kade, posts by tag: life - LiveJournal

YO. It's been a while. I haven't done one of these questionnaires in a billion years, so here goes!

Get to know me.

A) What does the last text you sent say? And to whom?
It was to Maia and it was sarcastically singing Adele lyrics: "HELLO FROM THE OTHERRR SIIIIIIDE."

B) What does the last text you recieved say? And from whom?
Jess telling me she had to convince herself not to buy a stack of fucking books LOL

C) What time do you wake up most mornings?
6-6:15 *super sad face* I am not a morning person, but it takes me 25-40 minutes to get to work depending on how shitty the traffic is. Stupid traffic.

D) Are you afraid of walking alone at night?
Nope, I love walking at night!

E) What do you do to relax at the end of a stressful day?
Either go to the gym to work off the stress orrrr eat chocolate. Sometimes both xD

F) Where did your last kiss take place and with whom?
Umm...I walked out of the bathroom and kissed Kevin.

G) Do/did you get into trouble a lot at school?
Not really. Most days I was avoiding interaction like the introvert I am xD

H) Do you enjoy your job? If unemployed, are you content being so?
I do! I'm a Veterinary Technician. I love working with animals more than anything, although my current job has some downsides. I wish some things were different, but it's honestly temporary until Kevin finishes his post-doc, so I can deal with it until then.

I) Do you often pick up on double entendres and innuendos?
Yeah usually.

J) Have you ever been offered drugs but declined?
Listen, I lived in Colorado for like 8 years xD

K) Have you ever met someone who has completely altered your way of thinking?
Probably. Every now and then someone brings up a point that I'd never thought to question before, and when challenged to think of why I do or don't agree, sometimes I find that my answer isn't what I thought it'd be. That sort of thing. I can't think of anything specific off the top of my head, but it happens.

L) Have you ever been offered drugs and accepted?
Shouldn't this have directly followed the declining drugs question? Anyway, yes.

M) Tell us something weird that turns you on.
Like how weird? idk I can't think of anything super weird, lol.

N) When did someone last admit romantic or sexual feelings for you? Was the feeling mutual?
idk I live with my fiance, it happens often. So yeah it's mutual.

O) What is something you have given a lot of thought to lately?
Babies o___o Like, not in the immediate future, but I have been warming up to the idea in recent years.

P) When did you last swallow your beliefs to avoid an argument or confrontation?
tbh it's awful hard for me to do that, it's really unusual. Although a co-worker I get along with pretty well recently was saying how much she hates Obama and I just kept my mouth shut about my own opinion. But that's fucking politics and boring anyway.

Q) Do you usually initiate hugs?
Depends on who it is. With my fiance it's usually me doing the hugging.

R) Are you a very affectionate person?
I can be, but usually no. Emotional shit isn't the easiest thing and I get super awkward about it.

S) Can you roll your own cigarettes?
No LOL

T) What are you looking forward to?
PAX East 2016!! Fuck yeah! And also the Dirty Girl mud run happening in July, omfg it's going to be so much fun I can't wait!

U) Do you have any tattoos. Do you want any/more?
Hell yes. I have 3 at the moment. I want more. At least 2 more - one on my shoulder and then a half-sleeve on my upper arm. A watercolor tattoo...those are amazing.

V) Are you mentally strong?
Yes.

W) Are you physically strong?
Yes.

X) Do you think you’re a good person?
For the most part, yeah, I try to be.

Y) Name one thing you wish you could change about your life right now.
Not having to live in motherfucking Newark.

Z) What do you usually eat for breakfast?
Lately it's been either a protein shake or "protein pancakes" which are fucking amazeballs.

Done! *jazz hands*

lol hi! Been a while since I posted, and things have changed a bit for me so I figured I should write something in here. I wouldn't call this my triumphant return to blogging or anything, I mean you can fully expect me to disappear for another... *counts* ... six months after I post this XD;; but who knows! Maybe not. I dunno.

Anyway wtf was happening last time I updated...oh right, I was doing freelance and enrolled at DeVry University. Well, that went to shit because my car decided it wanted to be a defiant SOB and it began to develop an overheating issue, and when I went to get it looked at I found out there was not only a leaking transmission but also the head gaskets needed to be replaced. Which would have ended up costing more than my car was worth...so basically I was told that I was driving a car that could expire on me at any time, and since DeVry was almost an hour away it was just not a risk I felt like taking, and so I had to drop my classes there.

