| So when it feels like i am most alone, its the people you would never expect that really help you feel like life will be ok. For me right now, its Alissa Ampezzan. Its strange how someone i rarely talked to in high school could be the one giving me my sanity. Well, it all started when i decided to take the train home 3 weekends ago, i saw alissa when i was getting off. Then she saw me the next weekend, then last monday, we rode together. Its so much better to be on the train when you have someone to talk to. And, its so nice to not feel so alone. Im not talking about on the train, im talking about in life... i come home because sometimes the people you think are your friends, just turn their backs on you. And sometimes, you just want to go home to feel loved. Three weeks in a row on the train with Alissa makes me realize that it is OK to come home when i feel like i need to, and im not alone, other people get that way too. Now the big decision lies with me; where do i live next year? Do i dorm it again, or do i move home? Opinions? | |||

My new years plans are as follows: Kidnap liz and go to grants to hang out there. I dont think new years is a big deal, i dunno..doesnt tickle my fancy. my new years resolution is supposed to be:quit smoking...we'll see about that. and id like to add lose 10 pounds, cause i said that last year, and i lost like 30, so if i say lose 10, even if i only lose 10, im still doing sweet... maybe someday ill be not-fat-- prolly never, but maybe ill try. New years is a good time to lose weight, 1. the holidays made me put on like 5 lbs, so i need to drop that 2. if i start now, even if my weight-loss goals do not carry throughout the whole year, at least ill look a lil better when bathing-suit time rolls around... and hopefully my gut will have less rolls rockin out. 3. it puts a stop to that, "ill start my diet tomorrow" or "ill start workin out tomorrow" bullshit that everyone goes through, it sets u in the right NOW direction for being better at not being a fatass. :o) that smile goes out to grant, because, he always makes me smile and hes a sexy bitch, and congrats to him for the good news :o) So its back to the ol WMU on sunday, grant and i hope to leave my house between 8 and 9 am sunday. if you want to hang out with me, friday night im in white lake, ill come back sometime saturday, HANG OUT WITH ME SATURDAY OR NEVER. i dont know when ill be home next.. saturday i hafta do my laundry and all of my packing... should make for an interesting kind of cramming. i hope to do well this next semester, but i dont think ill be able to pull the four-o again, but hopefully lotsa As again. im gunna go hang out by myself, i think ill try to finish my scarf before its time for me to go back to school-- once im at school, i need to make my mom's scarf cause thats part of her x-mas present, yeah i gave an I O U Xmas gift. Quote of the Day: "Lucky" as said by ND. (and my mood is sore- why? i dunno.. my legs have been sore all day) |

Knock Knock Who's there? Knock Knock Who's there? OOps, i did it again. lol ok so its so stupid i laughed. Things i love: when one of my best friends is "scared" of me and hates me when i am an hour away from g-unit being able to sleep in until 7:30 during my "vacation" driving 30 minutes to work, and only working for 3.5 hours (equals like less than 20 dollars a day) then driving for another 30 minutes to get home (oh, and only getting to work 4 days this week.. then its the end of working for me until summer vacay) having 0 dollars to buy christmas presents, so ill never finish having a deadline to finish something that started out as fun, but now its like.. less fun. o wait- note sarcasm. |

I figure its time to update once again. Maybe ill be better at updating over christmas break here, cause at school, im either doing homework, hanging out with my roommates, or chillin with grant. I dont sit at my computer very much, which i think is much healthier than my prior habits. Christmas break has officially begun as of 3:10 today; its crazy to think i have no homework, no studying, nothing. Im working at the day care again, but i have NO clue about when or how much connie will have me work. I start off tomorrow morning at 7 am. yeah, thats fucking early, but i only work til noon so i can come back and nap if id like. I really want to see my mommy, but she is out of town for work, and wont be home til tomorrow night, and ill prolly go out- cause thats what i do when im home, so i wont see her :o( updates in my life: I think i did alright in all of my classes, my american studies class which Ray scared me into thinking that id fail, i just found out i got an A! Im pretty excited for that... im keeping my fingers crossed that the math gods were really with me as much as i felt they were as i took my math finals, and i might get As in both of those, but i dont think i could get lower than a BA in either. My Ed250 class, i better have earned my A, i think i figured it out correctly that i needed a 54% on my final exam in order to get an A in the class, and i think i got an A on my final anyways, but i SHOULD have an A in that class. Film interpretation.. now thats another story. His grading scale is 95-100 is an A, uhm should we say impossible? So i probably got a B. Thus far, ive earned 4 A's and 1 non-a (b first sem, ba second) for my grades, i was hoping maybe to get a 4.0, but i dont see this as the case, but id definately love to have 4 As again, this is probably my last opportunity to get that many As in college. Classes get harder and harder as time goes on. Oh and another exciting thing, for me at least, ill be considered a Junior come January :o) Does this mean ill finish early? psch no way-- im in a 5 year program, blah. my social life: well krista is supposed to move out, well was a week ago, but never did. Things will be more sound in the 232-1 zimm once this actually happens.. things will smell better and be more spacious. kinda lookin foward to it, but at the same time.. ive mostly lived with krista at Western, and it will be strange not havin her around all the time.. i dunno i might tear up a little. Grant is my boyfriend, lol i know my blurty hurr says nothing about him, but weve been together for 2 months today (since its thursday and all now) He is wonderful. Hes a big goofball that makes me laugh and smile and be jolly all the time. he lives down the hall from me, and in white lake at home (like 50ish minutes away). He is coming to see me tomorrow and im quite excited because i miss him already and it hasnt been 12 hours even. We spend every waking, and sleeping, moment together becuase we are cool. he has 2 finals tomorrow so good luck g unit. O, and hes tall. :o) Uhmm i dunno what else is new... lifes pretty good. like i said, ill try to update more often, maybe not, no one reads this. :o) |

