5:36 pm - FYI meme
|
You know how sometimes people on your friends list post about stuff going on in their life, and all of a sudden you think "Wait a minute? Since when were they working THERE? Since when were they dating HIM/HER? Since when???" And then you wonder how you could have missed all that seemingly pretty standard information, but somehow you feel too ashamed to ask for clarification because it seems like info you should already know? It happens to all of us sometimes.
If you feel so inclined, please copy the topics below, erase my answers and put yours in their place, and then post it in your journal! Please elaborate on the questions that would benefit from elaboration.

6:41 am - WTF?!
|
What the Helll is up with Livejournals Writer's Blocks lately... why the hell are they alll focused on romantic relationships ... it's annoying ... extremly annoying ... to Hell with Romantic relationships! I don't give a damn about them ... RAWR.
On a completely unrelated note ... Hello ... I know I said I was going to update more, but I haven't had much to update on.
I have a Gecko now ... his name is Sheldon, and he is cute.
Also, school is kicking my sorry ass right now, and my stress levels are reaching an all-time high ... The semester is seriously not long enough ... X__X ... so much to do and learn in such a short period of time... not cool at all.
It doesn't help that I have been playing a lot of WoW lately ... gotta stop getting distracted, but it's so easy ... playing WoW is a hell of a lot more interesting than reading some boring ass textbook with a bunch of dates and data that is difficult to remember ...
I kind of wish I could just disappear from everythings for a little bit right now ... too bad I haven't got any money to do so ... oh well.
Anyway, that's it for my boring life story ... hope everyone else is doing alright.

10:23 pm - Annoying ...
|
I just want to say that I really hate how much emphasis People in this day and age put on looks and sex... It pisses me off to no end ... Basically, I have come to the conclusion that I shall never have sex with anyone, because I am not sexual appealing ... sex is not important to me, however, it's just the idea that because I am not attractive by todays standards, I have very little cahnce of even attracting a partner or any sort ... because it seems that the only thing that makes a relationship worth while is the sex, and seeing as I am not attractive enough for that, I'm not worth anyone's time ... I'm sorry I didn't win the goddamn genetic lottery ... I'm not feeling sorry for myself, just being pissed off at society ...
I have accepted the fact that I will end up being a crazy old cat lady that lives all by herself.
God, I hate the media, and society today ... it all just fucks with people's heads, and makes them feel shitty about themselves... I cannot stand when I hear a 120 pound girl start complaining that she is too fat ... especially when I have like 50 pounds on her ... if she's fat, than I probably have a goddamn moon or two orbiting around me... Fat Girls, Chubby Girls, Thin Girls, skinny girls... none of them should feel ugly just because the goddamn media tell them they are.
personally, I'm tired of feeling ugly all the time, but because of what media and the society has plugged into my brain, everytime I turn around I find something wrong with myself, and then feel unworthy of anyone ... that's just not right, and I know that, but I can't help it... and I know I'm not the only one ... this all applies to males too ... everyone should have the chance to feel beautiful ... but it's just so hard these days ... *sighs*
Ah, the things that set me off ... sitting in the mall today, waiting for the bus, as I watched people walk by, and being surrounded by retarded advertisements for Fashion and all that BS ... it got me thinking ... not that this hasn't been on my mind lately.
I am just so tired of feel depressed, and ugly, and unworthy of anyone... and yet there is nothing out there right now, proving to me that I am wrong to think that way ...
anyway... now that I have gotten that out of my system for now ... all I have to report otherwise, is that I got my fall gardening started ... I'm getting my garden ready so that come next spring it will be full of lovely flowers, and all bright and cheerful... Gardens, and flowers, and nature, in general, make me happy ... I think we need more of that in this world ... true, natural beauty ... nothing is more stunning and gorgeous to me than the wonders of nature itself. If I could live in a never ending garden for the rest of my life, I would be so happy!
Anyway... yes... That is all ...

