Take it with a grain of salt.........

I just want to know why everyone is getting so pissed off? The blog is a place to post your opinions, ideas, thoughts, messages, etc. That is all I did, I'm not arguing w/anyone, that is the way I felt at that moment in time. Also, I haven't had my computer in a couple of weeks so I didn't have a chance to post b4 the election or whenever U thought that I SHOULD post a comment like that. So if you don't agree w/the way that I feel then don't read it. I'm not tryin to start shit with anyone and I thought everyone should know that. Also, how am I being closed minded? I just posted a fact, thats all I did, if facts are closed minded then I guess I am.

What a great weekend!!

Damn, I really love October and all but November is kicking some ass for me! So far I've worked the election which equals $100 extra on my next pay check. I'm kickin major ass in all of my classes! Damn this month rules... Newho, my weekend has been fantastic Friday I got paid at work..yay! Then around 7pm I drove up to ISU to see u know who (Adam). Damn that was a great night! Basically we actually got to talk, in person, about what has been goin on between us, and I am thrilled about the results. We decided that we don't want to be bogged down w/a long distance realtionship, or any serious relationship for that matter. So we are gonna continue on how things are, but not start any type of relationship that is similar to what we have. Then when he graduates ( cuz i think he will graduate 1st) we will see where we both stand and start something from there. Basically we know if we don't find anything close then we will have each other when we graduate. yay! That makes me excited, cuz I can stop worrying about what is goin on between us, still have alilfun if I want, and know he will be there in 2 years when we can actually start something.

Then on Saturday I got home around 5pm, did some laundry and went out w/ Becky, Amy, and Rissa, we went and ate at Romas in Bethalto. That place was sooooo yummy! mmmmm. Then we went and kicked it at Wal-Mart where we talked to Reg a bit. Then went back to Rissa's watched some TV then came to my place (just amy and rissa) and a couple of drinks and watched Hot Chick. Damn I love that movie. Sam B stopped by for a bit to say hi, which was really cool cuz I haven't seen that chick in a long time. Then that was it for the night.

So far today I went to my hockey practice in St. Louie. We had this really hot guy coach us on effective power skating and techniques, which was really cool.. cuz he was hot and a really good player. And he coaches hockey clinics,,,,, i might have to sign up for a couple of those,,,hehehe,, rrraawwwrrrrr...

The best part about this weekend is I haven't talked to Steve since Thursday, and I feel really damn good about that! Cuz no arguements, no explainning where i've been, or who with, no bullshit, no begging, damn it feels good.

get over it

i cant believe people that are so close to me cant get over it..........the american people have spoken, so SHUT UP i'm tired of hearing people whine about something they cant control. you did your job you voted so........STOP TALKING ABOUT IT!!!!!!

People need to get in with their lives

P.S. Bush is not hitler....

Good bye

Just so everyone knows I am offically done with messaging on the blog.

Good News, and Bad News

Yay! the good news is I FINALLY got my computer back!! yay! And it works and isn't slower than shit.... the bad news (good news to some) Bush will be around another 4 years. I'm tired of the bullshit and retardedness of the American people. Yes, I am upset, but right now the only thing I can say is ::::

100,000 WOMEN AND CHILDREN ARE DEAD IN IRAQ, CUZ OUR SOLDIERS KILLED THEM IN A COUNTRY THAT HARMED US IN NO WAY... How on earth can everyone be so blind.... and what is even sader.. 80% of people who voted for Bush are affiliated with a church... I didn't know killing 100,000 innocent women and children was in the bible, but hell I could be wrong......

what

dude..........................the fact is i love bush and i dont care what people think.......................... so i love bush and you dont whatever.............go it bed cause that what i said (bunny bread hahahahaha) mofo

Up the Positvity

Begone negativity, Bring on the Positivity, Hugs all around

Bleeding mouths

Since you had a big problem with it, you should have addressed it to me and not posted it on here for me to read later. My comments were not directed just totally to you. Chad doesn't even know you so why would he say anything about you. Western friends are directed to other Western people. That quote was about my old roommate, Lauda.

Forgive me for not getting the dictonary and looking up the correct defintion for "close-minded." Liberatarians are just as close minded as conservatives are. Liberals take away freedoms so they don't hurt someone that doesn't believe in the same thing others do. For example the PLEDGE OF ALLIAGENCE. So it works both ways.

Not everyone was bitching about Bush otherwise he wouldn't have been re-elected. Its not that easy to get into a war and let someone else take over. America does not want someone who is so liberal. At least, not that I see. I have never been a republican. I used to get mad at Danny Lester and bitch him out b/c he was a republican. I was totally democratic, but now it makes sense that I don't want to be so free. I want some structure in the way the country will be run. I don't want someone to tell me that I can't say the pledge of alliagence b/c I might offend someone. I don't want a liberal telling someone who is religious, "Since Diane isn't religious and doesn't believe in God so you can't say that."

When I heard that it was offical that BUSH was the president, I wasn't going to say or do anything. Then I saw all the bs people were writing and saying. I was in complete disgust. I was so angry that people were still misinformed about so many issues. Don't say that just b/c Cory and my votes lost in Madison you weren't talking about us. You were talking about everyone who voted for Bush. It kills me that people can sit there and say "I hate the president." HATE is such a strong word and the way I feel about it, if you HATE the president and don't believe in anything he's doing then move some where else. Just don't sit around and bitch about it for the next four years. As Dave says, "Make the best of whats around." I am angry b/c people can't do that. People cannot make something they think is so horrible and make it into a good thing or find at least one thing they do like. I am so tired of being mad, sad, or angry. I want to live and I am happy each day I get to do so. Its not worth it to get upset over this stuff anymore of hating something so deeply that it depresses me. I want to make the best out of every situation. I hate it that someone so close to me(you) can't do the same and we disagree so bad over one thing it causes us to fight.

Just think about this, we get into a war where the commander in chief is fighting for something to help and protect us, then we the american people elect someone else who wants to stop fighting for us. Besides America looking stupid to countries all over the world already, that makes us look more ignorant than what they already think! That says we do not believe in what we fight for, we will fold b/c we don't want people to lose lives. Someone I know said they are ashamed to live in America b/c Bush is our president and now we live in fear of terror. Wow, reality hit us!!! Someone is telling us to be scared. He is telling us, hey we need to be careful and fear for the worst but hope for the best. We live our lives thinking America is the greatest, strongest, and nothing can ever hurt us. Then, BAM!! A reality check. Bush is not sugar coating anything, but he is not trying to scare us so we are always fearful for our lives. Bush wants them to know that we will fight when they pose a threat and the especially act on it. We will not back down under any circumstance. I think if Kerry was elected that would have showed the world how weak we are, that we can't fight b/c we are in fear. Then who knows how many more attacks would happen.

I am sorry but I am not sorry for saying those things to someone that says "Bush will never be my president."

I, quite frankly, am hurt.

"It's nice to sleep knowing my country is protected by bad ass G.W. BUSH....
Why don't you Kerry supporters whine about it some more? Suck it up and SUPPORT your country you f**ks! Liberal people are the most CLOSE MINDED people I know.
Chadillac0206: people like her shouldn't be able to vote, she believes anything Michael Moore says"
Diane, I stole these from your profile and I know they were probably directed toward me.

And quite frankly, they hurt.

They wouldn't so much if you hadn't IMed me something similar earlier in the day... cuz then maybe you'd not just be talking about me, which I assume you are since Cory likes Bush and so do your Texas friends.

....and I should hope that Chadillac's quote was not concerning me, because that is the farthest from the truth.

I am upset, okay? and I have a god-given and constitutional right to say that I hate the president. You dont, good for you. I do.

I am upset and unhappy with America as a whole, because for the past four years people have bitched and polls have shown that Bush's approval rating had dropped quite a lot. That means America thought he was doing a shabby job. Solution? Vote in someone new.

But did they do that? F**k no. Hey if you liked him that's one thing. If you stood by everything he did and u thought he was a good president, then good for you. But where were those unhappy people? Probably at the polls voting for Bush. And that, my friend, is pure stupidity.

