Well today is Tuesday, the 21st of May. It's only 9:30 now but
i've been in my pjs since 4:00; obviously I didn't go out tonight. It
seems ironic that I never want to go out on a Tuesday even though
Tuesday is the day when all the deals are on for fun stuff to do, which,
in this town, is pretty much just movies. The most exciting thing
to do here is leave.
The great walk is comming up, it's nice to train, it makes me feel kinda...
healthy, I guess. I'm hoping I can finish in 9 hours this year. Last year it took me 12
but I don't plan on hurting myself this time.
I think I'll go eat a cookie.
It's Thursday now, the 23rd. I got Katie's birthday present today, and some other stuff.
I got some jeans for 5 bucks, jeans I thought were 40 bucks, that were originally 70 bucks,
so I got katie's shirt and pants for about 17 bucks! I'd been expecting to spend about
45 dollars more than I had so I thought I'd buy some other stuff too. Next thing I knew,
I was walking home with a hundred dollars worth of stuff in my hands. Is that a bad thing?
I know I'll have to be rich when I grow up because I couldn't live without money. I've already
decided that I'm going to have a business, I just don't know what kind of business yet.
These pants are pretty tight, no cookie for me tonight.
June 13th. Oh so hot, so very, very hot. Even in the shade is HEAT! Exams are soon,
I should be doing work. It's just too hot to think. My ankle hurts. Boo hoo poor me.
I'm such a suck. These entries are just getting shorter and shorter. Ain't that the
way it always goes. You should see my diary. Let's see... the last entry in that was
probably March.
I like green. Green is deffinitely underappreciated.
Yay! Today was my last day of school. Just a spanish exam today, and it was so easy. I was,
however the last to finish of course, as usual. Summer's finally here! Well actually
this year has gone by really quickly. Strange how that happens as you get older.
I'm going to McIvor tommorow, it'll be fun. Too bad my dad won't be able to pick us up till 7
and we're heading out around 1. Oh, by the way, today is the 20th of june.
JULY 1ST!!! HAPPY 135TH BIRTHDAY, CANADA!!
November 18, Well I know it's been a while, but four and a half months isn't bad,
I haven't written in my diary in... well, it's been a while. So what's new
with my life? Since July, some stuff has happened, good and bad, I won't
mention everything here, I got a job at Thriftys, yay! ...(two weeks later) Work sucks.
Music is good, once you break away from the pop and rap, sorry to anyone
who really likes poop and crap, I mean pop and rap. I know that was immature,
but I actually spelled poop instead of pop by accident.
I think I should just stop typing now.
(by jove! what a splendid idea!)
Today is the 29th, well no, it is now the 30th of November. I'll be leaving for
Courtenay in about 8 1\2 hours. I'm going to a red cross meeting and I'm looking
forward to it. I really should be in bed now because I don't want to be tired
at the meeting, but I had to work on my site. If you've seen my friend Liz's site
you know that it's way better than mine, but hey I've got to at least try to compete.
I'm not usually a competetive person but she's had over 3000, or was it 5000, visitors
to her site, you've got to admit that's a little intimidating.
And now for something completely different, I just a good movie called Out Cold.
And a funny thing happened too, I was at Jeremy's house with Katie (and Jeremy,
of course) and we were talking about the Karaoke contest at our school, so
I said I was thinking of singing something by Jack Johnson, a singer whom neither
Katie nor Jeremy had heard of, because he's not all that popular. Later that
night when we were watching the movie, It turned out that most of the songs
featured on it were by Jack Johnson, what a fluke huh?
So it's the 30th now, I went to the Red Cross meeting today, yay! It was good.
I saw some people I knew from the Youth Symposium I went to At the beginning
of the month. And I saw Shawna, she's so cool. She works for the Red Cross.
At the meeting we talked about an art display and presentation for the media
on the 10th of December. Hey Christmas is less than a month away!
Well today is the 7th of December. It's a little difficult to type right now,
seeing as I am a little drunk. Hey, I only drank like half a 2-6. The staff party
was over so fast. Wow, normally I wouldn't say all this, but as I said before,
I was a little drunk. However, I have little or no regrets; It was fun.
Hmmm.. looking back on that makes me want to never drink again. I don't sound very smart
when I drink. How about another exapmle: "Your table is oval."
(here's a hint: it wasn't oval)
Nice people make me happy.
(sometime in february)
My aunt was visiting for a week and a half, but she's gone now. We had some good times.
We went to meditation, walked a lot, and talked. She's a great person to talk to.
It's strange how little I actually talk to people, most of the time it's just banter or
chit-chat. Worst of all is when people compete, trying to impress eachother, good luck!
