.::Life of a Gem::.


Once I move home I will start adding poetry here. But for now....


I am a 20 year-old female living in Ohio and taking college classes at IU for a Bachelor's of Science in Nursing. I attended BG for 2 years, experienced living in the dorms and living in an apartment. While at BG I was on the hall council and joined Kappa Delta Soroity. I am expected to graduate sometime NEVER! I have a boyfriend of 3 and a half years. I'm an only child, a chinchilla owner, a dog owner, and spoiled by everyone. I love fashion, reading, swimming, horseback riding, traveling, making hemp necklaces, and being with my family. I hate people who are fake, don't respect other people, people who live in the past, and usually Tuco!



I'm letting Danny and Tuco add their creative journaling in here too. Be prepared to get some journaling action from them!! SOMETIME!




I want to show love to all my friends and family who made me who I am today. Also, some of the KD girls who were there for me and continue to be, thank you so much! Danny, you know you'll always have my heart. Ha, Tuco, Ha...You're the greatest, I know I don't tell you that enough.

Sitting amongst the mess...

Packing...packing...packing.  I'm finally packed, but Danny is not.  I'm in his room right now, sitting amongst the mess, in dismay at how many belongings he actually has.  I'm ready for .:V:.A:.C:.A:.T:.I:.O:.N:.  Am I ready to start up classes again?  No, but I will be when vacation and fair are over.  I wish that Danny was packed so that we could spend some "quality" time together.  I've been going over to my apartment all week packing up all my stuff so Chi-Chi is finally used to people again, but I think she knows that we're moving again.  She's going to stay at mamaw's house.  I'm kinda scared about her staying there because Mamaw smokes like a fiend and Chi-Chi is not used to that.  My papasan chair is in my room, thanks to *T*U*C*O*!! 
  The white white walls in this room are killing my thinking process.  I can't concentrate because Mike is back and he's blabbering on the phone...hehe...Danny is outside helping Allison figure out how her car works...and me, well i'm just sitting here in the trash heap trying to write a journal entry and not really succeeding at it.

Start Journaling already!!!

Okay, so now that both Danny and Tuco have decided to share this blog with me I think that they should start writing in here and adding their own flare to this page!!  I've given both of them full permission to play around on here so I think that they should get started!!  I wrapped change today and have yet to do anything but that.  Tuco is coming up today, get excited!!!!  I don't know what we're going to do while he is here, but I do know that we're going to get a papasan chair... HA!!!  I'm not indecisive about that!  I haven't talked to my mom today which is strange cause I usually talk to her at least once a day.  Well, I'm off to fold the laundry and roll up some more change.

Must Get Phil Done....

This is my last philosophy paper that is due this semester and I must get it done!!  I cannot focus!  I want to get at least a 23/25 on this paper.  Also, news to tell everyone... Tuco is coming up this weekend... I'm excited, I miss the boy, I really do.  For all of you reading this that think that I hate Tuco, I do not.  I just get angry at him sometimes, that's all...  :D  So anyway, he's going to come up and I'm going to get my papasan chair, I think.  I really hope they have them on sale and have the one I want.  I want to spend all weekend in the swimming pool too!  I haven't really been swimming a lot this summer.  Danny and I go at night sometimes when I get off work cause that is really the only time that we have to go swimming.  Well, right now I'm checking out some thing on the net with my co-worker so I'm gonna write later.

Blah Day...

Today feels like a blah day so far.  I feel so tired and achy.  I was up on and off last night because the people below Danny's apartment were partying and playing with their dog.  They were so loud.  Danny passed out around 10:30 last night after he decided to drink almost half a fifth of Jack.  What a craaazy boy!!  Needless to say, he didn't feel so great this morning.  He was passed out, snoring last night.  I'm at work right now wishing I was still in bed.  I do believe I'm going to go take a nap at 2p when I get off work, only to come back here at 5p.  Ugh!  How much more of this work stuff can I handle?  That is what I want to know. 
My supper last night turned out pretty well, I think.  I decided to sautee mushrooms, red peppers, chicken, onions, peas, and garlic.  The I made tortellini with cheese in them and put red sauce or white sauce on it then veggies over it served with garlic cheese bread and spaghetti squash.  I baked a german chocolate cake with pecan coconut icing and Danny didn't eat any of it.  That kinda made me mad because I did put a lot of effort into that stoooopid cake! 
      I'm depressed right now because my papason chair is on sale right now until August 16th, but I can't go get one because we're going on vacation and I don't have time to go to Dayton and pick one up!!!!  I'm so angry, I don't want to pay full price for one.  They're on sale right now for $99.  That price is cushion and frame.  Usually they're about $170.  I've been wanting one forever and yes, it's my luck that they would go on sale when I can't go get one!!!!!  I thought about asking Tuco if he would go get one for me and I would pay him back, but I don't want to hassle him and I don't think he would want to go there by himself... ugh... what is a girl to do??

