Ok so it has been 29 weeks since I have updated on here, Not sure why, I guess Facebook kind of took over the lj part of my life. things have been really crazy though. I have been kicked/moved out of my moms house. I am living completely on my own for the first time. And find it to be really amazingly serene. I love getting home at the end of the day and opening the door into complete silence. It is rather calming. And I have complete control over the tv, and the computer, and what I want to eat and when to go to bed. It is really great other than the small part about having to pay the bills lol.
I am selling Mary Kay now so if any of you have some skin care needs, dont hesitate to ask. I have only been selling for a short while, but I really enjoy it.
I love my boyfriend, and even though we have our ups and downs like any normal couple, I truly see him in my life forever. He is amazing.

I am so sick and tired of the young ass kids that think they are grown trying to run over me and the other faculty of this camp. Most of these children are so fucking disrespectful its ridiculous. Kids that don't obey the rules and then argue with you when you call them on it are the worst. I just want to ring thier fucking necks. Since before these kids came to camp they knew that cell phones were not allowed. Every single day for the last two weeks we have been telling them to put them away or we are going to take them. But every day they try to push it further and further. Today was the last straw. This morning I said if I catch another phone out then I am going to take it. Well guess what I have taken seven phones so far. and there are lots of kids pissed off at me and I couldnt care less. I told them they could have them back after the recital was over, and if they or their parents have a problem with it then they can talk to me then. I will not tolorate being disrespected again. I will LEAVE. I WILL NEVER NEVER EVER WORK THIS CAMP AGAIN!!!

so i was walking out of walgreens today and i stepped off the curb onto an uneven part of concrete rolled my left ankle landed onmy left knee then my right ankle bent outward on the curb as i was falling. I just knew that i had broken my ankle. so i am on my hands and knees crying an d screaming about my leg. and there were about 10 people outside asking me what they could do to help me. Someone called an ambulane, there was guy kneeling beside me rubbing my back and telling me to call on the lord, there was an older lady on the other side of me telling me the same thing, a girl picked up my stuff that was thrown all over the parking lot when I fell and she went to get my phone out of the car and called my mom who was at work on the westbank ut she kept calling till she got in touch with her. so the ambulances were all busy so instead some paramedics in a police suv came, and a fire truck and then another police suv. there were two guys trying to help me up into a chair but because both of my ankles were hurt bad i couldnt really put any weight on either one so they couldnt get me up. then one of the fire guys who was real big and muscular came and put his ands on my waist and lifted me up into the chair like I was a rag doll or something. Finally the ambulance arrived, they transfered me to the stretcher, and the girl who had called my mom said she would come with me to the hospital and stay till my mom got there. so they get me into the ambulance and the paramedic in the back looked at me and asked if he knew me from somewhere, and then he remembered that he was the guy who picked me up from aprils house when i mesed up my knee almost 2 years ago. when i got to the hospital they took exrays of both ankles. and then i waited for about 2 hours to find that neither ankle was broken but both are really sprained, so they wrapped them both in ace bandages and gave me some crutches to come home with. it took forever to get into the house cuz there are like 5 steps up.so now i am in bed with both feet up. just going to the bathroom takes like15 minutes to get to the toilet because i dont have a good leg to hold me up so i have to take baby steps. and i basically cant do much of anything the next couple of days because its too hard to move around. And my usually bratty ass brother is being really relly sweet to me and taking care of me while i am lying up in this bed. so if i said i would come to a party or anything in the next couple of days i wont be able to make it.

So things are still rather hectic up here. Darell still hasnt been able to find a job. Rent is past due. our gas bill is passed due, and I am starting to freak out a little. School is tough but I seem to be managing. We had our Wind Symphony concert last Wed. It was much better than I expected but still no where near as good as Southeasterns worst concert. I had a breakthrough in Conducting, we had a test friday where we had to conduct 4 excerpts, and I finally used lots of facial expression; which is the hardest thing ever. I am supposed to perform in recital hour 2 weeks from tuesday but I dont have an accopanist yet. And I am very annoyed about it. With the wind chill factored in it will be -23 all day today and in the negatives basically all week. (Without the windchill its still below zero. ) So in other words, we are freexing our arses off. Expecially since the heater in our apartment only works when it wants too.
Well I need to get back to practicing.

