Discovered that I hadn't actually lost my chocolate. That made me feel good. Annoyed because a friend gave me her cold yesterday, so I can only hear out of one ear, and the other one is constantly popping, and it's very, very distracting. Grr.

Was supposed to meet friends at their school today sometime around 3:30-4:30, to edit the trailer for my film. Get there at 4, search all over the building, they're not there. Call one of them at home, her mother thinks she's at school. walk all over downtown looking for them, don't find them. finally go home--or, try to anyway--get on the bus but its last stop isn't as far as it's supposed to go, so i get off to walk the rest of the way. wearing awful shoes and have terrible blisters already so i take off my shoes and keep walking. finally another bus comes when i'm halfway home so i run to catch it and i make it but i don't have my shoes on yeesh. so annoyed. still dont' know where friends are.

Ouch. Hope you're not burned too badly, BoP. .. *concerned look*

Great, due to walking around in awful shoes, I now have a blister the size of a penny on my heel--it's all raw and awful looking and it really hurts. I think all of the skin was scraped away

I now know to wear better shoes when I go walking around downtown.

Still don't know what happened to my friends

Have to clean up basement tomorrow, which means picking up all my brother's junk. ARR. I hate having to pick up his toys. Honestly

[EDIT-Deleted vent. Think scared people]

BoP! I hope you aren't seriously hurt! My friend burnt her arm badly and when the blister exploded (pus everywhere, not pleasent at all) it got infected. So please, don't let it do that.

EG, I hope your feet are ok, and that you find your friends sometime. Try behind the fridge.

Hanza - Hope you haven't broken your ankle. I used to trampoline and bit right through my tongue once. That hurt like hell.

Hopefully you will all be okay soon.

*sigh* If it isn't bad enough that I have to give up my free week for the last days of my practical because that stupid school of mine doesn't have those lessonrosters ready ( school starts again monday BTW and I still don't have my roster) and I don't know when I would have a free day to take those last days so I had to take them now, completely ruining my one free week, and of course my last day had to be ruined as the guy with who I had to go inspect the sites started making advances!

I'm in an aweful, AWEFUL mood today!

Ouch!! I trampoline, the worst things that ever happened to me was in a sequence getting my toe stuc in one of the holes, kept jumping, did a front drop bending it forwards, then a back drop bending it backwards, then I fell over, then had to cut the trampoline up to get my toe out. The doctor wasn't sure weather to amputate it or not. It dosn't sound serious but you didn't see my toe!!

The other time I just landed on my head durin a somersault.

Luckily it wasn't broken and seems to be nearly better now.
Once in trampolining i was getting off and had one leg dangling off the side and the other still on the trampoline edge. Suddenly i just toppled off. flat onto my side. Everyone was laughing at me and thought it was hilarious. But it hurt like hell.

Also before I scared everyone by jarring my neck. I was just trying to to front to seat and ended up doing front to back. This is very painful on our trampoline as its really old and doesn't have a lot of bounce. So I had to lay on the trampoline for 10mins. they thought i had broken it. But i managed to have a lucky escape. Oh well.

Oh and you have bitten through your tongue I bit through my lip when skiing. I still have the scar.

Wow. 100 pages.

Sorry about that, EG...I don't really know what happened. We went over to Margo's at about four...but I was in the main hall then, and I didn't see you. Oh well.

Augh stupid stupid...REALLY want to be editing for the film, but we can only edit on one computer, and that is now the school computer, but it's being dumb and freezing or whatnot...hope is better soon...augh.

Also cannot film scene tomorrow as many people are going away on Igloo trips, religious confys and many other things. (Since when have I begun speaking like Secret Diaries?)

On bright side, out from school at 12:30 tomorrow. Many things to be done, incl. editing, running around downtown, and yelling things and suspisinable people. V. good.

-Hurricane...
tano

p.s. ah yes. this was a while ago, but did I ever say that I now have a hurricane named after me? Or at least of my name? And it was a mag. 5, which is v. strong. FEAR ME!

Guess who gets to write an epic for English class. Well, at least it's only an episode from an epic; my English teacher really doesn't want to read 500 page long epics from 100 students! Oy...I am never doing this again. I am never trying to write something that takes place in the 21st century using a style of English that's more appropriate to Shakespeare's time...gaaaaah. Is this thread going to be closed for length, or can it remain open? *begs for the continued existence of the Venting Thread*

ARR!
Didn't have time to do any editing today--couldn't even load all of the stuff onto the computer, so now I don't get to edit my trailer

And then people go away so we can't film scene tomorrow. Since i'm leaving on Sunday and I won't be back til March I dunno if I'll get to be in it after all and that was the one I was really looking forward to.

And we went out for dinner tonight which was nice but by the time we got back and I got my limpet-brother to finally let me go after telling him a bedtime story (which he had to keep interrupting because he thought something I said was stupid) it was too late to call my friend so I dunno if I'll be able to see my friends tomorrow which is almost my last chance besides Saturday to see them until march at the earliest, and I can't call in the morning so I guess I'll just have to show up at school tomorrow at 12:30 and pray I find them, which is of course VERY impossible, especially since they dont' have classes tomorrow. . .'cause it's my last chance to run around downtown while it's dark for a very long time! but I dunno if my mum will let me go because supposedly I have tons of stuff to do like packing and I dont' want to pack because that means i'm going back to school on sunday and i don't want to go back to school because i'm going to miss my friends and there's way too much stuff to deal with in terms of switching classes and all (because there is no way i'm taking a genetics class at 8am) and i don't want to write tons of papers and although i love learning and all i'm far too lazy to actually do the work and it makes me wonder what i'm doing in college anyway and i don't feel like i have that many friends there and it can be fun but i always feel like a sort of outsider among my roommates and other people in our hall and then i tend to do incredibly stupid things like shut myself up in my room but of course that only makes in worse. i won't have enough time to work on my story, and i won't be able to help my friends with the film which was really fun and i'll miss that and i won't get to do the rest of the filming with them and i wont' be able to work on any film stuff for the whole semester, really. and i have to find a job which isn't easy for me 'cause i'm way too shy. and i think i'm depressed. i'm going to go cry.

wow. i just wrote a lot. i think i needed that...sorry...i'm just in one of those-gah. *sigh*

Please don't cry EG! I understand completely, and will talk about it with you over email. Remember, Twin is here! *pats EG* At least you've vented it now. *sigh* *takes EG away for councelling*

I'll vent shortly now, since i have people to deal with in a minute.

I hate other drivers, and i hate the messed up nature of the world.

I can not agree more, when I read the Hobbit by myself, I loved it, and read it 3 times over agian within the same year, and then we had to read it with the class and I hated it, same with The Fellowship of the Ring, but that was a "group book" and that was ruend b/c we had to do half a million worksheets on it.

I hate how it is snowing, and I wan't to go play in it, but it is to cold and I don't want to freeze, so I'm staying in side. Why do I have to ceer about how cold I am?
