I know I haven't been good about updating this but it has been hard to do most everything the past few weeks with Buddy sick. I ll try and catch up tonight though.

My first post needs to be about Erica. Hopefully no one is sick about reading about her yet. =)

I was thinking the other day why I loved her so much. I realized today it was because we are not competitive with each other. All of my other girl friendships have been tainted with that and it has caused me to pull away from them. I am competitive when it comes to sports, especially soccer, but in friendships I am not at all. So it drives me crazy when my friends try to compete with me about things I do not see as a competition, nor should anyone.
Erica is the most confident, sexy, beautiful, talented girl I know.
She was like a pro at volleyball. She is one of the best artists I know. No one I know is as cheerful and happy as she is. She has such a confidence about the way she carries herself. She loves herself how she is, and I have never heard her complain about her appearance, which is really rare for a girl.

breakdown in class

The past week has been a really tough week for me emotionally. Buddy has been really sick, and I have been beside myself with worry about her. I don't think I have ever cried this much in a week in my life, but this week it seems to be how I start and end each day. Ann asked me in ballet class how buddy was, I sort of just broke down and cried.

Being in such a fret over a bunny may seem silly, but she is really my little darling and means more to me than anything else. She was what seemed like my only comfort during some hard, and rather dark times last year. If anything happened to her (which is now my worry) I would be devastated.

Blackouts

We keep having blackouts on our block. Of coarse they only happen at night, so they get to be extremely creepy. Me and the roomies were drinking watching sex and the city and the power went out. We were all dissapointed. Erica tells us all in a baby voice "Erica scared". haha She wanted to call the boys she was so scared, it was really pretty cute. Selena took charge and lit all the candles.
I have a ton of candles in my room and I lit them all, it was really nice. I should light them all more often.

happy 52nd anniversary Grandma and Grandpa

Late saturday night ...

Erica and I went grocery shopping saturday night, we brought home all sorts of goodies. We made brownies at 11:30 and busted out the 4 tubs of ice cream. =) Chocolate chocolate chip, dark chocolate mint, dark chocolate, and phish food. YUMM =)

first cup of coffee ever.

I am 21 years old and before today I have never had a whole cup of coffee before. I have had the occasional sip. When I was younger I would try and drink a little coffee and heap sugar into it and drown out the taste with milk. But I enjoyed this entire cup of hazelnut coffee. Will this make me an avid coffee drinker, probably not because I have no idea how to make a cup of coffee.

my MAJOR sweet tooth

I have a major sweet tooth. My weaknesses includes: oreos, homemade chocolate chip cookies, donuts, twizlers, milky way, junior mints, whip cream, hot fudge, any kind of ice cream, brownies, cupcakes, chocolate cake, gummy things, fruit roll ups, dark chocolate, fudge, marshmallows, chocolate chip, and anything with sprinkles.

My sweet tooth seems to come and go. It left me after I gave up sweets one year in junior high for lent, but has recently since college come back with a vengeance that would make even my dad's sweet tooth blush.

After not having sweets all month, I can't control myself. Jeff better hurry and get over here so my oreo friends can stop keeping me company.

I do justify that I usually eat the healthy versions of my goodies.

that time of the year....

When people are starting to get annoyed with their roommates. Sad. It's happening all around me. Fortunately, I am still way to excited about Erica, and still in the very much infatuation stage with her. I love her and she is great.

I am missing Geneva less and less the more I hang with E.

Some days you feel like you could conqure the world....

Well the past few days have felt like that. I have been so on my nut- as Jimmy Stewart would say.
Lots of things have contributed to this feeling, but its awesome, after a week of pure stress its beautiful.
Off to read and eat some oatmeal. =))))))))

I have been acting like a real student...

... recently I have had all this stuff called homework. Usually I just have lots of art projects. What the heck, I have been studying and going over notes everyday. I had to plan out my weekend so I knew what homework and work I was doing when. What the heck.
I like being an art student and playing all day.

These pictures are "two thumbs down to homework" and "I don't like having so much work"
. funny, while taking these pictures I realized how immobile my left thumb is- from my skating accident.
