Moving on
05.09.05 (6:15 pm)   [edit]

 I have decided to move on and make a new blog. I know have a xanga. I hope you all still come and visit my site and continue to check up on me to see how I am doing and what i am up to. 


PS: I have currently come up with a problem that has involved certain people reading these entries that shouldn't be so for privacy sake my friends will be informed by email on how to find my new diary.

 
Mother's Day 05
05.08.05 (5:58 pm)   [edit]

 Today I was okay, so the most part. I wentr to the hospital to give Kenya a gift. I got her an angel of courage and angel of faith. (I think I already noted that the day before.) She was in seeing Kile so I had to pop my head in real quick to get her and met her in the hallway. She was really happy to see me. They had a little scare again last night with Kile. The pressure wnt way up and came back down but went right back up again in seconds so they had to give him a some medicine to paralize him so he won't move at all. The swelling moved from one side of the brain to the other and Kile's other doctor (not Morris) said it will tend to go back and forth until it is totally done swelling. I hope it stops soon.


 Cristina and I went to Charleviox after that to meet my mom at my Grandma's. My Aunt Mary and Uncle Mark were there with Rachel and Nick so we went to visit. They were down eatting lunch when we got there so Cristina and I went for a walk and looked in shops. It was so nice out today. And it still is. Well anyway, we went into a store that had all "Up North" gear and Cristina said there was no way she would get anything that said she had been up north. She did end up getting a few things and I got an Up North sweatshirt. Okay, WHY:!: I live here. What the hell. I mean ya, it looks good but still. I was in another store after that and I said, "God, I feel like a college student on vacation. I live here why did I get a sweatshirt." Cristina is like, "You are a college student on break. HAHAHA." Oh boy.


 My mom, dad, Cristina, and I all went to Hu Nan's for dinner. Then came back home and watched National Treasure. I luckily taped Family Guy and will watch it later. Cristina said to just watch the reruns. What, What, Reruns, how dare she even think I will have to wait for reruns. Family Guy is the best. Ha, reruns, that make me sick.


 My dad again got on my back about a job and I told him to shove it. I had to tell my mom again and she said she told him to keep his mouth shut and so I guess she will do it again. She is going to be gone for a week though. Nursing clinics in MN. Oh, what will I do. My dad and sister can't ever get a along and I am here alone to rot in torment. Oh the pain. I can't wait till I have something to get me away from this.


 Hopefully, Mike is suppose to call me ans we will hang out tomorrow night. That way I can get out of this house away from the insane people that wish to torment me. This summer better start being worth it otherwise it will be a long summer.


 (Keep on praying. Kile can pull through this. He has to.)

 
Probe out, probe in
05.07.05 (4:30 pm)   [edit]

 Yesterday Dr. Morris had to take out the old probe in Kile's head and put a new one in. The old one was getting infected which is normal on the 5th day. Luckily they got it out before the infection got into his brain. Dr. Morris was having a hrad time getting the probe to give him the numbers he wanted. He wanted to try and switch the probe to the other side of the brain but it wasn't working so he had to put it in the same spot the old one had been in. That was the only spot he was getting the readings he wanted from. The swelling did go up and was in the high twenties by the time he got the probe in. But it was important to get the number because they can't treat anything without numbers.


 Last night there was a little scare but the number have when going down gradually today. So we still wait. After the 5th day of this new probe in they are hoping they can treat him without the probe and move him to a different room not in ICU. But for now we wait.


 When I went to visit today I found out Kenya had a bunch of people go over to Kile's house and get his stuff out. Melissa doesn't know yet because, of course, she hasn't been home. I hope I am there to see the look on her face when she finds out. Kenya had the right to because she has legal rights to (on papers from the court).


 Other than that, last night Cristina, Steph, and I watched a movie and are planning on watching another tonight. Petoskey is boring believe me. Nothing to do at all.


 Tomorrow is Mother's Day and my dad hasn't gotten anything from him or from us to give to my mom. Fortunately I had already bought a GVSU MOM sweatshirt for her and got a card today from my sister and I. I don't know what he is going to do though. I am going to stop at the hospital tomorow real quick to drop off a gift for Kenya. I got her a Faith angel and a courage angel charm. I know that will cheer her up a little. It would be great if Kile surprised us all tomorrow and woke up. Tomorrow will be the last day Kenya spends the whole day there. She is going to go home and sleep at home starting tomorrow night. Getting back in the routine of taking the kids to school and picking them up. In between that she will go to the hospital. THe nurses have also given her a beeper so that if something does happen and she isn't there they can page her. So that helps out a lot.


 Again, I will ask for your prayers. And thank you all again.

 
"Mom I heard you the first time."
05.05.05 (2:40 pm)   [edit]

 So I made the Dean's list at GVSU. I got my grades today and saw that. It made me happy even though it wasn't a big deal.


 When I got to the hospital today I asked how Kile was doing. Kenya said she was in his room this morning talking to him and asking him to move his feet. After the third time of asking he finally did. She said that we would probably be acting like he would if he were awake saying, "Mom I heard you the first time just settle down." We all kinda laughed. He is not in a medicated coma anymore but in a trama induced coma. So he needs to wake up on his own. The only problems right now is getting him to breathe on his own. If he can start breathing on his own all that there is to wait on is him waking up. He also had a fever today but my mom said that is normal for swelling in the brain.


