01:45 am - DISNEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ok so disney was amazing!! not only was it amazing but so was traveling without any parents at all! on thursday leaving tenn our plane was over 2 hours delayed which sucked. but we got over it.
so we get there and get lost trying to find the place for Disney's Magical Express inside the airport which was to take us to the hotel. we stayed in Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort. it was amazing and HUGE!!! we were in Aruba, there were clusters of like 100 rooms and each one was named after an island. we had to walk across this isalnd thing full of palm trees bamboo and little beaches to get to where the food court and main pool was. but it was cute cux they played music in the bushes i love disney!
we went to every park and just had an amazing time! even when it rained! but we bought ponchos and just winged it!! it was great cause my mom set the whole thing up we had the hopper pass, the waterparks and more pass, and the complete meal plan where we got 1 snack 1 fastmeal and 1 sit down every day. then we had reservations at the Hoop dee doo Revue at the campground. it was country style comedy show and we sat in the front row of tables center stage and we got made fun of all night. the one guy told me i had butter on my face and i checked. then some guy pickked the chair out from underneath my cousin. lol it was fun.
magic kingdom was fun but we found it the most filled with little kids. now i have been to disney before but once with my parents and once with my grandparents and parents. so going when your 18 with your 21 year old cousin is a lot different. we tried to get on everything, but we just couldnt.
animal kingdom was by far my favorite!! i couldnt get in the park with my card cause my cell phone ruined it so i went to get it fixed and they apologized and gave me a slip of paper that let us just go in the fast pass return line but it was my fault that it happened but i wasnt gonna say anything. so basically we cut the line to the safarfi we should have used it for the new ride Everest but we were going to do fast pass for that anyways but by the time we got there the wait was 3 and half hours and they stopped fast pass! so we didnt get to go on it!! but we had soo much fun in animal kingdom. we even got stuck on the dino primeval thing thats like the mouse but spins you... yea getting stuck on a ride at disney wasnt that bad... lol its disney!!! i climbed down a ladder in disney!! lol
we went to downtown disney and did some shopping went to pleasure island saw some clubs, and lots of drunk people and decided at 1am not to go in any clubs but my id was checked anyways so that was hot. lol
mgm and epcot were kinda duds. but the tower or terror was amazing!! we had to get our pic cux my cousin and i are holding on to each other and my face is just priceless!! lol i didnt know it was like that! but lifting up outta ur chair was amazing!! in epcot text track was fun!! a lot cooler than i thought it would be. then stephanie made me go on mission space, which i was freaking out about because they said if you move ur head or close ur eyes u will get sick. and i close my eyes when i get scared so i was freaking out. but u actually had to do things so it really made u feel like u were on a spaceship. i was the piolet lol. lolhahahahahaha. but the next morning on the news they said that a woman the same time we went on the ride got off of it and fell unconcious and it made me chuckle. we then went to dinner in italy. which was amazing!
every night we went in the pool. and we were constantly shopping! i spent soo mcuh money!!! i did some no no's too. wink wink.
thypoon lagon would have been better if we didnt ahve to hide in a shelter through a really bad storm... TWICE!!! but we had time in bet both storms to go on the crush n gusher and we went on all 3 slides of it and they never told me not to sit my butt all the way down so all 3 times my butt scraped against the black rubber stoppers in the slides. lol we went to the wave pool but the current was too strong then we hopped in the lazy river then the storm came. and we hid in the bathroom for over in hour cause it was the only place no one else thought about going into.
we did SOO much i cant even begin to type it all out!! and i cant explain to you how much fun i had. i feel old. i feel like my parents finally let me out of the nest. i had a blast. omg!!!!!!!! now my cousins and i are all planning a vacation for next summer we may roadtrip to myrtle beach and this fall a whole bunch of us r going to nashville!! i cant wait... but i gotta work to afford to travel. this one was a graduation gift. lol and it was the best one EVER!!!!!!

