How to be a Rocker Chick

2006-08-25T20:52:00.000-04:00

1. Don't moan about being a chick, refer to feminism or complain about sexist discrimination. We've all been thrown down the stairs and fucked about, but no one wants to hear a whining female. Write a loosely disguised song about it instead and clean up ($).
2. Never pretend to know more then you do. If you don't know chord names refer to the dots. Don't go near the desk unless you plan on becoming an engineer.
3. Make the other band members look and sound good. Bring out the best in them; that's your job. Oh, and you better sound good too.
4. Do not insist in working with "females." That's just more b.s. Get the best man for the job. If it happens to be a woman, great - you'll have someone to go to department stores with on tour instead of making one of the road crew go with you.
5. Try not to have a sexual relationship within the band. It always ends in tears.
6. Don't think that sticking your boobs out and trying to look fuckable will help. Remember you're in a rock and roll band. It's not "fuck me," it's "fuck you"!
7. Don't try to compete with the guys; it won't impress anybody. Remember, one of the reasons they like you is because you don't offer yet more competition to the already existing male egos.
8. If you sing, don't "belt" or "screech". No one wants to hear that shit; it sounds "hysterical"
9. Shave your legs, for chrissake!
10. Don't take advice from people like me. Do your own thing always.

My state of mind

2006-08-03T00:15:00.000-04:00

Remember when you ran away and I got on my knees and begged you not to leave because I'd go berzerk?
Well, you left me anyhow and the days got worse and worse and now you see I've gone completely out of my mind.

And They're coming to take me away Ha Ha
They're coming to take me away ho ho he he ha ha
to the funny farm where life is beautiful all the time, and I'll be happy to see those nice young men in their clean white coats
and they're coming to take me away ha ha

You thought it was joke and so you laughed, you laughed when I had said that losing you would make me flip my lid, right? You know you laughed, I heard you laugh, you laughed, you laughed and laughed and then you left, but now you know I'm utterly mad.

And they're coming to take me away Ha Ha
They're coming to take me away ho ho he he ha ha
To the happy home with trees and flowers and chirping birds and basket weavers who sit and smile and twiddle their thumbs and toes
They're coming to take me away ha ha...

I cooked your food, I cleaned your house, and this is how you paid me back for all my kind unselfish loving deeds. Huh? Well you just wait they'll find you yet, and when they do they'll put you in the ASPCA you mangy mutt.

And They're coming to take me away Ha Ha
They're coming to take me away ho ho he he ha ha
To the funny farm where life is beautiful all the time and I'll be happy to see those nice men in their clean white coats
They're coming to take me away Ha Ha
And They're coming to take me away Ha Ha
They're coming to take me away ho ho he he ha ha
To the happy home with trees and flowers and chirping birds and basket weavers who sit and smile and twiddle thier thumbs and toes
They're coming to take me away Ha Ha

Your home the one the bank foreclosed, You cried to me Monogamy is the way we both must live or you'll feel hurt. But, I see, I see there's someone new, your anxious poly-pure-bred coat was even gone at our place while I paid the rent, thanks!

And They're coming to take me away Ha Ha
They're coming to take me away ho ho he he ha ha
To the loony bin with all you can eat perscription drugs like torizine, and lithium, and electric shock eels
They're coming to take me away Ha Ha

Blackboard is out to get me...I'm not paranoid. I'm running away to Mexico, where I will assume the identity of Maria Cortez, and I will be making Sombreos in Margaritaville, where's always 5 O'clock. Come visit, except don't tell those crazy email Blackboard people....Oh wait they already Know... Damn ... Foiled again
I'm a little tired can you tell?

SO....when in doubt ask the Ninja

2006-07-25T20:56:00.000-04:00

Dear Ninja, (or anyone else...ninja or otherwise)
I have a dilema...
I'm in co-op for my HR program, which means come september i should be doing the eager beaver thing, and working as a co-op student. But my problem is thus:
I don't have a co-op yet. and really no prospects...
so it's getting down to crunch time, and instead of worrying about the 6 major projects due in the next 2 weeks and the exams that follow, I find the biggest thing I'm worrying about is this lack of a co-op.
It could because I'm being difficult... is St. Thomas too far from Oakville? should i just settle and break down and start applying for everythin and anything in order to secure a co-op? Or should I have faith in the system and there will be something that i want to fight for, will apply for and will be willing to interview forth (oh yes, we aren't given a co-op, we have to find apply and everything)
So, ninja, I ask for sage advide, or really any advice please... the Guru Kid needs a Guru....
Guru Kid, aka Erin

No life Without Wife - Bride & Prejudice

2005-12-29T23:44:00.000-05:00

Lonely Mr. Kholi from Las Angeles
Came to Punjab on one bent knee
He had a green card, new house, big cash
So made a wish with every fallen lash
For you to do the journey with him
To smile when he got home ask how his day had been
He wants you by his side in joy and strife
Poor Mr. Kholi he has no life without wife.

