There's not much going on in my life. I am pretty much the most boring student ever. I don't fit into any group and have no life.
I am thinking about changing my major again. I'm not sure what I want to do, but I feel as if I am being led away from the English major. If I knew where God wanted me, I could easily line up my classes to aim for it or get out of college completely. It's just so silly to keep fumbling around without any clue as to what I should do.
Even with all the confusion about my career, things are looking up for next year. I can hardly wait for summer to be here and over with. I will have a job that I may or may not keep for the school year. I will be in a different dorm with one of my closest friends as my neighbor. Hopefully, I will have decided on my major, and maybe what I want to do. I may even be co-coaching a cheer team! That is the best part! Getting paid for something I love doing is really cool. Now if there was only something more practical I could love doing, so college wouldn't be an entire waste. Also, I will be done with a whole year of college! And, possibly, Jessica might be around. That would by far be the best thing of all, but I'm not making any plans.

I got a phone call from "private line" tonight. I thought it was Jessica, but it turned out to be this stalker guy Jed, that I'd met at a wedding. I thought I had heard the last of him, but he found my number somewhere and called me. At first he was under the impression that he had met me at a bus stop, and that I had a nose ring or a lip ring or some kind of piercing in my face. I told him that I never went to the bus stop and I didn't know who he was. I knew perfectly well who he was, but most people try to avoid stalkers. Eventually, he started remembering this redheaded girl in a brown dress at a wedding. Said she was uber hot, and asked if I was her. I wasn't going to lie, but I didn't want him to know it was me. Just in time, he asked me if I'd been to a wedding since January. No, I hadn't, and that was my way out. This was where the conversation should have ended, but he just kept on talking, pouring his heart out to me, and asking inappropriate questions. Somehow, we got into an argument over the war and Bush and Clinton; he's a big fat liberal and I tend to take my parents' view on that. Then he started whining about women stereotypes and complaining about his relationships. He asked me some inappropriate questions about male body parts, and I straight out told him that I couldn't participate in such a discussion because, first, I was a virgin and could not relate to what he was talking about, and second, that the subject was totally disgusting to me.
Instead of making him decide to hang up, he thought that was very sexy, and then proceeded to tell me about all his girlfriends and his sex life. Finally, two hours and fourty-one minutes later, it was late enough for me to reasonably claim that I needed to go to bed. Jeez, it was strange.
I deceived him purposely. I told him I was a 5'8'' blonde with glasses who was slightly overweight, because, as he was trying to remember how he got my number, I saw he had an amazing memory for detail. I feel bad about lying, but he is so....creepy.

Well, I am in the last few hours of Spring Break 2006. It hasn't been spectacular, just restful. The farthest I went from home was 66th and West O. I have so much to do to catch up on my slacking.
The family behaved pretty well while I was there. Jennifer and I had a few spats; I guess neither of us are mature enough to have that perfect sister relationship. Kellie and I were a little better. As a gesture of good faith, I cut both of their hair today before coming home. It was the first time I'd ever cut anyone's hair other than my own. Jennifer was first and I think it turned out pretty well. Kellie is a lot more picky about her hair. I think I did a much better job on hers, but she whined about it. So now I've added a new trade to my skills, or something. I guess I used to cut my mom's hair, so the above statement of me never cutting anyone else's hair isn't true.
Thank goodness this year/semester is almost over. I am so tired of class. This summer should be busy and I can't wait for warm weather to get here. Dang all this snow!

I am spending the night at Sarah's tonight. All is good so far, no murder or unexplained accidents. I don't feel so well on account of my drinking three cans of pop today. Normally, I don't drink pop, but I sucked down a can of soda in less than two minutes. It wasn't even a kind I liked. Blah, I feel tired and my neck hurts from sleeping on the pull-out at my parentals'. So I went to apply for a job today, sorta, but my told me about another opportunity that would suit me much better. All I got to do is take a coaching class. Intrigued? Too bad, I'm not going to tell you!!!!

This time I was ready for her. Jessica called again today, twice actually, since we talked for so long that the system kicked us off. I was so good to hear her voice, and it made me realize that I miss the little isms that she does with certain words. She wanted to know all that was going on in my life, and then read me a devotional she had read. It had a lot to do with what God is trying to teach me right now. She made me cry multiple times, but once the seriousness was over, we started talking like best friends again. She still eats weird, and has developed a taste for cereal with hot milk. Nasty as it sounds, I shall try it because I try all of her concoctions. It's a good thing it's break, cause people in the cafeteria at school would look at me funny if I stuck a bowl of cereal in the microwave.
Today was perfected by her calling. I mean, it was the last day of school for a whole week, and it's gorgeous outside, and I get to pack (something I love to do), and my friend called me!! It doesn't get much better than that.
On a different note, I finally finished Boy Meets Girl. I started it sometime last semester, and have been reading infrequently over the last couple of months. It's supposed to be about courtship, but there are so many other good lessons in there. I feel like I have a lot to do in my life before I become seriously involved with another guy. I have never thought of myself as a mature Christian, but until now, I didn't really know what to do about it. I kinda thought one day it would just happen. I'm still not sure if I'll even know when I hit that mark. But I have a long way to go, and I plan to do my best on getting there. I won't be alone of course! I wouldn't make it if God wasn't there to carry me sometimes.
Yay, Spring Break!!!!!!
