If bitten, I do bite back.

Tonight I decorate Alyson's car (not you ALISON. You have nothing to fear). It shall be beautiful. I have enlisted the help of Justin (co-worker) and possibly Daniel (guy training me in Booth/projection). Justin knew originally that I was going to do this so I really didn't have to ask him to keep a secret. As for Daniel, the only way he'll let me go on break is if I let him help. [Sandor, you are welcome to help but we have to do it around 11-ish. If we do it too early then things will start falling off.] I'm so afraid that when Alyson finally sees the car she'll attack me. She'll go right for the hair, I know it!!! I'm praying that she won't assume it's me but frankley, everyone knows that I do this whole car decoration gig. There's no use in trying to hide it. Maybe, if I'm lucky, she'll think Amanda did it lol.

Lori kind of knows what's going on but she couldn't and still can't figure out who I'm doing it to. Her first guess was Andrew probably because when we were at lunch the other day she was talking about how I could really get him good. I do plan getting him, but I have to do it at the least expected time. Anyway, so Lori couldn't figure out who tonight's victim is but I told her I'd show her the job once I was done. Which reminds me. I need to run home and grab the digital camera as well as a disposable?camera.

You all should see all the crap I got to put on Alyson's car. MUHAHAHA.


2-500 ft rolls of streamer. Green and Blue.
2-200 ft rolls of Saran Wrap
2-100 ft rolls of clear wrapping paper
4 or 5 "Window Chalk" pens
5 or 6 sporkes decorated with random sayings about sporkes
other random items that shall be taped to the car


I saw Hell Boy last night and it really wasn't bad! In fact I'll probably rent it on video. Laurie kept making really funny comments all the way through the movie. I almost poked her a few times so that I wouldn't laugh during one of those sappy love scenes. There's just something funny about a big red guy with filed down hornes kissing a girl who's who covered in blue flames.

Twords the end of the movie Laurie and I decided that we need a tail like Hell Boy. That way we could use it to do things that once seemed impossible. Like pat our heads and rub our bellies at the same time.

Laurie said I looked really cute in my new 99 cent scarf and bright green V.S. top (Ashley you saw that top. It's the one I wore when we went downtown). Which is awesome because I was a little skeptical of that whole ensemble. DARN THE REST OF YOU PEOPLE FOR NOT COMMENTING ON HOW CUTE I LOOKED!!

Bringing a pillow to the employee meeting, though tempting, is a bad idea

I don't want to go to the stupid employee meeting on Sat. I mean, sure, we get these wicked awesome certificates but honestly that will be the only highlight of the hour. Last time, the only way I stayed awake was by asking really stupid difficult questions. I don't have time to come up with more!!!!! I guess I could bring a sporke with me and jab it into my leg everytime I start to fall asleep but self-destruction doesn't sit well with me. Hehehe sporkes, that reminds me....MUAHAHAHAAHHA!!! Anyway, back to the meeting...I know there is some way I can make it more entertaining. If I could I would bring in my sketch book and do doodles of the managers but I think that's considered rude . Or I could throw gummie bears at the people talking but I'd perfer to not get beat up in the parking lot.

I started writing a new template for my page last night. I took this one I found called "Java" and I'm adding some flavor. I'm so proud!! As Kris (Ashley's Boyfriend) puts it, I'm "one of the few girls who takes interest in learning and writing HTML." How sad is that? HTML is so easy to learn and it's just another form of art, if you ask me, yet some girls get freaked out when they see all the codes.

I'm so giddy today, it's not even funny. Even Ashley took note of my cheery appearence. When I walked up to her during lunch she said "Laura you look really good toady. In fact your glowing!" Hehehe, that only added to my good mood. Mimi caught me randomly laughing a few times. Mimi's pretty cool and she didn't make fun of me but she did look at me weird a few times. It's not my fault that the most random things come to mind!

I didn't get to tell this story yesterday but I thought I could throw it in today. See yesterday we went to go see those two movies. I ended up having to pick up Amanda and being a bit late. So as we're walking into the 16's lobby I say to her "Hop on my back. It's going to be faster!" So she jumps right up there and we go galloping in to the theater. We were laughing so hard that I almost dropped her. A few of the ushers gave us looks but we didn't have enough time to beat them up. By the time we made it into the actual theater the house lights had been brought down and we couldn't see where the rest of our group was sitting. I basicly pushed her off and we ran to find Lori on the opposite side of where we came in. After the movie we both agreed that I should have kept her on my back until we got to our seats because it would have been hilarous to see the looks on our group's faces.

You say petite as if it were a bad thing

Today was nice. I was able to see both Lady Killers and Eternal Sunshine... . Sure both movies were a giant let down but hey, atleast I can tell people that they suck.

I learned an important lesson today, no matter how you say it, guys will always be insulted if you call them small, short, tiny, or any label of that kind. See I don't hang around many guys so I learn things like this the hard way. Lol as I've said three times today, "I'm a bit slow on the uptake."

Hehe that reminds me. The PETRA (rock climbing place in town) guys came today to my outdoor living class to teach us how to repel and how to get our harnesses on. It was so funny because these poor guys kept walking over to me and help me with my knot problems. I must admit some of the screw ups I did on purpose just so that they come over. This guy in my class, Chris something was seriously worried about me attempting to rope climb lol. He kept walking over and making sure I was doing everything the "right way." Then at the end of class he walks over and says "so do you think you'll be able to get the hang of this by next friday (when we'll be tested over what we've learned. If we don't pass then we don't rock climb.)?" I just laughed. Ooo those PETRA guys were hot.

I spent most of 2nd and 3rd hour helping Mrs. Bylander frame some pieces of art work for the Senior show. The best part of doing all that framing was the humor that came from trying to remove the tiny spring-like pieces that held the picture down against the glass. Mrs. Bylander had made a special point of telling Kristen and I that we had to be careful because one could fling out and poke an eye out. Sure we didn't listen too closely, honestly, we didn't believe her. Hehe yeah we probably should have been more careful because during the last 15 mins of class a spring popped out and flew half way cross the room. I could feel the breeze from the spring. I couldn't stop laughing. Kristen was just moderately amused.

Alison came by my 2nd hour to show off her dandy new nose piercing. Lol it looks so tiny!! I was expecting a ring not something like a nail through her nose. It's cute! She has the right amount of nose dimpling for it.

Nose Dimpling (sometimes refered to as Nose Dimple-ige by Kristen and I)- A small natural indentation in the flesh on a part of the human nose around the nostrils.

Alison and I have the best online conversations.

quote of the day : "Well ok, but I don't want people to think we're robo-sexuals. If anyone asks, you're my debugger." -Bender Futurama Season One Episode One

And sometimes Hanson does make your day better

I feel so weird saying this but Hanson (their new single, which rocks by the way) has really brightened my day. BRING ON THE BAD NEWS!! I have Hanson to cheer me up!! lol

Tehehhehe. Mistakes were made, computers shall be blamed.