 Kenya's close friend and singer Sal Solo was here. I haven't seen him since I was 9. He really helped out today and I know Kenya really appreciates him flying here to see him. He is oringally from England but just recently moved to Chicago.


 The stress Keyna needed to let out today finally happened. I guess Melissa (Kile's girlfriend) isn't actually what she seems to be. And I foudn that out today. I won't go into details but Kenya let out all her stress she had kept in today. I think she needed that. We sat in the hospital chapel for a long time (Sal, Kenya, Kenya's best friend, Kole, Alisha, and I). Sal went through a pray for us. I think it was good for her. But Melissa is not what she seems to be. She is a back stabbing, family steeling bitch from what I heard. That is in my own words. I hate having to see Melissa hug Kole and say that Kole is her Kile right now. It makes me sick. Kenya is getting really close to closing the doors on Melissa real soon. She might limit who is going to be allowed up there and I know she would love to send Melissa home. I believe that will relax her as well. No one needs this extra stress and Kole doesn't like it at all.


Keep praying.

 
Reduced Meds
05.04.05 (5:09 pm)   [edit]

 Today I went with my mom to Charleviox to have lunch with my Grandpa. Than it was back to the hospital. I got to see Kile and he had his spike today. The swelling went passed 20 than came all the way down to 5. It stayed that way for a long time. The doctors decided to take him off the swelling medicine to see if he can keep it down himself. They are slowly taking him off. The last person that was allowed to see him was Kole. His girlfriend didn't even get to see him today. I was glad I got to. The points did go back up to 13 after the started taking him off the meds. I hope he can pull through for us. He has done a good job so far. All the help and support from everyone again is great. I'll be there again tomorrow. Keep the prays going.

 
Hope for Kile
05.03.05 (6:50 pm)   [edit]

 I was at the hospital for most of the day. I got to spend time with Melissa, Kile's girlfriend. She went over the accident and said it keeps replaying over in her mind and she started crying and I hugged her for a while. She also has a 7 year old son (she is 25) that saw the whole thing as well. He must be going through a lot considering during their vacation it was the first time her son and Kile said they loved each other. Plus, Melissa's sister called (because she is taking care of her son for her) and said Cody (Melissa's son) was drawing pictures of the accident all the way to school this morning. I was shocked. He is only 7 years old and he had to see this. I thought it was hard on Melissa being the girlfriend and all. Geez.


 I was allowed to go see Kile today. Kenya didn't want anyone to go see him because yesterday she felt like he was being put on display by Kole and his friends. She knows Kole didn't mean to but it just felt that way to her. She did want to take me back though. She told me I should have asked because I am considered family. (Everyone in the Swiss family has said I am a relative/family if people asked, I don't even say a word, they answer it for me.) So today she tried to limit it down a lot. The nurses told her no one would be allowed back unless Kenya was with them. When I saw him he look just like normal for the most part. The only thing was he was on a breathing tube and had a probe in his head.


 I did leave the hospital for a while and came back in the afternoon and took Kaleb to babysit and Jordan came along for the ride. Ron needed a break from all the kids. I came back after that and found out good news about Kile. Well, actually Kaleb told me in the car but Kenya retold me being so happy and all. Kile coughed twice and when the nurses lightly pinched his figure he pulled it away. :) At least there is some hope there. A lot of Kile's and Kole's friends were there again today to support them.


 Kenya is using me a lot for the things she needs. I help her with the kids and pick up and drop off stuff at the house for her. It is a big help to her and she enjoys having me there. I like Melissa aswell. She is sticking in there for Kile and we have had a lot of fun talking together and playing with the kids. We even joked around about a few things today which I think helped her. It was good to see her smile for once. Her and Kenya sleeping in the hospital everyday has got to be hard and they need a little lift and smile every once in a while. The bigger of the two ICU rooms as become owned my the Swiss family and the vistors. There is a corner filled with gifts and snack foods and it is so overwhelming. The whole community has been very supportive and has helped out a lot just being there for him. Especially those how know him. The waiting room becomes full everyday and as much as we like the support it can be too much. I will keep everyone informed on what goes on. I know those who weren't that close still want to know. The Swiss family has touched the hearts of many in the community and they thank you for your support back. Believe me Kenya did not know how much everyone cared and how they have touched tom many of us.


 Keep praying everyone. It really helps him a lot. Thanks again.

 
Update on Kile
05.02.05 (3:27 pm)   [edit]

 I was at the hospital all day today (for the most part). Kile is in ICU. :( He is banged up pretty badly. No one was allowed to go in today because they wanted to keep his brain waves calm (because of the swelling). His jaw in broken and his brain is cut in 5 places. They have a tube in his mouth to help him breath and they have a probe in his brain to help with the injury.


 What happen was: He was driving his girlfriends car to the airport with his girlfriend and his friend in the rental car behind him (they just got back from a trip). When he was coming over the hill, at the bottom a SUV was pulling out of a gas station and when he put on his brakes they didn't work. (This is what they think happened so far. The car is getting checked out today). He got hit dead on at a 90 degree angle and since a SUV hit him the car went car born and hit another parked car in the gas station parking lot. His girlfriend (Melissa) and his friend had to watch the whole thing happen. This all happened Sunday morning. Kile was rushed to the hospital and they had to put him in a medicated coma because of the brain damage.


