huisje gekocht.

Nou het is dan eindelijk zo ver, weg uit deze klote stad, september verhuizen naar mn nieuwe huisje (happy as can be). Weer verhuizen, de afgelopen 5 jaar ben ik al aardig wat keren verhuisd, hoop dat ik nu even blijf zitten waar ik zit. Eens kijken of ik de jongens kan overtuigen dat dit nu echt de laatste keer is :-). Ik hoef alleen te schilderen en dan kan ik er in.... Eindelijk betere vooruitzichten, nu nog de rest van mijn plannen uitvoeren en ik ben weer een eind op weg naar gelukkig zijn..................... greetz van mij.

HAPPY VICTORY DAY

and to all those who don kno wat that is, May 9 th was the 60th anniversary of victory over nazis. don think me weird for posting this, cuz som way or the other all of my relatives who were alive in the years of 1941- 1945 were involved in the war. my grand-father (RIP) became the captain of a destroyer ship on the baltic sea after only one year of academy at the age of 19. my great grand-father (RIP)was involved in the trench war. my grand-mom and her mother and grand-mother were in the city of Dnepropetrovsk when it was occupated. and that is just wat i can think of off the top of my head. so to all of the people who helped us fight, thank u so much. if not for your courage, chances r i would not be here.

Time for a change.

First off, MSN's time is behind an hour. Yeah, I'm in Mountain, but it's 2... not 1. Anyway! I got a new name and all that, basically because I was tired for certain people reading up on me. I love the whole My Space idea, buuuut I wasn't a fan of the fact that some people that really have no reason to know about me were reading my site. I figured heck, why not just get a new name completely??? That's why I opened a new account. In a month, I will have began college. Holy crap... where did those 18 years go??? It makes me sad because it's like... from now on... my life is all about growing up. It's not about being a kid anymore. It's about gettin the degree to get the job to.... well, work. Mom and I have gotten pretty close the last couple of weeks. I don't know what we'll do without each other. She about cries when she brings up the fact that I'm leaving; she said it's not fair that we're so close and now we're gonna be so far away from each other. I feel so sad leaving, but it's not like I'm never coming back. I'm not even sure I LIKE Midland. So far, that's a big N-O. I'll probably transfer to UNL next year, if stuff stays crappy. I don't even wanna GO to college anymore! Mom thinks I'm just getting cold feet. Could be. Today I was packing stuff in the basement that I plan on taking me, and it was so surreal. I can't believe it... I just can't. I don't think it'll hit me til classes start. I'm getting scared because everyone keeps saying how much harder college is than high school. I just hope I can make the grades required to keep my scholarship...... and I hope, even more, that not ALL of the girls are completely stuck up. However, so far, I haven't met many nice ones. Most the guys are kinda weird, too. Hopefully Blockbuster will help me meet a decent guy. Hopefully, even more, I can win over the heart of......... I won't mention names. I will win him over, guys. Lex, I'm gonna GET HIM! Just wait........... Ok, so... new start, new page, might as well do this survey thing. I like doing these. Deal with it lol.

Transit "Peak" hours

It's been a couple days since my last transit post, so I figure it's time to pick it back up with a post about transit "peak" hours. I typically leave the house to go into to work sometime between 8 and 8:30 (sadly, getting me the 12 miles out to Redmond by around 8:45 to 9:20, depending on the day). That's frustrating, but mostly because the buses run a lot but are frequently late. It's not unusual to have 20 minutes with no bus, followed directly by three buses playing leapfrog with one another at each corner. The afternoon is where it really gets irritating. I often leave work somewhere between 6:00 to 7:00pm. Depending on the day, traffic, etc this often means I don't get home until 8 pm or later. Sometimes, even leaving at 5:30pm means I don't get home until well after 7:00pm. Ouch! So what's going on here? Well, of course some days there is a traffic accident blocking SR-520. Those days involve sitting in one place on the bus for 20-30 minutes while they clean up and traffic starts moving again. Ok, so if we had a dedicated transit lane for the bus (or, better yet, a train) this wouldn't be an issue. What else? Well, oftentimes it takes so long to get home because of "Peak" hours scheduling. According to the MetroKC transit website, peak hours are defined as 6am-9am and approximately 3pm to 6pm. AH HA! That means that when I travel in the morning, I'm frequently at the very end of peak time... the time when they actually run a bunch of buses (nevermind that both the 48 bus and the 545 express are both standing-room-only on almost every run in the morning... at least they come every 10-15 mins). Catching the very tail-end of the morning peak period does have one disheartening side-effect: seeing lots of "Base"-bound buses go past before "my" bus arrives. It's not at all unusual to see a couple dozen "East Base" and "Bellevue Base" buses go past (both of Metro transit and Sound transit origin) before the 545 bus arrives. In the afternoon, I almost always fall outside the "peak" time. So I end up waiting 20-30 mins for a bus. Particularly the 48 bus headed south. It's not unusual for the 545 bus to drop me at Montlake transfer stop just in time for me to see my 48 bus pulling away from the stop up the hill on Montlake Blvd. That's the indication that -- since it's after 6:00pm -- I probably have a 20-30 minute wait until the next bus comes past. Even longer if the Montlake draw-bridge is active :) What I really need to find is ridership numbers with an hourly breakdown for metro transit. Hmm..

