my capunk.com email doesn't work anymore.

i'd made a gmail account a few months ago but never switched over yet. Apparently the password i use for EVERYTHING is not the one i chose for my gmail account...and my secondary address where they'd send the password to is my address that doesn't freakin' work anymore.

I don't want my hotmail one, because I have a new name I'd like to use and apparently any new hotmail accounts created can't be accessed through anything like Outlook...and i use a program like it. oh and hotmail sucks.

Soo I'm going to continue to try and figure out my password....
uhmmmm did that make sense.

grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

better update soon, I promise...

My dad just put an offer on a house up north. It's up by placerville/folsom area, a bit north a sacramento. The pictures aren't too great but i guess you get the point. It actually has 3 bedrooms + another room over the garage and an office. The deck that over looks all these hills and a lake has a pool and spa on it. And so on. It'd be more of a second home for the next 2 years. my dad is finishing up some big projects here and he'll be able to pay cash for it now and do some renovations to it in the meantime.

http://www.greatwestgmac.com/listings/detail.php?lid=5408300&limit=0&offset=0&&&posc=9&post=21&cfq=startnewsearch%3D1%26searchtypesent%3D1%26property_category%3D1%26searchtype%3D1%26state%3D6%26city%255B%255D%3DCamino%26yb_l%3D0000%26yb_h%3D2005%26vtycount%3D2%26restype%3D1%26limit%3D10%26sort%3D1%26b.x%3D10%26b.y%3D6%26SRSearchDate%3D1113925976%26SRRecordCount%3D21%26SRPage%3D1%26SRPageCount%3D3%26SRPageLinks%3D6

So this means I'll have to make all these decisions. Do I go? Everything is pointing to yes...again, this will be a while before it actually happends and things change. Things to think about in the meantime: do i want to finish up 4 years of school here? I have yet to even pick a major, and I have to after this quarter. I love my job SOO much and the people at my work, that'll suck having to find a job. I've never had another job. And mostly the friend thing. I love SOOOOO many people here, can I take them all with me? Will I lose contact with them? I barely see many of them as it is, yet they're so important to me nonetheless. I need to spend more time with people. I'm not worried about Mike, we'll always be together and he is down for anything. He'll be coming with us, he's not afraid of anything. And i'll be leaving everything I've known since junior high. My dad says when we moved from Lancaster to here i was depressed for like the first year. I can see that. When i look back at all of our moves I don't really remember being extremely sad afterwards. It's not like I like Bakersfield at all, it's too freaking hot and ugly...it's everything else. I know some of you have been through this...and if and when we go...we won't know anybody at all...we don't know much of anyone up there except a few relatives about 1-2 hours away. Bleh too much to think about. At least I have a while.

Fri, 08 Apr 2005 05:18:33 GMT

WHY do I owe $322 in taxes??? Why??? I'm the poorest I've been in a while and I owe that much?? I could afford that if i wasn't working part-time. Freakin' lame!

I need new clothes too. not even kidding. although i did just win a pair of my favorite GAP jeans ever on ebay (they discontinued them a few months ago). but still. I want to go to santa barbara.

school is easy and boring.

lalalallala.

people never call me.

lalalallala.

the devil cat attached my dad today...hardcore. that thing has to go. it ran behind our entertainment center and won't come out because i'm sure it knows it's fate now.

the end!

annndd it's over

I'm too lazy to think about it, and type a lot, so here is the past 5 days in pictures (our vacation to Mammoth). These are taken from my phone so some of them are a little blurry mostly because of movement.

The drive up

Hardcore like whoa

Those itty bitty little things are us on our snowmobiling adventure.

Sister and Nolan

Mike took on the king's beer, haha.

I like dog butts. But seriously, we so went dog sledding :)

This is what Mike did on the way from Mammoth to Placerville (up above Sacramento)...tried to get internet connection on the laptop while going through various random cities.

Driving through South Lake Tahoe....

Now, I am very anxious to sleep peacefully in my own bed, getting to bed at a not-so-old-people time, and not waking up at the butt crack of dawn for a 10:30 class.

Tue, 22 Mar 2005 01:39:28 GMT

Everyone shall go and buy the DVD :)

Wed, 16 Mar 2005 23:06:48 GMT

This morning:
1. Cat pees in my bed.
2. I grab all of my sheets and throw them in the washer before i go to work
3. Can't find my cell phone.
4. Cell phone must be in WASHER.
5. New washer = locks when it is on.
6. Spend 15 mins trying to figure out how to get it open.
7. Phone is dead.
8. Don't have another phone.
9. Call my house if you need me! 587-1204

Choppy chop...new hair finalllyyyy.

now back to painting....

Fri, 11 Mar 2005 08:31:26 GMT

WOW...I just spent the last 2 hours cleaning/rearranging/organizing my room. It's weird...once you start you just can't stop! I still have more to do (including laundry to finish) but i have to wake up at 8am!

Mon, 07 Mar 2005 03:44:14 GMT

Woooo long weekend. I'm about to fall asleep right now at 7:30 pm...and i think i may! Let's see, mike and I watched lots of movies this weekend...like the Notebook (the only good one) and without a paddle (stupid). We did lots of hanging around. Last night we roamed around Target like the good old days, i forgot how much i love it! no...wait..i didn't forget :)

Today I woke up bright and early and we went with my parents and the puppies to my dad's project up in the bluffs. There was an article in the newspaper today about it...I swear, people are so ignorant. I'd say the whole thing in a nutshell but it's too much and too stupid. Anyway, that was fun..we hiked around, played with the dogs, rode around in the "ranger"...i don't even know really what it is...like a super awesome golf cart that goes really fast and climbs straight up, haha. And the rest of today, all i've been doing is homework - a paper, other random assignments, research, etc. I still need to finish my paintings, why must we procrastinate? Oh and I just did some working out on the elliptical, and finally took a shower today! woop.

