I miss Daniel Rhyne.
I miss our conversations, late night hangouts, back scratches, drives to and from Charlotte, 24 nights, House nights, jokes, and fun times. I must be in that group of people he's steered away from, hoping to find something new. That sucks pretty bad, considering he was one of the two people I knew I could always rely on. I don't understand why having friends is so difficult or why I've been so unhappy with the people around me lately. They seem to not care or have their own cliques, and while Dave and I always make it a point to invite as many people to different events/parties/etc., I tend to always feel left out. I just wish someone would want to come to my place sometime...instead of me always having to go to theirs. And I wish I could be someone's first choice instead of "DaveandAlissa" and have people call me instead of me calling them. Maybe I'm the bad friend...who knows. If I am, I wish someone would tell me so I could fix it. I don't get it...I make good grades, have a job, hold an officer position in ultimate, know a lot of people, and I'd like to consider myself a nice, sincere person. Why do I feel like I have no friends?
Above everything though, I miss Daniel Rhyne.
Anyway, my weekend was awful for completely different reasons. They're not really personal...I just don't want to explain them.
Also, this 5K fundraiser is kicking me in the ass. I'm trying so hard to put this together, and it seems that with everything, you need approval through an application or a permit...which needs to be obtained through an application. I don't know how to get anywhere if I'm trying to apply for this and that before I can apply for this and that and so on. I want desperately for the team to make some money through this fundraiser because there's is going to be a hell of a lot of work I have to put into it...and of course, I'd like to see the team walk away wih money to help out with tournaments, gas money, etc. I want the satisfaction of being a success story rather than a failure, and it scares me that I will fail because I've never done anything like this before.
I need to study for a lab quiz, go to class at 2:30, study some more, go to lab at 5, go to a bio review session at 7, and then study for an enternity for my bio test tomorrow.
I haven't gone running in forever, and that's killing me. I feel la-la-lazy. It's because I've been sick though. I don't want to use that as an excuse, but it's a perfectly good reason, seeing as how I was having a mental/physical breakdown on the futon I haven't had the energy to get off of in a week.
In good news, Top Design premieres tonight, and I've been looking forward to it for a long time. Please let it be about DESIGN and not decorating. If it's not, I will be completely disappointed.
Perhaps I will be in a better mood the next time I post. That would be ideal. |

This semester is going pretty well. I've only got 1 class on Mondays, and it's at 8:30 am. I don't have any classes on Fridays, which is awesome. They give me perfect opportunities to work on those days instead of trying to cram in class and work on the same day. I'm also using a planner like it's my best friend, so we'll see if it helps. I already forgot to go to the library this weekend, but I can go tomorrow if I need to. I just got back from playing around in the pool at the rec center since it's OPEN FINALLY. My friends and I had a blast. I'm trying to set up a fundraiser for women's ultimate. I've got to make tons of phone calls tomorrow to try and make it work, and I really hope it does. Basically I'm trying to get the team to host a 5K around State Farm. How freaking COOL would that be?? I'm going to have to put so much into it if we can go through with it, but I definitely want this opportunity. Wish me luck. I went snowboarding the other week and got some waterproof gloves from Mast yesterday for 40% off, so I'm really excited to go again sometime soon. Perhaps if it would snow sometime... Grandma and Grandpa stopped by Boone yesterday on their way to Charlotte, so it was really nice to see them again. They took Dave and me out to lunch at Bandana's (duh), which was cool. They got me excited to see my family in IL in June. Alyssa moved out the other week, and I couldn't be happier. I was to the point of hoping she wasn't in the room when I opened the door, and I'm sure she was the same with me. It's absolutely awful how we let our friendship go out the window, but hey, we all make choices. She can find herself without me because I hate the direction she's letting her life go. My room has a bit of a new layout, and I LOVE it! This is it:
I'm gonna go take a shower because this chlorine is giving me the creeps. Then I've got to work on my accessible house design for studio and take some notes on Ch. 23 for Biology, since I've been taking notes about everyday so far this semester, and it's not even required. Yeah, it makes me feel pretty good about myself to actually be reading for biology this semester and trying to stay on top of things. I hardly feel stressed out at all right now, and it's one of the best feelings in the world. Current Music: In The Crossfire -Starsailor |

