Dad got the mail today before we were leaving to go to my Aunts house and low and behold a package...for me. Seriously, its the most WONDERFUL package I have ever gotten and the fact that it was a blind surprise, it was just that much better. From the glow stick to the nerds rope ( you cant find those here!!) it was great and full of spetacular things. Thanks so so so so so so much Abby. It made my day. <3 <3 <3 <3
X-mas Eve
4:44 PM
Its 1:00 and I just got up. Im so excited, I feel like a little freaken kid man. WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! Later today we are going to my Aunts house for her Holiday Open House and then to my Grandmas for a birthday bash for Lizzy, one of my cousins from the UK. Its going to rock. Im really excited.
The one thing I didnt do before Christmas that I promised I would I am really disappointed about. I have been busy and I have been accomplishing other things but this, as it happens to be VERY important to me and others, should have been taken care of first. Im sorry to the HenCon girls. I'll send them out, I swears it, and I will make it up to you some way. Dont love me less.
So, as I dont think I will blog tomorrow...
Tasha: Merry Fucking Christmas man! I hope that Parker shows up on your door step in red ribbon declaring hes not gay, but, if that doesnt happen, well, Im sure you'll hall in some wonderful presents anyways. Be nice to Chewy and while looking for presents under the tree make sure you dont get to much white stuff on you...hehe. <3 <3 <3 <3
Gillian: Oh what, just cuz you dont have a link on my site, you didnt think I woulnt say something? Hollar, Ill never forget you. Happy Christmas Potter style. I hope you get ICTC, as we all should hope, and that Catvill gives you some cat lovin. You and me at USC. WOOT.
Abby: I know how much you want the video, and Im sorry, Im horrible, but, Merry Christmas anyways and I hope to hear much about all the family fun you've had and the time you are sharing with friends. Tell Zoolander "hi" for me, that is, if Im not disowned. ;)
John: You best read this you, you, ah, John. Merry Christmas, thanks for the card. It was lovely and made me feel special, but, you knew that already. I hope you celebrate with the Kegorator and that your kittys dont brawl too much. Love you lots.
Yas: Merry Canadian Christmas! Have fun filling out those college applications and dont put Dune off for too long...I secretly love Dune, no one knows...heheh. Hope you get some wonderful books and some milk, not in a bag. Hehehe.
Kelly: YO! Kelly, will you be wearing a tank top on Christmas? ;) I hope the after X-Mas rush is not too bad at work and all of your presents kick your ass. I checked for tags and knew the sale prices this shopping season, thanks to you.
Sian: Spain and Christmas is like, well, Christmas anywhere Im sure. Either way have a happy happy Christmas and those pictures you took of your house and land surroundings were so lovely. Stay away from sharp objects as EVERYONE deserves to have a happy Christmas. Not like you would cut anything anyways... ;)
Sarah: Back from Florida and not even with a TAN?! What is this shit? Dont tell me its winter, I wont hear of it. Hope your trip was as wonderful as it sounds and that you dont miss your family too much. I hear you might get snow...
Ethan: Ah, happy Wednesday and Thursday? Im sorry Im not well educated in other religions practices, but, whatever you have going on with family and friends, or, you know, your animals, have fun and blog soon. I still miss you!

That last blog, if you think you know what its about, you dont. Unless I called you, then you do. ;) It has to do with my infamous room mate Jen and some old high school friends. Long story, but, sorry about the confusion to the confused parties.
DONE with my shopping! WOOT! Oh, Ben wants on, I will finish this later.

Girls are stupid, just not me.
4:09 AM
Being of the female sex I would like to think there is nothing wrong with my gender. Unfortunately, its not true. Girls bicker and say stupid hurtful things ALL THE FUCKING TIME. I swear, it almost ALWAYS has to do with boys. In this case, it does. So who cares if you *think* you know him better. What if you do? What if you dont, and you think you do? What if SHE was just joking around? And for fucks sake, she certainly doesnt know you know him better. Is that not the way you want it to be known after all? If people knew all about the many things that went on then this shit wouldnt happen. Maybe you want it to be like that because it makes you feel special. Im sure it does. Maybe you think you should know more because you have earned it. Some how its owed to you. Or maybe this is the way it has to be because you think people will get jealous. Who the fuck knows. All I know is that its bullshit. Your being an ass and maybe, next time, before something is said, you might like to think about it fist and stop being a bitch. It would be cool with me.
Packed, came home, took a shower. Went to grandmas, drove to a lake, went on a cruse. Came back to town, ate dinner, went to Grandmas house. Got a call, went to Cheney, cleaned. Came home, watched a movie, got on the computer. Blogged.