You know that feeling that you get before you get on a rollercoaster? That anticipation; the lump in your throat and the turning stomach, it gets people everytime. It mostly causes people to back out when really they regret not going because you never know if you would have had fun or not. Man, the first time I was in line for Wildfire ("Steal your" Dollar City's newest rollercoaster) I was freakin' out. Ashley just kept telling me that I would be fine but for some reason I just kept imagining myself flying right out of my seat and falling to my death hundreds of feet below. My heart was pounding so hard that Ashley said she could hear it. I watched the people in front of me get into their seat and joyfully wait for the ride to start. A few seconds later they were off and the sounds of screams followed. I kept trying to back out of going but some part of me just wanted to go for the experience. When it came for our group to go we all piled in. I was so scared that I was shaking. The first drop came and I felt my stomach go into my throat. Then there were the various loops. In the end I came out laughing. I had never had so much fun in my life. Now Wild Fire is my favorite ride. Yeah, I hate that feeling of anxiety. Last night on the Real World, Leah had to do this bungee jumping mission and she totally flipped out. She started crying and hyperventelating. Then they had to call an ambulance to try and get her to breathe. It was so sad. I really felt her pain. Sure I would have ended up jumping and possibly NOT FAILING THE MISSION FOR MY TEAM but I understand how anxiety can get the best of you. I guess my point is that when you're given a new experience you should go for it because you'll always regret it if you don't. You'll always question the outcome. Trust me, I've passed up on a bunch of stuff and I regret it.

I've got this massive blister on my finger from the beautiful teapot that sits in my kitchen. Who would have thought that a ketal stays hot for so long. DARN THE TEAPOTS OF THE WORLD!!! It's really starting to annoy me (the blister, not the teapot) because it just won't go away. I've been wearing a band-aid for about 3 days now.

I think I've told about 5 people that they are helping me move into my dorm next year, all of which are girls and can't lift all that much. I know Amanda said she's coming with me to go dorm shopping and possibly help me decorate. I'm worried about bringing my PS2 and brand new TV. First of all I doubt the new TV will even FIT in the dorm room considering how big it is. Second, I really don't want my lovely PS2 to get stolen. I'd cry if it did. Well, I'd hunt down the theif, brutally murder them, and then cry because most likely I wouldn't be able to get it back. I'd probably slaughter them before they had a chance to tell me where they took it.

I stocked up on car vandilizing supplies the other night. I have a brand new "Car Chalk" pen and some streamers. I am making plans but nothing is final. I think I should go all out on the next car I do. I'm thinking 2, 500ft rolls of streamers and possibly tying some coke bottles to the exhaust pipe. I'm also considering some antenna decoration. Ribbons? Home made antenna balls? I'm just not sure. The next two cars that I do will have to be my best work yet. The last random vandalising that I did was so boring. It consisted of me just writing on Amanda's car, Megan's car, and convincing Chad that he probably wouldn't get fired if he wrote on Andrew's car (he only wrote the word "CORK". Whoo hoo. Big freakin' deal!!!

So here I am sitting in journalism waiting for something interesting to happen and wondering why that stupid Hulk action figure won't stop staring at me. I'm a little freaked out by it. It looks all nasty. It's teeth are just so...weird looking. And they way the made the muscles makes him look like he has some serious steroid issues. Yuck. If I had a digital camera I would totally take a picture of it because people must know the horror of this doll.

Well actuall I can probably find a picture of it online....

Here it is.....



Isn't it freaky? What's up with the purple pants? I mean purple with green?? Where they on crack when they came up with that color combination. He looks like a gay leprechaun on steroids!!!

I guess that's it for the day. Enjoy my weirdness!

I love Cumulus Clouds!!

Sure the sky is about to open up and pour like it's never poured before but hey, why not enjoy the beautiful calm before the storm. I only wish I had some blue paint because I love Cumulus Clouds!!! Watch me turn into some weirdo who paints clouds for a living.

I shall become a ninja this week. I'll be as quick as the wind. Muhahaha. I need some kind of awesome ninja name. Hmm. I'll see if Alison has any ideas. Last night she had no faith in my ninja abilities. She says that I'll probably end up falling on my face. Which is probably true.

I think I'll go sit by my window and finish reading "The Shining".

smoooooth ridin'

::sigh:: today was nice, except for the fact that I had to work concession. ARG! Anyway, I got more compliments on my hair WHICH ISN'T CUT (I just started using a different gel so it looks COOLER). I must admit that my hair does look pretttttty darn cute.

Ashley and I had a great time in Branson. I found a really cute scrarf for 99 cents!!! How awesome is that. I ended up getting really cranky halfway though the trip. Mostly because I found this really cute skirt but my pudgy ankles ruined any chance of my buying it. Oh well. When I think about it, it really wasn't that cute.

I have to start drawing II tomorrow with Bylander. I'm a little freaked out. I totally went balistic in that essay that we had to write for our drawing II final. Geeze I feel like a prick for writing what I did...no that's a lie. I love what I wrote.

I have decided that if I every meet Ewan Mcgregor I will do what I can to get him to give me a kiss on the cheek because boy that man is FINE!!! Ooo I totally want to have a dream where Orlando Bloom and Ewan Mcgregor fight over me!!

There are no words to describe my fustration

ARGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!! MRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! Why????!!!

Damn me and my ability to think!!

I have a shopping problem

I CAN'T STOP SHOPPING!!! Someone stop me before it's too late!! I found some of the most awesome shoes in the entire world and I am deeply affraid that I will buy them. Then I found out about this new brand of shoes called "Sugar Shoes" that are beautiful!! As if that weren't bad enough I have discovered the VAST WORLD of Neil Gaiman Graphic Novels. Sure I knew about the Sandman Series but I had no clue about the last temptation, The Death Series, and many more!!

I'm having a bad life

"I'm having a bad life"...I think that's a quote from some teen movie.

I came to school today expecting to have a super day because that's what's supposed to happen! You're supposed to have a really crappy day and then the next day will be super! Nope...my theory is crap.

First block was fine. The final was easy. It was second block that killed me. Bylander looked at the portfolio and said nothing...nothing. She gave me a B!!! Yet she wouldn't give me some constructive criticism. NONE. I worked my butt off this year to become better at drawing. Appearently I haven't improved.

It doesn't help that like 5 dozen skinny people came up to me this past week and told me that THEY'RE FAT. I hate that so much!! I hate that I look over at Ashley and she's all skinny and toned because she's been going to the gym every day and I TRY to go to the gym and I am GAINING weight.

HAHaha and to top it all off, I don't like going to work anymore. A certain someone makes my life hell there. I'm a person DAMN IT!!! So treat me like it!!!!

When I go home today I am going to burn my sketch book and take a picture of the beautiful flames. Then I'm going to get the film developed and show Mrs. Bylander. I'll tell her it's my best work yet then laugh manicly MUAHAHAHA!!!!

Taking life one breath at a time

I am invisible.

Maybe if I sit here and not say anything they won't notice me. Maybe if I breathe really softly they won't take a second look.

