seriously

So..i'm seriously bored sittin' at school...and on top of it I'm on drugs..yep...I have this not good cold ..actually i can't figure out what it is..but i know it involves aching, sneezing..sleepiness...a sore throat this morning ick, and some funny head feelings...so I did something yesterday I havent' done in a long time. I took some medicine, drank some green tea, and got into bed at 7:30...you know something is wrong when I go to bed that early! Then this morning I had this brilliant idea.....to take the rest of my prescription medicine that I should have taken when I had strep throat recently..ha...what a smart girl! NOT!! Who knows...oh well...i'm takin' medicine and drinkin hot tea all day and crossin' my fingers..cause tomorrow is gonna be a long day..and so is Friday for that matter! I can make it...I can make it!!


To make matters even more interesting I wake up to a message from a friend tellin' me to bring them some brownies..now what fool thinks I am gonna get up out of bed..and cook brownies and go deliver them :-P ?? haha... oh well...maybe tonight...I need somethin to look forward to in this dreary week...

Dude..I need a nap..gettin' up at 5:30 makes for a sleep girl....

just gotta make it till 3 oclock..then its shower and nap time..in my clean apartment which is gonna smell nice cause i'm goin home to light candles..yay!! Relaxin' afternoon ahead....


And...on a more serious note I so haven't found my halloween costume!! I gotta get on that....

coffin

A man was walking home alone late one foggy night,

when behind him he hears:


!
BUMP...




BUMP...




BUMP...





Walking faster, he looks back and through the fog h e makes out the image of an upright casket banging its way down the middle of the street toward him.




BUMP...





BUMP...





BUMP...






Terrified, the man begins to run toward his home, the casket bouncing quickly behind him





FASTER...





FASTER...






BUMP...







BUMP...






BUMP...





He runs up to his door, fumbles with his keys, opens the door, rushes in, slams and locks the door behind him.








However, the casket crashes through his door, with the lid of the casket clapping










clappity-BUMP...






clappity-BUMP...






clappity-BUMP...





on his heels, the terrified man runs.





Rushing upstairs to the bathroom, the man locks himself in. His heart is pounding; his head is reeling; his breath is coming in sobbing gasps.



With a loud CRASH the casket breaks down the door.









Bumping and clapping toward him.





The man screams and reaches for something, anything,
but all he can find is a bottle of cough syrup!









Desperate, he throws the cough syrup at the casket...



















and,

















(hopefully you're ready for this!!!)





The coffin stops

studyin'....ya....

discussing apraxias....
Shannon~what's alexia??
Me~ that girl with the big boobs that lives next door!

during one of many study breaks...
Shannon's Message on the study whiteboard:
Brooke,
Halloween called to say that it is canceled this year because you've been giving candy out to trick or treater's all year long.


Shleby~is that hoss?


basically..its all about attention...and givin' it out like candy :-P


Procrastination at its finest :-P

Ok, so instead of studyin'....I was lookin' back at this life journal i used to write in..and I liked this one that I wrote a little over a year ago....time flies, but things haven't changed all that much :-)

Aug. 5, 2005







Remember when you were a kid, and watched the little mermaid?? (over and over) There was always that part where they were in the boat where you just wanted to scream at them to kiss...I mean, you knew they couldn't hear you, and you knew they weren't gonna because of those stupid eels, and no matter how many times you watched it you just knew this time they were really gonna KISS! Its crazy isn't it that even though we were that young, we understood that feeling. The excitement of anticipation, wanting so much to share a moment, something special with someone else. Somewhere...in all of the pains of growing up, and the thoughts and responsiblities of the world that come crashing in....i think we lose a little bit of that feeling, of knowing how important it is to be that close to another. Seems like life get's to be an ongoing rerun of Dawson's Creek....I guess right now...I'm hoping mine will go back to being a little more like The Little Mermaid.....even if a few eels do get in the way every now and then.....

shannon and i are goin nuts

LitlBlondie (2:03:20 PM): i need a massage
LitlBlondie (2:03:22 PM): practice on me
StarqueenAnsn (2:03:25 PM): ok
LitlBlondie (2:03:25 PM): i'll take off my clothes
StarqueenAnsn (2:03:28 PM): i will
StarqueenAnsn (2:03:35 PM): we can turn the lights down low
StarqueenAnsn (2:03:39 PM): put on some soft music
StarqueenAnsn (2:03:54 PM): play a game called just the tip
LitlBlondie (2:04:12 PM): just for a second
StarqueenAnsn (2:04:30 PM): just to see if we like it

mermaids and randomness....

Currently Watching...


So it was a pretty good low key weekend, which was definately needed...I kinda will have to say that I had sort of an overload of UE Review of Anatomy Today...although typing every word the dude says is rather tedius, time consuming and recquires entirely too much focus for me...the dvd is useful so i'd recommend it for review...




but i've had enough of it for one day...or maybe even for a very very long time. :-P


so random quote from the movie we're watchin' right now....

