I know, I know, I know.
I epic failed at keep up with this blog. I'm sorry! :(
There hasn't really been anything newsworthy to post. I have been trying to keep up with my list, but it's hard. I have realized a lot of things since I moved out. One is that Kraft Dinner and Hamburger Helper are two of the easiest things to cook. Even if you have no clue how to cook! So there goes the whole eating healthy thing. Oops?
But I have been doing well in school. I was trying to keep up with my readings, but it's really hard. I keep on top of what I need to keep on top of and I have yet to not hand anything in. By that I mean I have handed everything in. Well, except for one of my photography assignments, but that wasn't entirely my fault. Even if I should have done it earlier. But that's okay! I've been keeping up with everything else. And I'm really proud of how well I have been doing in school.
As for the whole boy thing, I have found one I think. I'm not going to write about it much here, but he does something to me. Something amazing and special and something that I can't even use words to describe. But he lives in my hometown. And he's terrified to let me in. So we have our problems. And they might be getting the best of me, but I'm trying really hard. I want to keep him, because I honestly think he is the most beautiful and wonderful person I have ever met. And all I want is to be with him. But only time will tell what will happen with us.
Outside of all that is that I'm scared I might be getting the flu. I didn't go to three of four classes today and I haven't really left bed all day. I am so nauseous it's disgusting. But I refuse to call it the flu until I cannot pry myself from the toilet bowl, and I haven't even come close to that. The only reason I stayed home all day is because I want to sleep and get better.
That's about it from me. I promise to try and keep up with this thing. :)
Keep swimming!

Back to School
So I'm back at school. Finally.
Classes don't start until monday, but I needed this week to settle in and get ready to start working. I pretty much love where I live; all the scary drunken hobos and boys that have the most annoying dog ever. It's going to be an interesting year.
I'm really excited to really start my courses. I want to dive into my work and do well this year. I only live with one other person from last year, so maybe the drama will finally end. I have my own room which I think will really help me focus and get things done.
I have a lot of goals this year, and I plan to accomplish every single one of them. Here's a list, mostly for myself, but in case you were wondering:
1) Lose a lot of weight.
2) Have at least a 7.0 GPA.
3) Find a decent boy.
4) Stay organized.
5) Stay active.
6) Eat well.
7) Be social.
8) Write daily.
I think that's it. I feel like being an adult this year. Last year I was so immature about a lot of things, but that has to change. I live in my own house, I pay rent, and my parents aren't here to hold my hand all the time. It's time for me to become an adult and get my life rolling. You never know, maybe I'll find something amazing and do something worth while this year.
Anyway, just checking in. Can't wait to start this adventure of a year!

Twitter = MORE LOVE FOR PARANORMAL STATE
I know, I know, blogging WAY too much today. I'm sorry!
But the coolest thing just happened! Chip Coffey, my favorite psychic from my favorite show, Paranormal State, just tweeted at me! And here is the proof!
It made my day. No jokes!
Keep swimming!

Edit: That's not the whole picture. :( I told him he was my favorite person ever and he said "Ahhhh.... Thanks! <3<3<3" Yeah, three hearts! That's right! :)

"The Ugly Truth" - The Amazing Movie
Tonight I saw the new hit comedy, "The Ugly Truth". Going into it, I had no real expectations, because I would have much rather seen Harry Potter 6. But, I now understand why this movie got such good reviews! It was hilarious and made a few good points about the difference between men and women.
The comedy in the movie was a bit older, so I would not recommend this movie for kids under the age of 14. There was a lot of sexual humor, which I will admit I wasn't sure to think of at first. But, as much as it was slightly... intense, it was absolutely hilarious!
My favorite scene was the one where Abby (Katherine Heigel) was at dinner with the heads of the corporation she worked for and her new boyfriend. She was wearing the vibrating underwear that Mike (Gerard Butler) had bought for her. After kicking over her purse with the remote in it, a boy picks it up and turns the underwear on. Obviously, hilarity ensued.
The show I went to was sold out. It was a 7:15 show on a Tuesday evening. Everyone was laughing, and some even clapped at the end.
I wasn't thrilled with the ending, but then again I don't like cliche endings. Not really much of a twist and completely expected, but cute. Not a terrible way to end the film, but not the greatest either.
All in all, I really enjoyed the movie. It was funny and smart, not to mention very insightful. If you're thinking about going to see it, do! I loved every second of it.

