Dear Lauren,
Please remember that your new (plastic) desk chair is not meant to be used when just wearing underwear.
Sincerly yours,
red upper thigh/lower butt-cheek area

P.S. Put some pants on, woman!

Last night was the 214 shindig.

I can't believe I only have five days left here. It didn't necessarily go by fast so much as I'm surprised it's near over. That made no sense. Psh, whatever.
I guess it's time I start packing; I have a lot of crap.
I'm going to a cross a one-man picket line and go to the senior film/video show: "Give me equipment or give me death!"
I'm having a good hair day today, what the hell?! I'm loving it.

TUESDAY THE 25TH
7:30PM
GV'S Peforming Arts Center

It's FREE and really shouldn't be missed.

(just kidding, don't cry)

ROCK OUT!

Well, howdy-do ladies and gents!

Tis Christmas and Hanukkah Eve; so happy holidays to all you crazies.

I'm pretty happy right now. I'm feeling very relieved now that I have my grades from this semester (oh lady luck, I don't know when you'll run out- but stick around as long as you would like!). Also, I'm thrilled because we found out that Tutu's cancer should be able to be treated with just an out-patient surgery and is beyond fabulous.

We are going to Sherry's (yay!) for Christmas Eve dinner, but that's not for another hour or so. Therefore you guys get a story about what it is like to be raised by Steve n'Barb.

Friday the 23rd
Daddio: "Hey Laur, how do you feel about blonde hair and blue eyes?"
Me: "... I think it's cute?"
Daddio: "Good, I found a son-in-law I'd like."
Me: "..."
Daddio: "He is Dutch and flies planes. I think he might have a girlfriend, but we can work around that."
Me: "Oh yeah, those so are expendable."
Daddio: "He is just a big hunk of man and I think it would take a strong and powerful woman like you to reel him in."
Me: "That's amazingly creepy, Dad! Don't talk like that! What do you get out of this anyway?"
Daddio: "A plane ride!"
Me: "My life for a plane ride? Seems like an even trade to me."
Daddio: "Well, I hope for a lifetime of plane rides."
Me: "MOM! Aren't you going to object to this? You're husband is going to trade my future in for plane rides.
Momsie: "Nope."
Me: "Why not? What could you possibly get out of this?"
Momsie: "A Jewish son-in-law."

My life is all one big continous joke, and the punch line always seems to be "A Jewish son-in-law."

I'm trying to get really excited for tomorrow. TKmas! Hopefully I'll have some fun pictures for you.

Two minutes. I just wasted two minutes putting on lipgloss.

Goodbye sleepover.
Currently listening to Jack Johnson.
My orangey leaf-lights are on.
Pennies for my thoughts:
My only true happiness comes from other people.
How much will actually change in three weeks?

What countries did you visit?
I don't even think I went to Canada this year. That's slightly disappointing...

What would you like to have in 2006 that you lacked in 2005?
An overseas study program. A funeral-free year. Motivation and passion.

What date from 2005 will remain etched upon your memory, and why?
I'm horrible with dates.

What was your biggest achievement of the year?
Getting my Associates, maybe.

What was your biggest failure?
I didn't pay attention to my instincts as often as I should have.
I took people for granted.
