11:26 am	Your Birthdate: July 1 You are a natural born leader, even if those leadership talents haven't been developed yet. You have the power and self confidence to succeed in life, and your power grows daily. Besides power, you also have a great deal of creativity that enables you to innovate instead of fail. You are a visionary, seeing the big picture instead of all of the trivial little details. Your strength: Your supreme genius Your weakness: Your inappropriate sensitivity Your power color: Gold Your power symbol: Star Your power month: January What Does Your Birth Date Mean? tomorrow will start the celebration of the best 6 months of my life. things are wonderful. i am almost done with school. the leaves around my house fall like snowflakes. gatlinburg is so romantic this time of year. pictures to come soon...

9:54 am	i had such an awesome day yesterday! i did a few hours of r esearch and we got a lot done in the lab. then i went to the gym and took a nap before work. i even got to talk to matty for a little bit!!! i cant wait to see him!!! work was slow [as usual] and i got cut after 1 1/2 hours. bulllshiit. but i was happy to leave--i had better things to do... i came home and drew was finishing up moving out [sniff sniff]. ill miss you kiddo. sorry if i ever annoyed you but i really loved living with you. you know if you ever need anything--ill be here. thhhhennnnn the weirdest shit ever happened to me! i was leaving athens when this jeep was in front of me with the back window open and these two little girls waving at me. ok so yeah--at first i think its precious but then they wont stop staring at me! it went on a little too long and creeped me out a little too much. but thankfully it only lasted a few miles. then these guys cut me off and started blowing kisses to apologize? next thing i know theyre like pulling up beside me with their windows done yelling at me. so the remainder of the drive consists of them asking for my name, number, telling me they love me, inviting me to hang out, then giving me a flyer and 2 free wristbands to this weekends' carshow in atl. they passed it to me while driving. i made it to lawrenceville in a record 30 minutes though because i was trying to get away from them. anyways theres more to that--but thats enough... if anyone wants the wristbands to the dub autoshow--just let me know! its sunday. then i saw some guy with his fake arm out the window with a hook on it!! but finally, after managing to get lost for a few minutes i finally got to locos to meet up with jason. after locos we went to the park and sat on this swing overlooking the [river] haha. i had the best time and i dont think i would have traded it for anything else in the world. by the way--rednecks ruin everything. haha. <3 i get to see my sister today then jason later! im so excited! i hope everyone has a wonderful day and nikole--call me later! i need to see you!! <3 Current Mood: cheerful Current Music: elliott smith [roman candle] (4 Comments |Comment on this)

10:36 pm	you were always on my mind Greetings nicole -- Here is your horoscope for Monday, April 18: You're feeling a bit confused -- and you're so frustrated, you've just about had it with everyone. Don't let that attitude ruin your evening. Keep your plans. They'll definitely cheer you up. i think my lack of social interaction, my endless hours with my face in a book, waking up at 630 or 730 am every morning, working 4-5 days a week, and having nothing to show for it--it creating this deeeeeep rut. HELP! someone save me. call me and lets hang out. i need something new. im only 20 and everything i do right now will greatly influence my immediate and long-lasting future. sometimes i wish i wasnt as determined as i am. sacrifices must be made. so here i am. im really looking forward to new things. anything really. new house. new schedule. new beginning of the end. i got into a screaming fight with brynn tonight. felt good in a way but i really cant remember the last time i went off like that. i know im passive-aggressive. what can i say? im the middle child who was emmersed between two very dramatic and problematic kids--there wasnt room for me to make a big deal of situations...i have to take my time and think them out alone...helllo psychology major. i deserved better. and i really am ok. lastly i just had this talk with my mom about expectations--and how they suck. the only thing i have high expectations for is spending hot days by the pool with my family and then family vacation. i have learned over and over again--the only people you can count on are your family. im lucky to be able to have endless phone calls with my mom and the whole time i think to myself how lucky i am to know such an incredibly selfless woman. shes my whole heart. or my dad calls me tonight on his way home from work because we havent talked in a few days because hes been sick... baby, i am blessed.