Horror Stories from the Grocery Store Pt 1
I have decided to start blogging about people. But not just any people, customers. And not just any customers, customers at a large chain grocery store who are completely and totally rude and perhaps slightly insane. Does that narrow it down enough?
If you didn't gather it from that wonderful introduction, I work in the clothing department of the Canadian equivalent of Wal-Mart. As part of my job, I run the till, clean, put out stock, run fitting rooms, and do pretty much everything they do in a normal clothing store.
Now, I haven't done the research, but from what I have seen, people who shop at this store are potentially the worst customers you could ask for, and I'm not exaggerating at all. I'm not saying that every customer we get is brutal, there are some very wonderful, polite people who shop there, don't get me wrong. However, some people who shop in this store are downright rude and insane. No jokes here.
In this series, entitled "Horror Stories from the Grocery Store", I will discus the craziness that happens at my store involving customers. Who knows, maybe you are one of these people, but I certainly hope not. This people seem to have no idea what manners and respect are. I learned what those two words were when I was around three. At three years old, I was way better behaved than some of these people. Again, no exaggeration there. And I'm not going to lie and tell you that it's easy to just laugh off like it's no big deal. What some of these people say really takes a toll on you and makes you feel really low. If my job were not in danger, I would give these people some of their own medicine. However, because I can't, I will just write about it here and hope that maybe a few of them will read it and realize how foolish and ignorant they look.
I have found through working there that the worst customers are the ones who don't even see the employees as human beings. Generally, they see us as these silly teens (most of are 19 or older) who have no idea what they are talking about and should not be entrusted with such a precious job like taking care of their clothes. Another misconception they have is that we have to take whatever they say to us and just give them what they want. While this happens to be the case when it comes to the store managers, it is not so much the case with us. If you harass us, we are allowed to refuse the sale or return and send you somewhere else.
Sadly, many of these people do not realize that we respond better to polite people. Instead of yelling at us when we screw up one little thing, politely point out the mistake and we will correct it for you. However, if you yell at us and begin calling us names, we will get flustered, make more mistakes and in the end you will just end up talking to a store manager who will tell you that you are not allowed to treat employees that way and that you should be nicer to us in the future. Can you guess which one will take longer?
So, I will include an example of a crazy customer who created a scene when there was along line for the tills. This scene really frustrated other customers who were in a hurry, and just resulted in more unhappy customers
Example: Crazy Bag Lady
One thing that you should know about clothing stores is that if we get busy and there is a counter we have two people working at, it's going to get a little messy and hard to work through. Another thing you should know is that my store started charging five cents a bag at the beginning of the summer. While some people were not at all happy about this, they have pretty much gotten over it and moved on with their lives except for a few. Here is where our story begins...
So, it was a crazy busy day at our store and the line up for the tills was very long. From what I gathered, this woman brought back something that she wanted to exchange in a bag. During the exchange however, the bag got lost and was thrown into our plastic recycling with all the other bags people leave behind. This recycling bin is not used for anything else besides bags, and we give out bags from there all the time. When this lady found out that her bag was thrown into the recycling, she demanded that we give her a new bag for free. We are not allowed to do this, as it is theft on our part. The girl working the till called over our department manager who also told her that she couldn't give her a new bag, but that we had plenty of clean used bags that she was free to use. Again, this woman refused and demanded that we call store manager over to do it. The store manager came over, and decided that she should just get the bag. Of course, this woman was a perfect angel to the store manager after being a complete jerk to the girls at the counter. This transaction took almost twenty minutes.
Moral of the story: if your bag gets lost, a plastic one like hers, and we offer you a completely clean used bag free of charge, just take it. Is it really that different from the other bag you were using?
Anyway, stay tuned for more horror stories from the grocery store.

