March 27

This weekend was pretty boring. I slept. I did all of my homework this morning, but I got it all done. The medication makes me tired and dizzy, so I can't really do any exercise. But my medication will run out in a week or so, so not much more time.

Eyes and Words

Why can't I tell you
How I feel
You see it in my eyes
But you're not sure
Since what is in my eyes
Conflict with words I say

My words are shy
But my eyes
Tell the truth
The blunt truth
Maybe it is fear
That guard my words

I think it is too late
I let you give up
I thought it was best
But now
I don't know
I question

March 24

Well, I did it. What I have been thinking about doing. It was fun and nothing bad happened. Then Jeff and I went to eat chinese. It was a really good night.

Well, yesterday I had to go to the hospital, for my foot. They diagnosed me with shingles. Something that you can only get if you have already had the chickenpox. But it usually affects elderly people and not the feet.
This is a poem I wrote a long time ago about Jeff. I love him so much. I wrote it at a little bit of a sad time.

Thoughts

As the days pass
And people come and go,
You'll be in my thoughts
Like footprints in the snow.

But these footprints
Never fade,
Never blow away
Never unmade.

March 23

Yesterday I went to the health center because of my foot. I have little white blisters on the bottom of my foot. They are sore and ichy. No one I talked to knew what it was, so I went to the health center. They didn't know what it was either. It was funny though, because they gave me a paper on hyperhidrosis, and a prescription even though they didn't know what it was. They were just like I don't think you have this, but this is what we are going to say you have. Hyperhidrosis is when someone sweats excessively for no apparant reason. I don't do that. When I sweat on my feet it is because I excercise. It has been fine, but I think it is getting worse. Because now it is starting to hurt when I walk. Oh, well, I am sure it will get better.

This morning I got to get up at 5:30 to go swimming at 6:00. In BDU's, so it was water survival. It wasn't as bad as I thought.

I have been thinking all week about doing a certain something. But I don't know if I should or not. I have been trying to find hints or clues to see if I should or not, and I have been getting both, but I had a dream last night that I did and it wasn't a good idea. Now I am not sure if I should. And I don't know what I am going to do if the chance comes up.

Emily!!!! My ex-roomie came to visit for a week during her spring break. We went to get smoothies together and then ate dinner in Cenntenial, since we never did that when she was here last year. It was fun.

March 19

Today everyone else got back from break. I baked Jill a cake for her birthday. Adrien stopped by for like an hour. It was fun. I missed her. I did feel bad for Jeff. Something is wrong with his mouth. He thinks it might be his wisdom teeth. I hope he feels better.

March 17

Today was interesting. Jeff and I double dated with Olga and Remington. It was fun, but then we all went to see The Hills Have Eyes. It was a horrible movie. Not all that scary, but gross. So, none of us actually finished the movie. But we did go back to Remingtons and watch a good movie.

March 16

I am back from spring break a little early, but my friends wanted to do some things!! So over my break there was a little excitment. My car broke down on the day my sister and I wanted to drive to springfield to go shopping. Well, it actually broke down in springfield, at the place we stopped at first. So, I had to call grandparents and they came all the way to help us. So we wasted the day finding someone to fix the car, and only had an hour to shop. Oh, well. That was Monday. Then on wednesday, yesterday I went over to Tracy's and we watched Serenity. She loved it! Then we went horseback riding. Mine almost layed down in the water it was splashing all around. Kinda cute. And I got a little burned by the sun, which is kinda exciting. It means it is getting warmer!!!

March 8

This morning I had the PT test. It was awesome. Last time I got a score of 247 which is alright, I guess, but I only got 22 push-ups, 81 sit-ups, and I did the 2 mile in 17:52. This time I reached my goal of 270. I actually got 278 with 35 push-ups, 79 sit-ups(they actually made me stop since there was no reason to do more), and a 2 mile of 16:25. I was so happy I have been happy all day. (even though I think I failed my logic quiz, and I have two math tests tomarrow with two programs that I am still not finished with due)

March 6

Not a whole lot happened today. I worked out a bit did homework, went to swords(talking meeting). I went to class, it was fun. I worked out with Jeff last night. I wanted to see how many pushups I could do. Then we worked on kicking. It was a hard work out.

March 5

Today has been a little boring and relaxing, which is nice. I got another bloody nose this morning when Jeff was trying to put a hold on me to show me some grappling technique and accidently hit my nose with his elbow. So it started bleeding. But it didn't last quite as long. Then when Jeff went to work I watched Paycheck with Jill. I love that movie.

March 4

Last night was the start of FTX. It was fun, but I didn't know enough coming in to be confident. But last night we had to stay the night on the floor of the armory. Not too much fun, but it could have been worse. The only thing was, was I had a bloody nose for like 10 minutes before the whole thing started and our squad leader announced it to the whole platoon.
This morning we got up and went to Sugar Creek, learned land navigation and then did a shooting test. I qualified getting a score of 28 out of 40 which is pretty good for me only learning how to shoot a few months ago. Then we did land navigation for 5 hours. I felt like Cale did all the work and I only found two points out of the seven we found by myslef. But then we did three hours of night land navigation, and I did it with Jeff. He made me do everything so I could learn. So he basically followed me the whole time and made me make all the decisions. We only found two points. But it was a lot more fun. The weather was chilly and it was freexing rain and snowing. But pretty fun.

February 28

Conversation today. Things will work themselves out. I am sure of it. But what was said, is that things will get worse before getting better.

Well, they did, but they are better now. I asked movius a bunch of questions that led to I am in a happy relationship so don't try to ruin it. Well, it worked, but at a cost of possibly loosing a friend. He tries to avoid me now, which is alright I guess, but that was probably the meanest thing I have ever done to anyone. Since I am a nice person, I feel really bad. People say I shouldn't, and they are probably right, but it doesn't help and I still feel bad.

