I'm listening to Taking Back Sunday.
I’m ^^ and laying in bed with my laptop. I recently purchased a wireless router upon the exiting of Eric from the house, because now my friends have been coming over a lot to keep me company and they have laptops. And one really could not go with internet (or wow) without going crazy, so it was a necessary purchase. Otherwise, I am wondering how I am going to find a roommate to pay for this...

Listening to the new There For Tomorrow album, coming out June 9th. Remarkably good, I haven’t been as excited for an album in a long time.

I just posted interviews with these guys, (Anarbor) and Breathe Carolina. Also there is a new spotlight up about the Take Action Tour.
In other news, somehow in the last three years I’ve been doing the site/interviews, bands have seemingly gotten younger? All of the guys in Anarbor are nineteen. What.

Rachel: Peux-j'avoir le dernier muffin?
Didier (my boss): Ask Luc if he wants it.
(I'm not sure exactly what he said in Frech, actually.)
Rachel: Luc, do you want this muffin?
Luc: Umm, sure.
Rachel: No, it's not a question. Luc, do you want this muffin?
Luc: I guess, if you're asking me.
Rachel: Are you willing to fight for it?
Luc: I dunno, what kind of fight?
Rachel: A fight to the death. The survivor gets the muffin.
Luc: Ok
*Rachel and Luc start kicking each other*
*Luc picks up Rachel*
Rachel: Darn power training classes.
Me: ahahaha
I probably know what he said in French. : ]
I had interviews tonight with both Anarbor and Breathe Carolina. Fantastic bands, and even nicer guys. They were seriously some of the nicest dudes I’ve interviewed, ever. I hope they keep getting more success and I will surely be watching their careers.
Flying to South Dakota tomorrow… airplanes, blah. But snow, yay.
I contend that...
Facebook in class is really not bad. Firstly, it gets me to GO to class. Case in point- I was going to skip class today, and I was actually doing quite well in justifying it logically, but Amber said that she just goes to class and sits on facebook. Now, she does this because her classes take attendance (mine do not), but I decided to go to class and bring my laptop. So here I am. I’m not...
UPS
UPS is worthless. It acts like my dorm just doesn’t exist. Like it’s not a fucking huge apartment building and also part of a huge college.
French gives me a headache.
The Honors computer lab is kind of quiet and wierd… I feel like my fast/loud typing pisses people off…
I’m going to South Dakota next Friday.
There is an “inflatable party” at this frat...

A biology graduate teaching my lab for today just promoted abstinance as what everyone should do to not get pregnant and that oral contraceptives are not definite, but your cycle is.
1. My mom’s mom had seven kids on the “rythum cycle”.
2. I’m in college, at a liberal arts school. Why am I getting promoted to about abstinance?
Take back all those words you said.
I haven’t posted in here in so long. Almost two months! And I was doing so well. I don’t know who reads this anymore anyway, so I’ll just ramble. This weekend I was planning on being really studious and getting work done, but then Adam, Dari and Danny came up from UGA so we went out to some frats on Halloween. It was my first experience at a frat party, and it was pretty good....

Seems like you've done this before.
I feel like I’m behind in classes, but really it’s just that my classes don’t have any work so I have nothing to really do OR be late on.
Today my Biology teacher tested on stuff he hadn’t really gone over. It was really exciting. “Except” questions can just… die. Really.
I haven’t gone to any shows since I’ve been here. I need to but I...

We all know art is hard.
OMG AIRPORTS ARE SO BORING AND SHOULD TELL YOU IF THE LINES ARE LONG OR NOT SO YOU CAN NOT GET THERE TWO HOURS EARLY AND THEN HAVE TO SIT AND WAIT.
ONLY TO SIT ON A PLANE FOR THREE HOURS.

It was the look on your face when I called out...
This week was pretty interesting, with classes and basically “feeling out” my new school. I really enjoy my courses, for the most part, and as well the teachers that inevitably come with them. My biology lecture proved to be more or less useless, with the teacher basically reading off of his powerpoint that I could just as easily download off of his website and save myself from waking...
Are you willing, well...
I’m sitting in the lobby thing of the student center at GSU. I never really thought I’d get here, and it stilll feels kind of odd. I don’t feel like a real student. I feel like I’m trespassing, or something. I don’t know how to explain it, but I suppose this feeling will go away. I had my biology lab this morning, every Monday at eight am. It was okay. I like the...

Moving into my dorm tomorrow. Suddenly, I’m really not sure how I feel about all of this. I try to think of it as jumping in the deep end of a pool first, as opposed to walking in slowly through the shallow end.
at least you still get orientation and stuff, right? :)
Nope, I went to that in July. Move in tomorrow, a meeting for people with scholarships/get my laptop...

I’m still at my dad’s house, and really it’s pretty peaceful. My dad’s house is really nice and well maintained, and more than not I’m getting used to having to be a neat freak. I don’t like it, but it’s not impossible. I’ve received all of my books for college now except for my history book, which hasn’t even been shipped yet. It might not...