No life Without Wife
Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
No life Without Wife
Oh yeah yeah yeah Oh yeah yeah yeah

I don't want a man who ties me down
Does what he wants while I hang around
I don't want a man who's crude and loud
Wants a pretty wife to make him proud
I don't wanna man who can't be funny
Who tells tall tales about making money

Oh Yeah…

I don't want a man who'll grab the best seat
Can't close his mouth when he starts to eat
I don't want a man who likes to drink
Or leaves his dirty dishes in the sink
I don't want a man who wants his mummy
A balding pest with too much dummy
I don't want a man who's dead in the head
Poor Mr. Kholi
Aye Mr. Kholi
Maybe he's good in bed….

Ugghhhhh….

No life Without Wife
Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
No life Without Wife
Oh yeah yeah yeah Oh yeah yeah yeah

What you don't want do matter no more
Soon you'll be married and ready to go
A match made in heaven just like milk and honey
You make all the Gobi he'll make the money
Everyday will be the same according to his plans
Forget what you want Mr. Kholi's now your man

No life Without Wife
Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

I just want a man with a real soul
Who wants equality and not control
I just want a man good and smart
A really sharp mind and a very big heart
I just want a man not scared to weep
To hold me close when we're asleep

Ohhh yeah….

I just want a man who loves romance
Who'll clear the floor and ask me to dance
I just want a man who gives some back
Who talks to me and not my rack
I just want man whose spirit is free
To hold my hand, walk the world with me

No life Without Wife
Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
No life Without Wife
Oh yeah yeah yeah
Oh yeah yeah yeah

Sorry Mr. Kholi It is not to be
My heart is set on another you see
The wandering soul I was meant to meet
Has finally come and swept me off my feet
Now I dream of what it would be like
To be an overseas bride dressed in white
To have a little home in the country
And live in the land of her majesty

Esthero - O.G. Bitch

2005-12-20T13:34:00.000-05:00

I am the original bitch, I am the original whore
I am the girl that you just won't admit you adore
I am the original witch, I am the original whore
I am the girl that you just won't admit you adore

I suppose you think that you know me now
Yeah, I bet you've got it all figured out
And you try and pick apart the shit that I do
All the while the quest for fame has got you
You're so vein, you don't even notice that corruption surrounds you
You don't even notice somebody set their arms around you

You're just waiting for me to drown
So no one knows that you stole my whole sound
And yet you're grinning when I come around
You fake ass bitch[2x]

I am the original bitch, I am the original whore
I am the girl that you just won't admit you adore
(I know, I know you love me)
I am the original witch, I am the original whore
I am the girl that you just won't admit you adore

How kind of you to offer what you think a woman should do or say
Maybe if you weren't so self-righteous,
You would not have such a hard time getting laid
Whatever you have to say out loud to convince yourself that you're right
Oh it's just too bad you carry no conviction in your so-called revelations,
Your pedantic conversations shed no light

Oh you're just waiting for me to drown
So no one knows that you stole my whole sound
And yet you're grinning when I come around
You fake ass bitch[2x]

I am the original bitch, I am the original whore (yeah, yeah)
I am the girl that you just won't admit you adore
(You know you love me)
I am the original witch (I am), I am the original whore (yeah, yeah)
I am the girl that you just won't admit you adore

Entering the fray....what? all the kids are doing it...

2005-12-12T00:22:00.000-05:00

Well.... hmmm... no drama for a long time leads to big huge meladrama... oy vey.... so, just like everyone else I too have to put my two cents in, because i have something to say... If you don't like it, I don't care... cause really a) you have no opinion, b) you don't like the side i choose or C) you're a wuss and want to blame others rather then take responsibility for your own choices and actions. Either way, a) you have no stake in this situation, B) you just want to justify your actions and make yourself look like the saint you SO are not or C) you want to attempt to be able to look your self in the mirror again.... I'll let you sort yourselves out. We'll see in the comments. Whatever...
BRING IT ON!!!!!!!!!!!
So this is the sitch from my point of view (honestly i don't care what your's is... this is my blog and freedom of speech and all that)... I won't name names....everyone involved knows who they are, i don't need to name names...
So, it was supposedly started by a blog, a small thing, but apparently it caused a rucus. Don't know how really... it didn't really do anything, but people apparently had agendas.... So The blog was founded by some prophets... and they stumbled over a ring of blogs, and decided to comment on them. Strange this being the Web and comments being allowed (read the scarcasm) all that.
Fine and Dandy.
Here's where it starts to get a little messy. According to one group, lets call the them the red group (just to avoid confusion) these Prophets harassed them and caused strife in the group, allegedly writting attacks and people shutting down blogs because of the nasty comments, has caused their group to sunder and divide, because of accusations and well.... not to sure why... sorry this argument makes little sense to me, but hey nobody accuse me now, just because i'm not blaming them.... AH Spare me!!! Therefore for causing the strife, punishment is... not so clear. Some call for the Blog to be taken Down, others call for it to stay up as an example to others. Some demand an apology. All seem to ask for an identity, I guess it's something to scream when you're burning the efirgy... whatever...
Now I wouldn't have so much of an issue, or to better put it, I'd understand it a bit better if it weren't for a couple of issues.
First: I read the posts on the actual blog, (here it is, www.bookofthree.blogspot.com) I missed seeing the names.... or the discriptions of the situations, or any mention of the situation. What i saw was a welcome post, a discussion on Wicca and one on Buddhism. A little juvenile, but nothing calling for torches and blunt instruments of destruction. It seemed fairly light and called for discussion on the ideals presented, nothing personal or anything else.... It is in the comments on then that names get named and accusations are made, and rather then discussion on the ideals, demands are made for identities, the posters get insulted and criticized, and nothing that they ask for ON THEIR OWN BLOG gets addressed.... yet they get accused more then once of attacking others' blogs and saying hurtful things....
Things that make you go hmmmm.
Which brings me to my second issue: the comments on the other blogs
Read them, yes every single one, even Lynzy's (yes it existed who do you think was there when she saw it? MORON) Didn't see the attack... Guess i didn't have my conspiracy glasses on, got to work on that. I saw a bunch of silly poems and two comments showing support for something said previously on that blog. hmmm... no insults, no personal attacks.... BRING ON THE PITCHFORKS... Oh, but then, read the comments on the prophets blog, it was asked not to comment again on those blogs.... does anyone see a further comment? Is it that conspiracy thing again? damn it. they even apologized and explained one of the poems that was posted and said it wasn't meant to be hurtful.... WOW, sorry to say this but pathetic much? If someone wanted to insult you on your blog, I can think of easier ways to do it.... sorry, but i don't have time for the subtle crap.
Which brings me to my final issue.
My issue, is that people seem to think that the blog is to blame for the problems happening in their clique. That everything was hunky dory before, and the blog made people attack one and other, and people to abandon friendships over something that the blog did. Because some one made you read it, cause someone held a gun to your head sayin you had to read that blog.
WOW did I miss that memo.

