Hey, isn't anyone going to post me?

Work wasn't so bad yesterday... but I discovered that the fuckers scheduled me to work on sunday! And I thought yesterday was my last day. And now they've called and want to know If I can work tomorrow. I mean, I probably should, but I REALLY REALLY don't want to. Shucks.

Have spent the morning talking to new roomie on AIM. She's such a blast, I really can't wait to move in this year. Hee hee, have already made funny decorations for the door: "Wanted" posters. If I figure out how to upload stuff, i'll post the pictures on my blog. Wonder if that would work. Not certain. They are hilarious, however. Have sent them off to all my friends to laugh at. Hee hee--the idea came from my roomie warning me about one of her guy friends who wanted to get it on with her and two of her other friends....so she said she'd warn him off. Me being...me, I offered to bring one of my waterguns to school to ambush him if he got any ideas... Which lead to the idea that we would be the "Watergun and waterballoon toting, ambush-inclined Room of Amazons of Six North." Which led, of course to the madness of wanted posters. ha ha ha

To bad I deleted the conversation, or I'd put excerpts up here. Nuts. Hee hee. After I go wash and sweep the patio, I'm going out. wonder if my roomie would consider jointly buying a refridgerator. Hmmm. I'm tired of being trapped at home with no transportation. That's for the birds! hmmm. Where shall I go? Ehhhhh. Laterz.

Oh, did I mention that I had been to the library on wednesday? or was it yesterday. Hurray, new books to read, due the seventeenth of september!

*scurries off industriously*
BYEEEEEEEE!

Man, i have caved in and bought sorority shoes. Reefs and of course, puma's. don't care if they aren't EXACTLY the color they want--who gives a fuck?!?! They're the right size and style. Whatever. Huzzah. Have talked to all homies recently. Good news...Sherri is thinking of rushing this year!!! YAHOO! Go kappas! shit, forgot about tyler's new cell numero, and called a wrong number. How embarrassing. I think i've got it right. I'll call her before work today. I leave at three to go to work. My last day of work. I'm praying they won't call me to come in any other day. Because I won't. Haven't seen her online once this summer. Nutso.

Hey! What funnnn: big sister bridget has started her own blog. Wheee! have decided blogging is far to much fun for her sanity to resist my insanity, i bet. It's right here: http://thisgirlslyfe.blogspot.com/ What a blasto! Let the madness infect all who know me!!! MUAHAAA HAA HA HAA HAAAAAA!!!
*hides furtively*

eheh, who, me? Am now excessively poverty stricken, but happy. Can't wait for the next month to begin...Hurry UP! Got my sailing schedule today. My god, I'm going to go InSANE. Every weekend in october and november is taken. And I haven't even got my sorority schedule yet. DAmn, Damn, damn. and I HAVE to get a's. eeeeeeeeee! *runs away screaming*

gods help me. I really don't want to go to work today. Siiiiiiigh. I work until.....(dang, don't know, hold on a sec) 1030..FUCK. could someone rescue me? please? Ah well. Stuff to do.

Laterzzzzzzzzzzz. (sobored!)

Monday, August 25, 2003

Oooooh, got so much done today! (for summer, ok?) Got another mad email from the sorority, detailing what to buy for rush.... Oh, my poor pocketbook. Went to Biglots for plastic organizing bins, no more mess! Got fancy dress, another pair black pants... new orange towel for computer cover, black paper to write on, stamps for lil sis? blah blah blah....CUTE birthday wrapping paper with froggies on it! Hooray!

And, Shampoo. Am going to wait until go back to sorority to die hair again...darker red this time? Then can use other "color safe" stinky nice shampoo. Love Krystle, was talking to her on im...called bridge and julie about the whole puma and reef shoes thing for sorority...man, I am gonna be SO poor.

Maybe krystle is right: renouncing all my worldly possessions and becoming a buddhist monk WOULD be easier than all the crap I'm going to have to move to my Dorm room.... BUT, i'll have much less crap than last year!!!

