I'm listening to the old JOJ classic "Strawberry Gashes" so for no particular reason that's going to be my title. It reminds me of all the turmoil I went through a year or so ago...begins back unfond memories of me being a stupid, selfish twit. So no worries my pretties ^_^ There aren't any relapses on the horizen.

Today was pretty uneventful beyond 1st period. I fianlly got that bastard of a paper turned in and I'm amused by how little I care on whether or not I pass on that grade. It won't drag me below a B on my report card at least. And I DID work on it pretty hard...I just didn't fret too much. Which is a pretty big improvement considering my normal perfectionist ways! After that I went to Foods with Rebecca and together we smoted the younguns with our superior skills of completing out of the book worksheets...then in rehab I was doing nothing (with much merriment) when Mrs. Glover randomly asks if I can draw a fireplace.

[Me] >_>;;;; I...guess so?
[John] -snicker- Random request.

So off I go on my jolly quest to retrieve colorful paper from the library where Whitney was kind enough to assist me. I returned toting tons of paper on my shoulder with my hall pass rolled and tucked behind my ear, making lots of noise with the floppy underside of my old tennis shoes. I get back in the room and set my hallpass down on the table (noting that John snatches it immediately), progressing through my artistic plans with Mrs. Glover. Initially I wanted to do a brown background for the mantle and then put red paper on top to draw out bricks, then color the middle squares black to make the impression of the inside. After that I wanted to put yellow and red flames on that part to make fire. But Mrs Glover insisted that was too hard so she just wanted me to draw one on the brown paper.

...So why did I have to get the rest of the paper?

I went to grab my hall pass, expecting it to be laid out on my books or something, but then John "innocently" places a crumbled wad of blue on my book after grinning at me. My hallpass! I ran into Mrs. Elliot's room to grab a yard stick only to be presented with a flimsy ruler o.x Then the bell rang. So I was stuck through homeroom in Mrs. Glover's, horrified when I discover the homeroom class is ENTIRELY FRESHMEN! This guy comes and sits at the back table where I'm scribbling a life-sized fireplace and proceeds to talk to me though I have no idea who he is. Don't get hopeful ~_~ He wasn't a hottie. He went blabbering on about anime and such, then I decided to be conversational and I mentioned manga and he went o.o;; What's that?

AGH!

I explained what it was to the anime master -snort- By the time he understood he was pulling out sketches he had made and then offering over and over to help me if I needed it ;_; I just wanted to draw and be left alone really. But I was nice -murrs- He finally left after homeroom and then her 4th preiod class cam busting in. NO BETTER! These were all the juniors who think they're hot stuff -sobs- They kept babbling on and on until my ears felt like they were going to bleed, so I started frantically scribbling the rest of my outline, cut it out, and stapled the bitch to the bulletin board XDD And I ran to my computer class like I was on fire.

From there I was rescued by the good company of my friends.

Marle got asked out by Travis =^.^= I be so happy for her! After so long or not being able to even talk to him she's moved to far -luffs-

I'm also going to see Blade III:Trinity with Brett and Brandon -excited-

Dun have much more to say so...bye bye!

This penguin thing is so cute! xD

Hiya ^_^ Nothing much has happened today thus far, but later I'm heading off to kickboxing with Kortni and Marle...then La Cabana -dances- I'm not sure if Brett is coming or not but I suppose he has his own things to do -nods- Even if he isn't I'm still going with him to see Blade III so that'll be neat. I hope the movie turns out to be as good as I'm thinking it will be ^_^ That series is awesome.

Scrubbing away at the baseboards at work is hard o.x I spent some of this afternoon doing it for work but so long as I get paid I guess it doesn't really matter. Then Thursday I have to skip kickboxing because we all have to work at my Mom's office party. There's just four of us (Marle, Kortni, Rebecca, and I) for it but between serving and such we should get pretty good tips. Too bad I have to clean the entire gym before the party begins...but I shouldn't fuss.

Tantrums are so unflattering.
Kendra should know this. -coughs-

I can't believe I only have Foods 8 more times and Government 7 ;_; Then Coach Bragg leaves and we get Coach Daily for Economics. At least I get Marle and Kortni in my Housing class xD We shall spend both 1st and 2nd period together then! Mrs. Merrit is going to implode by the time the year ends.

I better go now -nodsnods- I have to get changed. Bye bye!

82poptarts Going Crazy Dec 8th, 2004 5:54:43 am - Subscribe
So I go to check Ms. Ray O Sunshine's journal and I can't read it. I check a few minutes later and it still pulls up a missing page. I start worrying that my internet is down (or my journal sites) so I start navagating my way around the web looking for any trouble. I find none. I can go anywhere on the net just fine...but no sign of girlygirl.

And I start to wonder...

I check the URL again and find nothing wrong despite the fact it won't take me to the journal. Then I search for the journal and get the same missing page link. I'm really worried now and start racing through my friends' archives. No entires by her although she made one today...

Then I check my friend's list and see her name crossed out.

SHE DELETED HER JOURNAL.
OR BLOCKED ME ONE.

And I'm going insane. I'm frantically scourgning through the depths of google in search of her replacement journal because I KNOW she's made one. I'm briefly aware that I shouldn't be so fanatic about it...but within this link I can't know how she feels about me. But considering the nostalgic lines of "I hate her" I think I already know.

The search will continue.

Blegh! I had intended this weekend to be a period of "catching up" so to speak, but instead of getting rested to prepare for the final week of school before Christmas Break I'm being assaulted by germs.

Yes. I, Emily, have caught yet another cold.

