Roommate Wanted!!!

Thu, 12 Apr 2007 22:33:29 GMT

I'm looking to move out of my apartment at Elmwood Manor, located on Elmwood Avenue (near hospital, Highland Park, and downtown) so it's a wonderful location. I recently got a job at RIT so I want to move closer so I'm looking for someone to take over my lease, which ends August 31st.

You would be moving in with another roommate, a female. Inquire for more information on her. So here I am posting on facebook hoping that people will notice and spread the word.

Rent is $370 a month (including water and heat), utilities, such as electric and cable/internet, are another 50 to 70 dollars a month...depending on how much electricity you use. It is a 2-bedroom apartment with wooden floors, great location, 10 minute drive to RIT and 5 minutes to downtown areas such as park, monroe, university avenue. Pittsford Wegmans is also located 5 minutes away as well.

If you have any questions or are interested, leave a comment here or e-mail me at laurenbeth.bain@gmail.com

i think jesse maleh is the most intelligent and charming person I have ever met. yes, he can be stubborn and frustrating at some points but he more than makes up for it in so many ways. i thank all the forces of nature and the universe that he came into my life. it just wouldn't be the same without him in it.

why is it everytime i make a lj post- it's an emo one.

Wed, 26 Oct 2005 23:10:07 GMT

hi. my name is lauren and i'm emo. :) there should be a self help group called "emo anonymous". seriously. :)

no... i'm just at my rope's end with my internship. i don't feel like i'm receiving personal growth. i'm bored to death all the time. i'm just not happy at all. i'm at a dead end with everything... i might have to change my area of placement if i continue feeling this way because... i'm unable to complete any work. i have nothing to say or write about. it's already the 8th week and... i'm STUCK. completely and utterly stuck.

i'm just really glad that i have marshall's (my research professor)support. i'm going to talk to my field placement director and my supervisor... i need to get the ball rolling. i have two choices- 1) enforce improvements @ my placement or 2) change my area of placement.

*sigh* i need to get things straight... i'm just all over the place right now.

disregard my emo-ness

Mon, 24 Oct 2005 21:08:41 GMT

here i am. as usual. bored out of my grab bag of a mind at work- the perfect place to be bored.

i despise the aura that has been hovering over RIT this entire quarter. an aura that causes everyone to reach their lowest point. twisted. fucked up.

it is amazing how aunt flo really puts a damper on someone's day... or week for that matter.

i am the epitome of super emo-ness. SERIOUSLY.

bear with me.

p.s. i do NOT like being in the vulnerable state i've been in. my emotions are way too easy to toy with.

Mon, 26 Sep 2005 21:19:02 GMT

you just... never know with some people.

Wed, 21 Sep 2005 23:44:35 GMT

*gasp*

yes, i'm actually making a post. i just felt a surge of desire to write something- so where better to write than here on LJ.

*sigh*

it is my 4th year of college. in 8 months- i am graduating along with many other individuals- some who are my closest friends. the thought of walking up there in my cap and gown- listening to al simone recite the same speech as previous years, seeing my family and friends out in the audience... when i think of graduating, i endure a mixture of emotions- excitement, anticipation, happiness, sadness, dread, you name it. why am i talking about this now? 8 months prior- i have no idea. i'm just typing out my thoughts. *shakes head in disbelief* if i feel this way now- i can't even begin to imagine how i'm going to feel in may.

it has been a tumultuous couple of weeks. i have begun to experience the "real world" by interning at the hillside children's center. that is going to be an experience within itself- i just know it. i am busy all the time. i am tired, freakin exhausted all the time. i knew this was coming- you just do not understand until you, yourself experience it.

someone is coming home soon. how is that going to pan out- i have no idea. i have absolutely no idea. i'm scared shitless. i'm overwhelmed. i'm also brain-dead- i never knew you could be overwhelmed and brain-dead at the same time. *chuckles*

doves- keep on soaring. even if i am not there as often as i was before- you guys are in my heart and i think about you guys every single day.

flux fusion- let's keep on dancing. like i always say- you guys allow me to escape into my passion. let's rock the world!

inhabitants of 245- you guys are the best. every time i think about you guys, i feel the urge to just laugh my ass off. thank you for allowing me to come home- to a warm and cozy apartment. thank you for allowing me to come home to a place i can call home.

to those who i haven't talked to in ages... but are my close friends- i think about you guys everyday.

baldy- already told you how i felt when i came over but i miss you- glad we had the chance to catch up- let's keep on doing that. love you.

my girls- you guys are indescribable. the smallest things you guys do- mean the most. i love you sooooooooooooo much.

Hi!

