Happy Birthday Victoria!!!
Wow, long time no see! I'm such a slacker. Wow, so much has happened since the last time I posted. New York! what can I say except it was amazing. I want to go back. It was a blast. We saw two broadway shows, they were so great, although I've never heard of a bad broadway show. hehe. Chinatown was great!!! We were introduced to the Chinese blackmarket, such an experience. The weather, well it was all over the place, rain, snow, sunshine, cold, warm, etc. More on this later...
Last night was so much fun. Old school skate night!!! We went out to dinner for Victoria's birthday. It was so good. Then we went skating. OMG, that was a blast. It brought back so many memories (Galaxy Skateway in Melbourne). All the 5th and 6th graders running around thinking they're god's gift. It was a blast. My friends are so awesome! After skating, we went back and watched movies, so much fun too. I think every night should be like last night!!! (at least every friday night should be like that!) Its breakfast time with Katie. More later, I promise!

Spring break is finally here and in less than 12 hours I will be on my way to NYC! I can't wait! I'm done packing. This is going to be the greatest trip ever. All except the part of waking up at 3:15am tomorrow! ack, that's so early, but its okay, I will manage. Our plane leaves at 7am and we should arrive at JFK airport at 9am (or sometime around there). I don't know what else to say...except I wish we were staying longer. Later Gator! I'll let you know how it goes. Later Gators!

I am in such a good mood today. I'm not sure why. I think it has a lot to do with the weather, and the fact that its the weekend. Also the fact that spring is here, and spring break is in less than a week. It was weird, when I woke up this morning, I knew it was going to be a good day. I had a really really good dream right before I woke up. Then I went to church. It was one of those days that I really enjoyed church. I'm not sure why exactly, it was just fun being there. There was the cutest baby next to me, and she kept staring at me. She had beautiful blue eyes, there's something about blue eyes that I love, ;). I feel so lucky to be alive today, as cheesy as that sounds. Its just one of those days that reminds me how wonderful life is and how lucky I am. Now, back to reality. I have lots to do, and the time is going by so quickly. So I think I should go now, and get some work done, so maybe I can go to sleep early tonight, and wake up and take my Chemistry quiz. Ta Ta. Love you lots.

So...it's Sunday again. Why do Sundays go by so quickly? and Saturdays too? I really wish the weekends were longer. It's so pretty outside. I was looking at the weather, I do that a lot, and this week is gonna be so nice. High 70's and low 80's all week. I'm so excited. I have a quiz, midterm, and exam, then I'm done until after spring break. How exciting! I'm hoping today will be productive. I have a lot to study, and if I set my mind to it, I should be able to get a lot done.
Yesterday marked 5 months together. I can hardly believe it. I was thinking back on the past 5 months, they have gone by so quickly. Who would have thought it would last this long? I'm certainly glad its going so well!!! I can honestly say its been the greatest time of my life, and I'm looking forward to what the future brings. yay!
This semester is going by so fast. We're already half way done. Just two more months, and I will have completed my first year of college. Wow. Its a good thing I want to go to graduate school. There's no way I would be ready for life on my own in three years. Thats so scary to think of. I guess I should just focus on the summer and fall terms. I still have no clue what I should take. I'm thinking easy stuff, but I'm not sure that's an option. We'll see, I still have a month to decide.
Take care, and good luck with the week to come. New York in one week!!!

Lent

So as most of you know, Lent started yesterday, and if you didn't know, well you do now! It lasts 40 days + Sundays, for a total of 47 days. For the past 5 or 6 years I've been giving up biting my nail, such a bad habit. Most years it doesn't work, but this year it is! I'm determined. I also gave up unhealthy eating, its closer to eating in moderation, but I'm trying to cut out greasy stuff like Wendy's, Pizza, Burger King, etc. Pretty much all that's left is Subway, which is okay. I have coupons for buy one 6-inch, get a 6-inch free. I also decided to give up AIM completely, but it's turning out to be a very big inconvenience for everyone, not just me. Now instead of making plans online to eat or do stuff, I have to call or be called. That's really not a big deal for me, but with AIM you can look to see what everyone is doing and if they're busy, not there, or studying. I'm thinking about revising that Lenten offering, and just staying off AIM when I should be studying. That was the main reason why I decided to give it up in the first place. My only problem is I feel like I'm giving up, and letting myself down. It's almost like I'm not up for the challenge. So I'm still thinking. I haven't been online since Wednesday, 12am; just under 48 hours (ohhh not a long time). Hehe. Okay, well I must get back to studying. Biology Exam tomorrow at 8:30am. I need all the preparation I can get. Laters. Peace.

