my livejournal pages:
{ about me}

{ the past few years}
{ what i want to remember}
my personal pages:

{ webshots}
a little about myself:
hi, i'm lauren. i'm 17 years old, i don't lie about my age. i'll be 18 on September 11, and i can't wait. i'm one of those people who never gets to do anything special, but i'd love to. i live in Aston, Pennsylvania, probably the most uneventful and therefore unheard of town. i drive a pink car, 'cause i feel like it. i go to a private school that costs more than some colleges, Ursuline Academy, and i'll be a Senior there next year. i'm far from rich and happy i grew up that way. i guess you could say my life isn't all that boring. at least, a lot of people seem to think it's not. most of the people who are reading this right now are people that shouldn't be reading it at all. but it's ok, because i can live with that.
rules:
i'm jk-ing with you. who puts rules in their journal? i hate when people do that. you don't have to comment to be added, i'll add anyone. most entries are public anyway. anonymous comments are screened, thanks to the less mature of my fans.
stuff that keeps me occupied:
music. listening to it, dancing to it, singing to it. i don't like one particular type, i like it all. minus country. i've been dancing for about 12 years, hip hop happens to be my favorite genre. which is weird because i'm not really into that whole scene. but i love it, and i'm not about to quit. acting is great too, and who knows, i might pursue it.
stuff that i hate. hate. :
- pEoPlE wH0 tYpE lYk dIs. uu RiLlY piSs mE 0fF. p.s.- did you guys know that "uu" instead of "you" is the new cool thing? i was so blissfully unaware...
- people who can't spell. please learn to spell.
- people who think they're better than everyone. you're not.
- people who are obsessed with meeting other people online. newflash: that's not a real relationship.
- guys who like little girls.
- people who get everything handed to them
- people who say they're really hot, even if they are.
- those scene kids who critique everybody like they're actually good looking enough to do so.
- clowns, dolls, puppets; spiders; dead fish; the color orange; soda; hamburgers, tacos, and other assorted beef products; sweat; when dogs lick my feet; smelly boys; etc.

Is amazing.
I love my school, I love the people in it, I love college life.
Delaware is perfect for me, I couldn't imagine being anywhere else. Fall semester was awesome, it had its ups and downs but for the most part I had some of the best times over the semester. Now I'm in winter session, which is only 5 weeks, and its optional and happens between fall and spring semester. But I love it! Not many freshmen take it, so it's just me and my friend Heather on our floor. I've become extremely good friends with my boys in Kappa Sigma, and I'm there about 3 or 4 times a week. They are hilarious. They are my winter session entertainment. My pictures on Facebook can prove that. I love being single, the boys are fun, but sometimes I want a boyfriend. But then I know I wouldn't like not being single. Can't there be the best of both worlds? Classes are good, I'm keeping up with everything, and spring classes should be fun. And I'm rushing in the spring, I can't wait for that. I've hung out with the guys in Kappa Sig so much and gone to their date parties and it really made me love greek life. So I'm pumped to start that. I can't wait til next year. Heather and I got a townhouse with our friends Amanda, Megan, and Darrah, and it's amazing. Brand new, we all get our own bedrooms, and the boys might life close by. I seriously can't wait. I need to get out of the dorms. I mean my room here is amazing since it's now a double room with just one person in it (huge!), but I'm tired of freshmen. I've always hung with older people here, and I want to keep it that way. Except for Heather and Dria.







