| catching up |
[Feb. 14th, 2006|03:16 am] |
Hey ya,
Just writing alittle since I haven't in a few weeks. It's also 3:10am and I'm having a bit of trouble sleeping. I'd like to get some sleep since I have to work at 7:30 until 3:30 then I have an exam at 4 so if I don't sleep a bit now, I won't be able to until like 5 at the earliest.
We had a party over the weekend and it was barrells of funne! I don't know if I can say it was our biggest party yet (the third one we had. The other two were in mid-September and mid-December.) but it is definately not the worst. I'll get back to you on whether it was the biggest or not.
Anyway, I got drunk at it which proves to me that, yes, I am able to get drunk. It was the first time in a while that I have and while I don't go around trying to or anything, I drink maybe once a month if that.
So on to the next party, which I'm hoping to have March 11th for my birthday. This next one will be the first one where I consider myself to be "in charge" of it. I wanna make sure all my friends come to it and I wanna make sure it'll be funne!! I'm really looking forward to it.
Hmm, what else? James and I are doing great. Today was 10 months :O Yeah!
I'll try to get some sleep again and I'll catch up more later. Not that there really is a lot of catching up to do but I figure if I write on a regular basis, I'll prolly talk more about the smaller things, right?
Gnite! |

HeyHEY!
Been awhile. Feeling better since the last entry. As I suspected it was just a short term thing. Lasted a few days for the most part but I'm feeling well now.
Let's see what's goin' on. Well, school is in full swing. Down to four courses now which is probably drop to three as I drop Math. Dropping it a few reasons. #1: save money. I didn't get a student loan so I'll just take a limited number of courses now and then take more when I get a loan. #2: Math is hard. I didn't think it would be but it is and having a professor that has a heavy accent doesn't help. I understand him find but not having english as your first language isn't good when you're teaching something like this because they aren't able to explain very well some of the things needed to be explained when teaching. So that's fine and dandy.
I'm not sure what else to write in here. Just enjoying some simple things right now. Not really under any major level of stress in any way. Happy and content. :) |

It seems to be that time of the... bi-month again. Not quite sure but I'm not feeling very well right now. It's not a physical thing tho. I was kinda ill a few days ago but luckily I think it was just a 24-hour bug because I was fine after a day or so. But now it seems like I'm emotionally ill. I just kind of feel a bit down, or saddened or depressed. I'm not really in the mood to do anything. I want to go for a walk but there's nowhere I want to walk. I want to listen to music but there's no music I want to listen to. I want to talk to someone but at the same time I want to be alone. I'm tired but I don't want to go to bed just yet. I could read or study. I'm just kind of confused right now. Tomorrow will be a busy day for me and I'm not looking forward to not having any free time to myself. I have three back-to-back classes tomorrow starting at 10:30 and then I work for eight and a half hours at 3pm. Maybe the idea of going back to school isn't really as exciting to me as I was hoping. I'm worried that I won't be able to afford it really. My mom said she'll throw me the money if I need it and I pay her back and while that's prolly better than getting a loan because there's no interest payments or anything, I feel bad getting money from a particular person. Maybe that has gotten me down? I guess I just have some concerns now about some things that aren't a particular problem at the moment but they'll keep building up and will interfere with my moods until they've desolved again or I've fixed them for good. Sometimes I just get so down in fear of what might happen in the near future and even the distant future. I should be looking up though. After tomorrow, I have all day Saturday free! I'm really looking forward to going downtown on Saturday! And I am looking forward to going back to classes! I guess I worry too much about the behind the scenes stuff and don't focus enough on the front stage happenings? Maybe it's a chemical balance that will cure itself with some sleep? |

So it's new years, 2006. Well, technically not anymore but to me it's still January 1st since I haven't gone to bed yet.
So my quick year-in-review? 2005 was a year to remember for me! Probably the most eventful year in my life in many ways. I met a lot of amazing great people. Greater established relationships I made previously. Cemented ones I already had while letting go of ones that I don't think would have carried themselves on for various reasons. Had a great summer with some roommates that I really liked living with. The fall presented itself with more funne roommates as well! Found some good music, movies and books, which doesn't happen often with me as I'm not a huge book reader nor am I big on movies. But probably one of the most significant things of 2005 was that I finally found a special someone in my life. I now finally have something to look forward to in the short term. Before I'd always have to look ahead weeks or months for something that would keep me going, whether that be a weekend, certain trip, summer vacation, concert, etc, but now I can look ahead just hours or days for something to make my happy and in this case it's a certain someone. I can safely say now that I'm happy with my life right now and with the people I choose to surround myself with. I know some of the greatest people in the world and it's a great feeling to know that I'm not ending 2005 and entering 2006 alone but with someone by my side. Thanks James for being you and helping me at least find some direction and purpose for my life to go toward! <3 It may not be the choice of many, and may be frowned upon by others but for me, it's something I know I have to do in order to be happy in life and I'm ready to accept that and with you by my side, I know I'll be fine!... not just fine; great! I see great things for 2006! It's our year! |

