Well, today is the day that I start my photography class. I think I mentioned before, since I’ve gone to school before but had never really had any “art” classes, I need to take this one prerequisite class at a community college before I can reapply to the university and to the school of arts at the u. Why? Well, they have this class at the university of course, but they only allow freshmen and sophomores to take it. LAME!

So I’ll take this class and then another in the Spring and form my portfolio from those. I’ll use that porfolio to apply to the photography program in August. I hope I get in! When I went to the information session, I was told that it was one of the most competetive programs out there and that I should definitely have a back up if I was applying. Well, I don’t have a back up because I simply won’t go back if I don’t get in.

So no gym for me this morning. I’ll stay home and sign in until I have to get ready to go. It’s about a 45 min. drive so I’ll leave an hour early today so I can get a parking pass and all that stuff. It’s a 3 hr. long class. Ugh.

I’ve already read through the first 50 pages of the text book or so. It all seems very technical and complicated. I think we’ll be doing a lot of stuff with taking the same shot with different settings to compare the outcome and focus and stuff like that. It should be interesting either way.

In other news, I spent the night with the boy again night before last. We were supposed to go out to a nice dinner and stuff but he wasn’t feeling well so we just stayed in. We had a great time though, I think we fucked for about 3 hrs. at night (he started to feel a bit better, obviously) and then woke up and went at it again around 3 am for about half an hour. YUM. And no, we’re still not getting back together and won’t be. I think he’ll be moving out of state for a new job in a few months.

Anyway, thanks again to everyone who contributed to my school fundraiser. I really appreciate that AND all the awesome calls I’ve been getting lately.

Hope we get to talk soon!

Of course I went to Erin’s for New Year’s. Where else could I possibly want to be? My cousin made her man stay home with their kid and she went with me too. haha The three of us and a few of Erin’s other friends all met up around 8:30 or so to have a little bit of a pre funk at a hotel room that some of them had rented close to downtown. They didn’t want to get all messed up and have to drive home. I think there were about 10 of us all together.

I know that some of you disapprove of my infrequent drug use, but hey, we only live once, right? I was actually a bit hesitant to do ecstasy again because the last few times I’ve done it, the pills weren’t that great. But the guy who gets them for us promised that he’d actually done these specific ones himself and that they were amazing.

So bottoms up, all of us but one girl (who gets drug tested for work) dropped our pills and then we grabbed our stuff and headed out. We took the light rail thing to a stop only one block away from the club we planned to go to. By the time we got onto the train most of us were feeling the pills and by the time we got TO the club, we were all high as kites.

We went pretty early and there was no line to get in, but the cover was $25. Ouch! We didn’t have to drink though, so hey, no biggie. Erin has done E a few times before but it never really affected her the way that it normally does, but this time…WOOHOO! She was definitely feelin’ it.

We danced our little asses off all night long, it was great. At midnight there was the count down, of course…the club was hoppin’ by then, super crowded. Three, two, one…HAPPY NEW YEAR and all of the sudden there was a guy I’d never seen before right in front of me telling me to kiss him. I thought for a second, um, hey, Erin should be my first kiss of the new year, right? But I was high and not thinking very clearly so I leaned in and did it.

I thought it would just be a quick “happy new year” type of kiss but no. He immediately took the kiss deeper and kinda started making out with me! After about 30 seconds, my friends all started hootin’ and hollerin’ at us so he raised the little paper party hat he had in his hands in front of our faces and we kept going at it. He was an AWESOME kisser.

We finally broke apart and he disappeared back into the crowd. Then I kissed Erin and all the rest of our friends Happy New Year and we started dancing again. Erin and I took a second pill right around midnight and when we left the club at 2:45 (cause the train thing only ran until 3), we were still super high.

I saw the guy one more time when we were waiting for our coats and talked to him for a couple of minutes. Yep, he was definitely cute…everyone was jealous of me.

We got home to Erin’s house around 4 and we were too exhausted to do anything so we just went to sleep. I slept like a baby immediately, which was totally bizarre considering the drugs. Those might just be the best E pills I’ve ever had.

The next morning we all got up and had resolutions to eat healthier and work out, so we went to a Chinese restaurant (ok, it was more like noon by the time we got there) and ate lettuce wraps and steamed veggies and stuff. Then we went and did a little shopping because there’s no sales tax in OR. How could I resist?

Wednesday would have been my one year anniversary with the boy so I decided to pick something special up for the weekend, when I planned to see him and mock celebrate it. I got a super cute little teddy/dress with garters attached that’s black and an almost lime green color with matching lime green fishnets. I also got some rope, a feather tickler, a blind fold and a role playing card game. Should be fun!

I’ve been going to the gym again after MAJORLY slacking over the past few months and today I’m sore as hell from running yesterday. OW. No gym for me today, but I will try to make it tomorrow before I head out.

I should be on for calls all night tonight but will definitely not be around tomorrow. Not sure about Sunday, but no one really seems to be wanting me that much anyway so I doubt anyone will miss me.
