I am alive and well here at MSU.
Our room is all set up now and it is really cute.
Lora is pretty much the best person to live with ever, minus her habit of spilling everything ;).
The first day of classes went alright, except math.
"numbers will never equal letters, so fuck algebra" I said that to Lora saturday and I still fell the same after class today.
My women in lit class is taught by this young british grad student who I can only think to describe as school marm-ish.
I showed Lora my tree. (it should go without saying that she too has fallen in love with it)
And she got to see my eyes turn green, oh the bonding power of tears.
I miss home, but I love it here, and I feel really comfortable.
I miss you, more than words. No worries please. at all. ever.
love.
libraries.
oceans.
galaxies of it.

this is how I write ;)

...But I need you to know that I care, and I miss you.

I leave for school in the morning, and I am getting excited.
Although I will of course miss you more than words.
Some days people really confuse me, and someone made today one of those days, but I'm okay with all of the things said hinting at meaner thoughts. Because I'm okay with who I am.
I am going to go read "Everything is Illuminated" now, that book is fountain hopping wonderful.
Goodnight everyone, and because I have wanted to say this but it always seems borderline inappropriate "I guarantee that you'll wake in a better place, in a better time."
love.

...talk about it somewhere only we know.

So lately for the most part I have been not so okay, I wanted to wait until I was okay to write about it because I hate sad entries...also none of you care to read 500 word bitch-fest, so from that I spared you.
I'm not sure why I have been so down, mostly family stuff I think; also people leaving, the happenings of last night, and the nervousness leading up to it (when really I shouldn't have cared at all, well I should have cared but not like I did). Also, I leave thursday, and if you know my fears you understand why leaving makes me so sad.
I am freaked out about tomorrow, but after tomorrow my life should be smooth, other than classes starting and move in I don't really have much to worry about.
My wrist has been hurting a lot lately and I am kind of just hoping that will fix itself.
I am going to see Erica tonight, it is her last show of the summer and it will be amazing I'm sure.
I am so lucky to have spent my summer with such amazing people. Seriously all of you, even work wasn't so bad because of the great people.
I am pretty much packed, which is good because I just get to spend the rest of the week with my mum, and kadoo, and mol, and anyone else willing to make time for me.
Also, I am going to Chicago in October, and I am very excited because a) it's fucking chicago and b) it's my first ever train ride.
So mostly life is perfect.
Love. (libraries, oceans, galaxies of it).

I really like bikes with baskets.
And grown-ups who wear mittens.
Also, the word grown-ups.
and procrastinating.



you take my breath away.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMI!!!!!

Some days I am so sure that I have the best mum in the world. Today we spent a lot of money on Ani stuff and she went through my desk and smiled at the things she found there; especially at the awesome mixed cd's and pictures I have acquired lately. No questions just smiles. Mollo comes home today, I can't wait, I had a very lonely week with out her.
So yeah I'm packing, I kind of hate packing. Tonight I am babysitting, money will be good. Tomorrow should be great. I am getting my hair cut tuesday...and I don't know what to do, so if you have ideas that would be awesome, ideas that also have pictures would be even better.
Anyways I'd like to go to Mongolian bbq before school and other things(by which I mean wedding crashers). Let me know if you'd like to come.
Also Lora we can split those ipod things, I will give you money or the other way around. dibs on the green one :).
Last night was WONDERFUL...ALL of yesterday was wonderful. I have the best people in my life. And I really like surprising people.
I want solid food, if I have to eat smoothies for another day I am going to scream.
Have a great day!
love. lots of it.

p.s. I am writing again, and I'm thankful that my life has cleared up enough to allow me to think again, I am enjoying my much needed vacation from drama.

So I survived two surgeries. And I kick ass at the card game war. And lately I miss everyone, but I really enjoy being alone. And lately my writing has kept me sane. And lately I have realized how important certain people are to me. And for once I am okay with that. And for once I am letting myself need people around, this could be good or bad... at least it's new.
Anyways this was a quick update to let everyone know that I am alive and I miss y'all. And that we should hang out and play war.
This is also to let you know that I leave on the 25th and this year I plan to make an actual effort at staying in touch with people. That's all I think.
Well and this:
Thank you for being the lovable/amazing/adorable/wonderful/breath-taking person that you are. :)!
Love. lots of it.
Sometimes life's okay.

Surgery in an hour, talk to y'all soon.

bookstore excited.
love.

My life has been pretty amazing lately. I have surgery wednesday, and my wrist is healing sort of although I hit is today and the stitches bled. Anyways, I have also been reading some great books thanks to some great ladies.

Lora I hope you write down the quotes from tonight because I have forgotten them.

In other news, you're wonderful.
love. lots of it.

p.s. I am looking forward to Sunday.

I think we should just leave things as they are.

I wish you all the best.

I got my laptop, and it's pretty great. Also today(and last night) was the best day EVER. That's right I said it, ever.

I have a new sn comment if you want it :)!!

love.

Today was a great day, banana pancakes with the coolest girl in the world. A special thanks to my visitors Erica, Lora and Jas for the much needed distraction from the pain. I love you.

Welcome home Annie!

p.s. I adore the question game, and this rainy day picnic cd. At times you are too wonderful for words :)!!!
love.
