So. Update, huh? Here goes...

I got a job. Traffic Manager for the Garfield Group, an advertising and public relations firm in Newtown, about 20 minutes from my house.  What's a traffic manager, you ask? Well, I'll tell you. The Traffic Manager prioritizes, sets deadlines for, and schedules all aspects of each of 10-20 campaign processes while also ensuring that the flow of the process is consistent and efficient, ensuring that everyone has something to do and that it's getting done on time...in a nutshell.  So I lead meetings 3 times a week to get everyone on the same page.  I make schedules for every department based on prioritized deadlines for particular tasks.  I walk around the office and check up on people, asking them what they're doing, how long it's going to take and reminding them of due-dates and obligations.  Basically, I'm Little Miss Organized and everybody's Personal Assistant. Here's the catch: it's just me. The entire Traffic Department is one person - me.  20 campaigns I need to know the ins and outs of so that if the client calls me up and wants the background retouched for their 4 color print ad in the next half hour, I can say, actually I'm sorry but that sort of job can take up to at least 2 hours so please plan accordingly. Yikes...

I guess it's good though...$28,500 good. Which compared to someone I know seems like chicken shit (express) but when you're still living at home it's pretty good. Although now it seems my financial obligations have also increased. I'm now paying my car insurance, student loans, credit card, gas, "rent" and the car payment and gym membership which I already was paying. Yeah. I get a job and all of a sudden I've gotta pay rent...whatever I don't really mind. In all honesty, I don't.  I can afford it, and it's good for me. I mean so as long as I'm not $6000 in debt and scrambling for gas money it's all good :-)

So to make sure I at least look like I know what I'm doing, I spent $300 on business clothes last night at New York and Company. Yay.  So if you go here: http://www.nyandcompany.com/trends/index.jsp you'll see one of the one's that I bought. It's the one all the way on the left - the brown one with the vest :-D so cute! I got a ton of other stuff too but b/c I'm a tard-face, I forgot to get shoes, so that'll be next. Alright I'm bored with typing. Yay for new jobs and sparse updates.

So I'm leaving for Arizona on Friday...just for a vacation so nobody panic. Yeah like anybody cares...Anyway, I can't freaking take how cold it's been recently so I'm super excited to go where it's at least 85 degrees every day.  Thank god. I told my mother not to make me do anything in Arizona. I'm not going on any stupid car tour trips or to any gay Native American Museums. All I'm going to do is sit by the pool, read the DaVinci Code and soak up the sun. If I don't come back tan somebody's gonna get it.

I got a raise at work the other day so now I'm up to $9.00/hour yay! That's b/c I make good food and it looks pretty too. I'm a good worker :-) 

Except I hate everything and everyone right now.  Everyone in this house is pissing me off, ugh and then there's my mother who won't shut up about getting me to tell my boss at work that I want to bartend. Hey genius, there's no bar!  So yeah...I'm way bored. There's nothing to do here except go to work, watch tv and clean my room.  But I don't clean my room. Once again my mother thought she was doing me a favor by "straightening up" in my room and all she did was just totally fuck up my system. It's a mess and I'm too unmotivated and discouraged to do anything about it. I need my sister to help me. She'll get my ass in gear and get me to clean it up. But I hate her too b/c she won't pick up her phone.  Way frustrated tonight... :-(

Sorry for complaining but since the only people who ever read this are those who hate me to begin with, (and Rhian) I'm not really sorry at all. Mothafuck

[	Current Music	|	Van Halen - Panama	]

Not gonna lie, I really really like Van Halen. Always have. For real since about.....4th grade? Probably always will. So I ask you, does this make me a loser? Probably, but it also makes me frickin' awesome. Because as we all know, I don't need no instructions to know how to rock! Ok so that's not a j9 original, I have to thank Carl (ATHF) for that one haha! I'm currently having a rock session. Rockin out...Iggy Pop, Deep Purple, Ozzy, Van Halen, GNR...it's like when VH1 plays that all day marathon of metal stuff. Like the top 100 Most Metal Moments - my favorite I dunno why it's just pure awesomeness. I think had I been pointed in the right direction or at least born like 10 years in advance I definitely could have been a metal head. Like in the summer with the radio on and all the windows down and some song comes on and you turn it up waaaay loud so you're sure everyone on the sidewalk can hear what you're quite clearly and ridiculously rockin out to. Love it. Loooooove it.

