Alright, well i aint so good at this whole keeping track of when to update stuff.... I'll give ya'll a little run down of what life has been like for the last month and then you can decide if you would have found the time to update your site.*as you prolly all know...i broke up with Tom... we had a year of a pretty damn good relationship and things were starting to take a turn for the bad so i figured it was time to end it before we starting hating each other, so we are still pretty good friends despite the awkwardness at times
*i got a promotion and a raise at work (yay me)
*work is even more stressfull then before.... in fact sometimes i wonder if i should start pulling out my hair now or later
*i spent 3 days in march break in Montreal Quebec... the booze list is as follows..... first night : split a bottle of wine with 3 friends, went to a bar (peel pub) and drank at least 12 beers...... second night: split a bottle of ameretto with another friend, then went to peel pub again and had about 6-8 sangeria's (some say i had only 6, others swear it was 8, i personally dont remember)..... third night: split about half a bottle of gin (gross) with Daniela, then went to the casino and tried a bloody mary (also not so good), then went back to the hotel and was given (happy birthday) half a bottle of southern comfort from a very nice person (Thank you Mike) which i drank with orange juice (yummy). Then i had a few shots of vodka and watched Josh (who drank about a litre of vodka and orange juice) puke his guts out for about 6 hours. All in all, Montreal was great and id love to go back...now!!!
*I came home to the hassels of everyday life (aka: work) and i am seriously considering finding a new job.
The major question of the day is whether to stay at home or go away for school. If i stay at home then i get my own car and my own room...if i go away i will prolly drink myself silly...your call...lemme know... (mcoleman003@home.com) 'till next time.... keep your fingers out of the icing love ya'll Michelle

When life is ready to eat you whole, what do you do??I cant sleep, i cant eat, i cant even relax. My head is really pounding and its mental. Sometimes i wish i was still a child so i wouldnt have to deal with all the problems of life, then i remeber that i had to deal with them even as a child...everyone does. So that brings me back to now. I told someone i know that everything that happens in the now, is directly because of someting that happend in the past. Its true. Every single day i realize its true. Anyways, i see the depressing undertone this is beginning to take so i have to depart now. This page was created to be fun and uplifting...sorry guys

So its been like an eon since i;ve update here so i am more then sure that none of you have been running the computer to see my boring little page which i still do promise to fix up in the near future...i swear!!! I've been working full time and schooling part time...dont' underestimate the amount of time that takes up...i am a busy girl...i fact i should be doing some homework now, but neglect can be such a lovely thing. Tom and I have been so busy lately that we didnt even get around to celebrating valentines day!!! He brought be a card and some chocolates when i was at the gym and i basically threw his card in his face while i was on my way to one of my classes. I usually wear skirts to work now... ( i have reinvented my toy-boyish self) and that means that sometimes i end up wearing skirts to school too cause i cant be bothered to change in the 15 minutes i get to sit down for. All this work is good for me though... i havent complained about being bored in a long time cause i never have time to be bored. Earlier tonight (which is guess is really last night by this time) i had a great converstation with an old friend. Sometimes it amazes me the way that i have changed in the last year or so, but i am a firm believer that good friendships last through things like that....Once a good friend always a good friend somewhere in your heart (usually anyways). One of the courses i am taking is writers craft.... i like to write (surprise surprise) so it is nice to have an outlet for that. One day i will write a book....either a collection of short stories and poems or an autobiography. Which brings me to another point... i have an undying love for history.... i cant get enough of it. There is something about the past that just makes me feel weak in the knees and happy....even when its depressing. I cant get enough of reading autobiographies...and they are even more inticing if they are about ordinary people.... i even like books about people;s lives that dont actually exisit... i just have a great afinity for the past. My ears perk up when my world issues teacher talks about the past and why certian counties will never embrace each other. I think that my love for the past might be a way for me to live vicarioulsy through people that had really intersting lives...not that mine hasnt been interesting, but there is always more right???...am i rambling???? yes i am... that means its time to go this is very theraputic....if i thought that absolutely nobody actually read this i would write alot more till we meet again... i never say goodbye, just so long or tootaloo (as Niska's crazy old lady friend says)posted at 2:36:30 AM

