Haha
It's 4:36am.
I slept at 10 and woke up at 1ish
I woke my brother up..eck.

I spent 45 minutes watching mariah ekkk.
I want to call jon but i know he'll be mad haha..
i've done it before...well it wasn't this early...and even then was he mad at me.
Chels i can sell you my mastering physics text!!!

Anyways...tty soon

merry belated christmas :)

hey guys

i hope you all had a good yesterday. i went over with my family to my aunt's house for dinner. was alright. i fell asleep there though so i'm not really tired right now.

you guys going boxing day shopping? i want to just for fun... i don't really need anything though. dan and i are going downtown i think later just so we can browse. not to draw attention away from you and jon, lily, (half sorry :( ) but just as a side note, today's dan's and my one year anniversary :)

emm... yeah. so i didn't get many presents this year... mainly because i didn't actually want anything, really, but i got some money.. which is good, because i want to go buy my school books soon :) yay books!

so... i will give you guys a call either later today or tomorrow (i'm gonna be out in the morning for breakfast and dt shopping and out for dinner with family). we can do something if you want, though i'm not super enthused or anything.

anyways, i hope you guys had a good day yesterday and got what you wanted. i'll see you guys soon :) good luck with any potential deal-seeking today!

-chels

Merry KRISTMAS

Our one month went fairly well.
It seems like that happened a long time ago even though it's only been a week.
I celebrated jon's birthday with his family on the 24th.
It went fairly well if i say so myself.
Everything is good so far.

Merry Christmas to you all..
And Chels, happy birthday on the 26th!!! <3
Call me up.

Happy Christmas Eve Eve...

how is everybody? Haven't seen most since Aaron's party, which was taboo-rific in my opinion :) How did the second one go? i didn't get the news in time, otherwise i would never have passed at old junkfood and more taboo. But anyhoo, Chels: the thing on the 16th (doo doo doo) was not that much fun (doo). But i made a spiffy bag to put your spiffy present in, so you're gonna be spiffed out when you see it. Btw, the minuit you have some spare time, give me a call, i have to hang out with you before the new year comes.. Aaron just cause i steal colours doesn't mean i'm a bad person...colour stealers have feelings too, you know...Okay, Lily how did your one month go with John (don't need to go into details..) i send you both my good thoughts. Merry Christmas to all.

Ann

brrr...

*cough cough* dammit... i need to go to the doctor :P stupid breathing.

anyways, aarie, sorry i couldn't make it to either of your parties :( i really am. i only had two days off between my last exam and christmas. we will do something later. really. after i clean my room. again. and again. (i've gotten into a psychotic habit of cleaning now)

so... what's new? emm... i'm working at shopper's tomorrow for the first time since a long time (a couple of weeks) and i feel weird. what else... err... well i used my two days off (mon and tues) for shopping... i got my mom a flower... thing... (i put a pic of it that i found online here) i thought it was really pretty. i also got some quesadillas (sp?) and a huge box of ribbon :) (for me, of course)

today i went to richmond centre and got cher a cute top and a starbucks gift card... and lots of bras for me :) la senza is having a sale right now, btw. get the really soft ones.. they're really comfy and are less than half price now. anyways... and shoes for me... (on sale!) and... err... orange julius. yum. i also got something for aarie.

so yeah. i feel slightly accomplished. i'm reading 1984 because cheryl and dan kept telling me to... so i bought it. i'm about half way through.

oh yeah, aarie, i did surprisingly well on my paper. thanks for your idea! you can read it if you reeeally want. i still feel like i could've done better...
oh well.
ann: how did the uhh... y'know... thing on the 16th go?

lily: tell me! :)

okay, nite

-chels

BARBEQUE WHATTTT!

Well i must say, it's definitely better than "G spot".
LOL

Sorry i can't make party numero deux.
But hope yall have as much fun as i did :D

Jon and i have a very interesting one month..
if you ask me i'll tell you but it was definitely one to remember :D

I'm spending money like crazy...
ARGH well it's the holidays...MERRY KRUSTAMASU...that's what the germans say lol tee hee.
well i'm going to meet chinese sants :D

I don't wanna be a stupid girl

No, this isn't Lily (or even colour-stealer Ann) but me, the mad scientist with the random colours. Thanks for the three of you for coming to the party on Sunday. I think I'm going to arrange a second kinda "post-party" thingy cuz I still have a lot of pop and junk food left, plus people still really want to play Taboo (remember "barbecue" Lily?!?!?) If it's this week, it would have to be on Wednesday (in the afternoon), cuz I'm going to be working from Tuesday right through till Saturday. Does this sound good with peopl? I'll also send out an e-mail as well.

Wow... they must really like you at work Chels (they are your coworkers, right?) to go and do all that for you... That was really nice of them... I can imagine how awkward it must have felt for you. And yes we all ignore your wish to leave your birthday alone but for good reason. I think you already know what it is.

So today I ran around Vancouver like a madman. I vowed that today I had to get "the" good take of my song, which I was going to be sending off to that songwriting competition that I've wanted to do since like grade 9. So I did one take of it with the mp3 player Chels gave me and it sounded pretty good so I quickly burned it onto a CD and wrote in all necessary info. All I needed was a typed lyric sheet, but my printer(s) don't have ink, and most libraries are closed on Mondays. So dressed in Lily's sweater and Annie's very metro scarf, I first had lunch with my dad and he dropped me off at a skytrain station, where I went to the Dowtown location and printed out the lyrics there. I stuffed everything in the package and was off to send it. My dad told me that because of the Christmas rush, it would likely take DAYS to get there ("there" being the radio station in Richmond) and that even express mail would take days. Not sure about anything, really, I went into the Canada Post across from the Library and lined up in this longgggg line, but it moved quite quickly. I first asked the guy how long it would take to send it normally stamped and he said a few days. Now, the deadline for submissions is Dec. 22 (this Friday). So when I heard this, I thought I was screwed. I asked him if it would be next week and he told me no, that it would be sometime this week, definately before Friday. I asked him about Express mail and he told me that it would get there tomorrow (which I still don't believe). But it would obviously cost more... like $6 more! And all that was inside my package was a CD and a piece of paper. But then I got paranoid about time and I just paid the $6 for the Express mail. And when I left, I felt so.... accomplished, like I had done something big. I was thinking that maybe this would be my big break... but I know that's too much to put faith in.

So next up I took the bus to visit Maggie at work and drop off a game that her boss wanted. By the time I got there, she had already left but i got to talk to her boss and gave her the game. I even got some cookies too. At this point it was already 3:45 -ish. The last thing in my big bag of presents was for Chels and so I went to IGA, but I was sure she wasn't there and of course I was right. I did see Josh (I think) but that's about it when it comes to people I know there. Finally, I took the 41st bus home... and found my keys. I misplaced them this morning and I thought maggie had stolen them but they were just in my jacket. So yeah... that's my day.

About the songwriting thingy... I guess I'll know if I'm in the finals when they contact me. Don't expect that to be anytime soon; they'll start playing the 4 or 5 finalists in January. I'm really excited about this. yay.....

Joanne: You're alive!!!!!!! Do you wanna come for the second party-thingy? Sorry I didn't phone you... I was going to but then work confused me and I guess I forgot....

Ann: How's your love life now, huh?