Ok that's enough.

Well Thursday was my birthday...good and bad.  I went out to the Saloon the night before and ended up calling my mother at 3am all drunk and upset that I was old.  Poor John - I woke him up for no reason other than to pass the phone to my mom haha! So she consoled me and hopefully didn't realize I was drunk b/c she was half asleep. But the next day was better. My mom sent me gorgeous flowers and a basket of junk food from the flower shop on Allen Street and my dad sent me a little package with a book (Bartending for Dummies) and a pretty hair clip thing - one of the ones that has a half circle thing and a pin that goes through it. It's all Celtic looking and matches a necklace he gave me a while ago. Yay.  I got to go shopping and got taken out to dinner and went out to the Saloon where the band sang me happy birthday! Yay! Got drunk again (damn those Monkeyboys are good) of course so it was a fairly successful birthday.

Mom, John, Paulette, Lise and Lexi came up on Saturday for the Blue and White game and I got more presents yaaaaaaaay! Flip-flops, adorable purse, necklace, subscription to Rolling Stone, an addition to my CowParade collection (I know I'm a dork) and this stuff called Skin Milk which is all milk based skin care stuff like facewash, skin toner and lotion. It smells really good...kind of fresh and clean but also kind of sweet. Like milk, duh. Mike, Jack, Manning and Alex came up to the tailgate too so it was good to have everybody there.

So at half-time during the game (which I payed absolutely no attention to) the THON people got to go on the field and do the line dance. I was in the front and I dunno how or why I got there...just lucky I guess but as a result, I'm famous!!!! Check it out: http://gallery.gopsusports.com/Photo_Gallery_Display.cfm?imageNum=53&startRow=46&gd=0&searchstring=&sp=9&dir=&game=&season=2005 woo!!! And I don't look like a retard!!!! How rare... :-P

I'm going to Arizona for a few days in May with Mom and John to pick out stuff for the new condo. I simply cannot wait. I have this image/ideal in my mind and I'm just dying to have come true. I want to be warm all the time and I want to be all balanced and holistic and all Arizona-esque. I'm going to get up in the morning and practice yoga on the balcony in the morning sun, eat all healthy and organic and be tan and happy. I'm so excited! I just hope I get a good job and meet people and all that jazz...as much as I'm not looking forward to actually graduating I'm really anxious to be home with my friends and be in Doylestown. Still scary how things move on though...

Oh well, bedtime for sleepy girls.

So, to get you all up to speed:

Saturday night my fantastically wonderful friends threw me a surprise party for my birthday which is on Thursday. How fucking cool is that????? I've always wanted a surprise party but it always seemed like something that only happened on TV but yay!! They told me we were going to go to the Phyrst for a little bit and then Pete was going to have some friends over at the apartment for his birthday which was last Monday. And I was all oh ok that'll be chill, just a few people and we'll hang out and it'll be good. Nice night. So before we went out, Mike, Pete and Nate came to my room while I was getting ready. It didn't seem weird at the time but I guess now that I think about it that was kind of shady. Anyway Mikey gave me my present then which was aaaaaaaaabsolutely unfuckingbelievably the perfect gift. Ideal. What is it, you ask? A yellow tee shirt with a green rooster on it, under which is the word "Block" I'll just let that sink in..........COCKBLOCK!!!!!! HA!!! Oh yeah it's just perfect. So even though I had a cute little skirt outfit all picked out for the night Mike made me wear it. Good call.  :-) So anyway we left the Phyrst and walk back to the apartment and the door's locked. So Pete unlocks it, walks in and then I get into the doorway and I hear "SURPRISE!!!!!!" I really didn't get it. I looked up and I was like, "For me?" And some smart ass goes, "No for Mike!" And I, being the gullible idiot that I am, went with it trying not to seem disappointed until I looked around and saw that my friends were there. Ah...it's for me!! Commence the tears. Oooooooooh it was fucking great. I had soooo much fun and my friends are just the best ever. Thank you guys so much for doing something so sweet for me!! I don't deserve it but it's more than I could have ever asked for. I looooooooove everyone who came :-) Thank you!!!