Also- closed minded- lacking tolerance or flexibility or breadth of view; "narrow opinions"

Liberals do NOT have narrow opinions. That is the trait of the conservatives by nature. Conservatives- do nothing and hope it will get better, cuz no way is better than this.
Liberals- hey if that doesn't work we'll try this, and hey if this doesn't work we'll try that.

Every political party is somewhat closed-minded anyways. It's their way or no way.

First and foremost, I feel sorry for John Kerry as a person, with whom for some reason I connected with emotionally. I felt that he stood for everything I believed, and it was as if my own friend and personal hero lost the race. You would be sad too if it ended up the other way.

I'm gonna use my right to hate GW. I'm not patriotic, and I don't have to be. Thats a difference between you and me.

I just want you to know, that my away messages, as Cory brought up, are in no way about you, or Cory. Because, if you didn't know, since u voted absentee in Madison county--- Bush lost badly in Madison county, and IL in general so it doesnt matter. And you guys have stood by the pres the whole time, you didnt talk about how shitty he was and then vote him in anyways.

Its the rest of America that can kiss my ass, and if bad shit happens, I don't wanna hear any bitching. Republicans for raising their kids to vote republican even if they know nothing about the candidates (yes Democrats do this too), people who voted for GW and couldn't have even told you who was running against him (yes I know some people here that did that), people who didnt look at the issues, the Democrats for registering to vote and not getting out there on election day, and more.

I'm bitter, and unhappy, and that's ok because I need some time to myself about this. And now I'm getting in the shower.

a lot happened this weekend

http://www.xanga.com/home.aspx?user=OohLala1983

But that doesn't mean I will forget my first blog (or stop using it for that matter.)

Alpha Sigs Salute the Pikes

Tonight we were supposed to have a sisterhood where we bake cookies and serenade the fraternities.
HOWEVER- that cannot happen after the oven caught on fire last night and the Pikes had to rescue our chapter room. Apparently, the fumes from the fire extinguisher are toxic, so we couldn't stay in the chapter room until the carpet has been cleaned.
BUT we did get to serenade the Pikes, and we gave them store-bought cookies. The song went a little bit like this:

"Boom-dee-yada, Boom-dee-yada, Boom-dee-yada, Boom-dee-yada......(in the background)
Pi Kappa Alpha, you're the best fraternity
You put out fires for our sorority-
And as the years go by,
Thankful we will be-
Boom-dee-yada, Boom-dee-yada, Boom-dee-yada, Boom-dee-yada."

It was so much fun!!! Can't wait till we do it again.... I'm in a singing mood.....

Now for a fun post.

"Sometimes ya gotta race......"- Dave Chapelle

I promise, that in the future, when my computer is working, my posts will contain more substance.

Damn Straight

u tell em diane

Bush vs. Kerry=Diane vs. Laura

Ok, well, Laura and I both agreed we got a little out of hand and crossed each other's personal lines in the past 2 post. We got in a little fight for a second but staightened it all out. The point, we both have sent in our absentee ballots. So while we can still discuss the issue there is no point in getting mad and trying to change each other minds b/c we have already voted.

Don't Act Like I'm a Dummy

Firstly of all, DIANE, don't act like I'm a dummy. Maybe I should have cited my source(s), but I was at SIUE waiting for James' class to get out so I didn't have time.

If you MUST know, I am looking for the sites I used, and one of them was http://www.issues2000.org/Candidates.htm. One of the same that u used. What a small world, that we both read the same thing and got different info out of it?

LET ME SEE......

*I didn't even say anything about the DRAFT. I know that both candidates swear if they're the next president there won't be one. To tell you the truth, I don't care if a lot of Democrats more than republicans want the draft, because I'm not for every democrat. Each party has its own set of assholes and those which are not assholes... in my opinion, Bush happens to be an asshole- not my president.
The reason that some Democrats support the draft is because it would produce a militia that is closer to representing the actual country. I don't think that it's fair that a lot of poor people enlist just because they are promised money and a college education that they could not get otherwise. On the other hand, a lot of rich people don't have to do squat because they know that when they can choose, that they don't need any of those things- so unless they have a death wish, or they are extremely patriotic (which is the minority of course) then why fight for America. I don't call that patriotism.

FLAG BURNING
I'll just use your info: Kerry and Edwards do not support the amendmentQuote from Kerry "I would not be pleased to see someone burning the flag because I love the flag, but the Constitution that I fought for preserves the right of free expression." (http://www.issues2000.org/Domestic/John_Kerry_Civil_Rights.htm)
-----If I were to burn the flag, I wouldn't necessarily be saying that I hate the country, and I'm not really hurting anyone. I could be saying a number of things. I don't like the government. George Bush for example. If he was a bit more like his dad I think I could handle it. Kerry and Edwards are in the right. However, if people are buring the flag and threatening to kill Americans and overthrow the government, then its no longer free expression, and it would be illegal.

WMDs
I cannot tell u where I found this but I can assure u that I did not pull it out of my ass, and as a journalist (even tho I am being unjournalistic voicing my opinion now as I am) I would never pull my info on some dumbass liberal's web site. If anything, that would falsify my argument more than make me look good, and I'm not a dummy.
Whether Iraq has them or not, we should be more worried about North Korea. (and I know Bush wants multiple party negotiations to get rid of their WMDs, I did do a pro-Bush speech recently, and hated every minute of it)
Kerry knows the threat is there too.
The thing that I am against. Is it REALLY all that necessary for us to have freaking terror warnings on the news? I mean, if it's a yellow or orange day, maybe I should call my professors and call off of my classes. The fact of the matter is, unless there is a specific reason to believe that we are going to get attacked by an act of terrorism, the government and the media shouldnt scare people. It's just a way to shut them up so we all follow along with Bush's little plan.

CONSERVATIVE IDEAL
-do nothing and things will straighten themselves out????

--- i will elaborate.... check back when its not late at night

Follow up to Laura's "why kerry is for me"

Please read all of this and totally understand and process this into your brain!! Please read even my opinions also.

***BEFORE WE START ANYMORE BUSH VS. KERRY…IF YOU ARE GOING TO SAY ANYTHING MORE YOU BETTER HAVE SOME FACTS AND AN ACCURATE SOURCE FROM WHICH YOU ARE USING. I WANT WEBSITES WHERE YOU GOT THIS INFO. (Not websites that some random "joe shmoe" just made up either) I DON’T WANT WHAT YOU’VE "HEARD." FIND THE INFO FIRST! BACK IT UP THEN GIVE YOUR OPINION IF YOU WOULD LIKE LAST.***

**Reinstatement of Military Draft
*Issue: People accuse Bush of wanting to reinstate draft
*Truth: In actuality, Democrats have introduced all recent draft legislation, and no Republicans have supported it.
On October 5, 2004 a draft bill (HR 163), introduced by (D-NY) Rep. Charles B. Rangel was defeated 402-2, with Democratic Representatives John P. Murtha (Pennsylvania) and Pete Stark (California Democrat) supporting the measure.
A similar bill introduced in the Senate by Sen. Fritz Hollings (D-SC) in January 2003 is still in committee (Armed Forces Committee). However, Sen. Hollings states on his website (http://www.senate.gov/~hollings/index.html) that under current circumstances, even he would not support this bill.
DIANE’S POINT-That’s funny everyone is blaming Bush but it’s the DEMOCRATS THAT WANT TO REINSTATE THE DRAFT. HMM….

