it's all going by so quickly.
ok. so this past weekend…
saturday night: got there around 3:30. we hung out and chilled for a little while. i gave him his birthday present. i think he liked it. at least, i hope so. we chatted for a little while… then we ran over to the church and played ping pong for a little bit. he killed me. not gonna lie, but it aggravated me a little bit… just because i suck at ping pong, and i'm a little competitive. just a little bit.
we left from there to dinner. he gave me my pick for dinner. we went to applebee's. conversation to me is still a little awkward… but it's fun. i haven't felt like this for a while. we left there and headed to the movie theater.
he took me to go see 'the bourne supremacy.' that was so sweet… he had already seen it, and we went to see it because i wanted to. that was so awesome. wow. that's all i can say. the movie was great. but full of awkward tension where our hands sat on the chairs. it was so cheesy… but so funny.
from there we went back to his apartment. we decided to watch 'red dragon' because i refused to watch it alone. again, chris was thinking of me! it was so sweet. but we had to watch it in his room, that's where the t.v. was. again, we laid there on the bed about 6 inches from each other with the awkward tension. our arms touched for about 5 mins. it was so weird. so awkward.
we talked for a little longer outside by my car. i left around 11:30. yep, that's right… 8 hour date. yeehaw!
so sunday i went back up for praise team practice. the band isn't half bad. i didn't know that chris could play the guitar as well as he did. that made me happy.
anyways, all of the kids knew who i was. it was strange, but fun. they all embarrassed us both. classic. afterwards, i got to talk to one of his girls. that was the coolest experience. yay for that. afterwards, we ran to subway to get some dinner… well, he did. anyways, he drove my car. it was such a strange moment for me.
we went back to his apartment and chatted. he said that he was amazed while watching me hang out with the youth. i felt so special. if there's one thing that i can always say when i'm hanging out is that he makes me feel so important. and i love that.
we played poker. i won the first 5 hands. completely out of luck. it was so funny.
by that time, we were getting really tired, so i headed out around 11:15. it was a long ride home. yikes. it rained so hard… and it was so foggy. gross weather.
so last night when i was talking to him, and he invited me to georgia for his family birthday. wow. wasn't expecting that. but i'm excited. wow, it's so hard to say exactly how i feel about it. everything that we're doing seems so long-term. it's scary really. but in a good way. it's very exciting.
so now there are plans to go this weekend to georgia. and then all day on sunday in albertville. and hopefully monday we'll do something too. i hope so. that would be so fun. i hope that he'll come to b'ham. there's so much we can do down here.
it is hard not seeing him during the week. i almost got used to seeing him so much this weekend. now it's like i have withdrawals. and that's gross. i don't like it. i'm so ready for the weekend to get here. i just want to see him. so bad.
he amazes me. he's so funny… so cheesy. he's so passionate about his faith… his youth… it's amazing. truly awesome. i love it. here's hoping for a while. i know i'd love it.
underway
well, classes are now in full swing. today was the first day that i had to actually take notes and not just get syllabi.
here's what my day looks like on a normal tuesday or thursday:
english 216 (8:00-9:15): the teacher is only around 25 or 26. so it's kind of strange. but it's an interesting class. although, her history lessons for the time period behind the works could use a little work. it almost seemed like me and the history major guy a few seats over were explaining why the french revolution were so important to william blake's work. i'd like to say that i am a fan now of blake. he has some interesting things to say about faith. and he humors me because of his satire. it's moving. i found out today that he was classified as one of the satanic school writers… that bothered me a little. but then we found out it wasn't exactly what we thought it meant. anyways, here's something that i walked away with from blake that i loved: "application. he who sees the infinite in all things sees God. he who sees the ratio sees himself only. therefore God becomes as we are, that we may be as he is." (from 'there is no natural religion, 1788)
and just as a side note… someone help me. i don't want to view it right now, it freaks me out a little, but if you've seen red dragon, answer… isn't the work cited from the character from william blake? i think it is… but i need help.
astronomy 101 (9:30-10:45): dr. keel is a funny guy. he's got his own little world, but he's creative at least. i love teachers that teach what they love with passion. it's great. anyways, i found out a lot of stuff i didn't know about stars, the moon, and the sun. of course, i'll be doing that all semester. should prove to be interesting.
