hear me, i want sugar in my tea.

Yeah, so abby just rushed my hungover self out so that we could get breakfast at the dining halls. When we got there she had no meals left on her plan, so we came over to the computer labs so that she can get some James Taylor tickets, and I'm just tagging along. I don't even go to school here and I'm not supposed to be using this computer. So we got here, and tickets don't go on sale until tomorrow, so I'm leaving now. Goodbye.

I just got back from 17 hours of driving.... I'm a little oblivious. I should be sleeping. But... I just found out that one of my favorite people in the world (possibly my favorite above all) has cancer, much worse than any of us ever expected, and now she's in a hospital bed and she has about 3 months to live. How is this possible? What do you do? I mean, she can't die, ya know? She's my weezie. And... I don't know. I wish I could stop crying.

I've missed this place. Haven't had anywhere else good to vent publically. Now I guess I will bore you with transition periods. Transition periods are periods in your life between your one style/attitude into another. During this time you will do what you, personally, consider self improvements. You may be a little 'ugly' during this time, but this is only because you don't fit into your element yet. It's okay to make new friends during this period. In fact, it's a good idea to. But it's not a good idea to start dating somebody during this time because this time is a bit awkward for you, and the way you are during this time is not how you are going to end up. So it's best to remain single. This is, though, a part of your life, and you should definitely live during it. Its okay to party and have fun and do fun things, and never pass up a chance to go to a concert or to meet new people or do new things. But do keep in mind that you haven't yet reached your element, and you shouldn't look for permanancy until you have. Thank you.

Okay peoples, here I come to bore you to death with what Michele considers my self-obsession. I don't care though! I'm one of those people that takes everything in as if I were experiencing it for the first time. And Michele doesn't like me anymore, I don't think, so who cares? But anyway, I just wanted to talk about how happy I happen to be right now. I think that this is the first time in my life that I genuinely like myself. Like, okay, I know I'm fat. I've known that since I was about 9 years old. But I'm a lot less fat now than I ever was in even 8th grade, I'm with very supportive people, I'm falling in love I think, and life is just great. Except for that little money problem, but whatever. I don't feel like talking about it anymore. I don't even know where I was gonna go with this.

Hi guys. This hasn't been updated in 2 weeks! What is going on??? Anyway, I read over the past few blogs, and I see a lot of negative shit there, and I think that's cool, ya know? If you want to spew your shit, this is the perfect place to do so. But I think it's kinda rude to be obviously rude to the person who set this up for us. I mean, have a little respect, ya know? He put it here for us and we're using it against him. 'If you have nothing nice to say, then don't say anything at all.' Or put them in topics, ya know? It has more impact there, anyway, and is way less disrespectful because it's not permanent. Anyway, I love you guys. I looooooooove you guys. *mwamwamwamwamwa* Okay, I'm done now. Tomorrow night we're going trick or treating all drunk. Sounds fun, doesn't it? *extrahiddensmooch* tata :)

THE vending machine gave me my reeces pieces today, but the vending guy moved them from where it wouldnt give them to me all last week and the week before that.
MY shirt has a hole in it.
THE vending machine wouldnt take this nice lady's dollar.
MY shirt has really large cuffs and sometimes i get them in things (i spilled some coffee the other day, its been cleaned since, but still)
THE vending machine's friend doesnt like to dispense coke's to me properly. and just me
MY shirt is blue.

september 27th. (oh wait it says that at the bottom...)
*restart*

september 27th. (no really, the date is part of the entry, bear with me. ill start again.)
*ahem*
september 27th. it was snowing this morning. wasnt sticking, no no no, not sticking, up on the moutains maybe, theres been snow there, but it was definatly snowing this morning, it wasnt sleet, it wasnt rain, it wasnt hail, you couldnt see the flakes anywhere, but they were blowing like snow.
look, it was snow.
sep freaking tember 27th.
found a new apartment! yeah, i dont wanna move, but it has a fireplace. its also in the ghetto, so i think we might pass on it. and there arent that many other places in town. that greenbriar place on tudor looked nice. i dont remember how expensive it was, cheaper than the 'hillside chalet' (more like ghetto chalet) see here i am cracking on that hillside chalet place... its nice and all, but the neighborhood scares me a bit (im weak, leave me alone) tom as a roomate? ask me again in 4 seconds, and ask me again louder.
look, the writers at the university of washington that wrote the pine documentation had it right:

No, nothing's simple.

hmm.. ok now for the diary entry or something...

