i think i got a little too giddy at receiving it - and even more so when i was replying to it.
it pretty much just made up for every bad thing that's happened in the past while. it's strange what a little update on your life can do. it's funny how he messaged me right when i just found a nice niche in writing again; found an inspiration. hrm.
i don't ever want to work again. yet, in about 4 hours, i should be waking up to get to work yet again.
bah.
cheers.
"New York will still be there in the morning - come back to bed, my darling."
i really just needed something to help me pass the time as it did. i wish i didn't work today. everyday that i have to work, i wish i didn't have to. it looks like such an "let's go for an adventure" sort of day.
wow. it finished downloading. i am excited.
i dig it. i dig it, i dig it, i dig it. i think i will actually buy it - even though i've heard all of these songs before and have the live versions of them.
i just had a very in depth conversation with my cat about how he's ridiculous and how, at times, it can be unacceptable - but i still find it entertaining. i'm sure he understood everything that was said since he's now chewing on a door stop.
i'm groggy. there is absolutely no point to this update. at all. but i want ice cream.
also: you. yes, you. you're crazy. that's right. crazy. c-r-a-z-y. if something upset me about you, or if something i wrote was about you, i'd make it very obvious that it was. such as this, for instance. so stop being crazy. crazy.
yesterday, at work, this woman came in with her toddler. the toddler hit her head against the counter and, instead of following up with loud shrieks and cries, she started to growl and gurgle. kind of like satan. it was pretty intense.
cheers.
"Oh darling, you're charming - don't find this alarming."
as for you I should have let you have it, but leaving you hanging only makes your teeth decay more with your sore red sickness on your head and on your chin but i knew you weren't a perfect little miss feel feel feel dick dick dick dix not even i did that and lord knows i'm not going to fold like a lawn chair
but i guess he takes after his mother
can someone be my boyfriend?
we need mow-shee and five guys burgers and fries an ice cold tan and sex on the beach
Question: in fiction, when someone travels either back or forward in time, does the present time stop for that person or does time continue normally? If time does continue, then that person will have missed a chunk of present time. Unless they come back to present time, but right before they decided to disrupt the space-time continuum. I think that happened in Back to the Future. Or was it Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure? Oh, phooey.
I actually think about time travel a lot. I have no idea why. I also think about the galaxy and the solar system, and how we worry about mortgages and car payments, which seem completely useless when you think of the big picture. And then you think of all those "why" and "how" questions and you get depressed. Sometimes it gives me a headache thinking about those things.
ETA: Also, speaking of time travel, I would like to start reading comic books. Um, something other than Archies (I have full boxes of those).
The vlogbrothers, Hank and John Green, are very entertaining. However, it's a bit hard to get through all of their videos when they made one video per day through all of 2007. Eek. Nerd Fighters!
Tomorrow, I'm heading up to the chalet. First time in exactly one year. Eek.
P.S. Thank you to all of you who commented yesterday. It really made my day. ♥
yeah. didn't get to school this morning either. woke up and horrible things happened, so i stayed in bed and am now flushing absolutely everything out of my body. how exciting. i work today and i'm a little pissed. i somehow ended up closing five days in a row because i agreed to take someone's shift so they'd shut the hell up. now i'm kicking myself in the head for it.
i had this crazy whack dream that was pretty much like final fantasy VII. i would understand this a whole lot more if i was currently playing the game. but, seeing as i'm not, i just woke up wondering what the fuck that was all about.
i originally typed out aboot and actually giggled to myself a little.
i was right - it wasn't any good. i've been significantly different lately and it's showed. a good kind of different, mind you - as it's even been pointed out to me. this makes me giddy.
anners, i'll bring you dexter on monday. i promise.
cheers.
"Paint your face wild and stay for a while, right here."
i slept clean through my morning class. which is odd since i went to bed at around 9:30 last night. i remember telling my room mate to wake me up in an hour - then i remember her trying to and i called her stupid, rolled over and fell into a deeper sleep.
good job, me!
i got to school around 1 or so and was debating skipping class - but i went. it was fun. a bunch of friends from the other class came and talked up a storm with james and i. then we went to their class and wasted some time there. afterwards, i bused to the go station and got two free loaves of bread with leigh anna. there's a cob's bread store opening up in oakville and they were giving out free bread at the go station to draw people in. it worked for me. i like bread. and free things.
a chair yesterday and free bread today? someone must love me.
i went downtown and achieved absolutely nothing because i was late and everything was closed. but i bought candy. and incense. and had the WORST BURRITO IN THE WORLD. but then i watched a movie with ellen page and all was well - even though i was confused and not paying attention half the time. because SOMEONE was talking. sheesh.
now i'm home. not doing the homework i should be doing. i'll probably just do it on my lunch break tomorrow. i am thoroughly disappointed that there are no crumpets left - and rabba doesn't sell them, either.
