Hey girls!

I am so embarrassed because this morning I was taking a shower and 5 minutes after my roommate left I heard a knock on the bathroom window, and so I ran outside and cried and called her to please come home. I felt like such a bitch because here she is trying to go to school and im scared again! Also, I have had to call my internship and tell them whats going on and I feel like such a let down. Even though, it isn't paid, I still feel like I owe it to them to be there. I am so distraught.

This morning I got a weird call asking all about Friday night and the guy said he was a cop, but our detective said he would never expect a cop to call us and so he came over about 1:30 to get to the bottom of this. He said nobody would call us but him and it couldn't have been a cop. Come to find out, it was a cop so I felt even dumber. I just feel so helpless right now and I feel like such a let down to my teachers, and everyone because I am so out of it right now. I decided that from now on im putting a smile on my face and moving on until something happens. The detective should have it under control anyway. My mom, and my roommates mom both want to come to Raleigh and whoop some ass, I mean because I do feel safe in a sense, just very scared too. I am not going to move because I love our house and I love that a detective is on our side.

My roommates boyfriend came over and we rode down every road, and saw a time warner cable truck. I glared into that bitch like there was no tomorrow...at this point, even I could whoop some ass! I just know it is the cable guy who was calling me because after my landlord called and blessed out TWC the calls stopped. I love TWC for one thing, and know they would be embarrassed to have employees like that. I just don't know what the deal with the Tahoe is.

What should I do?

Thanks for letting me rant, next week I know my posts will be back to crazy...funny...SAFE stories again! Thanks for all of the sweet comments that you sweet gals leave me all the time. I love blogging, it sure is a way to get how I feel out there!

Stalker/Wedding/Fun Weekend!

Hey girls!

I know its been forever since i've posted but we have had the craziest of crazy week! I know every day I write about is just out there, but this is just...my goodness!

So it all started last week when I started getting sketchy phone calls from a man named "Jason" saying "Im watching you" in the middle of the night, and then calling me one night after I quit my nanny job and saying "I didnt see you come out at 5am, but I did see your roommate come in at 8." Then I got one and he said "I think your really pretty, and I love to watch you and your roommates."

Its enough already!

The calls have ceased and now it is just some white Tahoe with a personalized NCSU license plate.

See, at first I really thought it was the cable guy calling me because remember from a few posts back...he was so crude and he hit on me...oh and told me he had been to prison. I didnt even think, but then he did tell me he needed my number on the contract for the business file. Well, I have never gotten cable before so I gave it to them on the contract.

Okay so, heres the story.

I came home last Wednesday at 11:30am to find a big brand new white Tahoe in my usual parking spot, I mean it is my driveway...so anyways I swerved and parked in front of the Tahoe. I thought at first that maybe my roommate just had a friend over.

Well, I got out of my car and noticed that the Tahoe was running, the windows were darker then my on growing roots (but thats not here or there), and NOBODY was in the passenger or the driver seat.

So, I went into my house and saw my roommate on the couch, and I said "girl who's in the Tahoe?" She said "what Tahoe?" She said a Tahoe had been behind her the whole way home from school, but that it kept going straight when she got home. Well, it was now hiding behind the trees in our driveway, and so we said well maybe they are waiting on someone or having car trouble so, AN HOUR AND A HALF later we had another class so we were leaving. I decided that I would (stupidly I know) walk to my car and pretend to get something and look to see if anyone appeared to be in the drivers seat, well I looked as my roommate stood on the porch with her phone ready to dial 911, and again I saw no one. I even waited for a minute and then yelled "I don't see a soul!" RIGHT as I got back on our porch the car all of the sudden locked the doors, the horn went off and it sped off so so fast! SOMEONE WAS HIDING IN THE BACK SEAT!

I just was so angry, I called 911 so fast and told them they better please send a patrol car asap!!

So as I said, me and my roommate locked the door...well that night all 4 of us were talking and you will NEVER guess!!

