weeeeeeeee the York marks were posted like 20 mins ago, and i'm fucking excited. this would be an even better day if the garbage site opened and i could stop my stalkerish visiting to subhuman.net and garbage.com.. but it's still all good
i'm so excited that i actually passed Bio and SF Culture ... and i got a good mark in SF.. i think my TA was mental when he marked my exam b/c i could have sworn i failed. maybe i actually did good.
so for those of you who care, here are my not so high marks that i am very very proud of :D
FW03 AS HUMA 1905 9.00 A The Science Fiction Culture B
FW03 AS SOCI 1010 6.00 J Sociological Perspectives C
FW03 FA FILM 1400 6.00 A Film Art: An Introduction B+
FW03 SC NATS 1660 6.00 A The Biology of Sex C
and the funny part of the whole thing is the part where it says "Academic Decision: May Continue In Honours. Must Have A Declared Major." well.. i did declare a major, but not honours. oh well. i did consider it. maybe i'll just change it later, if i decide to keep Sociology as my major.

so... long time no real update. for me thats pretty strange, but it's what can be expected right now. other than having no ambition or motivation to blog, i also have no time. which sucks ass. i'm working 40 hour work weeks, at a place i hate so much. it seriouly is fucking with my head. i'm now having panic attacks at work every time they try to send me to the outside cashes. and they find it funny. they think that i just hate being out there. no. my mental sanity depends on me not being sent to the outside cashes. i tried explaing it to cris today, but she didnt get it. how do you explain panic attacks and depression to someone? i still dont know how to.
so rather than bore you with all the mundane storys that have piled up in my head over the last few weeks, i shall just tell you random shit off the top of my head. fun eh?
eww.. Mauro just remined me of something reeally gross that happened at work today. so he was stocking grass seed and he called me over and was like 'i have something to show you' and there was like this dead corpse from something.. maybea mouse. but there was like larve under it, we could see it moving. so we showed everyone and some people thought it was 'nifty' and others thought it was disgusting. it smelled really bad. so we had to clean it, so we lifted a bag of grass seed up and there were like 30 larve under it.. we scraped it with a shovel into a bag... theres a stain now. so sick.
i got called in early today, so for the first time in FOREVER i wasnt working 1 - 10 .. i was working 11 - 7. it rocked, well as much as WR can rock. it was boring as hell and i had two small panic attacks when they sent me outside knowing full well i hated it. but there were so many employees there and it wasnt busy at all, when i left three of the cashiers were throwing paper airplanes at each other. but i got to stalk candice and cristina so it was cool.
oh and something really strange happened today. when i was on the outside cash, i started getting other peoples signals over my walkie, and i got these two people named gord and debbie and gord was aking debbie if shed checked the security videos from last night and then there was alot of static and there was something about a screwdriver, then gord was going. 'debbie, you better call 911!' and i was like WTF!! then it all stopped, and i asked mel if shed heard anything on her walkie and she was like 'uh no... you got the strange walkie that picks up other people signals' 'twas strange.
so yes... i could bitch about work forever.. and there is so much i could talk about.. but i think those two interesting tidbits are good enough.
oh.. mauro and i started a cult. but cristina wouldnt join. but candice, michelle and lia did. we took bells and put them on our chains. we rock :D hahah.. we are such losers. yet i'm still wearing my bell.. maybe i'm just a loser.
American Idol suck ass.
i need a new life.
i need to do something big after i'm done at WR.. reinvent myself or something. some customers said i should go to europe.. i wish. i tried that.. no one would come. i guess i'll just have to settle for Ohio... i need to make someone come with me. hmmm.

*hugs computer* i havent touched my computer in awhile. for someone who used to spend whole days online, this has sucked. i've been working alot. and by alot i mean 40 hours a week. today was my first day off in 4 days. and i was sooo wiped out. like on friday i worked till 10pm, then went back to work for 7:30am. fun times. so today i slept till 1, went outside and lay in the sun and read. it was great. then uma called and uma, karen and me went and saw troy. t'was ok. i dont really feel like writing much else about it.
so, as many of you may have noticed, my layout again seems to have dissapeared. over the weekend fortunecity was doing maintenance, and they said that nothing should be affected. fucking liars. they deleted my whole website. and then today, i went back to upload it, but every time i would get half of it uploaded, fortuinecity would fuck up and i would get a 'cannot find server' page. so if my layout is appearing to any of you at all, it's only half of it. bah. i have no time to worry about this shit at all. maybe later, when i care.