"are you tryin' to bury your finger?"
"I'm just tryin' to put it in the whole and cover it up"
"That would be called a burial mom"


Um yea..she cut off her finger with a kitchen knife on purpose and put it in a mayonaise jar...umm hu..good movie..ha

Also amusing as the future hand therapist beside me shreiks at the site of a chopped off index finger..ha..can't wait till she works on me one day! :-P


at the moment i'm anxiously anticipating the next commercial so that i can reheat my hot chocolate..which will be most likely the second most exciting thing i've done all day, the first being going to the grocery store for about the third time this weekend!!

Oh wait..we did cook breakfast this morning..and that was rather exciting..and yummy...doesn't take much for me ha!


I'm just tryin' to figure out what's the big deal with this silly chair?? Saved some island?? what the heck? oh well...
and now the monks are singing...it just get's better and better

and the fun im conversation going on at the same time...

swrill (8:06:21 PM): not OSU v. Texas
LitlBlondie (8:06:25 PM): nope
LitlBlondie (8:06:28 PM): who cares about them?
swrill (8:06:34 PM): me


ooooo commercial...gotta go reheat the hot chocolate!
ok so i would be the one who doesn't heat it enough the first time and then BURNS my freakin' tongue the second time!! geez


its been a rather eventful weekend in the kitchen which usually doesn't happen....

Things I cooked this weeekend:
Okra
Yellow Rice
Noodles for pasta salad
Terryaki chicken and rice
Mexian Rice and Chicken with black beans
Asian Chicken and Rice bake
Chocolate Chip pancakes
and shannon cooked the cheezy eggs to go with!


I would have to say I have this theory now...days that begin by making chocolate chip or blueberry muffins, or chocolate chip pancakes...always turn out better than days without them.



Another quote from this fabulous movie..haha

"embrace the test...not the woman"


ooo and moes was super good the other day..and so was starbucks and scrabble even though BrEe CHEATED!! I'm just warnin' ya'll....if you're gonna play scrabble with Bree you need a very large dictionary, and you need to watch out cause she will slip in little abbreviations, proper nouns..ooo and she wants to use french too even if you don't know french!! She's a sneaky one!!


Voodoo was fun last night too..a change from the usual spots we chill....besides the fact that the waitress seriously studied my ID and still didn't believe I was 21...she didn't have to say it...we all knew it.



ok..well, guess its time to get back to the movie...

psychosocial poetry.... :-P

The adventures of Shell-dawg, giraffe and weenie dog...

This girl named shelly she was watchin' the telly
got a cravin' for a raisin so she put it in her belly
Later in the day when she wanted to creep
she was walkin' down the street and lookin' at her feet
so she didn't make the bus and she started to fuss
but this really hot guy came and gave the girl a ride
she hopped into his car but they didn't get far
cause she recognized him now from the tv and said wow
Nick lachey its really you
i got this chick she'll be your boo
her name is april brooke..it will only take one look
and you'll take her home to mom cause this chick she is the bomb
just let me get my cell cause this girl i gotta tell
so she went to find Brooke she was with ET
They were out ridin' dirty on the north charleston streets
they had gone to get some cream cause it tastes so nice
on the way they had to stop cause they needed a slice
of juicy hot pizza cause those chicks had a cravin'
they weren't like shelly they don't need no raisin!


to be continued...

I'm BaCk!

umm...I've been a little slack on the blogging lately...I know this..but I've been havin' lotsa fuN!



So class started yesterday...yesterday?? Wow that already seems like forever ago...dang haha

The pirate party was fun :-P We definately still have remnants of pirate decorations scattered about our apartment.

The weekend was fun..loved the beach...(note to self do not go back to off the hook....just wait for a table at PoE's!)
Wild Wings was fun as always...really liked the band!! And surprise suprise we're goin back to wild wings this SATURDAY!!! Yay!! Saturday should be a blast...Charleston boozapalooza then headed to the wing!

This morning's class was good..I enjoyed the guest speaker...and then I laughed quite a bit in the next class due to Dr. Mitcham's witty sayings!

For instance:

"You can use those words after the third martini...before that....I would choose a synonym."

"There's more than one way to skin a banana"

Then Bree and i found an adventure..surprised?? We went to go move our cars and were patting ourselves on the back for the brilliant move that would enable us to leave class oh so much quicker and avoid riding the bus at six oclock. However...being the genius little blondes that we are we quickly figured out upon arrival at our cars that we still had 30 minutes before we could park in the parking garage...so....what do we do?? Of course we walk to arby's! Woohoo..and boy were they slow slow slow! But we got a free milkshake out of it! Super! ha..fun times at the MuSc...haha


Now...its almost time to go to upper extremity elective which will surely prove to be hilarious because Peter and Dr. Thomas are teaching it together..they are gonna be sooooo cute I can't wati! haha....I'll have to update on it afterwards...

then I am gettin the heck out of here to go home and put on some blue jeans (not a big fan of professional dress).....and then possibly go get some ice cream?? (that's fine...you can make fun of me i don't care I can handle it!! :-P)

I must admit that I personally measure success in terms of the contributions an individual makes to her or his fellow human beings.

cookies and commodes


Sadness...I burnt the cookies!! I was really tryin' to do good...its like my Mom always says...I try to do good..but I do bad...or maybe its like Rhianna...

