Tears of Joy

Wow! Today was so awesome. One of my favorite days in a long time. It was so great to have Chrissy back like that. I have missed her so much, tonite I laughed the first real full hearted laugh I have been able to laugh since she left. Wow...here I am crying now hehe. It was just so great, I hope she doesn't leave again. I don't think I could stand to lose her again. Now I feel like I'm just getting creepy, but she is my best friend, what can one expect? I hope she has a happy birthday! :))

The movie was great, and at first it was even better, b/c it was Josh, Sterling, Brandon, Chrissy, and I and it felt all too right. Then finishing the movie with Brandon holding me tighter and tighter as the movie grew more and more "intense" I guess you could say, was all that more great. And it was wonderful to see Josh with Sterling and happy all at the same time I was able to be with Brandon. All has been so right I never want this time period to end. Josh you can't leave sorry end of story. ;)

***Okay here I get mushy and such so if you don't wish to gag you may skip this part: Tonite kissing Brandon was back to the way it had been before. I don't know what happened but that spark was back. Each time we pulled apart I would have to remind myself to breathe. Lately Brandon and I had hit a tiny rough patch, but here we were tonite, me feeling the way I had before and stronger. ***

Here I go crying again. I don't think I can make it without any of you by my side. Without one there is a piece of me missing. Each of you carry a piece of my heart that no other can open, no matter how hard one tries. Without each of you I cannot be free enough to be completely happy me. I don't know what I will do in the future when we all go our seperate ways. This past week has shown allot of the stress that is to follow, and my baby is the only one that I really know will be there all the way. I just hope we don't allow ourselves to go seperate ways and then never speak again, I don't believe I could handle that. You are the air I breathe, and the existence I thrive on. My own identity has never exisisted in my diverse raisings, but with each person and familiar and put together identity is revealed.

To Josh and Sterling:
I wish you two to be the happiest couple there is. I see how much you two care for one another, even through your differences you do not allow that to affect your love. That is something I could never bring myself to do. If I didn't like something a boyfriend did, I either dumped them, or cringed each time they walked into a room. But you two, complete opposites, but yet identically the same. Your love is a strong vive that glows its rays so that others can feel the warmth presented when their mind is opened to such a new and foreign idea still in the modern world we are in today.

To Chrissy:
I hope you the best of luck in what is to come. I know your love for Robbie is real, for how could something imaginary still have a light this far down the road. I wish with all my might I had the five hundred dollars to grant you on your birthday, and the power to fly Robbie down here and bring him to your front door (with a bow in his hair ofcourse;). I just want to see you happy and satisfied, and I know it can happen one day, all it needs is patience and time. I am not a psychic, nor am I a prophet but I can say that the possibilty of your future together is possible as long as you have patience right now. Understand that as long as he is in yankee town he will not be able to maintain a successful relationship, all that leads to is suspicion and makes the pain between you two that much worse when you think of your distance. If only there was a way to get him back here...for good.

I also really hope we can get you out of this God forsaken town before it completely drives you mad. I still need to go over the criteria of living in Lubbock with you. I really pray you take it into consideration. To have you, Alexa, and Brandon will almost be like it was in the beginning, except minus one :( but atleast we know he is happy right? I really don't think you should try getting Robbie out here until you have settled in a place where you can live happily (which probally wouldn't be Lubbock either) hehe ick, but on that same note you probally don't care if you had to live in Djakarta Indonesia as long as you had Robbie hehe.

Oh ya and one last thing, please don't leave again. The largest piece of me is missing when you are gone.

Love of my life:
My dearest, since November my emotions towards you have been strong and true, although I must admit not too loyal with the time of seperation, and loss of hope of our future in those several months we were apart. For this I have apologized again and again, and here I am again begging your fogiveness. And I also apologize for the Hell that I had created this past week. I did not mean for it to get this way, I just sort of lost control of my sanity for a period of time. At moments I didn't even know where I was, or who you or I were. I stared into emptiness lost in a world of nothing, but no matter what you stuck it out and sat by me. You tried to help and I put you down, and treated you as if you were the enemy, when really I was just jealous. Jealous that you were getting to start a new step in life, and I was still stuck at the same pattern of life I have been the past five years, and not able to go home. On top of that, Grandmother was not making my future decisions easy. I know I know...excuses excuses...i just really think that this past week has been the closest I have ever been to a real nervous breakdown, I have never been so gone, but you were the only thing right, the only thing that held me together. I love you for that, and all other things you do for me. You spoil me sir. hehe. You better never leave me again! You are the greatest guy I have ever known and without you I 1)could not survive 2) I would have to learn to turn out my own lights, run my own errands, clean my own room ;), etc. what ever would I do without you?! lol I love you baby.

