Vanished? No not me, a little sabbatical

Oh hey all that don't read my blog as is... I'll be working on making myself more appealing so you all find me more interesting and therefore feel the need to read me more often :). Thanks for listening.

I'll be doing my best to catch you up in my life from the past four mouths. Until then I leave you with this side note:

Dear future hubby,

You should prob own a fluffy gray turtle neck in your wardrobe (via Dr. John Carter esq). Most appreciated, also devilishly good looks won't hurt our relationship either!

Love,
Your future wife <3

Girls Night

I took part in a Relay for Life event at school last night and ending up staying up until 6am!! Then Crazy enough got up early (10:30) to meet up with my Mom and Grandma to learn some Maine history for class!!


More info and pics to come later...I'm just SOoooooooooooo exhausted from the last 24hours happenings to go on right now. BUT i promise fun pics and maybe a video :)

Break

So my second semester break is coming up...MY LAST BREAK IN MY COLLEGE CAREER!! well at least most of my work is almost done and the weather is looking up!!

There's a bright side to most things!

So Let's Recap

I know I'm not very good at this blog thing, but um hello half of the title is "The College Years". Also Known As: I have HOMEWORK, DANCE TEAM (sadly ending), and other things I'm constantly up too. Excuse me if I don't get around to a blog that people if any read or show interest in :).

Just for the hell of recapping my past week, let's start with this; Vacation ended. First part of my bad day last Sunday. Then at approximately 10pm at night I get a phone call from my Mother, my Grandfather has died. I had to then plan my week and homework assignments due because my Mom, Sister, and Bro were traveling to Canada (yea that's right) come Wednesday to attend all services and spend time with family. It was no picnic contacting all teachers and completing all assignments early.

If anyone has been reading for a while, my other Grandfather (Grampy T) passed away this past July. If you're too lazy to do the math, but are still curious, yea that's two Grandfathers in 8 months and on almost the exact same day (July 27th and Feb 26th, how weird). Well I'm feeling just great about that...NOT.

I have to admit, that this Grandfather was a bit easier to let go because he has been sick about half my life with Lung Cancer and other breathing limitations and the family was constantly getting a phone call that "he wasn't doing well" about once or twice a year, especially in recent years. To say it was a surprise would be stupid because it had been coming for a while now...but to have lost a second Grandfather in such a short amount of time was unthinkable. I would say it was difficult to have not seen him more recently alive and to see him laying in a casket, still as can be. It was also more difficult being the second Grandfather so closely together because it brought all those feelings of losing my first Grandfather back. I was also chosen to help my male cousin in the Pallbearer duties of loading him into the Hurst and then onto his burial site, a new experience to say the least. During those two moments, the whole thing just felt too real and unbearable to be saying goodbye to another loved one.

My previous Grandfather was a bit hard, only because he was in great shape for an 82 year old man and went in for a simple surgery then developed an infection and passed. I was there to see his last night and even though it was hard knowing we were saying goodbye, it was good to be with him. My Grampy T will always hold a place in my heart; one memory of him as he always tried to stealor threaten to cut off my tongue as I would stick it out at him (I was a rebel child) and as I got older and would visit him on my own he always made sure others knew I was there to visit him and that I was comfortable, even if he wasn't.

As for my Grampy C (we were very original in naming our grandfathers when we were younger), I feel sad that he lived in Canada and I was only able to see him for certain holidays, recent wedding, or few times during years. Especially in the past few years he wasn't traveling much with just him and my Grandmother because of his poor health. I gotta say it is the strangest feeling to go from 2 grandfathers to none in less than a year. No great-grandfather (as my sis is expecting), no Grandfather to have at my wedding, only adopted grandfathers left...and although I love my adopted grandfathers, it's just not the same.

