The words of my boyfriend:
I wish I could bring you inside of my head sometimes. I want to show you how I see you, how beautiful you really are through my eyes.
I don't think you understand. You occupy my thoughts every second of the day. When I'm not with you, I'm thinking of ways to be with you, and when I am with you, I'm thinking of ways to make it last forever.

I was just reading the book called "2DO Before I Die" and it got me to thinking. It covers areas such as:
roots (spend the day with another generation, look up an old friend)
explore (live in italy for a year, roadtrip across the USA)
experiment (streak naked, wear high heels)
challenge (parachute from a plane, break a habit)
give (save a life, help someone in need)
learn (graduate from college, cook a meal you've never made before)
express ( get a tattoo, give a speech)
love (ask out a total stranger, share a fantasy)
work (change your career, take a new route to work)
legacy (bury treasure, continue a family tradition)
I want to do so much with my life. I've already covered a few things I read in the book so i am going to make my own personal list of things i've done and perhaps want to do.
ROOTS:
+I've been spending a lot of time when I do come home with my Papa. I really miss my grandma but I just want to say that I will never have to regret never getting to know her. I am so close to my grandparents and I will never take advantage of the time i have to spend with them.
+As sad as it is, facebook has actually got me into contact with friends from elementary school. I haven't met up with any of them yet but i know they're out there.
EXPLORE
+I live in a house with 4 other girls in kalamazoo
+Places I've been to outside of the US: london, france, germany, austria, switzerland, italy, amsterdam, canada, aruba
+Places I've been inside the US: 22 states
+In a year, I'm going to study abroad somewhere outside of the US and live there for a semester or 5 months
+In August of '04 I went down south with 2 bands that i'm good friends with. we never knew where we were going to stay the night and it was a lot of fun.
EXPERIMENT
+I've worn some pretty high heels
+Gone skinny dipping
CHALLENGE
+I'm growing my hair out which is something i've never done before. When I'm done growing it, i will donate 10 inches to locks of love.
+I went without a car for 5 months.
+I moved across the state
GIVE
+I've put on a couple shows to help benefit breast cancer and the hurricane relief fund. (they were a big deal to me even if they were small)
I really don't have much for this. I have never saved a life and I try my best to help friends in need but i don't think it works.
LEARN
+I'm graduating from college in a year and 1/2
+I can make eggs pretty good and grilled cheese
EXPRESS
+Got my lip pierced.
+Dyed my hair from blonde to very dark
LOVE
+i've given my heart to someone who didn't give me theirs in return
+I know who my true friends are and i would do anything for them
WORK
+i've had quite a few jobs
+i work at a radio station
LEGACY
Again, i don't have anything for this one. I've recently found out i'm not worth being a friend. I'm the friend that people fizzle out of the group and forget about so i can't really leave much of a legacy behind.
I understand this is a very long entry and i plan on adding to it when i think necessary. I know there's a lot of words and most people won't ever read this but that's ok, i wrote it for me anyway.

2005 in a nutshell.
// Car died at the end of october
// Took a leap and fell
// Heartache
// Hard drive crashed
// Locked keys in car while running while trying to tow it to saginaw
// Nursing home/hospital
// Towed car to shelby and offically donated it out of my life
2006 in a nutshell.
// Saddness
// Broken heart
God saw you getting tired
and a cure was not to be.
So He put His arms around you
and whispered, 'Come with Me.'
With tearful eyes we watched
and saw you pass away.
Although we loved you dearly,
We could not make you stay.
A golden heart stopped beating,
Hard working hands to rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us
He only takes the best.

