i haven't written in a while... I'm currently at FSU, and just finished my first week of college. Its nice, no parents or anything. I'm listening to Incubus right now.. my roomate jenna and i are on our computers. My other roomate, Brittany is in Gainsville today to see her friend. At first, i wasn't really into them.. they're growing on me haha. At least we all get along. I guess part of the growing experience is just to be able to accept other people for who they are. I thought i did that anyway, but you learn a lot about yourself by switching your environment up. I'm now on facebook, so please poke me or send a message or whatever if youare too! Erma Kyriakos.. at FSU. Ok cool, so i've updated my journal. I keep a "real journal" now too.. i feel like i can't say everything iw asnt to in this one. But don't worry i'll keep writing. hopefully haha.

Yes, its true, i've finally graduated highschool. Oh West Shore, it's been fun. And not so fun. But i really have met some of the best people i will ever meet in my life. This includes teachers. I hope i run into some later in life.

Mr. Murphy's speech was amazing, i got a few tears rolling down my cheek through that. Especially his reference to me during Grad Bash with, "what's that smell?". All the students' speeches were great too. But i have to say, i really lost it after we graduated and hugged Mr. Murphy, and then... i ran into Amanda back stage. Then we both started hysterically crying like our arms had been chopped off or something. Parting is such sweet sorrow.

Congrats to West Shore's class of 2005!!!!! There will never be another like us.

ok, so i have this thing, where if i see a new movie and i like it, i obsess about it for at least a week. The new movie i saw for the first time about 4 days ago is, Nightmare Before Christmas. Its so good,i find myself singing the songs all day, i watch scenes, if not the whole movie, everyday. i need to buy it. or at least the soundtrack. I've heard that Tim Burton's coming out with a new thing sort of like Nightmare, but its suppossedly really dark. I haven't heard anything about it besides my friends, i can't wait to see it tho.

I saw Kindom of Heaven last night. It was ok. Orlando Bloom is so damn hot. But he hardly talked the whole movie. and if he did talk it was in reply to someone's question. Oh well, it was nice seeing him on the big screen as always.

Today's Jamila's birthday! happy birthday Jamila! today is also Kevin's birthday! Happy birthday Kevin! Today's my half-birthday! Happy half-birthday to me!

I'll be wrapping gifts for mother's day today, otherwise i'm totally bored, and i think jamila's having a little get together at ioanna's house. should be fun. peace.

my cell is not working. i just had a dentist appointment. i have a french project...still. and i haven't gotten paid for a gig i did on Saturday. What the hell. That relaly upsets me. I played at eau gallie's prom nad was supposed to get paid there, but the lady's like oh sorry blah blah...it'll be monday or tuesday when you get your checks. I was a little disturbed but not too bad. Its tuesday now and i haven't heard anything from anyone. I better get fucking paid. See but i hate that i feel this way. Money makes people greedy. But why shouldn't i want the money? i worked, i should get paid. And its not just me. amanda, kelly, and lucy too.

I'm glad i get to add "go to cingular store" on to the list of things for me to do now. Stupid cell phones. Almost the worst invention ever. i love my cell phone though. ugh.

Now i have a violin lesson tomorrow. I haven't practed private lesson stuff in soooooo long its unbelievable. I got into fsu's school of music and now i'm so lazy to practice. I hope once i get there i get more motivated. My point is... that my teacher is going to be all like... why haven't you practiced blah blah. He's a really nice man. I think people in the school orchestra think i practice like 2 hours a day on other really hard stuff, but its just not true. it used to be, but not anymore. Hopefully again soon.

gaw damn i dont' want to do this project.

Current Mood: stressed

to sum it all up, i've got this french project i've got to do. This past weekend was my Pascha (Easter), and then Bacaloreat (sp?). Why is Mrs. Walker trying to still teach us more french? we're done. This is time for review. I dont' think i can bare another day of taking out my list of "vocabulaire" or opening my text book, or trying to sound intelligent while i'm speaking french. Tomorrow is when our projects are due and maybe she'll be done after that.

I might aswell get started on it. catch you on the flip side.

i went to a funeral today. The dead body in the coffin didn't freak me out at all. probably because they put makeup on her to make her look like she's alive, but it wasn't disturbing. It was sad to see her go, she was the mother of my old greek dance instructor. I never really knew her, but she had a walker and an oxygen tank. Fran (my old dance instructor) was there with her husband and two sons along with other family. They seemed to be handling it well and she said, you can't cheat death. Her husband gave a wonderful speech about the old woman and i remember he said one of the last things she told him was to tell someone how you feel when you feel it. Don't wait because you never know what tomorrow entails. She was right. The overall feeling in the room was happy. It wasn't depressing at all. It was light. Which i liked. People were remembering her good times and how she helped other people and was active in church. She died on her Nameday, making prosphoro, a bread which becomes enditheron (the body of Christ) in church. So i'm dedicating this journal entry to Georgia Metropoulos. May God have mercy on her soul and remember that He and He alone is without sin.

Amen.

i feel like my face is going to fall off. So much pressure on my face because of my stuffy/runny nose. I stayed home from school today. I did not sleep at all last night. My whole body is sore. I keep opening the refrigerator for food, but then i remember i'm not hungry and there's nothing to eat anyways. so i'll go watch tv, then get bored, then watch some more tv. i need to sleep. Sweet stavros keeps calling to see how i am doing. I'm sure he's disgusted with the sound of me blowing my nose while i'm on the phone with him, but thats ok. i'm going to go be bored some more. peace.