It wasn't so bad in retrospect, I wasn't really digging DeVry. They had a weird way of doing things, and because I was commuting some of the classes were only once a week so if you missed one class it was like missing two weeks of a regular class @_@ Plus, despite meeting in-class we still had to do stupid online crap like forum discussions and quizzes, which I find impossible to keep up with due to all the distractions of the internet.

So yeah, I actually dropped my classes shortly after my last post. I've still been doing some freelance, working with the same company I mentioned previously, but all of these failed college experiences thus far have taught me that I should never try to take a hobby and turn it into a career. I'm sure it works out great for many people, but evidently not for me. Every time, it just starts to feel like a chore and it sucks all the fun out of it and I end up not even wanting to do these things on my own time let alone for other people. I don't know why I thought web design would be different. I still love it, but I don't want a career out of it anymore. I'm fine doing a little on the side for some extra cash, but yeah, not really wanting to do this for the rest of my life anymore.

Expensive lesson, but you can't know these things unless you try. So then, what am I doing now, anyway? Well for one thing I told myself I shouldn't aim so high. I have been trying this whole time, like I said, to turn a hobby of mine into a career so that it would feel like I never had to work. So I thought that instead, I should focus on a job that I would NOT be doing outside of work, something that is not really a hobby, and for a while I didn't really know what the hell that would be.

And then my mom was telling me that I should do some volunteer work to get out of the house and maybe I would find some job opportunities through connections I'd make with other people, so I remembered the Fort Collins Cat Rescue, the shelter I had planned on volunteering at in 2009 (and then missed the meeting because I had the flu). At that point I was also considering getting into a vet tech program somewhere, but I wanted to be sure that this time I wasn't going to make another mistake. The shelter also has a Spay/Neuter clinic and I figured if I could get some work there, I could gain some experience and get an idea of what I would be getting into. Not only that, but if I did decide that being a vet tech is what I wanted to do, the volunteering would look really awesome on my resume.

That was a month ago, and I've been doing a lot of volunteer work at the clinic since then. Things have worked out SO much better than I ever thought they would, everyone at the clinic is SO NICE and the techs are always teaching me how to do things. I've learned a lot from them so far, you'd really be surprised what they let volunteers do! o_o

My first day there, I walked in and basically one of the techs held up a thermometer to me and another volunteer and was like "Who wants to take this dog's temp?! 8D"

I did it, haha. Typically whenever I go there I can expect to help restrain animals, take temps, draw up vaccines, run heartworm tests, and help out with any miscellaneous task that they need me to do. I've also been taught how to give injections (microchips and vaccinations, although only employees are allowed to give the rabies vaccinations so I haven't done that, but I've given a distemper shot! XD) and I've drawn blood samples a few times, too.

I am never unsupervised while doing these things, of course, because I'm still learning. But everyone seems more than willing to teach me this stuff, it's SO awesome, like I said I've learned so much in just one month there. I've seen a few surgeries, too. The veterinarians don't mind when volunteers watch, and today I was watching a dog being spayed and the vet was super nice and was explaining things to me as she was doing them, it was just so cool :D

One of the techs was also telling me that if I kept volunteering regularly, like a couple times each week, then there's a good chance that I could get hired there because apparently they will teach you all of the things you need to know to work there (which I believe, for sure, LOL). She said one of the employees is leaving in August, so that might be when I could get in, which would be BEYOND awesome!!

I'm not going to put all my eggs in one basket or anything, I mean fully intend to get into the vet tech program at the community college whether I can get the job there or not, because I just want to have the entire education regardless. But I was talking to my sister (who IS a vet tech) and she said that all the stuff I've been doing/seeing is basically what the job normally consists of. So I'm pretty much halfway there already! Crazy, right??

But really, I am loving it, I enjoy being there and I'm not even getting paid for it. I find it totally rewarding and I love getting to see all of the animals that come in, all shapes and sizes. I got to hold the CUTEST LAB PUPPY EVER last week, omg his owners are so lucky I decided to give him back ;D I've seen the angriest cat on the planet get vaccinated, a dog that lost a lot of weight and had these big skin folds draped over her tail (THAT was strange o_O) and...a kitty abortion...well, they weren't kittens by any means and didn't look like anything remotely recognizable, but it was still a bit jarring to realize what I was seeing, you know?

