5:41 pm	Some information needed. Hello everyone, Sorry to use Kristin's LJ again. I hate to make your heart skip that one beat but I need some information. In the coming days I will be gathering digital pictures, Kristin's writings/poetry, and some things like that for all who would like them. I also have chat logs for any and all AIM conversations that took place while she was on her laptop, I can grab these too if you would like to revisit some old talks. Basically, I need everyone's information. Not just for this, but so I can keep track of everyone and keep in contact if you guy's would like. For instance, I've accumulated 3 "Rachel"s in my phone, all 206 numbers... I have no idea who is who. So if you would, send me an email (I work best through email when it comes to staying organized). As simple as your name, email addy, phone number and anything else you want, AIM, Yahoo, MSN, ICQ address, myspace, whatever. When I put this together I'll send you a link to the file, she wrote some amazing stuff and took some stunning pictures. Of course, there are tons of stunning pictures of her that I'm sure people would like to have. Anything else you can think of that you know she has that would mean alot to you to have a copy of, let me know. Pictures, writings, peices of art, music, ect. Thanks, - Ted Spiffness@gmail.com (360) 929-4179 (4 Comments |Comment on this)

9:13 am	A life lived with half your heart This will be my last post on Kristin's behalf, and one of my last on live journal. This past week has made me realize many things. Most of which are unbearably heartbreaking. Alot of which are very positive. Those of us who knew Kristin, cannot describe her to others. Those of us that loved Kristin cannot describe that love. I cherish your memories of her as my own, and I cherish you all. I'm so thankful to know that Kristin has you as friends, that together we enriched her life while she enriched ours. Today would be Kristin and I's one and a half year aniversary. Instead, I weep hopelessly for our loss. Life goes on. Life must go on. Kristin wouldnt have it any other way. As much as I can beg this world to take me now, to let me be with my soul mate, it's not up to me. Or you. Or anyone. Live for her memory. Live for her ideals. Live for her passion. Live for her. Kristin Leigh Roach was given life to change this world for the better. To bring heaven to earth. This legacy will not die. For me, I will live for her. I will try to live life as full as I can, without my soul mate, my future wife, the mother of my children and the grand mother of my grand children until Kristin finds me someone. Nobody will ever fill Kristin's shoes, or fill that hole in our hearts, but never stop being there for people. Never close people out. Kristin never did. As I said before, I cherish you all. I really do. I may not know everyone personally, but i've heard of you. I've heard kristin laugh about you, with you. Thank you. I love you. Kristin Leigh Roach, I love you. - Ted Carter spiffness@gmail.com 360-929-4179 (5 Comments |Comment on this)

4:10 pm	I look at the stars, and I see her... This is a most difficult entry for me. This is Ted, Kristin's love. I am sorry I have to deliver the news to you that the headache Kristin referred to in her last post was an Aneurism at the base of her brain stem. It was a severe bleed. Kristin fell into a deep coma in my arms and her brain shut off, not to start up again. The doctors did everything they could for her at Harborview to try and bring down the swelling but our gorgeous and amazing Kristin was gone. I am sorry friends. Words cannot describe the pain I am feeling, Kristin was my life, my future and my other half. Please feel free to call me: 360-929-4179 to talk. She loved you all. (18 Comments |Comment on this)

4:03 am	christ. three and a half hours later and i still think my god damned self portrait looks like shit. at least they cant say i didnt try. i even took the effort to get keys to the building at midnight and had the janitor and a public safety guy walk in on me. talk about awkward. how do you explain that its an assignment and not merely the expression of inner desire to be an exhibitionist? i have to get up in 2 1/2 hours but i just wanted to brag about not being the one to wait until the night before to do my final project. its done! even if it looks like shit... oh yes! and i had my first day at the frye (again) today and it was fantastic. i am stoaked like woah to work there and cant wait until sunday when i get to make my own meal plan there. radical.

