Yay for wonderful days and those wonderful people who make them so special =)

Another great Superchic[k] CD, which means some more great lyrics:

One and Lonely
it's not like they meant to hurt me,
watching tv, checking Britney, televised, my guys
checking out her thighs and I roll my eyes and sigh
it's not like I even need to be competing with unreality tv, fantasy
not for a smart girl like me
some days it's hard to be a one girl revolution

sometimes I get the best of insecurity
and it's quite alright to be the one and only
but today I feel like the one and lonely

It's not that I don't know beauty is only skin deep
just the skin I'm in, not the girl within
but one imperfection takes away my grin
not that I think I'm ugly, but
acne throws me for a backslide
I won't go outside
makeup can't hide how I feel inside
some days it's hard to be a one girl revolution

sometimes I get the best of insecurity
and it's quite alright to be the one and only
but today I feel like the one and lonely

oh, the one and lonely
we all have bad hair days
those nothing good about me days
just keep moving on caue they'll be gone
and we'll still be here going on
we have our yesterdays
no lunch cause the jeans don't fit days
just keep moving on cause they'll be gone
and we'll still be here going on

sometimes I have bad days and it's hard to be me
sometimes I get brought down by insecurity
and I have my days where I'm the one and lonely
but today I choose to be the one and only
yeah, I'm the one and only

This weekend I am going down to VA to visit with my Nana & Papaw. I'm excited because I haven't seen them in almost a year. I'm also excited about not being on campus for 4 days when no one else is here. I'm also looking forward to eating real food for lunch. But I'm also going to say goodbye to Papaw. I realize that this will probably be the last time I get to be with him. How do you say goodbye to someone you love?

Midterm grades came out today...ouch! I guess this would be the point in the semester where I stop procrastinating and get my butt in gear.

Haha...I dunno, I think this describes me pretty well.

Hungry, I come to you for I know you satisfy
I am empty, but I know Your love does not run dry
And so I wait for You so I wait for You

I'm falling on my knees
Offering all of me
Jesus, You're all this heart is living for

Broken, I run to You for Your arms are open wide
I am weary, but I know Your touch restores my life
And so I wait for You so I wait for You

I'm falling on my knees
Offering all of me
Jesus, You're all this heart is living for

Help! Help! I'm being repressed!
Ya, so college has taken away my constitutional right to drink orange juice at non-morning times of the day. They shut the machines off, and that whole month that I was sick, I was deprived of the necessary Vitamin C needed to restore my body. A couple weeks ago I figured out how to open the machine and turn it on. So I was showing my friend Sarah Hawk how to accomplish this last night, when out of nowhere, this hand tries to shut the machine on my arm! I was curtly informed that I am not allowed to use the OJ machines except for breakfast. No other explanation was given. Are we that cheap that we need to save the OJ? Is it an endangered species or something?! Honestly, what next? At least I'm not in Biomedical Ethics, like Emily. She gets to spend 2 1/2 hours every Monday evening hearing some guy in her discussion group complain about how the school took away his constitutional right to procreate.

Several people have asked me lately when I'm going to write another "serious" piece. Today I turned in the final draft of my personal narrative for Creative Writing. It's 6 pages, so I'm not gonna post it on here. But if you're interested in reading it, email or IM me (or I suppose you could just leave a reply on this post if you're that lazy). It describes my experience at the Western Wall in Jerusalem 2 years ago and it's kind of impressionistic/stream-of-consciousness, but I'm fairly happy w/ how it turned out. So ya, if you're bored or interested, let me know and you can check it out.

I have given up on Windows ME. If I don't upgrade to XP, I think I might throw my computer out the window...so I'll be gone for a day or so while the repair shop upgrades my laptop. Hopefully it will be less PMSy when I get it back. =P

My sincere appologies to all you who have been complaining over the lack of attention this website has received. Once I have managed to lower my stress levels so that I am not suffering from migraines or feel like I'm going to pass out, the usual wit and cynicism will resume. Thank you, that is all. We now return you to your regularly scheduled programming.