My other roommate came home, see we left at 12:30, my other roommate came home at 2 from her class and NOBODY with a key had been to the house, but the door was unlocked when she got here. She said she assumed I forgot to lock it...because I would, and so she came in and took a shower. She had put her phone in the MIDDLE of our coffee table and it was off, and as she was drying her hair with the bathroom door shut she hears something CRASH! She comes out to see what it is and the door is yet again unlocked, and her phone is in pieces on the ground!!

When we put 2 and 2 together we realized that someone came in our house and I was just appalled!

That night I got two more calls that I mentioned earlier, and those were the last calls I ever got! Well...so far haha!

Anyways, so Thursday it was 3 of us in the house and I have called the police a good 3 times at this point and...well I will get to that...not a good experience! But anyways, so Thursday we see the Tahoe drive by at least 8 times and they would basically stop in front of our den window and just STARE and then speed off. We were up scared stiff all night long, literally, we hadn't slept in 5 days at this point! We stayed on that couch until 4am trying to get a policeman out to our house but because we live in a safe place they NEVER COME! That just wrong!

So okay heres the police story...see as I said before,I always call whoever, and say whatever because I am the most talkative. Okay so I call 911 for the 5th time that night and this is what the bitch says!

"911, emergency this be Tameka speakin whatcha wanna report?"
"I said: "I need a cop to this address, please"
She must have started asking me 20 questions, and I just wasn't gonna deal with it! I had answered them all at least 8 times that night and she still hadn't sent anybody!!
So, I said "Listen, Tameka, I don't know who the hell you think you are, but if I am up at 3am with bags under my eyes because I haven't slept in 5 days because you wont send me a police officer to talk to, you better believe I do not want your attitude!
She said (mocked)"is somebody in your house right this minute, ready to come get you?"
I said, "Are you mocking me, Tameka, because if so, you'll be sorry! I don't know who raised you, but they did a bad job, I cannot believe you haven't sent a cop and I have called you all week, this is so out of hand.

So she sent a cop, his name was Juan and he said he was new to the force. He came to the door, said they couldn't file a report unless something actually happened, I wasn't allowed to talk to him because I was sleep deprived, scared, and steamed! My roommate was talking to him, but when he said that I went to that door in my seersucker pjs, and I said Listen,Juan, I don't mean to be rude but if you think we are lying come search the house! He said he didn't have a partner so he didn't want to search the house, so he said call if something actually happens and we shut the door and just kept on praying that somebody would believe us. Juan has a gun, but he cant search the house...wow!

FINALLY...Friday night me and my roommate were about to go to the beach to get the hell out of Raleigh and she and I decided to go to her friends wedding! It was fun! I'll get to that in a minute!

So anyways, we were about to leave for the wedding Friday night and all of the sudden my roommate just looked sick, and yelled KATIE, call 911 now! So I did, and of course it was Tameka again, and I said...don't start send a cop we see the guy. She said, honey we get calls like this everyday. Lets face it, you can yell and still use good manners! But after that, I had had it!

So my roommate said HE WAS AT THE WINDOW, so I peeked through the blinds and he had snuck up behind my roommates car and was just glaring at me, dead in the eye!! It was like he was looking at us like we were his prey! It scared me so bad, I had a panic attack! I haven't had one of those...ever! But I couldn't breathe and I was balling, I couldn't even talk for probably 15 minutes because i was crying so hard. Remember in Halloween how Michael Myers tilts his head and stares, that's what this guy did to me, just staring in the window.

The cops got there and threw him in the back of the car and dispatcher calls back, I couldn't EVEN compose myself to talk so my roommate tried to although, she wasn't much better!

The cops came to the door, and I answered and we told them what happened and they pulled the guy out of the car and brought him close to us and said "CAN YOU IDENTIFY HIM AS THE MAN YOU SAW?!" The guy just looked at me again, smiled and shrugged! My roommate and I said, that's him!

See when he was trying to get us, he had on a white cap and a black shirt, when the cops got him, he had changed into a yellow shirt and a toboggan. That is something a rapist does according to the cops!! I am so upset about this, its just absolutely enough! I am 20 years old, I pay to go to a good school, and a great neighborhood and this happens!

