It's Just Me, Silly!

So I have a new website-

http://www.freewebs.com/kayteeandcj/

this website was made because CJ and I are engaged, we just bought our first house, and we are busy with the hustle- and- bustle of life!

I just graduated with my bachelor in Education with a triple minor in social studies, language arts, and early childhood. My student teaching is officially over and I'm gunna sub until I find a job.

CJ and I will be married in the summer of 2010 and we are thinking of a destination wedding- somewhere tropical with just close immediate family. We will also have our reception in Michigan.

Sooo...

Summer has OFFICIALLY started. I got my grades and I got the highest GPA of my college career! i feel like I finally know what I'm doing! I have also applied to the substitute teaching program for Clarkston, and I have done that two days now. It kinda sucks because I'm just getting into it and the year is almost over- oh well, at least I got those two days.

Friendships and relationships are a bit more than to be desired. I keep in touch with some sisters, but not all :( I miss them already. People from back home are being a bit shady- but it's hard to come home and just be free and ready to hang out when people have their schedules that they have become accustomed to. Still- it is going to make for an interesting summer- perhaps borderline boring. Oh well, at least I start with my boys on THURSDAY!

Anyways- I just thought it would be a good time for an update. Not too much going on with me, just killin time in good ol Clarkston, MI. and I miss K-Zoo already- anyone who is thinking of going, call me I would love to join- i need a break! haha

leave me a message or comment plz- I never get them anymore and it makes me sad :(

My live...

Fri, 26 Jan 2007 19:29:25 GMT

So... I have had quite the week. This week was filled with ups and downs, but to be honest, more downs.

In my english class, I had to write 20 positive and 20 negative events in my life. My move to WMU could have been both. It is such a hard thing to move somewhere, leave everything and everyone i know and love, and live with complete strangers. I didn't know ANYONE freshman year, i was alone surrounded by fake girls who didn't care if I existed. Now, 3 years later I have a completely different life. I am surrounded by friends, sisters, and co-workers that care about me and it finally seems like I have my life together. I have done a lot of growing and a lot of changing and maturing in the past 3 years, but I am proud I have made it this far. I am SO CLOSE to my life long goal, I can just taste it!

It's hard to go home sometimes, because I want to tell everyone what I've been up too, but it's hard for some of my friends to hear how my life has been because not all of them got the great opportunity to go away for school like I have. I am lucky to be where I am now.

On the plus side, I got a paper back with 100%!! AND the teacher said "well written, deep thoughts" as comments-- score!

I guess I better go, Dezi and I are going to Hobby Lobby so I can get stuff for a project...

<3 Kaytee

p.s. One week and I will be home to see my faves! *miss u baby*

Merry Christmas!

Mon, 25 Dec 2006 16:32:59 GMT

Merry Christmas bitchezzz! I hope everyone had a great time this year.

P.S. 6 days until my 21st Birthday....u know it's gunna rock out! haha

So, just cause im bored, ima post what I got for Christmas:
From the parentals and siblings: Adorable gap fuzzy hood black coat, fleece penguin sheets (my fave animal!) My Britney Fantasy perfume, a sisers picture frame engraved, sketchers black shoes, and on and on

CJ gave me fuzzy sketchers boots, a sweater, 2 pair of jeans, a $50 gift card to gap :) an Elf book, and the Nanny season 2!

So- pretty much, i banked this Christmas lol

I hope everyone else was as lucky- not to mention birthday is in 6 days!!!

I'm out...

Worst semester ever...ugh

Thu, 21 Dec 2006 06:28:49 GMT

So my grades this semester were horendus...ugh. I did well in 2 classes, but got Cs in 2 classes...so my GPA is pathetic and not the 3.0 I wanted....jeeze

So i pretty much suck at life. My home life is OK, but I am ready to be back at school. My mom is trying to ruin my holidays, because she is in denial of the fact that I have 2 families now- I know CJ and I aren't engaged or married, but his family is still important to me and I like being with them on the holidays too. Ugh, it isn't fair. Not enough hours in the day i guess.