The Whiplash show was on Sunday and it went pretty well. My solo was good even though I think I improved most of it. I swear the pitch was up on that stereo b/c it felt soooooo much faster than when I would rehearse in the White Building. No worries though 'cause it looked good - I think. I wanna see the video.

Yesterday I woke up with a raging headache but I dragged myself to class anyway b/c I'm a good girl. On the way I stopped in the Commons to get some headache medicine 'cause I have none in my room somehow and they were out. How are you out?? All they had was Tylenol Sinus so I just took that. I helped a little but I still felt nauseous and pained by the time I got to class. I was late as usual so I walked in quietly only to notice that no one else from my group was there. Sucks. The class is a lecture for an hour and then the groups work on their projects for the remaining hour so there really wasn't any point in me even being there b/c the lecture is worthless. We have no tests, no homework no nothing. I was slightly pissed. Whatever though; good for me for going to class.

...except today I bailed out of Art after our lunch break and sat on the HUB lawn for 3 hours, skipping Soc. I couldn't help it! It was soooooo beautiful and sunny and breezy and warm I just couldn't go anywhere. So I had some Panda, read the paper, did the crossword and a lot of drawing so I kind of made up for not going to the second half of Art. I drew the people sitting around except they kept moving so that made it hard, I drew my feet and I drew my jeans. Looks pretty good too. Then I came home and sat outside in the quad and drew my building. I'm just a drawin' fool!

Ok I'm starving so I'm peacing out. Sunny love! Oh shit except it's raining all of a sudden...shitty. Ok well previously sunny love!

Well I suppose this is what I get for still living on campus my senior year. Fuckin Penn State...the dorms close on May 7th, but graduation isn't until May 14th. Hello senior week? I'm not about to go home for that week, miss out on everything and then schlep back up here for graduation. But I can't live in my own god damn room b/c Penn State is inconsiderate enough to schedule stupid conferences during the week b/w finals and graduation. And of course the conference people need to stay in Eastview so that means that I get the boot. Ah but wait, there's more. Because the Housing office is sooooooo generous, they're letting graduating seniors stay in Heister Hall in Pollock for free during that week! Yippeeeee! Note heavy sarcasm. I haven't had a roommate for two years, what would make them think I want a randomly assigned one now? I just hate how this university always seems to be out to get the students. I hate that they put so much more stock and effort into alumni, and silly conferences and things instead of taking care of the students who need things here and now. We're paying through the nose to be here and all they ever do is shaft us. I'm tired of it but I guess there's no use in bitching now seeing as how I'm graduating. Sometimes I really love this place, but other times I really hate it.

So I'm not going to the Whiplash formal. Too bad, so sad.  But come on, I mean it's on my birthday, I have no money to buy the tickets and it's too much of a hassle to find a date I'd actually have fun with. I mean yeah I could take Mike but whatever...anyway I'm not going. So now I need plans for my birthday.

I'm mopey and depressed for some reason. Something hit me hard in Soc today and sort of stuck with me for the rest of the day. I've been relatively blue ever since. I know what it was but I think I'd rather not get into it for fear that I'll just get mopey again.

