Tuesday, September 05, 2006

i think today is going to be a blue day.
i woke up kinda bummed for some reason.
and i just had a conversation that is weighing very heavily on my heart. i don't know what to do about it. i guess i haven't really thought much about how much my actions can affect others, and now i'm understanding a little how they have. and i just don't know...

i love how i only post here when i'm not happy. i'm a loser yay!

Tuesday, April 04, 2006

right now i am glad that no one reads this, because now i can go off.

i am not happy right now. a lot of things are happening at once, and that pretty much inevitably leads to me being not happy. a lot of it is dumb stuff, for example, the extra tickets that i paid for for the european disco tonight, that i don't even know why we needed. all we needed was 3, why did we buy 6? and now i can't even go, so not only do i have my extra ticket, i have 2 others, and i was the one that paid for them. that pisses me off.
room draw is not fun, figuring things out is just too much stress. we can't live here because of this or there because of that, etc, and now we can't even do the college hill room draw tonight because a room deposit hasn't been paid.
this policy paper ticks me off, because it takes up so much time, and yet is worth basically no points. i guess she told our class today that she's going to have them graded/handed back to us by tuesday. we're turning them in on thursday. how the heck is an adjunct who teaches just that class b/c she has a real job outside of this going to grade 12 or 13 20-30 page papers in 4 days? that means she's not going to read them very carefully, which REALLY ticks me off, because i've been working on this paper since the beginning of the semester.
i'm tired of people complaining about money and such. get a freaking job. i have one, i may not like working, especially in fast food, but i am working. and have been since i was a junior in high school. i have pretty much never in my life just worked one job at a time, i've almost always had at least 2, especially in the summer.
i pretty much wish i hadn't stayed at malone. i'm not happy here anymore. i'm worried about my future/my loans, and the fact that social workers make diddly squat. but my mom has worked so hard for me to be able to stay here, and i've paid a good bit of money myself. and i think i would probly feel the same way at a different school anyway.
i get brushed aside a lot. i know that i've said it before, but i'm so sick of people telling me how many friends i have. it's not true at all. i'm not even gonna get into that.

and now it's time to get back to what my life has consisted of lately, writing papers.

i can't believe that 'someone you know' was my own freaking little brother, and i had no idea.
i'm clueless! haha. i should have figured it out just from the comment about the "evil lunch-stealing monkeys"
come visit me and bring cats and dogs and warriors of virtue! moo!

i just listened to the Godspell soundtrack for the first time in a really long time. maybe the first time ever all the way through. i like it. i like broadway.

this weekend was amazing.

and...cuddly? haha


those are just 3 out of about 120 pictures... haha
come see me to see more. or, i put some on facebook and some on webshots

this is the 902 post on this blog. that's a lot of posts. but i've been using this since i was a senior in high school, although i took a year or 2 off to be disloyal and use xanga for awhile.

but anyway. i like eve 6. i hadn't listened to them for awhile. i'm listening to horrorscope, cuz it's my favorite. i remember the first time i realized that i have the editted version, and understood why there are random blank spots in the song... haha

i own all of the myst games now: myst, riven, exile, revelation, end of ages, uru, and 2 uru expansion packs. it's been like a 7 year process for me. haha. i love it. :-)

lunch soon. then history. it cracks me up, cuz i sit in between paul and brit. obviously the best place to sit. and it makes class more interesting.

so that's all for me.



listening to eve 6 makes me think of lynne, for some reason. maybe because a really long time ago i got this cd from her when i burned a copy of it.

Monday, January 23, 2006

i think i'm going to go make myself some coffee.

