my plan? seclude myself in my room with my cd collection, thus forcing myself to finish unit 3 law...
my plan? seclude myself in my room with my cd collection, thus forcing myself to finish unit 3 law...
the amount of blogging by everyone has gone down considerably... even jaxs is dying. she used to post at least once a day.
but who am i to say anything?? me, the one who ordinarily blogs about once a week.. well at least im consistant! i dont tease people with new posts and then, once they're addicted, disappear... or get a life away from the computer.. whatever

jaxs is the best
my blog hates me and gets all sensitive whenever i touch its template. Now i'm not a big html person. but i do know enough that i can change the font size or add links to the side of my page or add a guestbook or comments.. but lately everything i do messes it up.. each time in the same way. but when jaxs goes in, she somehow performs magic. so thank you for fixing my screwed up page again!!, cause you know that me, being so neurotic, see the imperfections on my page and know that they were driving me nuts.

i hate scarborough town centre on busy days. You wait almost twenty minutes in line at macdonalds, just to get up to the front of the line to have the cash close on you.
i think i lost my sex and the city addiction. its on right now. almost over in fact and i have no desire to watch it.
did you see gilmore girls today? boys in tuxes are hot.. even old men..like rory's dad (even though he isnt THAT old).. hahaha if i ever end up going out with a 50 year old man just because he's in a tux, hit me.. HARD

Dear ,
This letter is to regretfully inform you that I will be leaving Japan Camera and the Japan Camera staff. I had come to this store with the intentions to work here permanently part-time at least until next summer. However, the commute to work took more time and effort than was anticipated. After a summer of employment, I have realized that it would not be beneficial to my academics or practical to continue to work at a location which is so far from my home during school.
I genuinely appreciate the time and effort that you have put into training me. I know it takes a lot to teach new people all of the workings of the Developing Lab. I also am thankful for the knowledge and experiences which I will be taking away with me. I have had the privilege to be able to learn to print pictures and basically have been given an “inside look” to picture developing, which few get to see.
Thank you again for all of the opportunities that working at Japan Camera have provided me. It is unfortunate that it did not work out. I hope that if the need comes, you will provide me with a favourable recommendation. To ensure that my leaving goes as smoothly as possible, I plan to stay two weeks so that you have time to hire a replacement.
Sincerely,
okay maybe you cant use it word for word, but it'll probably help right?

whohoo! i just got mentioned in christine's blog! and its not just a little mention.. its a WHOLE post.. hahahah be jealous i know you are. I love christine and although i havent seen her for ages until about a month ago, she is still basically the same lovable, sweet and sexy person we remember in highschool who all the boys secretly fantasized about. And although her blog posts are the equivalent of grade twelve english novels, i still read just to catch up... (however i do wish she be more specific sometimes with the people she talks about so that i can picture them and imagine them with her, as if i knew them) And even though i don't know of 3/4 of the people she talks about, i still feel comfort in the fact that i am in a way still part of her life. wow.. i just read that over and realized how sappy i am. But i mean every word of it, even though it sounds stupid.

you ever have one of those days where you just feel older? I had one of those days today.. it wasn't even big things.. it was tiny, insigificant things which for some reason affected me today. I love my friends.. old and new... even teachers.. they absolutly made my day today. If i had any contact with you today, THANK YOU
I had a great evening with my girls. Lying around, sitting on the kitchen floor (racs: non-alcoholic, alcoholic tequilla cooler.. hahahaha).... being indecisive about where to eat, and then jaxs taking charge (hahah rowr!) The chicken lady giving lis an extra wing cause as a child, she was gay too.. the movie and watching jaxs die of laughter when the fat chick on shallow hal dives into the pool and puts out the barbeque while sending the little boy up into the tree from her big splash. (by the way, that was probably the best part of the movie.. it kinda was slow.. but still enjoyable).. and then playing phone tag afterwards to make sure everyone was okay.

basically spent my day in comm....
in the afternoon a friend's boyfriend came in.. for no apparent reason i guess.. or maybe there was and i just dont know, well in my mind he came for no reason. and as i pretended to do my law essay, i peered up at them (but not in a perverted, i look at little children kind of way). it was nice just to see the simple way he would go over, and put his arms around her with a sweet "whatcha doin?" or run up and surprise her with a peck on the cheek. im so jealous... you know who you are! damn you!!
went shopping after school and saw jeanette and people from work... got introduced to a guy named patrick only to realize that i went to gifted with him.. he thinks jeanette is hot.. but then again, who doesn't? jeanette also introduced us to a whole new world of chicken lunches from grocery stores! haha and brad pitt on vanity fair is hot, except for the matted-down wet chest hairs on the cover..
christine, a new boy got hired today at your work.. he's really REALLY tall and very blond.. i told jaxs that he reminded me of nick carter "the early BSB years"... the shoppers boy had that really weird bowl-cut thingy that nick carter had.. hahahaha
dont quit honey.. theyre hiring more people! it will all be better soon.