Have i ever told you how amazing my boyfriend really is??? He is like the greatest thing since sliced bread... he's better then chocolate chip cookies and even much better then cool whip. Tom is an amazing guy and all this babbling is sprouted out of the fact that mr.genuinley wonderfull (aka Tom) threw me a surprise party yesterday... can you believe how sweet he is????? I promise promise promise to change the layout and add something more interesting then my everyday ramblings in the VERY near future...On Wednesday i had my last exam and it was our 1 year aniversary. So i finished my exam at 10:45, then i went for coffee with 2 other exam survivers from my school and then i went to pick up Tom.... we went to McD's and then we went back to his house and acted like fools for a while then it was offt work for both of us. At work i discovered that i am employee of the quarter (like employee of the month only its 3 months) and therefore i get a $75.00 gift cerfiticate!....Wednesday was a good day. I hope i have many more good days like that in the near future. Maybe Tommorrow i will talk about my party but i am too tired now so night all.

Well some asshole has messed up my whole computer cause he's a fucking jerk off, but thats ok. We are now back in business. Today was my friend Jeanette;s little girls first birthday...yes today Alison is 1! Little babies like her make me want to have one....a long time from now! She is so cute. It amazes me that she has such little hands a feet and such tiny little legs and arms and such BIG lungs!!!! Alright, after spending the day with such a little trooper, i am pooped and i need a nap laterposted at 6:27:02 PM

Ahhhh to be 19... Mostly its like being 18 to be honest, only now i dont have to beg someone else to buy me alcohol. My birthday was pretty much uneventful, but it is expected to be as such seeing as everyone is studying like mad for those exams. Tom did come to my school on Tuesday bearing flowers and gifts and my friend Jeanette took me out for coffee so it wasnt a complete loss. Tommorrow i have an english exam and on tuesday i have finite and wednesday i have economics, then i am finished with high school!!...what a relief! Right now i am reading a book called "the autobiography of Foudinni M. Cat." If you are a cat lover you will enjoy this book's humour...If you arent a cat lover, read "Before you Sleep" (which i mentioned before) for a weird turn on life. BTW...when i went out for coffee with Jeanette we met some people in the cafe who wanted some help studying for their english exam...specifcially Hamlet which i happen to know quite well....needless to say i felt very smart when i could answer all their questions about Hamlet and hopefully gave them some extra insight into the meaning of the play. What i discovered myself is that i am a geek....oh wellposted at 2:21:12 PM

So... In 2 days i will be 19. What that means is that i can buy booze and smokes neither of which i use enough to care about but oh well. Next weekend my parents are going away for one night. My boyfriend cant come over cause of exams, my friends cant come over because of exams.... basically everything sucks because of exams.... even my birthday. On Friday night Tom (thats my boyfriend for all you slow folks out there) and i rented a movie called "Run Lola Run". I thought my hard working boyfriend had finally lost his mind when he suggested we get that movie because a)the name is retarded and b)well... the name is retarded, but it was a really great movie. It was a pulp fiction-y movie with natural born killers undertones and well...its german and germans are freaks so its pretty freaky....but really REALLY good. Last night as a bid farewell to my childhood, me and my friend Daniela made playdough and bubbles. I made a bowl, spoon, fork, knife and chopsticks out of the playdough and looked for things with holes in it to blow bubbles out of.... i discovered that growing up is far off for me....no matter my age Anyways...my sister from the black lagoon has just invaded the room and i feel clastraphobic with her standing near me so i will be off nowposted at 11:51:50 AM

Well kids...it seems as though this week will never end!Tommorrow we pick up my little kitty (poor kitty). I applied to night school this week to avoid waking up at 7:30 for a few months and avoid going back to that horrible place they call school. I guess I'll be working days now and schooling nights...its still only 4 days a week and 3 hours a night so i still feel better then putting in 8 hour days for 5 days a week. I keep trying to motivate myself to study for exams...i know i should, but i cant get into it...i have the worst study habits.
Anywas, keeping it short today i will be off now. remember that my birthday is only 6 days away....thats leaves few shopping days till my birthday so hurry up!!!

