It has been quite a long time since I wrote on this blog. For a while, I thought I would just abandon it. That was until I needed to find a link to a food blog I liked reading. One I haven't been too in a while, because I didn't write on my blog for a while. Obviously I wasn't paying attention to that blog, otherwise I would have known its name.
I'm back though. I think I'll start keeping up with it again. Why not? I've been keeping some of my thoughts more private, in a journal I started after getting engaged. That one was intended to document the planning process and the things going on in my life during the time I'm engaged. I have only filled half of it so far, so I may end up writing into our first year of marriage.
The silly part of me hopes we make it to the first year anniversary. You know...December 2012 is only a few months after we get married. If (and when) we do, I have plans for 2013. There are a few places that I need/would like to go. The most important...the HARRY POTTER THEME PARK!
Say what you will, but I love Harry Potter. I was excited, and really sad about the last movie. I am happy that I stuck through missing my usual 7.5 hours of sleep to re-watch all the movies with Rebecca and Angela before watching the 12:20am show last week. I've read the books and loved the books, so the movie did lack details, but, it was REALLY well done. The acting was great and the story (for one who did not read the books) was well rounded for the close.
Life will go on, and so will my random thoughts on this site.

Super sucky.
You know...I know finding a job isn't supposed to be easy...unless your name is Rebecca and you rule at life!, but I really didn't think that the jobs I applied for would ALL fall through.
No, it's not that they don't want to interview me...well, that's partially it. The jobs I have applied for this year have either been cancelled, or filled internally.
This whole job hunt thing SUCKS ASS!
I have faith that the right opportunity will come along and it will not be a job that I settle for. I do NOT intend on settling for another job! DAMN IT!
Where is my career headed...hmm....

Iowa State?!
That's the question on every Longhorn fan's mind. It was funny when I told that to my Tech buddies when they lost to IOWA STATE?, but now that it's a reality for us...I'm just shaking my head in shame!
When those bud light girls asked us to pick a winner between Texas vs. UCLA, it was a no brainer...woohoo we're winning free stuff...type of selection. TEXAS for the win. How could we have lost so badly? If Texas vs. Iowa State was right after that one, it would have been harder to choose. Coming off of a pretty fantastic win against Nebraska...the answer seemed obvious again...Texas, baby!! WRONG! WHAT HAPPENED?!?!?!? How could Iowa State be such a challenge?!?! Why did we not play the way we did toward the end of the 4th quarter, the whole time?
Pretty much, I'm embarrassed about the Iowa State loss, because there was no GOOD thing to point out. Well...I guess the only GOOD thing is that we didn't lose by as much as we did to UCLA which was TRULY embarrassing.
Oh yeah...it also sucks that we could have won, had we not lost so many opportunities in the red zone! Interception cost us a freaking TD and...have we EVER missed a field goal before?!?!? SHEESH...there went 10 points!

Makes me wanna die...
This is my take on the UT football season thus far. WHO ARE WE?!?!?!?
For the first time in 10 years we are un-ranked, then I read this:
It makes me want to punch someone in the face. Our boys need to step up in a BIG WAY when we play Nebraska on the 16th. Mack Brown does not deserve the embarrassment of retarded plays called by the coaching staff and retarded penalties picked up by the players!
Vs. Rice...should have blown them away. If the damn play don't work...FIX IT!
Vs. Wyoming...Who the hell is Wyoming anyway?? Some improvements since Rice, especially from Gilbert.
Vs. Tech...a win is a win, and it was sweet considering it was Tech. However...nothing was impressive. THAT many turnovers...REALLY!?!??!?!
Vs. UCLA...what can really be said other than...for the first time in a long time, no fan of the Longhorn football team could be proud. EVERYONE knew that it was a HORRIBLE game. I hope Mack sacrificed something.
Vs. OU. You know what...no one expected us to win. However, I saw improvement and there was definitely a MUCH better gain of yards. There were stupid mistakes. STUPID opportunities were missed. It's depressing to lose, but I'm not as embarrassed about it as I was with the loss against UCLA. "We obviously made too many mistakes and too many penalties," Brown said. "We had entirely too many and they were game changers."
After 162 weeks ranked...we are no longer in the top 25 in college football. You know what, I didn't think we'd be great this season. Did I think we would suck this bad?! NO!
Come on boys, I will never stop being a proud longhorn, but...EARN the pride that your fans have! Live up to the 10 years before you!
For the first time in 10 years we are un-ranked, then I read this:
The Longhorns have lost two games in a row, after they were stunned by UCLA 34-12 in Austin last week. Texas plays at Nebraska on Oct. 16, when it will try to avoid its first three-game losing streak since 1999 -- Brown's second season at the school.