**Flag Burning
*Issue: Some believe Bush wants to restrict free speech by prohibiting the desecration of the US flag
*Truth: An amendment to The Constitution that would make it illegal to descreate the US flag has wide support from BOTH Democrats and Republicans
When a potential amendment was last considered in 2000, the amendment got 63 votes (Dems and Reps), four short of the 67 needed when all 100 senators are present. Based on statements and previous votes, both sides count 64 senators in support of the amendment this year. (Source: Kerry, Edwards and Daschle May Face Vote on Flag By Helen Dewar Monday, September 13, 2004; Page A19 )
Kerry and Edwards do not support the amendment
Quote from Kerry "I would not be pleased to see someone burning the flag because I love the flag, but the Constitution that I fought for preserves the right of free expression." (http://www.issues2000.org/Domestic/John_Kerry_Civil_Rights.htm)
DIANE’S POINT-Ok, I don’t get this at all. I don’t care how liberal a person is. Flag buring should be AGAINST the law. Didn’t it make you mad when you saw people burning the flag after 9-11?!?! If it didn’t there is something wrong with your pride for you country.

**Weapons of Mass Destruction
*Issue: Hussein destroyed all his WMD after the Gulf War
*Truth: Prior to the 2002 invasion of Iraq, Hans Blix stated there were significant numbers of WMD that Iraq HAD NOT been accounted for. Since the invasion, signs of WMD production have been found in Iraq, and remnants of WMD production have been found illegally scrapped in countries bordering Iraq.
In his address to the Security Council, Blix warned that a finding "of great significance" was that many proscribed weapons were "not accounted for." "One must not jump to the conclusion that they exist," he said. "However, that possibility is also not excluded. If they exist, they should be presented for destruction. If they do not exist, credible evidence to that effect should be presented." Blix also said Iraq must explain what happened to suspected stocks of anthrax, VX gas and long-range missiles. "The issues of anthrax, the nerve agent VX and long-range missiles [are] ... perhaps the most important problem we are facing. Iraq itself must squarely tackle this task and avoid belittling the questions," he said. (http://abcnews.go.com/sections/world/US/iraq030214.html)

*Biological Weapons
In mid-1995, Iraq admitted that it had weaponized BW agents, but claimed that the entire BW program had been in "obliterated" in 1991 and that all BW weapons had been destroyed and all bulk BW agents had been deactivated. The Commission found, however, that the evidence produced in support of this claim was not credible, and that Iraq "retained suitable growth media, BW facilities, production equipment, teams of expert personnel, and the essential technical knowledge" after 1991.
Iraq claimed that it unilaterally destroyed more than 7500 liters of the Botulinum toxin and 3412 liters of Bacillus anthracis spores in 1991; UNSCOM noted that there was not evidence to support quantities claimed to be destroyed. The report concludes "the Commission has no confidence that all bulk agents have been destroyed.
UNSCOM did find evidence of the destruction of some BW bombs at the site declared by Iraq, but found that the remnants account for less than one third of the bombs Iraq claims to have destroyed. In addition, UNSCOM found evidence of R-400A bombs carrying BW at an airfield where no BW weapons were declared.
Aerosol generates for BW Interview evidence suggests that there were 12 devices produced; none were destroyed by UNSCOM.
UNSCOM determined that there remained substantial bacterial growth media imported into Iraq which remains unaccounted for: 460 kg. of casien; 80 kg. of thioglocollate broth; 520 kg. of yeast extract; and 1100 kg of peptone. The report says that "the amounts that are 'missing' are significant, and would be sufficient to produce quantities of agent comparable to that already declared by Iraq."

*Chemical Weapons
After the Gulf War, Iraq claimed that it had 412.5 tons of CW agents remaining. Four hundred eleven tons were destroyed under UNSCOM supervision; 1.5 tons of the CW agent VX remain unaccounted for.

*Special Munitions
Special Munitions Iraq claimed that between 1982 and 1988, 100,000 munitions filled with CW agents were consumed or disposed of. UNSCOM found that this number could not be verified. Iraq claimed that there were 42,000 special munitions destroyed in the Gulf War. UNSCOM was unable to verify that number, and found that the destruction of 2,000 unfilled munitions remains uncertain, and 550 filled munitions remain unaccounted for.
Iraq claimed that it unilaterally destroyed 29,000 special munitions; UNSCOM found that of these, 100 filled munitions remain unaccounted for.


DIANE’S POINT- I don't know where you found something saying "Bush WAS planning a war." Bush probably had some plans if something happen. I don’t know about you, but I don’t want a president that doesn’t have at least plan about war against countries with WMD!!! Any country with WMD’s pose a threat to every country! Especially when that country HATES everything that America does!! Having a plan doesn’t mean that you are going to start a war! It’s just safer for the people of that country incase you ever have to go to war! The president needs to keep a close eye on a country with WMD’s. So no Bush isn’t psychic, but he is PREPARED.

**GAY’S IN BOY SCOUTS
DIANE’S POINT- BUSH ISN’T THE PERSON KEEPING GAYS OUT OF BOY SCOUTS!!!! The boy scouts is a private organization. They control that! That’s like a man wanting to join Curves. He can’t b/c its just for woman. They are a private organization. SORRY, BUT ANOTHER REASON "NOT TO VOTE FOR BUSH" THAT JUST WENT DOWN THE TOILET!

**TAXES
First of all, Wal-Mart gives all their employees, part time and full time, FULL BENEFITS!! I think thats pretty good! "Hey you are making minimum wage, but we are going to provide you with whatever you want b/c you are working here trying to make a living!!!!"

*Welfare!!! Let’s go take a drive through one of the SEVEN projects Alton has. How many people are on welfare and how many of them actually have a job where they are trying to support their family?!?! "I can’t get out of the projects and provide the things my family really need, but yet I spend all the money I make on EXPENSIVE NAME BRAND clothes for my kids and me!!!" Yeah, I want to go to work and bust my ass, so at the end of the day I can support those LASY ASSES by giving them money to buy that shit!!!!

**CUTS
YOU’RE SO WORRIED ABOUT TAX CUTS AND WHO PAYS MORE. WELL LETS TAKE A LOOK HERE…"According to the Kerrys' own tax records, and they haven't released all of them, the couple had a combined income of $6.8 million in income last year and paid $725,000 in income taxes. That means they're effective tax rate was a whopping 12.8%. Under the current tax system, the middle class pays far more than the Kerry tax rate of 12.8%. In fact, the average federal tax rate, combined payroll and income tax for a middle-class family is closer to 20% or more. George W. and Laura Bush, who had an income one-tenth of the Kerrys, paid a tax rate of 30%," and he's Kerry talking about how Bush is the guy skimming away not paying taxes, he's part of "the rich" and we've got to get him to pay more. (http://www.rushlimbaugh.com/home/daily/101104/content/eib_correction.guest.html)


*********80% of the federal income taxes are paid by the top 20% of the income earners*********(http://www.rushlimbaugh.com/home/daily/site_081304/content/only_the_rich_pay_taxes.guest.html)
"If you give a tax cut to people in the bottom 20%, you're not going to stimulate anything. They're not paying any taxes anyway."
"People with the bottom fifth of income, for example, averaging earnings of $16,000 a year saw their effective tax rate drop to 5.2% from 6.7%. Yet because lower and many middle-income families have been paying very little federal income tax in the first place, those in that bottom fifth of earnings received an average tax cut of only $250." So? They're not paying any taxes! They're paying a very small portion of the federal income tax burden in the first place!"

"The tax cuts of 2001 and 2003 reduced tax rates for people in all income brackets but they had a disproportionate effect on people at the very highest levels because they had already been paying a disproportionate share of total federal taxes and in part because stock dividends get a special lower rate."

DIANE’S POINT- Who do you think provides this country with jobs??? Your family with jobs??? The rich that make "butt-tons" of money!!!! At least they do for my family. How do you think I am right here in Texas and being taken care of by bro-in-law? B/c Chris is working for SBC, a rich company!!! That pays taxes to people barely paying anything!

*** GO READ THE ENTIRE ARTICLE. I COULD POST FACTS FROM IT ALL DAY! GO READ IT AND FOLLOW WHAT IS BEING SAID. ***
So there, this is the response to Laura’s post. I think I pretty much "ROCKED YOU KERRY VOTER’S WORLD!" Sorry it took so long but there it is!!!

