Marriage in 2 weeks?

I generally like people...
that is until they fall in love.

I feel like I'm going crazy!
It seems like whenever I get a best friend they always seem to leave me for a boy. Not that there is anything wrong with that, I'd do the same thing for the most part, but I just wish I could find a good friend that's a girl that won't leave me. Bros before hos sorta deal...
It's just frustrating to be best friends with someone who is going to get married soon. Someone who is attached to the hip of someone else. It's like I've been replaced. Again.
She keeps talking about everything that's going on in her life and now I don't even give a crap. I don't get it. Before I was replaced I was always interested in what she had to say but now it's just like I want her to shut the hell up and get married and go away already.
Everything is just frustrating and I wish she knew how I am feeling about the whole thing but I don't think she gets it because she's never been through it herself.
School is driving me nuts. Is graphic design really my thing? I'm not very good at it but maybe I just lack determination and motivation. I know I have it in me I just don't know how to get it out.
Frustrating.
I wish I could figure out my life right now.
I wish I knew what was going to happen. UGh.
I wish I knew if I was ever going to find the one.
I wish I had good friends again.
I wish I felt normal again.
I wish too much.

Hallmark Stalkers.

To: Human resources, Hallmark Cards
Re: Only sixteen shopping days left

Thank you for taking the time to review my resume. I haven’t got any experience with greeting cards or with graphic design. But this morning it occurred to me that you need a new holiday. Mother’s day is fine, but some of us have lost our mothers. Not everyone has someone share their life with, Hallmark. But we all have one thing in common. We all have strangers on the edges of our lives. We can all be secret admirers. Look around the next time you’re at the mall. Or look online. Social networking sites. The Internet is full of people to secretly admire. There’s a girl who makes detailed maps of her neighbourhood and she knows a boy who hates Allen Ginsberg - except for one line that he thinks is perfect. He has crooked eyes and takes all these pictures of balls bouncing. That is his obsession, bouncing rubber balls. He knows a girl who, in every picture, is pulling her shirt up to show off her belly. She's all like, "What's up? A camera? Yeah yeah. Let me get my belly out." She looks so happy just to be here. She knows a trashy girl in a tank top, wearing a little too much makeup, out drinking with her sorority friends in every picture. She has bleached blonde hair and only one interest. Carnival of Souls (1962). What ever happened to secret admirers? Are they just stalkers now? If you notice someone, if you pay too much attention, that's weird. All of a sudden you're that guy who sits on the bench in the mall, right in front of the store where she works and stares inside all day. Or, worse, you're the guy who keeps going in. The guy with the Orange Julius who keeps saying, "I'm just browsing." But I love writing notes to strangers. "You have the best laugh I have ever heard. The only thing I know about you is that you work with maps and you always take the second straw from the dispenser - I do that too!" And I don’t think I’m alone, Hallmark. International Stalker Day. I have to go decorate my room.

a new seed

First of all, welcome to all who have happened to stumble across my blog.

I have had a blog since I was in the 7th grade over at livejournal.com but I have recently decided to rebirth and travel over here to blogger.com.
Anyways, without further adieu, Hello! My name is Katie!

I am me and that's all that I need to be. I am doing this blog for myself and no one else. If there happens to be people who read my blog, good for them and I hope that we can become friends, but as for now you can just think of me as that girl on the internet...that is if we don't know each other via real life.
I feel as though I should explain the title of my blog. Many people have asked me about it because it has been my screen name for several sites. We Are Satellites. It basically is an insight to us as human beings. We all revolve around certain things, much like satellites revolve around the Earth. For a while I had the screen name Experiment With Hype, but that was during my highschool-figuring out life stage of life. It wasn't until I turned 19 that I figured some things out and decided to retire that name and move on to We Are Satellites. We really are. We revolve around people, products, life-styles, objects, knowledge, life.
So I guess I should say a bit about myself as a people before I close this entry.
1. I'm 19-turning 20 in June.
2. I attend BYU-Idaho (yes, that is that Mormon college and yes, I am Mormon)
3. Just because I'm Mormon doesn't mean that I am all the assumptions that come with it.
4. I am an art major emphasising in graphic design.
5. Generally I am a real person, I tell it like it is...but I still love everyone for who they are and accept their life choices.
6. Just beacuse I believe something doesn't mean everyone should as well. My opinions are my own based souly on what I think and nothing else.
7. I don't talk much about politics.
8. I am not picky, I just know what I like and just because I say I hate something doesn't mean I stay away from it (aka I hate steak but occasionally I will eat it.)
9. Hugs are my favorite thing in the whole world.
& 10. I am loud and random and think weird things...so just accept for what it is.

Yay! Okay! So I'm very excited about this blog. 1 2 3 GO!
