| Wheeeeeee! Who loves Winter Break?? Me, me!! Who hates Wal-Mart??? ME! ME! I'm such a lazy bum, I wish they would just fire me so I could actually enjoy my winter break---which is completely idiotic, but oy, never said I was the brightest crayon---but honestly, Wally World is gonna fuck up my SS checks which will majorly suck and I don't know if the job is worth fucking those up for these last six months...
Anywho, I am SICK---with the flu or something, all I know is my throat sucks and is all scritchy scratchy and I am sore all over... sucks... but at least it means no work cuz Jaclyn ain't risking fainting on the job---I know studying for finals and working long hours is what made me sick---or at least weakened my immune system enough that snotty little brats got me sick when they're mothers dragged them through the clothing department...urgh... I think I kinda passed my finals, but I missed a couple of quizzes in Latin and English and didn't make them up---I completely forgot about Latin till Friday night and was like sshhhiiiittt---but hopefully I made good enough grades beside those so I made a C at least...god, I hope so cuz losing TOPS would suck all sorts of ass...
Visited Suzy Q finally Friday-Monday after finals---crazy, crazy times... just wow... lots of drinking, lots of goofing off, lots of craziness. Gots a new tattoo--purty celtic four leaf clover on my wrist and gots my tongue pierced---woot, woot---hurted like a mofo, but worth it--if my throat and junk weren't acting up I'd be fine (except for the Daffy impersonation, hee) why must I be sick?!? I hate being sick... going to the doc tomorrow and gonna be like FIX ME FIX ME!
La la la---mainly just wanted to talk about my tongue and tat, so happy now! Ciao! | | |
| Ack! Its been forever since I last posted and I totally left it hanging---but now I'm completely over the whole tire fiasco so I'm just gonna say that buying a new tire took a lot of time and patience---wasn't much fun, but eventually got it all worked out and have been driving around on my new ghetto looking wheel minus one shiny hubcap---I'll get around to buying one eventually, right now I have better things to spend my money on :P
Whoo! Guess what?? I have officially changed my major from History to English--I know, I know--so exciting, right?? But nah, I've always liked writing better but I guess I didn't wanna follow that whole cliche path of the starving writer who thinks she's gonna write Pulitzer novel---I KNOW I'm not gonna, but heck, might as well waste my money learning something I love, eh? But anywho I had been really unhappy lately with the whole History thing and then I had some "family issues" and so I missed some class and my History teacher (who shall remain nameless) was kinda "bitchy" about it and told me I was pretty much gonna fail her class and so I was like I don't have to deal with this---better put, I don't have the energy to deal with this--I work forty hour weeks at Wally World, I have other classes requiring just as much time and effort with teachers who are UNDERSTANDING, and the holidays are always kinda icky cuz of my dad passing away around this time so yeah---I decided to drop her class----but that day got better cuz my english teacher wanted to talk to me and she told me that I wrote "beautifully" and thought I should at least minor in English and with History going as its been going the last year or so (interesting but mostly just okay) I was like what the hell? I'm gonna do it, so I did and it was very anticlimatic, but whatever cuz I can't stop grinning--I'm an English Major.
Hee.
And its All Hallows Eve---better known as Halloween and I actually had trick or treaters at the dorm--crazy, but true. I had some candy so I gave them huge handfuls and just snickered amusingly as they skipped off-----I'm pretty sure they were way too old to be out banging on doors for candy, but what the hell----If I had the balls I'd probably get me a costume and join 'em :P
I just finished reading Wicked---The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West----it was very interesting---No, I mean, it was good---very intellectual and surprisingly deep, focusing on the reality of evil---is it tangible or spiritual, a lack of good or created from the realization of virtue? Very very psychological and incredibly human considering the story matter---Oz and the Witch and Dorothy and Toto---I really liked it and I think it'll be one of my favorites, its just taking some time for the story's ending to really sink in----American media has brainwashed its audiences (myself included) into accepting only fairytale "happily ever afters" endings and well, come on, we all know what happened to the Witch at the end of the movie.
Anywho, I love Halloween. No real reason behind it, just love the holiday----its such a surprisingly happy holiday----morbid, I know, but come on just look at all the happy kids running around dressed as kittens and dragons gobbling tons of chocolate---its a fun holiday and it makes me smile---it makes adults act like kids-----my hallmates can attest to that, I can hear them laughing and shouting from here but its not annoying... I like it when people are happy------so sappy I know and no sacarstic remarks JamJam!!
