What up what up. I haven't written in here in a ridiculously long time. I got inspired for some reason. Since last time, I had the most amazing summer of my life, a pretty damn amazing first semester of college, and now I'm in my second semester of college. Yes, college. Weird. I'm still playing tennis. I love tennis, but I don't love playing for Moravian. However, I am in love with the girls on the team. They're my best friends at school. Best best best. They're pretty much beyond amazing and I hang out with them more than...well, we hang out a lot. So far, college is my favorite. I'm pretty sure this will be the best four years of my entire life so I'm going to take every advantage of that. Even though I've moved on, Michele, Olivia, and Lauren are still my very best friends. When we're together, nothing has changed. That's how you know you have something special. I couldn't live without them and I don't plan on it. I love toast. I forgot how much.

Again, it's been quite a while. I don't really feel like recapping the past few months so I won't I guess. The countdowns on my phone say: 22 days, 23 hours, and 32 minutes left until atlanta and 87 days, 19 hours, and 30 minutes left until summer. That's pretty exciting. I've decided Atlanta's going to be my real spring break since it will actually be somewhat warm and not 40° and rainy (even though I do love rain a great deal). And it's still pretty ridiculous that we don't get out till the 24th of June. I'll survive. It's not like I do anything too strenuous this year anyhow. This summer should be a pretty damn good one, despite the fact that it's probably going to be less than 2 months long. But it's because of college, so who fucking cares.
God, summer. I love you so. Nothing can bring me down during those three months.
I love the beach. And ice cream on the boardwalk while making comments about everyone else with Michele. And sitting on the beach when it's real dark. And thunderstorms. And warm nights after it rains and it's kinda foggy. And tennis. And teaching bratty kids how to play it. And playing 5 hours a day in 100° weather. And finally not being cold. And text messaging late into the night. And campouts. And long talks. And road trips. And temporary boys. And swimming. And pool parties. And barbeques at Nicole's with my favorite people. And good music. And good books. And getting tan. And good movies. And making tons of bracelets. And not having to worry about school. Or anything. And did anyone decide where they're going to college yet? Oh that's right...everyone's decided but me. AWESOME. I'll tell you a secret though. I'll probably end up choosing Moravian cause I love tennis more than toast. Surprising, I know. And sadly, I just realized that this year.

Hello, insomnia. I am so sick. Apparently it's trendy to be out of school massive chunks at a time. I'm not liking it. I'm coming tomorrow no matter what cause after school activities are finally beginning and I refuse to miss it. So if I infect the entire school, I apologize for it now.

It's been a pretty good break so far.
I finally got a new phone. Praise the Lord.
Saw Meet the Fockers. The baby was real cute. And the movie was semi-funny, semi-annoying.
Got like four fucking feet of air on random train tracks in Flemington, and nearly broke my spine.
Split open my finger and got stitches when I was in PA visiting every great aunt/uncle I have. That was a new experience. It put some excitement into my little 2-day venture.
Went out to dinner with a few of my very best friends, got ill, and sped home 90 miles an hour while Michele lit matches in the passengers seat.
I need to buy Anchorman.
Watched Garden State and Napoleon Dynamite.
Basically, hung out with a lot of really awesome people and did a lot of awesome things. Although, I wish there was more Joe Amorosa in there. But don't we all.
I just hope Lauren and I still have plans for tomorrow. If not, I'll be really sad.

Christmas Eve RULED. Not only because I saw my cousins from MA. My uncle (who GREATLY resembles Hagrid) is a mechanic so he always has some new crazy car to show off when we visit. One year he had a bright green car, once a car painted like the American Flag, but THIS year he topped them ALL! He had this huge conversion van from the 70s. It was like brown and tan on the outside and faded brownish-green interior. There were two big comfy recliners and a couch-bed thing, furry green carpet, huge speakers, curtains!, tables....oh my god, it ruled. I actually could live inside of it. My uncle drove all the kids to dinner in it, and then he got too drunk to drive it home. I was really upset that my cousin got to drive us home instead of me:( That actually would have made my whole year. My grandparents gave everyone SO MUCH money, a ridiculous amount...which made me really sad. It's kind of like they know they're not going to be around for much longer so they're just dishing it out. I told my mom I was going to buy a car. She got really nervous and offered to buy me one at the end of the year if I go to Rutgers. I don't really understand it fully, but...good enough for me. I finally got my ipod today. I really should have just bought it for myself 3 months ago, but I'm lazy. Andrew's/my party the other night was much fun, for the most part. Heh. I was glad Mahwah boys could come early to get dinner with us<3 I missed them. I actually spent 12 hours with Lauren on Thursday, and almost 7 with Michele. Who could ask for a better christmas present?! :)

