    <content type="html">I'm transforming this into something I can use while I'm in Scotland studying abroad next fall.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;I'm going to be gone from August until December 2008. I'll be working on my honor thesis and hopefully finishing my novel during that time as well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So until then sleep my little live-journal-- I shall awake you in the fall!</content>

    <content type="html">For all my older buddies in college around the nation-- I miss you all and I wish you could be here for all the amazing things. But I know all of you are having equally awesome experiences and I hope over summer we can all catch back up. I love you all! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ah, life. I love college-- I'm in this mode, i think the only word to describe it is "Chill." Its not a lack of motivation by no means. I'm motivated and on top of things. I have come to this inner peace of understanding with myself. I love learning here. Everyday I ask o many questions, not merely in class, but of my friends as well. I question and listen and develope ideas. Open-mindedness is the key to so many doors! I have a whole new world veiw. I'm at the point in life where the main character has this lose of innocence but then come to a greater understanding of themselves and life. I see God, myself, others, the world, in an entirely different light then a little less then 4 months ago. &lt;br /&gt;It's not all laid back, I go through phases of stress, but stress doesn't seem to have an affect on me lately, i dont worry as much, I don't feel lost as much. I feel happy.&lt;br /&gt;Like i'm where God wants me to be.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I keep having this battles inside over my religious beliefs. I love and fear God -- that wont ever change. But now I see how much Juedism, Christianity, and Islam are all tied so closely together. and the more I mawl it over the more I realize how SELFISH it would be for ONE religion praising God to think they are ONLY right. I mean who am to say God can only reach humans in one way -- i.e. through Christ. How do we not see that God could be using Moses, Jesus, Mohammed all to reach different people. He made us different for a reason. I just think it is very narrow-minded to believe there is only ONE way to be touched by God. Allah, Jaweh, God-- they are all three the same being... and if he loves us enough to send his son (in the christian side) then why wouldnt he send others like mohammed-- all three of these religions have been twisted so much by the people who practice them, most people are missing the point completly. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;but that just me and my new college phylisophical mind set.</content>

Use examples from either mathematics or geometry to explain why knowledge represents more than what the five senses perceive of physical objects. In other words what is the argument for forms? Supply the reasoning for why a higher sort of knowledge must exist. Also explain why Plato claims that physical objects are just copies of these forms or ideals."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Question 3:&lt;br /&gt;"What can we learn about Christian life and experience in Corinth in the 50’s Ad/CE from Paul’s letters to the Corinthians (1 Corinthians)? How does Paul’s letter address at least THREE specific instances of THREE of the five components (5 C’s) of religion? Be sure that your response makes extensive use of 1 Corinthians"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and there were 4 more like that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;shoot me in the face</content>

    <content type="html">BLAH!!!!! &lt;br /&gt;I just got chewed out by my band director! I miss B and G. &lt;br /&gt;I dropped my black socks on the way to a parade and somehow They got a picture of me jumping *one of our cadences* and yu can tell i'm not wearing socks. APPARENTLY I "made a fool of him!" WTF!!!! It pisses me off cause Anderson's marching band was soooo way more hardcore and we friggin cared about eachother and I miss it so much! This marching band at times feels so not worth working for. But I just bite my lip and work as hard as possible even if only about 20 out of the 140 are even trying!&amp;gt;.&amp;lt; He started lecturing me and I had just asked if I could miss ONE homegame for a wedding. ONE friggin home game I've been to everything else and people in my section have just not even showed up! And he just ripped into me. He made my cry!&amp;gt;.&amp;lt; And Then while i was practicing *I went to a practice room and just played to de-stress...better then punching him in the face i thought* He had the nerve to pop in and be like "sounds good, I havent ever heard you alone... Sounds really good."  Well you know what??? i dont care what you think!!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I dont think i would be so upset if everything hadnt been going like this. I'm stressing out a lot about different things. And kevs not doing so well either. I mean we're fine  *in fact we're wonderful* but school has him uberly stressed.....making me uberly stressed on top of my already slightly stressed outness. Its NOT his fault at all though. Its less stressful now that i'm here had I been back in cinci and he had bee having a hard time it would be worse. But here he can talk to me about it and its much better i'm glad he talks to me about it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BUT I"M PISSED!!!!! Tonight at this damn rehersal, i'm gonna just snap-- i know it. I'm just gonna chuck my marching baritone across the field and quit. Screw this shit! I would rather be apart of something where there was respect for eachother and passion for what we are doing. This is a load of bull</content>

