Congradulations Class of '06!!!

When there's no one else in the world you'd rather be with-
A simple hello is the greatest sound in the world and one kiss is never plain, its the most extraordinary thing ever experienced. A slight touch on your arm sends tingles through your body and you can't help but anticipate the next one. You can't concentrate- all thoughts drift to that special someone. There's never any "I guess I'm in love" because from that first moment you met, a relationship bloomed, a spark flew and chemistry combined- to the sweet scent that can only be unmistakable love.

                          -H.

I close my eyes
To see you again
My hand in yours
A spanning smile
Precious times
Your lingering kiss
The way I floated
One fatal wind
Could blow me away
Difficultly leaving
Going home without you
A long night of dreams
I close my eyes
Remembering

Life picks you up
Takes you on a joyride
You think "It can't get any better than this"
Then life decides to chew you up
And spit you out...
Then you lay on the payment
Wondering, "why the hell does life do this to ya"

The ups and downs of life's rollercoaster.

Around the corner 
               of my heart
               Past the tower
                            of hope
       Beyond the locked door
                             Inside a box
                               lies my secret.

Today was probably one of the worst days of my life...
Jessica Crawford,
       I LOVE YOU, MY FRESHMAN!!
          I'll miss you!

   

Lot 'a Leaving Left To Do
 by: Dierks Bentley

These old boots still got a lot of ground
they ain’t covered yet
There’s at least another million miles
under these old bus treads
So if you think I’m gonnna settle down
I‘ve got news for you
I still got a lot of leavin’ left to do

And as long as there’s a song
Left in this old guitar
This life I’m bound to lead
Ain’t for the faint of heart
So you won’t fall for me
if you know what’s good for you
‘cause I still got a lot of leavin’ left to do

I guess the Lord made me hard to handle
So lovin’ me might be a long shot gamble
So before you go and turn me on
Be sure that you can turn me loose
‘cause I still got a lot of leavin’ left to do

Girl, you look like you might be an angel
So I won’t lie
I could love you like the devil
if you wanted me to tonight
And we could talk about forever for a day or two
But I still got a lot of leavin’ left to do

I guess the Lord made me hard to handle
So lovin’ me might be a long shot gamble
So before you go and turn me on
Be sure that you can turn me loose
‘cause I still got a lot of leavin’ left to do

Yeah, I still got a leavin’ left to do

Ha. Yes. That's me.

Military Ball Saturday. So much fun. I almost cried... my name got screamed to come up at the end during the graduation song...even when I quit ROTC....love love love...

Then I went picture crazy. Ha. I love self timer...

Pretty sure I didn't get the part. Darn nerves, usually they help me, not this time.... *sad*

I close my eyes
To see you again
My hand in yours
A spanning smile
Precious times
Your lingering kiss
The way I floated
One fatal wind
Could blow me away
Difficultly leaving
Going home without you
A long night of dreams
I close my eyes
Remembering

yeah yeah I can't write, you dont have to tell me.
You and me.

Call me something unheard of-
Call me Beautiful
Take me by the hand
And dance in the rain
Give me little things
That show me how much you care
Don't just kiss me
But touch my soul...

I put ice in my milk
I prefer fountain Dr. Pepper-
But I can’t watch it come out of the fountain
I have to clean my room before I go to bed
I make my bed before I lie down.
I hate ironing
Frank Sinatra is my hero
I like to wear my retainers
Rain makes me sleepy
I wanted to be a tornado chaser
I love when the sky is so stormy dark its almost black
I like to play “Word Association”
Chinese Food. Enough said.
I once at an entire medium pizza by myself
I like to swing my moods… keeping everyone on their toes
I like pictures
Harry Potter is my future husband
I’m not as nerdy as I sound… well, sorta
Teen dramas are my favorite- Wildfire, Gilmore Girls, One Tree Hill
I overanalyze everything- eventually driving myself insane
My friends hold the key to my sanity.
I am ALWAYS online- doesn’t mean I’m here.
I’m an actress- entitled to be a little overdramatic.
I like ALL music, country included.
*Cue Angelic Music* Dashboard Confessional
I own 24 pairs of shoes.
I talk too much...