| » The weekend |
|---|
Its finally the weekend! well i shouldn't say finally, this week went by really fast. I had a lot going on at the beginning of the week, it was really stressful, but now its better. (no more procrastination for Mary). I've never understood why the weekends go by so quickly, somehow two whole days just disappear. Its okay I guess, I can't change it, so it'll have to be okay. hehe.
Next week marks the middle of the semester, and with it comes a lot of midterms. Those should turn out to be interesting, especially since I should probably start studying for them this coming week. (like that will really happen)
Instead of wasting any more of your time, I will go for now (at least until I come up with more dumb comments to post) Later.

| » 2 weeks until spring break |
|---|
I can't wait until spring break. Its gonna be a blast. We're going to New York!!! omg, i cant believe it. I have never been this excited about spring break in my life. Spending 4 days in New York will be so much fun. Its gonna be so cold up there. I was looking at the average temperature for the first week in March. The average high is 47, and average low is 32. burrr thats cold! I guess I wont have to worry too much about packing, I just have to remember to dress warm. If you want postcards, you'd better send me your address. Although the last time I sent postcards, only half of them made it to the right place, and I got back before they did. Oh well, its okay. :)

| » Hmmmm |
|---|
I'm very bored and I really shouldn't be. I have plenty of work to do, chem lab, chem homework, bio lab report with 4 huge graphs (which reminds me, I need graph paper!), study for theatre appreciation (such a joke of a class) and I'm sure theres more I'm just not remembering. But yeah, I have spent the last three and a half hours doing just about nothing. Well I guess I was able to get some stuff done. I reinstalled AIM after reinstalling it this morning (thats another story) and I went to Burger King for dinner (have I mentioned how much I hate fast food, or just greesy food). Now I'm back in front of the computer. I do that a lot. I sit in front of my computer and do absolutely nothing for hours and hours. Then I realize I'm tired and I haven't started my homework yet, so I sit at my computer and stare and the clock until it gets really late, then I start my homework, but usually don't finish it. Its a sad story that just keeps repeating itself.
So...on to the AIM story. Early this morning while studying for a bio lab quiz I decided to update my AIM and I installed the newest version. When I got back to my room I tried to change the sound options to make it sound when someone first IMs me. I soon realized that my choice wasn't an option; I could either have all sounds on or all sounds off. How terrible is that? Since when does technology reverse itself? It didn't make much sense to me. But then, lucky for me, Mushii came along and saved the day! After searching the internet, he found the older version. And now I'm happy again. :)
Time to go be bored again...Later

| » Valentine's Day |
|---|
So...Valentine's Day is less than a week away, and for the past week or two I have been getting THE QUESTION, "What are you doing for Valentine's Day?" As most of you know, this is my first REAL Valentine's Day. I didn't realize how much planning was required, not that I've done any planning yet. I'm not even sure what is expected or not expected from me. As my sister put it, "The guys are suppose to do all the work!" I like that idea, but then how fair is that. Shouldn't Valentine's Day be fun for both people? If one person is doing all the work and making all the plans, that doesn't sound very fun. But that still doesnt solve my problem completely, what do I do? I have a few ideas, but I can't really share them because of a certain reader, if you know what I mean. (I think I'd better quit now, this is becoming worse and worse as it goes on.) TTFN (Ta Ta For Now)

| » Slacker |
|---|
Yes, I admit, I'm a really big slacker. I can't remember the last time I updated this silly journal, all I know is that its been a while. So once again, its sunday night and I'm not sure where the weekend went. Why does it go by so quickly and why do I wait until sunday night to do my homework? Sundays are better spent watching TV, being lazy, taking naps with the boyfriend or all of the above. Instead I waited until 9:30 to watch my economics lectures and I managed to complete 2 out of the 3 from last week. tisk tisk. I guess the moral to this very boring story is to get my homework done friday afternoon or saturday morning. I think I'll try that next weekend, but I'm not making any promises. I'm still not sure why I procrastinate so much, but I think its because it feels so good. I perform better under pressure too. yeah! I think thats it. Well...I must go, and stop procrastinating, I have things to do for Bio Lab (its not due until tuesday) yay for not procrastinating as much as usual. Peace and God Bless America