lunch (11:00-12:15): yep. i scheduled it. it's a blast. in fact, today i had lunch with trevor. yay trevor! and yay for your gutsy perseverance. i admire that in you. you rock. you should know that. thanks for eating lunch with me today.
art history 253 (12:30-1:45): i know i'll love this class. it's right up my alley. yay for art. and yay for the rockin' mac chick that i sit next to… her family all has a mac… that is awesome. so it's nice to have a mac geek out during the day. if only winston were there… wow, it'd be insane. plus, the room where we have the class has a mac as it's computer for the screens. it made me smile from ear to ear when i saw the desktop. yay. double yay. it's a shame that we have to leave gothic architecture for survey one though. i love that stuff.
spanish 201 (2:00-3:15): eduardo. funny guy. although he has no clue about computers. we could finally log in to our coursework. but when we went to the lab, all we did was find out how to log in to the server. come on. yuck. but, it should be an interesting semester because eduardo is a little fireball. i think he's crazy. but in a good way. in a it's-gonna-be-a-fun-class-kind-of-way.
art 224 (3:15-6:00): yep, i leave one class and bust my butt to get to the next. good thing that the buildings are right next to each other. this class is going to be a seeming breeze. there are a few things on the syllabus that i will be glad to learn. but on thursday, we're talking about how to turn on a mac. wow. i think i might need to learn that… sheesh. vectors are in a few weeks. that'll be a great thing to learn though, because it's one thing i need to know. but, we can leave after lecture. so i'll get out of class around 4:15. so that's nice. because i'll work from home. not on those old iMac's. they're running OS8… yikes!
astronomy 102 (thursday, 7:00-9:50): only on thursday. and i haven't had it yet. so we'll see what happens this week. should be interesting.
today after class i came home and went to sleep. i swear, i'm never gonna catch up on sleep. i need it bad. really bad.
i have 3 appointments tomorrow. with school stuff, and one at the church. and tomorrow night also starts disciple. i'm excited, but nervous. i hope that i can keep up. it'll be a lot. but, it'll be a great thing.
so far, this week hasn't poked by yet. of course, now that i say that, it will. and that's not cool at all. i want it to get here fast! labor day weekend is one of my favorites. plus, my weekend is gonna be jam packed in a good way. the lake will make an appearance… friends, family… a little road trip. it might prove to be some really good stuff. really really good.
i'm watching cnn, covering the republican national convention. it's so funny to watch how differently it's covered than that DNC. but i feel like i should give even time… i haven't decided yet. but i want to be informed. in fact, i probably won't make my final decision until after that debates. of course, there's a leaning right now, but i won't make an official stance yet. it makes my parents furious to think that i don't have a firm belief in voting for the republican candidate. but they're republican. maybe i will… maybe i won't. i don't know enough yet. but in a discussion with my mom yesterday, i joked that who knows, i may vote for nader. my mom said that there's no sense in voting if you're not voting for one the primary candidates. what???? are you crazy? you should ALWAYS vote. be informed, make your voice known. and if you have the right and don't vote, you should keep your freakin' mouth shut for the next 4 years. what right do you have to complain if you didn't even voice your own opinion?
ok, sorry. that bothered me. but i'm over it. really. well maybe not.
anyways, today is the last day of what has seemed to be a really memorable month. yay for august… for new months to come… and for fun things that will come out of the days to come. ok, i'm going to get my stuff done so i can go to bed. i'm a sleepy girl.
ode to birmingham
today i took a day to enjoy where i am.
i accidentally slept in later than i planned. apparently, i kept hitting the sleep button, and it just decided to give up on me. i woke up around 8:30 with the smell of breakfast. it was nice.
i decided that i needed to spend a day just being whatever. i've been on the go since last week, and knew that i needed some 'me' time. whatever that means.
i got in my car and just drove towards downtown. i got off at 4th ave and drove through uab and that end of birmingham. i ended up over on 280/31. i headed south and got off at the 21st ave exit, and turned right. i ended up on valley ave, and decided that it was dang time i went to pay a visit to my good old friend vulcan.
i haven't been to see vulcan since i was probably about 8. i remember hearing when they were gonna take him down, and i cried. but, it brought me great joy to see him put back up last summer. of course, being on the south side of town (hoover) during this, and then moving to alex city, i didn't get to go hang out.
