| | so effin' good | ] | At work right now with mom on our day off (I work in a dental office with my mom... suck it). Just got outta school about an hour ago. All in all, a pretty boring day. Just school as usual.
Supercross is tomorrow, I'm very excited. Ian and I are going, and mom got us floor seats... but the only downside is the fact that Supercross is at Qualcomm... which is outdoors, and it's going to rain ALL weekend. So I'll probably get all soaking wet and get pneumonia or something, haha. Oh well, it'll be worth it.
Things are going great right now. School is going well, I'm kicking ass in all of my classes... work is good, I totally love my job... Ian & I are doing as good as ever, I love him SO much and he makes me the happiest I've ever been. =) Life is so good right now. I'm really enjoying myself. Things are really starting to fall into place, and I love it.
Spring break is coming up, and we all know what that means!!! That means I'm gonna be leavin' for 7 days =( Sad, I know, but maybe you can all get a support group together... or something. But yeah, I'll be gone from March 22nd-29th in Hawaii. I'll miss everyone but I'll be having a good time. The only bad part about it is that I'll be away from my baybee for that long =( That makes me sad. I'll miss him soooooo much.
Speaking of Hawaii, I've been doing some research on the area around where I'm staying, and there's a STARBUCKS within about a mile. Thank GOD for Starbucks. The amazing part about Starbucks... I can find one no matter what city I'm in. I found 3 in New Orleans, several in San Francisco, and many more around the country. It's like I have radar in my head that automatically looks for Starbucks'. Wow, I'm so addicted... that's pretty bad. Anyway.
Time for this "mutha of an update" to be ended because now, girls and boys, it's time for Mommy & Erin to go do the things we do best... get Starbucks and go SHOPPING. =) Leave me love!!! |

| Holy moly, it's an update. |
[Jan. 12th, 2005|04:45 pm] |
Yeah I updated this thing like... what? 8 weeks ago? Ouch. Anyway, I apologize for the lack of an update lately. Since LJ is blocked on the school computers, I don't have a choice but to update from home, which never happens. I haven't had the time nor the desire to get on the computer much anymore... really, it's a good thing, because I'm doing other things besides sit on my ass in front of a monitor all day (no offense to those of you who do). Plus, when I'm out, I'm out with Ian, and he makes me the happiest I've ever been =).
Things are going really well lately. Finals are over for me, I got the 3rd highest grade on my government final, and I'm almost positive I did really well on my short story & accounting finals. Tomorrow I'll only be in school from 7:20-9:30, and that's only because I have a lab assistant class that I have too many absences in, haha. Going to work after that...uhh... 4 DAY WEEKEND!!! Not sure what I'm doing on Friday... Saturday Ian and I are going fishing, then Sunday we're going to the Wild Animal Park (my grandmother gave us free tickets, hehe). Monday I'm either going to work or hanging out with Becky for a Girls Day. So it should be a fun weekend.
In other news... I don't really have other news, other than the fact that I am SOOOOOOOO happy because my boyfriend is the best EVER, and I love him more than anything.
PS: KELLY!!! We rock, and we're lucky bitches =D haha love ya kiddo. |

So life is good right now. Ian is great, school is goin alright, I'm working for my mom off & on... good times for sure. But I'll have to do this when I have more time... I gotta get ahold of Kelly so we can chill. More again when I have a break! |

Life is pretty sweet, just been hella tired lately. Been working for my mom (in a dental office) every few days, getting paid for it. Around January-February, I'll be putting packages together for the San Diego Gulls hockey team, their cheerleaders, and things for one of the games. I'll also be assisting around the office, so I'll be in there a lot. The best part? In exchange for working that much, I'll be getting a bleaching session (called Zoom, in-office treatment that hella whitens your teeth), and I'll be getting some veneers done (I broke one of my front teeth when I was a kid, and I need something that will look really nice after I get them bleached). So that's exciting!
Took a government test today. I really wish I was more prepared for it. Oh well, we'll see how it goes. I still have to put together a PowerPoint presentation on Bill Clinton for next week... that might be a little difficult because I don't have PowerPoint. But I think my mom's office has it, so I might just luck out.
Justin & Sarah are on their way over, so off I go! |

