August 1st means our six month anniversary....




that is all ^_^

seriously... I really need to get away from the wedding scene right now.

don't et me wrong.. I want to get married someday.. and I think I may have found Mr. Right.

HOWEVER.

I don't want to jinx anything. 

I went to my lil sis from the sorority's wedding.  it was beautiful, she was beautiful, and it was a blast.  but after the ceremony and before the reception, Josh and I got to talking about our "what-if -we-got-to-that-point" wedding.  well what d'you know... we both want the exact same thing, a small wedding outside in October, 3 bridesmaids and groomsmen, neither of us want the "traditional" wedding march, rust-red colors, simple meal at the reception, and we both want my sisters boyfriend to play his guitar and sing either during the ceremony or at the reception.  our first song we dance to will be "More Than Words".... you get the point.

and it seems every movie I watch lately is wedding related... 27 Dressed, Mamma Mia, Becoming Jane (ish) ... not only that but my roommate got my addicted to Bridezilla...  AND.. Josh and I stopped by a jeweler that is closing in the mall and somehow the question of  "What is your ring size anyway?" came about.....

you see what I'm getting at.  I honestly think I would LOVE being Josh's wife someday.  I just don't want to rush things.. I mean, we are only at 6 months this Friday (!!!!!!!!!!!!WHOOO-HOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)  I don't want to jump to anything just yet.. especially having not lived together yet <-- that's the real test, in my opinion.

but you know.. I'm not going to worry about it because I think he feels the same way I do.  the whole "someday.... but let's not rush things" sort of thing.

I just had one of the most adorable moments with Josh....

we stopped to watch some day-before-the-4th fireworks while driving home.  some girl on the radio requested Good Morning Beautiful...our song.

and to top it off.... one of the fireworks shot off was in the shape of a heart.

AWWWWWWWW!!!!


when we talked about it later, I said it was just perfect.  he said maybe it's a sign that this is the real thing.

^_^

I came to a realization....uhm hold that thought..

I just got a drunk dial...from my MOM!!!!   HAHAHAHAHAHA how does that happen?!  seriously...how lame are you when you are 22 years-old and your 55 year-old mother drunk calls you when you are getting ready for bed?!?!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!

oooooo-okay... anyways... getting back to my original post...

I came to the realization tonight that I miss the old days.  back to my Harry Potter obsessed days of talking to Weirdo's every night and spending multitudes of hours chatting on the message boards.  I started re-reading the last book a few days ago.. so I'm staying true to my HP obsessions.. it's just not the same though :[  I do love Harry Potter... and yet I miss it all the same.

I also miss all the good/fun/random times I had a few summers ago.... especially in apartment 4 at North Ridge.  I seemed to be quite the wild child back then.  I was looking through old pictures recounting those nights.  the night I kissed 5 people playing spin the bottle.  the night we went skinny dipping in Lake Michigan.  the night a HUGE storm hit and we spent the evening in my room watching the lightening and taking weird pictures.  coming home each day to find a roommate watching some sort of movie..or Dead Like Me.  I miss tents in the living room and Pirate missions to steal signs.  Cigarettes and old dirt roads....

I feel like I've become a prude..... too old to have fun.

maybe I should take after my mom hahaha -rolls eyes-  that crazy drunk... I bet you she only had 2 glasses of wine and her run is spinning.  apparently she had a shot though... at least that's what I heard in between her massive giggle spells.  I shouldn't let her hang out with Brooke or Paul anymore... they do this to her all the time.  or at least I should be there with them hahaha 0:]

sometimes I wish Josh could've known me back then.. when I was more fun.  but yet at that time I was still in my depressive state... with all that crap that went down.  I'll just take him to the bars again like we did back in February.  we'll hit up Magoo's again with my sisters and his friends from work.  now THAT was fun!!!

ooh good times.

and now James in telling me it's time for bed... aka, he's trying to lay on my shoulders purring madly.


this is James by the way...my kitty!  he's almost 5 months old now.

