WHOA! Complete lack of updating on my part written on Thursday, September 15, 2005 at 11:01 a.m.
Wow. I don't honestly remember the last time I updated this thing. I've started my 3rd year at school now. My birthday was 2 days ago. Today is Tee's birthday. Happy Birthday Tee!!!!!!! School is going alright. Lots of readings to do this weekend which kinda sucks but oh well. Picked up a new job and I start that tomorrow so I'm excited. Bought a new computer chair and a new pillow for my room as well. Finally got my hair cut. I've been spending a lot of money recently. My textbooks this year are so expensive. Not happy about that at all. Work was hell this summer. I was so glad to be done it. I probably won't go back there again. They provided me with a lot more aggravation than I wanted. Besides, I should start looking for something in my own field so I can gain some experience. Next week is the day that I'm suppose to come home to be a witness. I highly doubt that I'll be coming home for it. I don't think it will be worth my time and it will be a waste of money. I'm going to come home for Thanksgiving weekend and part of the week since it is reading week as well. That's only 3 weeks away anyways. I'm going to look into a Y membership this weekend. I've been waking up around 9 each morning here which is a lot better than what I was doing this summer so that's a bonus. I asked my hairdresser yesterday what colour she thought my hair was and she had no idea LOL. She kept saying "well it's not mousey blonde but it's not really brown either" I hate that it got darker this summer. Hair is suppose to get lighter in the summer, not darker! ARGH! Oh well. Yesterday we went through all of our pictures from second year and made a wall of pics. It was interesting to go through them and see the changes from last year to this year. It's weird how the people that you were close to last year are like non existant in your group of friends this year. As I was falling asleep last night, I got thinking about how many friendships (both here and at home) have changed since the beginning of last year. It's unreal sometimes. Well here's to third year and may it be better than second year and first year!
As I wait............ written on Thursday, August 11, 2005 at 10:05 p.m.
As I wait patiently for the boys' friends to get out of our basement so that I can go to bed, I thought I would do a quick update. I have from 3pm tomorrow night till 6pm Saturday night off. YAY. Heading back to the Bay on September 6th. Wow. Summer is almost over. It's scary to think about. My how time flies. My next post will be a dedication to Ryan. May you rest in peace Ryan. We all miss you tons
Day off makes me bored written on Tuesday, August 9, 2005 at 05:22 p.m.
I have today off and I'm so bored. I work all day tomorrow though so I should stop complaining. Last night I saw Stacey, Al, Shelley and Tee. I think that's the most friends I've seen since I've been home at one time. How sad is that???? I put a new guestbook up on my website since my other one expired for no reason. Leave me a message. I love guestbook messages.
Mad at work as usual written on Wednesday, August 3, 2005 at 11:13 a.m.
Yesterday is a day that I do NOT want to repeat at work ever again. Not only was I working 5am (those that know me well know how much of a morning person I am...) till 1pm but when I got there, I was locked out. I finally got into the building around 6:30am putting me 1.5 hours behind in my work. Then at 10:45, I flipped off a ladder and injured myself, wasting half an hour walking off the pain. By the time I got home at 1:30, I was ready for bed again and not in the mood to talk to anyone. Last night I went over to visit the parents of the kids I used to babysit. It was nice talking to them. They gave me some encouragement (I've been doubting myself lately) and brought me up to the happenings in their lives. It was weird being in that area too. I lived right around the corner from them for 19 years and I haven't been back that area since May 2004. Definitely weird to go back and see the house I grew up in and see the people living there now out and about. Well I'm gonna head out for a while and get ready to face the day. People are coming to put baseboard on our basement this afternoon and I'm still in my pjs with my room a mess.
Update written on Friday, July 22, 2005 at 09:40 p.m.