My scultpure was cut out of the All Schools Art Show. Mr. Fielding said that it was a "group concensous." They didn't want it to represent our school I guess. He looked me in the eye and basicly called it crap. It didn't hurt at first. I was just kind of numb. I smiled and said "ok, I'll just pick it up after school." I walked back into Mrs. Bylander's room and avoided eye contact with everyone. I put on my head phones and blasted Cadet for a while. When my ear drums were throbbing I pulled off the head phones and told Carissa that I didn't make it. She could have cared less. She said she wanted to see it. I told her I'd rather her not. From there I just mumbled about how the same people go every year. How Kristen, Francois , and her were lucky to have such a beautiful ability. She didn't hear me. It's best that way. She left the room for a bit, my guess was to find my sculpture. She came back 10 mins later and said that she saw Kristen's tea pot and thought it was really "cool." I knew she had seen my sculpture but she didn't say anything. That's how it is with people and my art. They figure if they can't say anything nice then they just shouldn't say anything at all. Chad did it, Sandor did it, Courtney did it, Lori did it, Mr. Fielding does it to me all the time, as well as Mrs. Bylander, and not to mention the numerous people in my life whose names I cannot remember because obviously they weren't that important.

I fought back tears for 45 mins. I tried not to think about the fact that it's my Senior year and I have yet to be in a show. I thought about how I was starting to like what I was drawing; feel really proud of how I was progressing.

I don't know what to do now. I'm not going to break down, I have too much pride to do that. All I can do is breathe. I'm just going to sit here and pretend that life is sugar plums and lolly pops for the next hour and 45 mins.

I guess this whole experience is a reality check for me.

The essence of Velma

Velma: All you care about are swimsuit models.
Fred: Hey. I'm a man of substance. Dorky chicks like you turn me on, too.


Hahahahaaa, that's actually more entertaining then that Office Space quote.

I'm a people person

Tom Smykowski: Well-well look. I already told you: I deal with the god damn customers so the engineers don't have to. I have people skills; I am good at dealing with people. Can't you understand that? What the hell is wrong with you people?


HAHAHA!!!

There's nothing like a chicken patty to make your day

Work was utterly pointless. Projection training was...informative but utterly boring. I'm sure it would have been a lot more entertaining if we were aloud to actually thread the projectors.

Today's lunch consisted of a brown, bread like meat that appeared to jiggle. I wanted to poke it. So there I was in the lunch room staring at my food wondering if food poisening would give me a chance to sure the school distric. I'm sure Ashley looked over and thought I was crazy.

I was thinking about my old clique and Natalie is probably the most successful of the bunch. I mean only the lord knows where Linzy is, Tamila has been reduced to a clone of Matt, and I...well I'm in my plastic bubble but Natalie is achieving things. She's got these wicked awesome friends OUTSIDE of school and she's going places.

I was thinking about how Linzy had these amazing plans to be an artist and now that she's finally out of school she's stopped drawing. That's why I'm not going to take a year off before college. I want to stay focused on what I want. I want to create and nothing will every stop me from doing that. When I met Kristen last year I told her she reminded me of Linzy mostly because the way she used to draw people looked almost exactly like how Linzy did but the more I got to know her the more "Linzy personality" I saw in her. I sware, if Linzy had a sister it would be Kristen. If you look at the two of them you'd see that there's all these possibilities in the art world. Linzy could have gone anywhere she wanted had she of applied herself but...she didn't. Then look at Kristen. She worked at school and achieved a really high GPA and a almost perfect score on the ACT. It's soooo cool that Kristen is on the track to real stardom. She's already been acepted to Kansas City Art Insitute but I'm encouraging her to go to Chicago A.I. because there are a lot more classes that have to deal with animation specificly. I can see really great things happening for her!

Alison's blog rocks!

I just check out Alison's blog and she posted one of those stupid little surveys that you get through e-mail and though I really hate most of them I thought it would be nice to fill this one out. I must admit it was fun...but shhhh don't tell anyone!!

Evil twins and that sort of thing

I think if I had a twin, I'd be the evil one. I don't know why but it would definitly make my life a whole lot more interesting.



How evil are you?

I don't think the word "intense" is strong enough

Working at a movie theater has its advantages and one of those is seeing movies before they come out. Friday I saw 'Passion' and wow...I cried. It is so intense that I don't think anyone under the age of 17 should see it. It is...just wow. Blood is...wow...I just...wow. I thought it was amazing but seeing it at a certain age will....wow... It was almost too intense for me!!! Everything is so graphic. It is censored in no way. Wow...I can't really type what it was like. You'd have to talk to me in person.

It's quiet. Too quiet.

I stayed home sick today because I almost blew chunks on my way out the door (isn't that a beautiful picture?). It was nice. I got a chance to catch up on my sleep and join the Angel Fan Club. Overall it was a very nice day.


I talked to Alison last night about random stuff. She and I really need to hang out. I know I keep saying that but I JUST DON'T HAVE TIME ANYMORE! That's ok, I don't work Sat. or Sun. so I'll see if we can hang out then.

bite my thumb, sir.

GREGORY
Do you quarrel, sir?

ABRAHAM
Quarrel sir! no, sir.


Hehehe I can recite all those lines from memory because that's my favorite scene from the movie (the Baz Luhrmann version).

Luck be a lizard tonight...

Hehehe, Sobe comes up with the best sayings!!! I really didn't have anything eventful happen the past few days but hey, that's ok. Laura has many adventures but some are very boring.

Today Sandor (Manager) asked a concession worker to come to the office and Laurie smacked into the door out of excitement. It was freakin' hilarious!!!!! I was red from laughter. We all made fun of her. It's ok, we love her!!!

Natalie agrees that I should be a cartoon character. She said that, today, when I was super upset and did my anger dance (me shaking both fists and hopping up and down) that I looked like an anime character. She said that the only thing missing was the little tear drop above my head. Interesting. That is the 4th time I've been told that I should be a cartoon character. I am totally going to start making my own comic book, about me, and my super adventures. I told Natalie that she'd guest star often.

I used the word "audacity" today. Natalie was impressed. I'm not sure if that means she thinks I'm stupid and don't use big words or even understand them or if she thinks something else (lol). Anyway..I told her that when people are mad they always use the word audacity. It's just something that normally happens. What can I say. When I'm ticked I use audacity.

Really hot cartoon characters...

So Kristen and I once discussed how certain cartoon characters would make great boyfriends. I have an entire list of them in my journal but I've decided to name off a few here and tell why they would make GREAT boyfriends....

1. Aladdin-
There is nothing but action with this guy. One min. he's sweeping you off your feet with a magic carpet ride and musical number and the next min. he's saving the world from evi. Let's face it, you can't go wrong with a guy that loves showing off his beautiful chest. Not only that but he's unselfish, heck he'd give up a lifetime of wishes just so that he can free a friend!! In the end, he'd risk his OWN life just to be with you.

2.All of the Ninja Turtles-
They are no only the strongest reptiles around (have you seen those bicepts?) but they also have hearts of gold. Sure they can be a bit goody goody sometimes but does that really matter when the world is filled with giant rats, biker mice from mars, mutant fish, and really big bunnies. Did I mention they have a healthy appetite for pizza!

