09:04 pm I should probably consider packing at some point. I do leave at 5AM tomorrow morning. I've had a fun couple of days leading up to my trip though, which I'll discuss.
Friday Jason and I briefly stopped by Breadstretchers to see Jeff's band, only to discover that they wouldn't be playing until 11. Deciding that was really late, we went back to his house and played Halo, because nights out on the town just aren't our style.
Saturday I went to see The Omen with Jessica. My movie experience would have been much more satisfying, had she not spent a fair chunk of time complaining about my being 4 minutes late. Even though she missed, at most, one preview. After that, we drove around for awhile.
Sunday, I went over to Jason's again. More Halo. But this time Zac and Max came over, so we changed things up and played pool and foosball, which, being far less nerdy activities, made me feel better about myself.
Monday morning I planned to pack. Later that day, I declared the day's packing a failure.
Tuesday Jane baked a cake, so, I went to Washington park to eat that. Afterward we went back to my house and played Duck Hunt, some various games, and this rather ridiculous board game my parents have but had never played called "The Gender Gap," which had questions about the standard width of lawnmowers and what was the most time you could spend finishing making dinner after guests had arrived. We also watched the fun facts of Chronicles of Narnia, which were really not so much fun facts as useless trivia about various things. The best one being a scene where the kids are walking through a forest and the fun facts begin talking about plum pudding, for no reason at all. After that, I went to Over the Hedge with Jason and Elyse.
And today I've gotten stuff I'll need, like a memory card for my camera and whatnot.
But that's about it, so I guess I'll be wrapping up. Everyone should leave comments, as, that will only serve to better my Hawaiian experience. Current Mood: calm

12:25 am alright, so, there is no possible away i could update with something that could make up for the fact that i haven't so much as considered updating for quite a few months. i mean, it would really have to be a fantastic update to make up for that long absence.
a fantastic update that i don't care to write at the moment. so i figure i'll start simple, and try to ease my way back in.
first off, summer is going fine. i quit work.
oh i was completely let down on my last day though. now granted, i built it up a lot in my head. like to the point where i felt like i should have received cake and balloons and general fanfare. but my high expectations do not make up for how let down i was. two people bothered said bye to me!
i was appauled enough by that to steal an orange highlighter, because stealing insignificant things is how i choose to fight my battles.
other than that though, not a lot has been going on. graduating from high school and all, but, that is much too far in the past for me to make a big deal out of now.
other than that though, things go as they usually go.
...and now i think i'll end this update. Current Mood: chipper

09:42 pm well, i suppose i've put making an update off long enough. it has been nearly two months. and you know, two months is just quite a long time to not mention what's been going on.
school is going alright. i'm already bored of stimler, and i can tell i'm not going to like how social issues is being handled, but other than that it's good. i miss photography because, for one, it was vastly preferable to environmental science. also, with art class right before it, i had three hours straight in the art room. damn semester-long classes.
work remains work and is not fun. but, i get by.
homecoming was two weekends ago, but, it was really fun. though i grew weary of all the pictures that were taken from the time i got to ashley's to the end of the night. still though, that night ended on danielle's kitchen floor watching wedding crashers, and, i think that's a pretty good way to end any night.
so overall, things are going pretty well for me. i am growing increasingly concerned about how close this college business is getting though. it feels weird to be almost done with high school.
but, that's about that for now. Current Mood: hopeful

10:39 pm Ugh... so, Eric Enlow won't update his own damn journal, so I guess I'll have to do it for him. Umm this is the ever-lovely Jessica Gottstein, by the way.
So... what's new in Eric's life, you may ask? Well, to be honest, I haven't the faintest. He has been spending a whole lot of time lying to me about how he could beat me at any game -- which, let's face it, we all know THAT'S not true -- AND calling me a dirty slut. Pretty oustanding guy, eh?
Hmm.. what else do I have to say? I think I should probably make it a point to NOT use and ellipse in the next paragraph.
...
SCREW THIS! I'M DONE!
P.S. Love only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades. Current Mood: exanimate Current Music: I'M DEAF, BITCH

12:54 am i was just ordered to update and dedicate this post to jessica, cause it's her birthday. even though, "technically", she's not actually 19 until around 6:59pm. a fact she just threw in my face when i wished her happy birthday. Current Mood: sleepy

09:25 pm oh fine, i'll update. but people not stop making me do it! danielle went jedi on me.

this weekend was nice. friday i saw a couple people i hadn't seen in a long time, and saturday was the play, which wasn't bad. a touch slow, but, not bad.
if i was less apathetic, i would put facts about my weekend in this update. or maybe i'd talk about how jessica gottstein is currently reciting tenacious d quotes to me. but as it stands, i won't, cause that's a good deal of effort.
so, i'm done. Current Mood: curious

it was a pretty decent weekend.
saturday was the buddy walk, the walk for kids with downs syndrome. my family is really big into it, so as such, i go and help out. even though really i spent more time having a war with zac on the swingset than i did doing productive things.
then that night i went to a haunted house, and then steak n shake, which was all pretty enjoyable.
and a couple other people have done it, so: ( survey )

