| Now that I'm done being emo, here's other less interesting stuff |
[Nov. 25th, 2009|04:42 pm] |
Yesterday we did two performances for a daycare. One group was about 5 and one group was 18 months-3. The youngest ones were fidgety and kept running all over the stage and not paying attention to anything, but what can you expect. The older ones in the second group were pretty well behaved though. I guess 3 is the age that kids finally start appreciating plays and stuff? Apparently they've been practicing a performance to put on for their parents too, so maybe that helped them appreciate ours more. Haha.
Another performance tomorrow, and I think that may be the last one. The company is getting paid for it! But not us homeschooling types. Just the professionals and the director lady. Baw. I did get paid for my babysitting in October, though. Finally. $156! Not bad. A lot more than I was expecting, but then I hadn't been keeping track of my hours anyway. I will tuck this away in a box and put the box where I'll forget all about it and that is my master savings plan.
I want to see The Fantastic Mr. Fox. Maybe after tomorrow's performance.
All the crazy Americans on my flist keep talking about Thanksgiving and there's an event in WoW where the quest objectives pretty much consist of endless cooking and eating and it's all making me want stuffing and yams and cranberry sauce. Maybe I should buy some. But I don't want to cook for six people hrrrngh. Plus Mom would make me cook poultry or something. Poultry is gross.
The event's got me a few small instances of RP though, which is nice. I still haven't hit anything major yet, but then I've mostly been leveling until I can wear neat outfits. Har har. There was some big weekly event on Saturday, but when I went it was swarmed with a group of trolls (the griefer kind, not the Jamaican stereotype kind) hopping around and spamming obscenities so it ended early. Pff. Go figure.
Hmmm. Stuffing. |

So mom had specifically told me that the cruise was going to be in mid-march and not february and not the exact days Snap is going to be in Edmonton but she lied and now she's acting like shes been telling me this since the beginning which she has not. This isn't the first time she's been scatterbrained and spouted random bullshit that ends up being the exact opposite of the truth. But the timing really sucks this time wsefjerr
This isn't the first time something like this has happened either. I think the world is conspiring against me so I'm never allowed to meet an internet person ever. There's always summer at least
but man finding that out today was a pretty huge fml moment hahaha
god damn. |

It snowed on Saturday! And so ends the golden age. It's not terribly cold otherwise, so I guess I should be thankful for that much. Maybe it'll be warm enough for it to melt soon.
Zarquon's started eating again! His fur's looking better, too. Maybe he was just sick with some kind of flu. Hopefully he'll start gaining weight again soon. I'm a little upset Mom never ended up taking him to the vet though.
I've been trying to sort through my art supplies. I have way too many paintbrushes holy crap. Just too many supplies in general. I have no room in my little shelf compartment thing for them! I was hoping I might end up finding my DS in there, but no. My brothers have lost it. Why they even play it is beyond me they have their own. Except it's broken I guess. That's probably why. I hate not being able to have my own things you have no idea.
Whine whine whine, here is a survey thing.
You know how sometimes people on your friendslist post about stuff going on in their life, and all of a sudden you think "Wait a minute? Since when were they working THERE? Since when were they dating HIM/HER? Since when???" And then you wonder how you could have missed all that seemingly pretty standard information, but somehow you feel too ashamed to ask for clarification because it seems like info you should already know? It happens to all of us sometimes.
Please copy the topics below, erase my answers and put yours in their place, and then post it in your journal! Please elaborate on the questions that would benefit from elaboration. One-Word-Answers seldom help anyone out.

The cruise is booked! The plans are made! I'm still struggling to believe that such an awesome plan is actually going to follow through for once. But. It looks like it will!
And what a ship! Dance clubs and a theatre and 24-hour food service hmmm. Which is nice, since it means I can be as nocturnal as I want to be and not have to cry over sleeping through the regular food hours.
I really have to hurry and get my passport all done. Hahaha. I'm so afraid of messing it up somehow. I'll have to have my mommy sit and walk me through it like a big girl. :'|
Is it March yet? |

I'm getting that filling tomorrow morning. I have to wake up early and walk to the dentist and everything. What a way to start the day. Needles and pain.
And we ran out of toothpaste. That'll impress them.
So fill this out and leave me lots of nice presents to look at when I come back with a numb mouth.