No one made you read it, no one made you respond to it. You read what you wanted into it.

The issues were there before, and honestly, even if these prophets take it down this minute, they'll still be there. Don't make them your excuse. It's stupid, idiotic and really irresponsible. You all claim to be enlightened and educated but really I can't tell from what I've seen.... but enough on that rant.
It almost doesn't matter anymore, we have to deal with the consequences
People, act like grown ups and not like the brainless dunderheads that you are right now. Take ownership of your actions. YOU MAKE YOUR CHOICES, don't blame a silly Blog. IF you abandon your friendship (yup that's what you did) you choose to do it. To be honest, it dissappointed me, and made me see that you aren't the person I thought you were and makes me wonder how we ever, ever were friends... I thought I had more taste or a better judge of character... but oh well lesson learned. You choose your bed, no you lay down in it .... and remember you brought this on yourself, and no one else is to blame. You didn't just loose one friend, you lost me too.!
As for another of you, you re-write history fairly well.... no not really. You stirred this up, maybe to help hide from the scandal you caused or some petty thing I really don't know.... Don't really understand your logic. Haven't in the past year. You just can't seem to let go of someone you deem is yours, and you can't admit that you ever did anything wrong or hurt someone. To be totally honest, you remind me of a certain mutual enemy from a few years back. You have the same memory issue. Well whatever, remember that Wiccan creed: whatever you put forth will come back on you threefold. (i think that's wiccan, maybe just fantasy, never claimed to be an expert.) Karma will bit back....
The rest of you.... aparently someone got hurt over a comment, but wow that person didn't say anything, but a hell of a lot of people did for her. She aparently just decided to give up her blog over one supposedly negative comment, and decide never to post again? WOW, i thought she had more balls then that....whoops, let those hateful comments come pooring in... The apology was made, and seemed sincere... but let's remember a few facts about blogs
1) they are on the web, therefore in public where anyone can read them
2) they sometimes have these things called comments, where people can respond and have a dialogue on-line... They don't have to have comments,
WOW so someone wrote one supposedly nasty comment... up-di-fucking-do. was there a response to it....no. was there anything at all.... strangely enough, no.... hmmm, it appears that someone gave up. (To be totally blunt, i won't read comments addressing this, only one person can say why they stopped posting,)
So... Lines are drawn, the teams are being choosen. I Choose, because this choice was forced by certain members of the group, to be with the person whose been a friend to me, who is making sense and seems to me to be the only choice i could make.... I choose, not the dark side, as some coined it , but choose Lynzy.... And nope , none of you have any clue about how dangerous and capable I am... you just go on and continue to underestimate me.... BIG MISTAKE.....
As for those Prophets, put those pitchforks down, leave them out of it They have as much right to post as anyone, even you... If you don't like this whole freedom of speech thing... Bring it on.
So endth the lesson

