I LIVE!!!

In general, the last half of my 2009 was pretty wild. It was a great semester; I made friends with the girls from Korea and really learned about their culture. They are all so kind! If people here in America were as giving, this country would be a better place!!

While this past semester at King was pretty nice, Nursing school kicked my ass. I did great in all my classes except Adult Health. We had to make a C+ and I made a C-, so I have to repeat the course next fall. I think I'm going to get my minor in Spanish like I always wanted to. Now I have a chance. :) Everything happens for a reason, so who knows what will come out of it. I know God has a plan for my life.

I haven't made an icons in over a year.. I may dabble in that today. I work tomorrow from 6 am to 2 pm, then when I get home I'll probably pack up for King. I go back Sunday and I can't freakin' wait.

Kelsey and I got to move into the Honors dorm, Hyde. I'm so freakin' excited.. it is so nice down there! I'll take pictures and should have them posted by Sunday night.

I love you guys, and Happy New YEAR!

Hey, flist! I'm getting things together to sell all of my manga and anime. Not that I don't like them anymore, I'm just reading/watching every thing online now. :)

QUESTION! When you ship something, how does the recipient pay for shipping? Any tips you guys have on selling things here on LiveJournal?

Hello all! Just a quick update to state that I'm still alive. :)

- I've really been listening to some Regina Spektor lately. Her songs and her voice is so delightful and refreshing.

- I've been so busy I don't even think that I've posted to say I get to skip my sophomore year at King and will start Nursing School this August. :) I am so very excited!

- I had a scholarship interview this past Thursday to see if the local hospital would pay for my next two years of Nursing school. King's tuition went up (surprise, surprise) to $29,000. I already have so many school loans. ):

- Speaking of school, I have less than a month until I go back to King. I move back on campus on August 17th, and resume classes on August 19th.

- I went to my cousin Julie's wedding tonight and saw the most attractive guy I've ever seen in my life. He was the life guard at the pool, and when it started to get chilly he put on a T-shirt that said, "REAL MEN LOVE JESUS". OMG YES. :) I'm so mad I didn't try to get his number. But I'm sure he had a girlfriend. He was just way too hot.

- I have been reconnecting with old friends I haven't seen in over a year lately. It's been very nice. I've seen Laurel and Michael. Also, Katie and I have become extremely close lately. Ugh. I'm getting close to everyone at home again, and now I'm moving an hour away in less than a month. Oh well. That's what I have FaceBook and texting for. :)

- Entertainment wise, I have seen Transformers 2 (twice!), Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince (twice, as well! I'm kind of obsessed with Fenrir Greyback. Isn't that WEIRD?), The Hangover, and Bruno. Didn't really like Bruno.

- Where has my summer gone?

- God is good. :)

... a.k.a. an excuse to pic-spam you guys.

So once upon on a time, my hair was long.



See? She was long, she was silky, she was curly, and she was almost past my large breasts. And then.... the unthinkable happened.... AND I CUT MY HAIR! ZOMMMGGG.

The History of my Hair in the Past Year )

I hope no one thinks I'm vain. ^_^; I just always love it when people post pictures of themselves so I can put faces with names instead of icons with names. If you have pictures of yourself, feel free to post them in a comment!

So everyone is in a tizzy over this week's chapter of Naruto.

Here's my take on the matter.
My thoughts on the biggest fail to ever fail. )

This is arc has been completely utterly useless. Yeah, it was cool until this chapter. But knowing now what has happened concerning the whole Pain situation makes me wish Kishi would have just skipped a year's worth of chapters and just handed us the Sasuke/Team Hawk storyline. And what about Akatsuki? Unless we've got some amazing Madara shit coming our way, the whole Akatsuki storyline has been fucked over for us fans as well. Gah. FAIL!

Annnndddddd, I really need a new layout for this journal and for poor ol' [info]stardust_alley. Bless her heart, she's been neglected.

I bought a bike on Friday and have been riding several miles a day. I've also been dieting a little. <3 I'm looking to get back down to 175 pounds. I'm 210 right now. >.> I can't fit in any of my clothes and this is the biggest I've been. I was 175 pounds my Junior year of high school, and I would like to be that size again. I'm tall anyways, so 175 would be a great weight for me.

Ask me to take a picture of any aspect of my life that you're interested in - it can be anything from the house I live in to my favorite shoes. Leave your choice here as a comment, and I will reciprocate by taking the pictures and posting them as an LJ entry. That way you get to know a little bit about my life, if you're remotely interested in it.


I got back to King last night. Today was my first day of classes, and after class tomorrow, I'll post about what all my classes are like in one post. That way it's not confusing. ♥

Step 1: Put your music player on shuffle.
Step 2: Post the lyrics from the first 20 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing.
Step 3: Strike through the songs when someone guesses both artist and track correctly.
Step 4: Looking them up on Google or ANY other search engine is CHEATING!
Step 5: If you like the game, post your own.


1.) You play the victim, and I'll be the bad guy, oh I know better than that, oh, I know better.

2.) Can't imagine what it'd be like, with the sound of all my heroes playin' all my favorite songs, so I can sing along!!

3.) I'd assemble all the sand that cover wedding beaches, to build a castle so your Mom would have a place to stay.

4.) Scarlet boots, the kiss of death, Patience and the end of it, Blended angels, whispered love, Countdown til it's gone, for long

5.) All because of you, I haven't slept in so long, and when I do I dream, I'm drowning in the ocean

6.)When was the night that showed us the sign? Revealed in the sky, to leave all behind. But where to begin? Throwing caution to the wind, we reached for the stars, everything was now ours.

7.) Why are the robots so sad? We're not in trouble anymore anyway.

8.) Now I'm of consenting age, to be forgetting you in a cabaret.

9.) I tried every remedy and nothing seems to work for me. Baby, the situation's driving me crazy, and I really wanna be ya lady.

10.) Oh how I wish for soothing rain, oh how I wish to dream again, my loving heart, lost in the dark.

11.) We took a back road, we're gonna look at the stars, we took a back road in my car.

12.) I want yo body, need yo body, long as you got me, you won't need nobody.

13.) Everything is easy baby, leave it up to Weezy-baby, put it in a pot, let it steam, let it brew.

14.) Text the address, I'll see ya lata, baby calm down! Calm down, calm down, calm down. Run down, run down, run down.

15.) I know it's sad that I never gave a damn about the weather, and it never gave a damn about me.

16.) Before the end of the night, I wanna hold you so tight, you know I want you so much.

17.) I give you everything that I am, I'm handing over everything that I've got, cause I wanna have a really true love, don't ever wanna have to go and give you up.

18.) For someday you'll know, that nature is so, this ain't rain that draws you near me.

19.) Whenever I see someone, less fortunate than I , and let's face it, who isn't less fortunate than I, my tender heart tends to start to bleed.

20.) Hey, B-boys hit the flo' wit it, Off in Jamaica let me see ya heel toe wit it, Clown and crunk wit it, A-Town stomp wit it, at the set, jugglettes make they double D's jump to this.


If anyone wants, I can upload all these songs for your listening pleasure. ♥
