I can't wait until 6:00 tonight...

Yeah, so I have work in 45 minutes. Blah. I keep trying to tell myself that it's money and that I'm not there for too long, but I would still rather not go. I have to study for my acoustics test that's tomorrow, but I know most of the material, I just need to review pretty much. Fun stuff.

I also decided that I really hate my Geography class. It's more like a history class first of all, and she's not even talking about the United States and Canada...she spent the entire time today talking about Mexico and Europe. If it was World Geography I would understand why she would mention it, but it's not. I walked in there the first day of classes thinking that I was going to take a course on the States, Mountain Ranges and Rivers and Lakes. But no. That is definitely not the class I am taking.

I also really hate that stupid TRAIN! It never fails to wake me up in the mornings or sometimes even in the middle of the night. We all now it's there...why do they have to keep reminding us?

Well, it's short this time...I'm done venting.

I still hate Mondays...

Yep, I do. Mondays suck. Thankfully I only have one class left and then I have to go to work...blah. Hopefully it will go by fast though. Chris showed me how to make fun slide shows on my computer last night, so I have something else to do with my time once I get more pictures of friends and such. I'm hoping to get a digital camera for my birthday, but we'll see what happens.

AND...I just got off the phone with my dad and he said that my cousin and his wife are going to have a baby! Yay, I'm going to be a second cousin! Haha. I don't know when she's due yet, but hopefully I'll get to see the baby soon after it's born.

But, that's pretty much all the news for now...yay for life! Have a good day everyone!

Greeley water really DOES smell like fish!

Work was okay today. It could have been much worse. I was kept busy all day without stopping in between to ask Tammy what I should do next, so that made the time go by a lot faster. I hate having to set up, especially with the soups...Chris knows why...haha. But, work came to an end and I got to go home and shower and then Kristine Woody came by and showed the house to people. It was too bad we couldn't tell the people she was showing it to that the house is crap and it would do them good not to move in.

But now, I'm just hanging out and doing nothing pretty much. I have to read for Women's Studies tonight, but we'll see how far I get with that because I am really tired. I'm thinking I might go to bed early tonight, but I always say that and it never happens. I've been doing pretty good this past week.

Well, that's pretty much all there is. I think it's time for dinner and then who knows what...

Strangest, STRANGEST dream last night....

So, last night was fun. There wasn't any drinking, but that's okay. I was saddened Mila couldn't come, but she was running about yesterday and just wanted to stay in Fort Collins and relax, so it's all good. She wants me and Chris to come up there some weekend, but we need to see when all 3 of us are free. I think today I'm going to go to the rec center and work out for a little bit and then come home and shower and do nothing. Good times.

But last night I had the weirdest dream! I don't know even why I had it. I'll tell you guys about it later because it's too long to put it in here.

But anyway...I think it's time to eat and go work out, so that's it for now!

Working out kicks my ass...

So today was an okay day. I went to classes, came home was unpleasantly surprised to find that Justin (my MySpace guy...ugh) had messaged me asking how I was. So, I haven't talked to him since September and he is messaging me now. Why do you ask? I think it's just some sad ass way to make himself look decent, but it just makes him look even more stupid. I asked him what the point was to that, and he hasn't repsonded so many he's still getting the "I hate you Justin, never talk to me again" vibe from me.

Other than that blah moment, Kara, Garrick, and I went to Power Abs and Kickboxing, and I must say that both kicked my ass (no pun intended). I know I'm going to hurting a great deal tomorrow. I definitely do want to do that more often though. I really need to lose more weight.

I got an e-mail from Peter saying that he couldn't afford to give me anymore hours...which a part of me doesn't understand because I would be originally working 8:30-5 instead of 8:30-3 which I'm working now...so, that confuses me a bit, because he could afford to have me work those extra 2 hours on Sunday but not the extra 3 that I wanted on Wednesday...but whatever. Part of me is also kind of relieved I don't have to work, that but I really need the extra money and even though my parents are willing to help me out, I don't want to have to rely on them. Oh well, we'll see what happens, maybe I won't need them.

But, that's all for now...I'm going to be sore tomorrow...wish me luck.

What a day...