I'm sorry I'm getting so mushy on ya'll but right now is one of the greatest times of my life, and I know it will be very short lived and I just want to let you all know just how much you four impact me before you go and live your lives as you did before without realizing how much you mean to me.
Truly Yours,
Jessie

(This was also posted on MySpace with a preferred list of Josh, Brandon, and Chrissy, so Chrissy could read this as well. Love you boyz!)

Summer Blues

Well Grandmother has told me that I have ten days to find a job, which probally means she is shipping me off to Houston. Which I can't admit allowed or else it will cause a big fight, but honestly I really want her to. I could work in the museum which I would prefer over Dr. Tubb's office. I would be able to be with Joey and Clark. And I would be myself again. Day by day I am losing myself here. I am sleeping all the time, or just sitting around with not much to say. I love you Brandon, but you know how much this has been bugging me. Maybe I should just call her and get it over with soon. Ask her if I could get my job at the museum. If it is at the bank, then I do have my draw backs, b/c that would just be stressful. Oh I could just cry right now I feel so empty. Well I better get ready for work.

A rough draft...a note for Chrissy

You have been there since seventh grade, as you like to recall: "The Days of Volleyball Pyramids." But when really focusing on that phrase one can find a much deeper meaning than just a humorous recollection. Pyramids are structures of unbreakable strengths constructed by the ancient Egyptians so that they may gain accass to the God's and reach the heavens above. Unlike the Egyptians, our pyramid is not built without room for faults. A vollyball could slip out at any moment, but no worries, I can always go shag anouther ball to replace the missing piece.

Just in the past few months one of the balls from the base rolled out suddently one day, causing the structure to collapse, with just a few at the bottom remaining in tact. Slowly I am discovering balls to replace those that were lost, but alone this is a difficult task. I don't exactly know what went wrong this time but I need your help in getting my best friend back.

No Architecture?

I'm really considering the College of Education to become a third or fourth grade teacher, I cannot decide which, but that isn't the important decision at the moment now is it? There is no way my sanity can participate in such a stressful job. I will end up in a place like Desert Springs if I work at something so stressful only to become stressed the rest of my life. What is really the point in that? I may be a masochist...but I don't know about all that! ::shrugs:: HELP.

Chrissy

Yet again she called me for another favor ::shrugs:: but I guess that is a start. She wants me to look up scholarships and grants at the school of nursing at Texas Tech. I won't say anything to her, but she may be in some of the same classes as Alexa. Won't that be funny if they are in the same classes? anywayz...I just thought I'd update on my best friend.

Texas Tech Campus

Went to see the campus and everything worked out so perfectly!!!

First: We were fifteen minutes late arriving to the tour, the tour group had already left, but the guy who does the two o' clock tours was able to drive us around campus rather than walk (walk is the tour normally is) and Grandmother can't walk long distances so that was grand!

Second: We went to the housing and:
Grandmother said "We would like a room that doesn't have a bathroom down the hall."
The Lady: "All we have a community bathrooms, and we don't assign rooms until mid-June" Me: "Not true, you have Murray hall you are constructing and..."
The Lady: "Mam that is not for fresmen" (EVERYONE assumed I was a freshmen there. That was always there first question, are you excited about being a freshmen?! ugh)
Me: "Mam I am not a Freshmen, I am a tranfer."
The Lady: "Oh, we can sign you right up for a room in Murray. Construction won't be finished until August so I can't show you the dorms. You will be in room 146 B. And that will be an addition two hundred dollars down."

Isn't it great compared to Clarks?! http://www.housing.ttu.edu/newhall/plans.php

Third: An appointment was made for me to talk to the College of Architecture counselor. In the room was me and two other prospective students. I found out that I take my beginning architecture classes next fall and spring and then with that school years work I make a portfolio, and a council looks at my portfolio and GPA to decide whether or not I may proceed into architecture. I"m so excited!

Well I guess that is about it...Grandmother and Granddaddy loved the campus so that is the best news of all. :)

Grandmother is expecting me to drop out of college by next year. It doesn't upset me...I'm just shocked.

Sunday, May 15, 2005

Maybe its just me and Nothing else, I realize today that everyone is leaving and I will be the only one in Midland. But iguess it gives me time to work and then Focus on school. I cant wait to get out of school and move out of theis hell hole. Grandmother is still here, I think everything is going ok but im not sure. I am hoping everything is all right.