I swear to god

I am so pissed off right now. I haven't had the internet in about a month and still no progress. Sonofabitch. I promise tho, when I get it back and I don't have to use my roommate's computer, I will try to post one hell of a lot more often. ARRRGH

one great night

laura, emily and myself go to 6 flags witch was a great time. then R low was in the mood to drink so we went back to emily's. the night was fun but is was like 1:15 in the morning laura left the emily went to bed. it looked like the night was going to end......then reg call. we stayed up till 4 in the morning drinking and calling people in the middle of the night we talked to diane for like a hour or so. it was great...if halloween is going to be anything like that we are all in for a good time..

my views

first
If we let our guard down for even a second and the terrorist are allowed to get a planed attact in the USA that was anything like 9/11 or bigger. The last f*cking thing i going to be worried about is money, health care, jobs, ext..... get my drift!!! The only way for you to see how big of a problem terrorism, in the world, is if you get affected personally.

Second gay in the military
Dont ask dont tell works they are not discriminating agains anybody so it works laura i know where you a coming from but people are closed minded about things even more so in the military. When you are in the military with a bunch of guys the want to think everybody is the same and can do the samething. When they know you gay they think you weaker. Thats not the right way to think but it is how things are and the dont ask dont tell works.

Political Views and Why Kerry is for ME

Patriot Act-
severely wrong, infringement on Constitutional rights. If you ask me, if everyone wasn't so freaking scared of "terrorism" then they would agree with me. It's funny how u put a little orange light up on the news saying that today is a high threat of terrorism day and people are willing to give up their rights. cowards. And there's plenty more to be scared about that's actually worth worrying about.... like problems a little closer to home. Money, health, jobs, etc.

Religion in Schools-
NOT RIGHT, I am a very non religious person and even if I were, I wouldn't believe in prayer in public schools. send your damn kids to a private school if you want them to do that. Exception- if you want to pray in your own group at school, as long as u are not alienating anyone around u or taking school time to do so, then u r ok

Gay Rights-
NO GAYS IN BOY SCOUTS?- according to Bush. how exactly is that ethical? AND- u can be gay in the military as long as you don't tell anyone? why is it hurting anyone if you're gay? they let women in the military who are attracted to men, why not let men who are attracted to men?.
AND what is this "hate crime rules don't apply to gays" ..... unethical, and sickening, damn sickening. a hate crime is a hate crime, sexual preference and race dont matter

IF I wanna burn a flag, I CAN, it's my right, and John Kerry says so. freedom of expression baby

Read the news? Saddam destroyed all his WMDs in '91 and '92. Put that in your pipe and smoke it... then worry about Al Quaeda if you're that concerned about terrorism

I'm also reading here that Bush planned the war on Iraq BEFORE 9/11 even happened!
now why would he do that? U let me know y Bush would want to attack a nation who never posed any threat to us and had no WMDs and then blamed the whole thing on 9/11.... unless he was psychic im pretty sure if Iraq had to do with 9/11 he wouldnt have known that before it even happened

The rich get richer (Bush's "elite") and the poor get poorer?
In a country where WalMart can make butt-tons of money using minimum wage workers and in some cases Mexicans who work for even less just so they can get richer, I am ashamed to be a citizen. I'd personally rather be on welfare too than work my ass off at two min. wage jobs to feed a family.

MORE LATER... watch the debate tonight biatches

i had a great day at work

got to play with sledge hammer and a big tracker.....dam it was fun as hell

Political Intelligence Con't

Let me just say that I have a lot of democratic views, and up until this election was nothing but democratic, but am voting for Bush.

Ok first of all, at least Cory is voting for something he believes in-terriorism and war. If thats all he is focusing on that is better than a lot of dumb ass people (rock stars and actors-public eye) I see on tv that say, "hey vote for Kerry b/c Bush is dumb." At least Cory has one point that he believes in and knows about. So I say if thats all you know Cory you are at least somewhat into what is going on and smarter than a majority of our peers!

Second, Emily, the whole abortion thing really doesn't matter. The only people that can change that is the Supreme Court. Plus, Bush is pro-life but doesn't oppose abortion if a woman gets raped, its incest, or unhealty for the mother. So don't worry about having to go through horrible events of being raped and ending up with a child. I think this issue is put at rest!

Right now I am as sick as a dog so I am going back to bed but I will have more in the next couple of days. Stay tuned!

Yeah, research

Cory,
I want you to post something other than the word "terrorism" when it comes to Bush, and I give you my word I will listen and be more than happy consider your opinion.



Oh, look HALLOWEEN SITES

Political Intelligence..................

Cory, people find those quotes when they 'learn' about the two canidates for the 2004 presidential election. This learning process is called 'research'. In this case it is learning about what each canidate plans to do for their four years in office, what they support and don't support.

On a different note you believe that Bush is doing a great job about 'terrorism'? He has been fighting 'terrorism' now for 3 years. What do we have to show for it? The answer to that question would be nothing. Please, prove me wrong. So how can you say he has great plans for terrorism? If he does why hasn't he done anything in the past 3 years?! What is this great plan anyways?! We give you examples of what Kerry wants to do, why can't you give us examples of what Bush wants to do? Please, give us examples of WHY you want to vote for Kerry, thats all we ask, and then we will leave you alone and respect your decision.

Here are some reasons WHY I want to vote for Kerry:

1) I am a college student, and tuition rates are increasing more than inflation. Even if I wasn't a college student, I still want to be able to afford sending my children to college. It is stupid to think that a college degree will cost you more than what most people pay for their homes that they live in for the rest of their lives. ~ Bush began the 'no child left behind', this was great, but then he made it so the really poor people who really needed it weren't eligible. Not only did he do that, but he also cut over a billion dollars from this program to, in his words, "fight terrorism". Is POVERTY (poor, under educated) not one of the 4 MAIN SOURCES OF CRIME? So wouldn't taking money, chances, hope, and education from the poor allow more crime and "TERRORISM" within our own boundaries? Because there will be more children traped in their economic status without even a chance to move one step up within the social classes. YEAH THATS WHAT I THOUGHT! Kerry on the other hand has made a wonderful plan to make college affordable for EVERYONE. By means of community service.

2) I am a woman, and I am prochoice! I want the reassurance of knowing that if I get raped within my lifetime and become pregnant by my rapist I will have the choice to stop that. By means of "The morining after pill" or by abortion. I shouldn't have to carry that child ( a reminder of that horrible event) for 9 months and go in front of muiltipe juries and people I've never seen to re-tell my horrible story, just so I can gain enough rights in "The Land Of The Free" to make my own decision. It would not be fair to myself or that unborn child to place me responsible of a life that I didn't want, especially if I am not responsible enough to make my own decision about my own body. Bush is against every thing that I just stated. Kerry is on the exact same level of thought as me.

3) I believe knowledge is the most important thing in the world. You need knowledge to survive in our society. You need to know what foods are healthy and which are not. You need to know how to protect yourself, in more ways than one. Bush has wanted (not sure if this has passed yet) to take all sex education out of health classes in the United States. He wants to take all mention of ways to protect your self from sexually transmitted diseases and ways to avoid becoming pregnant out of health classes. With AIDS at an extremely increasing rate within the United States, we should, as a Country, try to do everything we can to stop it. We should be telling middle schooler's how NOT to be infected with AIDS, rather than not tell them anything at all. We should be helping to save lifes, not end them faster. There were 7.4 million people infected with HIV in 2003. (that is a stat, but that was the newest one I could find). The percentage of new outbreaks of brothel-based sex workers dropped from 43 percent in 1998 to 29 percent in 2002 due to condom-promotions. Come on people that number was almost halved because of awarness and knowledge. Bush wants to take that away from us and the youth. How stupid can you be?!!

Ok, I need to stop now because I am appalled by all of this................... but I will write more later...

too much time on your hands

You know i could do the same thing for "the great John Kerry", but i have better things to do with my time. As you can see the people who support Kerry are always looking for gay shit like write a poem from the stuff he said. Get a life really

If this doesn't make me wanna vote Bush...

