seriously.
i just got a brand new laptop, and im sitting in overstuffed computer lab. now why would i be silly enough to do that?
im not.
my stupid BRAND FUCKING NEW laptop is running a vista os, and apparently that is not compatible with sfu's wireless LAN. the tech guy told me that i can either wait for microsoft to send me an update security packet for it, or i could just uninstall vista and install XP. a new computer should NOT be giving me this much greif.
and to add insult to injury, i am pretty sure there is a busted pixel on the screen already. ive had this thing for LESS THAN A WEEK. and there is already a black dot that doesnt seem to be going away.
i havent dropped it or hit it hard or anything. what the fucking cunt?! its seriously pissing me off. i got this thing to help me in school and it doesnt even work in school.
yeah. im waiting for the humor in this to kick in.
so im probably going to have to long distance call dumoulin in mtl where i ordered the thing to find out whether or not i have any validity in complaining about the screen after a week.
like what the fuck eh?
in other news.
my life just finished a bout of uberdramatic.
my best friend just got out of a four year relationship. he broke up with her and now she's a total mess. that was last week. this week she's better, but she is still hurting which drives me up the wall cause there really isn't anything i can say or do to make her feel better.
not to mention when i try, i either get ignored or yelled at.
so im kinda just there, if she needs me, but otherwise, im not sure how much damage i can take. im not exactly the most stable stool in the kitchen.
especially with school stressing me out, but thats a whole 'nother entry that im not sure i want to write cause i may burst out crying. =P fucking school.

i fucking hate translink. and the skytrain.
after being yelled at to get off the skytrain in the middle of new westminister and i don't fucking know where i am street. i end up walking around not knowing where the hell i am or where i am going ...
why didn't i ask someone where i was or where i was going?
cause there was NO FUCKING TRANSLINK EMPLOYEES to ask!
so instead i just wandered around like a dumbass until i hit the police station to ask where the metrotown bus stop/nearest skytrain station was.
finally i get to the bus and FUCK.
the worst bus ride ever. i had no idea how fucking LONG the trip to metrotown by bus was from new west.
plus add that it was fucking crowded, smelled like something was rotting, and everyone was tightly enclosed in a small space with winter jackets on. i was so fucking uncomfortable i was ready to scream.
finally i get to metrotown and catch the 49 to my place.
what would normally be a 1-1.5 hour trip home .. became a 2.5-3 hour trip home.
could someone tell me what the fuck is up with that???
and what REALLY pisses me off...
if i was in the tutorial the ended an hour before mine, so instead of 330 it ends at 230 i could have gotten a lift home and thus avoided this horrible ordeal.
when i asked my t.a. if i could switch he said that my prof. was not allowing anyone to switch due to the amount of paperwork their department would end up doing.
EXCUSE ME. but isn't it your fucking JOB to DO that paperwork?!
since we pay our fucking EXPENSIVE tutition, if there is an available spot somewhere were should be allowed to take that spot regardless of how much fucking paperwork you bastards have to go through.
do your fucking job you lazy asswads.
im heading to the econ department to give them a piece of my mind if they don't let me transfer cause this is so fucking ridiculous.
its days like this i just want to take a break from school for a year and work to save up money for a car. then i dont have to put up with this translink bullshit.

i am thouroughly exhausted from the weekend's events as well as the latest midterm exam i had to take yesterday. also, did i mention i opened starbucks the past two days as well? *dies* haha. okay so im whining just a little.
it was actually a really amazing weekend, as most of them have been for a while. *gleams* too bad the weather hasnt been all too agreeable. =P i wanna go for icecream. correction. i wanna go for some 207 flavors of gelato at casa gelato. yumx3548716241000000.
thrusday started with me getting home from work late cause i took nat's shift and was eating dinner when i txt'd jamie to call me cause i wanted to see if he wanted to get a pumpkin and carve pumpkins with me that weekend cause i didnt want to carve alone. instead he calls me and tells me that he's coming over =) the machines or trucks broke down or something at his work up in whistler so he basically got the next two nights off. =) so he came over and was totally on board with the pumpkin carving idea. we ended up sleeping really early cause i had to get up really early to open for work on friday. which incidentally was also jamie's mom's birthday. they were all going as a family out to dinner and jamie said i was invited.
