MissFlynnie

I'm debating whether or not I should begin using this again, or creating a new one. Either way...Not sure I'd keep it up. But I do miss my writing and whatnot. Anyone else still alive? I know a few of you are and still update on occasion if not regularly.

It's too fast.
Life.
Time consumes us.
Do we even live?

We eat.
We sit.
We work.
We talk.
Is it living?

Sometimes I wonder.
What if?
There was a time machine.
Not to change the world.
But to let us live life.

I wish for more 1876.
As Kate said.
No worries over little things.
Just taking hold of life.

God made us.
We corrupted us.
Sin consumes us.
We are weak.

I want to enjoy God.
To actually see His Creations.
But I'm pulled back.
I'm forced.

We are closer to death than life.
We value materialism over humanity.
What to wear, what to eat, who to know.
What happened to simple basics?

Life.
Where did it go?
Time.
It's racing.

Curious...who is w00t?!?! lol.

Okies...I'm done...lol.

GAH......I still need to fix this bloody laptop....

But of course $35 fee to talk to a technician on the phone..heck no.
Yet, I already know what the problem is, I just want to know if I can take it to the store at which it was bought. OR, do I HAVE to send it away? Yeah...stupid post. Sorry, was just mad, cause I would like to stay on the computer for longer then 30min without the fan almost blowing up.

Anyway....having a hard time sleeping....I honestly miss my bed at Gordon....it's so much more comfy. Yes, a college bed more comfortable. lol.

G'night all!

( lyris )

Was watching Grease....really liked the lyrics. And really felt like I could relate to Sandra Dee. Oh yes, especially during the song Rizzo sings when making fun of her. Very familiar. LOL. Some of you know what I mean.

Anyways.....goodnight!! buenas noches!!! bonne nuit!!

Yeah sooo....this week and upcoming week....really stressful.
So much on my plate.
But then again it's that time of year.
Finals coming up.
Ugh.

Not much been going on.
Usual daily happenings.
*shrug*

Was supposed to go on LEAD.
Skipped out.
Not feeling well.
Too much school work/studying.
Pointless to go anyway when I went last year.
For the same thing.
Annnnd.......as usual it's COLD fo the LEAD retreat.

My roomie's boyfriend came today.
Those two are so cute.
I'll admit, I'm somewhat jealous.
But...who wouldn't be? Haha.
I'm single and they're perfect for each other.
:)
Still love em, and am happy for them.
:)

Ummmm........lotsa other stuff on my mind.
But, that is what I write in my written journal.
YUP....I write in a written journal once again.
Not everyday, just when I feel the need to write.
It's nice.

Okies....gonna watch Pride & Prejudice.
Yes, again.
But Nilda hasn't seen it and wants to.
Esepcially since we don't have all these DISRESPECTFUL people.
Ugh.
Let me not get into that.
Soo....off I go....to lose myself in the world of Jane Austen.
Haha.

no more.
time to refocus.
on my relationship with Christ.
on my studies.
it's not all about fun.
it's not all about livin large.
it's not all about findin or havin that special someone.
no matter how much i wish and pray for it.
right now it's about God.
what it is He has planned.
not what I wish for, not what I want.
but what He and He alone wants.
prayer is what i need.
prayer is what i'm doin'
prayer for strength, guidance, peace and understandin
but most importantly, patience
i gotta stop leapin
gotta stop speakin before thinkin
it's about time I became me
no more masquerade
no more hiding from the world
gotta face reality and leave the fantasy...
no more.

Soo...it's the end of the school year. Lots has been going on. Hence why not too many updates. And right now I can't either because I am reading and typing up notes. This was my 10 minute break. :-P I'll be home Wednesday night though!!!!!!

Ok so....REALLY EXCITING stuff last night....well for me. :)

Ok...around 7:50 Yiry and Nilda call me to go to the gym. I first get some water from Claymore then head back to the dorm and get ready. We went to the gym, got there around 8:20 and worked out till 9:40ish? It was sweeet. Stretches for about 20min, then I did the bike for almost 25min. After that I couldn't find Yiry and Nilda, so I did some more stretching and I worked on my abs with the machine. Finally found them, that had gone to the Sana without me!!!! :( They said I looked really into the bike though. :P Haha. Then we were going to do some weight lifting/upper-body strengthening. But, we were looking out the huge windows down into the pool. So, we went back to the room, got some swimwear on, and headed back to go to the pool. Okay, this is the exciting part. Me and my roomie DO NOT know how to swim. SO, our friend Esther was on lifeguard duty. She proceeded to help us out, teachig us how to stay afloat, etc. When she got off duty she joined us in the pool and taught us some strokes. Sooo...yea my roomie and I are learning how to swim!!! And we did....I just have a terrible kick. We were in the pool for over an hour. But yeah...I'm psyched. Cause not only am I learning how to swim, but swimming is the best work out ever cause it works everything!!!

