It's 5:30 in the am. I'm insane.

Yesterday...

Yesterday was entirely way too fun. Good times on the RCC couches. Katrina, Ali, Aly, and Tracy are some funny girls. BJ is always funny, but for some reason he was just hilarious yesterday. Also, it was Ass Appreciation Day. I'm thinkin' that's why the day was so great.

Chrissy- I liked my hair all big and crazy and so did Zach, so ha! =P

A new game for us to play: boob tag.

Huff didn't show up to speech team, or might have shown up late, but Zach and I left early. He was in sort of a somber mood, which concerned me a bit, but he got better when we were away from a lot of people. We hung out at his house for awhile, and then went to see Indentity. Everyone: GO SEE THIS MOVIE. It's a super-great, mind-blowing, amazingly awesome movie. I like it so much, I'm gonna put it in my list of favorites. It was so refreshing because nothing of it was predictable. I can't even begin to explain it without giving everything away- I love those kinds of movies. I want it to come out on video so I can watch it again and again.
We then came back to his house and hung out some more. He's probably gonna tell some story about how he embarrassed me, but don't believe a word of it...none! ...crap.

Mike is gonna drive the train!! =)

Oh!!! I might be getting a pet duck! Someone left it at the zoo and Dave might let me have it. It's still a baby, so it's all yellow and fuzzy and cute. It's name is Asparagus...Gus for short. =) He's gonna live in a kiddie pool on my front porch. Yay!!!

"Whores don't get second chances."

"I saw a kid bounce off the deck by the koi pond yesterday..."

That was quite possibly the greatest thing I heard all day. Thank you, Ian Moulton, for your never-ending random comments.

The rest of the day, as great as Renee and the new girl, Beth, made it- I'm EXHAUSTED.

Hypothetical situation:

let's say that someone were hypothetically sick for a hypothetical couple of days and slept for a hypothetical 12 hours one night, and the next night after hypothetically working all day, this someone's hypothetical boyfriend calls when he's done with work an hour after he's supposed to get off and is like, "wanna hypothetically hang out?". "You hypothetically betcha!" she says and merrily goes her way to his house. she's hypothetically there until 3:30 in the hypothetical am. she hypothetically has to be at work at 8am and stay there until 7pm. hypothetically speaking, what should she have done?

...ok guys, that was me. Did I fool you with the hypotheticals?? ;-) Of course I did.

Yeah, so that's why I'm so tired. Dumb boys and the effects they have on me. Oh, and whatever anyone says- I'M NOT CUTE WHEN I'M SICK!!!

Renee Baker has the same-sized hands as me. Ha! I'm not a freak!!

Oh, another funny story- the new girl, Beth, obviously never had any animal science classes, because a peacock was seducing a peahen and she was like, "Are they gonna fight?" and I was like, "No, they're gonna do it." Then she asked me if the peahen was sick because it has no long feathers like the peacock. She didn't realize that the females looked different from the males. It made me laugh. ...I'm a nerd.

I think I need to sleep........

I'm at work now on my break. I love having seniority or something like that so I can log into computers around here and do random things...blogging for instance.

I'm all better now- no delirious incoherent nonsense coming from my mouth- no sir! It'll be my usual random stuff that y'all like to make fun of me for. There's a difference, I'm sure.

Mike, Erin, and her roomate Jessie came to the zoo yesterday. I love it when people I know come to the zoo when I'm there. Especially people I know and like. Hey, Mike- I left a note on Mike's desk w/ your number on it about you driving the train, so there! I'm good to my BFF. =)

I just smelled myself- I smell like cotton candy, hot dogs, popcorn, and cherry sno-cone juice. Oh, how I love to work in the zoopermarket. I wasn't supposed to, but we're short-handed today and I had to train a new girl. I should NOT train people. I suck at explaining things. One time I was a tutor, I think it was in seventh grade, and all three people I tutored had to be held back a grade. I'm not gonna put it all on my poor tutoring abilities, but... I'm no good at explaining things.

