I don't know why I instantly became upset after reading "The Clan of the One-Breasted Woman." But only sentences into the article, and my hate for humanity increased three-fold. I have complete faith in our race to destroy the Earth entirely. I was thinking as I was walking to class about what would happen if everybody in the United States disappeared one day. Who would take on the burdoe of inhabiting this place? And would they continue as being the super-power of the world? If so, would they continue on a destructive path, or would they take a more ecological stance and work backwards to try to fix the problems already created?
What about the wildlife? Who says they won't one day evolve to form their own animalistic societies? If they, one day, go through their own Enlightenment who is to say that they would or would not conserve or destroy thier own habitat. I would like to think that if all the flora and fauna in the world were to take over one day, that they would do it in the best sustainable way possible. I would be all for the animal take over, at least the would appreciate it. Hypothetically.
PS. I may be crazy, but I am not making any of this up. http://news.yahoo.com/s/usatoday/20070223/tc_usatoday/spearsarelatestdiscoveryinchimpstoolbox
Spears are the latest discovery in chimps toolbox Take that, humanity.

If I could fly around the world. I would do it in a split second. I suppose I will settle for running and leaping off of the edge of a mountian above Queenstown, New Zealand.
( I love New Zealand )

I had an urge to cry at the sight of so many fallen leafs. Perhaps I have just been too busy or too drunk or too tired to appreciate the color change. Or maybe the world just wanted to skip that step and go straight to leafs lining the sidewalks without the colorful stage in between. Either way, crying is not appropriate on a bus full of people. Nor is it appropriate to want to cry while walking to class. Sometimes I don't know what to think. I wish I could explain, but I will cover up my worries with pictures of good times.
I adore all of these people. Claire is trying to pull me into the picture while Eric is double fisting his beers, Dave is sandwiched in the middle, and Aaron is just being cool.
( Weekend fun! )

I love Michigan State. And I love living with Stephanie. And I love tailgating. And I love crowd surfing in the football stadium. And I love meeting new people. And I am not going home for winter break, I am going to NEW ZEALAND!!
This is Bobby. He is doing a handstand in the hallway. And although he has an ipod with his headphones on, there is a good chance that he isn't actually listening to music.
( Michigan State :) )

It's humorous listening to people at work. Griping about their children and whatnot. Talking about how some girl is a bad influence on their sweet and innocent daughter. Or how their son is a horrible liar despite what he thinks when he steals his fathers truck and doesn't clear the mileage. I guess it's just a matter of perspective.
Well, I am back from California. Which was absolutely amazing. I had a wonderful time, although another west coast trip is definitely in order with a group of friends. It would be an entirely different and fabulous experience. Probably way less funded though..
I am at work right now, as always. Won't you be a doll and drop me a line? schind16@msu.edu or at any of my random online entertainment.. It will make my day, I promise.

I leave for California tomorrow afternoon. I am excited to get out of the office. That sounds ridiculous of me, but it's true. I will be back to Michigan super late Sunday the 30th. With just enough time to get a few hours of sleep in before it's back to the office for me. But I think/hope by that point I will be satisfied enough with my trip to accept my responsibilities and come back willingly. I remember last time I went to Cali I had to resist the urge to skydive out of the airplane windows in order to stay in the mountains.
If anyone knows exciting things to do in either Los Angeles, Malibu, or San Francisco and reads this before I leave, you should give me some tips and ideas! I pretty much have the nightlife to embrace by myself once I am done backpacking. So suggestions would be amazing!
I'll be sure to post some of the pictures when I get back :)

I am leaving for California in a week and I am pretty much going to be traveling down the coast to Phoenix. That is a lot of travel time. Which means I am going to need plenty of books to read and music to listen to. I would reallllyyy appreciate it if you lovely people would suggest some good books and/or music for my journey.
Thank you! <3

Numberology based on home address.
My families home address, where I grew up:
NINE Completion, selflessness, letting go of the old
412 West Holmes, where I lived last year:
TWO Balance of opposites, polarity
510 East Holmes, where I will be living in the fall with Stephanie:
SIX Love, compassion, home
It's eerie how accurate this is.

Life Path based on day of birth
23
With a birthday on the 23rd of the month (5 energy) you are inclined to work well with people and enjoy them. You are talented and versatile, very good at presenting ideas. You may have a tendency to get itchy feet at times and need change and travel. You tend to be very progressive, imaginative and adaptable. Your mind is quick, clever and analytical. A restlessness in your nature may make you a bit impatient and easily bored with routine. You may have a tendency to shirk responsibility. Very sociable, you make friends easily and you are an excellent traveling companion.

