Live, Laugh, Love!

This past week was one of the busiest I've had, but in a good way. Lauren and I went home on thursday afternoone because I had to go to Steph and Andy's rehersal dinner for their wedding. It was a lot of fun and Im glad i went so I didn't look like a fool, not knowing what to do. After the rehersal at the church everyone went to Andy's parents house. We had the most yummy home-made Greek food, Mmmm! Friday pretty much consisted of getting ready for the wedding: going to get my nails done, going to the mall, lunch with Lauren and Brittany Kelly, and hanging out with the family. Friday night Little Georgia and I went to go see My Best Friend's Girl. It was halarious and recommend that you go see it if you havent already. (Sidenote- favorite quote from the movie "Wipe the cobwebs off your cock and stick it!"). Oh Dane Cook is halarious! I got hit on by some creepy guy at the gas station that night also...CREEPER! Anyway, on saturday i woke up at 7:30 and was at Stephanie's house by 8:00 to get my hair and makeup done. It was a lot of fun watching and getting ready with the girls. When Steph was done and turned the corner out of her room in her wedding gown she looked like an angel! She was GORGEOUS! We took so many pictures I felt like I had the damn paparazzi was following me! The limo was awesome and we all made a toast before going into the church. The church was beautiful and it was decorated with flowers and candles that set such a romantic mood. When we arrived at the banquet hall we made our entrances and sat at our seats at the head table. I have been to Georgio's Banquets more than 1000 times, but i kid you not i have never seen it so beautiful. The flowers, linens, lighting...everything was perfect. We ate, drank, and danced our asses off! Watching Andy and Steph dancing and being together throughout the night reassured me that true love is out there and I cannot wait to find it! My wedding is going to be soooo much fun, I cant wait! Sunday before I left my parents took me out to dinner, it was a lot of fun and nice to hang out before I left. SOOO Lauren and I were off heading back to EIU around 8:00. Our car ride was entertaining as always and was filled with great conversation. Classes went well today for it being a monday. I had such a busy day. OTH was amazing as always and I loved it. After I watched my show Tony Recchia came over. LOVE THAT BOY! We had a heart-to-heart and got into some really good/interesing conversation. He can always make me laugh and put a smile on my face.

Tomorrow should be an easy day...nothing major going on...classes, homework, WEIU, etc. OHH Chad Chas is coming over for dinner tomorrow night, i just remembered. Yayyy im excited!

"I wanted you to FIGHT for me..."

RYAN CABRERA CUT HIS HAIR SHORT. MY BABY HAS SOME SPIKES AGAIN! SOOOO SEXY. You have NO idea how excited I am about this. Jenna was here to witness me freaking out when i saw the pictures! AND if that wasn't enough good news....i find out that Ryan was in GREECE. He was out partying with MY FAMILY probably. Why,why,why was he in Mykonos and I was not?!


***My Thoughts***


  • I really want to get one of the tattoos i want this weekend. Hmmm, maybe Dad could take me :)
  • I want something pierced too, something different that not everyone has. Maybe i just want something new really bad that's why I am so set on getting a tattoo or piercing, Asap!
  • I can't believe tomorrow is already Thursday. This week is flying by, which is a good thing because for some reason i really haven't wanted to go to my classes! Usually I dont mind them but this week I haven't been in the mood for them one bit. Im going home tomorrow after my Lab so I could go to a Rehersal Dinner for the Wedding this weekend. I CANNOT wait for Steph and Andy's wedding! I am so excited...I know its going to be ballinnnnn!
  • Love/Lust: Probably the most confusing concept in the world. Lately I have been finding myself thinking about it more and more each day. I feel so lost on this topic...I have so many questions that can't be answered- What am I doing with my situation right now? Am i heading on the same road i did last year? And worst of all...am I going to get hurt again? That's probably the most terrifying thought. I just wish I could say and ask everything I ever wanted, but I find myself holding back. There is a part of me that just wants it...wants it all...the happiness, the title, the petty fights, the memories, etc. A part of me that just wants to SCREAM Why can't we just do it and take a risk?! Reassure me that it wouldn't be a mistake if we did do something about it! Take away all my doubts and fears and just be there for me! Then there is the other part of me that wants to be independant and just enjoy my friends and family right now. I kind of feel like since I have been doing that for so long that I need a change though. Is having a significant other the right choice for me? I often find myself referring back to this quote --- "Trust noone but yourself". I dont know what I'm doing right now but I do know that I dont want to get hurt.
  • On a more happy note, I can't wait for tonight -> Wednesday night tradition: Dinner with Lauren, Jenna, and Lindsay at Thomas Dining hall ( mmm, thomas sandwhiches! ). Lindsay has this power over me...she always puts me in a good mood and everytime I am done hanging out with her she makes me want to be a better person. I love her!!!!
I leave you with this quote : "The only people you need in your life are the ones that prove they need you in theirs."

Live your Life!

My first post! I'm excited to start this blog, it will be nice to have a place to express myself and my thoughts or even just to share my day with you.

I thought a good way to start my first post is to talk about my weekend. It was so much fun and went by way too fast! I love my family and friends SO much! On Friday Lauren, Melissa, and I got ready and packed our stuff for the weekend, not before attacking Jenna with hugs and kisses before she left to go home though! She wasn't going to be by our side for one night and we acted like we werent going to see eachother for weeks! Anyway, the girls and I got ready and headed to NIU for the night to visit Petros. We were all really pumped to go there and see how it was to be staying in a frat for once. I had never been to NIU before and i had a blast! When we got there Petros met us outside and escorted us into his frat- Phi Sigma Kappa. The house was really cool inside...we got a full tour and got to see how the boys decorated their rooms because everyone just kept their doors open and didn't care who came in and out. By the way, each room had their own bar given to them...how cool is that?! All the people we met that night were really nice and outgoing. It was cool to see the boys though- Petros, Jeremy, Anthony, Nick, and Bill. I love those boys! That night the frat was having a party. It was a lot of fun--- everyone just keeps their doors open and walks around in eachother's rooms and parties in the hallway. We all had a lot of fun dancing, playing card games, drinking, and talking. Even before that though the fun began with my girls! The car ride was halarious between singing and flirting with motorcycle boy! We only stayed over one night and I wish we could have stayed the whole weekend! It was nice going home though because i got to see my brother who i havent seen in forever! My parents were in FL so we had the house to ourselves! My aunt had Dean and I over for dinner with the family and my Yiayia and Pappou...it was a lot of fun to hang out with them for awhile. After dinner Steven, Melissa, Lauren, Chris, Jenna, Georgia, and I went to Chilis and had dinner. I miss being all together and hanging out, but then again i love school! I feel grateful to say that i get the best of both worlds by having a good time at school and at home. After dinner we all went back to my house for awhile and had some beerskis and played cards. It was a nice chill night with some of my closest friends! The next day i basically just hung out all day and picked up the girls around 5:00 to go back to school. I love coming home to this apartment and feeling like it truely is my home. I love the feeling of independance and living with the girls...they are the best!

Today wasn't bad for being a Monday...there were some up's and down's dont get me wrong, but at the end of the day all is well. One Tree Hill was amazing, I got to hang out with Shelby (LOVE HER!! )and Lauren cooked some kick ass dinner for us (thanks laur!). Now I'm just hanging out and need to start reading my Communications book for class, "BOOF"!
