It's Almost the End

I finished the four page paper last night/this morning (even though it's only 3 pages long =(. Which sucks) so now that's out of the way. I also have two one page "personal statements" due in classes today (Can you tell I have the same prof twice?) and I'm done one of them. It took me about five minutes, so I'm not worried about having the other one done by 2:30.

I built a bridge last night. It took us a little while to figure out the logistics, but then we did and it was all good.

Classes are almost done =( It actually makes me sad.

135 days to Disney World. =)

Spring has sprung!

I like when it's officially the first day of Spring. I played with kids all day yesterday as it was FREEZING outside & had lots of fun.
Today I worked on OM stuff - we ran into a huge issue (aka Kenten left us) and so had to rework the whole thing, but it's worked out okay so far. Luck, be on our side! (Maybe the fairies will help?)
I also did a bit of research for my policy paper. It's definitely not going to be handed in on time (Tuesday) especially since I have another paper due Wednesday that I haven't even started and I think I have to read a play for that one. Ew. I'm too busy for my own good.
I had to get all my boxes out of Pipi's basement, which are residual from the flood, and I haven't even opened them yet. I literally don't have time. It's ridiculous.

Also, my neck hurts.
Also, I still love life =)

Mom and Amanda and Grandma come home tomorrow & Alex comes home Monday. Should be a very quiet week, as I'm sure they're all exhausted. It was nice spending time with Dad though. Just me & Daddy. =)

I'm addicted to Twitter now. Especially since Facebook SUCKS. Catch me @ ahaggert =)

Run.

Life is about to get as busy as it's ever been. Bear with me.

Let Downs

Not president.
Not vice president.

I'll survive. It's upsetting, but whatever. I have three more years, most people don't. I'll be overqualified by then. Plus I know it was a close race, very very close, so that makes me feel better =)

Stepping Stones

Intimacy is what makes a marriage, not a ceremony, not a piece of paper from the state.

Kathleen Morris

I've been making a lot of decisions lately. Some big, some small. Mostly, I've been leaf-turning. Angelica's here, this is who she is. She thinks with her own mind and makes steps with her own feet. Yes, other people are important to her, but what she thinks and cares about is what's really important.

Marriage means different things to everybody. Sometimes I think I'd be happy never getting married. Sometimes, I really want that "piece of a paper from the state." But, once your heart is married, does the rest of it really matter?

There's a rap song, or some song that goes "If you like then you shoulda put a ring on it, ring on it," and I think that's silly. Rings aren't necessary. Extra promises are too easily broken. If they're not needed, why make them? Why go to the cost and the trouble just to show off your love? I'm happy keeping mine to myself, thanks anyways.

I didn't win.

I'm not the new president of Delta Alpha Theta. I'm running for Vice President next week, so hopefully I'll get that, but I'm even more nervous about that one than I was about this one. I'm glad though, if anyone had to beat me, that it was Kristina. She's a great girl and she'll do an excellent job. The sorority will be okay with her in charge. I'm still sad though.

Thunder baby, rock that sky.

It's thunderstorming and I LOVE it. I love thunder and lightening, crashing across the sky. There's something so primitive about the sky breaking apart. Really reminds us that we're on a planet that doesn't really belong to us.

I'm housesitting in Amherstburg with Chris. We were supposed to go into Windsor tonight, but he wasn't feeling good so I made him go lie down. I wasn't going to make him drive all the way in. I just had my Saturday housecleaning list, so I'll do it tomorrow after church.

I make my speech tomorrow at DAT for president =) I'm excited. I reaaaaallly hope I get it. I want to whip this place into shape!

I paper mache'd half a tree today. It's drying, but slowly. Odyssey is going great. I'm so glad we made progress yesterday, it really makes me feel better. We're gonna go to Worlds, I can feel it!

The Wind Blows

I can't believe it's March. March 3rd, actually. Which is insane.
I've been with Chris for 18 months as of yesterday. I love milestones. Had you asked me two years ago if I'd be with someone for this long, I'd tell you hell no. It wasn't something I saw myself doing, and now I wouldn't have it any other way.
I have four weeks left of my second year of university. I'm running for President of my sorority on Sunday. I'm going to go up for a promotion at McDonalds whenever it comes around. I have two major papers to write, and they're both going to be challenging.

I also have a lot of choices to make. A lot of decisions. It's time to stop standing still. Time to stop being stagnant. I need to find where I belong, where I fit. I don't belong here. I don't fit here. I love the people I'm surrounded by, but I feel out of place. It's time to rectify that.

I had yet another ER visit the other day. There's a lump on the bottom of my foot that is apparently just a bruise, but it's definitely spontaneous. The doctor seemed convinced I jumped off a roof or something. I really didn't. That's not my style. Even when I showed him my knee-scar, he wasn't convinced. Whatta fool.

Times are a-changing and I'm not going to resist that change. Let's grow up. Let's move on.

I wish I was in Florida RIGHT NOW. But I am going on vacation in August for 7 days. 158 days to vacation time!