i have honestly never been invited to another person's family gathering like that. i still am totally stunned sometimes that im in a serious relationship with someone. im a *gasp* girlfriend. =O
i went to work and ended early since it was an opening shift. after work i picked up flowers and my free tea markout to give to jamie's mom as a gift. i also ended up running around the city trying to get my visa bill paid and get to a liquor store to pick up the 1.15L of vodka for my jello shots. when i finally get home at like 2, there is a message on my home answering machine that a package is waiting for me at air canada cargo. OI. it's the care package of clothes that my mom sent me. i was really happy to get it, i just hate driving to richmond so close to rush hour. so i tried as fast as i could to zoom there and zoom back before getting stuck in crazy gridlock. made it home at like 4, and jamie's mom's dinner was at like 515. i was super tired and tried to get a nap in before getting ready to go to dinner when my mom called and wanted to chat. my nap went out the window and by the time i said goodbye it was time to shower and get ready to go. jamie picked me up, the dinner was nice, it was a fancy buffet but i hate that jamie's family makes fun of how i eat. or how i don't eat for that matter.
i know my eating habits definately border on anorexic but hey, i've been there already and i am so much better than before. im sorry that i dont eat like you're sons. =P
after dinner jamie took me to the ghost train. it wasnt as busy as we thought it would be which was good. and omfg. petting zoo's smell like ass. ugh. no more haunted petting zoo's thank you very much. blech. the train itself was fun. so cheezy though, definately made for little kids. =) but it was still fun to go.
after the train we decided to pick up the pumpkins and nacho fixin's for the next day so we wouldnt have to go out at all.
i was wrong, i realized at like 10am when i woke up that we forgot to get shootercups to make the jelloshots in, so i woke up jamie and told him to come with me to the $store to get some disposable shooter cups. we got back and made the shots. carved pumpkins and then he left to get his costume ready and help rob with last minute stuff around the greenhouse.
i cleaned a little more and waited for denise, courtney, oz and aimee to come over and get ready for the party.
we took FIVE hours to get makeup done and ready. if you wanna see the final results of my costume, go here: halloween pictures!
by the time we got to the greenhouse party it was already 10pm. i immediately took jello shots and wanted to get as wasted as possible. =) after getting sufficiently drunk at one party, jamie and i walked to the party at matt&amanda's. i was really happy i saw jenni again since i NEVER see her. met some really cool people. =) even though i was only there for an hour it was a LOT of fun. i did feel a lil' guilty though cause i said id be back for pancakes but fell dead asleep instead and forgot. =S
we went back to the party at the greenhouse and sadly it nearing its end. about 10min after i got there windows started to break and people started to leave. =P at the end of the night we went over to jamie's to sleep only to find out that jamie's brother george, sally and blair were sleeping all around the house. =S when jamie woke up the next morning he asked if we could go to my place so he could get some sleep before driving off to work that afternoon. so we went to my place and slept til like 2. then he took me to pho's around the corner. we had lunch and then he drove back to whislter.
and i tried to study for my midterm.
which was so weird. the midterm, not studying for it. i have personally never been in an exam situation that was so ridgid. no hats allowed? no asking questions at all? wtf dude?!
but now that is over and done with. thank lordy.
i opened work this morning in costume whoo! which was really fun. =) and tonight im giving out candy to anyone who knocks. =) frreeee candy for all!
and later on this week my mom is coming for a visit.
ugh.
trust there will be some definate angry, angsty daughter fights with mother entries soon.
happy halloween to all. and look out for that great pumpkin!

