ten more to go
90 posts! can you believe it??? NINETY! This one is technically 91, and I still don't have any grand plan for the big 1-0-0. I'll have to get cracking at that. Any suggestions?
I posted a youtubefriday on friday but it hasn't shown up yet. Before google bought them out the post would show up immediately. Now it takes a few days. Stupid monopoplies. I hope it atleast shows up before halloween.
Yesterday was my first day going to singles ward. It was nothing like the movie. I guess I have to see what it'll be like at FHE tonight (family home evening, all us lowly singles get together and eat brownies and drink punch, then try not to get too excited while playing twister). I already met enough people and formed a group of friends out of the three hours of church yesterday. One is a girl name of Earing, boy name of Drenik, and nother boy name of Navy. That is what we'll call them. Fun people. But they're all a lot older than I am. Earing's already graduated from law school for pete's sake.
And, by the way, HAPPY halloween to you!!! (even though it's tomorrow, i've been celebrating it all weekend)

needy
I need a job. Every time I see a charity jar at a register, I put in like my whole wallet, same if I see a guy with a sign. Maybe it's a vanity thing, like wanting people to see that I'm a giving person. But I don't think so, I think it's one of those aggresively nice things. I get a high from giving money away, I guess? And, plus, I don't do anything else to help out the world around me, so I feel like I'm 'paying' my way out of it. (in reality it's only like a dollar or something, but still a dollar can add up)
The problem is, it's not my money to give away. I'm sure my mom isn't going to tell me NOT to give to people that are hungry, or to those jars for hospitals, but I'm supposed to be using that money for gas and lunch ect. Not charity. I wonder if she notices that I only use like three dollars on my own lunch, but come home with only fifty cents from a five dollar bill. Atleast I'm not buying porn or something, right?
Yeah... I need a job... Maybe next semester

dernette!!
I just brought in the trash cans, meaning both the recycling bin and the trash bin. The recycling bin hadn't been emptied, and I thought it was because the people decided not to come today... WRONG!!! Just now, as I was reading blogs, I hear another garbage truck coming down the street... I didn't get the can out in time, of course. That's life for you.
Personally, I blame the neighborhood. If you leave the bins outside all day, you get bad looks and reminders in your mailbox. I swear, the rich californians with the porcupine up their butts are really starting to irk me...
In other news, I plan to submit an allegory to reader's digest. Wish me luck!
And here's a funny funny website: http://www.just2pale.com/archives/
watch the last video, it's harry potter gone nasty. And funny.

universal concept #2
All that down there is different news that what I intended to convey. What I really wanted to talk about was my awesome day at universal studios! wOOt wOOt! :)
We wanted to go to the halloween universal special that's going on tonight, but it was sold out, so we opted to just have a good ol' day trip. It turned out great, we did everything except Terminator in 3-D (you see it once, you've seen it 6 billion times), the back to the future thing, and we didn't ride the jurassic park coaster. Apparently in the time since I was 8 till now, my mom has slowly stopped riding roller coasters, and I just didn't pay attention.
Thats allright though, because I got to ride the Mummy ride twice; once alone, once with mom. And that's all I really need. If you know me in real life, you know that I used to be OBSESSED with The Mummy. I watched it so many times that I can play the whole movie over in my head without help. Pretty bad, I know. Well, it's not so much of an obsession anymore, but when I got into the line and heard that music, I was all a tingle. It doesn't hurt that the ride is flippin fast. I swear, I didn't even mean to scream the first time I rode it, it was actually a result from the take off speed. It was insane, so flippin awesome. Now I want to go watch the movie. And the second one. And, hell, the spin-off too, why not?
Picture from december trip to universal: 
Oh yeah! ;) I meant to get one of those today as well, but I didn't catch him in time. Oh well.
universal concept
Elaboration in place of update: boy with cast. We shall call him 'cast boy.' Cast boy has an interesting story behind his cast. He was in the navy, joined at 17, and was doing some running. On this little jog, he stepped on a rock and his leg twisted funny. The doc said that it was only a bad sprain, without ex-raying it, and they didn't put him in a cast or anything. Well, low and behold, they were wrong and the bone didn't heal right. Now that he's out of the navy, he got some real doctors to look at it, and they removed the piece of bone that wasn't healed right, and replaced it with parts of a bone from a corpse. Woo! He's the living-dead!
And thats his story.
As for the date, no face sucking was done. As I said, he was uncomfortable, not made better by the fact that when we saw eachother the next day he almost tripped on the stairs and couldn't speak to me for the next 10 mins (geez he's way too touchy). So I don't think it's going to go much beyond aquaintances till after he gets back walking. Even though after the crutches comes the cane, atleast hell be able to drive. Then we'll see the how the real cast boy is.
In other news, my new best friend (besides Hurc and surfer K) is just about the most awesome gay guy in san diego. We shall call him 'artismo' because he's in my art class. I've never had a real gay guy friend before, not one that was nice anyway, and so this is a new expirience for me. But it's cool, he's a friendly person. Makes the 8 hours of hell not so hellish.

