Yesterday I woke up with an allergic reaction to some medicine I was on, so now I'm on prescription strenght benedryl and it is kicking my ass. So yea, it's 5:20 and I just woke up. My sister came over here around 1 and made me lunch. Other than that, I pretty much slept the day away. I'm due for some meds now but don't want to take them yet so I can stay awake for an hour or so.
This weekend is going to be fun. Friday night I'm having a bon fire. Saturday I'm headed to the baltimore aquarium with Dorie, Kahsan, Justin, Alicia, Shawn, and maybe some others. It should be a fun day. Hopefully I'll be better by this weekend or else I won't be able to go cause I'll need to take steroids. OK well I'm all shakey and shit and this is kinda difficult to type so I'm out.
One more day :)

Its been a while and I'm bored so I guess I'll update quick. School has been going pretty good. I like it a lot. This semester has gone soo quick... its almost over. Passed all my midterms and got a B on my one big midterm paper, so that is good. Ashley, Phuong, Abby, Bridget, and I are gonna start looking for apartments for next year. Phuong, Ashley, and I looked a little bit tonight and found some nice houses that are affordable, so we're pretty excited.
I MISS MY GIRLS BACK HOME!!! I'm coming home this weekend so I think I'm gonna have a bonfire Friday or Saturday night... you bitches better be there. Mom and sister will be gone, so get ready to PARTY!
Today was absolutely beautiful @ school. I got sun burn from being outside all day. I love it. Hopefully this entire week and weekend will be just as nice.
I have writers block so I'm out. (wish i could say that with college midterms. oh well)

So lots of shit has gone down lately but I don't really feel like typing all that much. I moved to West Chester and so far it's been a blast. Roomate's cool and I've meet a lot of cool people and found some cool PARTY'S!! And in my spare time I attend class, which isn't all that bad, if I feel like it.
Before I left for WCU a bunch of us girl's went out to celebrate Dorie's birthday @ club Shampoo. Nicole, being the excellent dramatic writer she is, describes this night the best. check it out : www.livejournal.com/users/aquarianqueen

Leave some lovin'

Wow. College is eight days away. I'm soo excited to get away and meet new people. I called my roomate today and she seems cool. So far things are going smooth and I have pretty much everything packed except for my clothes and that last minute stuff. I can't wait. BUT... I will miss my girls. I was with Dorie the other day and just like started crying for no reason, haha. I was like "Dorie, I'm gonna miss you!" And the same with Steph... we haven't been like seperated since like birth. haha

So a lot has happened since my last update. Like Dorie and Nicole, I'm just gonna make a list...
-Summer lovin :)
-cabin with my cousins... entire weekend of drinking, like seriously, i took shots as soon as i woke up
-party'd like every night for two weeks straight- def. some fun times were had
-chilled with my curt a few times, but not enough :<( had one awesome night... "She's probably up in her room winning scholorships"
-Dorie was hospitalized for picking hehe, so i've been visiting her @ her house in the morning
-went to WCU a few times to visit my sister... cleaned her room for her and other fun stuff like that (NOT)

Tomorrow I'm going to Knoeble's with all my baby cousins. They are so incredibly cute so it should be a fun day. OK well I'm out.

So this summer so far has had its ups and downs. Graduation was good. After party was fun-- won a comfy computer chair w/ wheels so that will be nice for my dorm. Senior week was AWESOME. All of us girls went wild... I had such a blast. Hung out on the boardwalk all night, met people, went to some random party's, walks on the beach, watching the sun rise, and sleeping all day. I couldn't have asked for a better time. Also became a professional jello shot maker with Ashley.

So the thing that sucks really really bad about this summer is that I've been working 40 hours a week at a factory AKA sweat shop. I hate my job soo bad. After work I just come home and sleep, wake up, feed the horses, then go back to sleep. Friends call me and want to hang out but I'm soo exhausted and just don't feel like it. So I've seen very few people this summer, minus this past week because I had off the entire week, which was very nice. Did a lot of shopping, partying, watched the fireworks, and just hung out with friends that I haven't gotten to see much this summer.