I...
I had another WoW dream...
I thought I was over this!
Those dusty old discs on my shelf... They're mocking me. It would only take about forever to reinstall and download necessary patches, and then my computer would probably lag too much to actually play it properly. That's the biggest thing holding me back, really. (EDIT: Oh did I seriously still have it installed this whole time lololol) Oh yeah and the monthly costs, those suck too.
But but but. Tauren.
Screw this I'm going back to bed. |

Several hours yesterday were spent going from place to place putting on performances for young children. It was fun, but tiring. My stomach has been feeling kind of gross for the past several days, so that made it especially difficult, but... I pulled through in the end! And then I get to go do another one at... some point, I'll have to double-check the exact date. And then I think that's it for the year. They're doing another acting thing in February. I want to go to that.
OH. But I might not be able to, because Mom's planning for all of us to go on some kind of cruise for a week in February. Who knows if this plan will actually come to fruition this time or not. But it would be nice. It sounds exciting, anyway!
She's finally agreed to take Zarquon to the vet too. Possibly today. Apparently she was avoiding it because she never got either of the cats any of their shots for their whole lives. What. That would have been good to know before we let them wander the great outdoors for years. No wonder something's wrong with him.

It has recently come to my attention (again) that some people are under the impression that I don't like them. Or they think I'm scary and intimidating or something. Is it my obnoxious ALLCAPS OF RAGE or what?
Seriously you guys I don't understand. I'm the least scary person I know.
Well, you're all silly and if I didn't actually like you guys you probably wouldn't be on my flist to begin with. |

ANON MEME
It's about me, not about RP. SNAP, I'M LOOKING AT YOU.
Speaking of myself, watercolour class was about self portraits today. I really hate looking in the mirror.Especially those stupid little ones with the EXTREME CLOSE-UP. But I think the portrait itself is coming along passably so far. I actually managed to mix a close skin tone. I was amazed.
Of course the works themselves are all left at the class so you guys don't get to see them until... the end of the class I guess. At which point I'll have to destroy all evidence.
Oh yeah. Turns out my brother got arrested because he was shoplifting a chocolate bar from Safeway "because he was bored." Is it wrong of me to hope he has a criminal record that will make life difficult for him forever? If he's dumb enough to get caught doing something so petty he deserves it. |

Post 10 positive things that have happened to you recently. They don't have to be big or impressive, as long as they pleased you or brought a smile to your face.
1. Well wishers from last post! Thanks you guys. ;o; Hopefully I can get him checked out this week aaa. 2. Waking up every morning with Zarquon's fuzzy butt in my face. Nothing like a lungful of fur to start your day, followed by cuddles. 3. Yesterday we performed in front of a bunch of kids. They were cute and pretty well behaved. 4. Chinchin actually let me pick him up the other day. It didn't last long, but it's progress. 5. Watching Jurassic Park on Sunday night. 6. It's so warm! Hovering around the 0 mark instead of being -20. I love it. 7. I'm just about done being sick. Finally. 8. I bought a custard mochi for cheap and it was actually really good. I want another. 9. Finally making an art post. And people liking it. 10. The fact that I could fill up this list. OKAY FINE this is a cop out I was drawing a blank for a last one. That sounds so emo but I'm actually just really bad at remembering things when I need to. So.
Oh, and there's watercolour class tonight too.
And now to go take a long hot shower woop woop.
edit: the phone rang just as I was about to shower and IT WAS A POLICE OFFICER MY BROTHER HAS BEEN ARRESTED holy fuck I totally told mom he'd end up getting in trouble at the rate he was going I SAID IT JUST LAST WEEK hahaha wow |

Zarquon used to be such a fat, paunchy cat. Now he's just skin and bones. He won't eat much of anything. I'm worried and I want to take him to the vet, but I can't carry him there on my own and Mom's putting off actually making any kind of appointment. I don't want to wake up one morning and find him dead under my dresser.
That's my woe for the week. |

Last night Mom spent so much time trying to convince me I didn't want to go swimming after all for whatever reason I decided it just wasn't worth it and stayed home. Needless to say there was no movie either. So I did nothing. Well, I did end up going to T&T just before closing and blowing some money on custard-filled mochi and dried seaweed. Yes more food to gorge on that will get me places in life.
Mom's also trying to convince me to move out of this room and back into my old one because she really wants this one to turn into an office area. Well, hm, maybe if you didn't steal my old room without any warning while I wasn't even home I wouldn't be occupying the one you want now. I'm not going back to my old room now. I have too much stuff for it to fit nicely into this one and the old one's half its size. I need to get rid of stuff anyway though aaa.
I'll probably come back from Dad's after new years to find my room taken over anyway. Har har.
WAH WAH WAH STOP WHINING. Okay. Maybe I'll go see a movie by myself today. Like a cool kid. The weather's nice enough to walk. ...In November. What. |