So, my break has been pretty laid back. I have spent a lot of time with friends and family and it's amazing. I normally work like crazy over these breaks, but I felt like this past semester was so stressful that i wanted a break. What a good decision lol.

anyways, Just wanted to update...My birthday is on December 31st so I am getting excited for that, i am having a party on the 30th so we can celebrate at midnight...leme know if u want to go!! (if anyone reads this...lol)

meh...im out

Fri, 03 Nov 2006 20:41:37 GMT

So, i told the Phi Class that I would update after pledge retreat- it's been a while, but here it is girls! lol. All in All, I had an amazing time, these girls never cease to amaze me. I am so glad they all are as excited about Pi Phi as I am, and I just hope that they keep the fire burning, because it makes me sad when Pi Phis lose energy. I had no idea that these girls were so strong- they have been through so much, I look up to them because their struggles have made them so strong.

I love my sisters...all of em!

So...C.J. is being stupid. I asked him to come out this weekend, and it was last minute, but he still totally could. He had gotten some extra money from working on a car, so that covered gas, and his reason to why he didnt want to come out was because he had plans with some stupid guy to work on his car. I guess I know where his priorities are. It's kinda funny how I can drop everything in my life to be with him, and he totally doesn't care and DEFINETLY doesn't do the same for me. Cute...

So, I'm feeling pretty good now, since i got replaced...ugh this weekend is gunna be bad and it was supposed to go so good! My midterms were over, i was supposed to get crazy and all i feel like now is sleeping or complaining. pretty dumb, i know

so yeah...life is kinda crazy right now, leave one i guess, even tho no one ever does (hopefully my sisters will be able to cheer me up :) )

My New Lil

Fri, 20 Oct 2006 13:35:42 GMT

Well....the time has finally come! I've got my little! After being heartbroken last semester when I couldn't have a little because of the money, I was able to have one this semester after saving all summer for her! Her name is Ashley and she is so darn cute! I hope I will make a good big- hopefully as good of a big as mine was- I heart u Liza!

Anyways- C.J. and I celebrated our 5 year anniversary on September 28th and he surprised me by showing up like 4 hours early with red roses and my present and a bottle of wine! He is becoming quite the romancer! For real though- I am so proud of him and how he has just grown in front of my eyes. Our relationship has changed so much since the days of fighting and arguing- we are getting along quite well now. I feel like we are brand new people but we have grown together and it's great.

Anyways- I better go. I have school work to do before getting the New Member Retreat put together after work too, so, comment if you read this- i feel like no one does :(

peace!

Shared Feelings

Tue, 03 Oct 2006 13:12:19 GMT

I feel as though my life is spinning out of control. I put too much on my plate this semester, and normally I can handle it, but with 3 exams and 1 paper due this week, i can't seem to catch up. I found this entry in a friend of mine's journal and I can't help but feel the same way. Well, here goes :

"I don't know why i've been down so lately. All my life consists of is working, classes, and Pi Phi. No me time, nothing. I understand that I put everything on myself, i'm just so stressed out, really. I don't know when i'm going to graduate, I don't know where i'm going to do my internship, I wish I was smarter, I wish I looked different, I miss my mama to PIECES, I wish I wasn't so tired all the time, and I wish that I could just cry and cry on someone's shoulder, and them not think i'm a lunitic. I get like this sometimes, where it's too much to handle. I know it's a lot. I hate being a burden on people, and not being the normal happy cheery person I am. I don't know. What I need Is to destress, something to get my frusteration out, and I won't stop for a very long time!!!"

So yeah...things will get better, i know, but for now, i will struggle to make it through.

My life...

Fri, 15 Sep 2006 13:41:41 GMT

Well, things have been hectic to say the least, but I am excited things have started picking up! I was getting bored at the end of the summer waiting for school to start.

So, things have been going well. The new apartment is working out great, and I absolutely love my roomate, I think her and I are at the same places in our lives, so we get along well. Plus, we share a lot of the same morals, including religion :) I love when C.J. comes out to visit, cause he cooks for me. I LOVE that boy so much, he amazes me more every day. I feel bad because I've been such a bad girlfriend this week because I have been so busy I don't have a lot of time to talk to him, but I think he understands.

