Actually I'm not sure if I'm skipping class or not, as I'm not sure class even happened today. I was outside checking out the ground breaking stuff and the 60's protest when I noticed that most of the people from my class were hanging out and participating. I went down to the room and nobody was in there haha. So I'm sitting here in the library for a little bit eating crunch'n munch with Chrissy and checking up on headlines. Two things have caught my attention in the past two days. Firstly I was at work last night and saw that this HIDEOUSLY terrifying man raped...a 3 year old. What kind of SICK, disgusting person could ever even dream of such a thing. If you saw the report on CNN then you know what this guy looks like. He looks like a totally freaked out wild-haired form of Charles Manson. The only reason he was turned in was because his ex-girlfriend did it. Can you imagine how many other people are out there like that who never get punished? Scary.
Something else was a headline I saw right now about a Maine middle school that's going to offer contraceptives. Apparently in 3 middle schools through 4 years there were 17 pregnancies. That's just appalling. I mean, I wish I could get into these kids' heads now. When I was in middle school I never even once gave a single thought to something like that. I don't know, I just don't understand how they would want to have sex. Don't kids wanna play anymore? Someday it'll be like damn, I should've been a kid for longer.
Well in other news the Penguins lost last night to the Devils in an absolutely insane game. I hate the Devils. But that game was nuts. There was this amazing Crosby pass while he was sliding on his ass to Sykora but he couldn't make the goal. Either way the game made me mad. Sure they had some bad calls but not all of them were bad. Six consecutive penalties? Total crap.
Well I'm off, time to do some running around til I get to see my baby <3
Well, I started the new job at TGI Fridays at the airport on Friday. It's a lot better than my last few jobs. I'm a hostess, so we pretty much enjoy ourselves talking up at the front unless we're seating people, which isn't always the case. Everyone seems pretty nice and we already get along well so I'm happy about that. But I'm not really in the mood to talk about work, so I'll continue.
I debated this morning whether I would go to my sociology class or not. It drags on for hours even though it's only an hour and 20 minutes long. Today was actually not as bad though since me and Chrissy pretty much talked the whole time and read each other's creative writing stories. She also brought us raspberry mocha fraps which was awesome of her. I'll have to bring something for us sometime too. So all through soc we were getting excited to talk about our other classmates' stories in creative writing, then we leave soc and find a class canceled sign next to the door. It really sucked. Of all classes to be canceled I really wish it hadn't been creative writing, but then again it did give me more time to come home and waste time before I actually start studying for my bio exam, which is indeed tonight. Problem is I really don't feel the need to study because half the stuff is like "what does mitochondria do?" and "what is a chromosome?" Seriously, I know that crap. There's just little things I don't know, but that makes it even harder to study since I feel like I know it all already from previous classes. Oh well, I'll study sometime hopefully.
And now, my favorite part of today's entry, I'm pumped as hell to go see Puddle of Mudd with Andy on Friday in Columbus. We're gonna drive out and stay in a cheap motel and then come back. Problem is that feels like so far away. Ah oh well...it'll come soon enough. It's all general admission so maybe I'll have some awesome shots of Wes Scantlin belting out his wonderful songs. Well alright, I'm off to waste more time before I study. And I know I changed my layout, the other was boringly black even though I liked the picture.
Yes, here I am again embarking on yet another short length of blogging time. Well, hopefully not short. I was writing over in my deadjournal for awhile but, the blandness of the layout sort of spurred me into coming back. With a fancy new autumn layout too. So, I suppose I'll give the usual update on what's been going on since the last post.
I actually quit that job. Amazing, I know. Years and years of busting my butt for those crazy Italians had me ready to snap in two so I left. Not that I don't love them all to death (well, most of them) but I had to draw a line. Right after that I went on vacation with Andy for a week to camp in North Carolina. We traveled to a few places within the state to go gem hunting, because for some reason we both enjoy things like that. Found a lot of great things: sapphire, garnet, emerald, ruby, amethyst, aventurine, smoky citrine (my favorite of my batch), smoky quartz (I always say it looks like a coca-cola ice cube lol), and lots of prism-like quartz crystals. Plus a ton of other things, but those are most noteworthy. We got muddy as hell every day, ran around in the creek digging under rocks for gems, and had such a blast I still to this day can't believe it was that fun. Of course the one drawback HAD to be the campground's showers...I was staring at 600 spiders everytime I showered...reminds me of home. Damn pervish spiders. That top one is where we lived for a week...lol. It was great because it poured every night but never during the day. Well almost every night. The middle picture is me and Andy with our surprise bucket that we were about to sluice, out of which came the two pendants that we had cut. And at the bottom is me...cuddling the hot dogs we bought. That's all we ate all week...hot dogs on the george forman grill with no buns. Talk about a low budget vacation. The last day we cracked and ate at Arby's tho, not to mention a fabulous pancake meal at IHOP during the drive down xD
Moving on, we came back and I started my new job at Target. I worked at 4 AM, and it sucked. I worked there for about a month before, just recently, I decided it wasn't for me. So I'm currently unemployed and semi-enjoying the free time. Besides the fact that I have classes now...the first day was on my 20th birthday. Go figure, since I had class all day, then a 5 hour biology lecture/lab at night. At least we got out of bio a little early and I got to eat some cake with Andy though, or it would've been extra crappy. Currently I'm going to be attempting to get a job at the airport. It's the kind of environment that I thrive on. Incase I never mentioned this, I'm obsessed with travel. Not like a normal person would be obsessed with travel, I really have a problem. I get urges, and...well nevermind that for now. If I got into my travel issues in this post you people would be here for years. So continuing, I'm attempting to go to the airport. Work around the people who get to do what I can only dream of doing. Hear about where they go and what they do. I'm excited, really. There's a job fair at the airmall Tuesday morning, I even get to miss my morning classes to go to it. Too bad I'm missing creative writing, the only class I never want to miss. I suppose that's about all that's been going on. I should be updating more frequently, at least I hope so. I'm busy, but I can always find time to sit on my butt in front of the computer and do nothing xD
Guess what? I have ramblings. Surprising, I know. It's great that I procrastinate on everything so much, otherwise I'd never update. I have a 6 page paper due tomorrow which I'm only about slightly halfway done with. And I can't do that at the moment because I'm watching the penguins game. They're tied, and that's better than what it COULD be. End of the second period. But I doubt you wanna hear me ramble about hockey. So here's a survey with some spiffy questions.
You're going to the moon! What did you forget to pack?
Knowing me, I'd probably forget the entire space suit
You can whistle and steam can whistle, so why do you sing in the shower?
I sound better in the shower lol
When you open your eyes underwater, do you ever worry that you'll drown?
No but I'd rather not do that
When you hesitate before hitting snooze on your alarm clock, are you being lazy?
Everything I do has an air of laziness about it, so yes
You're wearing a sweater that stretches down to your feet. What color belt do you put on?
Well you didn't specify the color. So either black or white.
You have to dig a hole to China. Where do you start?
My workplace. I've always wanted to bust a huge hole in the floor of that place.
The squish of mud between your toes; how would you live your life as a frog?
I'd probably be the most fabulous frog in the pond
You've just inherited a manufacturing plant that specializes in plastics. What are you going to make?