Story of my life Searching for the right But it keeps avoiding me Sorrow in my soul cause it seems that wrong really loves my company

ok..well, maybe its not that dramatic..but at the time it seemed so....i was like oh shoot guys the fire larms bout to go off..and I took off for the door with the dang burnt cookies...Its ok tho..we're past that now..we've moved on to laughing at shelly.....













This would be good ole shell-dawg...she sure knows how to tackle a toilet problem..and get this folks...she isn't afraid to DIVE right in with her BARE HANDS to get the job done!! She gon make some man a gud wife one a these here days dontcha know!!


Fun times!

oh my gosh!

You guys!!! Oh my gosh..I seriously can't believe this is our last week of classes. Exams next week and then its our last school of semester...i mean semester of school!! haha..see its freakin' me out!! i can't believe it!

So today was a good day...got up..drank some coffee with hazelnut cream and whip cream on top..yum..i'm a coffee maker i am! Then i worked on those vicious neuro questions that no one is done with yet! uh huh...then watched the first half of titanic..slightly silly i know but I've actually never seen it so it seemed like the thing to do. Got antsy so i went and FINALLY finished getting the last stuff from the move out of my car..woopeee!! Yay for me..and actually sat up my seats so i have a normal car again...yay about that.

Tried to work on some neuro some more..wasn't happening at all...so... i convinced shannon to accompany me to Food Lion...a special stop at our "candy shop" hee hee...and then to dolla tree where we hit them up! Ya i'm crazy but we did have fun. We came back all excited cause we got a microphone for our band!! however...the plug on that thing is a lil big so we have to regroup and come up with a new idea...hmmm...either an adapter(not likely) or we need to get a new mike...ya prolly the latter of the two....

Then we had to leave for class..blah..where we have been learning about sex...and poop..not the most exciting thing ever....
Shannon has been planning our porch party for the weekend during class tentatively scheduled for saturday...prolly i should figure out what day our exams is/are?? haha..prolly

ET is tryin' to convince me to to eat after class...but..i'm thinkin i should take my lil behind home and try to finish this neuro stuff and work on the other two assignments that I've blocked from my mind...hmmm...ya maybe that with a lil law and order...sounds like an exciting night to me!! guess i should go try to pay attn now...
i love summer wish it would never end!!!

starbucks inspiration for shleby

So..I was tryin' very hard to be productive this afternoon...I went on over to the food lion to get me some groceries now that we are in the new apt!! So i get my buggy all full with my stuff and I'm walkin down the isle...with the detergent...very exciting isle....and all of the sudden the lights go out..and the bottom falls out of the sky. So they tell everyone to come to the front of the store...and i'm like pushing my buggy tryin not to hit things in the freakin' pitch black dark and there is another guy on my isle and it is just creepy!! So they all scurry around makin calls and stuff and everyone's standin up front with their buggies and i can here this guy who works there sayin' "they tryin' to send me to the back..i ain't goin back there in the dark...dangerous"...well a few min later they are like "we need everyone to leave now..thanks"...so i left.....being that there was no electricity at our apt either i headed on over to the publix to "re-shop"...i'm not sure if that is a word...but that is totally what i did...so i kinda had two fun grocery shopping trips today and now i kinda think maybe sometimes it is better to take a friend with you just in case you end up in the dark!
So i survived and came back to the apt...and we chilled out for a bit...with no power..and then Shelly took me to STARBUCKS!! best part of the day yo! That white mocha was soooo good and i definately needed it! ne ways on my cup was this little saying and I told Shelly I'd put it in my blog just for her so here goes!

The irony of commitment is that it's deeply liberating- in work, in play, in love. The act frees you from the tyranny of your internal critic, from the fear that likes to dress itself up and parade around as rational hesitation. To commit is to remove your head as the barrier to your life.
--Anne Morris


So now Et has come over and our power is back and she and shelly and shannon and I are all chillin' in the living room watching practical magic!! Gotta love those midnight margaritas!!


1st night in the new apt!! GOtta make it a good one....definately been the kinda afternoon that makes ya wanna cuddle up with someone special...
night ya'll

thankful

wow what a whirlwind weekend!! Seems like I haven't even had time to breathe!!

It began really with camp on Friday morning...we knew it was going to be a long long....long long...very long busy day..but I don't think we could have begun to prepare ourselves for how very long it actually was.

The waterpark was CRAZEE but lots of fun as well!! One of my favorite days at camp so far!!
Poor Bree..i was feelin' bad for her though...bein hungover that day had to be sheer TORTURE!

Then there was wildwings....Note to self: Never Eat Wildwings before MOVING!! BAD IDEA!
Fun..but a very very very bad idea. So after a much needed break and lunch/dinner at wildwings...Shay Shay and I headed back to the apartment to get our move on!!