Pi Phi has been A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. I have been so tired because of the commitment, but it is worth it. I get to spend time with my sisters, and with formal rush, we are expanding our sisterhood- how exciting! I miss spending time with my big tho, we are both a little more busy than we were last year. My favorite part is that all of my sisters love C.J., he seems to get along with them so well, and I am just extatic because they all love him.

I miss home often. I don't miss the acctual house i dont think, but the people. I know my parents miss me when im gone, and it's hard to think that we are so far away from each other living our lives seperately. We have lived together and our lives have mesched for so long, now it has completely changed. Oh well, i like being independant. I miss my family tho- my bro and I acctually got along this summer, and my sister and I didnt do to bad- makes it harder to leave i guess. My friends there are living there lives too, without me, and it makes me sad. Rheannon's little man Matthew is getting so big, without me there to see him grow. I'm a proud auntee. Hopefully I can make it home for halloween to see him trick or treat (even tho he will be like 4 months lol). I miss my Jiffie- I feel like we aren't the same people when I'm gone. We barely talk, and it makes me sad. we are both busy people, but I can't help but be sad when I think i only talk to my best friend like once a week. Well, at least she is gunna come visit :). I'm glad the b/fs get along too...makes me happy :)

Well...i'm at work so I guess I better do something productive with my live, and this is the only time I will have to do homework this weekend because of recruitment so...yeah....better get on that, eh?

i'm out....byyyyye

Welcome Back to Western Michigan University!

Wed, 30 Aug 2006 14:57:34 GMT

I'm a dork...i know lol.

So....I'm back at school. I am excited- all my friends and sisters here are amazing- we have already made memories and I haven't even been here a week yet.
However, I am so sad to leave Clarkston. I had such an amazing summer with all of my friends and boyfriend. Thanks to everyone who made it memerable :)

I'm sure this year will present itself with many challenges and problems- especially with a new apartment to take care of (I have to learn to cook for myself!) but I know my support system will be there for me and I can make it thru- maybe even with a good grade point :)

I am living in Kendall Manor Apartments- feel free to come visit :)

Thu, 01 Jun 2006 21:47:10 GMT

So, My summer has been crazy so far- 2 trips to canada have left me broke, although i work every day (have not had a day off since mothers day...) so yeah....just thought i'd shout out to the peepas that read this- probably no one hahaha

Jennifer and I are still tearing up clarkston (and sterling heights, and warren, and pontiac....hahaha) Rheanon is due in early July, and I am trying to make time to see all of my friends- Pi Phi sisters included, but that means traveling

Hopefully K-ZOO June 21st- can't wait!

Thu, 18 May 2006 23:26:52 GMT

So, pretty much this summer has been ok. I have worked a lot- there was 1 trip to canada so far, plenty more are being planned. I wanted to have a lot of fun this summer, and I feel like I have, but not as much as I could be. I work a lot, and I am desperately trying to lose weight so my days comsist of working out, showering, and working.

CJ and I have been a little distant- I think we are growing apart, it makes me sad considering he is my first love. oh well....things will work out in the end.

Meanwhile, I miss all of my sisters and Kzoo friends to death...

However- I am having a great time in C-Town with my old school friends and my bestest Jiff...summer is never the same without them!

anyways- hit up my cell or w/e if ya wanna talk or hangout- im home all summer! lol

Tue, 25 Apr 2006 20:47:37 GMT

As I finish my 2nd year at Western, I reflect on the times I've had here. Wow, I sound like a cheesy flyer lol. I have thought a lot about myself and this year tho. I am kindov excited for summer and dreading it at the same time. I am looking for this summer to be exciting, and productive. I need to make money (I better with 3 jobs!) and I need to stay healthy and active. I am hoping I can get my life together in the aspect of health and intellect. My goals include staying active through the YMCA and my membership to a country club with an amazing pool, eating healthy and making good choices at fast food places, and to read at least 1 "smart" book a month. I want to learn how to be a better person lol.

Looks like my summer is going to be very busy with healthy food, books, exercising, and CANADA!!! HAHAHAHAH im so excited! and of coarse trips to go visit my fave sisters will be planned into my weekends as well (st. joe here I come!! I heart you Jaimi and Renee and Amber and Heather!mu ha ha)

Peace for now, Im almost otta work and I have to keep studying- tomorrow @ 2:30 I will be a JUNIOR!! Yay!