I'm just glad that I'm not at all squeamish. I can compartmentalize pretty well, too. For example, stitches CREEP ME THE FUCK OUT but I was watching the vet stitch up that dog earlier and had no ill reaction at all, until I got home and started thinking back on it XD

So anyway, I'm really thinking that this is it, this is what I want to do. I've always loved animals, often times more than people, and I remember as a child I was always saying that I wanted to be a veterinarian. I don't think I want to be a full-on doctor, just because it seems so high-pressure and I don't want to kill an animal by accident o_O ...but being a tech is definitely something that I can do.

I'm going to the meeting at the community college in April, it's the first Wednesday of each month and I missed last month's meeting by ONE DAY agh! But anyway, it's a separate meeting to get into the vet tech program so I'm aiming to get into the Fall semester, and spend the summer semester making sure that I've got all my prerequisites done. I think I might only need the Medical Terminology course, but we'll see :3

So anyway, there's a big fat update for ya. Other than that, I've been playing a lot of Dragon Age 2~ omnomnom.

Also, I couldn't fit this in anywhere, but we did end up getting a new car. It's a 1999 Saturn, affordable and it's been okay so far XD

mmkay, I have to go and finish my sink-full of dishes. BLARGH D:


*poofs*

Why, I am so glad you asked! XD

My username, kade, is actually comprised of the first two letters of my first name (KE), the middle two letters of my middle name (ZA), and the last two letters of my last name (ER). So it's much more meaningful than my previous username. I totally don't know how you would pronounce it though! I usually just think 'kez-air' or something XD I still wish that I could have 'amano' though. Curse people who steal usernames and then never actually USE them D:

Other people should do this too, I'm curious. LOL

So, yay, I have a bike! I got on craigslist.com and checked out bikes for sale, and somebody was selling a mountain bike for $30. Granted, it has no seat, but I can easily find a bike seat around here and besides, IT'S ORANGE! XD I'm going to pick it up tomorrow, and then I have to buy a bike lock and a helmet...there's no helmet law here but I don't know why you wouldn't wear one. I so don't wanna die kthx.

On a sad note, I...RAN OUT OF DBZ TO WATCH *sob* AND SEASON SIX DOESN'T COME OUT UNTIL SEPTEMBER 16th! Well I mean, the Remastered/Uncut version that is. I pre-ordered it on the Barnes & Noble website and used the gift certificate that Megan gave me (from my last job). I'm totally into DBZ again and I wish I hadn't sold my PS2 games D: Then again, it's not like I have a TV to play them on...

Anyways, Kevin's out for a run. When he gets back we're going out to eat at this Italian place that looked good. I love Italian food mmmhm. XD

Ah, and I took pics the other day, will post 'em next time!

First post from Colorado! I've been here for three days now, I just have sort of been avoiding a post because of how daunting it seemed...I mean I guess I could try to really quickly summarize the past few weeks XD

August 1--5

These days were spent frantically packing, chilling out with my family, worrying about Kevin and his mom driving my car to CO, going to the zoo with Kathy, more family time, etc. The zoo was pretty awesome and I have a lot of pics to post, I just haven't gotten them off my camera yet! I haven't had much time to do that XD

August 6--10

Otakon! I said goodbye to my family on the 6th, which was really sad, especially when I remember the look on my mom's face. She cried a lot :( But I had a lot of fun at Otakon, there were just times that I had to remember to shove away the things that were making me sad and just have fun with everyone. I didn't really take any pics, I mean the last time I took pics they were only of hotel madness I think XDD Enough people were taking pics to make up for it though! I bought a Death Note shirt with a big "L" on it and seasons 4 & 5 of Dragonball Z (uncut and remastered!) so now I get to finally see the Cell saga that friggin' Cartoon Network never showed! The last night at the hotel, we all had a giant glow-stick war and that was effing hilarious.

On the 10th I had to say goodbye to everyone, which sucked. I managed to be all tough and crap until I said goodbye to Kathy XD Emily drove me to the airport, which was REALLY nice of her and afterward I sort of forced money at her LOL but I would have ended up paying $30+ for a taxi and I at least wanted to reimburse her for gas money, I mean it's expensive these days!

