My life at the moment is the most boring thing in history.... I spent the entire weekend working on my animation.... Saturday was a waste of time because I thought I could do a claymation part that would look cool, but once I made it and looked at it I realized it looks like crap... SO I scrapped that and did a gagillion drawings today.... so far I have 20 seconds of my animation done out of 4 minutes.... argh. It takes way too long to make these things.
AND I'm completely out of time... no time to hang out with friends. No time to call friends... Alllll I can do for the rest of the semester is work on schoolwork and I'm ARGHing to death! I haven't even gone to the gym for weeks and I miss it! ARRGHGHGHGHGH! And on top of that, I sorta miss having a significant other of some sort, but it doesn't matter cause I don't have time for that either! ANYWAY... time to work on my Character Bio for my arghy script.... |

| Flashback to 8th grade, anyone? |
[Feb. 4th, 2006|10:32 pm] |
So here I am, a senior in college, thinking that I'm way past all of the lame, asshole guys that were around in 8th grade. You know, the guys who say mean things just to be asses because they think they're so funny.... the guys that completely ruin your self esteem for years to come.
I can never claim that I've ever had high self-esteem... I've lived a life of constantly being told that I'm fat, ugly, pale, deep-voiced, etc.... After freshman year of high school people matured somewhat and I didn't really hear any of that crap....
Fast forward to now.... there's this ass in a few of my classes this semester who just makes me flashback to middle school. Except he might even be worse.... What's with calling me wide-load on Thursday, then on Friday telling me I need to eat because it's unhealthy to skip meals... What's the point of telling me that I have a big forehead, or stating that I'm the ugliest thing you've yet seen through a camera lens?
The guy's like 24 or 25 or something.... did he just not mature past 13? And the thing is, whether or not I believe what he's saying doesn't really matter because it's the fact that he's saying it at all that's bugging me to death... I just don't understand the point, nor do I understand the reason for people like that to exist. |

| From Justin to Kelly... uhhhh |
[Jan. 27th, 2006|08:28 pm] |
|
OK, years ago when I found out that someone was stupid enough to propose the idea that they make a movie about Justin and Kelly, then someone actually went as far as to spend time writing it... and someone actually put funds behind making it... and holy crap, an enormous bunch of morons agreed to act in it, etc. , I thought that was all pretty dang ridiculous.... Years later I'm flipping channels and to my surprise the movie is on the abc family channel (see by this time I'd forgotten that the movie even existed).... so I decide I'll watch the first few minutes of it before I move on just to see what it's about... HOLY COW! I did not know it was a MUSICAL! Could they have added any more aspects of complete retardedness? So in the first ten minutes there's a big song and dance number on the beach at spring break (for which they all applaud themselves at the end) and then Justin's lame white friend RAPS to him about how to get women........ holy blubber it was HORRIBLE! I might have nightmares tonight.... Thank God for the remote... hehe. yikes |

I'm not really that fond of updating on here anymore as nothing exciting is happening in my life, but I wanted to let everyone know that my little baby Wembly passed away on Thursday morning... something that I am not going to get over any time soon. I don't like to talk about it much because it makes me cry...... |

