Last night I went out with some friends. It was my guy friend's little sister's birthday, so it was pretty much just three of us hanging out with a bunch of younger kids that I had never met. It started off really good; I was having a really fun time and I was happy. Then, all of a sudden, my ex (who now lives with my sister... weird) approaches. I stayed friends with him, so it was still okay....

I feel ambushed. My roommates just came into my room together and... I want to say that they ganged up on me. They're closer to one another than I am to either anymore. We used to all be really close, but I am easily frustrated and so instead of dealing with my issues I have stayed in my room and buried myself in school work and other distracting, mind-numbing things. My mom should be so...

Spoilers follow. You've been warned.Okay, so recently I posted a journal because I fell in love with this show. The characters, the plot lines, the honesty and the accuracy put into it... it's just so beautiful. I've recently started working on a Tate story, and I realized something.Tate mentions in one episode, when he's saying grace, that his father left when he was six.Now, that was before Tate...

This journal will have spoilers, so if you plan to watch the show or aren't finished with it yet, don't continue reading.So I started watching this online a few days ago, because I've heard good things and I've had a wicked crush on Evan Peters for a few years now. I was completely floored by his performance as Tate. He made this show. He made insanity look sexy.Don't get me wrong, he wasn't the...

I used to absolutely adore The OC. When it first started, I boycotted it. Much like I do most everything else that my sister loves. When she bought the first season on DVD, she forced me to watch it. I fell in love.Cohen was pretty much my wet dream in high school. I've always been a sucker for geeks.*Sigh* Adam Brody, where did you go?I remember watching new episodes every Thursday night after...

So I'm twenty-one years old now. I've been living on my own for three years with no help from my parents. I swore to myself that I would never go back. Apparently I've lied to myself.I've been sharing a room with my older sister for the past couple of months. This would normally be the point where I recount some zany story, but to tell the truth, it was a pretty mellow time. Then she dropped the...

As I've mentioned in previous journals, my best friend's mom has been fighting brain cancer for about six years now. I woke up to a phone call this morning from the aforementioned best friend. He started off so casual, asking how I was and exchanging pleasantries. And then he started to cry. He doesn't ever cry, you guys. He bottles things up even worse than I do. I have spoken to him every single...

When I was in high school, my best friend's mom developed a brain tumor. It was cancerous, and it was inoperable. She went through chemo, and for a few years everything was good.Last summer, I heard that she was back in the hospital. I drove the two hours back home to go and visit her, but she was falling asleep while I was there so I didn't stay long. I cried the whole way back to the city,...

I'm procrastinating, as usual. I have already written three term papers and I just want a break before I start the fourth one tomorrow. So sue me.Anyways, you know how certain memories have a soundtrack? Like, when you were doing whatever thing you're thinking of, there was a certain song playing and now your brain forever associates that activity with that song? I really hope someone understands...

I went to the midnight premiere of Paranormal Activity 3 last night. I've gone to see all of them in the theatre, because I'm a huge horror movie buff and they always come out right around my birthday. This year I couldn't wait the 4 days until my actual birthday.Most of the scary parts in the trailer aren't even in the film. But what is in there... personally I think that this one was the most...

This show was my absolute favourite when it was on TV. I own all the seasons on DVD, and it's just... amazing. It was one of those shows that my brother and I watched religiously, which is half of the reason that I loved it so much. I still make references to it in daily life, even though no one gets my jokes anymore when they deal with hook hands and never nudes.But today Jason Bateman confirmed...

It's no secret that I love the Foo Fighters. But this just made them even better to me.http://perezhilton.com/2011-09-20-foo-fighters-prank-westboro-baptist-church-because-theyre-awesomeI mean, seriously? Those people are still picketing at whatever social events that they think are associated with homosexuality? Is this not 2011? That 14 year old boy associated with the It Gets Better project...

I'm back in university again, and I've started off with a bang. As always, I went out with my friends after my first day and got ridiculously drunk. My best friends all go to a different school than I do, because I don't like crowds so I chose a smaller campus. I had classes on Tuesday, and they all started yesterday. So, since we all like to get out of hand on our first days, we made plans to...

Today we had a meeting at work to announce the employee of the month. It's pretty much the only time of the month when all of the staff is together at once (we have roughly 70 people working there). I figured that I was going to have an awkward time finding a place to sit because of last night. Here was the scene:Exterior. Daytime.There is a bar patio, and there are only three people there. It's...

This has been bugging me for the better part of the weekend. If anyone has an answer, I would love to hear it.If it's called Alcoholics Anonymous, why do they stand up and say their names? That just doesn't sound anonymous to me.Yeah, I know, it's random. It was random at the time when it popped into my head, too. I was on my way to Easter dinner in a vehicle full of family, and I was in the...

Wise words, Gerard Way, wise words.I went to the My Chem show this past Tuesday. Way back in the day when I was young and knee-deep in corrupting my closest friends, they were my first concert. They haven't played here in five years, so I was pumped. I bought my friend a ticket for Christmas, since she couldn't make it last time.Anyways, it was awesome. It was kind of a weird experience for me,...

I was on my way home today, rocking out to the new Sum 41 album (which is super good, by the way), and when I walked in my house my iPod stopped playing in the middle of a song. Confused, I pulled it out of my pocket just in time to see this:I understand that I have had this iPod for a long time and it has served me faithfully, but this was still a very upsetting message to see when I was hoping...

My life, to outsiders, always seems interesting. This is because I am unfit to be around people. I cause chaos. And there are a few people who bring out the worst in me, but I love them so I continuously put the world in danger by hanging out with them. But then something happens that reminds me that I need to learn to be... I don't know. Something else. Calm? Maybe...I met this guy through a...

Today was my first day back in university for my winter semester. Well, it was supposed to be my first day. I normally have a bus transfer on my way to school, but today it was incredibly nice out (for an Alberta winter) so I decided to walk the last eight blocks instead of waiting ten minutes for my next bus.I see now that this is where I went wrong.I was walking along on my merry way, thinking...

I don't often join bandwagons, but I feel like I should join in on this one. It seems like fun.I'll smile for who I used to be. (I'm a natural blonde?!?)And for the person that I am now.I'll smile for the people that have always been there.And for the ones who are there now.I'll smile for my family (mainly my nephew).I'll smile for the things I used to love.I'll smile for my current...
