Blogging Assignment #3

You can know someone all your life without really knowing them. Getting to know someone beneath the surface is something that most people don’t often do. I know I don’t. It takes more than being an acquaintance to say that you really know someone. Over the summer I became acquainted with someone from my work. Just the fact that she already completed a year at NAU made me determined to get to know her. The end of summer came and differing work schedules made it impossible to get to know her.

School started and opportunities to get to know each other began to appear. This acquaintance became a friend. A busy semester proved it hard to hang out regularly, however a 45+ hour work week over Winter Break proved to be the right amount of time to get to know someone.

Before coming back up to school, Jenny was my 2^nd friend I was able to come out to. This moment of extreme openness is what opened our friendship up to anything and everything. Since break, Jenny has been the person I call if I need advice, someone to vent to, someone to listen to me, and someone to eat with. Just two days ago we hung out for 14 hours, I don’t know if I can say I have ever spent that much time with a friend.

An acquaintance formed into a friendship, which formed to something even closer. Her personality has influenced me in many ways. I am fairly sure I can say she is one of the only people I know who cannot be mean, at all. Her easygoing and relaxed personality has HOPEFULLY started to wear off on me. Learning to deal with stress and stupid people is something I know I need to work on.

It’s funny knowing that Jenny will be reading this, but I’ll be glad she has. She is someone I have known for almost 10 months, but I have really only known these past 3. I can only look forward to these next years of friendship.

Musical. Overload. MAJOR. 42 down 2 to go.... my head hurts :(
so if anyone ever asks, yes, there is such a thing as too many musicals. at least different ones all consumed at the same time. but still, its kinda exciting to know that 11 days... 44 musicals thats basically 11 a day (no wonder im going crazy, haha).

other news!

last week was a good week, and its continued on to this week! :)
granted its not been wonderful all the time, but thats not the point. i wasnt feeling well last night and didnt want to go to the tbs meeting, but afterwards i finished my whole General Plan Analysis for my PL201 class, major relief! now i only have a major synthesis paper due for my ENG 105 class. But i finished the movie and i know the book backwards and forwards!

the gym has been going well, its fun! however. last week i started to run out of stem, and then started to get sick. so i didnt go to the gym on thursday and friday, but thats ok. and then this weekend i was starting to get better, but i had a bit of sugar firday night and saturday night so i kinda went back to bad :( right now im trying my hardest to get better cuz im going to disneyland!!! and even though i want to go to the gym this week, i cant overexert myself otherwise i wont get better for dland. so maybe ill just go on wednesday cuz i dont have class till 10:20, ...maybe thursday too.

im excited to go to disneyland! i dont know why my family is going... but im not going to question it! ill probably drive home thursday night after LOST, and then we're leaving for cali on firday and spending saturday, sunday, and monday day in dland :) woooo! hehe.

well, thats all i can think of for now. im going to post a disneyland picture..... hm... i dont know if i want to post an edited one or not, well, i probably should to keep in tradition, but whatever! i have about 3,500 disneyland pictures on my computer! so i have lots to choose from. heh :)

have a great week! dont stress! too many people are overstressing right now, and its your own fault! just calm down!