Land Dog
Saturday, December 20, 2003
6:10 AM
Just finished watching two movies. One was a hit at the Sundance Film Festival. The other stared Frodo (Elijah Wood), Lola (Franka I-smoke-too-much Potente) and Mandy Moore (Mandy Moore). It was called
All I Want, I think some might know it as
Forever 17 or some shit. The first was called
All the Real Girls. I dont know if I would recommend either. They were entertaining, but like, not riveting. I would have rather watched ROTK again.
All but one of my British, ok no, all but two, ok, no, I give up. I dont really know how many British relatives I have, but, six of them are currently hanging out at my Grandparents house for about two weeks. When they first arrived today around 8:00 Emma, the Dalmatian BIATCH dog that my Grandma and Gramps have, wouldnt stop barking for HOURS. I hate that dog with such a passion. One of my arch nemesis really. If I had to rank them I think the list would be as follows:
1.) CenturyTel
2.) Emma
3.) Will Maginty
4.) Ryan Hansen
5.) I know I am forgetting some nemesis s, Im sure I will remember eventually.
Will and Ryan both boys but disliked for two different reasons. Will thought he was so much smarter then everyone and his arrogances and ego pissed me off SO much during the four years I had AP classes with him all the pent up rage I had against him earned him a top spot on the list. Ryan Hansen was a friend gone bad. I would love to blame it on the drugs, but, he did the drugs, so, his choice right? I think you should all know by now why I hate CenturyTel so much, and yes, I do hate them as they are a company and an inanimate object of sorts. Emma is just the meanest animal I have ever come a crossed and I dont know to this day WHY they keep that bitch around. Anyways, relatives are around, in good condition and I will be going to grandmas for some cookie making fun tomorrow.
I have to move out of the old apartment on Sunday and then I will be going on a cruse on Lake Coeur D' lane to see all the Christmas lights. This is going to be tricky as Jen woks till 4:00 and I have to be in Idaho at 4:00 and I might just have to move all of her stuff when I move mine. Bummer. This morning I found out we cant move into the new apartments until the 6th because they arent even finished yet. Looks like me and the parents will be getting cozy for longer then I expected. Should be cheaper for me, but, who knows.
With all that said Im going to bed.
I just want to be able to see you in a million years up close and still have amazing things to say to you.

Shopping!
Wednesday, December 17, 2003
9:45 PM
Went shopping today. Much was accomplished. Dad gave me a cell phone. Dont know how long I will have it for but it works and now I am always tempted to use it. Reminds me of The One Ring. Prrrreciooousss.
Going to party it up at Kari and Adams house tonight. (Kaylas sisters apartment. Kari and Adam are married) Looks like its going to be me and Jen and Chels and Kayla and Kari and Adam and who knows who else. Should be a good time.
I ran into Five MILLION people I knew today at the mall. Tons from high school, old teachers, old friends. It was a good time. And last night, at the ROTK, like EVERYONE knew EVERYONE. It was insane. I saw a girl with the Evenstar pendant on. I had a vision of me asking to see it and then making a get away with it in my hand. Bad Smeagol. I was also downtown early this afternoon (where the AMC theaters are) and a guy headed towards the movie theater had a leaf of Lothlorien on. I love little shit like that. Only you know about it. Well, me and the rest of the LOTR fans in the world. Hehehe.
Off to take a nap or shower. Maybe both.

Listen all you all this is Sabotage
5:28 PM
Well, Henry is back. Tasha is trying to sabotage me as usual. ;) I didnt reply to the boys post and my joking reasoning to Tasha was because I didnt want him to feel too loved. Really its because I like to pretend I have disappear from the board when he is around. Have you ever done something so stupid and un-intentional it still makes you feel stupid to this day? When it shouldnt, of course, and no one else cares but you? Its the most ridicules thing in the world. I dont want to post, then he will see, know I am still around, realize how stupid I made him look, then I will forever be someone that made him look stupid and all I ever wanted was to be was a fan.
Im pretty sure Im an idiot. "No, not really."
Oh, and since this is NOT going to be posted on the board anymore, since hes back and all, CUT YOU HAIR. Maybe like a trim? Maybe a few inches? Maybe. For me? Well, more like for the good of your career. Thanks. Just snip snip. It's all I ask. Im hopeless.