I'm bored. Usually about now I'd be looking forward to seeing Jay, or I'd already be with him. This is the first weekend after the past 6 or so that I'm not seeing him. I'm sad! *tear* He's in the field right now, so it's not like he's avaialbe to be seen. That's tough. For those of you who don't know....Jay ahem..Sgt. Jay Ordway is currently in the US army stationed at Ft. Hood. He's my guy. When he's in the field, he's toughing it out doing war simulations. I'm so proud of what he does. He works so hard and so long. He doesn't cease to impress me with the stuff he has to do. I've seen him do one handed push ups...SEXY!!! lol! Let's see, I met him on super bowl weekend this year. It's fun being around him. He's an interesting person. He makes me laugh, you gotta appreciate that. Let's see, he's from Michigan, so he has a little accent, and says pop. soo cute! :) hahaha, I'm sure he'd LOVE that I'm talking about him on this thing. Eh, what else can I be doing exactly. If I'm not with him right now, I might as well think about him, and talk about him! right?!
Anyway, I've said a lot about my bf, what else is going on in my life. Last night, went out with my roommate and some of her friends. I had a CRAZY week, going nonstop since Monday, so as soon as I was done failing my Pchem test yesterday morning, and as soon as Geostats was over...I got back to my apt and just chilled. Ahjin came home not much later and we just hung out, had a beer, and then went to beverage bust. Too bad they ran out of beer there, as soon as we got there, not that I was gonna have any, but...it just made us leave sooner. We did have to meet for drinks and food though. So, becker, shaloub and I headed out. Baby A's is cool. Watch out for them purple margaritas, right Ahjin...*wink wink* Then, we saw Sin City at the Alamo. That's an awesome movie. It's totally different...I LIKED IT! I recommend it to all. :) Hmm..what else shall I mention on my little ranting thing. I'm allowed to just talk and talk right?!
Hmm...I'm just sitting here, waiting for my roomate to come home. Yeah, my roommate, Ahjin Kim. I've known her since we were juniors at good ole James E. Taylor High School in Katy, TX. Yeah baby. She's one of my best friends. If you ever find yourself around us, I don't expect you to understand why we're just cracking up. It's what we do. What are people from Holland called?! HOLLAS?! yess..we thought that one all on our own. We get food drunk alll the time, it's like being drunk, but after you've eaten. Yup yup, she's at work right now, and I'm not at the gym. argh.
Too bad the gym is closed right now, and campus is packed, b/c now you all get to read about my oh so exciting life... If it's one thing I can do, it's talk and talk and talk. Alas, I don't want to bore you, and I don't know what else to say either. Since I'm always at a computer it seems...I shall be on this thing quite a bit. One more thing or me to waste my time with...EXCELLENT.
oh yeah...YOUR MOM GOES TO COLLEGE!

HOLY SMOKES...today is WEIRD. I woke up really tired, and really late. I know what time I'm supposed to wake up, but I felt like I didn't need to wake up. I thought five mins would be enough for me to wake up, get something to wear, shower, brush my teeth, put on shoes, and leave to catch the bus...hmm, didn't work out like that. So, my day started out like that, not that it hasn't started out like that before. I actually started hw in the middle of the day, during my free time. WOAH!!! LOL, nah, I've been more responsible with the whole being produtive thing. Although, I did blow off an assignment due today..if I do well, it'll be thanks to BS and anne! :)
Anywho, I got home and saw a note on the INSIDE of my door, totally disregarded it and passed out for 20 mins which felt like forever, when my roommate came home and told me what the notice on the INSIDE of the door said. Had I not blown it off, I would have seen that our management is gonna be unhappy with us!!! SO that was weird. Then, I went to work, and was exactly on time, but I something was different, my boss' car wasn't in the drive way. I figured he might be gone but his son, the person I was there to tutor, was. I knocked on the door, rang the bell for about five mins and sat outside for about 20 before I figured they're not gonna be home anytime soon. That's the first time that's happened, and it sucks that it took over an hour of my day.
On the way back from a trip that I didn't need to make, I was doing 80 on mopac, a 65speed limit road, and TOTALLY nearly got pulled over. My heart raced, but I was smiling at the sucker RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME that the cop flickerd his lights on for. I thought it was me at first, but then I saw that it wasn't, so..PHEW!!!
Eh, my day's been weird, not getting a ticket made me a bit happier and not as mad about going all the way to the burbs for nothing. I'm gonna get compensated for that anyway, so it's all good.
I still miss my SGT, so that's about the only thing right now that I have to be bummed about. I can't wait to see him again, or even talk to him. :)
I've been making some huge life changes lately, and he's smack in the middle of it. That makes me happy, but sad at the same time. It's a long story...but...that's my life!

