Well.. What a weekend.
After work, dad was a little bit late picking me up, but it was okay in the end and I made the bus.
Only after riding said bus for an hour, and have it pull up where I had gotten on, did I realize it was the wrong fucking bus.
Fuck me.
So I caught the right bus, and got off at the right stop. Juliet and her mom picked me up, and we drove home, and had pizza for dinner. It was nice, and of course Juliet and her younger brother Jay, and her dad were there too. I love how I feel a part of their family, and this weekend I felt like Juliet and I kind of reconnected... It's hard for us to have girls nights, we live too far apart, in completely different towns, and only see each other on Sundays at dance. So this time was precious, every second was great.
After dinner, we headed down to the cabin we were renting for the evening. It was so beautiful down there, the cabin was just above the beach, and surrounded by forest. There are other cabins around as well, but it was nice to have a little reminder we weren't completely cut off from civilization. I wouldn't care either way though, really. The inside was quaint, wood floors and walls, one living room area that had two comfy chairs, one tiny bed pushed up against the wall, a table and two other chairs, a fireplace, a stove, mini fridge, counter space etc, and then a window that took up most of the wall that faced the ocean. Unfortunately it was pitch black outside, so we couldn't see what our view was like.
We got some chill music going, and pulled out some ciders and beers. Ciders...So...Yummyyyy. I had a couple, and then we had our weed cookies! I think in total I had three. I don't quite remember.
We just chatted and laughed together, talked about numerology and other random things.
We tried to summon spirits to a Wiji board, but nothing happened.. I was relieved and disappointed by this-- I'm pretty interested to know if there really are ghosts and such, but at the same time demons and ghosts are one of my biggest fears, next to getting possessed or becoming crazy.
Well, I guess I'm already a little crazy.
We played a fun card game and ate some other munchies. Finally, the boys left, and Juliet, her mom and I had some girl time. The whole while I was a little tipsy, couldn't quite walk straight, and I felt rather giddy.. Just warm and happy and I laughed a lot. It was a cozy feeling, I really liked it. But I'm not sure if I was drunk or high or a little bit of both. Juliet only had soft ciders, with barely any alcohol in 'em, but she had like 7 cookies. She got pretty zonked later in the night. It was hilarious.
The three of us headed down to the beach. Well, tried to. We walked through the forest in the dark, with umbrellas and flashlights, following the trails and the sound of the ocean waves. It was beautiful, and really fucking creepy. Every so often, there was a deep song of rumbles, I could feel the strength of that shit in me. It definitely wasn't the sound of the waves. My first thought was like a tsunami or earthquake or something like that. Juliet was slightly freaked as well, so we headed back to the cabin before we had even reached the sea. Once we got back, we went out onto our porch that faced the sea. Past some trees and more cabins down the hill, I could see the unnaturally white crest of the waves rolling in. The rain was pounding steadily, and it was amazing. The thunder continued, but then something new happened.
Lightning.
It was inspiringly beautiful. Just utterly phenomenal. It was sheet lightening, and lasted a couple of seconds at a time. It seemed to switch the night back into day. I loved it. This happened a couple more times, and then me and Juliet headed back inside to crash. I was exhausted, but warm and giggly and happy too.
The next morning, I woke up and saw our view. Green shrubs stretched past our window, and one huge long tree stood in the middle. The plants continued downhill, towards a couple more cabins. There I saw the waves, and where the sea met the sky. It was cloudy out, and still raining. A window was open in the living room so I could still hear it. We had a hearty breakfast and then left for home.. Such a great time.
Anyways, I won't bore you with other details about my day. Tomorrow is the first day of the new semester, but apparently half of the day will be wasted by some stupid sports ceremony. Probably another one that's all about the obnoxious football team that I frankly have never given a shit about. Whatever, extra time for me and Gray to cuddle somewhere else on our own!
I'm looking forward to this semester.. God, I can't believe half the school year is done with.
Oh, I applied for a job for the Spring Break, I should get an email on Feb 3 if I'm to have an interview.. Hope I do, if I work all Spring Break I could make bigg bucks. But it will be a camp for kids thing, so more babysitting stuff... Maybe the kids will be slightly well behaved, that would be nice. Birthday attending has been extra fun lately, with barfing incidents and getting kicked by random spoiled brats has been making me even more keen on child care. But I really can't complain. I love my job, and am very grateful to have one.
Anyways, enough rambling. It's late, and I have to wake up early tomorrow.
Cream, I'm very glad you had a good day, you deserve them!! Love you, and miss you hun.
More news another day!

