Friday evening I traveled to Fort Wayne with Chris, Britt, Adam and Jamie. We had a lot of fun. We ate at BW-3's, and I had this unbelievable Garden Burger and Bloody Mary. Then we went to Chris' brother's house and partied there a little bit. Fort Wayne has this club called Pierre's that we visited. It's 5 bars in one. They had this special going on 40 oz. Miller Light bottles, so I completely hit that up a couple times. In addition they had Hot Sex and Buttery Nipple mixed drinks in the little test tubes, so I bought a couple of those. Luckily the club had a van service, so that no one had to be the designated driver. These girls made fun of me in the van and called me gay, so I kinda lashed out on them. I ripped on their lack of education, calling them dumb broads and stupid bimbos and telling them that they'd be working at McDonalds for the rest of their lives. Yeah, they were offended and did I really win by doing this? Not at all. I must say though, I'm more inclined to be this angry and mean-spirited when I am intoxicated, so I should probably try to do a better job of limiting my alcohol. I said that the last time this happened, but man when I was at Pierre's, I just went off the deep end.

Saturday night Sarah and I drove to Fremont to see the Rocky Horror Picture show. The movie itself was incredible, so many unexpected twists and turns, and great songs as well. Even though it had no plot at all, I loved it. The cast that was performing along with the movie left something to be desired, but Sarah reassured me that there are better shows and casts in places like San Francisco. I think I will check out the one in Columbus, but I'm glad that I've been devirginized in terms of Rocky Horror.

I have a date with the library tomorrow. I'll be spending a great amount of time there because I have a lot to do. I can't wait to get it all accomplished, that will be such an awesome feeling.

In the love life department nothing is going on, and I really don't mind that there isn't anything happening. I am perfectly happy flying solo at the present time.

There's an internship opportunity that popped up for me. It really feels right, and like the position was tailored specifically to my specifications, so I will apply here in the next week or so and see how that goes. This internship would be a dream come true, so hopefully I can dazzle them during the phone interview.

I've decided not to come home next weekend for the Ohio Federation of Independent Colleges Job fair. I am just going to send resumes and cover letters to the two companies of which I had an interest, because I really don't feel like missing class. This also means that I won't have an excuse to visit Columbus till February 23rd (the beginning of Spring break) but these are going to be incredibly busy weeks academic wise, so I probably should stay here in Ada and keep busy with that.

I think the opportunities that are going to become available to me are endless, so I'm excited to continue with life.

the events of the past five or six days give or take a few

2007-01-22

So weekend was pretty fun. Had a date on Friday afternoon. That went pretty well. We had some coffee and chatted for a while, watched some football you know normal homo stuff.

Then I went to Kate, Jennifer and Toby's place. We trekked over to Don Pablo's to eat some fine dining. My fajita was really good and so was my Pina Colada. With the Slurpee I had earlier in the day I was extremely hyper by this point.

Then we went back to the apartment, drank more and played Never Have I Ever. That was definitely interesting. I said something I shouldn't have to someone in the process of Never Have I Ever, but I think I have amended the situation and I will watch my alcohol and sugar intake as well as what I say in the future so it doesn't happen again.

Saturday was interesting. Left KJT's and went to see my father. We had a six or seven hour convo/hangout. It was pretty decent. Got some sage advice as usual. You know how that goes.

Hung out with Jason. That was fun. We watched a couple movies and then made fun of this discount porn he had, lol.

Sunday I slept a lot and then had dinner with the mom, brother and sister-in-law. Dinner was delish. I haven't had lima beans in such a long time.

Following dinner we went to Vista church. It's this nifty new church that meets in the Dublin Recreation Center. I like it, it's much smaller then Heritage Christian, my previous spot of attendance, and the main minister isn't so old. He has a more fresh and current perspective on things which I appreciate. I feel pretty comfortable there, so I will most likely go back again on Sundays when I am in town.

Today was kinda hectic. Didn't do so hot on my Communication and Conflict Management midterm, so I'm going to have to really step up my game in that class. In Non-Western Music we watched the Buena Vista social club. That was a great movie. Very intricate study of cuban culture, which I definitely appreciate.

I had a pretty healthy lunch today for once in my life. It consisted of the following items:
plain spaghetti
Cheerios
salad with garbanzo beans
a banana
water

I don't feel as sluggish and crappy afterwards, so this must mean that I should make this a continuous habit. I will try to make it happen. That voice inside my head is back that says "go ahead and eat that unhealthy shit fatty," which is really good. I don't feel like a fat waste of life or anything, but it will let me know that I can make better choices.