 Heather and Dria <33

University of Delaware class of 2010

| it's been a thousand months |
[ Mar 19th, 2006 @ 1:20pm] |
I decided to check this thing out of nowhere and no one writes anymore. So I'll write.
let's see, last night I went to Iceworks with the girls to skate for a while. I remember when that place used to be my home, it's so different now. They changed a lot of things and none of the old people work there anymore, it's just not as fun as it used to be. but it was fun skating and catching up on everything with the Sun Valley girls. I don't see them enough anymore. Jak, Chrisi, and Darc are going to Tampa in the fall. it would be amazing to go there! I was going to apply... I did halfway... and then I realized I would never be able to pay for it because the school is expensive plus transportation costs. now they just keep sending me a ridiculous amount of letters and emails reminding me that I am "missing parts of my application components". haha. but it would be amazing to go there. Florida! endless summer! how lovely. but as many pros as there are, there are cons too. I love University of Delaware, I want to be somewhere where I'm comfortable in the environment... and I already know my way around... and I know so many people there, especially older kids who can help me out. Plus there's Ryan now, and no one can say for sure what will happen with relationships but you can't just assume that they're going to end in 5 months and pack up and leave for Florida. It would be nice to go to school with him. He's the kind of guy that will say "You go party with your friends and I'll be with mine" and we know each other's friends so sometimes we'll go to parties together. But I know he won't be the type that will make me stay with him 24/7, and I don't want that. It's so important to meet as many friends as you can Freshman year, and I want to do that as much as possible. It's so nice having a boyfriend that's so completely different than what you've had before. Someone who will let you do your own thing, and you let him do his, and there's so much less to fight over. You trust each other, and it's nice. =) I think I trust him more than he trusts me though. for good reason, since I didn't stick around long last time. but I'm different now! I'm not that stupid anymore. =)
so Delaware would be very nice. Old friends there, new friends there. Friends with cars, that will drive me home to do laundry. haha.
so now, all there is to do is wait. wait wait wait damn you Delaware admissions. speed up the process.
p.s.- sam is on my last nerve.
I have a boyfriend.
That's not a valid reason to "never talk ever again EVER!"
hahaha. ::rolls eyes::

so I haven't written in this thing since what... June? crazy. so much has happened since then, I couldn't even begin to tell it all. anyway, life is good right now, by my standards. + school is going ok + senior year is amazing and i love everyone right now <3 + my dear antonio keeps me occupied, and you know i love the whole "new relationship" thing + i have (enough) money + dance is going great
- college app stress. the only one i sent so far is penn state since it's rolling, and it's taking forever for a response. i still need to finish delaware, lehigh, nyu, and perhaps syracuse and boston by...the 15th. ohhhh god. - my back hurts so bad.
anyhoo, things are good. i guess you could say that anthony and i are... "dating"? i don't know, it's weird. because i've never been with anyone that actually wanted to go OUT like...a date. haha. who has a car and money. it's quite nice. i don't have to pay for everything.
speaking of... oooooh samuel, my samuel. loves to make things difficult in my life. i am refraining from communicating with the boy, period. the whole "wahwahwah i care so much wahwah i was going to ask you out wahwah i want you to be my girlfriend i talked to my family" bullshit is just... getting to me. so i need to just ignore it i think.
ok who cares. a few of my favorite homecoming pics:
 <3 the girls
 i love you ladies
 if only my head was cut off in this one. antonio y yo.
 about how we didn't drink before the dance...seriously.
well if you want to see the rest, go ahead: http://community.webshots.com/album/483156633HLipsO
alright i'm going to bed, i probably won't write in this for another 500 years. work, school, and dance... way too time consuming. why did i take 4 APs senior year?
byebye.

i would like to say the following things about summer:
britney spears makes it all worth while meeting new people is the greatest feeling sitting on the beach with absolutely nowhere to be is very nice knowing girls are morons for not realizing what their boyfriends are really doing is amusing my tan was insane a week ago and it's starting to fade already =( getting back in shape for dance will feel wonderful
i figure i will give parkside a second chance, darcy said their competition team will be tryouts only this year so i guess it might end up being really good. i'll go tryout and see whether or not i hate it. if i do, back to concord. pretty easy. parkside at least feels familiar though. i went there for, what, 7 years.
anyway, i'm heading over darcy's to help her ::cough:: rearrange things. complete with tanning breaks because it's nice out. and THEN we are going to nuss's because i say so, and it's going to be amazing.
the end.
oh, quote of the week:
"stee-VEN!!!" -laguna beach... and stacey.

