I keep trying to post more often, but it doesn't seem to be working very well. Well, I'm pretty much over my strep throat, and no longer being contagious I am going to the Arundel Mills mall tomorrow. Ken now works there, at Foreign Cinema again. His job at the Columbia Mall with security just wasn't worth what he was being paid, so, he's getting paid better as a manager at Foreign Cinema. AND I get to see him there without worying about getting him in trouble. So all is well. 
Christmas is in less than a week, and I have started my gift shopping. I have to get more wrapping paper an a few more gifts. I'm going shopping with Doug on Saturday. Yeah, he's back for Christmas.
I've registered for Spring classes, and 3 of my four professors have said that they will give me the final exams before I leave on May 5. The 5th professor is unknown atm. My cooking class is unstaffed at the time...and yes, I'm taking a cooking class...and I will be working with knives!   :D Other than that, I'm taking a Criminology 101, Statistics (I MUST be insane), and History 122. Should be good. And a winter course, English 207: Ethics in Literature.
Well, thats about all I've got to say. later.

Okay, so it’s time for a real post. Well, a lot has happened. Let’s start with:

1. Relationship status: Spencer and I are no longer together. It’s been that way for a while, but when it first happened we both got fifty million questions about it all. It was a mutual breakup, that’s something that must be very clear and understood, and we are still close friends. We were both having feelings for other people, and those other people returned those feelings. We decided that it would be better for us to break up and be with those other people than to suppress those feelings. Now he’s with someone who can’t be name yet, even though pretty much everyone already knows, lol. And I’m with Ken. All sides are happy. ^_^

2. You’ll kill me for this one: Some people already know about this. If not, then you probably don’t have a Facebook or just don’t check it often. I’m joining the Army National Guard. I’m going to MEPs on Wednesday, well its Tuesday evening and staying overnight, because MEPs starts at the ungodly hour of 0500. So to make sure we are there on time we stay at a hotel near Ft. Meade and all go together. I’m not making this choice for anyone else, and it’s not on an impulse. I’ve been looking at the military for years, since sophomore year actually, with the only question being which branch to join. After a whit load of research and talking to recruiters and stuff, I’ve finally decided. And I really could do ANYTHING I wanted in the Army, because I got a 95 on my ASVAB (95^th percentile actually), So really I could choose a career that’s safe, out of the way, and much higher up on a pay scale. As it is I may get better benefits and stuff because my ASVAB was so high. But I wanted to do something combat related, no such luck there. As a female, I’m not allowed to take any really combat related jobs. I can, however, be an MP (military police). I had looked at it even before it was suggested to me, and the suggestion just solidified that choice for me. So as of Wednesday, November 19 2008, I will be Private Moloney, future MP in the US Army National Guard.  Until I go to Basic in the summer, I will attend drill at the 581^st, which is for people who are waiting to go to Basic. It will teach me a few things to get me ready for basic and will get me into shape for it too. It’s once a month and the first one is actually the weekend following my enlistment. Even after Basic I will still be in the area, living at home, and stationed at the Catonsville Armory. But Basic and AIT will be about 5 months long and will be in Missouri. I’m actually really looking forward to everything, but I really need to get myself into shape before I ship. And yes, my mother knows. When I told her there was a lot of yelling, and crying, and yelling, and crying, and trying to convince me not to join it. She even tried to forbid me from doing it, but I told he square on that there is nothing she can do to stop me.

3. Not much else is really going on: I mean, there was a lot going on with the relationship status and with the Army, but that’s pretty much it. Oh, well, Doug is leaving for Basic this coming Tuesday. If luck is with me, then I’ll see him at the hotel before he leave, since we’ll both be there that Tuesday. Otherwise, his going away party is tomorrow, and it should be fun. I’m gonna miss him while he’s gone, but at least there are letters. Also, Blake cam home a short time ago from Basic. He’s different, but not too much. He’s obviously more confident and he’s much better with people now. I don’t feel on edge talking to him anymore, like I did before he went to basic. He’s very amusing and he can actually be a good friend. But he’s going to Virginia, to his post this coming week I believe. But he’ll be around occasionally I’m sure. Spencer is thinking about joining the Navy or the Marines. He is going to get his knee evaluated to see if it’s okay for military service this week, and then he’ll make a decision. It’s funny, I guess I’m more hypocritical than I thought; I’m all excited about my future with the Army, but I wish that my friends would just stay away from it. Well, at least Doug will be a chef, and therefore relatively safe. Even if he gets shipped anywhere, he’ll always be in the green zone.

