11:07 pm	to delete or not to delete, that is the question. Hey y'all. I know I haven't updated in recent history (7 weeks according to the track the lj people are keeping). I don't know whether or not to keep or delete my lj. I've been doing a lot of thinking about it. There are certain people that I wouldn't mind not having to keep in touch with, but there are other people (like my Wheaton friends Sarah N. and Elena) that this is my only means of keeping in touch with them and I don't want to lose that. None of my AZD sisters or other New Orleans friends have lj, so that doesn't help my cause much. I know this is definitely not a place for free speech, I know that speaking my mind has caused sparks to fly sometimes and unnaturally harsh methods have been taken to silence me simply for having a different opinion than them. for a while that worked, but I realized I shouldn't have to be silenced by pig ignorance. is it worth my time to keep this? Shawntiyah's vote is that I make a new one and keep this one too. Cause in addition to all the harsh words that were exchanged, I have a lot of good memories on here too. it's a look back into my past. it's the same reason I kept my old diary after I filled it up. Quizzes and games that I would like to remember are here. But there is also a lot of neglect. I wouldn't be surprised if nobody responds to this. Bascially this is just asking for a second opinion. Do enough of you care if I live or die that I should keep this? Do enough of you want to read my thoughts that I should keep this? This isn't bull, this is what I am contemplating at the moment and I honestly want to know if anyone missed me. I'm not trying to beg for attention or anger anyone. I just wanted to know if anyone even noticed I was gone... (6 Comments |Comment on this)

1:23 pm	I don't know what to say... I have only one final left. Biology. The one that is going to kick my ass. But I have 2 days before I have to take it so I can study then. Just one final left. Just 5 days left. It's so sad. I am probably the only college student ever to want summer to be over with and next semester to begin. Cause for me, summer is going to suck. Next semester is going to rock! I can't stand to be away from all my friends, and my AZD sisters and everyone. Don't get me wrong, I love my family, but like they're all that's waiting for me back there. I don't want to leave. I don't want to leave here. I mean, just a few days ago Stefanie and I were rocking out at Tuck's and I learned how to do the dance! The dance that everyone in LA seems to know how to do but I didn't until that night at Tuck's, I felt so lame when I didn't know how to do it, now I do and I feel so great, so much more connected to these people and less like an ignorant ass. It's just one baby step in the right direction. Enough of those baby steps and in a few years I can get a house here, get married, and nobody would know me as anything but Sarah who went to UNO and was an AZD and now is a fashion designer living in Metairie/uptown/the garden district/Houma/Lafayette or wherever else I decide to live after college. That's all I want. I can't wait. Of course I plan to enjoy college life before that: more parties at Tuck's, living in the apartment with Shawntiyah, hanging out with my sisters, cleaning up the city with the student activities council...all of it. My dad thinks I need a break from here. I don't. I'm going to miss it all. (Comment on this)

11:58 pm	yay! Today was an awesome day. I learned I can exempt my psych final, leaving me just 3 finals next week! Then I went out for sushi w/ my good guy pal Ed, which was fun. Then Shawntiyah IMed me saying we would definitely be roommates in our old apartment (now completely renovated) next semester. AND that that awesome show "Dinosaurs" (y'all know which one I mean, the one where the baby goes "Not the Mama!" and hits the guy on the head w/ a frying pan) is going to be released on DVD this month!!! OMG that is going to KICK ASS! We are going to have the coolest apartment ever w/ the best DVD collection, I already have the rest of AZD signing up to have a party in the apartment. Life is wonderful! At least it is for now. I should enjoy it while I still have it. Tomorrow hopefully me and Stefanie are going to the Lush shop event downtown. Sweet. (2 Comments |Comment on this)

