and i am so far from sleep its not even remotely funny.
i have class tomorrow [er, today] at 9am, and i have to get up at 7am. yeah...im thinking its not gonna happen. aunt rose is visiting this week, if you catch my drift and she shall be here shortly, but shes making sure that im VERY aware of her presence, so thats one think contributing to my insomnia this evening.
another reason i cant get to sleep is because ive just decided im spending part of my spring break in GA. :) march 5th through the 10th to be exact, and i cannot even begin to describe how excited i truly am. its going to be amazing. i just wish that leanne could fly down as well, then it would be perfect. but, well just have to make due without her and make tons of videos for her. and ill probably make sure we call her at least once.
although ive never flown anywhere on my own before, im not scared at all. i just hate the fact that ill have layovers both ways in charlotte, NC because im sure ill get lost somehow. oh well, itll be worth it.
um...nothing else to report tonight. just thought that maybe if i got that out, i would be free to sleep for 4 1/2 hours before i have to get ready for class.
ps: it can stop snowing anytime now. k thanks.

almost a year...
since i've posted in this bad boy.
you'd think that after a year of not posting, i'd have tons to say, but i'm struggling with what to write.
guess i'll start with school. the past two semesters have been rough and i didn't do too well. but this semester is different. i still lack the motivation and mental drive, but i'm taking two photography classes, a ceramics, and then an online intro to computers class. i really enjoy the photography classes and the ceramics, and the online course is fairly simple, so i can only see this semester as a success. but then again, things happen and all that garbage, so anything is possible. but i'm going to try my hardest to get all a's.
i got two new cameras, a pentax zx-60 [film] and a nikon d40 [digital]. and i adore them both, even though i do favor the nikon. i love being able to develop my own film and all that, but i have to say id rather have instant results rather than play a guessing game. plus, id rather spend 8 hours staring at a computer screen while editing, rather than in the dark with chemicals. but thats just my preference; to each his/her own.
the past year, up until a month or two ago, ive been on a writing binge. everything from random notes, to poems, to short stories or chaptered ones. i used to keep a journal as well, but then i was blogging and everything seemed redundant, so i stuck with technology and ditched the paper for now. but i stopped writing because of the massive writer's block that's made its home in my head. its relentless and extremely irritating. i wish it would leave and ive done tons of different things in attempt to make it disappear, but to no avail. i hope it lets up soon, i miss writing.
i've been a huge hermit crab in the past months, too. haven't seen much of my friends besides random trips to pizza buffets or laser tagging. i just haven't got any desire to leave my house anymore. i could spend days upon days in my room, only leaving to go to the bathroom/shower/eat, and not get bored. it scares me a bit...okay alot. but i dont really think theres anything i can do about it, so i just deal with it.
i hate my job. three years and some odd months at spencers is killing me slowly. i hate my manager. he's a condescending, nit-picking, untrusting douche-bag who needs to go back to akron. no one in the store likes him, and all the customers complain about him. he thinks everyone in the world is below him and he blames everyone else for his mistakes, or for no ones mistake. i could sit here and complain about him for about twenty minutes, but i'll spare the few of you who are going to read this.
and since its already a novel, i'll cut this post short. seems as though i've found some things to write about after all. and i'll leave you with some songs like i used to do. :) thanks for listening to my babble.
ps; I LOVE YOU MARIAH, TORI, AND LEANNE. :)

blahh
so, i haven't posted much recently, and that is because i have a life [or so i like to think] and i've been busy with school, work, and doing little projects around my room. such as this:
its just a simple collage of my friends and some of my family. it was really plain at first, so i whipped out my silver sharpie and colored metallic markers and went to town haha. i really like it though. its just a simple wall hanging that i'll put above the head of my bed when i get the change, but its full of memories and i love pictures. but my finger tips are permanently black from the ink on the pictures and its annoying.
oh well, im going to listen to my simple plan cd all day long like i've already been doing. =]
don't judge me.
peace out.

