As miserable as i was this trip I'll miss ireland. I always miss it when i leave. My true home is here, but my life is in portland. Its really hard to split my heart between two countries. My sisters are here, and my best friends and lover are in the states.. i just wish sometimes that everyone lived in the same area so i wouldnt ever miss anyone. But enough of that sappy crap. I'm super excited to be going back to Portland and see my kitties and michael! :D Too bad I have to do school work the entire rest of my break. I shouldn't have taken those damn incompletes. I guess its a good thing i did since i can get my grades up, but man... no rest for me. &gt;.&lt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My flight tomorrow is at 9am. SOoooo early. hehe. I have to get up at like 5am. get to the airport by 7. check in... and run to my gate/customs. And i have so much shit i'm taking on the plane. I have a backpack, purse, portfolio, umbrella (couldn't find anywhere to pack it) and I'll have a bag full of tea and biscuits that i'm taking home! eeK! I'm not looking forward to carting all that stuff. But oh well, stupid me for bringing a tiny suitcase. At least I'm in buisness class going home! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well. i should go repack my bags then. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;See you all later!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Puck &lt;3</description><comments>http://sketches.xanga.com/636342268/item/#firstcomment</comments></item><item><title>Monday, January 07, 2008</title><link>http://sketches.xanga.com/636223485/item/</link><guid>http://sketches.xanga.com/636223485/item/</guid><pubDate>Mon, 07 Jan 2008 20:29:28 GMT</pubDate><description>So i was reminiscing the other day and listening to some backstreet boys songs.. And I couldn't stop thinking about someone i miss very greatly. She should know who she is. Especially after i post some lyrics. :P I can't stop thinking about her... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just Want You To Know - Backstreet Boys&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;"Looking at your picture from when we first met&lt;br /&gt;You gave me a smile that I could never forget&lt;br /&gt;And nothing I could do could protect me from you that night&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wrapped around your finger, always on my mind&lt;br /&gt;The days would blend 'cause we stayed up all night&lt;br /&gt;Yeah, you and I were everything, everything to me&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I just want you to know that I've been fighting to let you go&lt;br /&gt;Some days I make it through and then there's nights that never end&lt;br /&gt;I wish that I could believe that there's a day you'll come back to me&lt;br /&gt;But still I have to say I would do it all again&lt;br /&gt;Just want you to know"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Beautiful Woman" - BSB&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"My beautiful woman&lt;br /&gt;My beautiful woman&lt;br /&gt;My beautiful woman&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;B is for beautiful&lt;br /&gt;As the sunshine&lt;br /&gt;E tells me everything is feelin' alright&lt;br /&gt;A goes to you and me swingin' it down&lt;br /&gt;T is two&lt;br /&gt;I want you, You've got me actin' like a&lt;br /&gt;Fool.."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And lastly, some oldschool BSB... Anywhere For You&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"I used to think that dreams were just&lt;br /&gt;For sentimental fools&lt;br /&gt;And Id never find someone&lt;br /&gt;Who'd give their love so true&lt;br /&gt;But I knew the very minute&lt;br /&gt;Couldn't live my life without you in it&lt;br /&gt;And now I want the whole world&lt;br /&gt;To know"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hope i haven't made anyone feel awkward or anything (I'm sure I haven't) But I needed to post these... I'm sure its just because I'm so homesick that I starting thinking about her, but I don't know, I haven't seen her in a long time so.. maybe its time we visited? She was my first true love, and I will never forget it. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;3&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;</description><comments>http://sketches.xanga.com/636223485/item/#firstcomment</comments></item><item><title>Wednesday, October 24, 2007</title><link>http://sketches.xanga.com/623177622/item/</link><guid>http://sketches.xanga.com/623177622/item/</guid><pubDate>Wed, 24 Oct 2007 01:21:57 GMT</pubDate><description>&lt;embed src='http://videomedia.ign.com/ev/ev.swf' flashvars='object_ID=746237&amp;downloadURL=http://moviesmovies.ign.com/movies/video/article/815/815296/avp_trailer_082307_flvlowwide.flv&amp;allownetworking="all"' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' width='433' height='360' &gt;&lt;/embed&gt;this movie looks so kickass.</description><comments>http://sketches.xanga.com/623177622/item/#firstcomment</comments></item><item><title>Thursday, October 18, 2007</title><link>http://sketches.xanga.com/622120815/item/</link><guid>http://sketches.xanga.com/622120815/item/</guid><pubDate>Thu, 18 Oct 2007 05:21:53 GMT</pubDate><description>Today went ok, did the still life in class, a short one on smaller paper than everyone else. I have to set up my own one at home and spend about 20 hours on it. &amp;gt;.&amp;lt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Went shopping with michael after school, which was fun apart from getting soaked :D I got a new game to play, well its new to me, its actually really old I think, its called Neverwinter Nights. Its super fun, play is like diablo. :) And i got a case for my ipod so i wont break it. :D &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Really tired now.. I'm gonna go to bed.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;xoxo&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Puck&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description><comments>http://sketches.xanga.com/622120815/item/#firstcomment</comments></item><item><title>Tuesday, October 16, 2007</title><link>http://sketches.xanga.com/621902880/item/</link><guid>http://sketches.xanga.com/621902880/item/</guid><pubDate>Tue, 16 Oct 2007 21:58:16 GMT</pubDate><description>So that class i missed, yea it's coming back to bite me in the ass lol. We started a 20 hour still life that day and we're supposed to come in outside of class to work on it... well I'm going to seattle this weekend and won't be able to... cuz im sorry I won't ride the bus at 9pm to go to school to sit with one other person in an empty classroom, cuz everyone else can go during the day. the bastids. I'm working out an alternative solution with my teacher but its a royal pain. &lt;br /&gt;In other news.... the color project is still fun :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But enough about that.. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is totally a storm brewing, I can feel it in my bones... its been pouring down rain all day and on my way home the wind picked up nearly sending me flying off with my portfolio. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Luna is being a total sweety, it makes me feel suspicious... like what did she do while i was gone... lol. Its probably cuz michael is home now. She hates it almost as much as I do when he isnt here. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aaaaand a message to all my friends, &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you happen to be in the portland area and you have my phone number give me a call so we can get coffee or something, I miss you guys!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;crystal - Ill try that stuff :) ty.&lt;br /&gt;bobbi-  I'll send you a note sometime within the next few weeks to let you know what ive been up to and to see how you are. Miss you lady :)&lt;br /&gt;Manu - &lt;3&lt;3&lt;3 miss you!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;xoxo&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Puck</description><comments>http://sketches.xanga.com/621902880/item/#firstcomment</comments></item><item><title>Monday, October 15, 2007</title><link>http://sketches.xanga.com/621725367/item/</link><guid>http://sketches.xanga.com/621725367/item/</guid><pubDate>Mon, 15 Oct 2007 23:52:29 GMT</pubDate><description>last entry of the day..