Chrissy and I helped the environment this morning. We recycled for extra credit. I beat her by 9 pounds, and made an astonishing $5.60. Ooh dang.

I still have 15 minutes until I have to clock back in...

Oh, so I'm getting the purple ones. The rainbow ones aren't even rainbow- they're colorful stripes that aren't even in roygbiv sequence. Give it up, kids- I'm getting the purples. The zebras were tempting, but I think I'd grow bored with them. I'll show them to the other zoo girls and maybe one of them will get them. PURPLE.

I don't lie to Mike Hagan- I embellish the truth.

He likes it.

I still haven't called Teri to tell her we aren't living with her. Does this make me a bad person??

I didn't think so either.

Oh!! Ben is back working! He's no longer a cripple. I do enjoy that boy- he makes me laugh a whole bunch. I didn't get to see him much today, but he did help us in the zooper when we were hella busy. Woot for Ben. =)

I have to be here from 8-7 tomorrow. Yay?

Help me pick a shoe I want! My orange ones are on their death bed, and while I LOVE them...I need to move on.











Vote, vote away! =)

I had something to blog about, but because I'm slightly ill I think I made it up and am delirous.

Ummm- next Wednesday, April 30th (Zach's b-day): Plain White T's, RHV, and the Killowatts (best lineup EVER!!!). 7:00 in East Peoria. $5. We're forming a posse- come with us!!! =)

*cough*

I'm sick, gimme some luvin'!!!

I mowed today. I hurt. I have blisters on my hands. I loathe the hills in my yard with a baby-eating passion. I'm so out of shape it's disgusting. I had to use the push-mower rather than the sit-down because I wasn't in the mood to change its oil.

Whatever Zach says, I didn't trick him into skipping class and going to lunch with me today. I didn't!!!!

His birthday's in eight days. Yay!

Honesty is the best policy- always.

My BFF's are back from Portland!!! YAY!!!

Oh yeah- Dan White thinks I'm weird and is grossed out by the "Lick Her While She's Not Looking" game. Ha!

I don't know if the person the last blog was for realized it was for her (I love you, friend, and I'm sorry things have gone to crap lately), but I'm glad it had an effect on someone anyways- I luv ya, Sarah! =)

I miss Jessica and Renee. I'll be happy when Jessica comes home, and then I'll have to go visit Renizzle down in C-dale over the summer. Road trip, what?

What do you do when you have no control over the way things are going? How do you let someone know that they really do mean more to you than they will ever give themselves credit for? How do you make them see what you see? Why can't we fix our mistakes in time? Why is the past still there? Why do they not know that they are worth everything?

Plain White T's- "Shine"


You know it tears me up inside to see the feelings that you hide- hide inside that empty bottle. I wish you saw how great you were. I wish you saw what life was worth. You wouldn't have to hide your problems. And I don't care what you might think, I think you've had too much to drink...can't even talk when you're this way.

Run away, run away...that won't make it any better.
Run away, run away...make tomorrow harder to live than today.

There's so much out there you could miss, there's so much of life out there to live, if you would just believe in yourself. You know you're better than all of this, you know you've got so much to give, but you're so afraid to give of yourself...

There's a bright light shining inside you, shines out through your eyes. Don't drown it away, don't be afraid, don't hide- let it shine...

You say you're looking for happiness, but when it comes you run away from it. You tell yourself you don't deserve it. There's not much more that I can do- and now the rest is up to you, until you love yourself, you'll never change...

Easter Weekend, Scovill Zoo: stressful and insane. I liked it though because I worked with Gretchen, one of the new girls, and she's so cool. She's one of those people you meet who's had a rough life, but has so many great stories from it. She and I bonded over our insane mothers. The only difference between them is that hers was actually put in an institute for a period of time. Hmmmm... Anyways- yay for new people.

My dog is having puppies in May, and I'm gonna give them Spanish names.
The boys: Hector, Juan, Miguel, Carlos, and Raul
The girls: Marisela, Pilar, Rosa, Nina, and Lousia

New thing I like: face, and lots of it...