So, today seemed more stressful than Tuesdays usually go. I went to my 3 classes as usual, but since I had to stay the entire time in my LDC class I didn't get to get the bus that I usually get in order to make it to my class in Candalaria right after. It finally came and I got to class RIGHT at 12:30. Thank goodness for Rene saving me my seat that's in the back so I can just subtley walk in and sit down without anyone noticing me. Then I had work and thankfully Debbie didn't talk to me at all today. She must sense that I hate her and is trying to make as little contact as possible, which is fine by me. I also e-mailed Peter last night asking him to give me another 3 hour shift on Wednesdays because my money situation is dismal. I don't want to work 4 days a week in a row...but with the way things are going I either have to borrow it from my parents or get another shift...and I really don't want to rely on my parents too much. So, hopefully he'll let me work those 3 hours on Wednesdays.

So, that was my stressful day. I'm so glad that work is done for the week. 4 days without being inside TK will be quite nice. Well, hopefully tomorrow will be less stressful. LOST day tomorrow as well! I am so excited to watch it with my new LOST buddy...(haha, just kidding Chris).

But, that's pretty much it for now. I hope everyone has a good day tomorrow and don't study too hard!

Oh Mondays...how I hate them

So, today wasn't a bad day...but it could have been better (i.e. no class or work). But, the worst thing that happened to me was going to deposit my check and getting the receipt and finding that I'm almost out of money. Go me! I'm getting paid next week, so hopefully that will help at least somewhat significantly. The bummer is that I'm going to get paid, and then that money is going to rent and food and utilities. My parents said they would help me out if I needed it, but hopefully I can survive until May. This is definitely the worst it has ever been. No more Target runs for things I don't need for quite awhile. I just can't wait until summer where I have a decent job and hopefully my bank account will fill up quickly.

I have work today at 3 (blah...but I REALLY need the money that goes with it). I'm excited for Wednesday because I don't have any work and Lost is on again! Chris said he might not watch it, but Kara said she would watch it with me, so I still have a Lost buddy. What fun is watching it by yourself when you can't freak out to anyone. I really want to see that episode (wow, I'm lame...haha).

But that's all the news for now. Hopefully I'll get money soon. I SO wish I wasn't getting paid once a month. Stupid TK. Have a good rest of the day!

I don't want to go to school tomorrow...(wow I sound like a 7-year-old)

Yeah, so I really don't want to go to school tomorrow. I really just want to stay in bed all day. I really hate my Women's studies class because the teacher is crazy and so are most of the students (i.e. touching herself girl). I also have work tomorrow which is another downer. But the weekend was pretty good. My mom had a jewelry party and I got some nice jewelry for free since my mom was the host. My parents also decided that now wasn't a good time to put Chloe to sleep, so we are going to wait (which I don't know what for since she isn't going to get better). But as of now she can still find her food and she still eats it, so we figure that since she can do that, she isn't ready yet. I have no objections, but I'm still pretty sure that it's going to be soon.

Work was so boring today though. It took me nearly 3 hours to get all the toppings together for pizza, and then I had to cut up broccoli which is another tedious act, and I had to put together 4 pans of it. Blah. I also had to wake up at 6:15 this morning in order to get here on time. That's one of the downers about going home on weekends...waking up so early on Sundays. I didn't get to see my brother the entire weekend, which was sad...I'm sure he's SO PISSED about The Broncos' performance this afternoon. If they had won, my brother would have gotten to go the the Superbowl with them since he's on The Stampede. But, oh well. It would have been cool to see them go to the Superbowl for a third time, but according to Kara, Plummer screwed it up for them. Stupid Plummer.

But, that's all for now. I have to get back in school mode. Have a good day tomorrow everyone!

Yeah...interesting day

So, tonight at dinner, my parents said that now they aren't sure they want to put Chloe down. I definitely wish they would just make up their minds already. They said it would be soon, but probably not as soon as we all thought it was going to be. Whatever, I'm not against letting her live.

Tomorrow will be fun though because my mom is having a jewelry party and I get to buy a new ring that is really pretty. I also get to be the model for all of it, so that will be fun. Maybe I'll even get the jewelry for free since my mom is hosting the party. Who knows though. The ring I want isn't expensive.

But that's it for now. Work on Sunday...blah. See you all then!

Thursday, January 19, 2006

Blah...