Oh god and flying all by myself for the first time? I won't lie, it's kind of scary. I had a seat above the wing, and NOBODY TOLD ME THAT WINGS WERE SUPPOSED TO BOUNCE A LITTLE, so when we hit turbulence for the first time I practically had a panic attack @__@ I was like "WHAT IF THEY BREAK OFF? FUCK WE'RE ALL DEAD!" For the first half of the flight I was pretty much barely maintaining my composure, PMS + Overall Sadness + Anxiety do NOT make a good combination. Fortunately I managed to distract myself and was fine eventually, just REALLY REALLY BORED and I ended up browsing the freaking Sky Mall magazine XD They were playing a movie but I couldn't figure out where to plug the headphones into, and I didn't wanna look like a jackass and ask. The movie looked lame anyway :P

We flew over some storms, which was actually really neat because you could totally see the gray clouds swirling around below the plane! I thought it was kind of awesome XD

So the first thing I noticed when we flew into Denver (when the stupid wing wasn't obstructing my view)? YELLOW. Lots of freaking yellow!! I was like WTF? WHY THE YELLOW? GRASS IS GREEN Y/Y?? I guess Denver is located in the plains where there aren't many trees and the grass isn't that green.

I met Kevin at the airport, which is FUCKING HUGE. I thought the BWI was big, but the Denver airport is OMG GIGANTIC. There are THREE FLOORS and an underground effing TRAIN to get to the baggage/ticket places omfg. I had to go on it to get to where Kevin was waiting.

So then we went to find the car which he had parked way out in the friggin' sticks LOL and he drove us to the apartment. We drove through the plains, where there was basically nothing, and then after a half hour there was suddenly OMG STUFF EVERYWHERE. And when we finally got to Fort Collins, I noticed that there were trees and general green-ness everywhere. Fort Collins is in the foothills where I guess there are these reservoirs everywhere so that's why it's all green and lush.

August 11--Present

So it's pretty cool here, it's hotter but not humid at all so it's not as bad as I thought. It's much drier though, and combined with the higher elevation, it's taking a bit of time to get used to. I've been noticing that it's sort of harder to breathe, and I've been really tired the past few days and just napping daily. Being in a different time zone is DEFINITELY WEIRD!! I'm now 2 hours behind everyone in VT, and one hour behind Jess XD 8 hours behind my brother, which may or may not work out to my advantage. MOUNTAIN TIME WHOO. In all, Fort Collins does remind me a lot of Vermont, just...more populated and a bit flatter. Oh and you can TOTALLY see the mountains when you look west! It's pretty cool.

I'll definitely have some pics to post soon, of both the apartment and other stuff XD

Oh and apparently we have to watch out for Mountain Lions here. We picked up a newspaper earlier tonight and some guy had seen tracks of a pretty big lion nearby where we live. I know they're dangerous, but I still kind of like them. They're cute! LOL But that doesn't mean I'd like try and pet one or something.

So now stuff I have to do:
--Get my Colorado license
--Find a job

Fun times ahead y/y?

Fuck Verizon! *thumbsdown + sadface* Dude you can't talk to those people, they put you on with a BOT when you call them and basically make you go around in circles saying the same thing over and over. I'd like to meet the guy who thought bots might be a good idea >__>

I need to call them because we haven't gotten a bill yet! Free internet, great I know, right? 'cept when they realize it and shut us off, banning our address like they tried to do last time with the previous tenants. Even though it's their fault!

Dude. But anyway. I made a bunch of phone calls today to take care of shit I've been letting sit for a while >__>;;; VSAC, NVRH (the lady actually said she'd just...ERASE...my $300+ bill o___o T__T Since now I have insurance, and at the time I'd accumulated that huge bill, I didn't). The last call I made was to Verizon but you know, my phone only has so many minutes on it and to hell if I'm going to sit there for twenty minutes waiting to talk to a HUMAN BEING. I'll call back later.

I did laundry today. It was so awesome. </sarcasm> And, a note to self: buy envelopes!! I need to mail my car payment. UGHGHGHGH. This is going to be hard! But I applied to like three jobs today so maybe it'll work out.

BUT OMG ALL THAT ASIDE...YAY MY FIRST DAY OFF SINCE LAST TUESDAY!! Guh. I don't want to do ANYTHING today. Too bad for me, huh! Dizzamn. Well I have the weekend off anyway, I'll do fun things then. Or I'll just sit around and relish in the laziness x3

Kevin's parents are supposed to be coming up tomorrow, I gotta call my mom to make sure things are taken care of with the couch. We're getting a couch this weekend!! Hurrah. Guests will actually have something to SLEEP ON now @_@;; Although, the carpet isn't THAT bad...