01:23 am - very delayed update on summer vacation
ok soo my summer vacation offically ends in 23 days. yes thats correct. whether i did the math right or not i will be leaving for college wed august 16th in the afternoon. yeehaw-ville here i come! lol so... my feelings?? well of course im excited and i cant wait, i mean i finally know who my room mate is and its all in place. but at the same time so many thoughts are going through my head. im very sad about leaving. a lot sadder than i thought i was going to be. but more about that when the time gets closer. lol
ok soo the end of june i left for tennessee. it was so much fun. we had this huge family carnival for the 4th of july. i mean seriously we had water games with prizes, a gem mine, a craft table, old time photos, real cotton candy machine, snow cones, hotdogs, grilled food, popcorn, face painting, it was amazing. then before dessert my aunt (who threw it) told me to come to the side of the house and everyone screamed "this is for you! happy graduation!" lol the whole party wasnt mine they made me homemade icecream and cake... my fave dessert. and i had to make a speech i made them cry saying i wouldnt being to college if it wasnt for my family and i think they cried because it was the first time together that they heard how much i loved them all. it made me happy to let them know that i loved them. then my cousin joey decided to be funny. well joey, paula, stephanie (cousins of mine), and my aunt betty all work in the local home shopping network warehouse down there so he said "well if college doesnt work out for you, we can always get you a job at HSN!" lol it made me laugh. they all put in money for a card and gave me some money for my vacation. they didnt have to do that they didnt have to give me icecream and cake either. lol joey's message was my fave. hes the older brother i never had. he seriously lives down the road from my college and said that if i ever need anything to call him that he would always be there for me. that makes me feel good because at least for the first year i will be there on my own and to know i have someone i can count on for basically anything makes me happy. he joked with me when my mom was talking with us and said that he'll even make sure i dont party, but the second i turn 21 he'll see me at the bar. lol
so my other cousin joey i was a lot closer to when we were kids. hes only 2 years older than me. (the other joey is in his 30s). and this joey, ok well call him joey r cause thats his name. lol. ok so joey r is getting married. hes been engaged since last june and they are getting married next june. i became very close to his fiance katie. joey katie and i are the only people going to college in my school, they go to tennessee's version of MCC, but still they have huge plans and im happy to have other people in my family that i can relate to. well she was a lot like me in high school. had a great group of friends involved in clubs and stuff. always went out and had a lot of fun, but she just never dated in highschool. then she did and the guy was an ass. then she kinda was like not dating cause she had a bad experience. she lost hope she thought shed die alone at the age of 90 with a lot of cats. then one day when she least expected it my cousin joey walked into her math class in college and asked her out. my cousin NEVER dated in highschool. they hit it off and knew on the first date that they were in love and had something special. she encouraged me to hang on and to not give up. that college will open my eyes to guys who arent asses and when i least expect it my prince will swipe me off my feet. she gave me so much hope and i now feel alot better about my situation. i know im not the only 18 year old who has never dated or never kissed a guy and i now understand how important it is that i didnt do all that jumbo stuff in highschool because it will mean more now that im older. i trust katie, but sometimes when i get lonely or are with my friends who are couples it gets tough, but i just got to think of everything katie taught me to believe in and thats hope.
vacation this summer really opened my eyes. it was the therapy i needed.
ill update on disney in a seperate update lol

12:47 am - cant sleep
i cant sleep. and its because im scared for tomorrow (today)
i got a gift for graduation in the mail today. it was a waterford crystal from ireland in the shape a 3-leaf clover it represents my irish hertiage. and the package said "for your graduation in memory of grandma" my aunt donna obivously did it. and i got a card fomr her 2 days ago. thats a double reach out. so tomorrow kerri is taking me to invite her to my graduation. now if she doenst come thats ok... but weeks froom now i wouldnt be able to live with myself if i didnt invite her. i know her saying no is very highly, but this is somthing i just have to do, for me. if anything i can rest knowing i invited her, i did the right and polite thing. yes its a little late and short-notice. but like they say "better late than never" besides... with this stuff there never is the perfect time. im sooooooo scared. i cant sleep. ive had nightmares about the next time i see her and its going to be tomorrow. the butterflies are like snakes now they hurt sooo bad im soo nervous i feel sick.

