Summer '09 is goin fine!!!
there is so much to update about! summer has been insane! i've been so busy, and there's still so much to do! where to start?!
well, i found a second job. i've been working at Panera Bread in Colony Place (not tim's panera, lol) i'm their weekend bakery-line opener. my shifts are death. friday&saturday 6:00am-2:00 and sunday 6:30am-3:00. my body aches by monday and then i usually have like a 9:00-3:00 shift or something. the money is great, but i don't know how i'm going to handle this job when i go back to school, cuz i already had to decide to take the rest of the summer off from Seattle's Best Cafe, which makes me sad... that's a long story though. apparently some managers are incompetent, and don't know how to make schedules!
BUT, melissa is moving to texas, and she worked at a Starbucks in Bourne, and they needed someone to take her spot, so i interviewed there the other day and got hired! LOL. so i'm wicked excited, i've always wanted to work at starbuckkks! so i'm leaving panera and going to do what i know and love: make coffee <3
sooo basically, that's big news. OH and North Carolina for the family reunion next weekend! WOOO! seems like this reunion has been planned forever! ANDDD tonight, i'm going to see RENT LIVE IN BOSTON!!!!!!! it's my third time seeing it live! i'm going with tim, katy, niki, CoEn, and amanda! adam pascal and anthony rapp, from the original broadway cast are starring in it!!!!!! i am too excited for words! this is going to be an amazing night! i have to go get ready, but i'll update about other crazy summer stuff later!!!
NO DAY BUT TODAY!!!!!!!!! |

| | la la la i miss band! | ] | just a few more weeks til finals/summer!!! i can't believe it. it's coming up fast, and that's a good thing :-)
friday 4/3 i went to dartmouth to chill with UMD peeps and tim, boots, nikki, and i went to the rock-a-wish concert. we saw some pretty cool bands (the release, stealing janes, and zox) for a nice cause. fun night!
hmmm lets see... tim and i made a cheesecake a few weekends ago. yum yum we're good cooks. we used too much creamcheese and it was goopy oops, but i made kick ass crust.
i had bronchitis a few weeks ago, and i still have shit in my chest... i hope it's just allergies.
easter was sunday. fun stuff. tim and i made a very traditional bunny cake. michaela and tom brought their doggy Lennox over. oh man he's getting huge! got to see CoEn. and uncle frank and his new...finance? yeah, he and paula are engaged now holy crap, they brought karina and william, who i hadn't seen since like last easter! they are so big and still sound russian! heeheeee! so, we had a full house for easter. even nini came and she was playin with marmalade! tim stopped by later. before he left, he went out to his car, then came back in carrying a build-a-bear box! he made me a fuzzy bunny :-D :-D he is like, the cutest, most adorable thing everrrr ahhhh! <3333
so, my huge self-assessment paper for organizational behavior is done! i wrote almost 12 pages of total bullshit! glad that's over with. i don't think i have any more huge final projects so yay!
i think my schedule is all set for next fall. i only need 6 more classes to graduate!!!!!!!!! i wish i could take them all next fall, but why rush it, cuz then i'd have to pay for my own health care and blah blah and i DO NOT want to take quantitative methods online, so i'll just take it next spring along with the management seminar, and maybe a music class, or an internship. i can't believe i have 1 year left. super awesome. if/when i get a second job this summer, the earnings will be set aside for my future condo. idk when i'm gonna have to move out... probably not til the fall after i graduate. so 2 more summers here? i can live with that. i'm rambling now sorry :-p
the band kids had their spring concert tonight! they were amazing! oh man, they played "to tame the perilous skies" which we played my sophomore year, and it's the hardest piece ever, and they were incredibleeeee! i had goosebumps. mr. porter was so proud of them! i can't believe it was his last concert! ahhh! made me miss band lots and lots.
long weekend! then a short week, regular week, and 1 more monday, then finals, dance recital weekend, 1 more final, THEN FREEDOM! it's gonna be fucking fantastic... busting out the flip flops 8-)
going to cuddle with build-a-bear bunny (still needs a name.... and a gender.... lol) oh hay, 1 month til our 4 and 1/2 years! |

