Great Day

Journal,
What a great parents weekend! My dad flew down to see me because he knew I needed some love. We went to a wonderful dinner on Friday, met the colonel on Saturday morning (after Pete's Grill of course), then went to Antiedum (beutiful) and then he took me shopping! My dad has felt like he has wanted to help me, so he picked out a pair of cute Uggs at Nordstrom!! Then, he asked if I wanted a bag too...he was soo sweet. I know he hates shopping, but he was willing to buy be whatever I wanted. Ooooh I also got a cute little pink swiss army knife..lol. For dinner we went to Crabby Dicks (always good crab balls). Sunday, we just spent the morning at breakfast and picking up some things that I needed for the week, you know meal bars, fruit and such. And then at 5, Brit and I went to see Down from Heaven starring Reese!! Good movie, go catch it!!
Possiby getting my new pup today or wednesday! So excited. After seeing me this weekend, my father agrees that I need him.
I remember why I love Loyola. People here really care. Matt and I talked for a long time last night. Gosh I adore him. Such a wonderful guy here on campus. Throughout everything I know who my friends are, and I thank them. Thanks Matt!!
Also, the reason I'm writing on this thing, is so that I can vent my feelings, it's what the lady told me to do. It is just a way for my FRIENDS (thats right people I am close to), especially the ones abroad, to read what's been going on. This wasn't meant to be seen as me crying out for attention. My god, the internet does not validate me and give me friends. So I took this link off of facebook (there for Liz, Sam and Court mostly to have the link) because they know how to find this.
Kicked a little ass last week on my planning with ROTC, then stepped it up and got stuff together for parents weekend. I didn't want it to be a flop, so I tried. Feeling happy, hopefully get set up by Brit, and just loving life. Things are a little saddening sometimes, but for the most part I'm definatly working through it. So thanks to everyone who has been there for me. Sammy...you come home in 1 month and 14 days. Then shit biatch...we are spending quality time together. I will drag you down to LC with me!
I've loved another person, and I continue to love others everyday. I'm stronger than yesterday, and I can make it on my own!

xoxo