Anyways, so here is the best part about the weekend so my post isn't all negative! My roommate and I went to her hometown and the next day we went to this beautiful old time looking wedding in this beautiful white church that was so so old.
After the wedding, we went back to my roommates house and her dad made us a White Russian to get ready for the reception!!! We had that and I was already chatty haha! It doesn't take much, then we got to the reception and we had the best time. They had bourbon punch and vodka and lemonade, I don't really think there was alcohol in any of it though, I couldn't feel a thing. My roommate and I kept going back to the bar, I mean we had a stressful week we needed to unwind and an open bar is the perfect excuse!

So okay it was later in the night and we had mingled, danced, what have you haha! AND so we made our 12nd, 10th (whose counting?) trip to the bar and my roommate said "I want some more punch please. And the bartender said, "Honey you drank it all!" HAHA!! I personally preferred the wine, and the bourbon punch but I swear there wasn't hardly any alcohol per cup!

HAHA!! That made my night!

Her mom was so embarrassed! It was so funny!

THEN!!
At the wedding, this big woman got up to do a solo in what can only be called a sailor suit and the wedding was beautiful accept for that minor detail! She was so so so funny, I was shaking in my pew with my roommate as everyone else kept their composure! As if her voice wasn't enough to make me laugh (I laugh at extremely inappropriate times!) she all of the sudden was singing and she was mid note and she was saying "In his faaaa(CHOKES)aaace...and then ends with a big grin like she didn't just choke!! Honey we saw it! HAHA! There was no music, just her and her voice, and I swear I about fell out of my pew!

But this weekend was just what I needed, and the dean of students has given us permission to skip class whenever we need to and that's good because today a private detective came to the house and I had to miss class and she said it was absolutely excused! I am just so stressed, and I don't get stressed i'm always okay but this has really shaken me up!

I hope y'all all have a great week though, I will try to post again soon!

Painting and Excitement

Hey girls!

I hope everyone is having a great Sunday! Sunday is just my favorite day of the week!

So it has been a long few days since I have posted, but here it goes, I will catch y'all up!

Today me and my roommates are painting the den walls, we chose to do a tomato red and it looks great! We are actually all Tar Heel fanatics, but it looks like State in this house!! AHHH what will we do? We actually started moving the furniture last night!
Okay... so we JUST had an exterminator come and spray, but OMG there were the leavings of a mouse under the couch!
I was, oh my gosh, I was so pissed off!
I stood on the couch cushion for a good hour thinking, not only when the fire department would be here to rescue me, but also which hotel/dorm room I was gonna sleep in! I ended up having a glass of red wine and just sleeping in my own bed. My roommates think they are old, but I don't care, that is just so gross! WHEW, so we will see what we can do about that problem! Its always something, so I have learned just to laugh at everything because it could always be worse!

Anyways, so as I told you I have been babysitting a lot lately, and it has just been great! I actually ended up quitting (yes I know I only lasted a week!) the nanny job I had. But y'all, I was getting up at 5am every day, she was over scheduling me, and she didn't pay me for the 1st week. So I kept her townhouse key and i'm expecting a call and so when she calls for that I plan on asking about my check! It wasn't that I didn't like the little boy, its just that I get really scared leaving my house and walking to my car in the dark, and then getting to her townhouse 15 minutes away and walking in there in the dark and her son is just plain out of it all the time. He can barely talk and hes 8! I just realized that he is a very sweet kid, but he and I just did not do well together he needs someone patient. Also the gas was a lot, and she told me that instead of payment for the first week I could have some of her fall clothes...thanks but no thanks!
Here is reason #2 I quit...well y'all all know that I get paranoid about strange men, well I am in my bed asleep and at 4am I get a phone call from a restricted number and I pick up thinking something bad has happened and its a man saying "This here is Jason, and I swear I wont let satan take over your life, even though hes a nice guy!" AHH Can I just tell you I was scared to death!

Too bad satan wont be taking over my life because I am a Presbyterian and you can bet I made it to church that Sunday!

I just don't get why people would call and say such things! I hate calls like that and then the next night I got another one the same guy and I answered and he said "Im watching you in your window!" I said "Who the hell is this?!" He said "I can see you!" I hung up, and told my roommates, we all think its just some random person calling random numbers but I don't know I just didn't feel safe getting up and leaving my house that early with sick people in the world!

