hey guys. wow. it's been a hot minute, hasn't it? so i'm going to try to summarize my life in the past year or so. jesus. is that how long i've been gone? crap.
okay, so. number one i guess. haha. if you didn't know (the whole world knew, thank you fucking facebook.), me & anthony broke up. jesus. he's a whole other story, but i don't care to tell it since i don't even want to be reminded of the idiocracy.
whatever, man!
so i had a great, great summer! i worked at lameo marriage bureau for the last time ever (phew! even though they always want me back since i'm cheap labor haha). but that isn't why my summer was great, obv. i had a nice long weekend getaway with my cousin, marissa. (she recently came back from school in hawaii & im so happy! we've gotten totally close & we are like bffss) we spent a long weekend up in bahston. (& new hampshire for several hours to see the bsb in concert! don't hate!) we went to quincy market & salem & just had lots of fun. i have thousands of pictures to account for it. i plan to get started on my scrapbook (i promise!), even though i've been saying it for months now.
so. i'm going to be turning 21 on april 17th in the most amazing place in the world with my amazing marissa - VEGAS! woooo! marissa bought me the airplane tickets for xmas. it was amazing! we'll be gone from april 15th - april 21st. we planned out a lot of what we're going to be doing. (because i have major organizing disorders!) mystery adventures (we'll be assistant detectives, trying to piece together a mystery. LOL!), spa @ mirage, tea @ the bellagio, tony & tina's @ planet hollywood, & more! haha. we're staying at planet hollywood for the first couple of nights & then at MGM for the rest of the week. yeeeee. i'm so excited! we also picked out where we're going to be partying for my birthday (both friday at 12am, when it's official & then again that night lmao). hm. more on vegas when time gets closer (even though it's in a month & 18 days - yes, i started a countdown ever since i found out about it in dec! haha)
school haha. oh boy. im still at hunter, & am on track to my expected grad date in may 2010. i changed my major from psych to psych&anthro, to just anthro. i'm minoring in archaeology. i'm not too sure what field of anthro i want to go in, so i've been testing out a bunch of things. i scored an internship at the museum of natural history last semester through the anthropology department. i was with collections management - which meant me (& two other awesome girls, emily & hannah) had to vacuum artifacts like potsherds, bowls, etc & data base them. not too fun. i definitely don't want to be doing that for the rest of my life haha. i will be going to virginia to go on a dig this summer for a month or two. i was supposed to go to iceland (or italy!) but everyone is low on funding, so it's all a no-go. lame. at least virginia will be a lott cheaper ($300 for room&board for a month!). i'm also going to be helping out a professor this semester in her primatology nutrition lab, which is part of the biological anthropology field, so we'll test that out. if all else fails, i'll go into forensics, which i wanted to do from the beginning really anyway. & it doesn't hurt that if i go into forensics, i'll be going to hawaii to work on my masters! =) other possible grad schools include: NC, IL, AZ! all i know is that i want to get the fuck out of new york city, fo reals.
oh! as for school, i'm also in a philanthropic sorority. we kick ass! i've been lucky to be introduced to many outstanding women at hunter. yay zeta phi alpha! btw. we are totally on hunter's wikipedia page lol! woooooo!
i also have a great new job. my friend, angie, helped me get it. her boss was looking for someone to pick up his son at school, bring him home, & do homework with him. it's been a blast, actually. bradley is a 10 year old, who is super duper polite & nice to work with. it's a nice job to have during school since i go to school in the morning & then just go pick up b about 5 blocks away when class lets out. the nice monies i receive for my services is also a perk too. yay to no taxes!
i also went to work for emily (from amnh) at pbs for 2 days while she went home to DC. not fun at all. i had to transcribe interviews about certain tribes & whatnot. it was ridiculous how unorganized they were - none of the programs worked & shit. they paid me by page & i somehow ended up doing $100 worth of work. needless to say, if they ever need me to go back, my answer will be a definite NO. jeez.
