| Update?!So...where do I begin?
Let's see....
TC and I broke up over the summer....
I started dating Eric, who I thought was perfect. I met him at work and he is majorly cute. I really liked him, but he has this "never grow up" thing going on right now and all he wants to do is party. I'm obviously not that kind of girl so he broke up with me, but we're still friends. I was pretty crushed when that ended...I'm talking like not eating or sleeping ever. I was miserable. But I'm okay now.
Then I seriously pissed off someone I kinda love. Well, always loved really. You may remember him..Chris. I didn't mean to. I was just in a seriously weird mood and didn't really wanna be around anyone but yeah. I think I ruined that one forever which makes me really sad. It's almost his birthday and that makes it worse. We've spent every one of his birthdays together since we've known each other, which is like 4 years. Crazy huh? The time flew..but now it's over and that really hurts...
I also thought about moving back home to Wichita for a bit. I don't know what happened but over Spring Break I really missed being home. So I decided to say "fuck it" and transfer to WSU and live with my Mom. I had it all figured out and everything. But then I decided that that would be running away, which I ALWAYS resort to and that it wouldn't be very mature of me. So I'm staying. I am going to finish what I started even though it's awfully tempting to take the easy way out and go home. But oh well. Hopefully things get better here in Lawrence and I'll realize that I never really wanted to leave. Who knows.
But yeah. Getting ready for finals soon and last minute tests and such. And working as always. I'm a workaholic. lol. So see ya later. It was kinda nice to update this thing for once. Too bad Facebook is the new fad.
<3 Always,
Kristen

| LeavingI packed up the last of my room today...It was really sad. I have nothing left but my refrigerator, my computer, and the stuff I'll need for tomorrow. So sad. I don't want to leave yet! I mean I'm ecstatic that finals and classes are over.....but my friendships aren't! I'm going to miss these girls alot..and its never going to be the same. It will never be Me, Lesley, and Ali in our room with Danielle down the hall. It's sad. We'll never live in Templin again....=( On the upside, I am excited for summer now. And I'm excited for my apartment next year that will have no rules and my own room and bathroom. lol Ok so I was planning on staying in OP this weekend cuz my Mom's Graduation is Sunday and it would be dumb to go back...but then my Great-Grandma Jack died. Don't feel bad for me..lol..i didn't really know her and she didnt know me. She's pretty much been gone for years since she couldnt remember her own kids even. I'm not sad, but my Dad and Grandpa are and so I'm being the good kid and going back for it. My sister won't of course with the recent falling out with her and my Dad...so that leaves me. Man why must I always be the one to step up? Oh well. Leaving tomorrow...going to cry..then gotta go to a funeral for a lady I didn't even know.....then Graduation for my Mom...busy week. *sigh* <3Kristen | | |
| Hmmm.... So I've been reading my old posts..like ALL of them. And believe me, there were alot since I've had this thing for 3 years now... I've decided that WOW I was pretty crazy. Some of the things I said made me want to slap myself. I mean yes I was truthful in every post, but Jesus did I have to be so weird about it all? I mean yeah, I had some shitty days. Did I really need to dramatize it that much? I think NOT. I see that I have changed...and it's a good thing. Like..I've grown up and learned to handle things better. I mean seriously....I was a little too much for even me to handle....how on earth did anyone put up with me??? <3Kristen | | |
| The Slander of Women in Rap Music Chivalry: A word that brings morals and respect for women to mind. In conjures the days when women were considered delicate and special. Days when doors were held open, hands were offered, and ladies were always first. Today though, most men couldn’t even tell you what the word means. Chivalry is dead in most respects and has been replaced with the completely opposite view that women are sex toys. The most obvious example of this is in rap music. Women are constantly being referred to as “hoes,” “sluts,” and “bitches.” Rap artists employ women to wear small, revealing clothes while spouting these words in their latest “hit” song. Videos are nothing but rappers being portrayed as cool and thug-like with multiple half-naked women vying for their attention and being treated as pieces of meat where the club they are dancing in is the supermarket. This behavior is indisputably wrong and should not be happening in a modern world where women have fought for their right to be treated as equal human beings. The worst part is that women go along with these acts. The women in these videos and the millions of women that support rap music are essentially given these men the right to treat them like animals when they do not stand up and dispute it. By putting on the small clothes and “droppin it like it’s hot” for the rappers and men out there that watch and idolize these artists girls are opening the door for disrespect and misogynistic treatment. Women of the past did not devote their lives to the Women’s Rights Movement to let it all go to waste with the future generation. Women should stand up and not allow such disrespect from anyone, including famous rappers trying to make another “hit”. Real artists do not need to slander women, their bodies, or their reputations with these harsh and untrue words. Women are worth more than that and it is time they made it known to the world. | | |
| This is so well put... And it only hurts when Im breathing
My heart only breaks when its beating
My dreams only die when Im dreaming
So, I hold my breath--to forget ~Shania Twain "It Only Hurts When I Breathe" Anyways, So Life is pretty good I guess. The school year is almost over and I'm sad to leave. But Lesley has made me promise to visit her..and besides I want to check out my new apartment ASAP! And I will be up here to visit my Mom and sister this summer. I suffer withdrawl pains when I don't get to see my Mommy. Yes, our relationship has changed alot since I was 16...But I'm glad cuz she's like a wiser, older friend now. Its a good time. OOOO and Larry is totally going to teach me to drive a stick-shift on one of his little cars..I'm so excited cuz I definitely want to drive one of the Corvettes someday!!! Yay!!! I'm taking classes this summer..Yay...not. I'm dreading not having a complete summer but oh well. I get my trip tp Italy so I'll live. I've been thinking about what I'm going to bring back for everyone and It gets me all excited!!! I can't wait. But the sucky part is that It'll be Cali, Italy, Lawrence for classes. It's going to be crazy. But oh well life needs to be exciting every once in awhile. I think thats about it right now. Tt4n. <3Princess Kristen