| | sick | ] |
spring break didn't feel like spring break. it was too early/no one else was off. i spent most of the week in dartmouth with tim, since their break wasn't til the following week. i went to class with him and got to see what his nursing major is like lol. i hung out with jenn one day, and it was fun catching up. that wednesday, i had nothing to do, and a lady who works at my mom's preschool called out sick, so i got to play substitute! i went to work with my mom and hung out with 4 and 5 year olds all day. i really dont like kids, but these guys weren't so bad. they were kinda cute actually. i played blocks with them and helped them do a craft and even read them a story. it was fun meeting my mom's students. they all wanted to sit next to me. haha i was a big hit. that friday night, tim and i hung out/went to the movies/went to sam diego's/went to the beach with john, dan, caitlin, and sam. yay plymouth peopleeee! that saturday night i slept over tim's :-) blah blah blah that was spring break. yup, no hours at work. fml.
the following week, tim was on break, which was awesomeee cuz he was home all week, which i loveee when he's home. it makes life soooo much easier. st. patrick's day was pretty crazy this year! we went to boston with john and scott, and john's friends. we walked around boston all afternoon, and they got a hotel room, so we basically drank, and drank, and drank and oh shit i was too drunk to take my train home, so i had to take the late one ooops! but it was fun. megan met up with us too! i couldn't stay the night cuz i had class the next day gurrr.
so, hours at work are non existent. this is my 3rd or 4th week without hours, i've lost track. someone called out friday so i got a little 4 hour shift, but besides that, i've had nothing. it pisses me off. no one else is hiring right now. they're all waiting for summer. there's stuff i want to buyyyy (new glasses, hair cut) but i can't cuz i have car payments and gas to pay for. makes me so mad not having extra cash. and i'm bored out of my mind. not good. frickin economy.
it's spring. doesn't feel like it. plus, i have bronchitis. OH JOY *dies* i really can't wait for summer. only 4 weeks of classes left after this. and ohhh family reunion info! (e-mail from aunt dot & tressie)

4 years ago today, Timothy Emil Lovely asked me to be his girlfriend.
i said yes.
that was the best decision i have ever made in my entire life <3
happy 4 years my lovely :-)
so friday tim called me as he was on his way back to plymouth, and gave me six heartattacks. he flipped his jeep and rolled. he was fine, not a scratch on his body thank god. scary stuff :-( RIP jeep. we still ended up going to Newport for dinner. we went to Mama Lusia's, the excellent itallian restaurant we went to last year for our anniversary. the shrimp was even more amazing than i could possibly imagine remembering! after dinner we explored around and had icec cream at cold stone. i hope we can go back in the spring. tim slept over friday and saturday since his parents were out of town and tim needed rides to work. i wish i didnt have so much freakin homework this weekend so we could have spent more time cuddling and less time bullshitting papers.
this morning tim surprised me with a new watch! it's beautiful :-) theres a picture of it in the link:

whats up. same old same old. none of my classes are interesting anymore. they're all boring and pointless. especially my online contemporary sculpture course. advice of the semester- don't ever take an online course. especially and online art course. my business courses are in no way related to business management whatsoever. i'm really pissed because i want to learn manager skillz yo. work is work. i feel like i live there cuz i do the 3 days in a row thing plus wednesday. i mean, i love cafe, and i'm excited for holiday promotion (EGGNOG LATTES NOV 5th!) but i don't have a real set schedule. the hours vary. sometimes i get 27 a week and sometimes i only get 24. its weird. i like opening by myself, its nice. but its so hard to do a closing shift on a saturday when i can't get any homework done in the morning, and then i have to be back at the store early sunday morning. ughh. so this weekend tim and i are taking off from work, and we're going to Umass Amherst to visit john, and go to Umass Band Day! i am very excited. i love our road trips. and hopefully i can go to dartmouth next week for halloween and stuff. our 4 year anniversary is 3 weeks from sunday omgggg. i can't wait.
boofy died a year ago... i miss him so much. he loved autumn. i've been thinking about him a lot lately. he was such a good kitty. </3
the carrot cake tim made me for my birthday is almost gone. i put it in the freezer so it would keep longer but my family keeps eating it. merr.
i'm getting fat. i need to exercise. thank god for ballet.
i had a cold a few weeks ago, and theres still crap in my chest. it won't go away and it's gross. allergies need to go away too. i need to stop using so many kleenex... poor trees. so yeah, i'm sick of school, homework, tests, and projects. its only midterm wtf. there is a bunch of stuff i am sick and tired of. but i have to live with it til winter break. some days, i am just so unhappy but i feel like i can't talk about it because no one will understand. it suckssssss. whatever, at least this weekend should be fun. If I could say what I want to say, I'd say I want to blow you away. Be with you every night, Am I squeezing you too tight? If I could say what I want to see, I want to see you go down on one knee. Marry me today. Yes I'm wishing my life away, With these things I'll never say. |

classes are bearable, thank god. i only have classes on tuesdays and thursdays, 8:00am-3:15pm. 5 classes back to back, and an online course. 8:00 anthropology of women- no tests/midterm/final for that class sweet. she cancelled today, wicked sweet. 9:30 service operations management- typical business professor. 11:00 managerial accounting- pretty cool professor. no balance sheets, wicked awesome. 12:30 personnel development- ancient lady but not too bad. theres a kid from plymouth in my class so yay someone to talk to. learning how to be a trainer should be fun. we'll be working with the american red cross for a project so it sounds pretty cool. 2:00 fundamental information systems- funny wise-guy professor. we have to look up fun random websites for assignments. he said all the hard work will be handed in before thanksgiving, so thats pretty nice. online course- its my second year seminar, writing intensive. its called contemporary sculpture. its stupid but the art is cool so far.
i hate trying to find a parking space. and it took me 20 minutes to get off campus today because of all the people taking that left turn. waste of life.
my birthday is in less than a month! 21?!?! i kinda want to have a party on halloween cuz thats a friday night. woooo.
work tomorrow, just a 6 hour shift. classes thursday, then going up to Umass Dartmouth for tim's birthday! my baby is gonna be 20! we're going to dave&busters in providence and i'm staying up there for the night :-) we will have all day friday to spend together :-D i miss my timmy so much.

i took friday and saturday off because we thought friday was tim's move in day, but it actually wasn't til sunday, so we had 2 days off together. friday we slept in, and that afternoon tim loaded our bikes onto his jeep and we went bike riding down the canal. it was such a nice afternoon, not too hot, not too cold or windy. good exercise! then we found a mini golf place! i was being so cocky, and i was winning, but then i became over confident, and started messing up, so tim beat me my 2 strokes! lol. it was fun. we had never been biking or mini golfing together before! we will def do it again cuz we had a great time. tim started packing on saturday. it made me really bummed out. but that night we went to humarock to visit my great aunt mary and great uncle vic. my parents, niki, and matt were there too. tim and i took a walk along the beach. i can't believe this was the first time i made it up to humarock all summer ahh i'm so pissed at myself. but we had a pretty fun night. i finally got to taste one of uncle vic's famous pina coladas!!! it was more delicious than i ever imagined. aunt mary made so much pasta, meatballs, and eggplant! her italian cooking is to die for! tim and i were so full, but we still went to sam diego's for our last fried ice cream of the summer. (we treated ourselves because we collected $20 in bottle/can returns! friggin sweetness.) i didnt want to get up on sunday. i died when my phone alarm went off. i had to go to work, and tim had to leave for school. i just wanted to beg him to stay. work was absolutely horrible. nothing went right. i fucked up drinks and everything. after work, i went up to dartmouth for the night. tim is in a pretty nice suite and his dorm is way better than last year. monday morning we got up, showered, and tim took me out for bagels and coffee. i had to work at noon so i had to leave at 10:45. i didnt want to go. i wanted to steal tim and take him home with me. last night was the first time in over a week that i had to sleep alone :-( i dont like it. i had gotten really used to sleeping together. merr.
i didnt have hours today so i got some stuff done around the house, and i got my hair cut and highlighted. i have one layer and side bangs now. its different, but i feel less boring now hah. i finally uploaded my Maine pictures to facebook. i think i am going to be hooked on the 90210 series now. i watched the first part of the premiere tonight and it was kinda good. ahhh i cant have another t.v. show! i already have 2!
ugh classes start thursday for me. 1 more day of summer. shit, that went by way too fucking fast. i feel like summer didnt even happen. i feel like we jumped, and now its back to the rat race. i hate this already. i hate not having him right here. i fucking hate this and its only been 2 days. "Say a prayer, the summer nights are dead. The fall is coming. We were careless hearts, Who got caught up in this.
You were shy, till the night you drove me wild. And you crashed into me. And I won't lie, I wish it lasted a lifetime.
Please stay,won't you stay,tonight?
Breathe in deep and say goodbye, The saddest song I'll ever write, For anyone, anytime. Breathe in deep before I say, I can feel us slip away, You're almost gone. You're good as gone. August is over.
Now we wait, cause August had to end. All our bags are packed. Just two broken hearts, that got caught up in this.
I deny, that tomorrow you'll be gone, And so far from me. It's something strange, Never love the same way.
We can try to drown it out, But it never stops breathing. We can take it all in, But it never slows down. We've come down from that cloud.
Well say, what you gotta say. Please say, what you gotta say..." |