10:30 pm apparently i am not allowed to enjoy a nice long hiatus from livejournal. but i try! i try very hard to.
first quarter is over. and it went by really fast. i have a feeling that senior year will be over before i know it, and i've realized, there are going to be parts of high school that i'll miss a lot. but as it stands, i've no homework and things are nice. so i'm just going to enjoy this.
work is work. but my paychecks are really nice. but sometimes i start to feel like mail has become far too large a part of my life.
things in general are going pretty well. i'm content with the world.
and more than that, not a whole lot worth noting has happened. Current Mood: sleepy

10:41 pm my journal was deleted for an entire eight hours. and then i was talked out of such nonsense. but still, i don't know about it anymore. Current Mood: curious

12:15 am i never react well when i'm being told to update, then i'm suddenly placed under pressure to make it good. but oh well, it can't hurt anything.
today was comprised mostly of finishing that twenty minute psychology speech on sleeping disorders. but at least it's done, except for the whole presenting it part, which is on tuesday. and i need to choose a video to show a clip from. my mom offered one of dogs with narcolepsy, but, it was a bit sad to see dogs randomly fall asleep and fall over.
oh and today also involved coming to terms with the fact that i will never make an adequate spy. but i think i can get by.
hm, i think i'm done for the moment. Current Mood: tired

05:26 pm this could be interesting, if people do it.

Post twice if you'd like, and then put this in your journal to see what your friends (and perhaps others who you don't even realize read it) have to say. Current Mood: okay

09:12 pm tonight was surprisingly fun, more fun than i thought it would be to play Somewhere Over the Rainbow and Tiny Bubbles for a luau for the elderly.
but jeff, nathan and i did it with style.
i chose to not take part in limbo and wearing straw hats, though.
this little five year old kid was really bothersome. he claimed he could drum better than i ever could, and going on about how he could also sing better than nathan. he was a punk.
but it was still pretty fun.
school is going. i get to start my day tomorrow with physical fitness. arg. an hour and a half of weight lifting is not how i like to start my days.
oh well. Current Mood: tired

August 17th, 2005
08:58 pm ah, school tomorrow. summer really slipped by when i wasn't looking.
had a tiny band practice today. played some songs, had fun.
other than that though it was a pretty nonchalant last day of summer. Current Mood: calm

11:47 pm okay, a game called worst case scenario gives questions, and you have to pick what would be the best thing to do in the given situation.
however, i have to ask.
if you're being attacked by a shark, would you punch it in the gills? because, maybe that's what you're supposed to do, but i can only see it eating me shortly after i punched it. Current Mood: curious

12:47 am okay danielle i'll do a real update.
so i'm reviewing my summer, and i'd have to say it wasn't too bad. even though i've been pretty reclusive for most of it.
next week though, i'm a senior. and that's crazy to me. because it doesn't seem long ago at all that i was a freshmen, and i was still impressed by the idea of a laptop during class. and i didn't even talk to jason or most people. and i was mildly afraid of ben and his talk of llamas.
but now i'm a senior, and my laptop has been given to my sister because i never use it nor care about it, i talk to way more people, and i am not afraid of ben, nor does he talk of llamas.
crazy.
now, provided that my school doesn't do anything too ridiculous, (i mean beyond what it has been doing) this should be an interesting year. i want my schedule though, and they refuse to give it to me.
now i'm done though. Current Mood: contemplative
|
12:45 am look! i updated.
only not really, because, now i'm done. Current Mood: curious

August 6th, 2005
12:32 am hm.
you all know my life and how it goes. i'm not gonna bore you with too many details.
i'm currently teaching myself guitar, because, that seems as good a thing to do as any.
i have a rough outline for my current writing project, i just need to start adding some more words to it now.
i'm also supposed to paint a picture of bora bora before monday, for my mom's birthday, as that's what she said for me to do today. maybe she wasn't serious about it, but, i would love to have a surprise like that. although, if i actually do decide to paint something, i may try doing a panda, because my mom has been checking in daily on that new panda baby that was born in some zoo.
i get a new digital camera tomorrow. the reason for it is definitely the most ridiculous i've ever heard, but, i don't really intend to complain about it.
and other than that? i don't think there's much else for me to say. Current Mood: hungry

July 21st, 2005
12:49 am I'm going to update this, because, I feel like I should. The bands going well, after me and Jeff completely dropped everything we've done so far and started over.
I've been spending a lot of my time lately being less social. I should really stop that. But, I'm getting a lot more reading done, which is nice. However, if I'm not being social and I'm bored then I run the risk of going outside and swimming by myself, and when it comes to swimming, one is a very lonely number.
I also want to swim at Jason's, because, Jason has the coolest little foam dolphin shaped things to help someone float, which I thought was fun. Current Mood: okay
