Haven't Written In A While...
05.11.04 (10:41 am)   [edit]
Alright, so it's been a while for sure... I don't have the internet so it's going to be even longer I'm sure until the next time. Lack of internet is really painful... *dieing*

Anyways, so don't mind the link post... had to do it because I don't know the email thing for this stupid computer and I don't want to print a page with just a few links on them, and well... frankly Scarlett... I just don't give a damn.... arg!

LOL. Alright, I've had enough wit for one day... I've been saying witty things all day, it's kinda fun to know that some of the funny things I say go over almost everyone's heads. Hehehe... stupid little kids. And by little kids I mean, children who are really only 2-5 years younger than me, but have maturity levels of 3 year olds and they mean it. I mean, I'm not exactly the sort of person who can talk freely about issues of maturity. So whatever.

There's only so many minutes left of class, 10 maybe, not sure. Then I can go home, and shower... I feel gross. Maybe Aiden will wait for me.... *hopes* We'll see.

By the way... I haven't missed anymore classes in a while, except for yesterday, but that was because Bill passed away the night before, and I just didn't want to go, and I'll miss the end of Friday for the funeral. Death is depressing. Please don't kill yourselves people!!! It's not the natural order of things.... pfft. Oh well.... do what you want.

Alright, so I'm going to end this post before I get caught and get yelled at. Later peoples, maybe I'll post again some other time.

Hate Hate Hate... Blarg!
03.07.04 (5:59 pm)   [edit]
Oh man, it's been a long weekend. Too bad it was really only a regular length weekend or else it might have been a bit more enjoyable. Whatever. I hate working full time, I hate going to school every single day, and I hate having a boyfriend who sometimes makes me cry.

I hate having to do homework. I hate that my binder is not neat like it was at the beginning of the year. I hate that I've not been keeping it neat. I hate how my room is a mess right now, I hate how Friday afternoon's aren't optional. I really don't understand why there's always school on Friday afternoons. I'm lobbying to cancel that.

I hate how I don't have time to watch funny cartoons and sitcoms anymore to make my day a little bit better. I hate how in order to take a shower I have to sacrifice my sleeping time. I hate how my boss is so uncooperative. I hate how my boss won't let me cut back on my hours even though I'm the only person there working full time. I hate how he won't hire another person. I hate how people get on my case about stupid things.

I hate how teachers all assign tests and projects for the same week. I hate how my teachers assign projects that require me to use the internet when I don't have time during the week to use the internet. I hate how my boss won't get the internet at work so that if I do have a paper or project to do that requires the internet that I can't do it at work instead of just not doing it. I hate having to read a book in a certian ammount of time and then having to tear it apart to the smallest detail analyzinging it. It takes all the fun and enjoyment out of reading.

I hate how I get hungry at 4am and want something that I don't have access to at that moment. I hate how I eat nothing but junkfood lately and that because of that I'm only going to get fat. I hate thinking about how I'm going to get fat. Or how I'm getting old. I'm getting so old. Only 5 months left of being a teenager and then I'll be in my 20's. That's so old. When I was 5, 14 year olds were old to me. Now 14 seems so young and naive.

I hate how my computer is being slow and I have to wait for it to catch up with my mad typing skillz.

Augh... I hate how I'm going on about all the things I hate.

I only love a few things right now. My new hair because I got my hair done on Friday and it looks super uber awesome, and the fact that I know I'm loved. I love that. Yes I do! *smile*

Hung out with Ashley G. and Ashley G. today, was fun. Want to do it again next weekend. It's almost 10pm, have to work in 30 minutes, need to eat. Try to write more later this week.

Don't hate me for whatever...

Uber Snow
02.20.04 (2:07 pm)   [edit]
Alright, so we just had the hugest snow storm of the century, over 97cm of snow in one day!! It's nuts outside... and I hate snow. Why you then ask, do I live in Canada? Well.... to tell you the truth, it's because I was born here. If I was born anywhere else, why then I would live there then now wouldn't I? Not that that means I can't move somewhere else, cause I can and want to, it's just that I don't plan on doing that until I finish school.

So yeah, school's going well, we had the last two days off because of the snow, and there wasn't any school scheduled for Monday anyways, so that's a 5 day vacation from school. I have to work tonight though, it's not so bad I figure, because it's still pretty bad out there and a lot of people are still trapped in their houses because the streets haven't been plowed yet. I don't know how I'm getting to work... but I'll figure that one out later.

So yeah, I uploaded a new picture, cause the other one was kinda old. The one on there now was taken today, so therefore, it's recent. And when I was looking at my profile, I noticed that SaintMase left a really cool comment about me. THANKS SAINTMASE!! You rock. And I don't know if you can see it in the thumbnail, but in the full size pic, you can see my cute nose ring, YAY. I love it, I'm gonna go get a spike for it soon I hope. If I can get out to the mall on Monday that'd be really cool. Just cause I don't have school that day, and it's hard to find time to go anywhere when I have to work, then go to school, then sleep so I can go back to work. There really isn't much time in between those things for me to go and buy a spike for my nose. I want more piercings, because while looking at that pic, my ear felt naked. I might get an industrial. Who knows. I like them, they look neat.

Alright, enough talk about piercings, because it's making me want some, and when I think about piercings, I think about tattoos, and I want more of those too, plus I have to get one of them recoloured... cause it looks so faded and it's practically brand new. But whatever. I think I'm gonna go watch a movie now, so laters everyone.

