8:20 pm	Updates.. blahh Not feel so hot right now.. San Diego was amazing! So happy I got to see Mike, we both needed to see each other very badly. Very happy about that. Worked a lot of things out, and set things up for future. He just needs to come home soon! Job is going well. Few bumps and bruises to be expected, but it's whether or not you're ready to overcome the challenges. God puts blocks in your path, because he knows you have what it takes to press on.

7:35 pm	16 Days til SAN DIEGO!!! I'm so freaking excited I can't freaking wait! Work is great, I decided to wear a bat mask today, and make the girls in the next trail over laugh via window (AKA our Video Phone) I pretty much laughed all day from boredom! And played with wooden carvings of a Giraffe, Elephant, and Zebra. I love my job!! I went to the gym with Mom FINALLY!!! WOOOO HOOO!!!! She did great! Now once day gets rid of the poison ivy in place IT SHOULD NEVER BE, as well as his legs, arms, face, and stomach, then I'll get his booty to the gym! Life is pretty dang sweet! Hung out with Brian last night, which was too funny! Took the chillens to the pond with Megan, which was another riot, went to church, taught family sign class, went out with a few High School buddies.. A very eventful weekend!! Now if only my boyfriend would contact me to give me his new address, then I could send my new phone to him, and pick it up in a week! WOO HOO!!! NEW PHONE! Okay I'm done! LATER TATER TOTS!

7:29 pm	When it rains, it rains it rains Pennies from Heaven! Well hello my fellow lj'ers. So what's new with me? My week has been on the stressful side, but I walked away with a lot more confidence in my interpreting than I did before. Like I said before interpreting isn't easy. And it can become very stressful very quickly. I had a wedding this weekend. Which Marguerite and I set up all by our lonesome. CRAZINESS yesterday for that. However, we ended up having a freaking blast and her husband Mark is going to replace my breaks! Oh how I heart the two of them.. Crazy cats that they are! Basically my week has been filled with job related things. Got to see some of my theatre going UML'ers including Cort.. DORK! (worked for Cheney one last time) Interpreted a big ta-do meeting for the new building we're trying to build at BSD. That went a lot better than I thought, and I finally got to go out and experience the PIP program! And awesome enough one of the place is right down the street from my house! So I get to sleep in a bit during the week. Downside, is that I haven't been able to get to talk with my boyfriend this week. We have so much to talk about and plan. Like his time off, he needs to take time off in August for a wedding, and time off for his sisters graduation in June, and hopefully time off around Christmas, if they'll give it to him. I on the other hand need to plan two more trips out there. (maybe three) One being in April when his whole family goes for April Vaca, the other possibly Christmas if he doesn't come home. Plus I'm planning a vacation during February.. Maybe a cruise or something with a few friends. I'm guessing I'll need a break ASAP! By the time January roles around! Also I bought his birthday gift today, which is tickets to the Pats and Chargers game while I'm out there in October. He's never been to a pro-football game, so I'm excited to work all those details out. Plus I just want to know what the heck he's been doing this week! I'm getting more and more pumped about San Diego, Megan and I call each other everyday with the count down! We both need to pay off our Flights, but we still have a crap load of time to do that. It's going to be a wonderful experience! I can't hardly wait! Life has been pretty freaking great for me! I have auditions October 6th at 6pm for Meet Me In St.Louis! I need to get a hold of Lily, to set up some refreshers for my auditioning pieces. Wish my Luck pupils!! LATER TATER TOTS! (Comment on this)

4:41 pm	Stupid Appendix's! My lil brother had to have his appendix out yesterday afternoon! He pretty much scared the crap out of us! He's the first one out of us kids to have Major Surgery. He can't play soccer for 3 weeks, and his coach, and him are pissed about it. But other than that he's doing pretty damn good! I'm chillen in his dorm right now. I took him home, cooked food, and am now waiting for his friend to get here so I can bounce and head up to Lowell to clean out my office. School starts tomorrow, and I'm nervous and excited at the same time. This week is jammed back with a lot of activities. Friday is the Seafood Festival in Hampton, and I'm going to that. Then there is Jeff Dunham on Saturday at the DCU Center! Can't wait! So far thing are pretty good this month. It's only 2 days in but that means 2 days closer til San Diego! I'm so excited and I can't wait to see my Baby! That's all I have for now. Later Tater Tots (1 Comment |Comment on this)

