Woo hooo... 5 more days and its SPRING BREAK!!! I am so excited, it is SO close! I know we don't have it with everyone else, and yea that kinda sucks with friends at other schools, but look at it this way: we get everywhere to ourselves! I am going to the beach house I went to last year at New Smyrna, and I can only hope that it is Bike Week again! It's going to be me, Taylor and a bunch of people from Edgewater, and maybe this FIJI pledge. I am so ready and it's going to be a blast!!!!!

7:10 pm - Damn it feels good to be a gangsta...
Grades came out this week... 4 A's and a B-. Yea that's right, I'm on the Dean's List with a 3.65. That's a complete turn around from first and second semester's combined 2.4 GPA. At least I will get 75% Bright Futures back after this summer.

So far break is going by sooo slow, but I'm having fun shopping everyday with the girls. I can't wait to see Taylor again. He's getting kick ass presents for Christmas.. I wonder what he will come up with for me!!

3 days til Christmas... Hope everyone has a good one!

Alright.. so I am running for Secretary on E-Board. I am really excited about this position and hope that I get slated and elected. My roommate Shannon is running against me so I will update in a few weeks after elections and let you know how it turned out.

C-Nunny... you and Jordan, or just you, better be getting your ass up to FSU this weekend. It will be the perfect time because it's a 3 day weekend, and 2 of my roommates will be out of town! If I don't see your face this weekend, I will have someone in Gainseville slit your wrist. Up the street of course. lol... but seriously, come party.. Taylor misses you and said he liked you best.

Glad this weekend is 3 days bc it will really be 4 days for me since I have no Tues/Thurs classes and I need some serious sleep in time. Last night was fun hanging out with Taylor's friends from high school/spring break.. accidently drank some alchy when I thought we were just "stopping by" to see Jon. But I can't turn down flip-cup, especially when I RULE at it and my team dominated.

P.S. A little upset that my little went to All American Rejects and the Academy Is... without me. It was sold out by the time I realized I could go.. I really wish Dashboard would come through Tally again this year.

SO I was in O-Town/APK this past weekend. I had a great time with Taylor's family. Friday we went to the Edgewater/Apopka (yes, high school football, I know.. lame) game. For you Lakewood Ranch kids, imagine us versus like.. Southeast. I laughed the whole time that I was actually at the game but it was fun because his little brother was waterboy and he basically played in the water more than giving it to players. Saturday I went to Millenia looking for a Semi-Formal/Big-Little Revelation dress, and of course could not find ANYTHING! I have 2 weeks and I need a black or white dress, preferably white because I wanna be like Kristen from LB(the only girl wearing white ;) ) So then Sunday we went out to Ocoee and went out on the boat and wakeboarded. I tried to at least. Couldn't get up and pulled a muscle in my arm. At least I got a tan. Tomorrow morning I have 2 tests, so wish me luck.... Study time!

7:48 pm - Countdown...
I go back to Tallahassee on Friday and I can't even wait! I will miss Dee, Chels and Amanda for sure, but I am anxious to see my sisters and to experience living in the house with 31 girls! The first two weeks will be stressful, but I hope classes aren't too bad come when they start on the 29th.

I have most all my clothes packed, except for those that are dirty, and tomorrow I am going through the rest of my boxes in the garage. I don't like to pack until the last minute but my mom doesn't.

Friends is on, so I will update more tomorrow.

current mood: tired

I have been in South Carolina for 10 days for my brothers AAU baseball tournament and I am ready to go home!! His team did not do very well and we are leaving tomorrow morning.

10:24 pm - Rumor Mill....
> Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner have wed in the Carribean. The couple, who are expecting their first child together, married on the island of Parrot Cay, with the now Mrs. Affleck wearing white. The newlyweds are now on their honeymoon.



> American Idol's second runner up Bo Bice also married his girlfriend yesterday in Alabama.



> And the BIG story, although I am very skeptical:

"Independent Sources has hesitated writing about Tom Cruise/Katie Holmes for many reasons. First, there are other things going on in the world that, believe it or not, rank higher on the importance scale. Second, pretty much everything that can be said is being said.

However, someone (I’ll call her Mistress of the Hollywood Rumor) just walked into Insider’s office with the following dish that I feel compelled to pass on. I did a quick check of Technorati and it wasn’t there. So even if it is not true, it is at least original.

No doubt that anyone with an Internet connection has read about Tom Cruise being gay. According to rumor lore, he has had a long-time boyfriend in Chicago who is an Asian pilot for American Airlines. This is an accusation that Cruise and more importantly Cruise’s many attorneys vehemently deny.

There have been many stories that supposedly corroborate his sexuality but never a smoking gun. Rumor mongers attribute this to the fact that Cruise goes to great lengths to cover his tracks. We are told that everyone around him signs extensive confidentiality contracts with enormous penalties for indiscretion. (Exhibit A: the 8–page confidentiality contract Cruise’s housekeeper was forced to sign).

Such stories have been around for years and Cruise has evidently attempted to counter them with a series of high-profile heteronormative relationships. First, Nicole Kidman, then Penelope Cruz, and most recently Katie Holmes. In each instance, the “relationship” is actually a contract that gives the women a boost to their careers, a lot of money, and an elegant lifestyle.