movies what fun... at least the trailers are

2005-11-17T14:20:00.000-05:00

I've watched a couple of trailers today, and the past couple of days that've got me excited about movies coming out in the next little while... Definitely check them out
first there's HOODWINKED the supposed true story behind Little Red RidingHood. It's a cartoon that's coming out on Dec. 23rd, and has the voice talent of Anne Hathaway, Glenn Close and Anthony Anderson... I'm really excited by this one, it looks funny, at least the trailer is pretty funny... looks like a safe bet for the holiday season.
Next is MRS. HENDERSON PRESENTS, starring Judi Dench and Bob Hoskins. Dench plays Mrs. Henderson, who newly widowed and quite wealthy doesn't know what to do now... She discovers a run down theater that she owns(?) and decides to open it up again. The Gimmick is it's nude. It takes place in War time England and Judi Dench looks as entertaining as always... This one also opens for the holiday season
The next one that I'm excited about is UNDERWORLD: EVOLUTION opening January 20th. This is a nice looking sequel with Kate Beckingsale back in the role that helped make her a star. I wonder if it will be as good as the first one.
There's also Queen Latifah's latest effort coming out in January, a remake called LAST HOLIDAY. It stars Latifah as a woman who gets diagnosed with a terminal illness, and then decides to enjoy what's left and takes a european holiday. It looks like a cute fun movie... nothing too hard or critical.
Next is the highly anticipated V FOR VENDETTA, which from the trailers is looking completely awesome. It's based on a comic book series and stars Natalie Portman. It's set in a fictional England, where the Government has the people running scared... There had apparently been a nerve agent distributed in the water that killed millions of people, and lead to the current state of affairs. Portman portrays Evie, whom Agent V saves and then recruits to the cause, I don't know to much, but I'm really really excited about this one. I'll find out in March
That's it for now, but definitely check out the trailers either at www.apple.com/trailers/ or at http://www.imdb.com/nowplaying/ Later Days Movie watchers!

title... what title? what is that?

2005-11-09T15:17:00.000-05:00

So, I'm busy procrastinating again... Bad Erin, very bad. But i hadn't posted in awhile and i'm in a different place. As you know, I'm in windsor till the end of December, finishing up school... One of the best decisions i'd made over the past year. I feel like a grown up again, in charge of my own destiny again.

Also, I have a life, and it's a balanced one. I actually hang out, and talk to people who aren't co-workers or customers or my parents.... it's a feeling i'm not used too, but it won't take me that long.

I've always maintained (well almost always) that I became a different person when i moved back home, and now i found myself again... i'm growing again and it is good.

One thing I didn't miss was all the high schooly, gossipy stuff that happens when you get a group of people together. It's human nature, and it's happens, and i should accept it and generally i do. AHHH, but it's joined the 21st century.... blogs have come into it... they act as a vehicle for the gossip, and stuff.... it's a nice way of keeping up with what's going on, and he said she said thing... which i'm pretty much addicted too....but damn it you never find out the whole story.... Oh well... It's funny though how when something happens you don't end up being surprised that something happened.... especially if you know the people involved. You can almost perdict that something will happen, it's just a matter of when.... Then you sit back and think wow, the same type of thing happened before and hmmm.... wow, History does repeat itself, and if you don't learn and figure out what happened it will be repeated.... scary hunh?

Anyways, a few announcements... Joss Whedon is on Veronica Mars tonight... making his official acting debut. He had a part on Angel as Numfar, the "do the dance of joy" type guy... but that was with heavy make up and everything. I'm looking forward to it....

Also, got back into the Gilmore Girls... i stopped watching it last year, just kind of fell out of it... then i caught some of the newer episodes... and last night's sinched it for me. Jesse from season 2 was in town and he asked the questions everyone wanted to know like... Why did Rory quit Yale? Why is she going out with Logan? What's she up to? it seemed to be the slap that she needed and the last scene was great with Rory and Emily fighting at the Russian tea, and Emily seeming to believe that Rory was her mother, like it was another chance and they weren't going to let Rory screw the pooch like Lorelai did... ha ha can't wait till next one...

ha ha ha lookie what i found

2005-08-28T00:44:00.000-04:00

HA ha look what i found again.... anyways a little about what's going on about me... I'm moving down to windsor for 4 months.... I'm pretty excited and a little scared but that's how i know that it's good for me....my family doesn't fully get it but that's cool, i kind of like being unscrutable. I'm living on Partington, just one over from Rankin, so i'll definitely be close. Come January, i 'm supposed to be going to seneca for human resource mgmt. I like hiring people, it's fun.
hopefully i'll tumble across the blog sooner then last time... but comments help.

a little bit of this, a little bit of that

2004-12-07T23:38:00.000-05:00

Well, i'm kind of feeling like my life is on track again... career wise. School seems to be sorting itself out (knock on wood). I just got back form Windsor... It's a nice place to Visit... (thank-you Lynzy and Everyone), but i don't know if i fit there anymore. it's like that really comfortable shirt that you've had for years, but is getting a little small and has rips and stains on it. I did a lot of growing up in Windsor, and that was Good. But I don't think Windsor is where i want to be... or should i say that the atmosphere of windsor. The ideal place for me, i think, is somewhere a little bigger, a little more urban. I like being in the thick of things and having stuff happening. What can i say, I'm a city girl. My ideal place would also have some of my friends living in the same city as me, not necessarily with me, but just in the same town. I miss them (you know who you are) and i have a really hard time finding the person i am with them. I like that person, they're confident, funny and wise. It's like a jekyll and hyde thing.
My life otherwise, is still in it's hold pattern, which for the next semester is probably good, but it would be nice to have something happening...but then again i am a unrepenting romantic

