For a minute, I forgot how stupid this thing is....
|
|
| Yes, I'm this bored. |
[27 Oct 2005|10:48pm] |
Wow. I forgot about this thing. I've been so incredibly busy thus far in my sophomore year here at MU that I have little time for anything other than work and school. This week has been the first week I haven't had a constantly hectic day to day kind of week. Right now my hall is decorating for halloweenfest as Kim and I sit here trapped in our room, avoiding getting suckered in by Jen. Seriously, how did we get her as an RA again?
School is going well. Its that point in the semester where my 7 classes are catching up to me and I'm starting to drag and get lazy. I can't let that happen, every grade counts. I've learned that if I want to get into a good PhD program or even a good MSW program, my grades will be critical, and getting accepted into a graduate/doctorate program in Psych is harder than getting into medical and law school. JOY. I can do it hopefully. I love school. I love learning, I'm a dork...I know. This year I'm doing best buddies, psych club and college dems as well. I just want xmas to be here already.
My parents divorce is still on-going. Sucks as usual, whatever...I hate it. This will be my first Thanksgiving, Christmas, Birthday, etc w/o both of them there. It will definitely be different. Blah.
Boy situation...non existant right now and I enjoy it quite frankly. While everyone else on this campus is constantly looking for the love of their life or getting engaged at 19 years old, I'm chilling, focusing on my future, and hanging out. I'm too busy to deal w/ a boy right now anyways. And isn't it so akward for girls at this age because I know I always like to date older guys...but older guys at this age are like 24 and have a real job and a real life...but the guys at school (well not at MU b/c there are no guys) are all getting drunk everynight and being wicked immature all the damn time. Oh well...such is life. I dont mind right now. I dont need that kind of thing in my life right now - even though Brian tells me differently. haha Oh ... Cory is having a kid. I find that hilarious.
Partying when I can...which is every weekend night. Good times had so far this year. Sophomore year is definitely going to be memorable. Going to a couple halloween parties this weekend in Georgetown and such. Sabrina and I finally found a good table for beer pong last weekend! I was so stoked! I love my friends, they are so amazing. I got stuck with my stupid roomate again this year. Oh my gosh...SO AWESOME. Sike Kim, I love you so much its not even funny. Did you think I was being for real?! Sometimes this year MU actually feels like a big campus since there's a lot more people around for some reason. I like it. Although I definitely dont want to go to a big school ever...I love MU and how awesome it is. I just love being in D.C. <3 Although sometimes I definitely miss CT. I'll have to go back sometime.
I really miss a lot of my friends from back home like Jamie, Zachary, Benjamin, Tara, Le, Kren, Brian, Sarah, etc etc. I love you guys. I know I don't keep it touch too often but I hope you understand!
There's this one really random thought that I just cannot get out of my head for some reason. Its really bothering me. Is it because I refuse to believe anything else, or are there really signs telling me that its true? I guess only time will tell. I cannot wait to grow up and have a job and a family and all that great stuff. I love the unpredictability of life. Day to day I dont know what will happen or who I will meet or where I'll end up. I cannot wait to see where I am 5 years from now. Around D.C? Back in New England? Some random ass town in the middle of nowhere? Probably not the last one...haha. I can't wait to make something of my life. I definitely want to mean something to someone and make a difference in a lot of people's lives. Hopefully I can do that someday.
This school year I've really felt like I've grown up a lot. Just little changes that remind me that I'm getting older and maturing and just ... growing up! I love it. I know it sounds stupid, but I'm really finding out who I am and who I want to become and how I want to go about doing that. Life is simply fantastic sometimes.
I guess thats really it for now. This was a deep post as far as LJ goes, so I'm sorry...I was bored and I have no idea where half of this came from. It will probably be my only post for a long time, if not forever. ha.
*love ya'll to death*

| YAY FOR CT |
[23 May 2005|01:26am] |
I'm from Connecticut. Not NY, not Boston, and sure as hell not Jersey. Connecticut. We don't have parkways here. They're highways, and as far as I'm concerned, it's 84 and 91, and that's it. We don't go to bars in highschool. We drive 65 mph to go to the "packy", not the liquor store, but the package store, and we make damn sure we get there before 9. We don't have stupid accents, and we lock our doors when we go to New Haven. We eat grinders here, not subs, not heroes, not even hoagies. We enjoy a good party in the woods. We don't get bunked, hammered, smashed, or plastered here. No, no, we get cocked, and we're damn proud of it. I'm from Connecticut.
BITCHES

[08 Apr 2005|11:35am] |
Dear Marymount University,
As you may have noticed, it has been a balmy and humid 80 degrees here this week. Although you administrators may feel no heat in your cozy, air conditioned offices, us girls in Rowley Hall and the poor boys in Berg are DYING. SO...if you could kindly turn on the Central A.C. sometime this weekend it would be much appreciated, k?
<3 always and forever
C. Castle-Smith
IT'S SO FUCKING HOT IN VIRGINIA.