4:50 pm	uno de mayo OMG it just hit me today. I am going to be LEAVING in 14 days. I will have to leave all my friends. I will have to leave the city: Jackson Square, the Cafe Du Monde, Roadkill Boutique, Magazine Street, the Lush shop (well at least the one here where the people know me), Bourbon Street....and so on. I will have to leave the school, all my teachers and the people who work the convenience store who know me. I was buying gum today at the university center, and Cheryl, the nice lady who works there is like "that's all, two packs of gum?" and I'm like, yeah. She's like "are you going to class?" and I'm like, no, I just got back, I'm headed home. Then she said "Oh, bye, Miss Sarah, you have a nice day". I don't know why that hit me, something so simple. I am going to miss this so much. I will have to be away from it for 3 1/2 months. What do I have to go back to? My parents, my sister, my car, a kitchen, a bathtub, that is about it. My whole life is here, my friends are here, my AZD sisters are here, the vast majority of my good memories are here. At least I have next semester to look forward to. And my other 14 days left of living here, soaking up the sun while I can. But enough of the gloomy stuff. Here is a survey stolen from Sarah N.! Whip out your music program, click the random button, and pick out 10 songs. Alter the name by turning it into a convoluted, wordy synonym. For example: Silent Night = Nocturnal Time Completely Lacking Noise. When someone guesses the title correctly, italicize the convoluted one and put the real title and the person who figured it out. 1. Brightly colored flying insect *** Butterfly, Sarah N. 2. Lizard characterized by certain Buddhist principle *** Karma Chameleon, Erin 3. Subsequently the dawn arrives *** Then The Morning Comes, Erin 4. Moron from the U.S. *** American Idiot, Sarah N. 5. 1980's video game system *** Atari, Sarah N. 6. The act of collecting straw and putting it into compact packages 7. Coronary organ made of superheated sand *** Heart of Glass, Sarah N. 8. Pardon my intrusion, sir *** Excuse Me Mr., Erin 9. Give a strike of the foot to the buttocks of another 10. Adoration paired with euphoria Have fun y'all (4 Comments |Comment on this)

12:27 pm	initiation day Yeah so I haven't updated in a while. I have had more important things to do. Tonight is my initiation night to AZD. Tonight I will no longer be a new member and I will officially be an active. Nice! My room is a mess, I have been making Stefanie's presents all week, and I'm still working on her last one. Just next week and then finals. I welcome the break from classes, but man am I sad that I have to leave! I will miss the city and my friends and having my own space! I have to go downtown one more time before I leave, I need to stock up on things that I can't get back at my parents' house, like crawfish (canned of course) and some decent iced tea. Plus I have to do things like go to Roadkill one more time, and get coffee and beignets...I can't go on, it will make me sad! But I know I will be back home in August, and I should enjoy the time I have here while I am still here now. (Comment on this)

4:34 pm	rain is fun It was a very rainy day today, I got to wake up late and run to my psych class (my only one today since my morning classes were cancelled) through the warm rain. Unfortunately Greek Day got rained out today, but I at least got to hang out w/ my sisters before. Leslie and I are going to try to get into the same Italian 2 class next semester. I made two of Stefanie's present already, Leslie and I are buying the suppiles for another one tomorrow after Founders Day brunch, and Ashley will give me the other two that I need. I told Lindsey point-blank that I was not going w/ Frank to formal and that I wanted nothing to do w/ him, so that will take care of her meddling. Life is good. Now here is this really fun thing I stole from Ron! If you comment... 1. I'll respond with something random I like about you. 2. I'll tell you what song/movie/recipe reminds me of you. 3. I'll name something we should do together. 4. I'll say something that only makes sense to you and me (or just me). 5. I'll tell you my first/clearest memory of you - that I remember. 6. I'll leave you a quote that is somehow appropriate to you. 7. I'll ask you something that I've always wondered about you. 8. If I do this for you, you must post this on your journal so you can do the same for other people. (4 Comments |Comment on this)