Just thought I would give an update on what I have been up to lately. This past week at work has been kinda slow. I think I hit 31 hours if that this week. Next week I have 41 so that is a bit better :) Other than work, I've been doing nothing. Sleeping, chilling and working. My life in a nutshell right now. Going to a play in Grand Bend tomorrow then working tomorrow night. If you read this, text my cell tomorrow night and give me something to do. Lord knows I will need distractions from everything. I'm my own boss tomorrow!!! YAY!!!! I love those nights! Working days next week except for Saturday which is 12pm-12:30am. Yuck! What an awful shift. I got paid yesterday which was nice because my insurance came out yesterday as well. I've given up drinking alcohol for the time being. Just to see how long I can go without drinking again. I don't know what my "official" start date was but if I looked back, I'm sure I could remember it. I think it was July 16th. Then again, I may be wrong. It might have been the 15th. My birthday is in less than 2 months. I'm undecided what I want for it. I think I want a digital camera but I don't want a fuss about it. I don't want a party or anything. But with Whitney's birthday being a week before mine and Michelle knowing when my birthday is, I don't think I will get away with no party. Maybe I'll be drinking by then. Doubtful though! I got some sort of inspiration to give up drinking for 6 months. I think I'm going to try it and see if I can do it. Besides with working, school, homework, working out and chilling next year, I will hardly have time to go out and party anyways. Well I must be off. Sorry for the mass amount of jumping around but at least it updates you on my (lack of a) life!!!!
Home written on Wednesday, July 6, 2005 at 12:32 p.m.
Came home a week ago today! It's been nice so far. Knowing that I don't have to go back for a while is refreshing. Started back at work the first of this month. It's been busy but nice. Those that know me well know I would rather be busy than sitting around bored. I have the majority of today off and all of tomorrow off. I just have to go to a meeting from 4-5 today. Not too bad at all. Haven't really seen anyone yet. Had a nice chat with Crystal last night. God I hope to see her soon. I miss her :( So many people to see. Work is going alrite. I'm in housekeeping as well as food and beverage. Food and beverage meeting was yesterday. Housekeeping meeting is today. I can't wait for pay day. I made a $20 tip in one room on Monday. That was sweet. I was very happy about that. I need new clothes. I think at the end of September, I'm going to go on a massive shopping spree with all my left over tip money. I have to get a job in North Bay next year. Hopefully one that makes tips as well. I have so much time off next year that I have to do something. I'm going to start going to the Y a lot next year as well. Well I have food in the oven so I'm gonna go and eat that. Until next time. P.S. Shell and Tee, leave me a message or email with your hours for the next week. I want to see the both of you soon!!!!
Tomorrow written on Tuesday, June 28, 2005 at 07:30 p.m.
Tomorrow is home day! WOOT! Soc of Ed exam was yesterday. Some good parts. Some bad parts. Not sure what to think about it really. Time will tell when I get the marks for it late next week. Gender exam is tomorrow then I'm homebound. Working all day Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Ahhh it's good to be back into the swing of things. It's my last night with Shawna :( I'm gonna miss her this summer. But September will come soon enough I suppose. Then it's my 21st birthday! YAY! Enough ramblings. Time to study and finish packing. Bye!
Ramblings written on Thursday, June 23, 2005 at 05:43 p.m.
6 days. 6 days until my summer vacation officially begins. It's scary to think that less than a week, my 2 summer courses will be over with. Yikes! And what do I go home to? Work, work and more work. I booked July 9th off so I can finally meet my cousin's fiancee (they've been dating for almost 2 years and I haven't met her yet.. and I've seen him maybe twice in 2 years). I am actually going to a play with her, my aunt and my mom. I think I might have (yet another) ear infection!!!!! Maybe I should break my no doctor spree and go visit him. Also have to visit the dentist this summer. Wisdom teeth are hurting hardcore right now. 15 out of 34 OC episodes completed right now. Well it's off to dinner I go. Happy (early) birthday Melissa tonight! I just hope she likes her gift ;)
Karaoke written on Monday, June 20, 2005 at 10:35 a.m.