9:13 am - stuff...
|
So, I have decided that I am going to try and continue keeping up with my LiveJournal, seeing as I have been neglecting it horrinble up until recently ... However, for those who still pay attention to my journal updates, don't expect to see updates everyday... however, as I said, I will try to update a little more frequently.
It seems a lot of people have gone over to Facebook, and have not tried to venture back here ... I use Facebook myself, but I find that it's no good for Blogging, whereas, here on LJ, you can rant away, or atleast type up some things in more detail... it's also easier to share Writing like stories and stuff like that on here. So really, what I am saying is, that it's perfectly easy to use both LJ and Facebook at the same time!
Anyway ... yeah, that is all I've got for today. Gotta head to work soon... not looking forward to it, but that's nothing new. I seriously need to find a better job soon X.x ... easier said than done though *sighs* ... Ah well!
Take care all!! <3

2:39 pm - OMG! I feel like a Dolt! XD

I just realized now that one of the people on my friendlist, is on my friendlist XD... Wolfie!! I am sorry, I totally didn't clue in that I had you on my friendlist because your LJ username is different than the username you use on dA and elsewhere!!!
Wow... I am so dense sometimes... I swear ... I mean, just totally clueless ... *is an Epic Failure at life for being so unobservant* I seriously feel like such a dunce now LOL
Anyway ... ehem ... that being said ... yes ... First week back to school was not bad ... fairly busy, and already ploughing tons of information into my poor, stupid little brain.
Not looking forward to working tomorrow ... it'll probably suck, as it always does ... X.x ... no surprises there ...
So yeah ... now that I feel like a total fool, and had to share that with you guys, that is all... XD;;;
I hope everyone is doing well!
~Raven
P.S. My Wolfie!! I am sorry for not realizing that was you!! You know I luffles you!!!! I'm just dumb sometimes XD;;

hmm... I would let them suffer for a bit, maybe wait to see if someone else points it out, and if not, then I would tell them! Because I'm not entirely malicious or unkind... even if someone is annoying to me.

9:46 pm - er... weird
|
somebody whom I do not know posted a comment on a Journal entry that I posted meme's on back in 2006 ... O.o ... I have knwo idea who that person is, or why he left a comment that consisted of " ..... :) "
That was just random ... and I am worried that it may be some sort of virus thinger ... ah well ... maybe I'm just being paranoid, but seriously, Random strangers don't normally leave any comments on my journal ...
In other news, school starts on Tuesday!! I can't wait! But I also feel a bit intimidated because I know it's going to be a huge work load for me this semester X.x
Also, my Nana just recently had a masectomy. They removed some lumps from her breast and removed her lymphnoids ... and they found Cancer in them ... so that's concerning, but hopefully Nana will fight the Cancer and pull through and live for a couple more decades atleast ... she's the only living grandparent I have now U.U
Other news consists of ... well... I reached level 80 with my Tauren Hunter on WoW ... and I haven't worked in a week!! Took some time off, but it's back to work next weekend.
Also, Roger is doing a lot better since his ordeal with the stick in the eye.
Hmm...what else... oh yes, totally lost interest in Kent ... I just pretty much gave up on him, because after seeing through my blinding admiration for him before, I have come to the conclusion that nothing will ever come from that sistuation, and that I could probably do much better if I tried. I mean, 35 years old, single, and working at Tim Hortons? I dunno if that's such a good sign. However, he is still my friend, even though we barely talk to each other anymore. I've moved on ...
Anyway, that is pretty much all I have to say.
I hope everyone is doing well.
Cheers!

9:30 pm - Life Update ...
|
okay, so... this summer has not been the most pleasent. I can't wait for it to end... seriously.
I recently found out that my Nana (my only living grandparent now btw) has Breast Cancer, so that was stressful. However the other day she went in for an operation to get the lump in her breast removed. That resulted in her loosing her breast, but hopefully, they caught the cancer before it spread.
I also found out that I have to get my wisdom teeth removed, but my dental is all wonky right now, so it be awhile before I can get anything done.
Other than that things haven't been terribly exciting. Just been working mostly, and playing World of Warcraft!
I am looking forward to going back to school, which starts on the 8th of September. I'm taking 5 classes this semester, all Anthropology classes. It should be pretty interesting.
So yeah ... that's my recent news. Not too exciting, but meh.
That is all.

