1:11 am

I'm starting this project at 1:11 am. I just thought the time was cool so I'm going to start it off like that.
I don't really know what I'm ever going to write about, but I'm hoping that I will be able to learn to communicate better by allowing my random thoughts to grace the world in print form.
Today may have been one of the worst days of my life, but its days like these that are going to make my next week, Grand Prix, amazing. I just need to some how make it through until Monday night! The reason I am up, considering blogging, at 1 am on a Saturday morning is because I'm the best roommate ever. I'm waiting to make sure my roommate is OK and gets back safely. I will do anything for her. She is not just my roommate. She is my partner in this crazy Twilight Zone room, she is a fellow Boilermaker, she is one of my best friends, and most of all she is my sister. We've got each other's backs. Its going to be scary to go out for my 21st birthday and not have her in the room within view, but hopefully my bestest friend will be able to be here with me!
As I continue to watch the clock progress, I'm seeing my sleeping hours regress. I told my roommate I'd be up when she got home so this blog could get really long. I have to be up in 5 hours in order to have the busiest day. I start the day by setting up for Mom's day at my sorority at 7. Then I have to go to work at 9 and pray I get off at noon because my mom is coming. Then I believe it will be a well deserved night at AEPi and have tons of fun with my neighbor and her mom!
If I would have started this back at the start of the semester, y'all would have seen a long pattern of me going out. I learned that is not always the best way to spend your weekend, but at the same time, you're only in college for 4-6 years, so live it up with your friends. My friends mean the world to me.
Stephanie: My best friend in the entire world. Even being 3 hours apart, I would never give up a chance to hang out with her.
Lauren: My roommate, my sister, man are we a pair.
Kara: My longest friend. Even after all of high school of not talking and going to colleges 3 hours away, you'd never know we didn't spend all of our lives together!
Kristina (Xina): My roommate for next year. My friend that tells me the straight up truth and will slap me in the face. We keep each other in check.
Janae: There is nothing to describe the relationship between Janae and I. We are just always there when we need each other and nothing is better than a cup of coffee and a lovely walk with her!
Kirsten: My podmate.
I have too many to list, but these will probably come up the most. They are the biggest part of my life at this point in my life. On to my Boilermaker family.
Julie: My little sis. I love her so much! She is fantabulous. I wouldn't trade her for anyone and I would never ever put myself before her.
Sarah: My former little sis, who will always be my little sis if you ask me. She reminds me that life is always a trip.
Shannon: My future little sis, but if life prevents that, still my little sis. I will do my best to always be there for her and do my best to help her. She looks up to me and I hope I never let her down.
If we bring my biological family into this it could get really weird. My family, one that I would never trade for anything, has given me a life of ups downs twists and turns.
My mother: The woman who raised me, mostly by herself, the best she could. She instilled values and morals in me that I only hope I can pass on to my children.
My father: The man who has always been there for me. He never missed a basketball game, volleyball game, award ceremony, lunch date, weekend, cup of coffee. He will never let me forget that I'm worth the world, and if a guy treats me less than that he's not worth my time. I love my daddy more than anyone. I'm the biggest daddy's girl.
Curtis: My big brother. There will never be a replacement for him. I miss him every day. He's my best friend, he is my hero. You don't mess with me and get it past him. I'm always going to be his little sister and he's always going to make sure that I am treated well. If you can't get past my brother, you will not last in my life. He is married to Lindsay.
Mike: My mother's husband. I only hope that I am lucky enough to have a guy that is half as loyal as I have seen this man be. I'm not even biologically his family and he has been through everything my mother has had to go through with me since he has been around.
Lisa: My father's wife. A very humble and successful woman. She is strong-willed and presents her self as confident and sure even if things are going as planned.
Matt: Mike's son. He has a wife, Crista, and two children Carter and Gwen. Matt is the most friendly and outgoing person I have met in a long time. Its nice to see that even with a family and a job, he just loves being around family and people.
Mandy: Mike's daughter. Kindness is the one word that would describe everything about her. Every action she does is full of kindness. She is getting married in October.
Kristen: Lisa's daughter. She is my age, attending Ball State. Very much like her mother, and has a great future ahead of her.
Dustin: Lisa's son. About to be a fellow Boilermaker! We share a birthday, so I guess he can move up to the rank of awesome.
Crazy mess of random family and friends. My life is all about people and I would never change it.
Since my alarm is going off in 4 and a half hours, I'm going to my cold air bed that is more like a nest of pillows...kinda like a cloud.