7:47 pm	a load off my mind HA! I have solved all my own problems in one day! UNO got my transcripts from Loyola, I got all A's and one C+ last semester. I am free to register for the 2nd level of classes on the 24th. Then I got my problems w/ my scholarship straightened out (the people in the bursar's office forgot to switch my scholarship from the apartments to the dorms, they straightened that out so my dad is getting a refund). The apartments are going to open back up again in July and I got the number so my dad can reserve my place. Yay! Best of all, I solved my Frank problem (the twit my sister is trying to set me up w/). When I went to the movies today w/ my guy friend Ed, I asked him to go to formal w/ me as friends. It will be a lot less stressful and I don't have to make up a lie for Lindsey. I believe in honesty whenever possible. Now I have a friend to go with and Frank out of my face. Life is good when I have some control over it! (Comment on this)

8:58 pm	coming soon to all my friends: my new phone number! Yeah, so I am getting a new phone number sometime soon. Two reasons: one, I need a 504 area code so that everyone here isn't calling me long-distance, and they are mostly who calls me. Two, and the most pressing reason I'm getting a new number soon, I am being stalked. His name is Rodrigo and I stupidly gave him my number after talking to him for like 2 minutes on the dorm stairs Monday. Ever since he has been sending me obscene text messages and calling me at all hours, even when I am trying to sleep or when I repeatedly hang up on him he keeps calling. I learned my lesson and will never give my number to anyone unless they know me well first. If he tries anything like that again, I will call some authorities that can deal w/ him. He is not a gentleman at all and not someone I want in my life. Why can't I seem to attract normal boys? My sorority sis Lindsey is trying to set me up w/ one of her friends, I met him at her birthday party and he keeps talking to her about me. He's a nice guy, I just don't like him like that, you know? He's a computer science major and she wants me to go to formal with him. I don't want to. The guy is a machine, he thinks only w/ his head and not enough w/ his heart. The girls will understand what I'm talking about, maybe some of the guys too, but definitely the girls, I don't think guys think about this much: when I always imagine my wedding, it's NOT with a guy like him. I can't imagine waking up next to him, or living with him, or having children with him. My future does not include him. Maybe I am uptight, but I have realized I don't much like dating "just for fun". I'd much rather focus on dating people that I want the relationship to turn into something. Maybe I will have fewer dates, but that just makes me happier. I'll keep on being the eternal optimist, I know that I will find a good guy sometime. (3 Comments |Comment on this)

11:17 pm	happy funtime Today was good. I had too much fun using the stove and microwave and now I have made enough stuff that I am half sick off of it all. I tried to visit my buddy at Dreamland today. Either they hired a bunch of new guys or the ones that I know just aren't working today, cause there was no "Hi Sarah, you're back!" Sad that I missed him. They didn't have anything I wanted in stock really either. Oh well I will be back in a month, classes end on the 5th of May and finals are the week after, but my apartment won't be ready until July, so like it or not I will have to be here from mid-May until the apartments open. Eh, it's only a month or so, maybe a month and a half, two tops. Beats the crud out of 5! Today I saw Barb for the first time since the hurricane. It was great catching up on old times, we decorated Easter eggs, my dad nearly fainted when I brought home a carton of about 20 more Easter eggs! Good thing my mom is planning to make devilled eggs for lunch tomorrow. After that, Barb and I watched that treasured movie of my childhood, Teen Witch. Then I tried to burn her the CD with the songs on it but my stupid disc drive cancelled that burn, damn piece of shit, the computer guy claimed nothing was wrong with my disc drive, as if, I thought it was the CD but it wasn't since it didn't work w/ her CD's either, but I kept the mixes on my i-tunes, I can make them later when I get the computer fixed. Then we played some of our favorite games, then I had to go home. It was fun. Tomorrow is Easter, family time, then at 8 I'm getting back on the plane to Louisiana. It was a nice visit, but it's time to go back home. (Comment on this)