I've been in Boone the past couple days working at Bandana's. I managed to get some nice cash out of it, and I'm really glad I went. Work was fine, nothing really to complain about. There were a few crappy tips...but that's expected. Sigh.
So basically, today was a great day. Let me explain why:
- I was happier and more talkative at work, which rarely happens. I'm still new enough to just want to get there, do my job, and leave. Others hang around before/after work or go out and party with other employees...yeah, I don't. But I still had a really good time today.
- I GOT A TOWNHOUSE FOR NEXT YEAR! I've REALLY been wanting to rent from these townhouses behind King Street for my junior and possibly senior year, but it was pretty doubtful that I'd get it. Turns out there was one opening, and it's mine!
- Dave and I hit our one year mark today. Whoa. Oh, and it's our "official" one year because we did have that 5 week episode. It's crazy and weird and comfortable and unsettling all at the same time.
- I drove back to Charlotte today because I'm watching Cooper this weekend. The drive was easy despite the one and off rain. Got to hang out with my brother, which is cool because I rarely get to do that.
Cooper and I are going running in the morning after I swing by Wachovia to drop off some money and a paycheck. I got some new running shoes over the summer, and he got some in the past week. We're both really trying to get into this sport. I know I've said it so many times before, but this time...I'm actually carrying through with my goals. I'd really like it to last for awhile especially because I've found routes to run around Boone, and I already feel my progress. I'm still not a huge fan of running in general, but I've been reading some books and buying a bit of gear from Target to help keep my motivated. Oh, and did I mention the scale I bought? Not only does it measure weight, but it can also calculate my body fat. I'm hoping that'll keep me more on track while I'm at school because I've never had a scale since I've been there. I'm just really tired of hearing my parents make jokes and feeling sick of myself. I've only got this body once, and I want to be comfortable with it. Wish me luck.
I should really be getting to bed. Wachovia is only open from 9-12 tomorrow...so I can't sleep in too late. :/ |

Quick update:
Trevor got my iPod working again. He let it dry out and cleaned about every part of it. That genius of a kid.
That thunderstorm last night was completely awesome. I don't care how massive of a storm it was...it was so cool to watch it.
Despite the thunderstorm, we played frisbee at the church last night. We started when it was just thundering and lightning and kept playing after the rain started. Nobody could see a thing, and the rain was coming down so hard it hurt...but we had a GREAT time. I seriously needed the fun.
I'm going to Asheville this weekend for a huge free music festival. It should be fun.Current Music: Summer of 69 -Bryan Adams |

