I am getting so stressed
And even when i'm not consciously stressed
I can still tell because my shoulders start hurting ferociously
and i start popping tylenol like m&ms
I am worried about my class schedule
Not about all the classes i am going to have to take,
Which is a pretty ridiculous amount to be honest
But about the fact that if even one class doesnt fall right into place
I will not graduate on time
How did i get that far behind? I decided to have a minor
Isnt that ridiculous? Apparently edu majors arent supposed to want
to do anything but teach. shame on them for having other interest
such as spanish. why spanish? how helpful is that...
Anyway, going to DC today! Got all of my stuff packed into a carry-on bag
Which will make Dr. Z proud
Giving a presentation, which given all of the above circumstances I feel i am ready for
Staying in a nice hotel in a cool city
Get to see Miranda!
And hang out with the suite
and hopefully relax
taking the advil...just in case

So here's the thing I pretty much love NCIS
And, i love how when you google image search NCIS
it says did you mean "Pauley Perrette?"
Because I am quite a fan of hers too
and Michael, Cote, Mark, Sean, Holly...you get the idea
But especially Pauley's
Ok...so don't judge me BUT
I also like NCIS fanfiction (ok this is me dodging the rocks being thrown)
but, although yes, most of it sucks..some of it is pretty good
I really like this part from a Gabby fic.
(and yes, Gabby would be a Gibbs/Abby ship..
i know, not my thing either,
but i am trying to be open minded here and I really like this part)
: She shrugs. “The people I fall for… I mean, full-on, no-holds-barred, swept out to sea kinda love… They’re tempestuous, they’re driven, and they’re unattainable. And as long as I keep quiet, they’re too caught up with their own lives to notice the way I feel about them.”
After a brief pause, she sighs and steps away from the boat, a little unsteady but not quite drunk. “So I stick to what they’re comfortable with. But hey, I’m a great friend…”

As she walks past him, she reaches out for the bourbon he’s holding. He tightens his grip on the bottle at the same time she does, and she jerks to a halt, scowling up into his face with an anger that’s misplaced.
Abby tries to yank the bottle from his grasp, but he’s stronger. “You’re cutting me off? I’m not even one drink past tipsy!”
“Tell me who you’re mad at, and I’ll let go.”
“I’m mad at you!” Her tone insinuates that it should be obvious.
“Why?”
Abby rolls her eyes. “Because it’s my birthday, and you’re denying me my God-given right to drink myself into oblivion if I want to?”
“Tell me who you’re mad at, and I’ll let go.”

