Here are some things that have happened.
-------------------
Prom was a bust.
Post Prom was better.
Post Post Prom was awesome.

---------------------
Found my roommate (her name is Keli and is awesome.)
---------------------
Ordered a new laptop. (<- fun!)
---------------------
I work with Lowes. ( I never mentioned that.....)

I get money.

Money is good.
--------------------
Had a grad party.

With my brother,
but it was still fun.
--------------------
Elphie (my pup) had a tumor removed :(
Well good it was removed, bad she had it
--------------------
I bought 3 tattooed Mollies (fish.) at the pet store last night.

One died this morning.

His name was Tyler.
-------------------
Don't buy tattooed fish, or read about how they tattoo fish, it is sick.
-------------------
There was probably a lot more that has happened, but I can't think of anything.
-------------------
Oh Chase (my cuz and Tylers God-Father) wants to hurt me for killing his godson. Even though he died because he was tattooed.
I hope.

---------------------

What was the next thing? Moments. Right.

I love making new friends.

Friends in which I can watch movies, eat ice cream, and tip while sitting.

Oh friends, how I love you.

Don't worry, your problems will no longer be problems because...it will all work out in the end.

----------------------

And new readers.

And I plan on trying to be a veggie at Northland.

This will be hard.

------------------------

Love you all,
Kristin.

Sorry's, News, and other things.

Greetings all!

sorry it has been..like..2 months since I last posted.

i'v been uber busy. (like really busy.)

---------------------------------------

-> Fenenga Hall. (amazing.)

----------------------------------

school is almost over.

( i can't wait. )

prom is right around the corner.

got my dress.

got everything a girl could need.

except for a date.

(not that i really care)

oh, and today i found out that the group i was going to couldnt fit me at their table.
(prom has gotten really complicated, to the point that it is not fun anymore)

so at my school's and the school's prom i was going to go to, you have to pick set tables, they have to be okayed by the dean and put together ahead of time.

and i couldn't fit.

most likely because i didn't have a date.

BUT-

i found out that i can sit with people at my school...
...so not all hope is lost.

------------------------------------------

i have been watching a lot of movies lately.

mostly because i have been so... bored.

i hope that changes at northland. (which i am almost sure of)


------------------------------------------

RENT was on tv today.

but they cut good parts of songs, so i just poped in the DVD and watched it over again...

------------------------------------------

wow, my life has really gotten boring.

that kind of sucks. haha

-----------------------------------------

well there are a few things i could tell all of you,

but i won't.

because, well, that would ruin a lot.

ha.

--------------------------------------

oh and happy mothers day.

this is my mom.

i love her. <3 <3 <3

even if we yell at each other.

-------------------------------------

i guess that is it.

i will update soon.

Eric Whitacer, life lessons, and well something else.

6 days ago I had the chance to work with Eric Whitacer, a WONDERFUL composer, on his tecno opera (yes sir, that is correct. tecno. opera.) titled Paradise Lost: Shadows and Wings what a crazy experience.

We performed in The Auditorium theater in Chicago, that it self is an honor.

But Eric (yes. to quote him, "Please, call me Eric") conducted us.

OMG HIS HAIR!

http://ericwhitacre.com/

it was.. i can't really describe it.

-------------------------
I really dislike when a hot guy gets back together with his ex-gf.

I really....really dislike it.
-------------------------
^ like a lot. really.
-------------------------

I havn't really been creative lately, but at the same time, this has been the most creative I have been in a long ass time.
- Don't know hot to describe it.

haha

-------------------------
Oh yeah, Life lessons.

I have some.

But I can't really tell them to you.

Because they are my lessons.

But you could email me if you wanna hear about them :)
------------------------

Something else......

I just got a text.

Ttyl ya'll.

Sorry this is so short.

I have very little words at the moment.

