How I did it: I recently moved to Pittsburgh for college and they just had the concert for the steelers first game of the NFL. it was free and had Tim McGraw and Black Eyed Peas. It was suuuupppper fun and crazy crowded since it was a free concert lol. i didnt stay for the last like 4 songs cause it was getting a little to crazy and the drunks were coming out lol but i was close enough to see Tim and Will.I.Am and Fergie =] super fun and i loved it! an… Read how I did it…
How I did it: well my boyfriend had come to see me before he left for marine bootcamp july 13 `09, and we hadnt seen each other for three weeks cause i had recently moved to PA. so we went to the mall to hang out and we were in sears and i was messing around trying on prom dresses, it was off season and i wanted a cute short dress to have just in case lol, and he was in the dressing room with me telling me how i looked and one thing left to another and… Read how I did it…
How I did it: i taught an art class to a couple of fifth graders for my teacher cadet and i had help from their original art teacher. the project was to make a clay frog and it would have been better if we had a bit more time but all the frogs turned out pretty cute. Read how I did it…

Well my boyfriend has graduated from boot camp =] and we just got put through our first test of the whole not seeing each other disappointment. He was hoping to get RA so hed have an extra three months of pay so it wouldnt be a big deal if he went and spent money on a flight up to PA, but because of his MOS training starts right after MCT he cant miss it. so because he doesnt have enough money for MCT and traveling he had to give up the visit. Other then boot camp it was our first run in with the rejection of not being able to see each other. thankfully we’re both dealing with it really well. Although he did say he had something he wanted to do/tell me when he came up but now hes going to wait till the next time we see each other because he said its something he needs to ask in person. my friend thinks hes going to propose but idk. so i have to wait like 5-7 months for that lol or christmas if i have enough money to fly out and see him in Missouri. Semper Fi <3
but im a skeptic. I have this amazing boyfriend whos dedicated to me but has his on life. Im doing well in college so far and ive made one really decent friend. It just seems a bit too good to be true. The downers are mostly the fact that my BF is in the marines and life can radically change because of it, also i can feel my normal procrastination setting in as a new quarter is starting. and since i have more classes im afraid i wont be able to keep up. Also my financial aid runs out soon so i have to find a way to pay for school fast, and my parents may be moving back to NC. Its just a lot on my mind and im hoping for the best..