ROTK
7:17 AM
I feel like my winter break is complete. I finally saw Lord of the Rings: Return of the King. It feels like it was all I was looking forward to, have been looking forward to for a long time. Say, about a year, since The Two Towers came out. I swear. Peter Jackson and George Lucas need to get together and Jackson needs to give Lucas a refresher course in INSANELY good movie making. Would make my world a whole hell of a lot easier. Well, more enjoyable. I cant wait for the DVD. Want to see what was cut out. Man, that was a good movie.

Hollar.
Tasha is straight up CUPCAKED OUT. Its making me want sweets.
Went out and got the tree today for my grandmas house. Proud to say its a lovely green and not Flocked, EW TASHA, and it will be decorated tomorrow. I just remembered I never added and changed the pictures to the left like I said I would. Oops. Maybe I should have made a list. Or not. You know what always pisses me off, my mom. Back in the day when I used to lose stuff a lot she would always be like, well Rachel, pick a special place and put your ___ (what ever was missing) there. Im like, yeah, great idea, but then I would pick a place and forget where the place was and then it would make things EVEN more complicated because then I didnt know where the "special place" was and while I am looking for the special place I forget what I was looking for in the first place. So, it was like I lost the item and the special place. What tool came up with that anyways. Oh yeah, my mom. And check this yo, she loses her purse when she is holding it and wonders where her glasses are when they are on her face. Yeah, I'll pick a special place Mom.
Its slick out but Chels and I want to go see Stuck on You. Dont know if that will pan out but since I just hit the 200 point mark on my AMC movie watchers card I have a free night at the movies. Large pop corn, drink and free movie ticket, even a stared attraction. Hollar.
I need new face wash.

Lazyness at it's best

Its Saturday and all I have accomplished is taking a bath. How sad is that. I have a whole hell of a lot of things to do today as well:
-send out X-Mas cards and packages (must finish cards first)
-clean around the house (for MONEY! WOOT)
-call my aunt and uncle and grab some cords from them
-pick my sister up at the airport
-hang out with Shmala
-do my hair for once (I've looked unattractive for two days now)
Ok, well, thats not to much to do...hehe.
Last night I went to Honey with Jnell. We missed Love Actually and it was my fault. Nothing a little dancing couldnt make up for. Came home and worked on my never ending X-MAS cards. I swear I have a disease. Its like when I want to write something cool and thoughtful and funny I cant. Ive got the LAMEST year book entrees EVER. So, Im sitting here trying to write in these cards and I am JUST sucking. I wish I could say this is the way that I used to be. So, I have about, ah, nine left, AHAHAH, Ive only finished two. SO, I must now get off the computer and get to accomplishing much with my free time. OH, yeah, guess what. Henry. Is. Hot.
*click*
I think these pictures were the reason some interesting dreams happened last night.
Oh yeah, its snowing. Again.

Guess Whos Back
Friday, December 12, 2003
7:36 PM
Guess who s back, back again? Ethans back, tell a friend. You dont even know how long I have waited to use that. Mr. Brockman might have been having a quarter life crises (maybe its just a stirring in his sole?) Who knows, either way Im glad he blogged. A very long one at that. I dont really know Ethan that well, so, a lot of things he said didnt hit home in the way he would have liked them to, but, I can still relate.
Today I went out to lunch with a friend from high school, Jnell (Jenelle) and then we ended up spending more time together then I thought. I missed her. Hadnt seen her since August and she even changed her hair color! It was always blonde but she has realized that brunets have more fun anyways.
I FINALY got ribbon for my Christmas cards and they will be finished tonight. This pushes back my big Holiday send out. The HenCon girls are going to shot me. Twice.
Going to see Love Actually tonight, again, for the third time. Jnell is in love with Colin Firth hence the going to the movie. Im headed to dinner soon with the parents and then to my aunt and uncles house if time permits.
Kayla is home! I havent heard from her, what else is new. Chels is home tomorrow. WOOT. Sunday we have big plans to get our X-mas tree and see Stuck on You.
Sometimes I wonder if other people read this and I dont know they do. I wonder what they think of me. Do they think anything of me? Do I come off as wicked cool as I really am? Who knows. Do they think Im in 5th grade because of my spelling skills? Probably.