So, I think the decision about Chloe has been more or less made. We aren't doing it this weekend, but probably the weekend after next. It depends on when I'll be there because they aren't going to do it without me there. I may end up going home next weekend if we decide we are doing it then instead. I think it's just time for her to go. She had a good life and it's unfair to her to keep her alive when she's unhappy. I'll miss her a lot, but it's the right thing to do. We are going to have a small funeral type thing for her over Spring Break when the weather gets nicer since we are going to spread her ashes in our backyard.

Well, that's pretty much all that's going on with me. Sorry for the blahness. See you all Sunday.

Ish...

Today was an okay day, I guess. Last night was just the worst because I learned from my dad that we have to start deciding whether or not we have to put our dog, Chloe, to sleep. I have never cried that hard before in my life, even when my mom's friend and my grandpa died (I hope that doesn't make me a bad person). I woke up with puffy eyes this morning so I definitely applied the eye make-up. But, she's old and it's probably time to let go...but it's still hard. I don't remember not having her since we got her when I was 2, so it will be weird when she's finally gone. At least we still have Sadie and Sammi, because hopefully that will soften the blow a little bit. I hate to say it, but it's also kind of a relief because once we do finally put her down, we won't have to worry about protecting her from Sadie and cleaning up after her when she goes in the house. It's sad, but at least we got as many years as we did with her.

I just want to go home and be with her now...but I have 3 classes tomorrow, so I'll leave after Geography since my only class on Friday is cancelled (and thank God, because now I don't have to watch that girl fondle herself again...blah). And at least I'll get to spend as much time with my puppy as possible. That discussion is going to be the hardest of all I think and then having to take her to the vet to have it done. Hopefully afterwards I'll be okay.

Well, that's the update on my life...interesting, I know. I'll let everyone know about Chloe and since I know it's going to be pretty soon, you all are invited to her service (my family is awesome). Have a good day at classes tomorrow and I'll see you Sunday!

Yay for days off...

Yay for no classes today! Unfortunately, I have to go to work at 3. Blah. Oh well, it's money. I'm so ready for the weekend and to go home and see my doggies again. The only thing that sucks about going home is having to wake up at 6 in the morning so I can make it to work on time. Oh well. It's not happening often, but I just feel the need to leave this weekend.

So, today I have to eventually go to the Book Stop and get the rest of my books. Hopefully they won't be too expensive...and hopefully it will be open. I would assume it would be, but you never know. Hopefully I'll get the books I ordered online soon.

Well not much else going on. How exciting. Short this time...maybe something interesting will happen tomorrow...I doubt it though...haha.

My 100th Post...

This my 100th post! Yay! We should have a celebration or something...meh, or not. Today was a surprisingly okay day, considering I have to book it across campus to get to classes. I think I may have to end up leaving a couple of minutes early from my 11:00 class in Gunter so I can get to my Geography class at 12:30 in Candalaria...if I can't leave early maybe I can just ask Rene to save me my seat, just in case I walk in late. But, Thursdays are at least okay because I go right from one class to another and then when I get home, I just relax and do homework and not worry about having to leave on time to make it to my next class. Tuesdays are the worst because I have this schedule and work at 3. Only a few more months and then it will be summer where I'll be going to school and working again. Yes! Hopefully school won't take the entire summer, but who knows.

I just can't wait until next year when we're out of this shithole and living in hopefully a nicer house. I really just want to be done with school all together so I can just work and live and that's it. Hopefully I'll meet a guy in there somewhere, but whatever.

Well, that's it for tonight. Thanks for making us dinner tonight, Garrick...it was quite good. I hope everyone has a good rest of the night and have fun in class tomorrow!

Halfway done...

So, the first week of the semester is almost over. It's hard getting back into the swing of things, but hopefully it will all seem like normal again. Today I woke up so tired and really considered not going to my first class today...but I did, and it's a good thing because we got a worksheet that's due a week from Monday. I really wanted to nap today, but I ended up needing to get my books and then Chris and I went to King Soopers so we could get more stuff. I really just went to get Shampoo and Conditioner (or Campoo and Shonitioner as I called it earlier today...I'm really tired). Then we had lunch and ended up chatting for a little while. Now, I'm afraid if I do go to sleep, I won't be able to go to bed early enough tonight, and then start that cycle all over again. Thankfully on Friday I only have one class and it starts at 12:20, so I'll get to sleep in those days. I'm also so glad that I don't have to go to work for the rest of the week. Hopefully I can get used to doing that again, because those 2 days were pretty much hell.