...I didn't say that.

Speaking of being a girl (bah):

Chrissmarie: you're beaming, admit it
SJGBluClu3: i'm generally always beaming when thinking about zach
SJGBluClu3: ignore that comment
SJGBluClu3: that was totally girly

I'm girly without even noticeing these days. I swear, if I buy a pink skirt I give EVERYONE permission to pummel me- all at once. It'll be grand.

MIKE, AARON, AND CHRIS COME BACK HOME TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I take people for granted and I suck at being a girl. Bah.


Quotations from Erin Childers:

"I wanted to grab a guy's crotch yesterday."

"It's really soft, Chrissy. You should touch it."


Last night, Chrissy and I joined up with Erin, Nick Weber, and Jenna Roberts, and then later some guy named Jeremey and two other guys named Adam and Aaron. Good times were had. It's fun to branch out and hang out with new people. =) Just so everyone knows, Red Dragon is a CREEPY movie! Later in the night, Chrissy and I hung out with Erin in her room and I called Jessica at like midnight or something because she and I have been married for two months today-- Zach and I have been dating since then too. Happy Two Months times two??

Here's my final plan that I'm definitely going through with:

~one more year at Richland, only part time
~get another job along with the zoo
~go to the U of I next year
~apartment

The counselor we talked to there told us that I shouldn't have any problem getting in next year. My grades are good enough and all the extra stuff I do looks great. My mom explained to him that this past year has been rough, and he thought that staying another year and taking it easy would be a good idea. FINALLY my mother listened. She doesn't listen to me, but she will listen to other people who tell her the exact same thing I do. Gah!

Easter Egg Hunt at the zoo tomorrow- it's gonna be insane. INSANE!!!!

I have no future, and for the time being...I'm pretty happy about that. Oh, to not have expectations to fail. It's such bliss. I don't have anyone's standards to live up to, I don't have to meet any goals...

It's circus time, kids! =)

Don't shout out at me anymore! Leave me obscene phone calls...

Wha cha!

I stole this from Erin and Amy's blogs, but it seemed like a really cool thing to do...I'm a sheep. Baaaa!

Sarah- I got both of your cards finally...thanks, friend!

Melissa- You need to get shout outs or something, because I just read your blog and thanks for the happy birthday, and it sounded like you guys had a great time at prom! =) woot

So guess what kids- it's time for me to reevaluate my life plans yet again...I didn't get into the U of I. Is it bad that I'm not upset about it? I guess I just liked the town and thought that I'd like to go to school there. Who knows what I'm gonna end up doing. Some more RCC, then ISU?? I just really don't want to live at home any more. Living with Teri would have been cool...minus the whole her having an old boyfriend who just happens to be the zoo's vet...too weird! I doubt it, but I just might change my major again because the only thing I seem to be getting A's on these days are my papers. I got a friggin 95% on my poetry paper that I wrote the morning it was due. Did someone say English major? I'm gonna stick with environmental communications (I don't believe that's an actual major, although U of I had agricultural communications...), and work at a conservation area and write about it...or something.

I got The Best of Silverchair Vol. 1 on Saturday, but I've only gotten a chance to listen to it now. It's super fantastic so far. Yay for good music! The acoustic version of "Ana's Song" is on it and that makes me happy. Everyone should buy it. NOW!

Oh my goodness, my birthday was a rockin' good one! I realized that no matter how crappy the first few days of the week will be in the future, my great friends will refuse to let my birthday be anything but fantastic. =)

Friday night, Zach did cute boyfriend things...he took me to the sandy area on the lake, lit orange-sherbert scented candles, and had us sit on a blanket while we listened to a CD he made me. (awww) When we were getting ready to go, he blew out a candle and some how got wax all over his face which made him say something along the lines of, "I suck at being romantic! I quit!" All in all, he's a big nerd, but I adore every nerdy bit of him. =)

Renee sent me a birthday e-mail...I miss her!

