where there is love, there is life

last night was a great night! i was strawberry shortcake for halloween. we had a great time. jenny and went to jen friend's house in the central west end to get ready and eat PIZZA! getting ready was hectic because some of our friends waited til that day to get their costumes together. so everyone was running around like a chicken with its head cut off! haha but it all worked out and here is everyone's costume:

Jenny - diehard cardnials fan
Jen friend - diehard cardnials fan
Ashley - sexy spy, gangster
Dan - Mimi from Drew Carey
Ella - French Maid
Cori - Dorothy of the Wizard of OZ

We went to the Central West End and partied out in the streets! There was a huge costume contest and Jenny and Jen went on stage with this guy dressed up as Busch Stadium! It was great! hah! The night was a blur after that point... we went to some bar called jackson's or something to a supposed "costume party" we get there and there is no costume party, WE ARE the costume party. some crazy durnk lady kept pulling my dress up and it was really annoying and the bar tender gave us some nasty jagermeister shot concoction. we leave there and go to dustin's costume party. i just now remembered that i fell backwards into shower because i had to pee so bad and someone else was on the pot. as i was getting into the shower, i pulled the shower curtain down and it all fell on me! hah. luckily jenny and ashley were there to put it back together. i am laughing so hard that i am crying right now! hah then i remember the shot of jim beam (yuck!) after dustin's house we meet back up with cori to some maryville parties. the person that i thought was having the party, didnt end up having it, but his door was open.. so we casually walk inside - the lights are off, and the music is blarring, but there is no one around, besides some dude passed out on the couch. so of course we are all wasted and so we start dancing! in this apartment and no one is there but us. hah i didnt even see the guys that lived there being there either. hah so we are dancing around and the front door is wide open, and there are people walking by looking at us like we are crazy! then we decide to go downstairs where the actual party was going on. haha we get there and start dancing away. it was fun, drunken times and recollections. I had a GREAT TIME!

Since I last wrote. Things have been a little crazy. All last week I was designing books for my Book Design Class. I had to make 20 books in 5 days. Plus work 4 of those days. Yikes. I was up til 4am working on them. After turning them in, I was still envisioning books in my head. It was horrible. I was scarred.

This past weekend was Tabitha's birthday and she came in town. Saturday night we all went out for her birthday. I had GREAT time. Tabitha on the other hand, didn't have such a great time. Her boyfriend Grady came with her. They got in a huge fight and while they were on their way to meet up with us in Jenny's car, Grady jumps out of the car because he can't take it anymore. So then Tabitha jumps out and then Sarah jumps out after Tabitha. Jenny is left alone in the car, but she can't stop driving because she is at a green light behind a line of cars and there is a cop to the right at the light. On top of that, she has loads of alcohol in her car, open cans of beer and 30 pack of Grady's beer, a bottle of wine. She isn't just going to pull over with the cop right there. So she continues to drive and Tabitha and Sarah continue to keep walking away, looking for Grady, getting more and more lost. Jenny was calling them asking them where they were, driving everywhere looking for them. While all this drama is going on, Tara, Ashley, Jen, and I are having a blast at Nectar. We made it into VIP so we were having a GREAT time - free champagne, drinks, and some cute guys. Thank goodness I rode with Ashley instead of Jenny otherwise I would have had to witness all that drama. Too bad all the drama happened, but Grady broke up with Tabitha and it's sad but I don't think they should be together. Tabitha can do much better.

I can't sleep, I think I have become a night owl or a bat or something because I can never sleep before 1am. But I am going to try to get some sleep.

So it has been a little while since I have blogged. Here is an update of my life the past few days.
Yesterday I went with Tara to her Boob Job consultation. I helped her pick out her boobs! She decided on a size C. She is gonna look hotter than she already is. I am so excited for her!
Tomorrow is Tabitha's birthday! Happy Birthday Bertha! I love you! She is coming in town either Thursday or Friday.
Guess who else is coming in town?! ANGELA!! YAY! I am so excited. It is going to be a fun weekend! I am off work on Saturday night for all the festivities! Nothing else has really been going on. I went on a 5mile bike ride off road! I got three bugs in my eyes! OWW!
I have been spending a lot of time on Facebook.com its a website for college students. You have a profile and its pretty cool. Leave your comments please and thanks again for visiting!

Well I just got off of work on the slowest night I have ever experienced. I only had 4 tables the whole night from 3pm to 8pm. I made a whopping $14.00! It was awful. I also missed my brother's 18th birthday today because I couldn't get anyone to work for me. So I missed seeing my family and my brother's birthday to make $14.00 at work. I am so mad. I am also stressing about this double date thing. Cori and I are supposed to go on a double date with JR and MM. I have a crush on JR and Cori likes MM. So she tells him that it would be a good idea if they took us out on a double date. But MM told Cori that would be fun, but we have to plan it since it was our idea!
Soo.. here are our 3 options for them:
1) Go to a baseball game and then have dinner somewhere near the stadium.- JR just went to one the other day though, so I dont know if he wants to go again.
2) Mini Golf and dinner at Hacienda Mexican Restaurant.
3) Going to the park and paddle boating at the lake and having dinner at the Boathouse.

