snowboardingg

next semester my friend elissa and I are taking snowboarding for a credit. im so pumpedd! its only $275 for rentals, lift tickets, and tickets for 6 weeks. and the money is billed to bursar so its not like its money out of my pocket. then im excited because for christmas im getting a snowboarding jacket and pants that i picked out. but i have to wait alll the way til christmas to get it! its not like its that far away but still i wanna wear it =] my mom said thats my "big" gift because it was expensive, i sound greedy, but im in need of clothes. oh well gotta give up something.
i might work at the ski mountain over break, and i really hope i do because then ill get a free pass so my friends said theyll teach me before i look liek a fool for when i start next semester. i wanna know at least a little something before i start!

so yeah im pumped to learn something new, hopefully ill stick to it because thatd be awesome because i like watching it so itd be cool doing it too =]

things to do over break

there are so many things i want to do over break, that i doubt any of them will happen. so its easier to write out everything i want to do rather than just think about so here they are..



first, i want to make money. i have my job at the mall at wet seal, but theres so many workers that i dont know how many hours i'll get. then im handing in papers at the ski mountain to be a housekeeper! hahah but its $10.50 an hour and i'll get hours and free snowboarding pass so i think its worth it. the only downside is its mandatory to work on holidays =/ i'll have to suck it up i guess. hopefully these two jobs can work out and i make as much as i can!



second, i want to visit my bffs! my friend mallory's roommate lives in rochester and she promised to visit her. so i told her i'd go too so i can see my friends. then dan would come along with us because he's on the way so we'd pick him up. the only problem would be getting the money for gas to travel 5 hours upstate and getting our rents to let us use a reliable car. this would be awesome because id be seeing all my best friends in one shot. nick tony and dan, then the other guys and they want me to visit their friends so it would be alot of fun. we just need to find days we can all go so hopefully that works out!

third, a weekend trip to the adirondacks. my bff jillian is talking to alot to lee, who im pretty close to. he mentioned his cabin he has that he wants all of us to go to and we would snowmobile, snowboard, have it to ourselves, and theres a hot tub! how sweeeet would that be, with all our closest friends from home. so the only problem would be getting off work, but it would be worth it!! =]

thats the 3 main things i really wanna do over break, so ill stick to getting them done then think about other activites =]

australiaaa!

next fall im seriously thinking about going to australia with my bff jillian. i was going to get a house with some girls on my team, but two of them bailed then the other two are still looking. i just dont feel like dealing with still looking around for houses and what not. then its always been my dream to study abroad and go to australia. my best friend has the time to because shes a year ahead of where she should be now so i definitely want to go with her. just the whole cost thing will be an issue. ive gone so broke this semester, so im gonna work hard over winter break and next semester and see if my parents will help me out and ill pay them back. we would leave mid july so i cant work much before we left. then we'd get back midnovember. we're gonna look over winter break on where to go and apply and see what our parents think. this would be the greatest thing everrrr. ive always thought i'd never go because my boyfriend would hate it, but we broke up, after 3yrs.. so of course i want to take the opportunity when its there before anything happens in the future again with him. ya never know what could happen! so maybe after i get back from australia things will change and we'll see what happens with him=]


ahh i really really hope i can gooo!!

grades

im getting so anxious to find out my final grades. this morning i found out two grades for classes and was pumped they were so good. i was suprised the teachers posted them so quickly but its because the semester isnt over. for the classes i dont have finals in, i keep checking if the teacher posted grades yet but im sure most wait til last minute to get everyone finished with. my last day of finals is thursday so im sure i wont get all my grades til at least tuesday or wednesday which cant get here soon enough! hopefully i do good this semester because next semester i chose some pretty rough classes so ill need to keep my gpa up somehow.
the greatest part of finding out you got good grades is telling your parents. i already called my mom and dad as soon as i found out i got an A in my management class. i really thought id get like a B- so when i saw an A i was so incredibly happy, then hearing my parents be excited is awesome. i'm 19 and in college, yet my mom still buys me stuff for doing good, i love it =] i hate getting older so when she gives me rewards i feeel so young again haha! =]

hope everyone else gets good gradesss!