Last night, Shawna and I decided at the last minute that we were going to go and sing karaoke, well she was going to sing, I was going to watch. So off we went. It was fun. I wasn't drinking cause I was driving but it was still good times. Yesterday, I reformatted my entire computer and lost all my pictures, music and everything. Kind of a good thing I guess. There were pictures on there that I wanted to get rid of but didn't have the heart to delete. Now they are gone for good. Plus most of my music were songs I never listened to so it will be good to just get back the ones I actually listen to (and that my brothers actually listen to). I'm currently downloading The OC Season 1 and a few episodes from Season 2. I figure I can get caught up at home this summer by having them there to watch before I go to bed I guess. I'm excited to come home. 9 more days. But I know I have to write 2 finals before that so I have to start studying for them. Today is day one of my "improve myself" campaign. We'll see how that works out. Well I should go get breakfast and get ready for 6 hours of classes. Only good thing is that I get to watch a movie in one class and I get an assignment back in the other one. That's it for now
11 Days To Go written on Saturday, June 18, 2005 at 01:03 p.m.
So yesterday was interesting. Gender was 2 hours long. So we went to the caf and waited an hour for Soc to start and then Soc was 2 hours long as well. So my day ended at 5pm yesterday which was awesome. Two highlights of yesterday: 80% on one of my in class assignments and an extra 10% added to my midterm!!!! I was quite happy about that. I would have been happy with an extra 5% on my midterm cause clearly my answer was wrong but he overlooked the fact I answered the wrong question and gave me 10 extra marks anyways. YAY!!!! Last night Shawna, Melissa and I went to Kelseys for supper. It was so good even though Shawna's salmon was BURNT and Melissa didn't even touch her burger. However, I ate all mine and I was very full when I came home :S I did some thinking last night and I decided that I have to change my ways soon. I have to become more active and start eating better. So I've decided that once I'm at home, I'm going to start walking around the river once or twice a day plus doing workout exercises at home to get me in better shape. Starting in September, I'm going to join the Y up here. My eating habits are getting better I've noticed. I'm cutting down on chocolate, alcohol and caffeine and starting to eat more healthy foods. I get paid on Tuesday which is good because my insurance cheque also comes out on Tuesday. Then I will have enough for rent due on July 1st. I can't believe school is almost over for the spring semester. 3 more Soc classes before the exam and 4 more Gender classes to go. I have to study hardcore next week. I have to write an essay this weekend as well. Once my Soc exam is over with next Monday, then I can concentrate on Gender, which is actually 2 essays that I already know the questions, and start packing for home. I honestly don't know what all to bring home. It's so confusing sometimes. Well I best be going. Finish my sandwich and start with the day's projects. Bye!
I have nothing to write about written on Thursday, June 16, 2005 at 10:27 a.m.
I have nothing to write about but I thought I would do a quick update anyways. I went home this past weekend and now I can't wait to go home again and be home for 2 1/2 months. Got 2 essays back yesterday. 90% on one and 80% on the other one. YAY!!!!!!! Brings my mark to an 84% in that class right now. My big toe nail on my left foot is all purple right now. Not too sure what I did to it but meh, whatever. It's dull and dreary here today. I need groceries. 13 more days until I'm home for the summer. WOO HOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thoughts on Life written on Thursday, June 2, 2005 at 11:54 a.m.
Today I continued with my niceness streak and drove Mel to the mall at 8:30 this morning so she could catch her bus. On the way home, I was thinking about something and somehow that thought led to another one, which I found distrubing. I suddenly thought about what it would be like to be poor (not poor as in university student poor but poor as in not being able to afford anything and have noone to go to for money when needed). I mean if I'm short on money, I can always ask my parents for it. With that being said, every weekend that I go home, I work in order to avoid asking them for money. I have become more money wise this year, believe it or not. It made me realize that I take certain things for granted in life. Money was one of them. Starting tomorrow, I am going to be very aware of where I spend my money (I can't start today... clearly was eating McDonalds breakfast during this line of thought and Shawna is off getting us pizza for lunch as I write). I take money for granted. It's always there when I need it. If I don't have it, my parents are able to fork some over to me so that I can continue to live (their interest rate? good marks in my classes.... I can do that) They also pay for most of my stuff so that I don't have to worry about money (most recent one was my contacts) It's unreal what they do for me and I'm so lucky to have such supportive parents. Well I must go and shower and do some general clean up before Shawna gets back with the pizza and wings and freezies :) Whatever is going on next weekend, email me or call my house or cell to let me know. I can't wait to see my Stratty gang again :)
Half Done written on Monday, May 30, 2005 at 10:45 a.m.
