Oh my gosh...i so never write in this anymore since i got a myspace account. but anyways, just thought i would update ya all on a few things. the semester is coming to an end soon, and im so stressed about my research class. i need to bring up my grade. right now i have a C, which isnt horrible, but social work is my major and i want to do better than that. the rest of my classes i am doing fine in though. so yeah, basically my life has consisted of work, work, and more work between school, interning, and mennonite home. im awaiting the thanksgiving break :) anyways, i can't make this long but i promise to write more asap. just wanted to end this xanga by thanking shawn for being so patient with my school crap and getting moody at times...he is the greatest boyfriend :) i heart him hehe. my thought for the day is: "in times of trouble, there is always someone that has your back."

Hey I have been told I need to update this so here goes nothing lol :) Anyways, hope everyone is enjoying being back at school (if thats possible hehe). I started back about 3 weeks ago and I'm already loaded with work since its my senior year. They are definitely not being easy on us :) Right now I have Research 2, Practice 3, Family Violence, and Human Behavior and the Social Environment. They are all a lot of work especially Practice 3 since that is the course most focused towards my internship. I have 3 course papers to write for that one alone plus field journals of my experiences.  The other 3 classes arent too bad but are still alot of work. I am limiting myself to karoke no more that twice a week rather than 4-5 times a week hehe. It's the only social thing I ever really do anymore besides see movies occassionally. Let me know if anything good comes in cause right now I don't see much. Anyways, I still work at Mennonite Home but only twice a week and every other weekend since my course load is full and i am interning as well. Plus, I need to have some kind of a life, right? :) Well, thats my update. Sorry it was so boring. Just wanted to let ya all know what I've been up to lately. Hope everyone is enjoying college, high school, or full-time work....whatever it is :) Love ya all. My thought for the day is: "Who's Bill Bellamy?" I know one person in particular that will get that one.

Love ya,

Erin

Hey everyone :) Hope your all having a great week. I have been working a lot and basically catching up with friends. I actually am looking forward to school starting so I can see all my old friends and chill at the ville lol :) Anyways, tonight I am probably hanging out with Brandon and then my parents leave tomorrow for 11 days. I don't know what I will do during that time...probably just the usual working and hanging with friends lol. I have gotten to know Bill alot more the past week. He is a really great guy. We have a lot in common and have so much fun together. I am taking things really slow right now, as I just got out of a really serious relationship and don't want a commitment. We are hanging out and seeing where things lead basically which is cool. When school starts up I need to get back on my old sleeping schedule which will be an adjustment lol. Luckily, I can still do karoke on Tuesday nights since I only have Tuesday and Thursday classes hehe. I love karoke. It's funny cause I recently came out of my shell more, as I used to be so shy and never could get up and sing in front of people. I am a lot more relaxed now, and alcohol always helps lol. So yeah, I am definitely trying to make changes and not be so hesitant and worried of things all the time. Change can be a scary thing, but my friends and family have been very supportive of my choices and I am really grateful to have them in my life. Thanks guys...you know who you are! :) Well, im going to get going for now. I will write more later. Have a great night everyone. My thought for the day is: "Do not stress about the present time, for the best is yet to come :)

Hey everyone :) Hope you all had a great weekend. I have been keeping pretty busy in the past few weeks. I have been working alot more hours and going out almost every night. Today I went to Mount Gretna and tanned on the beach and walked in the lake a bit. It was fun although I got burned but ah well....at least I have more color now :) I was literally a ghost. Anyways, I met this really awesome guy named Bill on myspace. He goes to my school and we have a lot in common so we met up on saturday night. We had a blast and decided to go stargazing last night. I can't say I ever hung out with a guy who enjoyed stargazing but it was definitely a first for me. It is so refreshing to be single and get to know people with similar interests and views. It seems as if I never got to do that while I was in relationships. I have been getting help in therapy and working on my self-esteem alot because I figure this is all we get...just one life and we need to make the most of it. I can't dwell on the past anymore and whats done is done. It would be nice to mend some broken relationships from my past but the way i see it is that if something is meant to happen it will, and I can't force it. I found out some information about an old friend the other night(won't say the same cause i don't think they would want me too). Anyways, it is someone I cared for long ago who I lost contact with. I was worried about them as they were going through a rough time for a while when I knew them. I hear they are picking up the pieces nicely and have started a new life. As unhappy I am that they couldnt tell me that themselves, I figure it is for the best and im glad that things are working out for them. I was watching VH1 the other day and a music video came on and i immediately wrote down the chorus asap cause i thought it reminded me of myself in a way. I'm not sure who wrote it but maybe someone can help me? The chorus goes: "I tear my heart open, sew myself shut. And my weakness is I care too much." Very direct and to the point, but who sings it is the mystery lol. Well, I guess I will be going now. Leave me comments/love people! Greatly appreciated for those that do. :) Peace out and have a great night. My thought for the day is: " Let go of the past, and take pride knowing that God has a plan for your future."

Hey Everyone.....I know it has been a while since I wrote in here. A lot has changed lately. First things first. Chris and I are no longer together which is a major adjustment but I know that it is for the best right now. I cannot predict the future but I hope we can eventually talk again one day. As for everything else, I am enjoying my summer and am putting in a lot of hours at the Mennonite Home. I don't mind the job too much, since the people there are very cool and fun to talk to. I can't wait to begin my internship in the fall since it will be my last year as a college student(sad, but true). I still have a lot to set up in regard to everything involved with the internship and want to get as much done this summer as possible so I can start in the fall without alot of paperwork and crap to deal with. Well, I'm gonna hit the sack. Sorry this is so short. I will write more as time permits. Hope everyone had a great weekend and it enjoying their summer :) My thought for the day is:" In the end, the only person you can trust is yourself."

Erin :)