I have decided instead of being angry about the whole guy I used to date situation, I'm going to pray for him. I'm going to pray for a less stressful life, continued progress for him and that he finds someone that will fulfill him. I think that's much better. I feel better about that. So yeah, there ya go.

I have to do this dumb audience analysis now for Persuasive. Oh well, it's not going to be too bad. Just a page of b.s.

really? are you sure? yeah...

Umm so we are sending more troops into Iraq???

I was having a discussion with someone about President Bush's speech. Normally he is so completely composed, and you he has this confident look on his monkey face. But during the speech, it was completely different.

He just didn't seem as sure of himself. And why could that be? Because he's trying out options that aren't necessarily the best, (in my opinion.) Before this decision can be made, there needs to be a lot more thought that goes into it, and he needs to consult more individuals in our government.

Two republicans spoke out against it, and I'm sure there is a long list of democrats that are protesting the whole thing.

People just keep dying, but are we really accomplishing our goal? Are we asserting ourselves as a country in power? Is this truly necessary?

I know that sometimes war needs to happen, but this one it all doesn't completely add up.

This one person in my Persuasive Speaking class is doing her quarter project on why we shouldn't be in Iraq. I don't have a personal connection to anyone in Iraq, but her brother is over there so of course she is a lot more emotionally invested.

I know being the President of the United States is difficult, and G.W. can't be absolutely perfect, but is this sort of decision the best thing for our country? I say...no.

my religious experiences...

2007-01-17

The answer is yes, I do believe in God. I believe that he created the earth, I believe that he loves us. I think that God has a plan for everyone out there, and we will all discover exactly what that is in time, hopefully.Laughing

But these fundamentalists that want to make the church such an exclusive place. What is the deal with that? "Love your neighbor as yourself." So just because my neighbor doesn't like individuals of my gender I'm going to throw them out of the sanctuary, just because my neighbor got pregnant at a young age I'm going to throw them out of the sanctuary. God's house should be a "House of prayer for all people." We all deserve salvation, and no one deserves the hatred that some of these religious individuals put forth.

There are open churches out there. And to be honest, what kind of person am I to judge another person's faith? If they are that devoted to their values, that is their business. If they want to stamp out certain individuals, they can do what they need to do right? Well, it's wrong, but these individuals have been going about their lives just fine for the longest amount of time, so obviously their voices are still being heard.

But for me, God intervenes at just the right time. He shows me that he is there. I just need to learn to be more open about other's strict belief systems. I need to be the bigger person in that department.

I wish I had more time to get involved in a ministry. School just sucks up a lot of that time. In the future, when I'm older and have a disposable income I will make more time for it. Maybe I can figure out a way to move my schedule around, so that it can allow for ministry or service. I will just have to see.

those things that you have when you get together...

2007-01-17

After careful thought, I think I am going to keep dating, or at least attempting to date. Might as well right? I have learned a great deal after dating each of these different people, in fact I don't think I'd be the person I am today if I hadn't dated all of these people.

For instance, through the last little dating experience I learned how clingy I was. I need to quit that. In addition I wasn't playing hard to get at all. I made it so easy for the person to have me in the palm of their hands. Also, I seemed way too desperate. I need to strive to put forth an image of confidence and pride in future interactions.

Although, I wouldn't mind being single. Work on some self-improvement, set some goals. There are many benefits to flying solo for a while, and contrary to what some people believe I am not a co-dependent individual.

Some people are so hot and cold though. One minute your the next thing since sliced bread (oh gosh I sound like my a grandparent saying that, oh well I don't care) and the next you're the piece of gum on the bottom of their shoe. Oh well, no one ever said dating was easy. You just have to pick your crazy a@# up off the ground and go at it again.Sealed

This blog service rocks!!!

2007-01-17

So one of my buddies on livejournal leaked some info to one of my exes, so now I've moved to this blog service. I think it's a lot better. I like all these features, and Shoutpost is a cooler name. I know, I'm strange, lol. Wink

I've been thinking about doing a study abroad experience in Ghana. I would love to just live there, and find out about the culture. We'll see what happens. I have some serious thinking to do in the next six weeks.

Registration is tomorrow. I'm pretty excited. I just hope I don't get closed out of my classes, cause that would SUUUUUUUUCK!

Trying to decide if I want to just be single for a while, or throw myself out on the dating scene. I am not sure yet. All I have been running into recently is commitment phobes though, which I dislike.

Went to the old psychiatrist today. They upped my meds, so hopefully that'll help regulate the old mood. I was pretty depressed all this weekend, but I seem to be taking an upward path as of today.

Management and Organizational Behavior Exam tomorrow. BOO! Too many exams! lol.