I just got back from Chamber Choir singing at Shoprite. Twas fun, for the most part. Very chille. I love that Olivia's car broke down again today. She blames it on me. Pf, I was only driving. After we finally got it running, we turned onto her street and her car just flat out DIED. We rolled, pimp style, until we could roll no longer and conviniently ended up right in front of her driveway. Then her mother and I pushed Sharona up to the curb and that was my afternoon. Awesome. The choir festival kinda lame. Every choir sounded 10 times worse than they did a month ago, in my opinion. But whatev. Lauren introduced me to a fabulous new kinda of ice cream yesterday. And we all know how much I love ice cream. That reminded me that I had toast this morning. Cause toast is like my gift sent down from God, and I haven't had it in a really long time. It was rye toast if you were wondering. Very good indeed. If you need any ideas for me for christmas, a loaf of bread will do. Thanks! Now, I am going to watch movies and eat with Kopin. !!

I got a headache Thursday night, and it lasted until I fell asleep last night. Thats more than 2 days. I got so sick on Friday afternoon that I couldn't even go back to school after the education trip. Embarrassment? Just a LITTLE. The choir thing was actually the most painful experience ever. I wanted to pass out and die. I've never lacked this much energy before which worries me a little. Oh well. I went to the Rutgers football banquet tonight with my mother cause my grandpa was presenting an award and my mom basically tried to sell me off to the players. At least this year she listened when I told her to back off. Last year she insisted on introducing me to like 19 players...including my future husband, or so she thinks. What the flame. Half of them can't even read, let alone carry on a decent conversation. My mom has such low standards for me. Even though I just complained for like the past hour, it was a pretty good weekend, besides the whole being sick and wanting to die part.

This week's gone pretty damn fast. Hello, dear Friday. I'm pre-christmasing with Lauren and Olivia tomorrow night, I think. I love pre-christmasing. It makes me so happy. Club pictures got me out of basically every class today and I will holler to that. My name's not actually Matilda. I don't know what inspired me to type that. Drama auditions make me REAL happy cause that means its all finally beginning! I hear a lot of flambots are joining this year and that kinda bums me out. But Lauren's joining as well, so it all evens out!! Hopefully all the annoying ones will filter out. Tomorrow I have to teach a whole class of second graders. And I think the school is in Franklin. And I don't know the lesson plan. And I'm very, very nervous. Ok, time to visit Lauren at shop-rite/ buy massive amounts of cookies so that the children are even more insane when I'm trying to teach tomorrow? Makes sense.

Dear Cute little journal,
I have not updated in years. Or actually, months. Just call me Sucky. Senior year is pretty ridiculous. I don't do ANYTHING. At all. Ever. Ok well every once in a while, I splurge and study for a test here and there. But nothing too strenuous, mo. So Lauren and I have become exceptional friends over the past few months. We hang out a great deal, especially on weekends when we go crazy. Oh, love. Our runs through Somerville are excellent as well. Oh, and by the way, I know you're wondering, so yes..Lauren and I are currently dating each other. Hooray for my new fast computer. Yes, my parents finally gave in and got DSL. We get everything about ten years after everyone else gets it. What the gay. Seriously. Please, indulge in the technology America has provided for us. I visited/slept over Moravian the other day and LOVED it. But I still love TCNJ and Rutgers (which I'm kinda embarrassed about cause everyone hates Rutgers...but whatever). IIII want my godforsaken ipod already. If I get it, it will actually be my only Christmas present, which is totally fine with me. Speaking of Christmas, party at my house:) Come, cause you're invited! This is by far my favorite time of year (besides all of summer, of course). Friday is the beginning of the craziness...and it's non-stop for the next month. COOL. I'm sick. And I HATE it. RAR.
Love,
Dyana Williams Swan
PS Who wants to come to NYC with Laur and me before Christmas break? Come. I command you to.

