Have you ever had to confess something to a lover or friend?<br /></span>The only things I've confessed are whether or not I like them more than a friend. That always tends to backfire. <br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">2. How well do you handle rejection?<br /></span>I try not to take it personally! SOmetimes it's hard to because, well, it usually it personal. But hey it just means that I'm one person closer to someone that would never, ever reject me :)<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">3. What makes you feel old?<br /></span>seeing freshman on campus, seeing high school girls with braces, references to movies and music that you understand but even someone five years younger doesn't. <br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">4. What makes you feel young?<br /></span>flexibility, the fact that I'm "in my 20's," being called a college grad, seeing my grandmothers. <br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">5. What’s something you are old school about?<br /></span>dating. Well I was <span style="font-style:italic;">soooo</span> forward (or so I thought)... but then I really realized how much I like to have the guy pursue me instead of me pursuing him <br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">6. What TV show's seasons would you buy on DVD? Tell us why it rocks.<br /></span>True Blood... vampires, duh. <br />Dexter... always, always, always. He is the perfect character. The perfect balance of good and bad. You can't help but like him and sometimes you want to shout, "HOW CAN YOU BE SO STUPID!?"... the show makes me feel like I just ran a marathon, I'm so exhausted after watching. ha!<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">7. If you could create your own TV channel, what would it be?<br /></span>surfing 24/7 and anything related to the culture. Music, art, etc.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">8. Where do you like to go for a day trip?<br /></span>Anywhere peaceful. I don't like too much noise. <br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">9. Name some things that you still want to do in your life.<br /></span>Get married, take a trip around the world, live by the beach (i don't care where), have my art up in a gallery, have a photo career of some sort, be happy :)<br /><br /><a href="http://samanthasaturday9.blogspot.com/">Saturday Nine</a>Nataliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10867360120617266317noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2299475964289064790.post-47756504506892546292008-12-15T11:49:00.000-05:002008-12-15T11:50:04.291-05:00I wish<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_WzBZIQGvbTw/SUaKs2K3KiI/AAAAAAAAATQ/U8buXNSNOm0/s1600-h/NationalTellASecretDay.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_WzBZIQGvbTw/SUaKs2K3KiI/AAAAAAAAATQ/U8buXNSNOm0/s400/NationalTellASecretDay.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5280060116198435362" /></a>Nataliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10867360120617266317noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2299475964289064790.post-1192455650403347492008-12-09T22:37:00.001-05:002008-12-09T22:38:30.525-05:00Quote<font size="5">“Life is full of beauty.

I am sure a lot of people have friends in their lives that have passed. My friend Zach passed away almost three years ago. I can't believe it has been almost three years since I've talked to him last. I remember talking to him the sunday before he died and I told him I'd call him back later because I was going to go watch Family Guy with my friend Steve in the dorm next door. 7:14pm. Sunday. Last time I ever heard his voice speaking my name. I would do anything to get that back. He passed away five days later. <br /><br />The reason I am writing about him now is that I keep having the most vivid dreams about him recently. I mean, the past couple of years I've had numerous dreams. But never so many in a row. I dreamt last night that he was reading a letter to me, filled with memories he wanted to tell his friends about us. We have less memories than I'd like because of the distance... But he didn't seem to know. He was wearing a blue plaid button up shirt and his torn up abercrombie jeans. His floppy blond hair was beautiful and I felt as if I could touch it. I somehow got called into the office at my University... umm there is like 500 offices! I don't know how they found me... I told Zach I'd be right back... but the advisor told me I owed them money... lots of it. They wouldn't let me go until I paid them in full. I got nervous and anxious because i knew something bad was going to happen to <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_WzBZIQGvbTw/SQScEEebgyI/AAAAAAAAAR4/CEZtmLs8ALs/s1600-h/love.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_WzBZIQGvbTw/SQScEEebgyI/AAAAAAAAAR4/CEZtmLs8ALs/s400/love.