The Whiplash show is this Sunday and I just changed the music for my piece. Normally probably not a good idea but it works so much better now. It's not like I had been considering changing it either...I just was bored with my music all of a sudden and listened to what else was on the rest of the CD...it just kind of happened. And if you're a dancer you'll understand on a more personal level, but quite obviously the more you like something the better you'll do it. So if you feel more connected to a piece, if the way the music fits with the movements makes you feel good it'll look better. My only concern is that since I didn't choreograph to this particular piece of music, it might not flow the way it should but it's working out ok so far. Wish me luck.

You're killing me here Jeff!!!!!!!!!!! This is now the third time that he's moved to Arizona, stayed for 3 months and bailed out. Except this time he's kind of fucking me over too. (btw Jeff is one of John's sons, ie. one of my "step" brothers) Anyway, he and Mike (another brother) and Scott (friend) moved to Arizona in December and lived in the condo out there. Fine, ok have fun. Mike came back a few weeks ago, as planned b/c he has a job and a life here - he was just taking a long vacation. So that left Jeff and Scott out there. We were all under the impression - because of what they said - that those two were out there for good. Jeff had a job at a collections agency or something and Scott got his real estate license and was waiting table in the mean time.  So since I plan on going out there in October, John decided to get a bigger place.  Chances were that Jeff and Scott might not get their own place and I'd have to move in with them, necessitating a bigger condo (I'm not about to sleep on the couch for weeks on end).  SOOOO, John, just yesterday, put in for a new condo that's just been built. Literally 12 hours later, Jeff calls and says he's coming back. Something about he doesn't like it, he can't make enough money, whatever. So he's coming home. What about Scott you ask? Scott is staying. But Scott doesn't have a car. So Scott, who isn't even John's kid, is living in his condo and might soon be living in John's new condo, with me.  Something isn't right here.

So yeah. I mean it doesn't really bother me too much b/c duh what do I care but it pisses me off that Jeff, for the past like 4 years has just been fucking around not doing anything with his life. I feel bad for John b/c he's such a softie that he'll always take care of his boys regardless of what they're up to. So I guess now Jeff will come back home but all I can ask is that he moves in with his mother and not with Mom and John b/c I don't want another brother in the house...Mike is plenty for me.

But yay new condo!!!!! That's exciting. And you know what else is exciting? We found a house to rent for a week in Sea Isle. The house we had been using for the past...oooooh I dunno 20 years was sold to some douchebag who didn't rent out. So he sucks b/c I didn't get to go down the shore last year. But never fear b/c we found another house that's just like it (except a good $1500 more a week) on the other end of the island. I think it's somewhere around 57th maybe...by the Acme if that means anything to anyone. So mark your calendars...the week of July 30th. Come play!

Today was a relatively terrifying day. Not really b/c it was a beautiful day and I got a lot done and had a good day but here's the catch...I bought my cap and gown and graduation announcements. Yikes. My graduation photos came in too so this evening while watching TV I folded the announcements around the photos and stuffed them all into envelopes, all the while with my cap and gown staring at me from across the room. What day are we? March 30th. 22 days till I turn 22 and about a month and a half until I graduate. Who's freaking out? I am. Not so much like "oh my god what am I going to do with my life?" because to be honest I'm not worried about it. I'll find something to do that makes me happy. It's more "oh wow I kind of don't want to leave this place." Saving grace though is that I don't have finals. So that means that from the last day of classes to graduation, I have two weeks with nothing to do. What ever will I do with myself? Get silly, that's what. :-) I dunno I might go home for a bit and take some of my crap home with me...maybe work a bit for some cash so I can blow it all the next week going out left right and center. Yay.

I went to the Maroon 5 concert last night. Ok not really...more like we caught the last 30 minutes of the Maroon 5 concert last night. What can I say? We were drinking and lost track of time? Something like that...but I took some DayQuil caplets right before we left after I'd been drinking. Apparently I didn't learn my lesson the first time in Miami, because I ended up having to pull the trigger at the BJC so as not to puke all over the people in front of me later. Whoops!! No worries, I was golden afterwards. Passing the flask around hiding from the ushers - I felt like I was in high school but it was fun :-P They covered ACDC's Highway to Hell as their last song. It was alright but not great. The whole concert was basically like that but seemed a whole lot more fun just 'cause I was drunk. I think a lot of things fall into that category... Anyway we came back, watched the first half of Kill Bill and craaaaaaaashed. Drunk and assed out by 1am. Way to go j9.