so I realized that I haven't updated since...oh...February.....

well lets see....I'm still with my boyfriend and he's as amazing as ever.  I'm really hoping this relationship will actually last.  I can see myself with him for a long time :)  I love this boy so much, it drives me crazy...but a good crazy haha.

my big sister graduated from GVSU this semester.  She walked with a BS in psychology and is going back for her graduate degree in nursing.  sometimes I think she's a bit nuts for wanting to go back to school.... but more power to her.  she was always a better student than me :P

her and Paul's open house is this weekend....it should be fun.  they are getting a keg for the bonfire.  crazy SOB's....but hey, at least it's after all the "parents" have left.

I got a new job working in the mall.  it's for Silver Mountain jewelry.  I actually really like it....I'm thinking about going into jewelry when I graduate so this is a great start is it not!

I got a new kitten!!!!  his name is James (partly b/c that was his name at the humane society, partly for Harry Potter ^_~ ) and he is ADORABLE!!  except for when I'm trying to sleep at night...then he's a pain.  all he wants to do is eat my hair.....the little butthead haha.

now I've just been relaxing...enjoying my summer away from the sorority and people I don't like.  yea it's kinda boring at times, but hey...what are you going to do.


OH!.....Bre.....I watched your Pellagrino video.....HILARIOUS!!!!  I didn't know what it was for or why it came about....but it was still very funny ^_~



alright....well....that is all for my update.  kinda short, I know...ehh....ah well.  take care all!  peace

 I can't remember a time when I was this happy.  I can't even begin to put it in words.  I have found the most amazing guy in the entire world.  we've only been together for 2 weeks, but he has done more for me than all my previous boyfriends put together.  when he hugs me, he really hugs me.  he does these little things that make me melt and swoon.  he likes me for me...how I am, who I am, who my friends are, what my goals are, what my dreams are, what I believe, how I act.  he is exactly what I need in my life.  he makes me smile...but not just any smile....a smile that comes natually..and one that grows when I just think of him.  I get chills when I think of him.  my heart skips a beat and my stomach turns.  the world around me disappears when he holds me.  it's just me, and him...in that moment.  I find myself falling for him all over again when I see him.  he finds little ways to make me happy and he steals my heart again and again.  things from little notes, IMs, mesages, hugs, kisses, flowers, randomly showing up at my doorstep, telling me I'm beautiful, the way he looks at me, stokes my hair, holds my hand, kisses my hand......

he's all I need right now.  I am hoping with time that he'll be all I need ever.

 I PASSED MY REVIEW!!!!!!!!!!!

^_^

AAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

 every art student must go through two reviews....one after finishing foundation classes, and one after their junior year.

I just finished my foundation classes and submitted me portfolio for review on Saturday.

I find out my results today.

if I pass...I can continue on and take classes in my area of concentration.

if I fail....I have to retake the recommended foundation class or classes.


I'm already going to be here 2 years past what should be my graduation.....I'll be pissed if I have to stay an extra semester to retake foundations >:[


wish me luck...

 rawr.... I want the semester to be over.....

not only that.....I want my review to be over.....

and I have a LOT on my mind right now I can't even begin to concentrate on homework :-/




damn!...



you know.....I really am a fool....in more ways than one

 oh gah...people really piss me off sometimes >:[

I found somethint out a few days ago that makes me really mad.

I'm not going to say was it is or who said it...b/c chances are that they come on here and could read this and I'm sick of talking about them.

all I know is why couldn't I be mad at you earlier...would've made things so much easier.

so, this is the last post on LJ I'll ever write about you because honesly, you're not worth my time.

have a nice life

 blah.....what's new.....hmmmm


I got elected into an executive board position for my sorority.  I'm now the housing director.  I'm pretty excited for that...I may not act like it right now, but I'm so stressed with everything going on.