jakki and i went to visit poor darcy today. she's doing lovely. we sat around and talked about everything that's been going on lately. it was nice, and very funny at times. we have some stuff planned out to do soon, including hanging out with some new people for me, hitting shampoo a few times, and jak and darc coming to the beach with me for a while. i'm excited, it should be nice. jakki and i are also planning to go to Costa Rica for winter break this year. then jak darc and a bunch of other people want to go to Cancun for Senior Week. so this year should be amazing and eventful.
i'm excited about summer again =)

"my guy"
phase one // APPEARANCE -
about how tall would he be - absolutely must be as tall or taller than me. shoe size - who cares skinny or fat - built buff or normal - buff but not fitness-competitor-can-flex-their-boobs buff six pack - is lovely hairstyle - longish color hair - i usually stay away from blonds but it depends on the guy eye color - blue dark tan or light skin - tan glasses or contacts - again, who cares. piercings - depends on the guy braces or no braces - nahthanks scars - yeah, i like them. eyebrows - um no, i prefer my men eyebrowless. what the hell. chest hair - N.O. do you really care what he looks like - i'm not going to lie. absolutely. that's what attracts me to them. the rest comes later.
phase two // PERSONALITY -
nice or mean - mean would he be caring - no, i like the ones who don't give a shit about me. what kind of survey is this? sensitive type or kinky type- that's two totally different things. sensitive is feelings, kinky is sex. jealous type - yes flirty - with me ONLY. with anyone else, i'll have to hurt them. protective - definitely funny or serious - both at the right times outgoing or shy - outgoing lazy - not really sarcastic or sincere - sarcastic would he swear - sure, who cares. music - whatever. just not country, i wouldn't be able to live with that.
phase three // SOCIAL ; SCHOOL
does he have a lot of gf's - absolutely not. would he hang out with you or his friends - both would he hang out with your friends - yes party or stay home - party with me there, not leave me and go party, nah mean? would he have a lot of friends - sure smart or stupid - has to be at least slightly dumber than me. i'm being completely serious. would he put his friends before you - he should. but he shouldn't let me know he's doing that ;) would he drink - sure as long as he's an uncontrollable drunk who cheats on me. would he smoke - doesn't matter would he do drugs - no would he tell you he loves you - if he means it would he act different around his friends - better not.
phase four // AROUND YOU
hold hands - yes. kiss you - no, we would abstain from kissing? hug you from behind - definitely would he call you "hunny,sweety,baby" - yes would he walk you to your door - yes would he try to make you feel better when you guys are fighting - probably not. would he surprise you - that would be nice remember your anniversary - i wish would he lay under the stars with you - yes watch the sunrise with you - mmhmm write love letters - i guess? for something special maybe. write poems about you - if he wants. as long as he's not too much of an emo kid =/
k that was worthless. i'm going to go shower and bug the shit out of kyle until we go out.

hey too late for anyone that went against my piercing idea ;)
I did it Thursday night. amazing! I love it. my camera isn't in yet so I'll post pictures soon.
got it done at Northern Lights since my cousin got his tattoos there. guy was awesome, really informative. got a barbell, since supposedly the rings aren't really good for you and the place won't even pierce you with them. which is fine since I like the barbells. it's better than I even expected. he pierced high up since my belly button is so tiny. so it's cool, looks like my stomach is pierced and the end wound up in my belly button. haha. didn't hurt, hasn't hurt yet. gotta love it =) I swear, pictures soon.
I'm happy! now I think I'm going out... or I'll go bug Kyle or something.

| belly button piercing =D |
[ Jun 27th, 2005 @ 9:17pm] |
ok so I think I'll go get my belly button pierced sometime in the next couple weeks. I'm excited because I need a change after dealing with all of this ::insert profane language here:: yeah I'm not allowed to curse anymore because I'll be reported by the LiveJournal Police ::rolls eyes::
anyway... the problem is, I don't even know if my belly button would work with a piercing. it's so tiny. it doesn't look like normal ones. =(
 see?
so my questions to anyone who still visits livejournal:
will it work on me? where did you/your friends get it done? will it matter if I go in the ocean after getting it done, since I'll be at the beach a lot this summer?
someone answer please, thanks.