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

                                     HAPPY BIRTHDAY DANNY!!!  21!!!  HOORAY!! 


  That is my mission today, to cook a birthday cake and dinner.  I want to fix something Italian, but as of now I do not know what I'm going to fix.  I suppose I'll just head to the store and find something.  I have a little something in mind, but I'm not as good of a cook as Danny.  I can bake, man can I bake, but when it comes to gourmet cooking anything I basically suck!!!  But I really want to try.  Danny made me my birthday dinner even though I told him specifically what I wanted.  He couldn't tell me one thing that he really wanted, he just said, "Italian".  That's a real big help to the non-cook here, uh-huh.  
      I really don't feel like doing anything today.  I know that Summer is dwindling down and I know that I've basically wasted it away doing nothing, but I can't stop.  It's an addiction, laziness.  Right now I am just looking forward to vacation then who knows what I'll have to look forward to once that is over. 
      I'm dreading moving all my stuff too.  I don't want to pack it all up.  I suppose I will help Danny pack his stuff up this weekend then maybe start on my stuff.  I need to go to my apartment today and check on the Chi-Chi (my chinchilla).  I feel bad for her cause I haven't been playing with her like I usually do, but life is busy right now.  I picked up a lot of extra hours at work and it's especially hard to make myself go to that icky apartment.  I'm glad that is almost over.  I hated it there.  It was so blah.  I should've never told Amber I was going to live there.  It was a mistake.  I could've lived in Sterling and been a much more content person.  So basically I am living in Sterling now because there is nothing at my apartment cause she moved out early.  Okay, enough ranting for one day, I think.  I may be back later.  :D

Annoying...

It seems as though my mother and father are both coming up to help me move out of my apartment to my house and help Danny move his stuff to his house before we go on vacation.  Initially it was just going to be my grandma and my mom, but now my dad has decided to take off work (which I didn't understand what the big deal was in the first place, he owns his own business).  So it looks as though they will be helping me.  I cannot wait to move home, but I can wait on the other hand to unpack my stuff.  That is what is going to be annoying, unpacking all my shit.  I'm going to have a GARAGE SALE on Labor Day weekend to sell all my stuff that I do not need anymore as I will never be staying in a dorm room EVER again!!!!!!!  My chinchilla will be happy to have a permanent home instead of moving from place to place like an illeagal imigrant.  I have to leave her at my g-ma's house when we go on vacation.  If you don't know where I'm going, I'm going to the Jersey shore with my mom and Danny for a whole week... Pray that it doesn't rain!!!  I cannot wait.  We're also going to head into the City for a day to hang out...how fun!!!!  I redid my room so it is all ready for me to move back in to it.  It doesn't look that different, but it does if you live in it I suppose.  I'm hoping once I move home I can spend a considerable amount of time with my bestest friend Tuco.  He lives quite close to my house so there is no excuse I suppose..hehehe...I know it's going to be weird not being with Danny every day, but the future when I will be with him every day is not very far away and that is what keeps me going in the direction that I am heading now!!  So, right now I would say that even though I'm going to be two and a half hours away from my soul mate I will survive because I have the future.

At Work

    Well, as usual I'm very bored at work.  That is usually when I start doing all these things to occupy my time.  I'm working factline which basically means I answer a phone all day, "Hello, factline".  Tomorrow is Danny's 21st b-day!!  How exciting.  I don't know what we're going to do and I don't really have anything planned to do for him except bake a cake.  I got him some spiffy boring gifts because we're going on vacation and I didn't want to spend a lot of money so we would have more for vacation mad money.  Did I mention that all it does here lately is rain?  Really, I never thought I would be so sick of rain.  This summer has been pretty lame.  I am moving home in one and a half weeks.  Right now I am taking classes at BG.  When I am done here on Aug. 8th I am moving home and attending IU.  I really don't know how I'm going to hold up living at home, but it's well worth a try. 
   
     By the way this is my new favorite show!!  :)  I am obsessed with Queer Eye for the Straight Guy!!!  The Fab Five are great!!!! I suggest that you watch it.  It's on Bravo on Tuesday nite's at 10p.  There is a slight conflict with Real World, but c'mon you can flip back and forth!!!!