facebook

im pretty sure if there wasnt facebook, or myspace.. then i wouldnt be distracted all the time doing my school work. you go on to check one thing, and next thing you know your on there for an hour!! i know its my fault for going on it in the first place, but its just so distracting. ive gone on my computer to do homework and automatically checked facebook first, its horrible.
nowadays parents are getting facebooks!! i cant stand when my mom finds something out then says she heard someone saw on facebook. im pretty sure everything on my page i put on private..but somehow people find ways around it! then i have parents asking to be my friend, do they honestly think ill accept!!? my moms friend at work asks her everyday why i didnt accept her as a friend my mom was like she doesnt want you to see her stuff! so at least my mom understands where im coming from.. thank god.
then i hate how future jobs look at your facebook to see what kind of person you are. i feel like these things let us be who we are, and if theres pictures of drinking.. then who cares at least we're being responsible. i dont think it should all be held against us. but thats just my opinion... anyone else have thoughts about this?

wisdom teeth

so as much as i'm excited to go home, the monday we get back (15th) i have to get my wisdom teeth out =[ im so scaredd! everyone talks about it and how it kills afterwards, im so not looking forward to this. my mom wanted me to get one done at a time, but i feel like ill go through more pain going back 4 times so im just getting all 4 out when i go. the pills afterwards better help the pain or else ill be so mad. i wont mind being put to sleep and all that, i just heard the pain after is the worst ever. im petrified of the dentist, so its just not looking good. looking at the positive side, it gives me an excuse to lay around all day in my bed and be lazy =] my friends will be home also, so they could always come and hang out but i wont be in the best of moods for them. then my sister was telling me how she hates the gauze pads that you have to keep in your mouth because they make you gag. hopefully i dont feel the same way she does and ill be able to tolerate them. ahh im just so nervous i really dont want to get it donee! then i keep thinking about the movie "awake" and how he is getting surgery and was never put to sleep and feels everything being done. if i wake up while they are still pulling teeth out, im going to freak out! i cant deal with the pain in my mouth, i can handle a broken bone, cuts, bruises, just not dental work!! ah mann one week! =[

summer heights high

since i just talked about monday nights i was thinking of another show on hbo, and if you like comedy and dont mind cursing, youve got to watch summer heights high. im so mad i missed it tonight because me and britt forgot it was sunday, and we've been in the library since 630, and the show was on at 1030. its the most random stuff youll hear and see. i dont know how people think of shows like this, but its hysterical. its about a guy who plays 3 different characters, one he is jonas, a student in like 9th grade, another a girl in like 11th grade, then he is a teacher at an elementary school. each character has the funniest voices which makes it that much better. the show started in australia and was a huge hit, so they thought to bring it here. its still new so i think people will enjoy it and start watching it more soon enough. to get a look and see what its about.. go to www.hbo.com/summerheightshigh.

check it outtt! =]

monday night shows

its sad how many girls, mostly girls id hope, look forward to watching tv shows. and when theres a break for a month or a wait til the next season, everyone gets all upset! whaaat has our lives come to!!!? i cant wait for gossip girl tomorrow night, its going to be so so so so good =] i feel like its gonna be the last one for like another month, and ill be so pissed. they already have us waiting til january 5th for one tree hill to come back, after leaving it with suspenseee..it was finally a good episode after a few weeks being down the drain. i hate when they waste episodes by not making it exciting enough. gossip girl on the other hand hasnt let me down lately. every episode has had good drama and suprising things happen, and they keep it going and make us wait to see what happens. tomorrow night we find out if someone dies, and i really really think they do, i hope im right cuz i predicted everything that will happen and it will be awesome to see i knew it would happen. then the hillls is on, but ihavent kept up with that show lately.. the episodes are so short its annoying. they drag them out and it just becomes lame.