I may or may not be going to see a movie tonight. Leaning more towards not because the person I've been trying to contact about details and going out to do stuff is likely blowing me off again. I only even bother because Mom practically forces me every now and again. Stop trying to govern my social life, mom, I don't even like being near people for prolonged periods of time. I never have.
But anyway I figure this is the last time I'll try with him. I KEEP TELLING MYSELF THAT EVERY TIME BUT I DUNNO.
Well if he doesn't reach me back then I'll end up going to the waterpark at West Ed. which is better than a movie. I'll get some exercise in, probably... Hopefully it's not too packed on a Friday night. It's not like it's summer anymore. I still remember getting a free, non-crowded day at the waterpark for the whole Christmas in Wonderland thing. We were waiting for hours while the film crew did who knew what. At least we got to do stuff. The other times it was sitting in a cramped room waiting and waiting. Once we were even told at the end "oh oops guess we don't need you today lol."
Freezer Burn was definitely a big step up from that. I mean, we even got paid for that one. I am a professional extra, baby.
So yes. Swimming sounds good. I guess that means I will have to shave after all. Here I thought No-Shave November would be a cinch due to wearing pants and long sleeves the whole month anyway, but if there are going to be bathing suits involved...
:'| baww I can't accomplish anything |

I don't care if you've seen it before, watch it now. Watch it while keeping in mind that it was filmed over 100 years ago.
That's... I don't know why but that is so surreal it freaks me right the fuck out. I CANNOT COMPREHEND TIME'S TRUE FORM. |

I'm feeling slightly better. Not so dizzy anymore, and the coughing is mostly gone. Except when I do cough it feels like I'm spitting up a bunch of water WHAT. Now it's just sneezing and xXxTREME salivation for whatever reason. I guess it was for the best I stayed home from painting class last night. I feel bad about it because them was expensive lessons and I want to learn to do watercolours and I can't do that if I miss the class, but.
WELL ANYWAY I figure I'll just practice watercolour all by my lonsesome today. Hopefully I'll feel well enough to go to acrylics class tonight.
I had a strange dream the other night. I had a crush on this boy who turned out to be my friend's brother but he was dating someone else I knew and there was this big series of coincidences and it was a whole comedy of errors and the weirdest part is that neither boy nor friend actually exist in real life. And if they do I've never actually met them.
My thoughts have been so disjointed lately whooooooo |

I have been so sick since Halloween. It started off as a small dry cough but now it's a huge not-so-dry cough and a fever and I feel so dizzy. It's too early for me to be getting sick again. Didn't I just get over something? God damn. It's probably because the weather has been so inconsistent. That usually gets me all sick for whatever reason.
It's just a really dumb time because I can hardly stay awake to do anything. I'm three days behind NaNo baww. And I was coughing through the whole drama rehearsal thing. Did I mention that audition workshop thing? Anyway, we're going to be performing for kids at some point. I hope I'm better by then. And then I'm going to be sick all over my art classes too.
I am just a walking pity party.
Maybe I got pig flu or something I don't know. Apparently that's back to being a big thing. There are places with signs saying "DO NOT ENTER IF YOU HAVE SWINE INFLUENZA" and really calling it INFLUENZA just makes it sound like you'll turn into a were-pig by night, what with influenza being due to the evil influence of the moon or something. Wasn't that it? Idk.
AT LEAST MY EAR FEELS BETTER. Now to go pass out. |

I know I shouldn't open this but at the same time it is the most intriguing spam I have ever received. I think it's the full stop that makes it.
HMMM I should just open it from a computer that isn't mine.
So I had this really vivid dream about that one redhead from Kuroshihtzunojutsu or whatever the hell it's called despite me being not familiar with the fandom at all besides seeing posts on dear_mun. It had to do with life stories written in... I want to say it was Polish for some reason. I don't even. And then there was a part at some sort of beachside resort city and there were rooms with loud music and for some reason I was trying to hoard Chinese food away from the rest of my family.
My subconscious is pretty weird.
Tomorrow night I have to make sure I have plenty of snackoos and hot chocolate so I can just start writing pretentious long-winded crap come midnight. Let's see just how many short stories I can do. Maybe I'll finally do that WWII zombie thing. THAT'S RIGHT WHIT I STILL WANT TO WRITE IT.
I am missing so many of my DVDs because my brothers keep taking them and never putting them back and they get lost all over the place and hrrrngh hrrrrrrrrrrrngh |
