my life

I want to fall in love again, and more.

I want to go to London again.

I want to frolic with penguins in Antarctica (or somewhere warmer.)

I want to see Jimmy Eat World in concert as many times as possible.

I want to be fallen in love with.

I want to always be happy with who I am, what I look like, who I'm with, and what I'm doing with my life.

I want Mike and I to hang out perpetually my senior year of college =0)

I want to be loved and respected by the students I plan to have eventually, and to really show people how much I love music and the great things it brings to people.

a beginning to a list of things I want to do...jst brainstorming today. I want to keep up with this journal, haha, but that's proving to be a little difficult. ta-ta for now.

hey guys,

this is really hard for me to write about so I'm sort of just going to say what needs to be said and it might not be too organized but i don't really care. Pat, a friend from school, called me today and told me that two of my friends, two people that I sing with, got into a car accident last night...my friends Sean Doyle and Lauren Miller. Sean is okay, he was driving. He was released from the hospital this morning...However, Lauren didn't make it though...she died in the accident, and we think right away. She was a sophomore Music Ed major, a Chamber singer, and an amazing person. She was one of those people that just lit up a room when she came in, everyone liked her, you know...we weren't really that close but close enough that I'm really upset and everything. I found out today at 1, and drove down to Fredonia to be with Pat. He's been pretty much telling everyone and he's being really strong...I'm proud of him. Everyone else is home for the weekend, so I won't be able to see anyone else until we get to Binghamton.

The wake is Tuesday at 4 and the funeral is Wednesday at 10, both in Binghamton. We'll probably be leaving Fredonia Tuesday morning, staying at a hotel, and coming back Wednesday sometime.

This is so unreal, I've never had someone so close to me die and it was so sudden and out of nowhere. I'm just sort of numb right now. Anyway I just wanted to tell you guys. I love you all so much...I wish I could have seen more people on fall
break and everything.

OK talk to you soon.

love, MK

it's 3 am i must be lonely

actually it's 2:30, but close enough. I haven't been up this late in awhile...and I have class at 9. yeeaahhhh....good times. I was hoping this would make me fall asleep. I will be home this weekend and I can't wait =0) Not that it is a huge break, but it's nice. even though I'll be doing work for like all of Monday and Tuesday, haha. I have to go make up an accompaniment to a song I'm gonna be singing with the third graders on Wednesday. Hooray for playing by ear. Wow could I get more boring? ...Mike finally sent me the website files in the correct format so hopefully in less than a month it will be up on the web. Ok probably before that. I think Mike and I are going to get an apartment in the spring of 2005...at least that's what I'm hoping for. How much fun would that be?! Our house would be completely decorated in SBTB posters and we would constantly have the Dawson's Creek theme playing in the background. It would be such a party spot! =D I'm so in love with Jimmy Eat World. They have a DVD coming out this month, HOOOORAY! Oh everyone shed a little tear for the two fishies my roomie and I have lost in the past week. awwww.................................................................. Well I don't know how to make paragraphs so that's my big pause. good luck to Brian, Brad and Sean tomorrow in the ETHOS concert....and good night y'all.

and all that jazz

there is nothing to say, so I am going to recommend some music....well just list some of my favorite bands and stuff, just because it makes me feel good and hopefully you will listen...

i'm currently into jazz, thanks to chris. i have like 8975356 new cds. harry connick jr. and diana krall are at the top of my list, but i'm trying to leave some space for the instrumental too. it's such great music. and as far as other genres, i am always in love with dashboard. and jimmy eat world. i branch out with other bands but they are still at the top. youuuuuuuu're the top. and of course "go tell aunt rhody" outkast style is a classic. and the moose song is always a favorite. if you don't know that song, ask me and i'll sing it for you. it's a new favorite of the junior class of mason.

nothing else to say. fall break is coming. yay kenmore! i'm glad i actually thought of an idea for these third graders next week...watch my teacher go and tell me it completely sucks. ok good night. go listen to some recording of "the look of love". what a great song that is =0)