I think all I'm going to do today is watch movies and just veg out since I don't really have any studying or homework to do. Of course, I say that and watch, I'm going to be on the internet all day long...again. No, I think I'm going to try and take a break from the internet today, but we'll see what happens.

Well, I think that's about it for now. Have a good rest of the day everyone!

Tired, cranky, and I still have this DAMN COUGH!

So, this morning I woke up feeling okay about the day. I got a decent enough amount of sleep, but still when I woke up, I didn't want to move. Well, Sign Language was good as usual. He didn't even give us the syllabus yet, so I don't even know of any upcoming assignments. Then I got to Language Disorders in Children and I need to have 5 hours of observation time in order to do my clinical practium. Grr. I have NO IDEA when I'm going to get the time to do that since I have other projects in that class AND projects in Women's Studies. Then I go to Geography and this teacher is seriously INSANE! She uses the excuse that she's from New York and that's why she's like the way she is...but my parents are from New York, too and they don't act like that! Then I get home and made pasta and now I'm here...tired and cranky and wishing I could just sit around and watch a movie. But, no...on top of my hectic schedule on Tuesdays and Thursdays, jumping from McKee to Gunter to Candalaria with 15 minutes in between, I have to be at work at 3 today. Thankfully I don't work on Thursdays, so I can just come home and do nothing or homework or whatever I feel like doing. Tuesdays are going to suck, I already know. And I still have this cough that came out of nowhere! I wasn't even sick when it came and I show no signs of getting sick. Blah.

But other than that and looking for a new place to live next year, things are okay. Tonight I plan on reading what I have to read for Women's Studies and then watching a movie or something. I think tonight I REALLY am going to go to bed early considering last night and the night before I said was going to, and then ended up staying up until like 1 or 2 in the morning.

Well, that's it for now. Sorry for the blah blog, hopefully things will be better tomorrow. I have to start getting ready for WORK! Blah!

I HATE SCHOOL!!!

Okay, so I don't HATE school, but I dislike it a lot. Especially this morning when I had to get up and not my usual hour. Over break, the earliest time I saw was 10:00am. And now this morning I was up at 8. Blah. AND I have work today! I hate work more than school! But oh well, I need money and without money I can't pay for anything. I'm not looking forward to getting my books, but thankfully my parents are willing to pay for them. I also forgot the Comcast bill at home (grr), so now my dad has to pay it and I need to pay him back eventually. I'm also down to 4 checks, so I need to get more at some point.

Well, I hope this day ends soon! I'm already sick of this semester! But, I'm glad that it's just the 4 of us now and that we don't have to worry about finding another roommate right away since we don't have to pay the extra rent. Hopefully this semester will be filled with less drama.

Well, it's short this time. I have to get ready to go to class...(blah).

Back to school...

Well, I'm back in Greeley anxiously awaiting the new semester...or not. I got here at around 4 and unpacked and settled in, and then Chris and I went to Kings so I could get food for the week. Oh how I hate spending money. But hopefully I'll be eating healthier and working out a bit, so I can lose more weight. I also have to go to work tomorrow (blah), but at least I'll be getting money for it.

Tonight, me, Chris, Garrick, Kara and Dave went to the Olive Garden. It was so good, but it fills you up really fast. Well, I have lunch for tomorrow from it, so it's all good.

I left home today feeling really sad because that might have been the last time I would see Chloe. After 17 years, you think that they will live forever, but of course they don't. I just hope she makes to the summer, so at least I'll be there.

Well, that's about all for now. I really enjoyed playing Harry Potter Scene It! It was a lot of fun and I still can't believe we didn't get any clips for Goblet of Fire! Oh well. Well, I think I'm going to go watch a movie and then go to bed (or at least try to). Hopefully I won't be too dead for school tomorrow. Have a good day at school tomorrow everyone!

One more day of break...

So, I spent my last day of break with Mila again. We went shopping and I got cute underwear at Victoria's Secret. Good times. Then I tried to deposit my Christmas money at Wells Fargo and it took my card, but not my PIN number. It finally gave my card back, and I had to go to another Wells Fargo, and it worked there. I think that's the last time I'm going to my usual Wells Fargo, which saddens me, but my dad said it happened to him there, too, so I'm not going to even risk it.

