i know i never write in here but i feel like venting...

so i got rear ended almost a month ago to the day. i was going to get it appraised today. i know im dumb for waiting so fuckin long. but i just got my car back yesterday cause it failed inspection last week and it was in the shop ever since getting fixed. $100 later it finally is thank god. so today im on my way to get it reinspected and then afterward appraised and i get rear ended again. so now i have to deal with two claims from two different insurance companies and fixing my car because this time my tail light was cracked.

It was easter and the first holiday in a long time that the whole fam was together.

2005-10-23T19:15:27Z

I haven't felt much like updating lately but since i'm really bored i figured i might as well... this weekend has been the most fun i've had in a long time...

...no one was around campus so i dragged bobby back to chicopee friday night to meet everyone... we met a the McD's as kryto was getting off work...we had fun conversations and many laughs before we decided to go elsewhere...we ended up going to krytos for a little so she could change out of her work clothes...moe moe met us up there...and then we met up at my house...we had planned to watch a movie but that never quite happened...we hung out in my basement for a while until bobby decided to kidnap me...literally...and made me go with him to friendlys...after that we went back to my house and hung out for a while...made smoothies and as my mom told me the next day apparently made a mess...everyone had left by 11 so me and bobby headed back to school...

...saturday was quite interesting as well...i first woke up around 9ish when melissa was getting ready to leave...and then woke up about an hour or so later when her phone rang... then my phone rang like 2 seconds later...then the dorm phone rang...by then i was pretty much awake...me and bobby went to the dc for some breakfast and then took the pvta to the springfield bus terminal to meet his friend natalia...i learned the bus terminal is really sketchy...we didn't do too much when we got back to school...but decided to go to the movies...originally just the 3 of us and then it ended up being like 6 people...all squished into one tiny car...torturing bobby with multiple songs by Kelly clarkson...we went and saw in her shoes...it was so funny...but it was wicked long...the ride home from the movies was just as interesting...it was pouring rain when we left the theater...so by the time we got to tafts car we were all soaked...when we got back to school we decided to have a quad sleepover...we were all going to go to bed around 1...until libby showed up at like 1:30..then we decided to go riding in the expensive lexus that she borrowed from the people she babysits for because they were too drunk to drive her back to school... being spontaneous is awesome...we finally went to bed when we got back...

...we all got up around 10:30 this morning and went to brunch... i attempted to go back to sleep after but it just didn't work...Natalia left around 2 and now i'm just hanging around my room... i am meeting the family at carabbas for dinner around 4...yummy...

blah...

2005-10-19T23:42:34Z

so i guess it's been a while since i've updated...i haven't had the motivation to write in here lately...and there hasn't been much worth writing about...classes are the same...i kinda wish i could drop history it is so insanely boring...

...i'm going home for a little while tomorrow to watch my sisters soccer game... good ol chicopee sports haha... its gonna be senior night so that at least should be interesting...for some reason it just seems like i am home every thursday...i guess thats cause i pretty much am...in the words of sanchez "Que Coincidencia" ...

...i met with my advisor this past friday...looks like my schedule is gonna be kinda crappy next semester...but atleast i have bio, chem, and spanish... which is more than i can say for this semester...

...i guess thats all for now...

blah...

2005-10-14T22:26:21Z

not much to write of this week...class was the same as always...i had a meeting with my advisor today...my schedule is probably gonna suck next semester...but atleast i've worked it out so i can take bio and spanish...
and i just want this rain to end...it just makes me feel so unmotivated and like i just want to sleep all the time...and i def have hw i could be doing... o well...

...looks like the parents are coming to visit tomorrow...but who knows what time...i guess it depends when my dad gets out of work...

the corn made me do it...

2005-10-12T03:13:35Z

Thursday- i had my last shift of work...yay...and it was pay day...after work i went home for a little while and got my Ipod...went back to school and had to pack for montreal...i knew i'd forget something(the software for my Ipod) so i listened to the same 19 songs all weekend...

Friday- spanish felt like the class that wouldn't end...she gave us this ridiculous packet of worksheets...she was lecturing in front of the class and i don't think anyone was paying attention to her...not that we understand anything she says anyway...after class i headed back to my room to grab my stuff, then i was headed to montreal...we left campus around 12 and got into the hotel around 7 or 7:30...it was the sketchiest looking place i've ever seen...and our room was tiny as hell...but we didn't stay long...we dropped of our bags then went off to explore montreal...we walked into this restaurant and the hostess didn't speak english...we had to make megan talk to her...then they gave us menus that were all in french... finally a waiter that spoke english came over and gave us ones that were in english...after that we went looking for a bar...we found a bunch of sketchy ones...including one with a bunch of 50 year old guys that were smoking something...we eventually went to Peel Pub which i guess is where all the people our age go...we didn't stay long though...we each had a drink then headed back to the hotel...