Lily: Wanna Taboo? Also, happy 1 month with you-know-who...

Chels: I'll see you soon and i'll try phoning you 2nite

That's it for now everyone! let me know what you think about the post-party and if you can come.

~~Aaron

NO MORE EXAMS :)

so today i went over to faith's house after my exam (which went horribly but it's over and i'm glad). she works with me at IGA. she's such a sweetheart. anyways, she wanted to have a mini christmas get-together. so when dan and i got there, laura and a couple other girls from work were there (as well as faith's husband... who's really really nice).

so we had dinner and were watching a movie... but in the middle, rob (faith's husband) stopped the movie (i was like huh?) and we all kinda turned around... and faith brought out this cake with a candle on it (like, those thick ones you use when you have a black out) and then they started singing happy birthday to me... hahahahahahahaha i was so stunned and confused... i felt so awkward... so i kinda stood up and slowly went towards faith and the cake (on a table... 'cause i had been on the couch) and blew out the candle and they took pics and stuff. it was really really weird 'cause you know (or you guys SHOULD although you tend to BLATANTLY IGNORE MEEE) how my bday isn't really a big thing to me at all... but yeah. it was really funny/cute of them. i honestly didn't even notice how close my bday is... 10 days. it still feels far away. (though aarie, i KNOW your bday is tomorrow. i didn't forget... i was just saying...)

and yeah. i'm really sorry i can't make it aarie. i will, however, call you (though you will prolly get my call before you read this) and find you another time.

ann: let's do something soon

lily: thank you again for the gift... though i told you not to, i appreciate it all the same *half smile*

emm... i'm shivering right now... brr.... wow it's late... i should go. i told dan i'd sleep by 2... but apparently not :(

damn work.

alright, night guys... have fun tonight (or today... i dunno how long it's gonna be)

- chels

ps- here's a preview of my new haircut... lily has already seen me but i had my hair up so i doubt she noticed... or did she??? doo doo doo

well i didn't ask..

but i know he's straight now. He told me about his past relationships (all with girls) so yeah. Btw, i wanna go xmas shopping with you guys, i'm free on fri. Aaron, dunno if lily told you yet, but i'm coming with you to the winter thingy. Anyhoo, can't think of much more to say. Oh, i really love that song "yellow", lately i've developed an infatuation for coldplay.

cheers,
Ann

I wrote a song for you, and it was called Yellow

So I'm still here experimenting with colours that I can barely see, btw, so if there are mistakes, then it's not my fault. I just e-mailed you guys about my brithday plans anm stuff... I've decided to make it on my birthday, the 18th. Hopefully everyone is okay with that... and hopefully Chels doesn't have to work. Sorry it took so long to get an exact date.

Yes Davie is a small community compared to say, Vancouver, but it's not fair to just take a sameple from there and approximate the number of gay people in BC, or even in Vancouver. What about all the closeted guys/girls? How are you going to account for them? I've only been to Davie st. this year. And if Hadn't come out, I'd still fit into the "straight" catagory of yours now, wouldn't I?And what about all the people that are currently question their sexuality? (ie. don't know if they're gay or straight or whatever). And sure, it is just a "guesstimate", but it's going to be a bad guesstimeate and your sig figs are going to be wrong... And Ms. Wilson wouldn't like that... Anyway, I guess I'll see you at the Christmas Concert 2morrow and you can say whatever you want to me there, Lily.

Chels: Do you still want to goChristmas shopping? I'm off on Friday, but I don't know if you are... last time you weren't so I'm not sure if you are, or if you are still doing exams. Does anyone want to go shopping then? ANn or Joanne?? Maybe Lily? have you guys gone Christmas shopping yet? Or are you all doing your exams?

How did it go with the asking and such, Ann? Hopefully he didn't act too strongly... I'll take your advice on asking ppl out, Chels, but I don't think that will happen for a while now. I just spent some time figuring out some stuf...

If you ahve any problems with the party stuff (Dec. 18th, around 1-2 pm) then either e-mail me or blog it. See you all soon!

~~Aaron

Okay

First off,
Aaron i know i only know one gay guy..well 2 if you could will lau..haha. I also know that there are many guys that are gay in BC...but NOT ALL. That's why i said most guys aren't gay.
Not all of them aren't gay.
If you take into account the fact that Davie is a small gay community in the lower mainland, you can guesstimate the number of people that are and aren't.
I need to talk to you in person ebcause i don't like to type but...remind me when i see you.

Ann..suit yourself. You don't even want to be friends with him so i don't see the point. Does it really matter? does it make a difference?

Chels, i actually didn't know we were that serious. I'm at his place right now. And i asked him if it was a serious relationship and he nodded. But when you say serious it sounds like we're about to get married. I mean it's not a fling or anything like that.

Chem bye BABES and Ann! Hahah

okie doke

so 2 (aaron, chels) against 1 (lily), i guess i'll ask him then..but anyhoo, i'm free on sunday, but only after one-thirty...i'll bring me movies if you want, i have Elf...and Alfie...(which by the way is not a good movie, unless the only reason you're watching it is for Jude Law's sexual magnitism, then yeah it's a good movie) okay, i gtg...sorry for posting a short blog but gotta study

ps. Aaron, no exams?!? you lucky..uh student..
ann

hahaha you guys are funny

i would never date a guy who got honestly very shocked/insulted if i asked him if he was gay. i tend to ask odd questions, and i'd hope he'd just... either say he's uncomfortable with the question or else get over it and just answer. i don't think that's too much of a personal question... i just (in this hypothetical situation in which i'm evalutating whether he's date-able or not) want to know if he could even potentially be into me. and if he's that thrown off by such a little thing, then i'm not interested anymore.

what if he wouldn't answer me and so i assumed that he was straight and then got really into him and asked him out and then he told me he was gay? i'd be so mad at him... :P

gangster ears? what a loser. hahaha. unless you like him, ann... then i'm just kidding and i mean, gangster ears? ooooooh yeah.

btw, aaron... i hope you know that by putting your bday on the 17th, i have half a day to shop/prep your present. unless i get dan to go shopping for me (which i actually have never done but would rather not have to consider). i have french and chem on monday and need to stay home and study (aside from work... which i've been doing the past 4 days in a row) and then english on tuesday which i am FREAKED for... then math on sat for which i need to spend the remaining three days preparing for my mathematical demise... and then when it ends (at 7pm) i guess i can worry about my aaron-dispensed demise. :(

my pic "analysis" was more of me being really excited and like, making random points about the pic and then following up. i didn't know it would be so critically analyzed... :(

need to shower and chem (AGAIN) byebye!
-chels

ps - so uhh... tell me again when you guys got so serious...? (lily)

pps - aaron!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i don't care if you don't ask people out but don't say you will and convince yourself (or at least me) that you're gonna do something this time and then back (or chicken) out. because that's exactly what dan did... for many months. and although i've forgiven him, like... it's not fun on the receiving end to expect something. what if you gave your customer service guy a glimpse of hope in your eyes?? your eeeeyes!
i dunno. maybe try not to resolve to do anything until you've got the facts... or at least are kinda sure you do. single? gaydar going off? he nice enough to be worth your time? (because only a select few single gay guys are worth your time) then maybe you should consider it. but before you even know if he's single, for example... i dunno. rushed to conclusions?
do you know if he's single? (i was just exampling)

ppps - not suggesting anything (seriously) but merely commenting: i think it's weird when people who met at work start going out. not like, if they were going out and then get jobs together... but if people met at work and then start going out. i just think it's... i dunno. more so for older people though... like, one of the assistant managers at iga goes out with a bakery lady... it's actually quite odd. and he'll buy her flowers and stuff and service clerks will give him crap about it and all... :| but i think it's because he's old (30s?). and he works at iga. iga is weird.

