...I have to leave. I hate the thought, but my mom came to see me the other day. We're leaving the country. We have relatives in Ireland and .. we just have to leave. My father has gone insane. I hate the thought. Leaving everyone. But I have to. I'll be back, I think. Maybe .. someday?
Rosy - You are truly a best friend. I'll email you and keep in touch
Mischa - You're such a beautiful and wonderful girl. I love you. I'll keep in touch always.
Calista - Always full of spunk and life. Good luck to you!
I finished packing and they're coming to pick me up this afternoon. Love you all!

Yawning softly, Ivy dragged herself from the bed-made-into-a-sofa and plopped down in the wooden desk chair. She hadn't been very social for the past few days and wondered just how it was affecting the world. Smirking slightly to herself, she didn't think it was, but found the thought amusing. Checking through her emails, she deleted ones she didn't find important and filed away the ones she wanted. Closing Outlook Express, she pulled up her journal client. Stretching her arms over her head, she yawned again and began typing.
So hi. I'm not dead. I promise. Blame the weather. I hate shitty weather. It makes me miserable and pissy. Its probably also not helping that I'm going through a horrible bout of PMS. I've even taken some of that midol crap to maybe help with my mood. Its helping .. very little. I spent all weekend doing homework, sketching and watching movies. Keeping to myself, keeping away from anyon and everyone. I hope no one took is personally. I didn't mean to hurt any feelings, I just needed some Ivy time. I'm going home for about a week or so to visit my mom. She's back. Her and my dad finally got divorce and she's much happier. She's currently living with my grandmother at the moment until she can get herself back on her feet, but its fine. I'm looking forward to seeing them both. Apparently my dad is in Las Vegas doing God knows what. But she told me not to worry about anything. She took her share from the joint accounts and closed him off from everything. He can't touch a penny of her money, my grandmother's money or my money. Ha! Serves the bastard right.
My room's a mess right now. Its just laundry that needs to be done and also folded and put away. That's how blah I've been feeling. Pretty sad isn't it? In any case, I really don't have much else to drone on about. I think I'll attempt some laundry and make some soup.
Ivy
Rubbing her hand against her eye, she hit the update button and went about her business.

Ruben won! I'm thrilled. I'm glad he won. I threw another party in my room last night before heading to bed.
Last night .. last night was purely magical. Mischa stopped by since I promised her medicine for her sniffling. Medicine borrowing turned into a soft kiss and soft kisses turned into caresses and nipping against skin..and one thing certainly led to the next with Dr. Ivy had given her patient a full body examine. She's feeling better.
Smirking softly, she reached over and picked up a piece of freshly cut cantalope and placed it between her lips, taking a bite from it.
Afterwards, we went out for some Chinese, chit chatted and sadly we had to part ways. I slept well.
She paused again and finished off the piece of fruit, wiping her fingertips against a napkin.
My roommate left. I'm roommateless and really don't mind. I also took the applications down. Sorry. Position has been filled.

Laying upside off the side of her bed, she tossed her magazine onto the floor under the window and sighed. Lounging around in your underware seemed to be perfect for today. It was hot .. miserably hot. Huffing, she sat up and turned herself around, planting her feet firmly on the floor. Standing up, she pulled at the legs of the brief-cut shorts and stretched her arms above her head. Clicking on the stereo, she began bobbing her head slightly and danced her way over to her desk and took a seat.
Hah, a friend of mine called me from back home. Apparently she sent me a package and I got it today. Do you know what the dirty slut sent me? She sent me a vibrator. Yes .. you head me right. I called her almost instantly and asked her what the hell possessed her to send me such a thing. I cracked up at her response. We chatted for a while. She's pregnant. Imagine. I didn't think it would take her long. I told her about my sexual preference and she didn't find it all too surprising. Considering the fact she was the first girl I ever kissed when I was freshman. We chatted some more and I hung up. I made myself some mac and cheese, watched some tv and then put that new gift to some use. Sue me. I was bored.
I think my roommate left school or something. Isn't bothering me though. Its nice being by yourself. Especially last night. I'm glad I had my privacy. Junior year is coming to an end so quickly and I'll be a big bad senior next year.
By the way, I'm taking applications for a girlfriend. They're on my door.
Grinning, she clicked on the update button. Rummaging through a drawer in her desk, she pulled out a manilla folder and some papers. Picking up her tape, she opened her door and taped up the manilla folder and placed the papers within it. Chuckling, she closed her door and went back to dancing around and watching tv.

