    <content type="html">I got uptoday with the idea I was going to Jerry Springer. I called hachey around 10:30 to make sure he left the house and such, well he didn't. My phone call woke him up actully. Immediately the shouts of "get up, get the fuck out of bed you bum" could be heard throughout the house. He got here around 12:15 we had to be there around 1:00 to get in. We got there at about 1:15 and the lady at the door told us she wasn't admitting anyone else. We could have gotten VIP tickets but the guy who got hachey the tickets was nowhere to be found. Alas, I missed my big tv debut. Hachey will suffer greatly for this, let me tell you.&lt;br /&gt;We went to Water Tower and played around in sharper image for a little bit, got my mom her brthday gift and got on the bus home. I took a bath when I got home and I was a bit better, not much though. damn, i wanted t cause a scene and be stupid just for the hell of it. maybe some other day.....</content>

    <content type="html">When I lived in my old house, we had this enclosed back porch. The back porch was literally the land of the lost. Every toy we had ever owned was just stacked out there. It was a graveyard of barbie doll parts, toy cars, dominos, thousands upon thousands of blocks and legos, dried up play doh, dress up clothes, and books. I had a desk that was covered in crayons, markers, dried up pens, paints, notebooks that had been doodled in, and all sorts of arts and craft supplies. When I was in grammar school I would sit out there hours and build houses out of blocks or draw pictures to hang on my walls. Nothing fazed me when I was out there, nothing mattered. It was just me and my imagination. When I grew up everything out there was forgotten, we threw away al the broken toys and such. I could never bring myself to throw books away so they were passed on to little cousins or my mom's friends who had kids. Now I have my room, I used to be able to sit n there for hours and read ordraw or just think. My imagination has slowly drifted away from me and it's not so easy, I pick up a book and realize that I have read it a dozen times before. I have no desire to draw pictures because I can't quite imagine that far off land I knew when I was a child.</content>

    <content type="html">i hate hate hate hate people who have cell phones, but never ever pick them up. I can see not picking them up every once and a while if you don't want to be bothered, but god dammit, pick it up when you're not doing anything or throw it in the trash. My mom never ever picks up her cell phone and then yells at me for not saying when i am going out, or people tell me to call their cell phones and then don't pick up. Everyone has one so I am not aiming this twards anyone in particular, but come one now people, get with the program. this is why i despise cell phones or phones in general for that matter, because they make people so lazy, and yes i am a big hypocrite and i want a cell phone, but i swear to god i would pick it up or mute it or hammer it or whatever... just make use of it. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;oh and you know what else i don't like very much, calling people when they aren't home...</content>

We decided to figure out how our circle of friends came to be, we though about who were the core members of the circle, who joined us, who left and why, who dated who, when we all met, precise moments of happiness and saddness that effected us all.... we sat there for a good two hours and were only able to get to sophmore year. it'sa daunting task, but i think it was fun, our afternoon was filled with, "do you remember this one time" or "oh my goodness I almost forgot about that". it was very entertaining, we are thinking about making some kind of family type tree to represent everyone, and then making it into a poster. If anyone can remember when they first met me or mando or anyone for that matter comment back and tell me. Stories that really stick out in your mind that involve a majority of us would be awsome too.</content>

    <content type="html">I hate when everything goes quiet. Like when a cd ends or something. It messes with my head, because I was sitting there listening to the music and then suddenly it's not there anymore, nothing left to dance to. My goal is to make a never ending cd. It will happen one day I tells you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyways, for everyone who is curious about my new obcession with the term &lt;b&gt;sugar hippo&lt;/b&gt; ... It'sthe journal that Molly gave me for Christmas. I didn't like writing in it at first because it seemed so odd. I have never been real big into paper journals, they seem like a waste of time to me. For some reason Sugar Hippo seems to be making me feel better about stuff though. I'll write stuff down and cme back ater and readit, then i'll be able to figure out ways to make things better. It's weird to be writing to myself, I am thinking about giving it to someone when i finish it, that'll be like a year from now I wonder who I will know a year from now and who I won't. That's a very good question to ponder.</content>

I called congress today, just for molly, they aren't hiring anymore, the lady on the phone was a bitch. I moved my bed last night, I couldn't sleep and James was talking about how he rearranged his room, I thought it might be fun. It wasn't, I got all sweaty and almost broke a bunch of shit in the process, but I felt a sense of accomplishment. go me! Two more days of serious hard core job hunting to go, I have faith in myself.

    <lj:music>The 4 Year Sleep- Drive Like June</lj:music>
    <content type="html">My emotions are like %500 magnified right now. I've beed listenng to the Drive Like June cd mark gave me last night. It's growing on me every time I hear it. I like it a lot. I just got up and I am so not ready for tonight yet. Everything is making me happy, but at the same time amazingly sad. I have this feeling this is going to be one of the best nights I've ever had in my life. I am not going into it with expectations, but my heart is fluttering in my chest and not in the dread sort of way, but as if I am in love, like the world has some how morphed in a better place. I watched Pumpkin last night, if any of you get a chance watch it, no movie has made me cry like that in forever. It changed my view on a lot of things that have been going on with me and with the whole james and allie situation. You can't help who you love, no matter who they are, it just happens. I wish he was coming so I could say I was sorry and just be able to hug and and have everything be alright before I leave. He is one of the people I will miss the most, its not about anything anymore but the friendships I have. I want to be able to comeback and see people and have us talk and just remember why I wanted them to be someone I know. The tears are coming, it feels like this great weight has been lifted from me and I can breath again. I am ready for whatever is to be thrown my way.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;marquee&gt;*HAPPY NEW YEARS*&lt;/marquee&gt;&lt;/b&gt;</content>

    <content type="html">I just found out where I am going to be living is like twenty minutes away from Lindsey... driving. They don't have public transportation in Tucson. So I am going to be stranded in Bumblefuck, U.S.A. with no friends and no money until I get a license. Why is the world not fair to me?! Can't one little thing work out for me, just one. That is all I ask.</content>

    <content type="html">When you are holding hands with someone, when do you decide to let go. When your hand becomes sweaty, when their grip feels like it is slipping from yours, when they tighten their grip and it hurts, when something in front of you is in the way, when you want to touch another part of their body, when it's time to go, when you want to pull something out of your pocket. If you could keep holding someone's hand as long as you wanted, would you? Would you be afraid of making them uncomfortable? What about deciding when you are going to kiss someone. Do you wait for them to come to you, or do you go for it? Do you get nervous and start debating with yourself? Do you stare at their lips or at your shoes? Do you decide how long the kiss is going to be before you do it? After you hold someone and or kiss them do you think about how it went afterwards? Does the idea of being affectionate with someone new make you nervous? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;why can't we live in the moment? why can't a kiss just be a kiss or holding someone's hand be normal, why does all of this have to be a big deal. I think that we make it a big deal and if we didn't analize every look, kiss, hug, and smile we would be a lot happier in our relationships with people.</content>

    <content type="html">It seems like enjoying the last of my time in Chicago isn't going to be as easy as I thought. It makes me want to leave even quicker than I am. I feel like I have already been shoved out the door. I am thinking about canceling new years. Just sitting at home and being dramatic. Fuck it, if I am such a child than I'll act like a child.</content>

    <content type="html">I need you, someone to run to, someone to run away with, someone to laugh with, someone to cry with, someone who can see things through my eyes, someone who will listen and talk, someone who will go on my crazy adventures with me, someone who will not judge, someone who I can think about and smile, someone who embraces me, with all my faults and quirks, someone who doesn't expect anything of me but the truth, someone I can share the world with, Someone I can love. Someone who doesn't exist.</content>
