So yesterday i went to plattsburgh state to visit my very good friend jared. even though i had to throw a hissy fit to make my mom allow me to go to plattsburgh in the rain that we were having, it was actually good weather on campus.
i got to meet his roomie, mike, who i have to say is the cuttest and shyest guy i've meet. omg, he is black irish, so that means beautiful blues eyes and the blackest hair... sooo cute. he had that kind of smile that just lit up the room and omg... hehehehhe
jared treated me to dinner, and we talked and hung out, afterwards we went back to his room where jess donah invited us to go see this comedian tim young in the student union.. he was so funny, i was just crying from laughter... we went with donah, her bf chris, her roomie and her bf...
afterwards we went back to his dorm where we played pool, air hockey and hung out with his roomie and his roomie's friends. i almost won at pool too!! and jared kicked some serious ass at air hockey, it was insane.
then we went back up to his room where liz came over because she wanted to leave jess light with a friend.... around 11pm we went down to jess lights room were we decided to go out to a party,.. so she got dressed and we went over to alexis' room where mike stafford was visiting. we all went out to helen street to what was supposed to be a kick ass party... uh huh... this party made rit look fun, so you have to imagine how sad and pothetic it was. it was some greek party too!!
it was unbelievable to walk out of jared's dorm and just see tons of ppl out and about going to parties and the new clubs down town, the bars... i wish that we had something like that at rit.. but i just had to keep reminding myself that i like what i do and hopefully i'll get paid well to do it. Also, the student population at platts state is unbelievably good looking... it's just amazing.. like all the guys are hot and the not so good looking guys are better looking than the population at rit!!! and all the girls are all skinny and preaty... i mean even alexis and jess light are beauty queens! idk, sometimes i do wish that i could just party non stop and not have to worry about wasting an expensive eduacation.. if i went to platts state it's only like 10 grand... compared to the 30 grand at rit.
i didn't even drink when we went out. i didn't have a DD and i didn't have anything so that i could crash somewhere. i was so tempted to see if the beer was good.. alexis was complaining that is was so bad, so i was curious if it was.. well thank god that she just started yelling at me... so motherly like hehe, because when i got on the northway to go home there was a sobriety check! the state police man shown a light in my eyes was asked me a bunch of questions.. there were all of these other cars on the sides of the road where the drivers were doing the typical testing. i can't lie worth shit, so i probably would have had to pull over. just not a trust building thing to come home with a dwi right before i leave for school.
i had fun with jared yesterday... a lot goes on at platts heheh

This world is screwed up.. on the 11 o'clock news, they have a story about a cop killing, a shoot out in the middle east, and hillary duff's birthday party..... enough said...
it's like that quote from chris rock:
"you know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tollest guy in the NBA is chinese, the swiss hold the american cup, france is accusing the u.s. of arrogance, germany doesn't want to go to war, and the thing most powerful men in america are named 'bush', 'dick', and 'colon'. need i say more?"
idk but i think that my hair is too short... i swear that my face changed this summer... it's so wierd
So apparently what was going to cost like $150 to fix my sun roof is now $400!! i wanted to have that sunroof for the drive out there at least... i know that rochester isn't big on the sun and nice days, but it would have been nice to have. now i'm going to wait till next spring, so that i will at least have it when summer starts :-/

oh so this is a convo that i had with my mother today:
mom: allison can i borrow 20 dollars
me: where am i going to get that money... going to plattsburgh state and prostituting myself?!
mom: well if you are going to do that, then i want 40
Well today i was actually productive. I picked up some things at Wallyworld... they are making it more and more difficult every day for me to pick up my mary kate and ashley shampoo! the ailes are getting smaller and smaller, plus there are all of these colleges students roaming around and all the grade school kids fighting with their parents. what a hell. I also got my hair cut again, the mill did some serious damage to it :-/ but i love my new hair!
I really have to start packing my stuff up, i'm leaving bright and early sunday morning... what would be a decent 6 hour drive, i garentee will be like 12 hours because i have to visit with my grandma and, if you knew my family, they take forever to get going... it's going to be a long couple of days...
I went to visit my friend mike bergman... well i harassed him at work hehe. and we both agree that the male population of plattsburgh state is unblievably gorgeous... idk if it is that most good looking guys are dumb.. or the north country does something to guys. if i didn't care what i did for a career i would be there in a sec! hehehe i'll do some scoping when i go and visit my buds donah, kaila, and jared. aaawww we are all growing up so fast

All last night i fought insomnia, and finally fell asleep on the couch at like 5 am, and now i'm fighting to stay wake. It's one of those days where you just lay around in your pajamas. There is no sun and it's cold outside. Just my luck, that my only full week of vacation this summer, it's cold and rainy, and when i was sleeping all day and working all night it was just drop dead gorgeous. oh well... the tanning booth is looking better and better everyday.

Well, i decided to get one of these online journal thingys because my buddy profile stoped working. Now, keep in mind that my inner most thoughts and feelings are not going to be posted on the internet... i know that i have some serious blonde moments but i'm not that vacant... gotta keep something to the imagination ;-)
The biggest thing that has happened lately.. well two big things...
1. i am offically not an employee of Georgia Pacific :-)
2. i have a baby cousin Austin James Koeber on my dad's side :-) he was born on thrusday August 21st at 10pm.
I'm so happy to be finished with work. The mind games that GP played with me just about broke me, and one afternoon did. My body is still feeling the affects, with every bone in my back popping when i get out of a chair. I met a lot of good people there, and they are the only thing that i'm going to miss. Why not money you ask ? beacause my boss Scott was payed the same salery in 1984!! So you can see my lack on enthusium when i see the low pay check after a back breaking week. I do have some stories, and i'll write them in gradually, i don't want to run out of steam. :-)
My new cousin is the coolest thing to happen to my family in a long time. My dad's side is seriously lacking in the numbers department compared to my mom's. So having another person is an event. He is blonde haired and blue eyed. Gotta give props to the swedish blood running threw us. They all live in Minnesota, so i won't be able to see him till next summer. I'm hopping to get a co-op in Mineapolis so that i can spend quality time, and spoil him enfusly. :-)
this next week is going to be busy because i'm packing for school. I've been so excited to get back to rit that i forgot what i was leaving. Not only was i leaving my family but i was leaving the adirondacks again. when i got out of work at 530 sunday morning, from my last day of work, i decided to take the long way to home. I drove threw downtown and on lake shore drive. the sunrise was so breath-taking that i drove up to Clinton Community. The view was unbelievable, i could see over the whole lake, the path of the water current, everything. It was such a calming moment that a camera would've cheapened. I know that my heart in here in the adriondacks, and i have every intention of buying one of those huge houses on the lake so i can see the same thing i saw that morning when i'm on retirment. i would live here all my life if there was any decent jobs in the area and the state didn't tax us to death. one day, one day.....
