Reading Articulate_AzN's journal

Alright. I suppose everyone is right. My life is just a little but dull with nowhere to spew all of my happenings. For all of you who wished me well off, i appreciate your sentiments. For those of you who didnt, it doesnt matter, because im back now, whether you like it or not. ;)

So... Where to begin. So much has happened since i last appeared on netalive. Checking on my last posts, it seems as though i left off right after spring break or so. *Inhales* here goes.

So i had the whole ordeal with my long distance relationship. We are still dating, and we really do like each other very much. We talk almost every day, and he is coming to visit me next weekend. We have decided to break up or take a break or whatever when he leaves, for logical purposes. I really feel as though i love him, but then again, if you read my past posts, i have no idea what the heck i mean when i say love.

Tuesday, april 26th, i was on center point road, going about 50, with 2 of my friends in the car. Around a curve and a hill, a man in a truck with a flatbed trailer hitched behind came around the turn, swinging a bit wide. Swerving to miss the trailer, i lose control of my car, hit the ditch and flip over into a ditch, taking out about 15 feet of log fencing and about a 100 feet of grass. The friend in the passenger seat was fine, she actually hitchhiked the rest of the way to school to tell our band director we couldnt be at concert festival that day. *Shakes head* my backseat passenger, however, was not as lucky. She was life flighted to vanderbilt medical center, where she had reconstructive surgery on her eye and her cheek. After they finally stabilized her, they said she would be just fine. She had some nasty stitches in her eye and her knee, and a massive headache, but other than that, she was good to go, and they let her out of the hospital that evening. Before the accident, she had always had very long hair that she always put into a ponytail or a bun. Afterwards, her hair was matted from blood and glass and such, that they had to cut it all off. Now she has a cute kitty-cut that suits her very well, and she went to prom that weekend and everything. I thank god that he blessed us with such a fortunate outcome of such a terrible event. I guess i payed my share, though. The truck driver never stopped. My insurance paid for everything. My friends bills, my bills, whatever else shit they throw in there and make it sound official... All that jazz.

I went on a bit of a guilt trip after that, i was more emotionally damaged than i was physically. But everything turned out very well in the end, so i dont feel quite as bad. But people like to remind me of my mistake, so itll take me a while to live it down.

My mother, on the other hand... Isnt handling it quite so well. She bought me a new car that she wont let me drive anywhere, and when i do drive, shes right there next to me, screaming, no, not scolding or saying things in a strong tone. Screaming. *Shrugs* what can i do? Haha. I wish she would lighten up and realize, the accident wasnt really my fault. (Okay, i was speeding a little bit, but everyone does. Even her!!!)

This past saturday i tried out for show choir. So that should be interesting. The director complemented me on my audition performance, so i should be alright. :)

Well, thats about it. Star wars comes out in 2 days. Whos excited? Connie is. :) What can i say? Im a geek at heart.

Nevertheless, my life has been quite eventful if i dont say so myself. Anyway, its good to be back. Just try to lighten up a bit on the terrible ratings. Its very .... Discouraging. :)

xo Connie ox

P.S. - oh no!! im down to three red stars!!! x_x;;;