today i decided was the day. i went into the museum and learned all about the creation of it during the world's fair in 1904 in st. louis. great stuff. i also learned that the light he used to have was added later on. the light was in the museum. it used to look so small from the interstates. now, it was 3 times my size. of course, so is vulcan's foot. i remember when i was small, that the light used to tell us if there was a traffic fatality that day. it kept the city united. it was great.
i went up to the tower. it was then i remembered my fear of heights. and it's not a good thing that the walkways at the observation tower are grates. yikes. i probably looked so stupid up there walking around. but, i didn't care, it was just me up there. i stopped and rested on one of the bars on the outer circle and just stared into what seemed so tranquil of a city. from afar, it was so quiet. you'd only know the hustle and bustle if you were inside it at the moment. i looked for what seemed days. it was breathtaking.
i used to hate being in birmingham. it's taken me a while to learn what the city really means to me. i think that's one of the reasons i was so excited to come home this past may. birmingham is such a huge part of my life. there are so many aspects that i grew up into while being on the outskirts of the metro area.
growing up, my grandparents used to take me and my brother downtown to see the tall buildings. my grandfather would always point out the building that my grandmother used to work in. back then it seemed magical. now that i've been in the building several times, it means even more. then, we'd be taken through southside and see the cultural marks of the city. this was before they revamped it though. now, sitting by the fountain brings back so many memories.
the best memories though are sitting my the airport landing strips. both my grandparents and my parents would take us out and we'd sit on the cars and watch planes take off and land for hours. i'm still fascinated by it. in fact, it was so cool to me to see the airport from vulcan and see planes taking off. it again brought back so many memories.
so much has changed here, but so much has stayed the same. there are things you can always count on to always be there… vulcan, the airport, big buildings, small town people, culture… these things are what makes birmingham come alive to me. it's just a small reason that i love it so much.
i'm so glad that i've grown up here, and experienced all that i have. there's still so much to visit that i've never done… the mcwane center, birmingham museum of art, civil rights museum. all of these things are now on my list of things to do. and i will do them… i know it will increase my love for the city even more.
after my reminiscence i went to make a few visits. i went to see my friend julie… for a surprise visit. and she got engaged on satruday! so i was so excited. i left there and i went to visit the andrews for a little while. we caught up with news, and around 2:30, i headed over to berry middle school to visit another close friend from high school. today was a great day. it was so needed. of course, when i have days like this though, it makes me want to have so much more free time to enjoy the moments that i forget. hmmm… if only i could do that all the time.
feelin' back up to it
today was a great day.
although it got off to a much later start that usual. i didn't go to sunday school. i just went to the service. but, it was incredible. the whole service just went together. i walked away feeling like God really spoke to me this morning.
after that, i went to eat lunch with my bro and sis-in-law. i let them in on the latest news and views… and we had a wonderful lunch. it was great. i enjoy spending time with them more and more. they're super awesome.
i left from there and headed up to oneonta. i went by my grandparents' house… but they weren't home. so i let myself in, grabbed a drink from the basement fridge, picked up a hammock and then went outside to bask in the beauty that God gave us. it was incredible. i wrote about it in my written journal… i'll post it later, because right now i'm tired.
after then, i went up to help my "friend" with youth tonight. it was a blast. of course, now i have 3 carpet burns to prove it. i forgot what those were like. yuck. anyways, the girls kept asking me if i was gonna start coming in regularly… and i really didn't know how to respond. sure i wanted to, and i'd love to do it, but i had to do some checking into it. but i never had to ask because before i left, i was officially invited to pay a visit whenever i feel like it. and he said that he knew the girls would love it if we did a girls night out. i felt super special.
tonight, i felt like i was in my element. it was nice. i've missed it. it was even greater confirmation to what i'm headed to do when i graduate. no, it wasn't set it stone, but it gives me a glimpse…. that i know i want to work with youth in some capacity whether it be ministry or education. there's no doubt in my mind now.
after youth, my "friend" asked me to sit down with one of the girls and chat. he has briefed me in on it early this week. it was so great talking to her… he said that he was amazed to watch me and this girl chat. that made me feel so incredible. boy… talk about having a great day. today was it.