Leave me comments peas!

Ok. No, seriously. How fucking awesome is my Scion? Ok yeah I know I don't actually have it yet and I can't really call it mine b/c I won't be getting it until like September practically (boooo!) but still it's just a matter of time. Minor details...anyway we went and visited it this weekend when I was home for Easter and words just cannot express how excited I am to get it. It is so cute. We were looking at it and the salesman guy comes out and he's all hey can I help you so I asked him how the back seats recline (because they do, y'know) and he showed me and then he's like, but watch this: he reclines the back seat like 45 degrees. Then he takes the head rest off the front seat and reclines it too. It goes all the way down and ends up flush up against the front of the back seat. So you can sit in the back seat, reclined, with your legs stretched out like you're in a fucking lounge chair. How sweet is that??? My sister was all bent outta shape though b/c she doesn't want me to get a new car before she gets a new car. Whatever. She just got something like a 14% raise so nothing's really stopping her except Stephen. They can afford it I just think he's being selfish...or something I don't really know.

Anyway, Rhi and I went out to Top Dog in Jersey (I know, wtf?) on Saturday with Dan and his.....friends. They really are a unique bunch. I'm not a big fan of most of them, y'know like the bigots and the loudmouths and the assholes, but Bobby's ok. Dennis was ok but then he wouldn't shut up. I just wish Jessica and Jackie came out too. I dunno what happened to Jessica, but Jackie ended up in Old City being snobby GA alums (haha kidding!). It would have been way more fun if they were there too. But whatever it's not like it sucked, it just wasn't awesome.

So I'm still sick. Still. This has been going on since like before Spring Break I think. I was sick and then I got better and then of course got sick again in Miami b/c duh it's not like I was taking great care of myself. And then I got better and then got sick again in Buffalo and it just hasn't gone away. Maybe that's b/c I'm not taking anything. No that's not true I am taking stuff just not on a regular basis. I should probably fix that.

My bed is calling my name for a brief nap before I go workout. That seems really counterproductive or maybe just backwards...I don't care I'm tired.

**Disclaimer** I'm in an awful mood. I'm complaining. I'm PMS-ing and I'm highly irritated. If this sort of behavior pisses you off and would only lead you to bitch at me telling me to shut up then please don't read this. We'd all be better off. (Although it is kinda funny...)

Ok I need to be in some sort of altered state of consciousness right about now b/c I'm irritated like never before. I dunno why. It all started this morning when my clothes just wouldn't sit right on my body. And then when I started walking to class I remembered why I don't wear the jeans I wore today anymore - b/c of the massive whole in the crotch that always makes me feel like I've peed my pants when the cold air gets in.  Then I'm halfway to my Art class and I remember I left my sketchbook, with all my bits and pieces for my collage, on my desk in my room. So I spent the next 3 hours watching The Lorax and flipping through Glamour magazines pretending to look for more materials. Next I was off to Soc but I had a peanut butter milkshake craving so I stopped at the Creamery first. They didn't have peanut butter. I looked the girl straight in the eye and said, "Why???" Apparently they rotate their flavors so that they never match up with my cravings. Fuck it, I left.

In Soc, I found out that Penn State has the highest tuition in the Big Ten but still continue to elmiminate programs vital to their students' education to "save money." The enormous text-messaging, Sidekick-clicking football players behind me kept pressing their knees into the back of my seat (y'know how in the Forum the backs of the seats tilt forward for some reason?) so that at one point I seriously almost fell out of my chair and onto the floor in front of the first row. And I was sitting next to a really fat girl.