I'm going to have to give my props to Cory Dack on this one. I was looking on Alex Eichen's blog, cuz I remembered it from when he showed it to Kate and I. It's pretty interesting so I glance there every so often.

To the point, Cory had THIS on her profile, ENJOY:

This poem is composed entirely of actual quotes from George W. Bush. The quotes have been arranged for aesthetic presentation by Washington Post writer Richard Thompson.

MAKE THE PIE HIGHER By George W. Bush

I think we all agree, the past is over. This is still a dangerous world. It's a world of madmen and uncertainty and potential mental losses. Rarely is the question asked Is our children learning? Will the highways of the Internet become more few?How many hands have I shaked? They misunderestimate me. I am a pitbull on the pantleg of opportunity. I know that the human being and the fish can coexist. Families is where our nation finds hope, whereour wings take dream. Put food on your family! Knock down the tollbooth! Vulcanize society! Make the pie higher! Make the pie higher!

that happened

It's Sat night and i was going to meet megan at the block party. We went to the arch and union station. we got home around five or so at i talked to laura on line for a while. i thought i was going to do some homework but i feel asleep the next time i woke up it was midnight. WHAT THE F*CK

Michael Moore disappointment

Damn it!!! I did a story the other day about Michael Moore possibly coming to EIU. Apparently, the board has decided not to bring him, and now I have to write another story, this time saying HE'S NOT coming here instead of the one I wrote before.

I was really getting excited!!! And my brother was even going to come up to see him, but not anymore probably, since Moore's not coming, and I'm sad.

ASA baby !!

I got ASA MUTHA f***a.

A different kind of rush

Hey everyone!!!! I have been rushing a sorority as you all pretty well know. Well tonight I talked to my gamma chi.... and I GOT A BID!!! Will it be Kappa Delta or Alpha Sigma Alpha? All bets are welcome..... The betting closes at 5 p.m. tomorrow when I walk to the union and meet my new sisters! Updates lata.


P>S> I am at the DEN right now, whew my job is stressful.

rush rush rush

all i do is rush around no time to relax i hate it on fridays is the worst get home from working all day. i just have time to take a shower then out the door to the radio staton



i hate that place..........

HOWDY Y'ALL

Aww...Cory I miss you!!

Ok so I have only been in Texas for a little over a day but its kind of sucking. I guess it would when all I have is my sister and Chris, my bro-in-law. Sure Chris E. is here but I hung out with him tonight and he's changed. I didn't like hanging out with him at all. I love having friends I can just chill with. Like watch tv and make fun of people and stuff and it wasn't like that at all. So I don't know how many more times I will hang out with him. Shhh...don't tell anyone this though. ANYWAY...

So I arrived in San Antonio at 6pm Tuesday and that night I unpacked and had dinner with Angie and Chris. Then Chris tried to teach me the drums but they are so loud that we couldn't do much b/c it was late and we didn't want to wake up the neighbors. Plus it drives the dogs insane!!!

Today Angie and I went to this place called Artisian's Alley. Its really cool. Its a few jewerly, clothing, and home furnishing botiques. I got this rockin straw cowboy hat with flames on it! Although i am not a big fan of flames like Laura and Andy G. this hat is just too cute to resist! Plus apparently these kind of hats are real big with the girls down here like when you go canoeing or when the rodeo comes to town. Ye' ha. Then we went to this huge jewerly store and I put in an application and purchased a pair of star earrings and this cool watch. Then hung out with Chris E. and so far thats all I have done.

dam that sucks

Diane left for her new life 2 day i got to take her to the air port so the people i spent the most time with this summer are all gone
Andy school
LALA school
Diane Taxas
Mitch Who knows whan it comes to that kid

ya i got emily, steve, megan, reg, bagle, bill brooks, thomas, nolan, jfred, stamper and so many more it is just not the same they were the people i rolled with and now they not here.


but on the flip side just wait till next summer when we can all roll toghter to the bars and get drunk every night.......and watch out texas we will be their this x-mas and over the summer for shore my peeps keep it real

Was it too good to be true??

Ok. Well the other night when we (Laura, Cory, Em, Steve, and Rach)went to Steak n Shake we saw Justin Mathenia. I was all types of "omg hes hot!" Blah, blah, blah. You know me. Well I got a hold of him through stlpunk b/c I couldn't let it rest at this guy is hot. We just got back from a date! I knew I would have a good time or at least I figured it wouldn't suck. Well I had an awesome time. We really clicked! It turns out that he is leaving tomorrow b/c he's in the Navy and hes going to Michigan or something like that(which sucks) but in 2 months he is moving to San Antonio!!! Can you believe that?!?!? It's kind of weird. Here I think this guy that I haven't seen since like freshman year (and I use to think he was an ass) is all hot and hes moving to not only the same state but the same freaking city as I am. Which only leaves me with these 2 quotes..."It's a small world" and "Everything happens for a reason." I'm going to bed very happy with the things turned out tonight!

new aim and email

got aim screen name cmaher1984 New email cmaher_3@charter.net

no bars for LaLa

It's the weekend and I'm happy. I have been waiting for this.

We can't get into the bars without a fake tho, so I guess I'd better find other methods of entertainment till either I meet more people or turn 21.

I have been sitting around the room for awhile now. I need to get to reading but I thought I'd post on here first.

For any of you who want to come visit me in Chucktown, the following are directions:

*255 to 270 Indianapolis
*follow this until it turns into 70 Indianapolis (east)
*(When you see the cross, you're in Effingham.) right past Effingham take 57 N toward Chicago
*take 16E (exit 190 A) toward Charleston
*right onto 4th st.

School starts..... :(

For most colleges and Universities class begins tomorrow... I am actually excited.. I don't really know why I am... but I am... newho.. Graceland was awesome!!! I love elvis (in his earlier non-druged out years)... The drive really sucked, we (steve, amy, and me) left at 9am and didn't get home until after midnight... It was well worth it though. Well I'm gonna go, I think we might go and see the Exorsist tonight, if anyone is interested... bye bye for now!! .................... ELVIS HAS LEFT THE BUILDING!!!....................

At School Now

I am at EIU now and sitting in my room. I decided that I definitely need to post to let you people know what's going on since I can't just come over and see you. More Later.

CSI bye bye

I have been watching abnormal amounts of CSI lately. Today I turned that shit in to the library about 3 weeks late. Of course I don't get a fine, but it was a sad, sad day. No more watching my Greggie get blown up in his own DNA lab. I know people, its not real. I have a grip, dont tell me to get one.

I'm sorry I missed all the fun at Emily's. Man, you are a pimp. Two guys in one night? Tell me how you do it.

Oh yes its ladies night...........

wow! what a weekend.... sok lala that you didn't come over.. maybe next time.... I had the best time this weekend,,,this beats all my summer weekends thus far! I had the house to myself Friday night... so yes, we took advantage: Ladies night...... which turned into me, megan, and amy....oh and two guys.... ha!! Adam came down from Lincoln to see me and Ryan came over about 2am or so.... good times,,, good times... I miss Adam so much and I just saw him yesterday morning... but tomorrow I'm gonna call him and tell him how I feel, everything, the whole shabang... I'll admit... I am nervous.. we'll see what happens....... oh and Steve does know about Adam... I told him everything... CHRIS: IF YOU READ THIS U KNOW NOTHING!!!!!

2 weeks Till EIU

Hey everybody, we gotta do something before I leave for school. Cuz as we all know, I haven't before, except for a half hour from here.

P.S. Megan and Emily- sorry I didn't show up for movie night, I drank a little so by the time I was sure I was good to go it was late.

A formal apology to Em and Steve

A formal apology.
 

"To Emily and Steve, I'd like to say I am sorry for the events that occurred on the night of Saturday July 24th.  I hope that I was not one of the people who broke the rules, but seeing as I did not break anything or spill anything I guess that I am okay. 
 
