I was in GR for a short period with Ringo last weekend. We were in town to visit our moms for mothers day. Being back was very strange most because I actually new where everything is in GR. Two days is way to short a period of time to visit people and favorite places. I miss everyone so much I am going a little crazy but I think that Ann Arbor is a much more productive Place for me to be. Just know that even though I am gone I miss everyone all the time. Well that is my sappy quota for the day.
First time ever I spell checked anything and it came back no spelling errors. I'm so proud! |

Sorry going to have to postpone my party until I'm more settled in and have more funds. I will keep everyone posted. Hope all is going well. I love it here in Ann Arbor but was very happy to see some people from GR. I do miss everyone, and I also check my LJ religiously now on my breaks at work even if I don't normally have time to post. |

As many may know I am now a resident of Ann Arbor. In an attempt to keep in better contact with those I will love and miss from GR, I am going to write here more often. I am planning to have a party up here on February 18 if any Grand Rapids people would like to make the trip over here (or any friends of mine that read LJ). I will post directions soon. |

| | hopeful | ] | I want to thank Leah for my amazing Live Journal back ground. I know it must have taken your an good amount of you time to make it for me. You know you Rock my world. I sorry Brian but now that I have seen this I do think its better without the farrets. I guess I have not really given the farrets a chance since I have not seen them yet but they dont really fit in with the whole star theme. I may however serch for some cosmos to put in my LJ.
I also want to thank everyone who attended the party on Friday night. I was wonderful to see everyone. I feel as if people who I have been close to in the past, have now become strangers, I see them so infrequently. There are many people who I would like to keep in contect with that I dont see often enough. This is my new goal call people more and stop sitting at my appartment accomlishing nothing.
In general I need to manage my time more wisely. I am proud to say that the past few evenings I have not only been practicing voice and piano but voluntarily reading my music theory books. I hope this trend becomes a habbit, even when my new work schedual becomes more hecktic. Here's to me being more accomplished in my life. |

I think the twenties is the most romantic era. If there is a game like this that aready exsists I would love to know about it. I could make a character that was a jazz diva. It would be great. |

| [ | mood |
| | determined | ] | I have currently spent three hours on livejournal and really have no entries but this to show for it. You can lose all sense of time when you are searching for icon and change settings. It was a fun escape from reality for a few hours. although I will hate myself in the morning when I have to get up for work. Oh well its not like my job is so demanding. We mostly are so slow at Decoda when I work I could take a nap and no one would notice. So today I spent most of the time I wasnt working at my parents house hence the use of a computer hooked to the internet. I had lunch and tea here with my mom and did laundry which ended very badly for my cell phone. It sadly was in my pants pocket when I washed my pants and now is dead. So I missed talking to Raefael but he did leave a very sweet massage for me and told me he would buy a new cell phone for me. That is a nice relief from my current financial burdens. Today while I was on the internet I was also planning a trip to go see him in the next couple of months in mississippi. I think we may go to New Orleans for a weekend if he can get leave. I am ecstatic it seem my luck is slowly changing and I am getting my life in order. Ever since I took Jazz history with Mr Davis I have urned to go to New Orleans the birth place of Jazz. Just the history and culture that I could surround myself with. Who knows it my give that urning to try music again. I do need to find some direction because I feel I am wasting my talent. Today was a good day because even though it is national single awareness day, it is surprisingly a day where I didnt feel alone. Even though Raefael isnt here he calls me every day he can to tell me he misses me and loves me. This separation I feel is going to be even better for our relationship. Also it is giving me more time to make a plan to make my life more stable. Make plans to pay off my debts and decide what I want to spend my life doing that can make me money. I hate my two new job more then any jobs I ever had before (except that I get to see Brian at speedway). Decoda sucks !!! Speedway only mostly sucks !!! I wish I could just find a wealth patron that would pay to hear me sing all the time. |

 You're Thailand! Calmer and more staunchly independent than almost all those around you, you have a long history of rising above adversity. Recent adversity has led to questions about your sexual promiscuity and the threat of disease, but you still manage to attract a number of tourists and admirers. And despite any setbacks, you can really cook a good meal whenever it's called for. Good enough to make people cry. |

 You're Lolita! by Vladimir Nabokov Considered by most to be depraved and immoral, you are obsessed with sex. What really tantalizes you is that which deviates from societal standards in every way, though you admit that this probably isn't the best and you're not sure what causes this desire. Nonetheless, you've done some pretty nefarious things in your life, and probably gotten caught for them. The names have been changed, but the problems are real. Please stay away from children.