There's no such thing as a stupid question, only stupid people asking questions

As you can see, I switched colours to compensate for all the lost ones not being used by lazy ppl (Lily!... and Ann) That and I'm bored... I think Lily misinterpreted something. I don't Ann is interested in this guy... Chels just suggested that and you seemed to have latched onto that. Also, it doesn't look like he's doing bunny ears... what kind of bunny has ears on the side of its head? I think he's doing the stupid gangster thing (ie. "Peace out, y'all") And maybe he has to lean in so that he can fit in the picture. I dunno...

I don't think it's unacceptable to ask someone if he/she is gay. It may not be a normal, everyday question, but it's not exactly taboo. I mean, yeah there's always the chance that he/she will respond with the "what the hell?" kind thing/look, but if they take it as some sort of insult, that says more about them than it does about you. Furthermore, I disagree about the theory about how BC doesn't have that many gay ppl/teens. Just because you don't know that many gay ppl doesn't mean they're not there. I mean, yeah I don't really know anybody, but I know they're around. Also, just because we don't go parading our sexuality doesn't mean we're all straight. Take a look at Davie St., our little pride street. Many places dont' even have some kind of diverse village, probably something like Alberta, but that's not to say there aren't gay ppl there either. I know I could on and on and maybe write an essay about this but I don't want to bore you guys.

It looks like Sunday the 17th may be the day for my b-day party. I just have to ask Joanne and see if she's okay with it. And also try and get the day off from work, which shouldn't be too hard. I 'm thinking of qutting Futureshop soon; I think i'm getting a little bored of working there. Speaking of work and while we're on the topic of the gay theme, I think I'm gonna ask a guy out, but I know I said that before and didn't do squat. First I'm gonna ask my co-worker friend who has good gaydar (damn her!) and maybe consider it. I may even ask him if he likes guys, cuz sometimes we get to talk. And no, he isn't Marcus. He is this guy that works at Customer Service and is the same age as me.

Okay... i think i"m not gonna ask him out. Sorry... i would totally delete that but I'm too lazy and this whole thing seems like stream-of-conciousness. Then again, I've done nothing really remarkable with my life and i'm only wasting away, slow as it may be. Argh.. i wish I had a therapist.

~~Aaron
PS. Ann, I don't really care what you get me, as long as it's somewhat sentimental (and not a Hilary Duff cd)

I don't know what's going on exactly

and by that i mean Ann.
If you're interested then go for it. but i'm not going to push you in any direction except maybe to the left, where the boys bathrooms are.
If you have a good feeling then i'm for it. As long as yo'ure happy right?

Anyways, i wouldn't ask him if he's gay. Most guys in BC aren't...and why would you do that anyways?
Is it because of Aaron?
So if he is you can hook Aaron up?
I KID..sort of..

But seriously i think asking him if he's gay is kinda weird to begin with. I mean, you can do that in our circle like "hey aaron, you gay?" or even like "hey ann..what's why the man hair?"...etc
But to normal people i don't think it would be acceptable.

I've stop using colours OBVIOUSLY because everyone uses them and i'm lazy even though i just need to highlight and click.

My finals end on the 13th.
i had my bio one already. so 4 to go.

*GASP*

yay ann!!! picture!!! finally :P

let me use my super picture analysis uhh... techniques to decipher hidden feelings! :)

the picture is kind of small... where were you? some kind of mall? (RHYME... NOOO) (oakridge??? booo) well, both your heads are slightly tilted towards each other (his even more than yours) which means... that... i don't know how to put it in words, but like, you have... good feelings towards each other. he has bunny ears behind you... playful. and then if you stare a bit, you can see that your body is facing the camera but... *GASP* his is turned towards you!!! with guys, in general, that is a sign of openess... also, you guys seem to be standing pretty close... comfortable with each other?

anyways ann, stop wondering and just ask him. seriously. if he gets offended then there's something wrong with him. i've asked many a guy. including dan... several times (to his great annoyance). if the guy is like, comfortable enough with his sexuality or whatever, asking him shouldn't be a problem. here, let me show you...

"hi andrew!"
"oh, hello ann!"
"so uhh... how was ... that thing you were supposed to do last night...?"
"my psych project?"
"yeah"
"good :)"
"oh... well, that's good."
*pause*
"hey andrew?"
"yeah?"
"are you gay?"
"YES!!!" OR "uhh... no... why?"
"just making sure, that's all. don't wanna repeat of what happened with aaron..."
"WHAT?! who is this aaron???"
etc
etc

hahaha, just kidding about the aaron part.






i think... *DOO DOO DOOOOO*
-chels :)

Dirty Little Secret

So I was thinking of having my birthday party either on the 16th (saturday) or the 17th (sunday). Could you guys tell me if you guys are available on either days and which one is better, so that I could make it official. I know Chels has an exam on the 16th at 3:00-ish so that's why I'm asking if you guys might be able to make it on the Sunday. I'll probably send out an e-mail if you guys might not see this (ie. joanne).

No Ann, my (pathetic) gaydar is not "ringing off the wall". I don't even know what that's supposed to sound like, so I'm not sure. At first glance, he seems pretty straight, but because of your superior gaydar to mine, I can't help but doubt. Eh... whatever. You two look like you're having fun there...

Lily, I guess I should apologize about my whole spew last time. When I first read your post I didn't think much of it. Then I had some time to think about everything you said and I guess I kinda got a little angry. I don't know... I think I've repressed all my anger for the last several years and a bit of it got out. Anyway, sorry if that came out too strong. I hope you + Jon are happy together. Btw, yes I would like to go to the Christmas concert on the 14th, but Maggie + Bekki have already planned to go so I guess I'm going with them (they made plans like a month before). I'll see you there though!

So school is over for you guys, right? (excluding Ann) Then you got finals/exams/final exams... oh what fun... I know you've been avoiding me Lily (mysteriously appearing offline when I'm on MSN) , but I'm not gonna let you so I'm gonna phone you right after I finish this.

Uh... hmmm... i guess I dont' have anything else to say. Take care for now... and don't forget to tell me which day is good/better for my b-day. Toodles!