| i am angry |
[10 Jul 2005|10:22am] |
People make me so mad. Why do they only think of themselves? NO one cares about what I think or what I have to do. they are lazy selfish jerks.
I hardly ever get to see my mom. She works crazy hours during the week at 3 different jobs. And when i say crazy i mean like 70 hours or so. She usually works 10 days in a row with an occasional day off, I never get to see her because i am on an opposite schedule. WHen she goes to work i'm still sleeping. then i get up and go to class. By the time she gets home from work I have already left to go to work and when I get home from work she's always sleeping. This schedule is never ending. I miss my mom. It's sad to miss someone who lives in the same house as you. You would think living under the same roof you would have no need to miss them. But i do. And in 3 weeks i'm moving. I haven't seen my mom much at all this summer.
Today mama g and myself had a date to go shopping. At 9 am my phone rings and it's my boss. The driver who is supposed to be opening has the flu and asked if i could work. I told him yes. I then quickly called him back to see if the driver who is closing would switch shifts with me because by the time i would get out of work all the shops would be closed. I also asked my boss to see if perhaps the one other driver available could work instead. My boss called the driver, he doesn't feel like working. And the other driver doesn't want to switch with me.
When I told my mom i had to be to work at 11 and won't be out until 7ish she was sad, I could tell. She understood though and said we would have our date some other time. SOME OTHER TIME? when? she works all the time this is a once in a lifetime (ok maybe not that exaggerated but once every couple months or so) opportunity to spend time with her. Once I move away I know I won't be coming home as often so as sad as it is I know dates like the one i was SUPPOSED to have today are going to be very rare and this makes for a sad Katie. I feel like I'm PMSing right now, but I'm not, I really am upset about this because I always think ahead of all the times I am not going to be spending with my mom because I am not going to be here.
I really wanted to quit when my boss told me about the other 2 jerks I work with. However; I could not do that to my boss. If he was a jerk I would do it in a heart beat. But him and another worker have done a lot for me. with giving me hours and making me [somewhat]sane while working there.
3 more weeks....

TODAY HAS not(according to neil) BEEN THE WEIRDEST DAY IN HISTORY OF WEIRDNESS
I don't even know where to begin with the weird that I have encountered today. so i shall start from the beginning: according to neil, I GUARANTEE YOU WILL not WANT TO READ THIS WHOLE THING
/./ today i made plans with auntie to go to her office in mt. clemens to do some financial aid paperwork and fax it out. So i wake up this morning at 10 and shower and get ready and meet her down town. she asks me where i want to go to lunch and if i have my fin aid stuff. GAAAAH i forgot my stuff at home because i was very sexcited to go out to lunch with auntie. silly me
/./ since i am a pizza delivery driver i need to keep my car in good condition. so me being the proper car owner i am, i go to get my oil changed. the guy tells me that it will be 24.99 so i say ok do it. he notices that my old "when you need your next oil change" sticker is stuck to the window so he goes and gets a razor blade and scrapes it off without a single scratch on the window (and he wasn't even looking as he got it off.) he then washes my windshield and rear window. he then comes up to me carrying a large cardboard display that has many car air freshners dangling from it and asks which one i would like. i notice that he has not washed any of the other cars' windows or taken the cardboard display up to any other cars in the place. i know i did not pay for special treatment because i said i only wanted an oil change. then he brings me my change and i notice on the bill it's actually 29.95 but yet he gave me a $3 coupon off. now i had no such coupon so he just made that up. he then gives me a piece of paper that says $5 off and on the back he signs it and says i get $5 off my next oil change.
I THEN GO TO WORK WHERE THE WEIRD PURSUES
/./ I am delivering to a house that has a barking dog outside just like i have a millon times. then freakin DOG BITES MY (k)ANKLE!
/./ A man and his dad come in. the man is about late 30s mid 40s and his dad is a grandpa. he sees only the 3 girls that are working. and says to me: "you guys have changed in here." i am now confused thinking, did we remodel? no. what is this man talking about. he then says: "I am going to have to come back more often because of all the pretty ladies working here now!"
/./ A man calls because his dumb girlfriend forgot their salad and apparently it is cottage inn's fault. this is how the conversation went:
man "you guys forgot to give my g/f the salad. what are you gonna do about it?"
me "well we can give you credit so next time you order we will deduct the price of the salad from your next order"
man "how 'bout you bring it here?"
me "where do you live? (he tells me) fine, we will deliver it to you"
/./ i get to the aparment complex to deliver mr. rude's salad. there are 2 men outside working on their truck. as i walk up the side walk i hear them saying something but i pretend not to hear and go inside. when i come out the 2 men tell me they love me. no... they really love me. then they ask me if they order a pizza will i be the one to deliver it to them. i tell them maybe i don't know. and they tell me they are going to order a pizza tonight.
/./ I then have a salad for dinner and spill greek dressing on my vag which stains and it looks like i peed my pants.
/./ I finally get away from my whack day of work and come home to relax. i get a text message on my phone from Lo Lo. it's a picture of a NAKED GUY
TODAY WAS WHACK
/./the end?/./