it's 1:52am now. I'm just here eating some frosted cheerios before bed. I already slept a bit earlier. I was DEAD tired. I was supposed to hang out with BJ but he had slept through the evening so we didn't which was prolly for the best because I was so tired! I slept from maybe about 9pm until I woke up at 1am. I'll be going back to bed again soon as I work tomorrow at 7 but still!
It's technically one more day til new years! James is gone for the week but he'll be back tomorrow evening. Exciting stuff! I might be spending new years in the car or maybe, if we get there in time, down on the waterfront, which would be neat! But James will be back so I'll be happy!
A pretty quiet week all in all. James is gone for the week. Gina has been gone for a week and she'll be back next Tuesday... the same day I return to school. I can't believe I'm already heading back to school. It's been about 8 months since I was in school last but this term is creeping up on me so fast, I'm not sure if I'm ready for it! Buying books, going to class, writing assignments, exams... I'm kind of looking forward to it but at the same time, I'm somewhat dreading it as well since I took last term off because I was getting sick of school and just stopped caring. I want to do well this term but I'm not sure if I'm in the right frame of mind going into the term. We'll see though. It's not even set in stone whether I'll be even able to stay in school though. $$$$
Here's my schedule thus far:
Psychology 3084 - Mon/Wed/Fri 10:30-11:30
Psychology 3224 - Mon/Wed/Fri 11:30-12:30
Math 1000 - Mon/Wed/Fri 12:30-1:30
Computer Science 1206 - Tues/Thurs 4:00-5:30
Anatomyy 1010 - online course
I'll have more about each course when I attend a class or two. |

homeward bound in less than 48 hours. That's right, I'm going back to newfoundland for a week for Christmas. Leaving on thursday the 15th, back on the 22nd. In some ways I'm looking forward to going home but for the most part, I'm not really. I'm going to be missing a lot of stuff going on while I'm gone, which is unfortunate. I'm looking forward to seeing family and stuff but, I dunno, aside from that, there's really nothing else to look forward to. I feel selfish because I don't want to go home. It's just not really the time I want to go home. I chose to stay here for Christmas because I wanted to work on Xmas and make extra money. I'll be working New Years too and make lots of money. I would have rathered go home for a week in January or even earlier this month or something. I suppose being away from home for over three years now, I've come to get commitments of my own that I'd like to work out on my own. Going home is always a treat but I think I might be getting old enough that now I don't even have to go home for Christmas if I live far away from home. Also, whenever I go home, I get kinda depressed. Just because of where it is and the lack of activity going on. It's just such a dull place. I'm not just saying that because I've become acustomed to living in the city. Yeah, that has had a part in it but it's just that I've learned that I was always somewhat depressed there and now I have something to compare it to. There's literally nothing for me to do except read, watch TV, go on the dial-up internet and go for a walk. There's no stores. No hang outs and really nobody for me to do anything with. So in addition to going home when I don't really want to and miss things I could be doing here, I'll be bored regardless and be bored for 7 straight days. And to make things slightly worse, when I come back days before Christmas, I'll be lonely after Christmas too as James is going to be gone from the 25th to late on the 31st so a time that is normally somewhat down for me is going to be even moreso. So the next two and a half weeks aren't all that up. On a side note, I hope to be returning back to school in January, which is another thing I'm partially looking forward to. School always annoys me to somewhat of a degree. So knowing that I'll be spending the next four months in school, I know I'll get sick of it fast but I am looking forward to having something to do with my day other than the same old work, sleep, work, sleep, etc. I just hope I get my student loan or I might have to spend the next eight months work, sleep, work, sleep, etc. |