Rest in Peace, Sweet Angel
I have said this many, many times before, but I want to make a huge difference in my life. I want to do something amazing with it. Do something that touches the lives of lots of people and makes their lives brighter.
This realization hit me hard today.
Today I had to attend the funeral of a girl that I have known since I was about 11. Her name was Dani. She was hit by a truck almost two weeks ago, and passed away from her injuries last Thursday. I didn't think I would be as upset as I am, but her passing has shattered me. I can't even begin to fathom what her family is going through, and my heart really goes out to them.
Dani had this smile. Her smile could light up any room. That is the one thing I will remember most about her. She could make anyone laugh and would brighten any day no matter the circumstances. She was feisty, beautiful and loving.
She was 16. That is the one thing that really gets to me, she was younger than I am. Listening to what her parents and friends and family had to say about her made me realize her impact on all the people around her. It got me thinking that I want to make an impact.
I don't know how, and I think that my writing and creativity is going to be taking a part in my impact. I want people to smile when I come into their lives. I want to make people happier, leave them smiling even if they are having a bad day. I want to make a difference, a big difference.
I'm going to make this change, I'm not sure when, but it is something that I feel I need to do. It's important to me, and I feel like it's my path in life. If my life were to end today, I don't think I would like the way it was. I don't think I'm the person I want to be. I need to change that. I will change that.
Rest in peace, Dani. You shone here on earth, and now you can shine in Heaven too. Shine on, sweet angel, shine on.
Keep swimming,
Jill

Michael Jackson: The Memorial
Going into this, I was worried that the memorial would be more like a circus. But I have to say I was way more than pleasantly surprised.
When they announced who was going to be preforming at the service, I was worried that they would be doing outrageous remakes of all the most famous Michael Jackson songs. But every performance was breath taking and moved to me to tears.
Mariah Carey performed, and I was a little worried. Her voice was shaky and sounded like maybe she had lost her voice... for good. But she pulled it together by the end and ended the performance on an awesome note. It left me teary eyed.
Stevie Wonder was amazing as always. There isn't much else to say either than he did an awesome job and I was left feeling inspired.
Shaheen Jafargholi, the 12 year old Britain's Got Talent finalist sang "Who's Lovin' You" which was very reminiscent of the Jackson Five days. I'm not going to lie, I pretty much bawled when he thanks Michael for everything he did.
John Mayer made a wonderful contribution to "Human Nature", in which he only played guitar. I thought it was great that he didn't try to remake the song, but just added his own little part to it. It was beautiful.
Jennifer Hudson did an awesome performance as well. There isn't much else to say about the performance, either than she really made it beautiful and I cried.
And my favourite performance of the day was Usher, who got so choked up near the end that he had to stop briefly. My heart broke when he stood next to Michael's casket and sang.
The speeches of the night were amazing. Queen Latifah read a beautiful poem, Brooke Shields talked about fond childhood memories, and Kobe Bryant and Magic Johnson talked about memorable moments. But the best speech was the very last one, made by Paris Jackson herself. As many know, Michael had a tendency to hide his children from the media, so many were surprised when Paris stepped up to the microphone to talk about her father's passing. She didn't get much out, but what said said caused me to burst into tears. She said "Since I was born daddy has been the best dad anyone could ever imagine, and I just wanted to say that I love him." She burst into tears and turned to her aunt Janet for comfort. That was perhaps the most powerful moment of the entire ceremony.
All in all the memorial was a memorial fit for a king, which he was. It was not nutsy and even the fans were respectful and kept the screaming to a minimum. It was heart felt, emotional, and tasteful. It was the perfect ending to an amazing, yet tortured, man's life.
I would just like to say that growing up, Michael was a big inspiration to me. His music was infectious. Even though his life was plagued with controversy, he inspired millions and changed pop music. He was the king of pop and for that, he deserves to rest in peace. God bless Michael Jackson. Thanks for giving the world your gift and giving us some of the most influential music of our time. Rest in Peace.