And...we are so so so lucky and blessed to have friends!! Because shortly after we started moving Christina showed up to help and then shortly after that Sam showed up with his truck!
Christina's new name is "hoss" bc the chick can sure carry some furniture!! We must have made a million trillion trips up and down stairs with all manner of things and truck rides back and forth ....by the end of the night every part of us was aching!! We finally pooped out cause we couldn't do ne more! So the four of us crashed ....Shelly's parents brought us drinks from SONIC, and tina got her some chinese..then all four of us drug our worn out behinds to the pool for a little night swimming which turned out to be more like night vegging in the pool. we were too tired to move!! Afterthat our faithful companions went home and shannon and i camped out in the living room on the couches cause we had no beds haha....and she put in a scary movie "when a stranger calls"...fun times....we woke up in the morning and after a cup of coffee we were back at it hard and strong again!! No showers even..we were hardcore and Sam and christina were back again to help us finish...we all worked our tails off! And Shelly's parentals were really sweet too her Dad took down my curtains and put them back up for me!! He did call me a redneck once...but I'll forgive him for that...cause i laughed when he fell up the stairs..haha...shelly did too!...laughed i mean...
So ne ways...when the moving was almost done we had PIZZA for lunch...i love pizza by the way...seriously love pizza!! Then we all took a short rest break and had a lil much needed quiet time. I really didn't think I was gonna make it that there was no way I could do ne thing..but we pulled it together..got ourselves dressed and headed out to Carisa's for her Redneck/Moonbounce party! I am sooooo glad we went it was a blast!!

I have to say that having a moonbounce was like the best idea ever!! it was quite fun...the whole night was!! It was good to see everyone and shannon was hilarious with her dale earnheart getup....Jenni and Lauren brought the cutest lil OT cake and Shannon and I.....as usual hung in till the end...heck we spent the night!! We're like those gests thta never leave!! Haha...

Shannon made some big steps towards her fear of dogs...We almost let cooper sleep with us..but she said no..haha....

Oh and this morning was great when Carisa's husband came walkkin into the kitchen in a speedo!! I just covered my eyes..haha they are CRAZY....but so are we so its all good....

Moe's for lunch was perfect!! Went back on over to old 621 and finished gettin' the rest of our junk!! We are finally DONE!! yay!! We are moved in woohoo!! finally done!! i'm a lil excited bout it!!! So i should try to get some work done now but i'm just plain pooped....did i mention i love pizza? So I may wash a little clothes..do a little work..watchin a little lifetime...you know how it goes!! Maybe make a fun lil trip to the food lion....gotta love Sunday afternoons after a very busy...but very good weekend...at the moment i'm just very thankful
i'm a lucky girl to have people who care about me and will be there for me when i need them :-)

aqua shaped dreams of optimism

so tomorrow is the waterpark...beaver reunion shortly after at wild wings, and then workin' our behinds off to move our junk!! I can't even imagine what the day is gonna be like.....i'm sure there will be stories...

lesson of the night is...friends are important...even if they make u watch really bad bad corny dorky sappy bad movies...they can save you from having to marry some evil blow fish and help you find love with the man..i mean boy..you choose




on a serious note...i was thinking.....i'm afraid i'm in fact an idealist...i imagine that is why i have chosen the career that i have....however I am also that way in thinking about others and the future. I have this picture in my head of what I expect someone to be like..I always have such high expectations of others.....and I guess this makes it easy to be let down...but what's the alternative?? I think I'll stick with assuming the best ..picturing the future to be everything that I hope...and who knows?? Maybe one day I'll be shocked to find things are even better than I could have imagined.

Unrealistic? Maybe...but quite happy to stay that way!

The Hungry Caterpillar ate Andolinis!




So the Hungry Caterpillar was a success afterall!! It was soooo crazy but lots of fun also!






So glad the three amigos could make it!!



It's been a super busy day...really enjoyed the talk we had from "the General" this afternoon...both of the speakers we have had this week have really made me do a lot of thinking, and soul searching, and definately made me really want to grow as a person. I wish I had people like that to remind me everyday to take a step back and look at what I have...what I have to give to others, and to remind me how important it is to never take anything for granted!

I think the thing that really hit me the hardest was when he spoke about his wife. I mean, to be devoted to someone so much that even when your entire life..and their entire life changes you love them and do whatever it takes for as long as it takes as she is doing. That's the kind of love I hope I'm blessed enough to find. That's the kind of selfless love and devotion I hope I can give to someone someday. Seems to me that's the kind worth holding out for....

and on that sappy note..i'm gonna go start my article for Nancy...yep i procrastinated...i know you're not surprised!! :-P

Night ya'll

I heart camp

















So...this is me and my camper on a hot day at CATR!! Camp has been really great so far!! I'm going to be sad when its over!!

