story time

so while i was reminiscing tonight about fun stories i decided that I don't want to forget these stories so, i'm going to blog them... for the next a lil bit.... my stories are very random and probably better heard in person but just read it and think of my voice, in all it's great hickness, telling the stories...... the first one takes me back to freshman year of college.....

So I had a crush, I'll admit it, I was a new lil freshman, he was a tremendously tall freshman with the nickname "Timber". We had a mutual friend and we hung out some. It never was anything serious but one night after a lil trip to walmart that we shared he came up to my room and we hung out (innocent fun) he wasn't there long, just checked out my dorm for like 20 minutes and had to leave to do some homework..... nothing big, it was a good night.

Later on that night after he was back in his room we were talking online... he asked me if i was sitting at my desk and i said yes, why do you ask? he said take a look to your immediate right, i slowly and timidly turned my head only to see my dry erase board with big black letters that said "Lauren loves Timber!"

I immediately recognized the hand writing and turned red and screamed, "JESSICA HEAD!!!!" she came in thinking there was a fire or something and then realized what I was looking at and died laughing... I was so mad, so embarassed. I frantically typed to timber telling him that I was not a freak and that my roommate had done it thinking it was funny and never thinking he would actually see it and I babbled on and on apologizing and so distraught over the incident.... he was fine, thought it was hillarious, it wasn't until a few weeks later that i found it funny...

but now looking back on it, that moment in B3 dorm, freshman year, seems so innocent and fun. Oh to be a freshman again, oh to be so scared of college and having a fun innocent crush with no drama. I feel like life has become so much more complicated now. Go to bed early instead of late night walmart trips for no reason, looking for jobs instead of planning fun summer trips. college should be 5 years, and if it was 5 years I would probably wish it was 6, so I guess you can't stop the next stage of life, it's gonna come wether you like it or not, so i'm gonna embrace it, hopefully i'll have to open my arms real wide for this one, hopefully it will be just as great or even better than college.

maybe.
