Gosh, so much has happened this month! :( I miss all you guys from tv.com :( Truly I do :cry: I miss the good old days when everything seemed right in the world :( Nothing to worry about but homework :( *sigh* I'm not even 18 yet and I'm already wishing for the "old days" :lol: :roll:

As you all know, my good friend Cassie died last week of cancer :cry: I went to her funeral on Thursday to say goodbye :cry: I drove 4 other people so it wasn't as bad as it could have been :( We were all there to support and console each other...knowing Cassie wouldn't want us to be sad and upset, we did the best we could to make each other laugh :) We did a pretty good job :D So many old memories to share....:) Most of the people I drove lost touch with me for a year or so :( It was great to catch up and become good friends again :) I know that's what Cassie always wanted...

That day, I dressed up and wore a skirt for the first time since my uncle's wedding 5 years ago or so... Many kids at school have never seen me out of a sweatshirt and jeans :lol: I didn't want to wear the skirt at school, but I always used to joke to Cassie that the day I wore a skirt to school would be the day the world flipped upside down :lol: :roll: She always laughed at me and said she would laugh and make fun of me if I ever wore one to school. So, in her honor, I wore the skirt to school so she could get her laugh in Heaven :lol: :cry:

Unfortunately, that also brought lots of unwanted attention to me :evil: :roll: My friends and I used to call my ex-boyfriend a parasite because he was always around me and would never leave me alone. Now, I have 4 parasites: 2 freshman, a senior, and my ex :roll: Now Cassie is really getting a good laugh up there :lol: :roll:

The senior I don't mind though :) I met him a few weeks ago while we were waiting for the bus. We got talking, and found out we both have a common interest in nature and trees :) Since then, he'd find me in the morning, and show me rare tree leaves and tell me stories of hiking he used to do :) He's really very sweet :)

I'm still having issues with my environmental science teacher :evil: I think her life ambition right now is to make my life miserable :evil: She's doing a great job too :evil: That class is kind of ruining my dream career, but I'm trying not to let it happen because I know she just feels threatened by me :P She doesn't have a degree to teach that class :P She's allowed to teach it because she took one class that pertained to the subject :shock: I think she's afraid I could take her job one day... The great part of that class is that I'm going to the Indiana Sand Dunes on October 21st :D I'm really excited about it :D I'll take lots of pictures to share with you guys :D

Well, this is where I shall stop for now. That's not all that happened this past month, but it's the gist of it. Really, nothing about my life has been normal lately :? In just 2 months, everything has changed......and here I thought change was gradual :roll: HAH! :lol: :roll:

So what's new with you guys? :)
