10 MORE Things I Hate (or Love) About You

Stolen from Ryan...I posted this already on my MySpace, but wanted to write about more people so I'm posting it again!


You chose 10 people, and tell how you feel about them. if youre easily offended, dont read this. remember not to assume it is you.

1. we used to hang out a lot and we always had so much fun. i really miss hanging out with you and i feel like i barely know what's going on in your life anymore. i hope we can start hanging out again. you are an awesome person!!

2. you are an amazing guesser! haha...but seriously you are an amazing person and an amazing friend. i miss you all the time since i barely ever see you...i hope i see you soon and we can get to know each other better!!

3. cheesecake and toilets are some of our favorite things, and you are one of my favorite people. i love our phone conversations and whenever we hang out we have a blast. so many laughs and random moments. i can't wait for more!!

4. there always seems to be stupid people and creepy lizard things, but we still remain friends and i love it, haha!! you are amazing and i hope to get to know you more!!

5. whenever i'd see you, we'd talk a lot. now we barely talk and that sucks. i hope we can get back to that place and become friends, but right now that seems impossible for a few reasons...but i still love you to death

6. you call me schmexy even though i'm not. you are amazing even though you can't admit it. and theres not much else to say except that i love you and you are such a good friend! make sure theres room for me to crash in your new apartment in jersey! hahah

7. dunkin donuts and pacts always remind me of how lucky i am to have you in my life. you are amazing and i love you to death!!

8. i knew you were capable of a lot of bad stuff, but i had no idea just how bad. you were extremely lucky and took it all for granted, saying things no one should ever say. i hope you get your karma soon.

9. you barely know my name, but you always make me laugh. you're an awesome person and i hope i can get to know you better!!

10. theres a lot of people i want to write this about, so this applies to all of them. thank you for being such good friends to me and i love you all to death. : )


Well, there you have it. Do you know which one you are? : )

Words can't describe

It's almost been a year since my life changed. June 15th, 2006. Just a few more weeks until I see how much of a difference a year can make. I've met so many amazing people.

We got the letters we wrote to ourselves last year in the mail a few days ago. It was pretty funny, actually. Seeing what people wrote to me and what I wrote to myself. It kind of made me realize that a year really changes everything.

To all the people who have changed my life this past year, thank you::
Becky, Ivy, Morgan, Ashley, Lissa, Mandy, Chris, Lisa, Dana, Emilee, Shari, Rachel, Kat, Steph, Amelia, Joyce, Alyson, Alison, Bri, Nicolette, Taylor, Amanda, Becca, Barbie, Krystle, Ana, Ariel, Jana, Aubrey, Brandi, Krista, Michelle, Cyndal, Danielle, Desiree, Shari, Gabby, Lauren, Jessica, Amy, Larry, Kelley, Mighty Mouse Manda, Sarah, Allison, Paula, Kevin, Joe, Nick, John, Garbo, Phil, George, Tim, and countless others, you know who you are. Thank you for everything. For showing me what life is all about. I'm so blessed to have met you all this past year! And to all of my friends who I've known longer than those listed before, you know who you are as well. I love you guys! Thank you so much for sticking with me!

This summer is truly going to be amazing. Los Angeles with my best friend, traveling across the country with some of my other best friends, seeing three kids who have more talent than anyone I've met in my entire life, and so much more. I cannot wait to see what's in store.

June 17th is probably when reality is really going to set in that it's been almost a year (by then, a year and two days).

For those who don't know what happened on June 15th, let me fill you in. I had two tickets to the Aly & AJ concert at the Kirby Center in Wilkes-Barre. I won a contest on 98.5 KRZ to go meet Aly & AJ, so I wasn't sure if I really was dying to go to the concert. I decided I'd go, and when I was walking down the street, I met Kevin and then Nick. I had heard about the Jonas Brothers the summer before, maybe even earlier, but this was the first I would be seeing them. Little did I know at the time that seeing them was the best thing that could have happened to me. That day was the start of lots of travel, many concerts, meeting some amazing people who are now some of my best friends, and realizing what life is all about. I don't know where I'd be today if I decided not to go to that concert. I'm pretty glad I did. I'd rather not find out where I'd be if I hadn't gone.

Then:::


Now:::


Anyways, life is amazing right now. Today I couldn't stop smiling.