this absolutely BLOWS.
this whole day absolutely BLOWS.
i fucking hate hate hate hate hate hate hate bad news.
this morning it started.
my boss told me a few weeks ago that she wanted me to come in this morning earlier than i was supposed to. i was going to come in at 9am instead of 1145am.
so i slept a lil' earlier last night, woke up and got ready.
i get to work and ...
what the fuck.
james asks me what im doing there so early since .. oh whats that?? im not scheduled to work until 1145am, my ORIGINAL schduled time.
so instead of staying i hauled my ass home and finished my laundry and dishes .. even though i wished i was still sleeping.
and after a hard ass day working, which happens to be unbelievably stupid customer day at work, where every ass backwards moron customer decided to get coffee. =P fuck you all.
and now im home, i expected jamie to come over late on tonight or early this morning, and he calls me.
and he tells me that he's not going to be able to drive down this weekend.
he's not going to be able to drive down ANY weekend. his company is expecting him to work everyday, seven days a week up in whistler until it snows. argh.
what the fuck.
call me whiny, but i want my FUCKING BOYFRIEND. i am SO beyond tired of this long distance bullshit. and on top of it all, im terrified that it wont snow up in whistler until after halloween. i REALLY want him here halloween. especially since my halloween costume is meant for his eyes mostly. =P
stupid whistler, stupid job, stupid people, stupid situation.

in keeping with the updating, i decided to do a whole other post on my loverly long thanksgiving day weekend. which went from having no place to go, to having two dinners and one lunch. =) mmmm. sam get fat.
lesseeeee ...
thursday after i got off my last class i was SO relieved to be done school for the weekend. drove home after getting free parking =) SCORE. i was in a total can't stay home, gotta do something mood. i ended up asking nathan if he wanted to hang out since i never see him anymore. =S and he's giving me flack for it and not updating my lj.
hey nathan. im updating! ha! ;)
anyhow i finally got to see his place downstairs below where jenni used to live on ross st. he's living with grame now which is really cool. =) he's back from asia and i only got to meet him right before he left. he's fun =) i really like everyone that's living in that house now. =) so it was basically me, grame, nathan and his friend crystal who he invited over who is also [ive decided] is rediculously cool. =) we watched survivor since nathan's addicted to it, got really gross [in a good way] mcdonalds food and i got a slurpee. =9 yurm. and it was really really really fun. it was nice to hang out with them, which i rarely do unfortunately. i then remembered something about amanda owning ddr mats and the game which made me giddy with asian excitement. so i made everyone play. hahahaha. which was kinda bad cause amanda had a homework to do. =S it WAS FUN. i totally didnt know there was a ddr song for the b52's rock lobster. omg. TOO FUN. haha. =) i also still have the image of grame on his ass playing ddr on the extreme level with his hands and feet, and after 10 seconds flailing like he's having a seisure. hahaha. can you say video for youtube?! thanks for inviting me over to play =)
friday i had to work all day. and then was supposed to go shopping with aimee but she got sick. =( so i ended up picking up jamie so he could pick up his jetta at my place and put his new licence on and everything. yup. that's right, my man now drives a jetta. *swoon* after making sure the car was all good and filled up with all kinds of car fluids we went for dinner at white spot. i ate so much i was like a cat with no legs. we were also toying with the idea of seeing "we are scientists" at commodore that night since flora really wanted to go but had noone to go with. after an hour of hemming and hawwing we decided to go and i am -SO- glad we did. the opening band was art brut who are FANTASTIC and i am now in love with them. we are scientists were not bad. but art brut is better. =P we went back to my place and jamie slept over.
saturday we woke up late cause of jamie's sleeping patterns now that he's on night shift. we ended up getting wings at wingnuts for lunch since i was incessantly bothering him about it. we went with rob cause jamie was dropping him to get his car in exchange for the use of rob's costco card. jamie+costo=*sad sigh* after costco jamie brought me to get gelato. mmm. <3 then george called to see if we wanted to go see jackass 2 which was playing at the theatre right down the street from him. we called joe who wanted to join us and aimee but she she was too sick and didnt want to. jamie came over and helped me move furniture around to make my bedroom more comfy. then we picked up joe then went for uncle fattih's pizza. but there was no more potato pizza and that pissed me off. =P at george's him and jamie impromptu decided to watch "the departed" instead of jackass since it was playing at rio. so we went to see that instead. pretty crazy movie. but good. afterwards jamie slept over again.
