Overboard- Justin Bieber

ooooo life...what direction do you want me to go now.... I have been pulled in so many directions which has helped me be the person I am today but I hate the process of being hurt and hurting others along the way.  I have made so many awesome friends and others not so much, but in the end I hope this will all be worth it.

Part of me- Katy Perry


I am writing this post because I really do not want to be writing my final paper.  I am so freaking close to being done and this paper is killing me.  It doesn’t help that it is about this woman who experienced so much hardship and loss I feel like I am not giving her enough praise.  Oh well, I have been at the library since 10am and it is currently 2pm. I am on my last section that I have to write and then I have to add all my sources and such.  I feel like I am going to be going over the page limit because this woman’s biography alone takes up three pages.  I cannot wait for my summer to began I am six days away. Though I do have to work all summer long so I can pay to live in this awesome city. 
            I also am freaking out because this will be the first summer I won’t be home. I am very nervous and sad.  I won’t be near the beach and I won’t be with my family and means I’m growing up. I don’t want to be an adult yet I just want to be a kid again.  I did make sure I took enough vacation time (2 weeks) to be home with my family. I will also probably be coming home randomly throughout the summer too. 
            I am looking forward to be living in an apartment. This will be the first time I am going to be in one, and with someone else. I hope it will all work out. Well I better get back to this torturous paper.

We Found Love- Rihanna

Okay so my week has been kinda awesome. I've been talking to Kevin a lot, and he took me out last night. We went out for dinner and saw the Nicholas sparks movie. It was a lot of fun! I always get nervous that on a date you will like run out of things to talk about, but that has never happened with Kevin. He's super super nice! He even got me flowers :) which are very pretty! He also updated his facebook status to "Best date ever!!! Shes amazing!!! Cloud 9!" He opened the car door for me too. I am sooo not used to all of this stuff. Its kinda weird.
       Anyway he is coming to Boston on Friday to meet Kelli and Mel. :) Then I am staying until Sunday with Kelli and we are going to go out to landsdowne. Thats all for now. I have got to get some homework done.
       Oh yeah I am also going to play bingo on Monday at Foxwoods. Lets hope I bring in the money!! :D

Days Go By -Keith Urban

Maybe I should just be alone...that way I won't hurt anyone but myself...i can just concentrate on myself and then no one would hate me.... why does life have to be so difficult! well all that matters is that in the end the ones who truly care about me will be there and the rest won't matter.  Sometimes I wish I would keep my mouth shut and not people all the bad things about someone and just the good and then keep those things to myself except for select people who actually care about me and just want me to be happy....I have definitely learned my lesson.  I am also transitioning from college life and friends to the real world where I will meet new friends as well :) every stage of life brings new friends and I am excited for that but I am also excited to bring my best friends along with me :)
That's all for now...finals are consuming my life....

I will blog soon :)

It Ends Tonight- All American Rejects

So I have had an emotional roller coster past few days. My weekend was for the most part awesome. Friday Kelli, Mel and I went out to a bar, then Kelli and I went to Landsdowne and danced. I saved Kelli from some creepy guy who tried to kiss us both, made friends with a few yankees fans and had some fun. Saturday I had my class, I got an 80 on my exam, which isn't fantastic but I am just thankful I passed. Then I met Kelli at the T station and we went to harvard square to get our tattoos!! Mel came a little later and was going to get it with us but then had to leave because we had to wait so long. But no worries she has an appointment friday that we are all going to so we can get matching ones :)
       The tattoo turned out great! Jason also came after work to wait with us. I was kinda surprised he stayed the whole time, but glad he did, because even though he wouldn't admit it he does consider me a friend. It has been getting so frustrating with him lately though! Kelli got it sooo right! He spends hours complaining to me about his life, about how he gave up on love, about how his best friend doesnt have time for him. All I want to do is yell at him "If they are too busy for you, then obviously they are not your best friend! and what the fuck do you think I am?!?! you have called me up and spoke to me about everything and I have stopped everything to listen to you!!" but he is too wrapped up in feeling sorry for himself. The next time he says something like that I am going to give him a piece of my mind! I would at least like him to acknowledge the fact that I am a good friend!!
       So saturday after the tattoo I went straight to the Mohegan Sun and saw Augustana for free at the wolf den with my friend Alison. I also invited a guy, Kevin, who had been asking me out for a while. I told Alison that Kevin came into starbucks a lot, thats what I plan on telling everyone, except for Kelli and Mel. I actually met him online. But I am too embarrassed to admit it. He is actually super nice!! he bought both me and Alison a drink. Then Alison left and we had dinner. Its really nice to know that there are guys out there who are actually nice and caring and they are not all like Jason. I hope to see him again!
       So far that was two good things and one bad, and today at work and it will be two good and two bad. So my little friend had a horrible day at school today! and nothing could help him because he is so stubborn and wont let anyone help him, and he for some reason wants to be miserable. So basically today I spent about two to three hours walking around outside with him as he: ran around the building, pulled a tree out of the ground, attempted to throw the tree at the building, threw rocks at the school, yelled, ran away to the town hall, smacked his head against a window for about five minutes and played in the mud. Then once inside the school he went into the principal's office, went through his desk, tried to call everyone whos number he knew, hid in a closet, stole a box of staples and stuck them in boxes and balls, and other random things. None of this is totally unheard of in our school but what was the problem is that usually he will cool down and sleep or find something to at least help him get through the end of the day. But today nothing would help him. He chose to be miserable and dismissed everything else. He wouldnt even wander the halls bouncing a ball against the walls, which is usually what he resorts to at the end of the day.
       So anyway hopefully tomorrow will be better! I don't think I can handle another day like this. It was so sad.

