BORED!!! Stupid lab. It's so quiet here it makes me sleepy and people are being slackers and not showing up which means I get to sit here and do nothing. I have no reading for class, already did 2 crosswords! Grr...I just want to go pay rent, go to the bank, and nap so I can have fun later. On the positive side I am much less spinny than I was a week or so ago. I also think it's funny how some people have stolen my word spinny to describe their life. I don't really have a definition for spinny but it's kinda when your life is out of control but it's just so out of control you stop thinking about how out of control it is. So you feel um...spinny. Where it gets confusing is that sometimes spinny can be a good thing...it all depends on the situation. I was kinda bad but kinda good spinny. Now I'm not so spinny now which is lovely...spinny isn't the most stable emotion. Anyway, I missed class today. Not on purpose, but because I forgot when I have class and signed up for lab during my class time. It works out nicely though because I'm tired of going to class and now I have more time for my errands and napping. Another random thing: it's soooooo pretty outside. It's sunny (but I think it's going to rain later) and the leaves are all changing colors!! Fall is my favorite. Winter is nice too but that's mainly because of all the Christmas cheer and no school. I suppose that's all for now...

I was making a cd mix for a friend of mine who is in need of some hugs and it made me think...

how do you trust someone once they betray you
how do you stop loving someone
should you ever stop loving someone
and if so, how do you?
should you follow your heart
even if it means getting ignored and hurt again
or should you just let it go...
does fighting mean things have to end
isn't love enough...
unless there never was love

"There now, steady love, so few come and don't go
Will you won't you, be the one I always know
When I'm losing my control, the city spins around
You're the only one who knows, you slow it down

Oh, oh
Be my baby
Ohhhhhh
Oh, oh
Be my Baby
I'll look after you
And I'll look after you "

"You need me less than I need you
Take it from me we don't give sympathy
You can trust me trust nobody
But I said you and me we don't have honesty
The things we don't want to speak
I'll try to get out but I never will
Traffic is perfectly still

*playing cards really late night is great fun...and did you know there is such a thing as an orangekwat (orange + kumkwat)??

how could you

Hurt...how does someone move past hurt? Forgiveness helps but forgetting is just impossible. There is no way to forget someone who touched you heart and you life. Hmm...its all so confusing. Love in general is confusing. I think it's because love takes so many forms...love is so many emotions at the same time. It can be fantastically happy and devestantingly hurtful at exactly the same time. I think that's completely unfair.

Doubt...can destroy things. We doubt so much. We doubt how people feel about us, doubt our abilities, doubt the future. I do this too often. I have seen how it can ruin relationships. Yes, other things besides doubt runied it too but doubt allowed me to put up a barrier he couldn't fix or even justify. I suppose people unnecessairly doubt because of lack of self-confidence and past hurts.

it's sad when thing come to and end. it's sad when an amazing friendship is lost for confusing and complicated and silly fights. in the end i try to make the memories count. those memories can never be destroyed. and it's always the little memories that mean the most....the special memories between two people.

it's hard to let go...

Plumb- Nice, Naive, and Beautiful

She's so nice, naive, and beautiful

She's only known heartache and pain
She's never known pain like this
She stands alone defending her name
Know that she's trying
to be who she is
Well is it so wrong
to be who we are
when all that she's done is fail?

Cause she's so nice, naive, and beautiful
Why does she keep taking advantage?
Why does she live in a world so cold?
She takes advantage of the nice, naive, and the beautiful

Cold is the throne of her hardened heart
No one has seen the softest part
Day after night she holds an ache
but won't budge to show
the secret layers
Well is it so wrong to hang onto hers?
Maybe she could set it free

Cause she's so nice, naive, and beautiful
Why did she get taken for granted?
Why does she live in a world so cold?
He took advantage of the nice, naive, and the beautiful

If you've been there, you know
If you're still there, hang on
We're all dealt our lumps of coal
What you do with it can turn beautiful

Well there's life outside of your madness
and there's a face behind every scar
But there's a love overflowing with gladness
Get out of that place that's restraining your love
I said get out of that place that's restraining you love

She's so nice, naive, and beautiful
She's so nice, naive, and beautiful

The Fray- all at once

There are certain people you just keep coming back to
She is right in front of you
You begin to wonder could you find a better one
Compared to her now she's in question

And all at once the crowd begins to sing
Sometimes the hardest thing and the right thing are the same

Maybe you want her maybe you need her
Maybe you started to compare to someone not there

Looking for the right one you line up the world to find
Where no questions cross your mind
But she won't keep on waiting for you without a doubt
Much longer for you to sort it out

And all at once the crowd begins to sing
Sometimes the hardest thing and the right thing are the same

Maybe you want her maybe you need her
Maybe you started to compare to someone not there
Maybe you want it maybe you need it,
Maybe it's all you're running from,
Perfection will not come

And all at once the crowd begins to sing
Sometimes
We'd never know what's wrong without the pain
Sometimes the hardest thing and the right thing are the same

Maybe you want her maybe you need her
Maybe you've started to compare to someone not there
Maybe you want it maybe you need it
Maybe it's all you're running from
Perfection will not come

Maybe you want her maybe you need her
Maybe you had her maybe you lost her to another
To another

love these lyrics...