8:26 pm	It's gonna be a bright, bright, bright, bright sunshiny day! SOOOOOOOO, lets start with Friday. I had my assessment, and it went fairly well. I made a few sign selection errors, but other than that, Kristen seemed to like me, and Mark liked me as well! Leaving Beverly he had made this comment, "If all goes well we'll see you on Monday!" I was SOOO HAPPY! I then drove my booty up to Manchester, NH for my photo shoot. Which came out incredibly well! We took about 600 pictures in a matter of 3 hours! I was very pleased with the turn out, so many great pictures to choose from! I'll post some of facebook, because I need to get my head shot in gear for Portsmouth. After the Photo shoot, I booked my booty to Steph's were I got ready in like 10mins for our friends Birthday. We actually went out to Portsmouth to celebrate! It was great! Minus a bit of a rant towards the birthday boy for treating someone not so nicely! Saturday!! Steph and I took it easy we laid low, sat in the sun, ate lunch, and talked with the cable guy and the kitchen designer. After Comcast left, we found out that 3 out of the 6 computers were not configured for the wireless router! I was heated, the guy didn't even try! So I sat on the phone with comcast in CANADA, for 4 hours trying to work out what was wrong with the computers. I fixed them, but I was heated! Thank God I had such a pleasant customer service person! So sweet! However the best news of the day happened Saturday morning in an E-mail from Mark at Beverly School for the Deaf! I GOT THE INTERPRETER JOB! WOOT WOOT!! I'm so psyched! I can't believe it! THANK YOU MEGAN FOR THE BEAUTIFUL PHONE CALL SATURDAY MORNING! Sunday!! Today was Heather's wedding shower. It was a lot of fun, and great to meet new people that I'll be sharing the day with in a few weeks. My parents cleaned out the basement and I just vegged when I came home, I was exhausted. I start my job tomorrow and I'm nervous, it'll be fun though. Right now I'm chillen. Little bro had his new cleats rip on him and he's barely used them a week, freaking puma! So we just went through heck for that. Poor Marky! Other than that, things are great, Mike is just awesome and things are crazy good! LIFE COULDN'T GET ANY BETTER!! OR COULD IT? Later Tater Tots! Wish me Luck tomorrow!! (1 Comment |Comment on this)