I'd Come for You- Nickelback


So today was a relaxing kind of day. I did not have to go to work until 7am so that was a nice change J. I worked till 12 even though I was supposed to get out at 12:30 but it was super slow so work wasn’t even bad. Then after work I got lunch and chilled for some time before Kelli and I went for a run. We were both not really feeling the run but forced ourselves to keep going because we need to get better. After the run I brought my “HW” over to Kelli’s room, but I really can’t do my hw because all that I have left is a paper and I can’t start the paper until I interview a person over 70 so I am stuck. My mom is going to ask a few of her clients today so hopefully I can interview them and bang this paper out because it is due next Friday… Oh well. So my “HW” consisted on me going on Tumblr, and looking up stuff. A girl I work, with AJ,  has become a terrible influence on me reinforcing all my terrible habits like my love for dance moms and toddlers and tiaras. She also started following me on tumblr and told me about this soccer player who I just spent the last 25/30 mins looking up on tumblr.  I don’t even play soccer!! I never have and yet here I am reblogging photos of this national soccer player :P not good. So now I am trying to be a little productive and writing a blog entry. I am going to a step class at 5 but gotta kill more time since it’s only 3:42 :P I am sure I can find it. That’s all for now!!

Knee Deep - Zac Brown Band

So I have no idea what it is, whether the weather or my mood, but I have been obsessed with country music lately.  The only stations on Pandora I have been listening to are Zac Brown Band, Brad Paisley, and Jason Aldean and if I am not listening to country then its Th Fray or Usher Radio.  I am finally truly happy... I feel like a cheese ball every time I am around my girlfriend and I have amazing friends :) The only thing is I would like to eventually be friends with Mike, because if you erase all of the bad things he did, and lets face it no ones perfect, hes a nice guy.  I never thought he didn't care about me, he was just suffocating at times and cared about me wayyyy to much.  And thats not necessarily a bad thing, but it is when you are 45 minutes away from each other for 4 years, hes gets crazy hahaha but we will see, I am giving it space now :)

So on Saturday Amanda, Melissa, and I went to get our tattoos!! Mel wasn't able to go because we waited 3 hours and then she had a prior commitment that she couldn't miss, but shes getting hers friday :) It was such an anxiety full process, between getting the guts to just go do it, then waiting around for 3 hours, then sitting in the room as he set everything up :) The actual process didn't really hurt, it felt like a scratching, but not like shots at the doctors.  Amanda and mel will both have the word imagine and I was originally going to get Believe in Yourself but I changed it to simple and sweet; Believe :) I love it!! Its in an awesome spot that I can easily hide :) The pictures of me and amandas will follow after this.