Uninspired.
I have found myself lately to be very uninspired.
It doesn't matter what I'm doing, where I'm going, or who I'm with, I just can't be creative.
Normally I can write anything; stories, songs... anything. But lately, my tap of inspiration seems dry.
I think I need to get out of this place. Go somewhere new and exciting.
I went to Ottawa recently for two days, and that was the happiest I have felt in a while. I wandered that downtown by myself and looked at everything I wanted. I didn't answer to anyone and I did whatever I wanted. I need to go to somewhere beautiful, somewhere so full of creativity you can feel it running through you.
I need a new energy, a new spirit. I feel like I lost my drive and my passion. Who knows, maybe I never had a passion and I've been making this up all along.
Who knows. I hate feeling like this. But it happens and I'll just deal.
Keep swimming,
Jill
PS: Sorry about my inconsistency. I have no excuse. I'm just... run dry... or something.

La La Land Has Had a Rough Day... :'(
So, as many of you probably know, there have been two very tragic deaths in Hollywood today.
Farrah Fawcett and Michael Jackson both passed away today. While Fawcett's death was to be expected, no one ever saw Jackson's death coming this soon. Fawcett has 62 and Jackson was 50. When you think about it, that's not very old.
It got me thinking, how long is my life? And what will I do with the time I have been given.
I feel like I have done nothing worth anything, and I feel that I should change that. I want to do something that will change the generation I live in. Something that people will respect and gain joy from.
What this.. act is, I don't know. But I am going to change. I am going to do something huge and life changing.
Goodnight world... <3

A Sad, Sad Story.
Many of you might have heard of Tori Stafford.
She was an eight year old girl who lived in Woodstock, Ontario, Canada.
A month and a half ago she was kidnapped, and most likely murdered, by a young couple.
No one knew what happened to her when she was last seen leaving school with a woman. After that, no one saw her, and no one has seen her, for over a month. Finally, Police found a lead that led them to the two suspects. The woman has been 'helping' them try to find Tori's body, but so far no luck.
I only live about an hour away from where she used to live. They want everyone within a fifty minute radius to search their property for Tori's body.It has been four days since they started looking for the girl, and there has been no new evidence.
She was a beautiful little girl with bright blonde hair and pretty blue eyes. I don't understand how anyone could do that to a person, let alone an eight year old girl.
I hope they find her soon. My prayers are with her family.
Keep swimming, Staffords.

No one knew what happened to her when she was last seen leaving school with a woman. After that, no one saw her, and no one has seen her, for over a month. Finally, Police found a lead that led them to the two suspects. The woman has been 'helping' them try to find Tori's body, but so far no luck.
I only live about an hour away from where she used to live. They want everyone within a fifty minute radius to search their property for Tori's body.It has been four days since they started looking for the girl, and there has been no new evidence.
She was a beautiful little girl with bright blonde hair and pretty blue eyes. I don't understand how anyone could do that to a person, let alone an eight year old girl.
I hope they find her soon. My prayers are with her family.
Keep swimming, Staffords.