7 Minutes
So. Yes, I haven't written in quite some time. And now I have around 7 minuets to say everything that I want, I probably won't finish, but I will do my best.
EXAMS ARE DONEEE!!! Finalllyy, so much stress has washed away, and I'm ready for the new semester. I'm also ready to have clear skin; I completely broke out during these past weeks, stress and lack of sleep = horrid combo.
Jan 26th was one of my bestfriend's birthday. I'll call her Juliet, because she looks a little bit like Amanda Seyfried, who played that girl in some chick flick. Yeup.
I didn't call her until 9 pm on her special day.. We had texted briefly in the morning, but that was all the communication we'd had. So pretty much what I'm saying is I forgot her birthday. Some fucking "best friend" I am. I feel like the biggest ass hole on this planet. She didn't seem very happy about it either (well duh) and when I apologized again yesterday, she kept saying she wasn't upset, but I dunno.
Today after work (which is where I'm walking to in now 2 minuets) I'm going to bus down to her place. We are then going to drive out to a cabin that we're renting, and have some magical brownies. My first time having weed in any shape or form. I'm a lil nervous I guess, like what if I'm allergic to it or something??
Well, times up. I have a lottt more I want to say but that will unfortunately have to wait.
I'll write soon, for reals this time :)

Drifting
I'm backkkk! How long has it been? Exactly 2 weeks?
Yup. But nothing new has really been going on.
Just school, and studys. Every freakin day is just the sammmeeee ollldddd routineee... Provincial exams are coming up, so soon I'll be even more stressed! Yay, fun times.
What else have I been up to.. Well I'm on a net ball team, I joined in November, I think. It's pretty fun, but unfortunately I can't go to the Winter Games as was planned, since I have a dance competition on the same weekend that I had told my mom and dance coach I'd go to a long while ago. Of course, some of the other girls on my netball team were being bitchy about it. That includes a friend of Cream's, actually, who i will call Annie. She pisses me off.
Anywho, I had my first real netball game yesterday, against an experienced team from outta town. I was the only young girl from all the newbies that came, the rest I played with and against were adults.
Kinda funny. I get shit for not being able to go to the Winter Games, but everyone else, who all said they were coming to this one little game, didn't show. That does show however, in my opinion, some HYPOCRISY.
I don't know if anyone's noticed, if there is anyone reading besides Gray and Cream, that each one of my post titles, are actually names from the chapters in the Inheritance Series? All credit to Christopher Paolini, he's just so awesome I can't get over it.
What else is new? Well.... IT SNOWED YESTERDAY!!!!!! Finallyy, snow.
I'm havin a blank here, not sure what else is new with me that is of any significance.
I gotta head out to work soon, I do birthday parties at a rec center, pretty crazy stuff.

Promises, New and Old
11:21 pm December 31st, 2011
I can't believe it's been a year. Wow.
What should my goal be this time 'round?
I guess I'll just start by listing shit.
This year, I will make more time for my friends. I need to learn patience, and to refrain from over reacting. To learn to just let things be... I had the same problem last year. guess I still gotta work on it.
I think I should also relax a little more too. Also, I'll try not to judge people on first impressions either, 'cause they can often be wrong.
On a less dramatic note, this year I'll start making handmade gifts for people most of the time presents need to be given. Yeah.
And I think savin' up more money for the future is a good idea.. I have enough clothes I guessss, so I wont buy such things unless I absolutely love them.
This year I'll also work harder on prioritizing and planning out my time. No more procrastinating either! But hey, hell of a lot easier said then done.
Lastly...
This year, I will try to be less afraid.
Less afraid to be on my own, less afraid to have things not go as planned, less afraid to not have control. I think I need to really learn that life can't be an organized series of events; random shit happens and I needn't react so negatively to it.
Last year, I had 3 main goals.
To eat healthy, have respect, and let things be.
This year, I've boiled it down to a bigger set of smaller things..ish.
I don't know if thats an improvement, but if it isn't, I have all 2012 to make these resolutions count.