Peace,
-J.

P.S. And if I don't die in the snow between now and whenever, then I'll write more soon, otherwise... well... if I die, this is the last entry I'll ever make. Haha... what a positive thought.
 
Why are boys so bloody weird?
02.15.04 (2:45 pm)   [edit]
I cease to understand the male psyche. My boyfriend freaks out over his pool stick today during pool, is all possessive, even though I paid for him and his friend to play and also bought him a beer. I really don't understand him at all. Although I did kick both his and Jordan's ass, I was on a winning streak, I won 5 games in a row, but lost on the 6th, and then I let them play for a bit, and then I played them each again, but lost both times. Either way though, I won the most games out of the three of us, so I'm still the reighning champion!! (I think that's how you spell reighning.)

Yeah, and another reason why boys are messed up, is because mine didn't get me anything for Valentine's Day!! Like what a jerkhead. He later took a box of chocoloate that his mom gave him, that I watched her give him, and gave them to me. He made a card to put on it in pretty much right in front of me... so I wouldn't really call that prepared. Although later he did say he was sorry and that I was right that he should have had something prepared for me before hand. So he's slowly but surely realizing that most of the time I'm right.

Anyways, I'm kinda hungry and I'm gonna go see what Aiden has to eat, plus I hate his keyboard, it makes me feel like I don't know how to type or something, it's pathetic. He's keys are all sticky and stuff, but at other times are uber sensitive. It's odd. Oh well whatever.

I'm out, peace,
-J.
 
Happy Birthday!!
02.07.04 (4:58 pm)   [edit]
Alright, so today is Aiden's 22nd birthday. I gave him his gift yesterday, well.. last night, but whatever. I bought him these cool cars that you put together and can customize and then you charge them up and they go really fast and stuff. They're Hotwheel's. I also bought him this really cool model kit, it's a '67 Plymouth GTX. Yeah, sweet car eh? He's been going on about it since he got it. So I guess I did really well for his gift then, so I'm happy. I also took him to see a movie today, we saw the Butterfly Effect. THAT was screwed up, but completely supports my "Everything happens for a reason," theory, so it all rocks and stuff. Was a very twisted movie, but really well-done. Ashton Kutcher was very impressive in a serious role. Not like uber impressive, but good for the work that we've come to expect of him, he needs a little fine-tuning in the serious-acting department, but it didn't take away from the movie or anything, so all's good.

But yeah, so I think we're gonna go play some pool in a bit too. Aiden's in the shower, so I'm just waiting for him to get ready. I wanna have sex, but there have been people at his house since I got here yesterday. There's always someone home and awake and stuff. We probably could have gotten away with it last night after everyone was in bed, but I fell asleep at like 11:30, and he didn't bother to wake me up, stupid jerk. He's gonna contribute to fucking up my schedule. My body gets used to sleeping and being awake at certian times for a week, and I spend one night with Aiden and it gets fucked up. Oh well, looks like I'll just have to correct that again this week. Sunday night at work I'll be tired and I'm sure I'll be tired all day at school too. Oh well. Speaking of school, I have homework to do this weekend, I completely forgot about that. Eh, I'll do it tomorrow night at work.

But yeah, aside from all that stuff, work is good, school is good, and my parents told me yesterday that they were proud of me, and Treena aparantly has been shouting it from the rooftops. She's been bragging to everyone that I'm working full-time and going back to school. Hah, and my mom found out yesterday too and she told me that she'd have to tell everyone I went back to school too. Parents are really weird sometimes.

Augh, he just turned on the shower now... what the hell was he doing in the bathroom for so long before turning the shower on? He's screwed up. I wanna go play some pool, I'm gonna kick his ass cause I haven't played in a while and I really want to. I've been thinking about it for a while now. So it'll be fun.

Anyways, I'm gonna go check my email and stuff, so maybe I'll write back in here tomorrow or something. We'll see. Oh, and Survivor: All Stars is great... except for the fact that they voted Rudy off... how horrid! He was such a nice old man, and he never complained about anything ever. Such mean people on that game. I thought Rupert was gonna cry. But right, said I was leaving. So chow!

Peace,
-J

P.S. Check out LiquidGeneration.com it's a sweet site. I remember coming across it forever ago, like a few years back, but Aiden started telling me about it today, and it's got some really funny clips on it, like satirical stuff. Watch Hey Allah! and the one for the SuperBowl. LOL :lol:
 
Super-Lemons
02.05.04 (12:19 pm)   [edit]
Oh yeah, and on the announcements at school, they do a quote of the day thing, and usually they're all very insightful and make you think a lot, today's just made me laugh.

"When life hands you lemons, you clone those lemons and make super-lemons!" -Principal Skudworth.

They didn't say his name, but I knew who it was immediately. So I laughed really hard and everyone in the classroom looked at me funny... am I really the only one in my school who's ever seen Clone High?? No one I asked knew where it was from... sad and pathetic.

Just plain sad and pathetic...

Spontaneous Musicals
02.05.04 (11:55 am)   [edit]
In my search for the origins of cartoons, I came across a website that someone owned, posting their opinion on different things. Such as the Janet-Justin-Boob thing from the Superbowl, and groundhog day and etc. He made this comment, and it's so well said, that I can't believe I had never thought of this before either. Instead of me re-telling what he said, I will copy/paste.

