The Five Factor Personality Test

I'm choking on baby Jesus!

Tue, 07 Feb 2006 03:41:42 GMT

don't ask.

okso.

about my weekend. homework free i might add! except for sunday of course.

oh but first. i went tanning for 15 minutes in their level 1 beds thursday after work which resulted in me burning on my chest and stomach. it didn't hurt, it was just really red. so i didn't go tanning at all over the weekend which resulted in a nice tan. so that's good. and apparently i burn theeeennnn tan. oh well. i'm just glad it cleared up.

um friday i had class till 11:50. we had a quiz in History that i got an 81 on. not bad, not bad. and another quiz is Englisssshhhh that i got a 17.5/25 on. whatever that means.

lata after class i stopped into Wendy's to check the schedule and pick up my check which i cashed. got gas. then stopped home to change then went to get my nails done. just a french manicure. it's been way too long and it's nice to do something for yourself once in a while.

friday night me, huey, my sister jessica, her friend emily all went to see When A Stranger Calls. we were suppose to go to the 9something show, but no. i got lost going to huey's. go figure. so we took a pit stop to Starbucks and went to the 10:15 show instead. the movie was good. but not as good as all the camotion about it or previews made it out to be. after the movie, i dropped jessica and emily back off at emily's house to spend the night then i dropped huey back off at his house and actually found my way home.

saturday jessica dyed my hair! =D i picked her up from emily's at 12noon then we ran into Wegmans and bought the hair dye. we started at 1:30. i had to wait down in the basement. alone. for 25 whole minutes. lol. oh well. when the 25 minutes were up, we washed the dye out, i took a shower then blow dryed and straightened it. i lovvvve it! it's darker with red tints aaaaaallllllllllllllllll throughout and you can really see them when the light hits it. maybe even a little too much, but what can ya do. a professional couldn't of done it better. i know because i've asked to go darker with red highlights throughout and these results are closer to what i want, so i'm prettydamnhappy with them!

i must of been tired after the whole ordeal. so i napped for idk how long. i woke up a couple times to dan text messaging me. then katie and allison called me which got me up then jeff beeped in, but i ended up hanging out with katie and allison. so i got ready and when i finally got there, i went upstairs and hugged allison who i haven't seen in literally forever and have missed like crazy! we decided we were gonna go the movies, but we first had to stop at the bank so katie could get money out which was her literally hanging out my backseat window then by my house to get money from my mom.

i felt bad katie was sitting in my back seat by herself so i had to come up and sit on allison's lap then while i was driving katie goes "do you like my hat?" so i look over and she's wearing my work visor, which she proceeded to wear to and during the movie, it was pretty damn funny. when we first go to the movies, we noticed that there were way too many people there. some of which we actually knew. when we got our tickets, allison bought us a large drink that we shared... it almost looked like we were on a date. not really. so we saw Something New and we're literally the only white people in the entire theater i swear! lol. it was pretty damn funny though. the girls behind us kept cracking jokes and laughing at things we didn't understand and my cell phone decided to go off in the middle of the movie ahh! lol. good times man. good times.

then we decided to go to Denny's, which was also too crowded. lol. but i love it there. it reminds me of the Summerrrr. i swear our waitress thought we were all stoned! lol. she like kept staring at our eyes. allison and i shared cheesy bacon fries mmmmmmmm and we all talked about what to guys for Valentine's Day and just guys in general because what straight girl doesn't? then we saw katie's dad coming in with his date just as we were leaving, so that was interesting too.

afterward, we made a random stop to Wegmans so we could buy katie's higlights to highlight her hair later. we were like the only ones's there. while we were there, allison randomly bought some chocolate creme piiie mmmmm and katie bought some sparkling grape juice.

when we got back to katie's, allison started to highlight katie's hair while i fiddled around on katie's computer. katie's hair looks much lighter. much. but in a good way =) the whole process took about until 5am. well. that's what time we all got to bed anyway. dan called my cell so i talked to him for a bit and we all talked about me and dan before we went to bed.

OHH! and Fall Out Boy is coming to B-LO in April. tickets haven't gone on sell yet, but i for sure wanna go! i might go with allison and katie if dan doesn't end up going. i asked jebber if he wanted to come along but who knows.

okso. my mom called my cell at like 7:45am wondering where the heck i was then katie's cell alarm went off at 11 then allison's mom called katie's cell followed by dan calling mine. allison's dad picked her up at 12noon then i left.

when i got home, katie IMs me and tells me that i left my coat over at her house so i went back to pick it up then spent the rest of my Superbowl Sunday procrastinating my homework, which resulted in me waking up at 6:30am this morning to do it then doing it before my History class then doing as i was walking to English when the end result was we just not getting it done at all which resulted in me probably bombing the quiz she gave. lol. goooooooo me! note the sarcasm.

had a math test first thing this morning. 10 point bonus question. pretty damn easy. we'll see tomorrow. hopefully. History more notes. english pfft. but we did get our homework #1 assignment corrections back. i got a B overall. not bad. not bad. considering the class and all. after english, i got some lunch during my break from 12noon-2. couldn't find emily today. then fell asleep in the chair with steve's blanket/coat thing. had rob wake me up 15 minutes before my class started at 2. bri ended up skipping her 2 o'clock class because she had really bad cramps =( poor girly. we got our first journal assignments back in my intro. to teaching class. i got an A with a comment that read: "samantha: you will make an awesome teacher!" goooooooo me! note the not-sarcasm.

hokay. then i worked 5-8 tonight. ok. 5-7. whatever. it was unbelieeeevably slow tonight. like too slow. so slow that laurie had to send home a handful of people at 7, including myself. for being a monday and for being so slow, 5-7 went by pretty damn fast. plus i liked working up front with donald. he's always fun to talk to. after work i went tanning. i got a free upgrade since i've signed up so i used that and used the stand up bed so i could get under my arms. i went in for 7 minutes because the 10 minutes in the level 3 beds are equivalent to 20 minutes in the level 1 beds, so yeah.

and now i'm home! dan signed up for dodgeball at school and their first game was tonight. they lost, but it was close i guess. i called dan's mom to let them all know how my week was going. it was funny when matthew answered and i asked for their mom, i heard their mom in the background say "is that my sammi girl!?" hehe cute! my dad tried to hook my printer/scanner up, but you apparently have to hook another cord up to the printer going to the actual computer, so justin's gonna have to look at it. oh well. i don't really care. lol.

you know. for being my one long day for the entire week, today went by pretty damn fast. but hey. i'm not complaining or anything.

my daniel comes home on friday for our big Valentine's Day weekend then Florida next week! WHEE! and dan might be going home to NYC with his friend andrew from school next weekend. he's never been there before so i'm all excited for him! i lovvvved it there so i'm sure he will too!

hokay well. this has taken up enough time where i could be doing some productive.

like homework.

but who knows with me.

har har!

i've been busy

Thu, 02 Feb 2006 17:59:11 GMT

i haven't been updating much because i've been busy with trying to keep up on top of my homework and work. so i apologize.

it's been what? a week? so bare with me.

to make a long story short. last weekend consisted of homework, homework and ohh! more homework. so i became extreeeeeeeemely stressed out like you would not belieeeeeeeeve.

on a good note. my mom signed me up for a month on tanniiiing so i've been doing that every night after work. i'm hoping to get a job there. not anytime soon. but in the summer. because i wanna work full-time so i can put money away for buff. PLUS i get FREE tanning and 50% off of the lotions! =D

let's see. i guessssssss we can start with monday and go from there.

monday's are my long days.

i had math first.

math is getting easier. i'm getting use to using MyMathLab. i do awwwwesome on the homework assignments, but the quizzes are a different story. but you can go back and correct homework and redo quizzes when neccassary. and you can check your overall average, which is cool too. i've been staying on top of my homework. i have an 86something average in that class as of right now. i wanna try to maintain an 80 or above throughout the semester.

then i had history.

i was a little skeptical about that class because it's a writing intensive course so i was stressing over the first writing assignment. we had to read a 12-page article and do a 2-page summary on the entire article. well. i didn't understand the article so that made the whole summary part a little difficult. so that was frusterating. BUT we got our summaries back yesterday, was it? yeah. and i got an A, so that made me happy and i'm feeling better about that class. he handed out our book report assignments that are due february something. i forget.

english is a different story.

we had to do an arguement analysis for 1 of the 6 sides of 3 articles. if you don't get all and i mean aaaaaallllllllllllllllll of the MLA formatting correct, the highest grade you can get is a D. a D. not a B or a C or even a C-. a effing D! so when we got our papers back, she had 2 grades on mine. the first being for the actual content, which came out to a B. not too bad i guess. and the second was for the MLA format which i got. yep. you guessed it. a D. she's giving us the opportunity to correct it and get an A so i have to do that tonight. BUT this is the only paper we have the opportunity of correcting. aaaand tomorrow we have a quiz. a quiz. in english. ugh. so english is by far my least favorite class, which is sad because i use to lovvvve english in high school. but wait. i forgot we're NOT in high school anymore. crap.

after english, i got some lunchhhhhhhh. i was suppose to work out with emily but she was only going from 12-12:30 because she had class at 1 so i figured that wouldn't be enough time. she plans on working on mondays, wednesdays, and fridays so we'll see if i actually follow through. i really want to. when i'm at buff it should be easier because i'll have the time.

my introduction to teachings class was giving me a hard time too. we had to do a scavenger hunt with groups to find out what we all need to do become certified as a teacher in our areas. so that was overwhelming. that and our professor said we should all take the LAST exam before we leave MCC and i'm leaving like next semester. it's not required or anything. but still. iiiidk.

i had human geography today. my one and only class for the day. nothing but note taking really. he handed out our first assignment today. we have to do a mental map about the most important place in our life. and that's due february something as well.

i worked monday 5-8. tuesday 2-8. wednesday was suppose to be my 1 day off, but they asked me if i wanted to work yesterday 5-8 so i did. aaaand tonight i work 2-8. i have a total of 18 hours and since minimum wage went up, i should get over $100 check, which is awwwwesome for me! i'm really not looking forward to working 2-8 today. i'm sick and tired of working. just in general. thank gawwwd i have off this weekend. it's just gonna be nice not having to worry about school or work or anything. besides homework of course.

so let's see. school. work. dan...

dan and i are doing AMAZING! =D =D =D

this semester is going much smoother than last semester. we both keep busy and we barely fight.

you know it's weird. because last semester school was a breeze, but dan and i faught all the time. this semester school is difficult, but dan and i are doing AMAZING! lol.

