March 28, 1998 - April 19, 1998
(March 28) Back in Seattle
I am finally BACK!! *does the Dance of Joy* Spring Break was, um, interesting.
In retrospect, it was extremely uneventful and unproductive, but that's the
whole point of being out of school! I saw my friends. I went out with them
about twice each DAY. I baked. A lot. I slept. A lot. I missed Days
of Our Lives because I slept too much. Bah.
I went to my friend's community college last Friday. It is definitely really
really REALLY different from UW. *chuckles* I'm not sure if it was worth
getting up at 7:30 am, though.
I snuck online last Sunday. It was pretty great. At that time, I was only
offline for five days. Five days! That's tough! *laughs* But I couldn't stay
too long because I had to drive back home. BUT! Now it's this weekend and I'm
back in Seattle because spring quarter begins the 30th.
I just checked my grades too. Awwwwwww, man!! *laughs* Not so good. Not
good at all. *shrugs* I also rearranged my schedule. Hopefully things will
look up. *smiles*
Um, I guess that's all for now. See you guys online. *hugs* Woo Hoo!
Okay, I'm back...after talking to johnny. I promised him I would mail him
some cookies for helping me with my uploading of the pictures...guess what.
He told me it would take to get to him?! Preposterous!
Two weeks!! Argh! And I just mailed him last Thursday! No fair! I told
him he shouldn't eat the cookies, but he said he would anyways. Awwwwwww..*hehe*
The postal system sucks!!!!!!!
(March 30) Back to school
First day of Spring quarter! I'm taking, English 111, Pyschology 200, and
Astromony 150. Cool stuffs. Psychology is going to be so boring! I fell
asleep just in the introduction! But I like my English teacher, she's much
better than the one I had last quarter and my Astronomy class is definitely
interesting. *smiles*
I had a scare last night! I was fiddling around with my tongue pierce and
the top ball got unscrewed and fell out!! Geez Louise! I grabbed my tongue
and tried to call for Michelle, who was sleeping. *laughs* She couldn't
understand me and was still VERY sleepy, so I decided not to bug her about it.
Besides, I don't think either of us wanted her to touch my tongue and stuff.
*ROTFL* Anyways, it took a while, but I screwed it back in. *whew*
I found out that UW now has its own Subway! Wahoo! I can use my food card for
it, too. *bg* But I have to walk all across campus to get there. Bah.
I'm going to watch the NCAA game tonight and then I'm going to trek for
sub sandwiches!! *LOL* See ya! *smiles*
(March 31)
Second day of the new quarter. I only had one class today! Woo Hoo! But I had
a whole mess of errands to attend to, so I stayed on campus for a couple hours.
But I had Subway for lunch. Yum! *laughs* I scanned some new pictures
and put them
here. The plan for my pictures page is that I'll be adding and taking away
from it now and then.
I'm going to see Titanic. Again. Number Three, here. I'm going because I'm
taking Michelle and Bennetts; THEY haven't seen it yet.
(April 1) Random stuff
Funny things I've seen this past week:
- I had lecture in
Kane Hall, upstairs...when I was
going down stairs, I saw a pigeon walking around inside. *LOL* This stupid
bird was really deep inside this hall too. I wonder if it was able to get out
or if it's nesting on top of a vending machine, or something.
- I was waiting for my take-out order of Mexican food. I was watching this
man eat and he had this really long strand of cheese hanging from his mouth.
He broke it with his fork and it swung up and hit him in the face. *hehe*
- Watching people trip.
- Seeing squirrels inside garbage cans.
- Watching Titanic again and seeing this woman taking pictures during
the movie. She then gets caught and is escorted out. But doesn't she realize
that pictures are on the Internet and plus, taking pictures of a movie...they
won't be able to turn out! *duh!*
Annoying things:
- People who don't clean up headers when they send me forwards.
- Breaking a nail.
- When people don't learn from their mistakes.
- The postal service. *winks @ johnny*
- Having jokes go sour.