I turn 21 today! Yes, I'm totally manipulating you by posting a cute baby picture. HA! I have become conniving in my old age.
Tomorrow, I will attempt to make baklavas from scratch. All my life, I've bought amazing ones from this tiny pastry store near my old school. I hear it's not that hard to make. I want to get back into the swing of things and bake a lot this summer.
Whether I bake or not, I hope I get some cake tomorrow... mmm, devil's food cake. Or even angel food cake. Mmm, cake. Or pie! Goshdarnit.
Juno = the new Garden State. y/n? Juno was a bit more well-known. Garden State just exploded on LiveJournal when it came out. I have to admit, I didn't really like the movie. I don't know why I didn't like it; it's right up my alley! Alas, I didn't. Litte Miss Sunshine could also be put into this category. This category being the indie-smartass-intelligent category? Nah, LMS didn't sound pretentious at all. It's one of my favourites. Oh, what am I talking about.
Lately, I've been stroking the hell out of that troll's hair. Whenever I'm online, watching videos or reading long articles, I need to keep my hands occupied. Twirling an elastic, a bracelet, a simple string... or playing with dolls. Oh, such an interesting topic.
I can't believe iharthdarth was in 2005. I'm not quite sure if that's very long ago, or not that long at all.
Being in possession with all of this free time, I should start playing World of Warcraft. y/n? (Sorry, I can't make polls!)
If you have the time, go check out notalwaysright.com where people post the most insane conversations they've had with stupid/ignorant/lost customers. It's really hilarious. Here's one of my favourites:
Me: “What can I get you?” Customer: “I want coffee, but I don’t want any caffeine in it.” Me: “So you want decaffeinated coffee?” Customer: “No, I want regular coffee. I also want you to take the caffeine out of it.” Me: “I’m sorry, ma’am, but you’ll have to buy decaf if you don’t want any caffeine.” Customer: “Just gimme that coffee, and make sure to take the caffeine out.” (She turns her back for a moment to rummage through her purse. I pour her a cup of decaf anyway.) Me: “Here you go, ma’am!” Customer: “Did you take the caffeine out?” Me: “Yep!”
ohio consists of stealing internet no phone animals trees rainy weather random sex lonely city feeling sick feeling sick feelingsick feeling sick i just wanna go home or go to the lake and lay in the sun until my skin turns the color of tomatoes i don't even wanna see any of you people i probably will never talk to you ever again.
a number of people told me i look good today. i found this very strange considering i feel like i'm in dire need of a haircut. hrm.
school was rad. sickly long, but very rad. i stole a stool for my art table. i literally walked it out of class, all the way to the go station, sat on it at red lights, took it on the train and walked it up the stairs to my apartment. i named it violetta, in honor of my grade 2 reading buddy.
i also got the journey to the west book set. what none of you know is how i am nerding out like mad about them - on the inside. for serious.
i spent the night at my sister's. one of her friends was there too, so it was pretty rad.
a lot happened. lots and lots, but i'm too tired to recap it all. we watched hard candy. i think i need to kidnap ellen page. like, now. i talked a lot to my sister's friend - her and i used to talk about everything, but then her and my sister had a falling out, so we didn't have much contact with each other for about a year. so we had a lot of catching up to do. she said something to me that, surprisingly, no one else has said before and it really hit me.
earlier in the day, i was fixated of thinking up ways to kill my room mate. but she came home and had this long, heart felt conversation with me and things are much better.
i said a lot of things that i've been meaning to say for a while now.
last night, they fired viki. i almost cried - it felt like she died.
i think bloc party is coming out with something new soon. this excites me. more than it should.
i missed my fairy tales class because i'm oh-so-clever and seem to have mastered the fine art of sleeping through my alarm. i feel like i need someone to hit me in order to wake me up for my crazy early morning classes - which is actually just the one class. lame.
i have to leave for work in fifty minutes. i am still sitting here in pjs, needing to shower and still want to eat breakfast. i will most likely be late.
