almost done!

agh... SO close to tasting summer =]

One more day of reg. class... then back to cascade to take home a car-load of my stuff (I have NO IDEA where all this extra JUNK came from... it only took TWO carloads to get it here, and so far its taken two to bring home and thats not even half!)

I'm supposed to head to sami's birthday party (I decided I couldn't be THAT big of a bitch to miss her BIRTHDAY party) .... however, I'm catching a nasty cold... HOPEFULLY ITS NOT THE SWINE FLU! ;) ... and I have a TERRIBLE eye infection, and the docs told me to STAY AWAY from any sort of smoke...
WELL THAT IS JUST SWELL because any party that sami is to ever throw involves massive MASSIVE amounts of cigarette smoke! its unbearable to deal with NORMALLY, but having an EYE INFECTION on top of being SICK... that just takes the cake... and I REALLY don't want to have to miss out on finals

thats my luck, ladies and gents! lol... so I've decided that I'm going to make an APPEARANCE... hopefully she's not too offended by that, but it IS Sami... you never know how she will react.

speaking of luck...
here's a FUN one... lol

so on Sunday, the Tornado sirens went off.... WHILE I WAS IN THE SHOWER!!! and guess what? LAURA COULDN'T HEAR THEM, because some girls who were listening to the radio in the bathroom felt it necessary to turn the radio volume ALL the way up to hear the warning on the radio, eliminating ANY sound from anywhere else in the building because when they left, they just left the radio turned all the way up
SO I finish my shower, walk out into the hallway... finding it odd that its EXTRA quiet, and when i get to my room ryan is standing right next to the door waiting for me....
GRR I was so mad... then i just decided to stay up in my room because the sirens were no longer going off.

but I'm JUST SAYIN... maybe people should check the bathrooms when the sirens go off... like OH I don't know the RA?!?!?!?!?!
she hates me, she'd probably just let me die anyway, lol.



Anyways... I REALLY should get back to my homework... Only two papers left to write for the year.... and for some reason i'm having HUGE issues summing up the motivation to write them....

rah! I forgot all about blogging... I've been uber busy!

I'm extra exhausted... I've had so much homework today, I never have a break!

saw carol gilligan speak today... very intersting. It felt amazing to be in the presence of such an influential person. Makes me aspire to achieve what she has in psychology, though its doubtful.

Got in another fight with sami. More and more it seems like its hard to stay friends with someone like her... I've moved forward so much, and she seems to not move at all, which is sad. Its hard to watch such a good friend throw their life away, she focuses on that instant gratification, not on future consequences... maybe one day she'll learn. She's academically even smarter than me, if she'd only apply her skills and have a little ambition she could go places...

we can only hope.

But I can't afford to surround myself with that anymore, it makes me feel so sad for them... no matter what I say she doesn't listen, she'll always do her own thing.

I know she hears me and it all sinks in... she just doesn't want to let go of her pride.

maybe when I have my PhD she'll take me seriously;) haha.

I just can't wait to get to that point in my life where I can help people like her succeed, I'll always be chasing that satisfaction, she'll always be in the back of my mind.
The most rewarding feeling for me is creating a positive change in someone's life, or giving them the skills, knowledge, and that extra push to turn their lives around...


however its always a little bittersweet when she has these moments of breakdown... it sounds terrible but not having to deal with her for a while is nice, her life is one big world of stress... I think my blood pressure rises when I have to deal with her, haha. But her being my last source of adolescent drama, its nice to not have to hear about it for a while... as terrible as that sounds.

I'm not a bad friend, I swear... haha.

but it wouldn't be right of me to support her bad decisions, she knows that... somewhere inside of her I KNOW she knows that. she's really not as dumb as she likes to come off.



anyway... thats the current dramz.... there's really much more going on, but quite frankly I'm a little tired and its nice to vent on the negative =] but the positive far outweights in my life these days.... I am blessed!

until my next blurrrb. I'm off to get ready to go out! only two more weekends left!!!