You know what? I am really angry right now. I am REALLY angry. And I promised myself that I would not let you get to me but guess what- you won. You've gotten to me and I am angry. I'm angry that this journal is no longer mine. I can't write anything personal in it anymore. I can't rant, I can't let things out, I can't do anything. I would love to write 5 pages right now on how MORONIC people are and how the world's IQ is slowly lowering itself to prehistoric standards, but oh wait I can't do that because I MIGHT just be arrested for half-mentioning a name. This is insane! What has the world come to? My life is no longer my life, other people have to butcher it and use it to their own advantage to aid them in their highly malicious intentions! I hate you! You're screwing with me and I am defenseless because I run the risk of being at the mercy of your anal misplaced insanity! Look at yourself! Look at what you're doing, what you're saying! Do you see how STUPID you look? No. No no no no no. Oh god I could write for hours. Why do I get slammed for every word that comes out of my mouth. Because I'm intelligent? Because I can string a sentence together? Because my comprehensible strung-together sentences can be evidence to get someone in trouble? Oops, my bad. I OBVIOUSLY deserve a life of never-ending unhappiness. Man, I simply suck.
One day, when I can write whatever I want and it is completely public, I'm going to write about this. And I'm going to go off on you and everyone in the world will say "Wow, why did Lauren have to deal with that person?". And yes, they will know my name and know my face because I'm going to be famous for something, and people are going to love me. And hate me. And either way I will be so damn happy because I will be BETTER than you. Which is pretty obvious anyway.
And when I write this and everyone reads it they will gossip about it in cafes and over the phone and they'll say "Why didn't these idiots listen to Lauren? Why didn't they admit they were wrong?" and then they'll laugh and wonder why people could be so ignorant and closed-minded. Because that's what you are, and that's what you'll remain to be. And I will continue to be angry, and rant in my mind, and laugh about it with my friends and family. And I'll write it all down for myself to remember because one day it will make a DAMN good story and I'll be a DAMN good writer and you'll wonder why you ever chose to screw with me.
And I am done my rant. My nameless, pointless-to-outsiders rant. But I understand and so will the people that I trust and that's all that matters to me right now. And soon, I am going to be so happy and forget all the trouble that you caused. But I will never forget you and what you did to me and what you did to everyone else who's life you placed a negative impact on.
Frankly, I loathe you, and I am not afraid of hiding it. Because I'm not afraid of you.
Get out of my life.
Love, Lauren

I bought a camera. Yes I bought a camera. My money, mine. My goal was to stay under $300 and I just made it with this one. I did tons of research, went to the store and played with it, and now it is my baby. I ordered it last night and I am anxiously awaiting its arrival. Now, if you know what the camera that I have at the moment looks like and works like, you will fully sympathize with my urgency to get a new camera.
Well, here it is <3


how sexy is black? I frickin love it. 18 mm depth.
oh baby, I love you. and I love you more because I bought you with my own money and my parents will never be able to use the excuse "It's OUR camera, not yours". because it is mine. mineminemine. and no one else I know has it. so I will never get it confused with someone else's. and I will feel special because mine is so damn cool. $300 well spent. <3