Current Mood: uncomfortable

I woke up this morning and my nose was stuffy. booo. then i got out of bed and my head started pounding. Yay! ilove being sick! just a head cold really, a little bit of a cough, but not a lot. i went to church for my palm sunday (yay orthodoxy!) a little bit with my parents then i had to leave cause i was about to pass out and i have a bsyo concert rehearsal at 12:45. Concert is at 3:30 king center for anyone that wants to go. So i made me a pb&j, took a claritin and 2 advil. I'm a little drugged up right now but feeling a wee bit better.

So grad bash was awesome! I hung out with Amber the whole night and other people on and off. Amber is such an amazing person. I can learn a lot from her. I'm kind of upset i didn't get to hang with Amanda and Christa more, but it was kind of a thing where we were heading out as they were going in/passing by/hi,bye kind of thing. but i hope they had fun too.

I got to see the baby twins again yesterday and this morning. So cute. Stephen got a hair cut by a barber yesterday instead of me. Which is good because i'm not a great barber. but i need a lesson or something, cause i really do suck at it and poor stavros has to suffer. teehee. well i'm going to go chillax now, rest up for the not so great bsyo concert, but hey, its the last one that i'll EVER have to be in.

thats all today was, nothing spectacular. I guess it will all seem that way until graduation. Which, by the way, i am not going to project graduation. What kind of stupid ass shit is it to keep hostage of a hundred or so seniors until 5 am. i asked the lady in charge of it all about it and she was like, "there will be 'quiet' rooms for people to sleep in if you get tired," why the hell would i want to sleep on the floor in a theme park when i have the best bed in the world. je ne sais pas!? so therefore, i will not be attending. i was going to bring stavros too, but i doubt he will want to stay there for that long either. (FIY: Stavros is Stephen is Steve is my boyfriend...don't worry people, it took me like 2 months to figure out that all 3 names were the same person.)

Unfortunately for Stephen, some aspects of his life will be exposed on this Livejournal. sorry sweet thang. Speaking of him, i went to see the baby twins last night. soooo adorable. they are like little monkeys. what a beautful family krisa and arte have started.

GRAD BASH TOMORROW! praise the lord! this week has gone by too slow. tomorrow in school will be hell. but tomorrow night will be awesome. i'm glad Sally's going and i will get to hang out with her too. not that i dont' see her everyday, but you know, i love her. i totally wish it was at Disney World but you can't have everything.

hopefull i'll be able to rent nightmare before christmas tonight. i've never seen it and neither has steve so i will cross my fingers.

yoga tonight! mmm i love yoga, its the best thing to come out of senior project. It's time for Oprah right now, i loves me the Oprah. peace and porsperity to you.

i get to see my boyfriend's twin nephews/godsons tonight! they are adorable and i can't wait to see them! they make cute baby noises. i got tulips for a little "thank you" to krisa and arte (brother and sister-in-law to stephen).

I'm having a little dilema of what to do for a graduation party. I have my invite list all ready and its mostly my parents friends, greek dancers, family, and a few West Shorians. The problem is that it seems like everyone in the senior class and their brother is having their party that day. Sunday, May 22nd if anyone wants to come haha. Mine is like parent-family oriented though... not the get down and diiirty kind of party. Well, i hope i have a good turn out. If not, thats cool. I think i'm going to invite my priest. haha. well its a Sunday, maybe thats against the orthodox rules.

I hate sitting next to the person i dislike. But we were tight at the beginning of the year so our parking spots are next to eachother, our seats are next to eachother, i hear there are tons of pictures of us together in the senior video and the yearbook. GREAT! oh well, i will look at those pictures and remember better days of us. Too bad it all had to change. I will stop being emo now.

have a good night! i will!

i've been messing around with livejournal for about an hour and there are so many things to do!! i have already made two livejournal friends (thanks christa and amanda haha) and what fun we will have! I wonder how long i will keep up with this journal, i had one in like 10th grade but it got old after hmmm... i'd say 4 months. So i hope i keep this one up b/c i just know how everyone's interested in my exciting life and what i have to say about it. But really... life is about everyone else. Life is how what others do and say affect yourself. so really, by reading this, you are reading your life too. MUAHAHAAHAHAHA.

well, this is my first livejournal entry! woohoo! as i've been informed, EVERYONE has one and all the cool kids are doing it so i thought i'd join in on the fun.

Today our humanities class took a fieldtrip to Orlando to see Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream", what a lovely play. the actors were brilliant in it and one of them kind of hit on me and Gina afterwards haha. followed by a skitsofranic (sp?) guy circling the group. yick. Overall it was a nice day, we also went to the orlando art museam. my boyfriend claims i say mus-AM but i beg to differ. the only real sucky part of the day was when a certain someone's mother became immature and gave me dirty looks the whole day. i laugh at her stupidity. If only she knew what her daughter is REALLY like. But thats ok, i know my conscience is clear so i have no worries.

i suppose most people won't know what that's about. that's ok cause this is my livejournal not yours. so poop.

please people, since i am mew to this whole thing, i need some friends, write me back and i promise i will answer...i hope.

see you on the flip side!
