Why you gotta be so mean?!?!

OK please bear with me because it is taking me a lot of strength to not flip out on this post but I will begin with the high. The first half of my day when pretty well. There was a 2 hour delay so I got to sleep in for a bit, I cooked four gallons of chili(which turned out AMAZING), I didn’t slip or fall, I won the chili cook-off and went to a basketball game. Now to the low….one thing that really upsets me is when people lie or make up stories to make themselves look good or to make someone else look bad!! People have been saying that I have been “faking my injury” just so people can feel sorry for me and get attention. The thing about my campus is that its small, so if you say something to someone it will eventually come to the person who are saying the thing about. I would like to make one thing clear, I am not making anything up!! Obviously if those people have been reading my blog(and they probably do, b/c people are just waiting for me to “go crazy”) then they would know that I’m not lying about anything. OK so I just had to get that off my chest cause it was bugging the crap out of me!! But anyways I’m just gonna brush it off and fly above all of those haters.

The Sun will come out tomo…..

I am so sick of the snow!!! Since I am from an area that rarely gets snow when I see it I usually get excited about it and that lasts about 1-2 days. However I have been looking at snow for the past 4 days and I kind of just want it to go away. OK I know you are wondering, aren’t you in college, shouldn’t you have the day off. HA! Nope, we haven’t gotten any days off, not even a lousy 1 hour delay and I continue to be baffled by this. Around noon today it started snowing again and it is now 9:21 and it hasn’t stopped yet and is supposed to continue onto 4-5 a.m. tomorrow morning. My guess is that they still wont cancel class and then I will go out and slip on the ice…again!! In more positive news tomorrow the dining hall on campus is having a chili cookoff and I will be cooking(WOO HOO!!). I am super excited because I love cooking and I love chili so it will be fantastic!! I have no daily gratitudes so thats all for today.

FDG- Swollen Foot girl pt. 3,347

2010 February 2

Im gonna even gonna lie and say that my day was all peaches and herb cause it was ROUGH!!! Not only did the ice make it difficult for me to get around but when I finally got the balls to go out I slipped and fell on the ice. Granted it was at midnight(like 30 minutes ago) and the temperature droppped (ALOT) and I wasn’t wearing the best shoes but whatevs!! But what truly blew me was when I called security for helped and I was DENIED then I asked if I could park in handicap b/c the lot in tullidge was full and I would not be able to walk all the way down the steps from Adp and I was once again DENIED and said they would give me ticket and then gave me attitude!! If you learned from my last post, I don’t have a really good relationship with security and I don’t do that whole 3 strikes thing, you screw me over once and I’m pissed!! So hopefully when I wake up tomorrow my foot is not more swollen than it already was if it is then that would suck!! But oh so yeah I’m supposed to be doing my five daily gratitudes, lets see….

Today I am grateful for:
1. Finishing my ethics presentation before midnight
2. Finally getting my W-2’s in the mail
3. A friend letting me have her ice pack
4. Black nail polish
5. Open communication to school employees ie. sending a hardcore email to the top security man(named not mentioned due to privacy, but if you go to my school then you know who im talking about) about security screwing me over!!

Sunday Confessional: Im addicted to Ross

So yesterday was Sig Ball at my school and I will spare you with all the juicy details of what I did before and after(awww im sorry isn’t that why you came to read this in the first place, cause you totally thought I was gonna put someone up here that you could run with, well you are WRONG HAHAHA!!) but what I will say is that every single thing I wore that night was from ross, my dress, shoes, tights, and even the headband. I have noticed that I have been spending less money at stores like american eagle and ny&co and my fave stores forever 21, nordstrom and charlotte russe and more at ross and target. Anyways I had lots of fun and will attempt to not purchase anything from ross for a while!!!

#MusicFriday??

2010 January 30
by Kimberly Parker

So I have been trying to make a habit of showcasing my fave song of the week on Mondays because its something you do on twitter, called MusicMonday. However, since I EPIC FAILED at doing that I thought I should do a Music Friday(ok so I couldnt come up with an F word for music give me a break!!) The song is Watch me Shine by Joanna Pacitti and I think it showcases a lot of my current thoughts and feelings, here are a few lines from the song enjoy!!