worthless babbling...
so i tried to go to sleep a while ago, but it isnt working, hence me blogging.
im going to be extremely random right now, so...whatever.
i hate when someone you want to forget about randomly pops back into your life right when you completely forget about them. this has happened to me three times in the past month or two. im getting pissed off...seriously, cut it out. its not funny, no one is laughing...its annoying and rude.
i just realized that i was complaining about it being warm in the winter and now i want to slap myself across the face. its extremely cold here now, and im ready for summer to come. wow, im annoying.
i have a lot of math homework and some sociology thats due wednesday when i go to school, and i havent done any of it yet. and im dreading going to speech, too. i hate speaking in public with a firely passion. i wish that it wasnt necessary for basically everything in life after school. honestly....why do you have to take speech? i think thats just as poinltess as needing a gym class. suck it.
im done for now. my eyes are getting heavy again. ill leave you with some songs:
"Have a Little Faith in Me" - John Hiatt [oldie but a goodie]
"I Wanna Love You" - The Maine [because its funny that they remade a song by Akon]
"So Here We Are" - Bloc Party [because they kick ass.]
Peace Out, Slutbags.
Lyss
ps; sorry for being rude....not =D

Ohio...
I'm not going to start this blog off by complaining about the weather again, because that would be very redundant. But I will say that I am very aggrivated, it's January 7th, and its 65 degrees outside...you can finish that rant for yourself.
So, if you know me, you know that I love Zach Braff, and all of his movies, television shows, ect ect. I recently found his online blog, much like this one, and he always suggests great music and songs to listen to. So, I think I'm going to steal that idea and make it my own. At the end of each blog I'll leave a song or two and who they're by and why I love the song. Not only will it expand your musical taste, but I think it'll reveal alittle more about myself.
Lately, I haven't been hanging out with anyone too much. I don't know what it is that's making me turn into something like a hermit, but I just don't enjoy going out as much as I did in the summer and first semester of school. I think that me becoming extremely lazy has a little something to do with it, but I'm not sure if that's the whole reason. When I do go out with my friends, I have fun and all, it's just actually getting ready and leaving my house that I dislike. Wow, that did make me seem extremely lazy.
So, I think that's enough mindless typing. I still feel weird sometimes when I write these online for everyone to see, but oh well.
Dipset.
Music:
"Gavin's Song" by Marc Broussard
"Honestly" by Cary Brothers
They're both just great songs. I love Marc's voice, it's so unique. And "Honestly" is just a great song.

hello
let me start off by saying that this blog is just a time waster and i'm not sure how often i'm going to use it. my cousin has one and i like reading it randomly, and it made me want to try it out. so, i may like it enough to continuously blog about what's going on in my life, and i may see it as a burden and end up deleting it. well see. =]
anyways, it is december 22nd, 2007 and i couldn't be more disappointed in the weather we're having. i believe it's going to be in the mid to high 40's today. come on, it's ohio when has ohio ever been mildly warm in the winter, its supposed to be freezing and there is supposed to be at least a foot of snow on the ground. thankyou global warming.
i wish this is waht it looked like outside.
thats actually my background on my macbook, i guess you could say it's a bit of wishful thinking.
i'm so not looking forward to today. i have to work an 8 1/2 hour shift up at the mall. ive been working like crazy lately and just the past 2 days ive worked 2-10;30 and 3-10;30. tonight is another 2-10;30, and tomorrow i work 5-10;30. and oh yes, i work christmas eve as well. noon to 6;30. joy.
well, im going to stop procrastinating and actually jump in the shower. i want to look some-what presentable today, i haven't really be caring what i look like at work lately. who do i have to impress, right? some 12 year old kids who think its hilarious to look at all the nudie playboy posters and leave their soda cups everywhere? or maybe the 60 year old men who stare at all the young girls asses when they walk past? no no, how about the 30 year old people who bath weekly and spend their entire life at the mall? now i REALLY cant wait to get to work.
peace love and sugar cookies. =]