~~Aaron

christmas is so close i can taste it..

ok, if i don't do something with you guys i think i'm gonna burst...and it's not gonna be a pretty picture (i just had a bean burrito..) i can wallow in my own craziness starting from dec. 13, yes, all is welcome to wallow with me. btw speaking of christmas presents (which i wasn't, but i am now) aaron what do you want for your bday/christmas prezzie? i have an idea for chels, but none for you. Speaking of whom, Chels, do you like TNA? hope that didn't give anything away...alors je dois etudier, mon examen de francais est demain..toodle loo.

ps, that's guy (aka Andrew) up there. I look kinda idiotic, oh well, what are ya gonna do? aaron, don't know if you can tell from a pic, but tell me if your gaydar's ringing off the wall.

ann

aww...

aww, aarie. of course you're important to us! i really do miss you a bit and that's saying something because i hardly ever miss anyone, to be honest with you. i'm always afraid of change, but once it happens, i think i get over it pretty quickly... so when people leave, i get sad (that's why i hate goodbyes) but then like... i just kind of shrug it off like, well that's that and move on, y'know? so even if i don't miss people it doesn't mean i don't like them, etc. i never ever miss my parents (like, EVER) or relatives or most people from high school, actually. i do, however miss you! and ann too... lily? meh... just kidding. i see you slightly more often though. and joanne seems to have fallen off the face of the earth... :\

anyways, aarie, i'm sure lily never meant to be mean. she was just prolly... very... excited about new things in her life, is all. and yes, we SHOULD go shopping. very soon.

btw, aarie, you must inform me of when you plan to have your bday so i can ask for the day off (i need time ahead... iga schedules 3 weeks in advance and shoppers, 2). if you're having it and i already was scheduled to work (VERY LIKELY) then you need to tell me so i can get someone to take the shift for me.

jeffrey's bday is the day after tomorrow. i really need to go to toys r us soon or something. AHH.

aarie, you're my favorite aarie. really. :) don't be sad, please.

lily, are things okay?

ann, how are things with the guy? have you gotten a pic yet?

okay, gotta print out some stuff for CHEM

bye!

-chels

ps- i'm gonna cut my hair... prolly about shoulder length! :) i'm excited.
pps- FINAL EXAMS BOOOOOOO

...

AARON STOP BEING A WIENER.
Yes Jon does live close.
And NO you don't have to invite Jon.

Right now, i'm studying for finals.
And maybe when i wrote that post, i did assume that he was more important in my life than my friends but as i type this, i'm reassessing my values.

Jon is Jon. He is my best friend because he's the only one i really talk to.
I told him it doesn't feel like we're dating. And honestly it doesn't.

I want to go to the PG christmas concert on thursday Dec 14. Aaron, you want to come?

According to Leon, Chamber is really bad without kev..haha i kid.
But anyways, I'm not going to lose my friends over him.

A Note on Apathy

Well, well, well... if it isn't the Lily, finally coming on the blog to update us about her love life, then tells the rest of us that she's too busy with her new bf to hang out with her friends (and studying too, but then again that seems to be the very core of your life). Then again, Jon lives way closer to you than any of us (especially me) so how could you not be with him? And when you say you're too preoccupied with dating him and studying to have time with us, are implying that we're less important?? (I already know you said yes to that question, Lily) And i know part of this whole thing is that we don't see each other much anymore, and therefore get used to not having each other around, so I can figure why we would be lower on your list. But you guys know you mean so much to me in my life, so when I learn that I'm not that important in your lives, it hurts just a bit. I don't know if the rest of you feel the same, but that's me. (yes, there is a bit of resentment in this paragraph, I won't lie). Okay, enough of that.

Ann: excited for exams? I'll bet... are you free at all on weekdays?

Joanne: Where are you? (hopefully not going crazy over studying)

Chels: Chrstimas shopping next week? Maybe?

On a completely different topic, none relating to the first paragraph whatsoever..... would you be offended if I didn't invite Jon to my b-day party, Lily? Nothing personal, it's just... he's not really my friend (and no, he's not my enemy either). Also, it's not like I'm obliged to invite him or anything... Just wondering what you might think about this (I haven't made up my mind yet)

I realize I've been a little outspoken in this entry... I'm trying out this thing where I'm not constantly trying to appease everyone. Hope that's okay with you guys.

Non, je n'ai pas une vie amour. I think i'm getting close to just quitting... I mean, Lily's dating before I am... what is the world coming to?!?!

Until next time,

~~Aaron

Ps. I think I'm gonna enter one of my songs in the Canadain Songwriter's contest thingy... (the same one that Chels' cousin entered last year)

psyc is soo not my forte

i'm totally up for doing stuff, i'm free mostly on weekends, but don't you guys have exams or smthg? anyhoo my last exam is on the 12th. I heard you guys (UBC guys) don't have school on Mon. (4th), well we do, i can't see how that's fair...okay, Aaron when's your bday party, hopefully after the 12th? And Lily, welcome back, i really "missed" you there. Okays, i'm gonna go get a scone, congrats on the new job chels.

Ann

It's me

Sorry for not writing for a week or two.
But i have been preoccupied with studying and jon. we're dating now.
We began dating on Nov 18. So our one month would be exactly on aaron's birthday..haha
Hopefully you'll have it earlier aaron... :D
but yeah it's been a week and things are good.

PS Ann no offense (well maybe a little bit intended) but YOU SOUNDS LIKE A FRIGGIN PERVERT. It sounds like you've been majorly man-deprived (like aaron). I mean, i'd understsand if aaron would say soething like that but Ann...WANG ANN?

I'm off on the 13th aaron. But for now, i must study and attend to jon. You know i've been waiting for this for too long.
I'm not trying to neglect any of you..except maybe Ann...but seriously.
when you guys begin dating (excluding chels) you realize how little time you have to spend with friends. Also, Jon is my best friend...so it works too.
But yea, when you guys (excluding chels) begin to date, you will understand.
No hard feelings.

damn you aaron

at work already? you're such a poo. i'm working later today :P

ROFL HAHAHA

okay, on my last post, i signed off as "chem"

hahahaha

yes, aaron, we really must do something. if you haven't noticed, we're all just a little unmotivated. you need to be specific; give us a place and time and how long. my schedule's pretty retarded so i dunno if you wanna try working around it... if not, you guys should just do something without me *tear* it's fine. seriously. i work at IGA on weekends (fri, sat, sunday) and shopper's on weekdays (basically tuesdays and wednesdays). my shifts are all 8 hours (except some IGA because they're retarded and don't understnad when i tell them shorter shifts are a waste of my time). i may be ab... omg it's snowing! i forgot to say how pleased i am... it started yesterday night... when dan was supposed to come pick me up from work. it was so nice... today is our 11 month.

and now i feel bad 'cause i was being mad at him yesterday. :( he was being annoying... arg. alright. screw this. must call aaron. (screw chem lab. i don't know why... i always come here when prepping for chem)...

-chels

Imagine me and you

I just have to tell of a strange dream I had. Well, I forgot to mention it last time but I still remember it cuz i'm so smart... haha. Not really.

Anyway, it was Lily's birthday (again?!?!) and we were at her party, at this kinda saloon place. All of us were there, complete with presents and everything. I remembered I forgot Lily's present back at my house and I said I would give it to her next time. So there we all were, having a jolly good ol' time when a tooth fell out of my mouth (which, btw, happens quite a lot). So then I exclaimed that I could make a wish with it, and then Chelsea, who was sitting across from me, did her pout-thingy. And then I told her this whole thing was a dream and that she could take as many teeth from her mouth and make as many wishes. There was probably more, but that's all i could recall.

So your big secret was getting another job? Oh, okay then. I thought you were miraculously pregnant or something, but i guess not. Or maybe got a dog/cat. then again, I don't know why Lily would be against that. Unless she's a kitten-killer. Booo!!!

