Hot Fuss

   Grrr....I love going on trips, but I absolutely hate packing for them! I always seem to forget something extremly vital......usually deoderant or toothpaste, much to the dismay of my fellow travelers.....I've tried the list route and everything; nothing works. I'm thinking maybe the fact that I tend to pack about an hour before I go anywhere may lend to my forgetful tendencies, so for Camp Gray, I've actaully started packing today....Imagine that y'all....! Although old habits are so engrained into me, and thus very hard to break, so we shall see....
  After I get the packing out of the way, three awesome weeks of meeting new friends, eating food cooked for you, and hanging out with little kids who utterly adore you, imperfections and all.....who could ask for anything more I'd say...?! I hope to even out my splochy trucker tan going on over one arm, and hopefully get some soccer and cross country training in even though the days at camp are going to be jam packed.
    Tonight I'm off to a Harry Potter party with a bunch of friends....my friends thought it would be fun to dress up with black capes and scars drawn on our foreheads, but that seemed like a little much for me....It should be fun!
   Hope you all have a great three weeks!

I thought this weekend was going to be a weekend where I finally got to take a much needed break from my chaotic lifestyle, but no such luck.....there's always things to do, friends who want to hang out with me, and just everyday demands that simply cannot be neglected....such is the life of Jesse....I have to admit though, it's not like anyone else created my busyness; life is what you make it, and I most definately brought all activity on myself, and I really do love living life to the utmost fullest, and relishing every moment.....I wouldn't have my life any other way than brimming over with activities, and jam-packed with people I love! Perfect combo I'd say!
   On Friday, I finally worked up my weak and puny nerves to go and get my belly button pierced! I've been wanting to do it all summer, and I decided it was either now or never; you only live once ya know! I dragged Katie along for moral support ( and to revive me when I fainted) and we headed off early Friday morning. I arrived at Steve's only to find that Blonde Jesse had left her ID at home! So I drove all the way home with Katie to search for my driver's license.......Let's just say rummaging around my room is like an archeological dig; you never know what you might unearth.......After an hour of searching, no driver's license was in sight, so I grabbed my passport, and headed out the door. Needless to say, I was a  shaking nervous wreck by the time I arrived, and the employees adorned with full body tatoos and execution-style chairs weren't aiding in  calming my distraght nerves in the slightest. I signed a form that basically said that I might die, and that I couldn't sue if I did. I was shaking so violently, my signature look like a dog I tried to draw in kindergarten. I laid down on the vinyl green table, and squeezed my eyes shut and braced myself for the ungodly sharp pain to come.
     I opened my eyes to find a barbell stuck through my navel, and only a little pinch of pain to go with it. I smiled a shaky smile laden with bravery, and headed proudly home with Katie, glad I had withstood the biggest test of my bravery I've ever been confronted with.
    The rest of the weekend was the epitome of good times for sure! My parents had gone to the cabin for the weekend along with my brother, so I had the whole house to myself! I get lonely easily so Mikaela said she'd love to come spend the weekend at my house, even though she lives like 15 min. away! Friday, a bunch of us headed to Summerfest to go see Marc Broussard ( kinda like Gavin Degraw, only not), and do some serious shopping there! I met an amazingly interesting guy on the bus on the way there, and had sucha blast dancing and falling off the bleachers from laughing so hard! I ate so much greasy food there that I'm sure I put on a dangerous amount of weight; it was insane! Rory and I got there soooo early, so we had fabulous seats for the whole nite.....good times!
     Saturday was ......ummm.....interesting.... Mikaela, Anna and I went to the Farmer's Market to babysit a girl there, and then hiked around the Art Fair on the Square! The art was sooo pretty; I really wanted to take it all home for my dorm room next year, but it was waaay to expensive! I saw a ton of random people I know there too, which is always fun! The thai food I ate for lunch there from a small booth was def. out of this world and quite authentic too! Sat. nite is when I really took advantage of my parent's being gone. I admit, my conscience felt slightly guilty, but the opportunity for a party was just too good to pass up! Mikaela and I made an awesome picnic, and then headed to the drive in movie theater  with a bunch of friends to go see " Batman Begins"! We got really lost and were really late, so I spent the whole movie explaining the important plot points to everyone......so funny! Christian Bale is so gosh dern hot...!
   So I thought all we had to drink at the movie was water, but apparently one of the guys who came with us brought a huge bottle of Captian's, so by the time the show was over, a few people were pretty far gone. I drove home, and then that's when the party really got started!
   We played some strip poker, which was really fun for awhile, and then attempted DDR, which was really hard when intoxicated I found out ( I failed miserably!)! Then at around 3am, things started to get a little rough. One of my friends drank a bit too much, and forgot to eat before doing so, and thus got really trashed and sick on my bathroom floor! I spent the rest of the night after that helping her......I was really afraid for her too because she's hardly ever drank before, and she def. had a lot of shots! I kept trying to get her to drink water to prevent dehydration, and she kept getting sick all over me......By the time the morning came around, she finally fell asleep, and I had hardly slept any! It was definately a fun party I guess, but I really hope she doesn't get sick again like that; I don't know if I've ever been so scared in my life!
     The rest of the week should be good times! I need to spend a ton of time getting ready for Camp Gray on Sunday afternoon, and then Mikaela and Katie want me to go to a Harry Potter Party on Friday at midnite, and then to Maxwell Street Days on Sat......should be fun!

