03:14 pm: Okay really long time!
I don't even know if anyone is reading this anymore but whatever :) I am working now for real.... 40 hours a week for the REST OF MY LIFE :-/ this should be fun! I am at Natick Labs where I always worked in the summers and stuff. I am really sad that school is over and I am in the real world.

Yesterday was my birthday that was interesting..... I worked and then went home. My parents did a cookout for me as usual but as usual not many ppl came. GRRRR! I got good gifts from mom and dad... a train hat (don't ask its an engineer joke with my dad) and a DVD player. Not a bad deal. Hopefully this weekend some of the ppl from school will be able to get together with me and hit up boston! that would be great that would make up for yesterday.... i mean don't get me wrong I am not that big of a spoiled brat I thoughly enjoyed all the text messages and IMs and phone calls and such for my birthday! Thank you all for thinking of me!!! :) okay back to work :-/ at least for a little while longer.....

Early this week I fell skiin. OOH boy that was hard! I fell really hard! FuLL OUT YARDSALE! Skis gone... poles gone and everything. I made it down to the bottom of the mountain but ooh man I was hurtin... I went to get my thumb checked out and ooh boy did it hurt. the next day I hit up the ER and got a splint! :) wahoo it has been hot!! I think I can finally move it again. But- all i have to say is my body is all sorts of shades of black, blue and purple. I have never seen such deep purple bruises as the ones on my right side. My thumb is all sorts of black too :( ooh well at least it wasn't broken :) well off to enjoy spring break

CAN"T WAIT FOR DC WITH TARER!!!

08:21 am: They are with us forever
Perhaps they
are not stars,
but openings in
the Heaven
where the love of
our lost ones
pours through
and shines upon us
to let us know
they are happy.

-unknown

THEY ARE WITH US FOREVER!

01:17 pm: Hard road ahead!
I don't know what to say... I can't even begin to explain what is weighing on my heart and on my head... Other than it has already been some trying times and it isn't gettin much better anytime soon :( I WILL MISS HER! I love you Gram! 2-12-05

I am excited :-D Well- I need an easy week next week but I don't think it is gonna happen I have a quiz and a midterm on friday :-/ boo to that! Guess goin out on thursday is out of the question?!

Other than school. I have been up to the regular back to school stuff. Not doin work :-P I have become the QUEEN OF PROCRASTINATION! I don't know why... I am not usually like this but I think it has somethin to do with Orgo and how much I HATE IT!!

I am workin again too... teachin little shits one day a week for like 5 hours.... it should be a great time. I called out yesterday thanks to the massive amounts of snow we are gettin out here. Between the blizzard this weekend and the extra 6 inches we got yesterday... I don't think my baby is ever moving again... PS I GOT A NEW CAR!!!

10:13 am: Its been a while...
I was doin sooo good for a while there... now with thanksgiving and all I have been pretty busy. Well thanksgiving break was IIIIIInteresting! It was nice to see some people and not soo nice to see others. I love seeing the people from highschool i really do want to see. And seeing the old Natick crew was the best! I didn't realize how much I have missed them.

It is a really busy time at school right now... Thanksgiving break is such a tease. 5 days off then come back for 3 weeks and FINALS :-D wahoo... nope! Well christmas break is right around the corner. which just means workin all the time :-/ but SKIIING hopefully (if we get snow?!)

I can't believe senior year is almost half over :( I have had such a great time! I don't regret a single thing I have done. I have enjoyed every last moment and met some of the best people in my life. I don't know what I would do without them and they mean the world to me I HEART YOU!

08:33 pm: Thanksgivin time
Well school is over for the week and thanksgiving is upon us. Last week got better and better..... I got to see Justin on Wedns :-D it is great to see someone when you haven't seen them in a year!! I had a great time with him. It is just another night of memories with him... we have pleanty of years of memories, we have known eachother since we were like 15!

Friday night was Clinton's game. They kicked some serious ass! they weren't suppose to win and they killed them! it was great!! I love when stuff like that happens. the rest of friday night was productive. I wrote 2 cover letters... i still can't make up my mind as to what I want to do in May. I guess I will make up my mind when I graduate. Who knows?! Do I want to work for the army, get another job or go to grad school?? any help is greatly appreciated.

The rest of the weekend was a great time...

Can't wait to see everyone at home. Sometimes I hate to go home but I really am excited to see ppl from high school this year and really can't wait to see the Natick crew on Thursday... Eric's band is the best!

Went to wachusett today looks like they aren't gonna be open for Friday. :( BOOO i want to ski! and I don't have the $$ to go anywhere else. i can't wait for ski season! it should be an awesome time :-D looks like lots of ppl are gettin season passes and lots of other people want to go too! This should be fun!

WELL HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE! if you are from my highschool/home and you are reading this better see you soon! those of you from WPI can't wait to come back!!! enjoy the turkey everyone!!!!

04:40 pm: Hard Times... then Fun Times
Yesterday was strange... I went to lab all morning. Got screamed at by the TA and got shitty first results for our MQP. But- had to leave lab early to go to Uncle Bill's funeral. It was wierd. Everyone was there... all my aunts and uncles, pampy and most of my cousins. It was just wierd to be there.. poor pamp he has to go to a funeral and bury his brother and then go to see his wife in the hospital! He is insanely strong! I don't know how he does it.

Last night was awesome! Erin, Beth, Kristen and I went out for Beth's birthday. We were all really wasted. It was a great time. The bar was like all WPI people! it was nice to see some of the people I haven't seen in a while. I had a great time. A lot of friends around! I was waaasted. This morning I woke up with a POUNDING headache. Drinkin seems like such a great idea untill the Hangover hits! It was soo much fun though! those are the kinds of nights i will always remember about college! I love it here I never wanna leave. I can't imagine college anywhere else. I love my friends and i have had the best 3 and a half years ever! I can't believe it is really gonna be over soon :( I can't deal with it. It scares me.

08:13 pm: Bad to Worse!
I really seemed to think on Friday night that things couldn't get much worse. I will never as long as I live understand people! I got sooo pissed I went to the gym and took out some serious aggression. I came home and decided that it was time to get somethin pierced... OOH BOY! I should not be allowed to leave when I am that upset. Well at anyrate it looks cool and I always wanted it soooo if you wanna see it lemme know....

Saturday I got a call from my mom sayin my great uncle died. I have never really met the guy but I feel horrible for my Pampy. It just sucks... Not the greatest news to hear on your voicemail.

Sunday Mom calls again, this time to tell me Gram is back in the hospital. This just keeps gettin better. I guess she seems to think her lung collapsed again. We were supposed to hear today what they think it is but we never really did. Well at anyrate I have to keep goin with all the work I need to get done but I am goin home tomorrow to go to the wake and funeral. This should be interesting. Well I am just waiting for things to get better! Will people please stop with the bad news... It just seems to go from bad to worse. Isn't it supposed to get better? It just seems like it NEVER does. Maybe sometime.... maybe