I'M HOOOOOOOOOOOOME!!!!!!!!!!! Tonight Beast, Mike, Jill and I went to a movie and then to Coffee &, even though I hated it this summer because we were there every day. Luckily Jill and Mike kept up that tradition. We saw 'Thirteen' and I thought it was very good. I recommend. We also saw Fancy Pants outside the theater but that's just another story. Tomorrow Mike and I are going to the greatest place on Earth! (besides London) The mmmmmaaaaaall! mmmmm orange chicken. mmmm 80's decor. =0) And then tomorrow it's back to Freddy for a little Chamber Singers partying and Chris birthdaying. Shaping up to be quite a weekend folks. And I get to top it off with a Bills VICTORY and planning a rhythm lesson for 3rd graders. Does it get sweeeeter? Happy Birthday to my fabulous roomie, the big 21. ahhhhh...it's nice to be home. yes I know I live an hour away, but it's still nice to be back. VIX IS CLOSING!!!!!!!!!!!! HELLOOOO!! what is this world coming to. ok time for bed because we are getting an early start at the mall. goodnight :)

I get to come home tomorrow =0) EASTERN HILLS MALLLLL!! and then it's back to freddy again on Saturday to go to a party. My life is so full of lovely things. It's also full of potential lesson plans that I should be working on and have not been inspired to yet. I get to teach a song tomorrow in conducting. ooh I made an amazing mix cd the other day...we're talking like really a mix, including Harry Connick jr, Weezer, the Beatles and Goldfinger. Uhhhh ok nothing else to say. I should go pay the phone bill I've been forgetting about for like two weeks. Makeoutclub.com is stupid. good night!

I had a viiiiision of love

nevermind the random Mariah Carey title...my friends were playing the DVD. Well today was a full, icky day of class. I really did like nothing. Then tonight we went on a lovely excursion to Tj Maxx and Walmart, where I got some hair stuff to look even more beautiful. My friend did my hair last night and it looked quite cute. It got rave reviews.

In other news...um nothing. I hope to come home for Friday night *ahem =0)* and the site hasn't really been updated but it WILL BE!!!!!!!!! i'm also currently in love with harry connick jr.'s music. peace out.

a lovely Sunday afternoon

well my banner works as you can tell, yay! I have mucho work to do today but naturally I've spent my time making a banner for Mike and watching football. Weekends just weren't made for homework. Last night I went to a really small party and it was sort of weird and my friends and I sort of just hung out with each other and didn't mingle. Then we went back to Pat's room and watched Beauty and the Beast and drank this vanilla vodka stuff. It was good =0) I also got a late-night call from Jill and Mike. Tonight I have more big plans of eating dinner with my family and watching the Bills game. When am I gonna get that work in, hmmm...

Anyways I miss home and I can't wait to be there soooon. And the website Mike keeps talking about is on its way, so be ready for an amazing experience to come to you very soon. ta-ta

i like easy mac

well it's a dreary Sunday evening, and I'm conceiving a lesson plan for third graders. Actually I've sort of been procrastinating all afternoon and I'm starting to feel guilty, I shouldn't even be writing this AHHH!!! Mike and I went to the mall yesterday and it was almost completely amazing except they are DEMOLISHING THE FOOD COURT!!!!! ONE OF OUR FAVORITE PLACES AND IT'S BEING RIPPED TO SHREDS! We had to eat with the commoners. It was sad. Today is my friend Chris's birthday and last night we had some dinner and cake for his birthday. This was a combination with another party the same night. I actually didn't get drunk at all, while a few others did *some for the first time =0)* I wore a new shirt that is cute but very boob-showing. I wasn't aware how much though, and eventually I got sick of covering them with my hands and borrowed a shirt from the wonderful Katie Houck. I felt sorta weird at the party, and I'm still not sure why. haha live journals are so lame, you can't write anything without SOMEONE reading it and knowing exactly what you're talking about, so anyway, I can't really elaborate, but I'll just say some people just rubbed me the wrong way (not in a sexual way...of course). I went out with Lindsay, Minh and Laura later and that was fun. yay Lindsay for her employee discount =P Then we went to her house and ate our weight in chips and salsa. Mmmmm...ok I REALLY need to get working on this darling lesson plan. I get to go make a tape of annoying kids songs, thanks to the wonderful Pat and his stereo. sooooooooo thanks for reading. =0)
