I realized in reading some former posts that I mentioned "putting the moves on" Jeff. Well I figured a follow up was neded for clarities sake.
I did put the moves on him, ie I held his hand at the movies. We progressed from there, going ou the next weekend...wherein I received my first kiss (and my second for that matter). I like kissing its fun. Anyway, after that date I did some soul searching and found that it just wasn't going o work out between us. SO on Dec. 23 (yeah 2 days beore Christmas) I called him and told him... He was so sad sounding it almost broke my heart. But now we are at that awkward place and he will barely speak to me...not out of anger I don't think but out of selfpreservation. Because, if I face it, I am a natural flirt...when I'm not trying to flirt, when I'm trying I sound like a blathering idiot but yeah. That's how taht worked ou/didn't however one chooses to look at it.

I'm Bubble-y!
What a great day/weekend! They have kinda run together so I am just happy about them both.
Rainbow was amazing!!! To see 2,000 Catholic teens openly expresssing their faith is one of the most beutiful things I think I will witness. And to be a part of it at the same time is just absolutly incredible. I can't express how much it meant to me.
I am bubble-y at work. And I showed dignitude to someone.

Ho Hum
Went to the Auto Show today, that was fun. Nancy and I looked so crazy awesome in or coordinating outfits...thats right, Nancy andicoordinated outfits. We both wore skirts, above the knee woowoo, and pink shirts with white tube socks and sneakers. It was awesome! What was more amazing was when Jay noticed and questioned our "sameness" (def. not a word but yeah I make things up).
On the note of words Nancy and I found tha a dictionary can bevery aenjoyable...Thanks Mrs. Wi___rt. And do you know the difference between a thingamajig and a doohickey? Well I do and so does NAncy so there. We also discovered the meaning of the word welter...If I remember corectly its someone who rolls around in the mud...heehee doesn't that sound fun!? I would love to roll in the mud and not have to worry about what I looked like after 'cause its the most fu when you ahve complete abandonment.
I cried today. I cried because I couldn't pay my speeding ticket in cash and had to go to 7-11 to get a money order... I cried over that! Which made the mascera I almost never wear run, so I looked like a weirdo at 7-11. not my best moment. I was also a bit sad because I found this picture of Matt today. And I have to finally admit o myself tat I still have feelings for him. I saw the picture and I just wanted to hug him and smell him (best smelling guy I have ever met) and just be near to him...It made being alone kida hard, but I got over it.
"You're so skinny; I bet you look funny in a bathing suit!" ~~Cyndi (at random, I swear that is exactly what she said and it was out of nowhere!)
"I'm Switzerland.">Andrea, meanwhile I go into spasms because I say that all the time.

O Happy Day
The light that shineth down from heaven smiled on me today! I skipped and frolicked and forgot that the world watches and judges harshly. I forgot that it was cold out, in fact I glorified in the fact. I felt at home...at peace with myself for the moment. Everything melted away (an odd phrasing since it was snowing) and slid into place. THe pieces fit. I was happy. Grades held no power over me and for once college wasn't looming over my shoulder reminding me that this time is brief. I was there n the moment I smelled the roses and they were lovely.
The snow, as I have mentioned contains such a healing quality for me. I feel safe and protected despite its freezing powers. It is my natural habitat and I feel happy to be able to fiinally accept that as my own.

Hmm...musings
Well, as with so many other thngs in my life my confusion is centered around the opposite sex. Confused because I can' seem to get over Matt. I know in my head that he has nothing to offer me and that he really is just a selfish guy who only thinks about himself and what he needs (if you read this all really fast with no pauses for air that is how it was supposed to sound) and I know that his and my paths don't match but I'm stuck damnit and I can't do anything about it! Its silly really that I should even be stressing or analyzing this but hey thats why I'm blogging the whole thing. And I am soooo sick and tired of breaking things off at the "seeing each other" phase that it is not even funny. But anyway, some other more happy thoughts.
Today was...good... I guess. I'll be having Drama Class with Lauren which excites me to no end!!! And I went to a buffet today and I way overate but it was okay because with finals and all I got to go home and sleep which was marvelous to the -enth degree. And then at work JT and I "exchanged info". Woohoo!
"I will now make the first incision...crap...now I have two first incisions!"~~on the wonders of knowing your waitressing lines in order.
Oh yeah there is a ghost at The Boy. I have decided that we are going to have a seance around the gas stoves to talk to it and find out why it is haunting me at work.

