We don't need no stinking title!

God I'm lame.

Anyway... This REAL relationship thing is going to take some getting used to. The past few can't even be called relationships. But this really feels like, well, the real thing. At risk of sounding repetative. But I don't care right now because I'm tired. I'm forcing myself to update because I need to get into the habit and stop being lazy. So in summary: I'm happy. That's the only way I can put it in words. And I'd hide a cute little message in here to further explain that, but I already said I'm tired lol. I really no feel more deeply about this, but I'm not quite in the mood to express all of my feelings. So, I'll just talk about other stuff and trust than you already know how I feel <3

More good news! Lei and I are no longer friends. I don't want to bitch about it in detail, but he's finally pissed me off enough for me to just end it. I can't handle him being a jealous child. Can you believe he actually expected me to be able to read his mind and know exactly when he "needed me to be there for him"? I'm glad I don't have to deal with him anymore. Well, he will be going to my school this year, but we'll see how it goes. I just hate that it ended on bad terms.

And now some fandom-related babbling. I started watching a new show called Tripping the Rift which just happened to have premiered on Teletoon last night when I stumbled upon it. It's a Canadian Science Fiction CGI comedy show. I love it! Look it up on Wikipedia for more information. It's hilarious. Also, Teletoon is showing season one of The Venture Brothers again! Also, when I just happened to stumble upon the first episode before watching Tripping the Rift. It made me happy. NOW all they need is to show the new season two episodes! *shakes fist* I also got the idea today that if I don't directly work in animation, it would be really cool to work for a TV station that specializes in animated shows (like Teletoon). I could finally have a say in what stays on the air and stuff. Just a random idea though. Probably won't turn into anything. Also, I found a site for Invader Zim torrents, which I am downloading now (so I don't have to rip my DVDs - mainly because I can't figure out how to do that properly). The downloads are going very well (up to 130 kb/s) so it won't be long. Then I will figure out how to burn DVDs that actually work in a DVD player instead of being just backup discs.

And now work related stuff, because I seem to be very category-oriented for this post. Today went by really fast. I was working with this new girl who made me feel really lazy lol. She was always compulsively sweeping, cleaning, doing dishes, etc. At least we have some stuff in common and had a few good conversations. We also like some of the same music, so that worked out too.

I was promised a raise if I stay, but I don't think I'll be doing that. I don't want to work at the thrift store anymore because Lei works there and the one Carla works at is kinda far from my house... So I guess I'll drop another resume off at the Pawnshop Superstore. That place is cool.


But I'm going to head to bed now. I have to wake up at noon to meet Nathaniel and hang out for the day ^_^ I'm really looking forward to it. (I'll just have to make sure not to answer the phone if it's Subway, because I'm "on call" lol Suckers.)

And just for the sake of being able to, here are some pictures from the fireworks on Tuesday (because I just remembered I had some)

Zim/Lion King



TEH FUNNY

Mood swing! Wheee!

Drastic change in moods, so I thought I'd update.

Woke up at 6 PM... lol. I've been on the computer pretty much the whole time too. But anyway, I woke up in the same bad mood I fell asleep in. Had some breakfast/dinner (binner? lmao), boringness ensued. I started to cheer up a bit after listening to some Oingo Boingo. The day was pretty short so I don't remember much.

Other than a couple hours ago, Nathaniel updated his blog out of immense boredom. I read it and noticed there were (seemingly) random letters made bold, so I assumed he just did it for something to do. But then he mentioned a hidden message in the entry, so I put all the bold letters in order. It spelled "I like you Kri want to date you." Or something to that extent. I kinda had a feeling about this before, but I was telling myself it wasn't true. Low self esteem thing again I guess. But anyway, I told him (on MSN) that I like him too and a dating thing was arranged lol. So we're going to hang out for a couple hours tomorrow (I have to go to Esoterik's to have my eyebrow piercing looked at - it's all infected and gross) before work. OOH and my Boondocks episodes finished downloading so if I can't sleep I'll be able to watch those all night/morning lol. I am also in the process of downloading the first and second seasons of Pee Wee's Playhouse because I've heard awesome things about it from Zabetta (the girl on deviantART who got me into Oingo Boingo) and season two of Star Trek: TOS. It's going to take a while X( But hopefully it will be worth it! So yeah. I'm gonna watch some Boondocks now ^_^

P.S - added a bunch of those fanlisting icon link thingies to my sidebar. Fandom is important to me.

