Zombies, Gypsies, and a couple of Irish guys

Yesterday I went to my first ever car show, down town at the convention center. It was pretty fun, though there was no old cars, we got to look at some really expensive cars, and some really pretty cars, while weeding through the crap ones.


After that we ate at the 50's dinner in the mall, where Lillie had a really fucking good chocolate malt shake. I wanted to die!


We went to Stuff, and bought movies. I got Donnie Darko, Planet Terror, and Moliere. Then we went to Hollywood Video because Jorden couldn't find the movie he really wanted to watch at Stuff, which was The Man with the Screaming Brain . This movie had Bruce Campbell in it and was (of course) an instant classic. The movie was about this guy who ended up with half of this other KGB guys brain, and his wife who died and whose brain got put into a robot, they are going after this Gypsy who ruined their lives, and who is crazy and wants to get married.


Then we watched Boondock Saints, and Planet Terror. Both I hadn't seen before, I ended up liking them quite a bit. Planet Terror is so freaking awesome! Why don't they make more movies like this? oh it was so good, I can't even describe how much I loved it, too awesome for words!

luck? don't be silly

Days like this make me think... or rather allow me to drift off...

Today I was supposed to have a midterm, and deliver two speeches. I say supposed to because not one of these things actually happened. Something came up in each of my classes and I ended up having the most pointless day of school.

One good thing that happened today is that I'm buying a car and an engine too. This ( of course ) is something Jorden cooked up. He knows that I have money, and he wanted to have a little project to waist time on, something he tells me will help is career(or some bull like this) and then he shows me this beautiful 1954 Chevy truck. This baby is going for really cheep and after all "only needs an engine." We find one (also cheep) and so I fall in love with it. Before you know it I'm talking to Pablos about buying it, and it's a go, as soon as I get my permit. That's right people I still don't even have a permit! Jorden, knowing that I am a weak human being, was happy to point out that as soon as hes fixed it he will teach me how to drive.

I'm taking the test this week and passing if it kills me. I've never taken it before, but the dream of this truck drives me on... I know that Jorden is just using me to fuel his hobby, but hey I get a car out of the deal, and if he fixes it then it'll be more meaningful then some crap car my parents give me.

On Saturday we dressed up and went to Rocky. I curled the girls hair with the SUPER CURLER, and we all looked pretty glamorous. While Zoe went to Winter Formal (LOOOOSER) the three of us hung back and danced to ELO while eating pizza, and watching flash movies. I had Magical Trever stuck in my head until the early hours of the morning.


I can't wait for the day that it will no longer be necessary for Jorden to drop Lillie and I off, when we can just drive home together and sleep only a room apart. The day is coming sooner all the time.

My life is so good right now, I think I'm the happiest I've ever been. School doesn't even bother me much anymore.

odd balls and busts



On Friday Jorden tried to do something different and brought the girls lunch instead of taking them out. The good thing was that we could spend more time with them, but on the down side we where forced to eat lunch with High Scholars in the cafeteria. So it looks like we wont be doing that again. It was much more fun pretending that we where stealing them anyway.


This past weekend was an odd one movie wise. I watched 5 movies I'd never seen before this included Starship Troopers 2, Immortal, Repo The Genetic Opera, Rosemary's Baby, and Donnie Darko. From least to greatest that is the order that I liked them, but they were all good in their own way.

Nothing scares/fascinates me more then Satanists movies, regular horror movies honestly do nothing for me, but nothing captures my imagination more then a couple of devil worshipers. "Hail Satan!" said the cute little old satanist joyously, sweetly thinking of her dark master. Throughout Rosemary's Baby I kept thinking of The Last Unicorn, lines like "I can feel this human body dying all around me!" and " I'm a unicorn! A UNICORN!" popped into my head and I would randomly yell them at the screen.

