God has the right people in my life at the right time. Why's He always on top of things? Oh wait... He's God.

My sister and I went to church an hour late, thinking it started at the usual time. I missed Easter Sunday church. I haven't been this disappointed in a long time. I seriously thought I was going to cry. Ha. It was going to be the highlight of my weekend. Luckily, you don't have to be at church to spend time with God. I'm going to lay out and read my bible and realize how amazing my life is. I hope you all have the most amazing day and breathe Life.

I sit here, in my cute little room, crafted to express my personality, and I remember how often I return to this point in my life- where I reflect, look back upon all the character-altering experiences that have recently knit my personality so unknowingly instant by instant.

For the first time in a long time... )

So I haven't used this in quite a while.

My life is in transition. LOTS to look forward to. Some stuff that I'm sad to let go of. And still some that I'm going to fight to keep.

I realize new things about myself everyday. The way I see the world. The way I feel about myself. The way I feel about others (in general and specifically).

I'm lonely and crowded all at the same time.

Some of the people I want around the most are the furthest away and they might not even know it... although a few tend to be hundreds of miles away haha.

Life is hard, but definitely good.

I just need refreshing. I'm tired and going to bed. Getting up to run in the morning.

I can't get over the idea that 3 years after I moved away for college, I spent the summer at home and drew much closer to the people I left behind. And although it sounds weird, I feel more secure leaving this time around simply because I'm comfortable in the relationships I have- knowing that I'll see all them again with in weeks of eachother and that I've found true friends in them. Just watching them, listening to them, and loving them has taught me a lot this summer- about myself and about what loving people & seeing them the way God sees them begins to look like.

I love you guys. Thank you for making my life that much brighter.

Its close to 3 in the morning, and I sit here realizing that I can't even measure how much I've learned about myself this summer. And although I can't even begin to detail the things that I've learned, I can say with confidence that I know my own strengths and weaknesses, that I can challenge myself, and that I do know who "Anne" is more now than ever. I know this sounds so random, but leave a little girl to sit by herself and think at 3 in the morning, and this is the outcome.

Whew [05 Aug 2005|12:58am]
Today was such a good day. I fell asleep at 6AM after going out, then talking on the phone with someone who I didn't know well in HS, but am getting the chance to know now. Chris called and woke me up at noon... and although, I would normally be bitter, I was pleased because Katie and Joe (formerly known as Kathleen and Jose) came over. We sat around uselessly for hours which proved to be more entertaining then it sounds. Jose tried on his first pair of girl-pants and a hoodie 4times too small. I have the pics! Chris came over after work. He and I ate and then saw Wedding Crashers. In true annE fashion, I laughed too loud at some parts, but enjoyed myself nonetheless. When we were leaving the theatre, it was raining the hardest I've seen in a long time. Really refreshing, but somewhat scary for some reason. Then, Katie, Joe & Melea called and told us they had a surprise... turned out to be Joe in FULL emo attire... funniest thing all day- check out his myspace pics. Hung out there... came home, hung with Chris for a long time, and now I'm going to rest my eyes feeling refreshed and at peace. This week has been an interesting, yet all-together good week.

See you soon lil loves.

Return from St Barths [25 Jul 2005|01:50am]

When this is view from your back porch, how could you have any worries in the world?

St Barths was amazing as ever. I miss my mom and bro. But I had an awesome time hanging with my sis and cousins. My friends are the best at treating us like princesses and making us feel special. I wish I was still there... life is so much simpler and smaller. I will be back there for New Year though!

My friends all have the weirdest names. Zarek. Rudolph. Cale. Daveed. Gracen. Chloe. Clementine. Guanel. Julio (like Julieo) Hervay. Weirdest names.

Here we go again.... [07 Jul 2005|01:35pm]
[ mood | confused ]

I'm off to St Barts with the sis again. You would think I'd be excited huh? Nope... think again. My little bro ran away on the 4th of July and has yet to return. Its this huge complicated situation involving a lot of legal/police stuff. My poor mom's heart is broken and I hate leaving her. She keeps pretending like she's going to be okay, but I know the second she leaves us at the airport, she's going to break down... with no one to pick her up. Please pray for my mom, my bro, and my family. My brother is one of the most amazing people I've ever met and I hate seeing his life take these turns.

Anyway, I'll have internet access while I'm gone, so hopefully I'll be able to chat for a few minutes with people. I really miss everyone! I feel spread so thin.

Hopefully I'll have awesome updates in the days to come.

LOVE you all. -annE

My life's out of control and I can't do anything about it. I guess that's the definition of being out of control. Anyway, when did I become so pathetic? Haha

So even though I was a grump for part, the boys couldn't make a decision for the life of em, and I got sunburned... Speed Dial 2005 was amazing. Unfortunately we were having too much fun that we forgot to take pics. Anywhere from eating at an obscene restaurant in SD, to pirate ships at night

Just what I needed with just the right people. God knows when/where things need to happen to get my head straight and keep my life on track.
PS I love bragging that one of MY best friends is the hot Greeley boy that all those cute lil ladies like.

