a pretty darn good day

I would like to start off this post by wishing Sarah a HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY birthday!!!!!! I LOVE you buddy!!!!!!! Have a fantastic 20th year!
Classes weren't bad today...not too much homework. I am officially frustrated with a certain someone I'm around quite a bit (when they're actually here...I'm not naming names.) It involves a printer. And it's annoying. So after fall break I will officially have a printer of my own so I don't have to deal with this. Slight grrr.
I went to Dairy Queen today! Twice! Ha ha...once with Sarah as a birthday celebration, once with Chelsea, Melissa, Jessy, Dania, and....Anne (? I'm really not sure), on our way to a coffee shop where this REALLY hot guy was singing pretty darn well. It was happy. And he sung a bunch of songs that we sang at the chapel portion of band bonding, so that made me extremely happy. :D

House is on...so I'm going to enjoy it...but it has been a great day. :)

NOOOOOOOOOO

I was all happy. Until now. I figured out last night that I'd be able to go home for fall break, and I was talking to an at-home buddy, and she mentioned the fact that I might be able to see the Marching Knights...that it might be ISU weekend...so I started freaking out and getting all excited because I really really REALLY want to see them perform this year...then I figured out that ISU is on the 21st. I'll be home on the 28th. They'll be at their Minnesota performance that weekend. So now I'm really sad :( grrrrrrrrr.
But now Grey's Anatomy is on...so I must leave....at least that's happy :)

steady improvement...

Not a bad day at all. I was actually in a really good mood all day, just a slight amount of iffiness immediately after dinner while en route to my dorm, but pretty much as soon as I got there I was fine.
I managed to twirl my rifle today. And it was awesome. Until it bit me...my knuckle is still swollen to twice its size and has turned an interesting shade of purpley pink despite almost two hours of being iced. Grrrr. I hope it heals soon, though, I want to twirl that rifle again...
And I saw the Reduced Shakespeare Company today...that was fun...a nice two hour long study break :)
But alas I must get some sleep for fear of missing my 745 class again. One missed class this week is more than enough.... :P

I know I'm quiet...I've always been quiet...not exactly an extrovert. But. It's not making me boring is it? Once I've known a person for a certain amount of time, I normally really open up and never exactly shut up. But that hasn't been the case lately. Hmm. I hate being unsure of myself. I should really quit questioning almost everything I've been doing lately. But I can't help it...can I? Idk stupid vicious cycles...if that's even what it is...*arches eyebrow and begins wondering exactly what was meant by that....* I need to be as self confident as I've been in the past, it seems to be slowly wearing away. And I need to open up more. And quit questioning everything. And get to bed now so I'm not dead tomorrow morning...

:D

So today...was great. I continued in my great knitting adventures, and actually started my gryffindor scarf!!!!!!!!!!! :D :D :D and it has red....and gold! Two colors! yay!!!
That was my happy moment for the day. OH! How could I forget! Sarah introduced me to the most hysterical song of all time.. "Hermione, the Pirate Queen!" A song sung by a pirate about Harry Potter. Seriously, what could be better? NOTHING!!!!! :D
And I didn't feel depressed today. Not at all. Looks like it very well may have been hormones. Oh, happy day...

a wonderful birthday indeed

So today was finally my golden birthday. A birthday I've been looking forward to since the age of three when I found out what a golden birthday is. And it was...AMAZING!!!!!
It started out at 8 am with Naiya, Chelsea, Jess, Melissa and Sarah waking me up via an onslaught of balloons aimed at me. I was sung to in band. My new brown kitten heels managed to completely destroy my toes. The buddies who woke me up made me a cucumber cake with carrot candles, and they also gave me red and gold yarn with gold knitting needles and instructions for a Gryffindor scarf (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!), which will be started tomorrow since I just got the yarn balled a minute ago. My mom called me, as did my dad. I also succeeded knockin my marigold sprouts over for the second time...all over my Orlando Bloom poster that still won't hang...and they were recently watered :( grrrrr.
My loneliness was definetley better today than it has been for a while, which was wonderful. I'm hoping it was just hormones...I have a feeling it was.
Oh! arrrrrr how could I be forgettin' mate it also be national talk like a pirate day. aarrrrrrrr swab the poop deck......
