Still Adrift

Speaking.

January 30, 2002

So yeah, it didn't snow...should have known that if the news guys said it *might* then it probably wouldn't. ; ) Oh well...it would have been nice to see snow for a third time in my life. ; ) It is still butt cold though...*shiver*

I am really enjoying my marriage and family life class. this week we're talking about...(everyone sigh with me)...love. On one side it is very interesting, and on the other side, it's depressing..heh. So far from the class, i've figured out that i've done more wrong things than right things when it comes to relationships, but some of you may know that already. ; )

On a complete side note...I found a Mercury Cougar winamp skin last night. It's nothing fancy, but still sweet none the less. I am also saddened to learn that ford is going to quit making Cougars. : ( I guess 2002 is going to be the last year. that sad to hear for a cougar family such as mine. Oh well, I got my '67 so I will live. ; )

I dropped my piano class today. It was one of those impulse things, that you don't plan on doing but then all of the sudden, you decide, 'why not?' I really didn't like my teacher, the class is a little different than I expected, and I honestly didn't really want to put out the effort of learning it right now, so I dropped it. So far I am not regretting it. : )

Had an okay day..in a very good mood considering what's been going on lately, so I was glad about that. It was nice to smile and laugh for once. ; ) I went to Rena's house and she scanned some pics of me, so if anyone is interested in seeing them let me know, and I'll be glad to share. I'm thinking about getting one of those online photo album thingy's but I don't know. I have one on Yahoo, but I really don't like it. ; )

Get this..a chance of snow tonight! i'm like 'wow!!' lol. it doesn't snow in tulare..lol. So it ought to be interesting if we wake up tomorrow morning and see a little snow on the ground and if we do, then I guess brian can laugh at me. : )

Here's a few quotes I got in my e-mail about destiny....

"Thoughts lead on to purposes; purposes go forth in action; actions form habits; habits decide character; and character fixes our destiny." ~ Tyron Edwards

"Choice, not chance, determines destiny." ~ Unknown


Aren't those good quotes?? I thought so. ; )

I didn't realize it had been so long since i posted, but then again not much to report. I am doing okay...life sucks when it comes to certian things and people, but other than that i am surviving. : ) hopefully stuff will be resolved soon...i dunno how much more i can handle. oh yeah and if ya ever get bored, take a quiz about me. : ) (I stole the idea from Brian. )

Well, all in all, today wasn't really a bad day. I woke up after 5am cause my dog wouldn't shut up and I didn't get back to sleep until 7 or so..it's funny..i turned on the history channel and i feel asleep. coincidence, i think not. : ) then i had to force myself to get up at 11am : )

I cleaned out the car, vacuumed it, and washed it today. so it's all sparkly. i was going to try and be spiffy and put in the anti-freeze, cause my dad hasn't done it yet..but i read the back of the bottle and it said something like, "...flush out cooling system..." and i stopped there and put the bottle back. hell, i don't even know what the cooling system is, so there went that idea. but i did successfully put the Rain-x on the windshields : ゙

I better go to fullerton's website...i need to find out information..cause now that i'm admitted, i'm like 'now what the hell do i do?' : )

Mr. Lonely

Lonely, I知 Mr. Lonely
I have nobody for my own
I am so lonely, I知 Mr. Lonely
Wish I had someone to call on the phone

Now I知 a soldier, a lonely soldier
Away from home through no wish of my own
That痴 why I知 lonely, I知 Mr. Lonely
I wish that I could go back home

Letters, never a letter
I get no letters in the mail
I致e been forgotten, yes, forgotten
Oh how I wonder, how is it I failed

Now I知 a soldier, a lonely soldier
Away from home through no wish of my own
That痴 why I知 lonely, I知 Mr. Lonely
I wish that I could go back home


okay, so the song doesn't totally apply to me..but it's how I'm feeling. : (

So I'm sitting here, 2:25pm, eating top ramen and still in my pjs...lol. heck why do anything today right? ; ) I called monique and asked if she wanted to go do something tonight, but she hasn't called me back..hopefully she will, cause i want to get out of here.

