October 31st, 2006
03:04 am - We're running circles in the sun... I haven't posted in a couple of days. Did I mention I saw the jealous one? Yea. I texted him Wednesday and said, "When are you getting into the city tomorrow?" He said he didn't know. I replied, "Oh, I thought I'd remember I had friends before my coworkers and visit one of them." He didn't have anything to respond. I wanted it to sting a little.
So, yea, Thursday, after I got out of class, I called. He was in his office. I said I'd drop on by. Got a text from the other party in the jealous thing. So I called him back and we chatted. I told him that Betta, the manager at work, expects me to wear a headband on Tuesday. I told him I was stopping to get cat ears. "I don't like cats," he said. I replied, "Oh, well, I was going for a naughty kitty, but ok... um, what should we decide?" So ultimately, he and I decided I should get the red halo. Like a fallen angel... haha. So not me. ;-)
So I talked to Nate while I walked to the jealous one's office. I said bye to Nate, who was on his way to Boston for the night, and met my jealous one. We talked for a while. It was really nice to see him. I had not missed him at all and I was surprised by how I realized that I hadn't missed him and how much I really did miss him. We had a really good time just talking and then I headed home. I went to work later on and got a call from Nate later that night. He was really drunk and I told him that if we were together, I'd pat his head for him. He said he missed me and he'd see me Friday.
I interned and worked Friday. Nate asked what we were doing later on and I didn't know. I knew I wasn't staying out late, because Josh and I were going on our trip the next day. I called Nate when I was on my break and he was still on his way back from Boston. He was a little snippy with me, and I jokingly mentioned he won't have been hanging out with me for like a week, he said, "Whatever. Doesn't matter to me." and I was highly insulted. So I quickly brushed him off the phone. I didn't go out after work.
Saturday, Josh and I got up and on the road around 1030. We went to see the old house i used to live in, a park in my old neighborhood, my old schools, the ecology site (has animals), and then out to Montauk. It was a great drive and we had a really awesome day. We went to see the Montauk Lighthouse too. It was so amazing. We went to bed early and didn't even care- we were just happy to be int eh same bed.
Sunday we got up, had breakfast, and went out to the outlet mall. Then I drove him to Orient Point, the end of the North Fork of Long Island. Montauk Point is the end of the South Fork. So he saw both ends. We also went pumpkin picking and apple picking. We got back kind of late and after such a full day, had a really lovely romantic dinner, and went to bed. We started out for home around 915 this morning, and got back around 1230.
I interned at 130 and when I walked in the door at 845, was surprised to hear my brother say something I should have expected. "Mom was saying some real mean things about you at Sha's (my aunt's nickname) last night." I just looked at him quizzically. "She said she didn't think you were really picking apples. That there weren't any apples where you were going... and that if there were, you were going to be bobbing for them." Like I'd have to freaking lie about going to get laid. Really, as if they haven't figured out that I can get it just as easily in Brooklyn as I can in Montauk, why would we spend money on the hotel? Do they really think I'd have to lie?! That shit makes me so upset. Why can't you fucking trust I'm doing what I say I am? What is up with that? Argh.
Anyway, I needed just to get out that upsetness. I just got home. I had a really relaxing two days and it was so swiftly ruined by bullshit.
Going to look at pics of the trip and get some rest.

08:48 pm - Just fiddling with stuff at home.... Found a pic of Josh from four years ago. It was one I believe I asked him to send to me, so that I had one. I cannot believe it.
I cropped and resized, and it is the picture for this entry. Doesn't he look just the same? I look at that picture and fall in love all over again. Gosh, I love that man. My heart swells just thinking about him.... <3
Love to all.