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5261501858410365730" /></a>... the advisor left to get some paper work and I proceeded to do some damage around his office and deleted all my information off his computer. I felt anxious in my dream and even in my dream I was running because I had to get back to Zach. <br /><br />I found him in a field with other people, I don't remember their faces. But he was okay, and they were all looking at something in the same direction. I threw myself at him and hugged him. You know when you can feel the body of the person you're hugging? Just the curves fitting into yours? I felt that. Even in a dream, I felt that his body was against mine. I was so relieved he was okay. I kept yelling to the advisor that I had to get back, and the feeling was urgent, and now that I got there... he was okay. He hugged me really close and It felt. <i>so</i>. <b>real</b>. He had a camera and wanted a picture of us. We don't have any of us together... I just have pictures I took of him and thats all. The camera tried to take a picture, and failed. again. again. and again. That's when I woke up... frustrated I couldn't get another memory with him. I wish there was a type of technology that enables you to take the pictures you have in your head. <br /><br />You know, I always wonder why God took him away from us. from his family. from <u>me</u>. I'm so jealous of all the people that have found their loves and God has let them have them. Let them kiss. Let them hold hands. Let them make memories for until death parts them <b>in the end</b> not in the beginning. Let them marry. Let them share each other. Zach was "it" for me. <b>Finally</b>. I found someone who cherishes my mind and heart. He was mine... for a little bit. God gives us the deepest desires of our heart but I feel that all I can think about is how i want Zach back. I think that if i were given the option of having him back, I would give up <u>everything</u> to have him back. If it meant that he could live and if I could die then I would take it. I just want one more day. I keep making up memories that aren't true. I want reality. I still have his number and I still listen to his voicemail. I'm not ready to let him go. It's been three years, I feel I have to. <br /><br />if you ever hang out with me and feel like I'm obsessed with taking pictures, or wanting to see you even though you live 5 bajillion miles away....it's because of Zach. I don't want to lose anymore friends and I don't want people to lose me. You have to work hard to keep your geographical points close. I feel guilty because sometimes i feel as if I didn't work hard enough. God I feel has a plan, we may not always agree with it... but it's going to happen. I just wish it didn't happen in a circumstance where I cannot see my friend for a very long time. <br /><br />Today is going to be hard.Nataliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10867360120617266317noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2299475964289064790.post-38241215248616552512008-10-20T22:18:00.003-04:002008-10-20T22:25:53.547-04:00Things work outLittle things in life really make me appreciate it... it being life itself. Today I had a pretty hard morning, my thoughts elsewhere and not in the present. I am wanting to move out to settle somewhere more peaceful as well as to kind of move on with my life. I'm trying to get an internship and I want to have a place that feels more like a home when I get back. I don't know... I've just had difficulty settling down ever since I moved in. This is my senior year, and that doesn't really matter when I'll look back on it... but I was really looking forward to just relaxing and keeping calm with the people I am used to. I had a bad experience living up on North Campus and this house just reminds me of it all. <br /><br />Another bad thing that happened was that I was walking down the steps of campbell hall today when my feet slipped out from under me and I put a couple of nasty gashes in my brand new phone... That's why I really can't have nice things... I just ruin them. But luckily I was able to replace it easily :) and not to mention... I got a spiffy new case. :) So thats when things picked up and showed me how many amazing people i have around to me to help me out... and to show me that they don't like to see me upset...<br /><br />Then went over over to roll to tell shawn I got a new bike... talked to him for a little bit and made me glad to have new friends... and vegetarian friends too :)<br /><br />now just going to do some positive/negative drawings for my design class... I have no idea what I'm doing. gooooood luck to me. :)Nataliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10867360120617266317noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2299475964289064790.post-31615632904104350852008-10-20T13:24:00.003-04:002008-10-20T13:33:52.351-04:0010 Things to accomplish before June 2009I graduate in June 2009... hopefully. so I've compiled a list of possible things to do around Ohio State University and Columbus before that glorious day comes.<br /><br />Here are some tentative things to accomplish... some serious and some not.<br /><br />1.)