The Early Years: 1997-2000: The Legend Of Chin/New Way To Be Human/Learning To Breathe [Box

 The desire is inside of me although I cannot pinpoint it It is burning there like a constant flame never able to be smothered, glowing in the internal ebony. At times, it wells up inside and the pressure is painful .I think I know myself, but then I'm too afraid to look inside,to confront myself head on like a raging bull . I think the puzzle is put together inside but how can it be when I can't uncover all the pieces? I must revisit my heart, I must search my soul, I must find my deepest wishes. I must find my dreams; I must encounter me.

Here's something I wrote when I was like 10; it's amazing how true it rings in my life now as well as 8 years ago. I guess some things never change.


To all my soccer buddies doing hardcore training this summer, there will be NO PRACTICE tomorrow morning 'cuz Nate is still going to be out of town! So kick back, relax, and enjoy your day off y'all!

Yesterday was most def. good times! I spent a few hours talking on the phone to friends I haven't been in contact with for waaaay too long, and then got to hang with Mikaela and her friend Brianna and go running and make jean skirts till like 1 am.....good times! It was hilarious though, cuz while I was running, Brianna and Mikaela hid behind a car, and as I ran by, they jumped out from behind the car and scared me to death! I screamed "HOLY SHIT!" really really loud cuz I was so scared, and then ran over into a bush to hide cuz I thought they were strangers ( it was really dark so I couldn't tell...)...then they came running towards me and hugged me, and I knew who they were at once....I was still scared and really jumpy for the rest of the night though.....it was really funny!
    I've decided that the thing that bugs me most in the world is when you're trying to tell a story, and people keep interrupting you with their stories. For example, yesterday I was talking on the phone to one of my friends, and attempting to tell her about this one really good movie I'd seen, and she kept interrupting with, " Well this one time, I saw this really good movie....." She kept making the conversation about her, and I got really fed up.....She was being really egocentric.......She's an awesome person, and I guess since I haven't talked to her in months, I kind of forgot about her annoying idiocycracies, and focused in on her good traits.....oh well, I guess we all have our kwirks....I'm sure there's things that she can't stand about me, but we're still good friends regardless....
     Today's pretty blah I guess. I have to clean the whole house because my parents are going away for the weekend, and they say that's the price I have to pay in order to have my friends come and spend the weekend here while they aren't home.....oh well, it's def. worth it!
   This weekend should be a ton of fun, no doubt! Tomorrow I'm going to get my belly button pierced with Katie in the morning, and then headed to Milwaukee with like 5 friends to go to Summerfest and see Marc Broussard. Mikaela's going to spend the weekend her with me I guess, which'll be fun! On Sat., I'm headed to the Farmer's Market really early, and then babysitting in the afternoon! I actually convinced Mikaela to go with me and some other friends to a drive in movie at night, and I think we're going to have a picnic there too, which will be a BLAST!