- Feeling icky and not knowing why and not being able to talk to anyone else
about it.
- Feeling icky and having to put up with classes and just wanting to go
home to sleep. For a long time.
- Being annoyed by feeling icky.
- Not talking a lot because you're feeling annoyed because you're feeling
icky.
Thoughts:
- I'm beginning to dislike school now. I'm *squirming* whenever I'm
in class. Can't I just drop out and come back in a few years?
- When people say one thing. And say it a lot. But then something happens
and changes everything, even though the person swears that would never happen.
I just don't get that. Why say something, swear by it, and then take it away?
- Depending on the kindness of strangers. It's a good thing. You might be
surprised at who becomes your friend.
Okay, I guess that's enough. I had to rant about some things as well as share
some stuff. And I'll suppose I'll still put up with school. *chuckles* But I
can tell you one thing, I'm looking forward to going home for Easter Sunday.
My friend Anne Marie's mom makes the best dinner! Yum!
I haven't decided if I'm going to keep these entries in a separate folder...I
think I'm okay with deleting them every weekend. And I also need a better
title for this page. I've pretty much given up my handle, "Miss Clairey Beary,"
but it's still mine and I say you can't use it! *LOL* ;-)
I'm feeling "out of it" so I'm just gonna goooooooooooo now. Ta!
(April 3) A whole lotsa stuff
Quick thing before I go to bed..it's 2:30am!! *LOL*
Hope I didn't offend any Chatalyst-philes, but this is the truth! Or maybe I'm
just nutty cuz it's so late/early. But I doubt it! It's a big meanie!!
But it doesn't really matter, does it? Cygnus chat is the best!! Haw.
I have much to say when I get back from classes today, so this isn't a complete
update!! Okay, sleep now....*hugs* ZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzz....
Back! Only for a second, though. Look at this cute doggie
I found!! Gotta go to psych!
Okay, I'm back from classes for the day. I'm feeling restless, too! I dunno
why but I wouldn't mind seeing Titanic yet again. *shrugs* I'm SO strange!!
*laughs* Um, oh yeah! I've finally finished my stories page. You may be bored when you get
there, I warned ya!
(April 5) New Mail Among Some Other Things
I had some new mail the other day. *hmmm* I wonder who it was from?
*hehe* From the one and only *Belle* sis. Hooray! It was about time, too!
Mail from Washington to California (and vice versa) should take about two or
three days. But this took four! Bah!! Well, it's here now, and there were
enclosures...enclosures which will be scanned and posted within this
coming week. *evil grinnie*
I went out with a few friends last night. We ate, saw Primary Colors,
and some other stuff. The movie was good overall, but it should have been
ten minutes shorter, I think. I also had my first smoke. It was a clove
cigarette because one of my friends bought them. I was honestly bored with it.
I wonder how people can smoke and smoke because I just don't get it. Don't
think I'll be doing this again, eh? Definitely.
Only one more week and I get to go . YES! Only for Easter,
so I'll be back the following Monday. Bah!
I just told a friend what I did over the weekend and now he says he's
"disappointed" in me. I dunno. I guess I can understand? But then again, I
told him how it went and how I won't do it again. But he's still "disappointed."
Cuz we were the last two, ya see...now he's the last one. Well, then fine.
He doesn't give into peer pressure. Not saying that I did. But all the more
power to him. Don't smoke. Okay? I don't tell people what they can or cannot
do, and I'd like the same respect. No guilt trips, alright?
Oh, well. I'm disenchanted at losing an hour today, so I'm just gonna go okay?
I mean, it's 9, but it's really 10pm...*hmmmmmmm*
(April 6) A Perfect Weekend
So you found your way in......I'm gonna redo the face of my page, so things
may looked messed up, okay?