Holy crap...I'm actually updating...I think this is going to be a real update too.
Well, I'm sitting at work and I'm completely bored. Jamie came to visit me for a while and we chated, God I love that girl, she's definitely become a sister to me! She always makes me feel better and is one of the best listeners ever! Sarah is home from yesterday until Friday - boo. Jill just visited me too - I love my friends :)
Today it was 80 degrees here in lovely D.C. so Sabrina and I decided to go into D.C. to see the Cherry Blossoms. First, we went to Chinatown to get the tickets for Saturday night's game...ya, they were definitely sold out. So now we're thinking of going to a D.C. United soccer game and seeing Freddy Adu...idk if I spelled that right, but he's that 14 year old soccer genius. That is if I dont have to fly home and rescue momma castle...yet another medical emergency, poor momma. Anyways, then we ate at a Thai restaurant...Kamlaya...I have no freaking idea, I have such a bad memory these days, pish posh. Anyways it was so good- I've been eating Thai so much lately, its so freaking good! Had the usual Thai Iced Tea and some Pad See Eu. mmm :) I definitely wanna hit up a Japanese restaurant again sometime soon too! Ok, then we went to the mall (the Smithsonian for all of you non-D.C. residents, not the actual mall lol) and it was so freaking nice out. We caused some trouble in the sculpture gardens and just walked toward the capitol. Later we headed over to Pentagon City, the actual shopping mall b/c I had to get Jamie and Sarah a birthday present. We got back around 5:15 and I was wiped.
I've been sitting at work since 6...boring. Hmmmm...what else? Well, the movers officially finish packing up the Suffield house on Friday. I applied to 10 places this past weekend in Dover, I'm really hoping for either TJ Maxx or Old Navy, that'd be kickin. I just said "kickin"...ignore that. Last night poor Kim brok out in hives and I convinced her to go to the nurse so I wouldn't wake up to a dead roomate...so Caitlin L and I walked her over to the nurse in our PJs haha. Feel better Kimothy.
I hate boys. I think I'm either going to become a nun or a lesbian, whichever presents the better opportunity first. :) Ok, so I'm only semi-serious. Ugh, for real I just don't get it anymore...If you know what I'm talking about DON'T comment on the situation, I don't want things to get around to certain people.
I have SOOOOOO much schoolwork to get done and I only have 12 days of classes left to do it in! CRAP. I have two really big papers. A 10 page research paper on the Scottsboro Boys for EN 102 and Anthony and I have to write another 10 page paper for abnormal psych on "Undercurrents" and put 5 psych journals into context and research and all that shit...great. We HAVE to start that this weekend Anthony!
This year has gone by SO freaking fast, its not even funny. I cannot believe I'll already be a sophomore in college that is absolutely ridiculous. I'm glad that I've kept in touch with the few people from home that I have. SARAH G. I miss you SO MUCH...you deserve an LJ shout out. Next year my schedule sucks but it'll be ok I guess...
-Astronomy
-Astronomy Lab
-Social Problems
-Social Psychology
-Careers in Psych
-Statistics for the Social Sciences
-American Government
I have 6 out of 7 with Anthony and one class with Sabrina!! That should be some great fun... Jamie will be gone the second semester to go to London, I will miss her. Kim and I got a freakin stellar room for next year tho! We scored a third floor alcove!!! HELL YA. I gotta go to IKEA and pick up a desk.
I'm painting my new bedroom red...I am slightly excited...times ten for sure!
Ok, now that I've wasted at least 15 minutes I'm gonna sign off kiddos and find something to do for the next hour and a half before I get outta work! Keep it real guys, and I hope you enjoyed my first substantial post in a LONG ASS TIME.
<3 always and forever,
Castle