my anthrax is growing.. okay it's not anthrax.. but it's definitly some kind of cash register disease. I showed one of my coworkers it, and she said she had one too!! so we compared and hers was darker.. more brown.. but mine isnt as bright red anymore.. so i guess its gonna get darker.. her mom said it was a blister too
alert the authorities
remember how a while ago sam was convinced she had anthrax? you know that raised red dot on the middle of one of her finger inside?
well now i swear I HAVE ANTHRAX!!! I get off my shift from work and i'm walking from the back stock room to the front to get checked out and i notice on the muscle part of my palm under my thumb, there is this bright red, raised dot. I had just finished doing the garbage so i thought maybe it was a fruit snack and tried to scratch it off. But then it hurt a lot when i scratched it and thought okay maybe i got a cut and it was bleeding and it hurts cause the dried blood was attached to my skin.. but it was soo bright red, it couldnt be dried blood and it was hard, i couldnt wipe it away. So my dried fruit snack theory came back and i tried to lick it (yes, this is what i seriously did). I apparently didnt care that it was probably fromthe garbage, i just wanted to figure out what the hell this red spot was.. so it tasted like metal.. which sounds about right since i was just putting away hangers also..
and i told sam before that hers probably came from slamming the cash register drawer on it, and she didnt know it.. but even though i was on register today, i couldn't have possibly slammed my "thumb muscle" in it cause i do a weird hip-check thing (which made one customer laugh today.. but he was hot so i dont care).. yeah so maybe it isnt anthrax...and it's some sort of cash register disease.. it looks exactly like a mole, but bright red, and even typing, when it touched the side of the keyboard, it kinda hurts.
but maybe its just blood trapped under my skin.. but how the hell that that happen??

Another wasted day. Maybe I'm stupid, but I'm the kind of person who thinks that if plans are made, they are actually plans and are not just stories told for amusement. I'm probably just being petty and immature to still be thinking of this but it seems as though everytime a couple of people decide to plan an event, others decide they suddenly can't come. I understnad that people have other lives to and must be a part of that because everyone does. And i know these plans were hastily made and not concrete, but the general concensus was yes. If you knew there might be a problem why wouldn't you say something? People bitch and complain when people can't come to their things even though they are told days in advance and complain how now everything has to change because of it. I had to call this person the day of the planned event only to find out that she decided last night that she had something else to do... and when was she planning to tell me this if i had not called? in the evening after she came home? Why wouldnt you tell someone that you weren't coming WHEN you found out you weren't coming? If i were told last night, i could have made plans with other friends, instead of sitting here at home. I would actually be doing something right now. Im not mad.. well yes i am. But i just think it is inconsiderate to make your own plans and not to let me know and make me waste my day waiting in anticipation.
i dont have balls
There are so many things which i wish i could say, but dont have enough guts to (however cheesy they may seem)
- tell the stupid bamburgh circle mcDonalds counter lady/manager: "I didnt order rudeness with my value meal" then asking her for her name and then having all the rest of the staff (who i am sure also hate her) come out and throw hamburger buns at her.
- telling a certain someone that they really have no friends and explaining each and every reason why.
- telling a few different certain someones that i think they are being big assholes lately.
- telling a certain teacher or teachers of how miserable they have made my life and other's lives for simply being themselves.
- go back to former place of employment and tell store manager of how much of a miserable bitch she is and how her hair looks like dyed bundles of straw
- tell certain former schoolmates that "secrets don't make friends" ...lol
- tell sixth grade crush that i liked him..cause then i would have gotten that illusive "first boyfriend" stage over and done with.
- explain to father why we dont really have a relationship and show him the list of "Things I Hate about Dad" which i composed in elementary school tucked in my diary.
- tell my TA that she just "isn't cutting it" and that any family studies teacher who hasn't cooked for 100 people yet or who goes into a panicked frenzy when someone asks her a science question is not the TA for me. And really, you should not be lecturing us about "accepting everyone".. and "not to put people in boxes". cause accept it, we're not two.

this is why i have separate groups of friends
why does it seem like everyone from a certain group is getting on my nerves? okay, maybe not everyone, but the majority. Its for little stupid reasons too.. and sometimes i cant even explain why. I usually just need a break from these people and everything is better. But the weird thing is, is that i havent spent much time with them in the first place. People just dont seem the way they used to be. and i know how that may sound.. but i dont really mean it that way. Some people who i used to have a blast with, i now find petty, and annoying. Others who i have never really talked to, are actually becoming closer.. come on.. im actually carrying conversations with eric yerro without wanting to gauge my eyes out. If you really knew me, you would know how miraculous this feat was.
It kinda amazing when you find new people who you;ve never really conversed with and find out what wicked people they are.. im not talking about eric of course here.. but other people who i've basically only started really talking to this year. How could i have only discovered them now?

basically wasted my halloween.. did nothing. stayed in did physics.. well maybe it wasnt a total waste.. my street was totally deserted.. i looked outside at 7:30 (which i would think is prime trick-or-treating time) and i see literally 3 people. So yeah that was strange and somewhat depressing. Also learned last night, that sometimes it is better to forgive but NEVER forget.. cause if you never forget, you wont get hurt again. And if you do in fact forget, it may just come back and bite you again and you'll feel ten times more stupid for falling for it the second time! People don't change, and you shouldnt expect them too. Well maybe they do... but the change is based on their fickleness.. okay maybe fickleness is too harsh of a word.. if it is a word at all.
Just wanted to say that im proud of my jess for pulling off such a wonderfully creative halloween mystery murder thing... even thought the ending was cheesy and the school was upset that mel actually wasnt dead, it actually got the school talking about it.. and that in itself is an accomplishment! Congrats girl!!
Tomorrow's mission: TRL for both ISPs

i found a sample of candies for men, and decide to open it and smell.. it smelled like men.. so i decide to put some on (dont ask me why i made this connection) so i dab some on my neck and i smell myslef.. and i smell like boys.. and i like it. a lot..
so i sat there with the edge of my sweatshirt next to my nose watching james marsden (who is sex in human-male form) on ally mcbeal. What's WRONG with me? oh lord if im like this now...
nevertheless, i will be wearing men's cologne tomorrow