So things have been a bit crazy up here lately. I have to perfrom at least 3 times on Arts at Noon recitals this semester to make up for not performing at all last semester and because I am now gonna be a performance major. So I have been spending my days in class and in the practice room. I havent practiced this much in a long time. But it feels great when you work on something and then it finally just happens. I got a little stressed last thursday after my lesson because my teacher went from being way to nice and not expecting us to do much of anything to expecting us (when I say us I mean the studio as a whole) to all be able to play our scales at Quarter note equals 100 and to play all these warm ups and etudes and solos perfectly after only working on them a week. And I worked so hard last week practicing my ass off but there is no way to learn everything perfectly in a week sorry. I am not a clarinet superstar. So I was a little stressed but decided instead of being aggravated I am just gonna keep working as hard as I can without screwing up the rest of my classes and life.
Speaking of life; it is stressful but good. Darell and I were having some problems and got into a fight that ended up in us having a truly heart to heart conversation about everything and since then everything has been going rather well. We had our "1 year" anniversary yesterday. And we were worried that we wernt going to have any money to do anything or even pay our bills for that matter ( I know bills are more important than anniversaries) and then my loving parent sent us 300 dollars to pay bills get groceries and put gas in the car. Then we found out that Darell is finally getting some of the back pay the church owes him for singing so he is going to be getting a 480 dollar check this week and will get another 400 some-odd check in a couple of weeks. So it was a huge sigh of relief because even though Darell has gone on a few interviews and put in countless applications he has still had no luck getting a job but this money will take care of our bills and stuff for a while. So to celebrate our anniversary we spent 17 dollars and went to see DREAMGIRLS. Only the best move ever!!!!
So we didnt think it was still gonna be in theaters but thank the heavens it was. Darell and I were the only people watching the movie so it was like watching a movie at home with an uber big screen and super suround sound. And it was in one word : AMAZING. I know I will be hearing how good it was from darell every day for a few weeks. And the first thing Darell would like to get when he gets a job is the soundtrack and the dvd (once it coms out of course: unless we can get it bootleg from my uncle who gets the most amazing bootlegs ever . . . example, pursuit of happiness seen over the christmas holidays at home with perfect dvd quality. ). So anyway we had a really good anniversary so I am happy. Well now I must be going to warm up before studio class.

Snow snow all i see is snow these days. I feel like i never have time for anything, but I REALLY DONT DO ANYTHING. i mean I do have classes like all day MWF but tuesdays and thurdays I have a lot of free time during the day. I just am trying to practince and get past this Rhetoric class I have. And not slack in conducting. Oha nd then there is clarinet pedegogy. I feel so drained by the time i get home that I dont want to do anything strenuous (sp?) And now Darell has me reading the Harry Potter books, I am on book two already, I just started this weekend. And with no Internet at home I feel like I have completely lst touch with everyone again, even though that was one of my resolutions not to do. So I am going to try and contact people at least once a week some sort of way.
Well I hope everyone is having a great day/Semester.

So i had the absolute worst week ever. Last Monday was the first time I ever drove in snow. and I was being super careful. I was only going about 15 miles per hour and I was keeping 34 car lengths ahead of me. i was pumping the brake to stop, and stopping way earlier than I ever do. And all was good until . . . I was in the left lane going about 15 miles per hour, this tan car was in the right lane about 20 yards ahead of me but she was only going about 10. Well instead of waiting for me to slowly pass her up she decided to get in the left lane in front of me and STOP. There were cars in all the lanes around me and no place to go, I started pumping the brake but they still locked up and I slammed into her. She proceeded to slide about half a block down the road. we got out of or respective cars and suprisingly there was no damage to the either car. AT LEAST FROM THE OUTSIDE. We decide (stupidly) not to call the cops and get a report since there didnt seem to be any damage. So I continue to school. About 2 blocks from school, (30 minutes later) my check enginge light goes on and my temperature gauge shots above the H. I barely get to the parking lot. So darell and I are freezing outside cuz it is still pouring down snow) and we cant ell anything about the car. So we had a friend of ours look at it, and he sees that I punctured the radiator, so My front in must have caved in and then popped back out giving the illusion that everything was fine. We fill the car with anti-freeze and pray that we can just make it home and back to get it to the auto shop the next day 9its like 10 pm at this point) Well we make it a little more than halfway home and the car stops on us as we are pulling into a gas station to let it cool off. So we had to leave the car there and we called one of Darell's Frat to come get us. The next day we get a cab to drop me off at the car, and bring Darell to school, because it is finals week and he had loads of shit to do. I got the car to start and got it to the auto shop. Then walk to school. That evening the auto guy calls and tells me he cant fix it cuz the air conditioner is pushed into the radiator and they dont fix air conditioners but he can give us the name of a guy who does. So we catch a ride home get a cab to the auto shop the next morning bring the car to the other shop. get them to bring us to school. Find out that evening that is will cost of 800 dollars just to get it drivable. We decide to call the insurance which we hadnt already called because there is a 500 dollar deductable and if it was less than 500 we werent going to call them. The insurance says they do there own inspection and estimate and then write a check for everything minus the 500. So the next day they do the estimate, $1187.13 and they have to bring it to a collision shop. So Friday morning I get a call that says it will take 3-4 days to fix it. This morning I get a call that says they found some more dammage and so the earliest we will get the car back is wednesday. So since all this happened, we have had to take cabs back and forth to school, Darell had to take a cab back and forth to the airport to go home for graduation. I got to spend thursday to today in the house with nothing to do and nowhere to go, and life basically sucks.
So that how my weekend went how was yours.