So everyone Be Happy and Have a Great Halloween---and Remember, Eat Lots & Lots of Chocolate! | | |
| Hola,
I swear, someone up above loves watching me run around like a headless chicken *_* And they also have it out for my car. What did my car ever do to you, huh?! She's just a harmless little dodge neon---nothing spectacular, nothing flashy---just a little putt-putt mobile that gets me where I'm needed and yet, this poor, innocent car just continues to suffer!
(I'm a tad melodramatic this morn, can ya tell?)
But, no, seriously---My car has some of the worse luck---first I dented it not once, but twice in the same spot---then its transmission went kaput and when I thought it was fixed, it turned out the ppl hadn't done a damn thing so I had to get fixed not once, but twice (woo, seeing a pattern here), and now something so beyond the scope of my understanding has happened---Somebody stole one of my front tires.
What the hell?
I mean, come on! It's a freaking NEON, go steal a tire from a mercedes or a mustang or SOMETHING! Why my piddly little ole neon??? And they took everything--the tire, the wheel, the lugnuts--grrr... I mean here I am, minding my own business, working away at Suncoast---tired and wanting nothing more than to go home---and when I'm finally let off (this happened Sunday by the way) I go outside and try to reverse my car.... But it won't go.... So I try again...and it still won't go... So finally I get out thinking maybe I had ran up the curb and was kinda stuck and maybe I could like push it off (there's a significant lack of thought it that whole idea but phft) and so I kick at it (yet again, not much thought going on there) and suddenly I hear this lady yelling at me.
"Ya got no tye."
"What?"
"Ya got no tye!"
*looks down at shirt* "Huh? I wasn't wearing one..."
"Ya got no TYRE!"
"WHAT!? Oh God, don't be saying what I think you're saying..."
So, I walk my self around and LO & Behold, No freaking front right tire! AH! I just kinda stood there dumbfounded, then I turned to her and was like "Someone took my tire?"
"Yea."
"Someone freaking took my tire?!"
And so I rant and rave for like a minute when these bimbettes walk by and ask the lady---"What happened? Why doesn't she have a tire?"
"Someone stole it."
"Like oh my god! Are you for real?"
And I become like some odd circus attraction with all these ppl coming over to watch Jaclyn and Her Amazing Disappearing Tire! And granted some odd part of me felt slightly amused by the whole thing, but really I was just pissed >_<
So I decide to go find Security ( much to the disappointment of my growing audience who I think expected me to do a trick or something from the way they all kept watching....) when one of the girl's says, "But how do you get here?"
I stopped, looked at her, took a good minute to realize she was being freakin' serious, and spoke very slowly, "I didn't drive here on three tires... I had four when I came here..."
"Oh... So it was stolen here?"
"Yyyeeessss."
"That sucks!"
Blink. Blink. "I'm going to get Security now..."
Wwwwhhhhaaaattttt? Did she honestly think I had driven there on THREE wheels!?
Anywho, so I decide to hunt down Security cuz I haven't a clue what to do---so as I'm walking back toward the mall I see a Security patrol car--so I wave, a lot....and a lot.... and those jerks freaking PASSED me! So as they passed, Jaclyn hit her annoyance quota and slapped their car as it passed----which finally got them to stop, cuz I might've chipped the paint or something...
So, he stops and I tell him what happened and he's all --"Are you sure?"
No.... I think I might've hallucinated my tire missing... Of course I'm freaking sure! Its not the Amazing Invisible Tire!
And I finally get him back there, where he looks at it and looks at it and LOOKS at it.... Then finally he goes, "Well, look at that..."
@_@
Then he says, "So, are you sure no one's playing a joke on you? Some friend?"
What kind of friends do you have, mister?! And if I thought it was a friend would I be freakin' out?! No! I'd be calling said friend and griping them out! And he asked me this like three times----how many times do I have to tell ya that none of my friends would steal my tire before ya believe me!?
Yeah, it was a BARREL of LAUGHS... Finally, he put on my donut, told me filling a police report would be a waste of my time, and went along his merry way.... Why do we even have Security patrolling the parking lot? I mean, really... It was Sunday--not even the busiest day---still daylight--barely even six---and yet they couldn't see someone stealing my tire?! I mean, come on! That has to take at least a few minutes! I wasn't even parked in the very back!
