and then there are those days (like today) that you want nothing but to be with them. And that's what is on your mind, nothing but them.. and it continues till you can see them next.

Hello my friend we meet again
It's been a while where should we begin.. feels like forever
Within my heart are memories
Of perfect love that you gave to me
I remember

When you are with me
I'm free... I'm carelss.. I believe
Above all the others we'll fly
This brings tears to my eyes
My sacrifice

We've seen our share of ups and downs
Oh how quickly life can turn around in an instant
It feels so good to reunite
Within yourself and within your mind
Let's find peace there

When you are with me
I'm free... I'm careless.. I believe
Above all the others we'll fly
This brings tears to my eyes
My sacrifice

I just want to say hello again.- Creed


I'm grounded for about 5 different reasons, but ohwell. I'll live, life will go on as usual. I mean I don't have a life anyways. I work tonight, and then alot of studying to do. It's almost crazy how much, I have a world civ test tomorrow, and two papers due friday. Plus a math test. Oh, and I totally f'd up a spanish quiz today, my mind wasn't there so I couldn't study yesterday/today. Ohwell, I guess you get what you give in life. It only gives me more reason to work my ass off for the next.. 3 months till graduation. Keep thinking that arleigh.. *SIGH* I need to get some food.. I'll write more sometime this week.

You say that we've got nothing in common
No common ground to start from
And we're falling apart
You'll say the world has come between us
Our lives have come between us
But I know you just dont care
And I said "What about Breakfast at Tiffany's?"
She said, "I think I remember the film,
And as I recall, I think we both kinda liked it."
And I said, "Well, thats the one thing we've got."
I see you - the only one who knew me,
And now your eyes see through me
I guess I was wrong
So what now? It's plain to see we're over,
And I hate when things are over -
When so much is left undone.- Deep Blue Something

I remember when I was little, my mom always had 99.1 or 101.1 (alternative stations). That song would come on, and she would blare it and I would sing.. it was so great. I randomly had it pop in my head yesterday morning, and have been singing it ever since. Ohwell, so I guess alot has been happening, so much that it has turned into a buncha nothingness. Don't ask. I'm random and tired.. very tired. Going home and sleeping till Anand calls then we are doing something, and I'll sleep again till Kristen gets to my place.

Kristens game was great, they won by 17. Her mom and aunt were so cute chanting to get the seniors put in. What else happened today.. it was senior skip day- but I stayed in school ALL day so there! I had a two test today, which made my mind go numb for the rest of the day.. thank god I took off work today. Hmm.. I did the chill thing with Anand for awhile, before going to the bball game. We went to VW to pick up some paint for his car, don't ask me what he did cuz I REALLY don't wanna know. Umm... I didn't get a chance to talk to alex last night cuz she didn't get in till midnight.. and didn't want to wake me up... ohwell Anyways homework time.

I have been marvelling at many thoughts lately and I have this uncanny experience of learning how beautiful life is. Life indeed is so short. Oddly enough, it is much shorter for those whose lives they find meaningful while it is too long for those whose lives they find meaningless.
Now and then, I also ask what meaning has my life really. Often, I feel like I know but at other times, my thinking looks like a useless mental excercise. Life is just so vast, so full of mysteries that before I can put meaning to my life, part of it is gone and the meaning I try putting on it is already partly exhausted.
Life, so it seems. is like a dry sand slipping through my fingers. When I try to hold on to it very tightly, as if squeezing it, it slips away faster. But when I try to cast it away, it sticks on my hands. Sometimes, I think to appreciate life best, one has neither to hold on to it tightly nor to let it go carelessly. The sand in the hourglass is life. It is better to let it flow freely, although not carelessly.

I found that while randomly searching the blogs a few minutes ago. I used to think tons, reading my archive you might of picked up on that. But recently, I haven't had the time or energy. And it has made life that much more enjoyable. Not worrying what may happen, or may not. Life is life, you have to enjoy it and not take it for granted, but not try to figure out what the point of it is.
Thinking about life... I do feel bad about the whole thing with Annie, but I really don't have time for her in my life. Esp. the time I should be giving her, and feel like I should. I'll always consider her as my little sister, even if she isn't anymore. Like I said, I don't have time, or the piece of mind to try.
What else is happening.. tomrorow is Kristens last home game.. that's kinda sad. But I'm taking off for it, it makes it so I can't take off sunday for Alex's game- but I think Alex will understand :o)
Speaking of alex, I need to finish homework, and call her.

::listening to garth brooks!!::
ok i work today from 3- 930.. I'll write more after work. Ok? ok :o)
Posted by: Arleigh at 2:06 PM

Posted by: Arleigh at 9:33 PM

how sad, blogger ate a post of mien.. a long ass one compared to all I've wrote lately.
SOooo anyways, Georgia was a blast- short and a long road trip, but god was it great to see where I've been setting my goals on again. I haven't been there since i was 11 I guess.. but damn was it all I expected and more.
The trip was good, other then the fact annie has gotten on my last nerve and I've disowned her. And if another person asks me why!! Esp her. Some people aren' ment to deal with each other for long periods of time. For example becky deafenbaugh and I. We have come to accept it and move on with life. Well over 24 hours with annie is my breaking point. I felt like I was baby sitting her the whole time. I'm sorry I shouldn't feel like that with one of my friends.
As I've said twice I think, the trip was good. Savannah was great, and the college was amazing. How the school is so structured for the student- and how the graphic design dept is almost BUILT for me is crazy shit. I can't wait another day to go back it seems.. but sigh I gotta graduate first;o)
Tonight I went to dinner with the folks, always fun stuff. After which I went driving around for altitle while. Ending up talking to alex for over an hour, after she got over not being able to dial my number. Shut up it was cute. After which I went to borders to look for graphic design mags, then found anand driving aroudn the parking garage. We then went to Barnes and Noble/ Starbucks where we had a mini dtm mtg. fun stuff. After which I drove home :o) I like my after whichs so shut your trap.
Umm... oh I decided I want to goto South of the Border with Kristen for our road trip.. dont' ask me it's random and an odd spot to go I know. But hey have her come up with an idea, I'm at a loss right now. Oh and they won their game saturday, I think by alot.
I really don't know what else has been going on. I really need to work on my portfolio.... *sigh* Im going to eat.. btw did I mention how awesome talking to Alex was???????


Posted by: Arleigh at 12:36 AM

One is taught by experience to put a premium on those few people who can appreciate you for what you are.- random quote of the day. It was in Anands profile. So I worked from nine till seven today, and then came home to avoid my folks who are watching the super bowl. Well I'm not avoiding them... just trying to avoid the over priced commercial filled hyped super bowl.
Last week I chilled with annie alot, I think we are getting pretty close- she's getting more and more like my "little sister". it's actually kinda amusing. Knowing what Amber and Kristen feel like all the time. Friday night kristen and I also chilled, which was so totally cool since we never do anymore. With her bball and my school/work neither of us have time. It was cool, I showed her my speed demon driving, we went to taco bell, and barnes and noble and then hung at my house till like 12. I'm happy sorry.
Saturdya my car became an asshole and my key won't turn in the ignition, so i've been driving my moms car all weekend. Which SUX let me tell you.