4:34 pm	swamped :P I totally have too many things to do and not enough time to do them. I have to get to Jo-Ann's somehow to pick up craft stuff for Big Sis Appreciation. I just called up Jessica and she doesn't know where the Jo-Ann's on Vets is, so I guess I will call Courtney and see if she knows, otherwise I will have to go to the one here and I am running out of time today to do that. I am going to Barb's house tomorrow and I am pretty sure it will be closed on Easter. AUGH! Crud. I have another week to find it, but it's finding the ride that is the tough part. Today I went shopping at Hawthorne for the first time in months. I am totally surprised to see how much has changed. Rock America is now upstairs. Suncoast is closed and Sam Goody is closing. And the worst news of all, the Hawthorne Libby Lu, where I used to work, is also closing. I stepped in to see my old co-workers today. I hardly recognized the place. Everything was thrown around everywhere, I am very glad I got the stuff I wanted while I still worked there. They got all-new hairstyles, a lot less complicated than the ones I had to learn. It was very sad to have to say goodbye to all of it. I am looking forward to seeing Barb tomorrow. I missed her as much as I did my family. (Comment on this)

3:13 pm	so many things to do, none of them I want to I am procrastinating. OK, I am procrastinating and also anxiously anticipating my sister Leslie's Prisoner of Fire fanfic she just wrote and is going to e-mail to me. I have too many things to do. I have to pack my clothes and such to take on the plane ride back to my parents tomorrow. I'm not. I will probably stay up late doing it b/c I will get distracted by Neo, or Shawntiyah will IM me with another litany of concerns about her puppy like I'm the Dear Abby of puppy stuff, hell she is the one who works at Petsmart! Or Leslie or Gigi or Michelle will IM me. I still have to call Courtney about my ride to the airport, I have to put my suitcase in her car tonight, so I should really get that packed now. Then I have to get up early for math and I will have to take my after-math-class nap on the plane, which won't work out too good, I couldn't even sleep on the flight to London and that was like 8 hours. I can't sleep on planes. Buses and cars aren't a problem, but planes are. Should I skip math tomorrow? I skipped Biology, I overslept b/c I didn't set the alarm on my phone. It would make my life easier. I have to wake up early either way, the plane leaves at 11:30. It's still open for debate. I have a test in math next week, so maybe I should go. (Comment on this)

1:57 pm	I love parties! Let me just say this: AZD's throw the best parties in the WORLD! Even if it's not technically an AZD event, they throw pretty good birthday parties too. Last night my big sis Stefanie and I met the rest of the sisters at Sarah B.'s house, then we went to Bourbon Street and partied our asses off! We went bar-hopping through a couple different places, we went first to BBC (Bourbon Street Blues Company), which is an awesome club and you only need to be 19 to get in (the reason it's not 18 is that some 18-year-olds are still in HS, with 19 you know they are at least college students). They had this awesome band playing covers of classic rock songs. They told us to scream after like every song so my voice is pretty hoarse right now. Stefanie and I did shots of Goldschlager (sp?) which isn't bad, it's kind of spicy and has flecks of actual gold in it, which is pretty cool. Then I bought Leslie and myself Sex on the Beach, which is really good, it tastes like a big gummy bear. After BBC we went to Bourbon Cowboy, which has (get this) A MECHANICAL BULL!!!! How cool is that? I wanted to ride it but I had already had two drinks and two shots and I had a feeling riding the bull would make me queasy, plus I was wearing a miniskirt (the little dusty-rose-pink one I got from Charlotte Russe when they were having a sale on them, with my tan asymmetrical shirt I got from Sirena's in Canada, and the sparkly pink stiletto heels I wore to Turnabout junior year). I need to go back there when I haven't had anything to drink yet and am wearing jeans so I can ride that bull! I've never ridden a mechanical bull before, that is definitely something I need to do. This one girl stayed on for like 5 minutes, she was really good at it, most of the people fell off in a few seconds! We left Bourbon Cowboy and then tried to get into Razzoo's, everyone could get in excpet Marcela b/c she didn't have a US lisence, so we all left Razzoo's and went back to BBC where we knew everyone could get in. I capped off the night with a Smirnoff Ice (which is technically beer, so I guess I am still OK). Lindsey and Sarah B. got to go up on stage in their tiaras and birthday girl sashes (they even had similar black dresses, I wonder if they planned that) and sing. It was awesome. By this point I realized that stiletto heels and walking up and down Bourbon Street all night is a VERY bad combination. So Stefanie and Christine and I went back home at around 4 AM. That was definitely the most awesome party I have ever been to. EVER! (2 Comments |Comment on this)