Yesterday Nicole and I spent a couple hours working on the very large rainbow fish (pictures of that to come :-) It is currently resting in my car and takes up the length of the car. Right underneath it are the MoViNg BoXes...busy busy week!!
So I"m currently in ReSeaRch class...obviouslly NOT paying attention..oops! :-P And as soon as it's over Riley and I are headed to camp because today is the big PlAy!! The Hungry Caterpillar!! Get excited!! haha....so glad that Giraffe and Shell-dawg are coming along as well. Et has been appointed the official photographer for the event...basically I put her in charge of my camera..yay! And she's already been practicin' in class..who knows!!
This weekend looks to be an interesting one as well..If I can make it to Saturday night I'm home free!! Time to go to the good ole country party them folks is havin' up in goose crick!! Might be time for Bertha mae's sister to make another appearance...ya'll be ready now! ;-)

As soon as this weekend is over its time to start workin' on Gold Rush/ western scenery for the next camp!! I heart camp!





On a side note I really can't believe this semester is almost over!! SCARY!! Only one more semester and no more class!! How crazy is that? Its hard for me to blieve I'm almost done..and I'm thrilled about my rotations also!!

If anyone is going to be around I will be in Greenville starting in Jan...Anderson after that..and then Greenwood for the summer! Call me cause I will be LoNeLy!! And weekends will be ROAD TRIPS! :-)




Now is the accepted time, not tomorrow, not some more convenient season.
It is today that our best work can be done and not some future day or future year.
It is today that we fit ourselves for the greater usefulness of tomorrow.
Today is the seed time, now are the hours of work, and tomorrow comes the harvest and the playtime.
~W.E.B. Du Bois

some quotes that seem appropriate right now....

“You must constantly ask yourself these questions: Who am I around? What are they doing to me? What have they got me reading? What have they got me saying? Where do they have me going? What do they have me thinking? And most important, what do they have me becoming? Then ask yourself the big question: Is that okay? Your life does not get better by chance, it gets better by change.”
Jim Rohn



“You are now at a crossroads. This is your opportunity to make the most important decision you will ever make. Forget your past. Who are you now? Who have you decided you really are now? Don't think about who you have been. Who are you now? Who have you decided to become? Make this decision consciously. Make it carefully. Make it powerfully.”
Anthony Robbins



"Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could; some blunders and absurdities have crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; you shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense."
Ralph Waldo Emerson



The tragedy of life is not that it ends so soon, but that we wait so long to begin it."
-W. M. Lewis







"One hundred years from now, it will not matter what my bank account was, how big my house was, or what kind of car I drove. But the world may be a little better, because I was important in the life of a child."
-Forest Witcraft


I think that children have a power to imagine that is almost magical when compared to the adult imagination, and this is something irrevocable that a child loses when he or she becomes bound by logic. We adults continue to have our children’s power of imagination only in our dreams... Of course it’s awfully necessary that children not run their entire lives on the basis of such thinking; they do need to learn how to think logically. But the world will soon teach that to them -and in overabundance. I think we should do everything we can to make it possible for children to hang onto the power to imagine in the almost magical sense for as long as possible.
-Joseph Weizenbaum





When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one that has been opened for us.
Keller, Helen



Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature.
Helen Keller

randomness from the weekend

Don't have time to go into detail about all the random fun craziness of the weekend but i'll try to hit some of the highlights!!




"i'd say it all began with literally about 20 phone calls from erica..along with some rather disturbing ims...from erica..and very nice I love you text messages from ....erica! :-P"

followed by....

"She'll do anything for starbucks and sonic!"


Fun times at the pool:

"Your birth was a mistake?"

"hey shannon where's my drink?"

"you're my servant now"

"What's your favorite....."

"Hey Brenda!!"

" You hold hands with your girlfriend"

"Are you married?"

"Your name is crapola"

"you look like something i found in the toilet!"

"Is that your boyfriend?"

~ How old do i look??
~I'd say fifteen.
~How old does she look??
~umm....42

"do you want to have kids?"
"yes, after i get married....i don't even have a boyfriend"
"if you were my mom i'd prolly see you naked" (~7 yr old boy)


Other Randomness....

Guy on street handed me his phone (big mistake)

guy~"hey tell this girl i'm a nice guy"
me~"hey...dude this guy is out here on the street layin here with his pants down in nothin but his boxers hitting on girls"
girl~ "are you serious??"
me~ "completley!!"

shannon and christina broke that one up...apparently it wasn't a nice thing to do...oops!!


wild wings escapades!
~ shannon get's to wear the "i made out with a homeless man bracelet"
(don't ask...hilarious!!)

study times

ok..so just some of the randomness that occurs during study time....

Bree's latest thought process

Tangerine, which reminds me of clementine which reminds me of eternal sunshine of the spotless mind which reminds me of jim carry which by the way do you know who he's dating now??
ITs not carmen electra but it makes me think of her...

Wow...seriously...all that while studying for neuro....


p.s. Tracy leaves traces.....

long busy week

So my blog has been seriously neglected this week due to 2 exams and several assignments which have basically made this week miserable!!

