It's not the big stuff that makes coming home worth it anymore..

It's the small stuff like one on one car rides, over coffee conversations even with ppl who u normally wouldn't see, it's the "hold on.. I mean it, hold on" and the grocery shopping with my mom who conveniently just happens to pick a certain register lane to go to yet she claims it was a coincidence, it's the programming my dad's new phone cuz we are both electronically impaired, the sunoco visit that went from every morning to once ever few months, driving around just to drive and jam to tunes, running errands, talking to ppl and being able to say, "I love college"

... even tho these past few days have been relatively boring and uneventful, the few memorable times were worth it, so thanks to those who took the time and spent some of it with me. I hope everyone takes care this next half of the semester... summer is oh so close.

"I need to practice my sliding"
"ur what?!"
"my sliding.. for egyptian rat screw!"
"ohhhhh... I was thinking dirty"
"tsk tsk"

"Maybe it's an optical illusion ...?"
"cute... funny looking... shriveled... in the cold like turtles..." (u can use ur imagination on what she was talking about)

Had another over coffee conversation yesturday after stopping in and talking to Mrs O for a while about college and journalism... it's amazing how people grow up. I didn't go help Chuck at the bball game tonight cuz I have some reading to do, but am wasting time making Tom's bday present and talking. ooops. Spent some time today with the madre, went and got a new phone, still haven't gotten a call on it yet tho. Gotta pick up/clean, READ!

I knew it would be a let down coming back, I just wished I'd been surprised.

Just got back from the concert.... Brad Paisley, Sara Evans and Andy Griggs.... I liked the opening acts (sarah and andy) the best, and want to get their cds. So happy, energizing music, very glad I went. Downtown Erie is interesting... we waited around after the concert, but to no avail, just got told by some security cop that we would get raped so we went to Starbucks and I got a mocha caffe. Then went to see the lake which was frozen over, see if Giant Eagle had the choc buttercream frosting for Dave to come make us cupcakes, but again, a lost cause. Now Kate and Katie are washing up for bed, then it'll be my turn... goodnight all.

I didn't think I would feel like this... but I do... now what?

Ahora: We got out of anatomy lab early so I just came to work. Stopped by Marketplace and they had these Organic Oat bran pretzels!!! Mighty tasty I have to say. I am trying to space out my time... so I don't get too bored in the next two hours of work.
Impressed: I actually got my butt out of bed at 7am this morning to go work out for 45 minutes. Came back, took a shower, skidaddled to class in the colllld weather (but at least it is sunny out). Learned about the adductors and hip flexor muscles... next week, the BUTT!
To come: Lunch is at 12pm (so I should probably stop eating these delicious pretzels *as I take one more...which turns into 20 more*), then back to the dorm to pack some final things, do some dishes, make my bed, and the goal is to pack the car around 2:30pm and be outta here by 3pm. That should put us getting to Erie around 4/4:30pm. I have no idea what time the concert is, but we'll have dinner, get ready and head on out.
Feeling: I am so relaxed now that this week is over... or maybe it is still the after effect of exercise. I read an article at the gym about headaches the other night, n so I "borrowed the magazine" and brought the article back with me, it was very interesting, also had an article on controversial anti-depressants and the side effects of going off Paxil.

It has been a week of listening to music I haven't dug out since high school... right now the awesome Revis cd, which was also my first and only concert I have gone to thus far (until tomorrow when that will change) with Revis, Hoobastank, Fuel and those other two that were bad so we went and got Revis's autographs, good times good times Ash.

Before I leave tomorrow I have to: write up chem note cards, print out slides from class, wash my dishes, finish packing, take money out of atm machine, buy some supplies (batteries, film, tampons etc). As much as I know I will have a blast this weekend in Erie and Pitt, (Waterfront here we come!) I half wish I was going home tomorrow... blah.

Nothing like an hour at the gym and an orange sunrise smoothie to make stress, cramps and bitchiness go away, thanks Katie for coming with me! Tonight I have to study some chem for my own good, take and print out notes so I can learn this shit while I am at home, wash dishes, and go see the Tempest (shakespear) at 8pm with the girls for Lit class.

I got some great news today, Cindy WON the Presidential Teacher of the Year award that I nominated her for, and they called to ask if I would read part of my letter of recommendation at the Honors Convocation held on April 3rd in the introduction!!! I am so proud of her and ever so happy that I can do something for her in return. Forever meeting ppl who have changed my life....