Im at school now, completely settled in, and im loving Western once again! If you arent aware, im living with Krista, Christina, and Abby. Its been great! No fights, no quarrells, no arguments, just fun fun fun. We did an awesome job decorating our place...well lets not lie.. our dorm rooms. We live in a suite, so we have 2 rooms and a bathroom. Our living room is awesome, and i got my computer nook in the corner as i had wanted, and we have a futon and pleanty of seating or lots of friends :o) its great. The guys across the hall are starting to accept the fact that a towel or a bra is pleanty of clothing for me to be walking around the room with the door open. Ive already written 2 papers, and got my first paper back today--100%. This hopefully will be an awesome semester. MY classes are all a lot of work--tons of reading and paper writing.. but if i work hard, i should do well. The attendance policy in ALL five of my classes is as follows: miss more than 2 classes, your grade drops an entire letter. Therefor, absolutely NO skipping classes this year. My classes start at 2 on Monday and Wednesday, and i have early, if u can call em that, days on Tuesday and Thursday at 12:30. No classes Friday. THis is working out great for me. My neighbor chris next door is completely awesome, and Trick down the hall is really cool too. Trick spent over 3 hours fixing my computer a week and a half ago. He and his roommate Nick are hilarious. I can always go down to their room when i need to get away for a good laugh. Ive watched movies with them and such. We had a get together here friday with all the people we hung out with on 5E last year, and that was really cool to have everyone together again in a dorm room :o) We are all split up, but we see eachother quite a bit. Lifes just goin really great right now. I live with best friends, chris makes me smile a lot, classes going alright, and life is just awesome :o) Hopefully ill update sooner next time! Off to play some volley or walley ball at the Rec with the gang. ps- home friends-- I MISS U pps- Ben (from dennys ;o) was stranded in kalamazoo saturday but luckily i came to the rescue, hehe, and i got to see him. That was really nice :o) |

happy| Man of my dreams... | ||||
| 03:38am 23/08/2004 | ||||
I dream about being with someone like when I’m older and stuff, but I never see this mans face. Never. I don’t know if it’s that I don’t look at him, or what the deal is, but he has no face in my dreams. I was in Canada Saturday night, rockin out with the girls and Ben (thanks Mr. dd sir) and we were in Bentleys. Some scary like 5' Puerto Rican tried to size me up and hit my shit... but fsure i slyly never let that happen. I know... all the Puerto Rican pappies want these nuts, but they can’t have them. Anyways another guy comes up and I dance with him, he was eh, ok... prolly 6'1, not fat, not skinny--that was a good thing... and he kissed me on the cheek and said thank you for dancing with him. I thought that was a nice gesture. I'm impressed by chivalry We said we would go back to Fireman's at like 1 o’clock, it was 1:15ish... and we were about to go, but the last song we were there i spotted him. It was like light radiated from him...or maybe it was just his white shirt in the black light or something (jp). He had Black hair that had lotsa little spikes throughout his entire head. He had porcelain skin and beautiful eyes and lips. He stood proud about 6'3-6" tall. He wore a hemp necklace around his neck. To go with his white shirt, he wore a pair of black pants, not dress pants, not casual pants... well, probably Dickies. He had a studded belt. He was Mr. Semi-preppy, kind of punk but not too hardcore beautiful man. He was absolutely radiant. Everything I could ever want in the physical appearance of a man... more so everything on the outside pointed to the personality of the type of guy I would love to be with. Note: I had like 5 drinks all night... and by that time only 4, and had been there for 4 hours... so there was no alcohol to make my sight, or feelings, or self a bit fuzzy or blurred. So our friends walked out the door, and I hung back with Sarah and I was like he’s the most gorgeous guy I've ever seen. She was like you should go tell him, probably drunk or joking... or both... but i thought it was brilliant. So I went and told him. Then his voice sang to me. It was beautiful... he was beautiful, even better once he placed his hand on my arm and had to look down to speak with me. He asked if I wanted to dance, I explained that I had to leave because my friends were going, and he’s like where are you going? You can’t stay? And I’m like I have to go back home to Michigan, and he’s like "But I’m Canadian" Then I thought he sucked at life cause he was a fuckin canuk. Asshole. Jk-- I’m still in love with... uhm yea, i never got his name even SO. TO MY CANADIAN GOING FRIENDS:: if you ever see a guy that you think MIGHT fit this description-- I ask of you one thing-- slam a few more drinks if u need to-- go up to him (I don’t care if ura guy or a girl.. do this for me) and ask him if a tall blonde girl told him he was the most gorgeous guy she had seen.. If he says yes-- give him my number---oh and ill reimburse you for the drinks u had to slam to get the balls to go talk to him for me, especially if he calls me. lol 734 306 2950 make sure you have that with you every time u go to Canada ok ok, kidding maybe not the man of my dreams, maybe not all that mushy love at first sight, but- he was definately hot. |