Here is where this particular rumor gets interesting. Not long ago, Marisol, the wife of Matchbox Twenty’s Rob Thomas (who has had to contend with his own rumors of bi-sexuality) found her husband in bed with Tom Cruise causing Cruise’s people to shift into high gear.

First, Mrs. Rob Thomas was bought off for an undetermined sum. Second, Cruise and his handlers set out to immediately find Cruise a girlfriend. Second-tier actresses were targeted. A list was drawn up with Jessica Alba (#1 pick) and three other girls who fell out for various reasons. Originally targeted (#3 I think) but later rejected as “undesirable” was rumor queen Lindsay Lohan. Way down at #5 on the list was Katie Holmes, but that was the one with whom they were able to strike a deal.

Once the contact was signed, photo ops were set up, leaks were made to the right places, and we’ve had celebrity relationship on steroids ever since.

One thing I will credit this rumor for is how it nicely explains Tom’s behavior this past few months—including the couch jumping episode on Oprah. Cruise simply didn’t have time for the Holmes rumors to circulate at its normal speed and he couldn’t allow it to be second page news while the tabloids focused on Brad, Jennifer and Angelina. No, this relationship had to immediately become the “it” topic."

current mood: loved

10:21 pm - Rants and Raves...
Rants:

>Maybelline Sky High Curves Mascara: NEVER comes off your eyelashes and makes them fall out when you try to remove it.

>Ladies who think they have the right of way coming out of a shopping complex as opposed to the driver on the road turning into that complex.

>Pullout couches: The springs push into your back after one nights sleep. So think of how bad it is sleeping on it all summer because your mother did not make you a room in the new house, and instead made it an office... Because "after this summer you won't be staying here."

>Skinny girls: I'm not saying I'm fat, but I'm not as small as I used to be. The girls with the perfect bodies could do us all a favor and wear more clothes so we all don't feel so bad about ourselves. We should be happy, but when we (maybe I should say I?) see it I feel like throwing up the Chickfila and Coldstone I just ate. (Note: I would never really throw up to lose weight.)

>PacSun: Only giving me 3 1/2 hours off work this week. I can't wait for my $18 dollar paycheck!! I wish they would schedule me more!!


Raves:

>Moe's: Big reason I miss Tallahassee, and those of you who've been to one surely love it. I'm just excited there is one in Orlando that I get to go to, because I desperately miss their queso.

>Victoria's Secret's Semi-Annual sale. What more do I have to say about that?

>Jergen's Natural Glow Daily Moisturizer. I have a beautiful golden tan only two days after I started using it, and I haven't even been outdoors! Run out and buy a bottle or two.

>Pedicure, fresh full set of nails, haircut and cute new outfit: Gotta look good for my boyfriend, it has been 2 weeks since I've seen him!

>Surfing lessons: When they're from a hot guy on the east coast, what's not to love? It doesn't hurt when it's my Taylor.

>Scrapbooking: It's the best way to display all your pictures. It can be costly (mine was $120 to make just for my sorority) but it's so fun!!


Might be going to SeaWorld this weekend, but still not sure. I'll be in Orlando, and I'm going to New Smyrna, hopefully it will be a great weekend. <3

2:41 pm
Today I had an interview at PacSun.. oh joy.. I know it's not the best job in the world, but anything beats sitting on my butt, upset that my boyfriend lives 2 hours away. I'm actually pretty excited. I already babysit about 12 hours a week for the most adorable twin girls, and yesterday I babysat for a Minnisota Twin's pitcher's kids. His wife is gorgeous, as well as their house. I made $160 bucks in 8 hours, so I'd say that's A-Okay. I'm pretty sure I got the job at PacSun, at least he said I did if my background comes back clear. Working at the outlet mall is better than scummy Desoto Square. I really really want a pink I-pod mini, so my mom said once my bank account is back up to $2000 I can get one. I'm almost there. However she did buy me the most amazing Chanel bag a few weeks ago. I wanted to post a picture, but I can't find one online. It's kind of rectangular, white quilted with black straps and C's. I'm obsessed.

I just finished working out. I wish I had more motivation and actually used the Leech Center at FSU. I'm glad I am finally trying to get back in shape though. I used a personal workout plan that I got on Glamour.com. I encourage any of you who wants a full body workout that you can do in your living room to go on the website and start an account. It's free!! I'm achy, so I know it works. It is a three month plan that gives you weekly workouts that you only have to do twice a week, and it guides you, but doesn't tell you, what you can do with your eating habits to help the process.

Thursday Taylor is coming down. I am so excited to see him, it's been over 2 weeks! We are going to Miami with my family for my brother's AAU baseball tournament. I am so relieved that this long distance thing is working out. I knew it would be tough, and I assure you it is, but we are doing amazing. I'm so happy with him. He's amazing.

I can't wait to get back up to Tally. I miss all my sisters and my Taylor. The atmosphere is so much better up there. Only two more months!!!

Now I must go work on my scrapbook... <3