I know i'm sounding repetitive, but we should do something. And i know my birthday party is coming up, but i don't want to wait until then. I mean, we're supposed to be good friends and all, yet we only see each other through special occasions. And i know you're busy with school and studying and whatnot, but does then where do we all come in? Are we just secondary? I don't know if any of you feel this way, but i'm sure to get some backlash, mostly from Lily I expect. Whatever... i'll end myself there.

~~Aaron

yay, news!

so okay, the only person i was kind of worried about was lily but now she already knows so i suppose i can let it out... at least here... (my parents STILL don't know. i don't know when i'm gonna tell them... they're gonna find out pretty soon because it's the end of the year and they're gonna be filing taxes and whatnot...)

i got another job :) yaaay!

i work at shoppers on campus now :) (the one at ubc) and i just remembered i left a half eaten bagel in their fridge yesterday :\ eww... i forgot to take my second break. anyhows, i've been there for three weeks now. i'll get a 30% discount once all the paperwork goes through (couple more weeks? i have no idea. no one tells me anything...) and you guys are welcome to share... but you'll have to not need it urgently, seeing as i don't see you guys very often...

anyways, lily is somewhat preoccupied, she tells me. perhaps when she returns, she will share something of her personal life. perhaps not. i'm sure joanne is studying (so dedicated :P). lily is doing some too, maybe. AHHH next week is the last week of school!!!!!

okay, really should prep my chem lab (it's in a few hours... i'm skipping math :P) shhhhhhhhhh...

-chem

sing-song mood

Grrrrrr.... this is the second time typing this. I accidently somehow erased it the first time. Stupid computer.

I'll type everything out shorter... yeah you can use my discount, whatever. Ann, I won't be pissed if you use me to buy my own present, just a bit annoyed probably. Also, you may want to get me something other than CD's, as I have already bought a bunch. Unless you want to get me Hilary Duff or something stupid. That being said, I guess you can use me to buy stuff.

ooh, yeah let's go shopping sometime. I finally have money to spend for once. When are you guys free, or are you studying like Kevin Lau? (haha...) we should do something together, like soon. I'm free on Friday, if somebody wants to do something then. I guess I'll phone you guys or something.

~~aaRON

PS. Where is Lily?

do not tempt me, chelsea

god, i wanna go xmas shopping sooo badly >_< Aaron would you be totally pissed if i got something at future shop for your bday prez using your employee discount? if you say yes, then i'm joking. If you say no... then we'll talk...anyhoo, i ave zee cramps, i ave zem bad...dunno why you need to know that. sigh* back to working on my psyc project. It's the only oral proj i have this term, and i think i'm getting the jitters from not presenting anything orally for such a long time...ah well, c'est la vie...

Ann-anas

me too

i'm cold too. yeah, i recovered pretty quickly. had to... or else school would've killed me. seriously.

aaron: i forgot to ask before... we... uhh... we're allowed to make use of your employee discount, right? :) (pleease? i will extend my errr... potential employee discount to you... if... i have a job that allows for that... [iga doesn't])

ann: har har. let's go christmas shopping. you too aaron.

lily: any NEWS??????????

joanne: are you going school crazy?

all: 2 more weeks of school; less than a month to finals!!!!!!!!!!!!!

-chels

i'm cold..

i'm really cold for some reason...Chels, i'm sorry your tummy hurts (though by the time you read this the pain will probably be long gone, hopefully.) Anyhoo, i guess i could take a pic of guy...i'm sure if i said it was for my friends he'll understand..but yeah, i can't believe how many cute guys there are at SFU, i feel like a kid in a candy store :) OMG, now i've started to shiver, i'm scared...Don't know about you guys, but i'm already feelin the christmas spirit (or maybe it's just cause i'm cold..) i for one am definitely up for doing smthg once exams are over, cauz you know your social life is going down the drain once you start to look forward to playing board games at Aaron's bday party...and while we're on the subject, i have other movies than mean girls but your employee discount sounds very intriguing to me...hmm, i shall take advantage of it in the future...

oh, i heard a new joke..now..it's very grade 3 but i like it:
"What kind of bees make milk?"
(look down...)



(keep looking down...)




(just a wee bit more...)





BOOBIES!!! hee hee hee...and here comes the eye rolling...

anners
ps. fyi, aaron, my cat doesn't even like chocolate, she likes cheese..

Moody

Sorry to hear you're sick, Chels. You had a fever (the hot thingy) and the chills were just part of the package. Believe me, I had it too, about a year ago. It was such a bad feeling; with the burning and then suddenly cold... not fun at all. I can't say I had cramps though, stomach or period ones, haha. I wanted to call you on Thursday, but I figured you wanted to get some sleep so I didn't phone. No, sleep is not like being dead. If you're in a coma, that's kinda like being dead, but not regular sleep itself. Dead=no longer alive (ie. no need to eat, breathe, pee, listen to S Club 7).

Anyway, if any of you actually read newspapers, an editorial that I submitted was printed out today (Nov. 17) in 24 Hours. I feel good that I did something, something that felt worthwhile, unlike a lot of things in my life. If you happen to see one flying past you then you can grab it and look for my editorial (in the "what's on your mind?" section). The original one that I submitted was so much longer but I guess they had to edit it down to fit it in the little box. Too bad.

So yeah, the stupid PS3 came out today. We had all of 16 consoles in the store. Haha... stupid people were already waiting when I went in for work, which was at 7:00 am. Video games seem like such a waste of time. I know I'm only saying that because my mom brainwashed me when I was a child and never let me have any games, but they're just so unintelligent. Or that's what I find.

On the topic of work, I found out that Marcus is bi. He kinda just told me and I just nodded. I don't know... I can't really see myself with him. I think it would just be better if we were friends (as cliché as that is). We also got a bunch of new people, all of which seem to be incompetent, according to my other fellow coworkers. I don't know them well enough to form an opinion, but they tell me stories about the new pplz. Apparently, there's one guy that talks about drugs... like, a lot. One guy seems to take forever to put away a box of DVD's. One guy speaks of an underground city of which he plans to build (?!?!). There's also another Asian guy, but he speaks Chinese, not Cantonese so we can't gossip together. Anyway, he's actually cool.

Yeah... no love life yet. Whatever. I wanna to see a psychic or something. I think that would be cool.

Only a month (and one day!) till by birthday! Only 2 weeks till my theory exam! Oh god...

