After being voted off the Midway by my colleagues who told the supervisors before I was even consulted that I was going home sick, I'm sitting at home in excruciating pain

After waiting in the walk in clinic for over an hour, the doctor finally confirmed what I already know: I have strep throat. Strangely enough only on my right....I don't know how that works. He gave me a prescription for T-3's and something like penicillin, but not because I would die if I had penicillin, (the doctors response on finding this out: " so I'm going to prescribe to you *looks at file* *frowns* how allergic to penicillin? Me: My joints swell up and i die? Him: ....*frustrated* I'll give you novo-clydamin (or however it's spelled)).

I then made my way over to London Drugs to get my prescription filled. The (seemingly) moronic pharmacist, had me wait for ten minutes before she acknowledge my presence and asked how she could help me. After sitting down and handing her the prescription, she answers the phone and has a nice little chat with the person on the other line about a mistake she had made by pushing the wrong button and blah blah. I ,meanwhile, am shivering because I am feverish, all alone and in pain. After finally telling me to come back in ten minutes she makes the keen observation: "you look a bit cold?" Me: -_-* Yeah. I then go and nap in my car for fifteen minutes setting my Ipod for my alarm clock, and then head back. Her: "oh! I forgot to get the double check on it, just a moment ^-^" As she joked and laughed with the other people working in the pharmacy, she finally gives me my medication and says: "*chuckles* It's just one of those days, I kept on doing _______ wrong. So silly" I smiled and replied kindly, all the while cursing her and wanting to beat her over the head with a bat.

I have since crawled in to bed and attempted to sleep for the past 5 hours, with the t-3's doing squat and taking Advil in the desperate attempt to hurt less to no avail. No one's come home yet so I sit here in my own self pity wishing and waiting for some family member to come home. Mom won't be home till after eight, Katherine is gone till Sunday, Dad won't be home till late and Evan won't be over till after seven.

;_; I hurt....

So I found this cool rant while searching the internet and decided to post it. Here's a short sample : (talking about how cars are bad for the environment and what we give up for it)

-Less mobility.

Oooh, you say, that's bad. Mobility is good. Well, I'd argue that mobility is good and bad. And if we have to take all the bad stuff above in exchange for it, well, I think we might have sold our soul to the devil. Here is your mobility, now I'll rape your environment and culture and steal your happiness and your connection to the land.

If you enjoyed that you can go to http://www.ecomafia.com/essays/suvssuck.html if you want to read the whole thing.

Here is my challenge to you: Write Ten reasons why you need a car and then write ten reasons why you don't.

So today I am doing the thirty hour famine. I am starving. Literally! So what better to do when you're depriving your body of nutrition, nourishment and most importantly energy, than to go for a splendid hour long bike ride! ^_^ >_> not one of my brighter moves but meh.

I am going crazy with no skiing and I am so thankful that I have Evan or else I think I would be in asylum.

...I miss skiing.

I was looking at pictures of someone, and even thought they were smiling I was brought to tears. At first I couldn't figure what was wrong with me. Was I jealous of them? Was I hurt by them? Or was it something more? I couldn't figure out why seeing this person so happy made me feel so sad. Then again maybe the PMS, chocolate chips cookie dough with brownie chunks, and Evanescence's "solitude" playing in the background didn't help. Perhaps it's because I'm feeling withdrawing pains form no more Rabbit Hill. I shouldn't feel so sad. I mean, I have a wonderful boyfriend who is very loving, the sun is shining, school is (sort of) going well. Then it occurred to me that the reason why I was feeling sad is because I wasn't smiling with that someone in the pictures and the fear that I will never again. The thought of knowing that I'm losing them and maybe have already lost them. I didn't want this to happen, my relationship with them is toxic and I know this, it's just the withdraw pains are almost unbearable. I wish I didn't love them so much.

I really need a break from life. A road trip perhaps.














I miss her.

It's seven o'clock in the morning, and I am doing some homework that won't be finished but is due today.

I am dating the most awesome guy ever named Evan.

School is going way better.

Work is almost due to the ending of the season *tear*

I'm heading to Jasper for a day over spring break as well as to Saskatchewan on the last Friday. Nothing in the middle so far.

Procrastinating much?

So I am in love with my job. I wish I could live there 24/7. They like me there and I am accepted by all of them, even the snowboarders! I can't believe there is only three weeks left. I am going to cry. I am starting work at the hospital again. I'm not so sure I want to be back there but whatever. I also got asked if I wanted to work at Fort Edmonton at the midway, I think it sounds cool.