I have to say, the I hope both my Grandfathers are together and watching over my family...as sappy or stupid as it sounds. I feel like they are both in a better place (or I'd like to believe) because both were suffering through pains due to old age and Grampy C was never truly comfortably breathing. Hopefully now Grampy C is worrying about trailing his breathing tube around the house and is in great company with my other Grampy.

It's Kinda Rude....

It's kinda when you dislike the fact that I go in my room and shut the door to get away from your pointless "conversations" to relax and do homework.

It's kinda rude that YOU go into your room, but keep your door WIDE open with a television show blarring from your computer.

It's also kinda rude when you've seen me come home get lunch together (then you conveniently start making lunch as well and pull an attitude with me cuz we keep getting in each others way...wait your turn!), then you WATCH me turn on Netflicks in the living room and continue to keep your computer show VERY loud...

It's also kinda WEIRD (see how I mixed it up?) that you text me, while I'm home and sitting in the other room, about some mac and cheese your craving...um go ahead and eat the stuff! Or better yet, ask me to my face and maybe we wouldn't have the problems we have....Just a thought though.

Dear Recently Single Friends

Oh Hey girl, I came over to talk to you and now your ignoring every word that comes out of my mouth....NOW you're wondering WHY I'm being QUIET?!?!?? WOW


Need a refresher in manners? Some college girls still do. I get it, you JUST broke up (or got broken up with) your boyfriend Thursday afternoon and he changed his relationship status that officially makes it official don't ya know on facebook early Friday morning. And yes I have been single for THREE, count  'em 3 years...fine DON'T listen to my advise that I have been through and learned since being single. Instead turn to the girl next to me who broke up with her boyfriend last month and take only her advice!

I could give S$!&T, but please don't invite me to come back when you choose to not even acknowledge me...God, grow up like you say you want your EX to do and have some frigging manners to at least acknowledge I have been through a break up.

 While we're on the this subject, I just want to point out that I AM SINGLE, whew ok now that you understand my status. I want to point out that I don't mind this; Exhibit A: I don't bitch about the person I supposedly "Love" other hours of the day, Exhibit B: I don't have to lie or "hide the truth" from anyone, cuz I don't have to explain my actions to ANYONE but ME :). Again don't get me wrong, I have liked having someone to talk to about anything, but for now...I don't need any townie in my life.

My point to this last post was to just explain to you "spoken" people, WHY THE HELL MUST YOU POST CRAP ABOUT YOU AND YOUR BOYFRIEND/FIANCE ALL THE FREAKIN' TIME?!?!?! My god, your are with them enough, I don't care (sorry some people I care that they truly love their loved one and their loved loves them back), but others I don't care that you JUST left your fiances house and already miss him...can we say it together?? PATHETIC!!!


Thank you, I feel better :) Have a Great Day!!!

Hairy Things to talk about

Hair, a girls BEST accessory in my opinion. Sorry if you're one of those people that has difficult hair that does not always work in your favor, trust me I have those days too. My hair, luckily and thankfully, is tame and agreeable to me and allows me to style it relatively easy.

This post is for the fans or me to decide what to do next with my hurrr. I'm not revealing the cut choice until after the appointment cuz I've been wanting to cut my hair a certain way for some time now, just never thought I could get away with it, but after a recent cut and encouragement from friends and family I'm choosing to go a BIT more dramatic than usual. HOPEFULLY all goes well and I will have my dramatic yet cute-chic-vintage-esk hair dooooo.

I guess my true question is while I am set on the cut, I am debating whether or not DYING MY HAIR TOOOo. I have naturally blonde hair with some natural highlights. However, in high school my hair went through a DARK phrase and turned on me with a nasty dirty blonde gloss...ewww to say the least. So my fight you ask? I DYED my hair a "lighter" blonde and received a LOVELY strawberry-blonde shade that I serious fell in love with. So my debate is whether or not I get the cut AND dye my hair all in one weekend.....the hard decision I am forced to make :)


Let me know if you have thoughts....this will let me know if anyone reads my thoughts of nothingness as well!!