 Kole, his twin brother, knew something happen before his mom even called. Kole answered the phone and said, "What is wrong?" He was in T.C. and drove all the way back really upset. He is not taking it well. He can't bare the fact that he wasn't there at the hospital when his brother arrived. The doctors don't mind him going into the room a lot and sitting with Kile because everytime he goes in the readings on the equiptment go down (which is a good thing). Kile knows when Kole is in there. I guess it is a twin thing.


 I am helping Kenya (Kile's mom) out as much as I can. I drove Kaleb and Kourtney back to the house and got a few things for her. Than Ron came back with Jordan and took Kaleb to baby-sit. Kourtney and I went back to the hospital and I was there as long as I felt I could be. Cristina was still back at my house and I felt bad. But I have known Kile since I was 6 years old. I don't think any one of those friends that were there felt the way I did. I am basically family (switch Kenya was telling a few people when some of her friends were there). His girlfriend was a wreck. I didn'treally get a chance to talk to her or meet her because when she arrived she went and took a shower. She seems nice. I think the person that is hit the hardest is between his mom and Kole. Kole is a wreck as well. He won't even look up at anyone and doesn't want to cry in front of any of the guys.


 I am going back tomorrow after I drop Cristina off at work. Kenya said to give her a call to see if she needs anything before I head over, that way I can pick it up on the way. Hopefully I can see Kile tomorrow. Even it is only from the window. That is what a few people were allowed to do. I didn't feel right asking and I know Kole would have to take me back and I didn't want him to have to go back there again. (He had been doing it all day but if I went back there I would need Kole there. I don't think I could handle it on my own.)


 So everyone, again, please pray for Kile. His mom doesn't care what his situation is as long as he is alive. Help us all pray. God is holding him right now since his mom can't but she needs to.

 
Pray for Kile
05.02.05 (7:35 am)   [edit]

 This morning was terrible. I woke up to a phone call that made me ball. My dad called from his work to say there was a car accident last night. That my Godbrother Kile Swiss was dead. I was freaking out. :( Five minutes later he called back saying he is getting mixed information. That Kile might be alive but in critical condition at the hospital. He has a head injury. :( I don't know how to handle this. You can't just call and ask if he is okay. No one is probably home anyway.


 My mom goes into work today at 1pm. She is going to check the computers to see if he has a room. If he does, I am going there this afternoon. I know his mom is going to need help. She has two other children in Middle school and one in elementary school. Plus, Kile's twin will probably want to stay around there by his brother. I don't mind helping my Godmother out. This is going to be really really hard on her. She is sooooo religious.


 So please everyone pray for Kile. It is not his time to go to heaven. He has so much ahead for him. Pray.

 
Goodbyes for the summer
05.01.05 (4:13 pm)   [edit]

 It was really sad to say bye to everyone at GV. I know I will see some of the same next year but I grew so close to some people. I really can't wait to go back nest year. I want to be downtown GR and on my own. I don't like the the studying and homework but other than that it is fun.


 I did go and visit Tyler again before I left for the summer. I went and spent the night at Steph's Wednesday night. Tyler and I got to hang out at Steph's that night until he left to go back to his dorm to sleep. We talked about our "relationship" a little. We decided that what happens happens. But he said he didn't want to not see me for 4 months. He said he doesn't know what he is going to do and that he night visit. I really don't know if he will or not but I guess we will see.


 Thursday night was pretty boring until Sean called. I packed and cleaned all day and thatn Sean from work called and asked if I wanted to go with him to get some boxes to help him pack. I said yes and than ended up going to his place to help him pack. It was not like I was busy at all so I offered to help him. I was there to 4am cleaning with h im. We were definately flirting the whole time and before I went home at 6am (just chilled and flirted basically for 2 horus) we ended up kisses. I was kinda cute and funny how it happened. He was trying to hide my camera from me and i finally ended up to get around him and got stuck after I got it. So he was joking with me saying he was going to do whatever to me because I was stuck. Than finally when he let me up he pciked me up and set me on his bed and kissed me. Sean is pretty cute and is really built so it was worth it to stay there and ended up getting a kiss from him. I still like Tyler though. Sean was just a fun kiss. LOL


 So I got 3 hours of sleep after I got back to my dorm because Lauren was so loud in the morning. After everything was packed Cristina and I said our goodbyes to Shannon and everyone else before we headed out for the drive. We had to stop in Cadillac because Cristina got tired but it was okay. (we had walkie- talkies to communicate in the cars) Once in Petoskey we stopped tot eat at Big Boy and than came back to my house to unpack. Currently I am still in the process of emptying my car and unpacking some of my bags but I will be done before the week is over. Cristina has to start work on Tuesday. I have no clue what I will do until I start to baby-sit. My moms plan is to torcher me by helping her clean the basement for 2 hours a day for $20. I guess it is better than nothin'.


 The new season of Family Guy starts tonight. YEAH! I am addicted to that show now, thanks to Mike (M). Well I guess I am out. I sure I will be able to write more later since I have no job for a while.

 
Amityville Horror
04.23.05 (4:20 pm)   [edit]

 Okay so Julie and I went to a movie Thursday night. We saw Amityville Horror. I just about peed my pants and I covered my face the whole movie. It wasn't too much as to say scary than it was graphic. It was freaky though.