The work load is a little lighter, but i'm still busy as hell.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I love my room and roomate. Liz and I just chill here in the evenings doing homework *we have the same classes* and getting dinner and hangig here with MaryKate and Brian (our New Yorker :D) Then late evening i go visit Kev-- mmmm it so nice.&lt;br /&gt;I actually call my room home. It is my home, here. I'm always like "I gotta go home and finish my work." I get weird looks caus they think i man cinci.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;which i'm visiting this sunday. :) I'm happy to come home for a little bit, but my room is so cozy here. I have my Starrynight poster and my Led Zep poster and my Holy Grail poster and my cork board with everyone on it and my fridge and Liz's TV and DVD player and my Laptop and Liz's Posters everywhere too and our awesome giant lamp and our awesome carpet and my desk with all my books and Our printer that still isnt up and running and all our snack foods and our bean bags.&lt;br /&gt;you guys should all come and visit. it is a nice little place.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Classes are good. I got my first quiz back 18/20 :) 90% is good with me right now considering how much work it has been. plus everyone says grades are lower first semester here then any other time. so i'm getting in the groove. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I miss all the kid qat home though. but its more that i want them to come here and meet all my new buds and love them all as much as i do. :)</content>

    <content type="html">Most of you still have a couple weeks left of summer-- i think me and Holly Maz are the only ones leaving THIS early for school. I leave friday to move in-- 5 days.&lt;br /&gt;summer has been crazy good.&lt;br /&gt;i'm gonna miss it extremely.&lt;br /&gt;i've been sick the past 4 or so days. stomach virus er something, which sucked considering that was my last weekend. :(&lt;br /&gt;I still havent seen any of my Patty-o!! :`( and i havent gotten to hangout with carrie hardly at all :( &lt;br /&gt;i'm just sad ingeneral. I'm excited to live alone and go to band camp again and meet new peple... but i already did that once this summer! haha Europe was like band camp for me. and a ton of new people.&lt;br /&gt;Today i'm going shopping for last minute everything! and prolly spending the day organizing and packing everything. Tonight i'm chillin' for the last time with the Band grills (girls) Laurel linds and erin. were doing b-dubs and slumber party. &lt;br /&gt;I'm so nervous.&lt;br /&gt;this was the summer of change and-- i'm not even to the biggest change of the summer.&lt;br /&gt;*sigh*</content>

    <content type="html">I leave for school in less then 15 days. wow that bites!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I do get to move in nice and early because i'm doing marching band and we have camp the week and a half before school actually starts. so that'll be cool-- but i'm slightly FRAKING OUT!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;since it has been FOREVER since I updated...i'll give you some lowdown.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Summer has consisted of three things. 1. Work 2. Europe and 3. friends&lt;br /&gt;1. work-- AHHHHHHHH, scallywag is great and all but I'm not making enough money. Europe drained my bank account and it seems i'll will never have money for the rest of my life. Also I've been doing some summer work for school-- alcoholEDU and a paper for humanities and the like.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Europe--.... I can't even describe in words the awesomeness of that trip. I miss it so much. listed from favorite to least favorite here are the countries we visited and most we played concerts in. Swizterland, Germany, England, France, Italy, Leichtenstien/Austria. My top three are really close to eachother. But swizterland takes the cake with a goregeous mountain veiw every morning, polka-ing and fondu in the afternoons, and saranaiding and "goodnight kissies"(silly kisses on both cheeks-- like the french!) in the evening. The group of friends I hungout with, the awesome 8, I miss so much. the anderson 5, caitlin myers, nic campos, kevin brown, chas wheaton, and I plus our two girlies from toledo, katie and jodi (I miss those girls!) and last but not least brad from mason (not to far from here..."the 30 minute drive is relaxing"- he says.) We all blended together great.  &lt;br /&gt;The first couple days i spent with jet lag, migrains, and a really nasty attitude. frankly I didnt want to be there. But after 3-5 days of "the ashley we dont speak of" (caitlin dubbed it) I found myself again. In swizterland suddenyl my headaches were gone and I felt completly restored. It was crazy! I hadnt felt that good in months. I was laughing constently with my new friends and my head never felt better. The rest of the trip was amazing. I miss it so much-- Our last night in Rothenburg, Germany was very depressing. we had our big social and party and the the long drawn out walk back to all our rooms with "goodnight kissies" all around. I was very upset that night to leave it all behind. I had to suddenly go back home leave all my new friends and the refreshed ashley I knew would probably die away before the week was even out. I teared up a little. The ride home was fun though. 9 hours of me and brad swopping music and keeping eachother awake with "paper rock scissors," or raspberry chocolate....the airport when i had to leave was really hard. I wanted to bring katie and jodi home with me-- I knew they would be the hardest to see being 4 hours away. But we all promised when we get settled in college we would invite eachother up for sibs weekend.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Friends: I havent seen much of a lot of people. Ive been trying to just go with the flow. I get to see my kevin-hunnybunny (hehe...sorry) when he's not working. which is often enough to keep us both happy :) It'll be nice going to college together. The old band gang-- welll its so weird that I still see them all quiet often. 4 years later and were all still eating at b-dubs. haha the girls have gotten a little more....friendly with eachother? hehe i'm just teasing you guys. I havent seen Burns!!! OR hancock!!! what the helll??? where are my davids!? I miss those boys-- but i have a feeling they are having a wonderful summer...even if it's with out me :( I hardly have seen patty which makes me extra sad too. mainly since I got back from europe I've seen Kevin, the band gang, and I've gotten together with Brad some too-- even if the drive is 30 minutes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;summer is coming to a close for me-- 15 days incounting and I have a report to write, a book to finish, and money to earn. what a crazy last 15 days.</content>