3.Any of the male X-Men characters but especially GAMBIT!-
What can I say about these guys other then they are drawn so well! ::drools all over keyboard:: They save the world from prejeduce and other stuff but most importantly they're really hot. ALL OF THEM. ESPECIALLY GAMBIT!!

Just call me green!

You know jealousy right? It's that deadly sin that just won't seem to get off your back? Yeah. I seem to suffer from intense jealousy. I usually can contain it (which has been working out very well the past year but I just ran out of my perscription for chill pills). See, Amanda has this amazing ability to get anyone to open up to her and be all buddy buddy with her. THAT IS SOOOO COOL! I want to be able to do that! This is so high school-ish of me but I think I'm jealous of her because she's the cool girl at work (ya know the one everyone wants to hang out with!). I have issues, what can I say?!!

So today she and I just bombarded Andrew (yes Natalie, the manager that you refer to as "the cute one") at his apartment. Boy was that fun!! It's a long story which is filled with all sorts of awkwardness. I WAS TOTALLY COMFORTABLE! A situation is only weird if you make it weird. Appeartly it was weird for Amanda and Andrew, whatever. I was cool.

There is much more to tell but I must go to the Y and work out and check out the really hot guys!! hehehehehehehehe..........

Why you don't let me know it's your birthday...

I wanted to make Amanda's B-Day special because she had a crummy one last year so what I did was carefully planned and very artistic, I stole her car and vandilized it (lol). I asked some of my fellow co-workers to help me so that I could get it done faster. They were more then willing to help! Ps. you will not see me in any of these pictures because the ones of me suck, and make me look fat which makes me sad and feel fat but that's not the point!!! I did a BUNCH of stuff but also took most of the pictures.



Here we see Becca (co-worker of mine) helping me celebrate Amanda's birthday by secretly stealing her keys, moving her car, and then totally trashing it with balloons and all sorts of B-Day stuff....In this pic Becca is drawing glasses on the front of Amanda's car. I'd like to mention that all the balloons had lovely phrases on them or Elvis quotes/lyrics (SHE LOVES ELVIS!)



Here we see Laurie (another Co-worker) trying to keep me back while she trys to keep all the balloons inside the car.



Here is what Laurie came up with to put on the back of her car. As you can see we all were pretty sick of that stupid Tad Hamilton movie. In this picture you can really see the amount of junk we put in her car.



Here, Becca has helped me put the finishing touches on the car. She told me we needed to go inside because her fingers were going numb. I whined that the car didn't look trashed enough and we ended up staying out there for another 15 mins.



Here's the little "sumthin' sumthin'" we left in her trunk from Daniel (a bag of stale popcorn).



At this point we were pretty much done. Awe in the beauty of what we did....



Finally Amanda finishes off her shift to find that her car is "toe' up!" She finds it very difficult to drive home.

::cough cough:: ya birthday ::cough cough::

I've never felt so sick in my life, well, there was that one time when we were coming back from Texas...but still I feel yucky. My sister called me a big baby. I told her that if I'm a baby then I must get it from her. Hehehe, that's what she gets for not calling me for 3 weeks!! Atleast she called on my Birthday. We had a very nice conversation on how I have to pay like $900 for insurance. She called me a baby again. She said her insurance is about $1100 and how I shouldn't complain. I told her she just mooches off the Air Force and she's a doctor so she's just rolling in the money. I don't think she liked my little comment. She knows I love her and I really do.

I was at the orthodotist the other day sitting in that horribly tacky chair (BTW my word for the month is tacky, because that's what everything appears to be), and Tracy Chapman came over the radio.

I want a ticket to anywhere
Maybe we make a deal
Maybe together we can get somewhere

Anyplace is better
Starting from zero got nothing to lose
Maybe we'll make something
But me myself I got nothing to prove

You got a fast car
And I got a plan to get us out of here
I been working at the convenience store
Managed to save just a little bit of money
We won't have to drive too far
Just 'cross the border and into the city
You and I can both get jobs
And finally see what it means to be living

I never was a really big fan of hers. My sister got me to start listening to her when we still lived in Lawrence. Anyway, my point is that, that if my life was a movie and at that one scene in the movie there needed to be some kind of background song then that would be it. I can just see myself driving to work, cut to me working, cut to me driving back home. Perfect.

Someone said I was really sweet the other day and I didn't know how to respond. Do I say "thank you" and pretend that I'm really this super nice person that I don't think I am? I do nice things for people because that's what christians should do. I SHOULD go out of my way to make people happy because it's the right thing.

I went out of my way to get Laurie a lifesize LOTR character "standee" because she's a good person . I went out of my way to decorate Amanda's car because I knew it would make up for the crap she went through last year. I decorated Ashley's car everyday before her birthday because she does all these nice things for me so I wanted to show her how great she is. I used up my gas in my car to get Andrew the DVD set that he wanted because I knew that if I did that for him then the rest of the day he would just ooze happiness when the rest of his day was really bad...

It's no big deal to me. This is friendship, not even that. I'm being nice because people deserve positive things in negitive times. I'd do just about anything for any of my friends, co-workers, or fellow students and I would hope that they would do the same for others.

Yay, my room is starting to look like a room again

I put away all my books today, who would have thought that a book shelf would be such a great place to store stuff like that?? My room is looking pretty nice. It's almost decent enough to have company over. I feel so bad because I haven't had a person over here for a good year now. I always assume that people want to hang out at other "cool" places but then again you know what happens when you assume (you make an "ass" out of "u" and "me").

My first assignment for drawing class is to draw a shoe. Yes people, I am drawing a SHOE. I must admit I really thought that the assignment was crap until I saw Van Gogh painting of a shoe (which the assignment was based on), then I KNEW the assignment was crap.

Appearently I need to go on that Bill Cosby show because I say the "darndest things"...

Me:Look, I was promised snow days this year.
Amanda: Who promised you that?
Me: God!
Amanda: Excuse me?
Me: God and I had a deal.
Amanda: unable to controll her laughter
Me: I told him it's my Sr. year and I need time off and he said he'd work it all out!
Amanda: trying to cover the laughter with her hands
Me: It's true! God and I are down like that! I call him G-man and he calls me L-Dub! We are very cool with each other!!!
Amanda:now on the floor turning red from laughter

And to end this post I offer this advice...If you're not part of the solution, be part of the problem!

Wow...I am so glad I think before I speak

Bad idea #1:When told you look like a cartoon character, you mention that you have an entire comic book about yourself.

Bad idea #2: Allowing your managers to ask you if you drew pictures of other people, like your friends. Which leads you to blab on and on about your cartoons and then leading you to...

Bad idea #3: telling your managers and friends that you used to be very evil and released your anger through drawing. AKA-I drew pictures of my friends when I was upset at them.

Bad idea #4: when asked if you did that to your co-workers or managers, you stutter which automaticly makes you guilty (when really you don't...well you do, but not bad pictures. You have little cartoons of them that are humorous but in no way offensive). Which then leads to one of the managers requesting to see these cartoons mention and then states that you should post them on your blog. At that point you question how they know you have a blog which reminds you of....

Bad idea #5: Giving one of your managers your blog address.

