Hold Onto Chance..

Today the year is 2010. So far we have come...so far indeed...lots has changed, almost too much to recap. Marquise left the 3rd to go off to boot camp for the National Guard. But before he left he helped me out, whenever I was having a rough day at school and just wanted to go crazy, he was there to calm me down and cheer me up. Just as I was there for him when he needed someone to talk to. That is just something I wont ever forget, and I know I am going to miss him a lot.

In the last couple weeks life has taken a turn I wasn't really expecting. Tuesday (December 29th, 2009) Marquise showed up to work to give me a hug, and with him he had his friend Matthew. I was busy taking down giant poinsettia decorations, and Marquise helped me out. So did Matt, he took the giant flower, and in the funniest way tried to help me down from the table I stood on. They left shortly after that, but I was texting Marquise and one thing lead to another and Marquise gave me Matt's number and Matt my number. By the end of the night Matt had texted me, first thing said was: "Hello my name is Matthew, I was the dude that took the large flower thing from u today. Thats all i can think of as the first thing to say to u." That was at 9:04pm Dec 29th 2009.

The next day, as things would come for a turn I was hanging out with my friend Jesse, and was invited to go see a movie in Niles with some people. These people formed a group of six....Marquise, Morgan, Matthew, his brother Michael, Jesse, and myself. After we saw Sherlock Holmes we went to Pizza Hut, and it was a lot of fun. The way home I was trailing them in my car, for I didn't know my way around the roads we traveled on. They would always go through lights on yellow and I'd always stop since they would turn red. But on one such light, it turned red for me and I went through it. When doing so Matt in the car in front of me opened the window and gave me the thumbs up. That day was a good day. We of course texted that night, and too much was on his mind to go to sleep...

The next day, it was the 31st. The very last day in 2009. Marquise and Matt of course were hanging out and had a party to go to at 10:00, so they came to my house. And hung out in my bedroom after enjoying a pizza I made. It was a lot of fun...and I got hugs from them both. I even walked them out to their car in my socks, even with the snow on the ground. I remember Matt taking his one shoe off for me to wear. I opened the car door for him and said something silly like "Your car madam". It was fun to hang out with people that makes me happy. So after that I curled up in bed, and was taxting Matt some, then when it got around to 11:55pm I got out of bed and watched the ball drop consuming some Welch's Sparkling Grape Juice. And shortly after the new year began, my phone rang and it was Matthew wanting to wish me a Happy Hanukkah since no one ever says that and he wants to bring it back haha. We talked some, and I really enjoyed it...He's a really sweet guy, and I look forward to getting to know him more.

Lastly on the 2nd, Marquise and Matt stopped by my house very late at night to say goodbye before MF left for Lansing. Marquise only stayed a little while giving me some hugs. I will miss him and look forward to his return so we can all hang out again.

Matt stayed a bit longer, but just in the kitchen with all the lights off, for my father was fast asleep and I didn't wish to wake him. We hugged, and had a little hand puppet fight. He makes me smile...but who knows what tomorrow will bring. For all I know is I have half a year of school to go until break, and when my break comes I look forward to hopefully seeing more of Matt.

Cause I Feel Like Such An Insomniac

It's been a little while since I last typed down the things that are in my head. I've been working a lot, enjoying some of my co-workers company more than others. I've gone to the beach with Leigha and her son Aidyn, visited a local Pizza Hut with those two plus little Casey, gone on a beach walk Marquise, the fair with Leigha, Aidyn, Rob, Joelin, and Austin.

I've never been a big fan of children but I just enjoy spending time with little Aidyn, he's only three but so sweet and adorable. He doesn't say much but sometimes people don't need to say anything.

Probably the most relaxing time I've had in a long time was when I went to the beach with M.F. we just walked the shoreline and just talked about everything, then eventually we sat down and talked some more, watched the sunset and he gave me the best backrub I've ever had. It was just what I really needed. I think he's probably going to become a good friend of mine, he's very easy to talk to and get along with.

Amusing time at the fair was when I ran into my ex and seemed to have made him jealous by walking side by side with Rob, see Rob is 25 years old, but looks about 30. Oh the joys of having people who care about you, and like spending time with you.

Today I am trying to rush through some summer reading...I have like four books to read and journals to write all in less than two weeks to complete. I'm starting to feel the stress but I have confidence that I will finish it all in time for my Jr school year to begin.

On a side note I'm back to not being able to sleep...last time I slept soundly was after working eight hours and that day at the beach with Marquise. I wish someone would please take me away from here...

Would you save me?

Today...A day off...one of those things that are sometimes good and needed and other times something you wish would be over quickly.

I went to the chiropractors, then stopped by the SGC and everyone was surprised to see me in a dress with my hair down. I went in to get my hours for next week just to make sure they hadn't changed too much since a few people were going to be gone from the area on vacation in the next week. Then after that took my grandparent's out to lunch since my Grandmother's birthday was yesterday. When I got home I went on a quick walk with Mrs Lawrence and Fargo, she stopped by to drop off a camera for me to borrow :-)

And now I'm sitting in my bed thinking about how much I miss work and how I wish I knew what people really thought of me. I wonder if only you knew, would you save me?

That girl's a genius

Did I ever tell you that one time last week that me and my wonderful sister went to a concert up in Lansing? Oh it was fantastic, there were several opening bands, two out of the three I remember the names to, but only one of them was really fantastic. The first band up was just horrible and that is when we took that chance to check out what was around the area, including this game which you have drunk people try and hit a golf ball across the river onto a small say 10x10x10 green platform with a hole in the middle, whoever gets closest was to win. My sister and I were both hoping that somehow the golfers would hit a passer by with their shot, but no such luck...at least not while we were watching. The second band up was Parachute, they were ok but nothing worth downloading to put on your mp3 player. The last opening act was that of the musical talent of JET, the group is from Australia. They played one song that I particularly liked and it was "She's A Genius", ever so fantastic. Anyways this was all the lead up to the main event, that of Three Doors Down. I was rather pleased with their performance, other than the fact that after every song the lead singer, (Brad Arnold) would say to the audience "Thank you my friends!". It was after the 3rd or 4th time he said it that it started to become more of a joke between my sister and I. All and all you know that, 'that girl's a genius'.

To us the world is different

Lately in my life my back pain has caught up to me and I have been visiting the local chiropractor to help straighten me out, so today on my day off I went in to get an adjustment. Hopefully I'll be straight as an arrow with time and work. I'm also in the process of going through and cleaning my room. But for now I have my head stuck in the clouds and sipping on my Earl Grey tea that I brewed just a few minutes ago.

Yesterday at work one of the girls was fired, so closing was rather crazy being short two people than usually recommended. My co-worker, Marquise, and I were the only ones really busting our asses to get out of there and despite our best efforts we all were finally able to leave at 8:45pm, that's 45 minutes after we are to close....*sigh* well it seems to me that if you want anything done right you just have to do it yourself and no matter how hard you try you are only one person and it's hard to get ten things done alone, or in my case get ten things done by just two people.

Like a warrior

This is my first post, most likely the first you would read if you decided to start creepin' me. My name is Adri and that's about all you need to know about my name. I'm currently going into my Junior year of high school which is ever so exciting I know. I'm currently working at the SGC (which is obviously shortened but if you know me then you'd know what it stands for). I'm single, brown hair, and blue eyes. I'm an Aries and live in a little town that no one from out of town has heard of. This is me in a short condensed little package, I'll probably rarely update this but who cares I don't even have any 'friends' on this website so suck it bitches and enjoy the ride.