Dear Diary?
I need to holepunch lots of the NASA stuff to put it away, but I can do that at school tomorrow, when I send my immunization records to GSU. Southern Polytechnic called me and told me they had a check for me. Very exciting! I don't know why they have a check, but I'm not going to turn down money. I'll pick that up Tuesday. I need to go make copies of these books, at least what I'm going to keep of them...

I'll be in the middle school starting tomorrow... Am I nervous? A little. I know I won't be teaching, so it's not like I feel unprepared. BUT... I do know I'll be the center of attention for the first time in a long time, without wanting to be (just think, what about that kid who came in the middle of the semester... everyone stares for the first day or two). I was in a middle school classroom last fall, and I was blown away by how much they knew... those were smart kids. But that was a special school, not your average public school, so I don't know what to expect now. Maybe they'll be as smart, maybe they'll be bouncing off the walls. Whatever happens I know it'll be pretty exciting.

I gotta fold laundry. At least I got all my clothes washed so I won't have to worry about it this week. Of course, I'll be wearing a nice shirt and tie and slacks tomorrow, and probably all week, while I'm in the middle school, so it's not like I'll be wearing my usual stuff. Who knows, maybe I can wear my nicer shirts without the tie after Monday. I only have 2 pairs of slacks for this. No, wait... three. So I'll wear two of them twice. It's wet and rainy outside now, so tomorrow it'll be muddy and wet, so I'll need to roll up my pants. Maybe I'll take the dog out before I get dressed (YEAH! RUN AROUND NAKED!). I just gotta get up early enough.

Today I slept in till 8:30, and got to work at 8:42. Not bad. HAHA. And then it took me all day to do what usually takes me about 2 hours. This is because I was short an employee and the one employee I had had never worked with me on Sunday mornings before. He's used to just checking out customers and then running movies all the time, since he usually works the rush times. My Sundays are busy from the time I get there until I leave. Not to mention the fact that I had to make massive amounts of room for Tuesday's new releases (Final Destination - we got 113 copies of it, and Where The Heart Is - we got 73 copies of it, as well as 30 Flintstones). I pulled 200 PVTs today, where I usually pull only about 50 on Sundays (we pull another 130 or so on Monday).

Why was I short one employee? Stephanie had a surprise baby shower, and thus all the female workers were out having fun. She was happy though... you can tell she was enjoying herself. She's so cute... she always wants me to tickle her feet. She's due in about 3 weeks. She looks like she swallowed a watermelon. She She She. Speaking of Shes, I keep falling more into Liz. Bleh... I need to get her to go out with me sometime to a movie or something. I'll see her maybe on Tuesday. Or Thursday, or something. I wanna invite Steph there too, cuz Steph and Liz have become good friends since they started working with me. It'll feel less like a date then just an outing. That's all I want, is to have some fun with Liz... *sigh* someday....

I think I'll need a new car battery soon. I dunno. I haven't had problems today. Maybe it was just that I was low on gas.

Acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 meters per second per second. Thus, in the first second (first second?), an item falls 4.9 meters, or almost 15 feet. Thus, if you jumped (fell) off a one-story building, you'd land in less than one second. Have you ever jumped off a building? It seems like it takes a lot longer than that. And ever watch something fall off a table? It seems to fall a lot slower than it really is. Pretty neat, huh?

I'm thirsty.

I'm kinda horny too.