I went shopping today..wooo! Hahaha the woo is more because I don't have to wear the same clothes anymore, not cause I got to go to the mall or anything. As usual, I got all I needed in like half an hour. That's the way to shop! I've shopped with guys that take longer than that. I can't go shopping with my brother because he takes FOREVER! I'm just not a shopper. Call me a dude..it'd be a compliment! HAHA.
I bought a shirt with PINK in it...I don't like pink! My roommate made me buy it. hahahaha. She also made me buy a pink shirt..AHHHH!! I can't believe it! I swear, it looked more orangy/red in the store..what have I done! grrrr. I might not wear that too much then! :)
I don't know why I'm even talking about my shopping experience..can you say BORED?!
I miss my Sgt. One more day til I get to talk to him. He's coming back tomorrow from the field..hooray. Too bad he's gonna be so tired. I hope he has some moment to talk to his "bunny." hehe. Yeah, I don't like it, but..he's sweet. For such a big macho man, he's really sweet. AWWWW!!!
My 10oclock class was cancelled today, so I automatically assumed I'd be able to get some decent rest last night...did that happen?! NOOooOO STUPID management and they're STUPID policies had me up at 8:15am! earlier than I wake up any other day of the week...even though I need to on T and TH. That didn't make me too happy. I'm soo tired right now, but I have to run tonight I HAVE to. I might not though. My roommate is taking a nap..:-\ I'd feel badly waking her.
Do de do de do....I just figured I'd add to this thing...it'd be like me talking randomly to myself! ha! :) ENJOY.

I am TOTALLY going to live on the lake in austin with a boat, and it'll be AWESOME. ALLAN GREEN....you're my hero! hahaha, I've just been told that it is totally possible for me to be in the petroleum industry AND have that life. OHHHH yeah buddy, I'm gonna be a happy camper! :)
Public - 11:01 PM - 1 view - add eprops - add comments - edit it - email it - fix language
OHHHHH man, I want a boat! That's my new goal in life, is to have a boat, and have a niiiiiice house on the water. I went out on Lake Travis yesterday with my sister in law, and her family, and ohhh myyy gooodness. I was drooling for the water. I LOVE water. I hadn't been out on water in soo long, and my heart was filled with GLEE being out on the water. Regardless of how dark I knew I was getting...I just LOVED being out there. Getting sprayed as we sped along so effortlessly above the wtaer. The sun, the waves, the people...it was AWESOME!!! I could do that every weekend. HAHAH, ok ok, I'm sure you get the idea, but...yeah, I had a blast yesterday for a few hours. It was something different, and boy was I giddy.
Friday night...ALSO very different. Them dekes sure know how to throw a party. So, my roommate, kelsey, and I went to the DKE party on Friday night, and we were only there for about an hour or maybe less, and then party really took an interesting turn. As we headed downstairs from being upstairs, only a short while, I saw this girl running into the bathroom, and I thought she was about to puke up a storm...that wasn't so. I walked into the room where she had just been, and it smelled really strongly of burnt hair and flesh. YEAH...she just got burned by the flaming dr. peppers that were being served. She wasn't the only one. Two girls got second degree burns that night. Well, when that happened, the party cleared out fast, and the deke that invited us there, decided to take a change of scenery, so we just hopped over to A Hole in the Wall. That was fun times as well. My roommate, she knows how to have some fun. She gets guys over to talk to us. We met two doods that just made the night a little funner. We didn't get back hom till close to 5. I've slept so few hour the past two nights that my throat is now scratchy, which only means one thing for my CRAPPY immune system!!! I've been sick soooo much this semester, it's sickening!
Eh, that's about all I feel like saying right now. I'll be back...I'm bored a LOT!. :)

I'm sick....AGAIN!!!! I think in the past 3 months, I've been sick for about 2 of them! It's weird. I used to never get sick. This is what you get when you don't work out! ARGH! I don't work out, I don't eat properly, and sometimes my sleep schedule is NOT what it should be. That's what triggered it this weekend. I didn't sleep very much. Now, all I want to do is make up for it. I skipped one class this week. It was like having a three day weekend, since one class got cancelled and I skipped the other. :) That helped, too bad I had work to do, that sucked.
I'm done with my Pchem lab! woohoo, that just leaves geostats hw due tomorrow. When that's done..I'll be happy. I should be relatively busy today, but I have another hour and a half break to get started on Geostats...wow! I'm so productive it's crazy!
I'm gonna be able to see my sgt. this weekend! I can't wait. I haven't seen him in three weeks!!!! That't nuts. I miss him so much that he's the only one that can call me an hour after I fall asleep at 2:30 in the morning, and talk to me for an hour and a half. He's the only one that can call back at 6:30. I would have answerd the phone that time, but I was completely out, and just didn't hear it. He's also the ONLY one allowed to wake me up before 8am with a phone call. If anyone else tries it..I'll ignore the call, or answer it and say I'll call back later! :) Hey, those are the benifits of being with me! hahaha.
Yeah, so.....everytime Jay calls me, it's at times that shocks me. I'm always glad that he calls, and I'm like, hey, if he's calling me...he can be talking to me right now. Well, the other night...he should NOT have called me. I feel badly, he got into some trouble. He ended up getting to work late...NOT GOOD! GRRREAT...now if he calls me that late, not only does he wake me up, but I'll have to ignore the call.
Lalalalallala. Does anyone actually read this thing?! Eh, what if they don't, at least I have somwhere to blab!
Hmmm....what else is worth mentioning?! OHHHHHHHHHHH YEAH!!!! I'm getting baptized on Sunday!!!!!! This is something I'm sooo excited about. It's a HUGE step in my life....a HUGE deal to me. I'm extremely happy that I have Christ is my life. With out Him, I'd be so miserable. There have been times where I've been miserable but only got out of it because of Him. It's an amazing feeling to please him and to be blessed. Yeah, that's some big news that I'd like to share. When the pastor asks me why I'm doing it...I'm going to say "To publicly declare my love for the Lord and to obey His command" Ain't that the truth! woohoo, ok ok, that's about it
I'm gonna go now, I'll be back, don't worry..I know you are! :)

