First update of 2004...because that matters so much. I made a good amount of resolutions, I won't bore you with the details. I know them and that's what's important.

New years eve at JMC's was a very good time. What a splendid display of fireworks...until of course one tipped over and we all ran for our lives. It was a night that I will remember and I'm glad I spent it where I did with the people I was with.

...trying to think of a good transition here but I am not coming up with anything...SO I'll just jump into it: Tonight I thoroughly (however you spell that) enjoyed myself with Lare-bear and Budd, as always. Our little sing-alongs in the All-Tima really top my "fun things to do" list. Really makes me appreciate non-obligatory frienships. Just good old fashion spontaneous fun.

ugh, 1:00am and I gotta work at 11.

Wow. I LOVE being home. A few things have changed though.

1) Nashua is turning into Fast Food Nation. SO many disgusting food chains on pretty much every exit

2)Christophers is slowly but surely turning into Scene Headquarters thumbs down

3) Nashua is a lot bigger then I remember...where did everyone GO?!

Oh well. I LOVE CHRISTMAS!!

I came to realize tonight, just how important friendships are. And ya know, no matter the distance, the drama, the boys, the differnt styles, the different paths we choose to go down...friends will be friends. And if any of those things tear people apart, well then that's where the friendship is expended.

But for those who don't let those things come between them, those are the friendships that are the strongest. The one's you know are for real.

Tonight I almost walked past your door.
I'm so glad I didn't.

Fri, 21 Nov 2003 06:18:40 GMT

Wow. College is a never ending chain of revelations and self-actualizations. Not that I'm complaining in the least. I've learned so much about myself since I've been here.

This is what I wish I knew when I was still a Senior
* soak up all the time you have with your mom and dad. They are what will remain concrete in your life next year when everthing seems unstable.
* Prepare to learn more about yourself then you could imagine, even if you think you know yourself inside out.
* Don't let anyone or anything stop you from going where your heart wants to take you.
* Spend time with your pets, you'll miss them SO much!!
* Don't worry so much about which school has the best track-record or what profession you want to seek out just yet. Be concerned with getting to know yourself; Without that knowledge your grades won't do shit for you.
* Stive to succeed, be prepared to fail.
* Don't let the fear of the unknown hold you back, but let it push you foward.
* Never, ever lose touch with who you are, and who you want to become. That is the founding of what will keep you sane throughout this transition.

I cannot wait for THANKSGIVING!!! Home in Nashua for a few days. Good food. Family. Friends. CHRISTMAS SHOPPING!! I love it. All of it!
I still got love for the TEAM and I hope that what has happened at college has not ripped our unity to shreds.

Be patient with me, for I am still learning.

Even If You Don't Care

Sun, 26 Oct 2003 20:06:05 GMT

This weekend was absolutely amazing.

17 girls. A lake house. A bon-fire. Diner Breakfast. Amazing stories.
Scary movies. Amazing times.

You can all have your opinions, and I'm sure you do, but one thing that is FO SHO is this:
From the outside looking in you could never understand, and from the inside looking out we could never explain.
Remember that next time you go to make a judgment.

It's not the sorority that makes the girls, it's the girls that make the sorority.
<3darc

Just in case you were wondering...

Fri, 10 Oct 2003 04:49:25 GMT

It's funny when you know that someone doesn't like you, or the things you do, yet they would NEVER say it to your face.

Oh well.

Pledging is going awesome. My fellow pledgies are the seriously so great! This experience is so amazing and it's teaching me so much about myself (Including how to manage my time!

So game 2 was a let down, but it's aright. GOTTA GET DAMON BACK IN THE GAME!!! AHHH! I <3 # 18!! BOSTON HERE WE COME!!

GO SOX!

<3darc

Tue, 07 Oct 2003 06:17:55 GMT

YEAH RED SOX!!!!!!!!!!

AMAZING game

Riot

Unessesary tear gas...sorry to those inflicted, but i mean a riot=tear gas

PEOPLE EVERYWHERE

Fucking UNH is AWESOME!!!!!!!

No Regrets.

Sat, 04 Oct 2003 06:27:31 GMT

So you might say the inevitable happened: I rushed a sororiety.

I LOVE IT.

I am CHI OMEGA and for all of you who base your opinions on what sororieties are on that GOD-AWFUL show, here's a hint: IT'S THE WORST PORTRAYAL EVERRR

The Greek System is actually an AMAZING way to get invovled and really become a part of the school community. I've already met AMAZING people that I never would have if I didn't rush. Unlike anyone else from nashua can say, I KNEW NO ONE i've hung out with tonight or the past week for that matter. I met them ALL from rush and it's a great feeling to have met these girls out of my own will. I plan on NOT CHANGING who am I whatsoever. The two houses I wanted actually FOUGHT OVER ME! I am bringing who I am and what I have to offer to Chi Omega.

UNH also has a STRICT no hazing law. All Sororiety houses are dry. So I hope that clears up ANY and ALL Judgments and disciminations you had towards the Greek System.

I am SO happy that I did this and I already know that I will have no regrets.
I hope you all can also find such a satisfying experience in your precious years at college...or wherever life brings you.
<333 Darci

PS: I've heard enough negative commentary towards Sororities so please, if that's what you are going to comment with, don't waste your time.

And she washes out.

Tue, 30 Sep 2003 04:58:50 GMT

So I went home this weekend. I stepped out of the life I'm begining here and back into the one I left behind. It certainly was awkward at first. Everything hit me all at once: The smell of my house being so familiar but at the same time...different, seeing my family getting along and functioning without me,how much I missed my kitty, going into christopher's where EVERYTHING is the same except the people who work there (and we now sell donuts that have 540 calories in them).