we went to go get subway afterwards and played some 5 card texas hold 'em or something like that. it was my first time to play… and i so beat him. it's a shame that we weren't playing for money. i coulda walked away a little richer.
so now i'm home. and i'm beat. it's a worth-it tired though. this will be a long week, i'm sure. because i'm just waiting for the weekend… again. ugh, i swear that's the hardest part.
today has been a long day. not in anger of the day… but in actual length.
i left this morning around 8 a.m. i had breakfast at cracker barrel with my parents and then headed to huntsville for our big events meeting.
there's something about that committee. they're so awesome. i think the best part was actually at mcallister's after the meeting was over. i've never been harassed so much in my life about such minute things. geez. but, it was funny. really funny.
in fact, as i was leaving huntsville i called amy to tell her about some of it. i was laughing so hard while telling the story, i inhaled, and started choking on my gum. i was doing about 15 things at one time while i was driving… phone, iPod, driving with the knee… so it took me a minute to figure out how i needed to take on the situation. in hind sight, that was really funny.
then i went to visit a "friend". fun times. conversation, dinner, and 2 movies… i finally now have seen 'the bourne supremacy'. yay. GREAT movie. loved it. now i can't wait for the next one. after that, we went back and watched 'red dragon.' so maybe that's not the best movie to watch right before i head home on a one hour drive back to birmingham, THROUGH douglas, snead and other podunk places down the way. yikes. i just kept praying that i wouldn't see any broken mirrors. yikes. i just got chills. yuck. but it was a great movie.
i have to go to bed now. i have stuff to do in the morning before church. then sunday school and church, lunch, going to my grandparents for a few hours and then up to help my "friend" with youth. it should be a fun filled day. i just need to figure out when i'm going to study this weekend. ugh.
big events committee, you rock my face off. everyone on the lj's, you rule. love you all. g'night.
date is less than 18 hrs away…
well, it's getting here… fast. and i'm getting nervous. very nervous.
tomorrow night, saturday, aug 28 is our first date, me and chris. i'll be excited to see what it's like. i have a feeling that it might be totally weird. but, it might be good. i also fear that i won't be excited about it… i have this whole chase situation. now that i've caught, will i pursue it? i sure hope so. i hope that it's not a chase situation.
anyways. after the meeting, i'm going down. i'll be there at like 2 p.m. so, we'll be hanging and doing our 'date' thing for a while. we won't go to the movie until like 7 p.m. so, it will be a long date. but i'm sure it will be a fun one. we always have great conversation.
which by the way, he made the hugest gesture tonight. i told him that i wasn't gonna be able to see 'the bourne supremacy' tonight, he decided that we would go see it tomorrow night. and he's already seen it. total sweetness chris. you get brownie points.
i'm so nervous. so nervous. i'm so afraid that i'll do the whole ross/rachel thing when they first got together and laugh sometimes. i have so many questions. will he hold my hand? will he try to give me a kiss? yikes. i'm so scared.
i haven't done this dating thing in a while. i'm still in high school mode with it all. i hope i'm not some blubbering idiot. will it be different when i see him?
ugh. all the questions. i just need it to be over with… that'll make it all better.
bummerness…
today wasn't too exciting. i pretty much did nothing. and it was pretty exciting. at least for me anyways.
tonight i went to dinner with my friends melissa and laura from high school. i ran around with melissa in high school… we knew laura, but we weren't great buddies. laura and melissa roomed together at auburn. so now we can all hang out and it's cool. i love it. but it still feels strange sometimes… like i'm looking in from the outside. they've been close for a few years, but more consistently and sooner. melissa and i have been friends for about 10 years… so we know so much, but i still feel like i know so little. it's strange. very.
anyways, yesterday we made plans to go see 'the bourne supremacy' tonight. laura rented 'the bourne identity' last night to watch it. but she never got around to it. so melissa didn't want to go see it on behalf of laura. which is cool… but i had my heart set on watching it, because i STILL haven't. and i've waited so long. i was gonna just go watch it by myself tonight. but, i did not, because melissa needed some chat time. and that's cool. so i just decided that i'll be going to see it as soon as i can, with or without people.
on my way home, i decided to go to wal-mart… to get an FM transmitter instead of the tape converter thing. it works much better. and, turns out, on my way home, because of a phone call, i'm going to see 'the bourne supremacy' tomorrow night. yay. i'm so ready.