MIL day!
For all you married ladies out there, (and married men I guess, but I don't think any of those read my site), this upcoming Sunday is Mother in Law day, or so my orlando bloom calendar says. Buy some roses, ask your husband what your MIL would want. It'll make her feel special. :)
I went on a date last night. Despite all the differences between us, some of them conflicting (such as I only like classical rock and he only likes modern hard rock), I think we got a long fairly well. Another draw back may be that he's in a cast and can't drive for another 3 weeks. I don't mind driving, but I think him having to ask me to drive is a set back to his ego. He's one of those "stable" "in controle" guys. We'll see how that goes.

eX marks the spot
Having some emotionally draining annoyances, that can't let go. I can't believe that it's been three months since I wrote of my Robby trouble, and I'm already having more. Fantastic. I so thought I was done with him, but apparently I underestimated his ability to fool himself. After three months of me sending him maybe two messages, on the basis that I can't completely ignore the thousands of messages he's sent me, you'd think he'd get the hint. It may be ignorable if he didn't rub it in all my friends (and his too) faces. I haven't read the bulletin he posted on facebook, but I've heard enough about it to know the contents. He needs a therapist for his inability to let go of something he never had.
I really want two things right now:
-Dead Man's Chest PotC2
-X-men3
-some decent chocolate ice cream
Sure I could do with other things right now, like a few weeks off school or a whole new wardrobe, maybe more of a will to excercise. But those are subconscious issues. The most prominent issues are listed above. I'm not asking much, am I?

too many tees
This should make up for missing out on youtube friday. Here is a guy I heard about on the radio, he also went on david letterman and beat the record. Watch the transformation! :)
make my heart sing
Nothing beats a cold can of mug root beer and a penut butter and honey sandwich. Mmm. Mix it with a quiet saturday, filled with reading and some net time, and I just have to say wOOt.
But, of course, my quiet saturday will have a writing splurge. Inevitable. Not exactly the most relaxing thing, but it is a progessive sign. It means that I want to write a lot. wOOt! I know a lot of writers at ma nouvelle e'colle, (sp? who speaks french out there) that have trouble writing, for different reasons. Some start things and get bored with them, others don't feel confident enough to write or don't feel they have time. I try to warn them, try to tell them that if they don't write now, while their ideas are fresh and their brains are being refreshed daily in school, then they'll probably never get properly motivated to write. (I try to be patient and gentle when I 'lecture' them, but this is one of the issues that I realized there are gray areas, see previous post) But anyway, I guess if they don't write, I'll have less competition when I enter the feild. ;)
This is the weirdest thought I've had lately, and I blame two celebrity oriented dreams I've had this week: I want a boyfriend. Feels good to get that off my chest, but I don't see how it'll make my life any better, and I don't really know of any candidates as of yet. Oh well. There is one guy in my psychology class, he's studying to be a nurse, and has a broken leg, so maybe I'll still have a lot of 'me' time? We'll see. I kind of hope that I come out of this stage.

just for one day
I have grown to loathe tues/thurs. It used to be I could make up for the crappiness on mon/wed with some R&R, but lately it feels like it's non-stop. I don't know if that's because mom is back, and I don't get my usual reading/t.v. down time that I used to. I think that's the problem, now I don't have time to myself, so it really is non stop.
:( *pouty face*
Next semester, you can bet I am getting morning classes all the way! Two mon/wed and two more tues/thurs. Everyday, home by 1:00. That would be sweet. But I bet that I'll have to get a job by then. Dern.
Tomorrow is friday! Why am I not excited? Becuase the sooner the weekend comes, the sooner next week starts.

we can beat them
Bummed out is the mood for the day. I had a harsh reality check, and it wasn't even really caused by anything. I guess it's just been building for so long that it had to surface at some point.
Well, surface it did. It wasn't one of those 'knock me over' blows, but I almost stopped in the middle of the sidewalk in shock when my head said to me, "maybe you're the one that's wrong." Wow. And I think that it's half right.
For the longest time, I've allways told myself that there is only one right answer to just about every question or issue. So I figured that once I found that right answer to the question, that I would be able to enlighten others, and they'd have to see that it was correct since nothing else is. Makes sense, right?
Nope. Just because I have a strong opinion about something doesn't make it the ultimate answer. I thtink it took me way too long to figure this out. Now It just has to sink in. Till it does, I feel sorry for those around me. Lately there's been a lot of these issues that I have tried to force onto people, wondering why they don't understand it my way. My God, I'm an arrogant, opinionated prick. This is terrible. No wonder I'm so bummed out.
PS: the reason I think that it's only half right is because I'm trying to get away from 'ultimate' thinking. I'm starting to realize that nothing is totally right and likewise nothings totally wrong. This is insane.

