I Promise

Tuesday, February 16th, 2010

I promise things will get better. You’ve had a really rough couple of months that’s all. I know it’s hard to deal with the bad things life throws at you especially when they’re thrown at you so quickly, but even when it seems like nothing good will happen in your life again, don’t give up hope. It’s not just you. Bad things happen to everyone an we all have to deal with them. It’s not me or anything we do that can distract you from what’s happening in your life and make you feel better. Only you can believe that even though the things happening now are bringing you down, tomorrow will be a better day. You need to wake up every morning with a positive attitude. Believe in yourself and focus on the things that make you happy throughout the day and not the things that bring you down. Don’t give up on yourself. You have a great life ahead of you and you need to realize that. I want nothing more than for you to be happy, and one day, maybe even tomorrow, you will be. I promise.

Snow in Alpharetta

Thursday, January 7th, 2010

Well that’s something you don’t hear every day. For the past week there has been a lot of talk around school about a possible snow day on Friday. Finally today, well I suppose yesterday now, the snow actually started coming down. The chances of the snow actually sticking were looking slim, but somehow it ended up sticking as night came. There’s just enough snow on the roads now for Fulton County to declare that it is “unsafe for travel.” What does that mean? Snow day! So what are my plans for the snow day? I would really love to go see Lindsay, but I’m not sure how I could get there. The roads are pretty frozen over. Hopefully something works out though. I’ll probably post pictures of the snow when I can take some when it’s light out. Oh yeah, ROLL TIDE!!

And It Happens Again

imissyou

I feel as if this has happened before. You gave me hope. Hope that I had finally found the right one. Hope that I wouldn’t have to stress over these things anymore. I suppose I was wrong. You leave me here with nothing but the smell of you on my clothes. The thoughts of how things could’ve been. The worry of if it was something I did to you. You say that its you and not me. That you just don’t think that you could bear hurting anyone else. You say you like me yet you won’t give me a chance. You won’t give me a chance to prove that you don’t have to be that way. I can say that I’m done with caring but I won’t be able to stop. This same thing is going to keep happening to me just as it has for the past 2 years. I just want things to be how they were when we were together.

Missed Opporunity

walking

Today before I got out of the car to head toward the gates of hell (school), I saw this girl standing by one of the buildings calling someone. I had no idea who she was but she was the most beautiful girl I have ever seen. I wanted to go up and say something to her but she heading into the building before I got out of the car. I got out and decided to see if I could catch up with her. I walked into the school maybe 10 seconds after her and she was nowhere in sight. I realized that I may not ever see this girl again in a school of 2500 people. I’m kinda depressed now.

Southern Polytechnic

spsu

So today I went to visit SPSU. It was raining and looked really grim. Wasn’t a good day to take a tour but it was a half day so it made more sense. My first thought was that it looked more like a prison than a school. Then we went to the administration office to sign in for the tour. The office smelled like an old person’s apartment. That repulsed me a bit. The beginning of the tour was boring. The guy just talked about the school and what it offered and junk. Then we went around the student center. It wasn’t as nice as the one at Alabama but I couldn’t expect much from such a small school. After we saw all the academic buildings we went to the dorms to see one. It was tiny. Very, very tiny. I guess I was just used to seeing Jen’s amazingly large dorm. Then there was the community bathrooms. This doesn’t fly with me. I like my privacy in the bathroom. I don’t like the fact that I would have to share.

So after the tour Stephan was all bummed cause he couldn’t make it in without the college prep diploma. He has to get career tech cause he doesn’t have time to take at least 2 years of a foreign language. I’m graduating with the dual diploma in engineering so I’ll be able to get in easily. Stephan decided to call the recruiter to see what his options were. The recruiter told him that Georgia Highlands College shares the same campus so he would still be able to room with me if he went there instead. GHC is a 2 year college that accepts applicants with the career tech diploma so he would be able to get in. So looks like that’s where we’re going to end up going at the moment but who knows, things could change.

And Today Was a Day Just Like Any Other

Neretva

I woke up this morning at 7:49 realizing that I fell asleep on my couch on accident. I ignored the fact that there was a bed 10 feet away from me and fell back asleep on the couch. I woke up again at 10:45 and craved donuts. Some angry woman honked at me as I turned into the Dunkin Donuts parking lot, but I didn’t think that I did anything wrong. She got out of her car and tried as hard as she could to ignore me only to realize we were gonna be in the same place. She avoided eye contact with me for as long as possible but she couldn’t pull that off forever. She ended up looking over at me and then she put the most forced smile that I have ever seen on her face. When the register guy told her that they didn’t have anymore of the bagels she wanted she stormed out the door and sped away. I shrugged it off and ordered my donuts and Tropicana Coolatta. The rest of the day was spent in my room. Stephan really needs to hurry up and get ungrounded.

Half Day

Wednesday, September 16th, 2009

So today was a half day. The most pointless yet fun day of school each month. So after school we had a Big Brothers/Big Sisters CORE team meeting. Basically it was about how we need to change the club name. Some ideas were Raider Buddies, Big Buddies, and Raider Mentors. Comment on which one you like so I can see which ones best. After that Stephan and I were mad craving Taco Bell so we convinced my mom to drive us there. I got a bean burrito and 3 pintos & cheese. Was pretty good. Stephan got his laptop from his house and we decided to have a Counter Strike day. That was all cool until about 1 game in, Sydni told me that her and Abi could go to the mall. I was like hell yes and called my mom to see if she could be chauffeur. She quickly denied and I was like… crap. So I made Stephan call his mom and she also quickly denied the request. After 30 minutes of begging, Mom caved.

Chillen @northpointSo we got to the mall and waited in the Apple store. I checked out the new nanos and I have to admit that they are pretty nice. They felt a bit greasy though. Might have just been because a ton of people touch them. Then I played a nice game of air hockey on an iPod touch with Stephan until Abi and Sydni got there. Meeting Abi was cool. We all walked around the mall a couple times trying to find something to do. Stephan liked sitting way in the back of department stores on the floor. It was pretty fun so I don’t blame him. We found some benches and when I sat down Stephan shoved me off. Was total denial and I was quite unhappy. Abi laughed. We did some more walking and then Stephan and Sydni wanted their alone time so I set off on a search for Dr. Pepper with Abi. I had fun and we ended back up in the Apple store. We stayed there until they left.

So they left at like 6 and my dad wasn’t coming for at least another hour. Stephan and I chilled in the Apple store for a while. I checked the Bookface and did a little farmville til we got bored. We went to GameStop and talked about the PS3. We had only passed 20 minutes. We went to the Clear booth after that and talked to the sales guy named James Slaughter. Creepy last name huh? He was a cool dude. We’re pretty convinced that we want to get Clear now. Seems like a pretty convenient thing to have. Dad finally showed up after 45 minutes of watching Shaq vs. some guy on Hulu. Now I’m home, blogging. Was a pretty good day.
