Oh goodness, we just got back from Longhorn and I had entirely too much food. My little blue friend? Yeah, he's me, ready to explode!

Tom left today. Last night we went to Wild Ginger in the middle of a crazy Thunderstorm and the power went out when we sat down. So we had a romantic, sushi dinner with no power. It was kinda cool. But he's gone and Chanda's gone and I'm pretty much alone now. Carolyn's still around but David is too so I don't count for much as of now. But it's actually kinda okay because tomorrow I'm leaving with my parents to Michigan until Wednesday. We're going up to a place called Frankenmuth? I dunno, supposedly we use to go there all the time but I don't remember it.

Since we're doing that and then I leave on Friday I startd packing today. I had this dream last night that I went to Miami and then realized I left all the boxes I packed my life into at home! It worried me so much in my sleep that when I woke up I resolved myself to start packing today. I have all my clothes packed up as well as my laundry and other household supplies in a basket. I think I'll get my books, tv, and DVDs packed up tonight then I'll do the rest Thursday. I also have to pack for this trip. Goodness, I'll certainly be living outta bags and boxes for a while!

The Facebook

~~~~ Relaxed

So, my roomate got me into the website, The Facebook, and I really think you should check it out. It's more for college students then anyone else really but it's uber cool. It's a great way to keep in touch with friends from high school and meet new ones at your college. My name's Megan Dice and you should really look me up and add me as a friend if you have an account! It'll make me feel all good an special to have more friends on facebook!

Today, Andrew, Tom, Kevin, and I are planning to go to a Gap. Why is that? Because Gap has a promotion with iTunes that if you try on a certain pair of pants you get a free song from iTunes. Very cool. So we're gonna go do it. There are three pairs of girls pants and a pair of guys pants to try. I think that boys should offer to try on all four to get four free songs. It makes more of an impact if the guys offer to try on girls pants. It doesn't mean that much if I offer to try on all three girls pants and the guys. It just isn't as funny. Who knows, I need another pair of jeans, maybe I'll end up buying the pair of pants I try on. I also need a coupld pairs of cords but I'll probably save getting those until I go shoppinf with Felicia! I'm uber excitied! We're heading up to Beachwood Place and we're just gonna hang out. It's gonna be great to meet her before school starts and create a real bond. Oh, she loves Rent. That just means sooo much to me! She'll come see the movie with me! And, if she likes Rent she must be okay with homosexuals... or as they say in Rent, "fag-out, lezzies, dykes, cross-dressers too". If she's that cool then I'd hope the fact that I'm a Pagan won't weird her out too much. I made this "soul quiz" and sent it to her and told her there. I hope she isn't too weirded out. I don't think she will be... she sounds so cool but you never know. Maybe she's just never heard of people following the Old Religions before. I'm sure she'll be cool with it. I'm just getting worked up for nothing. *Deep breathe* Okay, I'm gonna go read more Chronicles of Narnia. *Squeal* I LOVE these books. I can't wait for the movie!

It's Over

~~~~ Sad

As Collins said after Angel died from AIDS, "it's over." Now, the fact that Chanda left today for California is not nearly as horrible as losing her to AIDS (she doesn't have them, by the way) but she is gone. We spent all of yesterday together. For some reason the power went out at her house and we had a good time in the dark. I helped her pack, we had milkshakes from Dairyland, and we hunted Casey down to get all our Sims back. Then, since she had some pillowcases to sew, she came to my house and put all the Sims onto her computer while she sewed. It was nice, we had the Indians game on and we gushed over Grady Sizemore whenever he was on. Then, the hours began to wear down and I knew it was about time to get Chanda home. I felt quite confident as I dropped off her stuff on her kitchen table that I wouldn't cry. But then, we hugged good-bye. Oh the tears came. They weren't ugly tears but they were tears nevertheless. The just kinda slid off my face and all I could say was "don't leave." We both kinda cried for a while then I went home. I feel a lot better now. I eve saw this pretty sky tonight and it made me feel a lot better. I know it'll only be a few months before we see each other again. And email and cell phones are a real blessing. Now I need to start concentraiting on my own trip to college. Here I go... watch my speed!