The best part about my experience was that I realized my home will always be there willing to accept me. My family will love me unconditionally and support me no matter what.

It feels as though I'm living two lives right now. When I'm here, I'm okay, but when I'm home I don't want to leave. I woke up sunday morning and I was depressed. I knew that even though I was home...I had to leave. It rips a person apart.

One thing is for sure: I have to make sure that through all of this I become the person I want to be. I don't care who agrees with me or who thinks what of me. This is my life. I am trying desperately to discover who I am and I'll tell you, it's not easy to do. Being home already made me aware of how I've grown just in these four weeks.

I know that if i couldn't write...I'd be dying here.

That's all for now.
<3darc

Tue, 16 Sep 2003 04:35:18 GMT

So this is my Vow:
There is just too much space to feel crowded here. From here on out I refuse to let drama bog me down. If I begin to feel the weight of drama, I'm just going to walk away. There are SO many people here, SO many things to do. Why in the world would I let myself get wrapped up in the same shit that I was wrapped up in, in high school? God only knows.

Here is my dilemma:
Friends define a person. When someone calls my friend a scumbag, it's as bad as calling me a scumbag. So please, keep your opinions to yourself and I will do the same.

This is not an uncertain inquiry. It is a factual statement.

We Remember.

I'm not going to lie..

Tue, 09 Sep 2003 04:39:21 GMT

Well despite everyones opinions of UNH, here is what I've experienced this first week here:

* Absolutely beautiful campus
* Bells that ring every half hour make the scene that much more enjoyable
* Incredibly friendly people, especially the girls in my dorm.
* Dedicated, caring, interesting, and intelligent professors make the learning experience absolutely eloquent!

College is an experience where I will mess up, succeed, have fun, have regrets, meet people, lose friends, learn immence amounts of knowlege, learn immence amounts about myself, and begin to take control of my life.
Everyone has a different experience, I want to own this. I want to look back in four years and know that I took my college years and made the best of them. I'm not asking anyone to agree or disagree, I'm telling you that this is how it's going to be. Today I learned this in my English class:

I need to "speak with conviction" and when I question myself or speak without confidence behind my words, I'm only "inviting you on the bandwagon of my own uncertainties"

I hope that this has been enlightening, it sure has been for me.

The cycle just doesn't end.

It's the same old High School Drama.

Only now we are in college, so it's College Drama.

MOOSE ATTACK AND NANOOK INVASION

Tue, 02 Sep 2003 03:05:51 GMT

So even though Lauren INSISTS that she was the laughing stock of the university today, I beg to differ. Here is why:
I was very hungry around 6:30 and so I call up whitaahh and laur and they are eating at Holloway. So I lug my butt over there, wait on line just to GET IN the room. All I wanted was pasta and of course the line was INSANE so I finally get some food and i all I need is a goddamn fork. OF COURSE there aren't any forks though. SO I finally dig one up and sit down and start shoving the food in my mouth. well on maybe my second or third bite The tray slipped off the table and INTO MY LAP. What was it again that I was eating? Oh yeah, PASTA! Well It wasn't that I was embarassed, I think whitney took care of that for me, but I WAS PISSED! I didn't have time to go back for more food casue I had a meeting at 7. I still haven't had a GOOD meal here.

We had quite the moose encounter today. Damn.
Goodnight all, class tomorrow.

A change of scenery

Mon, 01 Sep 2003 14:42:28 GMT

Well I'm here at UNH. Things have been pretty okay so far. The party scene has been very fun. Last night my girls and I went to a FRAT dance party and, if I remember correctly STARTED the dancing.

MY ROOM MATE IS A MOOSE! shit. seriously I tried so hard, to like mesh with her and unfortunately now she thinks we are like best friends. She was mean to me last night after I invited her out so effff that.

I will be mailing things to people soon, I really like doing things like that so PLEASE leave me your address!

My info is as follows:

Phone #: 603-295-4272

PS- I miss Benji tremendously and I hope I don't screw things up anymore.

In a word: unfathomable...?

Sat, 30 Aug 2003 05:24:39 GMT

I can't begin to explain it.

My heart is breaking, my tears won't stop coming, I'm so sad and so nervous and so excited and so anxious and so everything that I wish I could just wake up.

This is it. In 7 hours I will leave Nashua and move into a dorm where I will begin my life as a College freshman.

Appreciate things before they are over....I wish I did.

and with that, Adios Nashua.
With Love,
Darci

Take 2

Wait...I think you might have missed this and I think you need to read this great work of poetry.

A poem. [26 Aug 2003|11:01am]

Bowling was fun,
You should have come!

I kicked Joe's ass in game 1,
but he still had a lot of fun.

Then in game two Ben took it all,
I was beat by Joe who is tall.

On the way home we took sweet pics,
our boobs looked huge and not like sticks.

I'm really glad last night was fun,
Cause when I'm gone i'll miss everyone.

Other than that it was just another great night spent with great friends. I hope I can enjoy all my last few nights like this.

A Nosalgic Night, if I say so myself...

Thu, 21 Aug 2003 13:41:55 GMT

The best part of the night, though, was when last summer almost compared to this one. Everyone, well not everyone, but a lot of people we are friends with in one place at the same time. It felt good. Doing, nothing. Being in the company of friends. I hope that no matter where I go in life, I never forget what that feels like.

Prepatory session at UNH today with the sister.

Wed, 20 Aug 2003 18:50:15 GMT

I thought I had full confidence in my decision. I DID have full confidence in my decision. Then reality hit me and all the emotion and feelings that go with it. I'm not ready to move, I'm not ready to be without him, I'm not ready to be on my own again.

But who asked? Who EVER asks?

It's a decision that I will not regret making so I just have to stick to my guns.

It hurts to be the breaker-uper too ya know.