OHH! in between everything that's been going on, dan's mom called me while i was at work on tuesday so i called her back when i got home. she said she missed my face and voice. =D i've missed her. alot. i meant to get in touch with her, but i've just been so busy so it was nice to catch up with her.

this weekend i'm letting jessica dye my hair. i wanna go darker. maybe a burgundy? i'm a little skeptical letting my 16-year old sister do it, but she's done hers before and it comes out awesome so we'll see.

dan comes home NEXT weekend for valentine's day then we leave for floorduhhhhhhhh the 16th at 4:30am. ugh. and i hate long car rides.

alright i'm gonna go downstairs and get something to eat.

until next time. whenever that is.

bye all!

A good one...

Never leave that till tomorrow, which you can do today. We have to make our own mistakes. We have to learn our own lessons. We have to sweep today's possibility under tomorrow's rug until we can't anymore. Knowing is better than wondering, that waking is better than sleeping, and even the biggest failure, even the worst, beat the hell out of never trying.

One week down...

Fri, 27 Jan 2006 23:08:40 GMT

16 more to go. ugh.

so wednesday math was scheduled in the math lab at 8:20! our flakey professor's been e-mailing all us left and right with room and times changes. this room, that room. this time, that time. i swear he has NO idea what he's doing. so i got there, signed in then registered for MyMathLab but it wouldn't work on those computers, so of course we had to switch rooms. and if THAT wasn't frusterating enough, we spent the ENTIRE class doing classwork on MyMathLab. our professor just walks around and we ask questions. ok. how the HELL am i suppose to pass the effing course if the TEACHer doesn't TEACH!? i obviously don't KNOW the material considering i didn't "pass" math 098 with a C or better LAST semester. so i don't know how they expect me or ANY of us to do THAT much better with NO instruction whatsoever. grrrrrrrr...

after math was history. our professor gave us the article summary assignment that's due on monday. a 12 page article. ugh. then the professor lectured and we took notes. and my last class was english.

then i worked 5-8. same old story.

yesterday the only class i had was human geography from 9:30-10:50. our professor just lectured and we took some notes. so that was cool. ha! our professor lovvvves to be loud and swear so it's amusing. anyway.

i had to work 2-8 and no, they didn't send me home early. my back and feet were hurting by the end of the night.

it's finally friday! i've been waiting for this day since monday.

we fiiiiiiiinally have a permanent classroom for math!!! a classroom. not a math lab. and our professor is gonna lecture us. not the computer. but we still have to do the homework and quizzes on MyMathLab, which i don't mind as long as someONE, NOT someTHING is teaching me.

we're learning about Jamestown and all that hooplah in history. we took some more notes and watched a clip from the Disney movie Pocahontas. funnnn stuff mannnn.

english grrrrrrrr. that class is gonna be a biiiiiiiitch. i'm a good writer, but it's the little things like the terminology that gets to me. or maybe it's because i haven't taken an english class since high school and we're not in high school anymore.

so after class, i was a liiiiiiiittle stressed out. i just broke down in the car. i guess this is what i get for getting off so easy last semester. i had nothing but fluff work last semester and now i'm crrrrrrrrammed with work like whoa the first week of classes the second semester. ugh.

when i got home, i watched one of my fav-o-rite episodes of Boy Meets World then worked on some math. then i went to Wendy's to pick up my check and HSBC to cash it then filled my gas tank up. then i got my hair cut. just a trim. and then i went to Wegmans to pick up some stuff i've been needing.

and now i'm home! i'm getting sleepy and idky. i have so much homework to do this weekend. and i have a feeling i'm gonna be spending my saturday doing most if not all of it. ugh.

dan's coming home in 14 days!! and since we're broke college students, we're not gonna be going out. we're still gonna do the whole candy/card thing, but i got the idea that dan could make us dinner then we can rent our fav-o-rite love movies and watch them together. i think it's a cute idea and i can't wait! just being with him!!

alright dinner time!

bye all!

"Innocent until proven guilty."

Tue, 24 Jan 2006 17:12:23 GMT

okay so saturday night dan and i didn't end up going out. dan played The Sims all night and i fell asleep. and then the fire alarm decided to go off at 3am, so i had to wake up, change quick, then stand outside in the cold. jenn and the gang had a power hour, so they were a liiiittle drunk, but it was funny. jenn walked dan and i back to dan's room and i went back to bed and dan came to bed a bit later.

sunday dan and i went to breakfast with jenn and ashley. i got waffles and a hash brown. afterward, we went back to dan's room and just hung out and watched Friends until his dad and matthew came at 4. we hung around and waited while dan's dad helped clean up dan's room a bit, showed him all of the materials he bought dan, unpackaged everything then helped dan organize it all. then dan walked us back out to the car, we all said goodbye then left. hopefully dan's coming home the weekend before Valentine's Day, which is in 18 days. anyway. when i got home, i unpacked and got everything ready for school...

monday was my first day of the second semester as a college freshman. i went in early so i could go around and make sure i knew where all of my rooms were for the day.

my first class was math at 9. it was in a math lab and they apparently scheduled 2 classes in that same room at that same time, so we got out early. so much for that class. then i had U.S. History. we watched a short video documentary and then the professor introduced himself and his rules for the course. this girl i knew when i went to St. Charles sits next to me and her brother was in my class. aaaaaaaand a kid i went to high school with keith is in that class too! it's amazing the people you run into at MCC. and then i had english. we asked questions about the course then took a little field trip to her office to pick up the course information packet.

i had a 2 hour break (but only on Mondays) for lunch, so emily and i got lunch. i got soup and salad plus rob and bri made muffins! i ate and talked with emily for a bit then we went to the bathroom and to the nurse so she could get an Advil... she's my new partner in crime! emily had class at 1, so i spent my last hour of my break talking with rob and bri.

my introduction to teaching class is from 2-3:20 on mondays. only. so it's not too bad. we just spent the class getting to know eachother by writing down 4 things we are interested in then walking around and seeing who had similar interests as us then we had to introduce our partner to the class. i met this kid chris who was born in Italy and is in a band, so he seemed cool. then we got into groups and presented our role as a teacher. and next monday we're doing a scavenger hunt! i think this class is gonna be really similar to my CDL from last semester... nothing by fluff work. except i had to read 4 chapters in our book and do a journal entry for next monday. anyway.

i had an awwwwesome first day.

i got home around 4 then got ready for work. i went in 15 minutes early and got a chicken sandwich before my shift started at 5.

it. was. so. slow. i ended up getting sent home early because we weren't making enough business.

when i got home, i was in one of those moods. i was just lonely and miserable and idky. i ended up taking a drive by the beach with the sister then came home and showered.

i've been up all night coughing. like hard. like to the point where my muscles hurt because of it. and it's thee ab-so-lute WORSE when i wake up. it sucks.

today i only had 2 classes. math at 8:30. but i had to go in early so i could buy my math book and U.S. History book, so i did that then went to math. today i noticed this kid that was in my math class last semester. he told me that he got a D+ and THAT sucks. but again, we didn't do anything (since the computers were down) but go over the course information packet, which i know everything about the course anyway considering i took it already! but it's soo different from last semester. we're not doing lectures, instead we're using this computer software called MyMathLab and then came with the book i bought. all of our homework and quizzes are done on that and then the tests are handwritten. it just seems more independent. like an online course. and our teacher seems really nervous, so idk about that class. he let us our early. again. big surprise.

my last class for the day was human geography, which i was a little nervous about until i met the professor who seems really really cool! i thought it was gonna be memorizing the states, but there's so much more to it. and our class is hugeeee... there are 13 people on the waiting list! so it HAS TO be a really really cool course. we have to cover 8 sections and 1 of the 8 sections is on cemeteries, so we get to take a field trip to a cemetary for extra credit! he says it's gonna be on a Saturday at like 10 in the morning, but who cares. so i'm siked about that class! he even let us all go early, so i got home around 11...

aaaand i don't have to work tonight! but i work tomorrow 5-8 then thursday 2-8. sharon called me in yesterday to come in early, but i had class. i felt bad because i could really use the hours. ah well...

so i think i'm gonna use some of that extra time and do some of that reading that was assigned tonight, but i'm lazy so who knows with me! maybe i'll take a nap. i'm kinda sorta tired.

hooooookay. that's all.

bye all!

