Hey guys, I'm just checking in...I guess with myself, since I'm probably the only one that still reads this lol. But i'm just sitting here watching football playoffs, not really doing anything special. Tomorrow I have a job interview, I hope I get it, it's not really a place I want to work since they sell handbags, but a job is a job, and I need the money lol. I have so much I need to pay off, here is a list:
Line of Credit- 8000$
Mastercard - 1500$
Visa - 900$
OSAP - 2500$
Total - too fucking much :(. I think by the time I'm done school, I should have my Visa, MC, and most of the OSAP payed off, so when I start at the Safari again in April, I can use that money only for my line of credit and hopefully get that paid off after the summer. I will be so happy to be out of debt! I want to hopefully buy another lens for my camera, a fish eye lens, and hopefully an external flash but I doubt i'd buy both in one year unless I keep working all through the year. So we'll see where i'm at in 6 months haha. Anyways, I'm going to watch the finish of the Giants/Eagles game, and then watch the game I actually want to watch, Pitt/SD

Hello, I haven't posted in here in which feels like forever. I wish it was because my life was busy and important. But it's not. I am still working at the good old Safari, and I originally intended to get a job after that until the new year, but that didn't work out as planned lol. I hadn't had a vacation since the previous December, so one day off turned into two and so on. Now we're into two months. This semister I tried something different, I took two online courses and worked until November and that worked out better for me. I'm clueless as to what I want to do with my life. There are many things I would like to do, but I don't think I have enough drive right now to work towards anything. I've lost a lot of determination to get things done and have become lazy. It's kinda dissapointing, but I guess not dissapointing enough because I haven't really done anything to change it.
Enough about that because it is indeed very boring and depressing.
Yesterday I went to my friends barn where she has her horses and got to spend hours with two wonderful horses. I've always had a giant weakness for horses as I'm sure most little girls do, i've just never grown out of it. I wish I could have my own horse, but my allergies definitely come into play. They weren't as bad yesterday because I was careful not to rub my eyes/scratch my nose but it would be dificult to live like that everyday if I had horses.
This tuesday i'm going out with friends for lunch, and on thursday I'm having a couple friends over on thursday. We're going to play wii games, and Super Nintendo Games because we are really just that cool.
I'm currently reading Breaking Dawn from the Twilight series. And I HATE the twilight series. But I thought it wouldn't be fair for me to talk about how much I hat eit without giving it a fair shake. So far, I'm not liking what I read, but I thought I would read them all just in case. I have more books to read (about 20 or so) that i'm really itching to read, but not until i'm finished this 700 pages boring ass book.
I've managed to get 90% of my christmas shopping done, and almost all of them wrapped! I really love this time of year, it brings out the best in everyone and the colours are beautiful.
To wrap this up, I'll leave you with a picture of my cat, who gets especially excited around christmas, almost as much as me!

So classes are done YAY! I finally get to stay home in a cig smoke free zone! I have to study hardcore though because Sunday is a family christmas party so I won't be able to study that whole day and I have two exams on Wednesday then one on Saturday (NIGHT AT 7 WHO MAKES THIS SCHEDULE THEY MUST HAVE NO LIFE AND/OR COMPASSION FOR OTHER HUMAN BEINGS)But it's been snowing on/off the whole day and I love it. It's so Christmasy. So I did manage to get Spice Girl tickets to the Feb 4th show! Me, Sara, Kayla, Rachel and Jess are going and I already called Scary Spice so I can wear adidas pants and feel comfortable lol. I'm surprisingly doing the best i've ever done in school and I have no idea how i'm pulling it off because I don't feel like i've done any extra work? lol. Next semister i'm taking a Music and Pop Culture class and i'm pretty sure we get to listen to Elvis in class so...and yes that's the reason i'm taking it! lol, oh and my other classes are going to spank me! I have to take science electives, so I have to find science classes I haven't taken and make sure they fall under my degree program and they are so lame. Example, i'm taking Membrane Biochemistry next semister, wow sounds like a riot am i right? zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. Okay, anyways I gotta study, make din din and watch the y&r lol.