*KAYTEE*

Lovely Letter

Thu, 20 Apr 2006 21:59:15 GMT

In a few days...

A year has passed, and now we stand on the brink of returning to a world where we are surrounded by the paradox of everything, yet nothing being the same. In a few days, we will reluctantly give our hugs, and fighting the tears, say goodbye to the people who were once just names on a sheet of paper to return to people that we hugged and fought tears to say goodbye to before we left. We will leave our best friends to return to our best friends. We will go back to places we came from, and go back to the same things we did last summer and every summer before. We will come into town on that same familiar road, and even though it has been months, it will seem like only yesterday.

As you walk into your old bedroom, every emotion will pass through you as you reflect on the way your life has changed and the person you have become. You suddenly realize that things that were most important to you a year ago won't seem to matter so much anymore, and the things you hold highest now, no one at home will completely understand. Who will you call first? Where are you going to work? Who will be at the party on Saturday night? What has everyone been up to? Who from school will you keep in touch with? How long before you actually start missing people barging in without calling or knocking? Who will get breadsticks with you at three in the morning? How long until you adjust to sleeping in a room by yourself?

*Then you realize how much things have changed. You realize the hardest part of college is balancing the two completely different worlds you now live in, trying desperately to hold on to everything, all the while trying to figure out what you have to leave behind. In the matter of one day's traveling time, we will leave our world of living next door to our best friends, walking across campus to eat, instant messenger, 8:00 classes, and perpetual procrastination to a world that will seem foreign to us, despite the fact that we have lived in it for years.*

But it is different now... we now know the meaning of true friendship. We know whom we have kept in touch with over the past year and whom we hold dearest to our hearts. We've left our high school worlds to deal with the real world. We have had our hearts broken. We have fallen in love. We've helped our best friends through the toughest times of their lives, something their even best friends at home couldn't be there for. We've stayed up all night just to be there for a friend. We've partied the night away, doing stupid stuff, but we were always there for each other afterwards. There have been times when we've felt so helpless being hours away from home when we know our families or friends need us most, and there are times when we know we have made a difference.

A few days from now, we will leave. A few days from now, we will take down our pictures and pack up our clothes. No more going next door to do nothing for hours on end. We will leave our friends whose random emails and phone calls will bring us to laughter and tears this summer. We will take our memories and dreams and put them away for now, saving them for our return to this world.

A few days from now, we will dig deep inside to find the strength and conviction to adjust to change and still keep each other close. And somehow, in someway, we will find our place between these two worlds.

In a few days... are you ready?

I "borrowed" this wonderful passage from Roxie- It really affected me, to the point of tears acctually. I have really thought about a lot of things, and one of the most important ones is how I lost some bonds and friendships with some of my sisters. I've treated some of my closest sisters with disreguard and I've taken them for granted. i don't know why, perhaps because I have been so busy and stressed with school, but that is no excuse. These girls are my SISTERS. I'm sorry girls, I promise I will be a better sister. A better friend.

last week of school

Thu, 20 Apr 2006 13:23:03 GMT

So, today is the last day of my classes, and then finals next week. I can't believe my sophmore year is comming to an end so soon. I have been so overwhelmed and stressed out this week- and I feel like I can't do a lot of things right. It's good that my true friends have been there for me though, even though I am such a pain. CJ has been amazing through this whole thing, and I'm glad we got the chance to really talk things through. I can't wait to be done with school and start my life with him. I have to go, time for more studying before class....I'll prolly update when I'm done with finals, that will be the first time I can breath!

Canada in 2 weeks- I'm Sooo excited!! <3 u Jiffie

Easter

Mon, 17 Apr 2006 19:01:18 GMT

So, I am back in the swing of things after Easter. My weekend had it's ups and downs for sure. Jennifer and I had a good time shopping, drinking, and playing cards lol. I was kinda crabby on Fri, but i get moody- what can u do...I saw Rheannon Friday afternoon- I love that girl. We have a lot in common, and we had a great time sitting in the sun and chatting. I took cute pictures of her belly- she's due in early July.

