| As much as I've enjoyed xanga, it seeems only to be one more thing to keep up with. I think it would be in my best intrest to end my membership to this site and find other ways to keep in touch with all of you. Right now, my schedule is kind to me if it allows 2-3 hours of sleep at night, and my passion and desire to write wears thin, Hopefully, I'll talk to all of you soon. Take care & God Bless. | | |
| FYI: I'm back home in Leavenworth now and am trying to get my computer back up and running (and as far as I know, it still won't connect to the internet). I have been trying to hit libraries, every net ready computer I see and my Dad's laptop when possible to keep on top of everything, but it's not an easy task, mind you. I have a meeting at KCKCC tomorrow to discuss readmittance, and trying to get everything ready for yet another (but much smaller caseload) semester at MNU - semester 10 of college, semester 8 there. I'm just glad to get a break from school - this was one of my most grueling semesters left, and although the fact is I am about 15 or so credit hours short of graduation, the light at the end of this tunnel is very dull.I'm just trying to hold on for a bit longer, but my motivation has been long gone for awhile. Also, I am roommate free as well - Back when I left for college, I was so uberexcited about not only having a roommate and living in the college dorms, I was getting TWO new friends to live and share college life with, having all brothers and wanting to make lots of new friends. Now, I hope Brianna enjoys having our room to herself, and I'm happy to be out of the college residence life. I'll miss it, I know, but I couldn't take that life anymore, and I defiantly couldn't deal with Bri's crap anymore either. However, I'm already starting to rethink this moving back home think - I wasn't harassed enough by phone, and now I have come back to receive it to my face? *sigh* And it hasn't even been a week yet. I will seriously try to be on here more often, and take care of all my other net stuff. I need to get Christmas Cards out still, and I'm still trying to get addresses from everyone. Sorry to rant.. I'll hopefully talk to everyone soon - and hey, if you have my number, give me a call sometime, being back home is just as lonely if not more. Take care everyone, God Bless, and if I'm not able to get on her for awhile, have a Merry Christmas! ~Ashley | | |
| Song of the Day: 15 Minutes of Shame by Kristy Lee Cook Thanksgiving and Black Friday have come and gone.. but I guess just for the sake of doing it, I'll say a few things I don't mind showing gratitude for: 1) The grace of God - for keeping me somewhat sane lately, and truly knowing that as I constanly feel very alone in this world these days, I will always have him 2) My parents and brothers, although getting along with two of those people lately isn't working out the best. They still have my back financially and otherwise despite everything I've been dealt over the past few years 3) Constant oppurtunity and endless ways to keep dreaming big in the world I will add to this post gradually, but right now, here's some really big news: I will be joining the College Commuter Club next semester, and will be at MNU part-time and will be going back to KCKCC - LV for evening classes. There are very few classes left for graduation, but they only offer those here every other year, so yeah. Hopefully things will look up this way. Hopefully. I'm going to go for now. Leave comments, love and your mailing addresses - I lost my jump drive a few months ago and lost of my contact information. Take care & God Bless! | | |
| Song of the Day: Rest In Pieces by Saliva (While I don't love the CW's programs, I love the music they use in them!) And since the album hits stores Nov 18th: Light On by David Cook Wow! Xanga you are a site for the sorest eyes! I have thought to myself 'I should blog' for months on end now, but the net connection in my dorm room doesn't work and it's hard to actually sit in the library for very long and find time to time to write.. I'm forgotten much of what I've wanted to share after all this time, but I'll fill you in where I can. - I have been 23 for 17 days. It was very modest - lunch out with the family and I also made brownies for radio class.
- My radio show is just on Monday nights now, 7-9. I have also picked up a great co-host, Stev. Please listen in, as always. You all missed a great political debate and interview with Oh Blessed Thought this week.
- A most of you probably assumed, I am not happy about the results of the election, but I did my part, and I went out and voted. I've cried and screamed and prayed and have to turn off the TV and radio right now when that man speaks or is mentioned, but I'm praying and trying to remember that the Lord has a plan and appoints our elected officials, and that he'll keep us safe. And I'm hoping that Obama surprises us in a good way and that Palin still runs in 2012. Hopefully, there is still hope. I would love some good news
- And on to an election that doesn't matter as much, but I was very sad to see Susan Lucci leave Dancing With The Stars last night. Now I can watch her even more on All My Children!
- I saw High School Musical 3: Senior Year last Saturday, and I was impressed. It gave HSM2 no purpose, but it followed the first one very nicely and was very well done. I can't wait for Zac Efron's film 17 Again in April! There will be many netflix movie reviews to follow. I've seen a lot, but I'll do that on a later date.
- For a little over a month (back in September, and early October) I thought there may have been a chance I wasn't destined to be an Old Maid - an ex from high school came back to town and we were hanging out and "seeing" each other. But I was wrong to feel special because I was being used and was the only one who saw a glipse of hope - and before my birthday, he took off, and has been missing ever since. Boy, do I know how to pick 'em. And I was thinking postponing that Homecoming Banquet to a Winter Formal was a bad idea. Maybe I might still be able to go - with someone - for the first time since college.
- Since I am full time at work now since I need the benefits, that means I have to work full time, which isn't a huge problem except working 36 hours at night is hard when you're trying to do well in school right now - which I am also failing at - and I'm down to 10 credit hours. I have lost a lot of my motivation..
- My roommate Brianna and I are still as distant as we were when we moved in together in August - I have tried inviting her to hang out, bent over backwards to be nice and have now given up. I know no nice way to stop her snoring though - and this is worse that my Dad's ever was - I need some breathe right nasal strips for this chick - and now. I have to sleep in the prayer room most of the time now.
So, as you can see, I could use a bit of good news these days. I don't see how no news could ever be good news, but If anyone has something great to tell me that would make even a light at the end of the tunnel seem dim, hit me with it, I'm ready. Hopefully, I can blog more often, even it's just to say hi. I've missed it and you all. Please leave me lots of comments and love. Take care and God Bless! | | |
| Song of the Day: One Life To Love by 33 Miles Okay, I attended Rock The Light last weekend and kept thinking of various things to blog, but lack of a PC makes life hard for a journalist, so I will talk about it on my radio show instead, so yeah, here ye, here ye!