"i think everyone ought to know how to rhyme quickly and semi-dance. there are so many famous musicals out there, and everytime you watch one, you get that feeling inside that makes you want to get up and dance or sing, but you stop yourself because in most cases, dancing and singing is not something you can do. but eventually, that suppressed yearning for a real-life musical number is going to grow so strongly inside everyone that it will no longer be able to stay hidden. and the world will break into a random musical. and when that happens, you're going to need to know how to rhyme fast and at least skip to a beat. it seems frivolous to work on rhyme and step skills now, but the day the world breaks into spontaneous musical, it's really going to suck being the only one who can't join in. and since the world has never actually broken into song and dance, you can expect that it will happen very soon. random musicals work a lot like earthquakes, in that sense. and because the music numbers are completely random, you must be prepared for one at all times. you could be buying zig-zags at a 7-eleven, when the store clerk gets a boost of energy and decides to sing and dance on his little cashier table. what are you going to do? walk out and pretend you didn't notice? you could, but it won't be long before a parade of singing followers appear somewhere else, and then what? you can't avoid the random musical forever. and if you do, you'll be known world-wide as that guy who didn't join in the spontaneous musical. people will see you at supermarkets and point. your friends will probably stop hanging out with you, too. the mayor of your town might even make you wear some kind of dunce cap or badge that reminds everyone you were the one who didn't join in the world-sized random musical. and you know, they'd probably sing songs about you too."

I love it. It's sooooo amusing. Cause really, after I watch a movie or a musical that has a lot of dancing or singing, it makes me want to dance and sing. Most often I do anyways, I don't care who's looking. But the part about buying zig-zags in a 7-eleven, haha, what if I were the clerk? Maybe I should break out into random song and dance later tonight while I'm at work, just to see what the customer would do. I doubt that I actually will... but whatever.

It's odd that I've actually found time through the week to post in here. I've been SO busy. What with working backshift, going straight to school pretty much, then coming home and sleeping only to get up 6-7 hours later to go back to work. People think I'm nuts, but I seem to be handling it extraordinarily well. So it's all good. I figure I'll keep going until I feel like I'm going to burn out. Then I'll cut back on work a bit. But until then, I'll work as much as I can and focus on school and stuff. That's what's cool about working backshift, is that I can do my school work at my work work. And get paid while I do it. Cause it gets really slow for a couple hours at night, and I can pretty much do whatever I want. As long as I get the store cleaned and stocked up aswell. So my report so far is that everything seems to be working out well.

The reason I'm looking for the origins of cartoons is because we're starting a project in Global Geography tomorrow, and I wanted to do mine on cartoons, and I figured if I started looking for information now, then it would save me time. Because as you can probably guess, I don't get much computer time between sleeping, school and work. So searching on the internet isn't so handy to me. And go figure, I'm writing in my blog right now when I should probably be searching harder for this stuff. It's not coming up by the way, I'm getting all sorts of links for things that don't refer to the actual origin of cartoons themselves. Just particular strips or toons themselves. Eh, the teacher said she knew something that would help me with it. She just mentioned it briefly the other day, so hopefully tomorrow I can ask her. Or maybe, since I've seen a million links to books about this stuff on the internet that you can buy, maybe I can find it at the library, which would be helpful, then I won't need the internet to do my research. That'd be good.

Anyways, I'm getting tired, it's almost 4pm, I should be asleep, I have to work tonight and I don't know if I want to get up and hour earlier to see if I can watch Survivor or not. Might just get my parents to tape it and I'll watch it another time. Maybe in the morning before I have to go to school, or tomorrow afternoon or something. We'll see.

But yeah, leaving now. *breaks out into a spontaneous musical song and dance.*

Batman is a big fat faker!!
01.31.04 (7:43 am)   [edit]
That's right, I said it! He's a faker, he has no super powers. Only a really expensive utility belt, and a high-preformance sports car. Aren't those things just symptoms of a male going through a middle-age crisis? He's trying to recapture his youth, which is valiant of him, but trying to make the world believe he has superpowers?? He succeeded with a majority of the world, but there are a select few, like me, who see through the facade. It's all just his pretty illusion to make him feel superior and that he hasn't lost any of his masculinity. I am truely sorry if I am offending any of you, or making you upset, or shattering all your hopes and dreams, but these are the cold, hard facts, and you just have to face them. Life is unfair, and will throw things at you when you least expect them.

I know my sister will hate this, because she loves Batman more than anyone else I know, but really, if you think long and hard about it, he's no more of a superhero than my next-door neighbour. I mean, at least Spiderman had his spider-sense, Batman needs a huge yellow light with a bat insignia in the middle of it blairing back and forth across the sky to know that there is danger afoot. Superman could hear voices in his head of people calling out for help, you can't say the same for Batman. What sort of powers does he have for sensing danger in Gotham City? He can't tell if someone's been kidnapped or if a bank is being robbed until he's notified or called upon. He's no better than you're local crime-fighting police officers.

Well... now that I've got that out to the world at large I feel much better. I have been discussing this topic with Aiden for sometime and he sticks firmly to the fact that Batman is a superhero based on the fact that he has his own comic book and that he's a member of the Justice League, but that means nothing, if someone felt so inclined, they could make a comic book about me, give me a cool selection of gadgets and tell me where to go and what to do if there is crime that needs to be stopped. And the fact that it's called the Justice League, and not something else that implies that all of the members have special powers just proves that even a regular police officer could get into the Justice League, they fight crime for the face of Justice, so why not let them in the League too?