Oops?
So... um, I've been gone for like a month?
And I really wish I had a good explanation as to why, but in all honesty I don't.
What's new?
I went back to work. Yay.
And I laze around when I'm not at work. So my life has been pretty boring.
But, I did not write this to tell you how boring my life is, I'm writing this to rant. And because no one else will listen to me complain.
So, my parents have been divorced for just over 5 years now. I live with my mom, and my dad lives with his fiance... person. They've been engaged for almost 3 years now, and there doesn't seem to be a wedding in sight. I'm not at all upset about that.
But that is not what I'm here to complain about.
My sort-of-step-mom is a good person and so are two of her three children. Within the last month and a half, their beloved fat dog Gibson passed away. Everyone saw it coming, but it was still hard on them. Everyone cried, but me of course, but that's a topic for another time.
They have been talking about getting a new dog since pretty much the day after Gibby died. I had a big issue with that, but my sort-of-step-mom said that they were going to wait until the summer to get a new dog.
I guess it must be summer, because they got a new dog.
Now, as wonderful as this should be, I strongly disagree and I am not impressed at all.
They have no idea about how to properly care for an animal. And this puppy is totally a rebound from Gibson. You how when you break up with a person, you date the next living thing you are attracted to? That's kind of this situation.
A puppy is a lot more work than they think it is, and they are not ready for it.
It will not be trained properly. It will not be walked when it needs to. And it will be locked up most days because no one is ever home.
And you know why that puppy got adopted? Because my two little step sisters probably saw it and whined and begged and threw a hissyfit, so my sort-of-step-mom probably caved and said okay. The only reason she hesitated is because my dad probably gave her that look like "NO WAY!" But then she whined and he gave up. That was probably the scenario exactly. They are so predictable that way.
Anyway, that's my rant. They are great people, all three of them, but this was a dumb idea. And the problem is that I'm going to go over and fall in love with this puppy and forget all the reasons why it was a bad idea. So I figured I should write it down so that I don't forget.
Keep swimming!

Summer Vacation!
So I officially finished all my exams at about 9:45 this morning! :) So I am now on summer vacation. The funniest thing happened though. As soon as I sat down to relax, my phone rang, it was my work. It was my boss calling to tell me when my first week of work would be. *Sigh* So I only have 10 days of freedom before back to work. Oh well, the money will be nice.
Here's my funny video of the day. :) Enjoy!

Funny Commercial #1
So I am going to try and a new funny commercial at least once a day. This one has a ton of views, but I find it hilarious and I hope you do to.
(Warning: Not suitable for children: harsh language!)
(Warning: Not suitable for children: harsh language!)
Happy Belated Easter!
As you can see, I epic failed at Easter. The actual day was so busy, I practically collapsed when I got home, which is weird for me.
Anyway, the day started out around 10 AM, when I woke up and did a small Easter hunt with my three little sisters. They had already found pretty much everything, so I just had to find my chocolate orange and a few eggs. Then I trekked over to my Nana's for some Easter dinner and fun with the cousins. My little TyBaby was there and I was reminded of why I think he is so amazing. We dyed eggs together and he thought it was just the greatest thing.
We played on the roof of the building, TyBaby loved to stand on the fence and look out over the city. Katie wanted up too, but I couldn't lift her. For just six years old, she weighs a TON.
After dinner and hangouts, it was back to my mommy's for more Easter wonderfulness. She got me a t-shirt, yoga mat, and lots of chocolate. Actually, I have a funny story about that.
So, I have a very cute little dog named Jasper, and a little brother names Scott. Well, when we got home, we all went to our rooms to put things away and find what our mom had bought us... I mean, what the Easter bunny had brought us? Anyway, I went to go check in on my brother, and he looked confused. I asked him what the problem was to which he responded, "Did you get any chocolate? All I got was an empty hat that was already mine." Turns out, our dog had raided my brothers room and decided that he wanted his Easter chocolate for himself. So we've been watching little Jazzy carefully, but I think he's okay. And Scott's fine too; we've got enough chocolate to feed a small army.
The moral of the story... don't leave your Easter chocolate on your bed where your dog can get it because your door jam doesn't work properly. Yeah...
Anyway, keep swimming!

