Bad Knee
My stupid knee is acting up now. Dammit I have to start working out more frequently. Well summer means nicer weather and more motivation to run. Plus I ran into some 50s that were in a card under my bed....so thats where all that Christmas cash went. Now I can buy a gym pass. It shall be at garnet b/c thats nice and close. Hopefully my knee will stop cracking whenever I get up w/ a bit of conditioning. Current Mood: lazy | | Wednesday, November 22nd, 2006 | | 4:47 pm |
My Prof Knows Me
In class on Monday (my 2nd year 1/2 course) my prof is like "hey, you, aren't you also in my ANT334 class?" me "who me, uh, yeah" and she walks away mumbling hmm is that allowed. Me in my mind "yes, im in frickin 3rd year not 2nd". Today in class my prof starts talking to me "hey so hows it going", me "uh good", great I sound articulate now. Her "so what do you study, how come your in a 3rd year class". I explain how I'm actually in 3rd year taking a second year course due to my not so great 1st year GPA. She starts asking me about how I'm doing in her classes and in my program I tell her that in HMB202 (that 2nd year course) I'm not doing as well as my other classes, mostly b/c I focused too much on the readings for the test, (I got 75% which isn't a bad mark in itself but the class avg was 82 so it kinda sucked). Then I say "its ok cause I'm getting 80% in histology which is more important". She falls silent, I try to correct myself "more difficult/more relevent to my program is what I meant". She laughs and says see you Monday. I feel bad for blurting that out, oh well. I'm still wondering how she didn't notice I'm in two of her classes all this time, I always sit in the 1st or 2nd row and I have talked to her a bit in both classes. Odd. In other news, work sucked yesterday. I was working cust. service by myself and it was insanely busy. I probably screwed up a few things cause I was trying to get the line moving (I had to help this one guy for like 20 mins while everyone else had to wait for me to finish). If I made mistakes I blame my manager for putting me alone. It was so bad that customers were actually nice to me and felt bad for me. Today I get to relax and breath, except for once I don't want to rush home. My parents are away and my brothers won't clean anything. If it weren't for me the baking sheets with pieces of chicken wing and oil would still be in the sink as would the pizza boxes with cold pizza, which my brothers so kindly left out for me (they just didn't want to put it away). I didn't have time to clean the bathroom this morning and told my older brother to, I'm pretty sure he didn't. Somehow I'm the one who gets fed up with the mess first, they won't do anything until they can actually smell things rotting, which I can't let happen b/c thats disgusting. So here I am at school wasting time on the CPU. | | Wednesday, October 4th, 2006 | | 6:28 pm |
Monkeys
Ok its not really about monkeys.... but yesterday in class I sat beside prof lehman (the monkey guy) for the duration of the primate movie. Yes Saggy prof Lehman. We talked about how the discovery channel now sucks and how the chairs in the classrooms in sid smith are uncomfortable. It was awesome. He's too big (tall that is) to be sitting one of these chairs with the table in front. In other news. Uyen I have a picture you will want to see, I'll bring it on Friday. | | Saturday, September 16th, 2006 | | 3:59 pm |
Hit by a Car
Yep Im serious I got hit by a car. I was riding my bike home from work on thursday (in the dark and rain with dark clothes on but I had a light) some guy turning right stopped cause he had a red light, I saw the walk sign and kept riding cause I thought he was stopping for me, then he hits me, I keep riding. I think I was in shcok or something cause I didn't fall. Then as I'm riding I notice that my foot will not stay on the peddle, it fact my left foot was not even peddling the other foot was. So I went to the hospital, got a leg brace and crutches and will have a hell of a time getting around at school. My dad is driving me to my classes though so that was nice. I'm going back to the hospital on Thursday to have my leg examined, they believe that it is a torn ligament. | | Wednesday, September 13th, 2006 | | 11:46 pm |

Cotttage
Went to my friends cottage over the weekend. It was awsome, I was actually able to enjoy myself this time cause I didn't have school to worry about. The vets were pretty and I finally got my cartilidge pierced. I always wanted that done since I was a kid, I actually used to wear a fake cause I was afriad to have it done for real. Didn't hurt as much as I thought it would though. Going to Hilton head head once again,leaving at 4am tomorrow. I should sleep cause if there is daylight outside I won't be able to sleep in the car. Its a 16 hour drive but quite worth it, ocean here I come. | | Tuesday, July 25th, 2006 | | 3:03 pm |