It all makes perfect sense to me... Down with the false portrayal of Batman, Robin does just as much work as he does, everyone knows he has no powers, but yet Robin gets no recognition. And why is that? I'll tell you why, it's because he was younger, and in his prime, Batman hated that because he was having an old-age crisis. He blotted him out and made himself look better in the mean-time.

Curse you Batman and all your trick-foolery!

What to do?
01.26.04 (5:07 am)   [edit]
Alright, so I'm so extremely bored. I'm still awake... what is this crap? I've been online for half an hour now, and no one is talking to me. So very bored! I miss my website... I can't play with this thing as much as I could with my site. I may be forced to go with something ad-supported... gah, ads, the horrid devil spawn of the internet. Why must life be bombarded with ads? You can't escape them. You see them on the highway, tv, radio, internet, t-shirts, hell, I bet even my little brother is an ad or something. They'd do that just to piss me off. Cause I hate ads to no end, and the ad companies probably stole one or all of my brothers and made them into walking ads, just to annoy me.

Although when you think about it, kids really are just walking ads, all they want is the new toy they saw on tv this morning during whatever stupid new show they're watching. And so they're going to whine and beg until they get whatever that thing is, what better than manipulating impressionable minds to do your campaigning for you? They'll tell their friends, and then all the kids in their class will want one, and their parents will have to get it for them. Because kids are spoiled and greedy and don't understand the value of earning something, they only understand that if they throw a temper-tantrum, they get what the want. Not too difficult.

Whatever, I've become more cynical than I'd rather before 9am. I'm so starving. There's nothing to eat in my house though. Which is not so surprising I suppose. My parents hate that I'm a vegitarian, which I don't get. Oh well. I've ceased trying to understand Treena. And since she hates my being vegitarian, so does my dad. Although my dad doesn't really say much about it. Mostly Treena does, which is annoying. Who cares though?

Haha, want to know something funny? I don't think I've mentioned this yet, but I will again if I already have. So I finally got that envelope in the mail from Peta with my vegitarian starter kit magazine in it. It took hella longer to get here than expected, but when it did actually get here, the envelope was empty!! What the hell? You would think that a large corporation such as Peta, who are trying to promote such things as vegitarianism, would actually put the magazine into the envelope before sealing it. How does that happen anyways? How does someone mail off an empty envelope? You must know that there's nothing in it!!! That's just rediculous.

Anyways, so I guess I should probably mention that not the weekend that just went past, but the one before, Aiden and I had our 6 month. And the weekend just past, we went to a hotel to celebrate. He got a room at the Casino hotel, and a king size bed and everything. I have never in my life seen a king size bed before then. They're gigantic! I could lay down sizeways on the bed, and still not hang off on either end, which is amazing!! THat night we went to a place called The Planet, and The Mellowtones were playing. They are such an awesome band. They're an 8 piece band, they had 2 guitarists, 1 drummer, 1 bassist, 1 guy playing the sax, one on the trumpet, a keyboarder and a singer. It was really cool. They only play cover songs, and they make them sound all funky and stuff. Aiden's heard them before, but I never had until this weekend. They were SO cool. I want to go see them again if I can. Haha, I haven't told Aiden that, cause I know he'll leap for joy if I do tell him, and he'll all be like, "I told ya they were awesome didn't I?" And I'll have to give in and say yes. LOL. Not that I won't tell him or anything, and not that I didn't tell him that night that I really enjoyed them. So not like it matters now that I think about it.

Hmm... guess what, later today, Ashley and I are gonna go up to the high school and see about enrolling for the new semester. Which is like next week apparantly, but whatever, lol.

Anyways, I'm gonna go raid my kitchen and see if I can find anything edible, maybe I'll find some alphagetties! Mmmm.

Laters, peace.

Modification
01.22.04 (4:27 am)   [edit]
Alright, so now that I've made my blog read-able. I have no idea how that happened... or for how long it's been that way. It's been a while since I've posted, I've been working almost everyday, so night-time is out of the question, early morning after I get home is the only time I ever really use the computer now, after that I sleep. Wake up, get showered, eat, maybe do some laundry or something, then go to work. It's productive I know.

Anyways, so aside from the fact that my title not only means that I fixed my blog, but that I modified my body as well. Got my nose pierced, like you suggested Mel, and a tattoo. I'll try to get photos of it as soon as I can!! Ashley came with me, this was yesterday by the way, and the tattoo part hurt a lot at first, but after a while I got used to it. It still kinda hurts, but eh, not nearly as much as it did when she was doing it. Oh yeah, Rosanna did my tattoo, she was this really cool girl that went to SHS with us, but she was a year older, and she always had really awesome artwork. She's so fun! But yeah, when I get more tattoos, because I'm almost positive I will, because I've already started thinking about what I might get next, I'll definately go back and get her to do them.