Been a while since a good update.
Friday: - Went downtown to the Haunted Hotel with Tracy, Dean, and Ella. Good times. Kinda scary. Totally worth it. - Went and saw the movie "Saw" in Rancho with above mentioned people + Tracy's boyfriend, Nathan. Ian stayed home. - Came home around 12:30am, screwed around, went to bed.
Saturday: - Jenn came over to chill, I love that girl, I haven't hung out with her in forever. - Ian came over with his friend Mike to pick up firewood before they went to the desert. - Jenn and I went to grab Becky, and we all went shopping. - Jenn headed home, I took Becky home, hung out there. - Went home, changed into my costume from last year (black wings & a halo with jeans and a fishnet shirt. Easy stuff). - Went to HALLOWEENER DODGEBALL! So fun, but the costumes were a little... disturbing. Man thongs everywhere. - Drove around with James, Tommie, Anthony, and Pat. - Home around 1am-ish.
Shit class is over gotta go. |

| | accomplished | ] | I'm updating in accounting again. Back to my old ways. I just took my work sheet test, easy stuff. I just couldn't remember how many balances I'm actually supposed to put at the bottom. Anyway. I think it's funny how I just did 3 tests for this class in the last 2 days, didn't really try, and I was just told I am the "Business Department Vaquero of the Month." Got a nifty little award thing. Not to sound conceited, but it doesn't surprise me. I think I have about a 101% in the class. But moving on.
Ian accidentally stayed the night last night. We were watching television in my room when I fell asleep. He shook me around 3am to ask what time it was... looked at my clock, told him it was about 3am and went back to sleep. It didn't quite click that it was 3am, and he was sleeping in my bed. At 5:40-ish this morning, he AGAIN woke me up to tell me, "Erin get up it's 5:40am." "Why? I don't have to get up until 6:20..." "Yeah, but I have to be at work in 20 minutes." So he got up, I sat there for a little bit, and in walks my mom to wake me up for school. She looked at us and said, "Oh I thought I was just getting Erin up this morning... I thought I heard you leave at about 3?" "Funny thing..." So we told her what happened and she laughed before asking him if he wanted breakfast. Mom is chill and it's not like anything was going on. I laughed but I don't know if he felt it was quite as funny as I did. I should call him and make sure he made it to work at a decent time. He can't be mad at me for falling asleep--- he could have stayed up. Plus, he snores. =)
Time to browse the internet and think about what a bad, bad person I am ;) |

| | hungry and tired | ] | This thing has been getting neglected due to the lack of free time that I have. I'm actually having to do real work in my accounting class lately (surprisingly enough). Accounting also happens to be where I am at the moment. Just finished two tests with more than enough time to spare.
I'm exhausted. I was up way too late last night. I should have come home from Ian's and gone straight to bed, but I'm not that smart. I'm paying for it today though. Today I get to go home, wait for groceries to be delivered, and make dinner. I love to cook but I just need to try out some new things. I was thinking about making some cookies or something today and taking them to Ian at work to cheer him up. He's been having some bad days. I spoil him...
I need a job. Not like I've been trying to get one in the slightest, but I still need one. Someone give me a job! (tee-hee)
Actually, I need a lot of things. I need a new sweater, and I want new glasses and new shoes. I'm bored with mine. I've been bored with a lot of things lately, hence the new drastic change in my haircolor. =) I like it, my friends like it, Ian likes it, Delton doesn't so I get to hear him give me crap everyday in 1st period now... but I told him I hate his hair too so we're even. Anyway.
Special <3 to Ryry--- Hope you didn't die in your sleep because that would be sad. Sorry about what happened but things will get better and will all work out for the best. |

| | Good/Full/Tired | ] | Long time no (real) update. Jeez... what has happened lately?
Got my hair done on Friday. I'm a redhead again! I love it.
We lost our homecoming game against Santana, but that was to be expected. Homecoming dance was last night. Justin had 4 dates! Justin went with me, Sarah, Marisa, and Becky. Lisa was at homecoming and was made his 5th date. It was so cool. We danced all night to almost every song... we had sooo much fun. I actually felt really pretty. Everyone told me I looked beautiful, but having someone tell you that you look nice and actually feeling like you look nice are two different things (it makes sense).
Been hanging out with Ian a lot lately, things are good. Just waitin on some status but that's alright, we'll see what happens. We went to dinner tonight with my family... that was interesting. Poor guy didn't know what he was getting himself into! But it's alright, he passed the hardest part, and we all had fun.
School is good, family is pretty good, life in general is good =) Things are good! I'm enjoying life. You only get one, right?
As for now, I'm going to use this time in my life to get some sleep. |

| | content | ] | 10 Years Ago, I... 1. Was extremely carefree. 2. Got along with my family. 3. Enjoyed life indefinitely. 4. Watched cartoons at every opportunity. 5. Was very naive.
5 Years Ago, I... 1. Was starting to understand a little more about myself.. 2. ...and people. 3. Met some of my best friends. 4. Had a plan for my life. 5. Had every intention of following through with that plan.
3 Years Ago, I... 1. Kicked ass in school. 2. Was involved with someone completely obsessive and crazy. 3. Began to fight with my brother a lot. 4. Dropped previous plan and adopted a new one. 5. Met my best friend in the world.
1 Year Ago, I... 1. Started to do terribly in some classes. 2. Dropped plan #2 and didn't pick up a new one. 3. Decided to go to Grossmont after graduation. 4. Realized that I've made some shitty decisions in life. 5. Also realized I've made some really good decisions.
So far this year, I've... 1. Realized how much my real friends care about me... 2. ...and how many people are assholes for faking it. 3. Had one of the best/worst birthdays ever. 4. Wrecked my car. 5. Actually had a situation that I didn't runaway from, only to have it turn out badly because someone else did.
Yesterday, I... 1. Had a great day at school. 2. Went to lunch with Taryn. 3. Had a nice afternoon with the house to myself blasting music. 4. Talked to some good friends. 5. Looked through old photographs and relived old memories that put a smile on my face.
Today, I... 1. Woke up late (6:45, oops). 2. Went to school and had a good day. 3. Sent an asston of text messages. 4. Found out I have one of the top 3 grades in my government class, if not the highest. 5. Took an insanely long nap.
Tomorrow, I will... 1. Go to school. 2. Go to Sombreros with Justin & Marisa. 3. Study my ass off for a government exam. 4. Take my Nikon with me to have Gina help me with some stuff. 5. Wish it was Friday already. |