BIATCHES!
Thursday, December 11, 2003
4:55 PM
You know, winter break was going well. I spent all of yesterday running errands with Jen and Ben and then Ben spent the night at my apartment and we wrote a paper together for him on underachievement, watched a movie, Jen and I did a total cleaning of the apartment and even though Jens cat was crazy go nuts all last night, I didnt mind too much. Then today starts off lovely as well. I take Ben to school, we have Burger King for breakfast, I loves the Egg and Cheese Croissant Sandwiches, then I come home, post on the IV board and take a three hour nap. I wake up and get on the internet only to find out that John is getting deployed and my hate for the Marines increased ten fold. He only has a year left and the SNEAKY bastards are going to send him off now. He was just going to be getting a kegorator as well. WEAK, Marines, WEAK.
Between 4:00-5:00 Im heading over to the crafters paradise (Jens Families house in Spokane about 3 minutes away from my house) and Im putting together some of the best, nay,
the best Christmas Cards EVER. They will be personalized, full of holiday cheer, and maybe a bit funny as well.
Kayla and Chels are arriving home this weekend. Im very excited. I feel like I havent seen Chels in AGES. Stupid SuperDave and school take all her time. Oh and boozing.
Note to Tasha: BLOG...lazy bum. :P

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!
At 5:17pm today my first quarter of college was officially over. Hollar. I have to go work out. Hhehe.
Oh, and I vote for Luke. Like, sissy, yeah, (Oh, why’d you slice off my hand) but STILL. Like, did you see him in Return of the Jedi? He kicked some dark side ASS. All Indiana Jones has going for him is that whip and that cool hat . Han Solo on the other hand...

Finals Rock the House
Monday, December 08, 2003
10:56 PM
First final of the week is down, one to go. Took my History final this morning and I am proud to say that I royally kicked its ASS. Quick, somebody ask me about Vassals and Lords, or maybe a little pop quiz on Sic et Non or Trivium/Quadrivium? Im HARD CORE. We got our Essays worth 100 points back today and guess who got 100%...Oh, you didnt know? Well, it was ME. Can you han-dle THAT. I have my Math final tomorrow from 4:00-6:00, pm of course, and its going to SUCK. I dont want to study and since I havent slept since Sunday morning at 11:30 I think its time for bed.
Meloche gets special love today for a wonderful E-mail he sent me. And Kelly, you commented twice on two different post and both comments said "Youre Funny". Heheh.
Whos cooler, Luke Skywalker or Indiana Jones?

Tasha
Sunday, December 07, 2003
1:30 AM
Man, I want to be getting drunk like Tasha is. Well, she better be. Heheh.
Been reading a store I havent read in a while. Its a story that makes me want to be successful, and fit and professional and cuddly and loved. Its a good story. I have read it millions of times each year. Found it back in my Sailor Moon days.
My Aunt and Brother put up the X-mas lights at my Grandmas house tonight. I wish someone would have told me, I would have gone over and helped. My family is weird. My parents dont celebrate X-mas, and I wasnt allowed to follow my own religious beliefs or lack there of until I was a sophomore in high school. The first few years doing Christmas was bumpy, I didnt like to talk about it around my parents. The sad thing is my dad used to love Christmas. My Grandma always tells me these great stories about how he used to find the perfect present for everyone and his wrapping would always be so lovely. The kid was a Christmas expert. It makes me sad to think about it. Today he asked me what money I was using to buy all my presents. I was like, what money Daddyo, he laughed. He asked if I was making cards, I said thats a big 10-4 Dad. The funny thing is he INSISTS that we buy presents for Grams and Gramps, as it is only right and he even takes my brother X-mas shopping for all his presents that will go to my Dads family. Its weird and sad and I wish I could have known my dad when he did Christmas. Christmas has become so commercialized and more of an American Holiday then a Religious one in some families. I give gifts because I love to. I love to shop for others, I love to see their faces when they open them. I love to give people gifts because I love them. My moms side of the family doesnt do Christmas as well. They used too. My mother and father and my moms mom and her second husband are of the same religion. It always makes holidays weird. All the kids take part in X-mas but the parents dont. Can you imagine spending a day that centers around family with out your parents? So, this is my 5th Christmas and I am looking forward to it. I dont know what I am going to do for presents, I want to get small things for people, but, as I dont have any money of my own I dont know what I will be doing. Ive never seen mistletoe on a door. I know the complete words to two Christmas carols and I have never had my own Christmas tree. Im looking forward to these things this year.
Im going to go clean. Mom said she would trade me cleaning for money. I have to pay for John Mayer, so, I better get to it.
Baby all I want for Christmas...