Everybody's got something that they want to be in life
And Im sure it's something that you may wanted to try.
It don't matter how old you are or how many dreams you have
or how many people got you back
Let me tell you...
Hay ya'll, don't ever let no one tell you to grow up and give up on your dreams.
Hay ya'll, ain't nothing worse then to let someone tell you to grow up and give up on your dreams.
Everybody's got something that they want to be in life
And Im sure it's something that you may wanted to try.
It don't matter how old you get, or how many kids you got,
or how many things you got to do.
Hay ya'll, don't ever let no one tell you to grow up and give up on your dreams.
Hay ya'll, ain't nothing worse then to let someone tell you to grow up and give up on your dreams.

This week has been unbelievable with Michaal home from the navy. We have had the greatest time and it feels good to know that when an old friend comes home that they have missed you. He even said that there is no one else he would rather spend time with than me. I whole-heartedly agree with him, no one can make me laugh like Michaal. But alas he is only here for a short time and will be gone by the end of the month. He wants me to come to California this summer to meet all his navy friends. There is no doubt in my mind that this summer I will be in California having the time of my life.
So Valentines Day was kind of crazy for me. I worked all day. At Olive Garden we were on a wait from when we opened at 11:00am till after we closed at 11:00pm. I worked straight through and didn't get phased until 11:30. We were still on a wait after the doors were locked. Im not sure if I would have been able to get the evening off , but in some ways I wish I could have. Mark asked me to go hang out with him, his sister Jenni, and her boyfriend Drew. Also michaal asked me to go out with him that night. Going out with either of those guys on VD would have been amazing but also making $240.00 dollars in one day that's also pretty damn amazing. I don't really think either of them have real romantic intension for the evening anyway.
Very soon I am going to North Carolina to visit Ben and Netty. I'm flying down there with Dan. I don't really want to go but I can’t get out of it. Dan paid for the plane ticket I would be such I total bitch to bail on him. I feel like the biggest bitch just admitting that I don't want to go. I guess I won’t have a terrible time. It will be warm there, which will be a nice change. I do enjoy spending time with Ben, Netty, and Dan. I would just rather be spend that time with my in town friends and of corse Michaal in this god forsaken cold. Well at least Dan didn't send me flowers for Valentines Day. Maybe we can just hang out this time and he wont get all weird.
On other great news I got my theory test back today the one I took last Wednesday after only getting three hours of sleep. I was out at noshville with Leah, J-hon, and Michaal until 5 am. Dropped off everyone at there respective houses and made into be bed at 6 am. Got up at 9 am to get ready for school and go take my test at 10 am. Well I totally aced it. 97% I rock so hard! Maybe I really don't need as much sleep as I thought I did. Then I could get everything I need to get done accomplished and not be such a whiney bitch about hanging out with my friends. That's it that's the answer I am just not going to sleep anymore. Except for that situation was problem just a fluke and I would not be able to keep that up for very long. I would no longer be Sarah your friend who is sometimes a whiney bitch about having to go home and sleep. I would just be a sleep deprived BITCH!
I think that this is most likely the longest journal update I have ever done. Yeah me. Well I will see everyone tonight so until then you all rock my world. |

So last night was so much fun it was defiantly worth being tired this morning. I'm really glad that Leah came to Applebee's again it just wasn't the same with out her. I also had a lot of fun with Kim and John.
In reading the past couple of entries from our crew I'm glad to see that people are spreading to love. I agree that our group is in fact the coolest, but it is nice to hear from your friends that you actually matter to them. So good job guys. You rock my world.
So having a little boy troubles as usual. The object of my affections was this morning showing some signs of acknowledgement toward me but as the day progressed he began to avoid me. He did tell me a few weeks ago that he wasn't interest in having a girlfriend at the moment. I think he does like me back which am the worst.
Now that I have my homework done I am hoping someone will want to hang out tonight. I want to ask Ransom to go to the movies or something but I don't think that is going to happen since I am a big chicken. But I’m sure that I will have a wonderful evening weather or not I get to have alone time with him |