As the Paths Diverge

~~~~ Contemplative

Tomorrow is Chanda's last day in town. I mean, for a very long time. She's heading off to California for school. She's attending Pamona College. Hopefully I'll feel the same way tomorrow as I do right now. I'm not necessarily upset, curious is a better term for my mood right now. I mean, sure, it's gonna suck that she's moving away and I won't see her for like 3 or 4 months but I will see her again. Maybe that's why I'm not going into emotional overdrive. We've gotten a lot better with talking on the phone lately and there's the internet and everything. I'll be talking to her all the time. No problem. It stinks when your best friend moves away but life does go on. I think Felicia and I are gonna head to the mall next week so I have that to look forward to and, of course, there's the fact that I'm going to college too! See? Chanda's going to school? Me too, no problem!

Tonight the two of use and Carolyn went to Applebees for dinner and we saw Sky High. I made the two of them these oversized tote bags and I filled them with flip flops, air fresheners, stain removers, candy, magazines, and, in Carolyn's I included a picture of my puppy, Shelby, holding a stuffed firehydrine Carolyn got her in her mouth. It's very cute. It was a nice night and there was this boy in the movie named Steven Strait... well, that's his real name, in the movie he was called Warren Peace (get it, Warr and Peace... Warren Peace... it's cute) and his hands caught fire. ;)
oo-la-la

Anywhoo, I'll keep my eyes out for a good pic of him and if I find one oh,he's totally going in my Cute Boys Gallery

Tomorrow I'll probably be at Chanda's the vast majority of the day. I also really need to do the Alcohol EDU thing for Miami soon but I need a high speed computer. Video images on a dial-up modem = disaster. I think I'll call Tom after he gets off work to see if he wants to do it Friday or Saturday. It's wonderul not to be working and have all the free time in the world. Right now I need to go looking for my text books and start ordering them. Oh the joys of college!

My Summer Has Finally Begun

~~~~ Peachy Keen

I know it's August 1st but since today is the first day I am jobless this summer. I woke up at 9:30 and stayed in bed for a while to watch a Pooh Bear marathon on the Disney channel. Then I set up the sewing machiene and worked on Chanda's bag. I'm almost finished with it and I should get hers and Carolyn's bags done by tomorrow. Then Thursday I think we're going out to dinner and then to see Sky High so that'll be the perfect time to give them their gift bags!

Then the door bell rang and it was Carolyn! She actually wanted to see Sky High today so we went to wake up Chanda (it was 12:40 and she was still asleep!) and we went to Bob Evans for lunch. Then Carolyn remembered she had a doctors appointment so Chanda and I went to see Must Love Dogs.


I went to see it because it had a westie in it... my dog! It was a cute movie. I don't think I'd ever see it again but it was cute. Then Tania and I hung out at Chanda's for a while then I came home. It was a nice day. I wanna finish my book by tomorrow so I can go to the library. I also have to return A Nightmare Before Christmas to Blockbuster.

Tomorrow's Chanda's party though so that comes first and foremost. It's at 7 though so I have a ton of time to finish everything. I think I'll visit Tom at lunch... it'll make him happy. I kinda blew him off today when he called. I was talking to my roomate Felicia, that was so much more important. The more I talk to her the more uber cool she sounds. I can't wait to meet her!

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

~~~~Content

Today Tom and I went to The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. It was worth seeing... once but I don't think I'll ever need to go back. I did see some stuff that belonged to Jim Morrison and Steven Tyler. That made me pretty happy. We learned all about the rock opera 'Tommy' from The Who. In marching band we played "Pinball Wizard" from the movie but I didn't know much about it. I mean, I didn't even know Elton John played the Pinball Wizard. Then we went to Legacy Village for some Gelato from La Gelateria. And we went to Beachwood just because. They have a Sweet Factory though so I bought Tom some German Raspberries. They're the best invention in the world!



We had Subway for dinner and now we're watching A Nightmare Before Christmas. I've never seen it before and I thought I should watch it before I saw The Corpse Bride. I kinda enjoy these movies. They're cute in a strange way. We're just meeting the Oogie Boogie Man. Tomorrow I think I'll finish Chanda and Carolyn's bags. I should have them done soon because Chanda's leaving for California. It's kinda strange to think that things are changing for good now but I'm still looking forward to school so much now and being out on my own that I'm not too upset. It'll all be okay now, I promise (myself).
