So although it is very unlike me to be considered a "dating" girl, it's been one of the best things that have happened to me lately. I think it's something that is important to my growing up, if that makes sense. I feel like I've been in this bubble of my regular friends for quite some time, and this is where I latch out. It's wierd, at times uncomfortable, but it's doing very good things. Plus, even though I'm "dating".... I'm taking it slowly. It's again something I needed. I don't feel any rush to do anything (of course my mind thinks other things... lol. It's been a while)
I also hung out with my friend from work, Nate, tonight. That was an experience. I mean we are completely friends and stuff, but it was really sweet. We were SUPPOSED to go to the Walker Art Center because it was APPARENTLY open until 9:00. Yah... I can't read and that was the box office.... galleries close at 5. We go there at 5:30. Y'ah know what we did to make up for it? Bought something from the gift shop. lol. It actually turned out to be a very good thing because he had left his stove on! Eep! No good. Oh yes.... Nate has an AMAZING view. I've never seen such a great view. He has the whole entire Minneapolis skyline in his bedroom window! can you believe it? I can see why he likes his apartment, this is all besides the fact that he has wood floors, high ceilings, and lots of open space. He did very well for himself. And the best part of all is Moped (his kitty). tee hee. wow. love it. But it was really nice to be out of the work atmosphere. we actually have a lot of things in common (MOST MOVIES, some books, interest in mythology, and the list goes on and on) so we just stayed at his place and talked for a while. Then we decided that ice cream was a necessity so we got some of that and watched Donnie Darko. It was fun cuz we talked through the whole thing, commenting on everything. It was hysterical. Then we talked until like midnight. It was a really late night since I got very little sleep, but I had a blast.
I don't have too much to say at that point. Jen and I are looking at two apartments on Monday which i'm SUPER EXCITED ABOUT!!!!!!!!!! I'm soo happy. It'll be fun to live with her. Of course I have to wait for her to go to Rome and then come back again, and then have summer.... but heck, it's worth the wait. Right? I already bought two whole things to put in our lovely apartment. I hope she likes both. she helped pick out one... but the other... is a cheap surprise. yay.
Ok, I have more to say, but I'm spent. World, lets all sleep. night!

Something old, something new, something funny, and something you should buy!
Okay okay, I've never been a person to "sell" things. Heck, I was at Panera Bread for four years giving things to people that they were already coming in to get- food. I was very good at "suggesting" things for people to get. But at the bank, I fail.
-Do you want a check card?
-A what?
-A check card... yah know? The little golden card that looks like a credit...
-No! I don't need ANOTHER credit card.
(shoot)- Uh, it's not a credit ca-
-No thank you.
(double shoot) -K... thanks... for stopping... at.... Wells F-fargo. (the nervousness of the situation has set in).
Case in point.
BUT I sit here today being a salesperson to someone we all know and love. Jenny Kozicky. Now it has come to my complete and utter attention that our little miss "Dalia" has finally made her first CD!!! (WWOOOOO!!!!) I couldn't be more thrilled for her! I have to support my fellow lady in the arts. So I pulled out my card today and bought it! I can't wait to get it in the mail. My mom was even like, can I open it and listen to it? I thought, huh... why? And then she said she was probably going to buy it too. lol. YAY! So I must say that you should all buy her cd. It's like 12 bucks, which isn't a lot, and guys I mean... she went to highschool with us! (er... you...) We all know she is talented and deserves a shot. You don't even HAVE to listen to it, just buy it. She'd appreciate it.... and I'd smile at you and give you a hug. K? Sounds like a plan! And also if you buy it online through a website you'll get this hysterical little e-mail like I did:
Your CD has been gently taken from our CD Baby shelves withsterilized contamination-free gloves and placed onto a satin pillow.A team of 50 employees inspected your CD and polished it to make sureit was in the best possible condition before mailing.Our packing specialist from Japan lit a candle and a hush fell overthe crowd as he put your CD into the finest gold-lined box that moneycan buy.We all had a wonderful celebration afterwards and the whole partymarched down the street to the post office where the entire town ofPortland waved "Bon Voyage!" to your package, on its way to you, inour private CD Baby jet on this day, Tuesday, January 15th.I hope you had a wonderful time shopping at CD Baby. We sure did.Your picture is on our wall as "Customer of the Year." We're allexhausted but can't wait for you to come back to CDBABY.COM!!Thank you, thank you, thank you!Sigh...--Derek Sivers, president, CD Baby
Okay, I'm done selling for today! Love you all!

P.S.- The Wild won (4-1 baby!)... and I will say that I'm officially DATING Ben.... =)

I like to think I know it all
Wouldn't it be nice if you did know it all? Know where you end up and who you end up with? What life will be after grades don't matter and what your kids will be like? It'd ruin the journey, sure, but it's easier to skip the journey and go to the end. I love the New Year and everything it has brought me in a short amount of time, but I feel kinda lost. An example is that I'm in a class that I love, and I'm in the class with someone I love but then again it's a struggle to find the time to compete with him. I'm not as smart as him and I don't have all the time he has to do these wonderful things. I had a test today and I completely panicked last night about it. I questioned everything about me. Am I even MEANT to be here? Or did I force myself in? It's hard to ask yourself those questions. It's just so hard when it shouldn't be. And to take a class with Justin was supposed to be fun and exciting but I feel like an annoyance to him. Almost like he wishes he wouldn't have taken it with me. It was supposed to make us closer in friendship cuz he's forced to see me everyday! But apparently that was a bad choice. I just hope it doesn't push us apart. And I hope I can get through this class without feeling worse about myself. Still the class will bring some rewards... maybe I just had a dip in the journey.
I'm also sitting here, waiting to go on another date. Nobody knew about it. I didn't feel the need to be judged (like I knew I would be). I didn't need to be questioned about his faith or the fact that we probably aren't that compatible. I didn't need to be asked if he's a good guy, or have guy friends raise an eyebrow to such an impromptu guy. He's a guy, a guy who likes me for me, and that's all that anyone can ask for right? It's not like I'm gonna have someone come waltzing in today and tell me that he loves me and can't live with the idea of me dating someone else. I can't wait anymore, I can't, and I shouldn't be expected to. So there, I dunno. I may be making a mistake, but I've always felt that you have to make your own mistakes, or your really not living. And a lot of people keep asking me if I'm toying with him cuz it doesn't sound like I like him that much. Honestly? I don't know how I feel. I think I've lost the sense of what it is to like people. What the heck does that even mean? I'm in the process of finding that out. Not in just the sense of between people, but between you and God. What are the boundaries of our love compared to his love? Can our love ever get close? Anyway, that's what is running through my head.
Tomorrow I get to go listen to the St. Paul Orchestra and I'm very thrilled. I love music, and this will be quite an experience. It'll be a long night, but i'm pumped for it! That's one of the many things I like about this school, besides the fact that it kicks my butt in everything. It makes us oh so well rounded. Lol. It does though. I get to go to art museums and plays and orchestras, all for $45! YAY!
Well I will just sum up the last couple of weeks... New Year's was great as usual. We were at Kelly's and there was broomball (and I didn't even get hurt!) and people I haven't seen in a while, and it was just such a comfortable spot to be in. My job is good even though I suck at selling things. I worked a lot over break but I saw a lot of people and did a lot of things! I even went ice skating! That was dangerous! But now I feel utterly obsessed with it and want to get better and go all the time! I didn't remember that it was so much fun. My ankles killed because they were too small, but that's just a minor detail. Other than that, nothing is really new. I should go, it's bed time and I have to be up for work tomorrow. Love you