I started walking home and stopped to pick up my drawing pad from my Art classroom and figured I'd take my portfolio (read: two pieces of poster-board stapled together to make an oversized envelope) home too just for kicks.  So I'm walking, I'm walking, my hands are freezing and hurting from holding this stupid thing which keeps sliding out from underneath my arm causing me to have to adjust it every 5 seconds. I stepped in a puddle along McKean road. Both feet.

Somebody pack me a bowl or make me a drink or make it Sunday already so I can have some motherfucking chocolate. I dunno why I get this way sometimes...I wish I knew how to make it go away although this is really helping. But I mean I didn't really take it out on anybody and I don't plan on it...I mean except for the girl at the Creamery but she probably deserved it...kidding. Hahahaha you shoulda seen the look on her face when I asked "WHY?" though it was pretty funny. She was rather taken aback. Ok yeah I feel a little better... :-P

ACDF was this weekend - my body hates me as a result. For those of you not in the know, ACDF is the American College Dance Festival and it was at SUNY Buffalo this year from Wednesday to Saturday. So anyway, 21 of us dance minors danced our little asses off for 3 days. I took this Contemporary Partnering class taught by a guy from Point Park and it was just sooooooo fun! I'm sore as hell from the ballet classes but it was worth it. It's really things like this that make me realize why I keep dancing. It makes me want to go into the dance world professionally but I dunno that I ever could. I love it so much though. So anyway it was so fun and I'm glad I went. Kinda sucked that we couldn't really go out for St. Patrick's Day but we made up for it last night...ok at least I did. Me and the Silver Thunder had a good time, resulting in a hellish van-ride back today but whatever. I think I ate more Subway in three days than I have in the past 3 months. Oooooooooohhhhhh, you just sat on a sandwich. I miss my bedmate, my roomies and my husband, even if he does point when he dances - that's why ballerinas don't normally dance at parties...b/c we're not that good and rather awkward. Haha!

I am soooooooo sore. I did this petite allegro in Peter Merz's (my husband) ballet class and immediately after I couldn't walk. My calves were on fire. Kate, being the loving Kines major that she is, massaged them out for me but it only resulted in more excrutiating pain. I'm a little better but performing yesterday was not so much fun even though I think it went pretty well. This journal entry it fairly lame b/c I'm not in the mood but I figured I'd do it anyway.

Going home for Easter this weekend which means I get to see Rhian!!!!!! And I get to give her the rock I got her from Miami b/c I'm a good friend :-P I won't get to have my rehearsal this weekend though b/c duh I won't be here so that's worrying me. My piece is only about half done and I have very few rehearsals left before the show. eeeeek! Hopefully I can switch with someone this week to get one in. I did get a lot of ideas at ACDF for more choreography so that's fairly reassuring but still...I just hope I get it done.

Love to Dudely, Conroy, and Mandala!!

Holy shit I just got the most amazing email I've ever gotten ever. Ever. Here it is:

"OK, so John, you and I move you to AZ in October, drive out in Sven, buy you a car out there, get you a job with Joann's brother, John and I take a few days to attend the AASPA conference in San Diego, come back to Fountain Hills to see how you're doing, and then he and I drive home. Enjoy the snow!
Love,
Mom"

FYI: Sven is John's car...it's a Volvo, a Swedish car...get it? Anyway, Joann's brother owns a restaurant out there and knows people so I can get a bartending job or something. Now I know this might not seem like a huge deal to anyone else b/c I've been talking about this for so long and duh this has been my plan all along. Understandable. The bigness here is just the fact that literally out of nowhere, my mother is making these plans. That means that 1. she's on board 2. she approves 3. it's actually going to happen. We all know that I'm all talk and much of what I talk about and plan never really materializes so just having my mother reinforce it is so unbelieveably exciting for me. It means it's real and it's going to happen. If I've convinced her I want to do it enough that I can do it and will do it...Wow - I'm a happy girl :-)