Bah, I'm ready for summer to end. I've been annoyed/frustrated/tired way too often, and I want to go back to school. I'm ready for class, tests, anything...as long as it gets me out of Charlotte.
I work a lot. Winchester's season just ended, so that's been giving me a bit more free time. Before it ended though, I was working about 10-11 hours a day. I've been making a lot of money, which is exactly what I wanted.... except that I just wrote a check to my mom today for pretty much everything I've made this summer (fall semester tuition). Now I'm back to basically nothing, so I'm very excited for another paycheck in a week or so.
I dropped my iPod in the water the other day. I just got off the phone with Apple, who basically told me they can't do anything except take my money for a brand new iPod. Lame.
I'm sick of living at home...it's not because my parents and I are fighting or because I can't go out whenever I want. My parents and I don't fight, and I don't have a curfew. I'm sick of everything I own becoming everything my family owns. Things get thrown out, things get moved and I can't find them, etc. I'm so tired of it. And yeah, I realize I share a room with another person when I am in Boone, but she's got her side, and I have mine. It's very seperate.
Trevor works and volunteers for Habitat for Humanity now. Since he doesn't feel very comfortable taking either of my parents' cars, he always takes the Mazda. I take my dad's car, and I don't know when the last time I drove the Mazda was. My dad's car is fine to drive...except that I miss my blue car. It's half mine, and it seems like I always get the crappy end of the deal. I can't bring it to Boone since Trevor is required to come home every three weeks by his school, and he wants it to be in Charlotte for when he's home. Since he has to work and volunteer, he gets the blue car whenever he needs it. I just want to drive my own car. I suggested us selling the Mazda and using the money to get two seperate cars, but Trevor doesn't like that idea.
I've started running just about everyday. By "started", I mean back at the beginning of June. I need an activity that will help me keep in somewhat shape. I like the act of running...kind of. I guess I'm learning to like it. The only problem that I have is that I have to wake up extra early to be able to fit it into my schedule...and THAT I don't like.
I feel like I don't even have a boyfriend because we live in two different cities. I still talk to him on the phone just about every night, but I'm getting so tired of it. When I do see him, it's not like being back in Boone...it just gets incredibly frustrating.
When Winchester ended, families were asked to complete a survey about the team. Only a few people have responded, but I'm already ticked. I worked so hard to be at EVERY practice I could be at (lifeguarding sometimes kept me from practice), I cheered as MUCH as I could during the meets (because I also had to swim in them), I helped the volunteers whenever they needed, my family drove 13 hours back from Illinois on the day of a swim meet just so my brothers and I could swim in it, and I helped organize the coaches for champs. And STILL, there were anonoymous parents claiming I "barely showed up for practice" and didn't work as hard as two of the other coaches. I hate that I look bad just because I had a second job and couldn't be at EVERY morning AND evening practice. I absolutely hate when I try my hardest to make everyone happy, and it never works out. I wear myself out trying to please everybody else, and I don't understand why I do it if I'm just going to get feedback like that. I really do appreciate the parents that applauded my work, talked to me everyday, and were at the practices and meets to truly know what was going on.
Despite feeling like everything is going wrong in my life, I do have a few positive points:
+ By working so much this summer, I hope to not have to work during the school year.
+ My 19th birthday is in exactly one month.
+ Frisbee at the church tonight.
+ My boss is bringing the international guards to Boone to visit App (Aug. 19 and 20) and the mountains before they have to go back to their native countries.
+ I move into my dorm on August 17th and help freshmen move in from 4:30-6:30 pm on the 18th.
+ My family is going to the beach at the end of July/beginning of August, and I have decided to not go with them. Saying I will have the house to myself is not code for "party at Alissa's!" though. I want the house to myself. I want to not be bothered by people. I want a chance to relax.
+ I was able to sleep in for the first time this morning since the beginning of June. I got up at 12, and it was glorious.
Anyway, I've got to go take a shower and drop off some swim lesson/pool party information to the CPM office to get paid for them. Then I've got work from 3:30-9 and frisbee at the church right after that.

We're so close to leaving for the summer...I'm out of here Wednesday night. I can't believe how quickly this year has flown by. I hope that I can look back on my first year and not have any regrets...or wish that I had used my time differently. Alyssa's already been packing her stuff up...gah, it's so sad. I hate talking about leaving or even thinking about it, but I've been doing both so much lately.
Anyway, I thought I'd just kind of sum up a lot of the great things about the year because there have been so, so many...
1) meeting some of the most amazing people i've ever met in my life:
2) Living with Alyssa...and all of our messes:
or cleanliness (err, sometimes):
3) Boone and all its beauty, movie nights, frisbee practice, throwing on duck pond field, naps, tournament trips, hanging out in dorms, trips to the gym, Marty Parties, sleepovers, febrezing...everything, lunch at 12 everyday at Welborn, learning to snowboard with Megan, carrides to and from App Ski Mountain, Arby's after snowboarding, rec center opening, tcby smoothies and 96% fat free chocolate ice cream, ping pong on 8th floor Gardner, House parties, 24 parties, walking to lunch with Daniel everyday, class...to some extent...duh, drafting for hours a day, watching That 70s Show late at night for episodes at a time, hanging out on 3rd floor Coltrane, visits from family/friends, Banff Film Festival, meeting Dave's family and going home with him to Asheville for a weekend, freshman seminar, singing while painting for Habitat with Alyssa, Ben, and Lenneka, and so much more.
This year has been amazing, and I'm going to miss it. Summer will be fun, but I know that I'll be looking forward to being back in Boone for my sophomore year. Since Daniel and I live so close (only 30 minutes apart and we never knew each other! hahaha), I know we'll be visiting each other a lot. Justin's not too far off in Columbia too. It's about a two hour drive, so I know I'll be seeing him too. Kyle's so much further away...all the way in Chambersburg, PA. Daniel and I have considered a road trip to see him, but with my schedule, I don't know how likely that is. I'd like to think it'll happen though. Dave's two hours away in Asheville, but we obviously will be visiting back and forth as much as possible. Sadie's really close to Dave, so maybe I'll be able to see her this summer too. Haha, she's going to Europe though...so I don't know how much spare time she'll have. Jamie's not too far away being in Greensboro and all...I'd like to see her sometime this summer too.
I guess the entire point of this entry is just to say I'm not ready to leave. This place feels like a home to me, so it's weird to have to pack everything up and move somewhere else for three months only to come back and pick up where I left off. I guess I'll have to get used to it though.
I love my life right now.
p.s.- Forgive me for not using an lj cut. I didn't realize how many pictures I had until I had already pasted them all. :/