Dorks must unite (in other words, cartoons are not just for little kids)

Futurama season 3 is coming to DVD soon. I am very excited. Season 2 was great but it cannot compare with the humor of season 3. I don't think anyone but Andrew (Manager at work) and I are excited. I encourage everyone to watch the show atleast once. It's on Fox, sundays at 6pm.

EWAN FEST 2003/2004

!!!!!!!!! Natalie and Hannah both know what it is so they will atleast be excited. I've decided I will NOT rent every single movie of his, only the good ones. So don't worry Natalie, we won't have another Velvet Golmine disaster. I've already started telling people at work. So far Amanda and Megan are the only ones interested.

Yesssire!

Change is good...

::sigh:: again

Natalie's post has brought up some very good questions about the unattainable men in our lives. For me, I develop a crush and if it is not acted upon then it slowly dies down. I develop crushes more then intensely with every year that goes by that I don't have a boyfriend. It's quite sad but in a way teaches me that appearences are very much so deceiving. Almost 90% of the time, I'm happy that the crushes die down because the guy turns out being annoying in more way the one.

A long time ago, I thought that there was such an unattainable guy in my life that I considered perfect but he clearly did not feel the same, and THANK GOD FOR THAT. He's a sick, twisted man, who needs help (lol)!!

It's funny because I had mentioned to Natalie about this new crush that was being developed, (I thought the guy had the most wonderful personality) and right after I had told her, I found out the guy was into someone else (he has "interesting" taste if you ask me. I am clearly more mature and intelligent then her). I keep trying to tell myself that it was a stupid crush, which it was, but somehow I still feel the sting of rejection.

I saw Cold Mountain for the employee preview the other night and I pretty much can sum that movie up in 3 words, JUDE LAW'S BUTT. OMG, his bare-"nicked"-butt much show 4 times in that movie!! I'm pretty unsatisfied with the ending but it was very much so expected. I mean how many times can you shoot a guy before he dies? Appearently three (lol). I was very impressed with the amazing acting job Nicole Kidman did. She really shines in this role.

Amanda and I talked after the preview about some problems that both she and I have noticed at work. Nothing that can be mentioned here but it was nice to get things about into the air. I felt like I wasn't the only one having issues. Amanda has this wonderful ability to bond with anyone. She is not in the least bit shy and her personality attracts people to her. I am in awe this ability. I mean, even though she's worked there less time then me she has managed to get closer to the managers then I probably ever will. I would love to be able to do that. I just don't know how. Anway the point of this story is that right before I left her car she said the funniest thing every!! "By the way Laura, your boobs look very big tonight." ROFL!! It was so funny and so random! Sure I was a little freaked out about it but she has a boyfriend and is very much so a christian. That just made my night.

Work is so crazy. I've had about 38 hours this week. INSANE I SAY! INSANE!!! Tonight I had some lady scream at me for not giving her daughter the student discount. I nicely explained that the discount only appies to college students and she flipped out, as if I had made the policy! I was tempted to tell her to take a chill pill. Lol, it's only a $1.50 difference.

Don't push

I have no real post at the moment because, ladies and gentlemen, I am a lazy bum.
I've been sitting on my fat pa-toot playing Kingdom Hearts and thinking "WHY CAN'T I BEAT THIS LEVEL WHICH IS CLEARLY EASY!" For the past few min.s I've been listening to this mixed CD that Justin from work let me borrow and I thought I might share a tid bit of one of my favorite songs from that very CD.


I want a lover, I can't find the time
I want a reason, I can't find the rhyme
I want to start some static, but I can't afford,
to hit the ground like I fell off my skateboard
Now a days as clear as you please, strap with protection or strap with disease.
Laughter, it's free any time just call me
439-0116 when your down with Sublime you get
funky fresh lyrics, you get nothin

-Sublime

I've been to hell and back

I worked on Christmas and it was crazy. We sold out of almost every single show (the only one that hardly sold at all was Peter Pan, which I hear is very "gay").

It amazes me how many people will choose seeing a movie over quality family time. When I arrived at work, at about 2:30pm (we opened at 3:45pm) there was already a crowd of people around our doors. As I approached they all swarmed me like flies on poo (sorry that was the only way to really get my point across). I was bombarded with questions and might I say they were pretty stupid ones.
Ex. "Are you sold out of LOTR ROTK?"
What I wanted to say was, "Why yes, we haven't even opened our doors but we sold 480 tickets to those little green elves that live inside the theater."


on a side note, I do believe the theater is haunted by the angry spirits of past employees, but that is a whole different story that shall be told at a later time.

Anyway the managers finally showed up and let us in at 3:00pm. By 3:30pm there was a line all the way from the locked doors to the street. When we finally unlocked the doors people rushed in like we were selling Tickle Me Elmo dolls that could be bought no where else. The first lady bought 15 tickets to ROTK. The next bought 12 tickets to ROTK. As you can imagine we soldout very quickly. CRAZY I SAY CRAZY!

Other then the massive amount of people the day was good. I was excited when one of my managers actually invited me over to play his Simpson's trivia game. The only thing about that is that I think he just says things like that and doesn't really expect me to hang out with him. You know how there's always that popular boy at school that everyone wants to hang out with because he's just so...well...cool. That's Andrew. He's an awesome manager that everyone wants to hang out with. It's so weird because almost all the employees have been over to his apt. to hang out and play games except me and I've been there for a year and a half (much longer than most).

After I left work, without hanging out with Andrew, I zipped over to Ashley's house to see what she was up to. I talked with her for about 30 mins and caught up with everything that was going on in her life. I feel so bad that I haven't been hanging out with her as much. It's just that I work so much that I have no time for fun.

OMG the guys at my work are so...ug! A long time ago I heard this story about an ex employee who used to say this code over the walkie (walkie talkie) to let all the guys know that there was a really hot girl in the lobby. At the time I thought, "wow I'm glad he doesn't work here anymore because I'd beat him sensless if he ever said anything like that infront of me." I went about my business and a few months later I hear over the walkie this CODE clearly being spoken by one of my managers!! I WAS SOOO MAD that they were using the walkie to call all these guys to come out and oogle some slutty girl! I yelled at one that he was being a pig and his only response was "You're only upset because I'm not saying the code about you." Which is a typical guy remark and might a say a third grade response. Now I could still be upset at all of these guys managers but I have decided that it is only fair IF they let the girls come up with their own code. We have and might I say we did an awesome job of picking it. No longer will hot men go unnoticed! "Ayeyeye. Muy Caliente!"

Christmas has rocked for me. I have not only been bless with a super great family but also wonder gifts (lol)!

Gots to love da...
*PS2
*Wireless controller for PS2
*2 games for PS2 (Kingdom Hearts and Prince of Persia)
*Sweet action Printer
*green shoes
*brand spankin' new desk
*Offspring CD

In fact I think I'm going to go play with the PS2 now. Kingdom Heats is very addictive.

Well this WAS a good day

THIS WAS going to be a happy post but to heck with it now.

