rolling stones - you can't always get what you want

woke up this morning happy and refreshed, no headache, nothing. how's that for a good sign? then it was sunny out. perfect. but, no dice. didn't go to folk life today, long complicated story that left me sitting in tuey's basement watching the degrassi marathon. we spent some quality bonding time clipping toenails and eating weird bean dip. watched a cool hippie movie called around the fire, i think. then came home and saw legend of the fall with my mom, which had me crying off and on the whole time. good movie, though. still lots of energy tonight, but somehow i doubt i'll be finding anything to focus it on.

our lady peace - spiritual machines

good night. excellent night. jamie is the best ever.
okay, after school tuey and i went shopping, which was an ordeal because i could find no pants that fit and she's up a bra size. not a nice day for self esteem. however, i'm happy for her. go tuey, bigger boobs, yeah! after work jamie and i went to this guy kendell's house. we weren't sure exactly where he lived, so we were driving the street looking for the house with two kiyaks. we were the first people there, but by the time we started eating oatmeal, other people were showing up. and it was good. i played frisbee at 2 am in the street with kendell and paul. i listened to our lady peace with greg, the only other person i know of who listens to them that isn't canadian. then there was jeff, who left a note taped to the oven that said "scrape the fat off the top - heat - serve - jeff." he's married to kendell's sister, who owns the house we were at, and he's australian. very cool. this girl none of our little table group knew was walking around wearing a cowboy hat, jeff's knife, and trying to speak with an australian accent. she was funny. mostly, it was just a good, relaxed night with new people that were really really nice. and after jamie and i left at 3, we got jack in the box. oh yeah. and folk life tomorrow!

smiths - how soon is now?

scott came into my room today and gave me the smiths 'singles' cd. he just took a random guess at what i might like, and honestly i don't think he could've picked anything more perfect.
life is never good enough. this opinion has been with me for years now. sad to say, i've just recently been noticing how unappealing it is. i look at the way i view things, and the way other people do, and i'd like to change. cynicism works for some people - it makes me feel dirty inside, even though it's a huge part of my personality. i'd much rather be open minded and sincere.
it's a habit to write in this every day, but sometimes it's just hard to think of things to write. i'm really not all that interested in what i'm writing. it's mostly just word vomit. something to type without thinking too much whether it applies or not.

green day - castaway

well... i was supposed to go see autopilot off in concert tonight. i was psyched - i love my autopilot. but then, damn it, right after i got home from work, about 50 minutes before i was supposed to leave, i remembered that i have a project due in english tomorrow. that i hadn't started. and the guy i was supposed to go to the concert with creeps me out. so as sad as i was, i was slightly relieved when i had to tell him i couldn't go. the really sad part about all this, though, is that i didn't even get to go to the gym with jamie and ryan. 'cause of the stupid project. but it's almost done now - i just have to color it pretty.
my grandma is so silly. she called to apologize for forgetting my birthday. like i can really blame her - she's been having gall stones removed. i wouldn't have remembered either.
i'm burning the incense jon gave me... i am so dead when my mom wakes up again. but it smells good.

green day - blood, sex, and booze

watching more friends. in a mad dash across the wooden floor, i slipped and smacked my arm on a doorknob. it was pretty funny...
i am soaked in aloe. awesome. and completely distracted. and my mouth tastes funky because of the funky lip balm stuff.
let's just call it quits here. i have nothing to say tonight.

bouncing souls - hopeless romantic

someday. i swear. i will tear down all the posters that i'm sick of, i'll take down the old stickers and pieces of paper that mean nothing anymore, and i'll rework my walls. where would the no parking sign go? i don't know. i'd figure it out though.
for my birthday, my mom gave me the extra large t-shirt brent won the other week. it's actually pretty cool - it's got a viking ship on the front and says "blue crew". hey, maybe if i go to western, i could join crew. i've always been kind of interested in crew, ever since i heard my 8th grade science teacher's horror stories about it.
i honestly cannot tell you why i bought bouncing souls today, except that i forgot what they sound like and only now realize it's the kind of music i'm getting tired of listening to.
the big yellow one's the sun / my lizard beat up your honor student
i am so making more magnets, as soon as i buy more from the craft store.
this weekend really wasn't so bad. i do not want to go back to school at all. of course. work on saturday was good because i got a semi-decent good chunk of my overdo work done. and then i spent some time at tuey's watching tv and looking at pictures of brenda's family.
i did buy season three of friends! just nine more...
while i was at the pet store today, i was entranced by all the fish stuff. i think for sure, when i get to college, i'm going to buy fish. just so i can still have a pet to take care of, because i know i'll miss my dog like crazy. i'll probably just have a small tank that i'll put up on a shelf, so no crazy antics will knock it over. although if someone tried to swallow it, that would be pretty funny... anyway. birthday was just like any other day, nothing special.
