Majoring in Psychology, riding horses for a living, parties on the weekends, and lots and lots of studying during the week.
I'm not the type of person that just walks up to people and says, "Hi! I'm Ellen! What's your name?! Whaana be like, best friends?!" All of my current friends, I met by default, so whoever I HAPPEN to meet I guess... Haha!
Too many to list... No really. Too many. All I can say is thanks, Reagan. You're the best thing that has ever happened to my music collection. And when you're down on you luck, hey baby it's a long long way up. Hold back now, hold back your fears. And when you're really down and out, and you feel like there's no way out now, let go now, let go your tears some more."--Social Distortion. "The best is when you say the worst is over. It's like saying we had luck with a three-leaf clover; and you kept saying that over and over. It's nice to catch you looking over your shoulder. And it's ok, I know. The only times you really loved me were the times you weren't sober. And that hurts... We all hurt... and I kept saying that OVER AND OVER!!!..."--Matchbook Romance. "Panic was lost in a deep understanding that you will see what it wrong with everything, what is wrong with you and me that make all the right reasons to fuck it up? You're gonna FUCK IT UP!"--Against Me! "When you sleep, she'd stand in there with open arms and one night can last forever. And if you asked her, she'd never let. And you'd stay forever. And the sun's always rising in the sky somewhere."--Against Me! "Before you speak, think about what you're trying to say. Who else is there to blame for miscommunication?"--Against Me! "I'll be the end of everyone who ever entered your life and taken pieces out of it. I'll give you enough time to regain your composure; to reconstruct a heart that's been torn apart by overexposure. I know forever isn't long enough to forget the faces and places that played out your tragedy."--BoysNightOut "I've got some friends, some that I hardly know, but we've had some times I wouldn't trade for the world."--Rise Against "What have I to show except the promises I never kept? I lie here shaking on this bed under the weight of my regrets. I hope that I will never let you down. I know that this can be more than just flashing lights and sounds!"--Thrice "
Nick says it's weird, but I think I have a very eclectic taste in movies; all the way from Braveheart to Basketball. I'm always a sucker for love stories (P.S. I Love You), and a fiend for drama (Eastern Promises). Comedies are always welcome (Dumb and Dumber), and there is always a place in my heart for the oldies but goodies (Pillow Talk).
Yeah... don't have a tv in my dorm. However, I L O V E the discovery channel and Discovery Health and all of those sorts of educational things.
Text books... because they are required. Every now and then when the incredibly rare mood strikes, I may pick up a book on my own. Like right now, I am reading Blue Shoes and Happiness. Its just adorable!
Mr. Geary once told me that the best way to thank someone is to mimic them. With that said, Dan Knuth, Buck Branaman, and Quinn Hinrichs because they inspired me to be the best horse trainer I could be. My therapist from years ago, Stacie, because she helped me through a ton of shit and because of her, I want to help people now; make sad people happy. My friends Allie and Kayla and Randi and Amy are some of the best friends that anyone could ever EVER ask for and are a constant reminder to be the best person you can be and always be trying to improve the lives of everyone around you. Aaron and Reagan are indirect heroes of mine because even though things are not always perfect or they ended in a fire ball of disaster, I have never learned to much about myself than I did through my relationships with those men. My dear G-B may be my grandma, but the is the hippest old lady and loves me more than anyone ever should, even when I fuck up horribly! And last but not least by any means, my mom and dad because... um... duh! Where would I be without their overbearing love and support in everything I do? Each one of these people has played a major role in my life and I love them more than is rationally possible.