sunday morning i had work all that day so i had to kick jamie out early and go to work. which was poo. i really didnt feel like working. plus the creeping realization that i had done NO homework was suddenly very apparent. after work i picked up flowers for jamie's mom and went home to get ready for thanksgiving dinner at their house. the dinner was really good. TASTY TASTY food, jane really is an AMAZING cook. there were a couple of odd moments at dinner where i wasnt sure if i was being insulted or groomed for the future. ive decided to let it go and pretend it never happened. i ended up sleeping over at jamie's after helping him go through his older brother geoff's clothes to see if there was anything good.
monday morning i was rudely awoken by starbucks calling me to come into work at 8am. that SUCKED. especially since i was at jamies and really comfortable. but i couldnt say no cause i needed the time and a half of holiday pay. so i said goodbye to jamie and wished him a good drive up since i wasnt going to see him. after work i got home and got ready to go to my family lunch at earls. it was alright. my family kept asking a lot of questions about jamie and why havent they met him yet. =S after lunch it was 3 and my brother came to the house and bitched about how messy i am. argh. so i spend the rest of the day cleaning and organizing instead of studying. stupid poo head. then at 530 i left to pick up wine and the tofurkey for colleen and kazaar's dinner at their place. it was really chill and relaxed. we watched project runway and WOW. colleen and kazaar can cook. good food and i really do like tofurkey. mmm. and veggie gravy is tasty too. fullness all around.
i went home early to try in vain to do homework but ended up so being so exhausted i just took a shower and fell asleep in bed.
i must've gained 10000pounds in eating all weekend. dieting will now commence so i can look sexy in my halloween costume. which btw rocks so many fucking socks.
now its tuesday. im in school. and ive got another 2 hours to kill. =)
happy thanksgiving everybody.

yes. i am finally updating.
after practically an entire season without a real update, i am back. =)
last i left off, i was moving to back to vancouver ... ive moved. although sadly at least 30% of my stuff is still in montreal awaiting for me to go pick it up. turns out that moving shows you just how much crap you have in your possession. five years in montreal gave me a LOT of crap.
my summer was absolutely AMAZING. it started badly with a nasty breakup with jamie and i, which drove me to be slutty mc slut-slut. after about a month of breakup b.s. between us, one drunken night he asked me back and now everything is just as it should be. i am beyond happy with jamie and although my trust isnt yet 100% there yet, we've had 4 months of bliss so far... and it doesn't show any signs of stopping. =)
other than that summer was comprised of going out... A LOT. went on 2 camping trips to squamish [ps-sex on gravel=owch. always bring a blanket], took a couple of trips up to whistler since jamie is now working up there most of the week, but drives back down here to visit me on weekends. <3 saw a couple of concerts. futureheads with scott was SO good. did a lot of drinking. was supposed to go raving at apex, but since it got cancelled i ended up at summerbreaks watching nathan spin, which was just as fun, and totally non-inebreiated fun too! no e for sam! although i did pop, once.
i also *trumpet noise* got my first tattoo! oooboy did it hurt.
( i see stars even when im awake. )
although i will admit it was so worth the pain. the pic is really enlarged, its actually like 1/4th the size and located on my mid-back, right above my bra line. it came out pretty much perfect although itched like a sonofabitch. im now totally jonsing to get my lip pierced. all in all that was basically my summer in a nutshell/cliff's notes kinda sprawl.
i did also get a job. =) i ended up getting a job at the starbucks near my house and have been working there for almost six months now. it is actually not as bad as i expected it to be. most of the people im working with i totally adore. although 3 of them arent there anymore which pisses me off =P but i picked up everything quickly and am totally diggin' the free stuff every week. =) plus-pay raise soon. so definately hoping for that. this is really good for now, but i am still looking for a better paying job, but its good FOR NOW.
school is hard hard hard. i got admitted into simon fraser university. i took a easy english course over the summer just to get in the school. now i am in full time and taking business courses to try in vain to get into the business program. that's right i want to get a business degree. i jumped from theatre to business. can you say "fucked?" but i suppose this will all work out in the end. suffer now, reap the rewards later.
and well. that pretty much leads me to my present time. =)
