Life is too short, so love the one you got...

so far summer has been pretty good although i would not really consider this summer yet. it hasnt been nice out at all and it is bizarre when chris is still in school and i am just hanging around. it's weird i have been home for almost a whole month and i feel that i have got very little accomplished and i absolutely hate that. i have worked 2 days and basically done nothing, my room is still a mess and will probably never be clean although i did join and am going to the gym which is very good. thank god for my boyfriend because i think i would be very depressed without him. i've decided that i have to try and come up with new things to do...although it is rather hard being in toms river, with a poor college student budget and the weather not cooperating. i just feel like i can't call random people to hang out cus i have no ideas. i miss seeing everyone almost everyday and just hanging around. i hope its just everyone working and whatnot and eventually we can work things out and go on adventures. i have been to numerous island league baseball games and am a faithful cub supporter, as is christopher haha. i miss sju and our fun times and the geek in me even misses learning, a little. i am in search of a rugby ball so i can teach anyone who wants to learn how to play, it's a lot of fun, plus i need to work on my passing for next year. u can tell i am bored because i am writing in this thing instead of doing something with my friends on a saturday night. i am going to california in 6 days which should be a lot of fun. i think i need this trip to get out of my mini rut. i will be building houses again..i love doing that! i am scared of the plane ride but i am taking drugs so i should be fine. speaking of drugs the place i am going to is called Weed, i know several of my friends will get a chuckle out of that one.

i thought this was so freaky because it has my bf's name in it and i love construction work haha. not even kidding...

the people from live journal probably hate me but i have come to accept the fact that i am just to busy. I recently joined the rugby team which is an awesome time. i have never been so black and blue and scratched in my life...but for those who know me that is always what i strive for. not only am i on a pretty good team but we are also pretty good drinkers which is also an awesome time. overall i am happy i decided to try something new.
i am supposed to be reading a thing on weed, california haha. i am going there for 10 days to build houses again. i love doing that. if my parents would be ok with me going into construction after paying for my college career i might consider a job in construction. its hard work but fun, and you grow really close to the people you work with and for. i hope when i am a teacher i will be able to take kids on trips like this because it is a really eye opening experience.
i love school but at the same time i cant wait for it to be over. i miss my family and friends and of course my boyfriend but more than anything else i am just tried of doing work and reading boring things. i plan on reading a lot of good books this summer so if anyone has any recommendations let me know.
i have decided that jen marsh and myself need to find a way to get on the style network show "craft corner death match", on the opening signs says "I knit therefore I am." that reminded me of kp's shirt lol. but anyway this show is like competing for who has the best craft under a time constraint...competitive crafting! that is definitely something i need to get involved in. well i cant think of what else to say and i have work to do so maybe i will update again sometime haha.

yea...i am tired lol. i am currently back at school and having a pretty good time. my classes don't seem to bad, a lot of reading but i think i will survive. i miss my friends from home and especially christopher...everyone should pray for him when he drives out here because we are both afraid of him dying. friday night we went to a pink house frat party which from what i can remember was pretty fun. for some reason i decided to drink 3 shots before going out and proceeded to have 3 more because people offered them to me and i didnt have to pay haha. apparently i can't pass up a bargain. this lead to playing of flip cup vs. the other side of the 4th floor and utter craziness. i talked to a lot of people and i dont remember what i said...always embaressing. but i'm not surprised. i'm sorry if i scared anyone especially my poor boyfriend. after this madness i did indeed get very sick. i think i forgot how to drink properly when i went home. yesterday i didnt feel like moving and actually didn't for the most part. until i had an interview for becoming an oreintation leader. yea...i am a dumbass sometimes. but yea i think i did ok, i hope so anyway. so now i have to go do all the homework i didn't do cus i was dying. byebye for now. <3