So, back to babysitting...to replace my nanny job, I actually got a new family who lives 2 streets up from me! I love babysitting for families that live inside the belt line, I know that's such a stereotype, but seriously I know most of them through family friends and they are always so nice and I know who they are! Also they are usually about a mile or 2 from me and that's just perfect!

So the new family all started when the new mom called me on Thursday and asked me to babysit. She went to UNC with a family friend of ours and they just moved to Raleigh, well I babysat for them last night and their kids are angels! I loved it so I think that they along with the other family I have on Mondays and Wednesdays will be my new families to babysit!

So, the new family I got is this cute lady who went to school with a family friend of mine at UNC! She and her family are so cute! Her kids were absolute angels and I cant wait to sit for them again! The dad was the spitting image of my ex boyfriend of last year, well how he will look in a few years! It was strange!

Yesterday, some of us went shopping and I found 2 black dresses and a blouse to go with my black pencil skirt for work! I am excited about that!

My work/internship has been a lot of fun the past few times, I actually got to go out to this meeting and meet some really great people! That's my favorite part because you just never know who you will meet!

Well, until later on! I hope you all have a great Sunday!

Crazy Days!

Hey girls!

OH MY GOSH!! What a crazy morning!

So today was my first day babysitting the new little boy here in Raleigh. I had to be there at 6:30...AM and stayed until around 8:45...well there's more too it but i'll get there! I got up at 5 this morning, because I just couldn't sleep and I had to be up at 5:45 anyways. I slept all last night with my head buried under my covers and pillows, because DID ANYONE SEE ONE TREE HILL?? Well, I did and when that gas station attendant was dead in the back, and then Q got shot...I was scared to death!

So anyways, I get up at 5, watch the news for a bit and then head out the door...or so I thought! I get to my car, and its so dark outside...so number 1 i'm scared, and number 2 I was already running late!!

As I went to get in my car, my key chains felt lighter, and my car key had been hanging off lately but of course I didn't do anything about it because "there's always later!" So my key dissapeared, and I couldn't find it anywhere...I kept my composure and went into my roommates room and that BRAVE girl let me borrow her car!

So anyways, I got there 2 minutes late and the mom was still there...which is weird because she said she would never be there when I got there, turns out she locked her keys in her car too!! She is such a nice person, and we talked about what great mornings we were having haha! While she was waiting for triple A, we watched Good Morning America, and she likes McCain/Palin '08!

When I met her yesterday, her son was a very talkative outgoing kid...really cute! Her townhouse is really cute too, and she gave me the code for the gym and pool in case my roommates and I ever wanna use it! How laid back!

Anyways, so this morning she left about 7:45 and it was just "J" and I! I kept trying to make conversation, but he wouldn't say much..maybe because it was 8 am and I looked like hell...probably scared the little guy!

Well, after he ate we got in my roommates car and I took him up the street to his bus stop. His mom likes us to walk, but please! I had to be back by 9 this morning so that I could get my roommates car back to her so she could get to class...I drove his ass to the bus stop!
As I drove in at 6:30am, I saw that there were a number of kids waiting for the bus,
...also a kid ran out in front of my car, and it was dark so did I see him, no!
Good thing he was a track star! haha!

So J told me that wasn't his bus stop, and that the place he waited there were no other kids! I had a hard time understanding that...because it was in an awkward spot! Well, its 8:15 and again I have to be back at school by 9 and the bus hasn't come...so I said J-man wheres the bus? He says "I forgot, its not coming today because I am going to the museum...and they are probably leaving soon!"

AHHHHHHH!!

So I said okay, wheres your school because his mom said he knew how to get there...and he wouldn't answer...so I asked again, and again, and again! Eventually we got back in the car and I called the school they weren't good with directions! OMG!

Anyways, so I pulled out the laptop and tried map quest, but it kept freezing! It was 8:20 at this point and I was like, "Why God, Why?!"

I asked if he knew anyone we could call and he said his dad, so we called his dad and got directions, I was just to flying down the road and J kept saying, I hope you have your seat belt on because I bet you've had speeding tickets! HAHA!...only 1 or 2!