Well gee whizz.. I'm rather pissed at the moment. This week was pretty busy. I was FREAKING out to the point of puking on Monday night about a test on Tuesday morning. The test, I did it...but I know I still failed it. Quite frankly, that teacher pisses me off!!! Regardless...the test didn't make me feel like puking when I was done. It could have been a WHOLE lot worse.
Wednesday...I was on campus at 10am-12pm. I came home and did more work til I realized I was doing crap with my hw, and had to go to bed. I went to the stupid 930 class, and I finally left campus at 6pm. Yeah...long days, doing lot of stuff during the day too!!
So today, instead of using my free time to start working on something due next Tuesday, I helped my friend study for a test she had to make up as a way for me to not have to think. Anyway..today was pretty chill, and I came home and just hung out with Ahjin. It's what we do, sit around, chill, lie around, chill, talk, sleep, not much really, but it's better than the BUSY week I've had.
So, I was sorta hoping Jay would call me in the evening, esp around 9. Did he? NO! I never let a message saying why I called him two times in a row today. NOT THAT I CALLED TWO TIMES ON PURPOSE, EXPECTING HIM TO TALK TO ME! So, I called him, and he was asleep. Poor kid works hard, and is just so tired when he gets home that he wants to chill. Who am I to deny him of that. When I'm tired, I'm tired too. BUT, IF HE THINKS I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE TO BE TIRED AND BUSY...HE'S GOT ANOTHER THING COMING! Ok, so that's why I'm mad at the moment. I have every right to be, since I wasn't even informed in the slightest that nothing was gonna happen with us tonight! whatever, I'm over it...I'll be over it! ahh, hahaha, I'm writing about it, and I seem like i'm not over it, but the truth is...we just have to wait and see how much more pissed I can get! :) I'm an understanding person, and expect busy people to do what they need to do, but don't ever assume I don't understand. GOT IT?! Anyway, since I'm not really mad at the moment...I'm gonna stop writing. I am bored, but..there isn't anything I can do about it. I might just go to bed soon. I guess I'll talk later, bye.
Sunday, April 24, 2005
So...PMDD SUCKS! hahaha, I've diagnosed myself with this. It wasn't really Jay's fault for not calling me. I really didn't need to be that angry about it, but I blame the disease! Too bad I woke up on Saturday morning to be pissed off again! :-\ Oh well, I got over it when I finally got to see Jay on Saturday night.
Instead of being alone in my apartment for the second night in a row, I got to see my boy. I was happy to be with him and totally forgot about everything else. I can't stay mad at someone who makes me laugh. He understands that I had every right to be mad, but, I do feel like a total PMSsy chick for it! LOL. I'm capable of admitting to that too. However, the second someone else uses that against me...they'll be in trouble. :)
Today was good. I went to church, had a satisfying lunch(satisfied a craving) and lay around for a while, took a nap, woke up, ate again, and did my hw. I got done with my hw before 10, that was weird, esp since I started it like at 8. This week is gonna be relatively light. As soon as I finish my stupid geo lab due tuesday, which I know is gonna be a pain, and will piss me off, I'll be able to start studying for Fluid Flow. I hope I do well on that test...keep my decent grade. I might even be productive and start the stuff that's due next week! =-o Well..that's my goal at least.
I don't have much to say, and I might as well get to bed early tonight. Toodles

I'm in Katy, doing alllllll my laundry! It's crazy, I just brought dirty laundry with me and it filled two baskets and a duffel bag! yeah...lots of clothes.
I'm done with my FOURTH year at UT!! It's crazy that four years have gone by sooo quickly. I feel like just yesterday I started as a lil freshman. Too bad I'm not graduating in a week. It's weird seeing all my friends that I graduated with in HS graduating college. I don't think it would be such a big deal if I hadn't graduated with them. Oh well, good luck to them. I look forward to it NEXT year. I don't even feel like I'm done for the semester. Three of my grades are out, and so far...not too bad. I'm disappointed in not being able to pull up two B's to A's, but...I'll take them, as long as my last grade doesn't screw me! One of my classes...BIG SHOCKER! I'm relieved that it wasn't a worse outcome.
I got done with my last final at 10pm on Saturday night but felt NO sense of relief for being done because that final realllly screwed me! Man, that prof...he's soooo not cool! lol.
Aww...Allan's graduating this sememester...He's leaving me! That's actually kinda sad. Having at least one class with him for the past year an a half, and knowing him since junior year of high school...weird that he won't be around anymore!
ahh, I'm not in the mood to keep typing right now...be back later

