9:05AM - bye bye bye spring...hello summer

...my tooth...my tooth...my tooth...I hope I get this new job..I hope I can manage my time well with it..I can't wait for august 6th..yay!!..I got a B in my Comm 302 class..yippee kai ay!! Waiting for my french grade back..we'll see what I get...then its off to session C, with comm 375 and French 102..

..happy bday to john roque, he turned 21..aint that cute?..it was cool, we ended up hittin a strip joint in MD friday night..it was cool and all..damn expensive, now why did a cheap ass like me roll up in there?..for my boy ofcourse..surprised I walked out only spending 27 bux, including cover..some of the dudes we rolled with spend 80..including lap dances and such...after half an hour though, I would say it gets kind of old and then you start realzing you could probably be some place else with some body else..why go to a strip club with hot naked girls when you can just get a hot gf instead and you can do all that stuff for free plus more...after I walked out I felt kind of dirty, filthy even..it was my 2nd time at one of those places though, not something I'll frequent in my lifetime..

...you gotta take chances in life,..the biggest risk is not taking one,..you'll never know unless you try,..try now or regret that you didn't later..thats what I gotta do...who know's how long she can go before she burns away? John Mayer -Neon

I can't believe my dad just gave me $100 the other day when I needed it,..the thing is I really didn't even ask him for it, as soon as he heard I needed it, he came back with 2 50's..that was nice..my parent's are a bit better..still feel's a bit empty these days..but its been nice, like old times...I wish the 5 year's apart never happened..but I learned somehow, in some way..but it happened...

...one day i'll be famous...

...you can call me selfish...selfish...selfish...self...

6:21PM - juicy time!!

...summer...summer...summer...Culture Night was pretty fun..glad everything turned out well..ya kno' our shows always tend to run a little long, but they're def. worth it..well..I guess moreso if yer part of FCA..haha..hmm..the fashion so was pretty hot too, ..I wanted to rock Krystals clothes all night..I need a copy of both the Fashion show and the Slide Sho..and let me say..I was kinda shocked they put gay choreagrapher as my title in the skit..I hope no one hates me on that one..uhm..cuz I was just a really effeminate choreagrapher..jeez!...and..uhh..yea...it was probably the most hilarious slide sho yet..so I need a copy of both..

..didn't go to the after party..woops..went to Dino's for a quick bit..everyone was drunk except me and a couple of the girls there..I was just tired..

...went to Potomac Mills on sunday, ran into Sharon, Ian and his bro..it was quite crazy..the guy who rang me up had the same last name as I did..which was kind of cool, cuz I don't know anyone with same last name...later that night I went to see Rent..that broadway musical..it was pretty cool,..it was different, I don't get to see a lot of those plays..during the play I didn't know what to think,..cuz it wasn't anything I was expecting...just a lot was going on at once which kinda confused me..the story was was compelling, and the message of love and having one another made ya wonder why life can't be that simple....its funny tho'..today a couple of the songs were going through my head, and they all made more sense after reading the synopsis over and over..haha..but ya kno'....I never hate on any broadway show, or any performances on stage..especially professioinal..I've always respected the stage and I've always had an open mind about everything and anything for that matter..I understand how much it means to the performers to be in the spot light and know that everything before the night of the show is time consuming and very hard work..the final product is worth it..its good seeing people doing what they love to do...thanks Shayna..I should take voice lessons.. check this out..

What RENT song are you?
brought to you by Quizilla
its pretty sad, but its the song that caught my ear..like that guitar effect..


...I really can't stop thinkin about school..oh, some tree behind our house fell down and almost hit our house the otherday...people came today and removed most of it..rain rain go away...rain rain go away...rain rain go away...

Current mood: nervous

9:24AM - the best of Aaron Carter rocks!!

...matrix2...matrix2...matrix2...I was late again for work this morning. Why? Well this time, Nikos took my car without asking. I don't see why, he had money to put it in his tank, but yet he still uses my car? So After almost losing it this morning, I regained control and slowly but surely, got to work. Little things like that tend to just piss me off, but this will soon be forgotten, its nothing big anyway. I just want him to think a little more before he does things, and just ask me. This is probably the 100th time he has never asked me..from borrowing clothes, to eating something that was mine,...all these little things, he's done without asking, ya think he'd learn..guess I gotta keep reminding him. He just didnt know I had work this morning though, so I can't get mad at him all that much, just the fact that he took my car without asking kinda angers me....

...so we initiated JP and Yves this weekend..JP was GaMesHo and Yvez was BliNgsHo...yes!! both of my idea's won in the voting process!! they wanted all sorta names for em'..thank goodness they got the ones I wanted..haha...still though, the guys got in underwear, not thongs..not like Eddie and I..eddie wore his G string backwards and I wore my thong, but it was a see-through one....anyways..peeps got drunk, Elliot had fun, and I got my dance on..fun times...