People should post more...

I'm back from my awesome ski trip in Kimberly B.C., The drive wasn't that bad, I managed to knit a fair bit of my scarf on the way there and tore trough three quarters of my book on the way back. I skied Saturday, which was awesome because of gorgeous -2 - +2 weather. Sunday it was snowing over and inch of powder an hour! It was paradise! I couldn't see my ski's! *drool* Luckily this time I was able to drag my cousin down some black runs with my (which made my weekend), unfortunately, everyone's legs decided to be soar after lunch on Sunday. So this morning as I woke up to find freshly fallen powder on the ground, and with the knowledge that there was still going to be residual powder on the black runs, only to discover that my dad didn't want to go skiing because he was sore. After pleading and begging he still refused to let me ski till eleven and leave then. As we got into the car and started to drive away he asked me why I was so upset and without needing my reply he says to me why would HE want to stay and wait around for two hours while I went out. I never answered only thought to myself, it's not about him wanting to stay, but him staying because he loves me and he knows that it would make me happy. I tried my best to talk to him as little as possible and he tried to buy me everything possible that could make me happier along the way home in regards to travel foods and stuff.
But now we're back home and I miss the mountains.

School tomorrow. Blech. Math all day. And I need to bake several items for our bake sale tomorrow.

Maybe I'll post later.


*My cousin and I ended up going down a run, which wasn't so much as a run more as slightly spread apart trees and a sign indicating it as one. You didn't really get a choice of when to turn. Now or....NOW. We laughed ourselves silly. It wasn't until we got to the bottom and read the maps again looking at some more blacks we could do that we discovered it wasn't a black run so much as a Double Black Diamond. XD

So it seems recently that everyone is really getting to caught up in life to update anymore. Almost as if we've hit a dry spot. I really hope that the rain comes soon because god only knows, this is basically the only way I can find out what's going on in peoples life. Well since I am going to practice what I preach, I am going to update about my life.

Semester two is very interesting. I love working at Rabbit Hill full time, though this is rendering my mother quite melancholy about it all. So much so that the other night she picked an argument with me and then tried to apologize for it later because she tells me she's just frustrated with me and my attitude towards her and how I apparently "snap" at her every time she tries to talk to me. I will say that this is partially true, but only because every time I see her she tries to talk to me and this is always at eleven o'clock at night since I rarely am home anymore. I feel for her and I'm going to try and make it up. We're seeing "The Producers" next Wednesday night so hopefully I can make it up to her then.

Thinking of never being home, my plans to go to Europe are always changing though I think I've come across a good plan. In July I am going to go to Montreal or Quebec to find work instead of Switzerland like I had originally planned. This way I won't need a working Visa and because most exchange companies are dead set against me not being 18. Well screw them. After I've saved up enough money, I'm thinking of heading in October to Europe and then just bumming around for several weeks. This way I won't have to worry about as much stuff.

Such as money. I went to the Bank today and am feeling quite broke. Basically I've been spending a lot of money that I should be saving and because people deposit checks that I give them ;_; And then I remembered how many people owe me money. Which made me slightly happier. Thought not enough to make me still feel broke.

In any case, I am thinking of spending more money, that I probably shouldn't be, and purchasing a nice laptop for myself. I think I can finally convince my mother that this is a worthy enough cause to give me my prosperity check. *cross' fingers*

So what else is going on in my life? I am heading to our condo in Kimberly B.C. again this Friday. I am so stoked.
School....well I am not sure how well I am going to like this Math 30 onside...I need to do well but still....I like paper. English is going fantastic and I am currently procrastinating on writing a two hour paper and two hour Journal entry. Fantastic.

Well I think I'll get on that. Hope everyone had a wonderful Valentines day. Didn't receive anything (except for the wonderful sewing kit from my mom and dad) but hey, I spent a heck of a lot of money on other people and they were extremely happy with that so their happiness has made me happy.

Happy Valentines Day!

( Survey )

So I tonight I was just randomly going through my mind, when I figured out a joke that was told yesterday. Can you say delayed reaction? Yeah, I just didn't actually hear what the person said and then I filled in the blank today. Wow.

I will be leaving on Friday to go to Kimberly for a ski trip. An eight hour car ride with just my dad. *sarcastic* yay.

Tomorrow is Grad photos. Maybe I should go to bed so I don't have bags under my eyes.

Work was slack today. I taught twice and hosted once, made a new friend who apparently lives in St.Albert! Hooray! Only made five hours but managed to get some reading done as well as some research.

Night!