To both of you, you are both the only two I have to depend on...

I changed my color for you
I shed my coat with caution
I lack the beauty you display
See here there are the bruises
And some were self-inflicted
And some showed up along the way
So i nod my head
Im ready for the world to see
The secret i kept here inside the man you thought id be
Slip into coma calm
The coma where i calm myself down
Here comes excuses why i let you down

Stand by for another breakdown
Sound off the alarm
Is this the chameleon boy i swore i wouldnt become
Chameleon boy
Chameleon boy

So now weve come upon the hardest thing ive ever done
Its telling you that im a mess
What sort of mess i mean
Is self-destructive gasoline
The kind that strips you of your best
And while i play insteadthe way that most would end up dead
You sleep alone at home and wish that i was in our bed
With this im telling you
My color changes back to blue
How do i ask you this
Will you help me through

Stand by for another breakdown
Sound off the alarm
Is this the chameleon boy i swore i wouldnt become
Stand by for another breakdown
Sound off the alarm
Is this the chameleon boy i swore i wouldnt become
Chameleon boy
Chameleon boy

I try to think of all the people i look up to
Or growing up who would i be
Now the twisted part
Whered all my idols end up
They all passed away
Passed away

Each time I see your face.....

I love you so much and I am so glad to have you I have been talking to my grandparents and I feel more disscouracged the longer I sit with them, I feel like crying but I have to go to school, I cant stand them any longer I really want someone to talk to love you Jess You are all I have and I am so glad you are trying to help through such a hard time. I need to get out of this house and I cant wait to spend my life with you. I know how you feel about the whole Christy thing and everything is going to be all right. and the B in history is nothing you will do fine I know it may take you another semester before you will really feel happy were you are, but when you get there you will make a great architecht I love you baby and dont give up I love you with all my heart.

Love

Lesbians...

Okay so I'm a lesbian for an entire summer, and bisexual until just a little over a month ago and all I could find at the time was Misty and almost Wendi. Now all the sudden all these girls on myspace are finding interest in me. i.e.: " HOLY FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!! your realy realy sexc!!! hehe wow.. wanna chat?!?!" ::sigh:: o well I'm happy where I am.

Bum Deal

I Made a B in History. :( ::sigh:: o well atleast these grades will improve my GPA none the less, just no 3.0 for Jessie this semester. Tonite was an over all good night. Washed the cars, two down one to go, reading magz with Josh was like one of the highlights of my night, and then being able to have a boyfriend to hold you and allow you to cry on his shoulder is the greatest gift in the world.

I felt really stupid, and still do, but I feel better letting all that out. It's just that I miss Chrissy so much, and it was so strange that she showed up today, b/c this morning when I was driving to school it got really really bad. I realized this would be my first summer without her to do crazy and random things with. Even today it just seems as if she just doesn't want to be my friend really, I try desperately to get her attention but she just treats me like I'm just some person rather than someone who was once a best friend.

::shrugs:: o well. I was looking at the curriculum for a masters in architecture, and historical preservation and found that none of my classes really count. All you take for five years is architecture courses I'm just wasting time. Kind of depressing that i've done all this work...and achiev nothing. All you need is six electives off the approved list of the architecture department. O well. I just need to get started asap with all the classes they have piled up!

Tiredness...

I studied for History, but I don't know if it did any good seeing I'm so tired I have the memory of a goldfish. I am doing so far so good.

McLite A
English A
Algebra P
Government B
History ?

If I make an A in History I will have the GPA to try to transfer into Architecture before fall...but if not there is always Spring I suppose. ::sigh::

Well off the bed now. Night boys.

This Weekend

This weekend WAS wonderful. No I didn't get much studying in, but lately I just could really care less. I'm still kind of upset over that 80 I got in HIstory. And I know I won't be able to ever understand government...so here I am with memories of a wonderful WONDERFUL weekend. No nothing we did was just amazing, but we had eachother. Kind of like playing house I guess. Holding one another until I was nearly unconscious, working on a puzzle together, watching movies together, driving to lamesa and visiting family,taking Chase out for a bit. Just to have him there with out anyone else to really bother us was wonderful. It was like our own little get away at home I guess hehe. I love you Brandon Elliott!!!! Who would have ever pictured this in Junior High?! I hope you get well soon Joshua, and if you are not sick yet, I hope you get sick soon, so you can get over it sooner...hehe(or I guess not sick at all would be good too!) . I hope you had fun in Austin.