I also apologize for bringing a guest.  I meant to only bring Andy which I thought was okay since we all hang out with him once in awhile.  I did not know he was going to bring Trisha, but I did ask before they showed up.  Although I cannot speak for them, I am sorry for any rules having been broken by either of those two during the course of the night, as it was my doing that allowed them to be present.
 
I understand completely the rules that were set down for us as far as breaking things and underage drinking (or of-age drinking) and driving.  If it were my apartment I'd have the same rules.  Although I remember many a nights (out of the few nights I had drinking parties in Cougar) where I must say I don't remember anyone staying.  And that made me kinda mad, as it would have been my responsiblilty had something happened. 
 
I understand you don't want a repeat of this, so you can rest safely.  Everyone will be gone in a mere 2 weeks or so."

But as far as the night goes, I am very appreciative and I had fun.  Thanks, and sorry once again.

I am disappointed in you people.

All u had to do was click the link and sign up for emails, I'm sad to say my efforts are wasted

NEW RULES FOR THE IRRESPONSIBLE:

Due to an overwhelming amount of irresponsibility, rudeness, and total lack of control and respect I am sorry to announce that there will be NO MORE underage drinking until otherwise posted. I am ashamed to say those who WERE invited on Saturday, July 24, to my home, were none other than my closest so-called best friends. I was extremely disgusted to see my friends act in such an irresponsible, selfish way. Those rules that were imposed for Saturday were the same since I and an of-age drinker moved into our apartment in December of 2002. Being almost two years ago I would except, especially from my closest friends, that those few rules that we had set would be followed and understood. These rules only consisted of: 1) You spill it, YOU clean it (yes, that was broken on Saturday)  2) You break it, You buy it (I don't believe this rule was broken, but I have yet to venture into the basement where sounds of something breaking had happened) and last but not least 3) YOU DRINK YOU STAY NO QUESTIONS!!! Since people cannot follow these few and simple rules underage drinking is no longer accepted until people gain some respect for others and their property.

Who knew?

We could post in color?? Thanks for bringing this to my attention Ms. Holdy

Cory's Mom has got it goin' on

Ok. So. I haven't been on here in forever. My computer sucks. Its really slow and you all know how impatient I am. Last night was a hell of a good time. Big up to Cory's Mom (not Mitch's piece...haha). Last night will go down in my book of one of the best party nights with my peeps. So many funny/crazy things in one night. All the drunken phone calls, boob flashing by a certain someone who will remain nameless, convos with Cory's Mom (Cory your facial expressions were priceless!) There is so much more but I'd really have to put my mind to it to think about it b/c I was WASTED!!! Why can't every night be that awesome!?! PEACE OUT YO

Sean Connery Lives to be approxmiately 1.2 years old

My beta-fish, Sean Connery, died this morning around 10 am. Actually I'm not sure when he died, but I found him around noonish.

It must have been from over-feeding, or maybe from not changing his water properly, I cannot be sure, and I'm not doing an autopsy. His body has been hauled off with the trash by Bob Sanders Waste, INC because his owner and only family member in the area could not bring herself to flush him.

Surviving family members include Laura G. of Godfrey, IL; Jen F. of St. Louis, MO; Erika M. of Columbia, IL; Kate D. of Quincy, IL; and older-stepbrother Gill D. also of Quincy, IL.

He will be missed. There will be a memorial today at St. Mary's Church (in Laura's Head) at 6:00 pm. A moment of silence was held for him at 20 after noon this morning. Donations can be made at the Griffith household anytime this week.

Drunk Guy at Dave

You know Cory, I have no idea what happened to that guy, but I sure do hope he is alive.

Hey again everyone, I hope we get our shit together and have something fun to do on the fourth. Get ahold of me,
Love, Laura

Dave Matthews

It was a great show and i had a lot of fun the only think i wish i was 21 and i could of got drunk with out having people buy me boose. when u get high their are too many things that come happen as an effect dry mouth ext.... I would like to get really drunk instead.



P.S. What do u think happened to the guy that was passed out at the end of the show!!

Weekend Update With Laura McGriffith

ON Thursday, the Dave Matthews tour came to UMB Bank Pavillion to start off their Summer 2004 Concert series. I was there, along with 1 Altonian, 4 Godfreyites, and 1 Greenfieldian having a splendid time.

ON Friday, a sad attempt by two young kids trying to see Dodgeball landed Andy and Laura in the theatre behind a large railing to see The Terminal. Tom Hanks was stunning as well as hilarious in this orignal film by Steven Speilberg.

ON Saturday, 5 young adults tried once again to see Dodgeball, and succeeded. To their surprise, they met Bill, Chad, Nick, and other Altonians, a few of which they have not seen since the summer after graduation. And for the movie. Ben Stiller put on a fantastic, laugh-out-loud performance as White Goodman, Globo-Gym Health Nut Extraordinaire. His work in this film has been compared to his work in the fat-camp comedy, Heavyweights. If you have not seen either movie, I suggest u hop to it.

Dave M

Dave is only six days away CAN'T wait!!!!!!

Another Day Another Headache.......

Yeah, I decided why not to posting.. I'm on the internet every freakin day, why not just post some stuff and see if anyone else does over the summer... Anywho... Had another test today, which means it was another sleepless night last night.. but its all good.. If anyone wants to do anything tonight(thursday) or saturday night let me know.... On other news... I've been talkin to this guy through emails (no I didn't meet him on the net.. wait actually i did, i bought my pointfest tickets from him through ebay. But I met him cuz it was so close to the show. I met him down in collinsville to do the transaction... pretty cute if you ask me.. nice truck too. so anyways---) Ok, so i talked to him through emails since pointfest, but i'm runnin out of things to say to him,,, and i don't wanna be some kinda strange person who continues on like a freak. Any sugestions??? PLEASE!? I at least wanna find out some way if he has a girlfriend, or is married or anything... But I guess thats cool if he does.

On other guy news, I talked to Adam last friday. He kept sayin how much he wanted to drive down that night and just chill with me, but he had to do something with his dad the next morning. So I have no idea where that is going.... Well I posted for the second time now... EVERYONE BETTER WRITE ME BACK!

Welcome Back Cotter.....

Hahaha or should I say Em. I didn't know anybody read this thing anymore, and I've been slacking. It's good to read some new material, although Jen I'm sorry the nature of the posts haven't been so uplifting. Keep up the good work.

Its been a hard days night.........

Jen: I'm sorry to hear about yo man, but don't worry a better guy for you will come along. Guys can be total assholes sometimes let me tell ya.. But things will get better and you'll realize that he was just a punk... So go out and have a kick ass time knowing that you can do whatever you want, when you want, and u wont have to worry that you're pissing anyone off! Here are some lyrics that fit the way I feel bout' steve... since some people have been askin me: "what is goin on between you two". (we aren't together!!!)

"I'm drunk off your kiss
For another night in a row
This is becoming too routine for me
But I did not mean to lead you on
And it's all right to pretend
That we still talk
It's just for show, isn't it
It's my fault that it fell apart

Just maybe
You need this
And I didn't mean to
Lead you on

You were everything I wanted
But I just can't finish what i've started
There's no room left here on my back
It was damaged long ago
Though you swear that you are true
I still pick my friends over you
(My friends over you)

Please tell me everything
That you think that I should know
About all the plans you made
When I was nowhere to be found
And it's all right to forget
That we still talk
Its just for fun, isn't it
It's my fault that it fell apart

Cuz maybe you need this
And I didn't mean to
Lead you on

You were everything I wanted
But I just can't finish what i've started
There's no room left here on my back
It was damaged long ago
Though you swear that you are true
I still pick my friends over you
(My friends over you)

Just maybe you need this
You need this...
And I didn't mean to
Lead you on

You were everything I wanted
But I just can't finish what I've started
There's no room left here on my back
It was damaged long ago
Though you swear that you are true
I still pick my friends over you"

here we go

I know you all dont want to look at my same picture again but I remember on Alex's blog people would write stuff and have little tiny pictures of them underneath their posts. I'm seeing if this can do the same thing. To start posting your own pics.... click on the little picture in the thought bubble looking thingie and download "hello." Then fool around with it and see what you can do! This is so exciting, I am so easily amused.