Merry Christmas everyone!! :) I can't believe the year is almost over. Just one more week! This year definitely has been a life altering one for me. A lot of important things have happened to me this year. I've changed a lot about the way I think (those of you who have been around me a lot lately know how...the whole love thing)
The most important person in my life right now, I'd have to say, is Chris. He means a lot to me, and I'm so happy to say that. Yeah, that's one of the ways I've changed this year. I've met a guy that treats me so well, and loves me as much as I love him.
I'm a happy little camper. I'm just hoping for a job this coming semester. I'll be graduating in MAY!! That's nuts. My college career is coming to an end. Hopefully it will be a successful ending. If I get a job in Houston, I'll consider it to be successful.
I'm excited to go to Boston again!!! I loved it the last time I went, back in 2003 I think. Anyway, it was great. I went during the summer last time, so I'm certainly looking forward to going during the winter now. It will be the first time I'm away from my parents for a new year! I CAN'T WAIT!!! It'll be fun and exciting. My brother has asked some of his friends, who I happen to be friends with as well, to join us for my birthday, so that'll be cool. I'm really excited, b/c I get to see a lot of cool places, and eat a lot of good food. Hopefully I can get to know my new "sister"-in-law. I hardly do know her. I haven't really taken the time to know her though! Oh well, she should take some time to get to know me too!!! That's only how it should work, I think! :)
Anyway, I guess I'll write more on this thing later. I have a bit of time. I'll take breaks in between studying for a Spanish test that I'll be taking as soon as I get back to school. Yeah, sucks that I have to be studying over the break. Oh well, it gives me something to do.
Have a good Chrismas and Happy New Year.

Jay Ordway is currently in the US army stationed at Ft. Hood. He's my guy. When he's in the field, he's toughing it out doing war simulations. I'm so proud of what he does. He works so hard and so long. He doesn't cease to impress me with the stuff he has to do. I've seen him do one handed push ups...SEXY!!! lol! Let's see, I met him on super bowl weekend this year. It's fun being around him. He's an interesting person. He makes me laugh, you gotta appreciate that. Let's see, he's from Michigan, so he has a little accent, and says pop. soo cute! :) hahaha, I'm sure he'd LOVE that I'm talking about him on this thing. Eh, what else can I be doing exactly. If I'm not with him right now, I might as well think about him, and talk about him! right?!
Anyway, I've said a lot about my bf, what else is going on in my life. Last night, went out with my roommate and some of her friends. I had a CRAZY week, going nonstop since Monday, so as soon as I was done failing my Pchem test yesterday morning, and as soon as Geostats was over...I got back to my apt and just chilled. Ahjin came home not much later and we just hung out, had a beer, and then went to beverage bust. Too bad they ran out of beer there, as soon as we got there, not that I was gonna have any, but...it just made us leave sooner. We did have to meet for drinks and food though. So, becker, shaloub and I headed out. Baby A's is cool. Watch out for them purple margaritas, right Ahjin...*wink wink* Then, we saw Sin City at the Alamo. That's an awesome movie. It's totally different...I LIKED IT! I recommend it to all. :) Hmm..what else shall I mention on my little ranting thing. I'm allowed to just talk and talk right?!
Hmm...I'm just sitting here, waiting for my roomate to come home. Yeah, my roommate, Ahjin Kim. I've known her since we were juniors at good ole James E. Taylor High School in Katy, TX. Yeah baby. She's one of my best friends. If you ever find yourself around us, I don't expect you to understand why we're just cracking up. It's what we do. What are people from Holland called?! HOLLAS?! yess..we thought that one all on our own. We get food drunk alll the time, it's like being drunk, but after you've eaten. Yup yup, she's at work right now, and I'm not at the gym. argh.
Too bad the gym is closed right now, and campus is packed, b/c now you all get to read about my oh so exciting life... If it's one thing I can do, it's talk and talk and talk. Alas, I don't want to bore you, and I don't know what else to say either. Since I'm always at a computer it seems...I shall be on this thing quite a bit. One more thing or me to waste my time with...EXCELLENT.
oh yeah...YOUR MOM GOES TO COLLEGE!

HOLY SMOKES...today is WEIRD. I woke up really tired, and really late. I know what time I'm supposed to wake up, but I felt like I didn't need to wake up. I thought five mins would be enough for me to wake up, get something to wear, shower, brush my teeth, put on shoes, and leave to catch the bus...hmm, didn't work out like that. So, my day started out like that, not that it hasn't started out like that before. I actually started hw in the middle of the day, during my free time. WOAH!!! LOL, nah, I've been more responsible with the whole being produtive thing. Although, I did blow off an assignment due today..if I do well, it'll be thanks to BS and anne! :)
Anywho, I got home and saw a note on the INSIDE of my door, totally disregarded it and passed out for 20 mins which felt like forever, when my roommate came home and told me what the notice on the INSIDE of the door said. Had I not blown it off, I would have seen that our management is gonna be unhappy with us!!! SO that was weird. Then, I went to work, and was exactly on time, but I something was different, my boss' car wasn't in the drive way. I figured he might be gone but his son, the person I was there to tutor, was. I knocked on the door, rang the bell for about five mins and sat outside for about 20 before I figured they're not gonna be home anytime soon. That's the first time that's happened, and it sucks that it took over an hour of my day.
On the way back from a trip that I didn't need to make, I was doing 80 on mopac, a 65speed limit road, and TOTALLY nearly got pulled over. My heart raced, but I was smiling at the sucker RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME that the cop flickerd his lights on for. I thought it was me at first, but then I saw that it wasn't, so..PHEW!!!
Eh, my day's been weird, not getting a ticket made me a bit happier and not as mad about going all the way to the burbs for nothing. I'm gonna get compensated for that anyway, so it's all good.
I still miss my SGT, so that's about the only thing right now that I have to be bummed about. I can't wait to see him again, or even talk to him. :)
I've been making some huge life changes lately, and he's smack in the middle of it. That makes me happy, but sad at the same time. It's a long story...but...that's my life!