so yeah, cant wait til tomorrow nighttt! it will be a nice break from studying to watch gossip girlll! =]

christmasss

i love love love love lovee the christmas timeee! its so exciting and fulll of happinesss =] i hate how i cant be home right now helping my mom with decorations and all that fun stuff. hopefully we dont get a tree til i get home this week, im sure theyll wait, i hope. then all the christmas movies that are on! i think i watch elf every single time it comes on tv, i never get sick of it. the 25 days of xmas on family channel is always the best, except the other night the movie cars was on.. whattt does that have to do with christmas!!
i just love how theres so much christmas spirit haha as corny as that sounds. but like everyonee gets excited so its awesome. with all the lights on hosues, i could drive around all night looking at them. ahh i cant wait to go home now! my mom will have tons and tonss of cookies made, and alll the decorations are up already. my mom has enough decorations for me and my sisters to split when we're older and it will fill up our whole house. i think she has like 30 boxes! shes nuts. but its awesome. =] i dont wanna talk more about christmas cuz then ill get too excited so thats ittt!

finals

everyone i talk to, their finals are like over by wednesday or something early. my only finals are on thursday, only two of them which is pretty lucky, but still that late, and the same day!? it sucks even more cuz the second one is at 545 so ive been debating on going home that night or waiting til the morning. im leaving that decision up to my daddyyy! its a pain though knowing my finals are far away because for example everyyyone is studying and im like eh mine are thursday. it sucks! im trying hard though to force myself to go to the library and do work but i have the worst attention span. speaking of, its funny how many people talk about adderall at this time of year. its sad to see that nooo one can sit down and study without it. whattt has college come to!? like to stress us out that bad and take stuff to help us sit and focus. its nuts. but whatever works i guess.
i hate cumulative finals also by the way. like we have enough crap going on with school, teachers just love to see us suffer. way too much information at one time for my liking.

good luck everyone on your finallsss! =]

friendsss

after leaving last semester, i thought it would be hard to jump right into things and start all over again with meeting people. i kept in touch with everyone from last fall that i met, but being home for a semester i thought like everyone i talked to would drift apart. the few that i did talk to alot when i was home and all summer, ended up being the greatest friends to this day. the saying is definitely true about no matter how far away or how long its been, your real friends will always be there. so yeah, i just wanna talk a bit about my one bff who stayed by my side=]
one person i kept in touch with was tony. last fall we started talking more and more but never really became extremely close. then when i was home, we talked all the time, and were there for eachother through everything. i love the fact that distance brought us closer. we couldnt wait til i came back this fall and could finally see eachother after so long. then this semester he found out he had a tumor in his neck and was getting it out over thanksgiving break. i was so nervous about it all, i couldnt even imagine how he was. he left a few days early before break because he was geting it done in florida so we talked before and right after it was done. it was so scary waiting to hear how he was! hes such a positive person though, and extremely strong, that i knew he would be okay. i finallyy got the text saying " im alive haha " .. like who do you know would ever be that ok with what was going on!! he said he was in so much pain, yet he was like ah i cant wait to go running. crazyyy person!!! but im happy hes back to himself and the tumor is finally gone so theres no more worrying. it was right above his adams apple.. what a horrible spot. the pictures and the scar alone, you can tell it hurts alottt. but once again, hes the toughest person i know and still doesnt complain about the pain. so yeah. thats my best friend tony =] hes my favvv and its great knowing hes been there for me even when i didnt come to school here and i know he'll always be there. love you t! <3

back from break

on sunday i couldnt wait to get back to cortland. it figures that the day we come back, the weather decided to be crappy as hell. there was rain sleet snow slush, making the ride take forever. i felt bad for the long island kids, every long island person i talked to it took them 11 hours to get here! thats half way to freakin floridaaa!! i could never sit in the car for that long just to come back to school. but i guess people should figure out that everyone and their mom is going to be driving back from somewhere after thanksgiving weekend. so people from long island.. you should of left at like 8am haha. it only takes us 2 and ahalf hours to get here, that weekend it took like over 3 and i was pissed.. i could only imagine some people. the only thing that sucks is we came back for two weeks and we're back home.. once again, for long island kids, it just sucks! i would hate to be a parent having to drive back n forth to get them. i guess the timing this year just didnt work out because i dont remember it only being 2 weeks til break again. oh welll, at least we came back to not thattt much work to do and just studying! =]