I can't figure out what to title this so I guess its going to go out there untitled. Well, for startsers I've decided that the whole letters = names thing just isn't gonna wrok so just nicknames, and first names since there are oh so many 'Bobs' in this world anyway.
Well being sick is awful. Far from any life-threatening illness I feel that I've earned my right to complain over my petty little cold. I mean I do have aches and pains and a cough and runny nose...I feel gross! But enough wallowing, it makes it worse.
I made the decision to "put the moves on" Jeff, which if you think about it is pretty funny considering I really don't have any "moves" since I'm sooo uneducated in the ways of the world. But oh well on that. I am in a state of confusion, though, because for all the talk of seeing each other on SUn I feel like its a lifetime away...but at the same time I don't want to see him any sooner because I'm afraid of the awkwardness that may b a result of this new stage in our relationship. WHich is another thing altogether. I mean are we going out or not? I'm not asking for a marriage proposal here just a simple question. Although he's probably just as confused as I am since he doesn't know why in the world I'm so swiny in my likes and dislikes. I'm so moody. Just one of those things I guess.
I was sooooo happy when it snowed on Sun.! It was white and pure and clean. I felt as if my soul had been cleansed by the simple act of frozen rain falling to the ground. What an effect! As I told everyone I saw that day, I love the snow!!
But know the nyquil has kicked in and I'm about to pass out from sleepyness. So much homeworkto do tomorrow. Woe, but that is a problem for tomorrow!

Test Run
Test Run
Just checking out this email blogging thing. I'm so excited by it!
Claim your Space NOW! Have fun sharing blogs, photos and music lists online.
New Page
So much is different than it was in October. I have decided the changes need to be made in my life in a positive direction. Changes that will show me as myself. Things like spontaneousness (yes that is a word I made it up) but also things like organized outings. To catch up though:
For one M. Finally decided to be true and tell me that it wasn't going to work for him. Pain..I cried myself to sleep...But now I'm okay, I miss that feeling though, that feeling that if I needed it someone would be there to hold me in his arms and just be there. But that feeling won't be fulfilled right now, nor will it probably ever be filled later, at least not by M.
To find that space wanting to be filled so quickly by boys that are past loves was mystifying to me. Even more so was the fact that I don't understand my feelings still fo one of them, J. I am afraid to let go and trust my feelings for fear of losing an excellent friendship, but what if? What if I am supposed to be courted and loved by the male? What if the friendship could edure the eventual break-up? Why must I think ahead to a break-up? Because college looms near and distance will not serve a relationship well. In fact it would kill it most assuredly. But What if it survived? WHat do I do now? A conversation took place near the start of November in which I told J. that I needed a friend at the moment, but now I feel, a sort of magnetic effect taking place. I feel excitment at the prospect of seeing his face, hearing his voice, and agin the longing to be held; but is this longing the basis of the feeling? And is it too late to change a previous statement? And how would I go about it? DO I say in simple terms that I want a relationship now? How is that fair? TO keep him witing in the wings until I feel it is safe to come out. What right have I to keep him locked away with half of my heart but apart from my true affections until further notice? his answer would surely not kill any hopes I have since i don't trully know what it is I want. No one has a true answer for me and I fear that the only step to be taken involves me being out on a limb witing for the chainsaw to cut of the connecgting wood.
Never, in my so far short life did I expectto have three, yes three(3) boys vying for my attention. I am so unused to it and I can honestly, but heart-breakenly say I am suprised. I never found myself to be a great beauty thaough I regarded my looks as pretty I find difficuly seeing beyond the frizzy hair, which I love but deteste for its natural originality, and the slightly acned face which is half genetic from my mother...thanks Ma. But past a physical beauty I did, no, still do not find myself to be the most witty person. Not to say that I am a bore but I am a processor as my coach told me. I am not always ready with a quick comeback because often I am stll digesting the jibe thrown at me. I am not dense nor am I inferior, I merely think in a different manner, and at times this is a rather solw process. I felt that it must then be my warm-hearted ways and kid mannerisms, only to discover that it is my honesty in times of strife, my anbilty to cut things to the point without beating around the bush which draws people to me. For in looking inward to myself that is an attribute which I use frequently. The three confuse my and give me a sense of belonging that I haven't felt before, a feeling of being wanted.
A positive lift today. Every person needs 12 hugs a day to thrive. To THRIVE. Such a simple act of touching, innocent and often pure it is a reminder that solittude is not always the answer. THat at some point we all need to have human contact. Our bodies will only function, they will not grow in a steady manner and our spirits and passions will die as well. SO as of todsy I am striving to hug most peope I greet. Fo I benefit as do they, for that brief touch of love may be the decideng factor for how they shape thir lives while it may only change a feeling they harboured deep inside that they were unlovable. ANd if one hug from me can do all this thatn why not give one to everyone I see allthe time.