I’m not your average type of girl I’m gonna show the world the strength in me that sometimes they can’t see.
Better watch out going for the knockout and I won’t stop til I’m on top now not gonna give up until I get what’s mine.
So from my head to toe my mind body and soul I’m taking full control this time.
Bet you don’t think I can take it but my mind and body are strong bet you don’t think I can make it, it won’t take long.

So yeah there you go if you know me then you know this fits perfectly, also get ready for an EPIC post…like super epic, where I will be revealing A LOT of information, yeah get ready for it!!! I’ll probably be stirring up so much drama but isn’t that what I’m good for???

After the day that I had yesterday I must say that today went pretty well and by well I mean that I didn’t have another episode and die. But seriously, my day was very productive, I got a paper done, went to all my classes, went to work and had my first college dems meeting of the semester all with a swollen throat, a numb face and extreme drowsiness. Right now I’m pretty out of it from the meds but I have been trying to make an effort to do some homework. In more “good” news, my ankle has been doing a lot better. I went a few days without the brace and without pain meds and I was doing ok but then some pain came back and I wore the brace today. I know right now this post is super random, has lots of run on sentences and I have been putting commas in weird places like I said before, Im tired and ready to pass out. Well OK, I’m gonna blow off my homework and get some sleep.

Fail…

2010 January 28
by Kimberly Parker

OK I plan on this being a very rare thing, but because my day went so horribly and was an epic fail I just had to do it but I will balance it with a few daily gratitudes

Today my life failed because
1. Someone ate a peanut product to close to my face
2. Because of that I had an allergic reaction
3. Which led to my throat swelling up and me being unable to swallow
4. I cant go to the hospital because I don’t have insurance
5. I’m suffering

Today I am grateful for
1. Being able to watch the State of the Union Address despite the above statements
2. Allergy Medicine
3. Water

Today I am grateful for:
1. People in senate having a brain and saying that certain things don’t need to go in the student handbook
2. Brand new Red Beret from target
3. Wearing boots for the first time in a month
4. Getting off of work early
5. Getting a B+ on a Ethics Paper

Your not hardcore, unless you live hardcore!!!

Today I decided that I would stop wearing my ankle brace, this comes days after I stopped taking pain medications(good idea or bad idea…you decide). I know it sounds stupid but I am trying to gain strength in my ankle so that I can wear high heels this Saturday for a dance at my school. Who knows, maybe me not wearing the brace will actually help it but most likely(because I have such bad luck) me not wearing will just make it worse, the bones in my ankle will collapse and I will be crippled for the rest of my life. But anyways, hopefully now since I am not wearing the brace people will stop asking me whats wrong with my foot but since I still have a limp they will probably start asking me why am I limping(its stupid, if someone was pregnant would you ask them why they are pregnant…its common sense!!).

But in other news my school is having elections for student government and I got some “lovely” emails about how I am eligible to run b/c of my G.P.A……HAHH!! Do they seriously think that I would consider running for something the way this school screwed me over, if they do they need to think again. Plus I think s.g.a is corrupt and are only there for personal gain and not to benefit the school as a whole (uh oh here I go again, getting myself into trouble, I cant wait to see who calls or emails me tomorrow, I think I should censor myself….haha j/k). So yeah that was my monday, pretty lame if you say so myself, hopefully something juicy happens tomorrow(hmm maybe the therapist will tell me that I need to seek help).

and then it was good….

2010 January 21

It is totally rare for me to say this so please read this. photocopy it into your mind and keep it there because this never happens but today has been such a great day. Not only did the pain in my foot go away(briefly, but away regardless) but I aced all of my quizzes, I slipped on some ice and managed to not fall on my butt and attended a fantastic event on campus for CGIU: Changemakers for Women. If you are unsure of what that is about I will tell you(not now because I am exhausted)but definitely in the future. But tonight was all about networking, all the members of the group met with a bunch of business women in Staunton and talked to them about the organization, what we wanted to do and to get any ideas from them all while having fantastic cheeses, veggies and desserts. Did I mention that my outfit it kind of adorable today, I totally wish I could take a picture of my entire outfit(but I don’t feel like it) but a lot of the women said they loved my shoes so here they are(fab aren’t they?) Guess how much I paid for them(I will never tell :) ). So now I must go off into the abyss called my bed and maybe even treat myself to sleeping in tomorrow. I hope your day was as great as mine and if it wasn’t hopefully my great day will rub off on you.