*hugs all around* Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend, because I did. :-D
I finally got my letter from my bestest online friend. (Side note: Make that
letters from two of my bestest online friends. I got Mr.Tinkertrain's
"surprise" letter today!!! Hooray!) Larry and I were able
to talk on the phone twice a day. (It was really weird because our phone calls
are always so scarce. I truly treasure the time we are able to share with each
other. Awwwwwww..*hehe*) I had a full Saturday night (see entry below).
And, *gasp*, I actually did my homework. WAY! *LOL*
Even though this past weekend was great, I was also feeling down...and that
ran into today; I didn't go to class at all. I don't know. I don't know why
I'm like this. I actually enjoy school now, but I'm not motivated enough to
go some days...*shrugs*
*chortles* So, well, maybe my weekend was a bit flawed, wouldn't you say? But
it was still a good one and a definite one to remember.
Quick sidebar: Do you ever watch cartoons? Especially the ones you watched
when you were a kid. Ever really listen to the music? It's amazing. Because,
many of these cartoons didn't have speaking characters, all the "words" and
actions were experienced through music. Take time out today to appreciate a
cartoon, okay? [:^)
I also added another
story to my page. *LOL* It's one of my favorites. And! Click
here to
see what I'd look like if I was an animal.
(April 7) Guess Who?
*hehe* I think you know who that is. And I'll leave it at that. Haw. *wink*
And let's thank her for being a good sport about my posting her picture for
all to see! *hugs her*
*ahem* That is, johnny has cookies. They finally arrived!! Wahoo!!
They took just under two weeks. And he says they're still good. *hehe* Oh,
johnny, you're too sweet. *tehe* Thank you again for all the help you've given
me and for being there to make me smile. *big hugs & kotc* So, ah, johnny...
*whispers*..we're even now, right? *LOL* Just teasing! :-D
I'm feeling good. Yeah, yeah. *hehe* I finished my work that I missed
yesterday, I have this "mystery" picture scanned and posted...*tehe* johnny
has my cookies. And people are actually joining my webring. WEEEEEEEE! But
a little note on my ring: I know most of the ring codes are crap. And I'm
sorry! Nah!! *LMAO* Feel free to adjust them however you like, they are
serving the purpose of linking everyone, and if that works, then it's okay.
(April 9) Internet Boys
Yesterday I met up with a pair Brits. They were Michelle's chat friends from
Yahoo. They are staying at a YMCA somewhere in downtown Seattle. They called
her while she was gone, so I answered. Since the phone was broked, I just told
them to find their way to campus, where we'd meet up with them. I went online
and told Michelle and she came back and got ready. A couple hours later, the
phone rang again. They were at some boat shop. A boat shop? Like, where!
*LOL* They were at the boat shop right outside our window!! *LMAO* Michelle
kept talking and had Dan wave his arms. I was like, "Let's go MEET them, okay?"
*hehe*
We went out there to meet them, Dan and Tom. We rode downtown and showed them
around, sort of. We didn't really know what to do with them, actually. We
went to where they were staying. Now I thought MY room was small, theirs is
even smaller!! Haw. Ate at Red Robin. And then we went to see The Newton
Boys. I didn't really want to see it, but it was an okay movie. So then
we walked them back to the YMCA, took a few pictures, and left.
They were really nice and polite and were amazed at how cheap food was and how
people greet you whenever you enter a store. *hehe* Once I finish this roll
of film, I'll have them scanned and posted, okay? But, alas, I am not in any
of the pictures since *I* was the one taking the pictures. Ho hum.
Michelle just left for California. She'll be gone ten days. I think Dan is
going to call me today because I told him I'd find "connections" for him when
he reaches Cali. He's doing some nation-wide travel thingie here. And I feel
bad cuz they're gonna be here until Sunday, and out of all the weekends, I am
going home this weekend. If they call me tonight, I may do something with them.
At least give them the phone number(s) I have, you know?
