02:17 pm - Lost and Lonely I was told once... "You're the girl, you have all the time in the world." It helped then, alot. But this time, not so much. Someone stole the wind from my sails. Current Mood: crushed Current Music: silence. except for the wind in the trees.

06:22 pm - study hard, get the grades! thats the plan at least.... Today was a good day! It was long, but good! I had a test first thing this morning, and it went great, so that made me happy! But the highlight of my day by far was when Adam came to meet me! I never get to see him at school anymore, so that was fun. We went to the UC and sat with Cleary and John O'Rourke for a little while. They talked about music, and I didn't say much...I never have anything useful to contribute to those conversations, but I enjoy listening. They really love their music, no doubt about that! :) Its great to have something you really love to do. Then Adam and I went back to the earth science building where I checked to see where my math class was, and then we shared some pizza for lunch. It was yummy! He had class at 2, and then I had math from 2:30 - 4:45. Yes, that is definetly way to long! I am dedicating tonigh to catching up on my easc 3811 course. Thats paleo and I'm a bit behind. I have to do some reading. I really enjoy that course, but while I'm in class I imagine that instead of Dr.Edinger I have Ross from friends. He would be so WAY cooler than my prof! I'm sure whoever reads this gets it, but if you don't, Ross on friends is a Paleontologist and he is a professor at a college! Which is awesome in my books! My tub got fixed today. This morning there was NO pressure at all and I couldn't have a bath. That made me grumpy, but now its fixed and I will be having the best bath ever! I realllly deserve it! I thought I would have to fight my Mom for the first bath, but shes not feeling well. She has a cold and is presently on the couch with about a zillion blankets and a box of tissues! I feel bad, because she never gets sick. Tomorrow is wednesday, then the day after that will be thursday and I like thursdays because that ususally means an after work visit from Adam! But I bet he will want to take his Juliana Theory cd back, because he really loves it. But he let me borrow it on sunday so I could listen to it at work, and I've become attached to it! I like it a whole lot. Hmmmm...maybe I could be sneeky and buy some time by letting him borrow my Thrice cd! Yeah right, that wouldn't be sneeky, cause I know you always read this Adam! No tricking you!! hahahhaha I'm kidding! you can have it back! I think I could just keep writting and writting, but I'm not gonna because I have other more important things to do, and I really doubt anyone wants to read my rambling on and on and on and on.... I wish I could put pictures here. I should learn how. Only I don't think I have many pictures, but it would brighten the place up a bit! I could always get some scanned at school! Ok, I'm done now, really! Current Mood: happy Current Music: Juliana Theory

09:27 pm - indefinite integrals take a BIG FAT hike. I'm feeling more calm now. My day had a rough start. I decided I would start my math assignment, and I looked at it every which way, looked through my text for help, my study guide and my assignemnts from the last time I did this stupid course. No luck, I was SO frusterated. So I called my old tutor (it must be pretty bad if I had to call him) but at least it won't hurt. He helped me alot in the past so I think I need to give him another chance, maybe I might pass. The stupidest thing ever is that at the help centre they won't help 1001's unless they're pretty much the last people left on earth!!! I waited there for help on tuesday for over 2 hours, then finally some student helper came over and he was just mumbling and he had no clue. Its the hardest first year course yet its pretty much impossible to get help. I'll be surpirsed if I get through this term without having a big fat mad cow. Anyway, my math made me so upset that I decided to just go online and write in my livejournal. I was on such a rant, I typed and typed and then my computer did the spontaneous restart thing. I just love when that happens. So I lost the whole entry I worte. By that time it was an hour and a half till class time and I was so fed up that I just stuck in some family guy and I lied down on my bed and I went to sleep. I never went to my 12:00 class. I was having one of those days where I just didn't want to talk to anyone, I wasn't in the mood to pretend I wasn't grumpy! haha So then I got up and I had lunch and I went to the bank and I put my check in from last week (that cheered me up $$!) and then I went to the other bank and I put in the murray club deposit, and I was cheered up again to see the account balance. I SOOOOOO hope the money has been taken out for the liquor order, if not I have a feeling we might be pretty screwed for G-Spot. Thats gonna cost us big time. After that I went to biology class, which was good, I always enjoy that. But lucky for my antisocial mood I never knew anyone in that class. I did however stay behind to talk to the teacher. She is so awesome, Mrs. Pepper. Shes funny and smart, and makes things really interesting. So the middle of my day was really not all that bad! :) ...then I went shopping. Shopping has the ability to either make you really happy or really unhappy. Today it made me not so happy. Everything is designed for tall/skinny people and I am neither! It makes me so mad seeing jean designs such as "long and lean" or "skinny flare".I know I'm not the only one with this problem. But anyway...I even tried to find a new wallet/purse. My wallet is really clumsy when it comes to the coin part, it gets on my nerves. The only thing I bought today was a surprise for Adam. Maybe I'll give it to him tomorrow night when I sleep over. Or should I make him wait? hahhaha Adam, I bet you see this now and you're thinking "make me wait?! NO WAY!" :) After shopping I came home with my parents, and we had some supper and I had abeer which was good. They put in a good mood and I'm still in a pretty good mood. And I got a haircut too. I'm not sure if I like it yet, it was just one of those $13 ones, so its really messy right now because they don't even blowdry it right. Its just a simple trim. Nothing that they could screw up too bad. But the next time I get my hair done I'm gonna get it done nice, I don't care if costs a bit more. I might be in a pesimistic mood but I'm kinda over it. Cause I know that no matter how irritated I am or no matter how bad I think I have it I know that it could be a zillion times worse and I really do have it pretty great! So what if I'm not cut our calculus or shopping, I still have somone really special who cheers me up in an instant. I'm lucky. So this is my friday night, time to go study... I can't wait till tomorrow! :) Current Mood: stressed Current Music: silence.