Sarah Slean in 3 hours! I can't wait! OMG!!!!
So lately I've been getting these random people adding me to their MSN. I think all of them are like Spanish or from Mexico or something. I don't understand a word they say to me and today someone added me and opened her webcam to me. She wasn't naked or anything but she was just there looking at the screen and I'm like "what's the point of this? are you a wannabe slut or something?" She wanted me to open up my cam too but I didn't. BLOCK!!
I've been having dreams lately... which isn't weird but I often don't remember what I dream so to remember two in one day is kinda weird... well, maybe not. Whenever I remember my dreams, they get remembered in groups. So these dreams are different from older ones where before they would revolve around me losing something or forgetting something and having to go and try to find what it is I forgot. For example, last year before going home for Xmas, I was really set on bringing some pictures with me and a week before, I dreamt I forgot the pictures and was on the plane so it was too late to get them and I was so disappointed. Other times I'd dream that I forgot something at home and I'd run home to get it and two things could happen. Either (a) I'd search and search but be unable to find it or (b) I'd find it and run back to wherever it is I was but it would be too late. However, last night, one of my dreams involved me leaving a bookbag somewhere and I had to take a bus for whatever reason. So I'm on the bus and I realize I left my bag and I was all distraught so I got off the bus (leaving behind an offer from Paul to drive me back when his stop came...?) and eventually found myself in the basement of Tim Hortons where I found my bag, and everything was fine. I was relieved and all that. I just think the transition of my dreams in comparison to real life is very interesting and accurate! :) |

I'm too lazy to gather up emails and send this out so I'll just post it here cuz it's funny!
Top 10 Reasons why The New Palace is the WORST Bar in Halifax
10 - They have cages to dance in
9 - The Bouncers... Are they aware that they are bouncers at the Palace, its not the secret service, stop acting like you are the bouncers for the most elite club in the world.
8 - Why is it after one drink, the girls there act like they just polished off a 12 pack??
7 - Could there be more piss on the bathroom floor...
6 - Their dollar drinks are composed of 90% pop, 8% water, 2% vodka....
5 - The crazy guy who is always there in the tight jeans dancing like he has just done a kilo of cocaine
4 - The abundance of bling bling, where do you buy such hideous fake jewerly?? Complete with Sean Combs, Fubu, Ecco, or other matching clothing
3 - The VIP room... basically if you worked in any food establishment from here to japan or if you are the friend or even the friend of friend or any girl dressed like Paris Hilton you are granted access to this VIP room.... There are more people in there then in the rest of the club
2 - Every sunday there is a new Hideous Drunk donkey that gets up on stage for sexy legs hoping that people will vote for her because she is so hideous it is now supposed to be funny..... Hey Donkey... no one is laughing with you......
1 - Not being allowed in with Ripped Jeans... I'm sorry Palace.. I didnt realize you were a black tie establishment, I did however notice that 250lb walrus just stroll in in a mini skirt and tube top..clearly that image is much more beneficial to the reputation of the palace as opposed to the jeans with the ripped knee. Oh wait there goes a guy with 8 pounds of fake gold around his neck... again, much better image for the club...well done palace.... keep up the good work
#5 is funny cuz I seen him at the Dome a few times and once at Reflections too! He's so funny!!!
I haven't been to the Palace in almost two years. Someday I'll return... |

It's been far too long... far too long!
Lots of good interesting-to-write about stuff could have been written in here but I was lazy. I was spit at and kinda felt threatened a few weeks ago but all seems to be well now.
A few hours ago I discovered that we have cable. Why am I here? Because I don't really care THAT much but now I can watch the Simpsons and such but I doubt my life will ever revolve around the times TV shows come on.
Halifax Christmas parade is tomorrow. Hard to believe Christmas is so soon. Wow! I have so many people that I want to get things for. But little idea in what to give. Going home for Xmas too on the 15th of December. Hopefully it'll be funne.
That's it for now. Talk to ya'll later! |

hi all
Just sitting here waiting for my hair to dye itself. Gina and Kim helped me put some non-permenant black hair dye in my hair. They both think it probably won't dark it too well but I'm hoping it does the job. It'll be part of my unplanned Halloween dressup thing. w00t!
Hmm... I guess that could be it. Shoppers is done and over with. A good three months and it was kind of bittersweet leaving as I was working with some funne people on my last shift but alas, I dreaded going to work so now it's over and I'll remember the fonder memories over the not-so-fond ones, hopefully.
Still working on my hmoepage. It's coming along nicely and I hope to have it up within a few weeks. I think it's neat. I wanna get some peeps to check it over and see if they have suggestions and stuff.
I think that's it for me to write in here now. See everyone downtown tonite for halloween? w00t! |