I am getting really mad at Jason.... The guy amanda has been mentioning.  He always calls her with his problems and never takes time to ask her about her life.  he is going to lose her as a friend if this continues, a frendship goes both ways and hes always complaining about lonely he is, he has amanda!! If he would just acknowledge the fact that she is at least a good friend and thanks for listening to me or how are things with you...I am getting mad at him, never mind amanda.... And then he shows up when Amanda gets her tattoo, maybe he wanted to be there for her but the whole time he was complaining about his job and etc etc etc...it wasn't anything fun.... I don't know.... guys are very frustrating...

Peace,

Kelli

Jump Then Fall- Taylor Swift


I am supposed to be writing my last paper of the semester right now but it is extremely hard for me to do this because I have not yet interviewed the person. It is due in two weeks and I have not given it a single thought which makes me nervous because I want to do well on it. I am at work and was hoping to at least do the outline here, but I do not have any of the sources I need and have been on Tumblr and Facebook all morning. Oh well. I am sure it will get done. I have two more hours and then I am either going to go with Kelli and Amanda to get a tattoo or chill. I am almost done with the semester and it’s just so hard to do this paper. Ugh. Hopefully I will get everything in on time.  This past week I just presented a project that was worth 90% of my grade and interviewed for my field placement for the following year. They both went well, I will be interning at the place I interviewed at so I am excited! These things also make it hard to concentrate on school :P oh well. Tomorrow I will get some work done. That’s all for now :)

Just Dance -Lady Gaga

Hey! So I've had lots of late night phone calls from my buddy jason, one time he called me just to let me know he was going to kill someone because they were to lazy to pick up a food basket at a store....yeah... hes a special one.

I also had an interesting day at one of my jobs. A really hot dude walked in and my shift supervisor got this huge grin on her face and she was harassing me all night about getting his name and number. She was like "you work at starbucks where customer service is the first priority so I think you should get his name for the cup. And then get his phone number just in case there are any problems with his drink." lol I wish I had talked to him! but I am too shy. Another guy asked me what my nationality was and when I named them he was like "I knew you were italian because of your nose"...no offense but my nose is pretty no discript. Nothing special. but OKAY lol. he also came back up and said i looked like i was a very environmentally conscious person because i was wearing bracelets... uhh okay...weird.

Anyway...I cant wait to go out dancing tonight with my BFF kelli! hehe Then tomorrow after my class we are going to get tattoos and then I am going to a free concert at the Mohegan Sun, Augestana! woot woot!

love ya!
Amanda

Dirt Road Anthem- Jason Aldean

It's so weird how you go almost 2 days without seeing the person you care about most and it feels like weeks! I have never been in a relationship where I care about and miss someone so much.
And an update on the leg/mole....I went for my second opinion and they want a second pathologist to look at the slides to get a definite diagnosis and then they will go from there, but they are pretty sure its nothing.  I hope they are right...otherwise I will need a lymph node biopsy whcih can leave me with a swollen leg for the rest of my life....ughhhhh but the doctor I saw is usually against that surgery so thats good :)
So all that I have left between me and graduation is 2 papers, 2 exams, 1 project, 1 simlab, and 3 clinicals!!! O MY GOD!!! I am super pumped but I also have horrible senioritis and procrastinate like a crazy person.
And an update from my last blog about my mother.... We talked it out and we are fine now :) being an only child makes you very close to your mom and she is basically my best friend and fights happen but we always clear it up :)
Amanda and I are going tonight for a much needed fun drunk night :) we are trying to get Mel to join for a little while but I think she might be caught up with cinnamon buns and her girlfriend...blahhh
My girlfriend will be MIA due to 4/20 and she celebrates that and I don't...I mean I would try it once just to say that I did it but I would never become a pot head.

And tomorrow Amanda and are getting out tattoos!!! I am so pumped!!!
We will update about that later :)
Sorry this blog is kinda boring and all over the place but enjoy! :)