08:52 pm I can't decide what to do. Well, for now I think I really don't want to do any homework...although I planned on it, I kinda just ended up wasting time. Now its almost 9:00 so maybe I'll just watch some family guy. Gee whiz, I'm such a slacker! hahaha - maybe I deserve it, I totally did wicked on todays test! What I really can't decide on is friday night. Since I'm not doing any work tonight maybe I should stay in and study friday night because I have a math assignment and a test on tuesday. And I want to get a haircut too. My friend Heather was gonna come to the party at Trapper John's with me but now I don't think she wants too, and I kinda don't want to either. I have a feeling if I go it will be a last minute decision. I'm not super interested. No ones been talking about it. Since last year I kinda lost my party edge and I don't mind it at all. I'm much more focused on work and I'm doing alot better in school. Thats not to say I'm not up for a good party, I guess its gotta be goood - like Chuck's parties! Chuck, I know you will see this, so have a party! Today was a good day. I went to school at 9:00 figuring I would be there till 10pm at the late paleo lab...time table clash, long story. It was gonna be a long day. BUt I made the best of my time, I went to all my classes and I studied on my breaks (except for the "meeting" at lunch time) and when test time came I was finished in 20 minutes - giving me an hour and 40 minutes to work on my paleo lab! I only had to stay for an extra half hour to get the whole thing finished! I did in a half hour what took Jen and Heather 2 hours to do. I was working with them, as always. Now I know our slow problem is just because we talk to much. gab gab gab! I won't even mention the conversation about the orthocone! Those girls need to get their mind out of the gutter! But not really though. School would most likey be boring without them! Anyway, my accomplishment for the day was getting out of school at like 5:30 rather than 10:00! Thats awesome - I would still be there...ugh. I got a message today saying that my geoclass is cancelled for tomorrow. That sucks, I was looking forward to the little grade 2's! I'm so excited about this program, its the cutest thing ever! We have this little song/poem type thing and the kids have to do the actions. Its the best part! Use your voice, grumble and growl Now you are tyrannosaurus on the prowl! Show your horns and walk real slow Triceratops ate plants that grew down low! Your teeth are sharp, you have a mighty roar When Velociraptor hunted, with their claws they tore! The dinos are extinct, removed from their prime But their fossils tell the story of a prehistoric time! Thats just the end part, theres a whole bunch more. Apparantly these kids are really smart with pronouncing dino names and stuff. Oh well, next week should be a go, I hope. Anyway, back to doing ...nothing! And by the way, this mood fits me real good..tonight at least. Complacent - self-satisfied and unconcerned. Current Mood: complacent Current Music: the smiths