Yesterday, I had to work from 9-3, but I got there late and everyone (Sarah, Diane, Shannon, and Lori) was waiting for me on the elevator. I push the button to go down and when the door opened, they all yelled, "Surprise! Happy Birthday!" and scared the crap out of me. Sarah had gotten me cupcakes and a balloon.
I didn't even have to tell Ryan it was my birthday, either, but it was funny how he wished it to me- Shannon got the zooper register stuck and I was trying to fix it, but was having trouble and he was like, "You're pathetic!" and I glared at him, so he was like, "Happy Birthday???" It was funny.
Then, I rode with Ian and him while they drove the train, and as we went through the tunnel, Ian was like, "Everyone wish Sandra a happy birthday!" so all the passengers yelled "HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Sandra!!!!!" It was so great.
When I got off work, Zach and I went to Perkins where Erin, Amy, and Terri collectively called and sang to me. They were cute. =) Zach and I went back to his house and Jessica called me too. Then Chrissy called me to steal me away, but not before Zach gave me his final b-day present... After he did, she and I went to Carlos O'Kelley's where Mike called me from Portland! I was so excited that he had called...they've only been gone for two days, but I miss my BFF. We then headed off to see Bringin' Down the House which was an amusing movie, even though people were smoking in our theater. Isn't there a rule???

I love all of my friends and am so happy I have them. Thank you all for a super-fantastic birthday! I'm still giddy. yay. =)

I was a bit of a recluse all week, so when I got to hang out with Zach yesterday/last night, it was much-needed...I missed him making me laugh.

Example:

Zach: so these new pants are annoying because my boxers keep getting bunched up, and i moved them this way and that way, but it just didn't work...
Me: so a good part of your morning was spent playing with your crotch??
Zach: yes...I...was...thinking of you?? [insert confused look here]
Me: AHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA


That and he and I found something we do NOT having in common...our tastes in cereal. He likes stuff like Smacks, Honeycombs, and Lucky Charms, while I like old-lady cereal like Wheaties, Cracklin Oat Bran, and Grape Nuts. He nearly disowned me when I told him that I hate Fruit Loops and Rice Krispies. Captain Crunch is about as sugar-coated as I get. I'm sorry I'm old.

What I learned in environmental biology yesterday:

~a dried Tiger penis ground into your drink will give you "vitality like you wouldn't believe"
~12 baby monkeys doped up on NyQuil will fit into your pants
~so will a lot of exotic turtles...minus the NyQuil


MY BIRTHDAY IS TOMORROW!!!!!

Today was a better day. I thought it might be worse, but for some reason it wasn't. Hmm- I know I mentioned a few things that have gone down in the last year, but I didn't mention anything that has gone up...here it is: my ability to let people down. That has definitely increased. Left and right, I'm just a big disapointment.

Anyways, now that I've slept my depression away (ha!), it's time to come back to the real world. That involves responsibilities...like typing up a ten-page paper for biology. Oh, but I already have! Last year for Eng. 102 I wrote a paper on water pollution...lucky me. I just didn't type up a works cited page, so I didn't know what my sources were. So far, I've found all but two, which I'm gonna make up. Cheat?!? You betcha!

I mean...cheating is bad and you should never do it.

...ever.

I got a camera today for my birthday. It's the only thing I asked for and the only thing I got. It's not fancy or anything, just a regular load-with-film-point-and-shoot camera. My old one died over Chrissy's and my spring break trip. However, I'm all snap-happy, so watch out! You WILL get photographed.

Speaking of...in case you've lost count of the days...THREE DAYS UNTIL MY BIRTHDAY!!!!!