Buff State for the weekend

Sun, 22 Jan 2006 00:46:00 GMT

okay so i set my alarm for 7am on friday it went off and i closed my eyes for what seemed like a minute then i woke up to my mom calling my cell to wake me up at like 10 to 8. so i got up, showered and got ready then mom and i went to MCC to get my books. there was hardly any line, so that was good. probably because it was early and at the last minute, but i'm not complaining. while we there, i got a couple new folders and a new pink backpack! after we got my books, we went up to Records and Registration and handed in my transcript application, so i'm all done applying for buff state! aaaaaaaand now we waaaaiiiit. on the way home, we ran into Wegmans then when we we got back home, i finished getting ready and packing while mom napped.

we left for buff at 11:15 but stopped at McDonald's first. i got to buff closer to 1. dan and jenn met me outside. we went back to dan's room so dan could show me the skins he's been working on for the Sim's and jenn went to class. i saw charlie in the hallway so i said hi! i guess he's dan roommate again this semester because that david kid never showed and charlie needed a place to sleep, so i'm glad about that! then dan and i went up to jenn's room and i met jaime for the first time. ashley was still hungover from the night before so she was just laying on jenn's bed talking to rachael on the phone. lol. poor girl. then dan, jamie, and i went up into mike's room and i met mike, andrew, and mike's roomate, kyle. jaime went back down to jenn's room to keep ashley company, so i went with her. then ashley went back up to mike's room and i talked to jaime and got to know her a little better. then we went BACK up to mike's room. jenn met us all there after class and then we decided to go out to at the Roadhouse Grill. ashley and jenn went with jaime in her car and dan and i went with kyle and andrew in andrew's car. mike couldn't go because he was too hung over, lol. we first had to stop at Tops, so jenn could cash her check, so dan and i ran into Radio Shack with andrew so he could look at headphones. and thennnnnnnn after following jaime's obstacle course, passing about 10 possible restaurants, and waiting 25 minutes for jaime to cash her check, we finally got there. i just got the loaded baked potato, but mmmm was it good! afterward, dan and i rode back with ashley and jamie, but we stopped at jaime's brother's first then went back to campus. dan and i went to dan's room and charlie was sleeping. then dan and i showered and got ready then the whole gang came down and reminded us about the hockey game at 7. so we finished getting ready then met them all at the hockey game. after the hockey game, dan and i went up to mike and kyle's room with mike, kyle, andrew, jaime, and will. then the guys ordered some awwwwesome pizza while dan agonized over this puzzle that mike got him and everyone else going on! lol. then we went into andrew's room. andrew made between 60 and 70 jello shots, so everyone was drinking and funneling! andrew had this awwwwesome soda making machine, so i had him make me a sprite! everyone played bet ya liva and will was already drunk, so. lol. and thennnnnnnn we all played CATCH PHRASE!! after figuring how who was on what team. it was my first time and my team LOST!! it was just soo intense, but fun. after the 3rd game, it was going on 3am! but it really felt like 9pm. so dan and i said goodnight to everyone then we downstairs to his room and went to bed.

dan and i slept in until 1pm today then we got up, showered, and got ready. when i was waiting to use the shower, ashley and jenn were heading to the union to get fooood. and when i got back from the shower, andrew was in dan's room, so him and dan went up to see if kyle wanted to come with us to Jim's Steakout while i finished getting ready. kyle didn't end up going, so it was just the 3 of us.

dan has been napping ever since we got back. or so it seems he has. ashley called, so we helped her and jenn bring up their groceries from Tops to jenn's room and now dan's napping again and i'm just kinda chilling here. being bored. watching friends. but still bored. ashley was suppose to come down to keep me company, but she had to make dinner with jenn and jon. it's okay.

i thiiiiiiiink i'm gonna go wake dan up now since it's going on 8pm

...i wonder what's going on tonight

bye all!

and i'll fall asleep tonight cus that brings me closer to you

Fri, 20 Jan 2006 04:52:42 GMT

so monday i didn't end up going out to eat at Applebee's with the sister. she thought it would be cute for me to drive all the way there, give them my name, then sit down and wait then decide to leave. all because i asked to see her $25 gift card because i wanted to make sure we had enough before we sat down and actually ordered then got in trouble for NOT having enough. but no. go figure. and i was really looking forward to it since dan left. so that bummed me even MORE. way to add to the depression. thanks a lot.

i worked monday 5-8. i left my work shoes at dan's, so i had to stop over there and pick them up. just being there for 5 minutes felt great. i worked with don and laurie. and it was slow. slow enough that i don't remember much of the night. i probably just ate a buttload and stocked the majority of the night.

tuesday i went to MCC to drop MTH 104 and add MTH 098. i waited in line then they finally gave me the drop/add application to fill out and then i just waited around for 45 minutes until i finally went up to the window and said something. it's a good thing i didn't wait until tomorrow to do this because spots for MTH 098 were filling up fast. much faster than i thought they would. so they basically just switched tuesday and thursday. instead of having off tuesday like i did last semester, i have off thursday. same times though. monday, wednesday, and friday from 9-9:50 and tuesdays 8:30-9:20. i wonder who my professor will be? then i was directed to Records and Registration to have my fall MCC transcript sent to buff. there was line there too, but it wasn't too bad. when it was my turn, they had me fill out the transcript application, but the girl that was helping me was so rude. uuuugggghhhh. everytime i asked her a question, she talked to me like i was stupid. and then she told me that there was a hold on my transcript, so i just said fuck it and left. i told my mom what had happened and she called MCC and apparently they made a "mistake", so now i can send my transcript to buff. which i plan on doing tomorrow when i go up there to get my books.

that night i was SUPPOSE to work 5-8, but don apparently called me and left a message telling me i didn't have to come in. i'm kinda getting sick and tired of them cutting me all of the time. plus i look forward to working more now a days since dan's gone... it gets my mind off of everything.

yesterday i worked 5-8. when they took me off of register, i got lazy towards the end of my shift.

aaaand last night when i called vinnie, his little brother CJ answered and told me that vinnie hit his stepdad over the head with a pipe because he was going after CJ and that vinnie was talking to the cops. whoa now. that's just crazy!! but i guess the cop is going to use vinnie as a witness instead of a suspect. i'm surprised vinnie didn't get arrested. i'm GLAD he didn't though.

i was suppose to be spending the weekend at dan's parents' because my parents are going out of town and my mom still doesn't want me home alone overnight, so i was gonna spend the weekend at dan's parents' house, which i didn't mind at all. but dan's mom called my cell today to let me know that bernie can pick me up from buff on sunday since the weather's gonna be nice and there may not be another chance of there being nice weather in who knows how long, so i might as well go up now, right?

i was so fuckin happy when i found out!! ahh i got all excited and called dan to let him know, then my mom, then i called dan's mom back, i told jenn and ashley just ahh!! so my mom's gonna take me up to buff tomorrow then dan's dad is gonna pick me up on sunday. but my mom and i first have to go to MCC to get my books and send out my transcript. i wanna pick up my check from Wendy's then cash it. then i have to stop at dan's and pick up some stuff to bring up and give them dan's supply list he had to write down to give to them, so that way dan's dad can pick up all of his supplies he'll need this weekend and just bring them up with him when he comes and picks me up on sunday. anyway.

so i worked 5-8 tonight. with shabion. i think she likes to yell at everyone just for the hell of it. she's turning into sharon more and more, i swear.

andddd during my shift, this older woman came in with this little girl who i'd say was about 10. and i noticed she was crying. or had BEEN crying. so after i took her order, she went into the bathroom and all of a sudden the grandma started to cry, too! and then she told me that the little girl's father, mother, AND brother had just been killed!!

what do you say to that?? what can you say to that??

i just... didn't know what to say to all of that. all i could think of to say was "i'm sorry" and i gave them a free Frosty. i felt soo bad and couldn't stop thinking about that allllllll night. that's like... dan losing his dad, mom, and matthew!! ahh.

i did some laundry earlier tonight for this weekend and i just finished watching Friends with my mom downstairs. so i'm gonna go get ready for the bed then turn on Friends and fall asleep in the middle of an episode. i have to set my alarm for 7am because i have to go to MCC to get my books plus alot of other running around and my mom wants to leave for buff at 11 so she can be home in time to pick up my sister before she has to leave for out of town. that and i'm sick so i'm gonna get some much needed sleep for this weekend. and OHH!! 8 months tomorrow! i'll update again if i have the time this weekend or on sunday when i get home. who knows though because classes start up again on monday.

bye all!

Where is your boy tonight? I hope he is a gentlemen.

okay. so thursday i picked dan up from work at 3 and reminded him about the night before =P apparently he doesn't remember coming home and after i left, he ended up throwing up and only remembers bits and pieces of that.

thursday night i worked 5-8. sharon ended up having some appointment, so it was just don and laurie, but we were busy, so it's not like i got to eat or anything =P i worked with paula for the first time in F-O-R-E-V-E-R. we talked about this new guy she's been seeing. she talked about him all of the time and gets so giddy. it's so cute that you can still get that way over someone even if you're older.