09:02 pm - Global Perspective...read read read I'm here studying biology...and boy is it ever getting boring! This has to be the easiest elective ever! I highly recommend it, bio 2041. That is, if you have a background in stuff like this. I have a test tomorrow and its all about stuff I've learned a bunch of times before. Environments and ecology and stuff like that. I like it! Except for these silly "boxed readings" that we're being tested on. Boring with a capital B!!! So, today I was sitting in the Murray Club, when some strangers walked in and sat down, and said "foosball?" and they were talking about the room and stuff. So one guy was sitting on my coat, so I asked him to move and then the girl asked me if there was anything going on in the room on friday night. And me, being nosey and in charge asked why?! Turns out the Computer Science people are not extinct (or at least endangered) after all! They have an executive this term and they wanted to have a mixer! They are nice, we got to talking and now I don't have to wonder about them any more. I'm really glad because one of the reasons we have such a great room is because we share it. Well, I guess you could say that. The CS people tend to avoid us like the plauge. I hope that changes though. One thing I'm proud of this year is trying to get to know other societies. I think its most important to know the people who "share" our room. Apparantly friday night at Trapper Johns they are holding a party for people who run societies at MUN. Apparantly its free drinks for 2 hours. I can't decide if I want to go or not, I guess it depends on who else is going. Part of me feels like I really should...so I think I might. I sent in my friend Heather's name so she could come too. Heather is excellent! She and I may hang out friday even if we don't go to the party. My plans are still up in the air for now. Adam came by for a little while last night and he brought with him all the family guy dvd's! So now I get to watch them whenever I want! Better than tv. Theres never much worth watching on anyway. In fact, I think I watch some when I get out of the bath! :) Last night I fell asleep on season 2, episode 2 - the one with Peter's Dad who retires and its so funny cause Chris wouldn't poop because his grandpa told him he would burn in hell!!! So thats where I should start watching it again. Ah well, bath time then bed time! Current Mood: geeky Current Music: Thrice

12:07 pm - Sunday Snowday I never went to work today, its snowing and theres a storm comming and I didn't want to get stuck across town in gross weather, when its like this I rather be home. I almost always love snow storms, but I'm just not feelin it today. So I guess I'll study. I have a math assignment due on tuesday and I think its safe to say that getting it done will be near impossible. Unless I spend every waking moment from now till tuesday at 3:00 doing nothing but math. But I can't really do that because I'm sure everyone knows how frustrating it is when you just have no clue what your doing. Hopefully MUN will be open tomorrow so I can get some help from my friend Sean. He's great at calculus. Today I will study for my biology test on wednesday, and I will read up on Paleo. I'm sad to say that if someone asked me what taphonomy was I couldn't answer. I think I would say that its everything that happens to an organism between death and preservation. But I still kinda don't get it! hahaha Tonight we had Twin Rinks booked for skating (murray club) but we thought it would be best to postpone it, at least till next week. Its gonna be fun though! Adam left a little while ago, he stayed over last night. I thought it would be fun for us to spend a snow day together - maybe next time. Just gives me more time to study I suppose! I don't have much more to write about...so I guess I'll hit the books. PS, listless means lacking energy or disinclined to exert effort, and thats totally me right now. Current Mood: listless Current Music: silly sunday radio in the background.

06:41 pm - ....today I sure am glad to be home! I had a long day. My schedule this term sucks. Theres nothing worse than those days when it seems like you spend the entire day waiting. But it wasn't all bad. Today was my first day back at the Geocentre since last term. This term we get grade 2's! The program is called "Junior Paleontologists" and its the cutest thing ever! I just don't really like the new volunteer lady. I don't know where they found her! She doesn't have a sweet clue, and she wears spandex...I find her funny. I think she will be more of a handful than the kids, at least the kids know stuff about dinosaurs! I worked some more on my math assignment today. Thats one reason I totally wish Bev was around this term, I know he could help me no sweat! Adam and I are planning on sending him some goodies over the weekend. We also plan on starting to watch the movies from our filmography list. We each picked a movie star and we got their filmographies from imdb and we're gonna watch them all! I picked Gwyneth Paltrow and he picked Matthew Lillard. This is the first time I ever had a live journal and I don't really know the purpose. I suppose its just for fun, because I'm really sure no one cares much about the stuff I will write about. Well, I can think of one person who would care! But that person doesn't need to read my journal to know this stuff. I would like to have a picture on here, and I would like to have someone on my friends list but I don't know how to do that yet! Anyway, I think its time for me to head out. Mom and I are going to the supermarket for groceries and then to wal mart so I can pick up stuff for the mixer tomorrow night. Hopefully between now and the next time I write I will have figured out how to improve this contraption! PS - I'm really diggin the modest mouse! Current Mood: okay Current Music: Modest Mouse