In related news

There's nothing new really. Back at school, where I triumphantly return to the role of friendless loser, a role I thought that I retired after my freshman year of high school. My mom has also returned to her starring role of nagging overworked mother. What a wonderful world we live in, that people can just pick up the life style they were so happy to have escaped from.
I sit there alone at lunch not even looking up expectantly anymore, because people (no matter how hard you wish they would) don't just come up and say "hey your that really cool happening girl, do you mind if I eat lunch with, I've been hankering to talk about that new Star Trek trailer for ages." and then share their beautifully packed lunch with you while in deep nerdy discussion. You can't blame them though, I would never do something like that, which is why I have no friends at my college. I sit there and eat a little of what ever was left from the night before while reading David Sedaris, or listening to either Smodcast or whatever Neil Gaiman audio book I've gotten the night before. Lame me LAME!
I'll stop crying now
Jorden and I have started the tradition of taking the twins out to lunch on Fridays. The last two times (this has only been going on for the last two weeks) afterward I've gone back to Jordens and had MANLY TIME, which turns out to be pretty fun.
My weekends are based around my friends, not my homework. It is only their call that I listen for, and I could care less about anything ells at this point.

american gods

I've been stuck at home a lot lately... so that leads to a lot of reading. I'm currently reading American Gods by Neil Gaiman. I make the decision to read certain books by the author, not by the content. I read Star Dust while I was in Italy, because I liked the movie, which led me to like Neil Gaiman. I'll probably read all of his books now. I really do like this one it's kinda sad but I like the main character and the plot (thus far) so hes got me.

Christmas is coming. I really can't wait. You'd think that I'd be able to get over the excitement of Christmas, but I can't. For my Parents the excitement of getting new presents is outweighed by dealing with where when who what and how of Christmas, never one fucking why for them, it's better not to think about it. Yesterday we fluffed our fake tree, as merrily as was necessary to please my mom. It was also our Holiday celebrating the solstice, the shortest day the longest night. We did the usual, and it was fun again. Always something I look forward to.

I guess I'll just hang around the house until the snow is gone... waiting...
I'm also waiting for my Threadless order... damn Holiday sales

Home again

Well I'm back in the USA, back in Oregon. I got back on Saturday night a little before 11. I immediately went to the 24hour hot cake and steak house with my friends, not because i was hungry or in anyway awake, but because seeing and being with my friends was truly magical. I've pretty much been hanging out with them ever since. On Sunday I walked to Jordens in the snow and got Katelyn to come down, I watched them play video games and ate nachos. We went out and played on the ice, sliding on the melted snow.
On Monday my hair appointment was canceled. I texted Lillie and we decided to go see My Name is Bruce at the Fox Tower. We all met up at the mall and took the 72 to the max. After the movie we went back to Katelyn's house and watched Iron Man, and I loved it! We spent the night and lazed around the house all day, watching a lot of Disney movies, and taking eating breaks.
It's weird being back home, and yet it's normal, but it's also weird that it could be at all normal. I don't really know what to do with myself, but then again I've been spending nonstop time with my friends, so i don't really have to. It's good to be back home.

Freeze Ray

I have been having some really lazy days recently, today wasn't any different. I stayed home and watched episodes of Charmed, and ordered hot wings and pizza ( the fuckers forgot my soda!). I can't see the girls because they've all got school, and I would really like to.

I don't have much time left in America, I'm leaving next Friday early in the morning. I am getting more and more nervous and apprehensive. but lets not talk about that.... got a new camera so I think I'm ready.

Zune updated so it now has games, and audio book options. I played Hexic while listening to my music on shuffle for about two hours. I also ended up with a lot of new podcast, before I only had the one which was smodcast(I fucking love smodcast, they make my week when they put one up!) I'll probable take more then half of the ones that I got after this week.

Everybody wants to see me before I go, I really only want to hang out with my friends for the majority of everyday. It's truly amazing that we never get bored of each other, the only reason that we stop is when we are forced, which kinda annoys the parents. Could you have more then one love of you life, and be in love with them all at the same time? but also be in love with them without sexual attraction? and love them most when they are all together with you? weird thinking.... I just feel that I belong when I am with my friends, and it's seems that our personality's compliment each other so well. I'm going to miss them A LOT.

We found out that Gram Gram has breast cancer, I don't really know much about it but it's been on my mind lately.