Diaper Quota

We were told in the hospital and in our birth class that for however many days old Isaiah was, he should go through that many diapers. So a five day old baby should have about fivesoiled diapers. Well, Isaiah is definately an overachiever. I never thought I'd be changing this many diapers per day. So far Isaiah seems to be uncomfortable going to the bathroom unless he has a clean dry diaper. We can't seem to get the timing right, cause everytime we change his diaper, he immediately goes to the bathroom again.

Closer

Graduation is getting closer. Is everyone excited? I'm graduating and I'm going to be out of your lives forever! I already got my cap&gown and all those accessories. I'm just waiting for the tickets so I can give them to people who I want to see me graduate. If it was my choice, I would only invite the people who have really been there for me throughout the year. Not my parents, not my grandparents, but the parents of someone who hates me. The parents are those of Brittany Stewart. Mr. and Mrs. Stewart were always there for me during the year, and I am VERY thankful that they were. But I can't only invite them. I HAVE to invite my grandparents and my parents...oh well...I guess I can do that. I don't have any plans for post-graduation. I have no one to go anywhere with and I do not drink. So after graduation, I'm just coming home and wait for things to happen. I'll get back to you later. Start counting down the days until I'm out of your lives forever.

Family

Today we got some wonderful news.....my niece (who is like my own child) is having a baby!! I am so excited for her and TJ. They will be great parents for sure. Its so hard to believe she is old enough to be having her own baby. I remember the night she was born. Her Mom was laboring in the hospital and Granny and Memaw was there awaiting her arrival. Kay, Larry and I were at home sitting by the phone impatiently waiting for the phone to ring. Larryhad already threatened Kay and I about answering the phone since he was the oldest he would be ansering the phone finally Kay and I gave it up and went to bed. We hadnt been asleep too long when Larry woke us up and told us it was hailing outside. We all went to the door and looked out and seen the hail and to me they looked as big as golf balls it was such a racket. She was such a wonderful person that the world had to announce her coming. I was only 12 but when I held her the first time I felt like she was mine. So beautiful and so like an angel. Rebekah Hope. We love you and want to say CONGRATULATIONS!

Moment to think and reflect

Wow....Summer has flown by... sad. I can't help but think 'I've done nothing this summer!' nothing as in nothing productive, yet maybe I have? I tried to make the best of my summer. I got a job, made new friends, got an amazing boy friend, spent as much time as possible with Aly because she is leaving me, and got to reflect on my life a bit. I can't help but think that this summer has come and gone by as if it were only a day. I can remember Band Camp durinning the beginning of June as if it were yesterday. Sitting on the floor of LMH on the first day, talking to Travis and telling him that he needed to play the trombone with me for beginning band...and that was the start of the best relationship of my life. And I find it hard to beleive, that if that wouldnt have happened, i wouldnt know him, or Becca. And my whole summer would have been different. No going to Webster, no going to Vermillion to watch Becca dance, no 4th of July spent at Mina Lake. No hateing Travis because he got a car for his birthday...again. No Becca.........No Travis........ I can't beleive it. I don't want to beleive that in 2 weeks Aly will be leaving me in Brookings while she goes off to colege in Nebraska, and I will be left without a best friend in Brookings. Sure there is Dan and Joey and John, but I cant talk to them about the same stuff I do with Aly. There will be no more lunch per during school where we sit on the benches with Erin and Nikki laughing till we cant breath. And there will be no more calls from Aly saying 'hey missy, lets go get lunch' or 'missy, we are having a girls night, get over here' and no more laughing out asses off at play practice because of randome 'aly moments' or 'missy moments' of stupidity. No Aly making fun of me because im the fucking dog catcher while she gets to be Grace. Or me being the Tree while she is Cinderella. Going through the Senior Good-Bye line at the end of play was the hardest thing i have done in a long time. I thought i was gunna die when i got to Erin and Aly. Every time Aly and I looked at eachother we just broke down. It was horrible. I dunno how Im going to handle it when its me standing in line while people hug me good-bye. So here I am, a big-bad-senior at Brookings High. Aprox 9 months till I graduate and am thrown into the crazy and confusing world we call 'life'. Am I ready to be out on 'my own'? Can I handle college? Will I change friends and fail out of college? Will I become a whore because i have never experienced what it is like to be out on my own? I would hope not...becides the whole ready to be out on my own..i think i can handle that. I dont want to be like who everyone tells me not to become. I am not my sister, i am not my cousin. I am ME. I hope that i will not change when i graduate, and if i change, i hope to God it is for the better. I dont want to totally isolate myself from the world, as im sure i will try and do because that is my way of protecting myself. I dont want to not call my friends who are still in high school as everyone else has done to me. I want to stay in touch, i want to go to Webster randomly and hang out with my best friends in the entire world. I dont want to become the people that have hurt me the most. I have been used, taken advantage of, and then thrown out of their lives enough times you think i would never do that to anyone and i hope to God I wont. If i ever do, please someone slap me. PLEASE. Anyways....enough reflecting for one night.....that was fun.....and by fun I mean slightly depressing.....oh well. Life goes on right?

An Entry Written From My Phone

I have a Samsung i370 running with pocketpc 2003. Overall I've been very happy with it. The battery life is good. The slide out keyboard is excellent - not just as a keyboard but as a way of answering and unlocking the phone. I signed up for EVDO 3G with no data limit from verizon. This is pretty good with coverage over most of new york. The next step is to write some apps.
