Are you aware of what you make me feel, baby? right now I feel invisible to you, like I'm not real Didn't you feel me lock my arms around you? Why'd you turn away? Here's what I have to say
I was left to cry there Waiting outside there Grinning with a lost stare That's when I decided
Why should I care? Cause you weren't there When I was scared I was so alone You, You need to listen I'm starting to trip I'm losing my grip And I'm in this thing alone
Am I just some chick you placed beside you to take somebody's place? When you turn around can you recognize my face? You used to love me you used to hug me but that wasn't the case everything wasn't okay
I was left to cry there Waiting outside there Grinning with a lost stare That's when I decided
Why should I care? Cause you weren't there when I was scared I was so alone You! You need to listen I'm starting to trip I'm losing my grip and I'm in this thing alone
Crying out loud I'm crying out loud crying out loud I'm crying out loud
Open your eyes open up wide
Why should I care? Cause you weren't there when I was scared I was so alone
Why should I care? Cause you weren't there when I was scared I was so alone
Why should I care? If you don't care then I don't care we're not going anywhere

okay so i have pretty much abandonded this live journal business. but for now i think im just going to use it to post song lyrics. a lot of songs have hit home recently. so thats that.
Because of you- Kelly Clarkson I will not make the same mistakes that you did I will not let myself cause my heart so much misery I will not break the way you did You fell so hard I've learned the hard way, to never let it get that far
Because of you I never stray too far from the sidewalk Because of you I learned to play on the safe side So I don't get hurt Because of you I find it hard to trust Not only me, but everyone around me Because of you I am afraid
I lose my way And it's not too long before you point it out I cannot cry Because I know that's weakness in your eyes I'm forced to fake a smile, a laugh Every day of my life My heart can't possibly break When it wasn't even whole to start with
Because of you I never stray too far from the sidewalk Because of you I learned to play on the safe side So I don't get hurt Because of you I find it hard to trust Not only me, but everyone around me Because of you I am afraid
I watched you die I heard you cry Every night in your sleep I was so young You should have known better than to lean on me You never thought of anyone else You just saw your pain And now I cry In the middle of the night For the same damn thing
Because of you I never stray too far from the sidewalk Because of you I learned to play on the safe side So I don't get hurt Because of you I tried my hardest just to forget everything Because of you I don't know how to let anyone else in Because of you I'm ashamed of my life because it's empty Because of you I am afraid
Because of you Because of you

i know i havent updated in a few days, but this week has been a little "less than stellar" (for those cheney girls) crazy amounts of work due in preperation to going home. of course we managed to have our fun in there... we went to the dashboard concert in elmira on tuesday. it was a lotttttttttt of fun. we got to the college and the tickets were sold out. we couldnt believe it. we kinda smooth talked this guy and he let all six of us in. it was an amazzzzzzzzzzzzzzing show.
thursday night, we went out and got drunkkkk. ouch. it hurt the next morning. escape was closed, and we were sad, but its all good.
friday we went to PA. we had a great time. it was alittle confusing at first who was all going, but it ended up being me cerice allie ash tina anthony champ sweat and james. we had an awesome time. we didnt realyl do all that much the whole weekend besides l ay around, but it was just so good to get away from all the drama and mayhem.
now its back to reality. sad. i h ave to write a paper and i dont wannaaaaaaaaaaaa.
cerice and i are going dress shopping in syracuse tomorrow for the formal. so excited :)
time to write my paper. peace
ps- what do you do if you know something about someone that is dangering themselves. like someone is in physical harm because of something they do to themselves and they dont want anyone to know about it, but they told you. what do you do? they dont want you to tell anyone, but they are in physical harm. helpppp

