You're just a girl; you tend to get frustrated easily, you daydream quite a bit, and you try to avoid making trouble, though curiosity always gets the better of you. Even under tight circumstances, however, you put aside (some of) your fear and figure out what's the best thing to do. You want a better understanding of your world.



i'm so horribly amused. i answered alllll the questions truthfully... *sigh* i'm doomed to be alice forever.

You have an air of intelligence about you, some might even perceive you as being stuck up. You seem like you may be a nice person when you're not throwing one of your ever-present hissy fits and being a bitch to everyone. And take off your socks when you make whoopie, he hates it!

Take The "Which Kevin Smith Female Are You?" Quiz!!


renata and i are the same kevin smith female! high five renata! *virtual highfive*

merry merry christmas too all! (i initially typed 'to al'... merry christmas al) um... we opened presents. i got lots of cool stuff, but my favorite was rob's present. thank you. (rob, if you're reading this, you need to get off yo skinny butt and call me ~_^)


renata, if you're reading this (you'd better be reading this, if you abandoned my blog, i'm going to cry *makes a sad face* ;-;) you need to ... call me or email me... or... show proof of your existence! i miss you! life's hard without my best friend, and it's even harder when i don't even get to TALK to my best friend (we haven't seen each other since.... san francisco... dear god.... renata, you need to come to iowa city, right now.)


i'm wearing my new scarf and coat. i'm so pretty. ignore the fact that i haven't showered, and my hair is all gross... and i'm wearing pajamas (new WONDERFUL pajama pants... but pajamas nonetheless). we got a dvd player... it's kind of ghetto, but it works. and i got the moulin rouge dvd, which i LOVE and have watched like.... three times, including all the bonus stuff. (mmmm, ewan)


aaah, i'm... tired. my blog is falling into disrepair. look at all the broken images! aah! don't look at them! look away! *sigh*


damn it all, i woke the furby up. he's singing now. alas, alas. i'll just hope he doesn't wake up furby number two. they'll never shut up once they get to talking to eachother. i have to put them under hats when they really start going... and even then, they still talk... they just talk about how dark it is... instead of about dancing and singing... and furbish stuff.


i smell like chocolate. cocoa butter actually. mmmmm. yay for scar healing goodness of cocoa butter. *smells cocoa butter* .... reeeenaaata! i'm so bored! entertain me! or rob, come home, and entertain me... i'm SO bored. bryan's bored too... we're gonna have to go do something this week. it'll be funnn times *fun with lots of n's. that just how funnnnnn it'll be.)


well, i've ceased making sense, which is a sure sign that it's time for me to shut up and go to bed. so, buenos nachos my friends (and people who hate me but read this just to see what a moron i am)

12.23.2001

tomorrow's christmas eve, and guess what i'm doing... oh yeah, working. noon until like... forever *sob* but we're opening presents as soon as i get home (yaaaay presents). also, fun story, i was at work until TWELVE THIRTY last night. meaning we closed for TWO AND A HALF HOURS *sob* it was awful.


my aunts and my cousin are here.


i'm bored. bah.


reeeenaaaata. wheeeeere arrrre yoooooou?!


i miss renata.


ack, i have to RESEND this stupid cd to this girl from the rentboards. she's making this huge deal like i haven't sent it to her, and i ripped her off, and how the HELL am i to know that she hasnt't gotten both cds i sent her, eh? it pisses me off. especially since her entire existence seems to revolve around her telling everyone how horrible her life is, and trying to get pity....bah, she annoys me. always has. i initially tried to be friends with her, but she was just too obnoxious. she'll prolly read this and go rant to the rentboards about how horrible i am, and how no one likes her. oh well.


i have christmas cards and gifts laying all over my room. i neeeeed to give these to people! ack! *sigh*

12.17.2001

feeling: really sick. *coughes*


should be: i'm sure there's something i ought to be doing. but i'm so tired i can't remember what it is.


nails: they're going to be HELLA cool tomorrow. make sure to look.


listening: nsync


thoughts: i ate alot today. i was just thinking of that. i really ate ALOT. like two days worth of food. (for me... keep in mind, i drink carnation instant breakfast, have a bowl of soup of lunch, and generally skip dinner) i ate a lot yesterday too. yuck. i need to settle down.


i worked from 5 - close today. so like.. *counts* six... and a half hours? ish? yeah. i'm so tired. i did stupid sandwich registers. and stupid tom and dan were the managers. bah. and kristen kept not doing anything and it made me all irate. so i made a peanut butter sandwich and whined to marin and tricia. it was nice.


and something cool happened today, hamm wants me to do this thing... or... something. *shrug* it's like, a workshop of a musical at the university. www.insarajevo.com should be cool... there's a reading from 10-2 on wednesday, so i'm gonna go to that and see how it all pans out. it should be cool. i need to e-mail the guy, then go to bed. so goodbye all you people... who are... reading this... yeah.