04:35 pm - Higher than the heights of what we often think we know.... There is no real point to my post today. I feel no anger, pain, sadness... not even bubbly happiness. I just feel.... Okay. Relaxed. Chilled. Inspired maybe?
I saw Josh last night. I'm glad for it. It was important for us to see one another yesterday and we got to do it. He didn't work last night, luckily, but was left depressed over the thought of a double shift today. One in Park Slope (YAY!) from 300PM until 1130PM, and the other from 1130 or whenever he gets back to East Flatbush until 800AM tomorrow. I'm sure when he gets out tomorrow, he'll go home and pass right out...
At least when I get home at 630PM we'll be able to go out together for a little until he goes to work.
I hope to hit the beach this weekend, with or without my boyfriend. I also am planning to hit the bars with Chris. It was so much fun last weekend.
I cannot wait until my brother gets home on Sunday. I cannot wait to see him!
Well, I think I am going to go. I think a light dinner is in order and then some excerising and plain old relaxing... Sleep is good too. Getting up at 430 is NOT my cup of tea!
Talk to some people soon. Outside of that, buzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz..... I think I'll let that trail off... HA!

04:06 pm - Quick question.... Just a quick question for everyone....
Am I a good person?
Please comment on this. Let me know if you think I am or not, and what you think I could do to be better. I take pride in being the best person I can be, but somehow I feel as if I am lacking lately. What can I do to improve?
I shall take no offense to anything you say as I am seeking an answer.
And if you know what's going on with me lately, then maybe you can lend some light to the situation? I'm lost.
Thanks so much. Jessica Current Mood: hopeful Current Music: Welcome to my Life- Simple Plan

11:24 pm - Fun fun fun Spring Break is fun fun fun.
Thursday- Homework Friday- Homework and out with Jeff, Juli, Dave, and Krissy. Saturday- Homework Sunday- Homework Monday- mall with Josh Tuesday- crap, movie night with Josh Wednesday- Homework
I got a birthday card from ym aunt today. Basically, the jist is this: "Well, you're 21. Now you can so the things you couldn't do before. But, you know, now that you are technically an adult, you don't get any more birthday or christmas or other holiday gifts! Love you!" A little backhanded? A little offensive? I thought so. Cate thought so. Eugene thought so. What do you think?
My birthday card from my aunt sucked. Christina and Ea thought my birthday was today. My dad is deciding whether or not he even wants to get me a t-shirt from the eagles concert next week. I WANTED TO GO!!!!! :-( I told him he should because he probably won't even get me a birthday card... he's thinking about it.
It's half an hour from Thursday. Hoping tomorrow will be fun. The girls were supposed to come stay over tomorrow.... but that got botched. My plans for Atlantic City are getting botched.
Nothing ever is how I want it to be. I'll still have the best time, i'm sure.
Blah. Can I go back to MMC yet?

12:50 pm - So... So it's been ok since I got home. Quiet.
I came home at 2 in the morning on Wednesday night/ Thursday morning. Everyone went to school Thursday but Zack came home early. Friday my dad had surgery on these lumps he has in his arms... Josh and I picked Zack up.
Funny story: Josh decided to treat zack and me to a McDonald's lunch. So we went to the drive thru. AS Josh reaches out to get the sodas, he realizes he has to lean a little more. So he does, but he neglects to remember that he didn't put his car in park, hits the gas, and drives away with his arms out the window holding the sodas. He drops them and they hit the side of his car, while he stops his car and backs up to get new sodas and our food. Zack and I are cracking up, as is Josh (although terribly embarrassed), and the woman in the ar behind him is laughing, and about 4 people IN McDonald's are laughing. The guy who was attempting to give Josh the soda when he drove off, however, was just looking at his empty hands with a quizzical look on his face. Amusing eh? Gives new meaning to DRIVE THRU FAST FOOD. LOL.
He went to work after lunch, and I got to the homework. I'm getting a lot done and it's making me very happy.
After 7 hours of continual homework, I abandoned it to go out with Jeff, Juli, and Dave. We went to play pool and had a really good time. Juli went home about 11 and Dave Jeff and I walked to Bally Bunion to have a drink. Krissy was on her way to meet up with us. We hung out there until about 1230 and then ventured out to Dunkin Donuts to wait for Josh to get off his shift and come home. He met up with us about 115 and we dropped Krissy home about 150. We came home to search for parking for about half an hour and I strolled in about 230. (I usually don't stay out that late when i'm at home, but it was fun.)
I rolled out of bed at 915 this morning, but napped on the couch til 11. Now the clock just chimed one... and i have to shower and hit the books.
BLAH!
But but but! It's 5 days until this girl turns 21! YAY!!!!!
Hope everyone's having fun at home!!!! Later. Jessa Current Mood: content Current Music: Ninja Turtle TV show