determined| Fall Out Boy. | ||||
| 03:16am 23/08/2004 | ||||
It was finally here, the Sunday that was Warped. Got up early and went off to the Warped Tour. On the way there, i commented to my brothers friends about how if i died on the way home, it would be A O K cause i would have seen Fall Out Boy. My life dream, ok at least my largest goal of the summer..to see Fall Out Boy. I live by them and love them dearly. The anticipation was killing me all day. I really wanted to see Yellowcard, cause uhm, they rock my world too, but since they were playing like 15 minutes or a half hour apart, this was not possible. I needed to be within eyesight of sweat droplets on Pete and the gang's foreheads. BACKTRACK: When i got there, i scoped the place out and found their Merc spot... Pete was there along with Hey Chris. I got a shirt.. i later went back and got another shirt, and then a belt... but Pete was great and awesome and signed our shirts and he was super cool, and supersexxxy..he has the hottest teeth ive ever seen. FLASHFOWARD: so we get to the Volcom stage, which was smaller than any stage my dads damn band has ever played on.. it was tiny... there was room for like 100 people, TOPS. (Prolly one in at least 10 people there sported FOB garb/gear)Luckily we got up close, but we were to the side a bit, which we hoped might be a little bit calmer so that we wouldnt die like we almost did when Taking Back Sunday played.. woah.. so the show starts, were fucking close, people pushin, moshin, surfin... the blast it was :o).. makes me happy still.. anyways so about 2 and a half songs in, the crowd has a drastic shove to the right, and no one expected it and couldnt, or just didnt, push back to the left to counteract it.. so there we were.. about 3-5 rows of people, all on top of the fence that was to our side.. the fence didnt stand, it fell.. and just about knocked the speakers over, men had to hold them up with all of their might. The show stops. My heart stops. I just went from the highest high of my life to one of the lowest lows.. the disappointment hit me hard. The tears swelled in my eyes and then began to fall. Tears for fall out boy, tears of disappointment, tears of tragedy. The crowd came together and sang Grand Theft Autumn, sarah and i poured our hearts and our souls out singing along with everyone. Emotion was high. They didnt get to finish their set. Tragedy. All of the anticipation and excitement crashed upon me. I moped around the venue for awhile. i tried to be positive and excited, but i twas depressed. deeply depressed. Eventually we made our way to see Flogging Molly, the energy was intense. So much fun and movement and excitement. It was great, so i was leaving with a smile, which was a large jump up from the tears that had fallen only a few hours before. On the walk out, Liz spotted Pete. Excitement found itself again within and rose to a new intensity. We talked with Pete for a few, and then as we were to make our final parting.. he reached out and gave us hugs. Yes, hugs from pete. The best hug of my life. Happiness and 12-year-old-little-girl-ness overcame us all. Alas, i was again fulfilled.. but on the way home it hit me again-- the event i waited all summer for, and pictured as the 'end of the summer event' was over. It was over. Summer...over. I had a slight sadness for all of monday, people asked me all day what was wrong.. i couldnt point it out, there was nothing specific.. but it was the doneness of fall out boy. It had past. Perhaps they will come back, and finish their set, and only then can I feel fulfilled. |

i was eating dinner and the best thing happened. i was eating Alphabits cereal and towards the bottom of the bowl, i became concious about the letters that i was actually eating. i scrounged through the bowl lookin for an S to follow the A that i had already found. i wanted to spell Ashley cause ima geek like that. and i got pissed so i stirred my cereal, and then grabbed a bite. I happened to look down at the 3 pieces of cereal floating in the milk on my spoon. in the correct order..... POT HAHAHHAHHA i laughed for 10 minutes, sitting alone in my kitchen, i mean out loud obnoxious laughing. :O) |