The piercing felt SO weird, cause he stuck the clamp up my nose... lol. And the needle hurt like a bitch going through, but he said that I took it better than anyone, because he said that a lot of people scream and freak out, or start cursing at him. LOL, I just find that funny, why would you scream and curse at the piercer? You're the one who wanted it done!! Dumbasses. Oh well, but it looks neat, as soon as I can change it, I'm gonna, just cause by then I'll want a new thing sticking out of my nose!! Haha. But yeah, the actual nose-ring is really odd, it doesn't have a back, but it's twisted funny, so it's not going to come out or anything, and I can feel it on the inside of my nose, LOL, that feels even more weird than the clamp going up my nose. Although when he first put the nose-ring in, that was super weird. I'm getting used to it though, sometimes I forget it's there all-together, and I'm like.... "Did it fall out or something?" then I cross my eyes to look down my nose, and there it is! Haha, I'm a dork.

HAHA! When Ashley was getting her orbital, she freaked out SO bad. She was squeezing my hand and gritting her teeth, and she rose like a foot off her seat and the guy was like.... "Stop moving!" Haha, I made fun of her, cause the whole time I got my tattoo, I didn't freak out as much as she did, and when I got my nose done I didn't freak out either, and she gets her piercing and looks like she's going to scream. Haha, Ashley's a wimp!

But right, I haven't slept much over the last few days, so I'm gonna go crash. Cause who knows if Ashley's gonna call me later this afternoon or not. We're planning on going up to SHS later, either today, or tomorrow. She has to upgrade some of her credits in order to get into university, and I have to graduate still, and I told her that if she goes back to SHS, then I'll go, but that's the ONLY way I'll go. I didn't want to be back there by myself, cause I'm now two years older than the grade 12's, so forget going by myself. And Ashley and I are gonna try to take pretty much all the same courses, and get in the same classes. If we do get registered for second semester, then we have a bet going, that whoever has the least ammount of skips at the end, wins $50. So that means no skipping!!!

Alright, well... sleepie time now, gotta go crash and dream of interestingly odd things. My dreams have been really weird lately, could have something to do with the book I'm reading though too. I'm reading the Chronicles of Narnia, and I LOVE it!! Everyone should read them if they haven't, and if they have, read them again!

Ok, but like I've said twice now, I have to sleep... laters everyone.

Peace,
-J.
 
Boys Suck
01.10.04 (3:28 pm)   [edit]
Alright, so I think that boys should be more intuitive and sensitive. That would make everything so much better. Because then they wouldn't do things that piss you off or get you upset or anything. Blah!

Anyways, tonight is going to be my first backshift, also, my first shift completely by myself. Rah, scary! I have to call Jerry as soon as I get there though, because I need to know exactly what needs to be done on the backshift, all I know of is to sweep and mop the store. But I know there are other things. So we'll see. And Jerry has to work the shift after mine, so when he comes in he said he'd show me how to do up all the paperwork. Which is good, because I have no idea how to do that sort of stuff.

Alright, well... I'm bored. I wanna find something to do. I don't have to be at work for another 3 hours, but I'm bored. I wouldn't mind watching a movie, but eh, I might watch one later tonight if I have nothing to do. I bought a book today though. I bought A Walk To Remember, even though I have seen the movie a million times and can probably quote it almost word for word, Tricia, Aiden's sister, told me that it was a must read, even if you have seen the movie. She said the book is much more different. So I bought it today. I might read that later tonight too. Don't know, I'm going to come prepared with my book and some music. Alright, well I'm off to find something to do. Laters.

Peace,
-J.
 
Work, Work, Work
01.08.04 (1:02 pm)   [edit]
Alright, so my first day of work wasn't too bad. I had to stand most of the day because Jerry kept taking the chair, but oh well. Everything was kind of confusing, but easy at the same time. If that makes sense. Just that there was so many new things I had to learn at once. I'm sure I'll get the hang of it tomorrow. I have the cash figured out pretty much, and the lotto machine, and the video rental computer is simple as all hell. It's just the lottery stuff messes me up some, and items that don't scan properly and such. Which is kind of annoying. Also, trying to understand cigarettes. Wholy crap, there are so many different brands, but then there are like 30 different options for each particular brand, it's confusing. And when people come in to deliver stuff... gah. And the numbers at the end of the shift, I have no idea where half of them come from. I'm sure I'll better learn those things tomorrow and by then I'll be all set.

But Jerry is awesome, he's fun to talk to. He's pretty laid back and everything, pretty much because you have to be. He said Thursdays and Fridays aren't very busy during the day at all. I don't want to know how busy the night shift will be. Probably dead as all hell. That leaves me with muchos free time. Looks to me like I'll be bringing in my sketchbook and some music, and I'll be watching some movies and etc. Jerry said I could bring in my laptop... if only I had one to bring in. LOL. Cause then I'd be chattin up a storm on MSN or ICQ while I'm working. Haha, that'd be productive. Although I have the phone and everything, so it's not too bad.

Anyways, I'm hungry, so I'm off to find some food.

Peace,
-J.
 
Got Employeed?
01.07.04 (11:12 am)   [edit]
Alright, so I got the job at Needs, yay for Jenn. Now I have a job! Which means now I can make money. He said that he'll eventually be putting me on backshift, but he's going to train me during the day. I have two shifts, tomorrow and Friday, 9-5. So that's cool. I have to remember to bring in my SIN. If I can find it that is! LOL. I'll search for it once I get home. Aiden's getting ready for work right now, so I'm occupying his computer. LOL. But yeah, working at Needs will be fun. And where I'll eventually be working backshift, I'll be able to do whatever I want during the night when no one's there. The girl I was talking to this morning said that when she works backshift, and it's dead for a few hours she just watches movies or reads, or cleans or whatever. Jerry said that at most there's only 2 hours of cleaning to do at night, which includes mopping and filling the coolers I think and the coffee machines and etc. But that's nothing, I did hella more work than that at BK on a close, and we didn't have all sorts of free time to do it in either. So this will be SO easy. I'm excited.