And this is how my shitty day went. First real post.

I wish I had something upbeat to post about today, but that's just not happening.

Every time I get a new journal, the first post is about how miserable I'm feeling. And I do feel crappy. The past week or so has been awesome, but the past 12 hours just sucked. Nathaniel spent the night to help create this new blog (all credit going to him, by the way http://www.ethrel.blogspot.com) and we got a lot of sleep. Gordy called at 4, when we were waking up to ask if we were coming that night to see the fireworks again. So yeah, sure, why not. Then Carla and Lei showed up just to hang out I guess. Lei wasn't happy because he hates Nathaniel. Some stupid shit about being jealous >_> So Lei went home and Carla came with us. When we got to Gordy's, he was already drunk and had two stoner friends there, whom I immediately hated. It just didn't feel right being there. I hate the taste of tequila, by the way. Gordy and the two friends went outside somewhere to get high, then when they got back we went back down to the 7-11 to see the fireworks like last time. We ended up separating before we got there though. So long story short, I'm pissed at Gordy for being an asshole. Pissed at Lei too - arrogant dickhead.

SO after the fireworks, we walked to the bus stop and me and Carla went to Alyssa's house for her sleepover thing that ended up not being as good as everyone expected. At least Katrina, Mellisa, and Andy didn't come. We also didn't have to sleep outside. This is where things really went downhill. There was some kid there named Chuck, who of course, I immediately hated. Not unusual. We hung out in silence for a bit until I put a Venture Brothers DVD on. Carla and Alyssa fell asleep, so Neo, Anne, Pam, Chuck, and me went to Mac's to buy stuff. Then we went to this little school playground thing. I was planning on finding a patch of grass to lie on and look at the stars, but the sprinklers had just gone off and everything was wet. We spent an hour or so there, and everyone started to annoy me. I was cold, lying uncomfortably on one of the climbing things, etc. And the part about everyone pissing me off brings me to my rant.

I want everyone to stop being a pretentious little show offy asshole. 'Kay? Every time people get together they have to brag about stupid shit that no one should be proud of (For example - "I got SO drunk after the grad ceremony and pissed on someone's garage!"). Also blatantly hinting at the fact that certain people have had sex. I got it when you shouted "I'm not a virgin!", okay? When I finally had enough I said that I was sick of everyone I hang out with bragging all the time and they apologized and started right back up again. So I sat up and said I wanted to go home. A half an hour later, we actually got up and started walking home after plans were made to go swimming the next day. No thanks. Not like I was invited anyway.

So when we got back to Alyssa's, her and Carla were awake and apparently had gone looking for us because no one remembered that I had a cell phone with me. After watching some video of Neo getting hynotized at the Stampede a few years ago, I woke up and dragged a blanket and my discman into the backyard and tried to sleep on the porch for a bit because my asthma was worse than usual and I needed to be alone. That was a bad idea because it was fucking cold and uncomfortable. I went back inside and within an hour had to go home. I couldn't stand people any longer. My bus came at 7:45 am and I just got home about 20 minutes ago. I'm tired, but I'm going to try to stay up for another 13-14 hours so I'll go to bed early and wake up semi-early. School starts in ten days. Shoot me.

Actually... scratch that part about staying up. I'm going to bed - screw it. And I'll be spending the next few days or so being anti-social.

P.S - I'm also feeling kinda sick because I stopped caring 100% about being vegan and ate some food with milk products in it, which I don't think my body is used to. I'm hoping it's just a phase though.