Easter!
Obviously, it's Easter weekend. I love Easter. It's the only good family holiday besides Christmas. It's like... the Spring equivalent of Christmas.
Now, I am the oldest of three kids, six if you count in my three step siblings, so I absolutely adore seeing their faces when they wake up on these kinds of mornings. I'm excited now because tomorrow morning, everyone is going to get along, no one is going to fight, and everyone is going to be happy. The looks on the three girl's faces when they find their chocolate and such.
But tonight feels different. My brother isn't around and I guess I shouldn't be surprised by that. He says that family always comes first, but I'm really starting to doubt that with him.
I don't know.
I think I'll have to sit down with him. I just miss my little brother, the one who used to fight with me, the one who would always be home when I came home from school. Not the one who goes out every night. Not the one who is sick. Not the one who drinks himself silly at only 16 years old. It's depressing, but even more so because he has no idea I miss him.
I am still excited for tomorrow. I have tons of little cousins (because I am the oldest there too) and I love to see them on these kinds of days. Especially when I never really get to see them anymore. And I still have my little sisters who I know will never get into that kind of stuff, the ones who I never want to grow up.
Anyway, I'll post tomorrow, maybe with a funny video and some Easter wishes. :)
Just keep swimming,
I know I'm trying.

I'm A Bad Person
This might make me a terrible, terrible person but www.fmylife.com makes me feel so much better about everything that has happened and is happening in my life. I don't I have any embarassing moments like this.
If you have never checked it out, do it!
Anyway, bed time. I need energy to enjoy my day off.

So apparently posting your Twitter URL DOES get you more followers.
I'm up to 4. Yay! Go me! :)
Now I'm going to bed!
Good night!

Oh, Twitter.
I might be addicted.
I love twitter.
I get to follow Demi Lovato, Taylor Swift, Garbo, Jonah Hill, and a ton of my other favourite celebs.
But apparently posting for people to follow you on Twitter actually makes your followers disappear. I had one yesterday, and today I have none.
Because you know I am just the most important person ever.
Not really.
But I am SUPER hungry. I am going to go solve that.
Just keep swimming!

Exam Time!
It is that time of year again, the dreaded exam time. I have been home since Thursday and have yet to start studying for my two exams on Wednesday. Oops.
Anyway, I don't really have much to write either than I am SUPER bored, and just updated my Twitter.
If you tweet, check me out. Follow? Maybe I'll be more likely to tweet once in a while if I have more than one follower. Maybe.

Oh, one last announcement:
The bathroom is the best place for thinking, writing songs, and letting your imagination roam. Try it: just stand in your bathroom, close the door, and relax. Weird things may occur. Not in a weird, gross way. Well, yes in a weird way, just not in a gross way. Okay, I'm going to stop rambling, just try it!
Keep swimming!

Insomnia!? Is that you!?
I'm kind of worried about myself.
Kind of.
I don't sleep. Well, I do, but not like normal people.
Saturday night my good buddy Brad came over. Like the true nerds that we are, we turned off all the lights (it was Earth Hour) and watched Paranormal State. If you don't know what Paranormal State is, it is a TV show following the invetigations of PRS. Check it out on A&E or www.extremeghosthunters.com. I might have the world's biggest crush on Ryan Buell, maybe. And I might find Serg to be one of the most entertaining people alive, maybe.
Anyway, we watched quite a few episodes and my friend left at about 11 pm or so. I hung out with the family, as I often do, because I was home for the first time in two weeks. I thought I was feeling rather tired, but I guess not.
I was lying in bed, I finally turned off all the lights and decided to settle in for the night around 4 am, the time I usually turn in. However, I couldn't sleep. At. All.
My brother woke up at 6 am to go to work, and I decided to get up and make something to eat. I still wasn't tired. I ended up playing a computer game until 9 am, when I decided I would try to sleep again. I did manage to fall asleep, and slept until about 2 pm. I didn't want to get out of bed, but decided it was probably for the better that I did.
I don't really know why I have these sleeping issues. I never used to before I moved to university. So, I feel that this place and the people here probably have something to do with it. Not to mention the fact that I don't have a class earlier than 11:30 am.
Oh well. I guess maybe summer break will be a good thing for me.
In other news:
1) I only have 1.5 hours of class left! On Thursday! And then I am done my first year of classes! I honestly feel way too young to be done my first year. I'll have to write a review of my year once I finish up my exams on the 16th.
2) I totally had a number 2, and I have now completely forgotten what it is. It was really exciting too, which makes this all the more annoying.
Oh well. I should get some sleep. It's 2:43 am here. I probably won't though.
Just keep swimming!