You've rented a sky-writer to propose to your significant other, but it's completely overcast. What will you do?
Call off the whole thing. That is definitely a bad omen.

For your birthday, your aunt gave you a maple syrup dispenser shaped like a rooster. Please write her a thank-you note:
Dear aunty,
Thank you very much for the syrupy cock, I will constantly drink in its fabulous taste.
Love,
Ashley
Which is more important to you and why: flexibility or expandability?
Well both to a point, but that point I don't feel like explaining at the moment

Throw in some rum. It'll be fine.

"It's been awhile hun, I think you should go back again"
Well here I am, 1:46 AM and needing VERY much to go to bed so I can get up and hand my research paper in, but quite unable to sleep. Not like it entirely matters though, after I hand my paper in I'm coming straight back home and sleeping til work later. Not like I have anything to miss in my business class anyway, all I do is play bejeweled on my phone...
Anyway, that's pretty much how I feel on the left there. See, it's a smiley cookie from eat n' park (I'm not sure if anyone knows eat n' park except around where I'm from, it's a cheap family restaurant that's a very typical hangout for young people at 2 AM cuz it's open 24 hours)...which is frowning...because it's raining. And maybe because it's just depressed with life in general and doesn't understand anything anymore. Intriguing for sure.
Sorry I can't be more amusing tonight. I really thought I'd be ecstatic after I finally finished that dreaded research paper...but it turns out I probably feel even worse. I wish I wasn't such an idiot and so selfish.
Although the good news is I still have an interesting site for you. International Space Station tracking. It shows you the exact position of the space station in the world, shows you its orbit and everything in real time. It may not be amusing, but it's interesting, and that's the best I can do in my present state of mind. Well, I'm off to lay in bed and stare at the ceiling probably. Fall asleep eventually I hope.
Yes, I just so happen to be the laziest person alive. And I'm just generally not having a good time with myself, but I'll get to that later. I have a presentation due in 4 days that I only have 3 slides for, and two research papers due in two weeks. I haven't started either of those. I'm gonna do awful someday...I'll never succeed lol and the sad part is that I know that. I may as long as I can set my own deadlines or something. But I mean, the stuff I need to do gets done in time, but I procrastinate WAY too much, stress myself out like crazy along the way, and all of that's my fault. I could EASILY do things earlier, I just really don't want to. Somehow I'm happier putting it off and stressing myself out. Like, right now, I'm so stressed I can't even think. I backed into my garage door the other day because I have so much shit on my mind, and the darn people are coming at 8 AM to wake me up and replace it. Darn them.
I'm just getting sick of stuff. Sick of this place maybe. Sick of school, work, winter, cold, driving on route 60, almost everything lol. I just like the people, but even sometimes you need to get out of town and go somewhere where nobody knows you. Or maybe just one person knows you, or something like that. I just need to go somewhere. But I barely make enough money to do things I enjoy with it let alone pay bills. Seriously, screw bills. And I can't WAIT to get out of that damn restaurant and get a nice little office job where I get $9 per hour to sit there and use a computer. My god, that'll be just fabulous. I told you I was lazy. I already sit on my ass at the computer at any chance I get, why not at my job too? But I guess I'm off to bed so I can daydream about the traveling I wanna do til I fall asleep...