Friday dan worked 12-5. during this time, i ended up going to Delta Sonic so i could use my FREE oil change coupon to get my oil changed with my mom and a new air filter put in and they even filled up my windshield wiper fluid. idk. the car seemed to be running MUCH smoother. i got a call from dan's mom letting me know that his dad was gonna pick him up from work, so i did my usual Friday errands. we ended up getting McDonald's. i wish i had gotten a chicken instead, but oh well. and they FORGOT dan's 2 double cheeseburgers, so while dan showered, his mom called and his dad ran down and picked them up. he didn't end up wanting the second one, so he just gave it to me. so all together, i had cheeseburger, a 10 piece nugget, a couple fries, and then his double cheeseburger! =D

then we watched some more Family Guy until jeb came over. he ended up burning me Dane Cook's Harmful If Swallowed and Retaliation CD 1 & 2!! =D i totally and completely forgot i even asked him!

friday night was guys' night, so i ended up going to see Memiors of a Geisha with katie thayer. it got better once i got what was going on towards the end. i'd give it a 5... ish.

so dan got home at 4am, so i called him then ended up going over and spending a whole 2 hours sleeping over his house because he had to work at 7 or 8, i forget now. when he left, i ended up sleeping in untiiil i forget when. dan worked until 2 or 3, i forget now. dan and i napped at some point then rachel, kenny, hunter, mileena, and aunt cheryl came over!! we played poker, just for the fun of it, then had pizza and cheesy breadsticks OMGGG soooo good. then they wanted to bet money and i didn't feel like betting any money, so i ended up falling asleep on the couch. i woke up as everyone was leaving, said goodbye, then dan and i went to bed.

yesterday was spent making sure dan had everything to go back to school. at one point, i stopped home to get dan's couple pairs of sweatpants i wore home and started crying all the way home =( then again when i got back to dan's. i can't help it...

sammi's in love. what can i say? =P

so dan laid up in his bedroom with me then we took a shower together then burned CDs for the ride up to buff. i ended up going with them to drop dan off because i knew they wanted me to plus they would need my help at some point or another. we listened to Dane Cook to lighten the mood for some of the way up there.

when we got to buff, we were able to pull up to the door and load dan's stuff into his dorm. it smelled just like Perry Hall =P OHH! it turns out dan has a new roommate. david chu. so anyways. dan and i made the bed while dan's dad loaded up his fridge then dan and his dad hooked his computer up. jenn ended up stopping in at one point and she wanted me to come up and see her room since she just moved into Perry. we went pass ashley's room, but she was working. i noticed the ends of the hallways have different smells. it smells pretty on the girl's ends but the guy's ends smell like feet. anyways, jenn had so many pictures and a tissue box taped to her wall. how convenient of her =P

after we got dan all settled in, we went to Jim's Steakout as a surprise since matthew's never been there. i ended up switching things up and getting the steak and cheese sub. i personally like the chicken finger sub betterrrr. afterward, we walked dan back up to his room, said goodbye, then he walked us back down to the door and said goodbye again. you know. i surprisely handled it MUCH better than i had originally thought i would. much.

but i still miss him. very much. it's just gonna take some getting use to.

problmchild45: it will be worth it when u get through it all
problmchild45: plus after this semester u will be in school together

this is true =)

i mean. i can either bum around and waste my days being depressed (and i HATE being depressed) OR i can remember the memories and look forward to what's to come.

i vote for the second one =D

i listened to my CD player the whole ride home. when we got back to dan's, i sat and talked with dan's mom for a minute then got my stuff and left. i'm really gonna miss seeing them everyday. but i will be sure to call them later in the week. who knows. maybe even stop by. i'm gonna have to because Survivor starts February 2nd and we have to draw names!

OHH!! dan's thinking about coming home the weekend before for Valentine's Day. that would be nice =)

and i'm leaning more and more towards going to Florida in February during President's week. because i'm not gonna be doing anything else and it's a FREE trip and we all know how much i like FREE everything =D

so last night i had to get out of the house. during that time, steve-o called my cell and asked me to come out, but i (thought, anyways) i had to get up early and get my books for school and reschedule for my classes then finish filling out my application for buff state. so he said next weekend i'm gonna have to come out and party with them!! =D

alrighty, the sister wants to go to Applebee's because she has a $25 coupon then to the mall then i have to work 5-8. so until next time...

i'm out!

DiSTANCE MEANS SO LiTTLE
WHEN SOMEONE MEANS SO MUCH.

i miss you - really bad.

bye all!

NIGHT FLIGHT!

Thu, 12 Jan 2006 16:53:15 GMT

so its been a few days. sorry guys.

lets recap:

monday

i worked 5-8 and it was slow. as usual. and i was on front register. as usual. so i snacked on chicken nuggets and that new BBQ sauce for those new sandwiches, mmmmmmmm. idk what it is about that sauce, but it tastes so MUCH better than our BBQ dipping sauce for the nuggets. don let me make myself a sandwich, so i ate that in the break room until i had costumers, which sucked too because as soon as one would leave, another would come in and i had to leave my sandwich in the break room until it was clear up front. and i got myself a cho-co-late milk, mmmmmmmm. i lovvvve iiit when don and laurie are working and it's not busy.

monday i was up until 6:30am! but that was my sister jessica's fault because she came up to watch FRIENDS! at 5am =P

tuesday

dan had off from work. i HAD to work 5-8, but apparently they called my mom and told her i didn't have to go in. my mom called my cell and left a voicemail message, but i didn't get it until it was too late. it wasnt a big deal though. since i was there anyway, i gave sara a ride home then went back to dan's and talked with dan's mom about all sorts of stuff, nothing usual or anything. because dan, his dad, and matthew were out buying a new Poker set. thennnn we got our FREE PIZZA for din din and it wasnt burn this time! mmmmmmmm so good. aaand thats all i can really remember about Tuesday, except that i was up until 4am.

YESTERDAY
... was Wednesday.

dan had to work 12-3, so i gave him a ride to work. 3 hours, not bad. during that time, i did 2 loads of laundry, showered, then started applying to buff state. i first wrote a letter to GCC requesting my transcript for ENG 101 to buff. i found out that i DO indeed need a C or better in MTH 098 to move on to MTH 104 and since i got a C-, i have to take the class over again. so on monday, i have to go to MCC and reschedule. pain in my assss. and i called Odyssey to make sure i had atleast a C in ENG 101 because i know i got a C-, but i wasnt sure in what, so i left a message and they got back to me today and it turns out that i DO indeed have a C in ENG 101, so THERES a good thing. thennnn i started filling out the actual application. the deadline for the fall is June 1, so im gonna do a little bit each day. its really not that bad, but some of the questions are unneccassary... i think anyways.

dan's mom called me while i was doing my make-up and asked me to pick up fudgicles, but i didnt have money on me, so i would have to stop there to get some money and then go. i picked dan up from work at 3. dan told me he thought he saw my mom pull through drive through then as i was pulling out of the parking lot, she called my cell to let me know she saw him too! lol. when we got back to dan's, i dropped him off then ran up to Wegmans to pick up those fudgicles for dan's mom. i saw aaaaaaaallllllll the Valentine's Day goodies they have out! candy, flowers, and stuffed animals! its all so red, pink, and white! eeeek im so excited!! i lovvvve Valentine's Day to begin with. always have, always will. regaurdless if i have a valentine or not. but i cant waiiit to share this one with my daniel =) anyways.

when i got back to dan's, dan was on the computer then he showered and got ready because his dad wanted to go pick up dan's new glasses as soon as he got home from work. there was a small delay though because dan and matthew were teaching me how to play Poker on their new Poker set. i just need more practice. i didn't end up going with them to pick up the glasses. when they got back, dan and i went out to eat at Ricciiii's. we both got the chickem parm, mmmmmmmm. the chicken was so juicy and tender and they gave us 2 chicken breasts with a side of fries and our choice of soup or salad. its a nice little place. definitely your money's worth. i, of couse, didn't finish my second chicken breast, so i took it home with us.

steve-o called dan during dinner then jeb ended up picking us up at 7:30 and we all went to Classic Billard's to play pool. we listened to Dane Cook in the parking lot while waiting for brian and steve-o to show up. when they did, we hung out in the parking lot so they could finish their Sparks then we went in. we got the table right by the jukebox! =D so steve-o could play with it. we were at Billard's for a while then decided to stop and sit in the parking lot of Put-Put then decided to go to dan's which REALLY turned into going back to jeb's to play beer pong. on the way, steve-o stopped and got some more alcohol and alcohol like things and we went back to jeb's. dan finally taught us all how to play bet ya liva, which definitely got the guys aaaaaaaalllllll AMP'd up like you wouldn't belieeeeve. well. brian, dan, and steve-o, anyway. they were all being louder than loud! they would be standing right next to eachother, but still screaming at eachother, lol. you just HAD to be there. it was hi-larious. at some point, cody ended up stopping over. aaand thennnn steve-o bet dan $20 bucks then he couldnt cug the whole mug filled with Sparks, but surrrre enough, he did. he was already being loud before that, so you can only imagine what he was like after. ive never. EVER. seen dan like that. he was being soooooooo sloppy, his eyes were soo glazed, and he ended up falling on his ass! hahaha. brian had to hold him up and steve-o video recorded it all on his cell. after that little ordeal, we all ended up going to Nick Tahooooe's. i just had a hot dog. nothing special. after Tahoe's, brian dropped dan and i back off at dan's and i put dan to bed.

yeaaah.

no more on THAT topic.

what a way to spend a Wednesday night.

good times.

i got to bed after 4am, which probably wasnt good on my part considering ive only gotten a few hours sleep the past few nights. its the damn computer's fault =P

dan works 8-3. yeaaaah. good luck with THAT one. then i work 5-8 and i reallyyy don't wannaaa. i really probably SHOULD want to though considering i didnt Tuesday.

not much else to report. jessica got her wisdom teeth taken out, so he mouth is really swollen =/ i feel bad for her. and its been extreeeemely nice out the past 2 days. hey, im not complaing or anything! =P i love how a 50 degree day feels like a 90 degree day! but saturday its suppose to go back down to 20. yucky =(

mk thats all.

bye all!

Tue, 10 Jan 2006 17:27:16 GMT

Close your eyes... And go back...
Before the Internet or the AIM
Before semi automatics and weed
Before playstation2 or X-bOX
Before the 5 hours of homework you put off every night...