So I was looking at <a href="http://w-houses.blogspot.com/2008/03/10-things-ill-do-before-i-get-married.html">an older post</a> and read it over again. The list written out was one about stuff I want to do before I get married and I feel that one of the things on the list I have done already. Number eight talks about how I want to make a large mistake and learn from it. I feel like parts of my life have been a mistake, or are an ongoing constant mistake. This past year, I opened myself up to a person of the opposite sex only to be completely burnt and left alone. I cannot see myself trusting him again. If I could not trust him romantically, how could I trust him as a friend?<br /><br />Either way, I feel that without that experience I would be still wanting a boyfriend or yearning for that certain male presence in my life. I am fine without a boyfriend and have been in the past... but with this guy I think it was that I really wanted to be touched and loved physically (whether it be by holding hands or kissing). He felt that I was just getting too attached when he was wanting anything but. We patched things up a little bit to where we were civilized towards one another after weeks of not speaking to each other (because, let's face it, he was a complete and utter sissy), and I still had feelings for him. I knew they were completely over on his side when I saw him before I left for my six week vacation this summer and he high-fived me instead of giving a hug. Recently I've been burned by him again by what seems like a lie. He probably, I'm 90% sure, did not mean to never make me want to date again but he hurt me to the point where I wish he would move so I wouldn't have to be in pain anymore seeing him.<br /><br />It may sound harsh and a bit rash but I'm fine with deleting a person off of facebook, myspace, my phone, ripping tickets and memories because its the only way I can completely get over a person, male or female. I just don't see the sense in keeping the person around because I am constantly tempted to look at pictures or reminisce about old times. Also seeing them with a significant other would just eat me up inside, whether or not it was personal or not. <br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">So basically</span>, back to what this post was originally about, I've learned to keep some things to myself. That, to me, is huge. I'm usually a very open person in the sense that I will let most anyone into my life. I always felt like I was ostracized and not accepted when I was younger so I never wanted anyone to <u>ever</u> feel that same way. <b>I now know that there are some things that you should keep to yourself. Some things that are meant to be kept pure and just for one other soul and not someone that will burn it with their hands, words, and actions.</b> I will never let anyone burn me like that again. I am currently being pursued... which is completely lovely and pure... but I know my boundaries and I have stated them... I am human and I know what I am capable of and what I am not capable of. We'll see how this goes... one day at a time.<br /><br />But poetry has struck me as a way to cope: <br /><br /><i>untitled #2</i><br />Your smile was never for me.<br />It was always meant for someone else.<br />Nonetheless, it tore at my flesh<br />and made my bones shake.<br /><br />It was all too soon.<br />the kisses were not real, just deception.<br />A whirlwind of hope and imagination<br />of things that I lusted for. <br /><br />Brittle you made me,<br />My body is no more my own. <br />You took it like a property,<br />burning what was pure and good.<br /><br />Your words like confused darts<br />quaked and wobbled my world. <br />Behind coal glasses layed a serpent<br />waiting to watch a planet burn.Nataliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10867360120617266317noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2299475964289064790.post-38768192213773987762008-09-22T18:05:00.001-04:002008-09-22T18:06:05.082-04:00Someone turns 21 tomorrow...<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_WzBZIQGvbTw/SNgWt_AYgJI/AAAAAAAAARQ/BesTkvKvSyc/s1600-h/Photo+276.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_WzBZIQGvbTw/SNgWt_AYgJI/AAAAAAAAARQ/BesTkvKvSyc/s400/Photo+276.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5248970344963276946" /></a><br />and its me! got my ID today... going to Union tonight with Sclary and friends :)Nataliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10867360120617266317noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2299475964289064790.post-17931671109937007552008-09-19T00:06:00.005-04:002008-09-19T11:06:03.074-04:00If anyone wants to get on my good side...You will get me <a href="http://www.x-tremescooters.com/gas_mopeds/xm155/xm155.html">this moped scooter</a>:<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_WzBZIQGvbTw/SNMlZY4qs-I/AAAAAAAAAQ4/TCbv59w1--E/s1600-h/xm155_pink-angle.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_WzBZIQGvbTw/SNMlZY4qs-I/AAAAAAAAAQ4/TCbv59w1--E/s400/xm155_pink-angle.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5247579108923847650" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_WzBZIQGvbTw/SNMlZepWD7I/AAAAAAAAARA/p6DyOyLU2wM/s1600-h/xm155_pink-front.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_WzBZIQGvbTw/SNMlZepWD7I/AAAAAAAAARA/p6DyOyLU2wM/s400/xm155_pink-front.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5247579110470193074" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_WzBZIQGvbTw/SNMlZk7lr1I/AAAAAAAAARI/iRIxuTadl_A/s1600-h/xm155_pink-side.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_WzBZIQGvbTw/SNMlZk7lr1I/AAAAAAAAARI/iRIxuTadl_A/s400/xm155_pink-side.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5247579112157327186" /></a><br /><br />I probably need something more than 150cc if I'm going to want it to be highway certified...