smooth operater
Last night I had a really bad nightmare. My friend's husband dumped her, and came after me; Literally. He chased me down, and dragged me to his house. I kept tryingg to run away from him, but he would allways find me. And no matter how many times I tried to dial 911, it was allways unavailable or busy. I did finally get saved: I ran away after he got drunk and passed out. Then he was chasing me in a crowd of people who refused to help me. My brother was there though, and he helped me out by beating the guy up.
It was pretty bad. Mostly because it was so realistic that I thought for sure it was real. He used the same nickname for me as he does in real life, he's way too touchy feely when I'm around him, and he's got this creepy evil grin that got incorporated into the dream. I'm telling you, I'm so creeped by the reality of that dream that I don't know when I'll be able to look that guy in the face without shuddering. I'll have to go to great lengths to only hang out with my friend, sans her creepy, possible kidnapping husband.
Oh, and by the way, patrick swayzee is hot. I'm watching Dirty Dancing. Yeah. He's hot. :)

2. Elaborate on your default photo: I found an artist that made a series of paintings depicting different types of blood, and my profile pic is AB (which I am i think)
3. What's your middle name[s]? X - as in "I lack a middle name"
4. What is your current relationship status? Single with cat living with parents (pathetic or what?)
5. What are you wearing right now? High heels.To a 12 hour day at school. What was I thinking?!?
6. What is your current problem? Annoyance at my stupid 6:30 class. If it was only at like 4:30, then it wouldn't be nearly as bad.
7. Who do you love the most? ... my iMac? Writing? Those two are technically assosiated though.
8. Who makes you most happy? refer to number 7
9. Are you musically talented? No. I just like to pay those who are talented to play me nice things.
10. If you could go back in time and change one thing, what would you change? There are a few inventors I'd like to beat the snot out of... maybe it would change their invention for the better, maybe it wouldn't, but It would make me feel a hell of a lot better.
11. If you MUST be an animal for ONE day, what would it be? I would be a vulture, or a crow. I want to see things from a scavengers point of view.
12. Ever have a near-death experience? Nothing like I broke my neck, or the doctor had to revive me after a heart attack. But I would say I've been in near-near death expiriences.

18. Have you ever been in a fight? In 5th grade, I was in a gang war. My friends hung out at the backdrop, and another groups of people wanted the backdrop, so we had to beat them down. With chasing, hair pulling, it got pretty nasty.

30. What's your favorite smell? Sandal Wood
Yes, I admit it, I stole thie meme. But I needed the faux post, and therefore, I give anyone who needs this meme permission to steal it from me as I did from christine
(thanks christine!)

smell the candycorn
Halloween is in the air! Who's excited?
MEMEMEMEMEMEME!!!!!!
My favorite part of halloween is the costumes! I love to dress up, which might explain my love of dorky festivals that let me dress up and be weird. Halloween is the national dorky-dress-up day, and I couldn't be more excited for it. But that is pretty apparent with the new layout. You likee? Freckle Face Girl is very talented with the blog layouts, and it is her genious displayed here, I don't have any of the computer design talent. (like to see her blog? it's the top of the list down there. My Mac wont let me link within the text. makes me sad)
I went shopping for costumes today, and I'm torn on what to look for! Usually I have in mind exactly what I want to be a particular year, but not this time. I need some help. 
Now since I'm not buying these specific ones, all I want to be told is which type of costume would you like the best?
Ghost
Pirate
Witch
Another fine mess
If I start a petition, and get the whole world to sign it, do you think God will eliminate Mondays??
Or atleast make it part of the weekend. That would be nice. Three days are much better than two.
Anyway, my dream diary is finally done. No more interpreting wacky dreams for me, ,I'm turning that sucker in, hopefully this isn't going to be a monthly thing. I find it's much nicer to dream if you don't sit there thinking, "I have to remember this, and figure out what it means." Takes the rest out of slumber. And it takes the enchantment from dreaming, institutionalizes it in a way. That's no bueno.
Only the fifth week into school, and I already loathe the conventionality of it. This morning I woke up from one of those, "ninja/paris hilton/cute guy you've never met before" dreams, to the realization that I would get to drive to school, go to history class, drive home, and study. Yay. Where's the excitement? Where's the adventure? When you're a kid, you're told that you are in your best years, and that you should appreciate school while you can. That's a lie. School is in your life more than work is, depending on your life span. And who wants to have a long life span with things like work and school to look forward to?? That's just depressing and dull.
Ugh... so I'm suffering from a case of 'the mondays'. Great.