Today marks the half way point of my summer courses. 2 Take Home Exams due today as well as a midterm in Soc. Hard to believe that in less than a month I'll be home. Wow, the thought is kind of frightening. I'll be entering my last year come September. 8 short months (well technically 7 by the time you factor in Christmas, reading weeks, etc) and I'll be done with school. Unless I go back in order to get a promotion.
My hair is being uncooperative with me today. Times like this I want to go and get it cut. However, we'll see. I dreamt about my hair and what it would look like if I grew it out long. I also dreamt I dyed it some insane colour. Time marches on I suppose.
Argh, I should be getting ready now. Until next time
Wasting Time.... written on Monday, May 16, 2005 at 11:01 a.m.
Just wasting time until it's time to leave for school. I'm coming home on Wednesday, but not until Wednesday night. Then I'm home all day Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday. Leaving Tuesday around 2ish probably. Don't have that much to do while I'm at home. Working Friday night for 3 hours. On Thursday, Webadvisor reopens so I'll know my schedule for next year. Thursday night is also the OC season finale. I am so watching it. Have a bit of homework to do while I'm at home as well :S Other than that, I really have no plans. Just take it as it comes I guess. I hope the weather gets nicer. Going from wearing capris one day to wearing a sweater and jeans the next day sucks. I want nice weather back. I'm bringing home capris this weekend and it better be nice enough to wear them!!!!
I had a moment last night. I was thinking about my university life so far and it hit me that next year at this time I will be done and out in the working field. I got on http://www.jobbank.gc.ca today and started looking through some job opportunities in London, Woodstock, Stratford and Kitchener. There are lots of jobs available right now in my field. I'm hoping it stays that way. A semester flys right by usually. This year will go by so quickly. I better enjoy it while it lasts. It's so weird to think that I am almost done.
Blah. I should get ready for school now :S Until next time.
Leaving in 5 minutes written on Friday, May 13, 2005 at 11:00 a.m.
Have to leave in 5 minutes for class but just thought I would do a quick update. Got my hours for work next week and I work very few hours, therefore, tons of time to see my friends... I miss you guys so much.... Until next time
Home is.... written on Thursday, May 12, 2005 at 05:43 p.m.
Home is where my heart is. Therefore, I will reconnect with my heart in 6 days. But I won't be getting back until late that night. Around 11 probably :S but at least I can sleep in on Thursday morning. YAY!!!! I really have nothing to update about. School, school and more school. I finished my essay that is due on Monday. 2 more projects to go and I'm ready to come home. Look out Uniondale. I'm coming back. My Soc of Ed class is cancelled tomorrow so I only have school from 12-3! I'm so excited about that. I don't know what else to say. Until next time
Long Time written on Friday, May 6, 2005 at 10:28 a.m.
Not that it really matters. I don't think anyone even reads this anymore. Oh well. Got my marks back for last semester. Did a lot than any other semester I've completed here. Taking 2 courses over the spring. Day 3 of them is today. So far they are going pretty well. Lots of work to do on them but that's life. I'm ahead of the game so far. I'm coming home for May 2-4 weekend which is awesome. I'll be home for like 6 days which is very exciting. I can't wait to just get home and go back to work. As much as I complain about it, I really do love my job. I can't believe today is Friday. It seems like it should be Wednesday or something. This week flew right by. Probably because I spend every Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 12-6 in the school. Sociology of Education is cancelled next Friday. That's very exciting :D Well I should get going and get on with my day. Off to class soon. Take care everyone.