Went to the beach with Jess Tuesday night and came back this morning. What a lovely time. I needed a good beach trip. Plus, I made new friends who are very cool. Annnd hung out with one of the guys a lot. ;) Jess and I got down to Mike's (I'll call him Chet since there was another Mike) condo around 6:30, where we found out that Chet, Rosser, and Waski (Sorry if I butchered your last name, pal) hadn't even left yet. They had been fooling with Chet's car again. They got pulled over on the way down since his TransAm had the roar of 1,000 Harley's put together. Insanely loud. Woke up the whole line of condos when he pulled up that night. But anyway, Jess and I got down there and decided to go to the condo right next to us. Jess knew the guy, Andy, who had it. And Andy had two of his friends there, Mike and Jake. So these three were our buddies for most of our little trip. We had the house to ourselves and it was pretty awesome. I hung out at their place with Mike til about 3 in the morning both nights =) Which was fun. We went to the beach Wednesday and then later went out with the boys on their boat. Watched movies, laid around. Relaxing was lovely. Went to the beach again this morning too. Too bad Andy and Mike and Jake all live in Baltimore. It's ok though because I know they'll be there most of the summer and I'll probably hang out at their house again when I go to Bethany with my family next month. And then maybe I'll make Jess take me back again in August, since I know she won't want to be the only girl. So woo I'll see everyone again. I should have taken a bunch of pictures but we were too lazy. Sorry. But I'll get some next time I see the boys.
Oh and I was going to crash Senior Week but I figured that some people would call the cops or something. 0=)
I can't wait to hang out with the guys again. I hope summer is eventful.

It finally feels like school is done. It didn't hit me before. But going to the senior's Baccalaureate last night just rubbed it in a little more. They're leaving! Gone! And now WE are the seniors. And Jess and I are President and VP of the class. It's crazy, but I love it. Next year better be amazing. Just talking to people lately has made me realize that I don't want to screw up my senior year in highschool. I can't wait for college, I'm dying to get out of here. I'm tired of the drama and the secrets and everything that's stressing me out.
I think I'll make a to-do list of things I have to get done to kick off my summer.
1. Stop by Concord and see if I can sign up for summer classes. 2. Go lay outside for a good 4 hours today...starting in about 5 minutes. 3. Write my Little Sister letter 4. Go visit my Little Sister and take her out for icecream or something =) 5. Stop eating so much 6. Convince my parents to let me buy a puppy 7. Save up money for something big that I want to buy myself. 8. Get above a C on all of my finals 9. Find a bikini that I actually like and can afford 10. Start getting a ton of hours waitressing, starting this week.
That's good enough for now.
p.s.- Little Sisters are members of the incoming Freshmen, and each of us Seniors takes a Freshman to help them get to know the school and settle in a little better. I purposely picked the one and only girl who lives in Aston. I think she went to St. Joes. Caitlin Allman, anyone? I don't personally know her but oh well. Hopefully she isn't shy and we'll have fun. =)

| A PLEA FOR HELP! |
[ Jun 1st, 2005 @ 8:17pm] |
Ursuline has had their senior prom at Harry's (which is gorgeous) for the last few years or so, but when they went to book it for next year they found out someone had already reserved it for the Sunday of Memorial Day (which is the traditional day to have it for Ursuline). So they called Dupont Country Club where they used to have it, and they're booked too. So pretty much we have no home for our senior prom. Ursuline is really picky about places too, so this will be a challenge.
So I'm asking you guys: Where did your schools in the area have your proms? And don't tell me Sun Valley's because I know where they were and we can't have them there because it's not formal enough, etc. So if you know of any other places that schools have had their proms, please let me know. Any place in this area or in the Wilmington area would be great. Just so you know, places we've already crossed out for various reasons: Mendenhall Longwood Gardens/Rockwood/Winterthur Heartfeld and of course Harry's and Dupont.
So any suggestions? Feel free to leave them. Keep in mind our senior class is THIRTY NINE PEOPLE. So we cannot have a place that holds 300. ;) Please help me out.
Ohhh wait I'm liking this one I found. Brantwyn Mansion.
so pretty...
[edit]
jk, Sun Valley, I think I have to steal your future senior prom location.
gooooorgeous. I will fight Ursuline for this in many bitter arguments, I'm sure.
