boo.

I'm on day #5 of being sick and it SUCKS. It hit me Thursday at work and then ever since that night I've been confined to my house. Sorta. Woke up Friday morning and had the achy body and the head that felt like a thousand pounds but still got up and ran SIX errands! SIX! good grief. Did miss class though.. But went to a meeting in which I found out some INCREDIBLE news, which I will detail about later ;] - and then Friday night just stayed home and Saturday was supposed to work and B covered my shift but then asked if I could come in 630-930 "if I felt better" .. so I suck it up and go in... and got worse. Sunday just went to eat lunch and ran a few errands, including getting some diff meds hoping they would help.. got the meds, but they don't help much :[ SOO B called the dr today and he said that if I had taken the meds he prescribed David and nothing helped then it's a viral infection.. and basically I would just have to wait it out and just take whatever meds I have to help with the "pain". BOOOOOOOOOOOOOO :[ I hope I get better by this weekend, I can't miss out on Maureen's 21st birthday din :[

Back to the incredible news. - my meeting on Friday was with DARS/VR services (the people/program that pays for my books and etc) and I was just there for a "checkup" meeting that I have to do every 3 months, beginning/end of the semester(s), etc. And was telling him about my plans to do deaf education and go to TWU in Denton and etc etc and he was throwing all this info at me about other schools and etc and Gallaudet came up.. Gallaudet is the deaf university in Washington DC that I've ALWAYS wanted to go to and was my first choice but too expensive blah blah blah. and anyways, he said that if I wanted to go and applied and got in and all that then he'd pay for it!!!!!!!!! :D :D :D :D :D :D So they'll pay for tuition, room/board, books, fees, food (on campus ofc) and etc and to fly me up there in the fall and fly me home in the spring when schools done :] so that was incredible, amazing news. SO needless to say I've already been working on my application, just have to write two essays, get two recommendations, get an audiogram, and get my transcripts/SAT scores. But I'm also still going to apply to TWU in Denton just to have options and etc. But yay! SO exciting! It's just one of those opportunities that I can't pass up without trying for it.

But anyways :]
I'm gna go watch "Charlie Wilson's War" and eat my Krispy Kreme donuts and chocolate milk :] YUM!

whoaaaaa.. its been forever and a day since i've updated!

its now 2009 though! whoohoo!
I didn't really make any new year's resolutions bc for one, I didn't really think it out and two, I never follow through :] hahaa. but it looks like it's going to be interesting! applying to twu, so close to paying off my car, getting a new (used) car, visiting denton, last year at the cw :D, turning 21, last semester at TTU, mercedez's wedding, getting out of lubbock! whoohoo! i'm excited :]

so last week sometime i officially had my breakdown. everything got to be too much; my friends treating me like poop over and over and over and over and over, those that are closest to me in particular; just knowing that big changes are coming up and not really having the patience to wait and just wanting a new change, new people, new scenery, new everything; knowing that always do whatever i can and more for my friends and everybody and not feeling appreciated; butttttttt i drove around the lake, cried and got some hugs from zach and got to talk to barbara and spill it all out and feel MUCH better now.. little things are starting to come together like finding out twu's application deadline, classes for this semester, finding out that i can have my car paid off in like 6 or 7, maybe 5 more payments :D and trading it in/selling it and getting a new and more reliable car :D - thats extrememly exciting! .. idk what car yet but i'm trying to keep my mind open to options but it always goes back to the maxima's, which i've always loved. but. we'll see :] but all i can do right now on that area is just getting it paid off and work on the application to twu.. but anyways.

barbara and david are in dallas for the cotton bowl with chris and jen which means i'm watching our dogs and rusty :D he's so cute.. him and kylie played like crazy last night, chasing each other throughout the house and just going crazy and maddie and i "played ball" for like 5 hours, no joke. but it's been interesting bc maddie's in heat again and so her and gunner are pretty hot for each other right now so she has her panties on when she's in the house and when they're outside, maddie can't be out there with gunner or rusty so it's kinda been boys vs girls.. but its really funny when maddie and gunner start getting alittle hot and they wag their tails and get all happy and gunner looks back at me with this huge smile and maddie literally puts her butt in gunners face and turns into a slut and i have to break it up. and then theres kyli and rusty playing with each other, completely oblivious that their parents are trying to hook up again. bahaha. but anyways.

i can't think of anything else.