Saturday-we had breakfast and a meeting with the chaperones at 10... apparently our hotels idea of a continental breakfast is toast and croussaints...we went to the olympic park and walked through the bio dome... we named a puffin jack-jack, and he became our mascot for the rest of the trip... we had dinner at the hard rock cafe at around 6...it wasn't that great and they had a band thing going on so it was so insanely loud... after that me and meggie walked around St. Catherine street for a while and eventually ran into Bobby, Mike, and julie... we ended up going to peel pub with them...we hung out there for a while, then headed over to Madhatters... a kind of sketchy, but at the same time interesting bar...we hung around there for a while then headed back to the hotel...

Sunday-we went to breakfast around 11...after that me, bobby, and meggie headed over to the sketchy metro station to meet Meggies friend brandon... the four of us walked around old montreal for a while, until me and bobby somehow ended up split up from brandon and meggie... me and bobby walked around china town and ate at the biggest buffet i've ever seen...the food was odd...i couldn't find general's chicken which was a little disappointing, but we were maybe a little too entertained by the jello on my plate...it kept sliding to one side of my plate, and i made a video of the two jello cubes racing...after that we walked around chinatown a little more, then we met up with meggie and B again...we then brought B to see our sketchy hotel...we ended up going out to dinner with like a dozen people, then later i went with bobby, mike, and julie to the madhatter again... the anti-yankee sentiment there made me happy...after that we stopped at this little convenience store, with a sketchy arab guy that does coke...we then met up with a couple more people and hung out at peel pub for a while...i'm not even going to go into the details of that...after that i walked back to the hotel with nick while everyone else went to a strip club...

Monday- we got up around 9, went to breakfast, and got back in the vans and left at 10...after many bathroom breaks, and lunch at some restaurant in vermont, we finally got back to westfield around 7...it was the longest ride ever...i think we were all going crazy...when i got back to my room i plugged my Ipod into the computer to charge it and it randomly decided to work so i was finally able to put more songs on it...

blah...

2005-10-05T22:49:02Z

-tuesday...i had lit...we went over our readings...and she told us about the test we have on thursday...wish me luck on that...then i had lab...nothing too interesting to write of there...he handed back our labs from last week... i got an 86...i'm doing wicked good in chem its exciting...and i got out like an hour early...i got lunch at the commuter caf after...BLT's are yummy...then i headed back to the room for a while...i got a little bit of hw done suprisingly...around 5 i went to the DC with bobby and ate some scary chicken...then headed back to my room...a little while later me and bobby ventured over to Walmart...and we managed to piss off an employee...but it was fun...probably the most fun i've had at a walmart... we had grabbed a couple of cases of soda...and then decided that we should prob get a carriage...bobby got a carriage then when he got back we put the soda in the carriage and went down the next aisle...a couple minutes later i noticed that the carriage was leaking...we didn't know what to do...then an employee walked by and he just told bobby to put the box down...then we were about to go down the next aisle when the guy yelled at us for pushing our carriage through the spilled soda...oops..lol...we just laughed so hard... then we headed back to campus and i think i maybe attempted some hw...watched a little tv then went to bed...

-wednesday...my alarm went off at 7:45...then i hit the snooze button...then i just decided to skip class...so i got up about an hour later and headed to chemistry...nothing too interesting there...we took notes like usual...i'm so excited though...i understand everything he has taught us so far...then i had spanish which was basically the same as usual...i got an 84 on the test...not too bad considering i didn't study...and i got to read the letter that brian wrote to megan...it was so hypocritical...then meggie was trying to explain the whole brian situation to mike...then when i was about to leave class she got all amused by my pants...apparently she has never seen cargo pants before, she was like they have so many pockets...it was kind of entertaining... after class i went to the dc...then headed back to my room for some studying...around 5 i went to the DC with bobby, Katie, and Alisha (i think thats her name)...now i'm just hanging around my room...

...Ange is on her way to Thailand...she flew out of JFK this morning...we talked real quck around 4 before her 2nd flight left...she said she would call me as soon as she could but who knows when that will be...probably as long as it takes for them to set up her phone there...and even then its not easy, because there is like an 11 hour time difference...

assorted details of the weekend...