Yep- another result of boredom... a post from Lauren Beth! I've been home in Cleveland for more than week- and I have just opened a new chapter in my life. Just underwent a cochlear implant surgery on the 26th... I am glad to inform y'all that I'm MUCH better. It was quite the experience and will continue to be an experience throughout the summer and the upcoming year.

Tylenol with codeine has been my best friend throughout the tedious weekend. :-D Thanks TyCo!

Well, to sum it up- the operation was scheduled for 11 45 am- they gave me Versed to calm my nerves but to tell ya the truth- I was not that nervous. I think I was nervous enough the week before so that when the big day came- I was all "nerved" out. BUT I had to wait soooooo long- didn't go into the operation room until 1 30ish. It was really scary- there were so many big scary machines- but I was out before I could count 1. Tee-hee. Before I knew it- I was woken up- but couldn't stay awake for a good five minutes. It was not until 9 30 pm that evening when I could stay awake for more than 10 minutes... I stayed overnight because insurance covered a 23 hour, yes- a 23 hr, not 24 hr stay at the clinic. :) We were kicked out at 6 am (Mommy and me) and I arrived home on Friday at 7 am.

The weekend was good- the pain was awful but... looking back- it could have been worse. I wasn't dizzy or anything. *sigh of relief* Evan came in town Wednesday night and stayed til Monday- he was such a sweetheart. Truly. Everyone deserves an Evan. And- here I am- almost a week later and I'm just dandy. Only thing is the nerves in my ear are reallllllllllllly sensitive- it's annoying. And my jaw is stiff- it's hard to open it... *giggles*

I finally went out today! Went to the mall- so many cuttttttttte clothes... Put everything on hold- hopefully Mommy will go back with me later on tonight. I wanna work out- haven't gotten the chance.. so once I feel ALL BETTER- the gym better watch out...

On a different note- I miss everyone! Just wanted to thank everyone for their consideration throughout the weekend- each message from each one of you really brightened my day! :-D Thank you!

On another different note- I'm once again, confused. The opposite sex is really confusing. I dislike it. :-P I need to meet with Sabra!!! Alrighty- rant is over. Who knows when another post will be made. Cherish this! ;) MWUAH!

Tue, 18 Jan 2005 22:18:58 GMT

Hey...

Wow- its been a while since I've posted something... I'm at work- again... Yes- I know. I only post entries when I'm at work or sick. It's been an interesting... month and 1/2 for me. As some of you know and some of you don't- I met someone the first week back from Thanksgiving break... At first- getting to know him was just for fun and for experience, that's it. However, the more time passes- the more I realize how much I really like and care for him. My situation is a little bit more complicated than most. He's a United States Marine- just left for California on the 10th of January. He's in training for 45 days and then will be leaving for war in Iraq. *sigh* First- I didn't think I was "falling" for him. I didn't think that I had deep feelings for him. Sometimes it takes to "lose" someone in order to realize how you feel about that person. I guess you could say I was in denial. It was not until after he left that I realized how of a great person he is, how I wish I had more time with him. I guess everything happens for a reason. I worry about him.. I just hope that he takes care of himself, emotionally, physically, and mentally. Several people have asked me if it's love. I don't know. I can't answer that because I didn't know my feelings til after he left- for all we know, this could be loneliness. I highly doubt that though. Someone just suggested- maybe it's infatuation. No- I've had infatuation before. This.. is definitely more than that. I do miss the physical aspect but I miss being with him, talking to him, seeing his smile and laugh (one of my favorite things about him). We spent a lot of time together throughout the month. I've been writing him letters every night... he's sort of like a journal, an outlet. It's been really frustrating because he has not gotten ANY of my letters- I sent one out last Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. He hasn't gotten ANY. Talked to his mom this morning- she told him that I wrote- so I'm glad he's aware of that. He also doesn't have my address. ARG. BUT- he's writing a bunch of letters and sending it to his sister- and she'll give them to everyone...

*sigh* I have my ups and downs... Some days I'm fine... Some days I just wake up sad and cranky. I had a dream last night- it was basically about us trying to get a hold of each other- because that's been an issue. Wasn't very pleasant. I miss him terribly. The worst part is that I can't talk to him anytime I want. I am also concerned about his experiences once he goes overseas. I just hope he takes care of himself- he's keeping a journal. I hope his journal and letters to his family/friends keep him sane. I know that he will come back a changed man, I just hope not for the worst. Yeah... I find myself holding back on meeting others. I saw an old friend that I used to hook up with- and felt no desire to do anything, whatsoever. Met someone on facebook- he obviously thinks I'm cute but I'm just not interested. I guess I'm pretty stuck on him (the marine). I guess I feel a little bit better. I talk about him to everyone I see. :) I know my close friends are probably sick and tired of hearing me talk about him- but that's what they're there for. Support. Right, guys? :) Just bear with me... Time is the greatest healer. Please pray and keep him in your thoughts. He won't be back til October- I know.. a long time from now. Nonetheless, please pray for him- for me. Thanks.