So, I really haven't written in here forever, I wish I could say it's because i'm busy but then of course i'd be lying. I really only use LJ to read ONTD and get my celebrity gossip for the day. Anyways, this weekend is thanksgiving (YES!) and it's a big weekend for me
1. See Tegan and Sara in London on Saturday.
2. Go to work for the last two days of the season.
3. Start listening to Christmas music.
Yes, that's right, I love Christmas music and i'm not ashamed to admit it.
I'm going to be jumping around a lot in this entry so please just deal with it. Yesterday me and Sara watched Spice World at her house and her and her boyfriend live together and are sort of having problems right now so it was kinda awkward for me being in the same room with them while she's begging him to spend time with her and he'd rather play online poker. Gay. Speaking of Sara, we're going indoor minigolfing tomorrow, so look for the pictures on facebook cause you know you will love them. And also speaking of the Spice Girls, you all know by now that they're doing a tour and I put my name in for the Toronto show, they haven't handed out the promo codes so you can actually buy the tickets yet but i'm keeping the faith that i'm going to get them. I've been really selective about who i'm going to ask since you can only buy up to 6 tickets, I don't want to turn people down because then I just feel bad. So far i'm asked Sara, Rachel, Jess and Kayla (who I work with at the Safari, and we both go to Guelph, and we both seem to enjoy the same things.) so I already called Sporty spice, and bullied Kayla into being posh, so i'm going to have to consult with the others to see who they're going to be. I kinda don't want to ask anyone else because spice girls are 5 girls, not 6. Speaking of Kayla (there are a lot of speaking ofs in this entry okay, just deal.) we keep trying to hang out and it never ends up happening, but we have found a common ground...HALLOWEENTOWN! That's right, those super cheesy disney made for tv movies is going to bring us together lol. I bought two of the dvds off ebay and we're going to chill and watch them because we are obviously cool like that.
Schools going okay, I have one DE course, ecology, and it's not really that bad. I was warned by the girl at the bookstore that there was a lot of reading, but she also has no idea of my fast reading abilities and i'm ahead in reading in that class. I'm taking a Horse Management Science course that's not really that bad. It's certainly interesting to see all the muscles and ligaments of the horse, and my prof actually looks at the horse reproductive system and tries to incorporate it with endangered species that we don't know that much about. She said she works with elephants, which got me thinking that maybe next year i'm going to ask Trish at the Safari if I could switch to working with the elephants. How cool would that be? I'd clean up their massive shit for that.
Anyways, i'm going to go to bed now, and this is a novel so by the time you finish reading it, it will be daylight out.
P.S. I hope Britney gets her life together. I haven't given up hope on her yet lol. and her song Been Awhile is fucking hot. check it out.

Maybe I should start writing down my picks for reality shows since it seems I can't get them wrong. This year for American Idol I picked Jordin and Blake. I don't think they're both going to be in the finale, but I've had a pretty good track record of both Canadian Idol, American Idol and So You Think You Can Dance picking people who never get voted off.
Uhm, nothings been going on in my life lately thats why I don't really write here anymore, my pictures all go up on facebook because it's easier for me to upload them. I am currently jobless but I just submitted my resume to the Safari again, so I should get a job by next week lol.
My mom got a new car, it's a dark green 2000 Volkswagon Cabriolet, and she loves it. I love it too. I got 500$ from my income tax this year, and I haven't bought anything with it, mainly because I can't really afford to, between saving for University and having to buy a new computer (definately going with a Dell, I was going to go for a Mac but then realized how many things the university uses aren't set up for a Mac, and really, who uses a computer that's for art/graphics/music during school which is about papers etc?)
I just have to say, it's only May 16th and I already have a tan and I love it. Skin cancer here I come. I have to start reading my Harry Potter books because the new book comes out soon and the movie and I want to have it all fresh in my mind again.
I'm not sure how many people know yet, but in April (13&14) I went to Toronto because Katharine was going to be at Muchmusic and perform at the Canadian Idol auditions the next day, so me and Megan went because no one else wanted to go with me, and I couldn't find anyone that would drive down there so we took the bus and stayed in a hotel that Rachel found for me on the internet (thanks Rach, it was actually a really nice place for how cheap it was!) Then we walked to MuchMusic and it took like 20 minutes from our hotel tops. There we got to be in studio so everytime she was interviewed I was behind her head lol. Then the next day we saw her perform at the auditions and I got to meet her afterwards! I talked to her for a short while and she was really nice to everyone, and her boyfriend Nick was there and I talked to him for about 2 seconds while he lurked in the background like he always does. Anyways, I got videos from it so i'll put them on youtube maybe. Anyways, that's about it, I have to watch Young and the Restless and pick out what I'm going to make for supper since I think it'll just be me and Jenny.
Peace up.
A-town Down.