hmmm. what else? OH. i got some new piercings & tats. they're hot! =) i'm currently at 3 tats & 11 piercings! wooooo! ;)
hahahaha. i also had a stalker last semester at school, which was NOT cute. actually, it was pretty funny now that i think about it. i nicknamed him creepo lmfao & honestly, i don't even remember his real name since i never refer to him by it. hahahaha, whatever, i'm a bitch. but seriously, if he was cute, i wouldn't mind. he was a smelly plaque cake fugly. he must have lied about taking his showers & brushing his teeth or something hahaha. sooo gross!!
anywho. i've been going to some shows! yayy for being a cultured new yorker! as far as plays, i've recently seen wicked (ah-mazing!) & equus, with a nakie harry potter. equus was quite odd, but interesting. plus, it didn't hurt to see daniel radcliffe running around naked hahahaha. as far as concerts, i've seen AAR! yeeee. i love tyson. me & mariss actually got to meet them after the show too, which was damn awesome. tyson winked at me & mike said that my shirt was his favorite. le yum. mike kennerty makes me swoon & i want to marry him. but then again, i want to marry everyone hahaha.
wow. okay. anything else? maybe. but i can't think right now, so that's all for now! updates will be coming more frequently, as i want to get back into writing. =)
maybe i'll make my lj friends only, but who knows. ehhh. haha.
anyway. that's all for now, folks! lauu<3

- Leave me a comment saying, "Interview me."
- I respond by asking you some personal questions so I can get to know you better. If I already know you well, expect the questions may be a little more intimate!
- You will update your LJ with the answers to the questions.
- You will include this explanation and an offer to interview someone else in the post.
- When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions.
tevs asked me: 1. Do you remember Ohm's law? Wha.. what? Is that something DePalma "taught" us? If so, then I definately don't, lmao. Boo Physics!
2. How's Hunter? What's your major? Hunter is AMAZING. I'm in love and so happy with it right now. Maybe that's just because I'm a naive freshie, but who knows? lol I'm planning on majoring in psychology, and taking on both [if I'm allowed to] anthropology and studio/fine arts for minors.
3. Have you had a good pretzel recently? Nope. I had the chance though, actually. I was walking to the MoMA for art class, and I saw they had either a hot dog or a pretzel for $1 each, which is totally unheard of nowadays. I only had $1 and I chose the hot dog. I regret my choice now though. =[
4. An eccentric millionaire offers to donate a large sum to charity if you will walk down a busy street - completely naked - for four blocks. There is no danger of being arrested, or physical abuse, would you do it? If I had a nice body, sure. I'm positive that no one wants to see a fat girl running around. I would probably do it if he gave ME the money instead LOL.
5. If you could send a letter back in time to yourself at age 10, what advice would you give yourself? Hmm. This is a tricky one. I guess I would tell myself to never, EVER let anyone bring me down. No matter who it was. I remember getting really depressed when I was in the sixth grade. If only there was someone to warn me on how to deal with things. I would also probably write little hints to myself on how to make my dad proud, because it seems like he never really cared for me.

Ahh. Finally a chance to sit down and actually write an entry.
Things have been so crazy. Whether it be because of finals, christmas shopping, or teaching Sunday school. It feels good to just sit down and relax for a moment.
Anyways. I had my English final on Friday and it was really easy. I'm not too sure if I should take that as a good thing or a bad thing. I have two finals tomorrow. Psychology and Philosophy. My psychology final was optional, but I decided to take it. My professor gave us 4 tests throughout the semester and said that we could take the final to drop our lowest grade. My grades are: 90, 80, 86, 90. My average is an 86.5, so I figure this final can only help me, since Jan said that if the final was lower than our lowest grade, she wouldn't count it. Also, the final is basically all those other tests combined, so hopefully, I'll do okay. Normally, I wouldn't care, but since psychology is my major, I need everything to be in good shape. My philosophy final might be a little harder though. I studied with two girls from my class, Marta and Dominique, last Wednesday and it was a lot more information than the midterm. But, I did get a B on both the midterm and first paper. Then, on Wednesday, I have my Statistics final, which is totally easy since Professor Stelmach made us cheat sheets to bring and is allowing us to bring other cheat sheet stuff. I'm not at all worried about this class. And lastly, on Thursday, I have my Sociology final. I don't even know what to say about this one, haha. My professor is nuts. It's always the same information over and over. I didn't study for my midterm, and ended up with a 90. Hopefully, all will go well again this time around. I really, really hope that I can pull at least a B average. I will seriously cry if I don't.