Knock you down -Keri Hilson


So I’ve realized in life that I have always wanted others to be happy and I never thought about myself because I was always wondering what other people thought of me or how they might react.  And because of this I never let myself be myself.  And then I decided to change this, which was this semester, and I want to find myself.  But I am also realizing that I am transitioning from being in college to the real world and that being in college also gives you friends in different years and when they graduate you don’t see them as much and most of my friends are older than me, like Amanda and Melissa and I see Mel but she has a girlfriend so obviously the girlfriend comes first but my best friend Amanda lives 2 hours away and I can only see her for a few hours on the weekend and I havnt seen Molly since October and my other friends don’t talk to me as much because I no longer do crew.  And being on the Crew team bonds you and you also have a different schedule from the rest of the world.  And on top of all this I am trying to figure out if I my life as liking guys and girls and having family that is completely against it…it’s a hard road to take but it will be worth it to me… and my girlfriend is totally worth it…But I am also just jealous of my girlfriend, and I hate jealousy.  But she has so many friends and she is younger than me so she will obviously have more friends in college right now but I want to constantly have friends to hang out with… and I always want to hang out with her and her friends like to just be with her…or she just likes to be with them…I can’t tell…. O well…
And I also hate when people complain about me on facebook…maybe I read into it too much but….its happened a few times…I mean grow up and tell me to my face instead of acting like a 12 year old and being sneaky and weird about it.  But whatever no skin off my back….
I also have so many feelings for my girlfriend and I can’t tell if it’s crazy butterflies, that I really like her, or love her…I mean we haven’t even been together for a month and my feelings are so strong…it’s crazy!!

Call Me Maybe- Carly Rae Jepson

 Okay so this entry is going to be a lot of complaining...sorry about that. So anyway since I last wrote I have gotten another email had several hour to two hour long phone calls with Jason. He is even more upset then ever because samantha wants nothing to do with him. So I mean I am ecstatic because he is not going to run off to virgina just to be with a girl. He on the other hand is devistated. They like text all the time. Even after she told him that she wasnt interested in him she was still texting him as if nothing ever happened. So he told her basically to stop talking to him because it hurt too much.
       Anyway the phone calls I have been getting are him being super upset because he can't be with her. He was constantly complaining about being lonely, and I am sorry but come on! your talking to me right now. I am your friend, obviously you are not alone!! and ugh I am single to and it fucking sucks. especially when the person you like is the one whining about being single. The whole thing is entirely messed up. I know for my sake i should not have answered his call but I feel like thats what friends do. And since I can't be with him, I can at least be there for him. I'd rather be a close friend over nothing.
       Thats the depressing end to my weekend. Luckily Friday was more fun, even though it didnt start out as such. So I went up very early friday so Kelli and I could spend the whole day together. I had to do some serious studying because I had an exam on Saturday, but we had some fun too. You saw from her entry we went and got fro yo which was delicious, but ended up bringing up a lot of bad feelings... She wrote her entry after that, we had already taken one shot and I was still studying lol. Anyway in my attempt to cheer her up after everything I managed to convince her to go out to a bar and I would buy her a drink. (by that point we had one shot, a glass of wine, a nib of raspberry smirnoff mixed with lemonade, and kelli had a few chugs of coconut rum...).
       So we went to a bar that happens to be right next to fenway park, and being opening day the place was pretty busy. But busy just means more fun :) So within about five min of walking in the door we were just looking for a place to sit down and these two guys, mustve been in their thirties, came up to us, well actually one of the came up the other was holding back. They started talking to us and kelli and i were trying to be polite and they were like "well once you find a seat we will buy you a drink..." so they left us alone after that. Then we found a seat!! (two actually) So then kelli started talking to these two guys next to her, I couldn't hear a word they were saying because it was so loud and i was on the other side. but I guess one of them worked at the house of blues and was going to get us into a concert for free...except i said i didn't like kid rock...whoops. Then we made friends with the bartender, nick. He gave us each two free drinks!! And then this group of guys came up and started firing questions at us. One of them was trying to take a picture of this guy who was cheating on his girl friend and the first thing he did was pinch my cheek...so he was a little weird. but they bought us each another free drink and at the end of the night (well the end of my night) the guy who pinched my cheek spent about 20 min telling me how awesome I was... it was a little weird. but yeah...that happened and i ended up kissing both kelli and a different guy, who was probably the cutest out of the whole group. Anyway it was a fun night!