Having a cell. Marvelous. Useful. Lovely! Must go call tyler....tho' 'tis late. Ah well. Had a marv. day, since I didn't have to work: got up, cereal and cuppa tea, whacked and edged back lawn, took shower, had house to self until 130...jules and dad went on pick-a-part adventures in Pomona, and came home with sunburns! Ha HA! Spent morning on web, reading, surfing, goofing off. Turned it off, finished reading "Triss" by brian jacque; late evening turned on comp again to contact sorority.... A lovely day.

now, will go fix straps on fancy dress, get drink of water, and go to bed! G'night! Tag me!

Sunday, August 24, 2003

Hum. it is late. And I am tired. And I think I have a solution to my "early move-in problem"... I'll be helping out on the move-in days. So, I move in on tuesday...I'd better email the sorority to tell them, but i'm too tired, and my eyes hurt. (eventhough I'm wearing my glasses). So, bed, and I'll do it tomorrow....oooh, gotta see when I'm working too. nuts. bye now~!

Wednesday, August 20, 2003

I feel I must offset the inherent grouchiness that made me post my last blog. Despite having to go work at the evil D empire later today, I am having a lovely day. Mom went off to have coffee with one of her old friends, and I had a peaceful morning--all by myself!! Ah, peace and quiet. How I've missed it. AAAAND, I got to watch the second Inuyasha movie on Jules computer. =D hee hee hee! Don't anyone tell her. Ah, watching Inu/kag fluff makes me sooo happy. Gwan, girl, kissim! w00t!

I finished catch-22 last night. I think that I'll have to buy my own copy: it's such a good book. Oooh, got new cell phone in the mail yestereve, and just called Julie and Heather to let them know the number. Now, if only I could get myself to remember my OWN number... but no, brain has short circuited.

Wish I was in school already. I'm craving meat, and they always seem to have a good supply in the dining halls. That, and the intellectual boredom is going to kill me after a while here. I'm trying to substitute peanut butter for meat. Seems to work, a little.

I finished my jacket, and now, I should probably cut out the rest of my kimono project and start sewing. I chose black for the rest, since I couldn't match the tint of blue that the cat fabric was. Oh well.

And now, I'm eating sliced bagels with boysenberry preserves and cream cheese and butter on them, and drinking? You guessed it: mint tea. You know me FAR too well. Tea is so relaxing. It's not just the drink itself that tastes good, it's the having to sit down and take a break to really enjoy it.

No luck on my job search, but I posted my resume's online at the bruin website. Hope somebody has something for me! Maybe something at that smoothie place in Ackerman. Oh please, oh please! Now I'm really worried about the whole cell phone thingie. Damn. No money, and I have a cell phone to pay for. It's like living in a hole that it steadily getting deeper. AUGH! Must not use phone! Must....not.....use.....PHONE!!!

Starbucks didn't call me. I can only conclude they don't need me. Oh well, I'll still be applying to the one in LA. Hey, it's a job, right? Man, I'm such a desperate hick. Time to go eat my bagels, read fanfiction, and take a nap before work!
Ta-ta now!
(ooh, and daydream!)

HURRAYYYYY! Julie Emailed me (what a dear!) and I feel immeasurably better. Hmmm, that's the word for the day. I just had to write her back:

Julie~
I'm sure my dorm room will be madness incarnate, or at least my side of it. I'm sure that it'll be a respite though.... Unfortunately, I still haven't had any luck contacting my future roomate. Shucks. Oh, and I dunno what you define as normal....with me and all. =D However, tea and cookies will always be handy if you need them!
Thank you SOOO much for letting me know about the whole craziness thing. I was having a sort of bad day, and your email cheered me up immensely. That, and some good purging at my blogsite. (remember, the one I was always making you late with? Well, its up and running!) http://Xc3ll3nc3me.blogspot.com
Let the madness REIGN! and let (please, oh PLEASE) school begin again!
cheers, ciao, and cya soon,
Elaine

hmmm. maybe I should go get a cuppa tea.

I think I will take my own advice on that one, and with that, off I toodles. As my IM profile says;
Currently Engaged in a Desperation-induced search for rich bachelor to marry....

....or a job. Whichever comes first!

Julie's stupid quote of the week: "WHAM! ....awww, fuck. Not again!"
(her hitting the fan in the hall~ha ha!)