So anyways, it was so chaotic and I felt so awful because I thought Lord they are gonna hate me, I have scared this poor, poor boy and he will never want me to come back! Well we got to his school by 8:30 and while he was getting out of the car, I was yelling "EXCUSE ME!" to this guy crossing the street, bc I needed directions, and FAST! J's eyes were the size of pineapples! So I quickly said "Bye J, have a wonderful day, make it better then our morning!" We "pounded it" and then he went inside!

The guy gave me directions, and I made it back to my house by 8:58!!

I thrive under pressure!

J's mom called me ab 10 mins ago and was so apologetic...I told her it was the other way around, I was so so sorry! She said she hoped I wouldn't quit...which I would never quit! Its a great job! I told her to blame the bus system because that's the easiest thing to do! So that's what we agreed to do!

I am hoping tomorrow will be better, I really want to get J a prize so that maybe we can renew the relationship we never had! Any ideas??

Thanks girls, i'll post more later! I am on my way to meet another family to babysit for!!

Great Days!

Hey girls!

I hope y'all had a good weekend!!


So Thursday night, me and one of my roommates went to a party at Sigma Pi with some friends, one of them was so sweet and drove us there and back. He had his fun the night before so he decided to drive that night, thank God! We got there and I saw so many people that I knew from Salisbury!! A real good friend of mine that i've known forever transferred to State and is about to pledge Sigma Pi. I was excited to hear that!
A few minutes later, I ended up outside fighting with C from this summer. With him being 2 hours away its so impossible right now.
Is that just awful?
I don't really think it is...
An hour into the party, after we saw everyone, we all decided to go to Hillsborough and eat at this gross Chinese place (but we were all done for the night so we didn't realize how gross it was!) Just as I was about to eat my eggroll? I saw a little man standing on the sink washing dishes!! AHH! What would my momma say?
HAHA!
It was close to 3 am when we all came back to the house. I went to bed shortly after!
By the grace of God, I made it to my one class the next day! It was such a fun night!
Friday, we all went to some apartment party! I didnt feel good, so I came back early and watched Halloween on TV with my roommate!
I love that movie!
Before I left, I played matchmaker for my roommate and this GORGEOUS boy!!! He shags, so after I got home I taught her everything I know so she can impress!!!! They are both really cute, so oh my gosh I hope they start dating!! One of our other friends asked me out and omg I think hes so cute too...hes a red head and I love a redhead! It was such a fun night!
Unfortunatly, I had to be up by 6:30am for a hair appt in Salisbury the next day! My stylist is so good I just cant bear to find a new one! I got up and it was just pouring down rain!! The highway was desolate! Nobody was driving, and I kept sliding back and fourth!!
Then I saw the light...I saw another car, and felt so much better!
I got in the same lane behind it and we slid all over I-40 together, but at least I had someone to follow. Once I hit Greensboro, it calmed down a little bit...but I hate driving in the rain!
When I got home, I had to go straight to the salon! I went a good bit lighter, because the blonder you go the better you look (according to Reese Witherspoons mother!)
I also got my hair cut...I only wanted it cut to my shoulders, but OH LORD it is so short!
After my appointment I was a mess the whole weekend, sobbing and sobbing like a little baby because I thought it was just way to short!
I spent 2 hours looking up hair extensions, praying for a hair growth miracle, and thinking about getting a hair piece!
I know dramatic much?!

I am interviewing today with a cute family for babysitting, and another one tomorrow and I am really looking forward to it! One of them needs a tutor, and I am really not inclined to tutor anyone in anything except hair and etiquette, but it is just elementary school, and so it shouldn't be that bad!
Also, I came home today from class and found the TV on SOAP network and Melrose Place was on, I didn't realize that Aaron Spelling did that show too...wow that and 90210!
It wasn't bad, but I have really only seen it the one time...and then once in 5th grade when my babysitter was watching it and it was a little juicy for a 10 year old so I didn't keep up!
How funny though that Tom Scavo and Bree Van De Kamp worked together on Melrose Place too! Small world!

Have a great Monday!