9:33 pm	DISTURBIA! Bum bum bee dum bum bum bee dum dum! That song has been stuck in my head all week! P.S. I love Family Vacation Time! I've been in the Cape for the past 9 days, pretty much living it up with my family, FINALLY having a no rules weekend! Grams and Gramps didn't make it down to the cape! Last Saturday, after my spectacular graduation party, I hit the mall to buy my cousin a black top, because smarty pants didn't bring anything for our bachlorette party in boston! We were supposed to be in black and the bride in white. blah blah.. Anywho, I arrive to find my Grammy's house is flooding from the roof! Everyone is rushing around with buckets and trash barrels trying to save the floors and things! To make a hysterically long story short, they had their roof worked on all this week, and couldn't make it down! Last week, Erin and I had the b. party sat night, Church the next morning to hear Pastor Gordon McDonald preach (He dedicated me when I was a baby, I ate his microphone! He gives wonderful sermons, but deep down is human, and has screwed up with a few things in relation to the church) went to the beach many times, the mall on the rainy day, I had an interview on day, and then took off for the cape. There I was on the beach, mini golf, bumpers boat Got soaked! I made the mistake of attacking this one father and daughter, and he nailed me man! Did a bit of golfing, went out on the boat and got a 22inch Striper! YES ladies and Gents I CAN FREAKING CATCH FISH!! I'm that good! Visited the family I Nannied for last summer on the Vineyard, went to baseball games, went out at night and caused craziness! And laughed way too hard! Right now my life is beyond sweet! I read two surveys from my ex, and the little comments he had made about me, and I started to feel sympathetic towards him. He's completely written me off, and I will say that to a point he's justified for being upset with me, and wanting to keep his distance, however we attend the same church, and sometimes I go to the service he does, and I try to acknowledge him, say hi, maybe a brief convo to be nice and civil. He wants nothing to do with me! I've just become this evil anti-christ to him. It's sad. I guess I just expect more from a fellow Christian. Or maybe that's my problem, I expect too much from people, including myself. I never should have asked him to quit smoking at the beginning of our relationship, stipulations are like a faulty foundation, sooner or later it fails, and things fall apart. Ya I know, I'm admitting I was wrong, but it's nowhere near all my fault. Sorry for the blab... This is my way of reasoning it all out, because I've let go completely. My cousin and I sat down these past two weeks, and really let go and got over our exes. But enough talk of the past! Right now is what is hot hot hot!! Mike finally got his orders, and it was huge weight lifted off my shoulders! He's with a non-deployable unit which is stationed at Camp Pendleton (where he is now). So he moves about a mile or so away from his barracks, and will be there for the rest of term. He wanted to be deployed, so he's a bit disappointed, but his family and I are thrilled! He was really upset and worried about being gone for another 7mths without knowing what kind of contact we'd have etc. Basically if he were to be deployed, he might lose me, was his thinking. I'm happy I get to see him soon. October 9th - 13th I'll be flying out to San Diego to visit for the long weekend! It's been such a long time since I've seen him, and I'm anxious! Hopefully he can get two weeks leave for Christmas and New Years, and then another two in August. I'm excited! I feel better about my cousin getting married. It's just really hard to accept it, especially when I was so upset with him. I really needed him to be there for me with my granpa's passing, and it was really heartbreaking that he wasn't. Or wasn't there the way I needed him to be. I felt like I've been losing him as a friend, and worse off as a family member. I took it out on Nicole. Not many people understand how much my family means to me. I idolized David so much! He's always been my Davey Mike. My world sort of crashed in May! My Grampa started to die, around finals time, and I didn't care about school, I had finished but graduations didn't matter much, I had just lost the greatest man in my world, and a major piece of my Dad. Then there was David's engagement announcement, and I felt like I lost another piece of me. It's so hard to even get yourself in a uplifting mood, let alone be happy for someone else. A part of me still isn't. All I wanted was for Dave to be there, actually there, and it hurt a lot not to have him there. Which in turn added more fuel to my fire of angst. I miss my cousin, I miss our time together, I'm not a very good sharer. And what sucks the most is I know I won't ever have our time again. I can't help but tear up anytime I think about it. I know I've sounded so negative throughout my rant, and everyone has told me the positives.. I know them, but they don't make me feel better, they don't help right now. I tried to apologize to him for my standoffish behavior towards Nicole, but I highly doubt he even remembers it. Sometimes I feel like I'm a chore to him. Maybe I am, Maybe I've made it that way. I just feel like it's all so unfair, and I get so angry! He gets what he wants all the time, it's just so easy for him. That rarely ever happens with me. He's always been the golden boy, who can do no wrong! And I've been the girl that makes all the mistakes. It's taken me almost 24 years to shake that pre-teen image from my aunts minds. blahhh..... My world is really changing, and a lot of things won't ever really be the same again. That's a hard pill to swallow. It's also tough when people don't look at things in the same respect that I do. I get told a lot that my heart is in the right place, I sure hope so, because I can't lose another family member right now. I'm horribly over protective. Sometimes I feel like something just isn't right about this whole marriage thing. David would say, "I'm sorry you feel that way." His usual line. But I can't shake it, and maybe the thing wrong is me. Okay on that note I'm out. Later Tater Tots! (1 Comment |Comment on this)

8:34 pm	Saddness NO comments on my Peter Rabbit Story I felt it was very creative and funny and well just plan amazing! Anywho......Mike lived through the earthquake! Yay My Marine is ALIVE!!! Yesterday I decided to be a goof ball! I think I had sun poisoning of the brain because going to the beach does crazy things to people! My eyes are itchy and I need to take out my contacts like WOAH! My shoulder and right lower back are in pain! Stupid Acupuncture!! If you didn't make me feel so much better I'd curse you!!! But Trigger points SUCK!!! LIKE WOAH!!! They hurt, I don't care what anyone says, they hurt!! But they make you feel like a million bucks after the lactic acid in your muscles goes away! Acupuncture anyone? I can't wait for the gym tonight! Megan and I are going and all I can do is the treadmill and elliptical. I can't really over do it or else I'll be back to square one again with my body! STUPID BODY!!! Anywho.. I'm gonna try and lay down before I go to the gym.. My body needs a break! I LOVE SUMMER TIME!!! Lots to do tomorrow before the grad party! I was gonna buy a keg, but I don't think enough people are going to show up for it. SO Beer Balls it is! Later Tater Tots! (Comment on this)

