vacation all i ever wanted...

hola.  and so my week goes.  adam is off at drummond island, i may be joining him come wednesday.  His family (brother, sister-in-law, best friend) were here this weekend and we did the normal tour of the keewenaw.  It was a grand time, I got to see some new stuff.  Plus we got to go kayaking out at Lily pond.  good times. good times.  Now everyone has left me for the island and I only have casey and kahlua as company.  rough life aye?  if it wasn't for these stupid classes... rar...  i just got down my mind-stumping paper.  I was fairly excited.  Now I should only have a few more things to do in preparation for skipping a couple of days.
 
i've decided my blog is nothing but a mindless ramble.  from now on I will try to at least come up with one productive thing to mention in my blahs... sorry for the bore... but in theory, i guess this is more for me than for you anyway..... hmmm

one of THOSE moods...

 

everything is gonna be alright
be strong, believe.
 
this may never start
we could fall apart
and i'd be your memory
lost your sense of fear
feelings insincere
can i be your memory?
get back back back to where we lasted
just like i imagined
i could never feel this way
get back back back to the disaster
my heart's beating faster
holding on to feel the same
 
don't say it'll stay this way forever

eyes are feeling heavy but they never seem to close
even tho ur next to me, i still feel so alone
i just can't give you anything for you to call your own
and i can feel you breathing and it's keeping me awake
can u feel it beating? my heart sinking, like a weight
 
keep your head up
it's all right in front of you
when they say wake up
you drank in the ridicule
all the sentimental memories you own
keep you trapt inside your room there all alone
 
There's a spring in my stride
There's a twinkle in my dying eyes
 
'Cos I'm holding my own
Give or take a tear or twoI
'm holding my own
No matter what I put myself through
 
i'm hold ing my own

my little hole in the wall...

so i've taken up the notion that nobody ever looks at this... so i think it will end up becoming more like a diary of the unknowing, that is assuming no one that reads this really knows me... saweet...
 
work sucks ass. i work @ Maurice's in retail and all of my co-workers (with the exception of one) are seriously petty and i think that makes them great for selling clothes.  i, however, have a hard time constantly complimenting people on something as materialistic as clothing.  but to be a hypocrit, my wardrobe has been gaining regular additions since my job.  what a loser i am.
 
random rant... ADAM... so this boyfriend of mine that happens to be totally awesome and way sweet is a senior and graduating this spring... far away, yes.... out of thought? no.  ya know when you're having those normal day to day conversations with a significant other and then something pertaining to the uncetainty of the future jumps in??  I know i feel really odd and shitty when that happens in this particular case scenario... then again, this could be something that is too far away to even think about but ya know... rar...
 
i miss megan...

reality tv

my next essay will be dealing with reality tv and how the lack of critique in today's society is suggesting the scary truth that maybe the masses really believe that reality tv is real... sounds fun eh?

speech topic.. informative speech. 3-5 minutes... hella harder than it seems, sometimes i feel like i just suck at school. oh well, here's to the deteriation of the brain. bravo

holy black flies...

so that trip to the porkies was cut super short... our first day of hiking was fun. we made it 7 miles into our 4 day trip. bugs weren't too terrible after we started a fire and it made for a good first night... however... on the second day when we got close to superior we were swarmed with black flies. the poor dog was covered... so we made the decision to hike the remaining 17 miles to the car... i thought i was going to die. ok, that could be a large exaggeration.. but seriously the flies were so bad at some points that i was in tears... yeah, only thing worse would be bees or wasps.. uck.

since we cut the trip short we were back in houghton early... unfortunately we were in bad shape from the all the hiking and fleeing from the stupid bugs... a lazy fourth of july that included movies was the right combo...

yesterday casey got a haircut... not a trim.. a shave... he definitely is an ugly dog... adam also picked a tick off of him last night. not cool. if i ever have a tick on me, i'll totally freak out. but casey didn't seem to pay it much mind.

thursday i give a speech on the similarities between myself and a bauer hockey skate... specifically the comparisons in my supportiveness and the skates' and also the same aggressive characteristic that we share... o yeah, hopefully not disasterous.

live dangerously... wear tights...

to the porkies!!

oh yeah, off we go for the fourth of july to the porcupine mtns for a backpacking excursion. This trip will include casey, adam, and myself. sounds like a fun time... hopefully we'll get good weather and not eaten by bears :)

started classes this week... makes for a hectic schedule. turns out i have the same instructor for both classes which hasn't proven to be a bad deal yet... so that's good. it looks like i will have a lot more homework and preparation for these two classes than my two from last track.... my 8am is speech communication in which we are to focus on public speaking... talk about an eye opener and my 10am is popular culture. this class i believe will open up to a lot of discussion about current events and society reactions to those events.. i'm suprisingly excited :)

well i hope everybody enjoys the fourth and gets to see some awesome fireworks!! have fun.
