I'm sure it didn't ruin her, just made her more interesting.

I was getting crap from the peanut gallery about not writing. Alas, here I am again.
Projects, finals and papers - oh my! Really, I have this big master list of all the things I have left to finish and turn in before the end of the semester, and holy moly, it's a big one. I don't think I would have ever finished it had it not been for my hard work the rest of the semester. Good thing I am completely organized and structured.
Well, we have had three nice days in a row here in Dayton. I even got to take my little convertible on a drive with the top down. It felt great - I cannot wait for summer though! I think the rest of the week is supposed to be rainy. But, maybe the weather will be nicer in Columbus since I'll be there this weekend. Speaking of this weekend, it would have been Ry's 19th birthday on Saturday, and it is Brandon's confirmation. Also on Saturday, Lynyrd Skynyrd is coming to Columbus. Well, I woke up one morning feeling like I really had to e-mail someone from the band to tell them about Ryan. So, I did. And, I got an e-mail back saying they were definitely forwarding the message on to the band. I am not telling my cousins or anything yet. I might tell them before the concert because there may be a nice shout out to Ry. We'll see. I'm nuts.
This past weekend was a lot of fun. I am really enjoying my weekends with my friends because we are coming down to the home stretch of school, and this is my last few weekends with the whole university. It is really weird, and I started getting really sentimental this past weekend. It's all starting to hit me. Ahhhhh!!!
In the past two weeks, I have had to visit churches to speak about organ donation for my one class. I have been to an Episcopal church and a Presbyterian church. Fun. The one big thing I noticed was the people there were so nice. I felt extremely welcomed there. It was weird because I thought I would feel awkward, but I didn't...well, except when I ate the bread too early then spit it back out. Oooops. It wouldn't have been a successful visit if I hadn't done something stupid though.
Oh, another interesting thing I'm doing is volunteering for the Aids Resource Center Ohio Red Gala. It is going to be a lot of fun. On the one night, it will be a small preview cocktail party, then the next night will be a huge dinner. What is so cool about the event is that there will be 40 different "rooms" where you can eat, and each room has been decorated by a different designer to look totally different from any other room. One designer was even laying sod on the ground so you would feel like you were outside in a field eating. It will be so neat, and I know the crowd there will be interesting and fun. I dragged Erin into doing it with me, so I'll have a friend too. I am super excited, and it will keep us busy on our study days. Yep, we're the losers who have nothing to do on study days because we've already done all of our studying and homework and projects. Haha. This gala will be a good thing to keep us busy.
Well, I do believe this is quite enough. I need to focus on my other projects now I suppose.

"As we grow up we learn that the one person who isn’t supposed to let you down probably will. And the one person that you never thought would be there for you is. You’re going to have fights with your friends; you’re going to lose some of your friends. You will eventually lose someone you love and love someone you never thought you’d find. People are going to hate you, love you, love to hate you, and hate to love you. But the ones who mean the most to you will always be there. Life is too short. So have way too much fun, make way too many mistakes, take way too many pictures, have way too many friends and enemies, laugh way too much for way too long, cry way too hard over the smallest of things, but, most importantly, love with all you have."