So I haven't been able to check my blog for a long time so I haven't had a chance to see people's comments and geeze am I pissed off now. All I was trying to say last post was that I feel great that I don't have to curse or tell dirty jokes to be entertaining. Sorry that I'm SO FREAKIN' stupid that I can't even get that point into other people's heads. I deleted it so that people wouldn't see how I "contradicted myself" to the point where the whole post was meaningless.

Let's accept it Laura isn't smart. She's no poetic genius like Natalie or Charlee and she doesn't have enough talent like Kristen to get her anywhere but you know what? She's satisfied with the fact that she is who she is.

I'm happy with myself because, not only am I a rockin' Christian but also don't need stupid things like drugs to make my life better like SOME PEOPLE. I'm happy that people at work consider me this little innocent girl who won't drink or say dirty things.

Knowing what I have just posted people will probably criticize every single word. Whatever. Do what makes you feel better because that's what matters, isn't it?

Today has sucked, but I won't let it get me down.
Pick my chin up off of the ground.
There's somebody I lost. Somebody else found

We already turned the tables.
But he's still looking so willing and able
But I'd better not cuz I might get shot, better look away.

I'm so glad that its over, glad that it's over.
I'm so glad that it's over. The day was bad, but now it's over. I'm so glad.

It's been a long day. I just wanna go to bed.
Let dreams take over my head. No, I think I'm dying; I think I'm dead

I'm gonna pick out my Sunday dolphin, gonna sail across the ocean.
Caught by the cops and I think it's Wonder Woman, Superman Oh yeah.

I'm so glad that its over, glad that its over. I'm so glad that its over.
Today was bad, but now its over and I'm so glad. Yeah, Yeah, Yeah.

I'm so glad that it's over, glad that it's over. I'm so glad that it's over.
The day was bad, but now it's over and I'm so glad. Yeah

I'm so glad that its over, glad that its over. I'm so glad that it's over.
The day was bad, but now it's over yeah I'm so glad. Yeah Yeah Yeah!!!!!

Rant of the Day: GAMES...

I don't like playing games with people, and no I don't mean games as in Taboo which happens to be one of my favorite games. I like to get straight to the point because I don't tip toe-ing around. There is no reason to sit back and let things happen right in front of you when you know you can do something about it. Lately I've been saying "I don't want to play this game anymore" because that's all that's been happening. Games. No more backstabbing and no more highschool antics; some people need to grow up.

Natalie's party was nice. Almost everyone dressed up which made us all feel more comfortable in our formals. OO and to make everything better, Natalie had my hotsauce! I was so happy I thought I was going to hug her! I'm glad that she set this whole thing up because I got to meet a whole bunch of really cool people whom I'd love to hang out with again.

Giddy!

Hehehe I just came back from the mall and there is nothing like a full day of shopping to make a girl giddy! I really don't have much to post tonight but Natalie insisted upon me updating so here I am typing away while seconds of The Family Guy are wasted.

I got to hang out with Leslie and Daniel tonight while we picked out gifts for Leslie's boyfriend Josh. I have yet to get my white elephant gift for work but I'm sure a trip to the dollar store will slove everything. I'm REALLY excited about this upcoming work, christmas party. It's going to be a blast.

I also excited about Sat. Natalie is throwing this wonderful shindig at her house and it is formal so we get to dress up! I thought for sure I would be wearing the bridesmaid dress from my sister's wedding (amazingly beautiful) but when I put it on it looked HORRID!! I went through my entire closet looking for something that would make me look super sexy. I was about to give up when I came across my Homecoming dress from Frosh year (the one that carries bad memories of Dani saying that no guy will ever go out with me). I tried it on and WOW! I really like how it's going to look. Let's just say I'll be "bling bling"-in' when I walk in the door.

That's all for tonight but I thought I'd leave ya'll with a little more Queen (WHO DOESN'T LOVE QUEEN??).

She keeps Moet and Chandon in her pretty cabinet
'Let them eat cake' she says
Just like Marie Antoinette
A built in remedy for Khrushchev and Kennedy
And anytime an invitation you can decline
Caviar and cigarettes well versed in etiquette
Extr'ordinarily nice

She's a killer queen gunpowder gelatine

Insatiable an appetite wanna try?

To avoid complications
She never kept the same address
In conversation she spoke just like a baroness
Met a man from China went down to Geisha Minah
Then again incidentally if you're that way inclined (she's a
killer queen)
Perfume came naturally from Paris (naturally)
For cars she couldn't care less
Fastidious and precise

Wanna try

White on rice

"I wanna be on him like white on rice [on a paper plate], in the middle of a snow storm."

I love that quote from Tamila more then anything else she ever said because its true. Guys need to be aware that certain colognes drive girls crazy! OMG this one guy at my work wears this amazing sent that just, ugh, makes me go crazy! The other night he was wearing it and I was tempted to follow him around all night just so that I could smell him. I talked to Ashley and Charlee about this thur and Charlee says that it's a fact that cologne can make any guy seem ten times more attractive.

Hehe, I love working at a movie theater because you get to see everyone, and you know what that means don't ya? Ohh yeah, eye candy galore! Megan and I almost crawled over the counter today at the sight of this group of guys. Our mouths literally were hanging open. ::drool::

No matter what mood I am Queen seems to be able to have a song for it, today it was somebody to love . It's not one of those depressing songs that you want to cry to instead it's something you want to sing along with.

Everyday - I try and I try and I try -
But everybody wants to put me down
They say I’m goin’ crazy
They say I got a lot of water in my brain
Got no common sense
I got nobody left to believe
Yeah - yeah yeah yeah

Oh lord
Somebody - somebody
Can anybody find me somebody to love?

Got no feel, I got no rhythm
I just keep losing my beat
I’m ok, I’m alright
Ain’t gonna face no defeat
I just gotta get out of this prison cell
Someday I’m gonna be free, lord!

EEK, guess what???? My theater is having a christmas party!! I'm so excited because I'm helping out by coordinating the "white elephant" gifts. OOO and Amanda had this awesome idea of what to get the managers as a little thank you for being there for us this entire year, I can't really say what it is but it's going to rock!!

Back from holiday

::sigh:: I have no definition for myself and that bothers me. I really want something that I'm so talented at that people are all like "Whoa, she's ____ (insert tag here)". Freshman year I was obsessed with trying to be smart. I studied really hard and everytime one of the people in my group of friends would get an "A" and act like it was nothing special I sank down in my chair. The people in the group were always so poetic and percise with their word choice. You didn't hear them saying "like" or "um". It was like all of their words were though out yet they weren't. They came out as if it was normal to talk with such clairty. I admire them for that. I lagged behind all of them and, I SWARE, was a little groupie. Sure there were times that I felt less important then them but hey, who cares. I could learn something from them. Sophmore year came along. I then wanted to be smart and supper artistic. I remember how when I told a friend that I was cosidered being a chief she jumped up and was like "Yeah, you'd be so great at that!!" then I casually mentioned that I'd prefer to be a graphic artist. Her quick response was "Oh. You'd probably make more money as a chief." Arg. ARG TO THAT PERSON, aww I'm just saying that because it's not what I like to hear. I want support but reality is that if you suck, someone is going to have to tell you before you make an arse of yourself.

