the death of me

chemistry

this class is already during into the biggest nuisance of my life. i feel like all i think about is chemistry. i had my first lab today and this picture explains everything i was looking at, clueless, while doing it. makes you rethink what you really wanna do with your life? hopefully i will be able to survive the class so i can figure that part out.

in search of

this.

i want to be somewhere warm. a place where my toes can breathe. where i can lounge all day and worry about my tan instead of chemistry, money or boys. paradise. that is what i am searching for.

nerdherd

to my girls of nerdherd,

i just realized that i have never given a shout out to you girls. you all were and are my everything ever since middle slash high school. vanessa.sarah.jaclyn.jill.laurenr.laurenp.haley. seven girls that i have stuck with through all my teenage experiences. each one bring a greater quality to our group that was named nerdherd by that boy i use to crush on. we have grown up together, inspiring each other to be the best of friends. now we are getting a little older, two of you are engaged, getting married in less than six months. i don't see you as often anymore because of all our different schedules and busy lives, but when we do get together it is like the olc times. the times where our voice volume rises quickly, the loudest gets to talk of course. you seem to always make me forget about my busy life and sit back and enjoy myself. life would not be the same without you, and i definitely would not be the person i am today if it weren't for the friendship and lvoe each of you brought to our group. forever and always nerd herd.

love,

katelyn

opposites

it is interesting to think about how the opposite state is always a little more appealing. for example, i have straight hair therefore i want curly hair. i am taller so i long to be shorter. when it's cold outside i want it to be hot. the boy that like you, you don't like, but the one you want, you can't have. if i had the opposites i know i would want all these things vice versa. this whole entire break, i have done nothing. nothing at all. i have packed up boxes here and there, but whenever i have a break off of school, i long to be right back in it. i don't understand this feeling because i know in two weeks i will be wanting to be in my bed watching abc and disney marathons slash my new obsession for jersey shore and facebooking til my eyes get tired. i guess it's the old saying "you want what you can't have." so at this point, i guess i will just embrace my straight hair, my height, and the cold weather and maybe one day i will understand why this happens in our lives.

twenty ten

so the time has come to make those resolutions. one that usually get broken by the end of the month. i am not going to be one of those people that falls under this category. i plan on sticking to what i want to see change and make it happen.

resolutions:
-stop drinking diet coke (two days down, 363 more to go)
-work out three times a week
-each morning wake up with the mindset "it's going to be a good day"
-learn patience
-make a library visit at least two times a week, even if it's not entirely necessary

i am looking at 2010 as my new start to a better person i want to grow into. although these resolutions are pretty generic, i am looking forward to this new year because i am looking at it as that fresh start (i know, it's pretty cliche) we will see how it ends up.
