As much as I hate not being able to drive... it def all worked out. Without being able to drive, I have had to depend on other ppl all the time for rides, and during those rides we made connections, talked a lot!, and vented. It brought us much closer together, formed friendships that I normally would not have made and I am grateful for that. So with every discouragement there is def a plus side.

WOOH! It is sooooo nice to be back. Although I sure did have a wonderful time. No hard partying for this girl, but more like at night, calling ppl, watching figure skating and Law and Order on the amazingly comfortable beds, looking out at the city lights and moon sky... so relaxing. That was Sunday night, let me go back to Friday.

Friday: Drive out around 10am, tour of Chatham (sooo gorgeous) lunch at Panera bread mmm, get doughnuts at Krispy Kreme for the mornings. Find Westin hotel. Grumpy ass door guy, find parking, lug all stuff in, dog show at same hotel, find room, damn elevators don't come. Down to a messy mexican dinner and sit with this really cute dude who likes Duke, is a junior, going to be LTG next year (met his mother while I was looking for the fitness center the next day), and after this one encounter with him, all 4 of us (Ash, me, Casey and Erin) saw him everrrrywhere! On the elevator, in hallways, at dinner, sessions, and today walking down the stairs he hit my cup of water and it spilled, but luckily missed the clothing. So back to Friday... after dinner and general session (I love hamburgers... we will we will rock you uh, rock u uh, I am crazzzzzy, Hello friend we are all stars), walked around with Casey instead of going to the dance. Met a guy who is a senior at Penn Manor, runs xcoutnry and track, is looking at William and Jefferson, Slippery Rock, Duquesne, or Pitt for physical therapy! Wooh, but I never got his number. Walked till 12:30, went back to room to chill out.

Saturday: Woke up bright n early. You thought a guys bathroom would be bad, just look at ours! Dang. Forums (circle k forum saw the SRU potential again), general sessions, icky lunch so went to gift store and bought lunch (candy, chips, cookies, etc) at double the price they should have been. General session again, went to find fitness room sicne we had 4 hours to kill, but it cost 9 bucks a day to use a freakin tredmill. Walked outside for a bit since it was 80 degrees out! Shower for dinner, nice prom dress from last year and off we went to dinner and awards assembly. Night life- stayed at the room while everyone else went to dance or party.. but it was relaxing. Got to talk to Charisse for 1 1/2 n caught all up on stuff in Amherst. Started to fall asleep watching the Practice, ash came in, told me I had to stay awake (this is also after I catch her stealing forks and knives from the dining room table, so I grew a bit concerned). Suddenly, "happy birthday..." came rushing into the room, with a cake, a card, a candle and the 4 stolen forks. aww, so nice. Thanks guys. Ate the cake on the nice white sheets and went to bed.

Sunday: Woke up, got ready for our last and final session.. good byes, very emotional, everyone on the stage crying. Gonna be a good year next year. Packed n were out of there by 10:45! Toured Duquesne, Wendy's for lunch, and slept allllllll the way home. So nice out. Got some flowers from my rents, (bc my mom forgot until 30 min before I got home that it was my bday, even tho my dad called me this morning) haha. Now have to study, unpack and get ready for dinner with the grand/parents/brother. Call me, stop on by, whatever!

bloody nose- why didn't i get his number- what floor?- waiting for 20 min for an elevator to appear- stairs.. 106- there he is again!.. and again... and again!- cathedral prep- sugar high

Wow- 18 feels soooooo old! hehe.

Off to PITT!!!!!! woohoo, I am starting to get a bit excited, but a bit nervous too. I hate not knowing where to go, or who all these ppl are... I find comfort in familiarity, but also excitment in newnesss. I am sad that I must miss Tim's first track meet today tho.. *sad face*. He better take care of his assorted injuries too. Dang, wishi could be there. I remember last year going to see him and Ash B run all the time.. good times. Man, that was aroudn prom time too. booo. So anywho, Court is off to Duquesne in Pitt too, but I doubt I'll see her. Everyone else is staying home in Hershey, except for those crazy bunch going off to Europe! wooh! Hope none of their planes crash. They'll sure have fun. I think it is pathetic that most of the girls going are just going to check out hot foreign boys.. seriously, now. Waiting to pack the rest of my crapppp, and skidaddle out o here for a nice 4 hour car ride. booooooooo. I very much dislike long car rides, gets all cramped up in there. Can't even imagine what it would be like if I were tall. hehe. At least it is a minivan... nice and comfy... even if we do arrive late, we;ll arrive late with style I'm tellin you! Wow, I am hyper, i have been getting these hyper spells everyday now, normally it is around 9 pm... haha. So yea... This will none the less be an interesting weekend. My cell shal be on, so call it and give me a smile ok?! *wave, hugz, kisses.*

I still only mildly hate you... mostly bc u assume I do when i didn't.

Anywayssssss.... So my mom found this guy...who goes to LD, is a junior ( so she said was too young for me) but actually could see him as a SON IN LAW! This is coming from the woman who upon first meeting my dad knew that she was going to marry him... so this whole finding her son in law sort of freaked me out a bit! She wanted to tell him, why don't u come home with me... I have a nice daughter for u to meet. This is also coming from the mother who never speaks to me about guys. She said he was really cute, wants to go into medicine too, very personable, was schmoozing all the ppl there, and did I mention that she could see him as her son in law?!? mannnn, that was some craziness, I think after 18 years, my mom is actually starting to want me to find a nice boy. (cuz heck, my grandmother asked her a while ago when I was going to find one to settle down with and get married, and last week my mom made mention that she wouldn't mind me bringing home a guy like a particular friend I have, bc she likes this particular friend. oh boy)

Lax practice went very well I think for me. Supposed to be 70 degreees tomorrow. But I will be locked inside a hotel in Pittsburg sadly... I am glad that I have to get in shape for lacrosse game while I am there, so hopefully I can go work out in the fitness center and not participate in the festivities after all the meetings n whatnot. No need to be overlooked on a dance floor or just wander around with ppl I don't want to be with or who think I don't want to be with, on my bday. Good luck to Court, wish i could meet up with ya. Feel better. Have an awesome weekend, I will go in open minded... and try not to shoot myself on the 4 hour car ride starting at 10am. call the cell pleeeeeeeeeease! 717-575-9529