I'm looking forward to going back tomorrow. Peter e-mailed me back and the schedule I wanted for work worked for him, so on Sundays I'll be done at 3 instead of 5. Yay! That does make me happy. Yeah, 2 hours of less money, but I don't think it will make that much of a difference, and if I'm eating healther (and therefore less) and I don't have to pay more rent because even if we don't find another roommate, Emily still has to pay (serves her right), I won't be shelling out as much money. Especially with groceries if I'm not getting as much food as I did last semester.

I'm also going to start working out. This time I really am going to do it. My goal is at least 15 pounds by Spring Break. We'll see what happens. Well, that's it for now though. I can't wait to see you all tomorrow!

Ready to go back...sort of

Well, I think I am ready to go back to school, but a part of me just wants to be on break forever. I have this annoying cough that makes me sound like I'm sick, but I don't feel that bad. I just have some aches and then this damn cough. Blah! Hopefully it won't turn into something.

Today was okay though. I did absolutely nothing all day, and then tonight my dad and I went to dinner and then saw King Kong. It was an okay movie. Not something I would buy, or even watch again if it was on TV, but overall, it was good. Peter, my supervisor, e-mailed me like 2 days ago asking me what schedule is good for me. I asked to be done at 3 on Sundays instead of 5. Yeah, I know I'm getting of some money, but I discovered that while I was at work last semester on Sundays, once the clock hit 3, I just wanted to get the hell out of there. But, he hasn't e-mailed me back yet, so hopefully it will be okay. I'm working the same time on Mondays and Tuesdays so, that'll be good at least. I wanted to try and work afternoons, but my school schedule didn't permit it. It won't be so bad.

I really am looking forward to going back to Greeley, even though I really don't want to go back to work or school. Just getting away from home for a little while will be nice. I really am looking forward to eating healthier and going to the rec center with Chris (yay Yoga!) Maybe I'll lose more weight and then I'll be happier with my body.

Well, that's it for now. See everyone on Sunday afternoon!

Yesterday was no good...

So, yesterday was a pretty crappy day. I of course let my laundry pile up to no end for the longest time, and it took me hours and hours to finish it all. And I still have some sweaters and towels that need to be washed. On top of my chorish day, Mila calls me in tears last night telling me that her dog was throwing up blood and was getting really sick. I went over there for about 2 hours last night, and it seemed like it she was getting better. But then Mila calls me about 20 minutes ago and told me that they had to put the dog down. I feel so bad for her, and it saddens me as well because I've known that dog almost as long as I've known Mila. But I just feel so bad because it happened just all of a sudden for them because one day Klister was fine and then the next day they find themselves putting her to sleep. At least with Chloe, we know that she's going to go soon, so we get to prepare ourselves. They didn't even get to do that.

So, that was pretty much why my day sucked. If it was just laundry, it would have been fine. But I shouldn't talk about my day being crap because I'm not the one who lost my dog. I feel like I want to give her one of my dogs (Sadie or Sammi, not Chloe), but I doubt my mom would allow that and I'm not sure if Mila would appreciate that anyway.

Well, that's pretty much all for new. Maybe happier news tomorrow if I feel the need to update.

Yay for the New Year!

Yesterday was a good day. Chris and I FINALLY got to see Brokeback Mountain after trying twice. Third time's a charm I guess. It was a good movie. Some parts were slow and it could have been a half hour shorter, but oh well. Overall, it was good. We had to go to the 10:10pm showing because the earlier one was sold out, so to waste the 3 hours until the movie we went to Target, Wal-Mart, and then went to Village Inn and got shakes, and talked about how we should eat healthier and go to the rec center more often. Yeah, that's all going to start when we get back to school.

Unfortunetly, this entire break I've been going to bed at like 2 in the morning and getting up at 11 or 11:30 in the morning. So, when I get back to school it's going to be hard to go to bed earlier and wake up earlier. We'll see how tired I am on the first day of school.

I'm kind of looking forward to going back, but kind of not. I think the only thing I'm not looking forward to is work again. If I didn't have to work, it would be okay. But unfortunetly if I don't work, I don't get money, and if I don't get money, I can't pay rent or buy food.

Well, I'm going to try and make the best out of this last week of break. Is it just me or did this break go by faster than last year's? Meh, hopefully this semester will go by fast and then it will be summer, where I have work and school again! Yay! Well, that's all for now...