Blood and Purples. Not royalty, but bruses.
12:51 AM
I would like to inform you all of the injuries I have sustained in the past week. Get ready, Im falling apart. Curse of the Black Pearl style.
Tuesday 2nd: While working out and intensely walking on the treadmill, ok, so, really, you can walk on the treadmill and get a work out. I was going at a pace of 4.0 and it was inclined to 5.0. Its hardcore, I swears on, on the PRECIOUS! Anyways-Treadmill, walking, and my shoes take off the skin on the outside of both my ankles. It didnt bleed, but, it hurt like no ones bisnass.
Wednesday 3rd:Im working out again, on the treadmill again, dont laugh, and I look down and where my ankles where once is now just blood. The raw area from the day before was pushed passed its limit. So, the sides of my shoes we red and it was pretty gross. I dont know how I didnt feel it. Maybe I am invincible to pain like Superman. Note to self: stay away from glowing green rock. Check. Later that night Im grabbing a book and I ram my knee into Megs rocking chair. Final count: (down-Crambo RULES) Two bloody ankles and one HUGE bruise on my left knee.
Thursday 4th: Jen buys a cat and I receive many scratches of love. Jen is bitter as the kitty loves me more. What can I say folks. She steals my men; I steal the love of her cat. So, in revenge, as I am editing her final essay on the floor Jen takes it upon herself to FART right in my face. I go to hit her as hard as possible and instead of hitting her I hit the place in-between my upper and lower arm, I guess you could call it the reverse side of my elbow, on the wall. I stand up howling in pain and Jens laughing so hard she falls on the floor and Elbows my right foot smack down style. Jen: 2, Rach: 0. Thursday round up is two bruises of spectacular proportion.
Friday 5th: While transporting the cat from my car to my house she claws my right hand. It went so deep. Its a flesh wound ladies and gentlemen, its like a scratches fat relative from England that flew over for the holidays.
So, as you can see, or read, hahaha, Im in horrible condition and only wish to fall asleep. Alas all my bruises and aches make this difficult. Plus, Ben is in my bed. Bugger.
Kelly thinks Im funny. Twice. I like Kelly.
La-ters!!

Pros and Cons
Wednesday, December 03, 2003
6:37 PM
Things that happened today which I am happy about:
-John Mayer tickets (4th row) WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT
-Understanding parts of the math review
-Having a perfect English portfolio
-Making up a history test I missed
Things today that happened which I am
not happy about:
-My car is broken. It lets me drive it, but then, when I shift gears to park from Drive, it just dies and the little "check engine" light comes on! I need my car! I loves it! Its like my precious.
-I really should have read the parts in my Golden text more carefully before taking that History test. Heheh.
-Century Tel called, the a holes that give me a phone and internet. They say "call back", but they DONT leave a number and they DONT ever send us our bills on time and we have lived in this apartment for 3 months now and have only received ONE phone bill. I go ask about it and they are like, it has been sent (the bill), well, can I get a copy of it, no, we dont have a copy at our office in Cheney, they are sent from the regional office and BLAH BLAH BLAH. IF my credit gets Fucked UP because of FUCKING CENTURY FUCKING TEL, I swear. Im about to get a fing cell phone and tell those Century Tel AHOLEs to shove it.
-I happen to always get stuck with leading groups. People dont speak up, they dont have ideas, so, the natural born leader in me takes over so things get done. This is what happened today in English and its why I have home work up the ass tonight. Thanks group, I owe you one. Up the butt that is.

JOHN MAYER!!
Tuesday, December 02, 2003
6:26 PM
Alright Alright Alright Alright Alright Alright Alright now Ladies....
Whats cooler then John Mayers fall tour? Thats right, NOTHING. The biatch is touring with MAROON5 and they will be exactly 6 hours and 23 minutes away from me for 3 shows. One show is in Vancouver, BC, the others in MT and ID. The thing is right, that I am sure there will be a show in Sea Town, but as other dates arent confirmed I need to buy my John Mayer tickets NOW, well, on the 3rd when the local 83 pre-sale starts incase other shows arent any closer. So, here is whats going to happen. I will see him in Vancouver, but then he will be in Seattle AND in Portland and I will be forced to buy those tickets as well. GOD DAMMIT, why do I love John Mayer so much? So, in conclusion, I need a job, I need it now, and it must pay lots of money.
Between JM and HenCon, Im never going to be able to get my hair done or my nails did. WTF. Oh well.