im tired.. after a day of doing what? Wanted to do homework. Ended up watching the last 2/3 of billy elliot eating ritz crackers and fruit. I should go to bed, but then i realize its really only 11:20 (if you could the hour we gain) and therefore cannot cause it wouod be a crime.
i am insanely jealous of jeanette's (aka my soulmate, although i am sure she has many) blogging skills.. how can so much come form one girl? She must be really good at religion and english

changes
Talking to my mom today and she said something about how in the last few months its been so busy around here. I thought to myself and wondered how she could possibly say that. No one had visited, we haven't gone anywhere. Nothing dramatic at all had happened. Further into the conversation I began to understand what she meant. She was saying how so much has happened with us (me and my brother) lately and was not talking specifically about big events. Just little things that all add up and then seem like a big difference once you look back at them. And its true. If you are reading this, picture yourself about 3-4 months ago when school was about to end. You may not have noticed it during the time that the changes occured, but looking back, things are crazy different. People now have jobs, lisences and in some cases, their own cars. People have boyfriends and new groups of friends. Some have different interests and have goals for future occupations and lives which before were so unclear. People have taken up new activities and dropped old ones. And i know this is the way life is supposed to go, and im not afraid of change.. but does it all really need to go this fast? Im sorry, cause i know this is depressing, but to think in about 2 months time, people will be begining to turn 18. In 4 months time, we will have to decide what to do in oac and in about a years time, we will basically be defining the rest of our lives. Its sad that i think about these things, sometimes.....more than an healthy person should.

Im back!! im back!! and the conference sucked.. im sorry but overly happy people bother me.. Girls who giggle wayy to much scare me and when people like these are around you all the time, and all you want to do is sleep, it makes you want to hit each and every one of them. But i got free hair gel samples, a video of the Patriot (mmm..heath leger) and free lipgloss, so im happy.. dalton is fun.. way funner than i would have ever anticipated.. If anything good came from this conference, is that i know know everyone better, both good and bad qualities

I'm leaving on a jet plane...
okay maybe not in a jet plane, more like dalton's car.. his old beat up jeep.. but i rather be in there then in a humongous van witha whole bunch of people i dont know/like. So the hell that is this trip will start tomorrow... I am hoping it'll be fun.. it will right? Please tell me it will. And another bad thing is that for about 7 hours jess, simone and joyce will be gone cause they have to go back for field hockey. If you really knew me, you would know what that means. Adrian told me in one of his workshops last year, the speaker was talking about living in the moment and was asking people about things they wished they did but didnt do.. One guy got picked out of the group and said "i want to tell my mom i love her more", and the speaker guy whipped out his cell phone and the boy had to call and tell his mom he loved her in front of everyone!! Who the hell does that???
Onto a different subject... the last two days with my girls was wicked.. loads of fun!! Jaxs looked good... do we have any pictures of her hair and makeup? i want them! The centreville boys were nice...they actually tried to make conversation.. but obviously our side of the table wasnt as fun as the other side since matt left.. or maybe he just wanted to get a closer view.. hahahaha
Yes, all in all a very good dinner. I had curls.. and i enjoyed them thoroughly. Thanks lis for doing them again.. i'll be knocking at your door when semi time rolls by... hehehee..

its weird,, i think both of my urls are working right now.. interesting huh?
Today was a very blobish day... but somehow i almost finished my chem notes during it. I have no rcollection how or when i did them, but all i know is that they are almost done. However, i cant do anymore cause no textbook for me and i have to get them into skillicorn for monday... hmm how much do you think i can get done during my spare?
Played with my new washing machine and found out what what "the delicate/handwash cycle" means. I put my uniform pants in there. The washer literally runs for 5 seconds, stops and another 50 seconds later it runs again for another 5. Maybe its a little too delicate.
So the dance was stupid, and incredibly stressful at the begining cause i needed a photocopier to xerox the ticket list and it was already 7 and we couldnt get into the office and the other photocopier was broken and dalton was getting all stressed at me too, but what could i do? But me and jess had our laughs in our booth. You know the kiosk thing inthe front lobby that has food sold from it during lunch? well wee were in there. The front lobby was totally dark, and there were two red flood lights lighting up our booth, as we peered out of our window. At first I felt like a piece of rotisserie gold just baking in there.. then i realized jess and i were in a little room, with a window and a large red light, and felt that some dirty old man should come up and offer us money for a peep show. lol then mr stepanian walked into the lobby.
Today was a very blobish day... but somehow i almost finished my chem notes during it. I have no rcollection how or when i did them, but all i know is that they are almost done.

is it wrong to suddenly feel sexier just cause someone says i look it? even if they were joking and playing around, and you knew it? i like it when people say that.. and i know this stupid of me to think i am just cause it's said half jokingly. Maybe thats why i say it so much, cause it brings me so much happiness and i want to spread it around. hahaha.
I dunno.. today was a weird day.. filled with weird conversations about boys and girls and how you would show someone of the opposite sex that you like them. I basically admitted that guys are screwed cause girls are as complicated and messed up as they think we are. lol Also realized im a big fat flirt sometimes, but as soon as a guy responds in any way i get scared and want to run.. cause i guess im no longer in control.. i like to be in control.. but why do i constantly feel the need to be babied?
Talking about confused people, heather was wearing this survivor tube top and she had her belly button pierced and she had loads of makeup on and she totally did not match her personality, which jess called "motherly".. we think shes confused and still needs to find herself. I still need to find myself, but I'm hoping I'm not THAT lost.