Anyways, I'm bored of typing, I think when I get home I'll start working on my webcomic. I have to think of an interesting plot line for them. It's time to send Petra and David out on adventures. Alright, well I'm out.

Peace,
-J.
 
Yet Another Interview
01.06.04 (7:35 pm)   [edit]
Alright, so earlier today, on my way down Sackville Drive to meet up with Aiden, I decided to stop into the Needs and get some chocolate milk. And just so has it, Jerry, the owner, is working. He seems to think that my walking into the store at that moment is some sort of coincidence, at least that was the look he had on his face. Anyways, so I dart for my chocolate milk, bring it up to the counter, he says, "So I'm about to do some hiring, would you like to come in for an interview?" Of course I would, so that's what I say. Then I asked him when, he suggests tomorrow, I ask what time, and guess what he says... 6:30AM!!! Like how early is that?? It's 11:30pm now, which means my interview is in 6 hours!! I have enough time to get about 5 hours sleep if I'm lucky. Because I have to leave here by 6 to make sure I get there on time. I think I timed it today to see how long it would take me to get there, and the last time I checked my clock, it said 10 after, but I know I didn't leave right away, and when I checked my clock when I got there, it said 38 after. So almost 30 minutes. I want to be at least 5 minutes early, and I don't know how long it was before I actually left my house this afternoon. It'd be great if I had a drive up, but that won't happen. And Dad's out of town, so it's not like I could ask him to make sure I'm up. Normally, I would worry just slightly if I had to wake up for 7 or 8 or something, but I have to get up at 5ish, to make sure I have time to get something to eat and get ready and stuff. And I don't even know what I'm going to wear... gah. I'll figure that out before I go to bed. Which is exactly what I'm going to do now. So I can get as many of those 5 hours as I can.

Peace, hope this interview shows more promise than the last.

Feels Like Home - Chantal Kreviazuk

[u][b]Feels Like Home - Chantal Kreviazuk[/b][/u]

Something in your eyes
Makes me want to lose myself
Makes me want to lose myself in your arms
There's something in your voice
Makes my heart beat fast
Hope this feeling lasts the rest of my life

If you knew how lonely my life has been
And how long I've been so alone
If you knew how I wanted someone to come along
And change my life the way you've done

Chorus:
Feels like home to me
Feels like home to me
Feels like I'm all the way back where I come from
Feels like home to me
Feels like home to me
Feels like I'm all the way back where I belong

A window breaks down a long dark street
And a siren wails in the night
But I'm alright 'cause I have you here with me
And I can almost see through the dark there is light

If you knew how much this moment means to me
And how long I've waited for your touch
If you knew how happy you are making me
I've never thought that I'd love anyone so much

Chorus

Feels like I'm all the way back where I belong
 
No Idea
01.06.04 (10:21 am)   [edit]
Alright, so I have absolutely NO IDEA how my interview went. I got there and had to fill out a questionaire, then he asked me MORE questions, there was a spelling test, a reading test and a typing test. He also tested me on how to copy/cut/paste, minimize and maximize a window, open the internet, find a webpage and close windows. That was stupid I'll admit, because clearly I applied through email, can you not understand that I obviously understand how to copy/paste? Or how to close a browser window for that matter? Geez.

I'm not worried about those things, it's the questions he asked me. They were hard. He told me that I would know either later this week, or early next week if I've got the job or not. So we'll see. But I'm not waiting around for them to call, I'm still applying to places. I've applied to 4 other places today. So my resume is out there. I'm just waiting on call-backs.

Alright, well I have to jump in the shower then head off to Aiden's place. Laters.

Peace,
-J.
 
Getting Ready
01.06.04 (6:41 am)   [edit]
Alright, so my interview is in an hour, I'm having breakfast. Sandwiches to be exact. I was going to have some Captian Crunch, I was all excited about it to. But guess what? Whoever was responsible for taking the last of the milk didn't want me to have any Captian Crunch. I swear to god, no word of a lie, there was a tiny bit of milk left in the fridge, but it wasn't even enough for a mouthful. Who plays these sorts of cruel jokes?? It's not nice. So now I suffer having to eat non-breakfast things for breakfast. Bah!

OH well, I won't let it get me down, I can't let it because I have to start really impressing people in an hour. I really want this job, I want to be able to run down the street to BK afterwards and scream to Aiden that I got the job. He had to do truck today, so he's been there since 6am. He's off at 2 though, so I get to spend the rest of the day with him. Yay!

Saw Peter Pan last night, the new version. It was SOOOO cute. There was more love between Peter and Wendy, and their characters had more depth.

Anyways, I have to stop blogging, have to finish my sandwiches and brush my teeth and stuff and get going. I want to give myself lots of time to find the right entrance. Because it's in behind a building. And I've never been to the back of that building before. Hopefully there's not like 30 different entrances, if there is, I'm going to cry.