 Friday Julie joined me for the ride to Lansing. Her boyfriend goes to MSU so I dropped her off and proceed to Steph's. Tyler had called me earlier saying he was going to take a nap before he came to get me. After I was at Steph's for a while Tyler called and came over. We all hung out and went to the mall for Steph could show me the rings she is getting for her parents 30th wedding anniversity. Tyler was really tired until he got some Mountain Dew in him. When we got back to Steph's he had a lot of energy. I wrestled around with him a little bit, needless to say he won without a fight. Steph kept on taking pictures of us. She didn't get any really good ones but at least I got some. Than we waited for gabe to come over and we all decided to go to the movies. Well, I didn't think we were going to go to the movies so that is why I went to see Amityville the day before. Oh no, they all had over plans against me. They all wanted to see it. Screw you all! LOL So I was stuck in going to the movie again but Steph told me to look at it this way, "You can jump on Tyler if you are scared." Well I thought the same thing but I knew what was going to happen when in the movie.


 During the movie I had my feet up on my seat and Tyler had his arms around my knees and I leaned against him. At least I knew when to cover my face and Tyler could tell so he would pull me closer at those parts. After the movie, Gabe dropped us off at Tyler's dorm and I stayed at his place for the night. Steph was freaked and decided to stay at Gabe's. Tyler thought the movie was probably the scariest one he has seen yet.


 We got up around noon. Well, I was up before that. I woke him up at 12:35pm I didn't want to just lay there any longer. Than I called Steph and I asked when she was going to be back at her apartment. Than about and hour or so later she was back and Tyler took me back over there. He gave me a kiss goodbye and a hug. I was happy and sad at the same time. I didn't want to go. I took a shower at Steph's than called Julie. I picked her up and we headed back to GVSU in the rain and snow. (YA, SNOW AT THE END OF APRIL. MICHIGAN.) I than did one exam (since it was online) and now am studying my butt off today and tomorrow. OH JOY, HOW MUCH FUN.


 My opinion about Tyler: What should I say. I guess I do I like. I am good at turning off my feelings for people until I am sure it is what I want. There are always going to be pro's and con's in a person. Tyler has his faults just like everyone else. I just don't know what to think. He isn't mean, he's sweet, funny, cute, nice, a good kisser, okay a little off subject know. But I just don't know. I am going to be gone for the summer. Him and I had talked about this the first time we talked online. Neither of us want to get attched and be so far away from each other in the summer. So I guess we are friends that like each other? I don't know. I don't know how he feels about me anymore. I don't know if it has changed or not. Obviously he likes hanging out with me and wants to see me whenever he can get the chance to. He likes making out with me (but every guy likes to I guess- not me personally but guys like to kiss girls). We want to see each other one last time if possible before summer. So I might go down there Wednesday. I don't know yet though.


 I'll keep my options open. Who knows what will happen. Maybe I will be with Tyler maybe I will find someone else. Who knows. I just wish I knew...

Study Break
04.21.05 (11:58 am)   [edit]

 Well I am on a study break. I really hate final exams. I am so worried about them. I have 2 back to back on Monday starting at 10am and noon. I haven't started studying for them yet which is probably a bad idea. Than I work from 2:15-6:45pm. Tuesday I have no exams but I am working noon to 5:15pm. I know, sounds stupid but I could use the money. Wednesday I have 2 back to back exams again. One at 8am and one at 10am. I have been working on my cheat paper for geography, which is that day. As for math I will work on all that on Tuesday night. I need that to be freshly put back into my head to do well. If I would have taken that test today I would have failed. I was just not doing well at all in class today when we did the review and they were all stupid mistakes.


 My plan for the rest of the day is to study my ass off as much as i can without going crazy. NOT POSSIBLE. Than maybe a movie tonight. Julie and I feel we need a break. I just want these exams to be over. I will be so happy when I have no more homework for the summer.

 
A Good Salesperson
04.18.05 (3:19 pm)   [edit]

 I forgot to include that last weekend Steph, Gabe, and I went to visit Christina at work. (Dave's Boot Shop) By the time we left we all had bought a pair of shoes. Damn, her. (joking) LOL. She is really good.


 Also when she was helping another customer we went downstairs to look at shoes and Gabe foung these slippers. He told me to feel them and than I tried them on. OMG, it was like sex for your feet. I even said that and we all started laughing. But they were. Those are the best slippers yet.

 
Radio-active Dad
04.17.05 (7:02 pm)   [edit]

 A weekend back home might of not been the exact thing I needed in terms of my house. I had fun hanging out with Gabe and Steph and than Christina the next. At my house it was bitch-fest or something. I just didn't want to be at my house because my dad and sister were always yelling at each other over something. I don't know how my mom deals with that all the time.


 As far as the title goes for this blog. My dad had to take a radio-active pill on Friday to help kill or reduce the function of this thighroid (spelling, come on I am not a doctor people). For 3 days everyone need to be at least 7 feet away from him if you are with him for more than 15mins. Than after the 3 days you can be around him but not for hours at a time. He had to sleep in my room and I had the couch. He will be like this for 11 days than my mom will go through and clean my room and change the sheets and stuff. He has to follow a lot of rules while he is like this. They are crazy.


 When I got back down here Shannon, Cristina, Laura, Ashley (friend of Shannon's), and I went downtown for a cookout for dinner. It was pretty cool, free food! then when I got back Lauren and I moved our room around. We had to un-loft our beds for check-out so we decided to get it done and over with. There is less room but there is  only 2 more weeks to go.