5:55 pm	RABBITS!!! A BREAK FAILURE STORY ON PETER RABBIT! SO... This is funny/scarey at the same time! My breaks decided to go on me last night while I was driving home! It was AWESOME!!! NOT! I had just dropped off my friend, after we went and saw the Dark Knight together (AMAZING). He happends to live off of a very steep hill! I turned into my neighborhood, and down around onto another street! This is when fluffy little cotton tailed Peter Rabbit decided to enter into a Kamakazi mission of running infront of my car and to the other side. "Cuz we all do it at some point in our lil bunny lives!" ~ He's saying as he runs into the street! However making it to the other side was not good enough for this little Rabbit! He needs to run back under to see if he can piss Ms. McGreger off by completing his mission a second time! This ladies and gents is where I hit my breaks, however my as my car begins to slow down, my foot slides with the peddle to the floor! Yup.. there went my breaks! It is only by the Grace of God I wasn't on that hill! I immediately called home and SCREAMED for my Dad! I made it home by letting my car drive itself (not using the gas peddle) and threw it into park infront of my house! I WAS FREAKED OUT after that! Totally NOT COOL! I do not know if our dear friend Peter made it. BUT HE DESERVES WHAT HE GOT!!! I hope you all enjoyed my thrilling story! Moving on Mike has been on lock down this past week and weekend. Some people from his barracks went UA, that means Unauthorized Absence. Which then calls for an unannouced raid of the Barracks. They found weapons, including a blow dart, and I think a bee bee gun. Anywho, he's been on lock down, not able to have free time, or time to talk on the phone or anything which sucks. After day three of no phone call I got really worried, and knew something was up! Luckily his friend hid his cell phone from the staff sgt. because they collected them all. Anywho I got to talk to him for like 1minute, and he filled me in on the details. He hopes that they'll lift the Lock Down today, so that he can have his freedom back. Lol. He only has 3 more weeks of school, and hopefully he'll get his orders soon, so we'll know when he's coming home. I miss him a lot. I'm also looking for another job. I'm going to keep the overnight as back up, however, that job is just doing a number on me. I constantly feel sick, and dizzy, and I'm not getting the proper kind of sleep. The money is not worth me getting sick all the time. So I applied for an Admin Asst. position at Northeastern. It's in the ASL Dept. Most of the job requirements were what I was doing in undergrad for jobs so I'm familiar with a lot of Human Resources, Payroll, and Budget practices. Right now I'm going to e-mail my old bosses, John,Chuck, Dan, Liana, and Jack. So it'll be nice to have all the references and letters saying I'm do a wonderful job! (hopefully) it's a stretch for me, but I thought I HAVE A BA!!! OMG CRAZINESS!!! + I have a Cert. in Interpreting! I MEAN HELLO BIG GIRL!!! So wish me luck, or pray for me! REMINDER!!!! I'm Having My Grad Party This Friday @4 until whenever! YOU BETTER COME AND ENJOY YOURSELF!!! Details are on Facebook!!! Later Tater Tots! (Comment on this)

8:49 pm	HUMP DAY! Hey Hey, fellow Hump Day goers! This week I have been given and unique opportunity to teach Drama to 1st - 3rd graders this week in Andover, MA. I'm filling in for Julia, while she is on vacation. So far, it's been amazing! The kids are great, the helpers are great, and I seriously couldn't have asked for a better group! Our theme this week is patterns. This is hard for little ones in the way of drama. So we're working on tongue twisters for our show on Friday! At the same time I've been working my overnight job, and going to Lowell. I've decided I'm not going to return to Dr. Cheney in the fall, it's just too much. I'm constantly tired, and it's just not what I want. Other than that, everything has been going well! I can't wait for this week to be over! I start my month off from TLC, which will be awesome. If some of you haven't already been invited, I'm having my grad party, August 1st, which is NEXT Friday at my house starting at around 4pm. I'm buying a Keg, so if you don't like Beer BYOB. Hope y'all can make it! Mike's good, finally got his cell phone back, but he still needs a charger. His Birthday is coming up so I need to find a good gift, and a card to send. I still miss him like crazy though, and hopefully a few more weeks til he's home! Anywho I gotta jet! Later tater tots! (Comment on this)