Look I can post pics!!! 

The fall of 2004

Everyone check their emails for my address and phone number for the fall of 2004 and spring of 2005. I forgot to add... the town in Charleston, IL. In case you didn't know.
I also know who my roommate is. Her name is Kirby and she's from Woodridge, which is a suburb of Chicago I think... or a village about the size of Godfrey around Chi-town. I have not contacted her yet, but yeah.

I still read

I admit i havent read the blogger in a while cause i havent been at school. so i hope you get your job back (if you want it). the summer has been good so far but if Mitch was living here it would be great. Iam really thinking about getting another job so i could afford to move into a apt with him. The other job will be at Save a lot with Kevin Bagle only working about 10-15 hours a week. My mother dosen't want me to do that at all. But i think mitch living here is that important to me. He is cool kid and he fits in well with all my friends (i wish i knew him in high school) The one thing i dont like is all my (girl) friend think he is hot and i hear about it all the time!! It is something i can get over it. this summer has so much promis i wish that the summer will go good for me and everybody else.

DAVE IS ONLY 27 DAY AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If anybody reads this over the summer...

I am sitting at home and very bored. Sometimes having a lot of free time isn't that fun after all.
I called the Bakery today to try and ask about my old job. I really would rather not work there this summer but I may need the money. I don't think Karl wants me anyways, I called him today and he was busy and hasn't called me back. Better for me, I can decide if I really want to go back.
So far this summer, I have been spending most of my leisure time with Diane, Cory, Mitch and Jen. Also, Andy. We went to the City Museus this weekend. I am bruised up like a sonofabiotch, but it was all worth it.
Last night, Cory, Jen and I went to Mitch's and saw Big Fish.

IF U HAVEN'T SEEN IT, I highly recommend it.

Hey I have an idea.... gee I hope someone reads this at least or this next post will be worthless....

Wowie, wow, wow, wow

Blogger is different now. How strange, but likeable.

I'm home now, and it's not that interesting. But I did just get home so let's practice some patience.

My "Last One" in Cougar

I had a the best last night at SIUE.

Thomas, Beth, Diane, Megan, Amy and Adam came to play sand volleyball, and Dan met us down there. Thomas bought me some McDonald's :) for passing my sophomore year in college hehe.

Later, Brennan and Amber came and played too, and Brennan left but came back later. When Thomas, Beth, Amy and Adam left, Mitch and Cory showed up, equipped with Sam Adams and Rolling Rock- free for the ladies :) (the low carb version of course ;)) We played some sand volleyball and went back to the apartment, cleaned up a little, and played a little @$$hole. Rachel Lowe was there when I got back to the apartment also.

When Mitch, Cory, Diane and Megan left, I was not ready for bed so I called Brennan to see if he was still over there. I went to Dan's and we went to Brennan's on the 400 side to hang out and have a little wine. By 5 am, I went with Dan on a short drive to do his rounds..... and look for a microwave for his apt. The sun was about to come up, but I was about to fall asleep, and I laid down until 9:30, when I got up to clean.

And then I left SIUE, never to return as a student again. Great night, good way to end it.

"The Last One"- I feel like a good friend has just died

I know a few of you saw the very last episode of Friends ever last night. What did everybody think?? I already knew what was going to happen in advance. I cheated. I went online and searched for Season 10 spoilers. I have no life. It was better to watch it, thats for damn sure.

So Rachel and Ross eh? It's my dream come true!!!! You just know everybody has been pulling for them since Season 1. I want a Ross :( I know, its make believe.

But if you think about it, it's hard to let Friends go. Even though Emily has the DVDs, and there are 3 seasons more to come out on DVD..... and I know re-runs will still be on.... It's just that this show has been on since we were 10 years old!!!! We are now 20. A huge chunk of our lives was during a time when Friends was a staple of pop culture.

I don't know anyone who is a true fan of the show that did not cry last night. Emily and I included.

We'll miss you Phoebe, Monica, Rachel, Ross and Chandler. We still get to see Joey. Let's just hope that Joey, the spinoff, does not flop.

My last day and I'm all alone

Sorry, I know I've been talking about leaving this place so much recently, but seriously, its the ned of an era.

I'm all packed up, for the most part, and lots of people are already gone. Erika left this morning but will be back later for her couches and some more stuff. Kate ran home last night to take a load of stuff home and has not returned. I'm all alone, with no TV, no one is online, and I'm lonely.

I am looking forward to tonight though. I cleaned the apartment a bit, and people are coming to play sand volleyball. I told a lot of people 6:00, and a lot of other people said they can't make it until later. So the way I view it, I have two waves of people wanting to play sand volleyball, which means endless fun for me. I'll let u know how that goes if you don't show up.

Just venting

The other day i went on a rambling bender, but i was just venting. I haven't seen that mickey kid since and i have had time to think about it. I still not going to take shit from him i will just make him throw the first punch so it won't be my problem.

Yes, think god that LCCC is coming to an end. All my friends are coming home (some for longer that others DIANE). The fact that i almost done is great. Then SIUC, the main problem is i will be 21, well would you call that a problem????

Man i just started thinking about it 21. It sounds so old, it feel like just yesterday we were in the pit playing hackey sack. now before i know it i will be able to go drinking with my mother!(you know i going to, but i don't know if i could deal with guy hitting on her) (So, Should i stay or should i go- The Clash) I have wanted to be 21 for so long and now it is so close. Will it be that great?

What am i thinking i will be the best time of my life!!!!!

Bye Bye Macomb

I hate to say it but I am going to miss this place. When I first got here WIU was all I could talk about. I remember coming home for the first time Labor Day Weekend and sporting Western everything. (I know some of you got sick and tired of me talking about the place too.) Well this past year hasn't been the best. Something changed. Starting second semester I was so sick of this place! So I decided to move to Texas. Some people have thought oh what a stupid idea but you know what? I have the chance and I'm not going to pass it up. There could be something for me there!
Yesterday I moved out two of my favorite guys on the floor, Billy and Collin. When a bunch of us walked them to their cars guess who starting crying? Me of course! All at once so many flashbacks of drunken good times and just times we chilled rushed through my head. I couldn't help myself. Then I went to visit my floor from last year and as V walked me out I started to cry again making her cry.
Today, I am moving out along with almost everyone on the floor. I basically said good bye to the people that I will miss but there are still a few that will make me cry. I will not have any time to live over or party with these guys again probably. Except for Bill and Nick b/c they will be in STL next weekend, hopefully. So as I pack I can't help but hold back tears. Now my throat and chest hurts. I will miss this place so much and i'm not even gone! Well, not the school but the friends I made.
I don't get it...I don't like change but I do it so much. I change so many things in my life and I don't know how I can keep doing it. If leaving here after 2 years is hard what am I going to do when I leave for Texas?

It wasn't all bad of course.

And now for things I liked about SIUE.

1. Jennifer, someone that no one would have paired me with in high school, lived with me for one semester. And it was fun. We fooled everyone didn't we Jen?

2. Sand Volleyball, which takes up most of my spare time when I'm lucky, must be the most fun I've had in awhile.

3. My bed. It may be small but it sure is comfy. For some reason, I enjoy the closed-in space.

4. AKL Informal. Ryan may not have been the best boyfriend, but that night was one of the funnest nights of my life, and I'll never forget it.

5. Bad Bands in the Goshen. When it's boring at C & I, you can be sure there's some off the wall band playing in the Goshen that day to keep you awake. Yay guy who plays Dave songs.

6. Hot foreign guy. I don't know who he is but he's gorgeous, and he makes bus rides a joy.

7. Cougar Village. It's nice to have an entire apartment to manuever in. And the atmosphere is nice too (butt-print window guy, and random people walking around constantly)

8. Woodland Hall. The Wood. My first on-campus home.

9. Ashley. Another unlikely match, we got along quite well. Unfortunately we didn't become buddies until it was almost too late. Good news tho, she'll be at Eastern with me!

