    Howdy doody eveyone lol.... My class was cancelled today, so I thought I'd take the time to write alittle somethin somethin in the blog... As Jeramy says, spring break is sadly over... actually it's almost been a week since classes started again... wow time flies by like nothing... I'm so tired... Jeramy and I have only been allowed six hours of sleep every night, so my vertigo is really been getting to me, but we're hangin in there.... The next two months are going to go by sooo fast what with school, looking for an apartment, getting our kitties, Jeramy graduating, work, moving, and all that fun stuff.... This Christmas we had planned to go to Mexico, but it's looking like we're going to have to beg the big boss for those two weeks off... I hope it all works out because I think it would be a great experience for me to go to another country and meet alot of Jeramy's family down there (even though I don't speak spanish). Well, I guess since I have all of this time, I should go catch up on some homework before lunch.... Chow ya'll....

Jeramy: Hey everyone, were both back from spring break. It was great to finally be able to rest and sleep in without having to worry about getting to class on time. We really didn't do much as far as actually doing stuff for spring break. I mostly worked as did Melinda, with an occational visit to my parents or her parents house (place of work). just spending so quality time with each other, can never have too much of that :-). Now though were back in school and the stress game resumes. I've got to wake up at 8:00 am everyday now cuase of a floor hockey class I'm taking and I've got 4 pictures due by the 23rd, as well as my other photo class (digital multimedia), spanish, and IPC, and guitar class to worry about, but oh well, it'll all be worth it in the end; definently worth it. Later Ya'll

Spring Break!!!!

     Today is our last day of school for a whole week!!! That means that I can still do homework, but get some sleep at the same time!!!! I can't wait...( I hope everyone in my family gets better)... Today I took a Math test, and I just finished my research test online... I think I did okay on both, but I won't find out until after break.. I'm just happy to get some kind of break before the stress of finals... I hope all stays well in the world while I'm gone.. I won't be able to blog for a week either, because no one will buy me my own computer (JK) so I guess its bye bye till then, except for my mother who will see me on Thursday!!!

                                                                                                        Chow!

Today is like any ordinary day... Just got out af classs and I'm waiting for Jeramy to get out of his... Yesterday we forgot to pay rent, so we're going to do that after lunch... I think that I have an 80% average in everyclass so far for spring break... which is good, because after spring break, my big scoring things will come up, which should hieghten my grade to a high B or A for finals (crossing fingers)... I can't wait for next week... I'll finally get to rest my brain (even though I do have some assignments that I want to get done early)

     And mom.... That would be great if you guys could help. Dad is mainly the one I really need help from, cause we have alot of big furniture like dressers, entertainment center, big shelf, bed, couch and I don't think I'm tough enough to help Jeramy lift them or take them down all of our stairs.... no we haven't found an apartment yet, but we'll be looking as soon as possible in April...I hope everyone at home gets better. Can't wait to see you next Thursday!

    Well better go so I can catch Jeramy and eat lunch...



It's me

Jeramy: Hey everyone I've decided to put my frist entry into this blogg. It's been a busy day already. I came in at 8:00am to write a paper for my Interpersonal Comminications class. I finished it just in time to go get Melinda for her class. I'm glad I got it done, now Melinda gets to proof read it (God Bless her), she'll need the help to correct my stuff ;-). It's the week before Spring Break and I can't wait to sleep in and get some well deserved rest, clean house, and just chill. Releave some stress and get ready to put most of my focus on Photography and graduating, something else I can't wait for. It's crazy that it's March too, it feels like February just flew by, but March has 31 days so we'll see what happens.

A little time to spare...

Today is another day.... found out that renting a u hual for when Jeramy and I are going to move isn't going to be very costly at all.... The problem is going to be findin g a day when people will be available for helping us.... There's graduation weekend for Jeramy, but everyone will be celebrating Mother's Day... The weekend after that, Jeramy's brother graduates, so his parents will be busy with the barbeque for that...( course I don't even know if my family will want to help or not..PLEASE!!!!) Then i have to make sure my mother's not working on the weekend we move, or that my Dad isn't working on a saturday (if we move on a Saturday) It's not easy!!! I'd like to move as soon as we can after finals so that I can start working full time (more money for college!).. but, I can't figure a day before the end of May.. I hope I don't have to wait that long... hmmm..... School.. school... school... k gotta go...

Hooray!!!!

I love warm weather!!!

    I think it's neat to have an online journal to free all of the stress out of my mind and make everyone else have to deal with it...(Just Kidding) Today is a nice day. I love the warm weather because you don't have to put on the twenty pounds of layers.. My backpack weighs about 30 pounds on its own...

   Today is Tuesday, so I got to sleep in alittle while Jeremy went to class.. It's always nice to get sleep.. I love sleep... Sleep is AWESOME!!!

    Then I went to class after bringing something to my mother... I really enjoyed class today because I spoke out more than anyone in my group, mostly because I knew what I was doing... After I write this blog I'm going to check my test for Research class that I did yesterday... The teacher said that some people did really good and some people did really bad!!! I hope I'm on the good side, because I have only gotten a B on my last three tests... If I'm on the bad side, then my grade will fall...waaaaa....

     Well, I guess I'll go because Jeremy is whining the he's hungry and ready to eat, so I'll have to beg hime to do a blog on here some other day... Oh by the way!!!! I want a puuppy!!!! I'll keep you posted....

My Silence, My Light

 


Alone.

alone I am leaning,

pondering,

wondering,

searching.

 

The world beckons me.

Come be alone,

be mature,

be adult.

Stray not to childhood.

 

Silence it kills.

It kills your ears,

your thoughts,

your wants,

your happiness,

your sanity.

 

I want to curl up

in a ball somewhere.

My thoughts move swiftly.

Fast,

loud,

confusing,

negative thoughts.

 

Yet in my darkness,

there’s light.

Light that I want,

that I look forward to seeing.

That light to which

I’ve given up all things.

 

When that light is removed,

I am scared,

terrified,

lonely,

sad,

angry at this cold world.

 

Life, it pulls you away

from the things you want,

while forcing you to do

the things you must.

 

It makes you want to cry,

scream,

yell,

kick things,

surrender,

give up.

 

Then I remember your smile,

your love,

your patience,

your warmth,

your generosity,

your sanctity.

 

Without such,

I am alone,

pondering,

wondering,

searching.

 

Thinking of you,

it makes me smile,

laugh,

cry in happiness.

 

life’s tunnel,

it is a trial worth the tribulation,

it is worth the hardships,

the loneliness,

because at the end of my silence,

and darkness,

you stand firm,

you lead me to safety,

you make life bearable.