Do you ever feel like breaking down? Do you ever feel out of place? Like somehow you just don't belong and noone understands you. Do you ever want to run away? Do you lock yourself in your room? With your radio on turned up so loud that noone hears you screaming. No you don't know what it's like. When nothing feels alright. You don't know what it's like. To be like me. To be hurt, to feel lost. To be left out in the dark. To be kicked when you're down. To feel like you've been pushed around. To be on the edge of breaking down. And no one's there to save you. No you don't know what it's like. Welcome to my life. Do you wanna be somebody else? Are you sick of feeling so left out? Are you desperate to find something more before your life is over? Are you stuck inside a world you hate? Are you sick of everyone around? With the big fake smiles and stupid lies. While deep inside your bleeding. No you don't know what it's like when nothing feels alright. You don't know what it's like to be like me. To be hurt, to feel lost, to be left out in the dark, to be kicked when you're down, to feel like you've been pushed around, to be on the edge of breaking down and no one's there to save you, no you don't know what it's like. Welcome to my life! No one ever lied straight to your face. No one ever stabbed you in the back. You might think I'm happy but I'm not gonna be ok. Everybody always gave you what you wanted. You never had to work. It was always there. You don't know what it's like. What it's like. To be hurt, to feel lost, to be left out in the dark, to be kicked when you're down, to feel like you've been pushed around, to be on the edge of breaking down, and no one's there to save you. No you don't know what it's like. To be hurt, to feel lost, to be left out in the dark, to be kicked when you're down, to feel like you've been pushed around, to be on the edge of breaking down, and no one's there to save you. No you don't know what it's like. Welcome to my life. Welcome to my life. Welcome to my life.
Sick :( written on Saturday, February 19, 2005 at 12:38 p.m.
Well we got back to the Bay yesterday. It was alright. I kinda don't want to be back but part of me is happy to be here. I'm so sick :( Well kinda. I have this awful cold that I am not impressed with. I just spent 15 minutes coughing and sneezing my brains out. Not too much fun. I walk around with a box of Kleenex everywhere I go. My week at home was great. Next time I'll be home will be Easter tho. That's a long time *starts to cry lol* I'll survive. Well I'm off to do school work! I did it once while I was at home. Time to get serious about school again. Adios!
Stratford On Thursday written on Monday, February 7, 2005 at 09:50 p.m.
It's official. I'm coming home on Thursday and I'm bringing Brandy home with me!!!! I'm so excited to come home and to have my best friend with me. It's gonna be great! One week at home with my Joeys and my Brandys. The best of both worlds. YAY!!! There are SO many people that I have to see while I'm at home too. Stacey, Melissa, Jono, KK and Linda. Here's to a great week with great friends. I'm sorry for not always being around but I promise that will change. I need a change and I'm pumped for a week with old friends. Let's do it up Saturday night Stratty (or K-Town) style.
Aloha! written on Thursday, January 27, 2005 at 04:08 p.m.
Figured it was about time that I updated. Life has been going alright. Went to see White Noise on Tuesday night. Spent most of the movie with my head buried in my sweater. Something that Brandy finds very funny and has been bugging me about it ever since. For a while I've been craving chicken wings so last night I went to The Moose with a bunch of people for free wings!! Definitely was worth the wait. I love chicken. School is going alrite. I don't really have much to say which is kind of sad considering it's been over 2 weeks since the last time I updated. I've become addicted to the song "Forgive me (for giving a damn)" Went La Senza shopping yesterday. Lots of good deals. I was very happy :) Anyways, I really have nothing else to write about (I refuse to write about the weather like you do Dev :P). Adios
New Semester, New Page written on Monday, January 10, 2005 at 12:39 p.m.
Lately everything has been something new so I thought what better way to start off the semester than with a new page. 4 new classes this semester. Only a week into them but they seem to be going pretty well. A lot of participation marks this semester. Yikes. Not looking forward to that. I got my computer back today :D I was very happy when I heard the knock at the door. Even though I've used Jo's computer every day, I still missed mine and now it's here. YAY!! I came back to the Bay a week ago today. Doesn't seem like it at all. Feels like I've been here a lot longer than that. Starting to regret not seeing any of my friends over the Christmas break but meh, nothing I can do to change that I guess. Got paid on Thursday. That was nice. I love having money. Well I should go and do my work for class today. Adios