So yesterday was the first day of spring. Boone had its own way of celebrating the day:
The trees behind Bowie.
I was pretty disappointed the view wasn't better, but there was just too much fog/snow.
I was actually happy about the snow. It looked gorgeous, and although I had been in such warm weather all last week, it was so reassuring to know I was definitely back in Boone.

Today's Events
THE GOOD:
+ I got the coolest new beach outfit from old navy today...I can't wait to wear it.
+ I had an eye appt and got newer, better contacts.
+ I got lots of water for the dorm from Sam's Club today.
+ I exchanged my faulty That 70s Show Season 1 for a Season 1 that included a Disc 2 (and the really hot nerdy kid that works in the Geek Squad part of Best Buy was working too...gah, he's so pretty.)
+ I bought myself a Subway sandwich.
+ I got two new pairs of sunglasses for the beach.
+ Daniel visited me!
+ I taught Coop and Daniel how to play disc golf.
+ 24 is getting better, I must admit. It was so awesome tonight.
+ Kyle said something very clever on the phone today, and it made me laugh.
+ Daniel and I played a freaking awesome game of Jenga. We got a new Shannon household high score! 33 1/3. That's GOT to be impressive, don't you think?
+ We got alcohol for SB.
+ Dave called me...I wasn't expecting a phone call from him until at least Wednesday because he's on a backpacking trip and doesn't usually get service. However, he happened to get service where he is and used the opportunity, which made me very happy. I miss him a lot. I can already tell this summer is going to be very difficult.
THE BAD
- I got a flat tire today after hitting a pothole. It's going to cost me about $300 to completely replace the tire and align or whatever. I don't know anything about cars...but I have to pay $300. And THAT is a LOT of money. My brother did the exact same thing last weekend, and my parents helped him out with the payment, but I don't think they are going to that with me. This is such bad, bad timing.
- I don't need any drama before the beach...especially with people I'm going to the beach with. Plus, I can't stand dramatic, complicated situations anyway.
- I didn't get any of my art project done.
- I haven't packed or finished doing my laundry yet...and it's 11:57.
I need to get ready for the beach. I'm really, really ready for a break. I want to take a walk barefoot on the beach so badly. Myrtle is going to be fun fun fun, I just know it. Yeah, definitely.
Mar. 13th, 2006 @ 11:28 pm