-sneezes-

Last night I tried going to bed at around 2 because I knew that I was going to have to get up at 9 anyway to volunteer at Santa's Village, but every time I laid my head back I would start coughing and my nose would clog so I'd nearly choke to death. (I know this is SO glamorous) So finally I got into a kind of half sleep where I woke up every 10 freaking minutes. I slept on an off for about an hour...maybe an extra 30 minutes somewhere in there. Then I woke up for the billionth time with Dillon sitting on my chest and licking my face because he wanted outside. ~_~ I just said screw it and got up. Then the draining from standing up followed and I hacked'wheezed my way to the frigid barren outside before finding refuge in the house.

I was in a crappy mood because I loathe being sick, but I decided to turn on the Christmas lights outside and on the tree, then relaxed watching the little village on the table and all it's merry glory xD I'm such a dork. Christmas is soothing though...it's truely my favorite holiday. It's definately the most decorated one. Then I turned off the village (but I left the other lights on just cause I felt like it) and poured me a huge glass of sweet tea, popped some medicine, and cleaned my room. Once more I prove myself as a dork by taking pleasure in cleaning. I'd tackle the aquarium because God knows it needs a cleaning ["Mother's job"] but I just don't have the energy.

Now I have to look forward to volunteering at Santa's Village in about 3 hours just to stand at the door. Then I have to quit that 30 minutes before scheduled and sort through the giant pile of cans for the needy. I'm supposed to go to Hwag's Christmas Party...but I honestly don't think I'm up to it. And is it polite to go and spread germs since I'll be eating there? I don't think so. But I'll see how I feel later today ^_^ Maybe if I don't go I can rest some tonight, but if Brett pops over then I'll start PotC since he promised that if I was sick or quadraplegic that he'd come over and watch it with me. Only if he feels like hanging out with a sick person though.

Oh! Speaking of, I got to chat some with Brett's moma last night xDD She was under his user name trying to fix his computer, and when I messeged him I asked whether or not he was hiding on away or if he was actually at Seth's, and eventually I got the reply "he's at Seth's". And then "When am I going to meet you?" O_O I was pretty confused so I asked who it was, and then she told me so we started talking back and forth. Basically she was trying to fix his Norton thing because 37(?) of his files were at risk and I gave her suggestions of new anti virus software. Then she asked if I knew how to find the registry keys. I did not ;_;

But I searched and finally found a really good site with instruction and gave it to her so she thanked me bunches and mentioned that she wanted to meet me someday ^.^ I was glad to help and that she seemed to like me okie dokie. Though Brett will have a heart attack and probably disown me as soon as he reads this -sniffles- Cause anything his Mom likes is untouchable.

I _finally_ got all of my RPG posts caught up to -relieved-

I better go now! Bye bye! -snugs all-

82poptarts Don't Know Where to Turn Dec 12th, 2004 4:02:07 am - Subscribe
So I'm confused as hell, somewhat irritated at myself, and sick with the common cold. This weekend is just...spiffy. o.x

I went to Santa's Village early this morning after getting the silch amount of sleep and mixed up my time so I was there 30 minutes early. Not like I had anything to do anyway. So I browsed around a few stands when they began opening and waited for Rebecca to get there, and in that time I purchased this antique ornament and had it personalized with "Moma" since I'm retarded and can't spell (that's the way I've always spelt it). I also had the lady put 2004 and a little heart with "EB" inside of it. Since I didn't want to give it to her on Christmas I gave it to her later in the day and she seemed to like it real well ^.^ I love to give her things. I love to give everyone things.

But anyway Rebecca came and we worked at the back entrance clicking people in as they came and directing them constantly to the covered wagon ride. And we got to stare at a blank wall for 2 hours. After 20 minutes I thought I was going to cry ;_; It was so boring. We entertained ourselves by messing with Rebecca's cell phone and doodling on the entertainment sheets, and eventually we were rewarded by being released from our table. They even took our chairs from us so we had to stand for an hour! -dies- Marle and Kortni relieved us from our duties and we moved on to the can drive, but it turned out that there were so many people that we weren't needed. Hoo ray! We shopped with my Mom a bit (though I bought more for me than others xD -bad-) and then parted and headed into the petting zoo.

I WANT A DAMN BUNNY -sobs-
Though my Father would eat it -sobs more-

We got hungry and decided to go get a quick bite of dinner, but on the way we stopped at Walden's so Rebecca could make good use of her money that she got from her Dad. Which was a bunch ^_^ I got the spark notes for The Prince so that was nice...now if I just wouldn't fall asleep while I read those. That book is unconceivably boring.

But when we ran to Taco Bell I gave a quick call home to see if Brett had decided to come by and Logan said he'd called, so I called him on his cell to see what he wanted. He mentioned being pissed (but I didn't ask what) and that he wanted to come over to my house when I got home, so I told him that I would be back in around 30 minutes. So I hung up and we ate, then I went home.

And waited.
...and waited.

After about 3 hours I figured he wasn't coming so I started to read the spark notes and fell asleep on the couch. Rebecca decided to drop by with Quint to watch the Poo Song on my computer and she litteraly woke me up while she was in mid air leaping for me. I had actually drooled on my shoulder! -dies- They watched the song and skimmed around a few funny things on my computer before going on the merry way, and then I was tidying up the house when she called just after leaving my driveway and told me Brett was at Kendra's house. >_< I must have gotten his message confused (...and was it bad that I was somewhat disappointed?). Either that or he's actually pissed at me and just didn't feel like coming over and chewing me out -sighs- Though I hope that's not it. I messaged Kendra a second ago and she said she was hanging out so I guess he's still there and doesn't plan on coming over after all. I don't wanna call his cell and bother him just to ask a stupid question ^_^

Now it's 10:00 and I've gotten a shower even though I should finish exercising. I really need to get started on that periodical assignment.

Bye bye! ^_^
