Wow.. it's been quite a while on this journal. Things have been a bit hectic. I finally got internet access in our room, which means no more having to squeeze the library into my schedule.

For the most part things are super.. spending so much time with Stephen is wonderful. We do bicker a little every now and then, but just over small things that are quickly forgotten. Falling asleep in his warmth, and waking up to his smile.. I couldn't be happier. Really. Our relationship has grown so much in the month and a half that we've lived here.. it's incredible to have someone you cherish by your side through anything and everything. Laughter.. tears.. anger.. boredom.. everything. Stephen is wonderful company. I truly, truly, TRULY love that boy with all my heart.

Last night was awesome. Stephen & I sat on the beach for a while, smoked a little, and just as we started walking along the beach the tide went in.. the odd thing was that it only went in in one little section.. so it was almost as if we were walking out into the ocean. It was amazing. I thought I was literally tripping for a moment.. here we are walking along the water then all of a sudden it's gone. I think we might just go back out there tonight.. if not then definitely tomorrow seeing as how Stephen has Sunday off.

*I* need a job. I've already had a couple but nothign seems to be working out. I want to get out of retail all together. I've been putting in resumes here and there for receptionist and administrative jobs. I think that something like that would be ideal for me. It's not my dream, but definitely something I could put up with.

Anyway.. I have plenty of time for more updating. I've got to get in the shower & wait for Stephen to get home so we can rearrange the furniture in our room. x_X

So.. most of the packing is done. I packed my life into six boxes and two bags. Ha. It's kind of funny to think of it like that. I'm worried that all of this stuff will never fit into our cars, so Stephen is coming down early tomorrow to help out and spend the day with me. Tomorrow will be my very last day at home. Kind of sad, really.. I'm going to miss my parents & friends so much, but the excitement of a new life and independence will keep me upbeat. My folks gave me an amazing going away present. I couldn't ask for better parents. ♥

This'll probably be my last entry for a while, since we won't have the internet just yet. When Stephen and I get our own place in about three or four months, I'll probably look into it. It's sad to leave everything behind, but I have so much to look foward to.. independence, romance, growing, learning, beauty.. everything.

Good conversation last night. ♥ That pay phone is by far, the best pay phone ever. Two & half hours of conversation with my sweetie for only $0.35. word. I stayed up until four chatting with Matt & Johnny online. I think I'm actually going to miss this place.. or at least the people. My mom is being so much cooler than I thought she'd be. She's being so supportive.. and that really means a lot to me since this is such a big step in my life.

So, only a week now. I should probably start packing. I'll probably just pack up a few little things and some clothes today. I think Stephen & I are going to head up to Hiawasee for a day or two, but that's kind of up in the air right now. Stephen's little nephew should be here today or tomorrow so if Hiawasee happens at all, it'll be Tuesday & Wednesday. I'd like to swim in a dirty Georgia lake one last time before all I see is ocean. The beach is gorgeous, but I prefer forests, streams, waterfalls, mountains, and lakes. I guess that's just the country girl in me.. I pretty much grew up at my grandmother's house in Hiawasee every weekend. The mountains are so calm and relaxing to me.

And so begins my day. I'm going to be helping my mom a lot today since she can't really do anything. :(  Lots of washing & cleaning. I'll start packing later. I might do some art later, too. For now, I need a shower. Badly.

I went to Walmart to develop some pictures today.  I spent the entire hour in the arts & crafts section. There are so many possiblities of things you can create. I must've picked up fifty things with the intent to buy them, only to talk myself out of it. Have to save money. I ended up with a fresh box of crayola markers and a pack of iron-on printer paper. I was so close to buying these cardboard picture frames and a set of paint. I suppose I'll stick to photoshop for now.

I helped my mom for most of the day, then Tiffany came over for a little while. I helped her make a myspace, we rode to Walmart -again, and sat in the drive way for a while talking to Wurm. Another uneventful day. I didn't get to talk to Stephen for very long tonight, either.. which kind of blows.

The closer Florida gets, the more I begin to realize how big of a step this actually is.

A couple of pictures from an older camera.. before Bonnaroo, I think.

Did some errands for my mom and slept all day (due to lots of cold medicine). I don't feel very good. :( I like that drowsy, disoriented feeling cold medicine always gives me. It makes my bed a thousand times more comfortable.

I can't wait to fall asleep in your arms. ♥