| | discontent | ] | I know it seems like Im never around anymore but just know everyone I really wanted to come over to the hill tonight. If anyone would like to hang out with me on a more regular basis weekdays are bad because of school and work blah, blah, blah. Weekends on the other hand I am free most friday and saturday nights if Im not at a concert. I hope everyone is having a fun time at the hill this evening. I had such a great time at Keith's B-day party last night. Although as usual I stayed out way past my bed time. Cards was great fun and I was suckin big time. Oh well you cant always have the amazing hands. I was so dead to the world this morning though. I somehow made it though my classes today without falling asleep. Leena wouldn't give me a lesson though because my tonsils are about twice the size they are suppost to be. I just dont take good care of my health. I want to badly to be that dedicated student that gets all her work done and practices not only piano and voice but maybe the learn a third instrument. I would also like to really study every day a little music theory so I could have every major and minor key burned into my skull. So when Im in theory class I could look at chords in class and analise them faster. I would love to become a real musician. But how can I do that and work and have some kind of a social life lets not even get into me being obsessed with needing a boyfriend. How can I be interested in so many guys at one time and yet have such a compelling urge to run in the other direction. Im so scared they will reject me and terrified they will be interested. I want to finally find that connection with someone but I dont want to be tied down (and I really want to get laid). I just see such great thing in so many people that surround me every day. Well I should get some rest and hopefully tomorrow will be more productive then today. |

| | rejuvenated | ] | So today was pretty amazing because I had choir this afternoon. I even tried out for a solo. Hot Mark was all kinds of fine today oh my god he's so hot, I want to do bad things to that boy. We went out to lunch after choir. He was a little upset that I dont go to BW3 last night. Although I kinda of glad I didnt go. I really did feel like going to the bar last night. Also I would have spent money that I shouldnt have on alcohol. Plus I hung out with Kim last night and I had a wonderful time over there just chillin with him. I got really geeked about New Your at choir today although I still have to come up with $600.00 in two months. Not so bad I guess. Everyone should buy a cook book from me for the Sarah is going to New york fund. So two times in one week I have written in my live journal. Its fan-frickin-tastic. |

How long has it been since I last wrote in this journal? Most would say way to long I guess I just have a hard time knowing what to write. I think I have difficultly expressing the things that really are important to me for all the world to read and everything else seems to me to be mundane. I have been online quite a bit lately trying to find a car without much luck. This has lead me to spend I considerable more time on the internet then usual and so I thought maybe I should write in my live journal account. So as for how I have been as of late. I have been miserable. No real advancement in school or with my aspirations in music. I havn't even had a voice lesson in about a month. I am lonely and unsatisfied with what my life has become. Living my life only to work and occasional spend time with friends. Ive gotten to that point when I tell people that I am still at CC they ask why Ive been there so long, or what plans do I have to go to a real school. I do truly enjoy hang out with my friends but I want to be a party girl again not just sit around and get fat on olive garden food. When did I turn into such a pessimist I used to have such I joyful attitude about life. I need to make so serious lifestyle changes. |

| [ | music |
| | stardust - Django Reinhardt | ] | I PASSED MY 152 JURY FINALLY!
152 jury is when music major such as me has to perform in front of the faculty and then they decided if your musicianship is up to par with the level you are suppost to be performing at. They base this decision not only on your performance, but your grades in all you classes, your voice lessons, the amount of time you spend in the practice rooms, and how well you sight reed on the piano. The last one is what gave me such anguish. I really wish I could play the piano better. Its just such a relief to but done with my 152 because 161 and 162 jury's (which are the next two I have to take) have no requirements for me to touch a piano. Yeah!
Thing are splendid with Jad he is the sweetest man ever and this week Saturday he is taking me to the opera. How wonderful is that? I’m ecstatic beyond imagination. |

This weekend is going to br the coolest. Dan, Nafia, Jad, and I are going to a pas ca after the party at Dan's on saturday (Dan's having a party because he evicted some crazy girl from his house). But the pas ca is an orthodox service for passover and easter (eastern and greek orthodox people celebrate easter this weekend). After the candle lite service they have this huge party and have lots of food and wine. You know its so weird that I'm excited about going to church. |

Although life is busy as usual, I feel more content then I think I have ever felt. Tonight I auditioned for symphony chorus and got in. I have a new boyfriend who I could not be happier about. He is just the most interesting person who treats me like a queen.
Now if I can pass my 152 jury I would be the happiest woman ever to exist. Not really concerned about the jury I am as prepared as I can be and I have been working extra hard on my piano skills this semester. |

| | Miles Davis - birth of the cool | ] | So this is my first journal entry. I think this is a fun I idea to have a live journal and wierd at the same time to know that lots of people (friends and stragers) get to know your personal thoughts. So before I let you all know my durty little secrets I would like to give a shout out to my buddy B. Thanks for hooking it up with the live journal. Brian really is the coolest (and I care for him more then he thinks I do).
Today was a pretty blah day. It seems latly I have felt tired all the time. Im not sure why I actully havn't been staying out until five in the morning. It could be that I have spent hours on end in the practice rooms at school. The last few weeks of the semester are always so stressful and it just makes music so mundane for me. I really hate that feeling because music is the only thing I have a passion for. I would be lost without it. |