 I still have no job for May and June. Both of my plans fell through. So I am left with nothing. If anyone has any options or ideas I am so open for them. Otherwise, I might just have to get a temp. job (like fast food :( ) than quit for July and August.


 My plan for this week is to study, pack, study, study, study. Go to MSU this weekend (friday and saturday) and come back Saturday afternoon so start studying more and take one of my exams. (I am stopping by Steph's when I get there so I can park there and than Tyler can pick me up and she can meet him.) Than I have exams Monday and Wednesday. Than Wednesday afternoon head to MSU for the night. I want to see Tyler one more time before the summer. I know I will probably see him next fall but that is 3 1/2 months away. We aren't together so it is no big deal but there is no problem with seeing him one last time before I leave for the summer. My dad is going to be down here that Friday to help bring Cristina and my stuff up. Oh boy, there is just so much to do. This is crazy!!!! 

 
"Love me if you Dare"
04.14.05 (7:24 pm)   [edit]

 Today I really wanted to rent a movie called Love Me If You Dare. When I went to Family Video to rent it they didn't have it. I found out it is a French video and they didn't carry it. So I went to talk to Shannon and she called Blockbuster and they had it, but they wouldn't hold it. So we left to go rent it and we were 2 seconds, literally, late. This lady had just rented it before we got to it. GRRRRRRRRRRRR. I was so pissed. It looked so cute and I was bored and wanted to see it.


 This new song came out on the radio about a week ago and I love it. It is called Grind On Me by Pretty Rickie. I asked Tyler about it because I wasn't sure the name and who sang it. He knew what is was and wanted to download it, so he did. Than he teased me by listening to it and singing it to me online and than he said hold on. He sent me the file and so now I have it and I am the only one here that does (at least on itunes). He said I owe him though.


 Okay, I think I am falling for tyler. He is so nice, good personality, and hot (which is just a bonus). We talk all the time online when we are both on and he calls me just to see what is up and talk. He even told me to call him this weekened if I wanted. I just might but I think I might let him call me. hehehe. I can't wait to see him next weekend. I am going down to MSU next Friday to Saturday than coming back to study for exams. I was suppose to have my night out with Mike on Friday but we just decided to have dinner sometime instead (since his fiance and all).


 I am taking a bunch of stuff home this weekend. I really never realized how much shit i had down here, seriously. Hopefully, next year I won't have to move it from my room since I will be there for 3 years. I don't think I would mind having the same room all the time. I am also going to see a few friends when I am home. (Steph, Gabe, etc...) If anyone else wants to see me give me a call.


 I also talked to the BBBS director here and he asked me a few questions and said that i should wait until next fall (August) to sign up because they do a full "at home" (visiting me and my room) interview. The whole process takes about 3-4 weeks. I am really excited. I want to make another little girls life special.


PS: Tom is still trying to say sorry. Umm...not gonna work.

 
Great
04.13.05 (12:37 pm)   [edit]

 Coming back from work yesterday I was very happy. I got to ride around in the cop car all day and than Shannon and Cristina tell me they signed me up for BBBS (Big Brothers Big Sisters). I was so happy because I have always wanted to do that.


 Later that night, after my floor meeting, I started talking to people online and found out some bullshit I didn't need to hear about and couldn't believe happened. This is where I went from happy to down right sick with sadness. For the person you got involved in someone else's personal life TOM. Go to f*ckin hell :!: What you did was completely wrong and uncalled for. People should really not be getting involved in others personal life's unless asked.


 For those it does involve I am sorry. I didn't mean to hurt anyone by what happened. The fact is, it happened, and it didn't directly involve anyone else and wasn't suppose to. I know I have lost respect from many of you. I didn't want that to happen. My closest friends back home mean the world to me and now I don't think I will ever have them back after what happened. I called Steph last night crying and she told me that I at least had her: "Everyone does bad things and wrong things. It is okay. And with all this, I can understand why you didn't want to say anything. It is understandable." Thanks, Steph. I really don't think I could have lived with knowing I had lost my best friend since 7th grade over this. I would really like to put this in the past and move on and if possible have my friends back. I know it will take a while for some to get over this or deal with it in their own way, but I would really like my friends back. I don't want to agrue anymore or fight about this. It is all drama. So instead of commenting agrue out on the keyboard, please breathe and wait till this all settles down.

 
Tyler's visit
04.11.05 (6:06 am)   [edit]

 Yesterday Tyler got here in the afternoon. It was good to see him again. He gave me a hug when he got here. We got to talk for about an hour (not about much really) because I had to go to a "Girl's Night Out." So I left at about 6:40pm to meet the girls at The B.O.B. for dinner. It was good and Shannon made a poem for all of us about every little stupid things that have happened through out the year. It was really funny and sweet. As we all walked back to our cars we got "cat calls" the whole time and guys honked their horns.


 When I got back Tyler was on the computer looking up directions to make sure he knew how to get back. He did. Than we watched TV, got his parking pass, and watched more TV and talked. When Lauren (roomate) went to bed so did we. We didn't want to talk and wake her up.


 But now I must wake him up and get ready for class. Than he will be leaving. :( Maybe I will go see him this weekend. I would like to see Steph as well but I think she way be going home instead of staying down there.