Gugugughh hmmm. Okay, I have to get going. Must make it to PacSun today. I don't usually shop there but my brother had 3 $25 Pac Loot cards and since he can't use them since he's in boot camp now, he gave them to me before he left. I can use ONE, but you have to spend $50 to get the $25 off, and I'm not willing to spend more than that, so I'll see if I can give the other two away before they expire on 9/1.

Anyway, that's it. Not much interesting in the life of me, except for now I am OBSESSED with Prince of Tennis, to the point where Kevin has insisted that he will only answer to the sound that a racket makes when hitting a tennis ball -______- Why do I date him... :P



P.S. Anyone know where I can steal download a version of Nightwish's "Amaranth" that DOESN'T have that annoying guy in the background going "YOU ARE LISTENING TO THE NEW NIGHTWISH ALBUM BLAH BLAH BLAH"?? I hate that guy ;____;

Okay anyway, how 'bout a real entry? Right. So I had an awesome-tacular weekend beginning Thursday afternoon when I left work at noon to go to my graduation ceremony. I had to be there at 12:15 because it started at 12:30, and well, I got there 12:30 after scrambling around the house trying to find shoes to wear. I ended up borrowing something from my sister (actually the whole outfit was hers, LOL).

Anyway, got the ceremony over with. Kevin was there, so afterwards I met up with him and Keith and eventually Kathy and we all hung out for a while, then I went with Kevin to B-town since I had my last class there on Friday and didn't have to work that day so might as well spend an extra day there. Friday evening we headed home, after I kicked the ASS out of that Photography class (I definitely got an A, unless they do that retarded 'P/NP' thing that they sometimes do...which is all well and good but I'd rather have a number kthx, it matters when it's something I actually put effort into!)

Some of Friday night was spent at Kathy's while she wrapped presents that Kevin bought for people, then we watched some weird shows that I don't remember the names of, and when it got late I went with Kevin to his house. Stayed there overnight, and Saturday Kathy came over and we all went to Burlington to shop some more. THAT was a long day, but fun :3

Sunday we didn't really do much, just hung out for most of the day, and then MASTER KYLE came bearing gifts of whimsy >3 Much love to him, he got me Dane Cook's Vicious Circle DVD! <3333 (which I watched today, it's made of win and awesome :D) Then everyone decorated the tree (LOL @ Kevin's retarded candy cane...cute XD) whilst watching Clerks 1 and 2, and many pictures were taken that I must get my hands on at some point...

XD so I pretty much lived at Kevin's for the weekend. I had fun though, that's always fun. I doubt I'd get sick of him but I wouldn't want him to get sick of me, LOL. So Sunday night they all KICKED MAH BITCH-ASS OUT after Kathy VIOLENTLY HAD HER WAY WITH ME in a few pictures...

And here I am, yay. Work today was nice because Sharon was NOT THERE. She will be tomorrow though. JOY JOY, oh everlasting JOY. Well it's not so bad, I just tune her out, really. Oh, my foot is asleep, don't you hate that?

'kayyyyy well that's all I gotta say. Things are going so damn well >3 I'm looking forward to next week since I get three days off in a row again, because of Christmas, BOOYAH! And I got nearly ALL my Christmas gifts taken care of, save for a drawing or two, no biggie.

Alrighty, I've droned on long enough, I'm out. FRY MAH HIDE! ;D

Sooo. The movie totally didn't happen last night. Apparently they decided they were going to show The Break-Up on SUNDAY at 3 instead, and they movie they were playing last night was some Goonies movie. Well I definitely can't see the Sunday showing because I have to work at 3. URGH. Guess I'll just have to wait until it comes out on video. Oh well, Kevin said he wanted to see it too so maybe I can watch it with him when it does come out.