7:20 pm	Let's Do The Time Warp Agian! CAN WE TALK ABOUT HOW SEXY AND AMAZING CORSETTES ARE? I absolutely loved dressing up for Rocky Horror Show... LIVE!! I got to see Craig, Meg, Johnny, and Christine which was AWESOME!! As well as two incredible shows, Little Shop of Horrors, and Rocky Horror! Sarah came with me and we had a blast! We both looked SMASHINGLY HOTT! And I totally want to go to the show again, just so I can wear my outfit! Totally have a great outfit for Halloween!! WOOT WOOT! Anymawhozzle, I've decided I'm going to get my headshots done, alter my Resume, and send it in to Seacoast Rep! I want to audition for a few of their shows for the 2008-09 Season. Craig says I have a good chance, so I can't wait! Also! Julia Cook, just asked me to take over her Acting Class, teaching little ones ages 7-10 acting! It'll be fun! She needs someone to fill in next week while she's on vaca, and then take over the class in Sept for good (ish). It's in Andover, and the pay is pretty decent. I don't know if I'll be able to take over the July class, but Sept seems pretty doable! On another note, Mike is doing well. I'm a bit worried about his Finances. I don't think he's been putting much money into his accounts to take care of his phone bill, and things. It's like a downward spiral, because he's never been good with his money, and spent it on drinking, and things he didn't need. I'm hoping he's not slipping back into old habbits. Anywho last night was probably the worst for me, I missed him a lot. It's not easy to have a long distance relationship, but my fingers are crossed for the end of August. I truly hope after his training and schooling is over, he'll be stationed in Virgina. At least it's close enough to drive out for a weekend. OH OH! Stephanie got engaged!!! SO EXCITED!!! We went to the Andover Country Club yesterday to check out the reception site, we both fell in love with it! Then after we went to go look at dresses. Totally looking and poking around. However, we have great ideas for dresses, and bridesmaid dresses! She so organized I love it! She's totally helping me plan mine, whenever that is! This is the first wedding I've ever been in, so it'll be great! I have a lot on my shoulders with planning the Bridal Shower, and Bachlorette Party. Good thing it's two years away!! I think I'm going to be smart like her and keep a binder of all the places, and things I'm interested in for my wedding so that when the time comes it's not going to be so overwhelming! Anyways, Work is good, boring as usual, and that's about it. I really need to clean and organize my room! But other than that my life is great! Hope all is well Ladies and Gents! Later Tater Tots!

7:23 pm	Everybody Needs Somebody Sometimes... 4th of July weekend was AMAZING! Thursday I was on the Vineyard with Jamie Lynn! We had a blast on South Beach, and at the Bars. We went to the Lamppost, dealt with drunk guys, got free drinks, then Karaoke at Seasons, Howard bought us drinks all night, and we rocked out! Friday, because Meredith ditched me, I hung out with my cousin Ben all day, went to Walmart, bowled, had dinner, and watched the fireworks! IT WAS AWESOME!!!!! Saturday I went out on the boat with my Uncle Bob-O, my cousins John and Ben, and John's gf and friend. We went Cohogging, and then had AMAZING seafood chowder with our catch! I love the Cape! We Celebrated my Uncle's Parent's birthdays, and then played hand and foot for the rest of the night! Sunday I went out on the boat again, this time we went fishing! I only caught Scup, but hey at least I caught something! PLUS we saw Barbara Walter's house, I think it was on MV. We came back pigged out, and then packed up to go home! I had accupuncture today, the first time my arm has gone numb since the first two treatments I had. I think I overused it in bowling. I also found a leak in the cold water pipe downstairs, causing my Daddy to have to come home, and get a plumber to replace a section of the pipe.. GAY! BLAHHH waste of $200, which I could've done myself! I then posted a crapload of pics on FB, and then took a nap. I'm currently working for Cheney! I seriously can't wait to be done working for her. It's getting to be too much. So I need an opinion, does anyone think, going after an 18yr old when you're 24 is robbing the craddle a bit too much? Because I've been having this tiff with a friend, and I need some opinions! She says she's not sure age should matter if he's mature for his age. I'm not so sure. Anywho, I think I'm going to California in August. I'm quite excited! How's everyone else's summer going? Hope it's good!! Later Tater Tots! (1 Comment |Comment on this)

6:36 pm	Life in the Fast Lane! You slowly lose your mind! So what is new in the world of Bets? Cape Cod was fabulous! I'll be there again this weekend for the 4th and then heading out to Nantucket to visit an old friend! As well as hitting up Martha's Vineyard to visit JAMIE!!! I go back to work this week, which stinks, but at least I caught up on my sleep. Man it sucks to sleep during the day, you lose so much time to do things! On an amazing note! I'M GOING TO PEARL JAM TONIGHT!! WOO HOO!!!! So excited! My friend called me up last minute with a ticket and I took that baby! We're gonna miss the opening act, but whatev. So how's the relationship going? Pretty good. It's hard to get ahold of one another with the time gap. It's funny because I'm finding myself missing him more and more. It is hard to wait for his phone call all the time. I took his sister out for her 21st Birthday last week, it was a damn good time! My friends liked her, and that was crazy great! With the exception of the 40yr old creepies! HAHAHA Why do I always draw the attention of the old guys? Speaking of relationships, my ex Dan and I had another tiff. I just can't understand why, or how a fellow Christian can completely treat you as if you never existed? It sucks, maybe I'm expecting too much from him, however, we go to the same church and I just feel that we should at least be civil, and awknowledge one another. Some of my friends, labeled it as immaturity on his part, and not being over it. I feel that you're never truly get over a relationship, but you can move on. I don't know, to me and how I was raised no matter what someone says or does to you, you treat them as you would like to be treated. Mainly it just sucks. I can't say that every comment out of my mouth about him or towards him has been nice, because it hasn't. Sorry just needed to vent and get that off my chest for good. Maybe one day I'll be able to understand him, and why he must be the way he is. Just a darn shame. Oh well, moving on! Summer is pretty awesome! Hope all of yours is awesome as well!

