warning: this entry is really really long so if you're really bored...i hope you enjoy:]
usually i hate valentine's day bc it is such a worthless holiday, hallmark owns it and makes bajillions of dollars on people who use one day to prove their love for their significant other even though as you may have read in my last entry, you shouldn't have to have a special day to prove you care...you should say it all the time!!! lol anyways, pat is the best! he took me to liberatore's where i got probably one of the most expensive things on the menu but it was sooo nice there. there were candles and dim lights, it was really clean & people were all dressed up and pretty. lol. i've never experienced anything like it. we were probably the youngest people there and they even asked us if we needed a wine list and we were like umm nah lol. i've never been taken to that nice of a place before:) anyways, they have *very* good food and a great atmosphere and when we were leaving there was this guy @ a table and he had a guitar and the lady he was w/ was crying and i assume he was proposing or something but it was sooo cute lol. haha i'm such a dork but if you had been there you would have thought it was cute too;) haha. pat got me a really pretty heart necklace and then when we got back to his place he got me one of those squishy bean pillows bc i always steal his:) it's so squishy i love it. and he also put up glow and the dark stickers on the ceiling...very cool and he missed stargate monday night so we could watch the notebook:)! i love that movie and it is so sad but in a happy way like linda said. i won't spoil the ending or anything but i highly recommend it to everyone. i think i'm going to go buy the book this weekend. needless to say, it was a perfect night and it couldn't have been any better:]
hmm lesse...today was a very good day because i finally know what my research paper is on so i can start preparing for that and therefore get it out of the way. i know i'm a nerd but i love it and i just can't help myself. i can't wait to get it over w/ bc research papers suck and they loom over your head forever until you finish them and there's so much crap involved in them. argh why were they invented!...so people like myself could BS their way out of worthless assignments. oh well. this should be my best BS work in my career bc i honestly have no ideda what my book is about so i'm just going to watch the movie again and talk about the usual-irony and the difference of social classes and the meaning of independence and life...blah, blah, blah. also, we had a sub in math and i kinda understand what we're doing now bc we had a really good practice sheet and i just taught it to myself after i stared @ it for probably 10/15 minutes. i love the feeling after you don't understand something and then suddenly you have an epiphany and get it. it's so great. after school i went to national art honors society w/ summer and we discussed the set design for the musical: Anything Goes. i can't wait to get started because it sounds like a lot of fun and just a cool project. it's going to be a lot of work but i think we can do it. i also got to see casey, kayla and luci doing their 'Heaven Hop' dance haha. it was awesome, i wish i could do it. one day you guys will have to teach it to me lol. stupid frucci kicked us out of the set bc he's a freak like that but w/e. i can't wait til mrs roby takes over again bc she loves the art people and will let us do whatever we want. she really is a nice lady but some people think she's kind of a mean bitch at times. i guess i would be too if i had to teach a big musical to about 60 kids. i would go crazy. anyways, mrs kasmer talked a long time about random crap as always after we looked @ the set construction and summer and i wanted to leave so we just said we had to be 'places' and walked out the door. then we went to starbucks to get some free drinks and my schedule for next week which sucks a lot because i took off for pats birthday and he scheduled me anyways. i was really annoyed but i can probably get someone to exchange with-let's hope @ least, or else i'm going to be pissed. also, he has me working 4 days that week. i've never worked that much! i hate it! i think i might quit, or @ least say that to myself for the next month or so. i had a possible interview @ american eagle yesterday which would have been awesome but o well, that kinda fell through bc mom thinks the mall is too dangerous @ night by myself. whatever. i guess we'll see what happens. cross your fingers. oh yes... i cannot forget to say good luck to everyone who applied to college park! i know you were all supposed to find out today but apparently not til this weekend or something. just have patience and be optimistic. i'm sure whatever happens you'll be fine but good luck just the same! oh yeah ... everyone should go to IMPACT because it's going to be the GREATEST WEEKEND OF YOUR LIFE! we're going to invade OC. i can't wait! i think i'm signing up this weekend if i remember but yeah, you all have to go. if you don't know about it ask me, kayla or holly or anyone who goes to Grace or shockwave bc you won't regret it. also, im really excited for the starting line/further seems forever/jamisonparker show this thursday. i haven't been feeling that great lately so i dunno if i'll still be up to it but i'm sure it will be awesome and i'm going to take lots of pics hopefully so i can't wait for that. also, i'm probably going to see chris tomlin, steven curtis chapman and casting crowns on april 3 @ 1st mariner arena w/ enoch and lawrence(my 2 new buddies> you guys are awesome! i'm so glad we have so much in common w/ faith and music and everything!!!) and friends. i was going to w/ irene but i haven't heard from her in forever(if you read this gimme a call because we need to catch up on life and everything else!). i also need to sign up for spring or summer sailing because sailing=life, and i haven't sailed in so long. i'll have to talk to corbin(who has the coolest name!) about that. i need to catch up with a lot of people i've realized because i've just been so busy but hopefully i will figure out a little thing called "time-management" and then i'l be able to hang out w/ all these people like irene, corbin, zendle, and eric, just to name a few. anyways, i need to get info about my Radford University chat room w/ the students and admissions people. my admissions lady for my state is sooo nice! she calls me and sends me nice postcards. i wish all colleges were that personal but i guess they have so much stuff to do they couldn't possibly have time for that. ok well i'm officially out!!!
(...whew that was long...)
ps: jovial is my favorite word;] lol
"is this a dream, if it is
please don't wake me from this high
i've become comfortably numb
until you opened up my eyes
to what it's like when everything's right
i can't believe...
you found me when no one else was looking
how did you know just where i would be
yeah, you broke through all of my confusion
the ups and the downs and you still didn't leave
i guess that you saw what nobody could see
you found me...you found me."
"This is thy hour O Soul, thy free flight into the wordless,
Away from books, away from art, the day erased, the lesson
done,
Thee fully forth emerging, silent, gazing, pondering the
themes thou lovest best,
Night, sleep, death and the stars."
-Walt Whitman
favorite quotes from the notebook:
"The best love is the kind that awakens the soul and makes us reach for more, that plants a fire in our hearts and brings peace to our minds"
"I am nothing special; of this I am sure. I am a common man with common thoughts, and I've led a common life. There are no monuments dedicated to me and my name will soon be forgotten, but I've loved another with all my heart and soul, and to me, this has always been enough."
-THE END-
