Shriek Elegance

There was concern expressed about last night BUT NEVER FEAR, MY DARLINGS, I AM GOOD. AND SO IS MY PHONE. :]

Mongol was good, btw. Not for everyone, but I liked it.

[9:56pm]

I wish my life was as glamorous as some of these movies make life out to be.

Then again, all the people in these glamarous movies are really pretty. :[

:[[[

More chins than a Chinese phonebook.

My tiredness just hit me like a ton of bricks when I sat down after doing our surveys. I feel like absolute shit. I need to start getting more sleep. I really, really need to start getting more sleep. Pretty sure this is why I felt so shitty yesterday.

Nyuuuugh.

Might watch Mongol tonight. Either tonight or tomorrow. I’d like to watch it tonight. We’ll see.

[11:44pm]

My net was dead for a couple of hours.

So I started thinking.

Thinking led to me throwing my phone across the room.

I hate myself.

Something was super wrong with me earlier today. My head was aching but not really? If I moved there was like… a ghost of an ache on the front right hemisphere of my brain that kinda whooshed all the way to the back of my head and down my neck. It was horrible ’cause it wasn’t intense pain, just constant mild aching. And all of my organs felt like they were floating. And my legs were wobbly and couldn’t keep their balance and my hands were shakey. It was horrible. I ate some lunch and I feel better now but wtf was that? Cancer, probs. I think it has to do with the lack of sleep. I need to get more sleep.

Speaking of sleep, I forgot to turn my alarm on last night. I changed it to the right time but forgot to turn it on. Ended up waking up at 7:40. Which means OH no time to shower or eat or make lunch. And of course it happens on the ONE day where I actually have to go to school early (for a Thursday) to meet with my group. JLD.

Speaking of my group, it’s awesome. We’re doing Act II, Scene 3 of Macbeth. I get to be the drunk Porter as well as Lady Macbeth (which is fine ’cause she only has like… four short lines). Hopefully I make a good drunk man. And hopefully I can memorize his epic drunken opening.

Sarika is coming over after school today so we can make some cookies for our survey tomorrow. :3

I have a Kanji test tomorrow. :(

I wish Asuka had lab hours in the morning so that I could go there between Shakey and Socio. It’d be nice to do some extra Japanese studying and practice with someone who actually speaks it.

Guess I should go back to paying attention. -sigh- this class is definitely not for me. I like the professor, he’s a good, funny guy, I’m just not into the literature. Muuu.

I really want to see Goemon. I don’t actually know, but I am going to assume that it is very (very very?) loosely based on Ishikawa Goemon, who was kind of like the Japanese Robin Hood. Anyway, the movie looks like a hybrid between 300 and Casshern. I’m excited. :)

Here is a trailer for your viewing pleasure.

That’s all I really have to say. :3

Sarika and I are going to get married and adopt one child from every country and then name them after their country of origin to make it a little easier on us. :D

I am currently drinking me some frozen strawberries and tequila. Nom nom nom margarita.

Um. There’s not much to update you on. I haven’t done really… anything this past week. Not even homework, which isn’t good. I’ve been good today, though. I did all of my critiques and and my Japanese comment. So I won’t have to cram them into my breaks before class tomorrow. Go me! I still have to study for my Socio midterm, read A Simple Story and work out our Shaxpur presentation. I also need to continue to think about my prospectus. Not too much, though, ’cause I’ll have all of reading week to git’r'dun. BLAAARG.

I am currently downloading Mongol. Sarika and I are going to watch it togedder because we like historical movies. We are also going to be making cookies some time this week for our Socio survey. ‘Cause we’re pretty sure we’ll pull in more people if we offer cookies for their efforts in answering our questions. I mean. Who doesn’t like cookies?

Golly gee I am sleepy and it’s only 9:20ish.

I am also ridiculously bored. I could start my Romantic Lit reading… or finish up my Socio reading… but I’ve been doing homework ever since I got home :( I don’t wanna anymore.

My back hurts. The stupid tables in my Romantic Lit room are too high for the chairs and it kills my back to be in that class every friggin’ time. I need a chiropractor. Somebody take me to ooooone.

Mum lit the mango candle. DELICIOUS.

Foo.

[10:41pm]

God, Dad, yes, some people like to go party. It’s how they relax, it’s what they do in their spare time. Not everyone is good with sitting at home and watching UFC or playing sports. Some people actually want to go out and have social life. Stop thinking that everyone is below you. Jesus shit.

Oh God oh God oh God oh God. I woke up, my leg was still in pain. I was also blessed with a new nugget- I apparently slept awkwardly so the right side of my neck is in serious pain when I look or move it certain ways. The pain is unimaginable. I thought the Tylenol I took wasn’t helping my neck, but how wrong I was. It’s worn off now and I can definitely feel the difference. I suppose the right side of my body just fucking hates me. First the leg, then the neck… and to top everything off, the smoke detector went off again this morning at like 7:30 because of the heat and moisture from the bathroom. This day has been horrible.

Going to see Underworld tonight.

Sieznbabdppqidehcs. I’m so tired of the paiaiaiaiaiiiin~ Sounds like a horrible Simple Plan song.