Way back...
I'm talkin' bout hide and go seek at dusk.
Red light, Green light.
Playing kickball & dodgeball until your porch light came on.
Mother May I?
Red Rover
4 square
Hula Hoops
Running through the sprinkler
Happy Meals
Getting the privelage to sit in the front seat of the car

Wait...
Watchin' Saturday Morning cartoons
Like Hey Arnold and Doug
Or what about legends of the hidden temple, global guts, double dare, and who, ARE YOU AFFRAID OF THE DARK!
Who could forget Snick
Or the teenage mutant ninja turtles,and Power Rangers,

Who could forget...
Christmas morning
Your first day of school
Bedtime Prayers and Goodnight Kisses
Climbing trees
Getting an ice cream off the ice cream truck
A million mosquito bites and sticky fingers
Jumpin' down the steps
Jumpin' on the bed
Pillow fights
Runnin' till you were out of breath
Laughing so hard that your stomach hurt and you almost peed your pants
Being tired from playin' all day
Your first crush...
Rainy days at school meant playing "Heads up 7-Up" in the classroom

Remember that?

I'm not finished yet...
Kool-Aid was the drink of the summer
Giving your friends a ride on your handlebars or spokes
Wearing your new shoes on the first day of school
Class Field Trips
When nearly everyone's mom was at home when the kids got there.
When getting high was swinging on the swingset
When $5 seemed like a million, and another dollar a Miracle.
When your parents took you to McDonalds and you were so cool.
When Toys r Us overuled the "mall"

I want to go back to the time when...
Decisions were made by going "eeny-meeny-miney-moe"
Mistakes were corrected by simply exclaiming, "do over!"
"Race issue" meant arguing about who ran the fastest.
Money issues were handled by whoever was the banker in "monopoly"
Catching fireflies could happily occupy an entire evening
It wasn't odd to have two or three "best" friends.
Being old, referred to anyone over 20.
The worst thing you could catch from the opposite sex was cooties.
Nobody was prettier than Mom
Nobody was cooler than Dad
Scrapes and bruises were kissed and made better
It was a big deal to finally be tall enough to ride the "big people" rides at the amusement park. Getting an inch of snow was a dream come true.
Abilities were discovered because of a "double-dog-dare"
Spinning around, getting dizzy and falling down was cause for giggles.

It just keeps getting better...

Mon, 09 Jan 2006 17:53:37 GMT

so saturday i went to the bridal show with my mom as the bride! =D

since my sister's not here, we figured hey, what the heck... i'm gonna get married someday, right?

speaking of, my sister said i could bring dan to the wedding!!

it was at the convention center downtown. when we first got there, they gave me a sticker that says "I'm the BRIDE" to wear around and a bag to keep all the goodies in. =)

it was smaller than the last one we went to, but still just as fun! they had booths set up for E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G you could EVER need for your wedding... photo albums and pictures, dresses and tuxedos, favors, invitations, transportation, flowers, cakes, even TANNING! they had a cho-co-late fountian, so i gradded a buttload of everything and dipped it in. =) and i signed up for a buttload of raffles. i wonder if i actually won anything? we had a sample of the bakery's AWWWESOME cake and cookies thennn watched the fashion show, which was so much funnn! especially with all the different age groups and the music playing. they had girls modeling the different dresses and the guys came out and danced in their tuxedos, which made it alot of fun too! they even had this little 5 year old boy come out with the guys. he was so cute! definitely the life of the party! =D i'm glad i went and it just got me even more excited about my own wedding!!

mom realized she had to stop at the bank before it closed at 1, but luckily we were able to see the whole show AND make it to the bank in time. i picked dan up from work at 2 then later that night, dan and i went bowling with my family and of course, i sucked.

yesterday dan got called into work 11-5. but we were hungry, so we stopped into McD's and got breakfast around 9. while dan was at work, i just put pictures of dan and i on my closet door, watched some FRIENDS! talked to ashley online for a bit and looked at icons online. she's still AWESOME!! =D thennn i took a bubble bath, realized i left my make-up at dan's, so i just dryed and straightened my hair then went to pick dan up at 5. we stopped at Blockbuster to rent Wedding Crashers using my 10$ gift card i won at work for selling 25 holiday gift certificates, but you needed a Blockbuster account and to sign UP for one, you needed a credit card and i didn't have mine with me, soo so much for THAT idea. dan's mom called my cell on the way home to ask where we were then dan asked his dad if he could run up to Blockbuster later since they had a Blockbuster account. when we got back to dan's, dan and his dad worked on setting up dan's new computer for school for about 2 hours. during that time, i talked with dan's mom. girl talk. =) aaand she showed me old letters dan's grandpa sent his grandma when he was over in The Korean War, which was cool. thennn dan's dad and mattew FINALLY went up to Blockbuster to rent us Wedding Crashers and dan FINALLY got his computer to work.

i ended up spending the night at dan's again, so i could take dan to work at 12noon today. he works until 4 and i work 5-8. =/

i woke up to this today:

"thanks for giving daniel rides to and from work, it helps out alot. your "other" father bernie"

so that made my day. i'm glad to be of help. =)

aaand i came home to this today:

JFrey1226: wish i was back home with all you guys right now!!

awww. i miss my jeb!! he went back to RIT yesterday. =( he was the first one out of all of us to go back...

so wednesday we're gonna go out to eat at Ricci's then come home and put in a movie and eat popcorn. definitely my kinda date. =D

i wanna help out around the house more because my parents don't have the time to, so i just might do that. and i wanna shower before work at 5. well, technically, it would have to be before 4 since that's when i'm picking dan up from work.

I want to spend the rest of my life
With you by my side
Forever and ever

bye all!

Sat, 07 Jan 2006 13:50:45 GMT

so.

dan and his mom are feeling mucho betterrr.

so that makes me mucho happyyy.

yesterday dan only worked for a total of 2 hours and 45 minutes because they sent him home early because they were sloooow. so he called me just as i was coming out of Wegmans parking lot and i stopped by my home quick quick then picked him up. we showered then got ready. OHH! they had this Murray special where these 5 people had unbeliiiieeeeevably weird phobias of BALLOONS, PICKLES, AND MUSTARD!! WTF is thaat!? lol. it was quite sad, actually. so then we went to cash his check, put gas into my car, stopped by my house, dan helped my dad pick up our new table for our TV out in the family room, then we met jeb at dan's house. i ended picking vince up and DDing for the night. we went to see the movie Hostel. being opening night and all, it was a pretty good size crowd. a group of kids were called out and we still dunno why. dan got me popcorn, but i paid for it. $7 for a small. shiit. i forgot how expensive the movies are. anyway.

the movie was pretty brutal. so i covered my eyes about... 98% of the time, lol. but i could still hear what was going on. i'd give it annnn 8.

after the movie let out, i dropped vince back off at his house then jeb sobered up at dan's then went to chill over at huey's. then dan and i went out to eat at Dennyyy's then just called it a night.

dan works 7-2, so i'm gonna pick him up at 2. but i just completely and totally forgot i have to go to a bridal show with the mommmm. YAY! for FREE CAKE! thennn my family and dan are all going bowling tonight. it's $35, but my mom's paying AND we get FREE popcorn and pop. YAY for FREE STUFFFF! you just can't beat that, you just can't!

anyways, i should probably go start getting ready.

Cause everytime we touch,
I get this feeling and everytime we kiss I swear I could fly.
Can't you feel my heart beat fast,
I wan't this to last, need you by my side.

bye all!

Taking care of my sick babe

Thu, 05 Jan 2006 19:54:19 GMT

Sooo...i took dan to give blood at the the red cross yesterday. they were running about 15 minutes late. we saw paul waiting there then i saw this girl from work chelsea just as we were leaving. then as we were driving back to dans, we saw this car accident on ridge involving 4 cars! damn all these accidents.

my daniel got a letter yesterday that said he made the deans list :-D i'm so proud of him!

i worked 5-8 last night. i was on front register n it wasnt too bad. and when i didnt have any costumers, i stocked everything so it made the time go by faster. they said i could go at 7:30 n at first i didn't want to but they decided i was hungry and wanted to eat. so i snagged the last baked potato, a chili, an oreo fix n mix, a nugget then i had markus make me a jr. cheeseburger :-D

so dan and his mom are both sick. :-( last night his mom had a terrible headache all of a sudden n a stomach ache n her legs hurt. then last night we went through pictures from when dan was little and i got to take some of my favorite ones home with me! what a cutiee :-) ahh i love it!

i gave myself a manicure n a facial last night. i WAS gonna give myself a pedicure too but i couldnt bc i couldn't find my nail polish. i think jessica has it...

then today after i picked dan up from work he had a terrible headache too n when he got home n changed he was cold so he laid down on the couch n i turned on scooby doo for him. then i ran into wegs to pick him up some orange juice then i gave him some meds and a cold compress and now hes sound asleep. :-) so for now its just me n the dog.

i made myself some easy mac n just got off the phone with my mom. she said my aunt dianne wants to go bowling with all of us n dan this saturday but rachel is coming over and we still need to double with kristine so my moms gonna ask if we can switch it to next saturday. if not were still gonna go next saturday, but just us.

matthew just got home from school! and hes complaining about a sore throat. oh great. i hope i dont get sick.

my dad just called my cell to let me know that work called saying i don't have to come in tonight!

anyways, i'm gonna find something to doooo.

so monday i had to work 5-8. it went by fast, so it wasn't too bad. that and don let me make a sandwich a half an hour before my shift ended =) after work, i wasn't feel my best again, so dan and i just ended up staying in. and i ended up getting to bed around 4:30am.