11:20 pm	You must be the chnge you wish to see in the world. ~Mohandas Gandhi That's today's quote on the calender page! So What changes have happened in my life recently? You all know about my new big girl job, the overnights are a pain, but I'm getting used to them. I keep thinking I have to go to school, or do something else, but I don't! I just have to sleep! Recent big change, is that I'm in an open relationship with my ex from highschool, Mike. It's nothing too serious, and by open I mean open. We like one another and have still cared for one another after we split, but he had a lot of changing and growing up to do, as did I. Now 5 years later, he's a Marine and I'm a college graduate. We've both changed a lot, so we're going to give it another go. And it's a very open relationship, because, well, he's in California as of Thursday, and I'm here in Mass. SO right now our relationship will be focused on communication and really getting to know one another. It'll be a sweet change of pace, because I'm sick of the physical interaction that is always expected with some guys. It truly does get old. Most guys don't really care who you are, they would rather enjoy what you are first! I'm all set with being treated like a piece of meat, it's degrading! Anywho, Job is cool, Still working for Cheney, that gets hard. But hey, money is money right? I go to the Cape this weekend, which I'm really looking forward too. And then I hve a week off so I'm beaching it up and going out with friends I haven't seen in a long time, and miss dearly!! Do me a favor, for those of you who pray, or like to keep people in your thoughts, Keep a few of my friends in your prayers, Some are going through rough break ups or serious medical issues.

6:53 pm	I Kissed A Girl and I Liked It! The taste of her cherry chapstick I kissed a girl just to try it I hope my boyfriend don't mind it It felt so wrong It felt so right Don't mean I'm in love tonight I kissed a girl and I liked it I liked it That my friends, is a very catchy song! It's been stuck in my head all day! So tonight is the first night of my new job at The Learning Center in Framingham! I think people should text me or send me e-mails to keep me awake. It's gonna be hard, because I'm tired now! So Lovey's what's new in the world of Betsy? NH was amazing! I went to Whitefield, NH with my friends Cort, Ronnie, and Sarah! We had a freaking blast! I felt so good after Hiking! It was awesome! I nuked a mouse and her nest of babies! Ronnie and Sarah took care of the aftermath! I also burned a lot of ticks! It was SWEET!!!! Last night I went to the Drive Inn in Mendon, MA! We saw "Don't mess with the Zohan" & "Iron Man"! It was WAY too much fun! Seriously the only way to see a movie!! Wednesday Sarah and I are going to go to the Beach. Somewhere along the North Shore. I'd really love to find a new place to go and enjoy myself, so we'll see!! Being a college graduate is crazy! So much paper work and stuff to do! The best advice I could give, is don't worry so much about a job, because the less you worry, the more likely it is that something will fall into place for you. Things will happen as they are meant to I believe. So where am I in my love interests? Single, Mingling, and having fun! I've recently decided to just let a few things go. I'm going to allow something to fall into my lap this summer. Summer of 2005, I had the best thing fall into my lap. I'm going with the laid back attitude! I've waited patiently for someone, and they've chosen to let the issue work itself out, which it won't! Anywho I am gonna bounce!! Have fun and stay cool and hydrated guys! Later Tater Tots!