everything in my life right now is like a peach.. life is peachy...
theres the soft furry outside.. i think im on very good terms with all of my friends and teachers..even lucciola.. i know its something a normal person is concerned about, but face it im not normal and i think about it a lot.. i worry about these things and am content and warm and fuzzy inside when i know everything is well with the world.. even work is great.. ahh..so yeah im not annoyed or angry or sad with anyone that i care about right now, and no one hates me, so thats always good.. hahaha
then the peach has a weird sorta, "well its alright and all, yet im still not sure i like it, but maybe this is what makes life interesting" area.. what fits into this area? well law and physics basically.. i solved that whole avn or sph thing.. and its physics.. i think i owe it to myself.. to bad i am barely understanding it.. well i kinda understand it, and you know who i have to thank for this? ms. macisaac! omigosh i cant believe those words are coming out of my mouth.. but yeah i actually enjoy her teaching me.. not totally in a i love wetzel way. but ebough that i think shes a really good teacher and interested in what she has to offer.. oh yeah and we had this whole conversation about how she remebers how mark was lazy in grade nine and still is now, and apparently she remebers me from grade nine too when she taught me.. you dont understand how scared i was when she said this.. but she said i was "pretty keen". i'm taking it as a positive thing.. but im gonna have to look up the exact definition of "keen" to find out if it can be twisted into something bad.. (yes, maybe i am a little paranoid).. so yeah and then theres 's the whole "i hate that stupid annoying girl from work" but it doesnt matter cause other people hate her too so therefore my hate is somewhat justified. Anyone else start unit 3 chem? are you ready to cry? is it possible to be even more lost and confused after skillicorn's seminar.. im sure she;s smart and all (okay, maybe not sure) but that woman just can't give a seminar. OAC law is weird with lucciola.. shes screwing up these deadlines.. she want our research in by october/early november... but my point (which i tried to tell her) was that it was stupid cause our essays were due the week before christmas break.. isnt the research the big part? so yeah off to downtown to do research for my first OAC ISP! ahhhh help!!
the last part to the peach? the hard bumpy core in the middle.. lets face it.. i got a month to do all of my law isp research and i am feeling soo incredibly lost.. i need guidance and help.. the only upside is knowing that i can carry it over no problem..very scared about the presentation/debate cause when lucciola's opinion isnt the same as yours she makes it known.. poor betty fung almost got eaten alive in class by her.. i mean betty had a valid opinion but lucciola almost bit her head off.. i mean she was basically barking/yelling at her.. i wanted to cry and it wasnt even my presentation.. yikes and i have also come to the realization that i am not getting my g2 in november... why? cause its a month and a half away exaclty and i havent driven since april.. so umm.. we'll see but im not feeling too confident right now..

i worked this weekend, as usual... yesterday was hell..usual for all saturdays actually. i was on fitting room.... which was hell cause it was a saturday and there were clothes piled so high that i couldnt see the sutomers anymore and i had to walk around the piles to help people.. this is what happens when youre short staffed... but even though it was hell, after the annoying fat girl went home, ricardo and krystal came in and helped, and everything was well with the world again.. hahah its so fun in the change rooms with those two.. she didnt believe he lived like a block away from me, and he didnt believe she had a baby.. so of course being the over dramatic people we are, this stupid issue turned into one big amusing fight..its something you would have to experience to fully understand it..
today wasnt bad, even though it was a long shift.. i spent most of it re-pricing men;'s clothes which are now on sale.. i got this big laser-scanner-gun thing and scanned everthing in the department and read the price on the screen.. and then i got to play withthe pricing gun.. found a new boy who worked at old navy..didnt get a change to ask him what school he went to though, and therefore i dont know how old he is.. aww..sniff sniff.. hahaha... he sort of had a mike daly personality though..
found out who rosa was... people said i looked like her.. however we did not look anything alike! first of all, i was chinese.. hahaha
we were thinking there must be another rosa working ..
today i was talking to a friend on the phone and she was amazed at how i actually kinda like going to work.. im thinking maybe its the people cause they actually do make the difference... the people i work with are wicked..even though there are a few i hate..like that fat annoying girl in the changing room on saturday..hahah theres actually an anti -(annoying fat girl's name here) group and im in it!! hahah with one other girl and a gay guy.... but its also the environment.. we actually sing and dance to the music when the customers are gone...we have fun.. the managers have fun.. one of them reminds me of wetzel, but happier.. even some of the customers are wicked.. hmmm
thanking God for: the little two year old blond boy jumping around the store in a fuzzy frog costume saying "ribbit ribbit". i helped him put on the hood thing that has the frog's head and eyes and mittens which were the frogs hands and find him a mirror.. i love that little boy..

evryone seems down right now... is it cause we are settled into school and the excitment is over and now all we have left to do is work and think about our own problems? or maybe im just aware of more people's problems... im not the only one in a bad mood now.. everytime i feel gross, i guess i have to bring everyone down with me.. lol..
yeah its not a good time right now for anyone.. everyone has their own personal conflicts to overcome.. and so do i.. it sucks.. but at least i think im almost at an answer...almost.