Death....and Sorry

The Death-

my knees feel weak

a numb sensation brings me to the ground

he is dead

that can’t be right

he is a good kid

i am sorry darling, he is gone

no.

not now.

focus on the good darling

how can i?

he is gone.

no he isn’t.

death.

i could only hope he ended up somewhere

good

somewhere without the pain and hardships of live

but still has the love of the heart

somewhere he can look down on me

somewhere safe from the hate

somewhere he can see me



blank

it mocks me

tells me i am doing wrong

or that i am stuck



the pain will never go away

not really

but that doesn’t mean you have to live by it

doesn’t mean you need to plan your life around it

right?



death is pain

death is sad

death is impossible to avoid



but he is better now

away from suffering

away from me.

-----------------------

Hello Readers!
I am so sorry I have not updated lately..
My bad.
I just wanted to give you all something,
so you know I am not dead in a ditch somewhere.

-----------------------
Oh, Happy Hearts Day.
As always,
I will sit alone.
Most likely watching David Boreanaz without his shirt on.

Finals! and failing. (<- oh blah.)

Oh Finals!
How much I hate you, well hate is a strong word...so strongly dislike.


But really,
they give me headaches.

Classes either watch a movie or are hammered down with 150-200 problem finals that may take longer then the 75 minutes provided.

At least we get out before lunch.

I will be home at 10:20. That is pretty awesome.

Makes me want to go to college. <- (more then I already do?) The freedom is absolutely wonderful. Really, it is. Were you ever supposed to be somewhere, lets say 'School' or 'Work' and weren't there? You are just driving around, the town is quiet, and you just think, "Hey, this is fun, I wish I didn't have to work or learn for a living, then I would be able to stop and smell the roses every once in a while, or maybe even sleep in the roses? That would be cool."
--------------------
Okay, so as some of you know, I am in a creative writing class in my school, and it is rather...easy.

All it is is keeping up with the deadlines.

Like life.

The class is basically life.

An easy A.

What I don't understand is how people are failing.

Does that mean they will be unsuccessful in life?
For their sakes, I hope not.

Truly, I don't understand how someone can fail.

Here are the "rules" or "guidelines" for the class;
•every 2 weeks turn in about 20-25 pages of raw work.(could be ANYTHING)
•at the end of the semester turn in 20+ pages of portfolio work which must be reviewed by our teacher.
•and...that is about it.

if you are failing? then you just aren't working.

which makes me utterly disappointed in today's society.

Snow, old enlightenments, and thoughts

I love snow. It makes me happy.
I dislike small keyboards. They make me mad.
I like black teas with honey and milk. It makes me smile on the inside.

Did you realize the difference in Love and Like are Ov and Ik? oikv? huh?

Weird.

I started to write a book. It is weird. But cool at the same time. It is a book about life. And what things really mean. But to be honest, I have not gotten that far into the actual book. I like talking about myself. It makes me feel more accomplished. :) so I made a choice, and that choice was that I would write a post on here and give my head a break.

So I found this, it was a note I wrote myself in August.

Dear Kristin,
You are amazing. Here are some things to remember.
1. Boys are stupid.
2. Class comes first
3. Joe is mean
4. Work Sucks
5. Northland is amazing! Long live the lumberjacks!
6. Go to college
7. And love life because life is to short otherwise, there is no point in being angry at people porque it is a waste of energy.


Love ya!

Last month I read this over again, and realized I changed.

And I did not really like that change.

I was thinking about little petty things that didn't matter, and was not looking at the whole picture. I think everyone should have something like this. A reminder of how you want to life your life.

If dreams change? Change it. But don't change something that doesn't need to be changed. When the mind is distracted, it looks for comfort in situations. It will make you do things you normally don't which will cause more of a tension between yourself. Peoples paths change, but their ideals shouldn't, unless new information is given in the specified subject.

Example A. Boys. As a teenager my mind get me distracted much easier when a good looking guy is in the room. The idea of true love and soul mates clouds judgment which will lead to heartache.

Sometimes that slap in the face is necessary. Because otherwise, one could miss their opportunity for greatness.

I have seen love work, and fail.

I have seen one of the main things needed in a relationship is tolerance.
You have no idea how many people come to my little drive thru just to talk about what their husbands and wives make them do. I feel like I am a different kind of barista.

