I feel like posting about my day here:
Went to the beach today...Had a lot of fun, finally got to see the ocean...(I've only been here a week). I know I should have expected it, but DAMN that's some salty water....It made my eyes and throat burn.... sweatdrop I suppose I'll get used to it. And boy did I BURN......my shoulders and back are a lovely shade of lobster.... xp
So that's relatively unimportant...but on the way back from the beach, the police and fire department were blocking off the street...we barely squeaked through the barricades they were setting up. Looking out the window, we saw what the big to-do was all about. Several stories up on the Marriotte, hanging off the side of the balcony, leaning over, hair flying in the wind....there was a Jumper.
And seeing that totally made me rethink my life.
I mean, a lot of people complain about 'silly' things. I do the same thing. In fact, last night's argument here in the Sallies just seems laughable now. But what could have happened to drive this person so far that they would dangle themselves off the edge of a very tall building? And I don't know what happened to that person, but I do know that she (or he) made my troubles suddenly seem so insignificant.
I don't know what became of the Jumper. For all I know, s/he's still hanging from the side of the Marriotte, contemplating going through with it. I don't know what pushed him or her off the edge...but I sincerely hope that they come back from that edge....

Merf, seems a lot of people have been trouble lately, sorry to hear that ^^;
Anyway, I guess it's time I told you all. Some, maybe most of you, know this already. But This tuesday, July 18th, I am moving from home to start college. This means I MAY be away from the internet for an unknown amount of time. I may be able to get on while I'm at school, but at my apartment I do not know how soon since we'll have to pay for cable/internet/etc. ourselves so I have to figure out how much it'll be and get it set up. So it could be a couple weeks to a few months, who knows. But, I'll try to get on while I'm at school every once in a while until then to keep you posted about my school days ^_^ If anyone wants to know, anyway.
I've been chatting with my roomate on the phone for a while now, her name is Megan, she seems like a nice girl and that we'll get along great, so that's good. But, she moved in yesterday (I coulnd't cause my party was yesterday. Whoo, made out with about 900 bucks man. Over 50 people came <3) and it turns out when she got to the place we'll be living the apartment was filthy as hell, cockroach infested, and the stairs going up (we're on 3rd floor) were tiny and hard to get stuff up and she couldn't get the couch up. She said they cleaned up best they could and that someone should be going in tomorrow to spray and stuff ot get rid of the roaches, so hopefully by the time I Move in tuesday it'll be okay, but I'm so worried sick about it crying
I got my laptop today, after waiting so long. It's a sony vaio, so it's nice and thin and light, which is awsome,I guess xD It plays my anime and can connect to wireless or any type of internet, so I'm happy with it xD and with 1 gb of ram, I can't complain <3
And wow, I think this post was totally random xD It was good-bad-good-okay-whatever-blahigiveupgoodnight.
haha...Well, I'm sorry everyones having trouble. I hope I won't be away from the comp TOO much cause I love you all so much and would be heartbroken to stay away to long crying

yay, gaia finally letting me post xD
Just wanted to post about how the situation was resolved. As it turns out they were only WATER BUGS. (my college coordinator guy called me today and let me know what was up) so thats' a lot better then roaches, if you ask me. They were supposedly spraying it today, so lit should be okay for me to move in tomorrow ^^
Oh, and I love this laptop xD Not SUPER UBER AMAZING but it's still awsome. Plus, if my friend can run WoW on his 64 MB graphics, 512 MB Ram, and 1.4 GHz processer, I can easily run it on my 128 MB graphics, 1 GB ram, and 1.8 Processer xD As well as most the other online games I play from time to time, w00t
And I guess that's it. Most hte packing and putting stuff up to move it out tomorrow is done. And tonight is the last night I'll be on the internet for a while, probably.

Just letting everyone know I'm officially back, hehe. <^^> And to answer the question that people keep asking me, here's how the trip went...
Well, when I got there, my stomach was upset. And it got worse. I was in serious pain for several hours that afternoon. So yeah, it wasn't off to a good start. But eventually the pain subsided. And that night we all watched a Jeff Dunham DVD. That guy is awesome. XD
The next day we went to an extremely cool international food market near Atlanta. It was about the third or fourth time I've been there, but I always love it. They've got all KINDS of cool, strange things there, and we always eat in the buffet resteraunt at the one end. They change the menu all the time, and it's always reeeeaaaallllyyyy good. Mrrr, I love it. <@-@>
The rest of the trip was mostly spent chatting and visiting with relatives. My grandad and brother played their guitars a lot, which was nice to listen to. :B And we came home yesterday. The drive was really pretty in several areas. Unfortunately we accidentally left some stuff from the international market at my grandparents' house. >< Like some cherry butter, special black corn chips, and some kind of black bean dip I was really looking forward to trying. >: Nyeh. But all in all, the trip was ok.
@Ed: *hugglenuzzles* Meep, okies. I'll try and remember that in the future. ^^; By the way, I love your siggy pic. Ish so adorable! <3