I've gotta say, I'm pretty excited for the next year. Maybe I'll write my own letter to myself.

Well, just an update on my life for ya. : )

It’s the friends you can call up at four a.m. that matter

Or, the friends that you can talk to for three hours.
The friends that will LISTEN to you talk about things you've been needing to talk about.
The friends who understand and don't judge.
The friends you can have conversations with that are made up of more than just "haha" and "blah blah".

Today was honestly something I've needed. I didn't realize how much it was all weighing me down until I finally let it out.

I feel like a new person and I haven't felt this free in a long time.

So, to that person who listened, understood, and was an amazing friend, thank you.

And to all of my other friends who have always been there for me, sticking with me through everything (you know who you are), thank you as well.

Tomorrow, I think I'll have to listen to "Innocence" by Avril Lavigne. "Waking up I see that everything is okay, the first time in my life and now it's so great. Slowing down I look around and I am so amazed, I think about the little things that make life great. I wouldn't change a thing about it, this is the best feeling."

This summer will truly be amazing.

To all of my friends I haven't seen in a while and to all those who I see pretty often but still not often enough - I cannot wait to see you and share this summer with you!

Well, I'm beat.

"How many minutes? How many miles? How much time till I see you again?"

Insanity

I realized that this summer is going to be just that...insane. I couldn't be more excited!! Getting to travel the country to see three awesome guys with all of my best friends? I'm so blessed to be able to do this!!

I should know soon which ones I'm going to and which ones I'm not, so those will be posted on here and on my MySpace.

Anyways, I'm really missing all my faves. : (

Sunday I get to see Mandy, Dana, Emilee, and Shari...I'm so excited! Then doing something with Mandy after and maybe Dana, Emilee, and Shari as well.

I'm pretty excited that this school year is almost over. I can't believe I'm going to be a junior! SO WEIRD!

It's also almost been a year since I met those three kids. The year has gone so fast and it has been the best year of my life! That day truly did change my life and my outlook on everything is so different. I'm a much more happy and positive person. I am still amazed at how far those three have come since that day! I'm so blessed to have met such amazing people. I've had so many great experiences that I wouldn't trade for anything.

And to all of my friends...I MISS YOU GUYS! We're going to dominate this summer! Can't wait to share it with you guys!

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes

Today - well, actually last night - I realized how much everything and everyone is changing.

Well not everything and not everyone, but a lot of things and people are changing.

Some people are changing for the better, but some people are changing for the worse. That really bums me out. People I never expected to change and never wanted to change are the ones changing. It's not a good feeling. Feeling like your friends are starting to hang out with the wrong crowd, trusting the wrong people. Definitely not something to smile about.

On a brighter note, I've become a lot closer with a lot of people. I've even become closer with some of my best friends who I was already insanely close with. I'm pretty happy with the people in my life at the moment. I hope they don't all change.

Last night, as Paula knows, something happened. Something that could potentially be amazing. Whether or not it'll actually happen, I don't know, but I'm hoping it will.

Anyways, in the midst of everything changing, I've realized that for the first time in a while, I'm truly happy again. It's been a while since I've felt like this.

So to all my friends (you know who you are), thank you. I love you all.



Yeah, I'm pretty lucky to have such amazing friends..

Sappy sappy sappy as always :) You know you love it ;)

The World Has Turned Emo

Today I've realized something.

The whole world has turned emo. Everyone seems sad or seems to hate their life.

I've got news for you...people have it worse. You're not alone when you think you're the only person upset. Everyone has bad days, bad weeks, even bad months. Trust me, April was a pretty bad month for me. Now things are looking up.

Church last Sunday was amazing. I think it was exactly what I needed to hear. I'm pretty happy that I was able to go. I wish I could go back again this Sunday, but a ride would be needed for that. :( Bummer...I'd love to see my faves and hang out in tunnels. Good times.

Another thing I've realized? I have the most amazing friends in the world. Becky, Morgan, Ashley, Ivy, Chris, Lisa, Krista, Krystle, and many more. I couldn't live without them.

Sappy, sappy, sappy. I know, I'm a sappy person.

Anyways...quit all the emo business. Life's good...Even if it takes a while for you to realize, you'll realize it.


Love them ^^^ I steal pictures from Dana :)

P.S. I have a question...Are you really a ninja?