12.16.2001

wow, i'm tired. it's late. i didn't get off work until 11:40, it sucked. not enough people working, lots of irate christmas shoppers... one woman said she was going to have me fired. (in keeping with david sedaris, i wanted to say "oh yeah? i'm going to have you killed" but i didn't) i'm absolutely coated in like... a layer of grossness. lots of espresso, and soup... and bread crumbs. and mop water... and lemonade...


renata's blog isn't opening. *sigh* i'm really not in a talking mood. i've been awake too long, i've been working all day, so everyone just shut up and let me blog in peace!!!!*breaks down crying* *renata's blog opens* hey, a who's who page!! *looks* IT'S ME! AAAAHG! (luckily, the picture's so light you can't actually see me! bwahahaha) i got all excited that my name was a link... so i clicked it. and it toook me to my blog, and i was like "wow! a page about me! ... oh yeeah, MY page about me..." yeah, it's really late. um, i'm tired. um, i have to get up early (uh... like 11) tomorrow, because rob and i are going to go to cedar rapids to see the imax, (took me like 9 times to type that) and the science station. much fun is sure to be had by all. my phone just fell off the wall, poltergeist... it's the only explanation.


the next time i have more than five minutes to be online, i promise i will fix all the images that don't work on this page. really, i promise *nod*.

12.14.2001

feeling: ugly (see, i didn't get over it. damn.)


should be: sleeping.


thoughts: i feel the need to contemplate. and really think things out. but i think i'm going to do it in my journal.... so as to save face, because it's stuff that i feel silly for contemplating. i'm wondering... about stuff. (if i sound deep, don't be fooled, i'm just confused and sleepy)


i work at nine hour shift tomorrow. yuck.


goodnight
wearing: pajama pants, a black t-shirt, and my long sweater.


eating: a blueberry bagel


should be: writing an essay for mr. neuzil. i already wrote one of them, but i dont' ahve the damn article i need to write the second one. he said it would be on his website, and it ISN'T.

listening to: the beatles.


nails: purple. and still wet. i shouldn't be typing. doh, i just smudged my left thumb.


thoughts: worked today (and yesterday) and i work TONS next week (also, i work three-close this saturday... and we dont' close til TEN! AAAAAGH.) i'm tired. and TIRED. and TIIIIIIRED *cries*


i feel ugly. look away, look away! hopefully i'll be over it by tomorrow. i keep shivering. not like, i'm cold... but like, the "someone walked over your future grave" shudder thing. like, there must be a soccer match going on where i'm goign to be buried. *shudder*.

I am a Blue Moai in a Carpark.

My dilute pastiche of frozen dreams eats the reinforced hydrogen of time. Apple garages rake blind oil through my excitable architecture. I bring loose mechanisms to the windy sandstone.

Why the right kangaroo? The Utterly Surreal Test

If I were a work of art, I would be M. C. Escher's Lizards.

I am a bizarre juxtaposition of the real and the unreal. Based in the realm of mathematics, my two-dimensional appearance belies a complex and free-willed behaviour which both delights and confuses people.

Which work of art would you be? The Art Test



aaaaand, when i'm hyper *nod*

If I were a work of art, I would be Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa.

I am extremely popular and widely known. Although unassuming and unpretentious, my enigmatic smile has charmed millions. I am a mystery, able to be appreciated from afar, but ultimately unknowable and thus intriguing.

Which work of art would you be? The Art Test



so, this is me, the first time (so, this is me when i'm not in a hyper mood, i'll do the test again, accounting for hypernes...)
i spent almost two hours at the mall, just writing. it was SO nice. wow, who'd have thought that the mall, full of all it's stupid christmas shoppers, could actually calm me down and make me happy? i just sat and wrote... about people, about what the people made me think of... it was nice. then i went to minde matters and visited cory. cory rocks my sushi stand. there was something funny that renata said. that i wanted to blog. but i forgot what it was.


sidenote, an alarming number of people i either don't know very well, or don't like, have gotten my cell phone number. and they call me all the time. *sigh*


ummmmm, i hate having to get up early to go in and watch videos and stuff for psych. it sucks. i want to be able to sleep until 8 again. i need to be able to... because i can't go to sleep earlier than like, 11. speaking of which, friends is on, i'm gonna go watch it.

"drew?!! you're out here tooo?? we must have... PMS!!" (aric, as quoted by andrea. he meant ESP.)


there were lots more, but i can't remember them *falls asleep*


i have a post i wrote a couple days ago and never posted.. i'll post it someday...

12.03.2001




heeeey, it's (part of) the alice in wonderland cast! ok, so, from left to right.... a bunch of cards, the gryphon (matt h.), the white rabbit (richard), the king of hearts (tyler), the queen of hearts (queenie. i mean, abi), the tweedles (dum - jon, dee - colin), the white knight (matt c.) the white chess queen (brett), alice (ME!), the red chess queen (lowell), the ladies in waiting (jayne and amanda), the mock turtle (nick), the knave of hearts (devon) and some more cards... the march hare is all the way at the end (rob).


the run of the show was much fun. thursday was THE WORST OPENING EVER. ooooh my god. nearly 50 seconds of me standing ALONE on stage... improving and talking to myself (And repeating myself) while two ensemble members fucked up the table. but alas. i suppose i'm over it.


friday was much better. and nina and paulina and abi and i went to perkins after the show, and had SO much fun.


saturday the tweedle scene went to hell, but it was still ok. the cast party was at my house, nina spent much of it trying to rape jon. pooor jon. (and i suppose, poor nina, since she didn't succeed) then lisa and nina and abi and missy and paulina spent the night at my house. ("nina! don't touch my vagina!" "abi! shut up! my arms are crossed!" "then who's touching my vagina!?" ... yeah, nina and abi's duo is the vagina monologues...)


sunday was fun, and strike didn't take all that long. went to perkins after the strike, goodtimes.


i'm going to very much miss singing the "i have a nose" song with abi. *sniffle*


i'm tired. so goodbye.


*megan*