~~Aaron

ow tummy :(

so i think i'm sick.

sunday at work i started getting a really bad cough and had to try hard not to cough on everyone's food (which i somewhat succeeded at... though was very uncomfortable with for several hours)... then yesterday i had really bad tummy cramps that were like bad period cramps but i wasn't having my period (stoopid)...

so then today, at work, i was scheduled for an 8 hour shift... but i left after not even 4!!! at first, i just had really bad cramps (i had taken at least 5 advil earlier during the day) so i figured i could just "ignore" them... but then i started feeling really really really hot!!! like, i felt like i was in a sauna or something... so i was like, it'll pass... it'll pass... but it didn't and i started shaking (i kept dropping people's change) so i went to talk to the head cashier man. when i tried to explain to him how i was sick, i kept stuttering and my voice got all thick like i was going to cry... i think he thought i was having a mental breakdown or something because he just kept saying he didn't want me to be stressed... but i wasn't! and i kept trying to explain but it was too hard and i started getting chills... it was pretty scary.

so then i punched out and walked across the street to the number 17 bus (in pain) and i was so hot i didn't even put on my jacket (i was wearing a tank top and a 3/4 length tee). i got on the bus... i heard a girl on her cell saying how it was so "OMG COLD" outside... and called dan to let him know i was coming over because i didn't think i could wait to get home (10 min bus, 8 min walk... dan is about a 5 min bus and 1/2 min walk away). i started crying quietly... i don't know why... i was just really sad. i was pretty mad at myself for leaving work... for one, i need the money, two, i kept thinking i could've persevered more... that i should've stayed.

so then i got to dan's and he let me in and i just had a hot shower for a looooong time while i wondered what to do. in the end, i just had some ravioli and then slept and slept and slept for maybe 5/6 hours, then had lots of apple juice. i feel a lot better, but not fully better. i'm not hot anymore... just a bit of headache and tummy cramps left... i hope i'm better tomorrow :(


arg. still tired. i have to write a french comp and think up something to say for my english presentation tomorrow (woohoo). i kinda wanna do my chem lab as well but i think that'll take too long (estimated 3 hours for each lab)... soooooo i dunno. i think i should sleep more. then again, i have a midterm for math and a french test and an english paper due on friday so i kind of hafta get things moving along... :\ such bad circumstances :P oh well. it's weird 'cause i don't really get stressed over school anymore. it's kind of bad.

getting sick is stupid. it shouldn't be an option. seriously. arg.

okay, gonna do french then english then sleep :) i like sleep... is good.

sleep is kind of like being dead..? isn't it? :\ anyways, it's late. i keep wanting to nap but i usually don't wake up till morning once i start sleeping :P

byebye,
chels

ps- for those of you wondering (AARON), there is a big hint to my "secret" in this entry. i only realised it after i finished typing and was gonna change it, but then was like, whatever. you'll find out eventually anyways.
pps- don't think too big. it's not very crazy at all... and you guys have too much imagination for me to handle :P

Womaneater

Blue, blue, blue. Anyway, wow you guys are pigs (except Chels) for finishing candy off so fast. Lily, you have the excuse of your bros/sis (I guess) and Annie hopefully didn't feed any to her cat. Wow, what am I talking about?

What's this news you speak of? Can I know? I have guesses but they're all in my head... along with other evil things. Hey I went shopping yesterday at Metro too!! I had lunch with my dad at The Boss (sound familiar Lily?). After I went to look at games and it was fun fun fun. Especially since it seemed like I was the only 17 year old in Toys R Us alone. Haha....

So yeah.. full count is when you just count all the inventory. I don't know how many times we do it. I know we tried and failed about a month ago. Yeah it wasn't fun. Because of that, my whole sleep routine is out of whack and now I'm waking up at 12:30 in the morning/afternoon, depending on how you look at it.

Ooh, yeah post a pic of that so-called cute guy you met. Have you actually talked to him/made a conversation with him already or is he another guy you just happened to walk past and your gaydar went off like fireworks during Canada Day? Damn you and your good gaydar. At least I was able to tell that Lance Bass was gay, but then again I think everyone already knew. And also I had a feeling that Corey Margolis might be and I have received recent news from an undisclosed source that he could very well be. I'm sure if I'm allowed to say anymore so I will leave it at that.

When do I get to read your paper? I'll proofread it for you if you want. Which reminds me, Lily are you done with your paper yet? Anyway, on a completely off topic, I got Taboo yesterday and it is cool and I have to force myself not to start looking at the cards until you guys or some large group of people come and want to play. Believe me it is hard. I also got the Desperate Housewives game but I don't think any of you actually watch good shows so you can't really play (ie. Ann watches "Yo Momma"... *shakes head in utter disappointment*).

Ann: what movies (other than Mean Girls you fool) do you have? I have a bunch at my house and I've already written down a list of movies I plan to get with my employee discount. Wow... I've almost worked 3 months at Futureshop. Crazy...

Cell phones are poo. That makes Lily poo too.

Thanks for updating guys. it's always nice to read everyone's posts and it makes me laugh, which I never get enough of. By the way, I have a myspace (but I don't think any of you guys do) and I plan on going out to perform really soon and I need some kind of familiar (well not need... want) face in the audience. Here's my myspace: www.myspace.com/aaronjchan

Someone stole aaronchan so I had to pick something else. Or you can always click on music and seach for my name. You can't really do anything without signing up for an account but I just wanted to let you guys know.

So excited for my part-ay (almost as excited as Anness)

~~Aaron

PS. Haha, no finals for me!

PPS. Boo, projects for me...

PPPS. It's still not cute and it's starting to get ugly, Chels

halloween candy gone?!

no way. i still have maybe a third of mine and i gave away probably half of it in total. dan and i haven't eaten that much of it, i guess. i'm kind of trying to ration my share :)

emm... so... i'm really BLAH with work and school and what not. i kind of have news but i don't really want to tell you guys yet 'cause i think you'll get mad at me (LILY). i haven't told my parents yet. only cher and dan and maybe a couple people at work/school know... dooo doo dooooooo!

so i went shopping yesterday. i was in such a bad mood (MY SOCKS WERE FRIGGIN' WET FOR THE WHOLE RIDE ON THE 49 METROTOWN AND MY TUMMY WAS BEING MEAN). i got an umbrella (finally) and a new jacket (again, finally. i haven't actually had a jacket for the longest time. i really like it, but it was really expensive. don't ask how much (LILY) because i know you'll just get more mad at me) and a bra. it's very comfortable :)

aaron: full count or whatever? that's gross. i've never ever heard of that. how often do you do that?

lily: why did you get a new phone? just for fun? or did you want a plan or something? (hey... maybe you'll be less mad about my jacket since you got a razr (no "i")... so it kind of cancels out...) i think razrs are kind of overrated, personally. and kind of gross. but that's mostly because i think i'd break mine in a week if i got one (i've dropped my phone from shelves over my head at least 50 times. ACTUALLY.) :( and then i'd be really sad. i think... i'm going to minimize the use of my cell phone. eventually, i'll get a plan (when i'm 25ish or working full time) and keep it going for a long time but until then, try to catch me at home :)

ann: you're so stealing colors!!!! ahhhh!!! take a pic of the guy with your phone and post it here!!! pleeeeease!! :) i won't make fun (though i make no promises that lily won't... :P )

and... i know aaron's bday is first and muy importante... but just as a reminder... i told you guys it was unnecessary to get me bday presents! (JOANNE!!!!!!!) seriously. it's okay. i have more than what i need. really. i even told dan just to give money to the red cross.

aaron your bday better be muy fun! school is pooooo...

okay, guests are coming over so i must go clean up downstairs some a bit! >:| (VERY CUTE, AARON!) i will let you read my... somewhat mediocre paper when i'm done (one week). all you guys, if you really want *rolls eyes* but mainly aaron... if you want... :\ it's kind of boring. not the info, but i mean, reading it...

anyways, we should do something fun sometime!!!

-chels

the candy man can

no one's stealing any colours, sounds like crazy talk to me, chels. Aaron your party sounds so much fun, i'm looking forward to it already..yeah, i have too much time on my hands...All the games i have are lame-o...okay a game to boost your vocabulary, and i have the wheel of fortune cd-rom..Anyway, i have no advances on the love life thing, but i did meet a new guy. He's kinda cute, but i think he's more of an Aaron type of guy (if you know what i'm talking about)..I have great pride in my gay-dar, but who knows, i could have misread. So anyhoo, Aaron do you want me to bring a moovie for your par-tay? i have lots :) (mean girls, mean girls!!)
i have offically finished my halloween candy. One was opened...i didn't eat it.