Getting fit does sound like a good idea. i should probably jump on the band wagon. we have a treadmill that has hardly been used. exercising was part of my new year's resolution, but well, yeah i haven't done anything yet. i think i'm doing okay on cutting out the sweets and stuff. i'm drinking less caffeine, but i can't tell if that is good or bad.. : ゙

Let's see..is there anything else...oh yeah..311's coming to bakersfield on Mar. 1st. and of course i want to go so bad i can taste it. rena has already declined...and well, i'm gonna mention it to curt, but i don't know how far that'll go. anyone wanna go with me?? c'mon...i know you want to... : ) *sigh* i may just have to go myself. hoobustank(sp) is opening for 311...which is okay i guess, not too interested in seeing them. i'll just have to see what happens. : )

K, guess i better go do something with my day....

i really wish i could explain how i am feeling...but even if i could, i don't think anyone would understand. I am just....sad... :'(

music: metallica - nothing else matters

Well, I'm home after my first day of this semester. Not too bad. I think I am going to enjoy all of my 2 classes. ; ). Both of my teachers have spunk, which is a good thing. : ) I convinced my friend Monique to go with me to my Piano class cause she had nothing better to do and now she's actually thinking about taking it...woo! It'd be fun to have her in there.

Still a little sick...I still have my stuffy nose and I sound weird when I talk, but oh well..I think i talk weird anyways..lol. I hope I get over this soon.

*sniff...sneeze...blows nose*
I am officially sick. Blah.

January 10, 2002

Well, lookie here...blogger works. it's about time, i've been trying to publish since monday.
not much going on in my world..i think i'm starting to catch my mom's cold. : ( not good..i start school on the 14th. I've had plently of time to get sick and get over it before school started, but noooooooo. so tonight i'm gonna take a shot of nyquil before i go to bed. hopefully that'll help and maybe i won't get sick. But it would figure, just when i'm starting to feel better mentally, physically i start feeling like crap. *grrr*

Damn, it'd figure again..i've been wanting to blog all week and i can't think of anything to say..oh well..guess i'll go. : )

I just heard an Eddie vetter (from pearl jam) version of you've got to hide your love away by the beatles. my mouth fell open when i heard it. it's not really bad. it's sounds like the beatles one, but with eddie vetter's voice. but i still found it shocking, none the less. : ) check it out sometime. : )

music: nickelback - too bad

January 04, 2002

Hmm...I am not looking forward to this weekend...only cause I don't think I'm gonna have much to do. I guess I could find something to get into. ; )

Tonight my friend and I just went to wal-mart and looked around...I guess that and getting a new wallet were the highlights of my day. ; ) Geez, I am so damn exciting huh??

music: listening to Dateline

Just like a lot of other people, I am wondering what 2002 holds. I think we can take 2001 has a good example of how anything can happen. I have never been a resolution person...*if* i make any, i make them to myself and I really don't share them with people. I think I have a plan: make some small resolutions that I am pretty sure I can keep and then upgrade my resolutions as time goes by. So here is to hoping my small ones last. ; ) I am trying to remember the past year..and truth is, I can only remember maybe from April on. I was *this close* to seeing Curt, I made new friends (mostly online...hehe), saw 2 of my bestest friend's move away...at least that's what I considered them, hurt one of my really good friends...I guess the past 8 months or so have been different so to speak. I am inspired to say something so philosophical, but as usual words fail me. Though I am pretty tired, so I can use that as an excuse. ; )

Part of me is really looking forward to this year. If everything goes as planned, in about 9 months, I'll be starting a whole new chapter of my life; that's the way I am looking at it anyways. I will be getting out of the town I have lived in for all but one year of my life, the place I grew up and actually going out into the world and live on my own..*gulp*. Scary but exciting at the same time. Nothing else for the new year is planned...I guess I'll just go along for the ride, like so many of us do.
