so i'm all moved in. this is actually the 2nd night that i'm here but only the first i'm in my room cause i stayed at aaron's last night.
so i watched the exorcist last night. i have to say that a lot of it wasn't as scary as what i thought. probably cause at least half of it looked a lot like a combination of the back of my eyelids and john's shoulder. i'm such a chicken.
so i went to a frat party. i just got back like 45 minutes ago and i went with this girl that i met online and she's on my floor. and then we went with this scene guy that she met. so we're all standing there. sober. random drunk guys would come up and give us hugs. so we left and went and played on the womack swings. then courteney and i went home around 2 15 or so.
so i haven't really slept in a couple of days so i'm going to go crash.
i've seen my roommate once. it's kinda like living in a single. i don't even know where she is. i'm assuming somewhere on greek row cause there was a note on our door saying something about the beta party.
which i was at
and it sucked.
sleep
OH! thanks to aaron for coming and visiting me on campus today. that was pretty awesome. and for introducing me to fall of troy.
ok

friday needs to freaking hurry up and get here already.
life keeps tricking me into thinking it's all dandy and then something will just slam me.
i've potentially lost a good friend cause i decided to not to put up with anymore crap.
but then at wal mart i bought this amazing watch. it's barbie with 3 interchangeable straps. and it was 6 dollars.
so in the interest of keeping with the time theme: my time is booked and i don't want to be second best to you anymore. no more will i put up with the crap you put me through and the guilt trips i'm always in. i can't deal with it right now and i just want this last week to be fun. and it's gone.
i move friday.
i want to move now.
i miss michelle and stephanie. more than words can say. i miss them and it sucks that the banditos are being disbanded. but i'm moving on and i'm looking forward to starting fresh in college. cause i need to.
and if you really care i'm listening to finding steve cunningham.

p.s. i'm loving my car and so far the happiest moments these past couple of days have been in my car. |

so my goal for today was to drive by myself after it had just rained. i really needed to or else i was never going to drive when it was a little wet. i did ok and the only thing that went wrong was that i almost drove off with my gas cap dangling. good job tara.
the next step is to drive by myself on the interstate.
we're doing baby steps people. baby steps.
i'm in the process of packing to leave for school. i leave on the 26th but i need to be ready before then cause i'll forget something if i do it last minute.
i'm really excited and i would have to say that it's all because of my boro friends that are already down there. mainly the finding steve cunningham and a plea for purging boys. they're promising to make sure that i'm ok.
not to mention the hfa kids who are there and the people that i've met random places.
well i think i'm going to go and attempt to clean my room before it explodes at the seams.

so before this gets through grapevine and turned around: I"M NOT DEAD
so if i lose interest in the middle of this post trying to explain what happened then just call aaron eckermann and ask him cause i called him and told him last night.
james polston, michelle muldoon and i were coming back from st louis yesterday and it had been raining really hard. monsoonish. so we're driving on I-64 E and the roads are really slick and the car starts to swerve a little bit. the next thing i know the car is doing a 180 and is spinning to the interior concrete wall. we slam into the wall and end up stopping facing the wrong direction. we're in the shoulder so no one hits us and we all had our seat belts on so we're all relatively ok. michelle's arm hurts and my head is killing me still.
but we're all looking at like "we're just glad that we're alive."
because after reviewing the mental tapes i realize that we're lucky to be alive.
in fact everyone i've told has so very kindly reminded me of that.
so we're here until monday morning because the towplace is being a skank and is holding our car for ransom.
so just pray that all works out and my head stops pounding.
but at the current moment i'm still coming to terms with the fact that we almost died and i'm probably a little more freaked out than what i should be.
but i just want to say that i really realized that i have the greatest people surrounding me. my family is amazing and even though we often butt heads they really care about me
and
to my friends i just want to say that i love you all and i'm going to try to be a better friend because this major wreck really made me realize that life is cut off in a moment. one minute i'm looking at phenomenauts pictures and the next i'm trapped in a car on the highway facing the wrong direction....and i'm extremely close to almost dying.
i'm just really freaked out right now and i'm trying to just be happy that we're alive.
but i really want to be home right now with everyone and yes. i miss my mommy. i think i have the right to say that.
i love you all and i'm glad that i'm still here to continue friendships.
but i'll continue talking about the rest of st louis later.

ps this is james' account. "
As I have been on the interstate now
for two minutes, I feel the car being pressured from
side to side. I look at the speedometer to find that I
am travelling nearly ten miles per hour under the 55
mph limit. I glance to the side and realize that no
trees are moving under blustery breezes. That was the
last thought I had before I completely focused on the
road. Our car went left, then right, suddenly we spun
180-degrees, faced on-coming traffic in rush-hour,
slid across another lane of traffic, and finally
rested abruptly against the inner wall of the
interstate.
As we sat facing oncoming traffic during the peak
traffic hours on Saturday afternoon, on what was the
same road that had just hydroplaned us and sent our
vehicle out of control and into wreck, I could not
help but think of the other vehicles and the
possibility of there out-of-control wrecks. I
decided, after a few minutes of relishing my near
death experience, that I should stay in the vehicle. I
have seen too many "Wildest Police Chases Caught By
Extremely Amateur Photographers", to realize I could
get hit by another vehicle if I tried to get out of
the car.
Officer Menendez was kind enough to take me and my
passengers off of the interstate, and to drop us off
at a gas station that sold Jones Soda. The same
cannot be said for S&H Towing, who towed our car to
ransom with ridiculous daily rates and no chance of
retrieval before Monday." |