    <content type="html">ok so the blues are wearing down a bit-- the end is insight and i'm starting to enjoy life a little bit more.&lt;br /&gt;i've been working like a mofo and by the end of summer i'll hopefully have a substantial amount in my bank account. *yeah i'm a beast! I'm gonna try not to spend to much on school stuff for college...but its gonna be hard over summer... i wanna buy all kinds of awesome stuff for living on my own. but i gotta save through the years cause i'm gonna need money in the future.&lt;br /&gt;school is school. hah. homework is at a minimum. Clutter still on us for the AP exam. no biggie really. physics still hates me cause of Rod's ADD but besides that classes are slowing down and without final exams i've given up in many. Coasting. coasting with my A's and B's&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I got to see my kevin this past weekend which was very very nice.  it was like summer in a way. we went bike riding and creeking and to parties and "watch movies" and it made me wanna be out of school so bad saturday night when i dropped him off with the feeling-- he is going to school and i'm staying here and i'm alone...again. Its like in between i fend for myself but the weekends when he's home suddenly i have some one so close to me...its like the Uber emotional mix. I think thats why i seem so blah to everyone and myself. summer will be a clean slate. Me and kev have past the test of long distance for over 10 months and we trust eachother so much because of that. i wonder if we would be the same couple if we had both been going to UD this year. I mean i'm sure we would still be together-- but i just wonder how different things would be. i'm wondering if in the future if we'll look back and think that it made us stronger?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;off to bed. you know.</content>

Besides the weekends it was very boring. the first weekend was so wonderful with kevin. then the long week. the weather was nice though. the second weekend was nice-- busy, but i did see kevin. I felt bad though cause he had hurt his back :\ &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I cant believe we've almost made it. its been 9 months. and we are almost past the hard stuff. make it one more month and then we can see eachother as much as we want. and then college.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;that's where life is. waiting. waiting to graduate, waiting for summer, waiting for college, waiting for everything.</content>

Burns is in Florida. Everybody else taking college visits. &lt;br /&gt;and it doesnt matter cause me and carrie are playing mom and dad while mom is on vacation and dad works. so we cant stay out past midnight, and cant go anywhere till 3p.m. when dad gets home from work.&lt;br /&gt;and this weather is killing me.&lt;br /&gt;i'm going to bed.&lt;br /&gt;maybe sleep will help.</content>

    <content type="html">Well, things are getting a lot better for me.&lt;br /&gt;I got to see kevin this weekend and that was wonderful. I cant wait for next year!&lt;br /&gt;I'm getting closer to a couple of my friends lately. Unfortunatly through hard times for DB. but inspite of all the crap he is going through right now with life it's nice to have those nights of talking again. I really hope things get better for him. &lt;br /&gt;speaking of talking *thats a little redundent* I started talking with Ian Bond. we've been friends for awhile but not friends that you'd talk about serious stuff. well we have been emailing eachother and stuff and he needed a ride home so on the way home we took a detore and grabbed some drinks at UDF and hungout and talked. It was really nice. We have the same veiws on stuff so we just talk and talk and get eachothers oppinions on stuff. So I have a new friend hahaha....well he's an old friend, so a better friend of an old friend maybe?&lt;br /&gt;I'm going tonight with patty to see Big River. Its a musical with sign language it looks like it'll be pretty cool. &lt;br /&gt;Mr. Skiles is "making" me do a senior 1 act. Igoe says i should use my Medea script I wrote for clutter. I dont know though a lot of the humor is in the stage directions. Eh we'll see.&lt;br /&gt;It'd be kinda weird getting back into the drama scene the last thing senior year.&lt;br /&gt;I got a prom dress... its pretty and light green and curly and pretty :) I cant wait for prom....its a while away but it'll still be awesome! Kevin will be here and he'll look all handsom (like always) and maybe Burns'll take patty (haha neither one of them know i'm planning that but...they should go-- 2 of my my best friends and me and my kevin (:-*) and we go on a double date to prom.....yippy!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Me and kevin had a stressful yet enlightening talk the other night. It was very good. It really put me back on track i know where i want to be-- i'm making it there slowly and i kinda had lost sight of that. I love him so much :)</content>

I got a cake at work and a digi camera :)&lt;br /&gt;it was all very nice.&lt;br /&gt;i'm not sure whats wrong with me lately-- but I think I should prolly spend some thinking time. you know those times. &lt;br /&gt;I kick Mat B. today.....it made me feel better&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was reading old enteries-- memory lane is wacked out.....it goes back to freshman year-- WEIRD!&lt;br /&gt;i've changed and i'm not sure if for the better or for worse but i've changed so i guess i should just go with the flow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I miss the college kids. I miss my happier-naiive-self sometimes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;hmmm</content>
