2-15-05- Hey people. Um...you won't be finding many updates on here anymore. I've got another blog(online journal) elsewhere for you people about my life unabridged. Check it out here- http://www.xanga.com/home.aspx?user=the54driedapricots . Beware...it may be startling & weird...but it's my life. I'm not gonna delete this one though..I'll still have it up...just not updated :/ . Sorry.
2-6-05- I have had an absolutely INTERESTING time since school ended this week. I went to a 6-hour dance at school last night which was interesting. I went with April, Siyuan, & Andrea & saw Camille, Piccadilly, Marissa, Olivia & Sarah there. That was nice. & we danced. It was wild :) . Then today Ashley came over & we hung out watching movies like George Carlin(May the forces of evil become confused on the way to your house!) & ate pizza, & watched the original O-Zone: Dragostea din Tei music video. Then we made amazing pictures on the computer which I will soon put up on photobucket. Then Ashley showed me her skills at driving & almost kidnapped me :) . Then i was to my own devices, where I watched "LIttle Otik". Dude, I've seen a few others of the director's work & that man is DISTURBED. (shudder) Hell knows what puts HIM to sleep each night.
2-4-05- Happy february everyone! & check out my cute new doggy below! :) & oh yeah i think I fixed my spam problem. these people were actually nice & stopped e-mailing me when I clicked on their unsubscribe buttons.
1-29-05-Things I would to set on fire: Chain letters/e-mail & idiots who send people junk mail/e-mail. Dammit! I'm not absolutely sure HOW those site got my e-mail, but I am NOT happy about it(of course). I had a nice e-mail....I liked the name. I wrote it everywhere. IT WAS MY FREAKIN' E-MAIL!!! & then somehow my e-mail got out & I got offers for & crap. Of course, it's better than what our old family e-mail used to get. I'm sure that fiasco was my fault. We were getting ads for (ahem) "adult websites". (<- those people should be set on fire too). At least I'm not getting those. Hmm...These are all from the same URL it seems. Some crap from "@essentialcomponents.net" & "@reply.dailyhumdingers.com". They both claim that if I reply with a blank e-mail or something I'll be taken off some list. I'm tentative about it however because why would a site claim that when it's e-mail has "@Reply" in it's link? Anyway, this is a lesson for you kids. Don't sign up for anything online unless you are totally confident in it. Well, I guess I'll try their unsubscribe B-S. I'm desperate not to have to change my e-mail. CURSE THE CONTAMINATION THAT IS SPAM!!!!
& I qoute...."We're sorry to see you go, but wish you the best. And, of course, you are welcome to rejoin whenever you would like." Yeah sure. REJOIN YOU IN (hot firey brimestone place with little imp people). Of course, I'll be one of the imps with a large pitchfork poking these people (hiss).
Note: apologies if this rant offends anyone. Junk mail has a tendency to do that to people.
1-18-05- BONJOUR! It is currently 9:38 pm & I have not started my homework. Not that it's much.....Hey guess what! I actually managed to get in bed at about 11 last night. I'm so proud, considering that lately i've been getting in bed at about 11:30 or 12. Heh not good.
Lots to tell! Last Thursday was awesome!! Basketball was mucho fun in Gym with shouts of "My baby!" & other things. & work afterwards was awesome. I got to put a "No touchy" sign on one of the to-be-shelved carts. & Ashley is gonig to be fired for being too happy(grin). Also, the library was vandalized a week or two ago. Someone was smearing feces on the men's room walls. One guy we talked to has dubbed the culprit "The Mad Crapper". They guess it to be the freshmen at our school. I find it funny how anyone I've asked about it to don't like the majority of the freshmen. There are of course exceptions(I've got freshy friends!). Anyway, I feel sorry for the dude who had to check in there every 15 minutes to see if anyone had vandalized it. They've also made it so that the only way to get into the men's room is with a key. Heh....
See, you people may think the library is boring...but it's not. Occasionally. For example, there's the above with the Mad Crapper(think the dude decided to let it go though) & then there's this freaky guy with a really high voice(I have yet to hear him!) who goes around with goggles on his head, a trenchcoat, wants to write a sci-fi novel & apparently told one of the staff(a shelver?) that he "carries his DNA around with him". Umm......Lots of ideas about that....He also likes to talk to people. First I heard of him was from Siyuan :P . Then there's this..person..whom the shelvers call "it" because they don't know what else to call the person. It dresses like a woman, but has the tall build & stuff of a man, & is either a man-looking-like woman or....a crossdresser. "It" keeps to itself though. Hey, I know it sounds a little rude, but what else would you call someone like that(yeah, I know. There's probably a better word)? There's also many students who go there. like the group of punkies who cut their hair in the library! Man, who says the library is boring....All the time, anyway.