I'm currently in the cybercafe waiting on the printer so i can print nancy's notes...and my progress note that is due in like two hours...when i get done with it...oops

then there's lab...which i'm sure will prove to be quite interesting...followed by an adventure to find a wonderfully delicious cup of coffee that will stimulate me and make me oh so excited to "begin"...yes i did say begin to study psych for our exam tomorrow..wow...seriously....all you people planning to get up in the morning i'm pretty mad at you!! Cause i will be up doing it tonight since i'll be heading to camp in the a.m....i do love camp..i'll definately have to blog about that later!

and oh....hello...Toni had the camera!! yes for getting my camera back..and I even put the pics up real quick!!

Ok..i have been found out because Giraffe and shell-dawg just came by...they r twinkies today btw...and caught me blogging..gotta go print!! woohoo....

suspenseful i know


Ok so...i until i locate the camera i have stolen one of Katy's photos....

And Brian Lenger's is a PUNK!! He told me my camera was at the bottom of the pool!! PunK!

camera investigation update

ok..so i just talked to Brian (not cara's brian..or class brian...but the other brian)...who had got my number from Christina. He says last time he had my camera he either handed it to me or Seth. I'm pretty sure I've talked to Seth and he doesn't have it...So i'm thinking the only likely explanation is that its somewhere in Bree's apartment. I think my detective skills are pretty lousy :-P...but i'm still workin' on it!

camera blues...

Ok..so i fully intend to blog about Friday...which was quite the eventful day....however at the moment i'm sad bc I don't know what happened to my camera which has lots of fun pictures on it!!
So...when I find the camera...i'll update....ne ideas??

ET scheduled a meeting for our group during mexi monday..someone should have a talk with her

The bionic beavers may be making a special surprise guest appearance on Friday if Riley and Jessica Sue approve....EXCITING ..i know

I think peas, rice, barbacue sauce, vinegar, worsterchire sauce, and texas pete, is a very appropriate and normal supper...i don't see what the big deal is yo


If anyone would like to donate cowboy hats to a good cause...me, shannon and bree...we need some...


I am really tired of EBP...really...really



And I wish i was in the sunshine i can't wait till FRIDAy!!! At 3 oclock i am going to the apt..changing real quick like ....scrounging up pool toys, my cowboy hat...making sure jessica sue has her harmonica and we are headed out yo!! Gone to help riley get ready!



I'm addicted to Law & Order..... really....







where did the fun weekend go?

Ok so this weekend was so much fun...the day or so has made me wish that I was back in the middle of the fun weekend and not here where things seem to be not so fun right now :-/

So I left Friday morning and went for about a 3 hour drive (which was quite pleasant) to Sunset beach to meet the parents. WHen I called they were already at Captain Nance's Seafood in Calabash where I met them and ate some really good shrimp!
We left straight from there to go on a Dolphin Adventure!! Haha...it was a very nice lil boat ride out to the ocean to see a shrimp boat, LOTS of birds, and some dolphins.





















So i tried to catch the dolphins on film..but it was hard....i'm not a very good boat riding photographer! All I got was the boat! hhaha...oh and a video


So after a very eventful dolphin adventure where i made a new friend named ANDY who was VERY young..and my parents laughed...a lot...we headed to the outlets to do some shoppin'! Then once we wore ourselves out doing that...we went to Carrabas! However, there was like a thirty min wait before they would seat us so we took our little buzzer next door to a WING's store and did a lil shoppin'..where of course there was a little mischief...my parents are so funny..i got them to do all kindsa crazy stuff....

























Aren't they cute?? I love Dad holding the Barbie! haha..its great
And then..I found a hottie and got mom to take my picture with him....while Dad stood guard!









After the exciting adventures at WINGS we ate at carrabas and went to Target for more fun times! :-P Mom and I hit the dollar stuff inside the door and I met this woman and little girl who had found the Napoleon Dynamite stash!! So I got prizes for some napoleon dynamite fans I know! ( I got to bring em today .....ask me about them if i forget!!) Then when Dad finally got us out of there Mom and I had to pose with one of the big read balls :-P









We were pretty much worn out by then so we went back and passed out in front of James bond.....
Then on the way home we stopped at the calabash creamery for some ice-cream..I got Birthday cake of course!!
Then I had a small photo shoot with the cows....for the "cows as still life" art project.






















Then the next day Mom and Dad got up and went for a walk on the beach while I slept in :-) and then we went for more shoppin' at the mall...and this time..i know its going to be hard to believe but i bout a DreSs!! I know right...i basically hate dresses but mom said i looked like reese witherspoon..i was going for kelly rippa...I know i prolly look silly but i got it...so when ya'll see it ya'll can laugh at me..don't have a pic of that yet :-P Then I went and got More ICECREAM...birthday cake with cookie dough in it yum!
THen we went to see cars....and my favorite character was Mater...i love that truck....dagum!
"I'm happier n a tornado n a trailer park!"




