I am feeling nostalgic so here is a list of a few of my favorite college memories:

• Freshman year spent in Collins 5 North and my wonderful roomie, Carey
• Kickboxing class freshman year and all those damn squats we had to do
• "I mean you're pretty"
• Going to Wild Country so much that they knew us by name
• TKE keg parties freshman year when it was still kind of a novelty to be drunk
• Sheena and my trip to San Marcos to visit Krista
• My first semester in ADPi
• Arlington Farms parties sophmore years
• 151-G and the laundry detergerent paint job
• Black Lights
• Bringing home cheesecake after ADPi functions
• Making cookies with a few key ingredience missing
• Cool whip
• Blowing off doing my homework to hang out in 151-G
• Late night trips to Whataburger
• All those weird movies Sam has made me watch
• Race days with Robbie
• Going to endless meeting that I never wanted to go to
• Driving through Cameron Park late at night
• Recruitment
• The Unit in its glory days
• And sooooooooo many more things I cant list them all. I cant believe I have a month left of my college times. That is crazy!! But it has been amazing, Thank you all!

Ok I am going to go cry now, Im sad!

So I have decided that I like making lists, therefore my blogger might become a series of lists about randomness until I am out of my list phase. Thus, a new topic.

The best part of Fall Parties (in no particular order)

1. Three butt ass naked boys that ran down the hallway right when a party was getting out. YAY for streakers!!!
2. The look on the president of Chi Omega's face as the boys ran by
3. The old old old advisor for Chi-O that was really disappointed that she missed the nakedness
4. Standing outside the Chi-O door timing their parties while desperately trying to make faces at my ADPi sisters as they were leading girls out of our party
5. Hanging out with Mel, Shannon, Bekah, and Morgan in the hallway while else was smiling and chatting it up in the room. Rho Chi=best job ever!
6. The excitement that everyone had when they saw me when I snuck in the ADPi room during lunch
7. The big hug Tessica gave me when she saw me both when I snuck in and when I came in when it was all over
8. Breaking the silly no contact rules for us panhell peeps
9. The PNMs that were dancing to our songs as they were leaving our room
10. The fact that ADPi s from all over the state came to help and show their support for Zeta Chi
11. Getting to see Alison and Kelsi again since I haven't seen them in like forever
12. Having a ride in the morning so that I didnt have to attempt to park (Thanks Robbie!)
13. The best part about Fall parties is that they are OVER!!

So i feel like I should post something just to keep this stupid journal going. But honestly my life is pretty lame right now, so why should I bore you guys with all my lameness. Plus those people that actually read this already know whats going on in my life. But let me fill you in on a few things. Benjamin came over tonight to fix mine and my roomies computers, but that is after they kidnapped him and made him come over. Good job girls! He was able to get pretty much everything squared away except that my wireless card kicks everyone off the internet so I am going back to the old school and using an ethernet cord. So those of you who were at the apartment way back when, the duct tape down the hall is back. It is so ghetto, but my roommate Janae says that we just need to name the cord and then it will be cool. I should not be complaining internet with a cord is better than none at all. Plus it is super fast now that I am not stealing the wireless network from our neighbors. I guess thats all I have to say, so I will leave with the statement: Benjamin is my computer genius hero!!

i want to be loved... i want someone to take me by the hand and lead me when i can't see where i'm going... i want someone to cuddle with me when it's cold outside.. i want someone to think of me before they go to sleep each night... i want someone i can call when i get home just to tell them about my day... i want someone to make me smile-to make me laugh... i want someone to tell me everything will be alright when i'm stressed out... i want someone to know me-to know all of my idiosyncrasies: how i like my cheeseburgers, where things go in my room, and how i like my coffee... i want someone to look at me with his gorgeous eyes and make all my insecurities melt away... i want someone to leave me random notes telling me how much he loves me... i want someone to buy presents for-someone to spoil... i want someone to make me feel weak in the knees; i want him to give me butterflies... i want someone to challenge my beliefs; i want him to make me realize that i'm not always right... i want someone to play with my hair until i fall asleep in his arms... i want someone to go to football games with and kiss when we get a touchdown... i want someone to realize my inner beauty... i want someone to protect me when i'm scared, to love me when i'm me, and to lend me his jacket when i'm cold... i want someone to tell me i'm beautiful, and i want him to mean it... i want someone to understand me... i want someone to challenge me intellectually... i want someone to know everything about me; i want him to share everything about him with me... i want someone to love, and i want him to love me...

(I found this on a friend's journal, so I stole it. And she didnt write it and I dont know who did, but I think it is fabulous)

I think to be truly happy with someone, all these things must be present. Its like it is a reciepe for a happy relationship, if one of these things is missing then it wont be good.

Shoes, I like shoes. I spent the morning shoe shopping with Sheena and it was good times. I really like shoes and I really like buying shoes. But this morning I did not buy anything. I am so very proud of myself. I saw a whole bunch of stuff that I wanted, but I resisted. Well thats all I had to say, I love shoes!!

Ok I have a funny story... Well atleast I think it is funny. So its Thursday night Robbie, myself, and my roomie Janae are just chilling at my house, and all of the sudden out of the kitchen appears a big cricket. I of course am freaking out, me and bugs not friends, but my roommate the hero quickly steps in and kills our friend the cricket with Robbie's shoe. However when she crushes the nasty little creature it makes the worst skin crawling sound. I have never heard a sound like that at the death of a bug. Janae with that sound made the most horrible face and I thought maybe she was going to throw up on our kitchen floor. It was seriously funny watching this scene, Robbie and I were cracking up. Janae cleaned up the mess and handed Robbie his shoe back, and I thought that would be the end of the story. But no, there was a cricket leg stuck on the shoe that would come into play later in the night. I will not bore you anymore with my story but lets just say the night ended with people getting frebreezed to rid them of cricket juice and me and my roommates standing on top of the couch.