I've been talking to people over the past couple of days, and i think i've been getting my signals messed up... this msn thing gets me everytime. Let me just state for the record and forevermore: If your my friend, a true friend, i will stand beside you no matter what you do, i will watch your back and also let you know that your awesome and also when your being an idoit. I'd expect the same thing from my friends. I will help you bury the bodies, laugh at the jokes and share stories when we're old and gray. If i get out of line then remember this and let me know... i will try to explain why i'm butting in, and you can tell me to go to hell, but i'll always be there so HA HA HA you'll never get rid of me

Numfar do the dance of joy

2004-11-14T22:21:00.000-05:00

I've rediscovered my Blog!!!! nifty. anyways a lots been happening over the past couple of weeks. Some of you may be aware that i messed up my last year and am therefore still working on graduating. oh well. so yeah, that's my brilliance.
I'm still working at the Shoe Company, i'm a keyholder right now, working towards the assistant manager position...i still live at home. yup i 'm pathetic.
When all this stuff happened , i started thinking about the future, where i actually want to go. See I've never been sure what i was going to do with my life...still not fully sure. Oh, I always had options but not a calling. It 's frustrating being around people who knew what they were going to do be when they grew up... i don't think i ever really had an answer, i still don't. I just kind of go with the flow....which is flexible, but it lacks drive and passion and vision. which is not so satisfying. SO i'm working on THE PLAN, which i hope will give me some goals and direction.
This plan, which is still in it's infancy, might include a move to somewhere else... maybe to be closer to people who bring out the other me. I know Independent woman and everything. but it's been remarked on and i've agreeed that I was different when i was in Windsor then i am in OAkville. And i miss the person i was. I feel a like i'm in limbo here, not so much growing, but in stasis. It's not comfortable for me, because i need to keep growing and putting myself in situations where i keep growing. and i'm not in one of those. I need to get some things settled here and get some things in order before i can move on to my next step.

so to turn this pity fest around.....i've discovered that i have a soundtrack....or at least a bunch of theme songs....
The MAIN THEME of my life is 8 Easy Steps by Alanis Morrisette.... it works for me and fits with how i feel now and how i hope to learn and move on.
Faith by George Micheal is still my LOVE THEME song.... I still have faith (Melissa, I'm still waiting for that blonde...you don't suppose he came in on my day off?) also along with The Truth by India.arie
My KICKIN' ASS song has to be I won't be ignored by Linkin Park.... with close runners up of The Wreckoning by Boomkat, and We won't go Quietly, Me against the World and One girl revolution by Superchick
My FEEL GOOD THEMES well...i have a few... There's Golden by Jill Scott, Video by India.arie, Sea of no cares by Great Big Sea and Strength Courage and Wisdom by India.arie
then there's the GOING NUTS AND BUSTING OUT A MOVE THEMES...All Nite by Janet Jackson is an excellent start, Mis-teeq's Scandalous is a good follow up with Sean paul's Get Busy and Hey Ya by Outkast is good way to wind up this list....
so that's my soundtrack, What's yours?

Over the past couple of months read and seen things (books, movies, sites,etc.) that are a crime not to share with my friends. so here it is. I'm going to do these things in parts so...
Part 1 - Books:

Vampires, my latest kick
1. Sunshine by Robin Mckinley
Very good near future book about a baker named Sunshine who gets caught by some vampires to feed a captive vampire...very good, very hard to put down.
2. Undead And Unwed by MaryJanice Davidson
very funny, for a romance book, this story is about Betsy, a shoe-ahloic who is not your ordinary vampire. this books 3 main white hats strangely resemble myself, melissa and our friend James...a sequel, undead and unemployed is due out in August
3. Blood series by Tanya Huff
A classic of the genre, it stars PI Vicki, a former Toronto police detective who becames entangled in the supernatural world after meeting Henry Fitzroy, bastard son of Henry VIII, now a romance author
4. Diana Tregarde series by Mercedes Lackey
not as well known as some others, these books focus on Diana a Guardian who fights Bad supernatural things. only the first book really deals with vampires but all are very good.
5. Anita Blake Series by Laurell K Hamilton
a series about an alternate universe, focusing on Anita Blake, an animator and vampire executioner. Definitely rated R, lots of violence and sex. it's kind of gone down hill but it's still quite an escape

Kid's books
1. The Tortall Books by Tamora Pierce
She's pretty good, and i've been reading these books for like the past 10 years. The first is the song of the lioness, which is the story of Alanna, who wants to become a Knight of Tortall, even though she's a girl, the next is Wild Mage, which is about Daine who can talk to animals with magic, the third is called protector of the small, with stars Kel, who is the first lady who legally tries for knighthood...the latest is about Alanna's daughter who is spying and leading a revoloution.
2. Ella Enchanted by Gail Carson Levine
If you have seen the movie, read the book...even if you haven't seen the movie read the book. It's a retelling of the story of Cinderella. Ella is a girl who has had the misfortune to be gifted with obedience. this book details her quest. The movie handles the story in a different way, and cuts out a lot of stuff.

