I smell like you, and I don't like it.
My legs are so sore from the snow.
I miss my artistic ambitions.
All I want to do is chop my hair off again.
I'm missing one of my two maroon fleece pillows.
Wow, my legs really hurt.
I got some band posters tonight from The Well.
Merry And Pippin are gonna fall off of my wall soon! Must save them!
You are way too far away from me. Come back to TC please.
I am not tired.
Goodnight.

I'm sitting in an empty coffee shop. On the couch, there are 3 pillows that don't match the fabric they are laying on. The stage isn't cleared, the mics are still in their prospective homes without voices to make them useful. It's nearly 2 AM, and I'm exhausted.
4 bands/musicians played sets tonight as I hurriedly made many grilled cheese sandwiches and large batches of tomato soup for the giddy listeners in the audience. I spent a great deal of tonight making scrumptious coffee drinks and laughing with friends as I "worked" my 7:30 PM - 2:30 AM shift.
My coworker is cleaning up, as he is allowing me to rest as we close the shop. I was the victim of heat exhaustion near the end of the night, and he has kindly put on the soft and alluring sounds of Jason Mraz as I type this.
~~~
I work at Jacob's Well; a late night coffee and tea bar. It's a highly enjoyable volunteer position, where I get to sit around with friends, make batches of cookies and coffee, and enjoy the occasional live band.
Tonight, I was introduced to the band "The Photographers" from my town. They are incredibly kind people, and their music is so lovely and ecclectic, I could listen to them sing for hours. (http://www.myspace.com/romanticbandits)
They had their last show in Michigan tonight, and now they are off to England! That's so exciting!
I really look forward to Thursday nights, because usually it's the night I get to unwind and enjoy a good cup of coffee.

Hello dear readers.
It's been quite some time since my last post, and a lot has happened since then.
I will try doing a recap of sorts.
September came and left pretty quickly, I ended up not being a youth leader at church because I really couldn't handle religious responsibility with kids, since I'm not very good with them.
October was a very emotionally stressful month where I definitely experienced a big rough patch. I was diagnosed with melanoma, had a lot of deep feelings about many different things, and almost lost my grandmother.
But on a happier note, I went to a lot of high school football games.
In November, I participated in NaNoWriMo and got to about 47,000 words at the very end of it. I also started using my lookbook a bit, but only uploaded 3 different looks. I saw my best friend Laura practically every weekend that month, even though we lived in different towns, going to different colleges. I also participated in TWLOHA Day. I do each time. :) Also, Thanksgiving was super fun. To end all the craziness in November, I decided to try Black Friday. It was a jungle in the stores, but I loved it!
In December, I acquired many new cute hats, saw a lot more of Laura, watched both "A Muppet Christmas Carol" and "It's A Wonderful Life" for the first time. I got really into the Christmas spirit, ate a lot of candy canes, and walked through a lot of snow. I participated in the 2009 Project For Awesome and made some YouTube videos. I got to see a lot of my friends from high school, and had my annual holiday party with all the people I love. I also got a new laptop for Christmas! Yay!
And now, as January is upon us, we all go back to school, go back to reality, and try to make ourselves into newer, more polished human beings for the new year. I started that by dying my hair brown.
My only "resolutions" are to stay positive, and try reading 100 books again. Maybe only 75. And to blog more.

I've found that I really love spending time on my own.
I went out to Northport tonight, just because it is a stunningly beautiful little town.
I just sat down in the grass, and people watched. There was a family with three little girls, and they were having a late night picnic. There was a group of five boys, jumping off the dock into the lake. There were two men, having a chat while one fished. All I could do was just sit back and be thankful that I live where I do.
I mean, come on. I can see Lake Michigan from my porch. My town is beautiful, and everything there is to do is within a ten mile radius of my home. There are plenty of little shops, cafés, and restaurants. Many of these places offer live music on the weekends.
Speaking of my town, we have a film festival that follows the Cherry Fest each year. It was founded by Michael Moore, and it's becoming quite popular! Well, I've decided to volunteer this year, and get some experience in something new. I also thought it would be a really cool thing to do for my town. I think I'll have fun. I even get a t-shirt and a lanyard so I look all official and stuff.
Anyway, just a little update on life - I've been sick, but it's my own fault because I've been eating junk for the last two days. I still don't have a job, and I am starting to lose all hope for that. Lastly, I'm getting fish soon. I'm not sure what to name them, but maybe it will be an easier decision once I actually GET them and know what they will look like.
Hope all is well with you!

Hello to all!
I have been having some VERY busy, stressful, but overall happy few weeks.
We're almost done remodeling my basement living area... so now I have a fully functioning bathroom. It's actually quite pretty. I'm really enjoying it. Now if I could just get everything else back in place.... -_-
Also, I've been getting my sleep schedule back on, which is a big thing for me.. since I used to fall asleep at 5 AM and get up at either 9 AM for class, or on off days... 3 PM. That was an all time low for me. But now I'm comfortably falling asleep anywhere between 11 PM to 1 AM. And getting up at 9! Woo hoo!!
Last night was probably the best night I've had in a LOOOONG time. My friend Maple has an annual Dance Party at her house on Lake Leelanau. In the boat house on the water, in the top area, is where the dancing was held. All different kinds of music was played, from old to new, and from swing music to rap and hip hop. There was swimming in the warmest lake ever, and the sky was perfectly clear, and the stars were GORGEOUS and shining above us as we swam into the night. It was the perfect opportunity to let loose and forget everything.
I'm feeling wonderful right now.
In other news, my town is the cherry capital of the world. My town is also a huge tourist town. Therefore, Summer = HELL. We've got the ultimate Hell week coming up in about a week...
Cherry Festival.
There are going to be a bazillion tourists (Or as we not-so-lovingly call them... Fudgies) wandering around aimlessly in this town. And downtown is where it all happens.... Carnival rides, food, activity tents, concerts, air shows... etc. Good thing I live downtown. UGH.
Anyway.
I hope you all are having a lovely beginning to your summer.

Since I made epic fail of my BEDA blogs, I think I'm going to write a new blog now!
How has everyone been? I'm Okay, I've just been running around a lot lately.
First off, my uncle passed away last Monday. We had been expecting it for the last year or so, so it wasn't a big surprise... just a sad loss. He was very ready to go, and very ready to "go back home" as he liked to call going to heaven =)
He was a real inspiration to me, my uncle. Even though I hardly knew him, the few times I got to see him were a lot of fun. He's stubborn in restaurants, had a love for western boots and bolo ties, and was an avid, hardworking evangelist up until his very last day. I really love him.
In other news, I am eating a lot of chocolate and bread.
How are you?