I went shopping today..wooo! Hahaha the woo is more because I don't have to wear the same clothes anymore, not cause I got to go to the mall or anything. As usual, I got all I needed in like half an hour. That's the way to shop! I've shopped with guys that take longer than that. I can't go shopping with my brother because he takes FOREVER! I'm just not a shopper. Call me a dude..it'd be a compliment! HAHA.
I bought a shirt with PINK in it...I don't like pink! My roommate made me buy it. hahahaha. She also made me buy a pink shirt..AHHHH!! I can't believe it! I swear, it looked more orangy/red in the store..what have I done! grrrr. I might not wear that too much then! :)
I don't know why I'm even talking about my shopping experience..can you say BORED?!
I miss my Sgt. One more day til I get to talk to him. He's coming back tomorrow from the field..hooray. Too bad he's gonna be so tired. I hope he has some moment to talk to his "bunny." hehe. Yeah, I don't like it, but..he's sweet. For such a big macho man, he's really sweet. AWWWW!!!
My 10oclock class was cancelled today, so I automatically assumed I'd be able to get some decent rest last night...did that happen?! NOOooOO STUPID management and they're STUPID policies had me up at 8:15am! earlier than I wake up any other day of the week...even though I need to on T and TH. That didn't make me too happy. I'm soo tired right now, but I have to run tonight I HAVE to. I might not though. My roommate is taking a nap..:-\ I'd feel badly waking her.
Do de do de do....I just figured I'd add to this thing...it'd be like me talking randomly to myself! ha! :) ENJOY.

I am TOTALLY going to live on the lake in austin with a boat, and it'll be AWESOME. ALLAN GREEN....you're my hero! hahaha, I've just been told that it is totally possible for me to be in the petroleum industry AND have that life. OHHHH yeah buddy, I'm gonna be a happy camper! :)
Public - 11:01 PM - 1 view - add eprops - add comments - edit it - email it - fix language
OHHHHH man, I want a boat! That's my new goal in life, is to have a boat, and have a niiiiiice house on the water. I went out on Lake Travis yesterday with my sister in law, and her family, and ohhh myyy gooodness. I was drooling for the water. I LOVE water. I hadn't been out on water in soo long, and my heart was filled with GLEE being out on the water. Regardless of how dark I knew I was getting...I just LOVED being out there. Getting sprayed as we sped along so effortlessly above the wtaer. The sun, the waves, the people...it was AWESOME!!! I could do that every weekend. HAHAH, ok ok, I'm sure you get the idea, but...yeah, I had a blast yesterday for a few hours. It was something different, and boy was I giddy.
Friday night...ALSO very different. Them dekes sure know how to throw a party. So, my roommate, kelsey, and I went to the DKE party on Friday night, and we were only there for about an hour or maybe less, and then party really took an interesting turn. As we headed downstairs from being upstairs, only a short while, I saw this girl running into the bathroom, and I thought she was about to puke up a storm...that wasn't so. I walked into the room where she had just been, and it smelled really strongly of burnt hair and flesh. YEAH...she just got burned by the flaming dr. peppers that were being served. She wasn't the only one. Two girls got second degree burns that night. Well, when that happened, the party cleared out fast, and the deke that invited us there, decided to take a change of scenery, so we just hopped over to A Hole in the Wall. That was fun times as well. My roommate, she knows how to have some fun. She gets guys over to talk to us. We met two doods that just made the night a little funner. We didn't get back hom till close to 5. I've slept so few hour the past two nights that my throat is now scratchy, which only means one thing for my CRAPPY immune system!!! I've been sick soooo much this semester, it's sickening!
Eh, that's about all I feel like saying right now. I'll be back...I'm bored a LOT!. :)