I am sick now. I don't know if I will feel well enough to go to PT tomarrow.

February 27

Things are a little strange, with certain person who kinda likes me. Jeff wants to kill him, because he saw something the guy wrote about me. I hope everything turns out alright. But it seems everyone wants to take care of things for me, and I don't really like that. I like to be able to handle things for myself.

Wow. I had a bad night at swords!! Cale brought his great sword that is taller than I am and I misjudged his swing and he hit me in the side with a baseball swing. Knocked the breath right out of me. It was kinda horrible, but I had someone steady to hold onto so I didn't fall or panic. But tutoring wasn't fun to walk to. Oh, well, I will be fine in the morning.

February 26

Didn't do much today. I slept in, did homework then went to eat dinner with Jeff, Olga, and Remington. Then did more homework, watched Van Helsing and went to bed.

:( Howard died.

February 25

Today Tracy and I did out Military Science homework. Then a lot of people went to walmart, it was fun. Jill and I got more fish. This time we got some fruit tetras and a goldfish. The goldfish is named Howard and the tetras are Hermie and Hurr.

I baked the best cookies ever. they were fantastic and my boyfriend really liked to eat them. then he came downstaitrs and looked into my eyes and completely fell for me all over again. (haha not really...Jeff wrote that)

The party went well, but I left early. There was too many people I didn't know. But Adrien, Tracy, and I made smoothies for everyone. They were good. Jeff had a bad night. He was supposed to go to a play for a class he is in, but the teacher e-mailed him the wrong time so he wasn't able to get into the play. Now he may get points off his grade.

February 24
My fish died this morning. I am a little sad, because I don't know why it died. But my roommate and I will get more fish this weekend. Maybe today will get better. I still have sword practice. And Logic. Logic is always fun. I think it is my favorite class. And my first class of the morning only lasted 15 minutes. But I have a class after so I just went to the computer lab.

The rest of my day was good. I didn't do much. Swords was fun. We did my favorite game. Free for all and when the person who gets you out, gets out, then you can come back in.

February 23
Today has been a good day. I got to visit Adrien and my old but faithful friends. We are planning something to get us all together again. I hope it works out.

Swords was fun tonight. There was a lot of fighting. And I stayed in the ring and fought everyone and beat everyone once then Matt came in with the staff and beat me. I even got my sword knocked out of my hand which is really strange and almost never happens. But I had a good night. Ryan ended up getting close enough to grab my sword handle, and did it. I have to work on that. That was a strange situation.

My fish looks sick. I don't want it to die. Although I had to change its water today, for the first time. It looks really stressed out.


A moment
Everything stops
We pause
Both speechless
Being caught by surprise
Confusion
Pass between us
Just for a moment
Everything is silent
We are close
But not touching
Neither of us knows
What to do next
Just for a moment
Anything could happen
Then I step back
The moment is lost
Everything is normal again
But in truth
Nothing will be normal again

February 22

PT was pretty difficult this morning. We had to run up a nice size hill after a 30ish minute workout. May not sound hard, but I guess I am just not in the shape I need to be in.

Later:
Today has been pretty awesome. I talked to one of my professors today about my future career plans. He happened to go on the path that I want to go on, and was being really supportave, and willing to write me letters of recommendation. It makes me so happy!!!

I talked to Emily today!! My old roomie. She is planning to come visit over her spring break which is a week after ours. I am so excited!! We already have plans to eat in the other dorm cafeterias, because we didn't eat in them when she was here and that was like our semester goals that were never fulfulled.

February 21

I have broken my exercise plan already. I was supposed to go to the rec at 9 this morning, and it is 11 and I haven't gone. But I am still going to go today, at 3:30.(*crossing fingers*)

Yup. I went to the rec around 3:20 supposed to be with Jeff, but he didn't show unitl 3:45, which was alright, because we lift so I was warmed up and ready to go.

Swords was fun. More because Zac and I were trying some bendy things. Well, I was trying and he was doing. I had an average swords night. Then I studied Calculus with Bethel. I don't think I helped him much, but I did help my roomie Jill with CS stuff. and I actually did help.

February 20

I have started a new exercise plan. I plan to excercise everyday. I don't think it should be too hard, since I already exercise three times a week. But the only thing is at the rec I don't really wannna use the machines, and even if i do, i still can't just bring something to study, because I am a math/cs, I do problems and use computers. That makes it more difficult come time that I really need to study. But, oh, well. I did go to the rec today and worked on sit ups, and push ups. My goal is to get 30 pushups on my next PT test, which is March 6(only two weeks!!).

I went to swords. It was fun, especially since I was complimented in my reset stance when people press an attack on me!:) Then I had tea with colin and sam. I love spending time with friends. Then I had tutoring, so I learned something, making the time spent with my friends more fun, since I knew that I was still going to learn stuff that night.

Things are looking up. I guess I underestimate the intelligence of others as well. Things are easier when talking to someone who is smart enough to understand what to do in certain situations. No uncomfortableness. It makes things easier for me and for my friends who are more than happy to talk to him and tell him to leave me alone, well not be so close. But there is no need.:)

February 19

Jill lokced herself out of our room this morning. So, she called me when I was at Jeff's and asked if I could come back and unlock the door. It was kinda funny, but I know I will end up doing that some day too. We lock our door because we don't like people coming in without knocking or when we aren't here. So, on the weekend when April is gone, since she doesn't like the door locked because she will forget her keys, we lock our door when we leave. But it has been a fun day so far. I spent most of it with Jeff.