i know i havent updated in a while, but this cortaca thing really wore me down.
yey for cortaca weekend. everyone loves cortaca weekend. yea not so much. i was on duty thursday and friday night and i nightclerked friday and saturday night. extremely fun (nope). our staff really pulled together though. we were shorthanded, but everyone did a great job and going above and beyond their share of work. i think for the most part we did a really good job of handling everything.
a lot of stuff happened this weekend that really made me think. i dont really wanna get into it though. i dont even know why i wrote that.
i was finally able to talk to trevor. he called me at like 330am on friday. i was so glad to talk to him, i cant even explain it. things are not looking good where he is. one of his friends died last week. can you imagine? he was 20. thats so young. okay, i dont want to talk about it anymore.
i have a 6 page paper due on thursday about upton sinclair. wonderful. i havent started.
i HATE powerpoint, i cant get anything to work right mother trucker. yea.
cerice and i are planning to go out on thursday. hopefully that happeneds. who knows.
PA THIS WEEKENED! yey. i cant wait. i think we are leaving at like 10am on saturday cause im on duty friday. holler.
okay im gonna go get stuff done. maybe not. okay then. comment puhlease <3

im apologizing to anyone who has had to encounter grumpy jill for the past 2 days. im over it i swear. cerice and i got pizza and ice cream today so i think we feel better now. our pores are yelling at us, and our thighs are like WHAT THE HELL....but we are less grumpy now. thank god.
happy birthday to christopher (formally known as sweat) and jill kennedy! i love you guys!!!!!
so heres the news on the cancun trip. cerice and i decided that instead of making everyone miserable about not being able to come this year....we are doing it NEXT spring break. yes ladies and gents, thats spring break 2006! (yea and i STILL wont be 21) okay. so its the same info, hopefully more people will be able to come to this trip then.
going along with trip info....PA round 2 is coming up. we are doing another PA weekend rather soon. we are gonna go saturday and sunday of nove 20th weekend. im on duty friday night, so thats not happening, but we are gonna leave saturday morning. yey :) its the same crowd for the most part, but ive invited janine and michelle from bing :) maybe that can meet my friends from school! anyway, just let me know if anyone wants to come.
im not really looking foward to going home for thanksgiving. im used to having thanksgiving at my house. i love it. and grandpa isnt going to be there which makes me so sad cause ive never spent a thanksgiving without him. hes my canned cranberries lover. hes the only one that backs me up! what am i gonna do without him. maybe this sounds dumb, but im being serious here! whatever. yea so the last week show is friday and thats probably the only thing im looking foward to. i really cant wait. its gonna be so kickass. yeyyyyyyyyy. its at the knitting factory in chelsea. ive never been there. im excited to go somewhere new.
time for staff meetings. later kids. commment please. it would make me smile :)

im sick of being grumpy today. i hate being grumpy. im not a grumpy person. i think maybe i just expect too much of people sometimes and i get let down. im sick of it. i get let down all the time. maybe if i lower my standards for my friends and people i confide in, i wont be disapointed all the time. speaking of which i dont think this trip is going to happen anymore. there arent enough people, so if anyone wants to go please let me know ASAP that you are interested, otherwise i think im just going to have to cancel it.
i woke up late today. i missed a class. i know i broke the pact, but i didnt mean to. my alarm didnt go off, and it sucks. i have to go downstairs to sell ribbons in a few minutes.
i havent heard from trevor in about 3 weeks now. i know i may be over reacting, but this is a big deal for me. everyone keeps telling me that hes busy, and i know he is. but he was so hell bent on making sure he could call me and email me once every week. he told me come hell or high water that he would get a message to me and let me know he was alright. hes in fallujah right now. thats the bad part isnt it? it was on the news last night and i couldnt bare to watch it. its just so painful thinking about how im sitting here in my nice, heated, dorm room watching movies with my friends and i complain about something as stupid as not being able to go to cancun for 8 days with my friends, when he is out there fighting. i cant believe how selfish i am sometimes. im scared for him. i want him to come home. i want things to go back to normal.
sometimes there are things in your past you cant tell people. random i know, but its true. i feel like no matter where i go in life and move on, i have this shadow behind me that just wont go away. just when you think its over, it comes back to haunt you. it was in the past, does it need to come back and ruin college life too? yea i guess it does.
im going to sell ribbons now and try to be happy because who wants to buy ribbons from a grumpy person.