2005-10-04T01:49:42Z

saturday night i went out with meggie, kryto, and terry...we wondered walgreens and were amused by the 20 questions thing...then we chilled in the walmart parking lot for a little trying to figure out what we could do but we couldn't really think of much so we resorted to random driving...we ended up driving through my old neighborhood and saw my old house...its so different now...i think after that we all just kinda went home

...sunday morning i slept til like 11...then hung around the house a little...i later went to my 4 year old cousins soccer game...it was the cutest thing ever...then me, ange, and katherine went to the mall to try and get Ipods but apparently they've discontinued the mini so we just went home... after some searching on ebay we found some and ordered them... they're pink but its all good...we had the family over around 3 as a going away party for ange...i won't see her again until probably may or june...unless i can persuade my mom that she wants to go with me in march to visit her...ange was already trying to get her to visit anyway...i so need a passport...but anyway...it was really good to see the family since i haven't seen them since before i started school...i guess i must have headed back to school around 9...i brought all my stuff up to my room...then moved my car over to south lot, and had to park all far away...i walked over to the bus stop and i was happy cause almost immediately i saw a shuttle...but i never even came by my bus stop and just left...then another shuttle that had showed up a few minutes before did exactly the same thing...i was kinda pissed and ended up just walking back to my room...

...as always getting up for my 8:15 was hell but we have a "library day" friday so atleast i dont have to deal with his lecturing...chem...we got our tests back...I got a 91 :) how awesome is that...spanish was the same as always...and she did an imitation of a drunk...that class is some interesting times...after class i met ange up at the mall around 2:30...we did a little shopping and got some lunch...i think we finally left around 3, then when i got back to school i got an awesome parking spot...and i only had to wait like a min for the shuttle...i had volleyball at 7...we lost but we played really well and i think we showed a lot of improvement from our game last week...

...i can't believe our canada trip has come up so soon...we leave at noon friday...its gonna be so much fun...

...friday morning...yet again i had to force myself to get up for my 8:15... i had a test in Chem but it wasn't too bad...then i had a test in spanish which was also ok...and she corrected our worksheets...somehow she gave me 100 for a packet of like 4 worksheets when i only did the front page...yay to that...i got back to my room around 11...i dropped my stuff off in my room and headed to the DC for some breakfast/lunch...afterwards i headed back up to my room to pack up my stuff to go home...i finally headed home around 1 or so...i did like 3 loads of laundry when i got home...now i have clean clothes...yayness...i watched taxi...and relaxed...i watched part of the sox games then went and picked up meggie so we could meet kryto at the McD's...kryto was all hyper and randomly decided that she was going to go pick up terry for the weekend...so we all hopped in krytos car and headed off to lowell...we saw terry's crabs lol...and were amused by fucker running circles around krytos head...then we headed back to chicopee, then i just hopped in my car and went home...i crashed when i got home...to find out that my mom locked the glass door which i don't have a key to so i had to got through the garage so i didn't wake anyone up...i was so exhausted...

...then i had to get up all early this morning to go to work...but i only have one other shift scheduled for this season so i guess i can't complain... i'm gonna be here til like 7 tonight...evil charters...but atleast i am getting some hw done...yay for productiveness...

...i guess thats all for now...

chalkboard drawings and trips to stanley park...

2005-09-27T00:46:15Z

...i was so tempted to skip History this morning...but i skipped friday so i forced myself to go...it was insanely boring...then i had chem...nothing interesting to write of...spanish was the same as usual...more worksheets... and i still don't understand anything she says, but she likes to draw these weird little drawings on the board when she it trying to explain stuff to us...lol, today she drew a fat one-legged JFK...after class i vegged out in my room for a while and watched a movie...then i went for a walk to Stanley park with Rachel...we walked around the duck pond and flower garden...and on this sketchy little wooden thing that i thought was just gonna fall apart... then i headed back to my room...i finished watching the movie and attempted some hw...i actually did my spanish hw for once...yay me...but didn't get too much else done...now i'm just hanging around the room watching CSI and oddly enough its an episode i didn't see...i'm still not sure how that happened lol

the random events of the weekend...

2005-09-25T14:57:50Z

i didn't get out too late from work friday...the boat actually got back before 9...i got back to school at a little before ten, and bobby IMed me like 2 mins later...apparently no one was around at school and he was really bored...i swear the boy has ADD or something...i ended up going to bingo with bobby...it was entertaining although neither of us won anything...i didn't really do anything else that night...

