worry about the sun going down.  I have to make a decision and I have a vague idea of what I want, but I don't know what's best for me.  I have to grow up now completely.

First of all, I could not live without the sense of smell.  It's the whole connection with memory that reels me into comfort... (reference to this will occur again).

Ok, since I'm such a slacker... last weekend in a nutshell I had a blast. (besides the driving at 5 in the am).  
~I went fishing with Michael and got sunburned... wooo.  We also went on this island- that I really want to camp on
~I love the ocean way too much for my own good
~I caught up with my girls: Krystal and Dill
~I went to see the Violent Femmes (oh the amazement!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) with Bobby and Amanda
~Got to be with my mom and grandparents for bit
.... All in all a really good time :)

This week was Retreat at Montreat!
A whole weekend with DSU! The abridged version.... Mountainnnnnnnnnnns!, Rock hoppin', hikin', cookin' (more like cleanin' for me), trivia games (I owned 'em...ha), never have I ever minus the beverage, pennies, CHAOS, runnin around with a ball in between my legs, canoeing, truth be told, truth or dare, bonding over comedians, sleeping on the hardest bed in the whole lodge, posing for photos, playing in halloween costumes, bonding times, talent show, impersonations, and stimulating convo in the wee hours of the morning.... not to mention getting slightly lost on the way up and jammin to some tunes... and having the best pizza ever.  Great weekend... Great people.

i'm already procrasinating things that really could be done in no time... 

so weekend update with kevin nealon... 
~i dragged keri to go shopping with me. the mission was get a new bag ( i say bag bc i don't like book bags...) anyway, i ended up buying a pair of jeans -thanks to keri- and some shirts... i spent less than 50bucks... not too bad.
~went salsa dancing... it was fun
~i got some good food at lowe's with caroline, craig, and melissa.... but i have yet to actually cook.
~worked saturday and was armed with things to occupy myself since no one wants to buy textbooks on the weekend, let alone on saturday... 
~still going strong on tuesdays with morrie... i have to stop bc of pride and prejudice.... grrrr, jane austen what you do to me.
~i bought black dahlia in hopes of finishing it this weekend, but again no time... but i will get it done before i see the movie.
~open mic night was pretty good... i really wanted to see comedian dude, but he wasn't there and it made me really sad. but those who were there did a good job. comedian dude better be there next time, dammit.
~and brandy, dez, mike and i decided to play a ridiculous match of ping-pong that built up a sweat and beat the breath out of us... it was great.

i'm planning a tripage to home... hopefully i'll be able to do it... it's past due.

'The director may choose to veto a playwright's indications...'  'Remember that you are working on the director's interpretation of the play, and any of the playwright's concepts are subject to modification by the director.'  Hmm where were those words a few weeks ago?

Well, my days are less crazy now that Welcome Week is over.  But I do have the Clubs and Organizations Fair and the Comedy X Tour.  I can say one thing I really do miss... cooking.  Fixing food... the other day I got excited over making salad.  I really have the urge to clean, too.  Weird, right? I really am in the laundry/ getting rid of shit mood.  

I have the sudden urge to re-read Tuesdays with Morrie... this should be fun with Pride and Prejudice and the Great Gatsby.   

As for school- I really do like my work load... all of it seems pretty interesting.
