I FINALLY FELL IN LOVE, I'VE BEEN WAITING FOREVER
The semester is coming to an end and I'm starting to really freak out. I'm not showing it, but I'm constantly feeling anxious, and I hate it. I have a research paper, 8-10 pages, due next Wednesday, and I don't have a topic yet. I have a spanish presentation on Tuesday, where I have to talk for 5 minutes with NO notes, and I haven't started that. I have 3 weeks of math homework to catch up on, and a project to do with Nick for Thursday. And I have to do my english portfolio, and I don't even know what that means.
But when all of that is over, it will be winter break, and I will be working at Souper Salad, which is my favorite job ever. Paula, Lorn, and I will go back to The Painted Dish and finish our beautiful pieces of art. I'll do pilates with Lorn everyday and we will get awesome hot bods in one month. Paula will be back for good and I will be so happy because I really really miss her. I'll drink eggnog everyday. It will be Christmas!
Matt is leaving tomorrow, and I won't see him again till Monday. This will be very, very hard for me. It's hard when I can't even spend the night with him. It's not gonna be easy.

WHERE YOU ARE, THAT'S WHERE I WANNA BE
I met Matt's family last night. And he didn't warn me that I was going to. Bastard. It turned out fine though. His 5 year old sister, Amy, who is adorable, took a liking to me. She's the one that seemed the most intersted, anyway. He says they liked me, but his parents didn't really talk to me. That's ok. The banquet had killer mashed potatoes. *Sidenote: I'm starving, and just decided I'm gonna make mashed potatoes out of the potatoes that have been sitting in my fridge since I moved in. This is gonna rock.* But I had fun last night. Amy invited me to go play horses with her in her room sometime, which I look forward to.
I'm considering quitting Keva Juice before winter break. If I work there over break, I will be driving between Alb and Santa so much that I won't even be making any money. Plus, Souper Salad is hiring, which has been my favorite job so far. I could work there during break. But then I'd have to find another job when I get back. Its something to consider.
Drunken Exorcist night with Brian and Matt was fun. The Admiral kicked mine and Brian's asses the next day though. I left Keva Juice after an hour. I didn't want to barf on the customers, and the wheat grass was making that difficult to control. I never threw up, but I did sleep for 3 hours. And then Kat and I went to Becca's dancy thing, which was awesome. She's getting really good. And it turns out I might have been re-introduced to my first friend ever: Reesa (sp?). She was my friend when I was like 3. Her mom and my mom were friends. And she's in dance with Becca. It'd be cool if its her. Can't wait to find out.
Gotta go buy milk for mashed potatoes. Woohoo! I love mashed potatoes!!

A MIRACLE AND A TRAGEDY
All at the same time. Got this from The Peak website.
Peak's Acoustic Christmas with Howie Day and The Calling
Friday December 03
It's a holiday show with Howie Day, The Calling, and local groups Soular and Man Born Blind at Ned's Downtown. Tickets are just $5 at the door and all of that goes to buy gifts for the children of the Giving Tree. This is a 21+ show.
Brian and I are making up a plan of attack as I write this. We will find away around it.

THERE'S A LOG ON THE FIRE, AND IT BURNS LIKE ME FOR YOU
I guess its about time to post again.
I've been working when I'm not at school and at school when I'm not at work. It was a busy week. I almost, ALMOST went to all of my classes. If I hadn't had to work at 3:30 on thursday I would have gone to Astro, but that class ends at 3:15, and there's no way I could make it across the city in 15 minutes.
Thats another reason why I don't like Albuquerque. Its just too big. I think I'd like to stick with Santa Fe-sized cities. Santa Fe is so personal, and I know every little corner of that city. Albuquerque....its ugly to start with. Its just not a pretty place. Except for a couple parts. I drove down Rio Grande Blvd on my way home, it was really pretty. Tons of cute ranches with horses and big big trees. And I have to remember to tell Jacinda I saw a Dietz Road and a Dietz Ranch. Its her last name, and its not too common, so I thought that was cool. And I heard Changes by David Bowie on the radio (radio free Santa Fe, actually) when I was driving through there. I love that song! I just downloaded it! For free! I downloaded Goodbye Yellowbrick Road by Elton John last week. Sweet!
So yeah, I don't like Albuquerque. But actual school is ok. I like the campus. It has a lot of huge trees and I love huge trees.
And of course I've been spending alot of time with Matt. Unfortunately we both are busy alot, with work and school, so we usually only see eachother at night. But weekends are usually better. I only worked till 5 last night so we all got to party together. Kat, Matt, Becca, Dylan, and the like. It was a total sausagefest. Hanging out at Phi Delt rocks. And I love playing DDR now. Weird. And I love hanging out with Matt. Especially when we study. :)

"GOOSE-TER"
It took a couple months and lots of internet time, but I finally read all of Guster's Road Journal: http://www.guster.com/test/tanindexflashsite.html
The drummer, Brian, AKA "Thundergod" writes the current entries, although the first ones, dated all the way back to May of '00, are written by all 3 members. They are hilarious, I recommend them to everyone when they need to waste months of their lives.
Oh, and Guster's music isn't too bad either.
And Irena showed me a groovy website, http://www.thefacebook.com/. Its like myspace, but there are less people, and its only a representation of given universities. UNM is one. I looked up St. Mike's and found several kids. Its a fun site as well. Check it out.

"FUCK YOU! I DON'T GIVE A SHIT ABOUT WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO EAT!"
I am soooooooo glad Nov 2nd is here. I'm so fucking sick of seeing those damn commercials on tv. I took my absentee ballot into Santa Fe on Wednesday, and I wish the tv knew. The commercials would stop. Stupid backstabbing commercials. I wish they really played the "Kerry is Satan" video, that would just be funny. Don't get me wrong, I voted for Kerry. Its just a funny little clip.
I love David Spade. Llama face!
