I'm Done...

...Well sort of. With this semester at least. I had quite an adventure trying to get home on thursday. Well, my flight didn't leave until early friday morning but the only way for me to get to the airport was to get there thrusday night. So i tried to get only the bus but it was overbooked so someone's mom volunteered to take us...well round about 1030 she calls and says that the weather is too bad, she wouldn't even take us to the train station, so we were basically screwed. I called up my sponser who drove like a maniac (not really) so that we could try to make the last train but we missed it by two minutes. so he drove us two hours to the air port. we got there at one thirty in the morning. By the way that was the second time he has bailed me and Chelsey out in the last three months. well i'm home right now chillin except i have a sinus infection. well i ave nothin left i'll se you next time.

I'm Almost Done!!!!

...So I just took my third final, spainish (too easy), and I didn't do as well as I should have. I got a 91 but I should have at least gotten a 98. I made a bunch of goofy mistakes. Well, anyways that's that. Let's see what else... I think i'm getting sick, that sucks but I guess it's better for me to get sick now than later because i'm running the marathon in January and I really don't want to be sick around that time. Well I really don't have anything else to say, that might be because I just took some cough syrup and i'm fealin pretty good right now....well anyways I'm off. Goodnight all :p

I don't really have anything to say...

Yeah so i'm jsut writing for the sake of writing...I'll start by talking about my day and if anything else comes up well then i'll mention that too. Let's see... I woke up this morning and went to breakfast...that was followed by seven hours of studying Physics. Why study physics for seven straight hours you ask? well, that is because I had my final exam today, that makes number two. I think I did alright on this one, i'm definately banking on some partial credit on this one. The one before that one was Philosophy on Saturday... i'm not really sure how I did on that one, I know I passed it and that's all I really care about right now. After my final on Sat. I went to a birthday party type thing. That was fun, I hung out with alot of mormons, it was cool though, they didn't try to convert me or anything...On Sunday I went with Glee Club to sing at the New York Public Library... that was fun. Afterwards, Lilliane and I went to Red Lobster. Then I came back to West Point. Tomorrow I have Spanish, I'm not even sure how I should study for that one. I have an A in the class and I never did any of the work. I think i'm just going to listen to music in spanish to get my ear use to hearing it before the test. Well i'm going to go to sleep now. Goodnight ya'll and i'll be home after 3 more finals and a night at the airport. God Bless.

A Funny Christmas letter

Yeah so I was alittle board, you can create your very own at this site if you wanna be as cool as me. http://members.aol.com/frogiearno/dearsanta.htm
Santa ClauseNorth Pole, Earth
Dear Santa,

I have been a good girl.
It really wasn't my fault what happened at Vicky's Office party. It was Chelsea who spiked the punch with too much Root Bear. I can't help it if I drank 5 glasses. It was so good---smelled and tasted just like flowers.
I thought it was funny when I put Adam's Shirt on my head and danced the Clypso on the Chair while singing `Regge Kumbia'. I didn't mean to break Vicky's Radio and don't know why Vicky would accuse me of Murder.
I don't remember calling Mike's wife a Hot Pig---even though she looked like one with Blue eye shadow and Red lipstick!
And when I threw up on Mary's husband's Arm, it was only because I ate too much of that Fish.
After all that fun, I admit I was a little tired. So I fell asleep on my way home and drove my Car through my neighbor's Bedroom. I don't think that was any reason for my neighbor to call me a Cold Rabbit and have me arrested for Stealing!
So, Santa...here I sit in my jail cell on Christmas Eve, all Sexy and Round. And I'm really not to blame for any of this Happy stuff. Please bring me what I want the most---bail money!
Sincerely and Quickly yours,Kesha (Really a nice girl!)
P.S. It's only 15 bucks!

well.....