Ack, grr, argh--gnark!
And I have class, but there's more some I shall be back---aren't ya excited? On the up side, I'm probably going out Friday night---yeah---had to leave ya with something happy *^_____^*

| Hola!
Okay, so it's been awhile since I've posted here---but I've been BUSY! I swear! So first, the boring details---I'm in like my third week of school and dude, my classes are like uber hard *_* I'm taking History 475--Ancient Near East History, World Literature, Latin Mythology, Biology(<<easiest class, yay>>), Philosophy 401 (<<hardest class, not yay>>), and History 201--US History. I love my classes, really--these are the classes I've been waiting for, hard, detailed, open to discussion---only prob? I have no fucking idea what the ppl around me are talking about #_# I is an idge.
Nah, but I do need to get off my ass and actually start taking a more active role in my education---start reading books again, keep the TV on the history channel---and the bad thing is I LIKE doing those things, it's just that I also like sleep and movies and shopping and generally being a lazy slob, but yeah, that's gonna stop----there's a great new show on HBO called Rome--love, love and I just watched this show about Roman engineering and it rocked--I'm such a nerd *^_____^*
Anywho, I also work at Suncoast in the evenings and weekends---its an ok job, I like the ppl I work with, but I swear I can't remember anything when it comes to checking ppl out---plus, am total klutz---knocked over like a dozen things yesterday, eek >_< But ohsawell---and then to complete my busy little schedule, there's the whole Katrina thing---I live in LA, in the upper region, so my town's kinda packed with refugees, so on good days I try to volunteer---haven't had many opportunities lately, which sux but with school and work and then being just plain dead tired, yeah... But next week should be better, I think I've finally gotten caught up on all my classes, so will probably be heading to the civic center on the days I don't work---I wish I could volunteer money and supplies, but I have no money---all my work money is going into paying my tuition, so can only offer myself.
And I actually managed to update D&MW yesterday----go me, go me! Would've been sooner, but I recently bought a new laptop and being the genius I am didn't realize it didn't come with an A drive and all my storiers are on lovely floppy disks--so yeah, until I get an extension A drive thingy, updates are oh so random *^__^*
My mumsey is visiting me tomorrow--she needs a dress for a Mardi Gras inauguration ball and jessica needs one for Homecoming, so we're all going shopping before I have to go to work---I haven't seen her in weeks, so I'm kinda excited about it--I really miss her and my sister and Jessica---i wish my sister could come as well! But she had to study! and now i must clean since mum is coming early tomorrow! ciao! | | |
| Hola!
Well, I moved into my dorm today---didn't stay cuz tomorrow is Caleb's birthday and I promised to help Laura get everything ready, but I'll be back permanently Saturday---early Saturday cuz Jaclyn has to go work *_* Blargety, they told me I was off and then called me today--I don't really mind, I like working up there, just hate having to drive so early to Monroe ^_^ I's lazy.
But our dorm is like the size of a matchbox... Its way smaller than last year's and everything's situated funny---It'll look better once stuff's up on the walls (and JamJam, we should seriously look into some paint cuz I am seriously hatin' on these walls) but right now... I was like ACK! It looks like a really bad hotel room--the kind ya pay for by the hour *_*
Though! I have to admit once I unpacked most of my junk, it did start to look better and I'm sure that by Sunday, it'll be all prettified *^___^*
I'm on the second floor--which is way better than the third floor like last year--sooooo many stairs and I need the break considering Masur is like thirty minutes from any of my classes and that's gonna be one long, hot walk everyday #_# I shall die of heat stroke.
And despite all my whining, I'm actually ridiculously excited about moving back in---I'm just trying to hide my inner five-yr-old that wants to jump and down and throw confetti *^_~*
Anywho! Went to the mall--bought a shirt, which am going to return Saturday cuz I regret buying it now--too much money for a shirt I doubt I'll wear more than once---but I did get some new stickers for my car *^___^* Which made me happy 
Still haven't bought a bday prezzie for Caleb, but am about to run to wally world for last minute stuff (school supplies would be nice, too)
So ciao!
*^_______^* | | |