CJ and I hung out Friday night- his buddy Mike and his girlfriend Jackie came over to work on the car. He told me it would take like MAYBE an hour...3 hours later he stops cause there is too much to do. I liked Jackie, but I was home to see Cj....i hate when that happends. He made me an easter basket with fruit- apples, bananas, pears, oranges in it, and threw in a little chocolate and peeps- MY HERO! lol

ill post more later, gotta go~

Mondane Monday

Mon, 03 Apr 2006 18:35:27 GMT

So...it's Monday morning- bad right? oh no, it gets worse! It's raining, and humid, and nasty outside. I got up early so I could look nice today (cause normally on mondays I look like shit) and i did my hair, make-up and I dressed decent...so it rains and my hair is frizzy and wavy and my makeup is messed up. DAMN MONDAYS!

w/e tho...I had a good weekend, it was initiation for the baby angels :) (a.k.a Upsilon Class) They are a really good class, and they all get along well. I'm excited that they are actives now :) They acctually chose certain members to give honorary rewards to, and they chose me as "unselfish" lol if they only knew! no, just kidding. I do my best. It is really flattering though because last year our class nominated my big as unselfish, so maybe when I take a little, it can go down the line!

I am pretty busy today, and greek week is quickly approaching, so I am gunna go, but I just wanted to update and leave some congrats to the Upsilon Class

*Kaytee*

Weekend is here

Fri, 31 Mar 2006 15:59:59 GMT

So, I had quite the busy week. I was nominated for Judicial Board for the greek community, and I went to an interview on Wednesday. My big called me Thursday and told me I had gotten the position- so that was good news, but unfortunately Carolyn didn't make it, and that made my good news seem not so good. Pi Phi has been going well, We are initiating the Upsilon class this weekend :) and Greek Week is next week so I will be even MORE busy! I'm really glad I met all of those girls, I feel like I have made some really good friends.

C.J. and I have been doing primarily well, it is hard being so far apart, especially because we are both so busy, but I know we can make it- even with everyone doubting us- cause it doesnt matter what they think, we are in L O V E.

School is crazy as ever- I have to get a 3.0 so I can have cheaper rent- that is gunna be an endeavor! The good news is though that Amy is gunna be my roomate and I love her to death. I think this is going to work out quite well.

Alrighty, I better ger back to work, I have homework to do...I can't wait for easter weekend tho...that is the next time I will see C.J. (3 weeks is a long time)

I'm outie* (haha gotta love clueless!)

Kaytee

Yay!

Wed, 29 Mar 2006 04:57:16 GMT

Happy 4 1/2 year anniversary to CJ and I! I know its not a big deal, but today- March 28th, 2006 signifies four and a half years that CJ and I have been dating...

...quite an accomplishment if i do say so :)

Mon, 20 Mar 2006 18:22:14 GMT

So...I haven't updated in a while. My life has been chaos.

My family and I aren't getting along, and I hate it. I don't think people know how sensitive I am. My parents need to realize that I don't stand up to them like my sister does, I don't talk back- I sit there and absorb all of the yelling and repremanding. To be honest, it's pretty sad when your parents can make you so upset you feel sick to your stomach and you can't stop crying. Whatever...

CJ and I are getting excited for this weekend- DATEPARTY! I am excited for him to meet my sisters, cause I'm pretty sure they all want to meet him :) We got me a dress this weekend, and he will dress up- which im excited for, cause he always looks adorable! Him and I seem to be doing well, we had an amazing week together once we left my house and my family...

I miss all of my friends back home, I was supposed to see Rheannon this weekend, and I got so lost in my own misery that it just didn't happen. Jennifer and I are talking, but we both lead busy lives- hopefully we are gunna chill up in jackson easter weekend :)

Pi Phi has been good, I am glad Liza and I are so close, she is probably one of my closest friends here, and she makes GREAT big sister :) I am excited for all of us sisters to get together and flaunt our dates this weekend, i can not wait!

Im gunna go, i have homework of coarse, leave me some love people

It's Just Me, Silly!
