10:36 pm	Long time...sorry everyone I'm so sorry I haven't written since graduating in May. Let me recap all that has gone on since the end of school. I'm working BK 5-6 days a week (mainly Mon-Sat) and day shift b/c we have a new GM now (Alex) and he thinks I'm the best drive thru cashier so he doesn't want me on at nights a lot. I'm also going to start working Toms River at night to help out my friends Mike & JT (on Tues/Wed/Thurs only). Penn starts in NOvember, their schedule is out and we play North Carolina Jan 3rd. I'm targeting a game vs Seton Hall in December (the 23rd) so I hope to. BlueClaws won SAL championship which was an awesome sight! I'm making a scrapbook of memories I'm looking for a real job that pays and has benefits so I can trim back BK and to help defray the cost of loans. I passed all my classes, with great grades.....despite the ageda that my soc of ed group caused me......and if i studied more for my soc of family final (I got a mid 80's grade) I would have had straight A's. Finally, the 50 greatest gameshows that GSN showed of all time, was targeted to the gameshow network. As, TPIR was not #1, Jackpot, Concentration/Bumper Stumpers all left off list. Current Mood: loonng day today (Comment on this)

2:28 am	massive sinus headache right now it's 230am and for the 2nd night in a row, I will be in bed at probably close to 3am. Last night I had a pain in the back and stomach from gas, tonight my nose is stuffed, and I have a bad sinus headache (pain from the left side of my face, head, under eyes...same thing I had as a kid, that sent me to the hospital for nothing.) I even called my mom freaking out and I woke her up. Anyway, Claws won 2nd game in a row. Kendrick pitched a terrific game...one that i wish I could have seen. 8 Innings, 2 hits, 0 runs allowed..12 strikeouts and 1 walk...Marson, Osteen, Diaz all had great games for Lakewood, every starter but Frith had a hit (he walked once though). Tomorrow, getting up at 10:30 or 10:40ish, listening to 11am Claws game, then class at 2, and induction dinner. Thurs: up in the air regarding internship..I may be going to Jamesburg on Friday and then I'll go home after lunch on Thurs.. Fri: Internship somewhere Sat: Working closing shift Sun: maybe going to Internship thing, then back here at school. Current Mood: i hate these sinus headaches (Comment on this)

4:46 pm	long time no entry Classes have been going well. I love my soc of the family & senior seminar classes. Internship is going great too, and I'm learning a lot. Work is going crazy because of the lack of cashiers, so I'm basically a closer for now, but hopefully come summer I'll go back to my mid shifts and day shifts. Penn is doing great, especially in conference play. 6-0 in conference, and plays arch rival, pain in the rear Princeton tomorrow and Princeton will choke. Duke is doing great, WVU too, SJU & MOnmouth have been shaky. Injury wise: the knee is fine, the toe is another story.

11:49 pm	classes today Seminar went well...before seminar, i had an accident and fell on the wet floor so my knee was throbbing all day and night. We had to introduce ourselves, major, and what we want to do in the future. We have to write a 25 page paper (Jenine & I are working together) and do a presentation. At the end, the prof wondered where this one kid was, but remembers that he misses 3/4 of the classes, and has a great excuse such as his grandma died. Well how many grandmas does he have said the prof. It was quite funny. In other news, I went to the nurse today for my throat, which feels like i have a ball or something stuck in it. Nothing was found, given meds for allergies & sore throat lozenges and ice pack for knee. Spoke to methods teacher today: found out I had an A on the paper (when asked why she didn't give feedback: "You had done a terrific job and I didn't have anything to add." Gee, so here i'm stressing and you don't respond with that comment. She also noted, that Kim came to her and said that I was worrying about failing, and she told Kim why would I think that. In addition, she told me that she got my message and noticed I was frustrated! No, sh-t sherlock, here i'm thinking i have no clue and you don't respond, at least tell me i'm doing right, and i wouldn't have massively stressed out. We had dinner Krista, Lydia & I. Ren cancelled at the last minute, we had fun. Then Soc of Ed class went good. We did the ritual, listen as the prof explains the class and syllabus (I've had Dr. Pumar before, so I was a bit bored). Then, I went to the coach house and talked with Lydia. We were just laughing and stuff, so we had fun. Then, I came here..talked to mom and Kim on the phone and was on IM for a while. I'm gonna get to bed early b/c soc of the family is at 11 and the room gets filled easily (it's popular) and I want to talk to some of my friends from other classes that I didn't speak to on Tuesday. Then, I'm gonna have lunch and go home for the weekend. Thurs: SOTF (Soc of the family), home Fri: pay day, bank, shop rite, out at night w/Mom, Madeline, Sharry: Girls night out, going to this home thingie. Sat: Working the dreaded lonnggg day: 12-close (midnight or 1230ish) SUn: up in air, either back here at school early for Kim's graduation or home Congrats to Kim, Marisol, and all other Jan graduates!!! :O) Current Mood: tired (Comment on this)
5:01 pm	winter break over...back at WPU My winter break was really good. I worked at BK and made some money. My birthday was terrific, Kim came down and surprised me and John as well and EJ and the 2 of us went out to applebees, and yes i did get embarrassed but I said that Kim was graduating to take the heat off me. My mom threw a surprise party the night before that her and Kim collaborated on. It was a blast. In AC on Christmas Eve, I won money so I was thrilled. The Chanukkah party went well, it was great to see my cousin's who came. Grades: I made dean's list again. I passed methods with an A. I just spoke to my prof today and she told me my paper was great. I got an A in death & grief and in animals. I got a B in child abuse & neglect. I was sick the end of the break and had the stomach bug and I have to get glasses at night. This semester's classes & schedule: Monday: Senior Seminar at 2 (25 page paper & presentation and Jenine & I will work together) Tues & THurs: Soc of the Family 11am Wed: Seminar at 2, Soc of Ed at 7 Fri: INTERNSHIP at GREEN in Ringwood starting 1/27 Later I'll write about the classes today. I'm gonna cut it short because Krista, Lydia, and I are going to meet Lauren for dinner before Soc of Ed class. Current Mood: knee hurts from fall.... (Comment on this)

12:03 pm	Semester is over... Methods paper is turned in after loads and loads of massive frustration and aggrivation, which led me to become emotional and had me blaring off at Kim last night. It is done and I am not revising it one little bit. You know the Ronco model on it, "set it and forget it." Well, "ship it and forget it". Que sera sera: what will be will be. Anyway, now that that is over I am relieved. Soc of D & G was an A, the child abuse final-the multiple choice was easy and t/f hard, animals went well (thanks to the essay's on part IV) and my drawn out answers that took forever. Today, I saw Prof C and Kim helped me move out of my room. I'm meeting Melissa at 1 to exchange gifts and then lunch with Kim before going home. Tonight, relaxing and Duke game (gotta watch one). Tomorrow, out with Sharon for lunch/exchanging gifts. Mom's birthday. Fri: Work Sat: work? then AC at night Sun: Chanukkah party! Have a good holiday everyone. Talk to you all over the break! Quotes for you Krystle: "She's writing a whole damn book, no she's writing an answer for the test." "This paper is driving me so crazy that I need some pleasure tonight, wait, I need a man." Current Mood: relieved (1 Comment |Comment on this)