I must be turning into harry potter. I think Summer Sucks. I work all day indoors, and do nothing else.

The good news? I have cool Blog-ness.

Oh, and the reallllllllllly cool part? I took out the trash, and no more mum the terrible bugging the SHIT otta me. WHAHOOOOO!

Fcuk you peeplz. Nobody has even TAGGED me. And here I thought people would actually read and be amused by my little blog spot. No love, I tell you, no love. And since you didn't tag me, I hafta tell you where I got the xc3ll3nc3me idea: Pure Dilbert-inspired madness...and a large cup of tea. (In the dilbert cup)...

Wrote julie an email. No response yet. Maybe I should call her and see whassup? And I wrote everyone a really long amusing email, but no-one has replied to that either. Not even Krystle, which is kinda wierd.

Oh, and the fuckers at disneyland made me work later on saturday, so I couldn't sneak of to santa barbara to see phil's play like I wanted to. God damn, I don't care WHERE i work next summer, as long as it's not at disneyland. I'm going to BEG to get anywhere out of the country...maybe costa rica or wherever. After i finish this, i gotta go find a job on campus to apply for, so I can pay for my cell phone. Bloody money. It goes like water/sand and you can never have enough of it. Right through the fingers.

One good note for the day (not too many): have almost completed jacket, except for buttons and button hole.

Mom has been emotional wreck today. Maybe she's getting her rag or something. Jesus, putting up with her harping all day long is bad enough, but now i'm technically an "adult" her defensiveness bugs the heck outta me. I'd better go take the trash bin out to the curb, just to shut her up. Eeeesh.

I went and diddled with my new tagboard settings. Of course, it took me a while because i forgot my login.... and so i had to wait for it to be emailed to me. However, it's all good, since it's pretty freakin' cool. whahoooo! I luvs my bloggie! And my taggieEEE!

God, got the BIGGEST freakin' email from Devon (sorority sis) today. I think my brain's gonna pop, because i haven't a clue what to do about it. Guess I'd better tell Disney that I can't work as soon as august starts. Damn. I'm busy for the WHOLE bloody month of august, it looks like.

Does this make sense to anyone? Here:
Monday September 8 – Friday September 12: FREE...sort of. Due to finals
for summer school and the many girls who really need to work, there
won’t be any mandatory things this week. You can study for your finals,
and work work work work work, because im gonna need you full time the
next week. However, if you are in the skit, this week will be spent
learning, practicing and mastering the skit because you will not have
more than a 2-3 hours to review it the following week. I will contact
each of you personally to let you know if you are in the skit. Those
chosen for the skit will be chosen based on availability. However, yes
there is a however, everyone is expected to do 2 things during this
“free� week. You must complete 8 hours anytime you want (morning,
midnight, whenever) to help with decorations. So somehow you can fit this
into your work, school, whatever schedules. This number will probably be
reduced depending on how fast the decorations get done, but plan on
around 8. The second thing you will have to do is sign up for a 45 minute
appointment with Jackie and I in which you will try on each day’s
outfit so we can make sure everything fits correctly, etc. If you do need
to go exchange or purchase something you will have this week to get that
done, because there won’t be any time the following week. So for those
not in the skit, basically you will be free this week except for a few
hours of arts and craft time, which is completely up to your schedule and
a 45 minute appointment which you can decide on so that it fits in your
schedule. Those in the skit you will be excused from the 8 hours of arts
and craft, so you’ll just worry about the practices for the skit and
we’ll fit in your outfit appointment. After I contact all of you for
the skit and get a sense of your schedules for that week, we’ll figure
out when would be good to hold practices.


Yeah. I'm so confused; the whole stupid email is like that. Ah well. Have emailed Julie, perhaps she'll let me crash on her floor in my sleeping bag for some of the time...This is gonna be nuts. And you all thought sorority life was a big parrrrteeeee, didn't you? HA.

Why do I get the sudden sensation rush is going to be like a circus, and I'm one of the flea-bitten-harried animals performing in it?

Work sucked today. It sucks every day, even if I'm in Cafe, where I like it...marginally. I think this may be the last year for disney. Yes, sirrree. You suckers can go to HELL! And I'm working tomorrow and saturday. Whatta week!