Nothing big
Today is good. Yesterday was good. I like good days. They make me happy. I saw M. yesterday, poor thing has pneumonia. I wanted to hug him so bad. But I couldn't so I didn't so the moment passed and is gone. I get to see him in a week. The anticipation is driving me CRAZY!!

blah day
O the subject of this blah day I believe that Mon. is actually gah but i'll have to check...Anyway. I hate thinking. I'm so sick of over analyzing things. What I need is to stop thinking about him ( for now on he will be known as M. for clarities sake as well as confidentiality). Things will work themselves out in the end. Although I'm not sure how...why hasn't M. called or emailed? Why can't I stop thinking about it? M. makes me so happy.... maybe I should just leave the whole thing behind me. However I can't. Its to big in my life right now for me to see around it, to dense for me to see through it, and just to multi-personal for me to handle on my own. I know my friends are sick of it...i'm sorry... I hope you understand...let me be selfish for a while...I want some positive attention. DOes that make me attentiong starved? Am I a bad person for it? I like to believe not but what is ther to say otherwise. So many lies can be told on so many levels. I can't see through them to what really matters. I don't know. Trust is huge. I need to increase my trust in others, especially those who are close to me...no thats not right because I could trust them with my life, but not with my feelings...does that make sense? I think what I'm trying to say is I'm not sure WHAT I feel thus I am unable to share it. But yeah. Today was blah. Although it ahad its high points:
"We had to gouge your feelings." "No. No I mean gage...gage your feelings!"
" Look at my black spandex capris! THey're like whales...eeekeeek!"
" I feel the same way about__M.__as I do my cool new spandex capris...."
Along with the fact that J. knows that the boy JA. likes her. (Its amazing how alike their names are).
What a day filled with double entendra and plots and comedy...sounds lke a Shakespearean play... hopefully its acomedy...they worl out in the end---how?---I don't know its a mystery.

I don't know anymore
I don't know where to start. I already knew this. My heart feels tight and constricted. I feel like I can't breathe. Someones friend doesn't say that and not mean it. Watch out, he said. Be careful, he said. I've already put myself out on the line, how do I pull back from it? How do I confront him? I can't think. This is driving me nuts. My head hurts. I want to cry but I can't. I don't know what to do. I'm so lost. I feel like nothing is working. What is wrong with me? I feel like the world has ended and nothing has even happened yet. Its as if I have seen the future and its nothing good. THe world is on my shoulders, I'm no Atlas.

Faith
I am constantly amazed at the faith of hte people in my life. So many attend a church and their faces when they look up at teh altar amaze me. Such hope and belief and an undefinable reverence in each one. It makes me believe, in something, a higher power, a superior being. How cold there not be one when so many believe in one? I am amazed.
Opening
So i'm sitting here confused about my love life...love life...ha, that non-existent thing I keep building up in my head. Why do I do that to myself? I keep building this false hope on menial little things that don't matter. Why did I let that boy come into my heart? He hasn't even done anything to me and I feel broken, broken into little pieces that HE won't pick up for me. I'm angry and sad at the same time, I can't listen to love songs, I want to cry and scream at the same time, I want to lean into his arms and weep then hit him on the head. Why didn't he come? I feel jilted and I've only known him for 3 weeks! This isn't fair. Where are his feelings? How come I'm here in pain? Why won't he call back. I'm lonely but I'm too young to be lonely.
I feel unloved sometimes. My self-esteem has holes in it. I'm so sick of acting all the time. I'm not a strong person. I cry when I'm yelled at. I'm tired of being depended on for everything. When did I become perfect? I'm not God. I can't be everywhere nor do everything. I wish I could. I want to be SuperWoman. I want the world. I want to feel fulfilled with everything. Good grief I want a lot. What have I given?