Excitement!
So yes, I felt the need to post a blog about this.
Why? Because it made my entire life. No joke.
So today I... GOT TICKETS TO SEE THE JONAS BROTHERS IN CONCERT!
And yes, I am turning 19 less than a month after I go see them.
And yes, I am aware that I'll be one of the oldest people there who is not there with their children.
And yes, I am aware that loving them this much makes me one of the biggest losers on the face of the planet.
I am prepared to accept these consequences in order to enjoy one night of Jonas amazing-ness.
Anyway, I should sleep at some point. It's 4:37 AM here, and there are people screaming outside my window. Hurray party night!
Just keep swimming!

Thoughts from the Shower #1
So I was taking a shower this morning, as I often do, and it occured to me:
I want a lot more out of this life.
Yes, it finally occured to me. I was thinking about what I should do after university, how far I wanted to go with my education and mostly what my career options are.
So, I decided that my "beat" (topic that a journalist writes about) is probably going to be popculture and entertainment. Its something that I have always had a certain fondness for. Especially when it comes to movies and music.
I fequent Perez Hilton's blog at least five times a day. I go to the movies all the time to check out the latest flicks. And music? Well, that's just something I have always loved.
So what kind of career does that hold for me? I want to travel, mainly to Europe and Asia and check out how the popculture is different there than it is here. I would love to get a job in the UK. One of professors said that I should really consider doing that, and I think I am.
But do I get my masters? That has always been in the back of my mind. So, do I continue on or do I just stick with my BA in Journalism? I'm not sure. Having a masters will really help me in terms of finding a job in long run. But it's a lot of extra money. So I'm really torn.
And those are my thoughts from the shower.

Hello Out There!
Hello everyone! :)
So, if you haven't guessed it, I'm a journalism student. Duh.
I go to school and major in journalism and contemporary studies (honestly, I have no clue what the hell that is).
This is where I am going to write my life story. I have another blog called "Inside Her Head". It's a litte more artistic and emotional and stuff. But I guess I just need somewhere to... vent in a different way.
So, being a first year journalism kid, I live in res. If you have never lived in res, consider doing it. Maybe.
As much as I tell you all to do it, I hated it. Yes, I made amazing friends who I adore with every piece of my heart. But I live with FIVE other girls. FIVE. And they are the loudest girls I have ever met. Not to mention the fact one of them is (please excuse my language) a CRAZY BITCH.
No exageration.
Today, she heard a rumour that someone was complaining about my roommates not giving bottles to a girl who is doing a 2 day bike ride for cancer. Yeah, okay, they did have a lot, and it did look selfish that they wouldn't give any up, but they had plans for the money. Buy more booze with the money. Yes, that is their brilliant plan.
Anyway, someone in the grapevine let it slip that perhaps someone had said something about her/the rest of them. This is not the first time it has happened. Not even close. Well, she stormed over to their room and screamed about how she did a walk for cancer and they didn't, how her best friend had cancer, and how they were all bitches.
They all heard it. And now the rest of the floor is talking. She thinks she was all tough. I thought it was hilarious because she made herself look like a fool. And yes, almost 5 hours later she is STILL talking about it.
And I don't really need to tell you that these walls are paper thin. And you should have heard some of the stuff they said about me. Yeah, they're hypocrits.
And I probably don't even need to mention the fact that it is 1:34 AM and they are all piled into the room next to me SCREAMING. I need to sleep. I need to wake up at 9:30 tomorrow morning and they are the loudest people I have EVER met.
I would yell at them, but I don't see much point in it. Honestly, I have like 9 days left of classes and then exams and then home free. Thank god.
Just keep swimming! :)
