So definitely haven't written in a long time but i am not going to bother to try to catch up on all that has happened. Besides.....not a lot has happened anyway

Today was suchhh a great day, i do LOVE Fridays! It started out very frustrating because some idiot called me at 3 am and i was very startled. He said his name was mike and that he was in a sunfire with his friends looking for a Denny's. He then proceeded to ask me what i was doing. I was like, dude, its 3 in the morning! I am SLEEPING!!!! He said in a very drunken manner that "ohh woooooops, well do you have any friends that are awake??" I was getting so mad, plus i couldn't hear anything because his friends were so loud. I eventually just hung up cause i couldn't take anymore. I laid in bed and was just so annoyed. Finally i just prayed that i could go back to sleep and that this kid and his friend wouldn't be in danger or put anyone else in danger because of their stupidity. Finally after tossing and turning for 30 minutes i fell back asleep. Surprisingly i slept really well and woke up at 9:30....which is a huge deal because i am usually up my 7:30. So that made the day better. But what really made the day awesome was the dance class i got to take today. Believe it or not i actually took a Hip Hop class, and guess whats even crazier...your little naive white friend didn't do so bad. Just ask Julie she was there next to me. It was sooooo much fun and as the instructor said we were "now ready to hit the dance clubs." I don't think i will ever be ready to hit the dance clubs because thats just not my kinda place. It was still really fun though and i found that little piece of "soul" that was hiding deep deep within. None of you will believe it and i probably won't be showing it but it was a very fun time and will go down in the memory book. Jules we'll definitely have to embarass ourselves again sometime ok? Well thats all for my "exciting day." Till next time.....

Happy Valentines Day everyone! Hope your day is filled with love even if you have a valentine or not. You all mean so much to me and i am so grateful to call you my friends. Love you all!

your sappy friend,

amanda

Do you ever feel just constantly tired? I am just exhausted and i can't get over it. My eyes hurt when they are open and my body is just limp with laziness. Its insane, i wish i liked coffee or something, i just need an energy booster. I kinda want to go tanning because even though i have always been against it my sister told me this one point. She said that tanning is good for you in the winter because it releases "positive endorphines" but you should only go a couple minutes at a time. So i dunno. I don't feel extremely pasty but it would still be nice to have that nice "tan glow."
I found yet another reason why i need to move out...so i can listen to my own music whenever i want and however i want. Like today, every Monday i have to clean the whole bottom floor of the house in exchange for not paying my own car insurance. Even though i come home so tired i am still forced to do it, so to help perk me up, I like to listen to music while i vacuum. Its also my favorite time to dance because the vacuum makes a great dance partner.  So i was in the mood to listen to this good song called "She" by Ryan Cabrera, he's the guy that dated Ashlee Simpson. He is really cute and quite good. But because he sings about love my mom said it was against "our house standards" so i gave her the whole "well Mike is in the secular music industry and he sings about love, yet we listen to him." But yaaa, that didn't work. So then i put on MaryMary "Shackles" which is a fun song to listen to but because my mom was yelling at me about something, i missed really listening to it so i played it again. Mike was like, "didn't we already hear this?" So after it played I put on yet another CD. This was played to loud so i had to turn that down....so finally in my frustration i just called it quits and hurried to finish. My mom heard my exasperated sigh and asked what was wrong....i smiled and said "Just one more year...." She said "yaa and i'll be laughing the day you leave".....how nice is that??? I think they will miss me more than they think....the poor boys will actually have to do something around here and they all will feel the loss of little Amanda, often referred to as "Amanderella." Ohhhh woe to me....the life of a college student living at home

p.s. i just like to complain...its not really thaaaaat bad....im just a major drama queen and i am sure that you all can testify to that!

So today was a good day, except i am finding it sooo hard to wake up. Its weird because i could wake up at 7 to get ready for school that started at 7:30 back in high school but not its extremely difficult to wake up at 7:30 to get ready for an 8:15 class. Plus i only have to wake up that early 3 out of the 5 days. So hopefully it will get easier but i doubt it.
In my music class (which is the 8:15 class) its so hard not to fall asleep. We talk about boring stuff and then listen to music, which is fun and all but not when you have to respond to it. You can't just say "that was pretty" instead you have to say, "well i can definitely hear a strong underlining beat and it has a for sure 3/4 measure. The dynamics are strong but decrease toward the end." Ahhh drives me crazy. I said this one song was really beautiful and made me think of a huge cathedral because it was a Gregorian chant, meaning it was sung in a church to give it that echo sound. So the teacher is like "i hate that it gives that impression." and then said something about religion and how he'll save bashing it for another time. He said how he didn't like catholics or something...i was like, well first im not Catholic and second if your gonna bash religion than you have another thing coming to you. Why is it that professors think they can say anything but students can't have their opinions. Its like parents...they are NEVER wrong! Oh well....

So i had to work today and this like 30 year old was in my line and i asked if he wanted a bag for his one book and he said "sure do sweetie" then after i gave him a bag he was like "thank you amanda" TOTALLY freaked me out. I HATE having to wear name tags...people don't need to know our names. But i was most offended because i hate when guys flirt when you know you look really gross. So if i was looking really good and wearing a cute outfit then maybe i'd be like ok gross but at least he noticed (which is soo shallow but im just trying to make a point) but when i have just danced for 3 1/2 hours and im gross and smelly, my hair is atrocious (however you spell that) and im wearing a baggy sweatshirt and no make-up, it leads me to believe that guys just like to flirt. Does that make sense to any other girl??
Maybe im just weird....ya thats probably it :)