turkey break

i just realized november went so fast. after cortaca weekend we had one weekend then thanksgiving break. november came and went! i was excited to go home for break because i didnt for like over a month. i was supposed to go home tuesday with my friend from home, but she ended up going to visit her bf at esu so it left me with my mom getting me monday night. that wasnt too bad because i got an extra day at home, but it sucked cuz i planned on handed work in at my classes tuesday morning so i had to email everything, i felt bad.
so onto break.. i had a blast at home. usually its boring as hell because we live in such a small town that nothing ever goes on. but all the college kids were home, so it was awesome seeing everyone.. and suprisingly there was something to do every night. my friend taylor at home hates being bored, and so do i.. so we made it our goal to find stuff to do. then i worked wednesday friday and saturday at my job at wet seal at our mall. it was great seeing everyone, they were excited so have the college workers back. and the shifts went so fast because all the sales going on, it was non stop busy. i thought it was going to be horrible working on black friday, but i loved it haha. all the customers were nice for once, because our sales were awesome, and they had sympathy for us working on such a busy day. it was nice making some extra money for the little time being home.
then thanksgiving day was fun tooo. we never have alllll the family over, usually one side does their own thing with their other side of their families, so it leaves us with just my aunt uncle and little cousin. but this year everyone was over and i had alot of fun with my older cousins. we caught up about everything and joked around with the adults the whole time. i hate thanksgiving dinner, i only eat the turkey. i hate being such a picky eater, but honestly.. some of the food is just nasty.
even though we were gone for like 5 days, i couldnt wait to come back to cortland! thats so sad. im going to go through serious withdrawal over winter break!

cortacaaa

After deer and beer weekend, came Cortaca weekend.. ahh so exciting. I was pretty mad when i had to sign up to do hours for my major. Im sports management and we need 40 hours of events. So it was winding down and there wasnt too many events to sign up for so i had to sign up to work friday night and at the football game saturday. i was only mad because my friends were coming so while they were all starting early friday night, i was working at the hockey game til like 9. but i realized it wasnt too bad becuase i just met up with them afterwards and didnt have to wait around to see what was going on. then saturday morning was cortaca dayyy! i love how everyone is like "oh im getting up at 9am and drinking!" then half the kids dont end up doing it cuz they are so hungover hahah makes me laugh every time. but i had to be at the game by 11, then it was amusing seeing drunk crazy kids screaming and starting fights. it only sucked being in the rain for 4 hours but it got my hours out of the way for class. i wish cortland won to see how crazy it would of gotten, hopefully next year we'll get em!
so yeah.. overall it was a great weekend hanging out with my best friend and other people who came to visit. my bff never came to cortland before and she loved it so much. so im glad she wants to come back again. =]

november

i cant really say i was looking forward to the month of november, considering snow would be coming. i dont know why i go to an upstate school since i hate the snow. it hasnt been bad at alllll here this year, really suprising. we got a few snow showers but nothing major. i feel like we've gotten more rain then snow recently. our last rugby tournament was deer and beer. that was a blastttt. we played all day in mud and rain. thank god the rain stopped for awhile during the day and picked up when we were ending the tourney. we made it to the championship game and lost vs albany in the final. they were the nastiest players you could ever watch. most of the time girls dont get THAT rough, but this team was throwing punches like it was their job. we didnt even shake hands with them at the end. its usually disrespectful but honestly, this team was sooo bad. then they ended up going to woodys after, just a few of them.. so they could collect there trophy. we didnt start anything, i was suprised haha. but it was one hell of a dayy. starting at 9am playing til 4, then to woodys right after. they had amazingggg venison to eat and i barely eat deer. but i ilked it alottt! k gotta go tanning, back to writing later =]

behind.

blogs are due like tomorrow i think? or maybe the end of next week.. and im pretty sure i'm like 19 down. so im just gonna write about random days, adventures, break, the end of the semester and so on.

lets see where to start.. i guess like the beginning of november. i ended with scrimmaging ithaca, that went well it was alotta fun but just about everyoneee was hungover from halloween night. but we didnt take it too serious. we ended up beating them, and they are division 1! so we were really happy. =] halloween weekend was a good time. friends from home came to visit and had a blast. it was the last visit my boyfriend made..upsetting. moving on... im glad my friends had a good time because when some people visit, they expect you to keep them busy like 24/7 but they dont realize, theres nothing to do during the day! its usually everyones relaxing time on weekends so im glad the group that came wanted to relax too. thats good enough for this blog. on to the nexttt!

