I started classes today. I really have my schedule down pact. Everybody here is really becoming my new family. My roomates name is Yolanda, she's from Ohio (It's suppose to get a visit from Katrina also). I thought I would be the only youngest person here. Natalia who is two doors down from me is 16. We both graduated early and are pratically taking some of the same classes. Natalia wants to become a Veterinarian. I still have no clue what I want to do or be. I also have three older women in their 40's and 50's attending two of my classes. Which I think is so cool. It's never to late for an education. Natalia and I, applied for several Part Time jobs at the Valley View Mall (which isn't that far). I hope I get the one at Target. My parents said not to worry about money and stuff. They both say that everything is okay. But, I wouldn't feel comfortable asking them for anything at this point. I had a free ride all summer (screwing around on the internet and buying crap) and they've given me so much already. I not going to burden them at all. My grades are going to be the main focus. My father said he's pretty sure his house which is in Kenner and his business in Metairie are very under water and destroyed and he's happy that they made it out in time. They are staying at my uncle's house. Daddy's going to enroll Adam at a local school in Shreveport. My mother and sister, said that some of the residents in Natchez are giving them alot of clothes and extra stuff. It's hard to handle the fact that if I didn't have Hollins I would be homeless right now. Basically, everything I bought with me to Virginia is pretty much all that I owe. That blows my mind. Roanoke is my home now.

Well alot has happened in a span of a couple of days. I left for Virginia on the 20th. I start classes on the 31th and I am settled in okay. But, all I can think about is New Orleans. All I ever thought about was leaving that place and never coming back. But, now I really want to be home and with my family right now. I talked to my Mother and sister and they went to Natchez, Mississippi. My father and his wife my little brother Adam, went to Shrevport. New Orleans is so flooded and everything is so messed-up. At least their are no deaths and people are leaving and safe. That's all I can hope for. For now, I speak to my family often and I am glued to the C.N.N.

I have decided to leave the Fan Club forum or whatever for Troy. It is really frustrating being there. Everytime I post something. Their is no response or a unwanted response from a complete and total asshole. Fansite should be about people expressing their love or appreciation for an artist. Not attacking someone (ME). Who basically give them alot of pictures and articles. So I'm done with that site. These little kids express exactlly how I truly feel inside. Good Riddance


In Other News. Better news. I'm reading two books right now. I got from thre library.

The Heart is a Lonely Hunter by Carson McCuller (The Journey of Mick Kelly is amazing)
Rubyfruit Jungle by Rita Mae Brown (Molly is also an intersting heroine as well)

Orientation is in a week. I have everything I need for Virginia. I am still shopping for new clothes and shoes. It's my weekness. I leave for Virginia on the 23rd. The next time I come home it will be for Thanksgiving and Christmas.
I really want to start my own Troy Garity Fan Site. Because, I don't really like the one I'm on now. No one communicates or shares anything. It's so dead there. I just need to start my own and get some information on building websites.
Here is a new Troy link

My new Chemical Romance shirt. I love Gerard Way so much. I bought it today at this really cool book store. I also got the new Bust magazine with Justin Theroux on the cover. I have to remember to renew my subsribtion for Virginia.


Claire's lime grren hearse is gone forever. I will miss it so.
Six Feet Under was amazing Sunday night. Claire is drunk, David is messed up, Brenda's delivering early, Keith is becoming a wonderful father to the boys, Ruth wants Maya and Rico is stepping up and starting his own business with Vanessa's help. Rico and Vanessa are much better together. Just one more episode and it's all over.

I saw Skeleton Key Yesterday. It was a really good movie. Kinda sorta hooror movie meets mystery movie in a way. At first I thought it would be like Candyman, but it really suprised me at the end. I wasn't expecting that.

I was first drwan to him back in 1992, when he played Jackie Jackson in that Jackson TV Movie. He was so good looking. Since then he has had bit parts in movies. Mostly out shining his co-stars. Now with Hustle and Flow he will be a household name. It is so long overdue.
Here are Two tracks from the Hustle and Flow Soundtrack
Whoop That Trick
It's Hard Out Hard Out Here (For A Pimp )

Well Nate really is dead which totally suprised me. Because. I thought he was okay after he woke from the coma. But, Six Feet Under did it and killed him.

I am so happy to be home. Last Night they showed Bandits on ABC. I was so happy to see Troy's face.
We stayed at the Wyndham Roanoke Airport. Which was a great room by the way. When we got there they gave us passport that were to be stampted evertime we visites a new section of the University. We went on tours and got to see all the clases and meet the Professors. I even met my big sister named Sarah. Sarah from Broken Arrow, Oklahoma. she's class of 2007 and she's really nice, she showed me around and told me how things would be. The dorm rooms look actually quite nice. I won't get to know which room is mine or my roomates until after orentation later this month. Their is free high speed internet and my mom said she would get me a laptop so I will be truly happy. They also have a really cool library called The Wyndham Robertson Library.

On Friday the 5th. We went to go see Earth, Wind and Fire at the Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre-Virginia Beach. It was an amazing concert. Everybody was really pumped and excited . We also went to the Alexandria Black History Museum on the 3rd. A lot of people left the Museum crying it was really emotional place.