wow...who knew that finding a place to get sloppy on new years would be so difficult. the above quote was someone suggesting we go to lindz's old house which has no heat haha. it is rather sad when ur parties resort to that. a bunch of us wound up at bill's which was random but fun. chris came along too <3. it was an enjoyable night of watching the mtv white party thing and eating the like hundred cookies i brought. we woke up to the beautiful, musical sounds of dan farting. i am not sure if chris got a good first impression of my friends lol. but whatever im sure we eill have more crazy real parties at some point.
a little back tracking...christmas day = no fun at the hrycenko house. everyone except kevin (demon child) had a stomach virus. it was terrible. the one good thing was all day i sat on my ass and watched christmas movies...although i will never be able to watch the scene in a christmas story when ralphie's brother eats his potatoes like a little piglet. yea...it was bad.
on the 28th tracy, ashley, micheal, colin , and i went to the sju game. we lost despite pretty awesome preformances from chet and pat<33. but thats ok... i love our school games. THE HAWK WILL NEVER DIE!!!i go crazy everytime.
break has been awesome. im happy i get to see everyone, i really miss the posse, even though its a little confusing with who is the posse now. but thats ok...i was never big on being classified as hanging out with only a group of people. i just miss the old days when we were innocent and everyone got a long so well. like geni's murder mystery party when we had strawberry cake and tea. if i had not discovered beer i think i would be about 15 pounds lighter lol. o well...
tonight we are crafting and watching the oc!!! i am so pumped!! haha. i love the oc i have to call noriko and remind her to tune in..last week we actually joined the fan club..just cus we r awesome like that. i wish the dvds of last season werent so damn expensive..cus i would buy them for her in a heartbeat. maybe at the end of the year a bunch of us can get it for her as a going away present. i am going to miss my 22 year old roommate from japan. but yea crafting will be involed always a good time. if we had candy there too i think i would die from having to many of my favorite things at once lol. i plan on bringing a large bag of crafts and teaching dar how to knit..that is my goal for today. i love how mon don now has a knitting club! i used to knit on the bus going to far away soccer games and track meets for christ's sake. i would be the damn president of that club!! o well i will get over it. ok this entry is exhausting me i must be going...<3

yea i knew this would happen...i forget to update, well not really forget just am very busy. well i can't remember to man exciting things that have happened this month. well except for the part when i started dating chris <3, or eagle as he is affectionately called. i have talked to him for a long time and then i had a major crush on him and contrary to what i usually do i actually told him and even more miraculously we started dating last week haha...even though he is back home and i am here which kinda blows. yea we are weird i can't even describe it lol..but i love him and i miss him so much. this weekend was very intense i am not even going to recap...if u want to know details just talk to me. we lost the first basketball game i have ever gone to, so yea i was pretty much depressed to the extreme..i need to chat with pat and phil and the rest of the boys. lucky for them i still love them and always will. exams are coming soon which = me hating life the next two weeks. testing is dumb i think we should not have it. so that is all for now. i can't wait to see everyone i miss the hrycenko's and posse. byebye for now.
<3

p.s. i am on senate again which is very cool. i am looking forward to more good times. ok bye lol.

hello kids! the past week or so have been stressful but fun too. i am happy i am currently disease free and will hopefully continue on this way for awhile. after friday, during which i had a latin and philosophy tests (ewww!), we dressed in all white as angels. we were so damn cute i loved it. kyle came too which was fun, i hope he had a good time. i had fun fighting him. friday night we went to visit our buddy paul at the infamous barry hall were i asked ed why he hates me so much...he said he doesn't hate me he just didn't want to breathe the same air as me for awhile do to my diseases. that kid cracks me up. then we went out but didnt go into this party cus it was packed so we came back and went to sju till 2 were we danced to this cover band that loved me and tray cus we did out "love shack" dance hahaha.
saturday was the senate trip to the food bank that i organized. it was a pretty cool place and i think everyone got a lot out of it so it was good. then we went to this terrible diner that i of course loved. they did not have porkroll though which was pretty sad. tray and i are planning on cooking some soon, our friend katie never even heard of it before. damn new yorkers don't know what they are missing. anyway last night we dressed as angels again haha and kate/tray spilled red juice on me. it was pretty fun. the pants were julia's and spandexy so we could'nt put them in the dryer so we all got our hair dryers out and got to work. then we blew a fuse. good times. finally we meet up with some lacrosse kid named rob who is like in julia's classes and went to some party. it was fun, but i got soooo dirty. white costumes = very bad idea. i think i ruined julia's pants. sorry about that buddy. i made out with this kid named collin malone on the lacrosse team, i looked him up on the website this morning his profile was but his picture is not up haha. then his friend came over by us and was like " hey, want to have a threesome" and i was like nah. and then we left. i hope i never get so bad i get into a threesome with random boys. especially when something like 1 out of 4 people in our school have std's. that would be the last thing i need.
i get nervous when i type in this thing, like if my little cousin or nana click on the link in my profile lol. yes i talk to my grandma online. so i think i am going to take it out. thats all for now.<3