tomorrow will be a crazy day… i've already decided. we have a big events meeting tomorrow morning at 10 in huntsville. i really hope that the youth have come up with some stuff for annual conference. if not, it could be a long meeting. long. ugh.
after that, i'm headed to albertville for a visit… and i'll get to see the movie finally… even though, he's already seen it. wow, what a great gesture.
that's all for now. because i'm tired. and i want to go to bed. love you all. g'night.
serious power nap
so i went to bed right after my post last night… around 11:15 p.m… and had been up since 5:30 a.m.
i got up this morning at 8:30 a.m. to eat breakfast and felt really crappy… kind of that hit-by-a-bus feeling. or at least i'm assuming that's the way it felt. no real idea though because i've never been hit by a bus. hmmm… i just felt really really bad. as i ate a little cinnamon toast, i felt an overwhelming sickness feeling shoot through my body. i think i had finally pushed my body too far physically this week… not the worst in my life, but since my pace has slowed tremendously from youth ministry, my body didn't expect it now.
around 9:00, i decided to lay down for another hour or 2. well… it's 1:30, and i've now been up for 15 mins. ugh. i don't know if i should feel glad that maybe i've allowed my body to rest or bad that i've let myself sleep in so much.
because of the thursday classes situation, i believe that i'm going to change my work schedule. even yesterday with it being the first day of class, and you're not really doing much except getting syllabi, it was still a long day. i'm glad that all of my classes are then. but, it makes me wonder about how long i can do it that way… for at least 3 more semesters, right? yah… we'll see.
anyways, so this set up has me thinking about school… not about leaving. but about how i want to arrange it. do i want to lose the 10-12 hours or so to transfer to uab and finish here although the school itself drives me absolutely crazy? we'll see. it will be bathed in much prayer here soon.
just out of boredom…
and because everyone else is doing it…

you know, i'm not so sure how accurate that is. i feel like a much bigger geek than they're giving me credit for… huh. well at least it makes me feel a little less geeky.
again, i ask, what the crap?
so today hasn't been the greatest day. it all started to plummet after lunch.
the day started out early… at 5:30 a.m. i got up, got ready, and headed off to ttown. all was good. i had breakfast on my way. i made good time. i even helped out 2 girls that were lost on campus and couldn't find buildings. on 2 separate occasions. and, i still made it to class well before time, so i grabbed a CW and read for about 10 mins. and, i had the iPod to keep me company between classes. so, i was ready to go.
i got to class. i like my teacher. she's funny… a little ditzy. but, she's only 1 freakin' year older than me. this is strange. anyways, she changed the book requirements. so, that was the beginning of the strange day. but no matter, i'll go and exchange it at the supe store.
i headed to astronomy. i met an interesting girl who is now my classmate, next seat over. she's very colorful… very. from georgia, and her dad played for bear bryant from 76-80… has 2 national championship rings… she enjoyed bragging about their drunken reunions, and how she personally knows bob baumhower. so, class. dr. keel is funny… and funny looking. but, i enjoyed his comments. he has his own little world, but it's a funny one. my favorite was: 'the dinosaurs should have seen the end coming. i mean, come on, all they had to do was invest billions of dollars into a program to see the gigantic asteroid coming… and then find bruce willis to take it out.' it was classic dorky professor humor. in that class, we have 3 different books that we're supposed to bring. when i left, i walked down the hall a ways, and there before me is one of my old youth from riverchase. at this point, i REALLY feel old. ancient. like the dinosaurs… but how do i get the money to stop my asteroid?
anyways, the best part of the day is next… lunch with mary, trevor, bess, matt miller, reed and kyle. i didn't know reed and kyle. but i do now. we had lunch in the ferg. it was fun times. yay for a umc connection. but don't lose it trevor… we like you here.
i then headed to my art history class. when i walk in, i see my professor. it's deja-vu. i've already had her for this class before! i had to drop it for a medical withdrawal from the semester… but i had her before! it was so strange. same class, same teacher, but different last name, because she's gotten married. but it excites me. she's fun. bummer though… in the supe store (i swear they just love ripping students off, there is no student love there) they said that 2 books were required for the class. well, only one of them was… we got to choose which one we want. so of course i'll take the cheaper one. but, this is another trip to the ferg that i must take before i leave. and it was a mad house there.