04:45 pm - It's time.... I'm tired and I have the perpetual 3 day migraine that plagues once or so a month.
It's time to go home and have a vacation from school. It seems to be that i'm not the only one who's noticing how desperately we all need a break from everyone around us.
People have so inaccurately pegged me and others in a certain way, and so I have been contributing to the LJ war in this sense. Well, the newsflash for the day is that maybe what you think you see isn't what really is going on. Sometimes shit happens and you can either grow from the experience, or live your life in the dark. I have been choosing to grow from my experience and let it heal in time. There have been experiences where others have not allowed me the time to heal, but that has subsided considerably since the last entry where I referenced this. Others should follow the same pattern. Heal your wounds and let the wounds you have inflicted heal. Take the time to get over it and allow the other person the same time.
Eventually we shall all be leaving our dear comfort of Marymount for the "big bad world" and some people we have met here will remain with us. Some will not. Those who you think will not stick around, don't worry about. Worry about solidifying the friendships you think will last.
Last semester gave me the biggest challenge I have ever encountered- the keeping of my own life. It put things into a new perspective for me. And please indulge me while I attempt to impart this knowledge to you:
There are people in your life, who've come and gone. Some will always stay. But you have to live for yourself and not for other people. Make your life as happy as you can. Do the things you want to do and let go of the silly little things. Don't sweat the small stuff. Life is entirely too short for you to do that. I realize that now. I am a mere 13 days from being 21 and I already know that life is MUCH too short to not enjoy it.
Please keep a smile on and forget about the dumb shit that goes on. If these estranged friendships are meant to last, then you both will come back to eachother. For now, let it go and just enjoy the life you live.
For one day, you will no longer have these feelings. You will no longer see the day, the night, the friends you had and have, the loves you have, etc., etc., etc.....
For me, for now, the bullshit of homework continues. Comments are always and forever appreciated for any entry written.

03:07 pm - hm I have not much to say today. It's Mich's birthday and I'm not letting anything ruin it.
I will attempt to check my attitude at the door today, but I am really not a happy person these last few weeks. I refuse to pull the bullshit LJ war. I'm not in the mood for it. If you have a comment or something you want to say, and it deals with me, my suggestion is the following: Come to me.
I'm not exactly a good person to piss off. I'm honest and, most of the time, up front. This is my up front. This is my message to convey to all that if there is something that you feel needs to be said to me, direct it my way.
I've had a lot of life-or-death shit happen and things are being misconstrued. I'm of the opinion that it needs to be addressed. And certainly not out in the open for all to hear...
I'm not being nasty or a bitch. I'm just up to my ears in crap that is inaccurate. I know the REAL story... just come and ask me for it. I hate having to rehash it, but since others won't seem to let time heal the wounds, why the hell should I?
Don't take this to be mean. I'm sincere in this. Just come and tell me to my face. Maybe i have a tidbit you don't...... or a correction to your misinformation.
Thanks for reading and heeding my advice. Jessica Current Mood: aggravated Current Music: Mad Season- Matchbox 20

03:39 pm - Blurb I'm waiting for the professor to show up for Research. Let's hope she doesn't show *knocks on wood*
Lately, I have been wishing that people would stop being hypocritical. I know everyone is at one time, but really. It's becoming extreme now. Stop playing games!!!
Certain things are not right around here, and I don't like it at all. Some things are wonderful, and others are becoming better, but there are just some things that drive me nuts.
I've been good and kept quiet. I've simply picked up and walked off.
I'm hoping things clear up and be the way they TRULY should be.
Outside of that, I just want to relax and have fun with my best friends. I want to spend as much time with the people I care most about.
I'm keeping my chin up for the moment.
I'm out for now... it's been 15 minutes and my professor hasn't shown yet. Later. Jessa Current Mood: grumpy Current Music: Chatter in Class....