I still haven't gotten a phone call from the lady at ACE Hardware UGH THE PHONE JUST RANG AND IT WAS ONLY SOME GUY AT HERO STUDENT LOANS WANTING TO TALK TO MY FATHER AJSDSKL; Dammit >_< I need money! I mean, I have money but the thing is, I don't want to touch the stuff in my savings account. HOWEVER, by tomorrow I'll have three checks to cash (two from Price Chopper and my last check from the college, which I'm hoping arrives TODAY so I can make my car payment...because I have to think about how much gas will cost me since my tank is about empty, OH but prices went down a smidgeon! $2.87 last I checked! *boogies*)

Anyway, to sum it all up:
--My class starts tomorrow, meaning I finally get to see my bf >__> (but the camera I need hasn't come in yet...)
--Financial Aid seems possible after all! :D
--Still job-hunting, with apparently no luck so far ;_;
--CAN'T AFFORD SQUAT, want iPod T_T
--Joey moved out on Sunday, he's got his own apartment in Manchester now (with roomie, of course) Mannnn I can't wait until I can have one too...but I'm very poor right now. OMG EMO.
--...I really need to dust off my keyboard ._.
--Looking at all the stuff on DA really makes me inspired to draw. But I probably won't.
--I'm seriously thinking about getting into web design instead of english. Or maybe not instead, actually I'm thinking more along the lines of majoring in web design and minoring in english/writing. It doesn't hurt to try after all and I'd really like to learn more about web design. I've been self-taught so far, and it's something I'm really interested in. That would be starting next fall, and I still haven't decided on a college but I know that I want to go to one far enough away from home that I can't live at home.

Ahhh my nose itches...allergies...I might actually be allergic to the dog O_o But if I am, oh well. XD Anyway time to do something semi-productive.

( Collapse )

OMG WTF IT'S FUCKING HOT IN HERE. It got to like 94 today, that is MADNESS because WE HAVE NO A/C. A/C, what's that? Some kind of new-fangled technology? LOLZ. Yeah I tried to take a nap after work (well after hanging out with Kevin for an hour) but it was so damned hot and stuffy that I just couldn't do much except drift in and out of sleep for like a couple hours, I don't even think I slept that much. Mostly what I did was lay there and sweat @____@ I would've slept better in my car, at least there's air conditioning in THERE! UGH MAN I HATE THIS WEATHER at least tomorrow it's supposed to be cooler and with scattered thunderstorms, although we most likely will not get said thunderstorms because every time they predict thunderstorms WE NEVER GET THEM. DECEIT.

Soooo what's new...it's been a while since I updated. Things are going fine with Kevin, it's been about two weeks since we've been dating (got together on the 4th, which is kinda cool I think, lol) and DAMMIT COULD IT BE ANY STUFFIER IN HERE? Also, I'm hungry and I've had the munchies all day, GOTTA STOP SMOKING POT ;p ...but I digress.

Let's see...work's been workish, same old stuff there. One of the housekeepers managed to thoroughly piss me off this morning. If it wasn't for lack of sleep and extreme humidity (those two things combined make me EXTREMELY AGITATED), I wouldn't have been such a cantankerous bitch, but alas there was much hate-age for about a half hour before I finally calmed down after getting some caffiene into my system @_@ And I was energized for most of the day after that, but now it's started to wear off.

Oh man I was trying to nap earlier and I don't know why but I kept having to get up, probably because it was so freakin' hot, and I'd be all disoriented and dizzy. Good thing I drank enough liquid today. Heat strokes are no fun at all :p

Argghhh I wish it would cool down ;_; Summer is NOT my favorite season. Summer is too hot and winter is too cold; I like a comfortable medium, like spring or fall. Not too hot and not too cold either, PERFECT. Plus the scenery is very nice as well.

OH WTF, 9:30 already?? I'm gonna get to bed early tonight, probably after dropping Shady an e-mail and catching a cold shower to cool the hell off. I HATE WEATHER THIS HOT. WHYYYYY.


Edit: Wow my mom's friend's daughter is having a baby. It's weird cuz I mean we were friends when we were younger, she's a year older than me but we never talk anymore. She just got married last year too. I don't understand peoples' need to procreate so early in life. WHY would you want a child when you're that young? You have a kid and then that's the end of your fun life for about 20 years, and after that you're too old to do the things you liked doing when you were younger. I just...don't get it @_@ I mean yeah I understand that some of these kids aren't exactly planned, but a lot of them ARE. I guess if all you want to do with your life is have a family...hm.

I don't even wanna think about having kids until I'm 30. I wanna travel and have fun and not have to worry about being responsible for another life (besides I'd probably make a terrible parent! LOL) Plus the world is overpopulated enough as it is, why contribute? My sister was watching HGTV earlier and there was this show about a family with 16 children who were looking to move into a bigger house. WTF. SIXTEEN CHILDREN? SIXTEEN. You gotta be one richass motherfather to afford 16 children AND a new house @___@ FREAKING INSANITY why would you want 16 brats running around? And I think they had another on the way. Jesus as if the world isn't cramped enough already. I can't even fathom ONE kid let alone 16, my god...