3:06 pm	good news bad news day You Are Miss Piggy A total princess and diva, you're totally in charge - even if people don't know it. You want to be loved, adored, and worshiped. And you won't settle for anything less. You're going to be a total star, and you won't let any of the "little people" get in your way. Just remember, piggy, never eat more than you can lift! The Muppet Personality Test I needed something to cheer me up and this ^ is the shit! Last night I went out for margaritas with the girls. Well, there were two guys there, Beav the fireman and Roy, Grace's fiance. Roy is the nicest guy, we had a conversation about comic books and why the movies were never as good as the comics but the TV series came closer. He was very nice, Grace definitely found herself a keeper! Then today after my Thursday after-math-class nap, I went to see my advisor, but she wasn't in so I have to see her tomorrow. I need to talk to her, b/c I found out today from the fashion guy that they aren't offering the fashion design classes this semester. I was so totally crushed! I called my mama and she's like well you can do a summer at one of their sister schools, like Cal State Fullerton and I'm like there is no way I am going to Cal State Fullerton! If they are cutting the fashion for good, I might have to do a summer at Tulane or Lafayette or LSU (who I am totally sad that they lost to those bastards UCLA!) or even to Ole Miss or U of Houston. I don't want to leave UNO, but if I have to I am holding out to a summer at Lafayette. Why? Three words: HOT CAJUN GUYS! Maybe this won't be a total loss...hahaha jk. Tomorrow I have Sarah B. and Lindsey's awesome b-day party tomorrow. It's going to be sweet...and I need a little bit of cheerind up still. (Comment on this)

12:53 pm	yay for me! I got my lab midterm back and I got the only A in it in any of the Biology labs! YAY!!! I thought I did badly on it, but I guess not! That means I got an A on all my midterms...except Biology. I haven't gotten that one back, and I'm not sure I want to see it. It was so hard, I guessed about 30% of it. But still I can't complain, I did awesome on all the others! I'm going to do some study hours with my sisters in the school library to catch up on my reading for psychology. Studying is always more fun with friends (even if it is not too productive, right Barb?). Friday I am going to two of my sisters' joint b-day party, we rented limos and are going to cruise around downtown and go to bars and party! It is going to be freakin sweet! If they still have the top floor of the Wyndham that would be even cooler, I hope they like the presents I got for them. I am just sad that I can't go to the clean-up of the city for SAC, it is on the same day but in the morning and I would be able to go if I didn't also have class! Damn class, oh well, such is a busy life! I am actually excited to come visit my parents next week. It's not that I'm trying to escape my life here, but I haven't seen my family in months and I miss them. It's going to be fun! (Comment on this)

3:03 pm	joy! Today was a very good day. It is sunny and nice and gorgeous, walking to class was actually enjoyable! I might actually walk to Subway to get dinner instead of relying on chocolate pudding and teddy grahams! That is the only thing that really stinks about not having a fridge and a microwave, I can't make my own food or get a cold drink when I get back from class..at least I have water, I bought Evian yesterday instead of relying the Dasani they sell at the convenience store in the UC. It's worth it though, I am still having fun. I had an AZD meeting at Sarah B.'s house, next week it will be at Leslie's house, and she is going to teach me html to make my Neo petpages cool like hers (check it out Barb, neomail me for her username). Since my roommate is gone, I can invite people over for a slumber party. Leslie and I should hang out more. we IM each other all the time, and Shawntiyah says she can hang with us when she comes back next semester. It's gonna be fun! Yay! (Comment on this)