I hope in my next entry I'll be telling you all about my new job...

Peace,
-J.
 
The Characters.
01.05.04 (4:41 pm)   [edit]
Alright, so my characters are named Petra and David. There will probably be a few minor characters as well, but those are the main two. For now I will only have strips with them in it. I don't care if Aiden wants to name the guy something weird like Mr. Joe Cool or something insanely worse, his name is David. I have them drawn out, so I know what they look like, they're cool.

Anyways, Aiden is being a bum, we're discussing movie options. Which is ALWAYS a fun conversation.

Laters,
-J.
 
Bored, Oh SO Bored.
01.05.04 (12:32 pm)   [edit]
What ever shall I do? So very bored. Aiden is making his bed. I think I'm going to start my own webcomic, because then I can control the characters. I may start off only doing them when I can, but eventually maybe they will come on a regular basis. I'm going to try starting the first one today. But I have to come up with a good idea for how the characters will act, and be like. They need to be more defined. So I'll let you all know if anything comes of that.

It also could be a very short phase that I'm going through. Also, I've been reading everywhere about all these different people coming up with lists of things they want to acomplish, it's been suggested to me as well many times, so I think I shall also come up with a list of things I'd like to do. Those are my two goals for today.

Alright, well I'm gonna go now. I have to pee and I want to get a head start on my webcomic. See you all later.

Oh, and before I go, guess what?! My blog has almost 1000 views!! Who the hell is actually reading this stupid thing?

peace,
-J.
 
Interview! Rah!
01.03.04 (12:38 pm)   [edit]
So I got a call yesterday at about 5:10, it was from the call center that I applied to via email. They asked me if I wanted to come in for an interview on Tuesday. So of course I do. Haha, my interview is at like 11:30am. So it's not too early or anything. Which is good.

Also, if I get the job, I'll be making at minimum, $9/hour. That friggin rocks. I hope I get it because if I don't then I'll have to continue applying to more places. And if no one calls me... then gah. Well, the call center called anyways. When I picked up the phone, the woman had this REALLY odd accent, like she was a telemarketer or something, haha, she probably is. Anyways, she called me and told me that they recieved my resume, and ask if I would like to come in for an interview. RAH! I'm excited. I can't wait.

Although if I do get this job, there's no way I'll ever want to leave for a lower paying one. If you get used to making a certian ammount of money then you don't want to have to change that. I don't think I could ever work for less than I already was. Even if I hated my job, I would never leave it for less pay. Speaking of pay, I got my final paycheck from BK, and it's a HUGE one, which is good, considering it's my last. LOL. It gives me some money to pay my bills and possibly get a tattoo and a piercing and my nails done. LOL. Yeah, like those are priorities. AHAHAHA. I really wanna get my nails done though, just because now that I don't work at BK, I can have nice nails. That's what sucked about that place. You couldn't have visible tattoos or piercings, and you couldn't wear nail polish or anything. Stupid heads. Also, we had to have natural hair colours. I can kind of understand the nail polish thing, because it can chip and stuff like that and possibly fall into the food, but hair colours? If a hair is going to fall off your head, it doesn't matter what colour it is, it's going to fall off. If it lands in someone's food, they don't care if it was blonde, or black, it's in their food, they don't want it there, so what's the difference if it were blue instead of blonde? I don't think there's too much difference. Not that I want blue hair, I mean, I did at one point in time, but obviously not anymore. Oh well.

Maybe I'll go get my nails done later, we'll see. Or maybe I'll wait until they're all the same length and paint them myself. HAHA. That's so much work though.

Whatever. I'm so bored. I just got home not too long ago. There's nothing to do at my house. I'm too bored to even write in here anymore, time to find something to do.

Laters,
-J.
 
Apply, Apply, Apply!
01.02.04 (6:22 am)   [edit]
Alright, so I applied to three jobs via the internet/email last night. And three others this morning. One looks hopeful though. The Needs convienence store, I was talking to the manager, Jerry, and he said that he wasn't sure when he'd be doing any hiring, it could be soon, but that he'd definately call me when he's going to. Which is awesome. Hopefully he'll be hiring soon because I need a job now, not later.

So that's 6 jobs so far. And I'm probably going to go out again later today and apply to more. I just don't feel like walking everywhere, that's going to suck.

I hope someone calls me back, cause THAT would suck. Then I'd be job-less, and consequently, money-less. Speaking of money, I need to pay my cell phone bill and cash my last paycheck from BK.

And who the hell is actually reading my journal? I have almost 300 views now. I don't think I've ever seen so many hits in such short a period of time. Am I really that interesting? HAha... it's doubtful. I feel rather boring if you'll ask me.

Mmm... running on 3.5 hours sleep is fun! But I suppose that's what I get for going to bed at nearly 4am and getting up at 7:30. But I've been to Burnside, had a very brisk walk down the side of the highway to McDonald's to wait for my dad to return, and then back into Sacktown to continue applying to more places.

I'm gonna go play a game for now. I feel like I did enough work considering it's not even 11am yet, normally I'm not even up yet. LOL.

Laters,
-J.
 
New Year's Eve... what's up?
12.31.03 (12:58 pm)   [edit]
I have no idea what I'm doing tonight... gah, and I can't get a hold of Ashley, she sucks. Pfft. Not really, but gah, answer your damn phone!!