yesterday was tuesday. i woke up to my alarm going off at 10:30 then just laid there for who knows how long. thennnn ashley called my cell (i haven't talked to her in for-ev-er) then dan beeped in. i didn't end up getting to his house until 11:30, we showered, then got ready to go to the mall. we got to the mall an hour and a half later than we had originally anticipated. the mall was DEAD. i kinda liked it that way. so we checked the movie times for The Producers then called jeb to give him the word. the only times for the day were at 3something, 7something, and 10:15 and i had to work at 5, so we decided to go to the 10:15 show. so dan and i just ended up going shopping. i went into Gloria Jeans and got the White Chocolate Carmel Cookie Chillerrrr mmmmmmmm it was just as good as the first time i tasted it! =) so dan ended up getting those black Diesel shoes from Journeys. the sales guy was really helpful and nice, too. and i saw a shirt in AE that i liked. now all i need is a matching pink tank top to go under it =) then we went into Dick's, so dan could look at their poker sets...

when we were driving down Latta, dan noticed jeremy and who he thought was watson, but it was really vince driving in the opposite direction, so he called them and they ended up stopping by, so vince could give dan his Christmas present (a little late, i know) then we all decided to watch the movie, OldBoy. i couldn't watch the rest of it because i had work at 5, but from what i saw, it was really weird- good ol' vince.

so i was on fries. i HATE fries. but it made the time go by faster. and i got off and did everything else when i could =)

after work, i went over dan's and jeremy and vince we still there and they were all playing dan's Battlefront, so i went online then went upstairs and talked with dan's mom and matthew until dan came up and told me that we were going to the movies. by that time, watson stopped in then me, dan, jeb, and vince went to see the 10:15 showing of The Producers. jeb wanted to sneak beer in, but mall security was watching him, so he didn't. aaand jeb had enough points on his card thingy to get a free small popcorn, so he gave it to me =)

i'd give the movie a 4 out of 10. the movie was a musical. it was funny, but all of the singing got annoying.

today i have to pick jessica up from school at 2-2:30. i should probably call someone and check on that. thennnn dan gets to give blood today and i get to take him. uhhhhgh. then i have to work 5-8.

kristine just IMed me and wants to double tomorrow. she wants to see a movie, but we shall see since dan just spent like 17 bucks on the movie last night =/

anyways. dan just signed online, so i'm gonna go and see what's up.

peace out boy scout.

bye all!

Happy the-day-after New Year!!

Mon, 02 Jan 2006 16:23:23 GMT

i haven't had time to update...

so NYE i went with dan, charles, and bethany to Marketplace mall. charles picked us up and did a 360 down dan's street in the process then convinced bethany she just HAD TO go. had to. a complete foursome (as charles called it) it was nice though because then there wasn't gonna have to be a 3rd wheel. those aren't fun. so we were on our way to her house. then an helping-charles-actually-get-us-there-in-one-piece/finding-a-parking-spot later, we made it. we just window shopped for the most part. except charles. he bought a new shirt and an overshirt to go OVER that shirt from Hollister, which we all thought looked good together. then after playing "Find the Car", we left and took a pit stop to Denny's! so charles could get his hot chocolate. dan and i were the only ones who ordered actual food. actually. i got the Buffalo Chicken Strips... mmmmmmm. didn't have room for dessert. go figure. and we all just talked about The Old Days and stuffff. and after asking our waitress for directions on how to actually GET TO wal-mart and after charles dropped our waitress' tip into the hot chocolate AND the Ranch dipping sauce, we left. aaaand went to wal-mart (SUPER SIZE!) that. store. was. GI-NORMOUS! charles got his phone card, which left him with six. whole. dollars. then we left. overall, i must say it was quite the adventure. alot of laughs. charles is hi-larious and i definitely enjoyed getting to know him a little better. so charles dropped bethany off first then dan and i. we got back to dan's just in time to leave for aunt lindaaaa's.

when we first got to linda's it was about... 7:30/8ish. they had the deviled eggs with bacon and chicken wing dig and artichoke dip... DEFINITELY didn't settle with my stomach well =/ especially not after those spicy Buffalo Chicken Strips. so i barely ate anything the rest of the night. there's. a. shock. the whole night was Dane Cook, poker, Risk, and more poker. it made the time go by faster, at least. i met this girl, Sara who is SO MUCH like me! she's 19, our perception on guys is the same, she likes to write, but HATES math, is going through the trauma of a long distance relationship, and has been dating her boyfriend, andy, just about as long as dan and i have been dating. i got soo excited!! lol. so i talked to her for a bit. i felt soo bad though because she got really drunk and was throwing up. poor thing. and thennnn when it was about 5 to 12, i went out into the living room where everyone else was. there were soo many more people than there are normally for holiday celebrations. then dan came out after.

at midnight, i got my first kiss. i've ever had. on New Years. ever. =)

and so we celebrated, went around, gave hugs, shook hands, and said Happy New Year to everyone.

aaand thennnn we celebrated and sang Happy Birthday to robby. i tried a little cookie cake and vanilla ice cream because by that point, i was hungry and it just looked too damn good!! lol.

then i went downstairs and the guys were playing Risk and rachel tried to teach me the game of poker. while being drunk. lol. it was cute. i get the main idea of the game and why you win and, blah, blah, blah. all i need now is a liiittle more practice. but by 1:30, dan's dad wanted to leave.

we got back to dan's about 2am then we all went up to bed.

yesterdizzle was New Years Day! we slept in. of course. then got up because i was STARVING from lack of food the night before, so dan made us both a 3 CHEESE omelet with a side of toast!! mmmmmmmm soo good. he's so good to me =) and we watched the 4th Disc of Friends since i don't think we've really watched that one, except for Monica and Chandler's Wedding. then we eventually got ready to go to MY family's Christmas Party thingy. a little late, i know. we got there late, since my mom had to work days. dan kicked my uncle joey's ASS in poker. my family now calls him, "the card shark" and according to my mom, they all had the nicest things to say about him =) towards the end of the night, we went down into my uncle tommy's basement and watched my dad, cousin, and uncle bet 3 dollars on his bowling thing he has down there. by the time we were ready to leave, it was about 8:30, although it didn't seem that late. we decided to order PIZZA HUT on the way home since there was nothing but finger foods at the party and we were hungry then we went back to my house, took the pizza box up to my room and ate, then left. dan and i got back to his house around 10pm.

okies. i'm gonna go crawl back into bed with my sleepy daniel =)

bye all!

The last hours of this year...

Sat, 31 Dec 2005 15:05:30 GMT

so dan works until 2... or is it 3? i should probably call his house and check on that. we don't want another yesterday to happen, lol. i stopped into work quick to pick up my check and check my hours for this week. i work 5-8 monday through thursday and dan doesn't have to work until thursday, lol. oh well. it's only 5-8, so i can see him before and after and it's not like it's a long shift. dan got out of work at 3 and i was pulling into the wegmans parking lot at EXACTLY 3:05 when i noticed i had a missed call from dan's house, so i called back and his mom told me that dan's dad was on his way because apparently dan called to be picked up, so i just went straight to his house. and as i was explaining what happened to dan's mom, dad's dad pulls in and matthew said that HE DIDN'T HAVE DANIEL, so of course, dan's mom and i assume matthew is just being... well... matthew and just joking around, but HE REALLY WASN'T and his dad REALLY DIDN'T have dan haha! i guess he saw MY car and assumed that i picked him up. so he had to go BACK to McDonald's to go get him! what a MESS! i felt bad, but i just did what i was told. i was SO confused! i mean, dan NEVER EVER gets out of work on time. the past couple times i've gone to pick him up, i end up waiting around until 10 after and when i'm 5 minutes late, he gets out on time!?? no. lol.

after work, dan showered and got ready then was running around, made mac n cheese because i was STARVING and helped his dad bring chairs and tables in. aunt cheryl, hunter, and MILEEEENA stopped over. mileena was being a widdle brat and crying at anything and everything lol. i tried calling christine, but she didn't answer. dan's dad ended up following us to the bank so i could cash my check and so he could cash dan's check because dan didn't have ID thennnn to McDonald's so they could get dan's discount. i was waiting out in the car then dan called me to tell me to come in because katie thayer wanted to see me! so i did and just as i came in, she had to run out to her car, lol. after that, we went to get gas then to the mall. christine finally called back, so we said we would meet her at the movies. being a Friday at 5 o'clock when everyone is coming home from work, the traffic was crazy and while we were waiting to pull into the mall parking lot, we saw somebody REAR END another car and when the guy who did it got out to see the damage, dan saw that it was some jock kid he went to school with that he hated! lol.

so we met up with christine. dan saw the the shoes that he's been wanting. it's cool that our mall has them, but it's uncool because after his dad cashed his check, he forgot to get the money from him, so he was broke, lol. we went into AE and i got the adorable orange hoodie that i've been seeing all over the place and wanting. then we went into Charlotte Russe and i got one of those white sweater vest thingys. i WANTED to get my second holes in my ears done because christine had just gotten them, but i didn't have enough money, so that sucked =/ so i'm gonna get them done today when we got back up to the mall. except today it's gonna be me, dan, charles, and bethany. and dan can get his shoes, too. should be a fun time. then WE SAW JEREMY and while him and dan were talking, i went with christine so she could buy herself this awesome white chocolate carmel cookie coffee drink, i forget the exact name but i wanted it and kept taking sips of christine's lol. mmmmmmmm just talking and thinking about it now makes me want it. i'm gonna HAVE TO get it next time. have to. we went into Spencers and jeremy bought himself a new belt buckle and a new lighter. and dan saw this awesome, but expensive lightsaber for $120. and this Andy Milonakis 2 kid came up to us and started randomly talking to us, so we walked away and dan stayed and talked with him for a minute lol. i guess he told dan that he could be on MTV and that he had cameras in his shirt and yeah. just... wow lol. then we went into Express and christine and i went into Areo then we all went into KB TOYS!! because we're just cool like that (and lack of other things to do, of course) then we went into Hot Topic then we were getting bored and tired out, so we decided to leave. but i had fun. and it was cool having jeremy there, so then it was the 4 of us, not the 3 of us and no one felt left out. i gave jeremy a ride to his car, so he didn't have to walk then me, dan, and christine went back to dan's. steve-o ended up calling dan back for guys' night, so christine ended up coming back to my house. i went on the computer and she went through my picture box then left.

so like i said earlier, dan works until 2 or 3. i think it's 2. then we're hopefully going back up to the mall to get my ears done then later around 7 we're going to aunt linda's to celebrate robby's birthday and the new year! then tomorrow we're going with my family to the christie family christmas party.

well i'm getting bored with this. not to mention hungry, lazy, and tired so i'm gonna go try and do something productive.

bye all!

