I’d marry each and every one of you!

  By Uncategorized

This past weekend, we were discussing work and school and life in general, and my dad said, “Aren’t you used to it?” I said, “I guess.” [Which is my reply to just about anything lately.] But you know, you never really get used to people shitting on you when you’ve done nothing to deserve it. And I know that’s typical; saying “I did nothing to deserve it”. But at least when I’ve done something to deserve it, I’m understanding of the reactions I get. What… Continue reading

"Maybe they see you as ‘too perfect’."

  By Uncategorized

Well, everything I’ve set out to achieve has basically backfired. Apparently taking on a full course load plus a part time job plus achieving tremendous grades all while heading a student organization is a little too much for some HR people. “You did great! You did really great! And I’m sure you’ll succeed in whatever you do, somewhere else!” So, will you tell me again, what the point was, trying so hard and giving myself anxiety attacks for two years so that I’d get a… Continue reading

…and I did it all through sheer avoidance!

I never want to be a leader. Especially not after (almost finishing) writing the most redundant paper I’ve written in a long while. End my life! Cell phone-MSN sucks. My alter ego is Turkey Sub. Kristin’s is Chunky Soup. We get along all right. We need someone to be 2% Milk. I’m sick of having the physical insides of a 55 year old man. (I don’t even think 55 year old women get the same kind of stomach problems and heartburn as I do.) I… Continue reading

Sometimes, things are funny. And sometimes, they are not. Maybe I’m just getting really old, but when what you’re mocking happens to be a giant part of someone’s life (with the exception of Scientology or Mormonism, because I have to lend myself to hypocrisy in one way or another), it’s time to fuck off. I don’t know. Maybe I’m just taking these ‘jokes’ too seriously, but I’d like to think that if one day I get engaged, or get a job across the planet, or… Continue reading

Taking a break from the 3 projects I have on the go to say…

  By Uncategorized

Hey, look! I’m famous on a website that no one knows of yet! A month ago, I received an email telling me I’d been shortlisted, and today my photo (which I never submitted, but which was found on my Flickr) was picked to represent Niagara Falls. Weird! I got some amazing photos this weekend, including some amazing pictures of some deer about a kilometer from the highway I was on. My zoom is amazing!!! I’ll upload them one day when I get some time again.… Continue reading

New Camera, Same Fotos

  By Uncategorized

Just prior to work and far prior to rum, I purchased the Canon S5 IS camera that I had wanted for so long. For a while, I was set on instead getting a DSLR, but I figure by the time I’m any good at one of those, there will be better quality ones out there. For now, I’ll stick to a high-end point and shoot that’s half the price. Tomorrow, I speak. I speak for ten minutes in front of a class, and I include… Continue reading

My cute little niece came along with my parents to visit me today. They all got me out of my “can’t do my assignment” blues. Macy’s facial expressions as she watches the fish dart around in the aquarium in my living room is priceless. How are my days being spent lately? Looking for furniture and cars on Kijiji, writing resumes, sleeping little, working, and spending my days at school scratching my head wondering if any of this is actually real to any degree. And yes,… Continue reading

The Ghoul’s Ghouls Only Come Out at Night

  By Uncategorized

Come on, Deb. Why do you do this to me? To yourself?? You don’t know me. Is it absolutely necessary that you ask me if I’m okay lately? Lately?? What are you comparing it to? The me you don’t know any other time of the year? The reason I sound abrupt and short with you is because you’re you. And that’s the same reason your roommates don’t like you much; because you’re you, not because you’re a girl and you’re white, as you’ve once claimed… Continue reading
