I am 44% CANADIAN!!!(Take the Canadian-ness test)

(You are 44% Canadian. You must be a foreigner, you aren't very Canadian at all!)-Well duh. I *am* American.

You pe...

You people say there are a lot of February birthdays? Geez! I don't know if it's just a Florida thing but it seems like everyone here has a birthday in March. I only know a handful of people who have birthdays in February. Maybe it's a conspiracy...maybe it's not...Has anyone built a kite before? We have to build them for our mid-term grade in my physics class. The directions look mad hard and I'm not looking forward to it. When I told my dad about it though, he got all excited. O_o I think all dad's have that weird excitement when their child has a "manly" type project to do. Watch out! Massive levels of testosterone!I really wish Andrea would hurry up and talk to her boss about a job for me. Andrea works at the Hallmark store in town and I would just *love* to work there. I love the atmosphere. It's so calm and peaceful in a Hallmark store and very perky. All the bright colors cheer me up. I just hope my typical Shannon luck won't ruin this for me. I can just see her boss saying no. Damn! But, I would be an awesome investment because I'm not going away to school this year like everyone else who works there. Almost all of them are going to UNF and I'm staying here. So train me now, beef me up, and I'll rock and know what I'm doing by the time the fall semester rolls around!So tired...must have sleep...I had no weekend and I'm extremely bitter right now. :P I'd sleep in Trig but I'm afraid Noble would throw a handful of dry erase markers at me. Ouch.

A Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday 57!

Geek...

I am so sore it's not even funny...I can't even walk straight. I feel like a moron. I love raquetball, but this soreness is no good!I can't believe Chris lost his wallet. Where the heck did it go to? Did it just grow legs, jump out of his pocket, and walk away on its own? I really hope he finds it 'cause it's gonna suck when he has to go get all these cards and stuff he has redone. New school ID, driver's license, library card...and so on. He lost some perfectly good pretzel and Gloria Jean punch cards and not to mention a great Old Navy gift card! The horror! And to top it all off, some crazy person out there is running around with a twenty dollar bill in his hand and a picture of three year old Mike and two pictures of me. Eew. AND a poem I wrote Chris. This sucks. I hope Ms. Alverez or Noble has it. Geez.Why do I always get sick after lunch? It never fails. Everyday. And why am I in a ranting mood all of a sudden?I want to get this day over with already and hopefully get on the court. "I try to get away and they pull me back in."

Stress release before a big test...

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! TRIG TEST IN 10 MINUTES! I'M GONNA DIE! I HOPE I DON'T FAIL!School is so stressful. I woke up this morning immediatly thinking about trig and what reference angle goes along with 300 degrees and tangent is always slope. Not a good sign probably. At least I won't have homework for once tonight. Geez. BTW, hey everyone! I'm alive!!

La la la...

I feel bad for the kiddies here in Tampa. They go back to school today(the 8th). Yuck. I got all these bad memories from going to my sister's orientation too the other night. Middle school is just terrible! It's like a lesser form of high school. The environment just sickens me to no end. It's disheartening to know that most of those kids will turn out to be drunken, drugged up, idiotic kids that walk around high school. It's just the attitude. Bleh.It felt good to get rid of pretty much all of my old entries from last year. Of course, only avid readers of my awesome journal (O_o) would notice. :) It's like cutting the ties from a troubling past one by one and watching them fall into oblivion. Of course, not all of them want to stay in oblivion permanently and like to come back and haunt me. But, eventually, I know they will ALL take up residency there...someday.

And the countdown begins...

11 more days until hell begins once more for me...Oh boy. Senior year starts in 11 days....I really wish I had done better in my 3 previous years of high school. (Grade wise) But, I guess it isn't all THAT bad. I mean, I get to try out my new personality for all the great folks at FPC. >:-(I'm not nervous. I swear.I'm just anxious and dreading the actual work load; from school AND work.So the next week will be spent in Tampa visiting my mother and then I will have 3 days to relax before hell begins. I really shouldn't have put this trip off as long as I did. That pisses me off. Three fucking days before school begins. It's late so I'm cursing. I'd better get some sleep before I scare even the devil.Did I mention I miss my boyfriend? No? Well, there ya go.

Ah...finally done!

Finally finished my clothes shopping today! While the boyfriend's away, Pixelie will play! If you consider shopping "playing". Haha. Ahem.When is my freakin' CD gonna get here??!!

Oh boy...

Well, the past two days has been a real adventure! Sunday I started on my back to school shopping. Got a pretty big chunk of it done. I only really had a problem with finding pants that fit me in the waist, but were long enough...What a pain! I'm now a size 3! I used to be a 1 but now I grew. I feel accomplished! :) But, I guess it's normal growth. It must be my hips...Then yesterday I went with Chris and his family for his shopping. The day went great! Until I HAD to go ruin it by getting bent out of shape about absolutly NOTHING!!!! I made a complete fool out of myself yesterday. GRRRR! I feel like I'm doing so good and I have my temper under control and then something stupid like this happens and it sets me back. My dad just HAD to give me that stupid gene. Yesterday afternoon/evening was just way...wierd. I'm done with my period...have been for 3 days but yesterday I felt like I had the PMS-y-depressed thing going on. Is it normal to act like that AFTER the period is over? Hmm...But at least I got my cell phone bill lowered by at least $10! Stupid Cingular... And I should get my first Ebay purchase in the mail sometime!! Geez! How long does it take to get something from California to Florida? I hope it comes today...I want to get it before I go to my mom's house on Thursday so I can listen to it in the car. I've been thinking about investing in buying 80's toys! Like My Little Ponies and stuff! I miss all of mine...:(And guess what it's doing right now outside AGAIN. Raining. *gag*

Today is the 28th!! Today is the 28th!!

Today is automatically a great day! *sings* It's my anniversary with Crifur! 5 months! 5 months!! */sings*We're going to St. Augustine. About a 30 minute - 45 minutes drive from my small city. Yeah you got it! I'm going to the first city in America!!!!! Jealous? *crickets chirp* That's what I thought...On a more serious note, St. Augustine is a such a great place for us. It brings back so many memories.... I can't believe it has been 5 months! I always thought back in the beginning it would be forever before we reached 5 or 6 months but here we are! And of course, this month was such a monumental month. I can't wait until he gets here! I filled up 3 blank spaces in his card last night and I decorated it all pretty and stuff...Yeah I know he's a boy but still!! :)*sings again* I luv ma' boyfriend! I luv ma' boyfriend! <3 <3 */singing again*

Kind of a movie/life review

Who ever would have thought that a plastic bag floating in the wind, would have such a spiritual impact? Just watching it stirred this happiness inside me; and I couldn't help but smile to myself. Actually, I've been all smiles lately. This change has made me more happy then I can ever remember or the happiest I've ever been in my small, short life. I'm so glad I have someone to share it with. One of my main goals this summer has been to find myself spiritually with no pressures from the church and it looks like I have succeeded. Finding yourself spiritually doesn't exactly mean God or religion. Yes I believe in God and I pray, but finding yourself spiritually means finding "you" in your self. Yay for me! I can't wait to greet society with this huge smile. Everyone should see American Beauty.