I leave for St Barts in a couple days. Crazy. The summer is going by so quickly.

Kirk and Julie text message so much they are both going to have carpal tunnel syndrome in 3 months. Don't even think about taking my blank texts! :)

Should Be Interesting! [29 Jun 2005|12:43am]
Tomorrow morning, I'm off with my favorite couple, Casey and Kirk, to Cali. Going to see Mr. Applebach shake his bon-bon at Warped Tour! I'm excited to escape. The boys better treat me well, or they are gonna get some pepper spray to the eyes!

Not worth reading [10 May 2005|11:26pm]
Which is worse... giving up something that means the world to you? or realizing it never meant the same on the other end?

So life lately is so odd. I can't even begin to tell you. Immediately after I typed that however, I realized that its not my life that's odd, but ME- simply put.

Last weekend, I went to 3 shows in 3 nights. Handcrafted friday, Greeley saturday, and The Format sunday. It was soooo pleasant to get to hang with my friends I haven't seen in a while. Then off to Uncle Bear's Karaoke late night Sunday. You never know what's gonna happen.

Last night was YL Photo Scavenger Hunt... you can see pics on a ton of people's journals. Somehow, my face is distorted in almost every one though!

I had 2 finals today. I feel moderate success. But mostly, I just want to be done. I'm a Senior now? Can you believe it? Wasn't I supposed to grow up somewhere in these years? One more to go tomorrow afternoon.

I spent great quality time today with the roomies. Went to lunch with Mags and Savan. Went to dinner and a movie with Savan, Esco, Kris, Kirk, Casey, Dan, and Sean. Its good to feel like you have friends even when you've pushed them away.

I really really wish I could go home Sunday. I want to meet Caleb. I want to see Kathy. I want to see my friend John, home from NY for the weekend. But nope, annE's working the freakin peach festival. At least I'll have $100 and get to hang with friends.

These past couple weeks have been super hard for me... as most of you know by now. So much is going on inside my head. So much is happening around me. I feel bad being so private about things, but I just can't seem to articulate any of my thoughts in a reasonable manner.

On top of that, in the recent days, I've felt my heart BREAK for some extremely close friends of mine. Some of the greatest people I know are hurting so much more than they let on. Its hard because even though I can be an ass to everyone at one time or another, I do care about my friends/family beyond anything- including myself. I want to be the hero and make it all better, but I'm not the person they should be leaning to.

The hardest part of it all is that ultimately I've sacrificed my closest, longest, deepest friendship in recent weeks. I can't even begin to tell you how difficult it is to go from talking to one person every day of your life and then feeling as though you may never share your thoughts again. Its almost like mourning something. So like I said, I don't know what hurts more- knowing you gave up something that meant the world to you- or knowing that it never meant the same to them?

It comes down to my desperate plea for strength and hope. My prayer for the people that I love to see the good in their surroundings. And protection from everything that pulls me away from being the woman I was intend and want to be.

Off to study.

I miss you.

Chiseled Buttocks [08 May 2005|03:25am]

Went to The Death of Greeley tonight. Saw my friends. Loved the show. Felt so so proud, I can't even begin to tell you. Went to Flavio's (formerly Fili B's), then to Julie's bros, then to my house to watch the Greeley DVD.

The DVD was hilarious. And I'm proud to say that YES Josh does slap a rather large slab of meat in it. Put it on slow-mo and watch it again and again!!

Its so interesting to see where:
A)that band has gone since I met the two struggling chicago boys at the NFG (Further/Finch) show 3 years ago. They were still looking for members to complete their band and cited Finch as a major influence.
and
B)to see what one of my best friends is achieving in his life. I just want it declared that watching Josh on stage tonight with over 1200 kids dancing and singing along was so surreal. I can't think of anyone else that I would rather see in his place. I'm glad he postponed completing school, I'm glad he left Gethsemane, I'm glad he went out on a limb and pursued something most "responsible" people were telling him to avoid. Even if the band ended tomorrow, he will still be able to look back on life and say that he traveled the country playing in a successful/profiting band and had the time of his life- and hasn't compromised any part of himself in the process. I found myself smiling looking around the theatre at crowds of nameless faces, seeing his family there, watching my friends having such a genuinely good time. I honestly felt such pride.

Josh, I'm so glad we all got to be there tonight. I'm proud of all the work you've put in and how tonight reflected your efforts. I freaking adore you, so seeing you happy and content tonight was so contagious. You are loved by a lot of people, and I hope you felt it tonight! Congrats.

Going to bed feeling much better tonight than I have in days.

Take your moms out today!

LOVE.
