Do I have a reason? Yes, I do ('Cuz I usually don't). Slept over at Crystal's house saturday night. hehe. We watched two movies: American Dreamz (which sucks btw) and It Had to Be You (which is really cute). Well, her cousin had some friends over and they were playing xbox for a while, so we didn't actually start the first movie until about midnight. So, we went to bed at about 4 am or somewhere around there. I probably didn't fall asleep until 5, soyeah. Tired???? I could've, should've, would've gone to bed earlier last night to compensate, but I wanted to watch V for Vendetta, which I have to finish tonight, cuz my parents kicked me off the computer. Bleh... I'm so productive.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;What do you do when you know that someone you care about is in danger or falling???? I mean, it's hard to just be Oprah or Dr. Phil and have all the right answers for all the questions and comments you feel you need to respond to. I find myself drawing big blanks a lot. I'm usually pretty good at sounding "philosophical" and giving advie, but either it's the situation that I am&amp;nbsp;losing myself in or&amp;nbsp;I'm just getting stupider. Most likely getting stupider. It makes my head hurt. Anyway, I'll probably have more to say later.&lt;/P&gt;</description><comments>http://short-by-nature.xanga.com/545139121/item/#firstcomment</comments></item><item><title>Monday, October 23, 2006</title><link>http://short-by-nature.xanga.com/540578081/item/</link><guid>http://short-by-nature.xanga.com/540578081/item/</guid><pubDate>Mon, 23 Oct 2006 15:47:56 GMT</pubDate><description>Can I cry??? I am sooo fricking tired. Friday and Saturday I was at the Pathfinder leadership convention, and Senzile was there! So Friday night we were up until two in the morning talking, or more gossiping (bad, kiyomi, bad ;P) about everything under the sun. Then we had "seminars" all day Saturday. Most of them were good and I got a lot out of them. Hopefully&amp;nbsp; we'll be able to use much of what we learned to help our pathfinder club to grow physically and spiritually. Then, that&amp;nbsp;night they had the banquet. hehehe...frontier days. Every one dressed like cowboys and most of the surrey tigers ladies were dressed as (what we like to call) "Ladies of the night" it was fun. Baked potatoes, chilli and cornbread. Also, preserves, pie and home made ice cream for dessert. Yum... Speaking of home made, they also had us churn our own butter as well. The churner broke, so we had to put the cream in jars and shake them. It was hilarious. Anyhow, I got home at midnight and I haven't been ablew to relax. So tired. My eyes feel like they are going ot fall out of my head anytime now. &lt;IMG src="http://www.xanga.com/images/whatevah.gif" width=15 border=0&gt;&amp;nbsp;Well, I have class in ten minutes, so I had better go. I just really want to sleep...</description><comments>http://short-by-nature.xanga.com/540578081/item/#firstcomment</comments></item><item><title>Tuesday, October 03, 2006</title><link>http://short-by-nature.xanga.com/534881807/item/</link><guid>http://short-by-nature.xanga.com/534881807/item/</guid><pubDate>Tue, 03 Oct 2006 22:21:53 GMT</pubDate><description>&lt;P&gt;Mmmm... I am so frickin bored. I have at grand total of four hours of nothing until my next class, which just so happens to be three hours of choir. I am so thrilled, can't you hear my excitement. Very tired, don't want to sing. I can't exactly skip, cuase then i can't skip for CUC Days. Yeah, if we miss more than one class per term, we will recieve a failing grade in the class for the semester. I need a break from school. Thank goodness for the upcoming four day weekend. Don't burn out, don't burn out, don't burn.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;So, I have blabbed to one person about this so far. Not in much detail though. I am pathetic. Completely and utterly pathetic. Whenyou start to think you are over something...don't believe yourself.&amp;nbsp;Over and out.&lt;/P&gt;</description><comments>http://short-by-nature.xanga.com/534881807/item/#firstcomment</comments></item><item><title>Friday, September 01, 2006</title><link>http://short-by-nature.xanga.com/524827966/item/</link><guid>http://short-by-nature.xanga.com/524827966/item/</guid><pubDate>Fri, 01 Sep 2006 00:34:45 GMT</pubDate><description>hello pplz.

Oh yeah...so cool. Tommorow's my last day though, so that's okay. Ooh. "Celebrity Sighting" I saw someone with their kid and wife today. Now, contrary to what any of you may think, I find this very cool. If you don't then...you suck. Anyhow, I saw (and met..if you even care...) Erik McCormack (Will) from Will and Grace. So...yeah. He's really nice...and his kid is really cute. Anyhow...I'm done. I can't really think right now.