Poor Dead Fishy
One of my fish died. It was brutally murdered by the others (they ate his fins till he couldn't swim anymore and was just darting around the tank randomly and smashing into glass). He didn't even have a name, who am I kidding I'm too lazy to come up with names for 22 fish, half of which I can't tell apart. So we shall call him fishy, good bye fishy. Just waiting for the times to leave my house to write my test. | | Tuesday, June 20th, 2006 | | 10:10 pm |
Near the Last Straw
A customer fucking threw a bag of fertilizer at me (which hit me in the ribs) because I didn't have a bag for him, his wife encouraged him and told him that was the right thing to do. What the hell? Its not my fault when I don't have bags, apparently its not my manager's fault either. I held back the words that were on the tip of my tongue (rot in hell shithead). The next customer saw what happened, noticed his product didn't have a tag, backed away slowly and ran to go find one. All before I even said anything, I guess he saw I was very angry. After the day was done I put in an application to the bank. I'll cross my fingers and hope for a phone call, $11 per hour and a nice chair are looking very welcoming. Oh by the way happy bday thompson! Current Mood: angry | | Sunday, June 4th, 2006 | | 10:38 pm |
How Could I Have Known?
Somwhere between studying physiology and working at Canadian Tire I lost my mind. How could I have known this would happen? Has anyone seen it? I would like it back as I need to continue studying. Well anyways if you find it just drop it off on my doorstep, I'll be waiting. Well I will be training to work in customer service as of Wednesday, should be better than cash, more interesting anyway and better experience. I got my raise early for being a good little employee (this sickens me at the same time I am happy). Hopefully I can find something else after working CS for a while, I need to make more money. Haven't really spent time with Mike, let alone anyone else, in about a week, stupid physiology, stupid studing, and stupid work. Even though I hate having to take a summer course, I'm really enjoying physio so I guess its worth it. | | Thursday, June 1st, 2006 | | 10:25 pm |
So I'm Wasting Time
Sitting at my compter and typing this livejournal enrty while downloading the rest of my X-men shows on DVD. I really should be studying for the physio test next thursday, but its been a long day and I just got home at 9:30. Surfing the net I realized that I need to take a first aid-CPR course to get into med school, no suprise I just didn't realize it was required. Found a few courses that supposedly used to be free but now cost $120 - 150. I'm looking at taking one in August, maybe it sounds crazy but I'm actually excited about this. Had to blow off a few friends for what must be the 50th time by now so that I will have some study time tomorrow, I hate doing that but my schedule collides with fun time and it never works out quite right. | | Sunday, May 28th, 2006 | | 9:53 pm |
Yay my X-men season 2 episode 1 finally downloaded. Now I can burn the first four episodes of the second season. We should watch these together one day, this show is great. Feeling a little out of the loop, been having a little trouble balancing my head on my neck (NOT shoulders) lately. I barely even have time for the gym, hello basement and stupid 10 lb weights which reminds me I need to buy heavier weights. Ach, I also need a new job, little whiny kids are trying to make problems where there need not be any. I'm too old for this crap. | | Saturday, May 13th, 2006 | | 12:15 am |
Sorry for being a no show
Sorry for not coming tonight guys, I forgot that it was JPs bday and that I was supposed to go to dinner with Mike, his mom, and JPs girlfriend. For some reason I thought that we were going to dinner tomorrow. For some reason I don't have anybody's phone number on my cell anymore *smacks around little brother who put his own friends in Kristina's phone book because he doesn't have his own cell and took the liberty of borrowing hers for a while until she noticed*. No wonder I couldn't find my damn phone. Younger sibs can be a pain in the ass. Today kinda sucked I finally have a day off work and I had to play taxi cab driver for my parents, my brother, and Mike. Due to Mike's indecisiveness we drove to Canadian tire, home depot, sears, and another canadain tire spending about three hours deciding which weed eater he should buy :-P of course we picked up a few other things along the way. He also helped me put together my closet organizer and secure it to the wall which took up the rest of the evening after dinner so he made up for those 3 hours of me driving him around. Lol after that I made him book a G2 test, hopefully soon he can drive himself around to all these stores all day. | | Thursday, May 11th, 2006 | | 12:16 am |
Why must parent's be so cruel