HLW 0A1
today's assignment: write a one page editorial on my thoughts about the world trade centre bombing.
seems like any ordinary assignment right? well the stupid thing is my teacher got the idea from the kids section in the star... you know "starship"? The starship on sunday requested kids to send in stories, poems or drawings about their thoughts on the whole bombing situation and they would publish some in next week's starship.
so lucciola walks in and wants us to write an editorial expressing our thoughts and views on the bombing, she then wants to send all of our editorials to starship...
we were like, um you do know this is something for 8 year olds right? but apparently she didnt care. so if you see an oac student's name from ward next to some 6 year-old's drawing of a plane, dont laugh...please dont laugh...

so long, farewell, alveitazien (sp?), goodbye
okay okay i know.. ive been ignoring my blogging responsibilities...im sorry im horrible.
welps summer is coming to an end.. and although it was GREAT summer... i still wish i could have done more.. but isnt it always like that?
anyways..
wednesday: had a sac meeting and went to see alana's boy toy.. he was alright.. nice. not bad to look at..hahahaha
we had planned to go do something that day or stay in with pizza and movies and games.. but i guess alana and racs had made other plans and forgot that we had already starting planning things.... so dinner didnt happen.. oh well. i was kinda happy to go home, was incredibly drained after that stupid thing (stupid thing meaning SAC meeting, not alana's boyfriend)
thursday: yet another sac meeting.. this one took what? 3hours? hated it.. after jaxs came in flick and we went to see american pie 2.. i remeber laughing more in the last one.. could it be that ive matured? or is it just not as funny? ate in the theatre some stuff i got from sobey's.. that chicken caesar wrap was sooo good.. i wish i could have seen it so i would have know what i was eating.. it was like a surprise with every bite.. hahahaha
friday: stocking the shelves at old navy.. finally talked to the old navy boy ive been eyeing since training.. first two sessions of trianing were with him and we working the same first day.. goddamn, it must be fate.. hahaha but theres something peculiar about this boy.. i will stalk and investigate...
finally got my bank account fixed AGAIN!! now i can actually use the damned debit card instead of making purchases with it, only to realize that the little machine thing says : "access denied, see main bank branch"
saturday: relatives came friday night for baptism, was supposed to go out for dinner withthem.. instead we went shoping for gifts and dinner with about 25 people.. wasnt as much fun as it was last time, just cause i think the service sucked (how long did we wait for a table? how long did we wait to actually be served?) and there were a bunch of people you really didnt know too well..but im glad i went.
cant believe everyone is gone next year.. it hasnt hit me yet that so many people are leaving..
sunday: baptism.. boring.. need i say more?
monday: havent realized that school is tomorrow, which is why im putting off doing all my sac stuff and the little speech about uniforms (which i know you will all enjoy ....making fun of me with) and which is why im putting off laundry cause im my head, school = uniform

i smell like strawberries
it was supposed to be a shopping trip for "just the girls" after a long summer of not seeing eachother at all.... a day downtown with me nicki and amanda...
but five extra people ended up coming.. so we were the downtown with yoyo, mark, leo and two other boys as well. it is very complicated to go shopping in a group of 8 people.. people get left behind.. people decide to go ahead.. people get bored while waiting for one person to getout of the changing rooms cause she is trying on the equivalent of a whole rack of clothes!! hahaha
but it was fun too while waiting.. yoyo and i argue like brother and sister. Anything from who's ass is bigger and taking more room on the chair that we shared to debating whether nicola was actually going to buy anything after trying on the whole store!
it was fun.. people i havent seen since well the last BBQ but still.. these are basically the only people i like from the BBQ.. minus the two boys who came along..
but by the end of the day i was tired and bitchy feeling.. and so was everyone else.. so we sat in the subway on our way home.. not really talking but laughing at secret jokes shared by only a couple of people while resting our heads on whatever or whomever we could find..
i got a birthday gift too from nicki and amanda!!! the body shop strawberry spritz thingy i was talking about, lip balm (also strawberry) and soap that i liked.. i was really surprised cause i didint even see them buy it and i was surprised that they even knew what i liked or even got me anything cause there was no need to get me anyhting and my birthday was a while ago
i am very content right now... there is a warm, toasty fire in my heart.. (hahah im a loser for saying that)

MY FINGERS ARE STICKY
it was a day of sticky hands...
our outing with mark and luke finally worked out..even though jac sen dropped out of it (stupid camp).... but yeah something which was planned actually materialized this summer.. it can actually happen!! we went bowling first.. hahaha very fun, even though i sucked very much!! 70 something is a good score right? hahahahah
then we went to LeSpot.. for pool.. and me and jaxs were very scared.. i felt like i was in some biker bar in Taiwan.. it was very ghetto there.. me and jaxs sucked sooooo sooo much... well maybe jaxs sucked more.. at least my cue ball would hit things!! hahahaha
yeah i think the guys sort of got impatient with our suck-i-ness... so we let them play a "real game" while me and jaxs gossiped about them and the other people in the place.. hahaha pool whores!
we then went to marks house for some food.. chicken legs!! they were pretty good.. i dont know why yoyo doesnt like them.. then again, maybe we were just really hungry
then up to marks room to point and laugh at things.. ghostwriter book!!! hahahaha and we looked at maxim magazines (careful not to touch the pages too much, just in case..you know...)

why dont parents understand? an age-old question i guess.. starting from when adam and eve first gave birth to cain and abel.. if i knew the story about how one of the sons killed the other, i would tell you a witty story about how it relates to modern day, but alas, i dont know the story, so thats the end of it i guess...
but really.. its basically a week till summer is over.. is it really that bad if i dont feel like i need to make time for you? is it that bad if maybe i would rather go out with my friends while i can? is it my fault i have plans for the begining of the week and youre working at the end of the week? dammit..