| » To be honest, I wrote this entry to procrastinate on doing the most annoying art project ever. |
|---|
I just got back from a 3 hour drafting session. Hmm, that's always fun. I don't really say that sarcastically either...I really do like drafting, even though it required hours of outside work. I like being proud of the work I create in that class.
Frisbee. Oh goodness. Frisbee has been pretty awesome lately, even though people refuse to show up for practice. I understand it's a club sport and all, but I hate seeing everyone complain about us sucking and playing poorly when there's such an easy solution...practice. Marty helped me and four other girls the other day. My hucks got pretty impressive apparently. I was throwing 65 yd. throws.. :) I wish people would have more dedication...or at least more of an interest. The game is so fun, and I really want to get better...but I can't always practice with the guys because they're not who I play with at tournaments...plus, I feel like I slow them down. OH, and also, I've been appointed either vice president or secretary (the next step down from vp) next year. Jamie and I will decide who has which. I don't think I really care which position I have...I just want our frisbee team to stay up and running.
I'm going to Asheville this weekend with Dave, Devin, Amy, and whoever else decides they want to go too. It's definitely going to be a little awkward because I'll be staying at Dave's house...but at the same time, I've met his family a couple times before, and apparently they like me. I'm "cute" or something. Whatever. I'm excited though. He talks about home all the time, and now I can see where he comes from. Learning about people's backgrounds is so cool.
Things are really going well with Dave too. I really don't talk about how we're doing unless someone asks because frankly, I don't think they care. And I don't care to tell them...it's just weird to talk all sappy and stuff to people. This is my lj though...and I'm writing in it, basically to myself even though it's available for the public to read. So let me just say, I am so happy. He's so cool, and I can definitely talk to him about anything. I really have never found myself so appreciative of another person before. I'm so glad I talked him into this whole dating thing...it'll be 3 months on the 11th. (By the way, I took out like 4 'really' words in this paragraph...I guess I use 'really' a lot.)
I have my dorm for next year. It's Cone 317...co-ed floor, non-smoking, rooming with Alyssa again. Justin Allen and his roommate, Chris Thomas, are on my floor too. The room is apparently a little bigger than the other rooms on the floor and is in the same spot on the floor that my current room is. Jamie's got the room i'm in now next year...it's really sad that we're not going to live on the same floor...or, for that matter, on the same side of campus, next year. Yeah, that's because I'm going to be on the east side of campus right next to the Student Union, Sanford Mall, Welborn, and basically the center of App. I'm so excited for next year. This is a layout of my dorm room:
Exciting, I know. Alyssa and I will bunk the beds again, and our room is basically going to look the same except we'll have dressers too. :D Thinking about next year is kind of depressing though. It means I'll be working 55 hours a week every week in Charlotte for an entire summer, missing everyone back in Boone, and having essentially no life (even though I look forward to guarding and coaching again)before I can start my sophomore year. I don't know what I'm going to do without the friends and freedom that come with college.
Lent starts tomorrow...in a few hours, in fact. I've never taken Lent seriously before...I've just never been interested in giving up something I love for 40 days. That is, before I came to college. During the first semester, I used to work out a lot...and then I slowly got very lazy during this semester beginning around Winter Break. Well, I've really gained about 10 lbs. by not doing enough exercise...so I intend to lose that. I've let myself become so dependant on bad, cheap food, and it's really starting to get to me - physically and mentally. Basically, this is what my lent will consist of:
1. giving up vending machines (except for goldfish and lance crackers)
2. no more than one soda a day...i've become so addicted since coming to app.
3. running/working out once a day...if frisbee practice is actual practice, that will count as my running for the day...this one will be the most difficult I think...since I hate running so much.
Spring Break starts March 11th (another reason for my sudden interest in eating better and working out more often). I can't wait to go to Myrtle Beach with Megan and Alyssa. I've never been on a vacation with my friends before, so it should be SO ENTERTAINING, to say the least.
I think I've written more than enough for an update...haha, I get so carried away when I actually sit down to type an lj entry...it's ridiculous.

I know I haven't updated in a long time, and I don't have time for a full update right now...but I thought today's event was worth quickly mentioning.
I participated in App's annual Polar Plunge...an event in which each person pays $20 to jump into the VERY chilly Duck Pond. I know...$20...but it's to help raise money for the Special Olympics. There were probably about 200 people there jumping plus tons of people watching, and it was so much fun. It was freezing...I was shivering for an hour. But I donated $20 to the Special Olympics, so it was cool. As Kevin put it, 'we're helping a retarded kid feel good about himself'.
me jumping in with four other frisbee girls (i'm in the grey shirt, duh):
So this day has been incredibly exhausting. I need sleep...now. I promise an actual update sometime very soon.
(Quiz in math and test in marriage class tomorrow...on the brighter side, Marty Party tomorrow night. :D)

So basically when Trevor, McKinley, Nate, Matt, Aaron, Blake, and me were back together, we were constantly thinking back on memories of when we all lived together. After posting all these pictures of how everyone is NOW, I thought it'd be a neat idea to look back in some old photo albums my mom put together years ago. I was laughing so hard at some of these pictures I was finding...just seeing how we looked, what we wore, what we thought was cool, etc. Anyway, I thought some of these were too awesome not to share, so here they are. They are in order by date (for the most part) from 1995-2000.