This morning i brought my little kitty into the vet to get fixed and de-clawed....(poor kitty). School is approaching the last few days of this semester and i am psyched because it will all be over in a few weeks. After i am done with school i promise i will do something with the layout on this page...or at least the colours and maybe add some stuff because as much as i know you all love following my life, i'm sure there might be more interesting things. Any ideas feel free to email me at mcoleman003@home.com or click here . Currently i am working on a poetry unit for my english class. If you know me well you know already that i love poetry and from one poetry lover to another, you must check out some stuff by Seamus Heaney. By the way...this weekend the coundown began... that is the countdown to my 19th birthday which is now in 8 days and counting. Right now i am reading a really good book called "Before you Sleep" by Linn Ullman who is a Norweigen writer. This book is excellent...very quirky and entertaining... mainly a chick book...although there is plenty sex to keep the male mind occupied. I cant tell you how excited i am about Angela's Ashes. I have been waiting to see this movie for so long and if its the only thing i get for my birthday i will be happy! The book was amazing and if you havent read it yet you are missing out. If you have read it, then read the sequal "'Tis" without delay. Another note about "Girl, Interupted" before i leave you to your own devices... Angelina Jolie (who i think is an amazing actress) really was the saving grace of this movie... i mean Winonna Rider was pretty decent but Angelina Jolie was amazing. So i took it upon myself to read up about her and i am still amazed...but what a freak!!!!! I'd love to look like her but i'd never want to be her!posted at 11:45:48 AM

Well, I've been trying to get around to doing this since thursday but life wont permit it. Anyways, on Friday night i went to see "Girl, Interupted" and i have to say as an avid reader, that is the first time i have seen a movie that is better then the book. I read...I read alot and i usualy find that all movie versions of books suck with a capital "S", this time it was actually the book that sucked and the movie was alright. Now dont get me wrong...i was definatly not saying the movie kicked ass....it got mixed ratings from me and my two friends Shaindy and Daniela....Shaindy said it was great and me and Daniela said it was ok... overall i'd say its a fun movie that i wouldn't really jump out of my skin to see again. Last night i stayed at my job at WInners till 11pm to help get stock organized for inventory...some people at work seem to think i'm a work-a-holic, but those who know me know that i just like the money more then anything else. After work i went to pick up my hard working boyfriend from his friends house b/c they were working on a project... poor guy, project on a saturday night by the way....i know that most people reading this site prolly got here from my boyfriends site,but on the off chance that you actually made it here on your own .... check out his site Rokkit. Personally, i have been very busy too...working my fingers to the bone at work and then comming home and finishing up projects (2 down 1 to go) and studying for the dreaded exams. I have also been trying to figure out a way to avoid day school next semester and just go to night school which would make me SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO happy because i am SICK SICK SICK of school, and i guess that happens after 13 years of the same mind-numbing bullshit. September its off to university, so i want to work as much as i can to make as much money as possible before i have to be a starving student. For the time being, I am starting to get back to my roots...yes the televsion.... The other day after i watched the simpsons, i stayed tuned instead of the usual "shut the damn TV off before our brains melt"ritual, and i happened to see the first airing of a-not-so-bad show called Malcom in the middle. Malcom kinda reminds me of what i was like as a kid cause well... i was weird and his little brother is a freak kinda like my little sister. His older brother that has been sent off to boot-camp-school reminds me of me when i get caught doing something i'm not supposed to be doing which doesnt happen much anymore because i am far to long in the tooth to be mucking about and causing trouble now. Anyways...the family is barking at me to join them for breakfast so i must be off now, but till then remember.....ehhhhhh...i forgot.posted at 10:15:46 AM

Welcome all to my humble page which would not be here if it wasnt for my wonderful boyfriend Tom. Eventually there will be more stuff here but for now lets keep it simple. This will be a page from the mind of a rambling peach (the peach is me). About me....well.... I am going to be 19 in 12 days. I am finishing up my OAC;s this year and preparing for University next year. I live at home with my mom, step-dad, 2 cats, a dog and my sister from the black lagoon. My general usage for this page is to relieve tension and say everything going thru my head that i wish to share. I have a huge HUGE ISP presentation tommorrow morning so for now i dont feel like saying much.... Tommorrow's agenda :discuss current televison show and their value to life....possibly also discuss my poetry unit in english class...till then this is Michelle Coleman signing off for this evening.posted at 11:08:09 AM