I signed up for my foundations review.  aka, put my portfolio together, submit it to the professors, and hope I pass.  if I fail my first review, I have to retake suggested classes which means I'll be here even longer!!!!  piss off, I'm not staying here longer than I have to!

not to mention finals are around the corner.  my drawing professor is drilling us hard core.  I have a preview day on Wednesday...yeeaa...I'm screwed.

business exam tomorrow.....screwed again.

CPS presentation tomorrow.....fuck....

on top of all that...I'm trying to get healthy and lose some weight for once in my life.  I' ve been eating better, but I can never find time to work out.  I actually feel bad now if I don't work out...which is good.  maybe this'll actually work this time.

and this single life is really starting to suck.  everyone I know from high school and all my friends in the sorority are getting engaged or are all in serious relationhips.  Allysha is already married.  Katie and Marcy are engaged.  Brooke is darn near.....  half my sisters are all steady.  and then there's me.............

...........

................

this all has been making me excessively down too.....which helps a lot -_-`   I'm not depressed or anything....just a little down and frustrated.  I just want to find someone to fall in love with and to have their love in return again.  and hopfully I can hold it for a year, at least...and for once.  aahhh....

guess that song from Phantom of the Opera is right....learn to be lonely. :-/

so you've  all heard of the law suit filed by JK against the Lexicon's publishing company.... yea, that's definately my friends internship.

gah...the first time anything majorly related to Harry Potter come close to home foe me, they get sued by the leading lady herself.

LAME, Stevie.....LAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!  you should've known better

 Boys are stupid...throw rocks at them.

what  do you do when you and one of your good friends have feelings for the same person?


......


I don't know either  :*(

I saw another amazing movie everyone should go see....

Across the Universe

absolutely 100% AMAZING!!!!

I immediately went out and bought the soundtrack and I've been listening to it none stop.

and I decided that I'm going to find myself an English man to date!

.............


.........................


................



okay..okay......I can dream, can't I?

yea...nothing really to report here.  I've just been busting ass in my art classes and struggling through sorority stuff.  what else is new....

HA!....awkward moment....when Sara and I went to see Across the Universe...who was working??  OH!!...it was Brad!  -_-`  erm...yea.... awkward sums it up pretty well.

I got a random message from Mike this weekend.  really random.....I hadn't talked to him since probably June-ish.  out of the blue.... it was nice talking to him.  I forgot how much I enjoyed our convos. 

so, i'm coming up on my 4th year in college.  time for me to graduate, right?

it makes sense....graduate high school in 2004....college in 2008.

negative.


I went through the GVSU catelog and searched out all the classed I need for a major in art/design with an emphasis in graphic design....yea, in order to get a BFA in Graphic Design, I need to take 84 credit hours.  84!?!!!?!!!!!

not only am I going to be here for another 3 FUCKING YEARS!!!!!.....I'm going to have to move when I search for a job.  I don't do well with change...at all.  period.

I'm just so fucking pissed!!!  WHY couldn't I have got going on this sooner.  3 YEARS!!!  god DAMN!

I'm sick of everything.  I want it to be done.

So......the last Harry Potter book......

holy shit...where do I begin.

first off....NO SPOILERS YET

so for the midnight party...Sara, Kacie, and I got to Barnes and Noble at 4PM to get our bracelettes.  Sara befriended the general manager of the store and he told Sara where we should be when the time comes to start the line.  so, because of Sara's new friend, the three of us were the very first people in line.

IT.  WAS.  AMAZING!

the count down....the opening of the boxes....being the first to purchase and to hold the book.  when we left the store, we passed the HUGE line.  we all raised our books up and the cheering was earsplitting.  I can barely put it into words how awesome it all was.

meh....I don't really feel like typing out my thoughts just now....spoilers will follow later.

right now I'm just....in denial or dumbfounded or whatever....I can't believe it's finally over.  we know what happens to Harry...we know how everything ends....it's over.  no more wonder or anticipation.  kinda sad...but still kinda fulfilling.

so...late night awakeness has struck again.....

for all you Harry Potter geeks.....remember Potter Puppet Pals?....

well....check these out.....live action O.o