We were given a black and white image, and we have to invent the color for it. Essentially we redraw it and change it so its our own, and then add color to it. Or whatever we like really. In mine I'm giving all the people in it wings, as a sort of irony since my photograph is of a bunch of people at an airport. I've also made mine all very bright colors and made the edges very fuzzy so it sort of buzzes. it looks really cool. I'm excited to do it on the full size paper.... its going to be crazy! &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;In other news, Luna decided that computer power cords are chew toys... she got shocked a little... I hope she learned her lesson. lol. doubt it. She has so far ruined:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;- 2 phone chargers&lt;br&gt;- 1 mouse&lt;br&gt;- 1 keyboard&lt;br&gt;- 1 playstation controller &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;and I'm sure there are other cords ive missed. &amp;gt;.&amp;lt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Does anyone know a good way to get a kitten to stop biting on cords? I could really use some help, I'm afraid shes gonna pick to big of a cord and kill herself &amp;gt;.&amp;lt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Lemme know in comments if you have any ideas... &lt;br&gt;</description><comments>http://sketches.xanga.com/621722103/item/#firstcomment</comments></item><item><title>Monday, October 15, 2007</title><link>http://sketches.xanga.com/621699847/item/</link><guid>http://sketches.xanga.com/621699847/item/</guid><pubDate>Mon, 15 Oct 2007 17:30:36 GMT</pubDate><description>So I dont feel much better, but I'm going to my second class. I didn't do the reading or write the essay but I should be there for the discussion. Im doing my term paper in that class on the Grimm Brothers... Its exciting but its going to be hard. :( I hate term papers. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Michael comes home today! I'm very excited for that. I miss him. :) &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Its pouring down rain outside. :( And I can't find my umbrella. Days like this make me want to just stay in bed. Stupid art school... :(&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Well I have to get going or ill miss my bus. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;xoxo&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Puck&lt;br&gt;</description><comments>http://sketches.xanga.com/621699847/item/#firstcomment</comments></item><item><title>Monday, October 15, 2007</title><link>http://sketches.xanga.com/621642771/item/</link><guid>http://sketches.xanga.com/621642771/item/</guid><pubDate>Mon, 15 Oct 2007 13:17:55 GMT</pubDate><description>took me a while to get to sleep. woke up not feeling rested at all.... skipping first class due to bloodsugar issues... going back to bed :D&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I really have to work on this going to class thing. &gt;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;xoxo&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Puck</description><comments>http://sketches.xanga.com/621642771/item/#firstcomment</comments></item><item><title>Monday, October 15, 2007</title><link>http://sketches.xanga.com/621566054/item/</link><guid>http://sketches.xanga.com/621566054/item/</guid><pubDate>Mon, 15 Oct 2007 05:27:00 GMT</pubDate><description>So, michael is out of town tonight, so im by myself in the apartment... and i cant sleep. Idk why, but whenever hes not here im suddenly unable to function like i normally do. A few minutes ago i just broke down crying because my brain drifted off to the memories of my nana.. and I miss her so much that I just started bawling. I feel like such an idiot when this happens to me. I have to get up in 6 and a half hours and Im wide awake. Tomorrow is going to suck ass. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I miss all my friends back home. I dont get to see anyone anymore. :( &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Im going home on friday to see my mom and dad and my brother and my new niece. Thats a little exciting. :) &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wish I had more controll over my thoughts than i do. They always drift where I dont want them to go. And always when im trying to sleep. I think maybe now that Ive vented about my issues I might be able to sleep but idk. I hate being alone, even with the two kitties. Somehow I don't see either luna or apollo fending off any intruders. :/&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alrighty, I'm going to try to sleep again, If i cant... you will be getting another entry.... yay! .... :(&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;xoxo&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Puck</description><comments>http://sketches.xanga.com/621566054/item/#firstcomment</comments></item></channel></rss>