We can't decide and we want to give them our options and have them pick. I think we are planning on Tuesday and it's already Sunday night and we still don't know. Give me your opinions! What date would you do? Thanks so much! Also if you have any good ideas for first date/double date let me know! Much appreciated!

Ciao Bella.

I went to Cori's campus apartment last night. We went to some parties and I ran into JR, one of the guys that I went to Greece with. We hung out for a while and talked. I was heavily intoxicated. I do remember he was showing me this ring he bought from Greece and I dropped it. I was soo worried that I lost it. We looked everywwhere for it. So I was about to take a drink of my mango margarita, and I looked in the glass and it was in my margarita! HAH! He saw me fish it out of the glass and we were cracking up. We kissed. It was a good time. He carried me back to Cori's apartment and he tucked me into bed.
The Aftermath...
This morning I had the worst hangover in the history of the world. I was royally sick. I was puking up my guts for about 6 hours. I tried to eat but I couldn't keep anything down. It was horrible. I had to call into work and I was supposed to be there at 4pm and I still wasnt better until I got home from Cori's and I went to bed at like 5pm. I woke up at 8 and I felt so much better. But I was starving, so I went to Lion's Choice (the best roast beef sandwiches in the world!) and got roast beef and cheddar with fries and a diet coke. YUMM! Now tonight I am having a ME, MYSelf and I night. I need a break.

Well I had a fun but rather sad weekend. Friday night was the last night I hung out with NV, my crush. We went over to Dustin's house and on our way over there he was telling me that he had a really great time with me this summer. He appologized for being a bit distant with me but it was because he was leaving and he didn't want to get attached. I told him that I understood that from the get go and that it was ok. I still liked him anyway. He told me that I was welcome anytime to visit him in NY. He also was upset that I didn't call him the last week he was going to be here. I told him that I called him on Monday to see what he was doing and then I never heard from him. He told me that he called me on Tuesday night but I never got a missed call (my phone has been acting up lately, so maybe he really did call and I just didn't get the missed call on my cell). But anyway we had a good time and we all got pretty tipsy. We made out and then went to bed. I woke up and he was next to me. It was nice. I am going to miss him, a lot.

Last night was my girl Angela's last night here too. Again we went over to Dustin's house to hang out with her on her last night here. I created a photo journal for her of some pictures that I have taken throughout the time that I have known her. I created the book myself and drew the cover. It looked really good and I think she liked it a lot. The journal was cute because I wrote things on the sides of the pictures and inside jokes that we had together. I wanted to keep it for myself but of course I gave it to her. She gave me a card saying goodbye and she said how she was so thankful that we became good friends. I thought it was really nice too. I got a little teary. I am going to miss that girl soo much! She was supposed to leave at 6am today so I made sure to hang out with her til she was about to leave. After Dustin's we left but we couldn't decide where we were going to go, so we just went to Denny's because it is open 24 hours and we all got Oreo shakes!! Yumm! We hung out there til about 5:15 am, and I was getting really tired. So we said our goodbyes to each other and hugs and I went home. I am sad because I have two people in my life that have left me.

Last night we went to Harpo's for some drinks.  Tara's boyfriend Ryan decided to do some kareoke.  So I decided I wanted to also.  I decided to sing Gretchen Wilson's "Redneck Woman."  I was really nervous but I had a good time. My friends said that I did good.  So yay!! Here are some pics from last night!

I haven't heard from my crush since Monday night.  I don't know if I will see him before he leaves on Sunday.  I hope that he calls me but it seems like he might be avoiding me. 

I am taking my Capstone class this semester and I have been brainstorming a lot of ideas for the semester long project. I want to do something with Greece since I have recently traveled there and plus I have over 500 photos from the trip! I think I am going to create some sort of Greek Travel gift set including a mini calendar, bookmarks, small travel journal, postcards, brochure or booklet of the hot spots in Athens. I am still not for sure though if this will be my final decision. I want to pick something good to do since I will be working on it for the entire semester.

Last night I went out with my friends for T. Mullen's Birthday. We went to the Elephant Bar and I drank some really good martini's. We hung out there for a while, then met up with my crush at this other place where he was playing poker. He didn't really seem excited to see me. It was strange because I called him earlier in the afternoon to see what he was doing, but he never called me back. It was weird. The only reason we went over there was because Nikki called him and he answered her call! Hmm.. He is leaving to go back to school on Sunday so I am not sure if I will see him again. He was acting funny around me. Or maybe I am just reading into this thing too much. I know that he obviously doesn't want a girlfriend but I just want to have fun with him. I don't want things to get weird.

I was at the gym yesterday, and my ex JB comes up to me! I haven't seen him in months!! I was on the treadmill and he strolls on over and starts talking to me. I turn up the speed on the treadmill and start running faster! He was telling me that he missed me and wants to talk to me so bad. I told him that I am trying to work out right now and he told me to call him later. But of course I didn't call him back! That would be so stupid of me.

The world's oldest person died today! That is so sad. :-( http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20... I think it is so amazing that people can live to be that old.

Here are some pics from Saturday night.