See pictures of
Dan. *drools* What an accent!! *hehe* And, I got a big kick when he
chose to call me "Claire." *tehe*
(April 10) A Quick Update, Hello & G'bye, and Bits
of Hurt
I added another
name to my page. *LOL*
Just wanted to say HI, to you Jenn, cuz Allan said that you go to my page
everyday because I make updates nearly everyday. You are COOL! *hehe*
Will I be seeing you this weekend? Hope so because the last time we both were
in town I didn't see ya. I forget why, though.
And, also! I'd like to welcome back Immi Grant. She's been gone for
quite some time, and just tonight, er, this early morning, she came back to
us! Welcome back, dear sis. *hugs*
Dan didn't call me yesterday. I don't know. I feel bad for being such a shoddy
tour guide the other day. I have permission to give him a number for when he
reaches Los Angeles, California. You can probably guess whose number it is.
Anyways, so I think today I will miss Astronomy (we're only watching a film) and
taking the bus down to the YMCA. Hopefully, I can find his room again. Stupid
me, I didn't even take note of his room number! ARGH! So I'll give him the
number, have another g'bye, and a last taste of his accent. *hehe*
It's finally Friday. I've been waiting for this day since I started the new
quarter. Seems things are going down-hill for me, for some reason. It's hard
to describe, but it's like I'm in constant pain all the time. All sorts of pain
and hurt...physical, emotional, psychological, you name it; I'm probably
feeling them from all sides...I think I'm going to go and have it checked out. *shrugs* I realized I haven't felt
"myself" now for a long time....Or I can be depressed...it happens...
Sometimes going back into the past isn't such a good idea for it brings up
old feelings and memories...
*sighs, gets up and looks outside her window*
Anyways..*claps her hands briefly*..the weekend home will be something to
rejuvenate me. If not, we're going to da professionals!! *LOL* Just teasing
....
Oh my..and I haven't even started my homework yet...Sheesh. Is there ever enough
time in the day? Haw. Hmmmmm..well, I guess that's enough for now. I'll be
back on Sunday and if I'm up to it (most likely) then there'll be another update.
*hugs to all* Enjoy this weekend, I hope I do.....**GONE**
*sneaks back in real quick* BTW, the picture is no one other than *Belle* sis!!
*hehe* And, she's seven in that picture. Awww...*runs off*
(April 12) Someone loves me...twice
Some absolutely wonderful person submitted my site to win these two lovely awards
over the weekend. Who is this mystery person? I'd honestly like to know so
that I can give him/her the most sincerest thank you and I can possibly muster.
So, you out there with the generous heart, please come forward!! :-D
(April 13) Going to school
Are ya proud? I actually went to school today. All of my classes. All five of
those long, awful hours! Bah!! It was so long! I canNOT sleep in English
class. And I was actually awake for my boring planets lecture, but I was
falling asleep during the section. I was also napping in psychology as well. I
think the prof saw too. *hehe* Oh well, the main point is, I went to class.
After sleeping..um...like two hours. *LOL*
And I'm going to continue going to school. Everyday. You really only get one
chance at an education. And I can't waste it. Everyone should go to school, too.
Okay? Well, now I'll get off my soapbox, alright? ;-)
Let's see. Michelle is still gone. I don't know what day she is coming back.
I wish I knew so I would have our room cleaned up by then. *LOL* I've become
a slob!!
Oh wait, let me tell you about my weekend! Everyone knows that I was looking
ever so forward to this past weekend. Easter Dinner! FOOOOOOOD! But, lessee..
Friday: I had a weird night with my friends. We went to a local diner-
type place..called Sharis. We sat in the back and just people starting coming
in. People we knew. So it was like a little reunion. It was nice. Then we
went to someone's house and the boys there were weilding swords and knives.
So I left. Haw. Saturday: I literally spent the day in bed. I think
I ate once that day but I stayed in bed and read. Read really slowly. I only
got through 70-something pages. We had company staying for the weekend and I
didn't even see them. Haw. Sunday: I actually left the bed and went out.
But I didn't know all the stores closed for Easter. Bah! I met up with some
old friends and found out that both (they are sisters) just came back from..
ta da! A tongue piercing! *LOL* Talk, talk, talk and then I go to the Easter
dinner. It was worth it! *hehe* And then it came time to leave..so there you
go.