...lately my moods have been fluctuating,..I've noticed I've began to worry a lot..about school especially..its just this semester that worries me...and lately I have been feeling really weird about socializing with people..I don't know why..one minute I can talk to whomever for however long I want and then the next I'm mr. quiet with nothing to say...then It just gets to me like...jeez, how come everybody else is interesting and i'm not?..when I start worrying it leads to a chain reaction..its like "why am I like this?"..but then I get outta class or I hop in my car, let the air hit me, and bump some music, then it doesn't seem so bad anymore..I start singing and think about what makes me happy..and all my worries are gone... I wish I felt like this all the time...but ya kno'..everybody has their fault's..and everybody has their worries..it's just something I'm going to have to stick out...but then I realize I start acting like this because I think too much, and that's why I begin to worry..confidence is def. key..sometimes I have it, sometimes I don't..damnit!!

in the words of Usher Raymond


You gotta live for you and no-one else

Don't let them make you feel like you're not being real

Just live how you wanna live

You gotta do for you

You work hard, play hard

And do what you wanna do

Just pop ya collar

Don't let what people say bother you

...I am switching Majors..for the 3rd time?..I think? it sounds pretty cool though..Communications Major with a Concentration in Media Production and Criticism with a minor in Business..hehe..has a nice sound to it..but I'm doing it because it's whats best for me..and the classes seem a bit more appealing. I was def. satisfied when I decided to just go with a minor in business. I sort of took a number of classes this past year that held me back, which I didn't really need..but, they were worth the effort because it proved what I was interested in..I haven't really taken comm classes though, but It seems as if I would enjoy it..i've talked to people about it, and the switch best suits me,...I just have to take these damn language classes, ..I think i'm going to take french again, instead of starting new...its gonna be a long summer and hectic from here on out..I'm tryna get out by 2004 Fall...I better not be suspended too...cuz i'm very close to doing that poor this semester..God is good..

...I am still surprised about my position as FCA's VP next year.., I hope I can do this..infact I know I can..whats there to worry about?..Eddie and I are running things, so it should be fun~~...the DraftHouse is mucho cool,..LOR 2 was tight, again..

...I finally replaced my windshield wiper,...and Elliot fixed the washer for the windshield too...it used to just shoot over my car, but now its back to the way it was meant to be..yes!!..these past days have made me smile...the weather...the people...the..hi hello..X2...X2...X2...X2...

8:33AM - please let my allergies go away!!

...spring...spring...spring...ok, well spring is here,..and so are my allergies?..I never have allergies damnit...grr!..or did I really catch SELF's cold over the phone,..ya kno' I just want school to end so bad now..I don't even know what to type..i'm just typing cuz I haven't in a couple day's..this weekend was cool..it was E's bday. We all just drank at my crib..thats all he wanted really. Man, what happened this weekend was crazy, I was kind of let down that my friends would act the way they did. Yelling outside my house around 2 am, waking my neighbors up...maaannn..we're not in high school people! I guess they just did what was best for them at the time. Actually, now that I think about it, I think I was more worried that my neighbors awaking..if we lived out on a farm where yer neighbors are a 1/4 mile down the road, I don't think I would have frowned too much..it's just i'm not cool with my neighbors..ever since my dad left, which was 5 years ago, we don't speak to em'...everyone speak's to eachother except us..and for things to go down the way they did and have one of our neighbors flash their light on and off in the middle of the night... well it doesn't make Urbania look too good...

...so I dropped my mom off last night at Dulles at around 730pm..she was leaving for some Medical Conference thats in Bahia, Brazil for a full week!! (party?..prolly not)..but during the ride up I tried my best to hold back my tears...everytime we have a talk she always brings up dad and things..and she brought back the memory of the time my dad first left us for his job in Togo..i was like 15 or 16..it was so sad, not knowing how long my dad was gonna be gone...my lil bro, my mom, and I were crying so hard seeing him wave us good bye..justin just let it in sink in..i get teary eye'd just thinkin about it..I kno we drove back from the airport and I fell asleep crying so hard..and when I woke up..we were back, hoping all would be better..I woke up tired..then realized it wasnt over..I ran upstairs..and fell asleep crying alone, crying myself to sleep..wondering why this happened..it was only the beginning of something that would change me...dag, i just teared here at work..i'll just blame it on my "allergies"....yup, and my coworked asked me if i as ok..she thinks its the allergies

..but yea..thats why I teared when I dropped my mom off last night..when dad left me it devastated me,..and I didn't think I would shed a tear when I dropped mom off,..she's only gone a week..it's just the idea of one of my parents leaving me again..she said something that only brought me to more tears when she stepped out the car..she said she knew why God gave her 3 sons..and she meant it was because we would be the 3 men in her life cuz it was destined that my Dad would leave...it sounds kind of weird..but its sad,..and very sweet too..I gave her a hug, tried to smile, and got back in the car..drove off ballin'..well for like 2 mins..then turned on the music to try and forget about it..love ya mom..

...so I called up Shay and Vi,..I had to pay 25c to get to their damn house..can you believe that crap?..through a damn toll?..well it was all worth it though..through our games of black jack and poker playing for loose change and watching american idol...yay Clay!!...then we popped in the White Oleander's..good movie, about some 15 year old girl trying to find her independence through a chain of foster mothers'..twisted, slow moving, but good movie overall..drove home..40 mins they live from me!!..jeez!!

...I go to bed..and wake up to sounds of my 2 brothers arguing over what their definition of "dating" is and what the rules are behind their meaning..this is around 5 am in the morning..they must have been yelling at eachother for over half an hour..damn them two..I had to wake up at 630-7 to get ready for work..

..zelda the windwalker came out yesterday...

...lifted with eddie yesterday, tryna get somewhat cute for the good weather ...

...rest...rest...rest...rest...rest...re..

Current mood: lonely

Current music: thats when i'll stop loving you &i'll be good for you-n*sync
