So Sleepy

Here's the down and dirty recap:
- went black Friday shopping this morning with Sabrina. I ended up buying mittens, a movie, two sweaters and a a cute sweater dress.
- My parents gave me a gorgeous birthday present. I'm still in shock.
- Ended up spending some time with my mom. Good times but she still doesn't understand me.
- Found out my big sister has been in the hospital since the 21st. She went through yet another surgery and I found about it last night. My brother knew, but didn't bother to tell me. It's great to be in the loop.
- I feel like an outsider when I'm at my parent's house. I feel as though I never really belonged there and this Thanksgiving was the final straw.
- Some people can be really inconsiderate.
- I miss my boyfriend. I miss being able to talk to him. I miss being able to tell him what's bothering me. I don't understand the whole issue but there's something more to the situation.
I hate that when I found out about my sister, the only thing I wanted to do was call the boyfriend but he couldn't be bothered to spend some time to talk to me.
- My dad and my brother believed that I was going to turn 23 on Wednesday. Definitely NOT!
- I'm exhausted. Blitz +dinner snacks +friends. Driving home slightly intoxicated made me extra sleeping. So even writing this, My eyes are doing the whole theme thing.
- I leave for Corvallis tomorrow. GO BEAVERS! Buh bye Ducks!

I am so completely tired. Good night and I hope this works.

Today I made two types of gravy, two types of stuffing, deviled eggs, rolls, garlic mashed potatoes, and a casserole. Not so much as a thank you.

My family drives me up the wall. My so called brother is still not talking to me. I don't want to here anymore. I just wanted to spend today with my boyfriend.

I'm going black friday shopping with sabrina in the morning- so I guess I should just go kill time or something...

Oh dear.

I'm currently sitting on my couch watching the movie, "Hannibal". I love how twisted and brilliant it is! And it makes me want to attend an opera someday. I'm supposed to be working on the several papers I have due this term, but I can't seem to keep focused enough to do so.

I drove my room mate to the grocery store because she needed things to make pie for Thanksgiving. I decided to make a quick trip to the Asian market we have here. I woke up today craving some pho - which my mom makes the best of. I on the other hand, was looking for the cheap, quick and easy solution to my craving. I bought the noodles and the soup base for it and made it for lunch. I actually had made enough for dinner tonight BUT unfortunately my room mate decided to wash the dishes while I was still eating and well, she dumped the rest of my broth. Yeah. Not cool. I'm a bit miffed about it, but she feels bad and I don't want her to. So the best thing is get over it, right?

Blah. I need a hug from the boyfriend. =T

Week 8

I'm nearing the end of week 8 of the term. I am beyond exhausted but my mind won't stop racing enough for me to get a full night's sleep.

I have four more papers to write before the end of the term. Then I have two major finals and an oral final to take care of. Oh not to mention another pop quiz in the near future for my history class. I also have two appointments- one for the college of liberal arts and the other for the psychology department. Then I have to bake two batches of cookies before heading back to Beaverton on Wednesday night and then help make Thanksgiving dinner. I'm apparently responsible for everything BUT the turkey.

I get to spend almost four straight days with my family. I am so not looking forward to this...


The only thing that is helping me keep my head above water is the fact that in about 5 days, I get to see my ever so amazing boyfriend. Regardless of how tired he is or if he's already sleeping, he makes the time to talk to me. I am so thankful he's in my life to keep my grounded and to love me.


Oh how I absolutely love him.

Stream of conciousness

It's cold outside. It hasn't stopped raining in days. I miss the sunshine. But I do want to go puddle jumping. I miss my boyfriend. Did I mention every day I come home from class, all I want to do is cuddle up with him? I love the winter season but I hate how sad I can get sometimes. I love being in love but I hate being so far away from him. Sometimes I feel as though things don't go my way because they aren't meant to. I wish I had more definite answers in my life. I wish I didn't have any responsibilities here. I wish I could be with him forever, right now. I wish I wasn't here. I'm tired of classes. I'm tired of trying so hard but not achieving what I think I deserve. I am looking forward to coming home for Thanksgiving. Things might actually be okay with my parents. My brother is a lost cause and I have decided to stop caring. I need to get a job. I need to figure things out. I hate how I can't see what he's like when he's talking to me. I'm worried that he really is just frustrated with me. There are so many things I want to change in my life, but I just don't know if I can handle it. I need someone to support me in my decisions. I really have never felt a love like this. My biggest fear is that he will stop loving me. Le sigh.

Just a Dream

The first time I heard this song, I cried. The first time I watched the music video for it, I cried. But I just can't get enough of it and have yet to stop listening to it. Sometimes it's the confusing things that make the most sense. Or is it the other way around?



"Just a Dream" - Carrie Underwood

It was two weeks after the day she turned 18
all dressed in white, going to the church that night
She had his box of letters in the passenger seat,
six pence in her shoe
something borrowed something *blue*
and when the church doors opened up wide she put her veil down trying to hide the tears oh
she just couldn’t believe it
she heard the trumpets from the military band and the flowers fell out of her hands

Chorus
Baby, why'd you leave me, why'd you have to go
I was counting on forever, now I'll never know
I cant even breathe
It's like I'm, looking from a distance, standing in the background
Everybody's saying, he's not coming home now,
This can't be happening to me
This is just a dream

Verse 2
The preacher man said let us bow our heads and pray
lord please lift his soul and heal this hurt
then the congregation all stood up and sang the saddest song that she ever heard
then they handed her a folded up flag and
she held on to all she had left of him oh and what could’ve been
and then guns rang one last shot and it felt like a bullet in her heart

Chorus
Baby, why'd you leave me, why'd you have to go
I was counting on forever, now I'll never know
I can't even breathe
It's like I'm, looking from a distance, standing in the background
Everybody's saying, he's not coming home now,
This can't be happening to me
This is just a dream

Baby, why'd you leave me, why'd you have to go
I was counting on forever, now I'll never know
Ohh I'll never know
It's like I'm, looking from a distance, standing in the background
Everybody's saying, he's not coming home now,
This can't be happening to me
This is just a dream

Oh this is just a dream
just a dream, ya [fading out]