Christmas shopping has been a bit crazy. I went out yesterday, as mentioned previously in my last post, to the city and it was CRAZY. I never ever want to go into the city anymore during this time of the year. I was about to strangle people left and right. It feels like people have no manners. My mom went to take a picture of me and Joseph by the tree and people kept standing in front of her. Stupid ass people. Also, people are so ignorant. "EXCUSE ME! I HAVE A CHILD!" Okay. But don't push your stupid 4 year old daughter at me. Of course she's going to get trampled so shut up. I smushed about 3 children yesterday, and quite frankly, I didn't care. We went to Toys'R'Us and stuff. I got Anthony his Christmas gift(s). I can't really say since he's probably going to read this sometime before Christmas. I also bought Joseph a really cute leather wallet. It's an old school Nintendo controller when you open it. It's really cute. I also bought myself some pink earphones, which are totally adorable. I finished with my Christmas shopping for everyone except for Allyson. I still need to go out and track down a gift for her. Oh yeah, me and Joseph bought my mom an iPod shuffle, one of those new ones. I figured it's time to get her something besides socks and slippers for once.
I called Jose twice already to see if I could work down at City Hall for the break, but he hasn't answered yet. I guess they don't need me then. So, I'll be free the WHOLE time. If anyone wants to get together, let me know. PLEASE. I miss you guys.
Ugh. I thought I could write more, but Joseph is begging me to play with him. So, off I go to play MapleStory. I know, it's pathetic; an 18-year old playing a game for children, haha. Well, anyway. If anyone else plays, my name is Vexxn on Khaini. Message me or something.
Hahaha. Oh, and the Wii is fucking awesome. Enough said.
Hope everyone is doing well.
<3

Random Things:
-I'm in statistics and not doing what I'm supposed to, obviously lol.
-School is pretty fun; it's kind of like Tech all over again. I keep seeing doubles of some of my Techies and it makes me sad. I miss everyone. People should call me so we can go out to lunch or something. [I plan on driving down to Stony one day to visit.]
-Made lots of new friends and I love em!
-Passed all of my midterms! [which is quite surprising] Sociology-90; Philosophy-B; Statistics-90
-Saw Evil Dead the Musical and it was fucking amazing. It felt good to laugh so hard for the first time in a while. Went with Joseph and Ant.
-Dyed my hair reddish/orange. Expect pictures. =]
-Beat the most awesome video game in the entire world in one day. Game: Indigo Prophecy.
I've done some thinking. Maybe I'll update on here some more. I miss it a lot, even though reading a certain somebody's xanga/myspace makes me cry.
And I've had enough of crying because of you.

Today was one of the worst fucking days ever.
I now realize that there are a certain select few whom I cannot trust anymore.
After going for a visit to the college office, I went to sit back down at the table and realized my bag was gone. [[Thanks to those who tried to help me find it.. and a great big thanks to others who didn't seem to give a shit. Also, not so sarcastically, I should thank Irina and Anthony for doing what they did for me today. I thank you both so much, I don't know what I would have done without either of you today.]] When the bell rang, I decided to report it missing and while doing so, I saw my backpack all opened sitting on a window sill in the center section. My cell phone, mp3 player, and about $5 was missing from my backpack.
I sat in the principal's office for 8th and 9th period, waiting to see if anything came up from questionings that were taking place.
Nothing.
My mom says not to worry about it and that it still might show up. But I don't think so. She even said that since Christmas is coming up, I can get a new mp3 player. But I don't want one.
Whatever.
I'm sitting here. Crying. Not that anyone cares or anything. I hope whoever did this pays for what they did.