the rest of the season

so our last rugby game was oct 4th and i havent practiced since!! we have a scrimmage against ithaca this saturday and are practicing this week. im gonna be so out of shape! right now we're watiting to hear if we still have practice because its so nasty out. i really dont want to practice in snow. but it may be fun to play in mud haha so i guess we'll see soon! then our last week is next week. we have a tournament in homer next saturday the 8th. its called deer and beer, hopefully will be a blast. i bet we have like a foot of snow by then! im pretty pumped though to play in it because it has to be nuts to play in snow. i guses we'll see today how fun it is if practice stays on.

its awesome because the next 3 weekends will be a blast. this weekend is halloween and our scrimmage ( we're playing in costumes), next weekend is the tournament , then the weekend after is cortacaaa! which will be awesomeee. theres so many kids from my town coming up, i dont know where they think theyre staying but whatever its their problem! k i gotta go to classs ! peacee kidss.

snow!

i cant believe its snowing already!! like i know we're upstate but its just nuts. i wish it would stick so classes got cancelled tomorrow haha that would be niceee. my sister just said its snowing by us, which is two and a half hours down from here so it must get bad here soon. i dont mind the snow too much, its the best to just lay around all day inside :) but we cant do that. i hate having to walk to class and freeeze all the waythere then get inside and start sweatingg. so i guess we'll see how long this lasts for. pray for the 6 inches we're supposed to get and no classes!! =]

sooo behind.

writing in this blog is the last thing on my mind during the week. its not even hard to do i just cant remember to ever do it. so to think of the past few weeks..

october break passed, it was homecoming at my high school so all the college kids go home for it. that was fun to see everyone and all my teachers. but home gets so boring. i even have a boyfriend there but if he wasnt there, i would definitely not bother to visit home. thenn im trying to think of the weekends after that, but i cant remember. i went home two weeks ago, just to get a consultation with teh oral surgeon for my wisdom teeth. such a waste. and all they said was you can come back over your winter break to get them out. i hate dentists!
i have so many posts to do so im just gonna make them short so thats it for now =]

homeee!

i finallyy got to go home this weekend. i thought i could make it til fall break, but i was just in the mood to go home and relax. my mom and sister came up saturdya morning for my rugby game, which we ended up losing 10-7. my mom barely watched the game because she hates how intense it is. so after the game i drove home with them. i was so excited on the way back to actually see everyone and actually enjoy being in my boring town.
we got back around 530, and i was mad because my boyfriend was at his mom's house til like 7 so it sucked not being able to see him right away. but when i walked in the house my dog was soo excited to see me, he didnt know what to do with himself. after that we got some chinese food, i was craving it because i hate the chinese in cortland. then my older sister came over and we talked and caught up for a bit. finally my boyfriend came over and i was wayy excited. its been 3 weeks, we're pathetic when it comes to long distance. i mean 3 weeks isnt toooo bad, but it seems liek forever.
we could of went out saturday night, but i really wasnt in the mood to do anything but lay around. so we watched movies and just hung out. i layed around with his dog, xena. i loveeee her. i like her more than my dog haha thats mean. thenn i got to go to sleep in my bed, which i loved. i really dont mind my bed here at school, but everyone loves their own bed at home. sunday morning came fast. me, my mom and my dad went to the deli and got breakfast. my parents do that every sunday before my dad leaves for work. so i made sure i woke up early to go with them becuase my dad is barely ever around. then the rest of the day was just watching foootball, eating homecooked meals, and then i went to the movies with jeremy and saw my best friends girl. i thought it was hilarious because i love dane cook.
then i made my way back tocortland monday afternoon. i dont have classes monday til 425 so its sweet. jeremy and my friend taylor drove up with me, so they can drive my car back. to end such a relaxing and fun weekend iwth my family, i got a freakin ticket on the way back up here. i was so mad. but it was my fault.. i just wanted to be backhere already and after 2 hours of driving, my head wasnt all into driving. i was going 84 in a 65. it was actually more than that, but the cop wrote me a ticket for 84, i wont say the real speed cuz its just embarassing and it taught me to actually pay attention to driving. ha. so yeahhh. now im back at school and cant wait to go back home for fall break! :)

procastinating.