Soooooo glad that I didn't get eight out like some people I know.  Sigh... Anyhow, I like T-3's. heheheh. My cousin, Asaki, is coming from Japan tommorow. That'll be fun. I feel like a burnt marshmallow.She's staying for two weeks but I'm only seeing three days of her. I leave on sunday. Can't wait. Need to be occupied and break the monotony muchly. Hehe. I get to see Alissa and Amy! I can't wait to get out of here.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Went to Fraser today to drop off Jeff's application. It smells too clean. I miss the normal smell.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;</description><comments>http://short-by-nature.xanga.com/507681268/item/#firstcomment</comments></item><item><title>Saturday, July 01, 2006</title><link>http://short-by-nature.xanga.com/503488556/item/</link><guid>http://short-by-nature.xanga.com/503488556/item/</guid><pubDate>Sat, 01 Jul 2006 20:28:50 GMT</pubDate><description>I HATE SUMMER!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyhow. I think that I've gotten that across by now. I am so bored. I want to be at school. That sounds pathetic. Oh, and valen may be "over it", but it turns out that I am not over my "it" and that is not good because it will probably drive me to the brink of insanity and then push me over the edge when I am least expecting it. *sigh* have you ever wondered why you behave and react the way you do? I wonder about that all the time, and then think "what the hell is wrong with me?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am slowly going crazy 1,2,3,4,5,6 switch. Crazy going slowly am I 6,5,4,3,2,1 switch.

I like warmth, but when I am sweating buckets and can hardly move due to the heat. I Think that's a little overkill. Good thing about heat is that I can tan easier...of course, tanning can also cause skin cancer and premature aging, so....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2) The Boredom~&lt;br /&gt;    There really is not a lot to do at home. I don't have my N or a vehicle for that matter, so I can't really go anywhere without my motherly escort. How fun...  I spend most of my time sleeping, "cleaning", redaing, or...sleeping. So productive. Also, the bad part about going to a school where the students come from everywhere under the sun, it's not gauranteed that your friends will all be from your area. In my case they aren't. So it's not lioke I can just jump up and go out with them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3) The Family~&lt;br /&gt;    My family sucks. I would much rather be at Fraser Valley (other will argue) than at home. My mother is always so bloody annoying. She nags a lot. And everything else you could possibly think of to drive me insane. My brother is the king of the geeks and I have to put up with that 24/7 now. My dad works all day, but when he's home he is either in a goofy tolerable mood, or he is grouchy and irritable. During the summer, it is usually that later during the summer due to his job. FYI not my fault.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4) The Insanity~&lt;br /&gt;    Combine the above  together and you'll understand vaguely why it would be nuts...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More later...</description><comments>http://short-by-nature.xanga.com/502826332/what-i-hate-about-summer/#firstcomment</comments></item><item><title>Wednesday, June 28, 2006</title><link>http://short-by-nature.xanga.com/502337691/item/</link><guid>http://short-by-nature.xanga.com/502337691/item/</guid><pubDate>Wed, 28 Jun 2006 18:58:38 GMT</pubDate><description>I really don't have much time right now. When I have more time, I'll grace you all with my "What I Hate About..."list.

It's all done. Completely over with. Sort of. The last day of school was...interesting. You know, it was mostly pretty for most of the day. Yeah. It was all good until the handshake. As expected. I really can't believe that I am finished at Fraser Valley. I am far too sappy and emotional and crap. Bleh... </description><comments>http://short-by-nature.xanga.com/500145798/item/#firstcomment</comments></item><item><title>Friday, June 16, 2006</title><link>http://short-by-nature.xanga.com/497831601/item/</link><guid>http://short-by-nature.xanga.com/497831601/item/</guid><pubDate>Fri, 16 Jun 2006 21:50:32 GMT</pubDate><description>*sigh*&lt;br /&gt;There is officially two days of school left. That's it. I am dropping History so I won't be at school for that exam, and now Okimi has decided that we are going to have a take home inal exam. So I don't get to go to school for that exam either. You would think that I would be happy about that, but no. Because, you see, all this means, is that Tuesday is the LAST day that i am going to see many people in my class. Some never again. Even my best friends. I'll see some of thhem over the summer, but there is a good chance that I won't see Alissa again for a very very long time. :( And it also means that there are a few teachers that i won't ever see again most likely. They're gone next year, so even if I came to visit FVAA next year, "my" teachers won't be there. cry, cry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am soooooo not ready for this. I can't do this on my own.</description><comments>http://short-by-nature.xanga.com/497831601/item/#firstcomment</comments></item></channel></rss>
