i wish i still loved this thing as much as i used to.
my life is still wonderful. we have moved to a beautiful house that i could've never imagined myself living in...especially at this age. i feel so blessed to have such a wonderful boy, family, friends, career, and just opportunities in my life. :)

i remember when this thing was so exciting. now it's like every 6 months! well, jonathan and i are still together. pretty much spending every minute together. not bad though. joined the gym...have a student teacher. don't have to do too much! i'm quite bored.
almost done with my fifth master's class. over 1/2way through. thinking about venturing outside of phoenix, az. looking into the peace corps.
allison and i are going to chelsea handler this weekend. it'll be the first time we hung out in a long time! just us girls!
family is good, friends are good, life is good.
:)

i'd like to stay that way.

i'm so lacking on updating this. i really want to update for my benefit because i get bored and while i'm supposed to be doing my homework i like to look back on previous entries.
got a house in tempe. it has purple shutters. come visit me.
just got back from wisconsin. nice to see my crazy family. tubing, boating, all that jazz.
back to school in two days...:( not too happy about that. it's soooo hot! i have so much work to do in my classroom.
ummmm....that's about it. right now i'm avoiding cleaning the 5 messes i made while trying to organize. does that make sense?

Sun, 28 May 2006 19:13:41 GMT

i just want to remember that i had a good friday night. poor george, everytime we hang out i'm such a drunk asshole. today i was being sad because i don't even have time to sit down and read the paper...there's always something else to do! so after i finished my homework i went and spent more money on a pair of jeans than i ever have. and i've spent a lot of money on a single pair of jeans. pathetic.
so glad it's a holiday tomorrow. i could use another day...we are going to sedona i think. if we don't have too much fun tonight watching the suns game. that is all.
7 days left of school.

hey i'm doing alright.

Sat, 20 May 2006 22:07:24 GMT

13 more days left of school.
i began my grad classes. did i say that yet? oh man, it takes up all of my "free" time. oh well. i will be done in 10 months.

Mon, 15 May 2006 01:50:45 GMT

is it totally unacceptable that i'm listening to ashley parker angel on the leak on mtv.com?? i'm sad for myself. haha.
happy mother's day. i got my mom a cute outfit for work and took her out to lunch with the siblings. my bro and i sat in the pool for like 10 minutes and the sun took it outta me. i'm ready to move back to flag:(
let's see...only 17 more days of school left. wow. it's going to be the longest 17 days ever. i started my grad classes. time consuming!! that's about it.
and i'm sick and did nothing fun this weekend except a couple jagerbombers after work last night. bleck.

oh man, i started my new job. well, my second job. it's really fun but super hectic right now. made pretty good money so far. my body is sooooo sore because of my 12 mile south mountain hike on sat. for the climb to conquer cancer, then working 11 hours.
well today is the science fair. (yuck) and tomorrow is my observation. yippeeeee. other than that, i have no time to eat dinner, it's very sad. maybe tonight since i don't work. i haven't eaten dinner since like friday. maybe i'll lose some weight!
check ya later!

i will go in this way. and i'll find my own way out.

Fri, 03 Feb 2006 18:23:07 GMT

okay, so i got a second job bartending/serving at a new restaurant opening soon by my school. what is wrong with me? i don't have enough stress? now i just wont have enought sleep? oh, well, a little extra money. i can stop feeling guilty about spending my paychecks since like one of them goes straight to rent. YUCK. i cant wait to buy a house.
okay, so i don't realize how much time during the day i don't sit and am not talking to a 6 year old until i have like 6 people in my room at a time (other than my students)...2 tutors, 2 aides, and 2 students from South Mtn Comm Coll. goodness gracious. they probably think i'll on speed or something.
glad it is friday. always. i am going to dinner with my family tonight. WOO. my lovely friend allison is in vegas for a bachelorette party. rock out!
well whaddya know, my lunch is almost up. ciao.

like a diamond in the sky, how i wonder...

Fri, 27 Jan 2006 18:18:35 GMT

crazy dreams lately.
my fabulous mentor and friend danielle is pregnant. finally! i'm so happy for her. i think her brother is up in heaven working some magic. actually, i know it.
glad it's the weekend. but then i realize that in three more days it's the week again. stressful time.
this weekend should be fun. tonight we're going to watch some wonderful music by some wonderful boys. tomorrow i have a class i didn't go to the first time because teachers went crazy at happy hour and i couldn't get out of bed at 6am on a saturday. so tomorrow I HAVE to HAVE to go! tomorrow night piano bar. good timess.
that's about all.
i'm happy and content. new hair and eyebrows waxed and all.

breathe me.

