Dear Diary,

Communication with others might be a bit blocked today. Everyone around you seems to be rather taciturn and uncommunicative. You probably won't mind as you aren't apt to feel much like talking either, but this can get in the way of reaching an understanding between you and others. Try to be clear and precise with friends and colleagues, STACY. No one wants to get into animated discussions, but everyone wants to know what's expected of them.

The past couple of weeks have been in my opinion kinda hectic. Once I got accepted into college then I needed to get forms all filled out and sent in to the school to let them know that I was accepting there offer of acceptence to me, fill out residence forms and send that away to the residence office along with $250 as a down payment on a room (I can get it back though if I change my mind as long as its before July 31st), then I had to sign up for First Aid and CPR courses which in the end ended up costing $110, then I had to fill out OSAP papers in which took forever and I seriously don't think that I will get any OSAP assistance in the end because apparently my parents make too much money and thats just a crook of shit, and then in the end of May I need to have a criminal record check be done. Blah. Everything is happening so fast. Not to mention the every day stuff that still needs to be taken care of which consists of online course work, housework, job hunting, school planning and time to myself. I have a job interview to night though. Its nothing spectacular and I'm not even looking forward to it. Its at Food Basics likely for a cashier. WOO-HOO. lol. *rolls eyes* I couldn't be more thrilled as you can tell. I'm still applying for other jobs though. Mainly in Kitchener so I can leave home sooner. The sooner the better is how I pretty much feel about it. I need to be out of Stratford and away from home. Kitchener is the way to go! lol. Greg's nearing the end of school...in fact, today he writing his last and final exam. I think he still has a few projects or assignments though that he's got to get done and handed in though. :) I'm so proud of him though. He's come so far and has done amazing things that I bet he didn't even realize he was capable to accomplishing. I know that I am truly proud of him and that his family is as well. I know now just what to get him for a small graduation present too. :) I picked out the perfect thing last night while out at the mall with Tarry. I just hope he'll like it. I'll have to wait though and see.

Blah, my tummy is feeling weird again this morning. I can't figure it out. I think its because of these new pills that I just started taking but I'm not 100% sure. My stomach though has been feeling weird lately though and I actually ended up throwing up at Greg's place last weekend which was kinda embarrasing. One things for sure though, I really hope that mom is planning on going grocery shopping later on tonight. We have NO food in the house. Its disgusting. Yesterday for breakfast I ended up eating some vegetable crackers with a packet or ceaser salad dressing that you get when you order pizza! How terrible eh? I was hungry though and needed something. We don't even have any bread or milk in the house. Sigh. Mom better be getting some food tonight. At least something. Not much has changed though as you can see. Hmmm what else to mention? Not much else is new. Spending as much time now as I can with Greg... :) Still no word from Alicia which worries me to death. I can't even begin to describe how worried I am about her and how much I really miss her. I'm sure though that Virginia will tell her the next time that she talks with her that I called and spoke with her to try and find out where she was. I just hope everything is ok and she's getting her life in order. I havn't even talked to Crystal lately but according to Mallory, she's doing ok and still living with Robin and her family. See, same old stuff, just a new day. I guess that's about all the news I have. Hope everyone else is taking care and doing well.

*love always stacy*