| Yay for Costa Rica!!! |
[Jan. 4th, 2006|09:40 pm] |
We left on Christmas morning and arrived in San Jose, Costa Rica in the early afternoon. We just stayed around the hotel and went swimming in the pool. The next morning we left early for Manuel Antonio, a 3 hour drive from San Jose. There's nothing like driving on horribly paved or unpaved roads, or driving across bridges that look like they're about to crumble beneath you!
Our "hotel" was not exactly very nice and we didn't have air conditioning or anything, but the location of it was absolutely gorgeous... There were monkeys, sloths, birds, and iguanas hanging out in the trees all around us.
On the 28th we woke up early so we could go to the National Park, and we went out for breakfast at a restaurant called "Anaconda".... It was really exciting because we experienced an earthquake!!! I thought that was so awesome... How often do you travel to a foreign country like Costa Rica and happen to have an earthquake while you're there?
We spent most of the day at the National Park and I took a gazillion photos.... then we went to the beach within the park and it was so amazing... It reminded me of Jurassic Park, minus the t-rex We were attacked by giant waves and my sister and I had all these huge fish jumping around us, which led a pelican our way to dive into the water about 2 feet away!
Of course on the beach outside of the National Park there were people selling things to tourists.... WELLLL I came across the most BEAUTIFUL handmade dragon box I've ever seen in my life! I saw the man who made it making other things, but I bought it from the most hilarious guy named Johan who couldn't speak English except to quote the price... He was a little odd because I was speaking Spanish to him, but when he answered he did it in gestures and noises rather than words.... But he was HILARIOUS... and box is SO GORGEOUS! It has a huge dragon head on the top, a cobra on the front, bulbs and ferns around it, 2 large amethyst crystals as "handles", moonstones for eyes, and a large green stone in the very front.... I'll probably post of a picture of it someday...
ANYWAY.... I went to San Jose again on Friday and we swam and had a really fun night for New Year's Eve... we partied hardy and visited a coffee plantation. That was awesome because the driver that took us there could only say a few sentences in English and so we told stories to each other in Spanish and talked about the area and about the Columbian drug cartel... haha. It was great... and I really improved my Spanish over the course of that week. I had completely fluent coversations with the locals and I loooooved it!
Anyway, I took 950+ photos so I have to sort through them which will take a LONG time... But I loved Costa Rica so much that I've already begun researching the steps I need to take in order to move there after graduation.
Definitely the best vacation of my life... |

I never ever post on here or anywhere else anymore, so no one knows what's up! JUST to let everyone know, I'm still alive in NC.... Classes started 6 weeks ago now.... I'm sick of school, as usual, but I'm making some fun movies and stuff this semester. But I'm taking 18 credits and 3 of my classes are writing intensive which sucks, cause I have far too many papers to write.... I also spend HOURS outside of class working on my little movie projects.........
I have a photography gallery up at Port City Java in Charlotte which is pretty cool... I've sold a few and gotten a few requests for special photos and whatnot, and the gallery will be up until the end of Sept. I made myself a new website at http://tigeress66.150m.com/pinkcowcreations.html .... I redid all the artwork pages and added a photography section if anyone's interested in seeing that :)
Of course I'm not dating anyone (there's not actually that big of a selection in these parts), and yeah... school is going well. It's too hot here and I want it to rain more than anything. I spend most of my time at school and at the gym... BORING life I have right now... Although I know a lot more people here this year, so at least that's fun... caramba! |

| School has begun... |
[Aug. 18th, 2005|06:52 pm] |
School started on Monday (already) and I'm sick of being in school.
Can anyone just hook me up with a really rich guy so I can just do what I want for the rest of my life? |

| Wembly had surgery... |
[Jun. 1st, 2005|07:28 pm] |
Wembly had surgery yesterday to remove 2 tumors... She's doing well. She looks a lot skinnier without those things, and she's half shaved. It's kinda cute, but sad at the same time because she has staples in her. But she acts the same, so I don't believe she's in any pain, and she's happy and playful and still licks everyone.
Just thought I'd update in case anyone was concerned :) |

| Karma bit me in the ass.... |
[May. 17th, 2005|08:07 pm] |
Haha, I said it to many people before that I felt that my turn down of Francis was going to karma-ize me, and sadly it did. A little bit oddly too.... But anyway, Mike is seeing someone now who he's known for quite a few years, so kick me out the door... hehe. Considering that I probably won't see him this summer anyway, it's not that big of a deal. But it's still annoying. What's a bit more annoying is that now he calls me all the time to tell me how much he misses me and appreciates everything that I do for him... "whenever I feel bad I know I can call you and you'll make me feel better"... His dog died last weekend so I went to Lexington to visit him to cheer him up. I met his mom who already knew who I was, but he told her I was his new best friend when he introduced me to her. Not that I mind. I enjoy the relationship we have, but geez louise.... it's annoying. Fart fart fart... fart fart.... fart fart.... Haha, but I had a funny dream last night that I kissed him and the police came to the door and arrested me for it. What the heck is wrong with my subconcious mind?
ANYWAY... blah blah blah. I'm going to be in Seattle tomorrow at 8:30 pm, until Saturday, but Saturday I have a wedding to attend... Anyway, I wanna see my bitches and hos. CAROLINE, call me at 704-996-2394 cause I wasn't sure if you had my number or not.... but I don't have your cell number.... Jess and Lou I shall call manana and fun and fun and fun! |