I am bored...and stressed...all at once! I just skipped psych class...probably not a good idea seeing as its my major but I teach myself everything anyways. Jamie and I dyed her hair instead and now I'm waiting to see what it will turn out like! Hopefully it will be kick ass or else she will hate me forever. lol I have my English midterm at 8 am tomorrow morning, gross. I also have all my abnormal psych journals due- crap. Then religion, then Momma Castle is coming to pick me up :) I'm excited b/c I miss my parents. Next weekend I get to see my dad while he is in town ! even better! I'm spending Friday night with my mom in Salisbury @ my papaw's house and then Saturday heading up to Dover to see everyone. Sunday Sabrina is picking me up in Wilmington and we are partying @ Sam's house. We just can't tell Nick. That should be pretty awesome. Anyways...I have to go to Ballston, but Jamie needs to hurry her ass up!! lol This entry was totally pointless and I have to go to work later tonight. last night I was forced to listen to the gangsta rap from the fashion show rehearsal and I watched Kim...only twice so I wouldn't mess her up this time. haha Hope she did well on her test, even tho she cheated and turned on the computer. I SAW YOU LOUGH. lol Alright...I'm out!!

[05 Feb 2005|06:37pm] |
Hello all. This is my birthday post. Ya, I can't believe I'm 19- as I've been reminded by almost everyone, I'm getting old. haha. 19 and 20 are the most boring years of the human lifespan I think. What's so special? Absolutely nothing. 2 more years...that's all I have to say. Lets see...
Thursday. My actual birthday. I got dozens of birthday wishes, calls, cards and lovely things from my friends and family! I love my MU crew- they are the absolute best. Big shout out of course to all my CT family- I love and miss you guys sooo much- I'll be home in a month! Anyways, Thursday was nothing special aside from work and classes. Sarah and Jamie baked me brownies and put candles in them and came up to my room singing. They also bought me a "Birthday Girl" crown and balloons. They are some of the best friends I could ever ask for. They truly went out of their way to make it awesome.
Friday. Now that's another story. I had classes, except abnormal psych was cancelled so anthony and I were thrilled and I took a nap! Then I finished up classes and went to Harris Teeter to get some mixers for later in the night. Sarah and I were pretty much attacked by roughly 3 large Mexican gangs. hahah long story. Then I get back to shower and what not and Kim just happens to mention that she will not be attending my birthday dinner. Wow. Can't say that it didn't hurt b/c I know she didn't fight Matt to go. If she didnt want to go she should have said something. Whatever, I'm just really hurt by that and pretty pissed off- I think that's reasonable. So I went and chilled w/ Sarah, then showered, got ready and headed to dinner with Sarah, Lizzie, Jamie and Sabrina. It was really great food, in a beautiful restaurant, great, true, friends...what more could a girl ask for?! Our waiter, Douggie, was really funny- a tad bit creepy and a little too forward, but all in all it was a perfect dinner w/ the people who matter. Did I mention I had to wear the crown in the metro, at dinner, and around Dupont Circle? lol Some French foreigners made the crazy motion at me and a bunch of people stared- they were jealous. lol Partied it up in Rowley and then moved over to Gerard. Caitlin was awesome and let us raid the CMA fridge and we ate fajitas at 230 in the morning. lol After that, I realized I thought I was about to die...and Jamie tucked me in. Thanks guys!
So all in all it was a FANTASTIC birthday. Many thanks to my MU crew and my CT friends. I love you all so much and I am so blessed to have you all in my life :)
Now...I'm on my way out. See ya'll soon.
<3

[30 Jan 2005|06:54pm] |
I've been meaning to write an entry for a while now but better things are happening than stupid livejournal. lol I always sit down to write an entry but then as soon as i get here everything must fly out of my head b/c i have no idea what i wanted to write. Oh well
Life could be better, but that's alright, I'm hanging in there. Momma Castle is having her surgery Feb. 15th, I pray that it goes well. I'm going w/ my dad to Cali for Easter break which should be a nice break from reality.
I stayed in Friday, went out Saturday. <3
I'm doing my big ass psych paper on bi-polar disorder, I think its the most fascinating disease out there- and its affected a few people from my past.
I thought I was thinking about someone but I was mistaken.
Leah is calling soon.
Once again, a pointless post- oh well. Screw livejournal.
<3 always