okay so i made a pact with sweat that i am going to go to all of my classes this week. i am on a good track, i went to both of my monday classes, which for me is a good thing. My french final and my sociology final are on the same day, same time which sucks, but oh well, ill change that.
i got a call from the travel agent from our cancun trip thing. okay heres the deal....
we were originally thinking of getting roundtrip airfare and staying at the holiday inn express in cancun. our price was going to be $487 for 4 nights 5 days. the problem here is this...that doesnt include customs taxes, transportation, food, drinks, activities, anything. and its a mile and a half from the beach and from downtown. student adventure travel, who we are looking to book through, gave us a price of $900 for 8 days 7 nights. he said that all of the resorts that they are affiliated with have a 7 night student minimum stay for spring break trips, so even if we wanted to stay for 5 nights, we would still have to pay for 7. this price includes food, 60 hours of free drinks, a vip party pack, trip insurance, our own rep, maid fees, gratuity, airfare, resort, transportation, etc. our luggage would be taken directly to the hotel by the people who work for this company. we would be picked up at the airport by them and they would check us in to the hotel to make sure that everything was okay with our stay. it makes a lot of sense for us to take this package. we would be virtually paying the same amount of money but its a nicer place. and this way it will be easier because we can all leave school at the same time, go home with me and stay at my house and have my parents take us to the airport on saturday to get our plane, come back next saturday and then we can all drive back to school together.
i hope this works because i think its going to be one of the best times of our lives if it does. by the way, this is an open trip. we are trying to get a big group, so i want everyone to come if possible. anyone who thinks they or some of their friends are interested let me know asap.
btw, i think im getting sick again. i just have that feeling. im really not happy about it, and i really dont want to go home to get it checked out. bah
okay im gonna go shower. later kids.

im sooooooooo sick of drama. after last year, i would really be quite content with no more drama for a very long time. if this is the start of this year than we are all in trouble. im sick of people not telling me how they feel. im sick of finding out from another source that someone has a problem with me. we are adults. we need to face our problems because we all have to live together, and no one needs to deal with this shit.
anywayssss, carolyn and jill leave today :( im quite sad about that. i miss having a roomate, and with carolyn here its like i have one. i love it. we are so goofy. we just sang celine dion. yey for celine!
jk and sweat have a birthday coming up so we celebrated this weekend. happy birthday guys! you guys are the best!
cant wait till cerice comes home today. boy have a missed her this weekend.
aright lj readers. im off to enjoy the day. <3 ya! comment!

oh boy. okay so peppermint schnopps. yea. hi. thats all i have to say cause i think carolyn and i said it all last night. we had a lot of fun though. i feel bad for the people that had to listen to us, but no one has said that we were too obnoxious yet.
im so glad jill and carolyn are both here this weekend. when they come to visit i always realize what good friends they are. i mean, i only knew jill for a semester and she left school and we still see eachother like once a month. that is an amazing friendship. and carolyn was my closest friend last year. i thought that i would never see her anymore once she left school. now that shes here i realize how much she means to me and how i wouldnt trade the moments that we have shared for anything. jill and carolyn are sitting in my room right now...of course they are picking on me cause they find that hysterical! and its like nothing ever changed. we are the same people we were last year, we have just grown up a little. i miss them a lot and i really hope that we all stay in touch over the years. carolyn and i will live in the city and be busy career girls. jill and i will be twins until we are old and grey. i love them to death i really do.
my cortland friends are amazing. all of them. i really really am so glad that i have met each and every one of them. no matter how many intoxicated stupid moments that we have together, a few of them have gotten me through some tough times, and some rough nights. i know this is a little emo, but i really do love you guys :) and those who i just met, and maybe we arent as close as i am with some of my other friends from last year...i hope things get as close with us.
okay im done being emo now. well not emo but sappy. aright i am going to go hang with my girlies. comment kids! pssst. if you comment i will give you a kissssss!

i know i know. i havent updated in like months. but i keep forgetting. im done forgetting though, im here to be faithful again.
i went home this weekend, which was good. i saw andrea marie for the first time since august and it was very heartfelt. i loved it. i also got to see my boys from old nav 5654 who i love to death. we went to an interesting party saturday night to say the least. I saw my loves from the firehouse which was nice. seeing them always makes me miss summer. i had a pretty uneventful weekend really. halloween with the kiddies was fun. we had the neighborhood halloween party which was good cause i got to see everyone. ehh not to much else. oh yea and i saw grandpa and aunt patty which made me smile because i thought i wasnt going to see them until christmas.
okay so i came back to school at midnight monday night/tuesday morning so i missed my monday classes. i went to all of my tuesday classes. then sweat and reese and me pulled an all-nighter so we could take laurie to the airport at 430 am. we tried so hard to stay up. we went to dennys at like 3 and we watched the day after tomorrow. we had a really fun night though. so many funny things happen when you are deathly tired. anyways, i missed all of my classes today and all of my meetings too because i was so tired i felt sick. it was NOT good. but it was worth it. tonight i have a staff meeting from 830-1030 and then cerice and i are fundraising at the nightclerk desk until 2am. ugh. then i am going to beddddddd.
okay so my most exciting thing EVER is that we are planning a spring break trip FINALLY! im so excited :) we wanted to stay at like a 5 star place, and we got a really good rate for this all inclusive place whihc was amazing, but its $800 and its a little too long of a trip for us. so this is what we have planned right now. we are going to go monday march 7 thru friday march 11th. we are going to stay at the holiday inn express in cancun (trashy i know, but its $20 a night per person!) and we are going to have an amazing time. its like $487 for 5 days. which is incredible. im so psyched. anyone that wants to come with us this is open to everyone. we would like to get a huge group. i am going to give everyone the info and i will book the hotel,. but everyone is going to have to book their own airfare to insure that everyone gets seats. IM SO EXCITED.
Carolyn is coming to visit tomorrowwwwwwwwww :) i havent seen her in what feels like FOREVER. i cant wait, we are going to have an amazing weekend. Jill K is coming too! MY BEST FRIENDS ARE REUNITED! THIS IS AMAZING! unfortunately cerice and laurie are both home for the weekend which makes me very sad. but hopefully we will still have fun.
okay its staff meeting time. peace kids. leave me comments to make me smile :)

friday night was soooooooo interesting. lets say i had a LOT of fun. cerice my girlfriend was my pal that night. i dont think i can/should repeat the events of that night in my live journal, so if you want to hear about it, just ask.
friday afternoon i had called my sister to come visit for the weekend. i was having a really bad week and i needed a little cheering up from the little sis. so she came early saturday morning. unfortunately i was not feeling so well. or slash up to par.
so my sissy was here for thw WHOLE freakin weekend! it was awesome. we had a wonderful time. im so glad she came. she makes me so happy.

have you ever looked around and wondered why you do the things you do. actions in the past that you wish you could do over again. i swear i am having like a complete revelation of my second semester and i just cant believe the person i was or the things that i did. i literally have a stomach ache just thinking about it. why?
im looking back and remembering certain things about past relationships. why was i such a bitch to him. why didnt i take time think things through. why did i rush things. why didnt i take the chance to listen to what he had to say. why didnt i look around at my life and realize how lucky i actually was. that is the mystery that is my life i guess.
the fact of the matter is, no matter how much i want to go back and turn back time, i cant. ive been trying for almost a month to do that. to think of ways that i can make things right again. and i guess the answer is, i cant. it just cant be done. whats done is done i guess.
but here is what i want to say to you. im sorry. im sorry for not taking the time to listen to you and understand where you were coming from. im sorry for not stopping and smelling the roses, because if you could only understand how much i want things back that i cant have, then maybe i could feel one ounce of the pain i put on you.
maybe im just saying this because its 3am. or maybe im saying this because it is on my mind 24 hours a day. and i cant make it go away. as much as i would just like to say im over it, whats done is done....i cant, because thats not true. i still want to be with you. its true, i do. i was so lucky. and you know what, i am still lucky. because for a few months i got to understand what it was like to be someones partner in life. i wish i could get it all back.
but i cant.