| » Chemistry Exam (take two) |
|---|
So that sucks. I just finished an entry, and went to post it, and I lost my internet connection. It wasn't that long, but it still took up precious studying time. hehe. So now i'll try to rewrite what I previously wrote, but for those of you who know me, I have the worst memory (short and long term) There's so much to do today, but I'm really not feeling motivated. I would much rather curl up in bed and watch movies. The weather doesn't help, its raining outside. But I have this thing called a Chem exam tomorrow night, and a Bio Lab quiz tomorrow morning that might as well be a test. I'm not really prepared for either, but I'm not too stressed at the moment. I really think the weekends should be longer, at least 3 days, maybe more. But I suppose if they were longer I'd still procrastinate. This weekend seemed to go by very quickly, and I'm not really sure why. Friday Katie and I signed a lease on our apartment. We move in May 6th and I'm expecting either housewarming gifts from everyone. hehe j/k. I'm very excited, only 3 more months of dorms. I really can't wait. I'm sure I'm forgetting something, but I'm not sure what it is. Haha, I told you I had a bad memory. I'll catch you later. OUT.

There's so much going on this week. Today I had my first exam (as mentioned earlier) and a quiz in chemistry which was harder than the exam in theater. Tomorrow I have a quiz in biology lab, fun stuff, along with a bio introduction due (but thats done. yay) Then wednesday...yay, I can't wait until wednesday! (I could do without the Chemistry lab, or the Chem homework due) Wednesday is 4 months for Mike and me!!! Yay! And...Its Tamera's birthday! *::Happy Birthday Tamera!::* Thursday will be mostly studying for a Biology exam Friday morning (8:30am). But Friday afternoon...Katie and I are signing a lease. I can't wait. We're getting an apartment. It's gonna be great!!! and...Friday I get to see my sister (who is skipping school for the second time in two weeks to come up to G-ville, such a slacker), dad and grandmother. so that brings me to the weekend, only for next week to be just as bad. yay for my chemistry exam!!!
Peace. ~Mary :)

| » Hungry |

My hunger is getting to me. I'm very hungry but I dont know what I'm hungry for. I dont have very much food in my dorm but there are plenty of places to eat. I just need to figure out what I should stuff in my belly. I've been having this problem most of this week, not being able to decide what to eat. I think thats due to the fact that I canceled my meal plan. No, its not what you think, I couldnt force myself to eat there anymore. It such gross food, if you'd even call it food. It looked like food, but it didnt have any taste. Its actually very sad. I paid so much for a meal plan, let me see, close to $72 a week. Its crazy if you ask me. I dont have means to cook, well theres a kitchen in the lounge, but I dont own any pots or pans etc. I can't wait to get an apartment next year! It will be so great. I'll be able to cook, well I'll have to learn how to cook, but after I learn, I'll have a place to cook. Not to mention a bathroom thats not down the hall. And I'll be able to take a shower w/o wearing flip flops. Yay!!! But thats an entirely different story! I'll have to finish later.
Peace.

| » THE interview |
|---|
It was a pretty stressful day!! Dental school interview. i know what you're thinking, it's way to soon to be applying. it's an early admissions program (3 years undergrad + 4 years of dental school) I don't think it went that well, or I should say it could have been better. I dont think they liked my 3.47 gpa...but thats not all I am. Oh well, we'll see what happens. I'll find out in March, but thats so far away. So much going on between now and then...like a million exams. Speaking of exams I have a massive amount coming up. 2 next week, plus a quiz next week. I looked at my calendar yesterday, I'm pretty sure I have at least one exam ever week from now until the end of April (thats when finals are). I guess that will keep me busy, at least I wont be the bum I am now. Good-bye for now....

I have a car again! It's kinda funny how much you miss something when you don’t have it. I suppose everything in life is like that. But everything is good now. I have my car back. I guess I should explain. Over Christmas break my car decided it didn’t like me and well...I was in an accident. So, for the last 4 weeks I’ve been without my car. It’s a sad story. I still don’t think the insurance companies have decided who was at fault. I don’t think it was my fault, but that’s not what the other guy said.