Well, I think that entry was sufficiently long. Lol. Later guys! <3

I just felt the need to put some stuff down in writing. I'm not going to tell anyone who they're about, but if you wanna talk to me about any of it, feel free to message me. Some of the people included will never read this anyway. Love you guys!!!

Confessions:

You’re one of my best friends, and I hope that never changes. Hell, you’re the one who will probably be my maid of honor. I just hope you won’t hate me for what I’m going for at the moment. I'm sorry, but its something I want to do.

 You piss me off to no end, but you also make me smile. But I’m not entirely sure that I can trust you lately. You just keep hiding so much stuff and lying to me about a bunch of other stuff. So, what’s going on with you?

I’ve gotten jealous of you in the past, but I am no longer jealous. I hope never to be jealous of you again. I love you, you’re a great friend, and I’m sorry I was ever jealous of you. And I’m really happy for you, it’s about time you had a good guy.

 You’ve been a great friend since the beginning of high school. I know you won’t, because you’re a great guy, but if you break her heart I’ll break your jaw. K? 

I haven’t really known you very long, but you’ve already been a great friend. Thanks for helping me out with where I’m currently going, and for helping my friends out on the same page there. And yes, I know it’s cute.

 In high school I thought you were just like everyone else with your popularity (on a high horse, inflated ego, etc). But now that I’ve gotten to actually know you a bit, I realize that I was horribly wrong. You’re awesome! Sorry I thought so poorly of you before.

 I never knew you in high school, but I did know your brother…I like you better. Also, I want you to do what makes you happy, but I’m also hoping that you won’t be able to due to restrictions; I feel horrible about thinking that way, but you should know it’s because you’re my friend.

 I think you jumped into it a little too quickly, but I’m glad you’ve found something to make you happy and a way to make it to the career you wanted. I’m gonna miss ya while you’re away.

I probably won’t be there for as long as I’d thought, if I’m there at all. You’ll hate my reason for it, but I hope you’ll understand it in time. You’ve been a great friend through high school and now, and I’m hoping that won’t change.
 

 Well, lets see. Spencer is now 21, and drinking less than he did the week before his birthday. Also, I've had my first taste of Baily's Irish Cream. Pretty good stuff actually. 

Well, I'm kinda becomeing more confident and starting to actually have fun. Spencer's party was great. Pool party, then we all inda conregated back at Spencer's afterward We were there until midnight. My mom only let me stay that late because of the storms that night (I liked those storms...a lot). In that time, Spencer had 0 drinks, I had none because I had to drive later, Jessie discovered that she does like Guiness, and Nick downed 2 beers. Along with that, Nick enjoyed himself, with girls constantly on his lap. 2 friends of mine seemed to be getting along very well at the party as well (anyone who was at the party knows full well who I'm talking about); they were so cute, floating together on the raft on the other end of the pool. But, we are trying to get them together. And we have all decided that parties like that are going to be thrown at random intervals throughout the year, just because they are so much fun!

I might be bruised next week, if my mom lets me go paintballing/airsifting with Nick. So please no poking me next week.

Jessie, Chuck said that he is going to call Britany when he can. He's really busy lately. 

I am craving chips and salsa, but I'm still not allowed to eat it until September. At least those damn wisdom teeth are out. On the surgical note: Melissa is going to talk to her surgeon tomorrow (well, today at this point) about how and when the operation will be done. And related to Melissa: Doug is almost guarenteed the job at Liftetime Fitness that he applied for. His first interview went well, and he is having an interview with the regional manager either today or friday. 

Anyway. I'm off to bed. I don't have class today, but my eyes are really tired.