Mon, 09 Jan 2006 13:14:40 GMT

it's so early and i'm avoiding all of the work i have to do in my class this a.m. first day back to school. it sucks! i'm so tired.
this weekend, well the past straight week, was super fun. i actually got to go out a lot...hung out with kt and the usuals. hit up the big bang. (i must find a bf there!) bowl games and such. my body has to get back in gear! angela and kevin came down from idaho. we had a lot of fun with them and adam and jeff.
oh, and danny bourbon died. :( he was my friend from wi and my homecoming and prom date. :( seriously, if one more person dies, i'm gonna lose it.
i don't really know the point of this post. guess i should get back to work. bye.

the grooms bride is a whore.

Sun, 01 Jan 2006 22:06:59 GMT

happy 2006. it's weird.
i've had the past two weeks off. haven't done much. went to wi for my grandma's funeral. freezing ass cold. i guess her dying was sort of a blessing in disguise since i was forced to spend some time with my family i wasn't planning on seeing this holiday.
christmas was pretty good. i'm getting old and not getting fun stuff anymore. household items is pretty much what i got. i guess that's good...stuff i would never get for myself. i'm just excited to use my one hour massage certificate.
last night was spent with wonderful people. a yummy dinner was made and we went to tempe to the big bang. i love that place. i love that it gives you something more to do than just drink and stare at everyone. we got there pretty early so we got a table. it got pretty crowded fast. than we took a usual $8 cab ride ($30 last night) to bill's. this guy was groping me...i didn't even know him but he knew us from duncan. the fact that he told me that and was still trying to get into my pants was a little disturbing to me. nice friend. FINALLY met holly. i gave her a hug. she might think i'm weird now.
now i'm just playing with cloie while no one is at the parents. deciding what to do. i still have a week off. i wanna go back to the piano bar. now! ALRIGHT. there's my update. check ya later.

we live in a beautiful world.

Wed, 14 Dec 2005 18:22:27 GMT

my grandma dodie died. :( looks like i am going to wisconsin after all :( :( why does everyone i love keep leaving me?!?!?!?

my body does the cha cha cha.

Thu, 17 Nov 2005 04:39:36 GMT

man, i'm such a teacher. it's fabulous.
i'm so lacking in this poor journal. i apologize, self.
what has been then haps lately? flag for homecoming is about the most exciting thing lately. it was really fun. friends from cali, friends from flag and phx. fun times. it was cold. got some fun pics. i miss flagstaff when i go back but i'm about ready to leave after two days. it will always hold a special place in my heart <3
i'm at the family's. i have a conference tomorrow out here and i don't feel like driving in a parking lot trying to get to the north side of the world. i'm a south (east) side girl! woo!
love my kids still more and more. having fun. being a grown up... not completely but getting there. still poor. still pretending i'm not.
when i get engaged or something i'll update. bye!

i've got my things i'm good to go.

Thu, 13 Oct 2005 19:17:28 GMT

i'm at the family's house. these two weeks off have been pretty uneventful. lots of sleeping and cleaning. i'm sure i'll be wishing for them back once school starts again.
i just got an email that danielle's brother bryce died of a herion overdose. i'm so bummed. i feel so bad. she's not going to be back at school until the week after next:( poor girl.
other than that, went to wisconsin. was fun. partied at water street, saw family and friends. regular nip/tuck nights at bill and duncan's. tonight is poker night. saturday is leukemia walk. good times.
well i'm going to eat lunch and play with my snorty puppy. she makes such weird nosies.
bye.

i love you, however.

Thu, 22 Sep 2005 04:21:40 GMT

i used to think teachers were whining and exaggerating about the amount of money they made. but seriously. COME ON. I AM BUT ONE HUMAN AND I CAN BARELY SUPPORT MYSELF. i work my ASS of to live in my apt alone and to drink beer sometimes and to eat and pay my bills. blahhhh. i wanna SHOP!
end of bitching.

bruised.

Thu, 01 Sep 2005 02:17:09 GMT

so it's been a while. woo.
had some good days/weekends. mostly with allison and a little bit of bill and duncan mixed in. went to flag. had fun but not the best situation. um...i go to bed so early every night. mostly because i run out of things to do and places to go by myself. i love my apt. it's cute and big enough for me. i get paranoid sometimes but i always do.
think we're going to havasu this weekend. good times. that's about it. i still love my kids. but it's only been a month! haha.

you can never get him out of your head.

Sun, 07 Aug 2005 02:31:06 GMT

i survived my first week of teaching. wooooooo. we got a new puppy. she is awesome. i hope she never ever grows. i love her. i'm finally moving out of my silly parents house in a week. now that i have the rest of my life together i can focus on my apt. now. i need a flag trip soon. i'm waiting for allison to come over. then we're going to whore around the metro phoenix area.