all i have to say is last night was awesome. i was so proud to be hawk haha. it started out after class tracy and i went to right aid so that i could by an insane amount of face paint stuff for the night. after we came back we went to dinner were this one cafeteria lady was commenting oon how noriko had a nice ass hahaha. it was hysterical, noriko couldnt understand this lady she was talking so fast and broken, hell i didnt understand half of what she said. kayty said that she was like "u should go to the club and she can dish out all the men to u, she got back" or something to that extent hahahaha. later with me and tracy and noriko meeting up with mary norcia and her friend brittany. joe pangaro was also present. i didnt not mention this but this was two hours before they opened haha. we wanted good seats. we wound up sitting around, brittany intoduced her self to pat carroll<3 because she knows his cousin. i was hyperventaliating at this point. so after two hours of waiting i got my free t shirt and bag but prehaps the best part of the night was we found out we have some form of tickets. i want a full season one but there was a chance i wouldnt get any but now i know i will get at least four, including villanova(ewwww!). so we r all chilling in the stands when try nd i spot phil martelli, thats right last years ncaa national coach of the year, signing autographs. so she was like what the hell lets go down and i agreed. so we go down with mary's hat and we ask him to sign it. now all i wanted was to meet him but several pictures we taken and as i am sure u can guess we both have new backgrounds haha. so then tray and i were walking around the court with the likes of pat, chet, dwayne, and jon. we cannot contain our excitement. we see my next door neightbor krista and decide to chat it up with her. she thought we were drunk off our asses, but we really were just so excited from just meeting phil and being around all those people we were just acting it. then we cleared the floor so the dancers and cheerleaders could do thier thing. then the lights suddenly went out and they announced the teams! it was so awesome!! i get excited just thinking about it. i didnt win anythiing but i could care less. all i know is my new goal is to introduce myself to pat because he is a nice guy and i have to get over my infatuation. i lost my voice from screaming so much. after midnight madness, which actually ended at 11 lol, we picked up so food at larry's and came back to mcshain. it ended early because this is tradionally supposed to kick off practices but they actually started last week when we were on fall break. phil is such an awesome public speaker, i seriously want him at my wedding. well thats enough for me i am so exhausted! only 32 days till the first game!!!<3