:) Well, I've seen coheed and cambria, and saves the day. My life is now complete and I can officially die happy. I was also about 20 feet away from Claudio Sanchez, the animal, one of the two most musically ingenious people in the world. Or at least I think so. He's such a fucking animal. I wish you could have seen him on stage. The hair, I love. Oh my. I called Joe during a favor house so he could listen...it just wasn't the same without him there. The other bands were kinda..not worth it and it was about 4000 degrees in there but overall, the night was super. <3 Thank you Tim and Chris for being assholes and not letting us pay...yet :)

Lauren and I are great friends. We're more than fond of each other and hugging at the end of the night is what we do. My other friends are pretty hot too. I'm glad I got to see a good portion of them tonight. It was mommy's birthday today. A bunch of my friends said Happy Birthday to her and she was very excited about that. She's cute. So about 3 weeks of summer left. Even less time for the college kids. This blows. I don't like goodbyes so much.

bittersweet 6270 (11:19:06 PM): aw dyana, can we be real good friends forever and have slumber parties and stuff?
bittersweet 6270 (11:21:00 PM): like, hearting someone as much as i heart you is quite impossible
Oh, Lauren. I love you so.
White musk is a cool candle scent. The candle was sitting next to me, so I just lit that bad boy up. And I'm feeling very relaxed.
I still can't believe we're seniors. It really does feel like yesterday that we were coming in for our first day of high school. And I sat in the corner with Erica and told Jess she couldn't sit behind us because we were afraid of somerville kids. I'm going to miss these days. But then again I can't wait to get the hell out of here. High school relationships are so pointless.
Spider solitaire is god. yeah, god.

What happened to my journal?! :( How wretched. However, I've been informed that I am the only one who cannot read the entries. That's cool. I am going to be locked up in my house taking care of the Jersey City kids for the next week. So, I'll see you all on the 19th if I don't find a way to get myself out of here.

Holyyy moly. That was...intense. Who the hell names a road "Shades of Death"?? Seriously, what were they thinking when they named it? And I swear to god it was like 8 miles long. I spent more than half of it buried in Dave's leather seats. Shaking and shit. My god. Picture...abandoned farms, miles of woods followed by miles of cornstalks, no lines on the roads, eerie underpasses, creepy side roads, fog, and no cell phone service. This went on for more than a half hour. I was a wreck. But it was still tons of fun! Oh boy. And no ray, I will not ever do that again. Well, we'll see.

I'm in love with August. A little less than July and a lot less than September. September and I have a love-hate relationship though. It holds my birthday/license AND school. But I love it. The past few weeks have gone by incredibly fast. I couldn't think of a reason why. But then I realized that it is because I'm so happy right now. Everything is close to perfect, which rules. And also, I've been going out every single night. So there's never a dull moment. The end. This week may be a little different. Michele, who saves me from ultimate boredom everyday is gone for 10 days and on top of that, Olivia has left me as well. So, let's hang out.

It was Lauren's birthday on the 27th of June and this is my Happy Birthday entry to her since I was on vacation last week and since she is the only one who reads this journal anyway! Happy birthday, dear child. You are my shining star. I just heard that on a commercial. But you are, indeed, my star. And I like you a whole lot. You could even say that I love you. Why, yes...I love you very much. And now, a moment of remembrance:
Remember that birthday of yours that your family and I went out to eat at Alfonso's in china and then it thunder-stormed so we could not watch the movies we wanted so we just tormented your brother a little and ate lots of food until we could watch movies again?
Such wonderful times we've had Lauren Reinabunny. You're one of my very best friends. Don't ever change. I LOVE YOU!