Sunday, January 15, 2006

still not really in school mode... finding it hard to do things like write this 3-page paper for tuesday, although i need to today, cuz tomorrow chrissy is coming! and then i work 5-9

work is going better, last night i didn't have to clean a lot of stupid things. i learned counter, and did well enough that my manager decided after about 5 minutes that i didn't really need to be supervised, which was encouraging, cuz when i first started working there i thought i would never get the hang of things. although it does take me almost an hour to slice some lemons, and then squeeze a gallon of lemonade out of the rest, while i hear it only takes anthony 8 minutes... haha. so i'm slow at some things...

confusing moment of last night:
"sorry that i ran that up on your register doug, the one i was using was shut down and i didn't know what do do."
-me to doug, one of my managers
"that's ok juanita."
-said manager, doug
"...[pause. insert my confusion.]... did you just call me juanita?"
-me [i was wearing my nametag that clearly states 'tracey]
"yeah, i did."
-doug
"i'm not really sure why you said that, or what just happened"
-me
"yeah, me either"
-doug, and then he walks away
ok so maybe you had to be there, but seriously. it was towards the end of the night, so i was overwhelmed with all the things i had learned, and that just threw me off, and then i messed up the order that i was taking, although it got a laugh out of the customers... haha


the mothman prophecies isn't really a scary movie. so many people said that it was, so i was kinda disappointed when i watched it. all well.

i should get on that paper now... i could have been done by now, i've been sitting at my computer screen for an hour doing nothing... haha

Friday, January 13, 2006

i can't remember why i didn't leave

Monday, January 09, 2006

every once in awhile, when i haven't listened to them for a bit, i listen to something corporate, and then i fall in love all over again.
<3

just wanted to share that thought, haha



oh, and "someone you know"? i have absolutely no idea who you are...

Tuesday, January 03, 2006

christmas break is nearing it's end, and i don't like that.
i have absolutely NO desire to return to malone.

i worked 11-4 today. i love the daytime ladies, they're great. i laughed so much today. and i worked on counter for 2 hours before i got thrown in grill, so that was nice too.
tomorrow i work 4-8 at chick-fil-a, thursday 11-4 at mcdonalds, and friday 4-8 at chick-fil-a again. not so excited about driving to canton and back twice this week...

terri wetherald [aka the mother of my best friend from elementary school/jr high/half of high school/still the person in the world who knows the most about me and who i love a lot] came into mcdonalds on her break today, and informed me that my lee-uh is ENGAGED! that makes me happy. :) we were just talking about it the last time we hung out, which was like 2 weeks ago at jenny's house.
speaking of jenny, she called me a bit ago, and i'm hanging out with her tonight. which will either consist of talking and knitting, or watching a movie and talking and knitting. haha. i love jenny.
seriously, nothing is as amazing as childhood friends who know you so well and have seen you through so many stages of life. it's the best.

anyway. i'm going to play either final fantasy: mystic quest on snes, or rct 2 on here.
so that's all for now.
not that anyone reads this anyway, haha

Monday, January 02, 2006

yesterday, i did have lunch with my wifey and christy. it was enjoyable. :)

today my family and i headed to carnation mall in alliance to go see the lion, the witch, and the wardrobe at the movie theater there. on the way there, i was looking around and thinking "hey that's the road to get to camp limrod. hey that's the road that i turned on every day to get to the church. that's the road to shari's house." and i decided that even though it could mess up the job at chick-fil-a, i want to work at camp limrod again this summer.
so then we saw narnia, and sat in the second row because the theater was packed with children, haha. my family liked it. [i was seeing it for the second time]. i liked it again.
when i checked my email after we got home [for the first time in like 2 days, due to the fact that i've become a recluse and don't get online, and when i do i put up an away message or go invisible on instant messenger, and rarely check my email or anything], i had an email from shari saying that she wanted to know as soon as possible if i was interested in coming back to camp. so i took that as an OK from God and emailed her back. it's a good job with good money.


and i think this is the end of camp luz, cuz i'm not planning on working at all this coming summer. i will work on weekends if rochelle calls me, and if i can work it out with chick-fil-a. it's just a weird thought...


anyway. i'm going to play rct2 now. :-)