First of all, Happy New Year.
Also, it's Mom's birthday today...she's the big 4-5.
Nate and Matt's 18th birthday was this past Thursday, so Trevor and I went down to hang out with them. We had a lot of fun, and it was really cool to see everyone again. I saw McKinley for the first time in about six years. God, we were the best of friends through elementary school. She moved away after sixth grade, and I was able to visit her once in Indiana in seventh grade. She has since moved back to Georgia, while I, obviously, have moved away. Man, it was so neat to see her. Nate and Matt had a birthday party on Friday night too. That was cool. I came back on Saturday....just in time to visit DREW who was in town. It was SO cool to see him too. I babysat on New Year's Eve...first time I've ever done that. I'm so desperate for money, so I figured it would be an easy way to get some. It really was too...I didn't go over to their house until 10, and Colin and Lleyton were going to sleep when I got there.
I've got some pictures...well I have a LOT of pictures...from Georgia. Here's some of them.

I just got a call from Caite. She's been watching my fish over Christmas break because I didn't want to leave it in my dorm all break and it would have been a bit of a hassle to bring back to Charlotte. She lives in Boone and was gracious enough to let me drop off Ernie with her.
Anyway, the thing died. I feel so terrible that it had to die while Caite was responsible for it...but it was old and really just needed to be out of its misery. Caite feels so bad, but I told her repeatedly that it's not her fault.
Good lord, what timing.
I'm pretty glad it didn't die with me though. :X

Christmas went well this year. I hadn't really been excited for it because I think I missed out on a lot of the "Christmas spirit". Being in school kept me away from all the Christmas shopping, Christmas music, etc. But it still turned out to be a nice holiday.
My parents decided to invite neighbors over for dinner and whatnot on Christmas afternoon. A lot of people showed up, and it was nice to see everyone again. However, I ended up spending most of the night with Susan, Sarah, and Trevor. The four of us haven't hung out together in so long...it was cool to do that again. Ma took a picture of us at one point, and I really liked it:

So Dad works with this guy, Andrew. He's got his own plane and has been flying for a good sixteen years. He offered to take my brothers and me out to fly around Charlotte... I'm not sure why, but that's ok. I just got back from it, and it was pretty cool.
I must say, I'm not a fan of small airplanes though. I had never been on one before, so it was totally new. I've never felt sick on an airplane before, but with this one being so small, I constantly felt sick. It still was really neat though... I'd do it again.
Here's some pictures:

So I got tagged by Matt. I haven't updated in awhile, so I guess this gives me a reason to.
Ground rules: The first player of this "game" starts with the topic "Five Weird Habits of Yourself" and the people who get tagged need to then write a LJ entry about their five quirky little habits as well as state the rules of this game clearly. In the end, you need to list the next five people who you want to tag.

2. I play with my ears a lot. That's something that I hate that I do, but I've been doing it since I was little...it's hard for me to stop.
3. If I walk by a mirror, I have to look in it. It bothers me that I do this too.
4. I always have a group of songs that I listen to repeatedly for a couple weeks...then I get sick of them and find a new bunch.
5. If I have homework or a project to do, I'd rather do it in the morning before class as opposed to any other time. I work better under pressure, and there is absolutely nothing that can bother you early in the morning (people coming to your room, AIM, other activities going on around the dorm/campus/etc, even TV has crappy stuff on if you're up early enough). In fact, I woke up the other morning at wrote a three page paper. I received a 97 on it.
I really don't want to tag anyone, but if you want to complete this, go for it.
( In other news... )
My to do list to complete before leaving:
-finish the powerpoint presentation
-pack
-clean/vacuum/and whatnot
-shower
-buy folder for sociology project and turn in (2 copies)
-presentation at noon
Haha, and it's 11 pm right now. Good thing I got a 3 1/2 hour nap today. ;)