While watching the $1,000,000 Price is Right today (I know, I know), I remembered one of the scary recurring dreams I had when I was younger. My grandmother used to watch the Price is Right every single day, so whenever I was at their house, I would watch it as well. Thus, my dream: I used to imagine spinning the showcase wheel and having my face scraped off because I was standing too close to it. The wheel would smash into my head while it was turning. UGHH! However, as it turns out, those spikes that make the wheel stop are only on the other side of it. It still freaks me out whenever I see it on TV. I just wanna scream: "Don't stand so close to the wheel!". *shudders*
Someone is selling a freaking catbus on craigslist. You know, like the one in My Neighbor Totoro? The movie in my icon? Yeah.
I can't log onto Gmail on Firefox because it tells me my cookies aren't enabled (that sounds dirty). GRAH! Yes, they are! I didn't change anything! *sobs* Now I'm forced to use IE. Thanks a lot.
It is May 7th. Or, 05/07. So... I got the brilliant idea of linking to songs that are exactly 5:07 in length. Yeah, very creative.
and only busy busy busy busy busy days ahead. but it's all rad, so no complaints.
didn't come home last night. don't even remember what happened in the day. other than the fact i went to school, i mean. or what happened in the night, quite honestly. ha. no surprise. the other day, when i was late for my first day of school, i arrived to class an hour and a half late. i tried to not interrupt anything, silently took my seat and started working on our in class assignments. no sooner do i have everything all set up that my teacher comes up behind me, starts whispering to me and, in turn, scares the life out of me that my stealthy entrance completely crashed to the ground. it was intense. he gave me a mini lecture about how lates and absents can no longer be tolerated this semester because, if you miss on day, it's the equivalent of missing two since they've condensed everything. though he told the whole class this speech earlier, it felt like he was waiting for that perfect sucker to walk in late to scold them about it. just my luck that i was that sucker.
i need to go to the textile district downtown next week. i have a lot of ideas in my head and i'm more than psyched to get them started. i love the textiles class. i'm thinking of possibly applying for it. but, only maybe.
yesterday was good. today was good. tomorrow will be better. as will everyday after that.
it's strange how drasticly things can change.
cheers.
"J'suis Simone, elle est bonne, et j'suis trop bonne pour toi."
A very eventful couple of days. So much so that I need to use bullet points to explain everything.
- I got introduced to a little TV show called Absolutely Fabulous, or Ab Fab, and it is perfect, and British, and hilarity. After watching this clip about 10 times, I still can't stop laughing.
- I have been to the movies three times in the span of five days. Very, very bad idea. I have also eaten out about 4 times. My bank account is bruised and battered. I need to treat it better.
- I have watched U2 3D (3.5/5), Iron Man (3.5/5), and Forgetting Sarah Marshall (2.5/5). You should know, I'm a very tough critic. Even if I'm giving those two a score of 3.5, I thoroughly enjoyed them! I just feel like a 4/5 would be a bit much. For instance, I loved Iron Man, but I don't think I'd buy the DVD.
- Wow. Suffragette City came up on the iTunes shuffle and I realized how long it had been since I listened to that song.
- In other news, I refuse to read the Twilight series and am going to do my absolute best not to watch the movie. For no particular reason.
- This weekend was packed with excitement. On Saturday, Alex got himself a shiny new desktop computer. The screen rotates! Yes, I'm very impressed. He also got a remote with it and can use the computer as a TV (yes, my first thought went to recording TV shows and sharing them as torrents; I'm lame).
- His big brother got a dog! We were in Future Shop when Alex got the call, and I started jumping around like Tigger. It's not even my dog! They named him Charlie. He's a mix between a husky and a rottweiler. I realized that the dog I get will need to be soft and furry. Pictures soon.
- I received a shiny pretty gift from Alex: a Creative Zen! I always get a feeling of elation whenever I hold a new gadget. I'm the kind of person who will read the instruction manual first. The longer the better! It just means there are more things to fiddle with. As opposed to the iPod, the Zen has a built-in FM radio and a microphone. I remember searching high and low for a CD player that also had FM radio. Sometimes you're just sick of your own music and you want to listen to the local classic rock station.
- Sunday = Melanie C Day! One of the best shows I've ever seen. Now I know why people say that small venues are way better. I was just a couple of feet away from her. It was sublime. I may write a separate post about this.