Okay, so back to being a slob. I am. Now. Haw. ;-)
(April 14) Quick stuff
Before I head off for bed, I updated my friends page. Also in the works is a re-doing of my
me
page, love
page, and links
page. Thank you for your patience. Hopefully, it would have been worth it!
*LOL* Bon soir!
Update, Part Deux!!!
Wow, today was a narrow miss. My one and only class today and I nearly skipped
it! *LOL* But I didn't, and thank goodness for that. We did group work and
stuff like that is so hard to make up. I went back to my room and studied. Yay!
I'm watching DAYS right now. Pretty exciting. I only get to see it twice a
week nowadays, more if I skip and not oversleep. *hehe* I'm going to take
Chunky with me to the mall today so he can buy his biking gloves. Fu-un. Haw.
And..I'm thinking of making my OWN award. One that I can give to whomever I want!
Coo, huh? *hehe*
(April 15) Finally, Some Peace of Mind...
Anyone who knows anything about me probably knows I haven't been myself lately.
Do you know why? That's because I'm a big fat idiot, that's why. Bah! Why
do I let things go as they are? Sheesh. I went to the doctor today; it was
long overdue, I can tell you that. Long, sad story short, I should have
come in sooner. Yes, I know that now. But I'm getting some meds and they'll
soon be working for me. So Good. Haw. Finally, though.....
Okay, well, some happy news...*hmmm* Well, I napped in 3 of my 5 hours of
class today. Woo Hoo! *hehe* Two of those hours were set in dark rooms! Ha!
I'm so lucky! We had a film in planets. *zzzz* And then went to the planetarium
for section. *snore* I napped in psych, but the lights were on. *shrugs*
Oh well.
I'm beginning to clean up my room. Michelle is coming back sooner than I
thought. This weekend!! I kinda took to throwing my things on her side of the
room. *hehe* Don't tell her though. ;-) j/k She's gonna have so much
work to make up though. I do not want to be her! Ouch!
(April 16) Film Thursday
I really enjoy Thursdays, you know? I only have one..count it..ONE class these
days and it's set at a very comfy 12:30! Weeeeee! And what makes it even better
is that my one and only class shows films on Thursdays. *hehe* David
Attenborough is my hero!! *LOL* We watch those "Trials of Life" films because
this is my animal pyschology class. And those films are tres tres interesant!!
I come home and get in a few hours of study time, though I do get easily
sidetracked. Hey, how else am I doing this? *tehe*
Anyways, I'm "hangin with Mr. Cooper" and then I'm hitting the books. The
parentals are coming to see my sis and me tonight, so I'm gonna come on late, okay?
I get fooooooooood! *LOL*
(April 17) An Easy Day
Okay, I figured, since I was good all this past week, to treat myself to a half
day today. *hehe* Oh man, I'm awful! Well, that's what you get for sleeping
at 3am. (*sings* It's 3am in the morning...) The meds I'm taking cause me
to be extra sleepy too. So there! (:-P) *tehe* But I'm glad I did miss
planets today because I saw an extra good episode of
Days of Our Lives. Haw. It was definitely worth missing class for!! I
went to psychology like a good girl and took notes like an even better one.
Allan went home to be with Anne Marie, so I went over to Bennetts'. We had a
scanning party. Weeee! So I scanned a whole messa pictures for my page. I
still need to organize them all. And I still need to redo my other pages. But
I have to study this weekend because I'm way behind. *shrugs* We'll see
where my priorities are, I suppose. *nudge*
Yes, even more pictures for you to see. *hehe*
New News for Today: (April 19) Welcome Home
Michelle got in yesterday at 1pm. I was still sleeping. *LOL* I pretty much
spent my day studying and tried to go out at night. But that didn't happen
very well cuz she was tired and I was getting tired. The movies that we could
have seen
