They say that girl ya know she act too tough tough tough

its been an up and down ride. thoughts have seriously crossed my mind in the past 24 hours to just move and hope someone takes me in. it hasn't ever been an issue of desiring to move its been the affordability of it. do i move to the cottage? look into what dad would charge me for that apartment that he has open? buy a one way ticket somewhere? conflicts are to the point where i just want to leave and not tell any of them where i am for a while. but that seems childish, especially because only one of the four is involved in these conflicts. i do need to move, soon.

hey, man, don't look so scared, you know i'm only testing you out

being stuck in your own world once in a while is so nice. fun nights with the people you grew up with but had sort of forgotten about. its the joy of being from a small town and really knowing who grew up in that small town with you. but once you return to that small town, are you ever really able to escape it again? and not just the location, because you can always move, but can you escape the people? both blessings and curses.

i've quite enjoyed the past week of solitude. the past week of my own world. i kind of like it here.

feel the rain on your skin, no one else can do it for you, only you can let it in

upon finishing the final and indulging in a little retail therapy (only sale racks!!), i got home and sifted through the mail. rejection letter after a month and a half of waiting. its cool. i just really need a job. kait made me cry tonight. i'm not really sure that it was her, but it finally hit me. i'm once again done with school and have nothing in the future. no plans. no money. kind feeling like i have no where to go. but after a pep-talk (thanks!!!), it came clear. things take time. and now, i just need to be patient.

but i won't be an insurance salesperson. i will have patience.

i'm through with you, too bad you're blue, i'll move on

i'm done... again... with college. passed with FLYING COLORS. already graded my final and had plenty of cushion to transfer this class back to good ol' st. cloud state. i wish i could say "bring on summer", but i'd rather bring on a job....one that pays well.

maybe i should start looking in london......

if you could be my punk rock princess, i would be your garage band king

found this quiz on jen's blog and had to see if my heart is really where i think it is. i guess it's not and i belong across the pond.

You Belong in London
A little old fashioned, and a little modern. A little traditional, and a little bit punk rock.A unique woman like you needs a city that offers everything.No wonder you and London will get along so well.
What City Do You Belong In?

how stupid could i be

when you're in the service business and people in the service business come into your establishment, your veins should run with excitement. but when those people whom you should be excited about leave no form of thank you on the bar, you should really feel like you are the absolute worst person in the profession ever... and consider a career change....fast.

another thing i learned tonight. if you are pregnant, the most disgusting thing(s) you could possibly do is smoke. and even though you're drinkin n/a beer, the fact that you broadcast that your husband didn't stop you from drinking that whole bottle of wine by yourself last night is the most unattractive and gross thing in the whole world. like kids aren't already entering a world full of uncontrollable toxins, here the mothers are smoking and drinking and making the kid helpless before he/she has a chance.

talk to me so you can see what's going on

it's mid-May already... and i ask you, wtf is this?! how did we skip summer and go straight back to late-fall? snow, freezing rain, now to regular rain. i'm going crazy...and freezing. where are the tulips and dafodils?...being slaughtered by mother nature, that's where.

dancin' in your wooden shoes in a wedding gown

wedding season is upon us. got my 11th wedding invite of the year last week. and that count will only take me through the beginning of august. who knows what will happen after that. spent my birthday at a wedding shower. not the ideal place to turn another year older, but as i get older i'm expecting less and less from the day. twenty-three is not all its cracked up to be. anything after 21 has just been disappointing. but, i must say, if you have to work on your birthday, being a bartender is the best profession ever. buzzing when i clocked out and had too many drink chips to use up.
