The new Tenor!


Well, after a day of running around like an ostridge with its head cut off, Monday was a kinda fun but especially chilly day. From English to Geography to Theory to Piano, it was quite boring. Marching band rolled around to only bring the chill to my fingers and toes. We reviewed drill for the football game saturday then went over to CPFA (Center for Performing & Fine Arts) building to play through the Band-O-Rama concert coming up this sunday! I'm pretty excited. I'm also kinda sad that its the last football game. I feel like I only played at two games, but really I do believe we played at five home games and acouple exhibition performances and shtuff! But yeah, I'll miss it a bunch. This morning was alot more time consuming than it normally is. I woke up quite early (6:40), showered, did my shtuff and had theory at 8:00 then following theory I normally can go back to my room and nap, eat or something lazy like but since CMF (Contemporary Music Festival) is during my lesson time on thursday we had to place my lesson time at 9:00 right after theory. Fun shtuff! NOT! After theory I went down and got a pad on my Clarinet repaired and while doing that (the reason for the title) I gotz a new Jupiter Tenor Sax for marching band and basketball band!!! =) =) I was sooo excited when Kelly (intrument repair lady) apologized for the old nasty Tenor Sax that I got stuck with and she said that an order of about five or six Tenor Saxss' came in and that if I wished, I could exchange the old nasty hunk a junk for the brand new one. I was REALLY happy about it! She opened the case and out came the smell of a new instrument. The Tenor was still wrapped in plastic and everything was all nice n tidy! I haven't been that happy about a new instrument since I recieved my Bass Clarinet. I know, BAND GEEK! I dont care! =P I love it! =) Thats it! Thats been my day! Now i'm loafing around contemplating if I want to start on my english essay thats due Friday or not! I dunno! We'll see. TTYL!!!!! =)

The crows! AHHH!

So I wake up with my head at the foot of my bed! Wierd enough as it is, I not only wake up there but I wake up to my face right next to my 6th floor window making me feel as though I'm just dangling from the window itself. To add to the hightened scare of my body falling out of the window, there are a rediculous amount of crows flying right infront of my face! I do believe its crow season! =P ... It scared the poopers outta me. I jumped up really quick to almost fall outta my bed (its lofted)!! Then I slowly roll onto the floor to glide up to my desk to see crows still flying at the window! AHHH!
After that, I sit here at my desk, watching them flying around everywhere, falling to the ground with eachother fighting for food! I wish I had a gun er something. Although, I can't kill ANYTHING, these birds are just annoying! Then you go outside to walk to the commons to get soemthing to eat and they ATTACK you! BAH! Oh well.. Its time for me to go out and try and make my way to the commons and get some food. =P Hope everyone is having a fabulous sunday! =)

Fun filled night!

Well... Tonight was a new experience. My first ever college basketball game. EVER! I've always watched them on TV as a kid and for its always been the entertainment of the family on Thanksgiving day or Christmas day! Tonight I played with both the Blue and the White band. It was definetly something different! I'm not used to "my" band jumping and screaming and having fun! I'm used to them sitting down and taking pictures and eating and only a few people actually cheering and making the band look semi-good! Today, with ISU Basketball Band(s) was ALOTA fun actually. I no longer have a voice though with all the yelling! Love it! Well, at least both of the teams won! I'm used to womans team winning back home but most definetly not the mens! =P Today was alot of fun to say the least! =)
Its finally starting to get chilly and I like it! It was sprinkling when I was walking home from the game and I could only wish how much it was snowing. Alittle wierd and retarded some people think but... OH I want it! The snow that is! lots of stuff to get done. English paper still to write as well as to study for Sociology exam for monday! *hurls on book* .... Oh well.. Talk to you soon! =)

Its game day!

Its GAME DAY! *wahoo* I woke up about 2 hours ago and am now loafing in my floor lounge! My flight is booked for Baltimore, Maryland. YAY! My plane departs from Indy @ 9AM Tuesday November 25th. I'm sooo excited I get to be with my baybe! =) I'll be over there from 4PM Tuesday the 25th til arriving home in Indy at about 4PM on Monday December 1st. I sooo can't wait! It'll be amazing fun!
Schools treating me okay so far. Some friends haven't been much of friends though lately, but its okay, life isn't perfect! Oh well.. We all keep on living! Todays just gonna be one of those *BLAH* days! I have both Womans and Mens basketball games tonight so, boring busy busy! =P I'm not going to list off anonymous things about certain people in my life making you have to guess who they are. People know who they are and what has happened and/or needs to happen in our lives as friends or family! This blog isn't up to the best gramatical standards of certain people but I like to just have free flowing blogs as it is, as you can see from my past blogs. But ... I have stuff to get done: eating, bathing, getting into basketball band attire =P, and just some other general shtuff to get done. PLUS, the boyfriend just called so.. time to letcha go! I'll leave you with one of many of my favorite friendship quotes:

"Don't walk in front of me, I may not follow.Don't walk behind me, I may not lead.Walk beside me and be my friend."
-Albert Camus

We're back =)

Its dark and chilly out, but that doesn't keep me from being one of the happiest boyfriends on earth. Well, maybe not on earth, but in a far away galaxy more or less. Its the saturday after Halloween. Trick r' treaters, candy and lots of fun with the family. Another Halloween done and gone. But the good thing is, is that i get to wake up to the sound of my boyfriend of 10 months, voice!


A long time ago, a young beautiful man by the name of TJ Sanders was just browsing through people on Myspace. Not knowingly, he scrolled through his future husbands profile to only click on the "ADD ME" button to get an accepted notification a couple hours later. TJ and I started talking to eachother through myspace comments and messages about a year ago around this T hanksgiving. This New Years will be our ONE YEAR "anniversary." Today is our 10 month "anniversary." =) I can't wait to say 10 year wedding anniversary!!!