There's a saying old, says that love is blind, still we're often told seek and ye shall find...Looking everywhere, haven't found her yet, she's the big affair I can not forget...Only woman I ever think of with regret...

By the way, the North Georgia State Fair was a bust... they didn't have one of the rides they did last year (the ride I really wanted to be there, too). I should have stuck around for the beauty pageant though; I saw a really cute girl heading towards the dressing area when I was there. Oh well.. I'm going to go to the Georgia State Fair (which is in Macon, GA) which happens in a couple weeks. Oct. 16-22. I can go on a Tuesday. They have some nifty exhibits, as well as what seems to be a decent midway.

I guess that's all for tonight. I'm sure I'll have much more to say tomorrow, after my experience in the middle school.

Seeya,

I'm still sick. Not as bad I think, as before. But still annoyingly bad. I think that I'm developing some form of allergy to my dog, or something was put in the air, when I mowed the back yard. Plus I got the like, 4 or 6 bug bites from doing it. Lovely.

I picked up Madonna's Music today. Haven't actually heard the LP cd yet, but the single with the mixes wasn't too bad (I of course, heard the song on the radio a few times). Hopefully the whole cd will be good, and not a pile of shit like Ray Of Light was (Ray of Light was a good song... and that's about where it ended).

I did laundry today! Woohoo!

I'm listening to a Mozart record. Very nice.

I had a ham and cheese sandwich for lunch, and Wendy's for dinner. For breakfast? I had the usual, which is a package of chocolate donuts (the little ones) and a Dr. Pepper. Today, the donuts tasted like shit. I think I'll be eating something else for breakfast from now on. I just have to find something that's easy to eat in the car, since I try to finish breakfast before I get to school.

Speaking of going to school, I'll be in the classroom observing next week. I'm excited. Though it'll be a middle school that week, since we are certified to teach grades 7 -12. I won't be teaching, just observing, and probably helping out a little bit. I'll be at a school nearby, but I've never been to it, and I didn't even get here until the end of 8th grade, so I wasn't really in Georgia middle schools very long. I remember I hated my middle school experience, especially in California. But I can't wait to see what it's like. I forgot most of it, can you imagine that? I guess I'm repressing some bad memories. But it's the bad memories I remember the most. The bad teachers, especially. Though I do remember a couple good events. But I won't go into detail; it makes no sense to bore you with that. Maybe I will sometime soon, if I'm reminded of it.

I still haven't gone through my stack of NASA material. Maybe tomorrow, after school. I get out of class at 11:30, then I'm going to try to sell a bunch of cds to the Disc Exchange used cd store. I'm going to the North Georgia State Fair, which begins at 4pm, so I have to leave here about 3:30. I'll bring my camcorder and shoot some footage too, if not tomorrow, then on Tuesday (Thursday, and next Tuesday, are both pay-one-price for unlimited rides). I don't want to go just to film, since I know I'll wanna get on the rides too. I do know that I'll have to shoot my footage in the daylight, because fair lighting isn't that good. But rides do get busy later at night, so I wanna ride as many as possible at first, then shoot footage, then go back and ride at night... bleh, who knows? haha...

Anyway, I guess that's enough for tonight. This is kinda becoming my diary, except I'm not admitting everything to you guys. Heh, that'd be a bit dangerous, I think. And do you REALLY wanna know that much about me? Maybe you do....Anyway..

Seeya soon,

Dear Sophie, you understand so much, don't you? When I look in your eyes..

I see the wisdom of the world in your eyes. I see the sadness of a thousand goodbyes, when I look in your eyes.

And it is no surprise, to see the softness of the moon in your eyes, gentle sparkle of the stars in the skies, when I look in your eyes.

In your eyes, I see the deepness of the sea, I see the deepness of the love, the love I feel you feel for me.

Autumn comes, summer dies, I see the passing of the years in your eyes, and when we part there'll be no tears, no goodbyes.

I'll just look into your eyes.

Dear Sophie, those eyes, so wide, so warm, so real.. isn't it a pity, you're a seal?