so i hope you cal all see my layout... if you can/cant please comment. i made it really quickly so that i could stick it up to see if using fortunecity.com would work. yay :D it works for me at least :D
so... nothing much to say. i've been really really lazy recently. first i was sick, then i had to work, but the whole time i just felt like doing nothing at all. i know that like right now, i should be at the mall applying for jobs, or i should be at york returning books. but no ones said 'hey, lets go do that now!' so i've just been content to sit around and do nothing, when i know that it should be me saying 'lets go do that now' bah.
i'm pretty much working thursday - sunday shitty shifts the whole time. i'm coming in late on thursday becasue they scheduled me when i'm not available, so i'm making a point and going in later. then i'm working 1-10 on friday, then i go to sleep then go right back there for 7:45 the next day. and i have no idea when i'm working on sunday. it's just all very depressing.
i was talking to Gwendolyn yesterday about our illfated trip to Ohio. i say illfated becasue we have 4 tickes and a hotel room paid for, yet only three people are going. it's completley fucked up. my parents are practally paying for the whole thing, yet no one elses parents will give them permission to go. fucked up. oh well. i was considering not going, but then i decided that why should i not have fun, so i'm going to see NxD in what is possibly one of their last tours. and were gonna find a mall and hit a macys :D Gwen and i are pretty much as excited about the shopping as the concert.

i'm very pissed off about this whole angelfire shit. as the three of you who visit my site may have noticed.. my layout went poof. fucking angelfire. i even made new accounts and everything, and they wont let me post my pictures on other sites. i'm very very pissed off. so it now comes time to make some decisions. these are my options:
1) keep using blogger, without a layout
2) find some other site thats free and will let me post pictures on other sites
3) use my geocities site as my blog as well as my photo site (i'd have to figure out how to put my blog onto the geocities page)
3) use my LJ instead (but i havent figured out the whole layout thingy for that)
4) use my deviantart instead (but thats an art site so i dont really want to)
5) get my own site