I figured I would update. For those who read my xanga- this is the same entry.

Tuesday I got a call from the Navy Reserves and they told me if I join, it will most likely push my NROTC scholarship through. Friday I went to Nashville and did my physical, took the ASVAB, etc. I passed with flying colors, I just have to get medical clearance, and I'll probably swear in Monday or Tuesday. I'm really counting on the scholarship, I'm ready to go into the service, but I'd rather go in after college, I know God will take care of me. I know I'm doing the right thing.

My parents called my hotel friday, but I never did call them back. They opened my mail and I got a 32,000 scholarship (over 4 years) from Marquette. So that is definately where I'm going. Things are so stressful, yet so perfect at the same time. I love my life, I couldn't ask God for more.

"Life isn't about waiting for the Storm to pass, but learning to dance in the rain."

Worse than the total agony of being in love??

I suppose I don't know what love is like-

Blissful and sweet

or

Full of suffering and pain

Which ever the case-
love is love and who can live a meaningful life without it?

I AM OFFICALLY A MARQUETTE ACCEPTANT AS OF FRIDAY THE 13th OF JANUARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YAY! GO HEATHER!!!

1 of 1800 accepted students

1800 of 52,000 accepted.

WHOOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now which college to choose?

now how to manipulate the Navy...

This whole college thing is about to stress me out

I'm thinking of settling for Madison

Not that Madison is technically settling... It was my 2nd Choice

But Marquette is just not fast enough

Frankly, I'm impatience and not good with unpredicablity.

The Navy is going to give me a nervous breakdown

Just tell me I've gotten into Marquette with a 4 year full scholarship
from the Navy and I'll be spiffy. I'd appreciate it

Sometimes I feel on top of the world

And sometimes I feel like a insignificant.

Sometimes I like to be alone

And sometimes I feel lonely/isolated

Sometimes I feel pretty

And days when I just don't

Sometimes I wish I was the "happy-go-lucky" girl

And sometimes I'm glad for my many moods

but always, I'm just me.

Ah yes, we have hit the year of 2006. I'd recap on the previous year but alas, my resolution is to leave the past in the past.
                 
Not to mention-
stop taking my friends for granted,
accept the upcoming changes in our lives, 
over all just accepting life as it is
and not wishing for something bigger and better-
         because everything will work out better if I just let God do
         his thing and I quit messing with it.

Yes. MERRY NEW YEAR GUYS!

Nobody likes me
Everyone hates me
I think I'll just go 
        read a book...

Purer than snow
Whiter than a dove
It fades like the morning sun
Innocence lost.

            - Me

I think I've finally realize what this year is about...

      Its not about grades
      Its not about clubs
      Its not about college
      Its not about scholarships

Its about determination, its about experiences, its about perseverance,  
              Its about friends. 
         
  

HARRY POTTER this weekend!! I can't WAIT.. On saturday... after ROCKY HORROR!!! Heck yes. Busy weekend.

I think there comes a time in everyone's life when they are just content. I am content. I love my friends, my life is going somewhat smoothly, and I couldn't really ask for more.....

And then you mess it up....

I messed it up

Friday night was SO much FREAKIN FUN! The Play went great, and I hung out with Emily.

Saturday was GREAT! Hung out with Emily, had a blast doing random and pointless things.... *here comes the point where I mess it up*

The Cast party... I am just not a "party" person... large groups sincerely scare me... and I got pissed off for some odd reason and took it out on Emily. Poor thing- even though what I said was completely true, I said it completely wrong and without a cool head.   UGH UGH UGH... then there was that awkward- I know your mad but we are both going to pretend everything is OK!!

Yikes.

I love her, she's my best friend. I hope she knows that. And we both need to work on our ISSUES/PROBLEMS together.
