Wake up in the mornin' feelin' like - im irritated...

good morning. and yes, unfortunately enough, i have woken to a bad mood setting on..... let one person say the wrong thing to me and that will ruin my day for sure.... i think it's because i slept in so late today.... i rarely go past 8 15 ... but today i didn't wake up til 9 30.............that should do it. i have a stats test tomorrow... this should be fun and easy since he gave us all the equations we need! :D all i need to do is check for what table matches to which equation set... sooooo that s all. today thus far has been most boring. P.S. did you see someone and get annoyed just by looking at them? if yes. say a prayer for them today- and for yourself. if no. then you are lying and need to reexamine yourself! haha :) <3 til later................................

I have come to a fork in the road-

I have, in fact, come to a fork in the road. It comes between these two and very distinct choices: Complain and Stress about every thing encompassing school and grades and grad school- or straightening up and starting to pray. I chose the right side- i have straightened up and started praying for my own future. Today. Right now. I am finally, really starting to take prayer seriously in regards to giving my future to God. From now on, I will honestly do my best to take everything to prayer. I certainly cannot make all these decisions by myself- I need God. This little "lull" of just filling up pew space is over. Rosaries-and Plenary Indulgences, <3

" I know what it is you saw..." ~ Galadriel, LOTR

So today while i was looking at everyone's Engagement statuses on facebook... i thought of what my life would be in that position: I'd be going to a private wedding store for my dress, shoes, and bag. I will have my Grammie embroider the dress and bead it. Just like she made my communion dress. :) My fiance` and i will be looking at wedding invitations- i would love to have something that is sparkly paper with a little ribbon on it..... I want cloth to cover my tables, and chair covers for everyone.... I also want to get personalized M &M candies in all colors and have a station with little bags for people to get their fave colors! with a little bottle of champagne at everyone's (21 and up) seat! For my song to dance to with my new husband it would be between : Beauty and the Beast <3 Hero- Mariah Carey Hero- Enrique Iglesias I Melt- Rascal Flatts! For the Father-Daughter Dance: BUTTERFLY KISSES! And other Must haves areeee: Low- Flo Rida! Tik Tok- Ke$ha Can you feel the love tonight- Elton John I Love Rock and Roll or Cherry Bomb- Joan Jett and the Runaways Livin on a Prayer- MOST DEF! EveryBody Dance Now- Thriller!! If I ain't got you- Alisha Keys! Evacuate the Dance Floor- Cascadaaa Best Dam* Thing-Avril Don't Stop the Music- Rihanna/Pon-da-Replay Telephone, Pokerface, Just Dance- Lady Gaga Party in the USA- Miley Cirus Oh It's Magic- Selena Gomez Down-Jay Sean You belong with Me- Taylor Swift All the Man that I need- Whitney Houston-- TO BE CONTINUED! Champagne and Curlers, <3

Faith Like a Mustard Seed-

My faith is about the size of a mustard seed right now. Looking at graduate schools, trying to decide exactly what i want to do in life.... "When I left Queen's my future seemed to stretch out before me like a straight road. I thought I could see along it for many a milestone. Now there is a bend in it. I don't know what lies around the bend, but I'm going to believe that the best does. It has a fascination of its own, that bend, Marilla." That is about how i feel right now..... soo many options are open to me, yet i feel weighted down by the numerous stops i have to make to get to where i want to be- keeping in mind this is time sensitive. Pepper with my Salt, <3

I'm just as decisive as Charlie Brown.

