summer summer summer
the roses are even blooming on my balcony.... I should buy some more flowers and plant them out there, be all... gardener-y. I've been meaning to do that for ages, ever since sonia came. I want those cute pastel colored flower pots and etc.
To match the awesome pastel colored tights I got from shoppers drug mart last night. Pastel pink and pastel green. Very awesome. Fuge even said I looked like Cher from clueless! "Nice stems" and all. I was tres flattered.
As for my face, however, I got a burn while I was at whistler and I look like a moron. I have pasty whiteness around my eyes from where my sunglasses were, and the rest of me is all red and pealing. Not good.
Also: I neeeeeeeeeed a jooooooooooooob.
Gimmie money, somebody.

favorite moments from other people's online journals...
because my friends say the darndest things, (is that how you spell darndest?) and I don't have anything much interesting to say myself, except for more complaints in regards to my new Windows XP.
PS if you're not on here don't take it a a graven insult, you just obviously don't write enough, so write more, yah, that's right.
from louise:
"I just got a note from a parent saying "Hi, just wanted to let you know that we told "Emily" that she doesn't have to do the reading homework if she doesn't want to, as her reading homework makes her sad and argumentative with us. Please don't send any more notes home regarding this"
How fired would I be if I wrote back "Okay, but not doing her reading homework makes her illiterate. Have fun"."
from sonia:
"I just lay under my desk for ten minutes, because I am alone in the office and wanted to lie under my desk...it was neither exciting or comfortable, I was fairly disappointed...I wonder if they have cameras at my office?"
"Do you guys ever have those visions of falling backwards and then landing in a pile of big comfy pillows, the pillows to your sides lift up and come back down blanketting your body...and then you look around and you are surrounded by pillows and only that, so you can just roll around to your hearts content...and then a little bird comes to sing you a nice song, and you smack it with a pillow...and you have peace at last..."
from val:
"At the mouth of the bay there were all these boats lined up, their lights blinking. I thought about how in many of the movies i watch this would symbolize a beach-head invasion with lots of blood and casualities, oh and in the literature it would be a pirate attack. but in modern-day vancouver there's no such fear (ok, maybe a little fear. but it's just my fear, and i'm afraid of everything), oh canada the thankfully boring (for me, coddled as i am). My butt got kinda wet on the big log, but the friend who drove me home has BUTT-WARMERS in her car, so all was well."
from tanya:
"I'm drunk ...
I can't go to sleep cuz I think if I lie down, the world will spin ... spin around me .. so I need to stay upright just a little bit longer. If the world span around me, I'd be the Queen of the Universe, no? that'd be cool .... If I was the Queen of the Universe .. I'd wear pretty dresses .. made out of things like sun rays and moonbeams .. cuz after all .. the laws of physics wouldn't apply to me!"
from kingofthule:
"Two things that will drive me insane. 1: Itchy underwear, 2: The tap in the bathroom that is always left on, and I turn it off, and then the next time I am in the bathroom it is on again."
"my room is really hot because the heating in my res. has two settings, like uts
the two settings are 'off' and 'the temperature at the core of a star that is one million times hotter than our sun'"
from fuge:
"met a friendly first-year on the bus this morning. let her get five minutes into a rant about how sororities eat your soul before telling her i'm in one. also let her get five minutes into a rant about how useless anthropology is before revealling it as my major.
it was not a good day for courtney.
but it was for me!"
windows XP sucks
So, the the night before I have a 15 page essay due, my computer decided to die. I had to send it out to get fixed, which cost way too much, and now it is running with Windows XP. I do not like Windows XP. All my programs seem to stop responding as soon as I ask them to do anything. Not cool. Plus, I haven't checked yet, but I think I lost my Sims game.... VERY NOT COOL!!!
Grr.
this is kinda like my life! Michelle's Life in a Comic Strip
except with THE sims rather than with sim GOLF.
I will note, however, that it has been at least a week since I played the sims, the urgency of my schoolwork has gotten the better of me.
Also, on an unrelated note..
SONIA IS GOING TO BE AT MY HOUSE SOON.. YAY!!!!
