"The pressure builds, you buy a gift You’re hoping that your dread will lift It glitters on her like a glass You shudder as it comes to pass Apologize to luce and lil’ Converse with ed, a drive with jill Your friends confine you in their worlds One by one, a string of pearls Confused you say, this isn’t me You hover in their unity Ashamed, you slowly lose your grasp Release the links, undo the clasp The skin that drips down off the tree And peels back slowly from your knee Erupts into your lung and heart You laugh and laughing, fall apart Laugh and laughing, fall apart..." -Phish

So here's the latest at 832. Kelsey got her dream internship in Chicago for the summer, but it only pays $200 a month and it's full time..oops?! The kids are all planning their trip to Vegas, Kels and I are the only ones not going, sad, yes it's true. I don't ever see Kimmy because she lives at the library. Jessa is applying to be a red bull rep tonight. She has to go to an audition, yes that's right, not an interview but an audition. I have no idea what that entails, but I wish her luck. Christine just finished her big studying and can often be found in front of the Sopranos or at Sam's pizza with Tom and Dustin.

As for me, I start bartending this week! Yes, it is very exciting, but I only got one training session and I'm a little nervous. We also had our senior ceremony for Chi O on Monday (that's a pic of Autumn, Linz, and I after the ceremony). I am a little sad now that I'm an alum, but I also think it's kinda cool. I've now officially completed 2 of the 3 phases of being a Chi O. I'm not ready for the 3rd though, because that means that I become a member of the Omega Chapter....the Omega chapter consists of all of the Chi O's who are no longer with us. Kinda creepy actually. Oh well, formal is next weekend. I fit into my little red dress and I'm taking Lumberjack Jeff. Should be an amazing time. We are heading to a winery in Kolona, Il (no, not Iowa) and the evening should be filled with dining and dancing.

It's 75 and sunny and of course I waited until the last minute to do my real estate project. I just can't seem to get motivated. Only 27 more days of school left. Amen!! Get me out of here.

Smooches!