Orchestra is awesome this week because Mr. Salvante's away & we get a really cool subby who plays the guitar & does magic tricks.
Weekend was AWESOME!! I slept over at Amy's house with two other people & we watched movies & listened to music. & I decided officially that I am not fond at all of albinoblacksheep.com. THEY HAVE THE FREAKIEST FLASH FILMIES ON THERE!! We watched this random movie that had spoons in it & for the rest of the sleepover qouted from it.."May I inquire as to where you keep your spoons?" It was in a series & the first 1 & 1/2 of it was...interesting. The rest was...DISTURBING. We didn't finish watching the others in the series. NO WAY.
Went sledding in Gym class yesterday on lunch trays. Awesome times.
Found out that a necklace I made & was wearing today that has a female-like pendant on it it the symbol of fertility. Still wearing it because I like it. & who else but Andrea would know what it means :P ? & I gave birth to 2 of Siyuan water bottles. Don't ask. & we all sit at THE ESTROGEN TABLE during lunch.
Well that's my spaz life update for today. & I like my Modest Mouse CD I got at the library. Wouldn't play it with parents in hearing range though.
Must return library stuff. Have 18-19 items checked out, 13 of which are Music CD's. Heh....
1-18-05- Yo peeps. Yeah, I've been wanting to say that for the longest time but stressed against it. Actually, on the topic of being myself(no ego run here...I hope), I decided randomly to check out a few descriptions of hipsters tonight, & weirdly enough...much of the definitions described me almost to a T. I don't know if that is a good thing or a bad thing because these were all written by your average joe & they sounded somewhat negative towards hipsters. I didn't know what a hipster was before I read that so I guess I'm just a sort of natural hipster(scowls at being labeled so well). However, I do have some differences from the definitions, of course. They kept saying hipsters were all anti-conformity, which I sortof am....I don't like wearing the current fashion almost at all(i.e. aeropostale, abercrombie & fitch) unless forced to, but that hipsters were being a type of conformist by dressing like other hipsters or some stuff. I have thought about this before....& actually, you can't really count that as conformity because unless they actually choose to look like other hipsters, it's hard to avoid looking like anybody else because there are people out there with the same mind as you. & then there was another part about hipsters living off their parents all the time & trying to look poor. I don't want to live off my parents constantly; that's why I got a job, although that was mostly to reimburse them for paying for so much for me(presents, orchestra trips, etc..). But I don't intend to live off my parents when I get out of the house. It'd be nice of them to help me get through college, but I do plan on having my own income...
Anyway, those are my thoughts for the day, thoguh they probably sound pretty confusing. It's mostly for my own therapy..or something.
Had a 2-hour delay today. That was cool, except I spent the time talking to people online & working on unfinished homework, which I didn't finish anyway & got some beef for that from 2 of my friends, one of which is a real pain about these things. God, she's such a pain in the neck! She's worse than my parents because when we talk about things like this she gets this what's-wrong-with-you?! attitude & it freaking(apology) annoys me! She's supposed to be my friend, not my Mom.
Anyway, I've got a shower to take, quickie clothes to wash & an e-mail to send & it's 10:42 pm. See ya' folkies!
1-10-05-Hey folkies. What's up? Monday land today again. However this time at HOME. Well I was busy today because I had 30 notecards due today for Western Civilizations & I only got 20 done last night. I managed to get another 5 done today. So I turned in my cards 5 short. Ah well. I'm a lazy bum. I've been drawing lots of masks lately. I'll show you sometime. & Adam went back this weekend(tearofsadness). But he says he wants to get back together two weekends from now for a football thing. Hey, if he comes back up, that's enough for me. He also left a broken unfinished clay teapot & some fountain remain thingys here for me to play with. Yay! I also read "The Da Vinci Code" this weekend. AWESOME book people. Inspiration for me. Which reminds me...a certain someone told me that if it were the 70's, I'd be a hippie. Nothing wrong with that..(smile)...'cept for the drugs. I wouldn't do the drugs. Don't need 'em.
Ok la la la I gotta go to the bathroom. P.S. I put my e-mail on thw bottom of these pages so now you people can e-mail me! Yay! P.S.2. Yeah I just realized mt freaking updates site thingy down there is all messed up because I somehow managed to delete some of the bottom half(bangs head on wall). I really have to start copying & saving this stuff somewhere OTHER than on here.....(gets headache from banging head)DON'T FEEL SORRY FOR ME BECAUSE I DESERVE A #@!^&% HEADACHE!!(sorry kiddies. I'm just really upset)

I live in a perfect place to take photos of sunsets. I have taken at least 100. A bunch of them are just the same sunset at different times, though. But anyway, to save space(& time) I haven't put all 100 up. Just the better ones.