Ann

;(

I ate all my candies already...
Well it has only been 10 days since halloween.
I shared MOST of it...well some atleast

I got a razir.
Trust me, that was actually the nicest phone at bell.
All the other ones were hideous...sort of like chelsea's phone he he I KEED I KEED.

Finals are coming.
Boo!

Glow

Wow... the blog hasn't been updated in almost a week. Where are you guys? I would have expected at least Lily to make some short little thing, but I guess not.

On Sunday, I was part of the full count for work. And that's exactly how it sounds; we have to count every single item in the store. First we scan it with a little scanning gun and then we double check it by hand. It was only supposed to go to 3:00 in the morning but I got home at about 5:00 (also in the morning). I think I worked 10 hours. Oh what fun it was... not.

It is weird that I've already started planning out my birthday plans? Well, too bad. I guess I just didn't have anything else to do. Anyway, it's not anything big or exciting (ie. Boston Pizza). I think I'm just gonna have a quiet party at my house and we're going to play games and perhaps watch a movie. I'm really excited about playing the games cuz I think it'll be really fun. I've already chosen to get Taboo (good game!) and Cranium (I dreamt it). If anyone has a game they'd like to bring, by all means bring it (as long as it is fun and get to laugh at losers). I've also got right now Monopoly (original one) and Scrabble if that interests people. Oh, and I thought about ordering pizza for food. How's this all sound?

Hmm.... speaking of birthday, I lost my "Some Boys Like Boys" pin about a month ago and it made me sad. I'm just throwing that out there as a possible present. (And also that "Je suis #1 magnet that was lost by a certain someone...) But I doubt any of you has been thinking this far ahead, so you can just ignore that.

I don't think I have anything left to say... hope you all aren't gorging on your halloween candy too much. I'm definitely not.

~~Aaron
PS. Chels, that thing is not cute

you guys!!! >:|

hahaha that's so cute >:|

anyways, ann, stop stealing everyone's colors... you confuse me! and lily... why do you keep having drafts?

that is all. >:)

chels

halloweenie

halloween is over, it's finally sane for me to have my christmas tree up :) So who got the most candy last night? probly chels, btw, i put the glow ring that you gave me around my cat's head, now i can see her glowing in the dark, hee hee..this morning i felt hungover for some reason, my eyes where bloodshot...probly from not being able to see all last night..btw chels, because you and lily weren't there, i was the only one to fall repeatedly on porch steps, if you were there, your accidents would have taken alot more attention away from mine. Anyways, i have nothing more to report so i'm logging off for the time being.

ann,
ps. when i said i look more like a man it was because zoro was a man, so i'm saying i look more like him!! not that- you know what, NEVERMIND!!

Estoy cansado

Hey Chels, I'm home. No need to worry about me now... haha. Now that Hallowe'en is over, here comes Christmas. Que ridiculas son las festivales, no? Ahh.... so tired.

Now I have to buy adult bus passes. How sad... i'm no longer a child. Boo...yummy candy.... grr... haha 2 zorros in one day.

Good times

~~Aaron

PS. The Prestige sounds kinda cool, Joanne. I heard Marie Antoinette was kinda meh and not historically accurate at all.

BRRR...

i'm dressing up for school today. i only have one class though :\ oh well

HAPPY HALLOWEEN guys :)

oh crap. so... where are we meeting? lily's? you'll prolly all read this too late so i'm just gonna call. arg. so tired. :( going to sleeep soon.

damn pipes or whatever the hell is going wrong are STOOPID so i can't shower here today. d says if i want i can go to the apartment in the morning to shower. DAMN IT. so yeah, i've gotta wake up early. i've a french oral tomorrow. my stupid partner is such a flake. i woke up early and got to school and hour ahead to meet her and she texted me and told me she missed her alarm but it wasn't time to meet yet so i figured she'd be like, 10-15 mins late, but instead she came 5-10 mins before class started. so basically i just did everything myself (right now, which is why i'm still up)... which doesn't really bother me. it was more that i got stood up than anything. DAMN YOOOU KIRSTEN...

aww aarie, that's SO sweet. if i had a choice btwn all my friends like, dying or me failing out of ubc... i guess i'd choose the latter :( i think so, at least. i can't really say for sure, of course, 'cause the opportunity isn't real but i really think i would... i mean, ALL my friends.

joanne: aww... you seriously need to go to the mall or something :( i'm sad and stressed FOR you...

ann: has your pumpkin rotten by now? *tear* :(

lily: m&m fairy? :
-Chels <:)

ps- not really relating to anyone or anything, but i'm applying for a cashier job at shopper's on campus. work is so crap. (IGA) well, kind of sometimes...

Say it Right

I can only imagine what Ann was listening to when she wrote her blog... I'm guessing you're also going to keep your costume a secret until the big day. Speaking of Hallowe'en, I e-mailed my teacher and he said that it was okay that I miss next class and that I'll just catch on after that. And i know what you're thinking Lily, ("I'm going to slap you so hard you'll go flying... back to school!!") but if you made choose between school and friends, friends would always win. Besides, shouldn't you know by now what school means to me? And in the likelyhood that you won't read this in time, I'll phone Chels and maybe Lily to tell you. Ooh! And I want to put makeup on (for my costume, Lily)

How are all your tests/exams coming along? Hopefully, no one is failing... and if so, not too much. I'm sorry to say I can't relate, seeing as how I don't have any exams... although I do have a term assignment due in December. December 18th, that is.

I think Marcus is straight. I came out to him in one of our conversations and he just nodded. Although he has given me a back-rub once and called me a "stud muffin"... haha. There's this new guy at work and everyone dislikes him... immensly. He keeps changing the whole department and giving his ideas about how the store would be better if everything revolved around his ideas. Also, I think he is slightly homophobic... he thought that bisexual = gay. And when I told him what bisexual is, he said that was gay. So then I told him not to say that so much cuz normal people would get offended and that seemed to make him shut up. Did I mention that he's 16? Yeah, that's right. I wonder... if he knew I was gay would he quit? Probably act differently towards me, that's for sure. He's kinda disturbed... he keeps talking to himself and making sound effects... and mocking the songs on the stereo. At least he says he doesn't care if he gets fired.

That Canada Post issue sounds stupid. Yeah, they aren't allowed to just not deliver/censore stuff, but if it goes against human rights, then I think that's an infrigement on the Charter (even though sexual orientation is not listen under the protected rights and freedoms). Am I getting too political? None of you took Law... although Socials may have covered it (Mr. Sankey 4 ever!)

I really want to watch a movie... something anti-Bush (ie. Death of a President, Shut up and Sing) would be good. Joanne, do you still want to catch a movie sometime when you're not entirely stressed out?

See you all on (spppoooookkyyyy) Hallowe'en.....

~~Aaron

Ps. I guess you're using my idea for your paper, eh Chels?
Pps. "Ann, don't do drrrruggs" - Dracula

How's everyone doing? I haven't seen/talked to any of you since my b-day. Thanks for trying to cheer me up Chels. But I can't stop thinking about how badly I am doing in school than I'm used to. It's mind numbingly depressing =( Not sure if I want to go trick or treating.