Time changes everything

Sat, 31 Dec 2005 03:53:03 GMT

so i've been looking through old entries from when i was with matt until when i first met dan and i decided to reflect on the past year, which was sparked by a friend's LJ post and because this year is coming to end.

and i mean, she's right. things can change so much. and take it from someone who is absolutely terrified of change, i know it's not always easy. you're in this comfortable place then all of a sudden, something or someone happens that rips all of that away from you and you have no control over it. so it's easy to pass hasty judgements and point fingers.

but sometimes things HAVE TO change. take matt for example. i mean, we all know what happened there. but i went from being abused, unhappy, basically failing my senior year of high school, and wanting to give up on life completely to being just so happy, meeting some new awesome friends that have become my family, having something to look forward to and work towards, and reaching my goal to get into buff. i have a new way of life now. i've grown up and matured so much all in one year.

this year was extremely significant to me. i was in an abusive relationship, i was failing my first class ever, i met dan, i graduated from high school, i got my license, this summer was nothing short of amazing, i started college. i've learned much in one year. i have learned so much about myself and i have met so many new people that have taught me so much.

looking back on it all, after everything i've been through this past year, i truly believe that everything happens for a reason. i mean, take matt for example. if that whole ordeal never happened, i wouldn't of met dan and i wouldn't appreciate happiness as much as i do. life's obsticles makes us who we are today and without the bad, you don't appreciate the good.

and with the new year approaching, i want to continue what i'm doing right now. if not, do even better. i wanna meet new people and try new things. i have so much to look forward to this upcoming year already! my second semester as a freshman in college, my first valentine's day with dan, our one year anniversary, summer 2006, warped tour with dan, jeremy, huey, and watson, toranto with dan and jeremy, going to buff state! and i'm gonna enjoy every minute of it! and i'm sure this year will have it's ups and downs as well, but i'm sure that whatever life has in store for me, i'll be ready because i'm smarter and stronger now because of this year.

"FUCK THIS GAME!!"

Fri, 30 Dec 2005 18:23:41 GMT

i have Dane Cook in my head.

i haven't been home to update. and i've just been trying, but my computer keeps freezing on me, so let's try this again.

Tuesday after dan got out of work at 3, we went shopping up at the mall. i just got a new purse and a few thongs from Aero and dan spent his Express gift card.

that night dan had people over his house. jeremy and brian were the first ones to come over then they went to pick up angela and we all went down in dan's basement to play Asshole. dan had the pool table out and he set up a beer pong table. i left at some point and went home then came back to watson telling me that HE ACCIDENTLY BROKE THE GLASS IN THE MCDONALD'S DOOR!! lol. idk how anyone can accidently break something like that, but i felt bad for the guy. he was all paranoid about it the entire night. dan had to sneak the beer in through his basement window, so jeremy and i had to stand ontop of the washer and dryer to help him sneak the beer in through his basement window! lol. ashley olsen and michelle came followed by steve-o and alyssa, finally. they all played Asshole then pool and i spent the majority of the night talking with jeremy because there was nothing else better to do.

wednesday dan had to work until 2. and when i went to pick dan up from work at 2 and i pulled up to see dan's dad's car sitting and waiting in the parking lot! lol. so i asked what he was doing there and he told me that dan told him that he got out at 2, so he must of thought that meant that he had to pick him up. which is WHY i told dan to tell his dad that i was picking him up, just to make sure. so it must of been a miscommunication of some sort. oh well. it was pretty damn funny. then i had to work 5-8. apparently we have 10 PIECE CHICKEN NUGGET COMBOS NOW!! aaand we're getting 3 new sauces, too! 1 being Buffalo Ranch mmmmmmmm. it was soooo sloooow for being a wednesday, but time fliiiied by! if that made any sense. i was up until 4:30-5 am on wednesday and idky.

ohh, you know what it probably is... it's probably because dan and i fall asleep then wake up around 1 or 2 am then i leave to go home, on the weekdays anyway. so then when i finally get home, i'm already up and i'm constantly staring at the computer, which probably doesn't help either.

yesterday dan had to work 7-3. in between that time, i went to Starbucks with my mom and sister because my mom had a $20 gift certificate thingy. when we got home, i watched some Dane Cook with my sister. then i showered and got ready quick then i went to pick up dan from work. dropped him off at his house. came home. went BACK to his house. then went shopping with dan, matthew, and their dad. they wanted to buy obi-wan kenobi's and mace windu's lightsabers, so we went to Toys R Us, but they didn't have it. so we went to the mall, so dan could return his shirt then we went into KB Toys, since we were at the mall anyway, but they didn't have it either. so we decided to go to Walmart. they ended up having obi-wan kenobi's lightsaber for matthew, but they didn't have mace windu's lightsaber for dan.

when we got back, dan made us both a samwich and me, dan, matthew, and their mom sat down and watched The Notebook since matthew and dan's mom have never seen it before. dan's mom started bawling towards the end, we had to pause the movie, so she could go into the bathroom. i felt soooo bad. lol. it's a great movie though. a great love story. that every girl wants =) one of my ab-so-lute fav-or-ites.

after the movie was over, dan and i went up into his bed and fell asleep AGAIN until about 1-1:30. i woke up, said goodbye to dan, then went home. i got to bed a little after 5 am.

i woke up here and there, but i got up around 11 or so.

and i finally got my report card in the mail this morning:

Career and Life: A
Math: C-
Sociology: B+
Interpersonal Communication: A

so of course, i told everyone! my grandpa, my dad, dana. lol. and i can't wait to tell dan!

my goal was to get 2 A's and a B because i need a 2.6 to get into buff state's exceptional ed. program and i got 2 A's and a B+, so i did BETTER than my goal! i went from a 1.9 to a 3.1 and all i needed was a 2.6... so i did better than i thought, which makes me happy! although i needed a C to pass Math 098, i think i MIGHT have to take it over again, which bums me out. my mom's gonna call on monday to find out for sure. but hey! it's not like i got a D or failed and it's not like it affects my GPA or me getting into buff. and that's all that matters!

and nowwww comes the application process. fun, fun.

i have to pick dan up from work at 3 then i'm gonna see if he wants to go to the mall with christine because we get our checks today! i still have to throw my laundry in the dryer. and i still have to shower and get ready then find time to pick up my check, cash it, and put gas into my car.

so i better be going!

So you go and make it happen
Do your best
Just keep on laughing
I'm telling you
There's always a brand new day

bye all!

Merry Christmas!!!

Tue, 27 Dec 2005 17:18:20 GMT

ok, so i'm a little late.

but so what.

EVERYTHING about this christmas made me happy.

christmas morning i was the first one up and out of bed. daniel called my cell to be the first to wish me a merry christmas, so i just got up. my parents were already up, but still in bed. so i had to wait around for my dad to start up the fire and for jessica to get up and out of bed. once we finally got jessica up and out of bed, we opened presents! i got: 2 pairs of jeans from PacSun and 3 sweaters from Aero. a Bath & Body Works sweet pea body lotion and shower gel. mmmm sweet peeeea. i got a new calender for 2006 and a reflection sentiments gift for daughters. it's nice too being i'm so sentimental and keep E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G. plus the simple things with alot of meaning behind them mean so much more. to me anyways. and in my stocking, i got: $20 from my aunt linda and uncle bob, some Marzipan candy, notecards, chocolate coins, earrings from Avon, chapstick, a keychain with my name on it, and OHH! umm a FREE carwash and oil change from Delta Sonic for my car!

i got to daniel's around 9ish. matthew opened and door, and of course, he had new airsoft gun that he's been so excited about, lol. daniel showed me his cross that looks brand new! and daniel's mom was so excited about the Rudolf christmas tree orderment that daniel got her for christmas and this cute little christmas record player that plays the actual little christmas records it comes with! daniel's mom opened my present to her. and she absolutely LOVED it. it's from her favorite scene from her favorite movie, so that's good. =) matthew loved his ID braclet. and daniel's dad liked his maroon flannel shirt as well. he wore it that day too. =) i got pink pajamas from daniel's family! that came with cute boxers too, so now i don't have to keep stealing daniel's, lol. it's funny too because on the sticker it said: to sam, from US (your other family), so i thought that was cute and funny, lol. thennnn i opened up my coat from daniel then the BEST present of all! he told my to close my eyes then he walked me to the mirror and when i opened my eyes... i saw: this unbeliiiieeeeevably beeeeeautiiiiful sterling silver necklace with a heart charm on it with diamonds. real diamonds. =D it matches my promise ring too! i lovvvve it! i love it all! then last but definitely not least, daniel opened his presents from meeee. it turns out that i actually DID get him season 4, which is what he originally wanted! i guess volume 3 really means season 4, so that's good, i guess. lol. and he liked his gift card to Express, too! then me, daniel, matthew, and daniel's mom watched some of daniel's Family Guy then started Four Brothers. it was then that i ran home to pick up my hair straightener since i accidently left it at home. i saw ALISHA driving when i was driving back to daniel's! well, actually she saw me, but still! lol. when i got back to daniel's, i finished Four Brothers with him... it's a good movie. then we showered and got ready to go over to Rachel and Kenny's!