4:45 pm	Oh HAPPY DAY! Oh Happy Day! (Oh Happy Day) Oh Happy DAAAYYY (Oh Happy Day) When Jesus washed (when Jesus washed) When JESUS waaashed (when Jesus washed) Washed my Sins away (Oh happy Day!) Ya So today was relaxing, and utterly amazing! Nothing special happened, nothing special needed to happen. It's just been an amazing week! Monday and Tuesday I did homework and finished up most of my classes for the semester! YAY GRADUATION!!! Wednesday I went to the Farm with Cort and Ronnie. Which was beyond beautiful in itself! I heart farms! And we had Venison, YUMMY!!! Thursday was another day off, and Acupuncture.. DUDE.. AWWW ACUPUNCTURE!!!! For anyone who has been around me in the past two years, they've seen a significant change in my behavior and attitude. I've been mean and bitchy and just snappy. I haven't put up with people's crap, and I've been really really stressed out, and emotional! Then I needed to fix my elbow issue, and I've gone to Acupuncture.. She's done stress release points, energy flow, and muscle trigger points. I have Engery, my Metabolism is way up, and I just feel really good! I feel like the high school me again.. However I don't have Sarah, Andrea and Colleen Yelling at me for NO PERKINESS BEFORE 10AM!! I only have two more shows.. and I'm becoming a bit saddened by it all! I'm going to miss YAGMCB! As well as the cast. This is my last show as a student, and it's sad. However I don't think I'll be like past OBPers and never come back.. I may audition next year along with Cort, and stuffs. And try to help out when I can. I'd love to do that. OBP is headed in a wonderful direction, and I'm happy to be apart of that legacy!! Another reason why I'm happy?? It's Spring and there's a new chapter beginning for me. I'm graduating, and I'm moving on from my past. I feel bad, about my past relationship, and sometimes feel like an idiot for not stepping back while in the moment and fixing the issue. However, what's done is done, and hopefully with tomorrow on the horizon we'll both be able to put it behind us, forgive, and move on. For some reason, I feel really right about everything that's happening with me on the side lines. For once, I feel like this is the right direction for me, and I'm really confident about my future! It also helps when you have people constantly telling you that they believe in you! A part of me wants to cry out of sheer joy!! I need to thank every single on of my friends, and family members, teachers, and co-workers for their constant love and support. Without you guys I really don't know what I do. I feel like I'm accepting an award! haha.. So that's my life at this point and time.. Really Really looking back appreciating it all, and so excited to face tomorrow!! Through the bad and good, I've learned, I've grown, I've matured, and I have you to thank for it. God Bless! LATER TATER TOTS!! (1 Comment |Comment on this)

7:09 pm	It's Crunch Time People! So... What's going on with the Bets? 3 weeks left of school at NECCO! I still have 2 powerpoint presentations, 1 Research Paper and 1 Book Report due. UML is about the same. I have 1 research paper due to complete a class I took last semester. Doesn't seem like a lot, but it is. I still need to do research, and present my powerpoints in ASL, and also read the book. So it's crunch time. It also doesn't help that we're in Hell week of our show. I'm so siked for it to go up. However, I'm wiped, and my allergies are driving me nuts. I worked hard this weekend, along with Cait, Annie, Mark, Emily, Nani and others on set design and prop work. Last night we had head shots in full costume and makeup. Trust me I look Like a weird Mime! lol!! Tomorrow I need to go to I-party and get more Black hair spray.. yes I go Black for the show. I also need to get White and yellow spray for Nani. I'm stressed and pooped. It's difficult to keep up with everything, and it doesn't help that I procrastinate.. Motivation and myself, are not two peas in a pod. So my hope is that all of you, my friends and peers, will be able to join my fellow cast mates and myself and seeing the Musical Production of, "You're A Good Man Charlie Brown" Dates: April 17th - 20th, 25th - 27th All Shows are @ 8pm, except for Sundays @ 2pm. Tickets are $5 for students and senior citizens, $10 for adults I'm pretty sure 5yrs and younger are free. We've all put a lot of effort into this show and I'd greatly appericate everyone coming, it's VERY VERY KID Friendly and such a wonderful show! To wrap things up, my life is still crazy, with Physical Therapy and Acupuncture for my arm. Which are helping, and loadang up my schedule. Last Thursday I got my Acupuncture, and Friday it hit me like a ton of bricks. I had absolutely no energy or strength in my body, plus my arm was in a lot of pain. However the past few days have been decent. Saturday after PT it killed! But as I was working on the show, I had no numbness or pain and same with Sunday, and most of today is the same, however, tonight I have numbness, because I've been using the computer.. pressure on the desk.. blah.. My Birthday is Thursday! I'm very excited to Open the show and Have my Birthday.. It's really a FILLED day. BAA in the Morning, Acupuncture @ 4:30, Call @ 6, and Places at 7:55. So this means I need to be KNOCKED OUT early! Wednesday. My hope, is that I can take the Commuter rail from Wakefield into North Station, Hop the green line to Kenmore, and then back track from there. Since my Acupuncturist is right next to the Commuter rail in Wakefield. Okay.. I'm a babbling mess... So I should jet. However, I will say this. It's really sad to have that person you'd tell everything too, and then not have them anymore. I'm not saying I don't have friends I vent to, or just talk to about things, but rarely do I have that one person I tell EVERYTHING too. And I truly miss that. Later Tater Tots (Comment on this)

