Alleluia...
I've started to update this like, 3 times in the past couple of days, and I just stop writing and go do something else eventually.
So since my mother is still working in the OR, and my dad is still at school, and I am stuck here at school, I will update. How bout that?
I miss Jordan so much right now. I've been checking back to the computer a lot so that I could talk to him, but he's always away. Or when he isn't...I have to go somewhere and don't have time. I've just really wanted to talk to him lately.
Last night I went with Carl (Eric's twin brother) and Peter to see Spanglish. Wow. I cried a lot at that movie. It just hit home a little too close at some points. And then it, of course, got me thinking, and I realized probably the saddest thing that I have ever thought of in regards to my parents. And so I couldn't stop crying. I felt ridiculous, but I just kept feeling tears spilling down my cheeks, and I kept wiping them off with my sleeve, and I think Peter wanted to ask what was wrong but didn't. Anyway, I really liked the movie, and I think you have to be able to understand at least SOME Spanish for it to be as good. Because otherwise...you miss a few subtle things. Like one of the last lines the mom says, which is "Goodbye...mi amor." It was adorable, and I think I cried there, too.
I cried watching the final episode from the first season of the OC yesterday too. Jeannie and Kristen and I were watching it, and we were all crying. It was pretty ridiculous. We were all kinda hyper last night. Normal, yes. I got back at like, 12:15, and they escorted me to the elevator with their "guns" and then we rode the elevator up and down a couple of times. It was kinda fun, actually. Jeannie was really hyper, and I can understand why she's like that when she's drunk, but when I know that she's sober, it's about 234 times as funny.
The rest of the week was a rather busy blur. Lots of homework, two quizzes and a test on Wednesday. I was like, sickly tired through Thursday. But I got a lot of sleep on Thursday, and a bunch more today. So that was nice. And now I get to go home and get more sleep, but I'm not sure when the first REAL day of getting to sleep in will be.
Tomorrow, Saturday, I have to take the girls to the airport. Actually, I don't have to. I want to. So I'm dropping Kristen, Jeannie, and Amy off at the airport so that they can leave for Florida. How am I managing to drop them off at the airport if I don't have a car? My parents are going to pick me up, I'll go home and have chili for dinner (maybe I should rethink this white shirt...) and then drive the Jeep back down here for the night. Then after I drop them off, I'll go home for good. Sigh.
Sunday, I am getting up early and going to church at Meridian St. But that's a secret/surprise, so don't tell anyone! Hehe. Oh no...the Alleluia song just came on. This was the last song on the OC. Ahhhhh! Sorry.
Monday, I have to be at the dentist at noonish. Wednesday, I have my job interview at Nova Care at 12:30.
I plan to play with the dog a lot! And I have a bunch of homework to get done, as well.
Okay, I'm going to go and find these lyrics, and then I'm going to watch the IU/Minnesota game.
Love Always,
Alison