| Evil People... |
[Apr. 21st, 2005|09:13 pm] |
I talked to Joe today... I miss him SO much! It's weird for me to describe it this way, but sometimes I get sort of a craving to see certain people.... Like one day I'll just think "I REALLY wish Lawranne were here!" or whatever and get all sad that I won't see them for a while... Well this week I've been longing to see Joe sooooooooooo badly.... I miss hanging out with him like none else...
So anyway, when I got off the phone with him I started thinking about where I was a year ago... Depressingly I was with Brendan, which isn't a good thing... but then I started thinking about Joe and Mr. Likeable (Mike) and how both of them have these stupid ex girlfriends that they can't get rid of (and in Joe's case I'm not talking about myself) which made me think "Wow, I'm really happy that I don't talk to Brendan anymore and haven't talked to him since he sent me that random e-mail last summer to ask about the cats".... well, when I got online today to check my mail a little while ago I once again got a random e-mail from Brendan about the cats which is weird for multiple reasons... 1st, I was thinking about that so that's just an odd coincedence... 2nd, I blocked his e-mail address so I don't know how he still sent me an e-mail... and 3rd it was him that said "I don't ever want to have any sort of contact with you ever again" and he sends me these stupid random e-mails... and here I was, so proud of the fact that I don't have contact with him.
ANYWAY... I'm all lonely and turdly out here in Greensboro. All my freakin' friends out here are busy tonight and that's just irritating.... grrrrrrrrrr |

Last week apparently 3 guys liked me.... umm... why? Anyway, I felt kind of special and kind of annoyed at the same time because I only liked 1 of them and all of them are good friends... So I was in a good friendly relationship with all of them... on Monday the one that I liked kissed me and now apparently none of them like me. They avoid talking to me and Mr. Likeable is kinda being an asshole.... I know it's a common theme on LJ at the moment but seriously... WHAT is wrong with these STUPID guys?!?!?! |

[Apr. 8th, 2005|08:07 pm] |
I don't mean to be a whiner but I have to get something off my chest.... And I'm sure many girls can relate...
I haven't had a genuine "crush" on someone for like 3 years... Now I do and I realize that I hate having that feeling. I hate not knowing what they think.. I hate being afraid of getting annoying... I hate worrying about whether or not they'll call... I hate feeling disappointed when they don't... and I hate not being able to distract myself long enough to just stop thinking about it....
SOOOOOOOO that's my rant.... I hate liking people... blah. |

| WARNING!!! |
[Mar. 23rd, 2005|08:48 pm] |
I want to warn EVERYONE... if you were ever planning on seeing The Ring 2... DON'T!!!! It is the WORST movie EVER! The reason I'm making this post is because I keep seeing these commercials claiming that it's a better movie than the first and it's scarier and what not..... It doesn't make ANY sense! There are KILLER DEER in it, and Samara wants Rachel to be her mom so she posesses the little boy's body... WHAT?! It's the WORST movie! I was more scared by Killer Klowns from Outer Space!!!!
PLEASE, for the sake of your life, your money, and your sanity, DON'T SEE THAT HORRIBLE MOVIE!!!!!!
Phew... |