Hello- I suppose it should be goodnight, actually. I'm not sure why i choose to write out this as if im talking to someone... i blocked these so i could use it as a personal diary; it is so much nicer than rambling to people... it also helps get thoughts straightened out before you talk lol In the course of this week, I have been politely told that: 1) I am intimidating to guys because I am outgoing. 2) That I have too high of standards. 3) That I could have a boyfriend if I really wanted to. Well, i am here to let you all know three things which I am not going to tell you politely: 1) If you are intimidated by me, there's the door. 2) If my standards are too high, yours must be too low- or you are desperate. 3) You are completely right. I could have a boyfriend if I wanted to. But I am not the flirt and flight- I am looking for the complete package. I will make a short disclaimer about myself: "Hi! and thank you for wanting to date me. I appreciate your flirtatious attitude and your pretending to care anything about me, but i need to warn you of somethings. I do not offer sex for free or payment-you need to marry me for that. My lips are untouched- you need to marry me for that too. No you are not allowed to take naps with me- i will send my dog after you if you try. No, I have not had thousands of boyfriends- but being mine is a rigorous process and contest. Many will enter, Few will attempt, one will win. Thanks for playing the Dating game and good luck!" I am well aware that the idea of being chaste is a hard enough pill to swallow for most guys... i can admit it is difficult for me sometimes too. HOWEVER .........quite frankly, i dont care :) Not many guys have gotten to the point of asking me out, because once they find out alittle more about me and what i dont do- they run. i laugh :) It definitely makes the weeding out process easier.... i mean, that eliminates most of the male population when you start talking about no naps- but no kissing on the lips? well, that is how i know the man needs an award just for trying :) hahaha ok im done . enough of me for now! heart shaped candies <3

The Humor of a Dating Website always gets me!

Yes, i have received NUMEROUS emails for "Black Singles. com - Meet hot singles in your area today!" and "Match1- Find the Love of your Life" and "All Singles- Join today and meet others like your self " -----------omg it gets soo old! I really think going to a different school would have helped. Sure, i have learned tolerance from being here.... but there is still something that is missing.... You have the extremes- Lovers and Haters- it's almost a highschool setting.... Black People usually sit and eat together- the almost-monks-but-not-yet guys eat together- the runners eat together- the little cliques of people only eat with "their" people- etc .etc. But i think i should have transferred when I had the chance. I really do. Or maybe instead of doing something dumb with my summers, i should have gone to Catholic Family Land or something... where people actually meet other people of the same faith, or maybe the problem is me.... i really couldn't say for sure. Sitting and looking back- i guess you could say that through highschool i never really had any friends.... i had acquaintances....but that is different and when girls are clique-y, then i guess that's what you get! lol! what can i say? i used to think it was because i wasn't very pretty and that's why i wasn't ever one of the popular ones... now, looking at where they are.... regardless of myself.... im so SO glad im not them! i was kind of shy, kind of outgoing.... but i've learned to be more outgoing- laughing off my shyness or finding commonalities to chat about... i always knew what i wanted, i go to school- those things stay the same because that is what i know i should want, but in the end i know. i know what i should want is, in fact, what i do want. and i think that does it for now. happy hopes and vera wang- <3

and.. these are the foods to watch out for...

Oh 4-H... How I HATE thee!

I hate my 4-H club. The club i was particularly involved in was very aristocratic....a few family members were leaders. And, conveniently enough, their daughter was a critical, fair weather friend/fellow rider. I swear she was only your friend if you were doing worse than her in something. lol! But this time, although i am above the age of 4-H, i am not too old to state my opinion. This so happened to be in my Agricultural Club. One leader in particular had obviously little to no sympathy when it came to us not having our project books turned in on time. When your baby brother is in the hospital during fair week for seizures, and you Grandfather is dying of cancer, and your child is moving into college...soooo sorry. But 4-H was the last thing on my family's mind. Soo they wanted my siblings to write a paragraph about my brother's illness. Well, since they each come from the same household, wouldn't the story be the same? Duh. Besides, what do they want it to say? " To Whom this is None of Your Business, My Baby Brother, at 6 months old, was very sick with seizures, and taken on emergency to Children's. He would stop making contact, and cry. He also had to be on special meds from Canada in hopes that this would make him better. It was a very stressful time for my family, with my Grandfather being on his deathbed with cancer in his brain for the last 3 months. Sorry we didn't make it to the fair, or turn in the same books we have had to fill in the blanks to for 6 years now... but we had some other TRIVIAL events going on in our family that SEEMED more important than your stuffy, clique-y , and utterly stupid club. Most Respectfully, Me." yeahhh they wouldn't want to see me back. I have went from a fairly "whatever" person- to one who speaks up when something isn't right. And this, dear readers, wasn't right in my eyes. until later, me