...i slept til almost 11 saturday morning...it was great...then i packed up some stuff and headed home...i finally got my oil changed and i got my rear view mirror back on...yayness...driving without one can be so annoying...i hung around my house for a little while...then went to my aunts house with my parents...i stayed there for a little then went to the marina to visit the meggie...it was kind of interesting and maddy told us we were gay lol... i hung around til meggie got off work...then we went and visited kryto at the McD's...fun times...then we walked around walgreens...it was the most entertaining time i've ever had in a walgreens...what would i do without you meggie? and who knew 20 questions could be so entertaining? then we raided the candy aisle...lol so many options...then we headed back to the McD's so we could chill with the Kryto...we were all about to leave then Krytos car decided to be cool and not start...but eventually after turning the key a million times it started...then we dropped it off at her dads house and went to the movie store...then we went back to Krytos to watch it...we threw PB&J into the canal and learned it doesn't float lol...then we watched white noise... it was so weird...finally left around 2ish...got home a little after 2...and went to bed

...which kinda sucked considering i had to get up at like 9 for work...o well...Lukey decided i should vacuum the hut...but it was cool cause i got to drive a golf cart...now i'm just hanging out in the hutt...the water looks really cool right now though...theres like a layer of fog right on the surface...its cool...there is no 4:00 scheduled yet and i hope it stays that way...

a slightly more upbeat blog...after some thought...

2005-09-23T23:47:58Z

after much though it occurred to me that its not so much working that I hate, but the drive there. I can't stand the commute. There's always traffic in Westfield no matter what day it is, 91 is the same way, and 202 is just plain annoying, the speed limit is like 25 and there are sets of lights like every 10 ft...which is a pain in the ass cause my breaks suck...

...this isn't too say that i don't think work is annoying because too often it is, like when people randomly park there boats at the gas dock even though there is a sign that says no parking...we have courtesy docks for that purpose...

...its been pretty slow at work today...the phone rang once, and i had a couple of gas customers, but apparently they shut the gas off after like 5 or so which i hadn't realized until today...good to know...its been insanely windy, but its actually kind of nice...better than sweating to death anyway...

...i skipped my first class today...but chem was ok...pretty boring...and spanish we just got more worksheets nothing new there...and we discovered that like everyone is sick...o well...i still sound pretty bad...but i swear i feel better...my mom called today and left a message on my cell...she's like "this is your mom" as if i couldn't tell her voice by now...i'm probably going home this weekend cause i need to get my oil changed, i need to fix my rear view mirror, and i def need to get to the bank...i have like 3 paychecks just waiting to be put in the bank...and the ATM's at school are special...the one at the DC said it couldn't give me money...how uncool is that? especially when i owe my room mate money...issues...

...all things considered, today was a decent day...i am finally feeling better despite my runny nose and raspy voice, and incessant coughing... i was kind of excited that i didn't hafta work directly after class, but driving through westfield at 3 on a friday afternoon is the worst thing ever ... there was so much traffic but i still managed to make decent time getting to work...i was only like 10 mins late...

...now all i can do is sit here and wait for the boat to get back...which probably wont be til like 9ish cause it left like a half hour late...

ranting about work...feel free to disregard this blog...

2005-09-22T22:46:57Z

...i don't even know where to start with this blog...

...I've decided i don't want to work during the week anymore...i feel like i'm kinda missing out on some of the fun of living in a dorm...not to mention i haven't had a decent meal since like the first week of school...i rarely have time to get to the DC and barely eat at all on work days...i figure this is probably part of the reason that i got sick...its killing my gas...and my car is being a pain in the ass...

...first thing when i got into work today...Kathy called me sweetie...and told me i was driving too fast in the parking lot...i've never driven more than 25 in the parking lot and it was nearly empty when i got here...so i just said ok and walked away...it started off slow...i barely did anything for the first 2 hours...then it got a lil crazy...they were getting the tent ready for a party and kathy wanted me to make sure people were parking in the grass...how is that my job? and what does she expect me to do? ...I had other things to worry about in the hut like the charter we had going out... jim wanted me to stamp a bunch of tickets...and i kept getting gas customers at the worst times...and i hate how they call the hut everytime there is a gas customer...god forbid i'm not down there the split second they pull up to the dock...sorry i was busy dealing with customers at the hut...sometimes i really wish they would just let me do my job...and then i felt bad cause lukey wanted me to go talk to these ladies who owed money and they were here with a nursing home and they were still trying to get everyone in the van and the poor lady was all stressed out...they need to calm down and not worry about money so much...its not like they were about to drive away without paying

...i am just so sick of this place...but the boat should be back in like 15 mins then i can leave...