04:00 pm - Some stuff A lot of things are bothering me lately.
I've been let down a bunch of times... by a bunch of people i care about, however distorted.
I'm not making it a point to discuss it openly, but for crying out loud, let me have my own opinion. I'm handling things quite well, I feel, right now, and I don't need a lot of shit.
I'm happy I've had a couple who have been very understanding and helpful at giving me the time of day, so to speak, and recognizing that some things are topsy-turvy right now. It's these select few that I appreciate right now more than anything. Others are too busy in their own worlds...
Pleas etake the time to understand that I am not out to annoy anyone or make anyone feel bad or anything. I just would appreciate a little understanding. You want to lean on me when you need to, and i'm willing to let you, but you need to please allow me to simply stand on my own.
Thank you for your KIND cooperation and letting me speak freely...
I'm moving on and forgetting about the silly things I've seen and heard today. Jessica

10:25 am - Thoughts are running..... Ok, so I'm bothered by something. I know I shouldn't be, and I know no one realizes this bugs me, but for some odd reason, it does. I don't understand.
I'm usually good about knowing things, explaining things, and understanding things. But human beings are one thing I can't understand. Not a positive for my deemed profession. I don't understand how things can go from one place, with safety, happiness, and security, and make a complete 360 over some years. Why can some things only apply to one and not the other? Why the hatred?
Some of you will easily be able to pick up just what it is I'm talking about. Others will sit in darkness. And I do apologize for you who have no clue or attribue it to something it's not. The ambiguousness with which I write this entry causes it to seem applicable to many situations lately, but this is simply not the case. I have one in particular, that directly effects me, and that's the one that bugs me. It has nothing to do with any of you; nothing to do with anyone here.
Unfortunately, I cannot continue this ambiguous thought. My studying calls since I have a test in half an hour.
I'm so glad my weekend was wonderful. A romantic getaway.... so lovely. Now it's back to reality. The dream of the weekend has died and the realization of yesterday's phone calls have returned to my head.

02:09 pm - ahhhhh So last night was really fun but anti-climactic!
Vic, Mich and I left about 5 to go to the city. We had.... JOSH GROBAN TICKETS!
The concert was awesome!! He sang some great songs, and Vic and I wrote out the set list... hehehe. I did that for the Incubus Concert. So I did it again- this way I can make a CD and call it my Josh Groban Concert CD!! It was really great just to go and see him perform. Ahhhh..... no words.
Then we ran 17 blocks in 15 minutes up to Wicked. We tried to see Robb Sapp, but he had already left by the time we got there. We don't think he got Vic's note.
Anywho- then back to school and bed. Anti-climactic, right?
Now, since the 'net is down, I'm in the library.... had to do a little research.
Good news: Josh got me concert tickets for Oasis and Jet! YAY! He's going to try to come with me, but if he can't, there will be an extra ticket floating. Still, I'M GOING TO SEE OASIS AGAIN! YAY!
Monday is quickly approaching and I'm excited....
For now, I am doing work and hanging out with my friends.

04:45 pm - Lenten Resolution I have a Lenten Resolution created for Mich and I courtesy of Jenn and Vic.
The Lenten Reolution is: Mich and I are giving up bitching about people behind their backs to our friends, for the next 40 days. We'll see how long we last. If we slip, we have punishments. Mich has to wear pink, and LOTS of it, for an entire day. Me, I have to succumb to wearing NOTHING that has to do with Josh. With the exception of my engagment ring, I cannot wear anything NYPD, anything he got me, or anything that reminds me of him.
In turn, Mich and I created Jenn and Vic's Lenten Resolutions. They have punishments for slipping too.
I'm succeeding thusfar. ;-)
I'm in research now, and I have already done the work we were supposed to do in class today. Now at least I don't have to pay any attention to what's going on. Makes life a little happier.
I get out in half an hour and then it's off to get dinner. Then back to my room, and finally, to visit Mich over in Gailhac. I think this makes her happy. She's not always in SJU....
Outside of that, life is boring.... I have work to do and no desire to do it.
For now, I should look like I am paying attention to Research.