I really have no idea what I want to do in college. I’m waiting for some sort of breakthrough or epiphany.
just figure out what you’re passionate about :) use first year as a testing ground to take a variety of things that you think you might like, and maybe even some things you don’t think you’d like; you might be surprised.
Ah sure this makes sense, and...
So stop pretending.
I’ve been at my dad’s house for a couple days now, just hanging out mostly and getting little things done I suppose. I have to print out some stuff for school to get filled out but mostly I’m ready to move in and for classes to start. It’s relatively boring here, actually. I’d imagine that relaxing in a nice little gated community, near a beach, with a pool and tennis...

I think this staying up is exactly what I need.
The past few weeks have been good. I think I updated a week ago whenever I got my (tentative) schedule. I’ve mostly just been hanging out at Lyndell’s house, getting stuff done little by little every day. I’ve been studying up on my French skills and I need to read up on these psychology books. I got my Honors Environmental Psychology book today. It’s really small, but I...

I’m living at Lyndell’s house through July. It’s pretty fun really, I’ve always felt kind of at-home here, ‘cause I used to live here basically, in like ninth and tenth grade. My skin is...
Don't forget to think about me and I won't forget...
Being in Conyers feels rather odd, though maybe it’s not Conyers so much as ‘living’ at Lyndell’s house. Don’t get me wrong, I love Lyndell, (gotta say that cause I know she reads it…. olololo jkjk) and her family always makes me feel welcome, but not having a home here feels different. It’s cool though because I’d rather live with Lyndell’s...
The warm nights will stay beside me no matter...
So I arrived in Conyers, though barely. Twenty two hour drives are bad ideas when you’re trying to make it in one trip… and with only one driver. I arrived pale and listless, and quickly went to sleep, though only for about four hours. Slept about an hour the next night, and woke up today for Warped Tour. Nothing especially exciting happened. I didn’t do interviews so I got to...
Where were you when I needed you most?
I’m making this post from Zach’s computer in Watertown, South Dakota. I’ve been here for almost three weeks now; it feels like it’s been about three days, like I should be here for a few more months.
The drive up here was ridiculous, but considering we stopped to take a forty-five minute break somewhere in Missouri, we made good time. It was a mostly uneventful drive, save...

I’ve never really had a summer like this before, and yet it makes sense because I’ve never been in this position before. Being out of high school, it doesn’t really feel different, so much as everyone is acting different. We’re all grown up now. It’s hard for me to take, and I think that’s because I’ve had the same close friends since middle school. I...

Say hello to the girl that I am.
Graduation. There’s not a whole lot I can say about that, really. It was really interesting and sad and happy and confusing and awesome and stressful and tiring and necessary. I’m so fucking tired right now.
As a matter of fact, I was probably waiting by the...
Later, I am going to update this on how as a female, I have this virus in me where I say simple things in the most hostile of ways. Why we do this, I don’t really know, and I put a lot of effort into not ‘acting like a girl’. Sometimes, though, it happens. This is basically a placemarker to let me know I need to write this damn post.
Up or down, ups and downs. Don't pretend you've...
Life has been really crazy lately. I wish I found more time to write in this, and more things to say as well. A lot is happening, really. Maybe I can’t form words to explain it or I can’t remember it all when I go to post, but still, it’s happening. I’m graduating in one week- less than one week, if we’re counting hours. My car is getting fixed this week, with my dad...
Think of all the things we put him through, in the...
Drank too much last night, got really sick today. Drinking for emotional reasons isn’t really all that intelligent, and I have more problems today because of it. Sigh. :[
Take a step back, you know I'm there.
Sixteen days from now I will officially be out of highschool. May 24th. I really need to start packing, or at least throwing things away. Blah.
alcohol and bandages will soon follow this mess
Oh gosh, the past few days have been crazy. I feel like so many things are going so well, but at the expense of so many other things going terribly. It doesn’t bother me so much, I suppose it’s just interesting to sit back and look at. A lot of it I don’t have any control over, and I just have to remember that. I have only two more weeks left of highschool, and my graduation is...
hey brittany, where is your engagement ring?
So DECA ICDC was fun, I don’t really know how to sum it up. Brittany and another girl named Hillary, (not my sister) were in the hotel room with me. Brittany is really cool, and we get along pretty well. Hillary is really quiet, and when she did talk, it was generally odd or something I didn’t agree with. Oh well, I suppose there are always going to be people like that. I didn’t...
You're no good at lying and I'm no good at...
I need a constant in my life. Just one, that I can count on every single day, and know I can count on it no matter what. That’s really all I need. DECA ICDC was fun. I’ll have to make a post on it later. Today sucks so far, not unlike yesterday. Two finals tomorrow. What am I doing?

So how is this for a story:: Yesterday when I got home from work, I decided to go to sleep since I knew that Eric would call me whenever he was drinking last night, and it’d probably be sometime early in the morning. Well, I woke up around midnight and kind of read my Psychology book and watched a movie. I was texting Zach, his roommate, a lot of the time, too. About six am, I check my cell...