I'm done for now. Mwuah.

Thoughts strewn all over the place

Hi.

I'm still a little bit sleepy. Slept from 7 pm last night til 10 am this morning... Yeah, I know. As some of you know, I'm sick with a mild case of bronchitis and a possible strep throat. It's been quite an interesting christmas break for me. I've been in NJ at Baldy's log cabin since Thursday. And, I've been sick since Thursday. Jesse and Mrs. Maleh-Hayes (Janie) have been more than wonderful to me. They've done everything to make sure I was comfortable. To really sum it up, my christmas break has been uneventful. However, it's been really relaxing- just wish I wasn't coughing non-stop. Jesse's family is really cool. We went to his aunt's on Saturday night for dinner- she has this... compulsive obsession with eggplants. (in a good way- it's really cute). Her house is overloaded with them... Everywhere you turn, you see an eggplant of some sort. It's really funny. She has eggplant pictures, chairs, blankets, figurines, and so forth. Anything you imagine- she has it. I wonder if she even eats them. I know my mom loves eggplants (the food).

Hmmm... Jesse's log cabin is way cool. It's so cozy. If you look closely- everything doesn't match- but Janie has organized it in a way that it DOES match. It's really nice... wouldn't mind having a house like this of my own someday. God knows I'll need all the creativity assistance I can get. I'm feeling a little bit better today- still coughing but not as much as before. OH- and my phelgm isn't green anymore.. it's more white now... hahaha- TMI. Too bad- that's what you get for reading my livejournal. :-D Hopefully we'll go to the city tomorrow or Wednesday. Depends on how I feel- I guess. Oooh. Jesse and I have not fought since we've been here!! Usually if we're together for more than 48 hrs- we're at each other's necks. BUT- we've been totally cool. YAY! *knocks on wood* Alrighty. Sounds like everyone had a good christmas for the most part. Now it's NEW YEAR'S! Be careful and safe!! MWUAH

GOD!

I keep on getting busted every time I start to post an entry. Steph just came in here and laughed at me. :-( Ironically, I was posting this for HER!

TO STEPHANIE! AND Y'ALL GRAPHIC DESIGN, COMPUTER DESIGN, ART WHATEVER MAJORS-

I NEED YOUR HELP IN MAKING MY LJ PRETTY. I'M SEEING EVERYONE ELSE'S AND THEIRS IS PRETTY! I WANT MINE TO BE PRETTY TOO! :-P

CURSE ON THOSE WHO ENCOURAGED ME TO GET A LJ. :-P

MWUAH

sigh

Fri, 17 Dec 2004 17:07:09 GMT

I'm really mad at myself... I refuse to believe that I'm starting to develop an appreciation for LJ. The only time I post entries is when I'm at work- (NLC). And, what do you know- I'm at work. It's Friday before break- everyone's gone... No one has come in yet. I've been here since 10. Oh well, I'm getting paid- so no complaints here. I'm hungry.. Meg came in here and was like "OH MY GOD!! I just witnessed Lauren posting a LJ entry!!" Pfft...

I'm looking forward to break... I don't know if I'm going home or not. Mommy doesn't want me driving on Sunday because supposedly a snow storm is heading our way... So we'll see what's up. I don't wanna leave tomorrow because tomorrow night is someone's birthday party. *winks* NJ is going to be a lot of fun- I don't know if I can be in the same vicinity as Jesse and Jess for more than... 24 hrs. :-D It's gonna be a good time. Alrighty- I'm done being a hypocrite. MWUAHIES!

Happy Holidays and have a Happy New Year!

OH- let me know if you guys are gonna be in town (ROCHY) for New Year's- we're gonna PAR-TAY!

Tue, 14 Dec 2004 22:42:03 GMT

Hi y'all!

I told myself I would NEVER fall into the trend of the livejournal community... I still strongly stand by that- however, I am writing an entry to inform all of you that I have a livejournal now... The only reason I have a livejournal is because a lot of my friends who like to conform to fads or trends have a livejournal.. I'm just getting tired of being locked out and not being able to see pictures and entries that talk about moi. :-D

ALSO- I'm bored out of my mind at NLC- I'm supposed to be tutoring but no one's coming in. Not that I'm complaining.. this just gives me something to do. SO- guys... ADD ME, PLEASE! I will read your entries, post comments, and whatnot. MAYBE I'll add an entry of my own every once in a while... Love to y'all.

MWUAH

OH- This is Lauren, by the way.. if you didn't know. I think it says so on my profile but whatever... If you're wondering about my LJ username- don't be afraid to ask. :-P