TJ has opened my eyes to many new and fabulous people, along with ways of life and passions to become aware with. I am very thankful to have this beautiful boy in my life. Many people know him, some dont. Those who dont, hopefully will soon meet him and find out all of his phenominal qualities. A great personal friend along with a lifetime full of joy and giving we both have incommon. We have come to realize how madly in love with eachother we are and plan to be together, during/after college, moving in with eachother and live long and sucessful lives. I love him dearly, and him me! He came to Terre Haute about a month or so ago not only to see the campus but me as well. I was ecstatic to see a text message saying "I'm in Terre Haute." We had only drempt of that moment for 9 months at that point. We both never thought that that day was ever going to come true. With TJ being by my side, walking through campus at night, stars lit up in the sky and a cool breeze blowing past our faces, all i could do was smile and tear up to the thought of this actually being real! Our dreams came true that day. We both have a little piece of eachother that we have on us everyday to remind us that we can only be happy, together. This emblem that we have to signify our love together, hags around our necks. The Ying-Yang. TJ has one side, i have the other. It can't be an official Ying-Yang without both sides touching. We are beyond meant to be together! =) We're in love! Oh, AND... alil more update, i'm going to be flying over to Maryland (his place) for Thanksgiving! YAY! =)



School ...
This year, as a freshman in college, has been actually pretty good. From getting back together with the love of my life, to getting better grades than two years of high school combined. After all my past incidents such as:
1. Getting arrested for drinking with Jade and Kia. (Nov. 2007)
2. Being put on probation for drinking with Jade and Kia
3. Writting an apology letter for the arrest
4. Having to do 30 Hrs. of Community Service
5. Having to take the PRIME course
6. Being kicked out of the musical for no apparent reason
9. Almost cutting my right pinky finger off =(
10. Other things that I can't precisely think of right now
11. Didn't go to winter formal =(

There were some good things though from this past year:
1. I got a my baby back =)
2. I was the Drum Major of the CHS Marching band
3. I was able to march in the Indy 500 Parade
4. I permanently am keeping my hair nice n short =)
5. I went to Disney Gay Pride
6. I am attending ISU =)

Things are changing though in our world and times. Another topic that I could bring up would have to be politics and what might happen soon in our world. I honestly DONT CARE! I'm gonna die some day anyway =P... If i were to have registered in time and have been able to vote, i more than likely would have voted for Barack Obama. Mainly because i agree with alot of his views. thats about it though! Oh well.. =P

Well.. you have been updated on my school, family, and love life. I think its time to head out! My baybe is marching in a parade and did his SATs today. I hope he did good =) ... Love my boi! =) <3

Time to head out and relax summore...
I'll update ya sooner than i have been about things since things will be changing ALOT soon! =)
Have a goodnight...

What they say

"People may doubt what you say, but they will always believe what you do."

This relates today to what people have said about others, to only create drama. I have found that http://www.blogger.com/ to be a big emotional diary for me to express my feelings.

Lately, I have had mixed emotions on college, workforce, moving/relaxation or Air force. I have finally made up my mind. I will be staying in Indiana close to my drama filled family and friends along with being close to my boyfriend while going to Ivy Tech College in Lafayette. This is a big leap for me but as for moving and putting that big of a difference on my life would place so much stress on my shoulders. All of what I mentioned has related to the quote you read at the beginning of this blog. People never believe when it comes to me actually doing things when i say them. When those things actually do happen though, it all gets shot back in their faces. With life flying by so fast, we haven't really any good time to be good friends with people, therefore, we all have much more people to be with than just one certain one unless its the relationship. Agree or not agree, this is my opinion.

Organization/Motivation

Do I know what I'm going to be doing 10 yrs from now?

I honestly don't know what i will be doing in 10 yrs. That fact kinda scares me and gives me motivation along with organization in my quest. We only have 5 more weeks of school left along with graduation on May 31st. The one day that I have been waiting for for more than 13 to 14 years. School will be out and over and college will be already started by the time we know it!

Everything was just my views for today! Run with it. Have fun with it! =P

Day Of Silence

Another day in the life of ... me! lol ..


Yesterday was Nate and I's 3 weeks so far. =)


Just randomly throwing facts out there.




OH .. FYI ... Friday, April 25Th is the "Day of Silence"
The National Day of Silence brings attention to anti-LGBT name-calling, bullying and harassment in schools. This year’s event will be held in memory of Lawrence King, a California 8Th-grader who was shot and killed Feb. 12 by a classmate because of his sexual orientation and gender expression. Hundreds of thousands of students will come together on April 25 to encourage schools and classmates to address the problem of anti-LGBT behavior.
This is what i will be doing all day Friday. From the time i wake up until the time that i pass out at night. I will not be speaking one word to anyone. No teachers, No friends, No parents ... no one! This will probably be one of the hardest things I've ever done before. I guess we'll see how i do! =)
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
4 Truths about the Day of Silence

3) Day of Silence participants encourage schools to implement proven solutions to address anti-LGBT name-calling, bullying and harassment.

This past Saturday (April 19Th), the Crawfordsville High School Concert Band went to ISSMA Contest at Arsenal Tech High School and received a GOLD rating on performance and another GOLD rating on sight reading. With that being my last high school concert band contest, i didn't really feel as though it was the best that it could have been and i am saddened by the fact that that was my last contest for concert band. =( ... oh well!
High school is almost done and gone. We have 5 more weeks and then I get to walk down that aisle. =D ... Besides that, Its DEF time for beddy bye. Although its only close to 10PM ...