...I don't really know what to write about but I promised someone that I would write at least three times a week so I'm just gonna start writing. This weekend was the big army navy game. Army lost...again. But I got to hang out with Chelsea and Jacki. That was fun, we drove down to Philly together and got a hotel and just hungout. We went to a movie after the game. We saw the new Zorro movie. It was cute, but of course i would love it for two reasons, one because i've been obsessed with Zorro since i was little and two, ANTONIO BANDERES...need I say more...lol. well anyways hanging out with the girls was fun this weekend. Then yesterday I went to the city with the Glee Club to sing at the USO dinner. That was cool...umm...what else. well... today was the big christmas dinner. That was cool. I sat in my room while the whole Corps screwed up their lungs by smoking cigars. I don't know why that's a tradition it's such a disgusting habit. well i'm to a dance party with Chelsea...maybe i'll write some more of nothing later. :)

I Can Only Imagine...

It was just like a scene out of the movie. It was raining outside, and all the lights were off. You could barely see the hundreds of cadets lined up on the apron. Everyone was scilent and still. Taps was played, then amazing grace, then the 21 gun salute...then we sang the Alma Matter. Everything ran perfactly, except for the fact that I was so choked up that I couldn't sing very well.... I was reminded of this song after attending a vigil in honor of one of my peers, who was killed last wednessday. It is a tradition to do this whenever someone in the Corps dies and it is very powerful. Tony is looking at the face of Jesus right now...I can only imagine...I didn't know him, I don't even know if he is saved and I was brought to tears. I guess because this ceremony reminded me of one I attended when I was a sophmore in high school. One of my good friends was killed in a training accident, he was a marine. I didn't cry for him at all until the 21 gun salute. It was like all 21 rounds were being fired into my chest, it was almost too much to bear. Someone was feeling like that for Tony, maybe his mom, his sister, his father, or his girl friend...I don't know but I was feeling everyone of those rounds echo in my bones. One of the most painful feelings I had ever experienced. And the sad this is I and many others will have to experience it many more times.

Hummm......

I have so much that i want to say and i don't even know where to start. I guess i'll start with Thanksgiving. My Thanksgiving was very relaxing. I went to North Carolina to visit my mom's family. I just didn't have enough time to go all the way back to Cali. I saw my grandfather and he actually rememberd who I was (he's very old). I basically slept all of Saturday, i really needed that, although I don't think the rest lasted very long because it's only Tuesday and i'm already exhausted from the week. This place just drains every piece of energy you have. Let's see what else, oh my big sister sent me some more pictures of her and the baby. That was so exciting. When I saw that I had gotten a letter from her, that thought jsut made my whole week alot better (that was last week by the way, and it sucked alot). I don't know if anyone else notices this theme but everything sucks to me right now. Maybe when the semester is over (only two more weeks, PRAISE GOD!!!) i'll be alittle more optimistic about life. There's really nothing interesting going on with me. Just the same old stuff. I'm running a marathon in January, that'll be fun, 26.2. I don't really know why I have volunteered to run for over four hours straight (that's about how long it will take me because i run real slow). Hopefully I will raise enough money so that I won't go broke in the process... oh wait I already am broke!!! Nevermind. Hahaha...well, i'm off to class now. Wish me luck. I still haven't been doing very well with actually paying attention. And maybe someday i'll learn how to use this thing and figure out how to put pics up and stuff. But untill then you'll just have to ues your imagination. Have a good one.

My First Post

Well this is my first post. I have been keeping a paper journal, so maybe i'll have a little section dedicated to what i wrote in there but i don't have time right now to copy it all on line so i'll just start anew. A lot has been going on with me. I have been feeling very overwhelmed and stressed out lately. I feel like i'm loosing my mind. My mother tells me that it's just because i'm stressed out. It feels like more that that. I literally cannot focus for more than two minutes. I'ts by the grace of God that I am doing well in all of my classes (and by well I mean 2.8, 2.9 ish PRAISE THE LORD). I don't even pay attention in half of my classes, but I somehow understand the material and pass all of the tests. God has been so good to me. I really think that my problem is just some left overs from my past. I don't understand it though. I also think that it might be dissappointment. I was very dissillusioned about my school. I came here becasue i thought that it would be different from most other colleges. I thought that the people would be mature. That there would be people with the same expectations as me. But, I was wrong. That was a big blow. There was a big shpeil maybe i'll talk about it in a later post. Well I hope everything is going well with whoever decides to read this. Feel free to leave comments or notes or whatever. Take it easy ( and I really do mean take it easy. don't burn yourself out).