Possibly the best rap lyric I've ever heard is one that I just heard on J.R.'s trackstarz thingy in Mrs. Freak when he says "I'm gonna sprinkle you but not like Dave Chappel's R.Kelly do, that's nasty".... Wow... First of all, to me it's just funny altogether, but it also brings back memories of Boston and my friend Candace who showed me that Dave Chappel video and we sang Pee On You allllllll the time... and the line "This is the remix edition of the song about pissin'"... well my friend Leanne and I got her a graduation cake that said "This is the remix edition of the cake that we pissed in" and the guy who wrote it on the cake was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO confused and thought he messed up and just couldn't read our writing...
I have to say that moving to North Carolina has been a drastic change in my life that I'm not sure I'm satisfied with. This past summer was one of the best summers ever. I hung out with Rita, Lawranne, Caroline, Jessica, and I even hung out with people I hadn't seen since high school: Patricia Morel, Jessi Wasson, Stephen Thorpe, Scott Stanley, Alison Gangl, AJ, Zach.... I became really close with Ashley Stallworth, which was a little odd because I remember him from high school being really nice and fun, but we didn't hang out outside of school. This summer I saw him almost every day and at one point was with him for 72 hours in a row and somehow we didn't get tired of each other. That was fun! I now consider him one of my best friends... We write back and forth and talk online quite a bit (although my AOL had to be uninstalled, so it's been a couple of weeks)...
I saw Joe Riddley again this past summer... Somehow I hadn't seen him since the summer after high school, which I find odd because he is my best male friend in the world. We hung out a LOT and Lawranne, Ricky, and I forced him to go swimming in the lake. He spent my 2 days in Issaquah with me which was great, and I talk to him on the phone a lot still. There's something about our relationship which is so awesome... Not sure how to describe it... so yeah...
I met J.R. this summer. This is kind of odd, but in high school he was almost like a celebrity to me. I remember thinking he was sooooooooo hot, but he was so quiet and I couldn't figure out whether he was an asshole or he was just shy, and of course I was hoping he was just shy which turned out to be the case... Although, once he gets comfortable around you he's not shy AT ALL and he's hilarious and really fun to hang out with. I had a good time with him going to Alki, Bainbridge Island (his first trip on a ferry), Snoqualmie Falls, Salsa dancing,and watching Spanish movies at his house... Those were the days...
By moving to North Carolina I feel like I've possibly missed out on a lot of things that could have happened in Issaquah... But at the same time, things in Issaquah aren't the same anymore at all. Ashley moved to New York, Lawranne moved to Cali, Caroline moved to Western Washington for the most part, Patricia Morel moved to Spokane for school and now she's in FRANCE, JR and Alison and AJ are in Seattle for school, Thorpe is in Pulman, and Joe, although he's still in Seattle, wants to move to Virginia for some reason, Rita is in Rhode Island.... people have all gone their separate ways!!!
Here in NC I've made quite a few good friends, but none of them thus far meet up to the standards set by those friends that I have named within this post. I don't feel close enough to them yet to look to them for any comfort in bad situations, and on weekends we all go to our "homes," so there's not that opportunity really to hang out much after school. Seriously, everyone who goes to school here is from around here, but my friends all live an hour or so from the school and either drive here every day or stay in Greensboro during the week and go to their homes on weekends. There are many occasions when I feel like I really want to go back to Issaquah and have all of my friends still be there... I want to be able to dress up like a goofy prostitute and go harrass Zach at work! I want to go salsa dancing! I want to go see movies with people who aren't related to me! I even want to swim in lake Sammamish and swim over the water where that creepy pipe is and get completely freaked out and scream my head off!!! I miss you people so badly!!!! :kick things:
Most of the time I'm fine with my life here... but I have to be totally honest in the fact that I really miss the one I had this summer... And this coming summer won't be the same at all. It's too hot here to function during the summers, the mosquitos will eat me alive, and our "lake" is NOTHING compared to Lake Sammamish... I must weep... |

| American Idol??? |
[Feb. 1st, 2005|08:59 pm] |

Has anyone been watching American Idol? Does anyone notice that when there's an unattractive/fat but talented woman auditioning they tell her she has a good voice but has to work on her image, so they don't let her through, yet when there's an unattractive/fat but talented guy they say they have to work on their image and then DO let them through? There was one girl who was large and they let her in, but the rest, no.... I find that a little irritating... |

My rabbit wasn't feeling well for the past couple of days so I was going to take her to the vet today, but she died last night in my arms. She'd stopped eating about 2 days before, which was what was worrying me, and of course they didn't have any vets open on Sunday and I had classes all day yesterday. I'm not sure if that would've even helped though.... There's a difference between when an animal looks like it's just sick, and when one looks like it's getting ready to die... She looked like she was going to die. But she was only 4 years old and I spoiled her to death, so I have no idea why her lifespan was so short?
Anyway, I'm extremely depressed right now, so I'm going to Charlotte today to bury her by the lake... I hate this! I had a dream last night that she somehow came back to life and I kept telling my mom "But this has to be a dream! Pinch me so it's not a dream!" and she even pinched me an everything, but it was still a dream.
My bunny has come everywhere with me for the past 4 years. I don't know what I'm going to do without her! |