I was so discusted with myself the other day cause I didn't have the stamina for my Irish Step Dancing, nor am I in shape. I've gained quite a bit of weight these past three months. :-P No, I don't think I'm fat, I'm just outta shape. So we are planning to go to the gym more often, me and Nilda, Yiry already goes everyday. Sometmes I hope to be able to use the dance room, but everytime I've gone SOMEONE is in there. :P

But yeah, that might be boring to ya'll, but I'm excited. And last night afterwards, I didn't have that lazy feel. Now that was amazing. Haha. :) Anyway, I gotta go read before dinner. But I just wanted to write about this....

You Are a Natural Flirt

Believe it or not, you're a really effective flirt. And you're so good, you hardly notice that you're flirting. Your attitude and confidence make you a natural flirt. And the fact that you don't know it is just that more attractive!

Your Irish Name Is...

Eva Clarke

I guess my Irish name wasn't good enough then? :P

You Have a Melancholic Temperament

Introspective and reflective, you think about everything and anything. You are a soft-hearted daydreamer. You long for your ideal life. You love silence and solitude. Everyday life is usually too chaotic for you. Given enough time alone, it's easy for you to find inner peace. You tend to be spiritual, having found your own meaning of life. Wise and patient, you can help people through difficult times. At your worst, you brood and sulk. Your negative thoughts can trap you. You are reserved and withdrawn. This makes it hard to connect to others. You tend to over think small things, making decisions difficult.

Partially true...I must say. Except the silence part....I do enjoy it, but sometimes I need noise!!!

What Your Face Says

At first glance, people see you as warm and well-balanced. Overall, your true self is passionate and physical. With friends, you seem dramatic, lively, and quick to react. In love, you seem intelligent and a bit intimidating. In stressful situation, you seem like you're oblivious to the stress.

Also somewhat true :)

Ok....back to reading.

Sooo....I've been at school all week. Got back Sunday, obviouslly.

I was reading a set of quotes today on a site that I hadn't visited in months. So here it is....it's a quote from Gerard (Gerry) Butler. An actor whom I really think is wonderful! He's got great talent, and I swear very movie of his that I have seen, he looks different. Haha. Anyway...I'm not here to discuss my admiration for the man. :)

026. "I think I'm a man out of place. I love Scotland. You can stand amidst those mountains and feel the history. It emanates all around you. When I'm there, I fantasize about the Celts coming over from Europe in bearskins. And the simplicity and purity of society back then - it wasn't as complicated or discolored as it is now. I imagine roaming those hills, fighting those battles..." -- Interview Magazine ( July 1, 2002)

( my thoughts )

Classes have been going. Got housing and registration soon. I can't believe I have like less then two months left! I'm psyched for this summer. I want it to come. I really could have used another week off for classes. REALLY could have. O'well. Umm...Jess and I got our deviant site going again. :) YEAH. Hehe. Now I just need to start making graphics aagain. So little time in life. It goes by too fast. The pace is too fast. I swear I was born in the wrong time period. Haha. O'well. What is a girl to do?

Oh...yeah...my library had the old Zorro with Guy Williams...I checked it out and am going to watch either tonite or tomorrow sometime. Hehe. I'm excited.

Okies...Ima gonna go. I had planned to say more, but I don't feel like it.

♥

Yeah soo....

PHANTOM OF THE OPERA last night!!! Well technically TWO nights ago...but anyway so I saw it the 8th. WOW....sooo AWESOME. SOOOO much better then I remember when I saw it at age 11. I expected some obvious differences. But, I still LOVED it. And it was really exciting, the chandelier was literally RIGHT ABOVE me. Like, if it had fallen STRAIGHT down, I wouldn't be here. Haha. Jess kept on saying "It's gonna fall on you...I know it." Hehe. Like, there aren't words to describe how AMAZING it was. I mean there were some dissapointments/dislikes. I had a new appreciation for some things too....such as Andre and Firmin....SOOO much funnier in the broadway. And I like the "mystical/magical" notion of the Phantom in the broadway. Sooo good. Umm...Raoul was too "bouncy" though. Haha. It's kinda hard to explain, but he did have a GOOD voice! Just....bouncy. I mean there is soo much more to it that I am just, yeah. You wanna know you can always talk to me. This is a VERY BRIEF overview of it. I'm just glad that I'll be able to remember this now, unlike the fact that I can't remember alot about the first time I saw it.