Mike, Aaron, and Chris are going to Portland, Oregon on Friday for the nationals speech competition. Wish them luck! =)

Today was kind of a tough one for me...bear with me, kids. One year ago tomorrow my dad died, however it happened on a Tuesday morning, so I woke up this morning and realized this. I thought too too much about it and cried a lot. I wrote my paper for poetry, drove to school to give it to my teacher, and then left. I came back home to study some for biology, but went to sleep instead. I then came back to school for stats and to take my bio test, and I'm sure most of you noticed that I wasn't all there. Chrissy and I went to the zoo and Subway, but I just had to go home after that. I couldn't stick around for my next class, or anything else (sorry, Chris). When I got home around 2, I went straight to bed and woke up about 10 minutes ago. My sister figured out awhile back that when I get sad, I sleep. This time last year, I know I slept a good 27 hours straight. I hate to cry, so I think sleep helps me escape from the world and keeps me from crying all at the same time. Now don't worry and think that whenever I go to sleep, I'm sad- I tend to do that when I'm tired too. When you need to worry is when I go to sleep at odd times for a long time.

So yeah, most of you don't know what happened with my dad. He just died. No heart attack, no stroke, nothing dramatic. He just went to sleep and never woke up. He even worked until 11 pm the night before he died, so it was all unexpected. I can accept death when there isn't suffering, which is why I thought I was ok with him dying...everyone has to do it, but I just miss him like crazy. He was the best dad ever and he loved my mom, sister, and me so much. If God had to take a dad, why couldn't he have taken an abusive father who didn't care about his kids?? Why did He have him die when he did?? Dad won't be able to see my sister or me get married, he won't be able to see his grandkids...more importantly they will never get to know how awesome their grandpa was. I could talk to him about anything- he let me vent to him about Mom, and now I don't really have anyone to do that with but this stupid blog. I know I have all of my fantastic friends who will listen to me, but opening up is just so hard. It's been even worse since he died. Everything has gone to crap- my concentration, my memory...

As for that, it seems the only thing I can remember clearly is what happened from Easter of last year 'til the day he died. Easter was the last time I actually saw my dad for a good amount of time, because I went to school during the day, and he worked later in the evening. I just remember him being so upset with me because I had to work a long day on my birthday, and he wanted me to get it off so we could go out to dinner, but I was being stubborn and didn't want to get it off. I told him that we could celebrate it some other day...

Well, that day never came. He didn't even get to see me turn 19. He died three friggin' days before my birthday. I don't want them to be, but I know that every birthday from now until forever is gonna be crappy. Thanks a lot, God. You couldn't have taken my father away from me on some generic day in July or something?? I've never been super-religious, but nothing makes you question your faith more than the crappy timing of death.

I heard this song right after he died, and it's quite fitting...yes it's Dashboard...bite me!

"For Justin"

It's been a year now since you were here now And
I've been trying to heal inside Dedications have all
been placed And I see your resemblance in my
face And on our birthday I said an extra wish for
you (for you)

And I have learned so much since you've been gone
And I have done so little for so long So now I'll
settle up my grievances And focus on the savory
And wave all these discrepancies away And I'll
peter out these misconceptions Give out faith at
my discretion Live a life that you would think was
sane (sane)

Displaying changes That they have made And I
wonder if you ever really wanted it this way And in
your memory they even hung a plaque for you
(for you)

And I have learned so much since you've been gone
And I have done so little for so long. So now I'll
settle up these grievances And focus on the
savory And wave all these discrepancies away. And
I'll peter out these misconceptions, Give out faith
at my discretion Live a life that you would think
was sane (sane)

I can't please you...or you...or you...and hey- I can't please you either...nope, not you...

So, if anyone has any suggestions as to how I can please y'all all at once, that'd be great.


~thanks~


PS. Breaking up with the boyfriend is NOT an option...so get used to it.

*sigh*


This transition into being a girl is a stressful business. Zach thinks it's cute when I get "girly", but for me it's such torture. I like it, but I don't. I'm not used to someone liking me this much, and it's slightly overwhelming...but I like it...or am getting used to it anyways...


In other news, work yesterday was fun...i think? We had only one actual visitor come to the zoo, and his name is Zach Schultz. It was still fun because I got to work with Shannon May. I missed Shannon. She and I laugh so so much. Ryan Kirkland visited me too when he was supposed to be doing stuff in the herpaquarium, but he slacked for an hour with us instead. I missed haning out w/ that kid. He's fun!