[EDIT] none of the links will work ... fucking angelfire... i'll put them on my geocities site as soon as i'm feeling better
be prepared.. this is a long ass post. and it has pictures which makes it cool :D just click on the words that look like this (click) to see the pictures. i have the flu or something like that and have chills. which sucks but is better than when i felt like i was on fire on the airplane this morning. anywhoo... onward ho.
Friday
Friday was a strange day. i had to leave at 3am.. more like 4. but anyways, i didnt go to bed and for some strange reason i wasnt tired at all. probably too excited to be tired. so we took two planes to SF, the second one we had our own personal TV's which rocked. I watced Mona Lisa Smile, 'twas ok. nothing special.
so when we got to SF and got our car and everything, we drove around SF which was amazing. It was sunny and goregous outside. we went down to a beach by Ghirardelli Square and took loads of pictures (CLICK) (thats alcatraz prision) then we had lunch and walked around the square.
now heres the good part :D we went to the macys, which is like a whole block long and like 6 stories high. And we went to the purse section to try to find me another L.A.M.B purse. and Mina, you would have died in the purse section. it was huge, with any and every purse you could ever want. i just stood there and drooled for awhile. the whole store was huge and had so much shit. but the purses were amazing. so i got another L.A.M.B purse. heres a pictures. (CLICK) i was too lazy to empty it for the picture. so yes.. thats my new baby :D
oh yeah and we went to a few beaches today too. we went to this tiny little one called China Beach, which had great kick ass views of the Golden Gate Bridge. And Vinita (if you still read this), i know you have never really been to a real beach so i made you this video. It was just such a cool location with the tide coming in and the golden gate bridge there, i wanted to share it with everyone. (Click to d/l)
Saturday
Today we crossed the Golden Gate Bridge (CLICK) and went to the Muir Woods to see the Redwood trees and then we drove up to the coast on this completely insane road. SF is all hills, and to get to the coast or the woods, you had to drive this insane twisty road. it was never straight. you were basically going all around the mountains, with little hairline curves. it took forever, but was a great view becasue the edge of the road was right up against the cliff, and if you had fucked up once, you would go over the cliff and die. fun times. gets your blood pumping. you had to be a really good driver to do it, there is only one person i would ever drive that with, and luckully he was driving.
then later we took the ferry over to santiago had ice cream and just basked in the sun. it was such amazing weather. it was sooo sunny, and even though i was wearing sun screen, my face still got a little red and i got sun stroke on my hand and chest. theyre all prickily and red. fun stuff.
then later we went to haight and ashbury, which is what Queen St West wishes it was. it had soo many thrift stores with kick ass stuff in there. If i lived in SF i would haunt that street like there was no tomorow. Unfortunatley, i didnt buy anything. oi found a Strange Emily shirt practally brand new for $8 in one store, but it was too small. then in another store i found a shitload of stuff including more Strange Emily stuff, but it was all double the price of the other store. so i passed on buying anything.
Sunday
we went to (pardon my spelling) Montarey and Carmell and all these rich expensive places. we went to the aquarium in montarey and i got some amazing pictures of Jellyfish. shooting them was fun becasue you cant use a flash if you want a good picture becasue the flash will reflect on the glass. but the jelleyfish were glowing and looked amazing. later we went to 17 Mile Drive which is between the two and looked at all the huge houses. you have to pay to get in and drive it, but it's worth it becasue it was just so pretty and the waves were crashing on the rocks.
then we went to Santa Cruz, but it was packed becasue it was like 30+ degrees and everyone was out in full force. then we went out for dinner with this couple that my dad knows. theyre from Canada but moved to the states like 4 years ago. they are the nicest people and we had some great discussions and it was great to get a canadian perspective on living in the US. that and they are stinking rich. the meals cost all together like $40. and they drive a porche and live in Santa Cruz where the houses start at half a million. i wish i was that rich =( and there were these guys who were there at the begining of dinner who wanted to ask my dad's opinion about something, and one of them gave me a stanford sweatshirt. free things rock.
So these are all the clothes that i bought today... we went to a Macy's and got the two blue shirts for essentially 55% off. score. i wish we had Macy's here. they have kick ass sales. (CLICK)
Monday
Today we did touristy things. like we went to alcatraz (sp?) the prision. we took the audio tour which was good. the whole thing made you never want to cause a crime ever. except that prisions arnt like that anymore. if they were, we probably would have less crime.
we went to Pier 39 today. i bought myself some salt water taffy. yum. and then we stumbled across this poster store that put the poster sale at york to shame. there were soooo many posters. i was searching through the music posters for a No Doubt poster, like i have any room at all on my wall, and i nearly had a heart attack. my dad thought i did. i freaked out becasue right amounst the posters was a garbage poster. i have never ever been able to find one. i bought it. now i'm gonna have to take some framed art work off my wall thats been up there my whole life to fit this poster. but it's so pretty :D (CLICK)
i swear we did more today. well we did more everyday, but i cant remember much of it. oh yeah. we did driving things becasue my knee started to kill me. going to a place that is all hills is a bad thing to do when you have a shit knee that breaks down after a few flights of stairs. (yes, i have a doctors appointment coming up soon)
Tuesday (still feels like today to me)
i woke up with a scratchy throat which sucked, but it only got worse as the day progressed. we went back to the big Macys so i could drool over the lamb purses... they had more, including the white hella hoboe which is what i was gonna buy but they didnt have it when i went and bought my purse. (for those who dont know what that is, it's the opposite of the one that i have now except white)
then we went to the SFMOMA (sanf francisco museum of modern art) becasue they had a pop art exhibit that i wanted to see. and little did we know, tuesdays are free. so score :D
then as they day went on i started getting sicker. everything ached, my right eye was running (i dont think that was connected though) my throat hurt.. everything hurt. then i started getting chills and i felt like i was on fire at the same time. so we drove for like the whole day. more twisty curvey roads, big flat open planes of land, big hills, big forests. we went to the most western point excluding hawaii and alaska in the states. 'twas cool, except i felt like i was gonna die.
so my dad bought me a shitload od halls fruit breezers and then some drugs for the plane ride. the ride was ok, i dont remember much of it. and my right ear still hasnt poped properly and it's like 4pm and we landed at 6am. well... i did have a big nap but still.
so yeah. i feel like shit. but i had a great time. i would be willing to move to California. but i said that after i went to LA.
so yeah.... i cant think of anything else to really add. heres sore more pictures.
