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!

Voice from Afar

I'm doing a presentation/paper on Jeffery Sconce's "Voice from the Void" article, and it's so funny to think that the obsessions with the paranormal started as early as 1900s. With how developed wireless technology is today - everyone thought wireless would be the new way to communicate with the dearly departed. Instead, I'm sure if I went to a psychic today, or had a seance, I'd use an old cardboard Ouiji board, and see a crystal ball. Typical over-excitement.

Reading week is boring. I don't like it. My knee KILLS so I called in for an 8 hour shift today. No money, but maybe my knee will last a week longer! I'm tired. So tired. But I'm going out tonight with K squared and Chris and who else, who knows!

It's Reading Week

A whole week off school, and I still feel like I have no time at all! Today I have an interview at a Tim Horton's for some painting job. And I'm getting my ear pierced with Sheena today too! Other than that, homework, etc. Joy.

Funniest thing in the whole world.

Back to the Dream

BLUE SKY is the very first step in the Imagineering process.
That phase where "the sky's the limit."
The page is blank and no idea is too big or too small, too realistic or too far-fetched.
Each notion is a vital part of the shared vision.
Every thought helps mold, shape, and improve the "big idea."
The only rule during this time of inspiration?
THERE ARE NO RULES.

This Feeling's Like No Other

I've actually been having a pretty good couple of days.

I've resolved to just let the drama and the petty hate roll off my back. I'm better than it - and they'll figure that out eventually. It's them who is losing out. I've got my friends & the people who love me.

Went to an AWESOME cocktail party last night & Chris got a bid for Pi Lam and I'm sooooo excited about him. I love being a Greek and I'm so happy he has a chance to see what it's like. I've met some amazing people, especially lately, and I'm so happy that I have who I have in my life.

I'm still working on the living here or living elsewhere issue. It's complex. I have to weigh my options.

I have a nasty cough, but my sinuses and head and nose are clear. Just my throat feels like it's BLEEDING and it's awful.

Today: Sunday School, DAT, OotM. Do I ever get a day to do nothing? Jeez.

Sick

I'm sick. I hate being sick. I missed 3 classes today which essentially means I'm royally fucked. I'm hoping I feel better for tomorrow so I can work and go to my class. And I hope that I'll be okay for Wednesday - Disability Awareness Day!

I've been trying to just sleep the cold away. it's working, slightly. But my chin is swollen. So that's not helping things.
