P.S. Happy Birthday to my sister! :)

My Phi Sig Pi sweatshirt finally came today. I waited a month for it to come, and I was very excited to see it. It's not bad for the 40 something I paid for it.

So tomorrow night I'm going down the shore with Dustin which should be a lot of fun. He informs me that he is throwing me in the ocean, however, I think that he has another think coming. Whatever that means. LOL :) Oh well, I hope everyone has a good Memorial Day! :)

I think I am no longer going to read certain people's webjournals. There will be a select few that I will read because they can actually type words in English. None of all that "mah" for my and shit. It's driving me crazy.

Also, why do people call their boyfriends their hubbys? Umm...no. Unless you have a ring on your finger and a certificate in your files, you are not married. So STOP SAYING IT!!!!!

This message has been brought to you by the Association for Beth's Sanity aka ABS. Eat your heart out Dar Williams...at least mine makes "a good acronym."

I realized today that playing with Play-Do is kind of like playing God. You are given this lump of matter and you are supposed to create something out of it, be it good or bad. To have that kind of power is amazing. That's my deep thought for the day.

I made a turtle.

So today I met with my advisor to declare my major as psychology. I went over the classes that I have already taken, and most of them fulfill my College of Liberal Arts requirements, and core requirements so that means....drum roll please...I will be done my major classes by the end of Junior year. Yes, I said the END of Junior year! I know, Temple has a habit of screwing people over, but I think I can outsmart them and keep track of my own shit. Because Temple students...they're just smarter. Ten points for the use of the now cliche television commercial.

Anyway, that requirement only fills my major classes. I still have some CLA classes to take to graduate, but I figure I can minor in something, and take all my minor classes in Senior year. So I'm not graduating early, but on time, and that, considering I attend the lovely Temple University, (a school that has THE BEST five year bachelor's program) is an accomplishment!

Thank God for A.P. tests.

I think I'm going to rename myself Buttercup. Everyone from now on will refer to me as..."Buttercup." Haha, just kidding. But I did just finish watching the Princess Bride, my favorite movie ever! Today was tiring. I rode the African Queen to work, and then worked the whole time I was there, only to ride the African Queen home. It took an hour to get home, which blew, but I will survive.

100 Years
Five For Fighting

I'm 15 for a moment
Caught in between 10 and 20
And I'm just dreaming
Counting the ways to where you are

I'm 22 for a moment
She feels better than ever
And we're on fire
Making our way back from Mars

15 there's still time for you
Time to buy and time to lose
15, there's never a wish better than this
When you only got 100 years to live

I'm 33 for a moment
Still the man, but you see I'm a they
A kid on the way
A family on my mind

I'm 45 for a moment
The sea is high
And I'm heading into a crisis
Chasing the years of my life

15 there's still time for you
Time to buy, Time to lose yourself
Within a morning star

15 I'm all right with you
15, there's never a wish better than this
When you only got 100 years to live

Half time goes by
Suddenly you're wise
Another blink of an eye
67 is gone
The sun is getting high
We're moving on...

I'm 99 for a moment
Dying for just another moment
And I'm just dreaming
Counting the ways to where you are

15 there's still time for you
22 I feel her too
33 you're on your way
Every day's a new day...

15 there's still time for you
Time to buy and time to choose
Hey 15, there's never a wish better than this
When you only got 100 years to live



This song makes me cry. Its kind of like when I had that epiphany in IH class that someday I am actually going to die. Then I started thinking, that even if I die at the average age for women (which I think is like up to 78 or 80 now) that only leaves me 60 years. That's only three and a third more 18 year periods! Then, I realized I was thinking too much. I think I realized my mortality and it was scary.

Dustin will be happy to know I finished the last episode of "Felicity-Freshman Year" today. Watching it makes me think about a lot of things that happened in this past year. When I think about where I was this time last year, I think about how much has changed in my life. I've lost a lot of people along the way, one in particular that at one point in my life was a central figure. But I figure we live and we learn, and life goes on. That's all a part of life--losing people along the way. We also gain people too--people that could possibly be the love of our lives. I'll leave you all with those words of wisdom today. God, why does Felicity always make me start thinking deeply about the "meanings" of things?