Fuck fcuk. must go plan out diminishing summer fun. I believe I've got a jacket to make and a kimono to finish, and only two weeks to do it in! ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRG....

I wonder if anyone's figured out what the inspiration for my blog name is...would somebody tag me, huh? Just so i know it works....

MUAAAAHA HA HAHAAAAA! I have finally figured out how to alter the html code on my blog... And much madness will follow, with all sorts of good stuff in store...must go now, things to diddle with!

Ha HAAAAAA! I feel like a magician pulling a big white fluffy bunny out of the hat.... I have finally completed one of my childhood dreams: I have installed my little "pond" in the backyard. Actually, it's quite lovely. Even mum and Jules had to admire it. Dad helped me set up the power (haven't rigged it for solar yet) and offered to get me some snails and pondweed to put in it. Right now, the fountain and the filter are merrily pumping away. I haven't got anything in it yet, but I'm hoping fish and a plant, at least. Wouldn't that be lovely!!! (Now I sound like that girl from My Fair Lady).... Oh my! And all that after a visit to walmart to find a filter/pump and gravel and stuff.

I didn't have to work on Monday and tuesday. I think that It's time to move on from Disney. I'm beginning to get rather tired of taking shit from people there. That, and I'm tired of closing shifts at Cocina Cucamonga. That'll teach me to fill out a preference form for closing shifts. Damn, damn, damn. I'm crossing my fingers that starbucks will give me a job... If I knew there'd be so much drama, i'd have transferred from where I work. ARRRG. Frustrating. People are such a pain to get along with sometimes. Maybe I will become a hermit someday: me and my books. AND my computer. Can't live without that. I think that my starbucks interview went really well (albeit quickly....is that a good sign?) and I really liked the guy who interviewed me...daniel, I think. I rewarded myself afterwards by going to the ICING and getting myself new earrings. Hurrah! Don't tell anyone, though, ok?

Hm. Clear nailpolish on my nails needs reapplying. Just sent off an email to Jen. I love jen, she's great. I miss her from sixth grade when she moved. Both my best friends moved that year; jen and amanda. I try to write to them both a lot. (though i'm not so good about it.) The best part is that I have MANY good friends. I like having lots of "best girlfriends". All of them are such marvelous people; like julie, heather, bridget, lauren, sarah, sarah g., krystle, sherri, tyler, rachelle, angelica.....alll of them! So sad that I only hear from some of them once in a while.

Hum. That makes me sad. maybe i'll go medicate my melancholy with a good helping of ice cream with chocolate sauce and whipped cream!!
Ta Ta Now!

Monday, August 11, 2003

Hum. Have been a very boring person these last few weeks. Reading a lot of books from the library...finally reading catch-22...marvelous book. Renewed the ones I hadn't read the last time...

Discovered that I have ANOTHER (eeeeeew, grosss!) plantar wart on my right foot, now. Am medicating the evil little sucker to death. DIE!! DIE!!

Not much work on my pond project. Must go visit ebay.

It has been SO hot and muggy here. I'm not enjoying this summer much. Too muggy. I'd rather have it hot, and not muggy. Bleah. That, and it's grey and cloudy today. Added on that, I haven't had the best couple of days at work this past week. I've had to put up with bitchy Monica O. taking out all her problems on everyone. If I work tomorrow, I'm going to ask for Cafe shifts, instead of Cocina. I'm sick of putting up with her shit. NO MORE BEING A WHIPPING POST, DAMNIT! And it ain't just me: she treats everyone like they're idiots. It's really grating on my nerves.

Have not heard from any of my friends. How depressing. Not a peep out of heather, julie, krystle, angelica, or anyone else. One good note: I talked to my big sis last week over the IM...she sounds like she's having "fun" at the summer session of UCLA. Oh, and sarah goo wrote me a few emails...i've written back too. That's about it. Hmmm. Maybe I'd better call peepz and see if they want to do something this saturday.... maybe go see Phil's play in santa barbara? Hey, what an idea!

That's it, I'm turning the comp. off. It's too damn hot to sit in here. UHHGGGG! Too hot to write too.