Well maybe there is something worse, when you're not competing but you're talking to
someone who is.
Your Karma ran over my Dogma.
(march?)
I'm begining to realize how my actions can effect other people, mostly
people I don't know too well. It's so easy to offend some people,
and I really hate being mean but it takes a lot of effort to be nice
all the time. I don't know why I am mean sometimes,
I don't even notice it when I do. Until afterwards.
I'm sorry.
It is now the 21st of April. Yeah, my birthday was a few days ago. I haven't had
a party for it yet. I did go out to Moxie's with Liz and Mike on the 15th though.
We had fun; Liz talked about her boyfriend, Courtney. Mike talked about his
girlfriend, Courtenay. Liz let me drive her [mom's] car, a standard.
Speaking of driving I've had my L for over a year now. I'll get my N soon...
I've decided to not get a car for a few years. I'm going to buy a bike, a nice bike.
I think Andrea would like me to get a road bike; but I've decided to get a cross
country bike. It's the last day of a four day weekend, I started my homework this
morning, worked on it for about an hour -- only 63 more hours till it's all done!
Now that summer is here once again, I'm happy. My bike helps to cheer me
up. I've been riding it pretty much every day. Andrea came home, I
really missed her. She and Jenny and I will have some great
adventures this summer. I plan to go camping and cycling a lot, I also
plan to work a lot. I don't mind work, I want/need the money. As long
as I don't waste my summer, I'll be happy. Even if I waste a little bit of
it, I'll be happy. I've been trying to work out my courses for next year
but both schools are unorganized and don't have the time tables ready.
That's right, I'll be going to Carihi AND Timberline. I want the best
of both schools.
I'm not sure what day it is... It's a Thursday in mid-July. It's summer, that's
all that matters. I've been so lazy these last few days... I finally cycled
to Victoria though. Sure I started just North of Nanimo, it still counts.
As for anything else that's new... nope that's it. If I were to mention any
activities worth mentioning I'd be talking about someone else. I like to
call this my time off, but I'll have to end it soon because my body is beginning
to ache.
My last year of high school is underway and going fast.
I don't know what to do after school yet; I'm sure it'll all work out okay.
I don't know where I'll graduate from either. I should probably just worry
about my grades for now, and work. I got a raise, I was a little surprised
but I guess I have been working for over a year now.
Such wit as is customary on occasions like this is on the tip of my tongue
and dripping onto the floor, where it is of no use to anyone.
(I'm tired and can't think of anything funny to say.)
October 28th
I'd forgotten how to be happy but I remember now.
October is my favorite month.
My friend's mom recently told me this:
When her youngest daughter(my friend's sister) was upset(she didn't want to go to school
or something like that), she asked her a simple question: "Do you want to have a good day
or do you want to have a bad day?" The daughter replied, "I want to have a good day."
And she did.
Which brings me to my conclusion:
"Most people are about as happy as they make up their minds to be" --Abraham Lincoln
(APRIL 23/24)
Quotes are tacky. Or is it corny? ...cheesy? Sure, all of those would work.
So how're things? Uh, I'm not used to writing to myself anymore. I guess
what I meant to say was something more like "rant, rant, rant, blah, blah"
No, that's not me either...
Here's what I did today... No.
I was just at the movie store; looking for a movie. All the movies I saw
were making me feel a little - how-do-you-say... nauseous. They were all so
fake, predictable, designed only to please an audience for money. The
producers are the prostitutes of entertainment;
and Arnold Schwartzenegger is their pimp. I mean governor. No I don't.
So I ended up getting Before Sunrise. I've seen most of it before on TV;
never the beginning though. I'll just watch the beginning then take it back.
Before I was at the movie store I was at the beach. The water was cold
but I went in anyway. I saw phosphorescence for the first time when I
looked down and saw that the bubbles coming up around my legs were glowing.
Very cool.
In math today, while working with permutations, one girl said she liked
this kind of math because it's exciting "All those exclamation marks!"
She was just joking really; but still... She sacrificed a little bit of her
'intelligent' reputation in the name of humor. I owe her for that.
Andrea's in southeast Asia. She's been gone for a while now actually.
Last I heard, she's in Phnom Phen and had just returned from
...Sickamikaniko? Sihanoukaville? Some Asian place. I might go see her
when I grad. I can't stay here long. It's beginning to close in on me.
Post secondary schools seem like an escape... but they're not! They'll only
tie me down more! Yeah, I'm a little claustrophobic. Canada isn't big enough for me.
But I've got to go watch 15 minutes of that movie now.
Here's something for you to play with:
