Dec 19 – lifeguard recert. Later Oly Christmas party/secret santa. Afterwards went to sean’s house with laura, sarahg, gia, childers, and molly. watched 40 yr old virgin in sean’s awesomely cool room Dec 21 – last minute shopping. work with sean and laura. gia, lauren wong, maureen, and sarah met us at oly. We all went to barnes and noble starbucks for some hot chocolate, magazine reading, and chit chat Dec 22 – oly ski trip! Sarahg and I rode up to alpine with sean. It took a really long time to get there for some reason, but we finally got there and hit the slopes. I really sucked and fell a lot at first cause it was my first time skiing… but everyone stuck by me and by the end I was a pro. sean was the only snowboarder that did not cut us off. The ski lift was our fav part. On our way home we went into the toll lane with the automatic change thing, and no matter how much money we put in it, the stupid arm would not go up and let us go. Sean got out of the car and started picking up change from the ground and chucking it in the thing, but no dice. Finally we just backed out and went into another lane. Later we blew through an ipass lane. Take that, stupid robbing state of Illinois. ::shakes fist:: Dec 23 – vfw show with mikejahn and covello. Mmm krispy kreme and Coventry Dec 24 – Christmas eve. Church and dinner with the family Dec 25 – Christmas! Santa was pretty good to me. Dec 26 – portillo’s and garden state at mikejahn’s with mccarthy for a bit. Dec 27 – work with sarah. Afterwards went to wendy’s with laura, sarah, and Kayla. After that went to riley and chilled at the park, talked about new years etc. Dec 28 – work till 6. left and came back to meet sarah at oly at 7. went to panera for dinner. Came back at 8:30 to meet gia, laura, and maureen. Went to gia’s to watch the syphilis lifetime movie, shes too young. Had some good laughs. Went to mickey d’s and threw stuff at the minivan in front of us cause they were jerks. Dec 29 – plans to hang out with someone made me really happy, but I was kinda let down when it didn’t. decided on oly bdubs night then. steve miles, joe, brian d, kari, brian o, gia, Lauren wong, sarah c, sean, molly, amy, megan lyons, maureen, mel, and kendra were also there (I think I got everyone). Dec 31 – woodfield and water works with the family for mom’s bday. Then time to get ready for new years! Went over to paula’s dinner party around 8. sarahg and brad were already there. Other people came throughout the evening, mostly bg’ers. We talked and played guesstures and took pics and ate and had a grand old time. We had quite a crowd by the time 12 was approaching. We got all decked out in masks, and hats and noisemakers and drinks and all gathered around the tv to watch the ball drop. As we counted down from 10, I realized that there was not really anywhere else id want to be at that moment. Hugs and wishes for a happy new year were shared. I was sort of swept away in that moment. A new year, a chance to start with a clean slate, forget the bad from 2005, but keep the good with me. Its now 2006, the year of graduation. The next 5 months are going to go by so fast… Jan 1 – slept till laaaate. Got up and showered, and hung around the house. later went bowling with mikejahn, covello, dan, eliza, sarah fader, derek, jill, nick, and tony. Afterwards went back to mikejahn’s and chilled in his room, listened to musica and dane cook. Today – lounged around the house. went to shoe carnival and ulta for shoes and shampoo. Stopped by oly for this week’s schedule. And now im sitting here in awe of how fast these two weeks went by, thinking of all the good times, not wanting to go back to school and finals and homework and blahhhhh. But it will be ok.
"This Will Be My Year" - Semisonic Thursday's crush is a Friday night rush And a Monday morning cry It's the tail that you keep chasing And it gets away every time
New Years Eve and it's hard to believe Another Zodiac's gone around While you drank yourself high on hoping And watched the ceiling spin from the ground
Counting down from ten it's time To make your annual prayer Secret Santa in the sky When will I get my share
Then you tell yourself What you want to hear Cause you have to believe This will be my year
Pound your fist and cross it off your list But you know you're not that strong When the man at the stop light catches you Singing along to a brand new song
Well maybe it's Trash or the overnight smash that brings a Ship crashing through your wall So you can make your grand departure From a world getting way too small
One wheel in the ditch another Spinning in the air Put your pedal down to the floorboards but you're not Getting anywhere
Then you tell yourself What you want to hear Cause you have to believe This will be my year
here’s some pics from fun over the past two weeks. ( winter break )
