I'm optimistic. I love life, I love where I'm at, I love my family and my friends and may amazing boyfriend. Yeah there's a few things that I'm not happy about, mostly my weight seeing as I'm still a little heavier than I'd like to be and I'm far away from Roger, but those are dealable and totally fixable. Roger's not even that far away, and already we get to see each other more and it's great. I'm doing well in classes so far, I have a great feeling about this semester. I'm just happy. There have been some sad and scary moments but they've helped me gain the perspective that I needed to keep my life and mind on track. The weather has been beautiful and life looks good.
I did however have a really scary moment today with Liz. Okay so not going to lie, we were going to an adult store in hempstead. We're both 18 and it is completely legal for us to want to do so and I have never been to such a store. Life is about experiences and boy was today full of them. Anyway I digress. We go into Hempstead to go to Xpressions and end of finding its in the heart of the GHETTO! I'm already getting bad vibes from this whole thing, I was always told never to go past the school into Hempstead, now I know why. So we pass the place and go down a not lit street and turn around, to see two men sprinting through a parking lot, followed closely by a red Honda Civic. Bad sign number one. So Liz and I are completely aware of this and are already freaking out, we turn around and theres a bunch of randoms walking towards us in the dark. We swerved around. We park in front of the store but across the street and see 3 hispanic males walking down the street, giving us the eye. Not the outsiders eye but the "I want to tap that eye". Every girl hates that stare, and I can't wait for the day that every pig on earth realizes that and then kills themselves. Anyway so they stop in front of Xpressions obviously knowing that Liz and I are going in there and hang in the front for us. Liz and I stand on the street waiting for them to leave, not making eye contact, as they begin to yell at us in spanish and make gestures towards us. It was actually really scary having 3 men yell at you, not knowing what it meant, but knowing that it was definately obscene. After about a minute we are so scared that we leave, like we gunned it out of there. The events have scared us so much that we cant stop our frightened laughter. We stop at a stop light and try to catch our breath when I feel the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. I look to my right and theres an old hispanic man in a window, staring and smiling at me creepily, and the waves. I was so scared I screamed. Inside of Liz's car, I screamed for dear life. I scared the crap out of life, she thought theres was a murderer outside, but it was just a potential rapist. Once again we gunned it as soon as we could and went and got coffee and chocolate. Twas quite the scary events. In retrospect, it was hilarious. But I never want to fear for my life like that again.
I don't know if any other exciting events have really happened to me lately aside from going to a monster truck show on taurday and having Roger stay over one saturday night but I think thats about it.
It's a full moon tonight. It's really beautiful. All these years and I'm still a space cadet. I tried to take pictures but I still cant figure out how to change the exposure on my camera. I really need to get on top of that so I can take night shots, stupid camera.
My arm won't stop twitching. I don't know why and it really sucks. BLLLAAAHHHHHHH
I miss Roger. I love him more than words can really describe. Like I don't know what I did to finally find a guy so great and caring and funny and just amazing as him, but I'm glad it happened. Like he even remembered that I needed headphones. I can't even remember that!! He just makes me happy end of story.
Ok me sleepy
Cheers