tim and i left plymouth around 6:20 sunday night. we had 3 sets of directions lol so we didnt get lost! we got to fayette, ME a little before 10:30. CoEn, lyssa, and neil were there, and we started the fun right away. we sat out on the dock and gazed at the starts. it was so beautiful. so many stars! and we could even see the milky way! incredibleeeeee. it was so peaceful. totally loved it. except the out-house. lmao.
the kids had our own cabin. tim and i were instructed by my parents to sleep in different rooms... yeah right haha. the next morning, auntie dot stuffed us with blueberry pancakes! and i got 11 mosquito bites on my feet ow. then my parents and niki arrived. tim brought his 3 kayaks and colleen had 3 also, so we all went kayaking! i loved it! we went all around the pond/lake. we saw a beaver dam, and docked near a stream and wandered around. then we headed back to the cabin to grab some fun drinkable stuff and kayaked out to where theres usually an island, but it was more like the sunken island cuz there was no where to dock. we chilled there for a while and it was the most relaxing time everrrr. we were all pretty crazy by that afternoon! we paddled back for dinner. uncle mike made the most mouthwatering steak you can imagine. tim and i took a nap while the others went to the general store to stock up on munchies. we all just chilled the rest of the night, and colleen put watermelon in the blender! we had a camp fire and roasted marshmallows and made s'mores :-) then we told ghost stories til niki blew up her finger with a sparkler LOL. it was a very relaxing day.
tuesday morning, auntie dot turned us into blueberry pancake monsters again! then tim and i took a nice long walk. maine is absolutely beautiful. so many trees. it was so chilly out, it felt like fall. we chilled all morning and more of colleen's friends came down, kathleen and pat. later auntie dot took me and tim for a walk to see where their new cabin (uncle mike's dreamhouse) is being built. its pretty cool. then tim and i hung out with colleen, lyssa, and neil til 4:30 when we decided to head home. we stopped by Outback for dinnerrrrr. and we made it home by 10:00. very fun vacation. we're totally going back next summer :-D |

i need this last week of summer to go by slower than a dead turtle. sorry, that was disturbing, but i'm serious. i need time to slow the hell down. work short shift tomorrow, and sunday. then tim and i are driving up to maine to hang out with CoEn, auntie dot, and uncle mike! they have a cabin up there. i have never been to maine before, and i've alaways wanted to go, so i'm excited. CoEn's friend lyssa will be staying up there too yay! my mom, dad, and niki are driving up monday morning. we'll be there til tuesday night. tim is bringing his kayak and hes gonna teach me how to row! it should be a fun vacation!
then i'm working wednesday, but that's if for the week. we thought tim's move-in day was friday, but its not til next sunday, so we have 3 whole days together before he has to leave. we want to plan a little trip or something. cape cod? newport? canobie lake? the vineyard? something really special.
ugh. i dont want him to leave. i dont want to be all alone. i have gotten so used to sleeping next to him all night, and waking up together, all warm and snuggly. i dont know what the hell i am going to do. my mom said that he won't be able to stay here on weekends like he did last semester, and i dont know why. my grades were excellent last semester. i made freakin dean's list! so i dont understand why he can't stay here, or why she won't let me stay at his house. i know we're not married yet, but she needs to understand that our relationship is different from her's and my dad's when they were our age. if they give me crap this year, then i'm not gonna have a choice, i'm gonna have to live on campus senior year, which means i will keep my car, and they will have to get niki her own. i dont want to screw them over, i think i'd rather save money by commuting and just get a new car for senior year. but if they drive me crazy this year, and are still being overprotective and giving me shit about tim, then i will have no choice. i'm gonna be freakin 21 in a little over a month, so they will need to relax a little.
i got a dry erase calendar and hung it on my door. i am going to keep track of when i exercise. the goal will be something like 30 minutes, 3 times a week, and ballet for 1 1/2 each week. i think i'll stay healthier if i exercise. i dont have time to get sick this year.
i am not spending $600 on books this semester. i finally figured out how to look up my books i will need, and i found 2 on amazon, both were under $40 each, FUCKING YESSS!! and i am getting my 3 anthropology books from Borders. omfg, this is why i love working at a bookstore, discount on school books!!!!! i hope this tuesday/thursday class thing will work out. i have never had an 8:00am college class before. i have a bad feeling about it, but its just anthropology of women. i only have 8 days of class in september. haha i already counted.
i dont want to go back. i am done with college and learning. i just want my degree. i just want to start real life.
why can't summer last forever? these lyrics summed up my summer last year, and they still do this year.
"We watch the season pull up it’s own stakes. And catch the last weekend of the last week. Before the gold and the glimmer have been replaced. Another sun soaked season f a d e s away.
You have stolen my heart You have stolen my heart
Invitation only, grand farewells. Crush the best one, of the best ones. Clear liquor and cloudy eyed, Too early to say goodnight.
You have stolen my heart You have stolen my heart
And from the ball room floor, we are in celebration. One good stretch before our hibernation. Our dreams assured, and we all will sleep well, Sleep well.
Watch you spin around in your highest heels. You are the best one, of the best ones. We all look like we feel.
You have stolen my , you have stolen my , You have stolen my heart.
