I havent written much lately...partly because i havent had much to wite about and partly becuase I havent had the time...being home is always a joy and a trial :-)

tonight I was on the plaza and I saw one of the horses that gives carriage rides with a huge icicle on his nose! That is SO awful!! I wanted Bear to take me on a ride in the spring, but not now! I can’t believe that they had the horses out in the bitter cold! The poor horse had like a 2 inch icicle on his nose! It mad me SO mad. I am SO not ever gonna get a ride on the plaza NOW No way, uh hu...not even…

what a...well..last 5 days! Graduation was way awesome! We went our for Chinese after the ceremony, which was really yummy. I got my parents sparkling apple juice for a toast and that way cool. I didn’t fall down, which was something I was REALLY worried about. When the president said will the candidates please rise, I felt like I was gonna puke, I was SO nervous!

I’ve been a candle making fool. I’m making candles as gifts for people this season and I’ve been making tons. Ive been searching the house for new things to put wax in. It’s been SO much fun.

I’ve gotten some of the most amazing graduation gifts. From my parents I got a car. My 1985 Ford LTD. From my aunt Margot and my uncle Timm I got a brand new JVC mini component stereo! It’s way awesome. From my best friend Kristen I got a fish bowl covered with cut glass in a sun and moon pattern. She did it ALL her self without a kit! Shes so creative! :-) from my friend Seth I got an awesome bubbles (of the power puff girls) watch. It makes ALL sorts of fun noises! My brother DancerBoy gave me a 12X14 framed collage of pictures from the graduation and from other stuff. In the center is the graduation ticket and in the left top corner is a Little note about me. It’s SO awesome! I really have got the best family and friends!

cookie are SO much fun to make. I’m currently making chocolate chunk cookies for the boys and some sugar cookies too ;-)

I’m on my 5th day as a gradaute...it feels weird to say that...weird indeed.

Today is the big day. And ya know how I started it? With a stress head ache and a broken radiator on my car. Fun day! :-( But my parents WILL be here and thats cool! :-)

I have to take my Monty in today and have him looked at which means, I may not be able to leave town - which means I may not be able to go home and hang out with my friend Seth :-( That makes me VERY sad!
Ok....this room looks like midterms, not finals. I’m still going to pack as much as I can today and my dad’s gonna take it in the Van.

I’m done, I’m done, I’m done! Wow! All I need to do now is NOT fall down during the graduation ceremony! (oh please oh please, don’t let me fall)
my final today was a bear! When I was done I felt like my arm was gonna fall off I wrote so much. I just wrote and wrote and wrote, and I really , REALLY hope it all made sense!

I know I got a B in Independent Living and a C in Issues, and prolly a C in Family Theory and no IDEA in History & Systems. Not too bad ;-) could be worse..and i know the whole theory that it could have been better, but even if I didn’t make the best grades, I learned a lot this semester.

snow, snow and more freaking snow!! Good Lord!! All this snow is making my brain hurt. People are missing finals left and right! It’s insane. KC is supposed to get freezing rain on Friday which means that my parents may not be able to get here to attend my graduation… :-( That would suck more donkey butt that I could even explain.

sheesh....3 finals down and one to go. Its the one I am most worried about too. It’s Family Theory - and I’ve got to get an 80 to keep the B that I have now. I didn’t do so well on the midterm either ;-(

I had the best smoothie today. It was an orange smoothie with oj, orange sherbet and strawberries! Yummy yummy! Why didn’t I find this thing before?
my fiance didn’t put in a schedule request so he is scheduled to work on Friday night - which wouldn’t be that bad if we were just going out and he had to cancel. but we aren’t. That is the night of my graduation!! He said that he thought the graduation was on Saturday - but I even GAVE him a a little card with the date and time on it. How can you confuse something like that?!? This is something that is monumentally important to me and he just spaced it! Is he gonna space our wedding date too?! I guess I am more upset about this than I first realized.

"OK Mr. sassy pants...yah...mr. sassy pants...thats you now...”

this weekend was GREAT fun! Seth is a blast and really funny too..once he realized we weren’t psycho! ;-) We had SO much candy last night at the movie its like we were on crack. I even kept my promise..I didn’t get him arrested! ;-)

We named my car....my 1985 Ford LTD - which is a graduation present - is hear-by named Monty(The Am bisexual Toasted Marshmallow Car.) He is graced with gold beads and a moon air freshener hanging from his rear view mirror, he’s warm and hes got a an awesome stereo! He smells like candy and he likes to drive slower than the traffic around him on the highway...or maybe that’s me. He did really driving from KC today...and I’m VERY glad that now he’s my baby! ;-)

this is the last Saturday that I will be a college students...eek.

off to kc today (last day dad will ever have to drive up here to get me) with Kristen to go shopping! :) Then tonight we have a “date” with my new friend Seth. What a luck guy he gets to take Kristen AND me out on a “date.!” It will be fun to meet him, and of course to spend the day with my nerd Kristen! :-)
i stubbed my left pinkie toe last night - hurts like a bit*h today. Its all bruised up. And then, to add more pain, last night right before I went to sleep I caught it on something and cracked the skin (my feet are dry.) Grr, so now I’ve got a bruise and a crack. But at least now I’ve got some medicine - a&d ointment - for it

“i want my first time to be with you..."..."don’t worry I will be gentle”...sometimes snippets of conversations are EVEN funnier than the conversation itself ;-) Kris and I were talking about getting our pictures taken together in one of the photo booths at the mall...I SWEAR! ;-)
