This week has just been kicking my ass. I write this now, at 12:36 am when I should be getting to bed because it's the first opportunity I've had to write anything. I had tests this week, I had work, and I had preparing to do for tomorrow. Speaking of which, tomorrow is the first day of the women's leadership conference that I am speaking at. I'm hoping it'll be fun. I'm not sure if I'm really prepared for it, but I think I'll do ok.

So, I felt bad about my sentiments towards Chris, the boy I spoke of in my last entry. So, I decided to talk to him more. I figure, even though he annoyed me last Friday, that doesn't mean I should completely blow the guy off for good. I know if I chat with him more, I may even be able to help him with the issues even he knows he has. I spent a good deal of time talking with him a couple nights ago, and I think I helped. Time will tell there.

This conference has me thinking a lot. There are going to be a lot of women at this event. The question is, am I really ready to try to start looking for a relationship again? Do I want to seek out someone? Am I emotionally ready for that? I'm not sure if I am yet. I definitely still have body image issues to clear up. I dunno, maybe another year of being single and dealing with hair removal and surgery and such. Then maybe I will be comfortable enough with myself and my body. Then maybe I might be ok with a relationship. Then again, maybe a relationship is just what I need right now. We'll see what happens in the next few days. I hope at least I make some new friends. Well, I better get going. I got some stuff still to do before I get some sleep. G'night all.

Luv,

Jess

If anyone knows about my job, they may think that the subject of this entry reflects the all-nighter we had this weekend, but no, it doesn't. Last night I decided to hell with it. I need to force myself into a good schedule. So, with the help of some friends, I did. I stayed up all night. I'm feeling it right now. In 45 minutes I'm going to get some coffee and some breakfast. I don't need the breakfast nearly as much as the coffee. It's going to be a long 12 hours. I wont get home tonight until around 7:45 pm. It's 7:20 am right now. Yeah...not too happy with myself right now.

One thing I'm particularly not proud of is that when it was time to take my friends back to their dorm, one of them was asleep on my futon. We woke her up and she just rolled over and fell asleep again. I made a joke beforehand that we could always try the shaving cream and feather trick, but I was only joking. Well, the other person thought it was funny and wanted to do it. I, being tired and stupid, thought it would be funny. If I had been awake I may have given thought to the consequences of my actions. Yeah, that didn't happen. So the plan went off without a hitch and she woke up. Yeah, she wasn't too happy about that either. She didn't say anything the whole way home, and slammed the door. I am going to apologize profusely when I talk to her next. I feel like a huge jerk...probably because I am.

Well, I'm going to focus on staying awake for a while. Write soon.

So I saw the Matrix Revolutions Friday night. I personally don't see what is so bad about it. I liked it, and I'm going into film and video production! The ending was a bit over the top, yes, but that's my only complaint. The only major thing I didn't enjoy was the person I was sitting next to during the film. He was talking and making dumb comments I'm sure he thought were funny. His name is Chris and he's a straight ally to the LGBT. Furthermore, he's immature and is always looking for attention. He drove me insane and I wanted to smack him. I wasn't the only one too. The girl on the other side of him actually covered his mouth up at one point. Grrr.

This boy wants to run for the open position in the LGBT next semester. No offense to him, but I think a lot of people in the group would resent him being in office. I mean, it's the LGBT. Having a straight person in office doesnt really make sense. The other issues, which are a bit more important, are that one: he is immature. I don't think he's ready to handle that responsibility. And Two: He's a total closet case. Most of us think he's gay just by the way he acts, and on top of that, he feels the need to reassert his heterosexuality every five minutes. He's totally afraid of himself. It would be difficult for him if he decided to come out and be in office at the same time. Oh and on top of all of that...I'm running. He's a fool if he thinks he's going to get the position over me. (Crap...my ego is showing...hehe) Actually though, I have a lot of friends in the group. People know I'm active and that I'm responsible. I'm fairly certain I'll get the position anyway.

Well, enough of my bitchin. I'm going to bed. G'night all.

Luv,

Well, last night marked the second night this week in which I've been up later than 3:00 am. Both times were with friends coming over. Last night was by far the better of the two. I did not regret being up that late by any means. I would do it again if I could, and I may. The night started at about 6:00 pm. I was home from school and cleaning up a little while I prepared for going to work that night. I wanted to get some editing done. Well, that didn't happen.

I had also wanted to go to the Humane society to look at the kitties. When my friend Emily IMed me asking me what I was doing, I said I was going to look at kitties. She got all excited and asked if she and a few others could come along. I was like, "Sure, why not". So with a full car, we headed out to look at kitties together. It was fun. I loved playing with the cute ones. There were a few mean ones though too. I guess that happens.

After that we went to the evil store (Wal-Mart) and looked around. Wasn't too exciting. We then headed to my place and spent the night watching a movie, eating good food, and having a fun time. At three in the morning, we were starting to get tired out, but all in all, I could have kept going. It was fun. I decided that if I wanted to be sane today, I had to take them home then. Tonight we're going to see the Matrix. So, I hope it's as good as some say it is, and not as bad as others claim it is. I'm trying to keep my expectations low so I can't be disappointed.

I knew last year that when I checked out my apartment, this place would be great for entertaining people. I had hoped that I would have friends over frequently, get to watch movies and just have fun. Well, my wish came true and I do have the hang out apartment. I hope it stays that way over the summer too.

Oh, by the way, I ran into Rachel today, the lesbian activist and friend on campus. I happened to ask her about a certain cute brunette that I had been noticing lately. I had wondered by the way she was looking at me and randomly saying hi even though I didn't know her name that she was interested in me. Well, Rachel told me her name and that she's on her floor in the dorms. Judging from her reaction, she's just another cute straight girl. She didn't actually say it, but I could tell. Well...there's another bubble popped. That's three so far this semester....but who's counting.

Well, I'm at work and I better get back to it. Later all.

Luv,

Jessica

So yeah, I had heard that itchy boobs means they are growing, but wasn't sure. So I asked a female friend about it tonight. She confirmed that yes, indeed, it does mean they are growing. The stretching of the skin makes it dry and causes itching, apparently. So that means my boobs are officially growing, since they've been itching like crazy. I thought so, but it's good to know for sure. That's my happy update for now. See ya.

Luv,

Jessica