Other Books
1. The Boy next door and Boy meets Girl by Meg Cabot
By the author of the Princess diaries, these books tell the tale of 2 different romances at the new york journal. Nothing extraordinary there. What makes this quite entertaining is that the story is told completly through emails, instant messenger chats and journal entries. very entertaining and a lot is left to the imagination

anyways that's it for now....but I'll leave you with this tidbit....The title of the next Harry Potter Book is...
HArry Potter and the Halfblooded Prince

Chocolate....the savour of sanity... at least mine

2004-06-22T23:04:00.000-04:00

LIfe is short. Eat dessert first!

2004-05-21T18:35:00.000-04:00

Stuck in limbo...well yeah...slowly making my way out of it. But it still sucks. By Limbo, I mean that i have no course plotted, that i don't know where to go from here or anything...It's really frustrating. I stopped moving. I need to keep moving, going somewhere, always growing, otherwise i get stagant....that's not a good thing. If i don't keep moving, growing and challenging myself, i get complacent and lazy...just doing enough to get by...and really that ain't healthy....so yeah. It's getting better, I'm doing interviews and hopefully something will pan out, and giving me a new focus and a new direction to grow in.
So being at home is a lot quieter on the social front, then being in Windsor. I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing. I guess, like most things, it's a little bit of both. It's bad in that i miss my friends, and being a part of their lives and being able to be there if they need me. But It's good in that, i was lossing my focus, and i need a chance to recharge, put things in perspective and rediscover the person that i've become. I've changed over the past year, and i'm not as sure of who i am as i once was. I think when i re introduce myself to ...myself, i'll know what i'm supposed to do and where to go.
But I miss Windsor, and all the crazyness it entails....So i want gossip, details and accounts of what's going on...come on...you know you wanna....i won't tell....promise (seriously)!

2004-04-14T12:53:00.000-04:00

well ... over the past week...I've been refering to April 25th as D-Day... It's the day that I move out of residence...and it was when i had to know what I was doing and where I was moving too. Well, I'll be moving back to OAkville...for awhile at least. the plan is for Kennis and me to get an apartment in Toronto, while she's going to U of T and me doing this Post graduate thing at Humber for Fundraising and volunteer management. It'll be a year with an internship...I'm actually really looking forward to it. the only down side is leaving all my friends down here. Well they will just have to come visit... Cause we have a play to put on.

What movie Do you Belong in?(many different outcomes!)
brought to you by Quizilla
this one's eriely accurate...

You enter the door .You see the higher being and
listen to what it says to you:
I have already been waiting for you.You ask
yourself why, dont you? Let me explain:
You should know that I am not the highest being I
am just one of the nine servants. And I am
sent to make you think about something but I am
not here to answer your questions. I can not
tell you too much but I will come again. So
listen what I have to say!
I am the higher being of confusion. I shall tell
you that you are stuck somewhere. There are
ways and you dont know which to take. And you
dont go on. But let me tell you its more worse
to do nothing than to make a mistake .From
mistakes you learn and make it better next time
but if you stop going on you stop to live and
this is a place between life and death.
and this one too...

LOVING ONE. You need safety in your relationship.
You want to be sure in his/her arms, knowing
that he will protect you and you can be totally
devoted to your other. At this point you are
very vulnerable. You open yourself and dont
even think that he/she could cheat you. You
totally trust your partner in every single way.
SO if you find out that she/he lied to you or
played a game this trust is broken. You may try
to forgive your other but this will be very
difficult.He/She has to be friendly and
trustworthy.
PLEASE VOTE, I want to know what you think about my
quiz, I worked hard on it.
You can always message me or tell me how I can
improve that quiz. Ill sure write back.

wow i haven't updated by for awhile.
man, sometimes i think we've come so far, and then something happens that makes me realize that we're never going to escape high school, or the damn antics that goes along with it. I have such high hopes that we finally become adults, that we can make rational decisions, that we can make decisions based not on personal feeling, or at least recognize that feeling and acknowledge...or to at least listen to arguements presented and not be so set on a course to ignore anything else. To many people have private agendas that they won't set aside. It annoys me and frustrates that no matter how much you can educate someone and expect them to act as an adult...and then they pull this high school bull shit...and they were reminded and asked to be an adult. will it ever stop, or am i doomed?