HeyHey!
Me here writing a bit to update before I go to sleep.
Let's see what's up.
I work tomrrow 7-3 @ tim hortons. I forget if I said this before but I'm fianlly back at my old store and I'm glad. I like it for the most part and Liz, the manager, is the best boss ever! I still work at shoppers but I put my notice in for a bunch of different reasons. mainly because when i work, i get so bored standing at the counter with nothng to do and that honestly drives me nuts. I can't stand having nothing to do like that. Also, working two part time jobs isn't bad except after three months of barely having a day off, i'm really starting to miss simple things like just being able to walk around. having a schedule that has me all over the place timewise is starting to mess with me so I pretty much have to organize my day to ensure I get enough sleep and that means taking daytime naps so I miss doing stuff and whatever. Plus Liz offered me mondays-fridays 7-3 so that gives me evenings and weekends off, which is awesome!
gina and kim are funne to live with. always grande times with those two!
james is doing good too. school and work might be stressing him out a bit but hopefully i'm somehow cancelling that out for him thus keeping him at least somewhat sane (hard to do with me around. LOL).
i'm working on a bunch of side things to keep me busy all the time. hope to have my new homepage online sooner than later. maybe within the month! also, i'm working on volume 4 of my mixing CD series. where i mix dance songs together to make one CD's worth of music. should be great! can't wait to get that done! and me and gina are gonna make a crazy CD too! LOL! that's gonna be funne times as well! Dj Mike back at ya! I also still have so much to organize on my brand new computer that i bought! that's an ongoing project. i'm a stickler for organization when i want something organized.
I think that's it for the general catching up. talk to ya soon |

It's been quite a while since I last wrote in here. It's 6:35am and I woke up about two hours ago because I needed to pee but couldn't get back to sleep. I work at 8 though so I guess I'm up for the day. I didn't want to be up yet because I work from 8-3 and then from 4-12 so I'll be working all day. I did sleep yesterday though from 10-4 and again at James' for two or three hours plus what I got earlier of about four hours or so.
So yeah, I finally got a new computer and it's great! It doesn't lock up on me at all, ever! W00t!
James and I are great. I don't think I've ever been happier. I have something to look forward to every day now, which is something I've never had before. Almost six months :O
I moved to a cool new place too. Well, new place. It's alright but it could be better. I shouldn't complain. I live with Kim and Gina which is always a barrel of monkeys!
Not much detail as I'm just writing in here for a quick catchup and stuff. I should be writing again fairly soon. |

Besides a minor stress and a near-future major stress, life is wonderful right now. I'm happiest I've been in a while. I feel wanted and am in constant wanting. It's a wonderful feeling!

| fixed |
[Jul. 29th, 2005|10:45 pm] |
Just wanted to write that things are working out well.
-my computer seems to FINALLY be fixed. All it was was dust caked to my fan and CPU thing that caused it to heat up WAY too much and as a result, my computer would lock up constantly whenever I did too much.
-I think I may have been moved to the Halifax Ferry Terminal for working now, as opposed to the dump store on Spring Garden. Makes me happy. I'd rather have more funne people to work with but considering I barely know anyone I work with anymore, I shouldn't complain. At least I get a tonne more tips now and we actually get customers.
-I also have a new job starting at some point this week with Shoppers on Spring Garden. I thought I screwed it up earlier in the month but nope, it works out and stuff. I just hope I'll like the job enough to want to stay there because I'd hate to get hired and realize I don't like it because I'd feel SUPER bad about quitting. So I guess I'll stop handing out resumes now in case I get an offer for a better job.
-Found an apartment. Well, so far. Me and Kim have been looking at a few over the last few weeks and we found a nice place on Bliss Street. It's nice but kinda small, I think, compared to a place on McLean Street which was kinda big and cheaper but Kim didn't like it and the landlord kinda seemed a bit sketchy or something. Not as likable as the BlissSt. place so we decided to take Bliss St if it isn't taken yet.
-Got a haircut today. I like it! It looks good. I don't really miss my long hair like I usually did when I got my hair cut. It works!
-For some reason my mood hasn't been reflecting all the goodness tho. I should be happier than I am. I need to figure out what's wrong but it's not a huge deal. I'm happy enough for the time being.... |