<br>More like 200cc+ :)<br>and I'm not usually a fan of pink... but <b>damn</b>... that scooter is wicked hot :)Nataliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10867360120617266317noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2299475964289064790.post-54371605617298618352008-09-18T14:11:00.003-04:002008-09-18T14:22:42.005-04:00Moving onDo you ever feel like you have so many ideas but you can't figure out a way to execute them? I definitely feel a little bit of pressure to start on some of my ideas... <br /><br />Life has been kind of a whirl lately. Getting back from Saranac definitely hits you when you realize that people aren't working for the same thing. Saranac is bittersweet in the sense that it is a Utopia that has the best people in the world there but it doesn't prepare you for the things and battles you'll have coming home. Just lately my life has been consumed by work and playing catch-up. I've moved locations on campus and in the midst of it all, have realized how much useless crap I have... so I purged about 70% of it. Thats a horrible statistic, but whatever. I still need to get rid of a ton of stuff, so when I have time I'll give it away to Goodwill or Salvation Army. <br /><br />Only about 5 more days until I turn 21. What a weird time in my life. Last year I thought it was so weird that I wasn't a teenager anymore and now I'm just weirded out how quickly time flies by in your lifetime. I remember so many things from years ago that are so vivid they might as well have been yesterday. I'm excited though to be able to order a drink with a meal or just go out and not be judged or whatnot. Having a double birthday party with my friend, Andrew, so that should be fun! :) Life is good.Nataliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10867360120617266317noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2299475964289064790.post-29996790978339919992008-09-02T18:47:00.002-04:002008-09-02T18:48:52.820-04:00Welcome Back :)Hey guys I'm back from vacation.. I've been in the process of moving soooo needless to say my computer access has been unreliable (i have a desktop that I have to lug around). <br /><br />And the apartment I was looking at fell through so I have no where to really live. I've been crashing at a friends until I get a place. bleh. <br /><br />I'll definitely give you a bigger update later.. but for now.. I'm back!Nataliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10867360120617266317noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2299475964289064790.post-58501764313671378642008-07-12T13:29:00.003-04:002008-07-12T13:38:52.873-04:00So BeachySo I was really excited to find the Saturday9's meme to be beach themed.... since that is one of the things that makes me the most happy! :)<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">1. Do you plan to be at the beach this summer?</span><br />Heck yes, I will in Oceanside/Carlsbad this coming monday and Taylar and I are going to be total beach bums :) Alright, we'll do some surfing :)<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">2. Do you have a favorite beach?</span><br />Hmmm not really because I've been mostly to lakes and not beaches. I do love the beach off of Lido, Italy though. Beautiful horizon and good memories with my family <br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">3. How old were you on your first beach trip?</span><br />REAAALLLY little. Little enough that I had to go to the Hospital because I ate everything I found on the beach because I didn't know better. Don't worry, I don't do that anymore. :D<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">4. Did your folks own or rent a cottage at the beach?</span><br />We did up in Canada a couple of times, but we're not that ritzy to have a beach house. I wish!<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">5. Have you or would you bring your kids to the same beaches you went to as a kid?</span><br />I would love to! This is my plan if I ever actually do have children... They are probably going to start swimming before they walk, they will own a surfboard before they own a bike, and they will probably be able to hold their breath longer in an underwater challenge than on land. In essence... they will be complete little water babies. :)<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">6. What type of bathing suit do you wear at the beach?</span><br />I'm on a mission right now to find the perfect retro 50's skirted swimdress in red and I found two (<a href="http://www.pinupgirlclothing.com/skirted-swimsuit-retro-swimsuit.html">1</a> and <a href="http://www2.victoriassecret.com/commerce/application/prodDisplay/?namespace=productDisplay&origin=onlineProductDisplay.jsp&event=display&prnbr=9B-221147&page=1&cgname=OSSWMOPSZZZ&rfnbr=158">2</a>) but they are both in the $80+ range. boo :-\. I like bikinis but I don't have the body yet for it. Plus I like a little modesty and freedom to move around without worrying if you're going to pop out of your top when a wave comes crashing in or when you're about to dive for that sand volleyball. I'm not just a lay out type of beach girl. I like moving :)<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">7. Do you have favorite food you like to eat at the shore?</span><br />I like to stay hydrated. But cookouts are always fun :) so bbq food... well actually more fresh cool fruity stuff to cool a hot day <br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">8. Do you have a favorite drink you like at the shore?</span><br />water! :)<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">9. When is the next time you will be beach bound?</span><br />MONDAY!!!! AHHH!!!!Nataliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10867360120617266317noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2299475964289064790.post-7992938193996890152008-07-10T13:08:00.001-04:002008-07-10T13:09:24.468-04:00Leavin' on a jet plane :)well I know when I'll be back again... but I'm traveling!<br /><center><br /><p><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v350/nataliak/travel.jpg" /><br />I will be traveling starting July 14th to August 22nd.
