book

I liked the random thoughts that came into his head thoughout the whole book because some were really interesting and some were just boring. I knew the boring parts would soon be over and the interesting parts- all the women in his life would just be a short paragraph away. When he made rock star references I would say 95% of them I didn't understand and at times I was able to just continue reading without any real problem and other times I felt completely lost and had no clue what point he was trying to make. That was more frustrating as I got further into the book. For the most part I did like the book but towards the very end I felt the rock references were becoming more common and more indept which was were he lost me. I'm not sure if I would recommend this book or not. I go back and forth with my answer. The rock references really through me off at times but the randomness of the other stories kept me interested in the book. I dont think all those women were truely interested in him but it made for some interesting reading at times.

Killing Yourself to Live

Ugh this book. I dont understand the music references which are becomig more common. I liked the begining alot and now that i'm not understanding the references I'm not so interested in the book. I liked the part when he talked about his family and went to have lunch with them. As I was reading the book I was always wondering about his family. The part when he talked about his mom getting worried when someone was late, reminded me alot of my mom. I also enjoyed the part when he was talking about Lenore, I think i'm more interested in his love life then the rock stars. lol I loved when he was talking about Lenore in such detail when she was ignoring his calls and then the email she sent him at the end was so sad. I felt bad for him! I thought it was great that he revealed so much about how she changed his life and how he felt about her even after reading the email, he didn't trash talk her.

When we first started reading this book, I definately would have encouraged you to continue using this book but after reading it, I have changed my mind. He doesn't explain the music references and I dont understand them. I found myself often skipping over the long section when he made references to bands, especially the led zepplin part.

As you know, I got accepted to Madonna last time I published a post and I am now applying for a scholarship. Hopefully I can get it, everyone wants and could use some free money! The only down dall is that I have to write an essay about why I deserve the money and I feel really weird writing about all my accomplishments and the hard work I put in to school. I dont know why I feel like this. I feel like im bragging and being stuck up... not cool. Hopefully that paper will be done by the end of this week!

Over spring break I had tons of homework, papers to write, and had to study for a history mid-term. Ugh so dumb! I suck at remembering dates and people and events so the mid term was not so easy for me, but hopefully when I get the grade I will be pleasantly surprised :) I would have much rather been in Chicago on a mini-vacation with my boyfriend. Maybe at the end of this semester we can travel or at least go to the cottage for a few days. I just need something relaxing and get away from the the routine of everyday life.


Kevin turned 21 last month and we celebrated our one year together too! I use to think one year wasn't that big of deal until it happened to me. lol I had a wonderful year and continue to have fun with my prince charming, Kevin.

Post Secret

The post secret is a great website that allows people to let out their feelings when they have no one to talk to or just can't talk about something. Some of the posts were really sad and you could feel the pain the author wrote and some of them were funny. Like a poem, the posts were short but had powerful meanings behind them. The one that caught my eye was my boyfriend gave me up for lent. No my boyfriend didnt' give me up for lent but I think my best friend needs to give up her boyfriend for lent. The past few months she has been going through a rough relationship with him and no matter how much I talk to her and say you need to leave him or atleast make your relationship more healthy she doesn't listen. Its frustrating as her friend to watch her happy one day and the next day she spends crying over him. I understand that relationships arent always going to be happy but more often she is upset than happy. Although when I ask her, she says she is happy. It doens't appear that way to me and I think if she gave her boyfriend up for lent it would give her time away from him to really think and decide if this relationship is right for her. There is so much I still want to talk to her about and their relationship but I dont want to loose her as a friend either.

I chose to do a concrete poem, a heart.



Love is a uniquely felt feeling
that is described differently by all. Last
year, I found my true love. My love brings me
comfort that lasts all through the night, he grants me
an eternal smile and butterflies in my tummy. Our
love continues to grow each and everyday in different ways. We made a bond that no
one else measures up to. Three powerful
little words, I Love You, just never
seem enough to express
my love for
you.

My life last week

This week I finally got my acceptance letter to Madonna University! I'm so happy, I can't wait to start the diatetics program there and begin my career. I'm ready to be done with taking all my general classes. Also I saw the movie Dear John. I loved it so much except the ending jsut ended. I guess the director just wanted to leave the end to your interpetation. I took it as John and Savanna were still together and meeting up together. She smiled at him through the window as she waited for him. I cried at the movie but after I was left with a warm feeling in my heart. They had true love and was an awesome movie. Also I found out the my other cousin, Katie is having a baby that is due next winter. My cousin Jennifer baby is due at the end of March. My youngest cousin in going to be a freshman in high school next year so it should be intersting having little ones again running around the house at the holidays. Spring break is coming up in a few weeks and I can't wait to have some extra free time and of course I need to catch up in my classes. Yikes not the greatest idea.
