My Twenty-Something Quasi-Soap

yay! i'm back in Jersey, and I've never been happier. all of the drama that i expected to happen didn't happen with my family; it all happened in trying to get to kansas city and back. if one more person tries to use one of those wand-thingie metal detectors on me, they're a dead motherfucker! i got pulled to the side twice on the way home for a "random" security check. in cincinatti, the bitch went completely through all of my stuff. i was not pleased. and the flights were kinda sucky, but that's just because i don't like turbulence very much. correction: i don't like turbulence at all. but i'm back on the ground, i've caught up on my sleep, and i didn't have any classes today. yay! now i'm looking at my room and realizing that i left it in a total mess, and now i really have to get it cleaned if i want to be able to function for the rest of the week. tomorrow is wednesday, which is a good thing. so valentine's day....did it

rrraaaaarrrggggghhhhh!!!!!! that's how i'm feeling right now. i'm supposed to be all excited about our trip to Kansas, and i'm nothing but stressed. you see, my uncle is going to be installed as the new minister of a church, and it's a really big deal to everyone. my mom and my aunt (my uncle's wife) see it as a victory against my grandparents, mainly my grandmother. my grandparents expected my uncle to take over their church when my grandpa retires. they built the church from the ground up, and they were hoping to keep it in the family. so this whole installation thingie has just been fodder for my grandmother's endless guilt trips. grrr. the trip is a big deal to me because i'll get to see my baby boy cousins. one just turned three in october, and the other one was born right around 9-11. and i'll get to see all 4 of my other girl cousins, who make me feel old because i remember when two of them were born and they're now 9 and 7 (i think). my o

ahhh, the sounds of a sleeping andre. he's passed out on my bed and softly snoring away. we've all had a crazy week, between classes and rush week and a Craig David concert on wednesday. ....mmmm...craig david.....yum..... The concert was amazing and I rode the subway for the first time ever! i've realized that i need to go to the city more and get rid of my wide-eyed-suburban-girl look and work on my jaded new yorker look. i love going to the city. too bad it's so expensive and such a pain in the ass to get there....i'd be there all the time if it wasn't. arrgh.....my room is a wreck! all of my clothes smell like frat party! and i'm exhausted. oh yeah! i finally got my ethernet access back! i had to go to comp. services in person in order to get it done, but i'm happily blogging from my own computer again. *gasp* i actually started to go to the gym last week....haven't been back since monday, though. i said it's been a crazy week.... my foo
