stay down on yourself if you feel a glimpse of hope
What it feels like to be me in list form:
- I am only awake because I am on duty.
- I am on duty because my friend and fellow RA has been called to military duty down in LA. I hope he returns in one piece and with good spirits.
- If I was feeling any worse, then I would be most likely dead.
- The only person that can make me feel better decided to go to sleep before I could come back to say goodnight while I stepped out.
- I need to wake up at 8AM to make a road trip to dirty Jersey.
- I really need to stop complaining.
- Even though I feel like shit, I really did feel extremely happy a few hours ago while still at my internship.
- CMJ is right around the corner. I need to get out of this place. Seeing everyone in NYC over the course of the convention will hopefully make me feel better.
- I am going to set up an appointment with my doctor back home to get some meds...as Marc Bianchi once said "I figured out the key to short term success...just tell everyone that you're clinically depressed."
- Speaking of Mr. Bianchi, one of the biggest opportunities thus far at college as happened for me: FMQB wants me to write a weekly column about my prediction of what will do well in college radio and then do well in commercial radio. This is a breakthrough for both forms of radio and of course me. Her Space Holiday will be my very first piece to write on.
- It has been decided that Cabrini is no doubt the cause of my depression and anxiety. I think this means that I will go on being miserable for the next year and a half.
- Note: the only way to cover up how I feel is of course to smile. Smile as I talk to students who don't give a shit what I'm talking about. Smile as I tell kids about music they don't care about. Smile as I argue with my parents as they prove once again to not care about me.
- I'm thinking about starting smoking again. I know it's bad for me. I know it's a waste of money. But seriously with all the aggravation right now, I think it's the best form of relief.
- My friends want to meet my significant other during CMJ. Although I've told him on repeat times to come up for the weekend of CMJ, he won't come even though I've tried to stress how important it is to me.
- I get to eat Surf Taco with Panda tomorrow which is the biggest reason why I'm getting up at the crack ass of dawn to drive to the state I hate the most.
- It better be fucking sunny tomorrow because my ass is going to be tanning by Panda's poolside.

Stuck in a Tight Spot
After being in intense training for the past week or so, this all-of-a-sudden free time has made me feel feel kind of weird. I'm definitely ready to get this school year started and get all the kids back.
I miss Amanda. I miss our weekly dance party (aka radio show) I miss promising myself every morning that I will go to the gym after dinner and never making it there. I miss late-night Wingers. I miss everything and everyone, which is why I want the next few days to whiz by so I can get back on top of things.
I'm listening to Clor right now and it's so addictingly good. I know I already gushed about it before, but I really can't help it. AND I finally got the new Super Furry Animals full-length into the station. It's epic. Those are the only words to describe it...I'm pretty much afraid to try and describe it, for making it seem less of an amazing piece of work than it really is.
AND I want my sir to come home. I miss him terribly and I know he's not having the best time of his life down in Alabama. I want him back in PA so we can lay around and be lazy, not have him drifting around the Mississippi River taking samples of things.
Btw, CMJ schedule of performers is up. Everyone that is going this year needs to drop me a line of what shows/parties/panels they will be at so we can all eventually meet up.

be a part of something big
RA training = busiest I've been in years.
My apologies to unreturned phone calls, lack of charting and me not being a good friend.
M.I.A. Xtine = only for a few more days and then I'll be back in full force. Seriously.

just another number
I can't stop gushing about my apartment and how much better it is to wake up and be able to turn the lights on and sip coffee and just lay around and be fat without worrying about waking someone else up. Yayayay!
Tonight I will have my first overnight visitor spend the night! Unfortunately he gets to sleep on my floor since I have moved all the fans into my bedroom and it's too deathly hot to sleep in another bedroom or living room.
I'm terribly jealous of everyone that went to TC's Prom this weekend while I was busy being a busy-bee mover. I miss all of my far-away friends that live in those wonderful cities that I never get to see. Luckily for me, CMJ is just around the bend and then hopefully I'll be happy once more.
CMJ Round 2 = xtine hopefully not repeating any silly mistakes from last year.
For examples:
1) coming home with new sir, just a tad bit older
2) being "that girl"
3) attending too many parties, not enough shows and not one single panel
4) spending the night at random hotels/ apartments...not a good idea
I believe arrangements are being made for me to stay with my favorite music snob...that means I will get to see him (right before I pass out every night and when I roll over the next morning)