10:57 pm - ... An Update once again, mostly just to vent and whine about some stuff
|
Okay, so ... finally things are cooling down a bit since last week, when we had that unbearable heat wave ... I cannot stand the heat at all ... I am not a fan of summer because of how hot it can get. Give me Spring or Fall anytime!! Winter is just a little too dull and cold for me, but it still beats out summer. I mean, Early Summer is not bad... like June or the beginning of July, but after about Mid-July, it just sucks until about mid-September.
Work is crappier than ever. I seriously wish it was easier to find a job right now, because I really want to quit ... I just can't stand it anymore. I am so tired of cleaning up after filthy customers and getting harped on by my boss to do extra cleaning projects!! I don't have enough time to do what I normally have to get done, let alone extra crap! And also, everything require very little movement. Maybe if I had an opportunity to actually move around more, and stretch my legs, it wouldn't be so bad... but my feet and knees get so sore from the lack of real movement. That's one thing that was a plus at Tigh-Na-Mara... it required a lot more moving around.
I'm also irritated by the fact that I have gained weight since I quit working at Tigh-Na-Mara. Atleast while I was working there I wasn't surrounded by donuts, danishes, Muffins and many of varieties of extremely fattening foods... and I wasn't practically always standing in one spot either.
Which brings me to my next complaint... I am so tired of feeling ugly all of the time!! The reason for this is that, well, the people whom I would like to have thinking I am attractive, don't ... argh!! Stupid modern day society and media putting this kind of pressure on people like myself!! I freaking hate it!!
Which brings me to the next thing... People have been really pissing me off lately... I just hate how so many people are so egotistical, and full of themselves... and they don't give a damn about anyone else and they don't give a damn about our planet and the wildlife we share it with... all they freaking care about is their own comfort! I admit, I am like this as well... but I really don't think I'm nearly as bad as half the people I know. It just pisses me off so much.
I really wish I just didn't have to witness this, or be a part of it ... Gah! I hate being a Human Being!! We are so full of fail as a species!! Even if we supposedly have the highest intelligence of all Animals... that being said, We maybe be technically intelligent, but we certainly do not use our so called big brains to make things better in the world, unless it directly effects ourselves.
I have had an extremely boring day today, so it's put in a bad mood because I have had too much time to dwell and think on things today X.x
That is all.

Collecting stuffed animals ... I just can't resist them! They're so cute and soft (especially with teh kinds of materials some are made with these days), and when you're feeling down, it's nice to have something like that to hug, not to mention they line my bed, which is against a wall, so when I roll over, I don't smack into the wall XD
There are many thing I sould have grown out of by now, but really ... even though I am 25 years old, I am in no rush to grow up! As being grown up is rather boring and droll in my opinion.

10:52 pm - An actual journal entry? No way!!
|
Yes... I have decided to grace you all with my unwanted presence again ...
I have to say, I really haven't had anything super exciting happen to me recently. My life is rather boring really. I went to Anime Evolution, and it was less than exciting ... things just didn't go well for it. That's all ... I didn't Cosplay or anything, which kind of bummed me out. Next year I think I'll go by myself, because I don't think there are many people who'd be willing to join me next year. Seems to me that everyone who I know that liked anime and manga, don't like it anymore ... so yeah ... but hey, if you are still interested, and want to go to Anime Evolution next year... let me know ... cuz I'd be more than willing to let people stay with me in my hotel room.
Anyway, yeah, aside from that, I have been working a lot, and doing pretty much nothing else in my free time. Saw a few movies and watched the fireworks on Canada Day, but that's about it ...
I've really had it with work ... I don't even really like most of my co-workers or anything about working right now ... yes, I have even lost interest in Kent... he's just been pissing me off lately ... -___- ... I have no feelings for anyone right now ... it's too much of a pain in the ass ...
Anyway... that is really all that's new and happening ... it's not very exciting, is it?
I need a proper vacation ...
That is all.
~Raven
P.S. I hope that everyone is well!

Recently, I have been recommending a group called Delerium. They have very nice music... it's like soft electronica ... and they always have new and interesting singers performing with them! It's really great ... beautiful, and sometimes moving lyrics as well!
some song rec's:
Self-Saboteur
Inner Sanctum
Heaven's Earth
You and I
Fleeting Instant
Euphoria
Wisdom
Silence ft. Sarah McLachlan
Aria ft. Mediaeval Baebes
Those are just a very few of their songs!

My favourite thing to do ... is absolutely nothing .... I dislike hot weather and prefer to stay inside where it's nice and cool.
Summer is probably my least favourite season ... reason I don't like it ... Heat, Skanks barely wearing any clothing, bugs, tourists, Working more, no school, being forced to wear shorts and a t-shit cuz it's too damn hot, and lack of rain
Spring and Fall are the best seasons!