This is going to sound completely .. clichè. But .. its the truth. After Aidan's birthday party, I called my mom and had a long talk with her about a lot of things. People find it pretty awesome that I'm eighteen (yes .. I'm a junior soon-to-be senior and I'm eighteen already) and I can have such conversations with my mom and not feel .. odd. Basically, I told her that I was feeling attracted towards the female sex. This isn't something new for me. When I was a sophomore, I kissed a girl for the first time and enjoyed it. But I never acted upon it because my father would have beat me into the ground if I had even spoken a word. And then I figured it was just a phase. We all go through a phase like that and then it dies. But last night, after playing spin the bottle ( ha .. such an elementary school game, but its still fun ) with Aidan, Bastian, Seth, Mia and Lixi, the phase I thought had gone away clicked. Of course kissing a guy gives me tingly feelings, but when Lixi kissed me .. it brought out sparks and fireworks. No no, I'm not saying anything about "hooking up" with Lixi. It was just an example
So, back to my original train of thought. I was telling my mom about it and she was rather open with the idea and said whatever made me happy would make her happy. I was relieved and felt ten times better.
She also told me her and my father are indeed splitting up. I only knew it was a matter of time. She's moving back closer to school, but is allowing me to finish up here at Dover. Yet another thing I was most pleased over.
Summer is right around the corner and I can't wait for summer vacation to start. I wonder if openly admitting that I'm bisexual will make people avoid me ... heh. Wouldn't that be amusing.

BLah blah blah blah blah ..
Maybe I'm updating for the sake updating. Who knows. I've kept myself locked away for personal reasons. I did; however, send my mom a mother's day card. She called me on Sunday and started sobbing on the phone telling me how sorry she was that they put me in this school and how she wanted to come back and get me. I told her that it was okay and that I understand the situation. My father is an ass. It was his idea. That's what she told me. His level of respect, at that moment, dropped to a negative 10. Apparently there's a great deal of ... "drama" floating around them and it pisses me off that he's being such a jerk off. I told my mom that she should just get rid of him and come back here. I may have to live at school, but at least I could see her and she would be happy.
She could. She makes the larger amount of money in the household. He could certainly get by living alone. I hate him with an undying passion. I called my grandmother and wished her a happy mother's day and she was very thankful for that. She agreed with me about my father. Funny .. that's his mother. He must really be screwing up if he pissed off his own mother.
I did a painting the other day. A self-portrait. It was me, looking at my reflection in a broken mirror. It fit my current mood. I feel like doodling some more, but I think I'll hook up one of my gaming systems to the little tv we have in our room and play something. My roommate isn't around, so it won't matter.
Oh yeah .. happy birthday to all those who were celebrating for the past few weeks. Much love to you all.
And .. for the record:
Prom is very overrated. Just another night to get waste, have sex and see the popular shit faces get yet another ego boost to add to their aleady huge heads.

So last night was interesting if nothing else. My Rosy girl stopped by and we chatted for a bit. Everyone should love her! Love  faux_rose now! I stopped by Bastian's room to go that party that was being held. He gave me an awesome painting that I'm going to have framed today and hang up in my room. We had a few drinks prior in his room. I was only a bit buzzy. Bastian was .. well .. bashed.
We got dragged off to Dev's party (Happy Belated Birthday by the way!) and didn't stay very long. We went back to my dorm and chilled for a bit. Shared a kiss, though I'm sure it was rather meaningless, and I dozed off.
But I got up on time for my 8:00 a.m. class. Ha! I own you College Algebra. I grabbed a muffin on the way to Figure Drawing II to keep my stomach from getting more churny than it already was. So, here I sit on our break down at the computer lab. Its muggy and yucky outside today. I opted to wear khakis, an olive green polo shirt and my favorite hooded sweatshirt.
I think I'll go roller blading later.
Smooches!

I'm off to Art 3. I'll see Rosy and be happy. I think I'll go around and take pictures of random things about my dorm later. Like the bathroom down the hallway.
I'm going out later because Bastian told me to come to some party. He has a gift for me and I want. I'm going to wear red because its sexy and I'm feeling oh so sexy today.