it feels like a goat rubbing against you
tonight was fantabulous..i was out with my two sammys.... lucky me! (arent you all jealous).. jaxs couldnt come cause her mom was mad.. too bad.. but we went to see a movie and well jaxs woundt have come anyway..cause she has issues.. but i still wished she had come. yes so it was great! shopping(well not enough shopping, but less is better cause then i spend less), talking about boys.. (ahem sam) and movie and food and a big toothbrush!! hahahah and who can forget my "malvern homies" sitting in the row in front of us, disturbing the peace!! hahahaha sam s got school shoes and sam m found boots she really like .. and i want shoes too but havent seen any i would die for.. (sams boots were really nice but im not sure about the material.. is that waterproof?) i think im secretly still hoping for leather ones that go around my ginormous calves...
hahah rat race was funny..everyone go watch it! i think any movie with breken meyer and seth green is worth a watch... a lot of well known actors are in it.. but the ending sucked.. that was a dissapointment

i was thinking today while i was lying on my familyroom floor staring at the stucco-ed ceiling (yes, it was a very boring day) and i realized i was finally 17. i mean ive been saying i was 17 for months now (your allowed to say your new age as long as its three months before your birthday) and so when i actually turned 17, it didnt feel like anything really that big. but today i realized that i felt like a friggin 14 or 15 year old.. literally. In eigth grade, i had such an idealized perception/image of what life would be like when i was seventeen.. i just thought being this old would be some sort of continuous party or something.. i wouldnt have imagined that i would be spending my weekends pretty much the same way as i did then. i know its wayyy better now than before, but i just thought there would be more.
proabably when im in my last year of collage or soemthing i'll be having the same conversation in my head.. about how i thought i would be living on my own, in an ikea decorated apartment (but it will scream me, and not scream ikea like last year's big brother house) and i will have a boyfriend.. correction, live-in boyfriend (hahahaha) and i will know exactly what i want to do with my life and so will he (we are very motivated/inspired/ambitious people), and i will go out every weekend.. to parties, to cottages.. or just strolling around town.. i will study by day, and play by night. and my mom will still be calling every other week "just to check in"
one day i want to not be self-contious when i eat alone in the food court of a busy mall...
i want boys to lust after me and pursue me like the way they do in movies
i want to leave my mark on society and leave a lasting impression wherever i go (a good one of course)
i want to be known as more than the smart girl whos a bitch sometimes
i want to be able to have enough confidence to tell people what i think of them to their face and not only in my head
i want to say all the things that i have in my head, tucked away somewhere, which i dont remeber right now

went to the bank today to close my account... we were getting crazy service charges.. last month was 13 dollars practically.. so i went to talk to the teller and found out the limit was changed.. i heard 2500, but it was really 25 000. so yeah we didnt have that kind of cash.. and didnt want to continue to pay crazy fees so we closed it..
i could have opened a kiddie account.. (note: sam, youre not scamming the bank afterall, youre allowed to keep it now until you reach 18) but i would only get it for a year and have to change it again.. so yeah i got a GROWN UP account..hahaha but it still kinda sucks..service charges if i go over 10 debits a month.and i literally get 0 interest. buti wont need thatmany debit stuff when school starts.

I'm baaaaaaaaaack!!!!
jaxs fixed my blog, it is not longer retarded and now lets me post... yay jaxs
i have the most wicked friends in the world!!! yesterday on my birthday they came to surprise me with hugs and ballooons!!! a big boquet of colourfull balloons!! the night before, jaxs and i agreed that she would get me around 12-1230.. so i start calling her at 1145 to find out when she was coming. the phone keeps on ringing.. i call her cell. it too kept on ringing.. i called her a billion times. no answer. i thought, maybe shes on the toilet or something taking a shit.. but then she finally picks up her cell and says she was doing some errands for her mom.. i though thats was a little suspicious.. jackie getting up early to do errands for her mom when we could have done them after lunch?
i thought they would all be at the restaurant waiting for me or something.. so i later go upstairs to put on my contacts and mid hand-wash the doorbell rings.. i panic cause i know its jaxs coming to pick me up, and being the girl that i am, i am not ready.
i open the door and there is everyone!! sam, vanessa (who got up early with jaxs to get me balloons), lis, and jaxs and the bunch of balloons.. hahah i felt special (whoohoo!!)
we went to caseys where nicole met up with us later.. oh and i had to carry this big elmo ballooon that announced to the world that it was indeed my birthday as sam sang (and danced) to "who let the dogs out" in jaxs car while we all watched strange men laugh at her (i love sam, without her, life would not be entertaining)
sadly, after dinner i had to go to work while the party continued at vanessa's... arg.. its okay i had free minutes all day on my phone so i called lis and went shoppig with her until it was 4. all in all a very VERY good day! to top it off, it was my last day at japan camera and i got hugs and my photo taken by gay men and sabrina (who is also wicked) got me her famous dip with vegetables (my digestive tract thanks her) and cake and bubble juice.
thank you guys, i love you soooo much!!

im freeeeee!! well almost
this weekend at work was pure hell.... it was only me and sabrina, which is really fun, except there was lots of work. saturday morning, we come and and set up.. then about 15 minutes after we turned it on, we hear a frantic beeping from the machine. we thought that the control strip we sent in was stuck or something so i go to look.... i start smelling something funny. i was gonna tell sabrina that soemthing was funky smelling when i realized it was coming from the machine and there was this sudden big cloud of smoke. i stand there like an idiot going : "uhhh" and a guy from the front finally tells me to trun off the power.. he comes and investigates and sparks start flying at him...we called my manager and we had to turn off the electricity to the whole store.. we stood in darkness until we got security.. my manager says i poured the water in too fast... sabrina and i think that she just want something to blame the mess on.. how can i pour water too fast??? saturday was hectic even though there was one less machine to operate.. then the priniting machine broke downa nd we had to call someone in the japan camera downtown to help us.. were such losers..
today wasnt so bad.. i printed all day.. we were actually on time with out one hours, unlike saturday when we were asking for three hours.. hahaha, and people are still willing to pay the one hour price interesting huh?
perhaps the only thing that kept me going was knowing that i only had 2 or 3 shifts left to go.. just tomorrow and im gone!! finally!!