When the calls and conversations
Accidents and accusations
Messages and misperceptions
Paralyze my mind
Busses, cars, and airplanes leaving
Burnin' fumes of gasoline and
And everyone is running and I
Come to find a refuge in the

Easy silence that you make for me
It's okay when there's nothing more to say to me
And the peaceful quiet you create for me
And the way you keep the world at bay for me
The way you keep the world at bay

Monkeys on the barricades
Are warning us to back away
They form commissions trying to find
The next one they can crucify
And anger plays on every station
Answers only make more questions
I need something to believe in
Breathe in sanctuary in the

Easy silence that you make for me
It's okay when there's nothing more to say to me
And the peaceful quiet you create for me
And the way you keep the world at bay for me
The way you keep the world at bay

Children lose their youth too soon
Watching war made us immune
And I've got all the world to lose
But I just want to hold on to the

Easy silence that you make for me
It's okay when there's nothing more to say to me
And the peaceful quiet you create for me
And the way you keep the world at bay for me

The easy silence that you make for me
It's okay when there's nothing more to say to me
And the peaceful quiet you create for me
And the way you keep the world at bay for me
The way you keep the world at bay for me
The way you keep the world at bay

Right now as my cute kitty cat is curled up next to me (she doesn't usually do thIs, guess she really missed me while I was in athens) I am up wondering why we form the relationships we do. Some of these are obvioulsy harmful but we still can't resist. I wonder why people (myself included) do this. It's odd really...it makes perfect sense that we wouldn't want someone in our life who treats us with little respect or affection however sometimes we let people like this into our world. SinceI tend to be hopelessly optimistic, I am trying to have faith that this will work out. But, 2hatever happens, my cat loves me and that is pretty fantastic!!!! Usually after I leave her she is mean and snobby to me for a few days...but not this time, she is all cuddly and sweet! Oh...driving home in a thunderstorm = no fun...very scary too.

I finally felt like I had some closure. Then out of nowhere things change. I don't think this. I don't like doing how we play this little game of psuedo-friendship over and over. It's not good for me...it's not fair. Friends should be consistant people in life, not just reappearing every few years or months. We will see where this goes but it is hard to forget the past quickly. I'm not sure if I would even want to forgive the past if given a real chance.

Birthday Time!

I turned 22 today...of course I don't feel any different because change or growing up doesn't happen once a year. Change occurs gradually it's associated with events and experiences in someone's life instead of an arbitrary day. However, I have grown and changed this year...hopefully for the best. I would say that I have become more me. It seems funny to become more "me" since I have obviously always been me but I have become the me I desire to be more so.

Family Fun

Mon, 05 Jun 2006 15:53:57 GMT

I went to dinner with my family yesterday. This is what we discussed:

1. vegans vs. vegetarians, difference in diet, where they buy their food, etc...
2. difference between tiramisu (an Italian dessert consisting of layers of sponge cake soaked with coffee and brandy or liqueur layered with mascarpone cheese and topped with grated chocolate) and baklava (popular in Greece and Turkey, this sweet dessert consists of many layers of butter-drenched phyllo pastry, spices and chopped nuts. A spiced honey-lemon syrup is poured over the warm pastry after it`s baked and allowed to soak into the layers. Before serving, the dessert is cut into triangles and sometimes sprinkled with coarsely ground nuts)
3. argued when Nintendo debuted...1985
4. suduko...how to play, origin

Conclusion: my family is odd but interesting

Now for a cute but slightly disturbing website...

I got bored, took some random quizzes online and found out....

1.) I am Peter Pan
2.) I am Mario
3.) I am a Golden Retriever puppy

I must say I disagree with the resuts...for one I am a girl so being Peter Pan or Mario is impossible. Two...I am human so being a puppy is also impossible.

There is nothing like a drive while the sun is setting
against miles and miles of beautiful trees and
solidarity to remind you of the power and majesty of God.
Sometimes you find
exactly what you need
in the places you least expect.

Silence is Deafening

Tue, 16 May 2006 05:21:15 GMT

Words can hurt but sometimes silence can be even more painful. I suppose this is because words can lead to some sort of understanding. Silence leads to this akward unknowing. I tend to give people second-chances, I want to fix the akwardness. Even when I could get hurt, I fully believe in second-changes because people make mistakes, words can be misconstrued, and situations are intrepreted wrong. I do this because I have a desire to understand people and their reasoning behind their actions, thoughts, and words. Sometimes this falls through and I don't get the clarity I want so badly to have- or maybe the silence is clarity. In the end, I must treasure the memories instead of dwelling on the knowledge that there will not be any more and understand that sometimes it is best to accept the silence. People go in and out of lives, these people alter us, alter our lives forever. The most we can do is be thankful we had the chance to make memories, remember the good times, remember the bad times and learn from both. Finally I feel like I can accept this...I must say it is a good feeling.

There are people in your life that captivate you. I don't like being captivated.

Thu, 04 May 2006 15:48:08 GMT

Why I find school annoying:
Kohlberg's Theory of Moral Developement
tenured professors
finals...and the grades associated with them
the psych. buliding not having a wireless internet connection
getting up early

this is super funny (just for you leelee):

I hate it when there are those times in your life when you are faced with a decision. No matter what you decide things probably won't turn out exactly how you want them to. On one side, if you don't do anything you could be missing out on something; put how many changes can you give someone. On the other hand, if you do something you could get hurt. Of course, if you've already been hurt how much do you have to lose? Clearly, this issue needs to be pondered more...

So lately I've been doing some thinking about friendships. I have realized that I am so blessed to have good friends in my life but deeply saddened to realize that some people I though were good friends may not be. There are those people in everyone's life that we care about for some strange reason even though they continue to dissapoint us. I'm not sure why I allow myself to contiune these relationships, constantly try to repair them, and hope that things will change.

On a completely unrelated note I have a terrible inablity to get motivated. This is not good because finals are soon apporaching and I probably should be studying/finishing a paper, etc. Instead, I am thinking about things I cannot change and wasting time online taking silly quizzes.