So reading week is next week! FINALLY. that is all i can say, me and rachel made a library date to get started on some papers we have to do. I have my first midterm on wednesday, so me and medival history have a valentines date :) i hope it gets me some delicious chocolate. so this sunday i am so STOKED! i get to see colin james and the little big band in concert with the fam, and i know seeing a concert with the family doesn't seem that ~*kewl*~* but first of all we used to listen to colin james and the little big bands first cd at the cottage all the time, so his music has a lot of sentimental value with our family, and its something we all like to listen to, plus he is dream okay.
ALSO BUY MCPHEES ALBUM IT IS OFF THE CHAIN

Hey you guuuuuuuuys, i haven't written in here forever, and that's partly because i'm busy, mainly because i'm watching tv on my computer all the time. Schools going good right now, my laptop isn't, the chords wires are starting to go i think so i'm probably going to pick a new one up on the weekend because it buzzes at me then turns off. that's always what you want to hear! Nothings really going on in my life, on the weekend i usually just watch football (GO COLTS), sit around and do nothing because it's the exact opposite of my week. Plus i play with Silla a lot, we have a big box in my dining room that she loves to sit in and play. I know you guys are really excited about hearing that. lol omg i'm watching veronica mars (you should watch it too) and this girl came in and she was like HOLY TURN THE AC UP IF YOU WANT TO SEE MY NIPPLES JUST ASK. i was loling hard. I see Rachel every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday and we pretend like we're doing school work when we just sit and giggle over things because we're cool like that. Oh yesterday on campus there was this guy handing out hershey bars and saying "Have a happy hershey day", rachel basically ran into him too lolol Okay and i'm pretty sure i'm in love with the office and Jim, it's such a hilarious show all the characters are so good and well cast, and i can't believe they never crack up laughing because i'd be laughing SO HARD. okay anyways I need to go do a webct prelab now
p.s. Katharine's cd comes out on the 30th, so you better buy it or i'll fight you because i've heard it and it's really. really. good. It's streaming at vh1 right now

So one of the things i got this christmas was a 250 GB external harddrive which i wanted so then i could take my pictures/music off of the home computer instead of having all that stuff on there and using up a lot of space. so i moved all my music over and since then have downloaded greys season 1, family guy season 1, rome season 1, the office season 1, an elvis movie and am now trying to convert another elvis movie to put on my ipod. i'm in the process of downloading other elvis movies i don't have, and other seasons of greys, family guy etc and let me tell you it is awesome. i don't even have to spend any money on going out and buying these dvds because now i have them? i love life.
oh school starts on the 8th and i'm ready for it, i have thursday off during the week, i'd rather friday but the stupid way science courses are they're mainly on monday, wednesday, friday so that sucks balls, anyways i have to go convert family guy season 1 so i can play it on my ipod
p.s. katharine mcphees single was put up on aol today (its called over it), and her cd comes out on the 30th so please be a good friend and buy it

I'm just going to discuss what i got my parents for christmas here because well..uhm megan and jenny might read this and then they'll know and i'll be like pooh :(
anyways, i got my mom this heating/massaging seat that she can take with her in the car or to work because she always complains that she's cold or her back hurts so thats pretty much a winning combination right there. then me and megan bought my dad a new golfbag cart thing (170 dollars later...lol) and jenny got him an umbrella holder for it, he didn't really say he wanted it but when we were in sportcheck earlier last month he saw one very similar to the one we bought him and he was like man i want one of these and then said something about an umbrella holder so i hope he's really happy about it. i dunno i wish i was rich only for the reason that i love buying people stuff? i love looking at their face when you buy them something they've wanted or you think they'll like.
OKAY today at the grocery store i saw terra dittenhoffer, lol I KNOW i haven't seen her in forever but we talked for awhile and then when we went to shoppers ME AND MY MOM SAW MRS.WILSON! THE KINDERGARTEN TEACHER!!!! i was so happy to see her! and she had something that megan wrote about how teachers are important in her day planner i was like lol omg that is so cute. so silla really loves christmas, i mean like really loves it. she gets excited, crawls over the presents 'helps' us wrap plays in the stuff when we unwrap gifts she's just adorable and right now she just jumped on one of my dads presents and was looking crazy, my mom bought my dad a new dvd player that plays HD stuff, and a cable for it and it was over 300 dollars, i was like lol what for a dvd player that is insane, acuse you can go to walmart and buy one for like 25 bucks.anywho, theres like what...4 days until christmas and i'm stoked!
oh p.s. this last part is about katharine mcphee and if you guys are sick of hearing about her from me then just skip this part lol, her cd comes out january 30th, her new songs you can preview on her myspace which you can get to from mine, she released a 2 song single which the songs might not even be on her album and she did that because her cd kept getting pushed back so her fans would have something to listen to, they're called dangerous and i lost you. and then a few days ago (tuesday) she posted a thank you and a christmas song on her website (katharinemcphee.com) so if you guys love kat as much as i do you can check it out or what not.
i'm going to go make some cookies and smack my cat for picking at the furniture