John's Visit
04.09.05 (3:50 pm)   [edit]

 It was soooo much fun to have John visit. He called me when he got into town and I went over to see him at this Jamie girl's apartment. It was so great to talk and catch up. We probably talked about all the new stuff that has happened all night and of course talk with others. Than is the morning talked about all these old memories. It was great. I also learned a few things about him I didn't know from before so that was interesting. I also scared the crap out of him from something he mentioned and I told him the truth and he was freakin out and I told him, "Just chill out. It didn't happen. So you are lucky." It had to do with bad memories and bad people. He also agreed that Tom is an ass and that I deserve better. All in all it was fun and I hope I can hang out with him again soon. And yes Lauren he didn't look that scarey with a shaved head. It was just weird. I like the long hair more but that is just me.


 Tyler called me earlier. He said he was going to call me later tonight but he wanted to make sure I still wanted him to come and visit tomorrow. I said yes of course. He probably won't get here till leither 3 or 4. I am still undecided on the all girls dinner. We'll just have to wait and see how things go.

John and Tyler are visiting
04.07.05 (5:20 pm)   [edit]

 Well an update on Tom is this email from him:  Like hell you will, you only care about yourself and what you can get. Stay out of my business and my life.
You mean nothing to me anymore.


 Yeah, so that is what he said. Whatever, I am through with that shit.


 So John is coming by to visit tomorrow. He is coming with his friend Chris and they are staying at Chris's girlfriends place. John told me he is going to visit though. It will be cool to see him and talk to him and catch up. Apparently he shaved his head and I am a little scared to see that turn out but whatever I guess. I have a feeling he is going to look weird though.


 Tyler is also coming to see me on Saturday night or Sunday. I will finally get to talk to him and just hang out. I really don't know what to think though. I have a weird feeling about him but I don't know what it is. It might be good, it might be bad, I just don't know. I guess I will have to wait and find out though.


 The bad thing about Sunday is we are suppose to have a girls night out. Well, Cristina can't go because she has a work meeting and if Tyler is here I really don't want to go. Plus, I really hate being around Shannon and Sara, mostly when they are together. Sara thinks she is all that sometimes and when Shannon is with her she agrees with her and really mean things she says. So I really don't like being with them when Cristina is not there to back me up. Let's just say I am glad I am not living with Sara next year. Shannon and Sara don't mix well with me and from what Cristina tells me she feels the same way.


 So I have two visitors coming to see me. YEAH. :D A friend to catch up with and a guy that could possible be a new crush. I can't wait to see what happens. I am so excited.

 
Goodbye to Tom
04.06.05 (7:08 pm)   [edit]

 Okay, Tom emailed me this:    You need to get your shit together!
I did YOU a FAVOR and all you can do is fucking yell and bitch at me, for what???
Seriously, you need to get your shit together. I don't want to hear from you, see you, or even know that you are still alive until you can control yourself, understand!?!?

TK

P.S.   The dolphin still looks like shit!!!!  And you ower $15 for gas!!!!
(eventhough I said I wasn't hungry, that makes no dif. you were supposed to do one or the other, so you owe me money for gas; mail it to me, or have someone else get it to me)


 And I mailed him this:   


Tom,


   I am not putting up with this anymore. I did not yell at you and you know that. You got inpatient because we had to wait for an hour. I never yelled at you once there. I just told you to chill out because you were getting all up tight. So if you want to be mad at someone blame yourself. I knew ahead of time that this place might piss you off and I warned you and gave you the option whether or not to go. I'll be fine. I'll move on. But you really need to learn how to control yourself and stop blaming others for how you feel. I can't take you constantly mad at me for shit I don't do. I will not put up with it anymore Tom. I will not try to talk to you from this point on unless you talk to me first and I am not going to be able to hang out with you if you are going to be easily mad.


  The dolphin looks fine. I like it, it is on my body deal with it or don't because you don't have to. I don't owe you $15 in gas. No way in hell do I owe that much. That trip uses 1/8 of a tank in gas on my car. I know, I have driven it a few times. I owe you $5 if anything. I offered food more than once to you. And you could have asked for gas money.


 So if this is goodbye I am sorry. I do wish you luck in everything. I hope you can be happy (without me since, to you, I am the problem) from now on. I'll always care about you.


    & nbsp;   &n bsp;   &nb sp;   &nbs p;     ;         & nbsp;   &n bsp;   &nb sp;   &nbs p;     ;         & nbsp;   &n bsp;   &nb sp;   &nbs p;     ;         & nbsp;   &n bsp;   &nb sp; Emily Sussman


 I think that pretty much explains it.

 
Touched Up
04.06.05 (3:32 pm)   [edit]

 Today I went to K-zoo to get my tattoo touched up. Tom came along and I agreed because he was going to drive. (Gas is so expensive) While we were waiting he got really impatient and started to get grumpy. After I get my tattoo touched up we headed back and I asked what his problem was and he bitched at me again. Okay, whatever, I am not going to put up with this so next time he wants to hang out or talk he can ask me first and if he is going to get bitchy I am not going to put up with it. I had to this time so I could get back home.


