wowwie

so, i've played raquetball for a total of 2 hours today- once for class, once for fun. kinda tuckered out. but, this week is homecoming week, and tomorrow starts the homecoming festivities. tomorrow is dress your major day- i'm excited about that one. then it's miss-match day, then black and gold day. then the game is saturday. and so is the 5k run/walk that april and i are going to do. we are making our selves do this. and we're actually preparing for it. not nearly enough in advance, but we're doing it. so much to do, so much fun to have. i really should be doing some laundry right now- and might just be going to do some, but, i'm not in the mood. so, i think i'm not gonna- i'll wait till april will do it with me, which is hard for her right now because she's not here. maybe tomorrow will be laundry day... blah.

basically- yea.

so, basically i feel like poo.
i have been out of the rom twice in the past two days- once to walmart, once to chapel. my throat is so amazingly sore- it hurts to think about it. i woke up every four hours last night- and haven't been able to sleep for a time span longer than that since i got sick. i just got out of the shower- and i'm hoping that makes me feel a smidge better. my throat hurts all the way into my ears. my jaw, ears, throat, and whole body just ache. swallowing is pretty much impossible- and just hurts too bad. so- i'm supposed to go back to the doctor in a week if i haven't gotten any better. so, i'm back to bed. to try to sleep- or, just lay there and not swallow. maybe some more meds... night love kiss

amazing

my life rocks. completely and totally! i love my life! i am so blessed my God i have everything i do, and the abilities i have, and of course, the amazing people in my life. i love college and everything about it! there is nothing i would change about my life. except missing my parents. i miss them a lot. but, never fear- dad should be in AR today, and mom will soon follow. i find myself constantly smiling and never wondering why-but knowing that everyday is a good day because i am alive, and happy, and well. the only thing that ever gets me down about my days is my job- and even when i'm at work, i'm talking to people and having a good time with my co-workers. i love my life, and everything/one in it. can't wait to see my parents.

on a completely different note- yesterday kyle took me with him shopping... he wanted my opinion... what does that mean? don't know, don't care. i like it. lol. today after speech class, a guy who i have not talked to much and i just randomly started talking after class and walked together to the student center at a very lazy pace and talked the whole way! i love that! last night when i met grant, i was excited to meet him- but it was hard to have a conversation with him... i had to put effort in to it... i hate that... i mean- he's a cool guy- but i don't like having to work to have a conversation with someone. but- it's cool. so- david, the guy i was talking to after speech is really tall. like at least a foot taller than me. he's taller than aaron(whom he met) -passed him while walking on the way tothe SC- so... yea. he plays the violin, and tennis- and he likes hearing about my clumsy tennis playing... almost hit the green today... i swung my racket really hard- and it ended up between my knees- and not thinking i tried to take a step forward- and almost fell on my face. but didn't thank goodness... but i did fall UP the stairs this morning. i walked out of the room with a bunch of stuff in my hands- and got to the 2nd floor when i realized i had left my keys in the room(unlocked). so i turned around really quickly, with all that stuff, and my tennis bag kinda got caught up around my feet- and i feel up the stairs. so- needess to say, today has been an eventfull day for lyn and her feet.

everything in roomate land is going really well- wouldn't change it for the world.

i'm hanging out with paden again tonight- i hung out with him after church on sunday night. so, i saw him in passing last night, and he asked me to hang out with him again. i'm excited. he asked me to go to the LR air show on saturday- but i declined. told him i'd go another time. he settled for hanging out tonight instead.

college guys are so NOT high school guys- i love it.

i have a big art project due at 3 tomorrow that is only half done- trying to get enough done today so i can finish it in class tomorrow. so far it looks good. this one might want to be framed mom. we'll see.

love and kisses.

back pain

i woke up this morning with a pretty bad pain in my back. i got up took some tylenol and went back to sleep. and kept sleeping. and kept sleeping. and kept sleeping. so, needless to say, i went to bedside this morning. but, now i have a chance to clean the room before open house tonight. and then i'll be able to do some laundry later.
didn't do laundry yesterday because i woke up too late before erin's parents got here. didn't feel like getting up at 7:30 to do laundry. but, it'll get done- not a big deal.
i bought myself a green courduroy jacket. it's very cute. and very plain. i really like it. i especially like that it was only 10 bucks. it has fake pockets with kinda miffs me- but, it's ok.
still have a slight pain in my back- the pain that's pretty much always there- so, i think i might get up and start some cleaning. then go to lunch, then to work. but we're having open house tonight- that makes me happy. this is the first one i've been here for. for some reason erin and i weren't here when we had the first one, so lucy and her friends from wherever had a thing in our room- since it's the biggest. so, i think i'll go now. got lots to do. feel like i've wasted a lot of my day already...

AWESOME!

last night/today stuff

last night i went to harbin devo with matt johnson. and it was good times. matt is a very nice guy who likes to hide behind himself. kinda. somehting like that. he's not very out going, and i know if he was everyone would love him. i don't know anyone that knows him that doesn't adore him. so- matt... i hate to tell you, but, we love you. sorry. even in the 97323407Q degree weather, it was a good devo. the speaker was... weird. but the devoting part i liked. the singing was good and all. so, probably gonna go back to that every now and again.
today was a great day aside from having to get up at 8:00 AM toget ready, walk to tennis, and find out it was canceled. yea. that sucked. but, other than that it was a great day. two classes other than the 15 minute chapel- so you can't beat that with a wooden spoon.
fun times, fun times.

today.

today is year day! horay for year day! 09/20/05. that's too cool for school. and that last sentence had 6 o's in it... that amuzes me...
so. today was a pretty ok day.
i went to the nurse, to make sure i wasn't dying. my kidney has been giving me some pain lately, and so, i wasn't very thrilled about it. and my esophogas is not longer falling out. just a little throat pain when i first wake up and really late at night(early in the morning). so... i may still be dying, just not as quickly.
work is going well. i guess. it's work. i got to talk to mom and dad tonight, so that was cool.
school is... yicky. i made a 75 on my western civ test. i feel kinds grose about that grade considering all my other gradesin that class were 100's. so- yea, gotta step that up a notch. my grade in bible is currently an A- so that makes me uber-happy. and if i had other classes that cared to post grades, i would check them- but since i don't, that kinda puts a kink in my grade update. so- yea.
ummm..
hit myself with my own tennis racket today. yea. that was impressive. coach just laughed at me... but he stayed by our court, and complimented me several times on my back hand(my forehand needs work... a lot of work). and he also was amazed that i could actually make the ball go over the fence with my serve. he asked where i learned to serve, so i said volleyball, and he said "no wonder". so- then i started playing with a girl in there with me, and we were volleying and she hit it too me, but i fell a little short of the ball, and didn't hit it very hard, and so it didn't get all the way over the net- and the girl i was playing with yelled "hit it again!" and so i yelled back "i can't! i'm a volleyball player! that's the unforigvable sin!" and coach just doubled over and laughed. so, i really enjoy that class. i'm a little afraid of raquet ball- that could be painfull. considering i hit myself with my own tennis raquet- and the raquet ball court is enclosed... this could be bad.

oops.

i feel kinda bad. i slept right up to 8o'clock. and missed my 8o'clock. but, i haven't been feeling physically well for about a week- so, i'm going to see the nurse today. right after all my classes. test in western civ today- ewww. so, i'm going to study for that for the next 20 minutes. maybe it's a good thing i didn't go to wellness today- more time for western civ.