I'm sick....AGAIN!!!! I think in the past 3 months, I've been sick for about 2 of them! It's weird. I used to never get sick. This is what you get when you don't work out! ARGH! I don't work out, I don't eat properly, and sometimes my sleep schedule is NOT what it should be. That's what triggered it this weekend. I didn't sleep very much. Now, all I want to do is make up for it. I skipped one class this week. It was like having a three day weekend, since one class got cancelled and I skipped the other. :) That helped, too bad I had work to do, that sucked.
I'm done with my Pchem lab! woohoo, that just leaves geostats hw due tomorrow. When that's done..I'll be happy. I should be relatively busy today, but I have another hour and a half break to get started on Geostats...wow! I'm so productive it's crazy!
I'm gonna be able to see my sgt. this weekend! I can't wait. I haven't seen him in three weeks!!!! That't nuts. I miss him so much that he's the only one that can call me an hour after I fall asleep at 2:30 in the morning, and talk to me for an hour and a half. He's the only one that can call back at 6:30. I would have answerd the phone that time, but I was completely out, and just didn't hear it. He's also the ONLY one allowed to wake me up before 8am with a phone call. If anyone else tries it..I'll ignore the call, or answer it and say I'll call back later! :) Hey, those are the benifits of being with me! hahaha.
Yeah, so.....everytime Jay calls me, it's at times that shocks me. I'm always glad that he calls, and I'm like, hey, if he's calling me...he can be talking to me right now. Well, the other night...he should NOT have called me. I feel badly, he got into some trouble. He ended up getting to work late...NOT GOOD! GRRREAT...now if he calls me that late, not only does he wake me up, but I'll have to ignore the call.
Lalalalallala. Does anyone actually read this thing?! Eh, what if they don't, at least I have somwhere to blab!
Hmmm....what else is worth mentioning?! OHHHHHHHHHHH YEAH!!!! I'm getting baptized on Sunday!!!!!! This is something I'm sooo excited about. It's a HUGE step in my life....a HUGE deal to me. I'm extremely happy that I have Christ is my life. With out Him, I'd be so miserable. There have been times where I've been miserable but only got out of it because of Him. It's an amazing feeling to please him and to be blessed. Yeah, that's some big news that I'd like to share. When the pastor asks me why I'm doing it...I'm going to say "To publicly declare my love for the Lord and to obey His command" Ain't that the truth! woohoo, ok ok, that's about it
I'm gonna go now, I'll be back, don't worry..I know you are! :)

Well gee whizz.. I'm rather pissed at the moment. This week was pretty busy. I was FREAKING out to the point of puking on Monday night about a test on Tuesday morning. The test, I did it...but I know I still failed it. Quite frankly, that teacher pisses me off!!! Regardless...the test didn't make me feel like puking when I was done. It could have been a WHOLE lot worse.
Wednesday...I was on campus at 10am-12pm. I came home and did more work til I realized I was doing crap with my hw, and had to go to bed. I went to the stupid 930 class, and I finally left campus at 6pm. Yeah...long days, doing lot of stuff during the day too!!
So today, instead of using my free time to start working on something due next Tuesday, I helped my friend study for a test she had to make up as a way for me to not have to think. Anyway..today was pretty chill, and I came home and just hung out with Ahjin. It's what we do, sit around, chill, lie around, chill, talk, sleep, not much really, but it's better than the BUSY week I've had.
So, I was sorta hoping Jay would call me in the evening, esp around 9. Did he? NO! I never let a message saying why I called him two times in a row today. NOT THAT I CALLED TWO TIMES ON PURPOSE, EXPECTING HIM TO TALK TO ME! So, I called him, and he was asleep. Poor kid works hard, and is just so tired when he gets home that he wants to chill. Who am I to deny him of that. When I'm tired, I'm tired too. BUT, IF HE THINKS I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE TO BE TIRED AND BUSY...HE'S GOT ANOTHER THING COMING! Ok, so that's why I'm mad at the moment. I have every right to be, since I wasn't even informed in the slightest that nothing was gonna happen with us tonight! whatever, I'm over it...I'll be over it! ahh, hahaha, I'm writing about it, and I seem like i'm not over it, but the truth is...we just have to wait and see how much more pissed I can get! :) I'm an understanding person, and expect busy people to do what they need to do, but don't ever assume I don't understand. GOT IT?! Anyway, since I'm not really mad at the moment...I'm gonna stop writing. I am bored, but..there isn't anything I can do about it. I might just go to bed soon. I guess I'll talk later, bye.
Sunday, April 24, 2005
So...PMDD SUCKS! hahaha, I've diagnosed myself with this. It wasn't really Jay's fault for not calling me. I really didn't need to be that angry about it, but I blame the disease! Too bad I woke up on Saturday morning to be pissed off again! :-\ Oh well, I got over it when I finally got to see Jay on Saturday night.
Instead of being alone in my apartment for the second night in a row, I got to see my boy. I was happy to be with him and totally forgot about everything else. I can't stay mad at someone who makes me laugh. He understands that I had every right to be mad, but, I do feel like a total PMSsy chick for it! LOL. I'm capable of admitting to that too. However, the second someone else uses that against me...they'll be in trouble. :)
Today was good. I went to church, had a satisfying lunch(satisfied a craving) and lay around for a while, took a nap, woke up, ate again, and did my hw. I got done with my hw before 10, that was weird, esp since I started it like at 8. This week is gonna be relatively light. As soon as I finish my stupid geo lab due tuesday, which I know is gonna be a pain, and will piss me off, I'll be able to start studying for Fluid Flow. I hope I do well on that test...keep my decent grade. I might even be productive and start the stuff that's due next week! =-o Well..that's my goal at least.
I don't have much to say, and I might as well get to bed early tonight. Toodles

