  • i often alternate between feeling like i deserve better than my boyfriend and wondering how i was ever lucky enough to get someone as wonderful as he is. feeling lucky is more common than the other feeling, which is why we're still together. well, that and the fact that i do love him quite a bit.

    he's the only person i've ever had sex with, but before me, he had his share of girls and girlfriends, and i tihnk that's where a lot of my confusion comes from. i wouldn't say that i'm a "vanilla sex" kind of girl, but i know that i'm nowhere near as adventerous in the sack as he is. he was the one who brought up threesomes and anal, and while i did try them, they weren't something i really enjoyed, so he doesn't bring them up anymore.

    now he asked me if i'd ever want to try being swingers. i don't. i really don't. and he simply can't grasp the fact that i do not want to have sex with other men. he's enough for me. and yet somehow, he interprets my reasoning as me saying that somehow he's not a good boyfriend because he does want to have sex with other women. but that's not my point at all.

    he wants to go visit his best friend this summer. i loathe her, and not only because i know she wants to sleep with him. but they watched the entire avatar series together, and they want to see the movie together. so what am i going to do, say no you can't go? i'm not his mother but i really really don't want him to go.

    and in case anyone out there was wondering, the reason i wrote this post now is because when i called him to talk a few minutes agao, he was on the phone with HER, and told me he'd call me later.

    fuck.

  • i'm sitting in my Abnormal Psychology class right now, alternately doing my Adolescent Psych homework, reading the newspaper, paying attention to the teacher, and surfing the net :) i've got my new 1 litre thermos of peppermint tea and raisins in a bag (since i didn't have breakfast) and i'm reflecting on how much i love college.

    i've looked up so many apartments over the weekend that my head is spinning with locations and prices, but i think i've settled on one or two. having researched the price of living on campus, i figured that as long as the total cost of rent and utilities costs less than $418.00 dollars a month, it's cheaper to live off campus.

    i've also realized that if i take a full load of classes until i graduate, i can be totally done with school in 3.5 years. and since i've decided that i want to work a little before i go to grad school, that gives me a whole semester to find a job. score!

  • i toured an apartment today, and i already love it.

    it's a one bedroom, one year old, part of a complex of four about two blocks from campus.
    it has a walk in closet, full size fridge, microwave, and brand new stove with bar seating. it's unfernished and costs about 575 a month, utilities not included. i wanted to show it to my parents this weekend, but the guy who onws them won't be here this weeked. pah.

    i still love it :)
    it has made this day a good day :)

  • i'm going to go crazy soon; i can feel it.

    the classes i have this semester are all wriitng intensive, and every other week it seems like i have tests in all six of them at once. I'm keeping appoximately a 'B' average, but i need to do better to get into a good grad school. working five days in a row was a bad idea too. even tohugh i only work two hours at a time, that's two hours i could be devoting to my homework.

    plus i have to figure out where i'm going to be living next year soon because accoridng to a survey, 90% of units (both houses and apartments) are filled by late november, and i don't want to get the crappy ones that are left over. i've gotten calls from two companies asking me to come look at their properties, and i'm considering making an appointment for sunday so my parents can look at a few one bedroom apartmetns with me while they're here for parent's weekend.