we were the first ones to get to Rachel and Kenny's and we were all soo hungry, soo me and daniel's mom pigged out on deviled eggs that had BACON in them! OMGGG soooo good! then me, daniel, matthew, robby, and dale went upstairs and i watched them all play Texas Holdem on robby's new poker table he got from dale from christmas. it's cool. it comes with a cup, card, and chip holder. i went back and forth, upstairs and downstairs, visiting and talking with everyone. thennnn it was time to eat! there was SO much good food: they had HAM! and turkey. the creamiest mashed potatoes imaginable that had CHEESE in them! creamed corn. vegatables. squash. and biscuits! i filled up on so many deviled eggs, i didn't realize how full i actually was, lol. we opened presents. it turns out that rachel was my Secret Santa! i was shocked when kenny gave me my present because it was in this HUGE really pretty purple snowflake christmas bag. but OMGGG i was so happy! she got me: a pink bath robe =D and white slipper socks to match!! because you just gotta have the pink and white. it's just a given. =) that was just great too because i needed a pink bath robe and was gonna go out and buy one after christmas and now i don't have to!! they're both just soo soft!! then she also got me pink silk pajamas! =D it's all just too cute and sweet of her! she's a very giving person. very selfishless. i just... didn't know what to say to all of that. i wanted to cry! lol. kenny (well, hunter) was daniel's secret santa, so kenny got him this real leather necklace with these real silver keys on it that costed like $70 from Abercrombie & Fitch! then this really nice shirt from Abercrombie & Fitch. we were both very satisfied with all of our gifts. very. and dale liked his DVD i got him too. plus he didn't have it, so that's good too! after presents, daniel's mom took a picture of me and daniel and rachel and kenny in front of their christmas tree. =) thennnn came the desserts: pies. cake. truffles. but my faaavorite had to be the chocolate chip Reeses cookies! by that time, i was just too full. lol. after all of the food, desserts, and presents, i was ready for a nap. and by this time, rachel and kenny and some other of the parents were playing Texas Holdem, so i had to wait around for daniel to finish. before we left, we called jeremy to wish him a merry christmas. got a picture taken of me and daniel's family. then hugged and said goodbye to who was left. we're going over to aunt linda's for robby's 17th birthday party on saturday for new years! more family. more food. ughhhh. more food, lol.

overall, it was a great christmas. and ever since daniel's been home from college, i've been just so happy. it was just what we needed. i couldn't imagine it any other way.

the day after christmas was spent recuperating. ok. so more like working. for me anyways. i worked 11-5. i was on front register the whole time! i wasn't feeling good. at all. from standing. towards the last hour or so of my shift, but started feeling better once i was out of there and took a shower. daniel took me out to eat at the Olive Garden for dinner! it's been far too long since i've been there. from the looks of it outside, i figured it would be a 45 minute wait, at least, but it was only 20-25 minutes. i couldn't decide between chicken parm and chicken alfredo, so i ended up getting the Tour of Italy, which consists of chicken parm, chicken alfredo, and lasagna. plus their awesome breadsticks, soup, and salad. gahh. i was sickly stuffed. i swear, i've gain 15 pounds the past 4 days!

after dinner, we called up jeremy and it turns out he was over at huey's for his birthday! so daniel ran inside, got his card, then we found our way to huey's. and of course, they had fruit and vegetable plates, and cheese and crackers. whoa now. i wasn't about to touch any of that, lol. hilary and her boyfriend, mike were there too. jeremy liked his card. i'm glad. =) so we just stayed and chatted for a minute then i was getting tired and not feeling my best, so we ended up leaving.

i ended up spending the night at daniel's again. he works 9-3 today. i did some much needed cleanage of his room for him. when he gets out of work, we're gonna go blow some of that christmas money on SHOPPING! maybe christine can come? i'm probably just gonna look around for some new boots and a new purse because i've been needing/wanting one, but i don't get paid until fridaaay. thennnn daniel's suppose to be having people over at his house tonight around 11 after the rents go to bed. but now jenn's sister's car won't start, so it looks like she's not gonna be coming up here. and just THAT sucks.=/ i took off from work and everything. hopefully she'll find a way. if not, then idk.

andddd i would reeeeally appreciate it if MCC would hurry it up and post my grades already!!

hhhhhhhhokay. this was long enough. i better go. i still have to clean up and unpack. thennnn i have to shower and get ready for the day.

bye all!

Christmas Eve

Sun, 25 Dec 2005 06:30:18 GMT

is over.

and now it's offically Christmas!!!

friday daniel worked until 3, so i did my usual friday errands. work. bank. gas. mall. UGH. i got daniel's presents and picked out a card for jeremy's birthday =) then i went to daniel's house and watched murray with his mother and matthew. then i drove out to wendy's to pick sara up from work to take her home, BUT her mom showed up. it's okay though because i got to get FOOOOD! i think my manager thinks i was crazy for showing up for a 3rd time though, lol. so i got a chili and a baked potato and an oreo fix n mix. aaaaaaaaaaaaaand i bought matthew a frosty especially because he just got BRACES!!! when i got back to daniel's, i ate then watched daniel work out some. then i wanted to rent Elf and daniel decided he was hungry, soooo we went to weggies. they didn't have Elf =( BUTTTTTTT they had 40 Year Old Virgin, so we got that and watched it. it was pretty funny. after the movie, me and daniel went up to bed because he had to work 7-3 today. he had 35 hours this week and 36 hours next week.

today was Christmas Eve. i left daniel's AS SOON as he left for work. came home. got online to check something. did some last minute present wrappage. did alot of nothing thennnnnnn decided to do some/fold my clean laundry that's been sitting out. then i showered and got ready. i watched Jingle All the Way. i haven't seen that movie in foreverrrrrrr, but i like it. grandpa came over then had christmas eve dinner, which was maddddddd good because i was STARVING!!! mmmmmmmm. we opened presents then i left to go pick up daniel from work at 3. daniel showered and got ready then we went over to his aunt joanne's. i basically snacked on cheese and crackers all night. we watched ELF!!! and played with their 20 questions ball. it's addicting, i'm telling you. and his mom got so drunk. it was so funny. i had to help her take her boots off, lol!

when we got back to daniel's, we started to watch A Christmas Story. then daniel let me open oneeee present. it was smores couple ornament! that says "1st Christmas together" its so cute! i love it! then i went upstairs, had my usual conversations with daniel's mom while daniel got ready for midnight mass then we left for midnight mass with my family. when we got to my house, i showed my mom what daniel got me for christmas then daniel opened his present from my family... a STAR WARS calender. he LOVED it! my little dork. and i know he wanted it, so that's good too! =D then we went to midnight mass. i always enjoy midnight mass on christmas eve because all it is really is singing. my favorite part HAS TO be lighting the candles then singing Silent Night & of course, the candy canes they give out at the end!

i guess i'm gonna get going to bed. i'm expecting a wake up call from either daniel or matthew telling me to hurry up and come on over, lol. thennnnnnnnnnnnnn after that RACHEL AND KENNY'S! =D

MERRY CHRISTMAS LOVES!!!

bye all!

don't ask.

SO!

wednesday i had my math final from 12:30. i don't wanna talk about it. it was 2 hours long and i was outta there a little after 2. i went and found rob. i WANTED to get some food, but couldn't because everything was CLOSED... except for the bookstore, so i bought some twix and some oreo mini cookies mmmmm oreoooo.

i picked daniel up from work at 3 then we went back to his hizouse until he left to get his haircut. then i worked 5-8. mom came in to give me gas monday. my cousin joe and ray stopped in. then my daniel stopped in to let me know that charles was BEGGING him to come over for his christmas dinner/gathering thing. and asked me to get ready and come over after work. soooo after work, i did. but got some much needed gas first. i got there around 9. by then, sarah and gebo had JUST left.=/ i talked to them on the phone before i got there though, they are too sweet, really.

it was the first time i have ever been in charles' room. charlie got daniel a shirt from hollister that says "major johnson" on it, lol. i met bethany who knows my friend from high school AND college mara, and wayne and sarah. we all just listened to music, sang, cracked jokes, played with toys, shared 'remember when stories...' with were all basically done by charles. a very random time, indeed. very. and OHH! daniel drew sketches of a cameleon for charlie's rufus thinger. all of his sketches looked really very cool.

we left around 10:30 then hit up steve-o's. alyssa and ashley olsen came over. then we all played kings. a definite interesting time. soooo funny, man... just like old times.:-)

today daniel called me at like 7:15ish to lemme know he worked at 11, not 7. then later i ended up taking my sister BACK up to the mall. yeaaaah. i should probably stop doing that right about now. but we stopped into mcdonald's first and i got some food and saw my daniel. anyway. i looked around at price ranges for daniel's christmas present. i thiiiink i'm gonna get him a $50 gift card to express and the family guy 3 DVD and cha. i plan on picking those thingers up tomorrow sometime. so i worked AGAIN 2-8, but laurie let me leave a little after 7ish. joe, ray, and ash stopped in. i swear he just can't get enough of that place! lol. ahh i'm so glad i have the next 3 days off!

i went over to daniel's after work and we talked for who knows how long. it doesn't matter. all that matters is that it happened and i'm glad it happened because we haven't had the time to sit down and actually talk in sucha long time. it definitely HAS TO happen again.:-)

tomorrow daniel has to work 7-3. in that time, me and daniel's mom are gonna pick up his christmas presents then she asked me to color her hair, lol. who knows. anyway. it's late and i'm getting a little weird due to sleepyness so i better be going!

bye all ♥