Otherwise. Jess and I saw Andre and Piangi on our way out, along with misc ballet girls. But we were already driving away and there was traffic. It's kinda odd, you're like oh oh there he/she is!!! And then its like, wow I probably wouldn't have recognized them if I had been passing on the street, I only knew it was them cause of where they were coming from and that I had JUST seen them on stage. Now, if we had seen the actor, Gary, who plays the Phantom, we would stopped no matter what!

Oh, I bought the poster, I need a frame though. And a few other coolie things. Ok...so I'm obsessed. I'm sorry!!!! I just, yeah.

As for today. Hung out with an old friend. I haven't seen her in ages!!! We went out to lunch to eat. Then came back here and just chilled and talked some more. It was good times to see her again. Then I went out later with my parents. My mom needed to buy my Dad's b-day gift. Yup, that's tomorrow! I bought him the Narnia Soundtrack. Not the orignal, but the "special edition" I guess you would call it.

JESS...I'm sorry about dargging you EVERYWHERE to find a shirt the other day. Really, I'm not usually that picky. I just...everything was sooo expensive.

Okies, I just finished watching Mr. and Mrs. Smith...FINALLY got my parents to watch it. Then again, I've had it at school with me for this past month or more. Yeah...good movie!

Now...it's time for me to get to bed. I'm not feeling well...but I just think it's been my wacky schedule this week.

Sooo....I've been home since Wednesday night!!! w00t! Soo good to be home and on SPRING BREAK. I'm not doing anything huge, just taking the advantage of some off time. Oh yeah amd Wednesday I'll be seeing POTO with Jess!!! YEAH! Hehe.

I still haven't finished all the lil' bits for this journal layout...such as the sidebar...but in time.

Well...alot has happened since my last real update. Glad to be done with mid-terms. Found out some of my grades....NOT GOOD. I gotta work my butt off even MORE this quad. Ugh....why am I such a HORRIBLE tester?!

Day before I came home Jess and Danny came up to visit me. They got lost...Danny was not too happy. Lol. I don't know if I've ever seen him that upset. Well...I take that back, but anyway. They got to meet the roomie...though she was really busy with work, so she couldn't come with us to what Jess and Danny have labeled the "special place." It's nothing fancy, just a really RANDOM place. A furntiture store + IMAX + food + ice cream + learn to be a trapeze (sp?) artist + TONS of things made outta Jelly Beans and last but def NOT least....LIQUID FIREWORKS. Haha. Random, no? It was good times. Then we went back to my dorm room and just chilled for the 30min we had before they needed to head out. Showed them pics of all my frinds and my 19th birthday. Oh yes, and Jess got me a Curious George stuffed animal!! :) Oh, and the bestest card ever! ♥

Other than that. I have finally caught up on some sleep from all the all nighters or lack of sleep I've had in the past week. Seriously...I don't know how I did it last year, staying up till like 2 or 3am and waking up at 7am..I LOVE my sleep. :)

Oh oh....umm....Saturday night? No...I think Friday...yeah. Watched a movie in Gendey with David & Jenn, Jacob, and Felipe. Ironically it was the movie I had watched earlier that day...A Walk in the Clouds. Good stuff. Except we were all squished...due to brining the TV into the foyer area since the lounge TV was taken up with the Olympics and David had lost visitation...SO....being in a room was outta the question. Ugh...lol.

Otherwise...life goes on. I'm home. I haven't done too much...watched some Stargate SG-1 episodes on DVD. I'm babysitting now. But they're all watching a movie. And I am going to finish up editing the LJ and then make a background for my laptop. :)

Leave some cheer all!!

Phantom of the Opera in 4 days!!!!!!

Another year has gone and by....but I'm scared about whatever it is my roomie has planned for me tonit cause I'm totaly clueless and she just knows how to keep me curious...haha.

Anyway...I'll prolly update ya'll on that whenever it happens, or I should say AFTER it happens.

Like the new layout? Nooo...I didn't make it. I don't have time to do that anymore, unfortunantly.