I had orientation the other day at West Chester. It was long and boring, but it def. made me really excited for school. I got my schedule, which is pretty sweet. My earliest class is 9:15, which is great. Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday I have three classes a day. Thursday I have one class and Friday I have one class, and my Friday class is from 10-!0:50, so I have like tons of free time. The only thing that sucks about my schedule is that I have class from 7-10 on a Tuesday night, and it's philosophy, so that will be a little rough.

OK well I'm out to go swimming for the afternoon at my aunt's house. PAYCE <3

Dorie- Do you remember this night?

I sure don't. HAHA random entry.

So I haven't updated in a while. I guess I'll start way back at NEED camp. It was an awesome week. The other counselors and teachers in my cabin were pretty cool, and all of the girls behaved really well. My trail group leader was Mr. Lowe which was awesome and the other counselor was Alex Wolfe. We had some hilarious times with our trail group-- especially with the bird watchers. The one day during quite hour Alex and I just started laughing about those gay birdwatchers and their 'binocs' and we just couldn't stop. A teacher was complaing how our trail group was so loud during quite hour and we blamed it on the kids, but it really was just Alex and I cracking up. This stupid birdwatcher was like hugging a tree and all of a sudden threw his feet up in the air and he was laying perfectly horizontal in the air. Just picture it. It was hilarious. How the f'ck do you do that?!?! Counselor time was also incredibly funny. Dan was cracking the jokes and had everyone rolling. What made it even funnier was Fraz cracking up and rolling on the floor. Fun times. Thursday night was the best night. After counselor time was over we all snuck out and had some fun. My teachers knew we were up to something so they thought'd they play along and lock us out. NOT COOl! haha it was funny though once we all found out that they didn't care.
So when I got back from NEED camp my sister's boyfriend, Jason, spent a week with us. He's really cool and amazing at guitar. Every night we had a bonfire and he sang and played guitar and I didn't go to bed till like 2ish. Hence the fact that I'm currently failing chemistry and NEED to pass so I can wear my yellow NHS sash at graduation. Weber's been a total bitch to me and flips out on my all the time. It used to bother me but I'm kinda numb to it now and I just laugh it off. I should be passing once I get all my work in that I missed from NEED camp.
So this past weekend was prom. I actually had a really good time. Tony and I showed up fashionably late, haha, and got stuck with some REAL cool kids at the dinner table, but it didn't really matter because we didn't really eat much anyways. After prom we went to Bryan's house, which was a blast. Everyone was soo messed up, it was hilarious. I actually wasn't too bad, it was the first time I drank in a while and didn't puke. Dorie taught us all how to play a card game, but I forget what it was called. It was really fun and f'd us all up majorly.
So this week has gone by incredibly too slow and I cannot wait for school to be over. Eleven more days, or something like that left... AWESOME. Then graduation and senior week... ahh I <3333 the summer.
Well the bell's about to ring so I better get going.

Yesterday, as most of you know, we had a two hour delay. I wake up around nine and realize I forgot to write my research paper. So, needless to say, much to my delight, I did not go to school. Instead, I did some homework in the morning and then went to the barn and rode and stuff. What a horrible way to spend a day I'm supposed to be at school...
The senioritis is BAD. Real bad. I don't remember the last time I did homework. My grades are shit. But honestly, I don't give a damn. Just a few more weeks and I'm never showing my face at Conrad Weiser High School again. After graduation is senior week, and then I'll get a taste of the "real world" working forty hours a week. The thought of that doesn't really bother me though because I'll be making a shit load of money.
Well I'm out. PAYCE

This past weekend was awesome. Friday after school I rode my friend's horse for a while and worked with the new baby for a little bit. Then later on that night me and Brandon had some friends over and we had a bon fire. Good times.
Saturday Steph and I went to Grings Mill. We ate some lunch and laid out in the sun for a while. Then we went to Blue Marsh and laid on some more. It was so beautiful outside. Then later on that night I went over to Bryan's for a little bit with the crew. We watched Office Space and just chilled. Sunday for some reason I woke up bright and early and went for a jog. Then I went shopping at Kohl's in Lancaster and got pretty much stuff. When I got home I went to the barn and fed the horses and worked with the baby again for a while. She's adorable... see for yourself ~ http://community.webshots.com/user/eld2187
OK well I'm sitting here writing this in class right now so I better get going before I get caught. PAYCE
