BRIEF post dance marathon update

I made it ALL the way through UNC Dance Marathon!

Lets have a hoorah for all of the dancers that made it all the way through AND especially for those magnificent members of the class of '06.

I am so tired. Dance Marathon has you up for 24 hours straight with no sitting down in order to raise money and identify with the suffering that families of children at the NC Children's Hospital endure. My lower AND upper back, legs, and feet are killing me. I'm basically good for nothing right now.

We were in a gym on campus and thus I basically just felt like a vat of grime when I left. My face was covered in sweat. My hair was matted down and it was just not cute for me basically. I can't wait to see what I look like in pictures. My guess is a hot blazing mess. Oh well.

Sorry this is so rushed; I want to get to sleep.

see this is why i love my '06 peeps

Hahahaha.... there just isn't enough space for me to express how much fun I had tonight. Wow.

Ok so I just have to say that I was so hype about this weekend. I've had four exams in the past two weeks. I NEEDED a good weekend.

So it all actually started last night; I got up with Bobby (Mr. Senior Class President! 0000000006!!!!) early an we went over to the Verge where he lives. We worked out at the gym, then had a little din din, and started to get ready. We had agreed earlier that week that we were going to go out for drinks. Well of course I had to bring the duo out so I called Brandon and he also came over the Verge. Those fools forced (yes forced) me to take Jose shots. Now me and Jose Cuervo haven't gotten along since Mexico and I swore I was done with him. But he always manages to come back into my life.

Anyways tho, we get out into the streets. Brandon calls Crystal because I knew she wanted to come out. We also manage to snatch up another of my friends, Jason, and we end up meeting him at Top O. Top O was the same as always, lots of random people with an even more random live band. Ugh. Gag me with a spoon. Anyways, we all treated outselves to a drink (Jason had disappeared at this point). Tell me why we sat at a little table and took multiple pictures for NO REASON! Oh my we are oh so silly.

So after that we left Top O; Brandon dragged Crystal off to go and get a Black n Mild and Bobby, Jason, and I went to Carolina Coffee Shop. That was wackness in a bottle and Bobby and I left to go to Players. Now Players on Thursday night is a good old stand by. We get in there and we so so many 06ers. Great. I saw some people straight getting it. Shout outs to Namasheena and Lashaun Price.

So that brings us to today. First today was a day when I just had to sit back, sigh, and realize how much I love my school. Like Carolina is just beautiful on so many levels and NO other university can match us; don't fool yourself.

So I had dinner tonight with Tracey, Bobby, Lashaun, and Kathryn. We went to Alehouse in Durham and it was a mess. I mean... i'm sure others will have comments in their livejournals. Anyways, but the service was just wackness. First off, we ordered our drinks and it took them 20 minutes to bring it. Second, when they brought out the food there wasn't something wrong or missing with everyone' s order except mine. I mean really though. So Lashaun, Kathryn, and Bobby talked to the waiter AND the manager. And honestly I felt like the manager was kinda giving them the brush off. Well Lashaun and Kathryn weren't having that; they definately let their feelings be known. I doubt that Alehouse will be getting out patronage again in the near future.

So afterwards, Bobby, Kathryn, and I went to Southpoint to see Underworld 2. Its a good, pointless, violence ridden action film; which is a great type of film to see with friends. We had ourselves a good time. Why has Bobby acting all scared; it is NOT a scary film. I mean, he had me in there just jumping for no reason.

Afterwards, we too a good little trip over to the Cheesecake Factory for no reason. Bobby just wanted cheesecake and Kathryn was infected by the desire as well. I'd never even been inside Cheesecake Factory; the waitstaff was really nice. I will definately return for a real meal soon.

Anyways, i'm only up right now because my best friend Brandon is still at the Verge drunk as all hell. I have to stay up long enough to call him at 2:05 and make sure he's on his way back to the Verge bus. Ok... beddy bed for me.

Tonight's quotes (only a few of the gems of tonight):
"Please get in your time out box."
"I need to bite into something. I don't care what it is. I need a fork and a napkin."
"I was hoping my look would kill you."

whoa.........

What have I been doing with my life lately? The answe: Slacking off and being lazy. That includes in terms of both blogs and life.

Tomarrow will be my fourth exam in two weeks and I haven't really studied for any. However so far the count is one A and one B. Boo-YAH!

Haha. Anyways, the past few weeks have been just filled with drama: fights with friends, the boy acting crazy, yelling at med school people, trying to save money, looking for a second job, student elections, random homework, and less and less sleep. What a world, what a world.

But at least thi week/weekend should be good. I get paid on Friday and i'm determined to save money (as per usual), but also to enjoy myself a bit.

Valentines Day passed without incident. My mom got the flowers I sent her; she was really surprised and called me like three times that day. I just refused to be bitter about Valentines Day like the majority of people. Just because you don't have a significant other on that day doesn't mean you can't celebrate love in all its form. I used to be one of those bitter Valentine's Day people, but no more. I know that my family loves me and I have close friends whom I love as well. I think a positive attitude is very attractive and who knows what might happen.

I'm really ready for this spring break craziness to be over. Ugh. Its so hard to get a group together and agree on anything. Lord. I'm going somewhere though (Miami to be exact) and noone is going to stop me. I might not be there as long as I want or with all the folks I want, but dammit i'm going to have a good time. So hopefully that will get sorted out; I just send up a quick one to J.C. that it does.

Anyways, i'm sleepy (what a shock) and at work so I guess i'd better get.