:) someone writes her well
in a nutshell
1. I love Mexican food
2. i have probably worked at a movie theater for far too long
3. But it's ok, one day i am going to be a teacher
4. The people i admire most in this world, are probably the ones who would never guess it
5. Christina is going to take me parasailing ;p ok..maybe not, but one day i will go
6. I love roadtrips....actually...i love driving
7. I suck at emotional things..and cheering people up (i try to blame it on military parents...dunno if that works) ...but i will always listen if someone needs to talk
8. i love pictures of scenery and architecture
9. I sometimes wish my life had a soundtrack. i think it would be both amazingly awesome and horribly annoying at the same time
10. i quote movies that many people have never seen...
11. I like dancing...salsa, ballroom, line dancing, and dancing around just being silly. BUT club dancing where you are expected to look sexy is something i cannot really pull off
12. I prefer bars to clubs...always have....the atmosphere tends to be more low key
13. i love traveling...but i REALLY love coming home after a long trip
14. I'm not sure where home is anymore...my house is feeling much more like my parents' now that i'm not there too often
15. I like it when someone plays with my hair
16. I am a hopeless romantic and a determined realist. Yes, those clash. A LOT
*~*~*~*~*
so it's a rather large nutshell
1. i'm childlike, but not childish. It comes from having a wide eyed wonder of the world and being fascinated by simplest things
2. i love being active, especially outdoors: Kayaking, hiking, running, climbing, sperlunking...yay
3. I love my younger brother. Yes, he's immature and rude. I can say that, but i reserve the right to become very defensive if you say it.
4. Even though I was born and raised in SC, I have been told several times that i have no traceable southern accent. ie: i pronounce words the way they should be pronounced :) plus, i refuse to say the word "ya'll". The only thing that is a dead give-away is my use of the phrase "gonna bust your tail" meaning.."you're going to get hurt"
5. I was raised on 60's and 70's music. I didnt realize there was anything else until middle school :0
6. I think i am incapable of holding grudges. I mean in twenty years I've had plenty of reasons to rack them up, but I can't do it...nor do i want to.
7. For some reason I am harder on myself then I am other people. Although i dont hold grudges, i usually feel it justifiable that someone has one against me.
8. If i see something I love, i will more than likely share it with someone else. I'd rather give it away and share the happiness then keep it to myself.
9. I am really bad about keeping in touch with people. I find most relationships and friendships to be very fluid things. The way i see things, just because we havent talked in a couple years doesnt necessarily mean we arent friends, just that we lost contact. If someone calls me and needs help, it doesnt matter if i talked to them yesterday or four years ago, I'll be there.Whitney has been my friend longest of all, and it's because she accepts the fact that we sometimes drift in and out...but we'll always be there for each other
10. I don't date. Not that I won't, just that i don't. I'm kind of waiting for something special, that "aha!" moment. Don't tell me they dont happen. I know they do :)
11. I've been in love
12. i dont want to get bored with life, to keep it interesting i am always trying to learn/ try new things. For instance: wake boarding, parasailing, oragami, ishanryu, kickboxing, cooking lessons, salsa lessons, traveling (next i want to learn how to drive a motorcycle, and blow fire...not simultaneously)
13. i love traveling, but it's not about the places i see, but the experiences i have. I could tell you about the pyramids, the reefs and whatnot. But i'd rather tell you about the time i took dance lessons with a guy that didnt speak/understand any english and we laughed a lot and somehow came out of it pretty good friends. Or about the time i went street luging at Santa Monica blvd (and got pretty beat up), or when i learned how to skimboard in the pacific ocean. Or the time we crashed a wedding in Mexico because we were trying to escape the rain
14. I dont get scared often, but driving past an 18 wheeler on the interstate is a personally terrifying experience...every time
15. I need both the big city and the absolute country in my life. It's like yin and yang to me. I dont feel complete without either, and would never be able to fully give up either of them. I need dirt roads, bon fires, horses and empty fields. Skies that go on forever and millions of stars at night. I need tall buildings, street vendors, live music on the street corners and everything available at your fingertips. I need them both.
16. I work with children. Almost everything i do revolves around them. I find something so refreshing about being around them, like the world might not be as bad as i think it is, that there is always a chance of renewal, and innocence
17. But often working with children breaks my heart and i realize that when i take off my rose colored glasses, they arent as innocent as they should be. They have often been hurt, damaged, scarred and scared. Which leades me to...
18. I want to be a childrens advocate...in some shape. Havent quite figured that out yet
19. I'm also looking into the peace corps
20. My dad has this affinity for estate sales and flea markets...which he passed down to me
21. I have a deep appreciation for the 80's. The 90's were pretty cool too. So far, 2000 has produced nothing i find amazing (aka the music and television is horrid).
22. I really want to be fluent in spanish. I want to one day be an ESOL teacher. Maybe....whatever i end up doing, i want to make a positive difference in the world....
23. I would love nothing more than to take time off and travel...anywhere and everywhere, and write about my travels, and take pictures. and write a book. i have so many things i want to do that i will probably never decide and will be one of those 63% of the population that change careers at least 3 times in their lifetime
24. I met one of my best friends about two years ago. Several people..one inparticular... thought we would "fall in love"...and in a small way, i guess we did. Just not the way that was expected. :)25. I have a thing for movie theaters, everytime i go somewhere new i check out the theaters...i also LOVE film projection. i dont know why. I appreciate a digital picture. But i will be heartbroken when film becomes obsolete. I feel like it takes some of the magic away.
26. I'm a liberal conservative. Not the other way around. It might not make sense, but its the closest thing i can come up with. I dont like labels anyway...
27. One of the best/worst compliments I've gotten is "You're too smart to be a republican" =) haha i love my friends...plus, I'm not strictly republican.
28. I want someone to go parasailing with me
29. I am a very passionate person when it comes to what I think is right. I love to protest and will jump at any opportunity to say what I believe
30. I go to an all-womens college and I love it. I can't imagine wanting to go back to co-ed education. I spent some time at FMU, and was reminded why i appreciate it here so much
2. i have probably worked at a movie theater for far too long
3. But it's ok, one day i am going to be a teacher
4. The people i admire most in this world, are probably the ones who would never guess it
5. Christina is going to take me parasailing ;p ok..maybe not, but one day i will go

sometimes i kind of feel like this...
like i was meant for more. I can see it, but can't quite get to it. Sometimes i love my life, and sometimes i want something else...
"How do you wait on heaven, who has that much time? How do you keep your feet on the ground, when you know, you were born to fly?" SE
You and I on a crowded street
There was music everywhere, I can see us there
In a happy little foreign town
Where the stars hung upside down
A half a world away, far far away
I remember you were laughing
We were so in love, we were so in love
And the band played song's that we'd never heard
But we danced anyway
We never understood the words
And we danced anyway"
what do you believe in?
I believe in laughing. I believe in quick naps. I believe in good books, music you can dance to and bonfire weather. I believe in the importance of an education. I believe in social justice. I believe everyone is created equal, but not everyone is the same. Respect the differences. I believe friends can last forever. I also believe there is a reason some dont. I believe mistakes are in the past. People mess up, people change. Let them prove it to you. I believe i am sometimes a hypocrite. It's unintentional. i believe in love...all kinds. I believe long walks, long drives, and long runs can help ease the pain. I believe in you. i believe in me. I believe in recycling, in exercising, and in leaving everything a little better than you find it. i believe in appreciating simple things. I believe in kissing, i believe in smiling and i believe in living without inhibition. I believe all movies essentially have the same plot, but most are worth watching anyway. I believe in making memories, i believe that it doesnt matter how the picture turns out as long as you were having fun when it ws taken. i believe destinations are overrated, and journeys are often under appreciated. I believe in God, I believe that He is stronger than anything i will ever face. I believe in new life and i believe in butterflies.
I stand for:creativity, passion, tolerance, respect, dignity, ambition, dedication, determination, love, intelligence, education, diversity, beauty, strength, courage and confidence.