I'm really sad because I'm not allowed to take showers everyday anymore. I've been having a lot of hair falling out so I went to see the doctor and he said it might be stress or the fact that I'm shampooing my hair everyday.. I think it's both. Gah.
Aaron, when do you have time to watch a movie? We can go watch something else if Step Up isn't playing anymore. Anyone wanna watch The Prestige/Marie Antoinette??

As for my gaydar, not sure if it's trustworthy.. But I did get the gay vibe from Mr. Sas.. Is that considered pretty good?

i am not too lazy to use colours, see? :P anyhoo, what time are you all going tot'ing? (trick or treating, i made it up myself) and no, i'm not a mad scientist, aaron..although i do have alot of lab coats and beakers lying around in my bedroom, going to waste..(that was sarcasm) and for your information, my gay-dar is excellent. one day i shall put it to the test for you, and you will be amazed. but yeah, exams were hard, i'm loosing hair, crazy people talk to me on the bus, what else is new? sigh, now i have a headache and it hurts..i think i'm gonna go take some drrrrugs (dracula voice)

ttyl, Ann
snoop bloggy blog, yeah ah ah ahhh

almost done...

got one more midterm tomorrow (math). chem was pretty bad... i had no idea how to do two of the questions (one was worth nine marks...)... :\ well, i did what i could. i already accepted the fact that i'm gonna fail before the exam started *rolls eyes* i started studying the evening before for the class i'm most behind in, so it really is my fault. :( kind of sad, but i'll try hard to make it up during the final (which is worth 4 times this one. really)

so yeah. i SO really would like to hang out on friday... but i can't. DAMNIT. :( i'm sorry. today is dan's and my ten month and i've been really shitty to him lately (exams... EXAMS DESTROY US ALL) and i feel really bad about it. i've gotta write part of my eng paper and redo my resume (for AgSci) and study for math... all for tomorrow! so nothing for us for today so he made me promise i'd save friday for him (i'm working sat and sun)... so yeah. okay, i know you're all probably like, ahhh ("all"=LILY) because you think i spend all my time with him... and it's true, i do. but like... most of the time we do homework together (in each other's presence... not like, help each other. we're taking completely different classes) or i'm studying studying studying and he's reading or something... so it's not the same... we hardly actually ever go out like we used to. school and all... but like, around our month anniversary things, we usually make more of an effort :( i'm sorry... i haven't gone out with anyone else in the longest time... (joanne's bday?)

so... once again, i'm supposed to do more english. english is SO POO AHH....

so yeah. hmm... yeah, aaron, sorry, my gaydar's pretty shitty. but if i were you, my convo with your coworker guy would go more like:

Me: I have a present for you
Marcus: Huh? [confused look]
[give him the candy]
Marcus: Oh... awww....
Me: And I know it's not watermelon (he doesn't like watermelon)
Marcus: Awww....
Me: Yeah... now you owe me! Haha, just kidding!
Marcus: [laughs] Okay, I'll take you out to lunch sometime.
Me: [stunned] Really?
Marcus: Yeah.
Me: [long pause] Really??
Marcus: [nods]
Me: [shorter pause] Are you gay?
Marcus: ...[pause] ...YES!!! Oh Aaron, you finally know the truth.... so I'll just come right out and say it: I LOVE YOU!!! I always have and I always will... Oh aaron... all those times I've looked at you shyly from across the room... You never noticed me. But no more hiding! ... I remember last week, when you were leaving, and I said "bye" and you didn't even hear me. I gave you a sad wave... wondering when I'd see you again... but you never even turned to look back... but now you're right here, with me... and I never want you to leave me... please, Aaron, say you'll be mine...
Me: [stunned] wow... of course, Marcus...

three years later, the happy couple is still together :)

so yeah. oh... okay, i just realised i may have overdramatized just a bit... and i just want to make sure you don't take it the wrong way. i'm not mocking you, aarie... just to clarify... was just kind of typing as i imagined it... it was really happy in my twisted head, okay? :( someone will come. just wait. you're still really young.

joanne: don't let school rule your life. true, my grades have dropped since i started thinking that way, but i'm so much happier. it's not like i don't study... i just... don't... take tests and things too seriously. i know when it's over and i look back, i'm not gonna be like, "hey, i remember that derivative test i took in November in first year at UBC... god, that was hard..." when you look back, it's just like... overall, how things were, y'know? just try to put things in perspective :)

know what i noticed? y'know the panic at the disco song? "...i can't help but to hear, no i can't help but to hear an exchanging of words: what a beautiful marriage, what a beautiful marriage said the bridesmaid to the waiter, and yes but what a shame the poor groom's bride is a whore. ...i'd chime in, haven't you people ever heard of closing the goddamn door..." etc? well it used to play like that but recently on the radio, they've been censoring it... "whore" for one, which isn't really crazy or anything, but also "god" in "goddamn door" isn't that weird? so it goes "the poor groom's bride is a shhh... i'd chime in, haven't you people ever heard of closing the [pause]damn door?" isn't that stupid?

i heard on the radio today that canada post received some gay hate mail pamphlet thingies... and they really didn't want to send it out, but it's against the law to censor mail... so they felt obligated to... i was like ahh that's stupid... they should be able to censor it! then i realised no, i don't think they should. but at the same time, i didn't think that hate mail should just be allowed to pass through canada post like that... that's horrible and ridiculous. i don't know what to think anymore...

ann: midterms over yet?

gotta do homework... i'll try to give you guys a call on friday :)

chels

ps- thanks, aarie, for the eng topic. it's going pretty well. kind of... :)

What's your tone?

I hope you're kidding Lily. You know I would never do that, and out of the group, I'm probably the last one to do it. But if you're not, it was just a question, nothing more. I know I don't know him the way you know him, or see him the way you see him, which is why I asked. If you don't feel comfortable letting all of us know, that's okay. And if you truly like him, then who am I to stop you? But if all you can tell me is that he's funny (and the fact that he's on the rebound), maybe you should think about it.

I'm just trying to be a friend.

~~Aaron

well.

he's funny..i don't know
it's very complicated
BOO YOU AaRON DON"T JUDGE ME..

¿?

Hey guys... here's a pic that I like. Keeping my post short, Lily, what exactly do you see in Jonathan?

~~Aaron

Oh Aaron

don't fret.
You'll find someone in due time.

Aaron, if you collect all the homosexual characteristics, then you won't be in such a rut next time.

So..
1. Homosexuals wear scarves.
2. Homosexuals have lisps.
3. The guys that hit on Ann are undoubtedly homosexual. (HA HA!)
and lastly...
4. They like to come out after the rain. (get it...get it)

Anyways,
Okay, john broke up with joyce.
I think i still like him.
I think he knows that i still like him thanks to my sister.
But i don't blame her.
Because it's always better to know earlier than later.
I don't know if i can see myself with him.
I don't know what will happen.
I don't know if a potential relationship is worth giving up out friendship.

Now, to end off with something less serious.

how did the gum cross the road?
It was stuck on the bottom of the chicken's foot, specifically on the corner of the left one. haha

PS NO COLOUR FOR YOU!!! HIYAH!