Ok today has been the best day and i think it is my duty to share all of the things that have happened to me
I woke up this morning and it was a beautiful day so i smiled all the way to my 1st class.
We sat around waiting for 20 minutes for the sub teacher to get the VCR and TV working for some video on intimate relationships that we had to watch. Well in this class the teacher gives us random attendence checks and today was one of them so that was awesome. Especially since i'm not going to class on thursday and we already had one this week so we probably won't have another.
I then went to my econ class where we got our exams back that we took last Thursday. The only thing we were doing in our class was going over the exam and i didn't even know my grade because it was posted online. So i left class early in eager-a-tion to check my grade online.
I find my grade. And i also figure out that I am getting a CB in that class and that's not including all the homework that i have gotten all my points for. This is great news to me because I thought that i was seriously failing Econ.
So as i check my grade for econ i then see that i have an e-mail from my accounting professor. CLASS TODAY WAS CANCELLED! This is amazing news because that was my last class of the day and i would've went to that class if i had not come home early from econ.
IT IS NOW MY WEEKEND.
I worked my toosh off at the rec for a bit.
I took a nap around 8. I had a dream that i got flowers. I wish it was for real.
I had to go to my business meeting at 9. Some crazy lady interviewed our group about Michael Jackson and it was ridiculous. She then took glamour shots of one of the guys in my group to put his pic in the paper.
On my way home I found a new, shiny quarter in the food tube.
What a great day. And it will only get better.

OK so this past 24 hours has been off DA HOOK! ok i'll start with last night to stay in some type of order on my events.
Last night/this morning at about 1:11 let's say. I have to poop. So like anyone that is like myself and poops, i go to the bathroom to do so. As i'm sitting there, Christy comes running into the bathroom and hans me my phone under the stall saying someone had to urgently talk to me. i'm like oh no it's my mom and something's happened. So i take a peek at the caller ID and see it's Erica. I say hello and on the other end i hear "This is Miss Cleo, is there a gentleman in your life?" and I go with it and say of course! and cleo replies with "Yeah, dat's da daddy." oh no who told you, Miss Cleo?? i'm sitting in the bathroom this whole time laughing hysterically so i'm thinking anyone who came in thought I was probably laughing at the huge poop i was taking.
So today I go to classes and what not and it seemed like every where i went someone held the door for me and flashed a smile, today was seriously a day out of a movie like Pleasantville.
After class today I met with Larry from the imagining department and he reminded me of my Uncle Eddie, and when we were done with our meeting he even helped me put my coat on...what a gentleman.
I also had a business meeting tonight. On the way home i wandered into the Africana Lounge. There must have been some sort of gathering going down in there because there was pizza and other refreshments just sitting out. So me, being the poor, hungry, meal planless college student that i am I grabbed up one of those large pizzas and 2 bags of chips and headed out like nobody's business. FREE PIZZA! SCORE!
I was talking to baby Lo Lo online and she told me that someone drunk dialed her house last night claiming to be my brother and her mom answered. now i know it wasn't Karl because he wouldn't even know the number to her house, though he has been known to drunk dial me at night but that's what happens when he turned 21 and it's me so it's ok. but my friend's parents? Lauren lives in vermont!
SO then i was stalking molly and watching her through the little peep hole by her desk and started dancing and fell to the floor. Then Sarah came in as i'm huddled in a corner and just looks at me and says "what the heck?" i can't even explain to her what was going on. sometimes i wonder about myself and the things i do.
This is getting to be the longest journal entry ever. I hope everyone read it anyways because, hey, I thought it was entertaining.
I fixed my computer. Now I don't have to highlight things to be able to read them because i am the most amazing person alive! and now people won't be mad at me when they use my computer.
Today was so good but I can't wait until this week is over because spring break here i come!!
ARUBA IN '05!!!!!