I got a "B" in portfolio again

I guess that shouldn't/wouldn't bother me so much if it wasn't for the comments the teacher made (not just on that day but the entire semester). I don't want to give up. I am serious about what I'm doing in there (though some may doubt) but just entering that class hurts.

You know the feeling that you get when you enter a room filled with rocket scientists and you know science but not to the extent that they know? I get that feeling all the time. When I hang around certain 'smart' friends, when I enter portfolio, going into journalism class, ect. It's not like this feeling should bother me because I've mostly been getting it all my life, so I'm pretty used to it but it's now a ton of rocks on top of my chest causing me to work harder just to breathe. It sucks.

It used to be that I could see myself in the future going to college, getting married, doing fun and interesting things but now all I see is a blur and that uncertainity is not a nice feeling.

Anyway I know I've got to have some kind of REAL talent that'll take me somewhere and in time God will show it to me... right? I just have to keep waiting.

Geeze if that wasn't a depressing post...I'd better end this on a happy note.

I've got this easter button that's really cute. It has a picture of a candy bunny whose ear is bitten off. The caption says "This kind of senseless violence must be stopped!". I love it so much!!!

What a Randy day!

I've just returned from the wonderful Randy Bacon's studio. He and I are very excited about my Sr. pictures (I'm probably more excited about them then him lol). He asked me to bring something that represents me but I couldn't find anything (I told him I'd rather not be characterized by materalistic things then I laughed and just told him I could find anything). I only wore one outfit, my pretty pink suit and I think he was happy about that. He told me how he was thinking, this morning, how it would be great to just take some Sr. photos that are just of the person. It was so much fun! He kept tricking me though. He'd say something to me which got me talking and then he'd randomly take a picture (he only did that twice). Other times he'd get me to laugh. I guess he did this whole set of photos that delt with intense shadow. He is probably one of the nicest guys I have ever met. I want to go back to him again for friend photos or maybe photos with my sister. I can't wait!!

The other day in Portfolio Carissa was asking the question "If you could have one song written about you what would it be?" My first thought was "Your Song" Ewan McGregor style but she (Carissa) brought up that all he talks about is the song not really the love he feels. It took me a while but I've finally come up with two choices.....

1. "I've just seen a face" by the Beatles
2. "Layla" by Eric Clapton (live)

Overall I really think "I've just seen a face" is what I
really want. This will sound very dorky but... I really want some guy to just randomly appear with guitar in hand and sing that to me. Hehehehe, ::sigh:: if only that happened in real life and not just in movies and long a waitedBuffy Episodes.

I found some very entertaining sarcastic remarks. Take a look for your self:

Whatever look you were going for, you missed.

Well, this day was a total waste of make-up .

See no evil, hear no evil, date no evil.

I'm not your type, I'm not inflatable.

I'm trying to imagine you with a personality.

This isn't an office, it's hell with fluorescent lighting.

Sarcasm is just one of the services we offer.

If I throw a stick will you leave??

Errors have been made, others will be blamed.

I played the Online Name Game and it was a blast!

"Laura!

Laura, Laura, Bo Baura
Bonana, Fanna, Fo Faura
Fee, Fy, Mo Maura
Laura!"

I want to be the minority

I open today's post with lyrics from one of my favorite Green Day songs...

"I want to be the minority
I don't need your authority
Down with the moral majority
'Cause I want to be the minority

I pledge allegiance to the underworld
One nation under dog
There of which I stand alone
A face in the crowd
Unsung, against the mold
Without a doubt
Singled out
The only way I know

I want to be the minority
I don't need your authority
Down with the moral majority
'Casue I want to be the minority

Stepped out of the line
Like a sheep runs from the herd
Marching out of time
To my own beat now
The only way I know

One light, one mind
Flashing in the dark
Blinded by the silence of a thousand broken hearts
"For crying out loud" she screamed unto me
A free for all
F 'em all
You are your own sight

I want to be the minority
I don't need your authority
Down with the moral majority
'Cause I want to be the minority"

::sheds a tear:: that song ROCKS MY FACE OFF! I want to put a few of those lines on a shirt and walk around the school all day and laugh at all the "pink shirt" girls. Well not really, I'd feel bad if I laughed at them. Maybe I'll just make the shirt and laugh at them in my head.

I found this amazing mixed CD that I had made a LONG time ago. Its got Green Day, Eric Clapton (doing the live version of "Layla"), Madonna, Lauryn Hill ( "Doo wop")

I found this funny thing called a Weather Pixie today. It reminded me of the comment on Nat's site about how much Hannah hates Dollz. Hehehe I think she'll really enjoy this.

Crushes are an evil evil thing

I don't want to go to work but I know I have to. Bad things happened on Sat. and now all I want to do, when I'm there, is crawl under a rock and hide. I felt like a total screw up and I don't deal with failure well. I can usually find the positive aspect of a situation but not this time. There was no hidden joke or witty comment to be made.

"I wait for the LORD, my soul waits,
And in His word I do hope"

-PSALM 130:5

God rocks. He seems to make everything better.

I want tickets for the Everybody Wants to Rule the World Tour. I want to see Relient K in concert REALLY BAD. ACK, they're coming to KC on the 12th! NOOOOOOO I'll never be able to see them again! Grr. Now THAT band has a bunch of cute guys! Hehehe, I'd feel like a little teenybopper if I ever had the chance to meet one of them.

I can't believe it but the short story "1408" by Stephen King is being turned into a movie. I'm so happy! That story is my favorite out of Everything's Eventual. They've changed what happens slightly but it should still be pretty freaky.

"The point is Mr. Enslin, that if you can't be swayed from your intention by a record of twelve suicides in sixty-eight years, I doubt if the gasps and fibrillations of few chambermainds will stop you."

"He paused by the evening-dressed lady and reached into the darkness, feeling for the light switch. He had just one moment to resister ( it feels like skin like old dead skin).
Something wrong with the wallpaper under his sliding palm, and then his fingers found the switch."

"This is nine! Nine! This is Nine! Nine! This is ten! Ten! We have killed your firends! Every friend is now dead! This is six! Six!"

Freaky...

BUNNY!

I'm twisted or so I've been told but I'm not really insulted by that. I like to think that I have a different point of view. For instance...I happen to really enjoy this one artist named Mark Ryden. Now at first glance you might think "Oh MY GOD!! WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS GUY!! HE'S PSYCHO!" but I really like his style of art. Sure the blood is a little freaky but it doesn't bother me. I like the way he paints people and their eyes. He's got this one Oil Painting that just cracks me up every time I see it. Its called "Dead Characters". Hehhehehe. Its just funny to me. I also really like that movie Nightmare Before Christmas. Its so great!! That one song...

"Kidnap the Sandy Claws
Throw him in a box
Bury him for ninety years
Then see if he talks..."

Good song man! It cracks me up!

The Nightmare Before Christmas rocks. It has got to be the BEST movie of all time. I enjoy being weird and so what if people think that I'm twisted. REAL friends would support me being different from the crowd (lol).