Lazy Day for Charlie :)

Super Bass- Nicki Minaj


This was an interesting week….
First of all graduation is getting so close and I can’t believe it!! Precepting this week was awesome…I know now why I want to be a nurse and it’s the compassion about it as well as being there for the little kids.  The difference you make in these little beings lives is amazing.  And it’s not just with children, its with adults as well J I eventually want to work in postpartum or labor and delivery but every clinical experience has helped me develop my sense of why I want to be a nurse and I am sure with more experience I will have even more reasons why I want to be a nurse. 
Also, this week I have realized that either opportunities come in groups and you can only choose one or that being in a relationship makes you more desirable.  I only say this because once I got into a relationship with my girlfriend, multiple people all of a sudden found me interesting.  Throughout college I have always wanted a girlfriend and liked multiple girls and after getting to know them I would tell them I liked them and then I was rejected.  So its like once I finally like someone that likes me back, everyone comes after me.  Like, did they not know I liked girls or they didn’t believe me? Or I’m not that attractive….not sure….
And my friend that I met a while ago ended up liking me a lot more than I expected and I got into a situation where I felt like I was leading her on just because I was talking to her and I know how that feels because it happened to me multiple times.  I felt bad because I talk to all of my friends and when you talk to another girl like a friend and they like you can easily get caught up in a situation which sucks…but you have ti keep chugging along and living life and waiting for the right person to come along because when they do it will catch you off guard and make it even more special.  And I want to be friends with her but sometimes friend zone can still be pushing it once you like someone.  I mean I liked someone and we were friends before and trying to be friends after was hard because of mixed feelings and we still aren’t completely good friends since that happened.  I am hanging out with her and Amanda today so I guess we will see what happens.  And I hung out with her today and she got pissed that I didn’t look at her and I didn’t look at her because I know how much she likes me and I don’t want to lead her on, I’ll be friends but that’s it. 
Other than that I feel so crazy when I am with my girlfriend.  I feel like I am in another dimension and all I want to do is cuddle and get closer.  I feel like a high schooler with her first boyfriend/girlfriend where you are so silly and butterflies like crazy.  She has the best smile and laugh and her eyes are amazing!! I have had so many unexplainable feelings lately and the last time I felt this way I was 18! She makes me feel special like nothing else matters J I still haven’t seen much of her friends, I mean I hung out with her room mates and we went out to dinner but her best friends that she hangs out with…maybe they just wanted to make sure I was actually going to stick around…
And last night we were talking about hickies and so she decided to have me try and give her a hickie and after 10 seconds I looked at her neck and nothing was there and she told me to keep going so after about 30 seconds I looked and it was huge!!! I feel super bad about it but it is kinda funny….now people know she’s taken and by me J
So this entry was started last night and has taken me forever to write and Amanda and I are already one shot in and its 4:20pm lol Its going to be a long night…..
And I’ll end with my motto: Just dance, Live life, and Believe in yourself

Basket Case- Green Day


So I have not updated too much because I am in serious stress mode. I have a group project/presentation due Wednesday that is 90% of my grade. Yeah 90%!!!!! It’s insane!!! And it’s a GROUP project!! So not only is my entire year long class on the line here but it is also dependent on my two group members. There is Jane and Jill, and they are both full time students. I am part time because I nearly killed myself last semester and ended up marginally passing a class which in grad school means a B- :P so anyway I am only taking this class and another while they are both taking 4 and doing internships.  So I understand their stress but his girl Jane is INSANE!!! We had to turn in an outline and we split up the topic into sections and mine was background/history. I had to cover the historical events and the policies past and current. In the presentation that went yesterday two different people covered this so needless to say it’s a lot! When I emailed Jane (who is assembling the outline) I accidently emailed her a super old version of the outline that was mostly Jill’s work. She responded with asking what happened and why is it so different and I was confused because I had changed it around from the one she saw so it would flow better in the presentation.  I then actually looked at what I sent her and found out it was the wrong one so I sent a freaking out apology email then emailed her the one I wanted to.  She then responded with her thoughts that it was still not substantial enough and I should use the Google doc one which is the one she saw. I had to go to work in like an hour so I emailed her with the badly formatted not read over Google doc version and said I would read it over and fix the formatting which wouldn’t be until after 9pm because that is when I’m getting out of work. I was so stressed going to work they let me go 45 mins early because I was flipping out. I couldn’t calm down and ended up fixing it and emailing to her… I don’t even know which version she used :P. I’m scared to look.