1:49 am	sons and daughters of hungry ghosts i feel really tired and really fucked up. "I got a hand So I got a fist So I got a plan It's the best that I can do Now we'll say it's in God's hands But God doesn't always have the best goddamn plans, does he?"-wolf.parade. is a really fantastic band. im excited because i found someone to play music with. yessss. its 2am. i should stop updating the lj and keep doing homework... must write more... waaa... the best thing about finals week is seeing what endurance i have. it should always be finals week so that i could reach maximum efficiency and productivity with my entire life. but because this is a lj post i should at least say that my weekend was rad. i got to see my brother, my dog, my boyfriend, many good friends and the sparkle puppies, which rocked me to my core. xo and good luck on finals to ye all who have them.

10:25 am	i am feeling pretty fuckin good this morning. perhaps its because the hangover hasnt kicked in yet, or perhaps its because im listening to mayday lewis and being nostalgic, or maybe its because i feel like i can finally draw and so im not so freaked out by my drawing final (drawing a nude self-portrait), but mostly its just because i feel really good. amen.

10:50 am	march 8th i forgot to say that yesterday, i learned, was "international women's day" which is celebreated by most countries and the UN (and oddly enough not in the US, even though the first celebreation of it was in the US...). so happy women's day to all of my lj friends, especially those ladies who are continually breaking the stereotypes of what it is to be "female". strong and beautiful and not like the fuckin deodorant commercial. keep fighting the good fight. xo.

2:29 am	RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: No Subject i got another job. coincidentially, its the same job as my first job ever at a mere 16 years of age. i find that comical. however, its a cooler job than when i was 16 because instead of being dish bitch, i get to cook. that's gnarly. bring on the papers and the presentations and the inevititable end-of-quarter immune breakdown! i miss new orleans. straight to you.

10:39 am	i just read this horribly offensive "article" on the "pros and cons" of being a stay at home mother. wow, thanks AOL, you are such a great resource for information on how to live my life. despite the supposed neutral tone, it totally pushed for women to stay at home laying on things such as your own guilt, your child's maladaptivity (is that even a word?), and the inevitable deterrioration of your marriage. of course, this was all written by a person named "kyle" who clearly has no personal stakes in the matter... asshole. i think what i am most upset about is that the article was written for women. it is just as much of a possibility for men to stay home with children these days so why not write an article with no specific gender target? that shit pisses me off. in other news, i got to hang with leah yesterday which was awesome, and went to the barrio fiesta at my school which was also awesome. today i shall write more stories and drink beer with john stewert. i probably spelled that incorrectly. sorry, john. i hope you are all well... xo (Comment on this)

11:19 am	why being an english major is awesome, by kristin_roach i think that being an english major is the awesome because not only do you get to read really awesome things, but believe it or not you get to write totally awesome things. and then you get to share those things with a bunch of other english majors and get into fantastic debates. sometimes these debates become so abstracted that they boil down to a matter of sheer wit and stubbornness. sometimes i am scared of being an english major, like that one time last week when a girl in my class was on coke. that was pretty outta control. but the most awesome part about being an english major is having totally awesome professors that throw big parties for you and all the other english majors and teachers even, where everyone may drink their fill and create an amazing ruckus as other english majors read poetry. and that is why being an english major is awesome. by kristin_roach. p.s. oni, i missed you, and thanks for this random lj quiz!

11:48 am	im gonna make it through this year if it kills me im pretty sure there is a puppy being kicked somewhere in this city and i cant get to it and save it and that sucks. the girl that saved my ass at work told me i could pay her back by joining facebook. i stayed strong for so long... fucking facebook... however, i do think i found a rather dashing picture of myself to post up there. for anyone in seattle (or anyone who feels the need to rush to seattle after hearing this exciting announcement!) there will be a party at my shabby apartment that still has a christmas wreath on the wall on saturday evening. all are invited to what is sure to be an anti-climatic evening of smoking pot and listening to pink floyd... just kidding... i'm sure we'll listen to other stuff and maybe play some video games too... or not play video games and not smoke pot but perhaps some KINGS CUP (and listen to shiloh pilot, what?)!!!!!!!!!!!!! and i have a couch now, so its sure to be more comfortable than whatever party you last attended which undoubtedly included sitting on either blankets, a christmas tree, a cutting board or perhaps old crates... but for now its sunny and i need some of that.