| | happy | ] | First off, I was "on restriction" (haha Taryn). Oh the ways to shoot someone down. Friday night I was bored, so I called Marisa to have her come over. Went and picked her up, had dinner, and chilled. About midnight Taryn said she was bored, so I told her to come over too. Taryn... "What was THAT?!" tee-hee. We watched "Taking Lives"... that Angelina Jolie movie. Good stuff, kinda freaky. They left Saturday afternoon. Becky showed up a little after I got out of the shower... headed to Starbucks, as always. Jeremy was supposed to come over so I could make him dinner (dunno how he talked me into that one), but he flaked and went to Oktoberfest with his brother. His loss! I made carne asada. Becky left shortly after dinner-- her parents called and are in a crappy mood because of the remodeling. Josh came over about 8-ish to chill with my brother. Dean, Ella, Josh and I went to the movies and saw Ladder 49 that night. Extremely touching movie... I really liked it. Came home, went on my computer, went to bed.
Sunday was one of the most... interesting days of my life to date.
I was very tired Saturday night so I planned on sleeping all day Sunday. Didn't quite work out that way.
At 11:30am-ish, I was woken up by two guys wearing masks with voiceboxes pounding on my door and literally ripping me out of bed, telling me I'm going with them. They told me I had 30 seconds to get dressed, and if I wasn't done they would bust in. I freaked out. I didn't recognize them at all, and didn't know if anyone else was home and knew what was going on. So I just did what they told me... got dressed, grabbed my cell phone and stuffed it in my pocket. I opened my door and they pushed me down the hallway. I grabbed my purse (which had my sunglasses in it, go me), and as we were leaving saw my mom and everyone in the living room/kitchen waving bye and laughing at me. Got outside, and there was a topless Jeep sitting in front of my house with ANOTHER masked guy in it. I had never seen that car in my life. They put me in the back and put a beanie over my eyes. I kept peeking, and they kept yelling at me. We got some funny looks from people on the freeway. I managed to send a text to Becky that said, "I got kidnapped." She texted me back saying, "OMG are you ok? Do you need me to call someone?!" (*She was the mastermind behind it all.*)
Ended up down at South Mission, and when they let me take the mask off, I saw Monica, Basia, Becky, Justin, and Taryn sitting at a table. Josh, Tracy, and Sarah showed up later. Bastards. Got caked, and got chocolate cupcake in my ear you assholes. ;) Just kidding I love you guys. Hung out there and left at 2:30-ish. Went back to Becky's, ran some plans past her parents, and went to my house so I could change and clean up. Becky & I went and saw "Cellular," which ironically is a movie about kidnapping. After the movie the two of us went to dinner at Mimi's and headed home. Awesome day =) Thank you guys!!!
All in all, a great weekend. Kind of glad they didn't go through with the original plan, which was to have their friend, who is a POLICE OFFICER come to my house and ARREST ME for something that had to do with my accident. I don't know what I would have done... probably thrown up and cried my eyes out, then killed someone after I found out it was all a prank.
I'll admit it... I got punk'd.
Accounting is almost over so that's it for now. |

| | sigh. | ] | The day is winding down, and the same thoughts fill my head. I'm a little more down than yesterday but I just keep hoping that things will get better and start looking up. I'm starting to do better in school because I'm just trying so hard to focus on my work instead of what's bothering me. Just trying to tune things out I suppose. As long as I have other things to concentrate on, life won't get the best of me. Hopefully it hasn't already...
Starting to feel a little better, slowly but surely. Just have a headache, but that could be from any number of things. Oh well. That's why I have migraine meds stashed away in my bag. =)
Sitting in Gina's right now-- she doesn't have anything for me to do. And I don't feel like going to Feser's to grade more papers. Blegh.
Got a 50/50 on my accounting test, and the highest grade in the class on my government quiz. I don't see how people can fail those classes... it's slightly more difficult than, say... masturbation.
Anyway...
I'm cookin dinner tonight. Any ideas? I'm diggin on chicken of some sort. We'll see.
And I'm off again, to the darkroom! |