 Last night was so awesome. Tyler and I talked online from 8pm to 12:30am. It was great. He really likes me and he is so sweet. I didn't think he would be the type to do that. He really wants to see me again and just hang out and talk since we really didn't get to the night we were drinking. He also said he doesn't want to get too attached because the semester is almost over and I am going to be so far away in the summer. I agree with him. I don't want to get attached because of the distance and have something bad happen between us in the summer if we were to hook up. Cristina told me to tell him that we should hang out a few more times before summer to see if there might be something there and than talk during the summer and than next year if we want to hook up we can. It doesn't bother me that he will be an hour away when I am down here. He is so sweet and says the sweetest things. He said he had been thinking about me since I left, and that he liked me personality right from the start when he met me, and that he really wants to see me again, and he said he will find a way to see me this weekend. I hope so. I really want to get to know him better and spend time with him. Plus, if we hit it off maybe later we can make out again because he is a great kisser. LOL. He was in K-zoo when I was there today but I was with Tom so I wouldn't have been able to see him. Since he is at home I don't think I will be able to talk to him tonight. :(  Every since he said he liked me I have been thinking about him and when I would see him next.

 
Goebel is hot
04.04.05 (2:38 pm)   [edit]

 Today was probably one of the funest days at work. Ever since Deyshia went on leave to have her baby and take care of it, Goebel has been our afternoon boss and Paul took over the morning staff. Okay, Goebel is really hot and he is a guy in uniform so that just makes it all better. The other cool thing is he is not that old and he flirts with Jessica and I at work. It is sad though because he is leaving next year for an actual police department (not like GVSU isn't but I wouldn't want to be a college cop my whole life either).


 So anyway, today at work: Well Jessica and I went to drive around in the cop truck for a while with Goebel and patrol the campus. Than he decided he was hungry so we went to Burger King and he bought us a milk shake to drink while we "worked" (sat in the truck in a parking lot where no one would see us). On the way back to finding a good parking lot to hide in a call came over the radio that there was an accident on the other side of campus. So Goebel turned on his lights and slammed on the gas and started driving to the other side of campus. It was a lot of fun. He had to turn on the sirens a few times to make people move. Plus, the accident was a little fender bender it was a pretty good accident. Not saying that I wanted to see someone hurt but usually it is just a car bumping into another car. But no one was hurt. One of the cars was just smashed up in the front and was leaking some kind of fluid (didn't look like oil) and it was a little smokey on one side. I felt bad for that girl. If college isn't hard enough to pay for, now she has to get her car fixed or get a new one. I don't know maybe she has money.


 So Goebel (he first name is Matt by the way) had to go write up the accident to she had to get out of the truck and walk around and write tickets. It was quite a while before be got done with the report so I hope he food was still okay when he got done.


 Tyler called me last night (the guy from Climax). We talked for a while and Cristina talked to this Larry guy (he was at the party too, I guess I just didn't talk to him at all). Tyler wants to hang out again. I have no clue when though. Who knows. :roll:

 
Climax Boys
04.02.05 (4:19 pm)   [edit]

 Yesterday was awesome. Cristina, Shannon, and I went to Kalamazoo to get Cristina's car and than went to Climax for a party. When we first got there it was 7ish and nothing was really going on. The boys were playing basketball and they weren't cute and Shannon and I were really bored. Than Cristina was pointing out the guys and their names and when Tyler finally came out (the party was at his house) I was like "Damn!" He wasn't that hot but out of all the guys there he was. So after a while of being outside we finally went inside to wait for the keg. Shannon and I started to talk to the guys and found out they really aren't that bad and they grow on you throughout the night. A lot of the guys were hitting on me and were very nice about it and it made me laugh so much. When the keg arrived I said I had never seen a keg stand before so a few the guys decided to do one. Tyler called me over to watch and he went first. From that point on Tyler and I were talking all night. I don't know why but he just started to really losen up about everyone being there and started having fun and talking more. I tried not to flirt too much with him because I knew Cristina wanted to hook up with him.


 We kept on drinking and Shannon was, of course, taking pictures. She got some good ones. I talked to Cristina alone and she said not to worry about the Tyler thing because she was going to hook up with Shawn (yes, he spells it the girly way and he is a model--- nice upper body too) So I than let myself flirt with Tyler. I had about 3 tall glasses of beer and than Ty and I decided just to split them between us the rest of the night because we kinda wanted to keep control of the situation. So we split maybe a half of one and 2 energy/alcohol drinks (which were really good).


 At about 1am Shannon was tried and went upstairs to sleep and Matt went with her to talk. He liked Cristina but she didn't like him. Than Cristina came up to me and told me she had kissed Shawn and was going to go upstairs with him for the night. By that time I had already kissed Tyler a few times but had to stay up with him until everyone left. So Cristina went upstairs at about 2:45am and than when Tyler and I had brought the dog in for the night and were going to head upstairs I hear Shannon screaming. I ran upstairs and she screamed my name and was like, "Emily, Cristina is such a f*ckin' slut! She is a slut! She is in there with Shawn and she was being load! So I yelled at her to stop and than I heard nothing." I really didn't know what to say. I knew what Cristina was going to do and I know she is not a slut and that Shannon had way too much to drink. So I was like, "ok." Than Cristina came out of the room she was in and Tyler went in to talk to Shawn and than I went to Tyler's room becaue I had had enough for one night and was tired. Tyler came in a few minutes later and we both just laid down and talked for a while than made out a little and talked some more before we fell asleep.


