remember that time that a [british] hobbit took a photo of eric and i in front of the london tower bridge? WELL, that particular picture just happened to make its way into the sunday edition of the wheeling intelligencer. no autographs, please. ps: more importantly, there were also some coupons for coldstone creamery in that day's paper.
i got some new shoes the other evening. i love new shoes. they are white tennis shoes, and they have pink and brown trim. they also have tiny pumas on the toes. a puma is just a mountain lion, which is a panther, etc. apparently, this particular animal has several proper names. puma is the incan name, and it's the name that scientists use. i looked it all up. and i love my new shoes.
things that eric and i have done this week: played scrabble, gone to dairy queen, rented dvd's, talked about everything, drank vodka & cranberry juice, gone shoe shopping, left keys at blockbuster, bought a cactus, tried to go to kennywood, been to spanish church, eaten pizza, had loads and loads of fun. i like this week.
i am going home for 2 days on sunday. no work for me on monday OR tuesday. yay for fireworks! my brothers will be away at some camp though...hate to say it, but i kinda wish they were going to be there. nevertheless, the fuzz will be there! i bought him a brand new catnip mouse present last night.
when i first came to bethany, i generally liked it. but, i HATED the entire "bethany bubble" phenomenon. i guess it's something that you don't really notice/understand unless you're here--and maybe most people still don't see it because they've always gone here. i don't know. anyway, i'm over that now. i don't resent it, and i don't feel like these kids really need to get into the "real world" for a little while. i guess everyone gets there in his own time, and bethany is a good place to learn. i fit into a private school better (maybe simply because that's where i started school in the very beginning.). bethany still has its flaws (but what school doesn't?), and i like it here now.
i got my nails done last week at a nail place in robinson. fyi: don't go to the nail place in robinson with the bamboo by the front door. they made 8 of my fingers bleed. perhaps i have sensitive fingers or something...but i've never had ANY fingers bleed from that before. also, they look...well, not BAD, but i've definately had better. that's your warning.
i need to get my hair cut. maybe just a trim. maybe super short for the summer. maybe SHAVED for the summer. i'll just wait and see how crazy i feel. i hope i can get it done on monday; i like my very own hair stylist. i like my mom's too. but, she's never cut my hair, only fixed it for special occasions. maybe i'll try and get it cut just like my mom's. maybe.
i am cold, and work is boooooring. rachel and kara went off on some youth group trip to somewhere, which left me at work alone. if you think playing computer games with friends for 8 hours is boring, try doing it alone! golly. yesterday i got to read 3,489,864 newspapers and cut out all articles about bethany. there were some--mostly boring. i read lots of random articles though, and have learned many new things. suddenly, work is educational this week.

hostess.

an advertisement banner that said, "Parrot Training! FREE Training Video Guaranteed to Convince Your Parrot to Cheerfully Step Up, Stop Screaming for Attention, & Never Poop on You Again!" just scrolled across the top of my screen.
the very nice lady who works in the office down the hall brought us some cookies to work today. they are all decorated in red, white, & blue, and they sort of taste like sand. it was a nice gesture though.
my ear is feeling better, i'm sure you will all be relieved to hear. not perfectly well, but definately better. if it didn't get better by today, i would have had to go to the emergency room and have a doctor insert a tube through my ear drum. ouch.
we FINALLY received our paychecks from the first three weeks of work yesterday. yay for finally having some money. we're going shopping tomorrow, and i am excited. rachel is going to buy some turtles. i am going to get my nails done. and buy a shirt or something fun like that.
i miss eric. only 3 more days until he's home!!

bully.

my life is in shambles. not really, but almost. i'm hurting. randomly, i have an inner ear infection. it HURTS. really, i don't remember the last time i was in this much pain. it's just half of my head throbbing and feeling like it's going to explode. i used to get swimmer's ear when i was little, but i don't think i've ever had a real ear infection. and, i don't recommend it. PAIN. i'm continuously shaking a little because it hurts so badly. and that's with the drugs. OUCH. help me...?
the best part of this horrid thing is that eric just left to go be a counselor at his church camp for the week. so i'm in this alone. i've got amoxicillin, aleve, tylenol, and a ton of pain.
oh, and the cherry on top: i had to work all day today. on a SATURDAY. at SEVEN AM. i don't work saturdays, and i definately don't work seven am's. anyway, today was preview day for incoming freshmen. it was loads of fun to be out the insane heat while smiling away and chatting about bethany...with exactly one half of my entire head throbbing in pain. lovely. send care packages. or something.

fun thang.

spring.

rain, rain, go away! the end. luckily, it says 95,000 degrees while it rains. but, this humidity really could stand to go away for just a little while.
eric & i are having a date this evening. i'm pretty excited. don't know what we're doing yet, but, nevertheless, i'm excited.
bored, bored, bored. work = dull. i actually kept myself busy yesterday for the entire time that we were here...which means that i did a lot and am extra bored hoy. life.
internet radio is fun. there are lot of good stations. and no static. i detest any amount of static. try live365. hot hits atlanta wava.
i might get to go to cancun for way cheap at the end of this summer. YAY. i even bought a new super cute bathing suit the other day, so i'm all ready. a mexico beach is a good thing to me.
eric is feeding dogs this week. at 5 am. i hate dogs, especially dogs who have to eat at 5 am daily.
