there are two this week - they are from the same author - Miss Bridget Adkins (one of my DC girls!)

guys are like port-a-potties
all the good ones are taken and the rest are full of crap

in the end I know it's all gonna be ok.
..cuz i read the last page of the Bible... and God wins!

What is your biggest fear?

going home for the weekend! yay!

so in my wonderful world civ class today we were discussing
The Defenestration of Prague

so i am sure you are sitting here reading this going "and what the heck does it mean to defenstrate someone?" as i was in claas
actually i was thinking
"bludgeon is soooo much better"

well- now i have a new fave word
defenestrate - to throw someone out a window

i know - amazing!

yes i also know this picture has nothing to do with this blog but it was fun

You Have a Choleric Temperament

You are a person of great enthusiasm - easily excited by many things.
Unsatisfied by the ordinary, you are reaching for an epic, extraordinary life.
You want the best. The best life. The best love. The best reputation.

You posses a sharp and keen intellect. Your mind is your primary weapon.
Strong willed, nothing can keep you down. Your energy can break down any wall.
You're an instantly passionate person - and this passion gives you an intoxicating power over others.

At your worst, you are a narcissist. Full of yourself and even proud of your faults.
Stubborn and opinionated, you know what you think is right. End of discussion.
A bit of a misanthrope, you often see others as weak, ignorant, and inferior.

this is the sullivan party with my wonderful brian!
he's such a sweetie!

toshia played with  my hair at the sullivan party!

it made me very HAPPY!
so i got to see lots of old friends - make new ones

and send an interesting one far far away to the beautiful island
of Hawaii to see what God has for him there

i went to visit my grandmother in east tn and met some new cousins that i didn't know exsited (that happens all the time in my family)
this picture is my new-found cousin Rachael, her mom, my grandmother, me and, mom

one of the parts of visiting grandma is seeing how fat the dog has gotten
you never think it can get fatter- but it does
this is my wonderful little cousin micah- i call it
the attack of the micah

this is
attacking the micah
(he's finally realized that girls have cooties and that i am a girl)

i did lots of fun shopping

i spent time in the laundromat washing the amazingly drirty dorm rugs that traveled home with me

i played some pool in the basement

got some love off my bro and my wonderful family

and of course got to spend time at my home church!
k - so that is most of my break through pictures (at least for now!)
hope your break was as wonderful as mine!

The Keys to Your Heart

You are attracted to those who are unbridled, untrammeled, and free.

In love, you feel the most alive when things are straight-forward, and you're told that you're loved.

You'd like to your lover to think you are optimistic and happy.

You would be forced to break up with someone who was emotional, moody, and difficult to please.

Your ideal relationship is open. Both of you can talk about everything... no secrets.

Your risk of cheating is 100%. You are not suited for a monogamous relationship.

You think of marriage as something precious. You'll treasure marriage and treat it as sacred.

In this moment, you think of love as something you don't need. You just feel like flirting around and playing right now.

TELL ME

Tell me I'm clever,
Tell me I'm kind,
Tell me I'm talented,
Tell me I'm cute,
Tell me I'm sensitive,
Graceful and wise,
Tell me I'm perfect--
But tell me the truth.

by Shel Silverstein

Single's Awareness Day is now less than a month away and as an intelligent happily single person I feel that it is my duty to alert you of such.

i feel that this image accurately represents my feelings and the situation

notice that this fine fellow has his tongue sticking out! yes i know- perfect!

- fellow singles -
we must band together

who's with me?

- wonderful but annoying couple people -
stop being icky and cute in public
no one but you thinks it's cute

te he he

so i took resumes to lawyers today! i was sooooooooo nervous. i'm just looking another part-time summer job, but i really want to work for one of the 5 offices i visited today. had i not been talking to chris inbetween offices i would have gone crazy.if all else fails the tractor
dealership will hire me! yes! getting hit on by boys and men in wranglers and levis all summer! lol - well i would have fun i finally played with my camera and all my pictures from break are on my computer! yay! then why aren't they on phusebox you ask? well -
see at home there's only dial-up (i live in the boon-docks!) and SOMEONE (smart techie downstairs) removed aol from my computer and i have no meanss of getting online from home unless i go to bro's again and get on wireless.
and guess what??? IT'S SNOWING!!!!!!! yay i love snow! i mean it won't stick or anything but nonetheless it's snow! I always say that if it'sgonna be cold, it should snow. and if it's not gonna snow then itshouldn't be cold! aren't i brilliant? yes i know. you can stop applauding now.
aw thanks. te he he! and yes i am having fun with this rainbow thing.rainbows are soooo beautiful. none will ever match the awesome rainbows of Hawaii! yes i have been to hawaii. i spent thanksgiving my senior year in high school there competeing in forensics. (hint: not dead people!)
well it is finally the end of a very long day. i'm tired (that's nothing new) i'll probably get to get up in the morning and do farm work (another note about my Christmas - dad got cows! te he he- we have 10 cows and 10 calves- mine is one of the smallest! i'm considering naming hin T-bone)

good night all. sweet dreams!

over at the bro's for dinner ---> this is austin saying hi

hey sometimes she says i am a dork well that may be true but i pretty cool too and if you are wondering why i am talking i am a mime you should see me i am cool - so she is taking the computer back now...

mk so - me again - my car had a wonderful recall on the gear shift and now it is rather stiff to put into park but if that is part of the making sure it doesn't randomly roll backward while in park then i can deal. i have done a good deal of shopping lately...it's FUN! te he he! i was gonna lead music with josh at my bro's church this weekend but i've just been informed that will not be happening *frowns* o well- mom and i have renewed our fascination with the show Gilmore Girls! -austin interjects "that is a cool show and no i am not gay!" yeah - he does that a lot so mom and i watch it every evening and if we miss an episode it comes on the next morning at 9:30. well bo is home! i'm gonna go eat now! maybe more later.

yay!!!!

i'm back! i fought aol and i finally won! or actually my roommate said "why don't you just use internet explorer?" my response was "i can't"

...te he he - i can

so at some point i will respond to the no exit quote - but when i'm back at school or over at my bro's on my laptop and not mom's computer.

interesting notes about my break

*i worked in a law office for no pay unstapling and restapling papers for a week- fun

*i got a digital camera for Christmas - loads of fun - lots of 1/2 retarded pictures

*i got to ride my horse - but i ended up on my "slightly" skittish 4-year old in my father's saddle which was TOO BIG for me - go figure

*i went iceskating!!!!! yay!

*i somehow ended up on a day with out realizing i was on a date til the end of the night... **NEVER AKWARD**

*beth(see above!) and i went with mom to my grandmother's in east tn. it's getting really sad andreally hard. she is convinced that she wants to move to townsend and doesn't understand why she cant

*i almost died beacuse austin's brilliant cousin armor-all'ed his 4-wheeler seat and  he insisted on driving instead of letting me drive

* i can now shift gears on the 4-wheeler without giving passengers whip-lash - te he he

* i'm now looking for a 2nd summer job (i'll be baby-sitting for my cousin 1/2 the time) only problem - i'm gonna have the most retarded work schedule ever and have to find someone who is ok with that

why does aol hate phusebox and kick me offline everytime i get on?!!?!?!