Something is wrong with my right leg. There is an excruciating searing pain right where my leg connects to my pelvis. Then the pain spreads from there down the inside of my thigh. It hurts so much. I don’t know why, either. I was fine this morning, I got on the bus, then when I stood up to get off the bus, I noticed the pain. Though at the time, it wasn’t so bad. In Timmy’s, again, not so bad. It was after my first break, after I had been sitting for an hour and a half, that I noticed the shooting pain when I stood up. It subsided to a dull ache every time I took a step as I walked around more. Then after creative writing, because I was sitting again, it was back to searing pain when I stood up. Again, it subsided when I walked on it for a bit. It started to ache more when I sat down after that, though, so I decided not to go to my last class because I couldn’t concentrate and it was Romantic Lit. It just wouldn’t have ended well. So I stayed at the Collegium until 7pm when Danny was done work. By this point, the pain didn’t subside after walking on it for a while, it just seared all the time. I’m really hoping it will be better by tomorrow morning. I’m in horrible pain all the time and it’s getting unbearable.

Whine, whine, whine, moan, bitch, whine, it really hurts.

Not many people showed up for games night. By not many, I mean one guy came in and was on his laptop for a while, and another guy who was a huge nerd and showed way too much asscrack played some chess and DDR.

I’ve decided not to do homework today. The pain is still distracting.

I’m quite tired.

I wish I had a piano.

Going to see Underworld tomorrow evening, probably. Anyone else want to come?

Highlight of my morning:

Lawrence: Dawn?
I stand up. Lawrence looks right at me.
Lawrence: Can you please stand up?
Me: I… I am standing…
Lawrence: …Oh.
Me: I’M JUST LITTLE.

My small stature strikes again!

[5:09pm]

Merf. My parents are hounding me about a job for the summer again. Already. Their reasoning is that it will be harder to get a job because everyone is cutting back. I don’t think they understand that I can only get minimum wage/entry level jobs right now. No one is going to hire for positions like that three months in advance. It is not something they do. But I can’t tell them that because they think they know everything about the modern “little guy” workforce. I’m sorry, but what the hell do you know? Neither of you have worked shit jobs for over thirty years. Dad didn’t even work normal shit jobs like this. So get off my ass about fucking money, okay? I know I’m poor. I know I need to work. I know getting a job is hard. Obviously, you two think I need to worry about this right now when the stress is starting to pick up. Thanks. A lot.

And y’know? I still have a job. And I know it’s ridiculous because it’s been going on for half a year or something silly like that, and I know it seems hopeless and that I sound stupid for clinging to it, but it’s not like it isn’t going anywhere. The Westbank location of PC Bang is going to open eventually, it isn’t flopping. It’s just going to take some time. And I know that I don’t have time. If it isn’t open by the time I’m nearing the end of school, then yes, of course I’m going to look for some work to fill the gap. I’m not that fucking stupid. I know what needs to be done. But nobody is going to hire me now. For April/May. It isn’t going to happen. Apparently any job I go out and take initiative on that doesn’t follow what they want is the wrong thing to do. So fucking sorry.

I want to leave.

Shay was finally able to land on Saturday, though they didn’t tell her that she would be laying over in Vancouver for a bit, so I ended up waking up way earlier than I needed to. Anyway, we got her back to my house finally and everything was well and good. People came over and we hung out and times were hilarious. I would describe in detail, but most of you were there and I just don’t want to.

Shay and I went shopping together on Sunday for a bit. We ran into Josh at Spenser’s and Jamie at Randy River. She got a shirt from Urban Planet. Ummmm.

Yesterday, Shay, Cam, Danny, Nick and Gavin came over and we made some hilariously delicious gluten free cake. Nick didn’t stay for the cake and Danny missed half of it, but it was good times, nonetheless.

Nothing’s really happened other than spending time with Shay. Like I said, I’d put it in more detail, but I’m really not in the mood. Actually, I’m not really in the mood to update. I just am ’cause I haven’t for a while.

I’m in the mood to work on my story, but I have other things that I should be doing. I think my second submission is going to be poetry, I’m not sure yet. I can’t do non-fiction and I really don’t think my screenplays are very good, so I’ll just stick to poetry. After our first workshop today, I kinda don’t feel like a very successful writer anymore. I’unno. I feel like they won’t really like what I write. I hate hearing negative things about the things that I do, which is silly, I know, because the point of workshops is to help me get better, but still. I guess I’ll just have to wait and see what they say about it, I guess. Blah.

I am watching a show with really bad acting called BeastMaster. On the plus side, it’s got animals in it. On the down side, it’s got some pretty horrible acting. Very horrible acting, actually.

That’s all for now.

Is really fucking homosexual. Shay’s plane didn’t land, again. It started landing. Then pulled up and flew back to Calgary. She probably won’t be able to make it out until Saturday -.-; so I’ll probably have to run out sometime on Saturday during teh gathering (WHICH IS SUPPOSED TO BE FOR HER) to go get her from the airport. Hopefully. D< This is so STUPID.

Other than that, dinner was good. Darek and Gav got way too drunk, which was good times. Pictures and videos uploaded to Flickr for anyone who cares.

Japanese homework too way too long to do o.O

That’s all I suppose. I’m off.