Oh and then I found five dollars!!

Ummm....yeah....so this blogger thing....I don't know why I am having such a hard time figuring out what to write in this thing. I am a busy girl, I should have lots of things to say. But nope I don't. So lets see, what can I say... Lets talk about graduation. It is getting dangerously close, and I am scared out of my mind. I am trying to be calm and trust that it will all work out, but that is really hard to do considering my life plans are all in disarray. I believe with all my heart that God has a plan for me so I know that everything is going to work out, but I am just having a hard patiently waiting for this plan to be revealed. I guess that's why they say that patience is a virtue.

I have been sitting in front of this blank blog screen for a while now, and I got nothing to say. I am trying to be diligent about my posting, but I am finding it hard to find material. So I am going to not ramble anymore and end this. Hopefully I will think of something better to say for the next time. Until then...

Some lyrics from my new favorite song:

Break Away by Kelly Clarkson

I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly,
I'll do what it takes till I touch the sky,
And I'll make a wish, take a chance,
Make a change, and break away.
Out of the darkness and into the sun,
But I won't forget all the ones that I love.
I'll take a risk, take a chance,
Make a change, and break away.

I like it when you just stumble across a song that really speaks to you. I wish that I had a talent for music. Music can really impact peoples lives and that amazes me.

So as stated earlier yesterday was my first day of class for the new semester. It went well, I don't think my classes are going to be too hellish but none of them are going to be super fun. I have 2 BIC classes and that is definitely interesting. We had a large group class for the first time in like forever and ever. I remember why I chose my friends carefully. People in the BIC are weird and ignorant, but they think they are super super smart. Really they just suck! Why on earth would you, in a class of over 100. Start talking very disrespectful about white trash because you spent a summer in North Carolina. I don't understand how someone would think that is ok. AHHHHHHHHHHHHH, dumb!! Alright I'm over it now. (Sorry Faith if you are reading this, but your roommates comments were a little out of line.) So that was my reflection on the first day, until next time......

Ok I know, you don't have to tell me. I know that I haven't posted anything in a really long time. I was at home for the week, and I didn't feel like blogging from there. I don't have anything really to day right now either. Today was the first day of the fall semester and I didn't have class, that was super weird. Tomorrow I have a full load of classes. I am taking BIC capstone, international journalism, politics and communication, and BIC world cultures v. It should be super fun! I am so excited that tomorrow starts my last semester of college!! YEAH ME!

Yipeeeeeee NO MORE SUMMER SCHOOL!!

So it is like noon and I am just laying in my bed and relaxing, and then suddenly my phone rings. And it was my Krista! I figure that she is just calling to say hey and see what is going on, I was also still assuming she was still in Washington. But NO she was 20 miles outside of Waco! So I got meet her and her mom for lunch. I was super excited, I havent seen Krista in like nine hundred million years. So that just made my day!!

Burrrr.....its freezing in the SUB. Why am I in the SUB? Well it seems as though my history prof's wife was in a car accident so he cancelled class. He said she was not hurt but he seemed pretty upset about it. So instead of using this extra hour and a half to study I have spent the time playing on the internet. I got to talk to my Unit; she is in Houston for reals now and is about to start law school. I cant believe my Unit is all grown up. I am super proud of you Laura!!! It is the final days of class for summer II and I am excited. I am looking forward to the next couple of weeks I get to spend time at home. Plus it will be back to school shopping time and maybe my mommy and daddy will buy me a present. I like presents!! Also my brother will be in town for part of the time I am home. So that should be cool, it is always nice when we get to spend time together as a whole family. I feel that we are rarely all in the same state, much less the same city. So that should be good times. Well it is 11 and I better get to Criminology so I can take my final, YAY!! 1 down, 2 more to go.

I just want this week to be over....Correct that I just want summer school to be over....Oh wait correct that again I just want school to be over. I think I need a few days of having absolutely nothing to do. I just want to be able to sit and do nothing without a list of things I need to be doing in the back of my head. Speaking of my head, it hurts. I think it hurts because it has been too many hours since I have had any caffeine. This morning I woke up in the worst mood, nothing was going right and I basically hated life. So after my health test I had like an hour to spare before history, and all I wanted was to go to the SUB and get a Dr. Pepper. I really needed some caffeine. I get my cup and ice and I press my cup to the Dr. Pepper thingie, but much to my dismay only soda water comes out. So I go to the next one and nothing but the same there. I finally come to the conclusion that none of the stupid soda machines are working. I have to settle for water, which was not what I wanted at all. I was so freaking pissed, that only added to my awful mood I was already in. Ugg it makes me mad just thinking about it. STUPID BAYLOR!!

I have just returned from good ole Humble. I love going home, it is the best feeling ever. My parents are always so glad to see me. That is so nice to feel so loved. On this trip back to Waco I brought back with me my puppy. Jamie is such a popular dog that she has to spend time at my parents house so that she can please her public there. And of course everyone loves her here. Sometimes I think people like Jamie more than they like me. So anyways, I don't have anything else to say and I have to study for my history test now. Until next time...

When You Love Someone
Bryan Adams 
When you love someone you'll do anything
You'll do all the crazy things That you can't explain
You'll shoot the moon put out the sun
When you love someone
You'll deny the truth believe a lie
There'll be times That you'll believe you can really fly
But your lonely nights have just begun
When you love someone
When you love someone
 You'll feel it deep inside
And nothin' else can ever change your mind
When you want someone 
When you need someone
When you love someone
When you love someone you'll sacrifice
You'd give it everything you got 
And you won't think twice
You'd risk it all No matter what may come
When you love someone