hi yall Im so glad that I got to see so many of you last week. I cant wait to be home for Christmas. Darell and I should be in for almost a month. So i hope to visit with everyone again and see the people i didntget to see last week.
So classes are finished in a week and then we have off for Study day the finals and Juries.
So i have decided to switch to performance so that I can get out of school quicker. And then probably get a masters in conducting. or Perforance before moving back to the south and getting certified to teach. It just seems easier to do that expecially since I would have to get certified wherever I move anyway. Well other than life is kinda boring.

Hi everybody.
I know I know I have been away for quite some time. But now that I got that job I seem to be busy or tired at all times. I have some glorious news. . . Darell and I are . . . Coming home for Thanksgiving. I know the suspense has got to be killing you. LOL We will be in from Nov 22 to the 25. I for one would love to visit with some of yall, maybe Bowling Friday night hmmm hint hint. . . I know that a lot of people are going to be out of town with it being the holidays and such but if you are home and want to see us then let me know. I cant wait to be home. Even if it is for only a few days.
I dyed my hair, I thought it was going to come out looking a hot mess but it actually looks kinda nice. Its Dark brown (almost black) with Red ( really auburn brown) highlights. Its a lot darker than I have ener dyed it before but I like it. I will put some pics on facebook soon enough.
We have a concert tonight, the oakland Symphonic band, Wind Symphony and Pep Band are doing a concert in that order. It wont be horrible but it def wont be great. I am going to try to to get some pics of Darell conducting the pep band. since I am not playing with them. only because I dont have a uniform because the stupid director was supposed to order shirts over a month ago and didnt, and I am sorry but I am not going to squeeze this body in a large shirt and I am not going to be the only one on stage wearing something other than the uniform. So I am just not going to perform. No biggie. Actually I am kinda glad, cuz they are going to look a hot mess running on to stage screaming and stomping and stuff.
Well I think that about covers me for now.

Hi everybody!!
So this weekend I put in Applications to work at Meijers (its like a big Super wal-mart), Kroger (grocery store) Walgreens, and CVS. I really need a job but I wasnt really expecting anyone to call me back because I cant work holidays and have a weird available work schedule. But Monday Kroger's called me to go on an interview. So my interview was yesterday evening and I GOT THE JOB. I start today, well I have to be in for 6pm. to do all of the paper work and computer training and they will give me a schedule before I leave. Best part is I get paid min. wage of $6.95 an hour. Which is more than I have ever made per hous at a job. The people at Kroger seem really laid back so it shouldn't be to bad working there. I am hoping that working will give me a lot less time to think about how much I miss home. I cant wait til Thanksgiving.
Well thats all for now I have to get to work on my drill for Marching Band techniques.

I miss home very much. I cry almost everytime my mother calls, or my sister calls, or my dad calls, or when I call them. I never thought it would be this hard to be so far away from everyone, and eveerything that I care about. (Except for Darell of course) I miss my family, I miss my friends, I miss Southeastern, I miss Pottle. I miss going to school and knowing almost everyone. I miss having people to talk to on a regular basis. I want to come home and visit. Some days I want to come home to stay. I love Darell, and I want us to be together forever, but being away from everything else that I love is really beginning to take its toll on me. I dont know how to tell him or anyone else that, I guess thats why it is just easier to write it down. I have basically closed myself off from everyone because It hurts too much to think about home, Lately I have only talked to my immediate family and Darell, I desperatly want to talk to other people from home, I miss them all soo much it physically hurts, but I am afraid to pick up the phone. . . isn't that stupid? I want so much to talk to my friends, but I dont know if they want to talk to me, so I am afraid to try. I dont even know who is my friend anymore, there was so much animosity between me and people I truly cared about when I left and at the time I just felt like it was for the best but I miss those people too. I find myself looking at everybodys pictures, looking at my pictures and remembering all of the good times. . . and now those good times are being had without me there. . .I have no friends up here, I find it really hard to talk to anyone, or to really open up. In one of my classes the other day we had to get into groups and I ended up by myself hoping and waiting for other students to show up, because I knew they would be in my group by default so I wouldn't have to work alone. At Southeastern I always had a group, no matter what class, and I really miss that. I miss knowing what is going on, expecially in Psi and DO. I hate not having stuff to do. I am so lonely up here. and very sad, very homesick.