2004-03-17T12:55:00.000-05:00

HAPPY ST. PATTY'S!!!!!!
Wow i haven't updated in awhile. Well i don't know what to say...I hope everyone goes out and vote...and i'll findout tonight or tomorow. the suspense...nooooo... anyways, it's been a weird week...very uncertain and hard to get stuff accomplished in....and also there are a lot of things coming to ahead that've been building up since feburary. so yeah...
Saw Hidalgo on Monday with Lynz and Patty O. It was entertaining and good times for all. Also had red lobster for the first time....definitely will be going there again.....
that's all for now.... i'll post results when i know

2004-03-02T18:47:00.000-05:00

Woo hoo!!!
I' ve made my modern character.... I'm soooooo Excited!!! Even though it seems to be my mission to make Patrick work hard. meh some one has to. I'm very excited, cause Fiona, my modern character is smarter and prettier then Theodora, my other character. it'll be cool.
And my other creative venture of the day was finalizing my campaign strategy. I'm calling it "Join the Rainbow". Think skittles, and muppets and other things. What i want to do is to help empower students and get them to opt-in to school and also to celebrate the many different people that make up the "rainbow" that is our campus. well yup. What i'm going to need help is making and putting up posters, and making flyers to hand out. I also need a scrutineer. A scrutineer is my representative at the counting, making sure things are above board. counting happens after polls close on the 17th. VOTE FOR ME!!!!
thanks

2004-03-01T13:51:00.000-05:00

Wow i wonder why i'm so tired today.... couldn't have anything to do with the elmos last night...at all .... not a bit... well maybe
last night was a blast....everyone looked great...well maybe not lawerence, but everyone else....it was a night of stars.... Henri was there .. along with child and Mackenzie..... it was fun.
So yeah.... ELECTIONS... Just to let those of you who don't know, i'm running for the VP administration for the UWSA. IF i get it, i'll be staying in Windsor for another year, and getting paid....and i'd have a nifty office...

You're like an angel. As everyone knows, angels
dwell in heaven. They were desribed as shining
ones wearing white and the idea that they have
wings is believed as well. Guardian angels are
the ones that many people think are dead loved
ones who try to protect the living friends or
family they have on Earth. They usually had
blonde hair and maybe brown with flawless
appearance and sweet dispositions. They were
cheerful, hopefull, selfless, loving, and kind.
Angels are the one mystical creature that a
majority of people truly believe in. Encounters
with angels are poping up all over the world
and reassuring people's beliefs in angels.

Your soul is bound to the Rose Bud: The
Naive.

"I keep all of my secrets somewhere inside
and though I haven't let myself shine to the
world, I'm good for something but too good to
give to you."

The Rose Bud is associated with innocence,
curiosity, and confidence. It is governed by
the god Cupid and its sign is The Dewdrop, or
Puppy Love.

As a Rose Bud, you may have grand ideas about love
and you may well be inexperienced. You tend to
be optomistic, idealistic, and curious, but
it's just because you like being a positive
person. You also may have high thoughts of
yourself, and can come off a bit conceited, but
it's just a mask to hide your lack of
experience.

WARNING: RANT FOLLOWING, READ AT OWN RISK
Why are families so complicated? why can't people tell people what they feel....why do they have to hide it, or not say and leave you to guess. I hate conflict...really avoid it when i can. It sometimes gets me into trouble, and it generally leads to me leaving things to fester....it's a major fault of mine i know.... So even though I know it will get resolved or everyone will feel better at the end, I can't really call someone out on things.....I might just be a dysfunctional alpha type person....like a dysfunctional gifted child.
It Just really bugs me and brings me down, and hurts when people I care about, and care what they think about, don't see all that i accomplish or they see it as secondary to what they view as important. Now i admit that things that are important to me aren't what's important to everyone. That's the way it should be. But, with that we have to acknowledge that what each one of us holds important is important, and equally valid. We have to respect that.
something else that's bugging me, is the guilt trips. not the teasing dog whimpering frequently taking place at lotto house, but the ones for making me feel bad for making a decision about attending graduation, or not. IF it's hurt you, tell me, but don't start treating me like i'm an ungrateful child and giving me the cold shoulder. IT hurts especially when I should be and need to be making my own decisions as an adult. If you told me why it was important to you, or if we could sit down and talk about it, i would reconsider any decision i make. However, going this route, doesn't make either of us look like adults and really when i do give in, i end up resenting it and this whole incident and yeah...
I'm planning to head back to Windsor on thursday morning...
Later days.....very much looking forward to the Elmos

So i was watching a makeover story today. It had to girls in new york getting make overs at Henri Bendel's. One of the accesories that the girls got was a riding crop...with a handle covered in pink rhinstones. Which reminded me of an on going conversation i have with Melissa ( not to be confused with Weaver, but best friend melissa). She keeps asserting that I am a closet dominatrix. Yup little sweet me. Does that shock you? doesn't it just make you wanna go "oooohhhhh"? Some people aren't shocked by this statement, and some people are. Strangely enough, it's the people who know me well who aren't shocked by this statement. Friends hear that Melissa thinks I'm a closet dominatrix, and they agree.
I wouldn't really have a problem with this, except no ones been able to explain to me HOW i'm a closet dominatrix? really it's annoying.....everytime i ask they go they can't explain it, i just am....apparently. So please someone explain please, if you agree, or reassure me that melissa's wrong? please pretty please...with a cherry on top...
meanwhile, i'm going to figure out how to make a rhinestone handle for a riding crop...weaver talked me into buying it for a halloween costume....HONEST....stop laughing...please stop shaking your head and smirking....don't make me punish you... ;)