I'm in Katy, doing alllllll my laundry! It's crazy, I just brought dirty laundry with me and it filled two baskets and a duffel bag! yeah...lots of clothes.
I'm done with my FOURTH year at UT!! It's crazy that four years have gone by sooo quickly. I feel like just yesterday I started as a lil freshman. Too bad I'm not graduating in a week. It's weird seeing all my friends that I graduated with in HS graduating college. I don't think it would be such a big deal if I hadn't graduated with them. Oh well, good luck to them. I look forward to it NEXT year. I don't even feel like I'm done for the semester. Three of my grades are out, and so far...not too bad. I'm disappointed in not being able to pull up two B's to A's, but...I'll take them, as long as my last grade doesn't screw me! One of my classes...BIG SHOCKER! I'm relieved that it wasn't a worse outcome.
I got done with my last final at 10pm on Saturday night but felt NO sense of relief for being done because that final realllly screwed me! Man, that prof...he's soooo not cool! lol.
Aww...Allan's graduating this sememester...He's leaving me! That's actually kinda sad. Having at least one class with him for the past year an a half, and knowing him since junior year of high school...weird that he won't be around anymore!
ahh, I'm not in the mood to keep typing right now...be back later

I met a boy this summer. This boy makes me so happy! :)
I'm going to Tulsa for a second interview with Schlumberger on Dec 1-2. That's a big deal. I never thought I'd even get ONE interview!
That's about all that's up with me. LOL

Merry Christmas everyone!! :) I can't believe the year is almost over. Just one more week! This year definitely has been a life altering one for me. A lot of important things have happened to me this year. I've changed a lot about the way I think (those of you who have been around me a lot lately know how...the whole love thing)
The most important person in my life right now, I'd have to say, is Chris. He means a lot to me, and I'm so happy to say that. Yeah, that's one of the ways I've changed this year. I've met a guy that treats me so well, and loves me as much as I love him.
I'm a happy little camper. I'm just hoping for a job this coming semester. I'll be graduating in MAY!! That's nuts. My college career is coming to an end. Hopefully it will be a successful ending. If I get a job in Houston, I'll consider it to be successful.
I'm excited to go to Boston again!!! I loved it the last time I went, back in 2003 I think. Anyway, it was great. I went during the summer last time, so I'm certainly looking forward to going during the winter now. It will be the first time I'm away from my parents for a new year! I CAN'T WAIT!!! It'll be fun and exciting. My brother has asked some of his friends, who I happen to be friends with as well, to join us for my birthday, so that'll be cool. I'm really excited, b/c I get to see a lot of cool places, and eat a lot of good food. Hopefully I can get to know my new "sister"-in-law. I hardly do know her. I haven't really taken the time to know her though! Oh well, she should take some time to get to know me too!!! That's only how it should work, I think! :)
Anyway, I guess I'll write more on this thing later. I have a bit of time. I'll take breaks in between studying for a Spanish test that I'll be taking as soon as I get back to school. Yeah, sucks that I have to be studying over the break. Oh well, it gives me something to do.
Have a good Chrismas and Happy New Year.
Aging.
I am in the process of dumping old things to start new ones. Meaning...I'm moving on, into the new house, reminiscing of old times.
One of the ways is going through old accounts I set up over the years. Xanga being one of them. I don't even remember why I joined that blog site, but, I wrote a few entries before ignoring it. I'm about to cancel my account, but I'm re-reading the entries from 2005. 2005, the year that changed my life. I want to hold on to those entries. They're important to me.
Ahh...to be young again!

Today's developments.
Hopefully this will be behind us soon enough. I realize that there will be some sort of effect because of the spill for quite some time, but the immediate "threat" is near gone.

One of too many to count.
July 21st, 2010, I signed the papers to close on our very first house. First house for both of us, first house together. It was a bitter sweet moment as I had to sign all of the papers alone, and show up to the house alone.
I was alone on one of the most significant days of our lives together. So is the story with him working in another country. So is the story for the past year and for the next year. We got a great house though. Sacrifices were made, but, it's our home!
With that said, I just paid our first bill! Hooray! It's a milestone.
I felt nostalgic changing all of my addresses from my parents house to my own permanent address!
Whoa...it's like I'm an adult or something!

Back to the grind.
Ugh.
Since the 16th of June, I have been free. All I had to worry about was fighting heat and mosquito bites.
I had a great time with my family in Trinidad and a great time with friends and future family in St. Maarten. Vacation could always be longer. I need my body to equalize though. I'm glad to be back in the States, but wish I could have spent more time in Trinidad. I didn't even eat doubles when I was there! What kind of Trini am I?!
Being back means coming back to responsibilities. I HATE BEING JIPPED and right now, Chris and I are making sure that doesn't happen! oooohhhh...things better happen, or...holy cuss! I'm going to lose it.
I hate my job too. I am very much in need of a new one. Not that I haven't been for over a year now, but...coming back from vacation ALWAYS reminds me! Thanks, vacation.