So that was yesterday today I am taking a mental health day I had to work last night until 11:30 and get up at 4:30 to go to work do I got like no sleep. Luckily I only worked till 9:30 so I was able to go back to my room I went to the gym and spun for 30 mins to get any extra anxiety out and then I showered and took a nice nap. During the nap I heard weird noises outside my window and I looked out and their was hail!!! Like HAIL!! It was soooo weird!!!! I thought I was dreaming lol. Anyway I woke up went to get lunch and then laid in bed and watched dance moms.  Kelli had asked me to meet her at starbucks and then to go for a run, so I assumed the hail was a dream so I dressed in shorts and a t-shirt to meet her for the run. Well I walked out the door and it was pouring! And COLD! I ran all the way to sbux and was freezing and wet! So I ran back got dressed in nice dry warm clothes and chilled for a while. I have to go to work but it’s nice to lounge around every now and then. That’s all for now!

Complicated- Avril Lavigne

So my friend Jason had texted me last week telling me that he was having a bad week but he didn't want to talk about it. So obviously I responded with a "well I hope it gets better and Im always here to listen if you need to talk." well, last night at midnight he decided he wanted to talk. He basically poured everything out in an email he wrote to me. A top secret (mind you) email that I am not allowed to tell anyone because he has never told anyone this stuff and will deny it if someone actually asks.
       So the first part of the email I can totally see how devastated he was, because he just found out that he will not be able to work full time for the coast guard when he graduates. (he has been working for them and is currently on reserve while attending school) Jason loves working for the CG and all he would talk about is how he couldn't wait to graduate so he could work there full time and not have to worry about school. So he took this news very very hard. I feel like I can totally relate because i didnt get into the grad school i had been planning and hoping for and had to settle for something that I was not expecting or looking for.
       Before I go on to the next part a little history about me and Jason, we are friends, good friends. But we became friends because he was actually dating one of my other friends. I met him after they broke up. It was a bad break up. A very bad break up. My friend (not jason) did not and still does not want anything to do with jason, ever. sooo we became friends under weird circumstances... another thing about Jason, I used to like him a lot. we've had several nights where both of us got drunk and things went too far, but we still remain friends. I know he does not like me the way I like him. He just sees me as a friend, and I am happy we are friends. I actually thought i stopped liking him, but the next part of his email kinda showed me otherwise....
       so Jason's other part of his email, paraphrased with details left out (that is still top secret) basically said that after he and my other friend broke up he briefly dated this other girl, samantha. He was in a bad place so the relationship never went anywhere. But now he wants to start dating again. He keeps thinking about samantha, they have been keeping in touch, and he still has feelings for her. The dilemma is that she is going to vet school in the fall, in VA. So my buddy Jason is seriously considering moving to VA just so he can be with her....
       Anyway thats as much as i am going to say. but basically I did my best to give him the best advice i could. I dont want him to mess up his future because he is upset about not being able to land his dream job right away. I am seriously worried he is going to go. :(

You're Gonna Go Far Kid - The Offspring

I have finally come to terms that I will not be living with my best friend and sister for the next year. It really kinda sucks but I figure that everything happens for a reason and that this is for the best. I am still planning on living with them in the summer and the following year I plan on doing my field work placements in Boston so I can live there again. I am looking forward to this week though because I dont have to work one of my jobs, so I can finally get some stuff done, unfortunately i have a huge exam on Saturday. But I plan on studying my ass off this week so I can enjoy friday with my bestie!!
My easter was fun, until i had to go to work. Last easter my sister and I made jello shots, but all of our family functions have to be alcohol free so we took my mom, my aunt and my sister outside and did them outside. So of course the first thing my aunt asks when she gets here is "where are the jello shots?" we didnt make any this year because my dad did not approve last year....but i did however find a bottle of raspberry smirnoff and we had just as much fun sneaking that into our cups of punch lol. The food was awesome and I got lots of chocolate! then... I had to go to work and lemme tell you working at starbucks on sunday's isnt too bad because after about 6pm it goes dead. well on easter sunday that is apparently not the case. nope it stayed busy all night long. and it sucked, i made a 24135235945 frappicinos and no one even appreciated the fact that we were working on our easter. okay that was my rant :)