Sadness today...Angel Has been cancelled. Yup the oddessy that has been buffy and angel in weekly installments ihas come to an end....This is really sad for me, cause I remember when i saw that first episode of buffy, back in grade 10, and how it entertained me and made me cry and more. It was one of the best shows on television....with some of the best lines. But have no fear...they're have been talks of TV movies, and probably films too...and plus....7 seasons of buffy and 5 seasons of Angel to come out on DVD....

so yeah...in the aftermath of yesterday's anti-valentine's party are my crunchy hair....and the dynamic duo of game wininess didn't happen last night. Sadly Lynzy and I (and Ashley) didn't win 7 deadly sins last night....quite a shocker to some....but we were a little tipsy so maybe that has something to do with it... well that story works...
So yeah, about Valentine's day.... how inclusive is it, really? And really what does it entail? really that you must shower your significant other with lots of gifts in order to prove your love. What's up with that? First, if you can only believe someone loves you because they're giving you stuff, then that's really sad. Second.... the showing to someone that you love them should happen all year, everyday, not just on valentine's day. I don't know about you, but just hearing someone tell me that they love me, means more then any gift they could give me....maybe i'm just crazy. yup, crazy.....LIKE A FOX!!!!
Anyways, I hate February. It's the worst month... People are always playing power games, plotting against other people.... mostly making life difficult and stuff....February is where the drama happens, at least in my life....and it's not good drama....this is where the shit happens... usually. This is when I have to watch my Back around people I need to trust to work with them, and worry, not only about if they're doing their jobs, but also what they're saying about each other, and to how and what clicques are happening, or what rumours are going on...... and these things are never positive....never...... Cause really a rumour about someone doing something amazing isn't as juicy as someone not doing their job..... It brings such a darg on everyone, and gets me a little depressed about the state of things.... That what has become inportant and newsworthy are the negative things, what people did wrong, what their mistakes were, what they didn't do what they're faults were. The positive things people do aren't giving even half the attention. So we reward bad behaviour, and ignore good behaviour and positive contributions as something as a matter of course...
sorry about the rant, needed to get that off my chest and verbalize it (kind of).
On a positive note, I'm trying to figure out if i want to stick with running for President of the UWSA or to Switch over to Vice President Administration. It might fit my qualifications better, and i'd be able to hit it running, instead of playing catch up as President. And President's deal with a lot of politics and nitpicky stuff....a lot of stupid stuff.....trust me, i know. I don't know if i'm ready to deal with that on a bigger scale...and if the goals i want to achieve aren't more suitted to Vp administration....And i already have a lot of the connections for it....himmm something to ponder...
anyways, later days

You are a PHOENIX in your soul and your
wings make a statement. Huge and born of flame,
they burn with light and power and rebirth.
Ashes fall from your wingtips. You are an
amazingly strong person. You survive, even
flourish in adversity and hardship. A firm
believer in the phrase, 'Whatever doesn't kill
you only makes you stronger,' you rarely fear
failure. You know that any mistake you make
will teach you more about yourself and allow
you to 'rise from the ashes' as a still greater
being. Because of this, you rarely make the
same mistake twice, and are not among the most
forgiving people. You're extremely powerful and
wise, and are capable of fierce pride, passion,
and anger. Perhaps you're this way because you
were forced to survive a rough childhood. Or
maybe you just have a strong grasp on reality
and know that life is tough and the world is
cruel, and it takes strength and independence
to survive it. And independence is your
strongest point - you may care for others, and
even depend on them...but when it comes right
down to it, the only one you need is yourself.
Thus you trust your own intuition, and rely on
a mind almost as brilliant as the fire of your
wings to guide you.You are eternal and because
you have a strong sense of who and what you
are, no one can control your heart or mind, or
even really influence your thinking. A symbol
of rebirth and renewal, you tend to be a very
spiritual person with a serious mind - never
acting immature and harboring a superior
disgust of those who do. Likewise, humanity's
stupidity and tendency to want others to solve
their problems for them frustrates you
endlessly. Though you can be stubborn,
outspoken, and haughty, I admire you greatly.

a few friends put up some quizzes....well they were good but i don't think they beat this one

The New Girl in Town

While the rest of the town is swapping lovers, backstabbing friends, and selling family out, The New Girl in Town is one of the few characters with any real heart — or integrity. Somehow The New Girl makes it through all the episodes untarnished, with her sterling reputation and optimism intact.

While you may not have just fallen off the turnip truck like The New Girl in Town, you probably share a certain sunny disposition with her, looking on the bright side of things, and giving people the benefit of the doubt. And because of your outlook, people are probably irresistibly attracted to you.

If your half-stepbrother were accused of stealing a secret formula, you'd probably be first to run to his defense — trying to uncover clues that point to the true culprit. When they free him on all charges and arrest the right man, people probably won't even start nasty rumors about the coincidence that you started dating the Chief of Police around the same time that your bro was first arrested.

So enjoy your popularity as The New Girl in Town. Just watch your back for those folks who don't have such kind intentions or you might find yourself careening off a cliff or getting framed for someone else's transgressions. That's the only way anyone could get a New Girl in Town like you down.

HAVE FUN!!!!!!!