I get paid to make you drinks and listen to your life story, nod in the right places, and then at the end tell you that you are right, and that you should get more respect, but it wont change, because you love your spouse/gf/bf/whatever.

Does that mean that it is stupid of me to fall into the same traps? The love traps? These "take me or leave me" shit?

Probably does.

Back to dreams.

A single life can touch so many lives. Just seeing someone every day. There are customers that come and order the same drinks. I know them as their drinks. If i did not see them in their car, I probably would not even recognize them.

At work we have these stamp cards, every drink you buy, you get a stamp, when you fill the card you get a free drink. And a lot of our regulars leave their cards here for us to stamp. I go through the cards and we have so many full cards for old regulars. Ones I have not had the chance to meet. Every card is a person, a person we (as a company) know. We served each one of them. Every person someone meets has a family, a job, a pet maybe?, they all have thoughts, all have memories, and they all have a heart. They all loved, and they all saw death.

Think about how many thought you have a day. Then think about how many people are in your town. They all have lives, all have what you have, may not be exact, but they have something like that. Then think about how many people are in the world. They all have felt love. They have all felt pain, and anger. They all have thoughts. They all have blood flowing through their veins.

They all have a mother.

A father.

A name.

A favorite food.

Everyone of them.

It is hard to think that one of them can kill another.

And in an instant, their thoughts are gone.

Their family crying.

Their friends confused.

No heat to their body.

Just nothingness.

A mass that weighs down on this already crowded earth.

And it all started with a thought.

----------------------
Crazy huh?

What about this.

Love.

You have felt it.

So have every other person on this earth.

That bubbly feeling when you look at the someone special.

That sense, when you know that they have walked into the room.

That want.

That, that everything.
----------------

We have all felt it.

Maybe not to the same degree as others.

But it was still felt.

We are more the same then different.

We all have the same kind of DNA.

Same types of feelings,

as do other creatures.

We all have the same chances to do something great. So don't let the little things get in the way. But then again, don't forget those little feelings, because those individual feelings are what seem to separate us. They forge our own paths, and create our ideals, our individual morals, as well as our hopes and dreams.

So basically, what I am saying is, "Live life to the fullest, because you never know when it will be over. Don't live with any regrets, because what happens was meant that way."



"La La La La La La La

There's a little creepy house
In a little creepy place.
Little creepy town
In a little creepy world.
Little creepy girl with
Her little creepy face,
Saying funny things that you've never heard.
Do you know what it's all about?
Are you brave enough to figure out?
Know that you could set your world on fire,
If you're strong enough to leave your doubts.

Feel it, breathe it, believe it and
You'll be walking on air.
Go try, go fly so high and
You'll be walking on air.
You feel this, unless you kill it -
Go on and you're forgiven.
I knew, that I could feel that -
I feel like I'm walking on air"
Walking On Air- Kerli

Headaches and unfortunate adventures.

Oh my. So today I woke up with the biggest headache.

Not only that but I had my Spanish Oral Final today.

We roll a dice which basically leads to our death.

I roll a 6.

Fuck.

If it would have been a 3 or 4, even a 1, I would have been fine.

I had to talk about a party I went to.

First thing that comes out of my mouth?

"Mierda que no sé esta"
Which means, Crap I don't know this one.

My teacher responds,
"Want me to just give you a Zero."

My thoughts?

"Umm. No. Why would I want a zero. Maybe you could give me a 1 and two 0's...in that order.." but no.

I then start talking about how I ate soup.

It was muy delicioso.

My head hurts.
---------------------------
So I got my schedule for next semester.
I am a Senior and don't know where my math class is.

I think it is in the detention room.

Is that a sign?

Oh God, I hope not.
---------------------------
And to make things worse, I drank ALL of my Chai Tea with a drop of milk before school started.

And that never happens.
--------------------------
I am kind of scared to drive.

It hasn't been a good day.

And it is only 9:10
--------------------------

bye now.