After the movie we tried to find a Japanese steakhouse because everyone was STARVING!! However the first place we found was REAAALy sketchy so we actually settled on OUtback which is always good.
We tried to go to walmart but the lines were INSANE!! I was like "is there a hurricane coming that we don't know about yet??" I mean seriously I have NEVER seen lines that long at a wal-mart in my life!! Crazy..so we left..after we'd already filled up our buggy! Crazy!









Then we decided to play Putt-PUtt..which was really fun..but my mom has like this magical putt-putt ability..she doesn't even try and she basically kicked our butts...Dad and I were struggling..but we did stop in the midst for a Putt-putt photo shoot.....























Ok, so after getting BEAT at putt-putt...we went back for MORE ice cream! I actually switched flavors this time!! I was proud...I got key lime and it was really yummy. I went to sleep so fast when we got back cause I was exhausted!! Then I got up the next mornin early and drove on back to lay out at the pool for an hour and then dive into schoolwork.

SO the last day wasn't the funnest..too much apt stuff and schoolwork and no fuN!!
Can't wait till Friday!! Pool Partay at Bree's for the first years!! Fiesta!! Woohhoo!
I'm a lil excited!! :-)
A girl's gotta have somethin to look forward too! Seriosuly!

Plus! WE have to go see that movie!! You know what I'm talkin bout!! Love summertime movie trips! And We have to try the ice cream at ye old-fashioned that has blue icing in it..i really think it has the potential to be really good!!

Oh, and I invented a new dessert!! I put a chocolate chip muffin..that i added white chocolate chips to also in the bottom of a coffee mug and heated it then put breyers light rocky road ice cream on top of it..add a lil chocolate syrup and i'm tellin you it is AMAZing....just had it for breakfast! Yum!

Time to go get ready for skool :-( I don't wanna go!!

The long day is gray



The long day begins with alarms and the sun

The mind isn't ready but the day has begun

Brewing of the coffee sets the long day in motion

Whistful and restless you bus past the ocean

Gray halls and gray walls when parking is through

Gray desks and gray chairs calling, welcoming you

Three or four hours in one gray spot you spend

A gray laptop the friend on whom you depend

Distractions are endles, the summer sun calls

She whispers goodbye as she silently falls

The day almost over you whistfully gaze

Hoping magical summer will save you from

the long gray days....

thoughts for the morning...



i have been neglecting my fish.....


sorry fish

I am excited about tonight because I have just been informed that I have been included in plans to go get ICE CREAM and watch
Pirates of the Carribean for the purpose of educating Shleby who is behind because she is a lil slow but we love her still. :-P


I really like the
caprisun that they put in my chicken nugget lunchables! They are really YummY!


I need to pack.


Cross ur fingers cause i think tonight may be the beginning of the "cow as still life art" project....stay tuned for updates...but there is a certain "dissapearing cow" that I will be in search of located in North Charleston tonight!
Gotta love the thrill of the chase! Moo!






“If happiness truly consisted in physical ease and freedom from care, then the happiest individual would not be either a man or a woman; it would be, I think, an American cow.”

hmm...

Ok so..today has been interesting..I got up and went straight to the pool this morning so that I wouldn't be in my apartment when people came in to look at it :-/
Looks like we might be having to move next month...long story..we'll just see what happens with that...craziness....
So then i came back...drank coffee cause i had a super huge awful bad headache that was most likely due to a lack of caffeine..big problem...So i made some wonderful coffee...and ate some lunch..then I went back to the other pool with Shannon and Erica to escape the second round of people coming in to look at our apt.
We had quite a bit of fun listenin' to music and playin' with pool toys. I'm becoming a very big fan of pool toys. Then we went back, got dressed real quick-like and went to LA HA...good times!
We were early to class...where i wrote some STG's and LTG's REALLY FAST..and didn't read the chapters I was supposed to...Oops! :-O
For the last thirty min i've been goofin' off with ET, Amy, and Shelly..makin' up for lost time...Now EVERYONE is addicted to the FISH GAME!!
I will be here till nine tonight...but tomorrow is gonna be a good day cause the plan is to get up early and ExCerSize...a word that has been foreign lately but i'm implementing a new set of get healthy, feel better, basically all around improve my lifestyle plan!! We'll see how this goes.. I'll have to keep you updated...I have to come up with some rules ..and follow them :-P

Some favorite quotes of the day being....

~ Shleby

perfectly wonderful

What is one to say about June, the time of perfect young summer, the fulfillment of the promise of the earlier months, and with as yet no sign to remind one that its fresh young beauty will ever fade.
~Gertrude



Then followed that beautiful season... Summer....
Filled was the air with a dreamy and magical light; and the landscape
Lay as if new created in all the freshness of childhood.

~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow





Summer is the time when one sheds one's tensions with one's clothes, and the right kind of day is jeweled balm for the battered spirit. A few of those days and you can become drunk with the belief that all's right with the world.