i went over to the art department to ask a question about my math requirement. i thought that i had to have a C or better, but it kept saying that my math req. was filled in my D- from my freshman year. yeah, i know bad grade… leave me alone. so i go to ask, but pam (the magic queen of the art department who can do anything) isn't there. so i decide to come back later.
i go to the supe store to exchange the books that i had. while i'm there, i find my spanish 201 book that i've needed (that they said wouldn't be there until sept 4). it's $120. and it's tiny. what the crap? so after dropping some more cash, i head to class.
i went to spanish. my teacher eduardo is absolutely fantastic. es muy divertido y muy muy simpatico. anyways… i find out in that class, that we have the coursecompass set up like math 112. at this point, i become really aggravated, because i hate classes like that…. ugh. they're horrible. but oh well. i think positively. but it's hard knowing i just spent all that money on the book, and we'll be on the computer for most of it.
after sp201, i head back over to pam's office. she's there… i ask my question, and she calls her people. she said she hopes to hear back soon and tells me to check in after class.
i go to art224… my graphic design class. while i'm in there and i hear everything, i discover that this class has already been taken by me… in st. louis at maryville university. although, when i transferred it in, the current class didn't exist so it got brought in as art 314. so, i'm a little frustrated that i'm gonna have to sit through intro to photoshop again… AND, they overbooked the class. there are 23 computers. and 25 people. so, she asks if anyone has a mac at home. i'm the only one. so now i have to bring my laptop to class to work. and to me, that sucks. but, she also said that we don't always have to work in the lab during class. so, yep… i'll be home early on tuesdays.
so her books that she asks for weren't in the supe store earlier. so now we have to buy them from amazon.com or somewhere of the like.
after class, i head back over to pam's office. she found out the answer. apparently my D- counted the first time. what the hell? you mean to tell me that i had 2 freakin' different advisors tell me i had to retake math, and all along i didn't? so i just threw over $1200 to the university in stupid math classes that i never needed? at this point, i feel like i'm gonna vomit. seriously… i wanted to walk over to the advisors who told me that and punch them in the nose. i could be 2 classes closer to graduation. ugh.
i head over to arts & sciences to talk to the art advisor. she explains the situation to me and says there's nothing they can do about it. whatever, there's something i can do. i'm writing a horrible letter to the dean of A&S and telling him that this exact incident happens when you don't have a FULL TIME advisor for the art department. we've got tons of students, and a part time advisor. when she's not there, we have to go see other people, who obviously don't know what the hell they're doing.
i go back over to the supe store… and find one of the books for my graphic design class. i also decide to pick up a tape converter thingy for my iPod so i can listen to it in the car. and yet drop a little more money on books. but yet, i have 2 more books that i have to get…
i start to head home, crank up the iPod… 6 mins into the music, the tape starts flipping back and forth between sides… clears up, and plays… 6 mins later, it does it again. this happens all the way home… it's a freakin' hour drive. about the 3rd time, i begin screaming at the tape player and decide that a good judo chop would be a good idea. yeah, it wasn't. now my hand is bruised. and it still hurts.
i come home. and decide to write down all of the checks/debits from my books into the check register. i keep noticing they're big numbers. so i total it out. over $450… and remember… 2 books to go. i ordered one tonight that put the total up to $480… i swear, i've never spent so much money on books in one semester. it makes me want to puke seeing all that just drift out of my bank account.
i take all of the books out of the bags and unwrap them. the phone rings, i get up to get it and walk back over… but my big toe ever so gracefully decides to take a head on collision with the book pile, and it takes a huge chunk out of my toe. again… what the crap?
i sit down at the computer to sign up the computer stuff for my spanish class. it absolutely refuses to let me sign in. it wont' do anything. i don't know what i'm doing wrong. but, it absolutely refuses. so this continues to piss me off.
now, my back hurts, my right leg is cramping from the toe up, and i'm ready to have university employees fired.
but in all seriousness… i realize that in the world scope of things, it could probably be worse. so despite my whining, i'm gonna make tomorrow a better day. it has to be anyways. today has been absolute hell… minus lunch.
now i'm going to bed because i'm exhausted… but tonight is missing something special and something meaningful. hopefully it will be found tomorrow. love you all… g'night.
