*fall into these arms of mine and i'll catch you, everytime*
i haven't posted in probably 4 or 5 months now and just feel like i need to rant/share/update. maybe because writing in LJ is so relaxing [like a bubble bath without the water and the bubbles lol].
I finished my first semester of my Sophomore [well now technically Junior] year of college. and I hate seeing my college years slip away so quickly. I absolutely love my townhouse and my roommate and all the friends i hang out with--i cannot say the same about all of my classes lol but at least i had an improved GPA from last year :) I'm looking forward to next semester just because right now i'm so bored sitting at home with nothing to do. i miss blacksburg and all the excitement and being around people every single day. and of course i miss the boy.
that's another story: back in august i was hanging out with jason [walker] and his roommates armour and fields every day. just like last year. but then after a few weeks of school we all kind of drifted apart. no one knows really what happened but jason and i are no longer as close as we were last year. and we were tight. so oh well, i guess things just kind of happen that way. well anyway, i also met a lot of new people in my classes this year. one person in particular--daniel stalcup. lol i met him the second day of historical methods. his phone rang during class and an old garth brooks song was his ringtone. he piped up in a real thick southern accent "sorry sir. it wont happen again". i kind of laughed a little because i had not heard a country accent in a while and i smiled at him. it was nice. [i thought to myself, "i ahve met the man of my dreams"]. no kidding--he was tall, handsome and countr. whoo! then after class he caught up with me and we chatted. he was telling me that he's a leader in the CORPS of cadets and his family was from georgia but he lives in northern va. yeah, i was actually approached by a guy and made small talk. then he asked me to lunch. haha again. i was like "what?! this can't be happening" to myself. well i enjoyed getting to know him over the next few weeks and then out of the blue he had a girlfiend?!?! but he still came to me with any problems they were having [and they had a lot. she sounded so mean and whatever he was spending time with me lol]. well finally in November they broke up and he and i started hanging out. i got to know him a lot better and we've become VERY close. he's probably the closest guy figure in my life right now. but it's awesome how alike we are. and we're both interested but not official yet ya know. ehh, he doesnt want me to be the rebound girl and we are taking things slow. so to say the least---its confusing but i guess we've got it sorted out and we understand it lol. i didn't mention that he's a cowboy. yeah, a legit cowboy who rides bulls and wears boots/buckles and a hat all the time. and he's so sweet. very traditional southern gentleman which is just what i need :)
on another note--we will see how this thing with daniel pans out----but i'm really hoping it progresses. we are going to a monster truck show for valentines day [lol, redneck i know]. and the darius rucker concert at tech in jan. and he is riding bulls in a PBR event in march her ein roanoke. so he asked me to go support him [lol, can you see me on tv holding a sign that says "I ♥ a bull rider" haha.
anyway, i spend most of my time with him and i'm not complaining. i have a solid group of friends [one of which owns a 3 story brand new house and a BMW X5 that likes to go out to dinner often lol]. he also has a lot of sweet parties...anyway, group of friends is pretty solid. and so far a pretty solid gentleman friend in my life :) lol. i will admit i sort of dropped out of CRU. idk i guess after the jason fallout i never seemed to wanna go this semester. and i just figure i can still believe in God without simply going to a meeting once a week [most of which was just social time and for show, to be honest]. ehh, i guess my views changed a bit over the course of the summer. but i really can't see myself doin anything other than hangout with the cowboy lol.
that's my update. i've got all kinds of problems not mentioned here--but i guess getting on a rant about a boy outweighed those other problems [all of which are medical, i will say that]. umm peace.