the gay guys at work are the best.. when one of them dances and sings to the backstreet boys and wiggles his bum, and another checks out pictures of a man who he claims "has very good genes" with you (although i insisit his cousin is wayy better looking), and the other sits there with his big eyes laughing at the crazyness, you know its a good night
the world is ending
im worried.. and for thoseof you who know me, you know this is a regular thing...
i was thinking.. maybe i took too much on this year too early without realizing that i may not be able to do it all.. im sorry to get everyone down with my back to school bad mood... but i just gotta say this stuff. and dammit, its my blog
i got two oacs next year.. which means i really gotta work at them. one is chemistry.. which is going to be interesting..cause grade 11 chemistry was non-sensical enough (especially at the begining) i cant remeber anything that i have learned two months ago.. i dont know how to bond.. i cant name the stupid molecules.. and then theres law.. im hoping that somehows deoliveira teaches it.. cause paterna is gone right,, but i probably will end up with cafiso, and that is why im scared. i have SAC which i didnt think was really anything lat year.. but with melanie as the president ans the new reforms coming this year, it might be more of an effort than i had anticipated.. and now i got a job,., im hoping for few hours.. but want themoney... and i dont know what my course are!! should it be avn or physics?!?!?! i dont want either!! but must pick one to get my six courses.. ahhhh.. i feel so overwhelmed.. but then i thinkof sam with her crazy soccer scheduale (both at school and league) and think of her during the last month of school with her work and her soccer scheduale.. and it gives me hope.. but then again shes been doing this crazy-ness for years and im still a dribble-nosed rookie

this week has flewn by.. i had my first traiaing day on tuesday and my secod one today.. they were incredibly boring.. we learned "how to be friendly", "how to treat other with respect" and how to have a "passion to engage" we did go over the products too but not much could be done without the product and the store in front of you.. next tuesday i have to somehow make it down to eglingtion and warden by 10 for actual in store traiing..went home ont he bus today and noticed that there were three other old navy employees.. one i sat next to cause we took the bus together tuesday as well.. and when she got off her stop, there were still the other two..they started to talk to me and we found out we all got off the same stop.. one of the boys lives really close to me too..on casemore...so we walked home together until we got to the cat walk, and went our separate ways.. it was sooo nice to have someone understand the ghetto-ness of our area.. and we talked about all the fires and car accidents and how much the streets smelled while it was raining (it was spitting at the time and we knew the smell would be upon us soon) and i told him baout the dead mice i see in front of a certain house on my way tot he bus stop.. the shortness of the traiing and the people make up for the boring-ness of the training.. but it beats japan camera... only 3 or 4 more shifts to go!!! yayy!!!
i am incredibly tired and need some sleep i took a napon the couch when i got home.. jaxs is crossed with me.. cause our phones kept disconnecting (or i couldnt hear her for some reason) and i kept calling back and i think she was mad cause i was disrupting her.. and since i sensed she was mad, i got mad too..(life is very complicated with me and jaxs) all i wanted her to do was see if there were any t shirts left at american eagle in markville...i am going to buy myself a birthday present tmorrow.. and not a little birthday present.. a big expensive one.. hahahaha
i love me

how the hell do i write a resignation letter????
why must i sugarcoat: " bye denise i hate you and this stupid store! and you can kiss my big fat ass as i walk to my new job, with my higher paycheck and closer location! so ha! try yelling at me now bitch!" ???(denise is my manager of course) but alas, i must be nice, cause one day i might need her as a reference, and im thinking that if i say the above, she might not give me one..
so here i go.. trying to write a resignation letter, even though i have no idea what im doing, and i know i will probably be laughed out of the store once i give it to her because it will not look or sound anything like one.. but im doing it... cause i must quit and i wont spend a single day more there than i have to
geez, quitting is so much trouble, no wonder people dont do it more often

aphids are easily smashable
yesterday i got off at 6 and took the bus home.. i walk out of fairview and walk down to the sheppard bus stop.. i stop at the light and look down.. my white shirt was spotted with tiny bugs everywhere.. i brush them off with a look of disgust and embarassment.. i had no idea why all these bugs chose to die on me, and no one else..
i get off the bus at my stop and walk home.. again, i look down and notice my shirt and pants are full of the little things.. its like when you walk the bugs crash into you and die!! i was beging to worry.. do i have B.O.? was it my perfume? it was totally gross.. but i was relieved this morning that it wasnt just me, there was a whole epidemic of bugs.. phew!