Your flavor is Groovy Grapefruit
With a laidback style and anything-goes outlook, your groove is mellow yellow. People enjoy hanging out with you for your calming vibe and unique perspective on life. That's probably because you aren't one to let everyday stress get you down. In fact, your pals would say they've rarely seen your feathers ruffled. But as much as you enjoy the company of your compadres, you're just as happy to spend time solo. Why follow the crowd when you can chill down your own path?
Chances are, traditional success has never been a huge priority for you. With your groovy outlook, we'd guess you're more interested in the journey than the destination. This type of thoughtfulness extends beyond your inner circle to the world at large. Whether lending a helping hand to others or getting the word out about social causes, your caring nature is punctuated with a zing that never fails to get people's attention.
What Flavor Fits You?

It's summer and I have yet to go swimming. That thought just occured to me today.

Okay kids. I have a quest for you. I am currently sitting at my desk at work and it is 8:23am. I have been here for the past 21 minutes. I can hardly keep my eyes open. I love this job. But it is early. And the little box they have me sitting in is bare. So here is your quest: make me a picture! something that I can put up on my wall at work. I would love you forever. FOREVER, I tell you.
Send it in the mail to my house.
Or to my email.
Or post it somewhere.
Just ask if you don't have any of the contact information. ;)

I received a telephone call today from Cognasta Rovers and Associates Environmental Engineering Firm telling me that I am hired for their summer internship. (!!!) I am going to be one tired girl starting June 5th because it is an 8 to 5 job. But I am psyched. It seems to work out better this way, because last night my parents had a nice long discussion with me about how I come home too late. Or too early, in my case.. I have been waltzing in my house anywhere between 4:00 and 7:00 in the morning. I suppose being at work at 8:00 in the morning will start to regulate my late nights. Weekends are for going crazy now.

I don't know why I don't fall madly in love with boys who dance with me in the rain. And I don't know why drug induced sleep is more appealing to me. I start writing things down and cross them out again. I woke up a few nights ago from some dream and wrote down "I do. I wish. I could." and then proceeded to cross it out again. I wish I knew what I was thinking at that very moment. I can only imagine.
Maybe I want to party to stop thinking so much. Maybe I want to take a road trip to escape from myself. Maybe I want to get all dolled up and walk around town winking at people for amusement.
But really, I have decided that I am a walking contradiction. Why else would I yearn for romance and dismiss men in the same blink of an eye?
On a separate note. I turn 19 on June 23rd. I am thinking wild and crazy dance party at my house?

I want a night on the town where there are no worries, restrictions, or inhibitions. I want a night where everybody is laughing and dressed to the nines. I want a night where I look back and think "This is what summer is all about."
I want a night where I remember everything but still have no idea where to start explaining what happened. I want a night where everyone is friends and all grudges are put on hold.
I want a night where every second of every moment contains a priceless expression on every persons face.
I want a night where boundaries are crossed, in a polite yet risky sort of way.
  
But mostly, I want a night where love runs wild through our veins. love. lust. affection. adoration. friendship. the list goes on forever.
Keep in mind, I just might love you.

I am officially moved out. and I am now a sophomore at michigan state university. I was not expecting to have to say no to crack on my last night. But that is what college is about. Surprises. I haven't even been home for an hour and I already want to find a way to get back there as quick as possible. This is probably the only year that I am not excited for school be over. Novi does not equal fun in my book.

I don't want to go home. That's pretty much the story of my life. Apparently last night after Claire and Mary pretty much dragged me back to the room, I went wandering down the hallway and stumbled into my friend Kyles room. I don't know how long I talked to all the guys in the hallway, but I do remember being unable to stand. And them getting a kick out of it, and then becoming worried. Because eventually, I can't remember who, but one of them told me I needed to go back to my room to go to sleep and I must have started yelling that I don't want to go back to my room. So he picked me up and threw me over his shoulder and carried me down the hall to my room. There is way more to this story that I am not going to type out. But I do love telling my drunken stories. So I will tell the tale if you ask.
On a completely different note; I was studying all day today. If by all day I mean going extreme mini golfing instead. ;) Actually, I did study a whole lot today. It is definitely needed, my finals are going to kick my ass this semester. But the mini golf extravaganza was well worth it. champagne and checkered pants complete my day.