well this weekend and today and tomorrow was/is my fall break. i am relaxing for the most part. for some reason i am tired at like 8 pm here, i don't really understand it either. anyway tracy and i got picked up on friday and it took us like double the time to get home, thank god she made her love songs cd haha. i was singing my little heart out probably, no definitely scaring all others in the car. when i got home i went to the football game which was ok. i miss being there with everyone else, it was not as rowdy and obnoxious as it used to be. it was also raining and we lost so it was a sad day.
saturday i went on an adventure with paul. we went to the beach because i missed it. the water was warm but the air was so cold u would have become a popcicle when u came out so i refrained from jumping in. then we went to the mall and walked around looking at stuff. i bought a purse lol, pretty exciting. then paul and i went to rich's ice cream, quite possibly my favorite place on earth, and then i went home. overall it was a very fun day...thanks paulie! saturday night my parents went to this dinner thing at the island heights yacht club. i brought chris so he could do the pledge, eagle scout that he is. then we came home and watched our new star wars dvd and i took a nap. my mom comes in later and it turns out she got a bunch of milk spilled on her at this dinner, which i of course found hilarious, as did she. she smelled funny though haha.
sunday i went to church and then went up north to visit my aunt, uncle and cousins. my grandma and other uncle where in from ohio too. it was nice, they tire me out though lol. there are 4 boys ages 7,5,2, and 1 and they are crazy but i love kids so i have fun with them.
today i went to the orthodontist(hooray im almost done), then to target where they had an "animal house" t shirt haha. then my mom dad and i went to island cafe and to the doctor so he could check on my various skin diseases which are pretty much all cleared up now. then i went to the girls soccer game at old brick, that made me miss playing a lot. sometimes i wonder if i would have liked it better if i went to a smaller school where i could play but i think sju is awesome and i am having tons of fun so i think i made the right decision. at the game i got stung by a bee on my pinkie...if it didnt die automatically from stinging me i would have killed it, that little bitch! it still hurts! i came home and learned that my good pal eagle really messed up his knee so i am going to try and see him tomorrow and possibly bring him cookies lol.
tomorrow i also have to visit good old mon don to pick up my state champion plaque and visit some teachers. then i have to hand in my voter absentee ballot thingy. i still don't know who i will vote for. i hate politics. to complicated for me, i just wish someone open and honest would run, i would vote for him or her. alright i am going back to watch the yankee-red sox game. goodnight one and all. <3

well i was sitting here bored after an intense day so i decided to update. last night i was doing crazy things like walking around freshmen houses to introduce myself, since i am a freshmen senator and then i had to go to the project appalachia meeting so i could get the letters asking for money. i really hate asking people for money but this is a really good cause so hopefully it will work out.
then today was rough because i had 3 quizzes and 8 am class, but i will get over it. they really were not that bad, hopefully i did ok. i also got a letter from lindz today, it was so cute. she mailed me what i think is really the worst picture i have ever seen. i think its the day i left for college, that night we went chevy's. i was crying and holding my face in a way that made my eyes look all funny. i thought that was hysterical and i hung it in my room haha. she also sent me a headline saying "crafty bastards" i enjoyed it throughly. i miss all those characters i used to chill with, but i know i will see them soon. i almost forgot that i got a package yesterday from my aunts. they got me enough rolo's to last me 3 months. i also got a journal, pad of paper, a sweat suit, and other food. like halloween peeps. i never knew they made those. well after this crazy day i am going to do my favorite college activity...napping. which reminds me if u haven't seen the 10 commandments of college look it up because it is a really good representation of college life. peace out kids. <3 mary

i finally caved in and started one of these things. i don't find my life that exciting but some funny things do occasionally happen.
well first of all i am recovering from a skin disease called scabies. it's not fun...don't get. if u ever do get it though talk to my mom because she printed out enough stuff to like write a book. so this weekend i went home and slept, wrote a paper, went to the doctor, and ate real food. i think i needed the break. fall break is this weekend so hopefully i will get some rest and hang with some people and any members of the "posse" who are available. good times, i miss toms river and the surrounding area.
today i had to wake up early for a 8 am class. boy does it suck. it's even worse because i like the class, it is my major after all, but i am always half asleep for a good portion of it. College is a lot different then high school, it's really hardcore. but i am enjoying it. other then that i had three other classes and took a nap. then i did some boring work, and went to a 4:30 senate meeting. i am involved in college, just like at mon don. i am doing some cool things though, like during spring break i am going to neon, kentucky to build houses for poor people. i am really looking forward to it. anyway i had to organize a food bank day of service for senate and it should go well. i had another senate meeting, will not bore u with the details.
well thats it for now, goodnight everyone! <3
