Ahh. I guess that would be true of most universities. Mine is like a giant high school. Craaazy.

I can't say that about my university...

mind you even my high school wasn't like a typical high school... we didn't have cliques or any of that jazz... I guess I just end up lucky and go to the good schools :roll:
I can't wait until the day schools are over-funded and the military is forced to hold bake sales to buy planes.

I was dating Cain for a year already, but it was before we got engaged or anything.
I revealed a huge secret to Cain about my father...and thankfully, he still loved me.
I moved out of my house with my parents and got my own apartment before my birthday (December 17).

Hmm a year ago I was...

Starting to realize how much I was gonna miss high school (last year was my senior year)

Working my tail off to get into Alabama U (in vain, I might add). But I ended up t a local college, having quite a lot of fun (with a full-paid scholarship)

I hadn't even met one of my current bestfriends yet, so I didn't see that coming.

Looking back, I never thought I'd be where I am right now, but for some reason I'm pretty happy where I am now.

I likey this thrad.
"When looking up there, I just felt whole, like I belonged. Like one day I too would shine my most brilliant. Sitting there also made me think about sitting through services at my little country church back home. About that never-changing congregation of the same sixty-seven people and everyone has known you since before you were born. Now, out here in the real world, everything just seemed more vivid than when I used to sit in that little pew. That pew that was now so, so far away from where I was. I feared I had somehow left God behind there, too. I feared he was somehow just sitting there, saving my seat on the fifth pew from the front row, just waiting on me to come back. I left so quickly, I worried that he may not have noticed I was gone. And, now, I’m just too far away to find. So he’s just sitting there, patiently waiting on me to come back. I closed my eyes and prayed a moment. I hoped more than anything that he could still hear me." -an excerpt from my novella, A Sea of Fallen Leaves.

A year ago, on a Monday morning, I was dreading my worst final ever (organic chemistry).

I had been a fan of HomestarRunner.com for about two weeks.

Bethany introduced me to Mason Jennings' music.

a year ago today -- i'd have probably sat home all day, with a then-recently torn up knee, laughing at my parents, because they had to wait on me hand and foot.

today -- sat in my bed all day, with a fixed knee, recovering from recent surgery, laughing at my parents because they have to wait on me, hand and foot. What's new is that i get a little bell beside my bed to call for my parents.

muahahahahaha. :evil:

A year ago today I met the hottest guy I had ever seen, developed a huge crush on him and sent him an email.

Did I say this already? Damn, I'm bitter.

This time last year I was in love with a horrible person. In fact, at this time, I was probably sleeping with her in her bed. Fuck man, I'm lonely.

Time to go write a song about it. :lol:
I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.

a year ago today i went to applebees with my friends. afterwards we all drove to jq's dad's house, which turned out to be a mansion. we all went in jq's brother's room, joked around as usual, and then piled up on his bed and lay there thinking about what we would all be doing this year. kb braided everyones hair and i was laughing so hard that i had to keep getting a tissue to wipe my eyes.

out of the four other people there that night, i'm still friends with two of them.

and jq's little brother was very pleased to find five senior girls in his bed.