Speaking of the herpaquarium...or the "herp" if you're down...
sex was had in there Saturday night...on the floor...in the back in front of crickets...

*chirp*

FIVE DAYS UNTIL MY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!

I love work! Yesterday, I had to fill the pop machines, and got my first work-related injury of the year. It was awesome!! I scraped myself and bled and everything.

Today was cold so I didn't have to work in the Zoopermarket. I got to stock the gift shop and decorate the display room. Then Mike, Amy, Terri, and Erin came to visit me. I love to have visitors at work. We roamed around and Erin was way amused with the Zoo Key boxes..."zoology is science that benefits mankind". Hey, girls, call me *wink*. When they left, I priced 7 billion bean bag snakes. Mike (my boss) left around 4 o'clock, so Renee and I sat in the office for an hour and a half and did absolutely nothing but talk. Dang, I love my job. Even with the slacking Renee and I did, it was a long day. 9-7 is a crazy-long shift. I think I did more than I remember, because my back hurts and my feet are sore...either that or I'm just out of shape. Yeah, that's probably it. Another 9-7 tomorrow...yay.

My birthday is in one week!!!!!!!!

Ok, for the love! I was right the first time. Ahmet! Ahmet! Ahmet! See if I ever listen to my boyfriend ever again...


...I just lied. I like to listen to him.


I get to go to work in about a half hour. I'm so so excited! We're gonna be cleaning and moving stuff around, and probably hard manual labor of sorts, but I don't care. I get to work with Mindy today. =)

I loves me some Hobby Lobby. I went there to get more sealer to finish off the purple and blue table, and got side-tracked by every isle. I'm an arts and crafts nerd...bite me!

My mom gave me a good idea for my lawn furniture. For the seat cushions, I'll find a fun shower curtain to cover them with. I knew she was good for something other than yelling at.

Peace and chicken grease.

Yes, kids, I know that you can't tell how many shout outs there are. It annoys me too. Bah.


So I stand corrected, it's Ahmed...and Zach was not asleep and heard us singing... Meh, we never said we were good!


Guess what kids... I WON!!!!!!! I did not give in to Mike's peer pressure. Put THAT in your bowl and smoke it, Michael Patrick Hagan. He wanted me to skip class again and go to Pizza Hut, but even after an hour or so of persistance...I didn't go! I won! But, here's the funny thing, after all the persisting...my class was cancelled, but I still didn't go with them. Ha!

I'm looking forward to all of the visitors I'm gonna have this weekend. Weeee!!! I'm so giddy for work, it's disgusting. YAY!

(I'm weird and random this week...forgive me because next week I'll probably be all deep and crap...duh duh duuuuuh)

Other people seem to like the blue, Mike, so back off! =)


OkGo rocks me so hard. They're such a fun band to see live. Chrissy, Zach, and I went to see them last night at the Canopy Club. I had us park 5 miles away, because I thought it was somewhere it wasn't, so we had to walk forever to get there...when we do, Chrissy forgot her ID, and because she wasn't dressed like a slut, they wouldn't let her in. Soooo, we had to walk all the way back to her car to get it. Those bastards made us miss the first bands! Oh well, Gage told us that they weren't very good anyway. We got there to see who we wanted, and that's all that matters. Zach told me that he thought the bassist looked like Ahmet Zappa...I was so excited when he told me that because I kept telling people last time we saw them that he looked like him, but no one knew who I was talking about. Read a book, kids, Frank Zappa had children...Ahmet, Dweezil, and Moonunit.

Back to the rest of the night, Chrissy and I did the usual tradition of belting out Dashboard on the way back home from Champaign while Zach (I think) slept. We dropped him off and then went to (where else) Steak & Shake. An old man paid for our food. We were hit on by a senior citizen. It was bizarre, let me tell ya, but we didn't complain because free food is the best food.

B-day countdown: 9 days =)

*sigh*

Muuuuuch better.


Maybe it was an early April Fool's joke?

ha ha, blogger- reeeaaaal funny.