I'm so frustrated and I don't know why. Perhaps its my inane hermit-like behavior lately. Everyone seems to have a group around here in which I lurk upon the edges of them all. But oddly I never try and break down the barriers that keep "outsiders" away.
I sat in my empty dorm room (still haven't seen my roommate) and just splattered a bunch of murky paint colors onto a small canvas. Maybe I'll submit it to the art gallery here at Dover. Who knows.
I'm so worn from classes. I'm thinking about looking into field hockey. Its a thought ...
Someone show some love for teh Ivyness.

So not much to report on. Went to a party for a bit this weekend held by Lixie. Pretty cool. They were all into the strip twister, I was not. So I left. Ran into Josh Mason at the party as well as Lux. Met up with Mariana as well. Lots of awesome people around here.
At the party, we played I've Never. I'm so boring .. I'm such a dull person. I need a little umph in my life or something. Someone take me out, get me plastered and abuse me? ...God I sound like an idiot.
Ivy
Oh yeah .. This is a result of boredom this weekend. Its .. okay. not the best.

The library did seem the perfect place to study for most students, but not for Ivy. Preferring the sanctuary of her own dorm room, she was absolutely thrilled to find it empty. Tossing her bag against her bed, she opened the window, allowing light to filter through. She had yet to meet her roommate, but for the time being didn't seem to mind. Pulling off the stone washed, denim jacket, she hung it against the back of her desk chair and kicked off the sandals into the corner by her closet. Taking a seat at her desk, she opened the laptop...
So today was awesome! Met some of the students in my art classes. Alot of us have alot in common. They all went to get together and see a movie some time. It should prove to be extremely fun. I worked on some drawings of the skeletal figure. I was pretty happy with them. Hopefully my teacher will be too.
Here's the arm drawing ..
( Arm )
And here's the landscape in watercolors ...
( Landscape )
They're okay. Mediocre if you ask me.
Nothing much to report on. Isn't there a game tonight? Maybe I'll go. I should check out the some extra curricular activities around the school.

So .. apparently the buzz is prom. Is it worth to go I wonder? Bah .. who knows.
First day of classes. It went fairly well. I'm taking some great art and computer classes which makes me happy. My literature class is absolutely wonderful as well. The teacher is super nice and we both love Shakespeare. Ha .. I feel like such a kiss up. I took a buzz by work today to pick up an early pay check since I took off tomorrow and Friday. Oh yeah! I work at Old Navy. Picked up a Frosty on the way home. Mm..they own my soul. I swear they do. I thought about getting some chicken tenders, but decided against it. I didn't want my ramen to think I was having an affair. ;) I love thee ramen noodles.
I still haven't met my roommate. That's a bad thing isn't it?
So here I am .. in my room. Staring at my screen like its going to start dancing to entertain me. Anyone wanna chat? I'm nice! Really!

So I'm all moved in. I haven't met my roommate yet. Don't know if I will any time soon. Not even sure what she's like! In any case, I unpacked and got my area decorated to my liking. Full of various things that bring out the Ivy in the room. And of course it makes it more homey.
I wandered around campus for a bit. I really need to bump into some people. The campus is beautiful and I think I'm going to like it here. I'm looking forward to meeting people and my roommate. I hope we get along well.

I met some people today! I really like it here. I found people who like anime, ramen and Monty Python. Life is good.

So here I am after leaving my previous home due to parents being transferred. No big deal really. They needed to head to Houston, and I needed to stay here. Obviously they didn't want me living alone. Reason one: I'm not "of age" to be living by myself. Reason two: No matter how much I begged, they didn't have enough trust to allow it. So here I am, waiting to hear from Dover.
My name is Ivy Chesterton, a snotty name if you want my true opinion. My freshman and sophomore years were spent attending an all girls private school complete with uniforms. I've always maintained a grade point average of 3.0-3.5 which makes my parents proud. Nothing more, nothing less mind you. However, I was more than thrilled to leave that prison they thought of as school. Nightmare really.
I'm an average girl, nothing special, nothing considerably outstanding. I have a passion for art and love it. I also enjoy tinkering on computers. I'm a geek, I admit it. I like playing video games and I love reading fantasy novels.
I'm not one for math, but try as best as I can. I really enjoy english, literature, art and science classes. They tend to hold my interest more than other subjects.
I work part time and drive a 2000 navy blue saturn. Its my baby.
I think that's good...what do you say journal?
Ivy