I SAW ELF LAST NIGHT AND IT WAS GREAT! I sat next to Daniel and Courtney (who brought Andy S. who has to be the coolest ex. employee/MIT ever!! Anyone who wears a "Free Kobe" shirt deserves to be ranked the coolest!) Amanda kept kicking my chair and I swear she attacked my head once or twice. Lori made some kind of comment about having to sit close to the screen because she couldn't have tall people in front of her (Poor poor Lori. It's pretty sad when people at Silver Dollar City think you're 11 when you clearly look like you're in your 20s). It was fun hanging out with all the Sp 8 people. I miss being able to go to those late showings with them. All summer I went and now that school has started I don't have any time to.

Katelyn came into my work today with her sister and father to buy tickets for Brother Bear (at least I think that's what they were seeing). I wanted to talk but it was hella busy. I kind of gave her a "Umm bad time to talk come back later" speech. I hope she didn't take that badly. I was hoping that I would see her when she came back to see her movie but I didn't run into her again. ::sigh:: I'll just have to wait till Monday.

I have this Cappies workshop tomorrow which I'm somewhat excited about because Mimi and I are going to get to hang out. She is so much fun to be around! Just say something like "mmmm bacon" or "hey let's go eat some pig products" and you'll see what I mean. That girl is obsessed with pigs! I saw her car for the first time a few weeks ago and it is covered with all sorts of pro-pig stickers. Hehe I want to get her some kind of "I ::heart:: pigs" sticker to add to her monumental collection.

I was listening to Nirvana the other night (Heart Shaped Box) and I really want to draw a picture to go along with the lryics. I was sitting there in my car just thinking of Kurt Cobain holding his guitar, head bowed while his dirty blonde hair cascades over his face pale face only revealing his mouth utting these confusing words. I really want to draw that now. DON'T TAKE MY IDEA!! MUHAHAHA!!!

I realize I never really end these posts. I just stop, as if I had more to say but just randomly posted it because I felt like it. Hmm.

Ya, I'm an irrational number!

What Irrational Number Are You?

You are φ Of all the irrational numbers, you are considered to be the most beautiful. Those who know you well have called you by many names, all golden.

Shiny Lemur Straif's Blog

My blog is so evil...

I went to this awesome site and it said that my site is 37% evil, 63% good. It was pretty cool because it gave me a detailed analysis. I got points for certain phrases and words. Its so weird but cool!

Its been an INTERESTING day

I had no idea that with Angelfire you have to use it for other things as well as a place to upload files. Well...now I have a blog there that I have to keep up or else they'll delete my account (found that out VERY QUICKLY today). I even had to delete my cute little picture of EVO nightcrawler. It sucked!!! I'm having to re-post my quiz that I told earlier today with different results.

The World Is MINE! by Demonac
Name:
You will conquer:	the United States of America, but the house-to-house fighting is much bloodier than anticipated (even the old grannies have a .44 for self-defense).
Your title will be:	Colonel
You will succeed by:	Terrorism (the Penguins pack a whollop!).
Your Enforcers will be:	Blastoise (from Pokemon).
Your first act as ruler:	Spend billions on research into immortality so you can rule for ever.

In the library again

I've been talking to Charlee and she is just not having a good time in Drama. I'm not sure what to tell her anymore but I'm afraid that she is going to get her toes stepped on if she's not careful (that or rage is going to build up to the point where she'll explode at someone she doesn't REALLY want to explode at).

We're playing around with Quizilla.com right now. We're having to sort through all the crappy quizzes to get to the good ones.

This post is for Kristen

Kristen is going to flip when she sees this!

It's an EVO Sprite of Nightcrawler, her FAV character. I think its kind of cute but I wish they had a gambit one but noooooo. Guess he's not special enough.

If only...

::sigh:: if only I was smart enough to go to a camp for bright and intelligent young people I could have that special connection that Kristen and Natalie have with people (lol).

Geeze, if only I had prayed for brains instead (lol)! Since the looks and brains are out, I guess all I have left to get me through life is my bright personality! WHOOPEE!! If only...

I finished making another batch of buttons. I now have a wide collection of Half-Life 2 buttons!! HOW AWESOME IS THAT?? Hehhehehehe, I'm so excited. I only wish I had geeky friends to share them with ::sigh:: if only...

This will sound so random but does this phrase sound right "Artistic ability of a cow"? I just thought up that phrase in about two seconds. Are cows not artistic? Why would I think that cows are not artistic? If cows could talk then this problem would be solved... if only...

Bummer man

My work hired a bunch of new people and I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing. My fear is that I'm going to begin to separate people into sections (newbies, stick-it-outies, and oldies). That would suck and be horribly mean/unfair. I just found out tonight that one of my fav. co-workers is quitting. I am highly upset. She totally rocks. I understand why though, she is clearly stressed out with work and school. Maybe she'll come back later in the school year.

Do you ever feel like something is going on that no one is telling you about? Yeah, I got that feeling today. I walked into the office and two of my managers were talking about this one girl who apparently bats her eyes. They weren't really making fun of her; in fact, one manager was like "Oh I just love her!" At one point one of them said to the other "OO that remind me...I have to tell you something". Then it got all quiet. I think that was a signal for me to leave. It wasn't like I wasn't doing anything though, I was clearly bagging tickets. So before I left I giggled and said something like "Okie dokie, I'm going to leave so that you all can talk secretly" and they laughed with me. I am way too paranoid. Honestly, I doubt that they all sit around a big table and talk about me!! It's just that sometimes I hear things from my co-workers...Not negative things but things. I worry. I KNOW I'M LOVED I'M JUST PARANOID!!!

I was reading Kristen's journal and it reminded me of how much I miss my OLD group of friends. Sure we weren't as "smart as her friends as MSA" were (apparently) but we were SMART! Man, Natalie and Linzy were so much fun to hang out with. I remember the LONG discussions we would have (at the PARTY house A.K.A Natalie's house) late at night about God or the meaning of life. That was so great. I also remember the crap that tore our little group apart!! STUPID STUPID RUMORS!! I hated being associated with a certain person's opinion. I had my own opinions!! I WAS MY OWN PERSON!!! I didn't hate Natalie! I had no problem with her. Then crap happened...and more crap happened...and then even more crap happened. It sucked. Then Natalie thought I was this evil person which sucked (and I'm sure she had a right to think so because I was somewhat evil to her thanks to the lies I had been told). Anyway, I missed the GOOD TIMES.

I have this beautiful Beatle's song in my head.

Words are flying out like
endless rain into a paper cup
They slither while they pass
They slip away across the universe
Pools of sorrow waves of joy
are drifting thorough my open mind
Possessing and caressing me

Jai guru deva om
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world

Images of broken light which
dance before me like a million eyes
That call me on and on across the universe
Thoughts meander like a
restless wind inside a letter box
they tumble blindly as
they make their way across the universe

I love it because it just gives me such a relaxed feeling. It's beautiful. I'm weird like that.

PS. I lied on Kristen's Journal Commenting system thingy. As Alison put it "and that whole Marxists joke, seriously I got it, but it wasn't funny". My toes are stepped on. Owie.