Easter Weekend
So I saw my best friend for the first time since summer and I had so much fun!  We talked about everything and I came out to her and she was awesome about it. J And then  we looked at old baby pictures of her which was hilarious J
Then I saw him…. I don’t like to mention his name anymore because he is becoming a complete bastard and its horrible!! I don’t know how I ever loved him….He is so immature and controlling its not even funny.  
So I promised him I would hang out this weekend like 2 weeks ago and we were all hanging out, his friends and his brother, and we played whiffle ball which was fun and then we went inside to watch the end of the sox game and he wouldn’t stop trying to kiss me!! I have a girlfriend but even if I didn’t, he was still in my personal bubble, and this went on for a good 30 minutes until I started to cry..he even stuck his foot under my butt trying to get a rise out of me and it hit my stitched which pissed me off!! I ended up leaving but come on, GROW UPP!! And on top of that I have to go to Red Sox game with Saturday that my mom bought tickets for, for his bday…ugh…Thankfully Amanda is walking over with us and talking to him…I wish Amanda could come…
And on top of all that my mom was awful about the whole girl situation until this afternoon when I coming back to school…she said she would love me either way but she wants me to figure myself out but she is always mentioning wanting a wedding and grandkids and to have a son-in-law….ugh I mean who knows who I will marry but to have limits set by own parents… My dad doesn’t say anything but my mom can be so annoying…I wish I wasn’t an only child….
But I became friends with this girl through other friends and she has been awesome with being there to talk to…she super nice and I can talk to her about anything J  Amanda and I are gonna hang out with her Friday for the first time so that will be fun J
And I miss my girlfriend!! I haven’t seen her since Thursday and I can’t imagine how the summer will be if I miss her so much just after one weekend…I will just have to see her every weekend or almost every weekend…I mean I have to do something every weekend to avoid Josh….ugh
And lastly, Amanda is going to grad school in CT, soooo she won’t be living with me and Mel for the year next year L But she will move in, in June 2013 and we have two room mates to sublet so it will be fine J Unless something horrible happens like one girl drops out….ugh

ONE MONTH LEFT UNTIL GRADUATION!!!well pretty much anyways…

Sugar we're Going Down -Fall Out Boy

So today at work i witnessed something I never thought I would see...my little buddy climbed out of a window! yup. he opened the window and just climbed out it. I thought it was kind funny but freaked out when it happened because I thought he was going to get hurt. Anyway that was a first, and hopefully a last.
On the grad school front. Was contacted by Worcester with a one sentence reply to my page long email. So obviously they only answered one of my 8 questions I asked.
I took a day off from work tomorrow so I could spend the whole day with my sister :) Who I haven't spent like anytime with since August. I am really excited...but then I gotta head up to boston again friday night for my class on saturday and the celebrate easter a little before I have to go to work sunday. I cannot wait for spring break next week!!! woot woot!

My first post is going to be about my crazy day at work. I work at starbucks and sometimes confuse me. There are a couple orders that I just don’t understand. There is one lady who orders a skinny vanilla latte meaning it’s sugar free syrup and skim milk, she then asks for 4 sugar in the raw’s which is weird cause she’s ordering sugar free syrup so why add the sugar…it is really sweet already. But that’s not all she also adds whipped cream… now the whipped cream is made with heavy whipping cream and guess what else vanilla syrup … not the sugar free kind!! What is the point of getting skim milk and sugar free syrup if you are adding whipping cream and sugar!!! Why not get a regular vanilla latte and it will be so much healthier!!! Seriously!!! Don’t even pretend to be healthy.  That is the only order I can think of off the top of my head :P but here is something else that happened to me today. I was cleaning and a lady came up to me saying the sink is on in the bathroom and it’s flooding. I asked her if she turned it off and she’s like no… seriously!?!?! She can’t go and turn off the stupid facet… she said she didn’t want to get her shoes wet… well I didn’t wanna get mine wet either… ugh! And I didn’t even know it was going… I would have totally done turned it off if I had found it…instead of make the poor girl working get drenched… and on top of that I spent the next half hour mopping up the flooded bathroom. Who leaves the freaking faucet running!?!?!?! Like really?!?!?! And why did it flood???? It wasn’t clogged :P I feel bad for the poor fishies and environment we just killed. People need to be careful and considerate.  This person obviously has never worked in a service job L.

So that was my first post, it’s a bit of a rant :P. Here is a little information about me: I am currently in grad school to become a social worker. I am going part time after an awful first semester. I will finish in three years with an MSW. I have a girlfriend and we have been together for a little over two years. I have a twin sister Amanda who is going to be in school next year for OT and is also posting on this blog.  That’s all for now.

