she is alive!
i know i havent updated in about 3 months now but i havent fallen off the face of earth and i do still obsessively check my friends page at least once or twice a day so i know how everyone else is doing.
ive been pretty busy until recently. november and december were insane with working at the press, all the holiday parties at rams head (i was 'lucky' enough to work thanksgiving, christmas AND new years) and my finals for my marketing and public relations classes (which i managed to snag double As for). then i took 2 weeks off from the press and took 2 winter term classes, psychology and sociology. i went to school from 9a to 5p for 11 days and pretty much wanted to shoot myself. it was insane, esp bc i still had to work at rams head during that time in order to pay the bills. but it was a good kinda insane - i kinda liked it. and i snagged double As there too. now im back at the press 5 days a week and its dead as a doornail, as the saying goes. rams head is dead too - i actually thought i was fired for a lil bit bc i wasnt on the schedule but no theres just no parties this time of the year. and while im taking 3 night classes (mass media, logic and cultural geography) they havent really picked up too much yet. so i went from 2 months of pure insanity to the past month of pretty much nothingness. and its driving me totally insane.
bc i was so busy with everything i didnt really get to see anyone over christmas break... which really pisses me off. i saw jilly for like 3 hours, and i didnt even get to see etta at all which i absolutely hate. but this is the hole i dug and these are the consequences that i have while im trying to pull myself out of it. i did get to see dom in nyc like the only day i was off in all of december, which was wonderful bc i miss her being a part of my life SOOO much. and i went to ramapo to visit tor 2 weekends ago which was nice to get outta south jersey but kinda odd bc it brought back all of my memories from gov school (it was at ramapo) and got me all nostalgic/sentimental. and this past weekend kait and i went to visit alli at ktown which again was nice to get outta south jersey esp bc they had snow but it was hard too. its like a catch 22. when im here i dont wanna be bc i have no one here and too much time to overthink life. but when i go visit people at college, i get all mopey bc of what i screwed myself out of. and ill never have that again. even when i go back to a 4 year school and finally escape the stupidity that is the kids at accc... its never gonna be like that. i wont be living in the dorms, ill be commuting. at bu i made all of my friends from my dorm and drama. its gonna be so strange. plus i wont be able to have late night movies and such with people bc i wont be living with them. *sigh*
speaking of college, ive figured out what i hope is gonna be my plan for this year. my goal is to finish accc by the end of this year so i can start rowan for spring semester 08. its so weird saying that ill be starting at a college the year i was supposed to graduate but ya know such is life. im still at both the press and rams head for now. my plan is to stay at the press through the summer bc thats when we make our big money and then quit for the fall. im taking 3 classes now and working on getting my ochs ap credits and bu credits transferred. hopefully with all those plus the fall and winter term classes ill have enough credits to get my associates finished. ill work both jobs (and maybe a day or two at angelos) this summer and save enough money to get my mortgage paid off through the rest of the year, and somehow manage to squeeze in some classes. then ill go to accc full time and overload in the fall to finish up while keeping rams head on to pay for my utilities. there are of course more than a few snags in this plan. the first problem is that the accc communications degree has 2 tracks: news writing or creative writing. both of them have 2 courses that must be taken in a 1-2 sequence but i couldnt manage to get either on of the first courses this semester and they prob wont be offered for summer. so i might hafta take the first one in the fall, and then the second in the spring. but im hoping that maybe ill be able to finish up accc while starting rowan instead of having to delay it another full semester. then theres the prob of convincing rowan to let me in. i mean i am doing well at accc but my bu gpa is hideous so who knows. and if i dont get into rowan, i have no clue where im gonna go. stockton doesnt really have anything of a comm program and to commute any further than that is insanity. and theres a rumor around that accc will only take up to 6 of my 15 ap credits... at which point ill prob slit my wrists bc ill hafta retake calc, chem and history. so cross your fingers my plan goes nice and easy.
getting accc done is actually the first of my new years resolutions. the other two are to be more high maintenance/care about my appearance (which has gone better than expected considering my track record) and to stop liking boys who already have girls (which isnt as easy as it should be). so well see how all that goes.
so thats life for the past 3 months... ill prob update more bc it seems that once i start with lj again i get on a kick. hope everyone else is doing well. loveandmissyoualways. <3<3<3<3