It's nearly 5pm and I am not drunk yet! Ahaha, I sound like an alcoholic or something. LOL. I wanted some Bailey's for tonight, but I'm too lazy to walk down to the Liquor Store. I have a pint of Vodka still... but I dunno if I want that tonight. Hah, maybe I'll just drink whatever Aiden's drinking. We'll see. There's no way he's going to let me not drink, I know him too well, he wants me to be drinking whenever he is. Even if it means offering me a beer every 5 minutes. But he knows the answer, it's "no thanks" everytime, because I hate beer. I don't like the taste, and it makes me sick to my stomach. So I just don't bother with it. Something in it makes me feel queazy, so I stay away. Eh, oh well. I prefer hard liquor anyways. I'm not a little bitch drinker.

I am so extremely bored. And this is like my third entry in less than 24 hours. That's kind of pathetic. Oh well...

Maybe I'll redesign my blog page. Sounds like something to keep me busy for 5-10 minutes. By then it'll be 5pm and Aiden will be getting off of work soon, saying that they do close at 5 today. They may not close until 6. I dunno. Who cares. I just want everyone to hurry up so I can get smashed.

Laters,
-Jenn, BE SAFE!!! Don't be stupid.
 
I miss everything...
12.30.03 (11:04 pm)   [edit]
Alright, so it feels like it's been forever since the site went down, and I wanna play with it. I want to add so much stuff.

It's been like a week since I've seen my boyfriend, I miss him sooooo much. I just want to hug him and stuff. I want to be able to breathe in his presence. That's how much I miss him.

My mom gave me a love letter kit, maybe I'll write him a love letter before I go to bed tonight and give it to him for New Year's and it'll say something inspiring and sentimental. Only because that's how I am. Sentimental, I hope I'm inspiring, to at least one person in this world because then I'll know I will have made an impact, even if it is just to one person. That's all that really matters right? That you left a positive impression with just one person and helped change their life for the better even if you weren't aware of it?

Now I'm rambling like the sappy little pathetic sentimentalist I am. It's nearly 3am, I should be sleeping because I have a million things to do tomorrow, like call Ashley, pick up my paycheck, go to the liquor store and all that crap. So I'm gonna go play with that kit and then go to bed... probably in 3 hours, lol. I feel like writing, maybe I'll get inspired and write a poem, who knows. I don't, I never know when those things will come along. Alright, well.... laters.

Peace,
-J.
 
Christmas is over... now what?
12.30.03 (6:56 pm)   [edit]
I'll tell you what, New Year's Eve, that's what!! Although Tina still hasn't gotten crickey.org back online yet, and I also can't put my site back online, things are still great. My profile in this thing just told me my blog has been viewed 214 times!! Isn't that insane. I only have like... 4 entries or something like that. Oh well. People love me for some unknown reason.

In any case, I still have no plans for tomorrow night, I think what will happen is a bunch of us will just end up at Aiden's and drink our asses off. Sounds like fun though.

Incase you hadn't picked up on this little note, I'm home again, spent nearly a week at my mom's and it was super fun. Oooo, I should tell you all what I got for Christmas. From my parents who told me I ruined Christmas and all that crap, all I got was the two stuffed toys that talk from Blockbuster, you know, Ray and Carl from the commercials. I got a bunch of different scented hand-lotions from Trish, nothing from my brothers. I think I already mentioned everything that my friends gave me in my last entry. My grandmother gave me a shirt that's... erm, not exactly my type, but I'll at least let her see me in it so I don't hurt her feelings. Then maybe I'll do something with it and turn it into a better shirt or something. Who knows. My mom bought me all sorts of neat stuff though, she got me a love letter making thing with the wax and the stamp and stuff. Also a really soft blanket with Mickey Mouse on it, and some Bertie Botts Every Flavor Beans from Harry Potter. Some of them are SOOOO gross. Haha. AHHH, and she bought me a HOUSE HIPPO TOO! I looooooooooove it! It's the neatest looking thing ever! She gave me $100 in gift certificates to the mall, but the bestest thing she gave me was my puzzle. It's the most insane puzzle ever! It's of Tigger, but if you've ever seen those posters or ads where it's a larger picture made up of lots of tiny photos. Anyways, that's how my puzzle is, it's going to take us months to finish.

Hmm... I think that's everything. Although I can't remember if I mentioned what Aiden bought me. I'll tell you again if I did, he got me a teddy bear who is SO soft, three belly-button rings, a gift certificate to La Senza, which is friggin awesome. A keychain, and a poster of Homer Simpson made like my puzzle is too, with the tiny little photos. So I had a good Christmas, just... the days leading up to the 25th are usually rather depressing. Also, I did survive all the carnage that Christmas brings, and I've been trying to get out to a book store to buy that Vegan cookbook. I want to find a really good recipe for samosas. I love those things.

Anyways, I'm kinda hungry, I'm gonna go see if we have anything to munch on, sorry for taking so long to post another entry, but I was visiting my mom, and she's more important. Tomorrow will be the great drinking-fest of 2003, and as Aiden said, "Not to be confused with the great drinking-fest of 2004, which will be after midnight!" Everyone be careful tomorrow night and don't be stupid by drinking and driving, or letting your friends drive drunk, and that way, I'll be sure to see you all in the New Year.

Peace,
-Jenn

P.S. Oh, watched Pirates of the Carribean today, awesome movie!!
