so the OC was good tonite... watching it made me think of nathalie and sarah-brad. =) good to have good thoughts of UIUC while i'm here in NJ.

break has been extremely stressful. i've basically cut myself off from the rest of the world workin on my portfolio. i have to say tho, it is coming along. been at the HS everyday for most of the schoolday hanging out w/wiegand (my art teacher in HS). he's been SO AWESOME. he's saving me about $300 dollars doing this for me, and it all looks really great. he's been so selfless through all of this, allowing me to order him around and basically having him put my portfolio together. along w/that, i have 3 projects that i have to complete this week and they're comin along. they are taking a LOT longer than i thought , but then again, i guess i made a mistake for putting a time period on how long it would take me... underestimating the projects.

i really hope this isn't the way phil finds out, but i can't go to boston anymore either, which sucks. i was gonna visit him and ellen for a night and see what college life in boston is all about. phil and i had a ton planned... a TON.. and now it's sad taht after all that anticipation it ain't gonna happen, it wasn't parents, friends, or church stopping be but stupid SCHOOL. all well. it's all worth it if i get into a major right?! =P . sorry phil...=T next time we'll do the artsy stuff together =). (btw, i had weird dreams about you last nite. 1. we were doing handstands together and we rocked at them 2. we were coyotes for coyote ugly and we rocked that as well. i guess we are two great people that know how to rock it. haha. =P)

so yeah.... spring break hasn't really been what it's supposed to be.. a BREAK, but it's definately been refreshing to see my family.. sooo good. taught jeff how to drive today and that was a lot of fun. him and i are gettin along really well and i feel like our relatoinship has changed since i've gone to college, for the better. got a chance to catch up w/the family--laughing at everything together, eating together, talkin together. i love my family =). it's definately something i needed to motivate me to do well on my portfolio. =)

ok i think i'm finished here. off to bed, got school... HIGH SCHOOL in the morning at 9am! =)

oh, and btw. i got a perm. haha, ahhhhh.