Anyway, yeah, my little tirade of the day. ^^;

Wow I haven't updated in like ever. Like a week kind of ever. And jesus christ it annoys me when people feel like the have to slap the keys as hard as they can when they're typing >< ZOMGEE IM TYEPIN LUK AT ME, HURRRRRK.

ANYWAYS. My birthday was pretty cool, hung out with peeps and had a good time :D My parents bought me alcohol which I haven't even touched yet LOL. It's like when am I supposed to drink that? WHENEVER I WANT. LOL whatever. I don't feel any different for being 21, it's just another number.

OMFUCKGEE I FINALLY HAVE A TABLET ASDFKJL; K Crew pooled together and bought me one so now I no longer have anything to angst over XD;; It's so hard to get used to though, I mean I can navigate and stuff with it just fine but HOW ARE YOU SUPPOSED TO DRAW WITH IT AND NOT HAVE IT COME OUT ALL SQUIGGLY? Anyone got some advice for a total tablet n00b?

And my sister bought me flowers ^_^ and alcohol LOL, though she had to have my mom pay for it. Plus she got me some nice shorts and a shirt (wearing the shorts right now, I definitely needed a pair XD). Lesseee...I freaking finally got to see the next few episodes of Midori Days because Jess bought me volume 2 LOL I'm sure Kathy remembers my angsting and whining every time we went to Best Buy and it wasn't there XD OMG IT WAS DRIVING ME NUTS THOUGH.

I seriously have the best friends ever, you guys all rock so hard <333

OMG and Matt has just fueled my Trigun re-obsession by buying me the freaking RPG book thingy that I saw in Barnes & Noble like LAST YEAR and angsted and whined because I didn't have the money to buy it and the next time we went there it was goooone. I'm surprised he remembered I wanted it! I mean it was like a year ago! Anyways that book is the shit, it's the freaking encyclopedia for Trigun. Extensive episode guides and character biographies for EVERYONE IN THE FREAKING SERIES plus enough pictures to make my head spin into happy-fangirl-frenzy mode. It was like made as an information source for RPGing but I will never use it for that. I didn't even know people made games for Trigun LOL! Now my life is complete, I have that book and also the art book Kathy got me for Christmas :D ZOMGEE OBSESSIONS.

I freaking love art books LOL. So far I have two; the Samurai Champloo one and the Trigun one.

So yeah anyway, had a great birthday! Would've been enough for me just to hang out with friends, seriously but presents make me happy too XD

Annnd let's see, what else...not too much has happened. We've been going to visit the puppy and taking lots of pics, though I didn't get any on my digital camera because I forgot it so I have to wait for the pics to be developed before I can post his cuteness for all to see! :DDD HE IS SO CUTE. And he's so LOVEABLE, he loves to cuddle. Last night I was holding him for like a half hour and he was falling asleep in my arms. Of course he weighs more now that he's 5 weeks old so my arms were getting tired XD He's really big for only 5 weeks. Out of the three black males, he was the largest so we picked him cuz we wanted a big goofy dog. I LOVE BIG DOGS. I don't see why people like little dogs, I don't, they're all so freaking hyper-active. If you want something that little, why not just get a cat? Haha. The people we're getting the puppy from have this little terrier with pointy ears that was like running all over the place and jumping all over people. Bleh I just don't like little dogs XD

So today I had my science exam which I think I did okay on, at least I HOPE. I studied for it and I feel like I didn't do badly, so hopefully I didn't. I was really hoping it'd be sunny out because I wanted to freaking tan dammit >< IT WAS NICE AND SUNNY AT 8 AM, WHAT HAPPENED?! NOW YOU GIVE ME WEATHER THAT'S ALL CLOUDY AND BLEH.

Whew ok.

Anyways I should probably try to update a little more so these posts don't have to be so long. Hahaha. OOH we went to the Drag Ball over the weekend (population: us, + a handful of other people) which was fun, took a bunch of funny pictures so expect a pic post real soon! :D

SO. Ok the bitch is here to drag me away to get smoothies, so I'm out. ♥