BLING BLING
so this morning i wake up and watch tv and eat and stuff, you know just basically doing nothing since i dont have work till 4( which means i leave at 2:45) but then my brother gives me a message from yesterday morning(i was gone to work already when they called), it was old navy, and they wanted a final interview either today or tomrrow from 10-7.. i was like oh shit. . i have to go now before work cause tomrrrow im gone out of town...i was also like omigosh!! cause i totally was not expecting them to call.. since i thought i totally bombed my second interview.. so i run upstairs and shower and change and run out othe door.. i was totally psyching myself up for a on-on-one interview..cause it couldnt possibly be a group cause it would have had to be in a schedualed time.. so i walk in and the guy who the message said to ask for wasnt there, so i had to wait.,. that must have been the longest 10 minutes of my life.. i was going over all of my good qualities in my head and how i would go about explainging them.. the guy finally comes and pulls me to the side and says: "we would like to offer you a position at old navy" i was amazingly happy..how could he have said something which brought so much joy so nonchalantly? it took a few seconds for it to all sink in..so yeah i got my shirt, filled in my training times. and got out of there.. it felt like i was in an amazing un-popable bubble of happiness. i went to find julie at walmart to tell her and buy a new hairbrush (my old one is in two pieces.. i dont know why)
but my bubble was i guess, not so un-popable.. my dad came to pick me up from work, and i told him with this big grin on my face about my new job.. i could tell that he wasnt happy.. he asked: "so what about the library" and i said im gonna tell them i got a job at old navy!! he was not happy.. he had before told me that it would be better if i got the library job, rather than the one at old navy.. so i knew now that he wasnt happy with my choice of work.. he wouldnt tell me why,..somthing about getting more life experience at the library.. but i mean how much life expoerience would you get from shelving books??? i think a retail job would look wayy better on a resume..you could be mute and deaf to work in a library.. there is no showing of social skills...or even an understanding of anything more than how to put objects in numerical order
so eventually it turned into an arguement about whether or not i should write a resignation letter (he says yes, i say its just a stupid first job) and how im shutting doors.. when i kept on refusing to waste my time with a resignation letter.. he gave me this whole speech about how i never listened to him and how there were so many times in the past that i didnt when i should have.. and how he could never tell me to do anything, and merely just suggest things for me to do, and have me not listen ,,i told him yes, you cant tell me what to do, and you never will be able to.. yes, there were times when i should have listened to you, but because i didnt, it may have been bad, but i had a new life experience.. so therefore, it was good that i went through it..we sat in the car for the rest of the ride in silence, while i thought : FUCK.. we havent talked for years... and now that things are actually getting better.. youre making me not want to deal with you at all... really.. if this is how youre gonna be when we get along, i dont want to have anything to do with it, cause things are so much better when were ignoring eachother (well at least more peaceful)
i hate how when you feel so good about something, fathers feel like they have right to shoot you back down.
so this morning i wake up and watch tv and eat and stuff, you know just basically doing nothing since i dont have work till 4( which means i leave at 2:45) but then my brother gives me a message from yesterday morning(i was gone to work already when they called), it was old navy, and they wanted a final interview either today or tomrrow from 10-7.. i was like oh shit. . i have to go now before work cause tomrrrow im gone out of town...i was also like omigosh!! cause i totally was not expecting them to call.. since i thought i totally bombed my second interview.. so i run upstairs and shower and change and run out othe door.. i was totally psyching myself up for a on-on-one interview..cause it couldnt possibly be a group cause it would have had to be in a schedualed time.. so i walk in and the guy who the message said to ask for wasnt there, so i had to wait.,. that must have been the longest 10 minutes of my life.. i was going over all of my good qualities in my head and how i would go about explainging them.. the guy finally comes and pulls me to the side and says: "we would like to offer you a position at old navy" i was amazingly happy..how could he have said something which brought so much joy so nonchalantly? it took a few seconds for it to all sink in..so yeah i got my shirt, filled in my training times. and got out of there.. it felt like i was in an amazing un-popable bubble of happiness. i went to find julie at walmart to tell her and buy a new hairbrush (my old one is in two pieces.. i dont know why)
but my bubble was i guess, not so un-popable.. my dad came to pick me up from work, and i told him with this big grin on my face about my new job.. i could tell that he wasnt happy.. he asked: "so what about the library" and i said im gonna tell them i got a job at old navy!! he was not happy.. he had before told me that it would be better if i got the library job, rather than the one at old navy.. so i knew now that he wasnt happy with my choice of work.. he wouldnt tell me why,..somthing about getting more life experience at the library.. but i mean how much life expoerience would you get from shelving books??? i think a retail job would look wayy better on a resume..you could be mute and deaf to work in a library.. there is no showing of social skills...or even an understanding of anything more than how to put objects in numerical order

on the nugget
i was thinking the other day, while on the nugget.. that the nugget bus was sooo much a part of peoples lives in my neighbourhood.. without it, we would be stranded, or have to take three busses just to get to scarborough town... i noticed that it was weird that everyone called it THE nugget.. instead of just nugget...
example:
boy 1: "what bus do you take home?"
boy 2: "THE nugget"
people dont call brimley, THE brimley!!
boy 1: "what bus do you take home?" (he likes to ask this question)
boy 2: "THE brimley"
didnt that sound weird?

i hoped you all missed me
HAPPY BIRTHDAY JAXS!!!!
did you have a good day? of course you did! you were with me!. well sort of....
today i had work and jaxs came to get me.. i bought her a birthday lunch.. since we werent going out for dinner... after jaxs (who is the most wonderful person ever!) drove me to my interview at woodside library... and stayed there, so she and i could go hang out at her house after.. at 4:45 i had to leave her house for another interview at old navy... it was my second one, and it didnt go well.. it was a group interview.. me, and 8 other people.. he went around and asked us each a different question..the first one, he took notes on this sheet of paper.. and the second set, he didnt write anyhting.. which made me wonder.. so yeah i doubt they'll be calling me back.. but theres still hope in the library i guess...
last friday was the best day at work ever!!! i dont think anything can top it.. except maybe next next saturday...friday night, me and sabrina were the only two in the back the whole night.. and even in the front, the people doing the selling were all young people too.. so we turned up the music, and talked.. it was a very slow night and me and sabrina started to gossip about everyone who worked there.. (well only the adults) and about how we both have secret plans to leave... i even ate and drank while i was printing, so i didnt have to use my break.. it was wicked.. next friday night the same and next,next saturday..
i cant believe they trust us that much..yikes
yes i realize that i sound stupid. and really, its not big deal.. but now that ive been working.. every little good thing is a big deal.. cause they are so few and far between..