Okay, I think I'm going to try to work more at Dr. Tubbs. That way I still have flexible hours (which means I can go on trips through the summer), and I will be getting paid. Maybe I can make allot of Charts, or make allot of copies tomorrow. Mom has been training me to do more lately. Maybe they will let me keep books, seeing that is what I have been getting really trained in lately, seeing Nancy is always sloppy in doing it...but who knows? If you two know of a job with flexible days that is office work please let me know. hehe. Seeing I know ya'll don't need jobs at all ;)

SO I woke up and was lik OH NO what time is ti? looked at the clock 8:09, "Great one minute before Chris is tardy." So I leapt out of bed thinking "I'm hoping they are dressed." Go in there room, no one, run to the living room...no one...I guess mom or david took them really really early. I'm still taking it hard. MY stomach still hurts as does my side I just need to calm down.

Tuesday, May 03, 2005

Hey there

Today started out really great! I was at complete calmness and sanity with my worries. But tonite it started again. I'll just pray it off. I know God will take care of me in this time of need. He will allow what is best.

You are all I have left...don't ever let go

Wow it must be a season for depression. We are all three depressed. Now we need one another more than ever. Big decisions have to be made, big changes are about to happen. Stress is all over the place. I worry too much about things and don't talk about them. Josh has to decide what to do with his life. Brandon is afraid. I love you guys. You two are all I have left. Please don't ever let go. Chrissy is a nervous wreck, I read her away messages and her blogs, and i just want to be there for her like I used to be, but she doesn't want me to. And that hurts. still. ::sigh:: But atleast I have you two, and I know ya'll will never just randomly get mad at me one day over random stuff and wish to never really be my friend again. hehe. ;) Love you guyz...have I said that too much?

OOOIES!!! You have got to see this!!!

The difference between butter and margarine?

Both have the same amount of calories, butter is slightly higher in saturated fats at 8 grams compared to 5 grams. Eating margarine can increase heart disease in women by 53% over eating the same amount of butter according to a recent Harvard Medical Study.

Eating butter increases the absorption of many other nutrients in other foods, butter has many nutritional benefits where margarine has a few only because they are added! Butter tastes much better than margarine and it can enhance the flavours of other foods. Butter has been around for centuries where margarine has been around for less than 100 years.

Now for Margarine, very high in trans fatty acids triple risk of Coronary Heart Disease, Increases total and LDL ( This is the bad Cholesterol), Lowers HDL cholesterol and this is the good one, Increases the risk of cancers by up to five fold, lowers quality of breast milk, decreases immune response, and decreases insulin response.

And here is the most disturbing fact......

Margarine is but one molecule from being PLASTIC..... (This fact alone was enough to have me avoiding margarine for life and anything else that is hydrogenated, this means hydrogen is added changing the molecular structure of the food.)

You can try this for yourself, purchase a tub of margarine and leave it in your garage or shaded area, within a couple of days you will note a couple of things, no flies, not even those pesky fruit flies will go near it, (that should tell you something) it does not rot, smell differently... Because it has no nutritional value, nothing will grow on it, even those teeny weeny microorganisms will not find a home to grow... Why?

Because it is nearly plastic. Would you melt your Tupperware and spread that on your toast?

::Yawn::

Just finished my paper. ::sigh of relief:: It's not the greatest and I didn't really fix it that much from what she wanted but it is a paper, and I have so much fucking xtra credit in that class it doesn't really matter. What she going to do? Give me a B? O well I'm not getting my 3.0 this semester, I've already accepted this fact.

I'm feeling better this morning. I don't know what was wrong with me yesterday. It was odd.

Odd I have been saying that allot. Slap my hand next time I say it...I dont really like the word, reminds me of Ben. That is what the doctors diagnosed him with, "Ben you're odd." Speaking of Ben, have they shown Beauty and the Beast yet, I was half way interested in attending. But I didn't ever see anything on it.

My trip was awesome as ya'll know. We most definantly need to go out there sometime. They have star parties on Tuesdays Fridays and Saturdays. I'm really hungry. I think I'm going to get ready then call Brandon. He wanted to take me out today.

I hope I get to see Sterling while he is in town, seeing he will be in town the same time as Grandmother. How long is he staying?? hmmm...we could go on a double date Friday night...she doesn't come in until Saturday afternoon. Well i'm out...gotta get ready for a date.
