Back Home... It's such a strange time being back home.
I did such a horrible job keeping track of my trip on this online thing. I haven't been doing that good at all. On my hand-written journal I recorded as much as I can abotu the trip, the rest is in my head and I won't forget any of it.
It's strange though, when you're gone for three and a half months and you come back.
People look at you and say, wow, you've changed, your a different person now. And I am, I am a different person than when I left. It's funny.
I told myself when I left home that I wanted to come back a more outgoing person.
While I was abroad. I became that person without really knowing, if that makes sense. I mean I talked more, I answered more questions in class. I really branched out and met a variety of people. Some that I still keep in contact with. It's fantatstic!
It's sad at the same time. Some of those who are called my closet friends I'm not even that close to anymore.
I've started to lose some of those important common grounds and my relationships with some of the people at home have changed.
It makes me sad to see this. I'm not sure if I will keep all my friends. I know that I will keep some of them but not all of them. I have a feeling. I hope I'm wrong though, I really do. I guess the only thing I can do is talk to them and see what happens.
It's just a really sad situation.
But no matter what happens this trip was one of the greatest things that I have ever done. It was truly somethign I needed. I have finally started to see myself in a new light, I'm more confident and more outgoing. It's fantastic! I'm proud of myself for all that I've completed.
Hopefully I'll be able to not only gain friends from this but I will be able to keep all of those friends close to me as well.
We'll just have to see what happens!
I'll try to write more and keep top on things.
*sigh* I hope this is all sorted out!
Oh well!
Cheers!

Almost August.... Wow!
The time has really flow by this summer. It's just about August and as anyone else I am not looking forward to school.
Oh, wait, yes I am. Because I will be completing my study abroad program at a host school and I am very excited to be partaking on such a journey; though, to be honest I still need to do some preperation.
Oh well, still got a months time for that, I suppose.
Well cheers mates!

♥Thee Adventure Sorry mates,
I can't get the slide show generator.
But I have this real mini mini video of one of the little rapids that I saw today. It's gorgeous! The sound is not perfect but it's amazing ;)
Enjoy!
I'll put some other pictures up too... like a few highlights.
Cheers!
~ Erin
PS: I had to convert the video file so its a bit distorted, I apologize. In its orginal form and file type it's perfectly clear but the generator would not accept its orginal file type.

Thee Adventure ! ;) My brother invited me to go out and do some field work with him. So after working out, we left the gym at 9:15am and headed off for an adventure in search of the natural sites, where my brother is conducting research for his enviornmental studies/engineering internship (yeah, the kid is a genius!).
What we found, amazing sites, while we had too much of a good time.
Here's a slide show of pictures I took as we took our day adventure from around 9 to 4.
Enjoy!
Cheers!

Sorry mates, I'm having a problem with the picture slideshow. I'll see if I can make it work with another website generator.
Since the weather is so crazy from where I. I am going to add a slideshow of the beautiful April Winter Scenes. No lie, these shots were taken in April, actually starting for yesterday. I'll be taking more photos today though throughout the day.
Cheers!
*PS: It's actually stopped snowing this morning, so I have to wait to take more cool photos. Bear with these shots for now. Thanx.
*PSS: Having some difficulty with the animation schemes will add laterz! sorry

Everday is Exactly the Same I guess I'm just in an emo mood over this situation.
By the way, I don't think NIN is emo. But I would like that thank Trent Reznor for this song.
I guess I'm just confused and at a loss at this whole thing. When someone you love is angry at you and you did nothing wrong, it hurts. I'm so used to talking to my friend and now, all of sudden, communication has been shut off.
It was certainly akward that my philosphy teacher asked me if my friend and I were fighting. I must have been lying through my teeth when I smiled and answered "no." I have a feeling that he knows that I was lying.
Some may suggest to me that I should try speaking first, but then, they truly don't know my friend.
I've known my friend for almost six years now and so I know that it's best to say nothing at all. I have to wait to she is willing to speak.
Besides, I don't know what say.
Apologizing, just doesn't seem appropriate to me. Especially when I have done nothing wrong.
Right now, I suppose even as early as it is in the week, that I am looking forward to Friday, when I will be able to go home and see my family.
Oh well, mes amies!
Well cheers to Friday, then!
And to you Mr. Reznor as well! :)