My dad called me stupid today. Told me that if I can't even get a 3.0 in my program then there is no point in wasting my time and his money. Why did he say this? Only because I chose to take a course in the summer and refused to work in his factory this time because it would require missing classes. Why did I take a course? To learn physiology properly and allow my schedule to work out for next year so that I'm not missing courses. Am I angry? no I know that on some level he his right, I sort of understand his reasoning but I made a decision, not only that I had the money to pay him and he refused. Talk about mixed messages. I'm simply confused and a little hurt that he actually called me stupid and said I was wasting his F***ing money. I don't need his stupid money, shit i'll prob even have enough to pay my whole tuition in the fall. Do I hate him? No I forgive him he can just be explosive when something bugs him. ok I'm better now. | | Friday, April 28th, 2006 | | 10:07 pm |
Forest Clean-up Update
Ok so the date for cleaning the forest has changed it will now be on May 9th and 10th, possibly the 11th and 12th also depending on how much we get done and whether people want to come on more days. Once again any help would be greatly appreciated. If it is any incentive I have provided vinyl gloves as opposed to nasty powdered latex and I'm working on getting poking sticks. | | Thursday, April 27th, 2006 | | 11:01 pm |
Forest Clean Up
Mike and I are going to be cleaning the forest beside St E up again. If anyone wants to help out it would be greatly appreciated. We're going to make pointy sticks this time out of peices of wood and nails. It should be happening once our exams are done so probably starting on May 5 and going on for a few days. We're going tomorrow to sort out the details I'll post again if this changes. | | Wednesday, April 26th, 2006 | | 3:40 pm |
Whoo my marks don't suck as much this year
Yay! I got my first 80% in a full year course. Now I have 1.5 credits worth of 3.7 GPA (unfortunatly these were all in electives). This is much needed and will help my suckie last year GPA. Hopefully I can pull it off again in environement. Damn chemistry I hate you and you're stupid reactions I can never remember all those. Maybe the 30% on that first test won't kill me after all thanks to a good lab mark now "all" I have to do is get a 60 on the exam. On another note my brother heard me singing when I was in the shower (from the hallway side of the bathroom door). He said I should learn to play guitar to go along w/ it. Now thats something to think about. Ok off to conquer the books, need more 80s, it feels good. | | Thursday, April 20th, 2006 | | 1:48 pm |
Summer Course
Yes it has finally happened I've gone crazy and decided to fill my summer with homework. Why? I'm hoping that by the time September roles around I won't be too lazy to actually do the work when I am supposed to, well that and I would like a "lighter"/possible course load next year. The course? that would be physiology and yet another bonus the asshole prof doesn't teach it in the summer. The only thing is that my dad refused to pay for "extra" courses. So as of now if I don't spend any of my money I have enough to pay for the course. I wanted to buy a few things such as summer clothes but that can wait a bit class is more important. | | Friday, April 14th, 2006 | | 12:12 am |

Free Smiles
No Mr. strange man you do not get a smile, and do not ask me for one. What is it with people. I was walking down the street minding my own business, thinking about the test I had just written and pondering my answers. This guy (an old one around 40 yrs old) turns to me and says "hey pretty girl why don't you smile", as he walks by. Not the first time this has happened, mostly it happens at work though. Well maybe I don't always feel like smiling as I walk down the street alone. Too bad strange man, screw you. | | Saturday, April 8th, 2006 | | 11:45 pm |
Tagged by a few people
Each player of this game starts with the "6 weird habits/things about yourself" and people who get tagged need to write a blog of their 6 weird habits/things, as well as state this rule clearly. In the end, you need to choose 6 people to be tagged and list their names. 1. I shake my leg to fall asleep or when very relaxed 2. I bite the inside of my lip, often making myself bleed, when I'm nervous. I bite the inside so people don't see it. 3. I sleep with stuffed animals and my room is fairly girly, in many ways I still act like a kid 4. I don't know how to dress myself, I often shop with my mom cause she finds stuff thats not so ugly 5. I tend to interupt people when I feel very strongly about an issue and their view greatly differs from mine 6. I can be self-conscious and shy and have a pretty hard time making friends I tag: crazicat48, indecisive_pie, thuyme, canadian_vixen, and Iwasidetracked if they have not already been tagged |