Amanda's first post

Hello! So my first post is going to be a rant. I graduated college in May 2011 and have spent this past year working and applying to grad school for occupational therapy. Up until january I lived in Boston, but just moved back home for this last semester. I had planned on going to grad school in Boston at either BU or tufts...unfortunately those two school are the number 1 and 5 schools in the country for OT and i didnt get accepted to either :( so my last hope for living in boston was worcester state...which i thought i had a pretty good chance of getting in. well i got a letter yesterday saying they never even reviewed my application!!!! WTF!!! So anyway ive been trying to call them twice and emailing...all i got was voice mail and no email response.. ugh.
       Anyway this friday im going to be going back up to boston...but ill be staying all alone in Mel's room and going to class on saturday. At least i have the entire day friday to spend with melissa. Ill miss seeing my best friend kelli though!
Delicious cupcakes that Mel and I made yesterday :)

So I was finally able to exercise today after two weeks of not being able to! I feel so much better!! Also this awesome Pandora station is keeping my mood high (The Script station) And its starting to warm up again outside which makes me even happier J
And at lunch today Mel and I were listening in on people’s conversations, which I do a lot, and the question they were asking each other was; if you had to choose one for the rest of your life, would you choose love with no sex or sex without love.  I think I would choose love because you can always kiss and cuddle and sex without love is meaningless and eventually you will feel crummy.  But in general life, I believe one cannot exist without the other.  So I asked my girlfriend and Mel asked her girlfriend and mine gave a very philosophical answer and the verdict was love without sex but she also agreed that love cannot exist without sex.  And Mel’s girlfriend said that sex cannot happen unless both people are completely naked so as long as you have socks on then you are good :P hahaha I have yet to ask Amanda….
I also have an appointment for a second opinion of my leg and I’m starting to realize that I am going to be ok J

I wrote this entry yesterday April 3rd 2012. 
Today is drama and bad news filled.  Two weeks ago I got a mole removed on my leg that was a potential  problem and after it was removed they told me I didn’t have to worry unless they called.  So I didn’t get a call at all and then today when I got my stitches they were like “uhh your results are concerning and I think we need to take more of a margin around the area to tests the cells again and for that you need to see a surgical oncologist.” WHAT THE FUCK?! Surgical oncologist….. the only words that go through my head are oncologist….oncologist….cancer….and she keeps talking and I keep thinking I thought I would be ok….then a random e-mail comes and says have her wait and have her come back in 4 months.  I want to say that’s a good thing but wait 4 months….what if it’s something more…. I need to get a second opinion…. Well if Mike wasn’t good for anything besides helping me figure out what I want in life…he was the one who made me get this taken care of because I wasn’t going to go…well I’m glad I did because the cells were malignant but hopefully its gone now….
And then drama happened over the weekend….
Friday night my best friend came to Boston like she always does and we were going to hang out but then she randomly decided to go to Jason’s for dinner and Mel went with her girlfriend  and my girlfriend was with her friends and for a little while I felt like a loser with no friends and then Mel came back… and then Amanda and then I was ok but I haven’t cried like that for a while….
Then Saturday came around and I made plans with Mel and my girlfriend to make rainbow cupcakes which came out awesome and Mel’s girlfriend was supposed to go dye Easter eggs with the crew team but decided not to.  And instead of coming to make cupcakes with us she complained…. She didn’t like the crowd we were hanging out with and feels intimidated by my girlfriend..who is the sweetest person I Know!  And now everything with Mel’s girlfriend is super awkward….ughhhhh
But other than that my life is going great…I graduate in almost a month and I am one college exam away from my nursing degree and then I take the NCLEX :)
And I have the most amazing girlfriend… I have been friends with her since last year…from nutrition class… I started talking to her near the end of the class when we were studying for finals and I thought I liked her but then we went on summer break and we kind of lost touch and just talked every once in a while.  Then last semester we talked about random drama with other girls and friends and then this semester I started looking at her differently and having sudden urges to kiss her and be with her.  So we’ve been seeing each other/dating for the past month and last week she asked to be my girlfriend J I think about her all day and almost every song I listen to I think of her.  She super nice and funny and I feel so comfortable around her.  I just hope she isn’t embarrassed by me because she won’t bring me around her friends…or her friends have no interest… I introduced her to my friends and they like her a lot :)