Another Sentimental Argument.... I never liked getting into arguments with friends. It always leaves that akward form of silence and afterwards you feel it necessary to walk away.
But I suppose, as I have now just seen that they will occur.
The worst part about arguments with friends,is the stage that I am at now.
We just finished arguing an hour or two ago and, I walked away to go do some studying (something I had preplanned already to do before we got into the argument). While the air might have been cleared in the sense that we both voiced our opinions, I'm unsure if we are supposed to be not speaking: note that I say "supposed to." I feel that once you said what you have to say, give it a little time and unless it's very serious, then forget it and keep going.
Or at least that's what I believe.
I hate akwardness and I definently hate this feeling like I can't even talk to my friend.
I guess I have two options:
1.) Ignore or 2.) Be ignored.
I suppose I shall have to try and talk and be ignored rather than ignore. I don't like the idea of ignoring someone especially over something so petty as this.
Well cheers to that plan!

Well, it’s a brand new semester and I'm already ready to graduate. Just four to go after this one and I am done with the whole undergrad affair, then I get to move on to graduate school and hopefully find a good job afterward.
Malheuresement, I don't know what I am majoring in still and i have to declare major by the Spring semester.
And it is spring so, I have a bit of a problem then.
On to another problem, I was accepted into the study abroad program but my parents are having second thoughts about it. I'm hoping I can convince them that I should be okay and that the experience will be incredible for me.
They have a multitude of questions as most parents do so I have to gather more information for them, hopefully I they will allow me the opportunity!
Pray for that friends!
Cheers!

I really miss my dreams now which at least offer some relief in times like this.
Not much too say I suppose, except I need to get out.
Well near soon to come...
Cheers to better times! Today is Thursday, December 14, 2006 The time 02:56 p.m.
~ I'm P.O.~ I'm sitting here watch Hitch with Laura and I love this movie it's such good laugh. Very well done and must I add that Will Smith is an incredibly fantastic looking and amazing actor!
Well I'm not quite "pissed off" as the subject off my entry would suggest. What I really am is finished finished with P.O. (or Political Science) finals and I am quite happy.
Well that's all for now.
Tah-tah, i miei amici!
Cheers!

un peu de plus... Never lie, steal, cheat, or drink. But if you must lie, lie in the arms of the one you love. If you must steal, steal away from bad company. If you must cheat, cheat death. And if you must drink, drink in the moments that take your breath away Today is Wednesday, 13, 2006 The time 012:14 a.m.
AnXieTy is KiLlEr So I turned my study abroad program application in today.
However, instead of feeling excited I feel quite nervous. My friend's boyfriend has already been excepted into the program and although my grades are excellent I do feel a bit intimidated. I'm not quite sure where my feelings have come from but I am nervous to the point where I wish I knew the status of my application.
It should take about a week to recieve a response from my school but even then, a week is too long. Tell me now!
God be with me I as I am scared to death.
Well cheers, mes amies!

~ J'aime Francais, mais mon prof est horrible... Dommage! C'est la vie! ~ What a relief!
I am finally finished with my horrific semester of French and I cannot express all of my happiness!
But the nightmare is over and I will continue my studies of French elsewhere with someone else.
Wow....
I really don't know what to do with myself now, since I have spent the whole semester dredding French.
I guess I'll fais un séjour for a bit....
Well cheers to that!

~Bienevenu, le moi!~ Truly it has been awhile.
It's been two years or such.
I'm already a sophmore in college and in a few days I will be finishing my fall semester.
Oi!
It's been such a while.
Nothing really much to say except that.
Holiday in 5 days!
Cheers to that!