i reallllyy cannot get into doing work this year. its bad. i have time to do my homework, but when i do i just want to relax and when i sit down, then im down for good. im hoping its because its sort of still the beginning, but we're 4 weeks into this semester so i need to give up on that.
right now i should be doing chapter 4 for cpn and printing out things about my research topic but im not in the mood to read right now. and im sitting in the common room so i cant print out anything from where i am. i sound liek a complete bum right now haha. oh welllll, probably because i am.
i guess i could talk about the flag football game i went to tonight. since i decided to procastinate earlier too, i went to my friends game. its always fun to watch guys get so serious about an intramural game, but i know, all guys are like that. they signed up for highly competitive and the team they played meant to sign up for rec. so it was a complete blowout. my guy friends had it so easy for their first game. i actually felt bad for the other team because they were new at it and were trying hard. towards the end they started to laugh it off so i felt a little better. so yeah my chicos ended up winning 28-12 because they like gave up at the end. while other teams were starting to show up, one guy had the cutesttt dog. he let us hold it and it sat on my lap :) it was a pitbull with mixed colors in it. it made me miss my dog and i cant waitttt to go home saturday to see it! k i guess i'll start my work nowww :(

food

so im already really sick of the food here. everyday it takes me forever to decide what i want to eat. last night thank god we went to the rugby house and we made spaghetti and meatballs, i was in heaven. i think ive eaten subway a million times already, dragon im just never in the mood to go to, hilltop is soo far away, and raquette is open for dinner. so mainly i live on ice cream and subway and thats just not a good diet to be on! thank god i dont gain weight easily or else i'd be huge. im obsessed with ice cream, my mom yells at me on the phone like every night to tell me not to eat it but i usually already have. my freezer has to go cups in there, and after practice we usually head over there so i cant turn it down!
anyway, my mom is coming up for my game on saturday and i might go back with her just so ican get some homecooked meals. my boyfriend offered to drive me back monday because i only have class at 425. so why not take the offer? so yeah, im pumped and now im looking forward to going home :) its only been like 4 weeks, im not homesick but it will be veryyy nicee!

decisions, decisions.

i dont think ive ever been so undecided before. i really really hate how we have to sign leases now for a house next year. like what if something happens before the year ends, now we're stuck with the people for a whole another year. then i dont know whats easier, living off campus or just staying in the dorm for junior year. i mean the dorm is close to everything, but a house? who wouldnt love to have your own space, and do what you want. the only thing im worried about is having to actually be responsible and do things on my own which i dont know if im ready for.
i have three options which is the sucky part. first, i can get a quad for 3 girls im friends with. second, me and one friend, who i would be in the quad with , couuld live in the rugby house on tompkins. third, i can live with my suitemates now on groton. i have NO idea what i want, at all. so if anyone lives off campus now, give me some thoughts and ideas.. do you like it? is it easier than in a dorm?

rugby

on saturday we had our first scrimmage, and i finally understand the game now. i never thought you actually had to play the game to know how it is, i couldnt understand why they couldnt just teach us it. so the people who have played last year started, and all the rookies played the second half. suprisingly, we werent that bad. we caught on very quickly and played the ball well.

before the game, we were stretching and they said make sure you stretch your neck out and stretch everything really good. and wow did that barely help, i cant explain how sore i was the next day. during the game, i didnt think i got hurt that bad or would be that sore.. i noticed some bruises on my legs after though. but you dont notice anything til the next day. i didnt even want to get out of bed it was so bad. my neck felt like he had 15 knots in it, my back had knots and my legs were just so sore. the whole day i layed around in my room hoping it would just go away after taking some motrin. it got better as the day went on.