 In the morning I of course had a headache and didn't feel so good. I got up early because I heard Cristina downstairs cleaning up and I went down to talk to her. Than when Shannon was up we left. She asked if I had sex with Tyler and I told her no. Why would I have sex with him? I don't even know him. She said he was telling a few people that we was going to. And I broke out laugh. I was like, "Well, if he said that too bad for him because he didn't get shit." I really don't know if he said that or not. But if he did too bad for him. I'm not like that.


 We talked about everything that had happen that night in the car ride back. Everything that happened between Cristina and Shawn was solved. Matt won't ever talk to Cristina again (we think). Shannon didn't hook up with anyone (only because she is with Freddie). I made out with Tyler and was hit on by just about every other guy there as well. It actually made me feel good to have a few guys hitting on me. I never had felt like I was that pretty and I dressed cute for last night and I think I accomplised my mission.


 When I got back to my dorm I showered and Tom wanted to come over because he was bored. I said sure and than later we had dinner with my mom (she was here for her reserves). I am suppose to join Cristina and her sister, Laura, for a movie tonight. (Her sister was allowed to come back with us to visit). Cristina and I need some time away from Shannon and since Shannon is suppose to be going out tonight we are staying in.

 
Really need to study more
03.31.05 (3:20 pm)   [edit]

 I can't believe this week went by so fast. I have a test tomorrow and I am so screwed. I don't know any of this shit and I really hate getting C's in this class. I was so happy I got a B on the last test in there and now I will probably get a C again. I really don't expect to get the best grades in college but I know I could be doing better when it comes to studying. I just get so damn distracted by everything that I don't think ahead.


 Again it is the surprise of Michigan weather kicking in. It was a beautiful first part of the week and than today was so windy and cold. Damn Michigan!


 Tomorrow, Cristina, Shannon, and I are suppose to go down to Cristina's house to get her car and than go to Climax to see a bunch of these hot guys she knows. We might stay the night as well. That means Shannon and I will probably come back Saturday even if Cristina doesn't. My mom is going to be in town for her Army weekend so I might go see her.


 Either next week or the following week I am going to go get my tattoo touched up. They won't touch them up on Friday's which sucks because I could have done it tomorrow. So I have to go down there during the week to get it done. Grrrrr.


 Well I be get back to studying. I also have to order a flag. I am getting a 5ft by 3ft Ireland flag to hang in my window for down town next year. I have always wanted to do that. The thing is I have to order it since I can't find a store that sells them. Oh well, as long as it is a safe site to buy off of.

 
Easter 05
03.27.05 (5:41 pm)   [edit]

 On Wednesday and Thursday Cristina and I checked out a model room of what our room will look like next year. It is pretty cool. We have a full kitchen (big fridge, YES) and each have out own rooms, which we don't have to loft our beds in so we have a lot of room, and the bathroom is the same. We looked at the fire exit map on the door and found out our room is a corner room so that means it is a little bit bigger. At least that is what the picture shows.


 Easter weekend was okay. I got to go see Miss Congeniality 2 on Saturday and than have Easter dinner at my Grandma since I left today, a hour after church.


 On Saturday, on the way to my Grandma's, Mike V called me. He said he had good news to tell me. He said that him and Kate were engaged :!: :shock: I wanted to say, "You are such an idiot! Stupid! OMG!" But instead I said, "Oh, when did this happen and how did you do it?" Okay, if you have been paying attentino Mike has been with Renee for 1 and 1/2 years and was going to ask her but than they broke up. Than he went out with Sarah for a couple of weeks and now he is with Kate. And they haven't even been together for 2 months yet. And no she is not pregnant. I just don't know why he did it and why she said yes. I wouldn't have. What a dumb shit. But I guess he can make his own mistakes and I will talk to him about it soon. 


 I need to go get my tattoo touched-up. It has a few spots that need more color and I want to out line the stars so that they look better. I showed my mom and she said, "You did that already, huh? Well, it doesn't  look infected." Leaveit up to a nurse to say that. My sister didn't believe me and asked a few question and my dad was like, "That is a tank and a half of gas you could have gotten with that money." :roll: Geez, the words of my parents only. At least they didn't freak. I even showed my Grandma and my parents friends (Eddi and Any) (they liked it, plus I think their son Sven might have one or something).


 So now it is back to school and a lot of work. Exams on the way and I am sure it will go by fast. I also get to sign up for classes on Wednesday. I hope I get what I want.

 
Beer Run Mike
03.19.05 (8:40 pm)   [edit]

 Today I was woken up byt the fire alarm going off in the whole building. It was 10:30am and I was mad I had to get out of bed. Grrrr. (someone burnt bacon) When we were aloud back in Cristina came into my room and was like "I have been up since 8am!" I told her she was crazy and had her take off my wrap onto of my tattoo.


 My tattoo finally stopped dripping and not it is starting to scab over. I can't really tell right now but if I touch it I can tell. Everyone that has seen it likes it too. So I guess I picked a good one.


 I went and say Constantine with Cristina and her friend Aaron today. Than I came back and watch First Daughter with Julie. I had to stop in the middle of the movie to go on a beer run though. Cristina and I decided we wanted to get something to drink tonight and so I called Mike to supply us. I went with him and he got us some beer and gave me my money back and said it was on him and not to worry about it. He said he would supply us whenever we wanted. So I am having a cold one and waiting for Cristina to get off work at 2am but I think I might take a nap for an hour.