7:21 pm	Monday Morning came without warning! Today was a tired day. Everything felt heavy, and I feel like I've been overheating constantly. blahh! Things have been pretty decent. Tough, and stressful, especially with the new diagnosis of my right arm. Anywho, I wasn't myself this weekend, and in an a desperate moment, I called and texted my ex. It was stupid and unwanted by him, I'm sure. I can't do that anymore, however, this weekend I was really scared in concerns to my arm. I wanted someone to listen. So, if Dan reads this.. I appologize for trying to contact you. The musical is taking it's toll. I'm exhausted, and pushing myself, but it's just not good enough for my directors. So I have to go deeper. It also doesn't help that I'm in senior-itice mode, not wanting to even bother with school anymore, and I'm so close! I don't even know what I'm going to be doing with myself after I graduate! ......I think I need a professional organizer! This weekend I have the girly girls. I'm looking forward to hanging out with them. If anyone wants to join us for a movie friday night, let me know! Well lovies, that's all I have for now. Later Tater Tots! P.S. Davey Mike, missing you cuz! (Comment on this)

10:03 pm	Wrap up! I'm not even gonna feed into the bs that is going on with friends of mine. All I can say is things like that are always going to happen. Just check back almost two months ago when Dan and I broke up. Anywho.. focusing on my for the moment. Spring Break was amazing!! I did everything and anything for me and only me. I went to the Cape on St. Patrick's Day, after working for most of the day I randomly decided to drive to the cape to hit up Liam McQuire's!! P.S. AMAZING!! I love Liam's! I also spent most of tuesday on the cape! Wednesday and Thursday I spent interning in Boston at BAA (Boston Arts Academy) I truly LOVE it there! And don't want to stop attending BAA as an intern when my schooling is over. Hopefully they'll allow me to continue until the end of their school year! Thursday night I went up to DWC to see Dana and the boyz!! It was fun! I missed them so much! Friday I slept in, my car was in the shop, and I just lounged.. I waited for Adam to call me to go out and get lunch.. which turned into getting my car. I love how I send it in for one thing and a bunch of serious things pop up! Like my barrings.. and having to get 3 new tires! YAY FUN!!! Then I went to Church. It was wonderful! Even though I was late..and I couldn't see the interpreter at all it was good! Saturday I went flying with Adam, which was A MAZE ING!!!!!, and baked my birthday cake, which he helped decorate. After that we went out to the Merriot Hotel, had a few and the migrated to the Sesh.. blahh I dislike going there. I enjoy Derek, the bar tender, but I'm not a huge fan.. Sunday was Easter! I had a great time at church with everyone, and then going up to Grammy's house for Easter celebration and Birthday Celebration. It was nice.. This week has sort of been blahhish.. Tuesday I had a doctors appointment about my arm and ankel.. there's nothing he could do for the ankel except recommend strengthening exercises. However my arm is a different story. I have an Allna Nerve entrampment. The Allna nerve is your funny bone, and for me I've either over stretched it with signing or it's always been in a bad place. So right now he wants me to have Physical Therapy and Acupuncture. And if that doesn't work I have to have an envasive surgery where they go in and litterally move my Nerve. Big scar! lol and also if they screw up I could lose most of the feeling in the lower half of my right arm. Needless to say I'm scared and really hoping Physical Therapy works.. I have a lot of praying to do, and just give it all over to God. I know things will turn out they way they're going to, but it's really scarey to think about. I just don't like this feeling of everything I've been working towards to be all for nothing. That's really upsetting to me right now.. anywho.. I'm really feeling the pressure for the show, and I'm totally scared we're gonna be so far behind.. man I just want it to go well! I need it to go well!! Other than that.. I'm okay.. trying to keep my personal life seperate from the rest of what needs to be done.. blahhh.. I've also found myself thinking about Dan again.. more along the lines of a dream I had. Where we were both at Good Times and I was leaving with friends and he was smoking a butt. And as my friends walked to the car I walked up to him to ask him a question and the conversation went as follows: "Dan, I have a question I'd like to ask, if that's okay?" He just looks at me "You don't have to answer, I just want to ask it." "What?" "Do you miss me at all? or ever get that feeling?" Again he just looks at me, for a long time. "I'm not gonna lie, Dan, I do." He takes a puff of his butt blows it up and to the right and looks back at me. I can't read his face, and I'm not sure I want too.. "Well I need to get going, but I wanted to let you know, I've never hated you, and I do miss you. You can take it however you want, but I can't keep it in anymore. Night!" I turn and walk away, and I don't turn around.. and as soon as I get in the car I lean my head up against the window and look up at the sky.. Just thanking God for that opportunity. Weird??? yea agreed. I do miss him. As a friend, romantically in some ways, etc.. I'm not sure really how to break it down yet.. But I do know I miss his company. Okay well That's it for now!!