after playing in a game, i feel great playing the sport. barely anyone knows what its about or has seen a game. its cool doing somethign different than everyone else even though its as intense as it is. im most excited because my mom and sisters are coming up next weekend for our home game and ihavent seen anyone from home in awhileee! so i cant wait :)

september 20th- first home gameee!! :)

nightclerking

while at cortland, i nightclerk in cheney hall. i requested it because i lived there last year and the people were awesome but now i wish i wasn't working in there. i live in smith and the walk sucksss. one night the rhd walked me back because its scary by myself but that was only one time... so i've walked it a few times by myself and i really just dont like it. im not scared of the dark but i feel like i hear every little noise around me and i hate it. on the weekends its not bad because we have people to walk back with and talk to.
so yeah, i really dont know if i want to keep working there anymore. another thing is, i heard i only had to do two weekend nights out of the month. it turns out i have to work like 3 saturdays, a thursday and a friday night. how much does that suck!! ugh its so annoying. like its not bad every now and then to stay in a weekend night but im on the rugby team so after a game its just not fun having to work and being so tired. i'll give it this weekend and see where else i can work during the days because i do want extra cash, just a better job! if anyone knows any hookups, let me know!! :)

the hike.

I'd have to say, I'm always bored during the day at cortland, on the weekends. There's no town to walk around or shop in any stores. And if you don't have a car, there's not much to do then. But this weekend was actually fun and busy.

First, on friday, friends from home came up and it's only been a week since we've been here but its always cool to see people from home. So of course we went out friday night, had our fun. And that night my boyfriend said he was going to come visit saturday so i got really excited. It was awesome seeing him but it sucked because he only stayed til sunday afternoon, and saturday night i had to nightclerk and i didn't have enough time to take off considering he told me the night before. But he hung out anyway with the other people who came to visit then hung out with me a bit at work, how nice of him :). Then on sunday they alll went home and I was thinking now its back to being bored. Then my phone rang and a few of us went to teh Syracuse Mall just to waste some time being on campus. It wasn't much but it was something to do, and it was alot better than being stuck in the room or sleeping all day.

Then today, we had the day off for labor day and i planned on catching up on sleep and relaxing but instead I went to ithaca for cliff jumping. My friend nick asked me to go with him and some rugby guys and i love to go off cliffs so i was excited. On the way there, we got a lost a million times, taking wrong turns, not finding roads, but eventually we got there. We wanted to go to the illegal cliffs, hopefully i'm allowed to say that on here but no one had the exact directions for them. We just ended up at the state park, and we got there to hear them say, all the swimming areas were closed because there were no lifeguards. How much does that suck to hear! So we checked out another park, and a guy gave us a little hint saying we could walk around and go in the water and just not get caught. So thats what we did. It ended up being a freaking hike and a half all over the state park and we didn't even go in any water, or jump any cliffs! What i got myself into today, and all i wanted to do was relax. Oh well though, like i said, anything really is better than staying the dorm all day.. and it was an adventure i guess you can say? I got my workout for the weeek! Hopefully i don't wake up sore tomorrow :)

first blog :)

I'm not a fan of just writing whatever pops in my head, so I guess I'll just blurt out whatever. Just so everyone knows, I'm used to aim talk and Word fixing my mistakes, so sorry if all my I's are capitalized, if I put no apostrophes or there's anything else wrong.

So, to explain my story I guess I could start off with. I went to SUNY Cortland in the fall last year with my major being psychology. My semester really didn't start off the greatest, I guess I couldn't get used to the whole college thing at first.. I don't really know but whatever, I went home for the spring. I did go to the community college by me, OCCC, and it's really a joke going there. I felt like if i stayed then my credits wouldnt transfer over to anywhere else and I would be behind. So, I ended up changing my major to sports management and decided to come back to Cortland. I'm glad I made that decision because I met great people here, and this is a great school for my major. It ended up that even the classes I did take at OCCC, they barely mean anything here so it sucks. I did get some GE's out of the way so I guess thats a good thing.

I don't feel like being a complete bum here at school, because if you know me, you'll know im the laziest person ever but somehow don't gain weight for doing nothing and eating everything. So I decided to do club rugby with some friends. It started yesterday, and it will be rough. I'm already sore from practice and we barely did anything. Oh well, its something to get me in shape. It's an intense game, but seems awesome to get to learn how to play. I suggest trying it out at least once. Since I'm a rookie they will be harsh on us, but what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger.

I think thats enough for now, I mean I'm pretty sure I wrote over 300 words like we're supposed to, and like i said , i'm so not a fan of free writing so get used to me blabbing on like this :)
