Today I woke up and I just feel alive. I don't want to do chemistry, but I am happy for the challenge.

My stomach is rolling on itself because of the juice and coffee inside it. Citrus plus caffiene. . . bad choice.

Something is missing today.

I just want to recline with Ian, Dominic, my Dad, etc. But instead I pull on a hoody and head to class.

To get you to thrive.

Bringing Me Up- Tearing Me down

I feel that my friends bring out the worst in me, yet they also bring out the best. I hate the person I am around them sometimes, yet I also love it. It is always extremes.

I just got a new bra in the mail from Victoria's secret. My abs are burning from yesterday.

I am pretty much just feeling out of it a little bit.

Anyway, I gtg.

Since My Best-friend is Also Coming Here Soon--How I felt When I first Visited Creighton in October 2004

I landed, got off the plane, and stepped into an entirely different world inside that heated terminal. Outside, I could see green such that I had never seen before outside of my crayon box. The air clung to me, a warm blanket I could not take off. I wanted to cry. I imagine this must have been how I felt leaving the womb. I came from a warm safe place protected and loved by family into a world that could cover me with snow, chill me to the bone, strike fear or pain into me unlike I had ever known.

Yet, I wanted to open my eyes wide, take in everything, feel it through my bare hands and my yearning tasteless tongue. I knew nothing of this world and instantly wanted it to be like my old one. I wanted long term relationships, I wanted places that meant something to me, I wanted to feel at home.

I have settled for unknown roads, and people I do not know but who are so friendly that they seem to know me. They speak a different language here, English, and I am nearly fluent now. Everything is different, and I cannot say it was all for good, but some was, and that's good too.