10. Dan and Phil. My fave two guys from the Wood. These two studs have to be two of my favorite people I've met here. Although I don't see Phil much anymore, I hope I can at least catch him to say goodbye. And Dan, hopefully I will see sometime over the summer.

11. Blue phlox patch on the path. I found a flower next to the Alpha House while walking home from class one day. It made me happy.

12. Raquetball at the VC. Enough said.

13. David and Justin. Too bad I didn't hang out with the guys upstairs more. I'll sure miss them.

14. Classical Mythology. Sad that I'm putting a class on here, but it really was right up my alley.

15. The heads sculpture. It's not gone folks, its hiding behind the art building.

and finally.....
the last reason I liked SIUE, yet one of the reasons I want to leave it:

16. Close proximity to home.

Whut I Lerned at SIU Extenshun

HELL YES. I AM DONE WITH SCHOOL. Of course, I have one more day left at C & I, but that's small compared to the fact that I am done with school. So, I'm making the best of what's left for me here at SIUE. Tonight, I played sand volleyball with Dan, Brennan, Amber, and Mo..... my volleyball buddies. Then we ran to Moto Mart for fountain sodas, we are so fun! Well, I think we are, and I really enjoyed myself.

I got to thinking. I know that its useless to wish you had done something when you just didn't- but I can't help but think. Could SIUE been a little better if I had done some things differently? It's true, you do learn from your mistakes, and here's what I learned, and what I'm taking to Eastern with me next year.

*Be careful who you date. You might later find out that you blocked the wrong people out, and let the wrong ones in. Hind sight is a pain in the ass.

*Don't meet all your friends through someone you already know. Her friends may not be the people you like to hang out with the most, and before you know it, you haven't met anyone but them. You and your friend aren't the same, and you might be able to pick your own friends a little better if you tried.

*Just because someone is your best friend one year, doesn't mean you're her top priority the next year. You can't compete with a penis. Stop trying, and let it go.

*Your friends from high school may really stay your best friends. Worked for me.

*Everything takes effort. Some people are not willing to give that effort just because you are. They suck, and they're not worth the struggle.

*You really can do anything you want if you put your mind to it. I always thought it was bullshit but look at me, I went from 4 year SIUE student to moving to EIU in 2004.

*Some people, no matter how hard you try, just won't get along with you. That's their personality; there's nothing you can do. It's harder picking roommates than one would think. Better luck going with the random roomie.

Damn SIUE Worm runs my mood

I got a virus on my computer. Unlike regular people, I have a certain dependency on the internet, mainly AIM, because I keep in touch with everybody via it. But NOW my computer has a virus and will not stay running. It likes to restart itself a lot. So I am in the commons for awhile bullshitting with you people until I am ready to give in to those final exams I have coming up.

Cory, its gonna be okay. Like Diane said, all your fave people, and mine, are coming home soon!! (and oh hey- me too. and instead of being 30 minutes away I will be a mere 5, and you know thats nice.)

Everyone good luck on finals and I'll see you sooner if not later. And I'll talk to you soon if the tech people get on the job tomorrow.

we like r rated language here, but not x, cory

i had to edit your post. you shoudln't use last names, b/c emily pointed out they can be found on google and whatnot if you try hard enough. also, i dont want to get in trouble, so use asterisks to bleep yourselves out

Don't drop the bomb b/c you might drop the soap!!!

Omg, Cory is crazy!!! J/K. Everyone has days and weeks like those, but for girls we get off easy and get to use a term for it...PMS. If any girl tells someone they are PMSing everyone understands! No one realizes that guys have PMS too.

Then there are just those time when everything sucks and life is too hard and stressful. "Twenty three and so tired of life"-DMB(Dancing Nancies). Even Dave went through it! Don't worry, it'll all pass.

Don't beat that kid up! You could go to jail! I don't want to worry about you not dropping the soap!

There is a bright side....Me, Mitch, and Andy are coming home!!

What the f*ck!!!!!!

I'm tired of everything the Cancer,school, most of the people at school, the radio station, and Peter (my journalism teacher). I want it all to stop, when school is done i will sit in my room for a week and do nothing. I feel like i'm going to blow up and just beat the shit out of the first person that pisses me off. By the looks of it the luckey winner will be Mikey (a radio kid & the bass player in nolan's band). He is such a huge fag he is asking for it. The next time he mouths at me or says anything that i don't like i will just f*ck his day up. I don't see him for a couple of days so that (beep) is fine for now. Today in class he said some choice words to me and the more i think about it the more pissed off i get. The fact is the comments were uncalled for and complety out of line. I not going to let this little (beep) say anything about me or my friends anymore. I not going to think twice about beating the shit out of him.
Now, i'm at the radio station and the mouse for the station computer suck (beep) i cant win!!!!!! What the f*ck is everybody's life like this?

Porn and chicken

Ben Folds and Rufus Wainright...f**kin right! Guster's awesome too. I don't know if I'll have the money to go though. I don't have a job for summer yet. If anyone knows of any place that is hiring let me know!!

WIU...sniff...sniff

Ok so this weekend made me realize that I am going to miss the people at WIU. This weekend was so awesome b/c everyone went out of their way to make sure my last weekend here was unforgetable. Friday night we went to the bars then a house party. At the bars we watched Collin beat the pants off guys playing pool. He is a pool shark for sure. When we were walking to the party I passed these guys and they were like wow she hot, blah blah blah. Then we walked the opposite way and one of the guys hollered, "if i never see you again, i love you." That cracked me up. When I got back to the dorms I dipped! It was actually pretty good. I kind of like it!
Saturday night we went to the bars again and my whole floor was there. There are only a few things I can remember. In the beginning of the night, I got married (not for real though). Nick, from my floor, decided that we should get married b/c our favorite band is NIRVANA, our favorite hockey team is the blues, our favorite baseball team is the cardinals, and our favorite beer is bud light. I mean come on...this guy is me but a guy! At the end of the night Billy and Rick decided to have a jam session after the bar and I was their guest of honor. Every song was about me! I can't remember the middle though:) I was sick the entire time but I wasn't going to let a cold ruin my last time to get drunk at WIU!!

GUSTER concert

OH AND CHECK OUT to learn about the band guster.com
.......P.S. (They have a song called Diane. wink wink, Diane)

Colds suck

Jen the site is www.forwardgarden.com.

I'm in the same boat with Laura! I am totally sick but I am starting to feel better b/c I have been taking lots of cold stuff so I am going to go out!!

What a way to spend the day.

I haven't been on here to post in awhile. By that I mean I have not been posting as often as usual. So, it's my last full weekend here at school and I'm sick. So I'm staying home. Thinking about maybe renting a movie and working on some study guides for finals. Also I have to work 9-5 tomorrow so I thought it'd be best to take a load off and do nothing.

Sorry Jen and Em. I did want to go to my last AKL party, but on the bright side, they're never ALL THAT much fun anyways.

I smell like poo?

Why didn't anybody tell me! you could of said "hay, you smell like poo" that wouldn't bother me but to find out like this. I would of told you. I haved to go and take a long over due shower.

Who does that???

Ok so yes, I didn't recognize Fab. When we walked by him I didn't even look at his face. I saw the hair and was like pshhhh...I'm so dumb! I would give anything to go back and pay attention to "the help." As bummed as I was I couldn't let it ruin my time at the concert and it didn't. They kicked butt!!!!

Is that the drummer from the Strokes???

So Mitch sees this guy walk off the tour bus with drumsticks. He says, "hey, is that the drummer from the Strokes?" Diane replies, "NO, its not." Laura reasons that since the guy has short hair, he CAN'T be a member of the Strokes.... that's kinda like their trademark.

So we walk in. Wait for the concert to start.

Mitch sees the same drumsticks sitting at the drums. The person I thought was "help" kind of like a roadie, walks onstage with the rest of the band.

Julian announces, "hey everyone, Fab got a haircut."