~Ada Louise Huxtable











Today...was a perfectly wonderful day.....
It began with a little trip to the pool to relax with some girlfriends...and turned into a trip to the grocery store and a little cookout with the girls!! Food, sunshine, and good conversation, along with some strategically chosen pool toys from none other than the dolla tree....made for a marvelous afternoon! It doesn't get much better. I grilled!! I cooked hamburgers on the grill for the first time ever!! And they weren't bad either! They were good, partially due to Shell-dawgs amazing burger patting skills! A big step in the small life of me! Erica has given me the idea for my first cooking show "Chef Brooke, Let me see ya grill!". Look for me soon on food network! I have to say also, that out of all the pool toys I had the most fun playing BaSeBaLl with pretend bases....except for the few moments where I thought I was going to drown because there are several areas of the pool where I can't touch..and everyone else can! That's always fun and interesting!!

Then...when it seemed that things couldn't possibly get any better...they did!!! Shelly and I went all the way to North Charleston to get BRUSTER's ice cream...and of course i got birthday cake....mmmm....i'm still thrilled just thinking about how great it was!

Now...to end a perfect day the three of us are curled up on the couches in the living room..chillin' and watching the shining. I have to say..I'm quite content.




And you guys who went home for the weekend need to come back!! You are missin' on some serious sunshine time with us!! I miss u guys already!! Where is my giraffe?? What's a weenie dog to do? :-P

time for the glad game

ok..considering the string of recent events...or maybe just that i'm a girl and i'm constantly on an emotional roller coaster cause i'm crazy..it seems like its time for the glad game...so here goes

Things that make me happy....


Sunshine- I love that feeling when the sun hits your skin and you feel warm all over seems like nothing else matters in that moment and you wonder how anything could go wrong when you close your eyes and feel so wonderful

A good cup of coffee or hot tea- makes me so happy when I curl up on the couch in my pajamas with a warm cup of coffee or tea....every sip makes me a little more calm, a little less anxious, and it seems like with each little taste the world gets a little better...my problems get a little smaller and everything will work out ok


The Beach- What's not to love about the beach?? especially right now....when you go out there and see how huge and beautiful it is...seems like it reminds me that someone soooo much bigger and more powerful and so much wiser than me is in control of my life. makes me really thankful cause I have this way of screwing up everything on my own...i'm just glad i'm not completely on my own...that he's there to pick up the pieces when i make huge messes of everything...which i seem to do all the time...
Plus I love the way the sand feels on my fit..makes me feel like a little kid again...and the wind blowing through my hair makes me feel free...if only for a moment from everything that seems to be weighing me down. The salt and the warmth and all of it together just make me thankful to be there..thankful for what I have..makes me wanna hold on to all the good things in my life and think a little less about the bad....

New candles- I love it when you first light a new candle...the smell seems to be everywhere and its so comforting it makes you want to smile...and hold onto someone

thunderstorms- I love the sound of the rain and the wind outside my window..and sometimes even the lightning and thunder..reminds me of how small i am and that its ok to feel like i can't control everything..because i really can't..sometimes i just need to let go and listen to the rain

time with friends
- nothing does more than spending time with people who care about you no matter what...who you can be yourself around and let loose....people you can do anything or nothing with and still be happy...watching movies, cooking out...swimming, or just lounging around whatever it is...spending time with friends makes me a happy girl!


scary movies- I don't know why but its so much fun to try and watch them...i don't last long...i always end up covering my eyes or puttting my head in a pillow..but for some reason its fun to see how long I can last....makes my heart jump :-P

A good book- I love to get lost in a good book...its like no matter where I am I can just pick up a good book and travel to somewhere else, be somewhere else, see and imagine things i've never dreamed of, a book can go anywhere I do and even if its only for a moment i can escape to somewhere else...someplace exciting, someplace different....

music- I love music....no matter how you feel or why there is always a song or a sound that can speak to you...something that meets you right where you are no matter what...it can pick me up when i'm down....i love to close my door and sing my heart out...i like to dance to music while i'm gettin' ready in the mornin'...there's something about music that connects to the deepest parts of you...the parts you can't talk about out loud...the things your scared of....things you can't say but you can feel...music goes there


guess a lot of things make me happy..... :-)

Magical Summer



















ok you guys..i'm updating..chill out yo!
:-)





So lately I've been thinkin'...I know..scary..but I have...about how there really is something magic about summertime. I'm serious. It's like as soon as i spend a little time in the sunshine everything seems so much better. It makes me think of possibility, opportunity, excitement, of meeting new people, visiting new places, and I think most of all, about how quickly life can change. I mean, in one instant your whole life can take a different path you had never imagined. That is exciting!
Possibly these thoughts come from the five straight days I recently spent in the sun. But they were wonderful days filled with fun, and frienship, with the excitement that comes with getting to know new people and the comfort and happiness that comes with spending time with the friends wo know me so well. I just think....what more could I ask for?? How could I be any luckier?? Or any happier? So, its only been like two weeks and now i'm wondering...what else does this wonderfully magical summer have in store for me? I can't even imagine...and I can't wait. I just know that whatever it is...I'm going to be ready for it...ready to dive in headfirst and enjoy the magic!