02:25 pm - graduation is in 9 days.
i graduate high school in 9 days. and im not very excited anymore. i just found out that no one from my family in tennessee is coming. no one can get off from work. and im very upset. see my aunt barb who happens to be my fave aunt told me she got off of work and was planning on coming. she was planning on getting a whole car load of family and coming up here for my graduation. and i was sooo excited becasue when i was a freshmen and my cousins all graduated i said to my mom "i dont want a graduation gift all i want is aunt barb and family from tenn at my graduation"...
then my aunt called my mom and told her that she cannot come. her boss didnt promote people or something like that and she cant come. my aunt rita who lives in memphis was planning on coming since she graduated from the first class to graduate at EHS now i dont particaully like her but it was a nice gesture for her to come all the way here just for my graduation, but my uncle needs a heart pacer and they planned on it being in by now but its not so they cant come... and i completely understand that.i love him i dont want anything to happen to him if he came here...omg i would feel sooo GUILTY!! im just very upset that no one is coming. but my mom told me they are going to have a party for me while im there on vacation. so i guess its ok... its just not the same. see the thing is... my whole life we've been the only people to live here in nj, so no one ever came here for any of my important stuff in life, we've always gone there. so i was hoping that maybe since its my graduation someone, even just ONE of the 30 of them would come... but nope they arent. its just my parents. i invited my 2 youth leaders from churhc becasue they are amazing and support me through everything in life, they went to my grandmas wake and they even took 2 hours off of work to come to the funeral/service part of my grandmas funeral before the burial. i think im going to invite my sarrogote grandparents next door to come and my mom is obivously getting my pop pop to come. i undertsand completely that my family needs to work, everyone does.... but i just dont feel like gradution is this huge deal anymore. maybe once finals are over and im not stressed and i actually wake up the morning of graduation maybe then it will. im sure it will. ive been in such a bad mood because of this today. and i just feel like shit. i have cramps up the waaazooo and this is just urking me.
i have such mixed feelings about graduation. im so excited about moving to tennessee and starting the life that ive always dreamed off. i have so many goals and dreams and they are only possible there. but at the same time i dont want to leave and theres soo many people i know i will never see again and i dont want to say goodbye. i know i will still always see my closest groups of friends but theres a few random un-named people that i may never run into while im here and i will miss them. theres a lot of people that when they leave my graduation party i probaly wont see them until winter break so im def going to cry when they leave. and all these goodbyes have me scared and nervous. i want to stay in touch with everyone and i want to see everyone when i do fly/come home but sometimes thats just impossible you always lose touch with people... but i dont want to!! but im ready to move on im ready to start my life fresh and do the things i want. im ready to meet new people and start all over again. i have nothing left here. i dont mean to keep saying it but i truly mean it when i say that when my grandma died... i lost everything. she was the only thing keeping me here. and she even told me that king college and tennessee was where i had to be in order to achieve my goals. the week b4 she died she told me to go to king. i told her first when i got accpeted and made sure it was ok to go that far away from her. shes in the wind forever. so even though ill be in tennessee whenever i feel the wind i know shes there with me. like today.. its soo windy- i know shes right here by my side today. im habing a bad day and she nkows that and shes right here next to me in the wind... she is my guardian angel.

11:35 pm - senior year... it finally hit me
its senior year and it finally hit me. tonight was my last concert in high school, i am done with high school band. i still remember the first time i played piano when i was 5 in my first rectial and i still remember kindermusik from when i was 2-5. miss pam, the woman who taught me music. the person who frist introduced me to something that would become apart of my identity. thne elementry school first violin with mr rikter then flute then clarinet. thne off to middle school with ms ford. and i quit band going into 7th grade when i was told she was leaving and this new guy was replacing her. good old mr fossa. the person i blame for my obsession with band. lol he introduced me to the oboe, and for that i thank him! thne high school. which was amazing...even though i fell in a sclumb this year. its over. never again will i make music with these people these people that i have since middle school, elementary for some. its sad. but its good too. so its bittersweet. im happy because now i realized that im moving onto the rest of my life... and im SOOOOO excited about this next chapter of my life. college is my placee, im going to live it up and just live and love every experience i have. i cannot wait. theres 4 mondays left of school not including graduation since thats on a sunday too. i finally am proud to be a senior and to say that i can not wait for college!!

09:32 pm - the famine is tomorrow
yes the famine is tomorrow i cant eat for 30 hours, im excited. yet at the same time im kind of pissed. 2 weeks ago i was frekaing out cux nothing done, so i took it upon myself to do it all by myself. now one person is trying to change all the work i have done. and this person isnt even coming on time to the lock in and isnt finishing the famine with us. and i am offended because this same person went and changed the t-shirt deisgn that i worked soo hard on to and printed out copies for everyone without making anyone pay for the transfer paper. im sorry but that was very rude of this person. this is the same person who before spring break says to me "oh maggie i dont mind doing everything and taking charge since your life is so busy!" and now this person hasnt done anything and isnt doing the complete thing.
ok moving on... im getting my hair done tomorrow. im excited about my high lights.. i will be blonder for prom. im going tanning tomorrow as well. heheheheh im tan. and i LOVE IT!! well im poooped and have a LONG weekend starting tomorrow at 12pm. lol