Tue, 01 Mar 2005 07:16:57 GMT

Say hello to my new sidekick

Thu, 24 Feb 2005 03:05:17 GMT

I'm listening to the new Copeland right now, not so sure about it just yet...I've only listened to about half of it. I guess you'd have to have a listen for youself. One of the songs sucks hardcore though..well i guess not 'hardcore' since copeland isn't so hard. Let me rephrase: one of the songs sucks emocore!!! ANNNNYWAYS, I haven't seen my boyfriend in a couple days so I'm just wasting my time right now until i go over there. Here are some random pictures from about the past month or so. I suck at taking my camera places so as you can see they're all taken at my house, haha.

New Shirt!!!

hahaaaaa, I had to!

Flowers from Mike and my parents on Valentine's Day

the boxes!

Mike, cooking on V-day...what what!

Haha you don't want to know, this is one of the lesser embarassing pics.

New PURSEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Sat, 19 Feb 2005 17:40:48 GMT

Does anyone want Mike's kitty? It's the best cat in the world, or close to it. And super cute and such a people cat. I would take it in a heartbeat if my parents would let me have another cat. Pleaaaaaaaseeeeeeeeeeeeee, i won't let him give it to the spca!!!

Thu, 17 Feb 2005 06:30:57 GMT

Ohh let's see. I am currently watching the newlyweds followed by the ashlee simpson show. guilty pleasures.
The weather has been really good lately, Mike and I even got to ride our bike's on Sunday afternoon! Soo much fun...maybe next time we'll actually go further than a few minutes away from my house, haha. Valentine's day was nice as well, i actually didn't go to school that day but...i should have since plans kind of got messed up. darn! But mike made dinner, i'd like to say that i assisted very well. It took us hours because we had to go to a billion different stores, but it was fun! I was going to post a couple pictures buuut I'm too lazy to put my camera card in the computer. go me. oh yeah and my hair is driving me crazy, i think i may need a new look - SOMETHING!!!

name that band!

Sat, 12 Feb 2005 18:53:35 GMT

You're the words that come out easy,
And I am speechless at best.
Your star it seems to shine above the rest.
You're the face before the cameras,
The smile i'd like to earn.
The closest thing to perfect,
In a hollywood to burn.
You're the beauty that is deeper,
Than eyes can merely see.
The closest thing to perfect.
But the farthest thing from me.

I'd love to be,
The shoulder that you cry on.
I'd love to be,
The friend you call when things are great.

You're the dream that hasn't ended,
And I'm still anxious for rest.
Your words they seem to hang above my head.
You're the bud before the flower,
Unfurls into full bloom.
Captivating beauty,
But it maybe all too soon.
You're the song that writes a story,
But leaves alot to read.
The closest thing to perfect,
But the farthest thing from me.

And like I really deserve a chance to,
Sit across the table,
And tell you that I think you're wonderful.
And I think you're something special.
I guess this is my only chance to,
Say I wish I knew you,
Because I'm sure you're wonderful,
If I'd get to know you.

Wed, 09 Feb 2005 15:17:13 GMT

It's 7 in the morning....i dont know what time i went to bed, maybe around one. i've been sick since sunday night. i got this huge headache last night and it's the reason why i'm up right now. i don't even have school until 3 today so i wanted to get some sleep. being sick makes EVERYTHING suck. bleh.

Fri, 04 Feb 2005 20:14:41 GMT

Saw Thrice last night. how was it you say? what do you think...it's freaking thrice!!! I knew they were going to play a couple new songs, but to everyone's surprise they played SEVEN!!! Half old songs, half brand new and never played before! Boy do i feel special. I was skeptical that the new songs were going to be slower and just a lot different...but it was pure goodness. There were a couple songs that were a little slower that the typical Thrice songs, but they were freaking good. They now have added some keyboards it, not a lot..just a little bit in the background of some of the songs- and it's perfect! If you've ever heard Isis, that's what a few of the songs sounded like to me - on the slower side, yet hardcore-ish, but melodic and pretty. There was maybe one song that was just good, everything else was WHOA! So it was a VERY fantastic night, and i was very glad to see a lot of my out-of-town friends!!! We're going to see them again tonight in Fresno!!!!! It'll be a lot better than jerry's pizza...at least we'll be able to see more than just the top of dustin's head.

They played with a band called Veda, they have a girl singer. And much to my surprise I really liked it, she had a freaking good voice live. So listen: http://www.myspace.com/veda OR http://www.purevolume.com/veda (the songs don't really do them as much justice as the live show).

I never really noticed how slow my internet actually was. There are 3-4 computers in our house at most times so we have this wirless network thing and it's old and apparently an old version at that. So my dad replaced it all finally and mike got it all up and working last night and it's unbelievably fast. I was downloading songs off some dude and downloading a whole cd took as long as just one song would take. This is my totally dorky update!

Oh and can someone tell me where (online or otherwise) i can find some cute moccasins?? Or a brand at least??

Fri, 14 Jan 2005 19:08:52 GMT

Crackers and tuna = GOOD! So i'm just chillin right now before i go to work. Our house cleaner is here so i dont really want to get in the way so i gotsta stay in my room. I really want to watch some Friends....hahaaaaaa. I totally thought that the last two seasons were out so i finsihed the 8th and mike was like well they're not out, and i said yes they are!!! but he proved me wrong. good thing i actually remember the last couple so i don't have to wait to find out what happends after Joey accidently holds a ring out to Rachel. HA HAAAAAAA.
So i'm making some bomb dinner tonight. Buffalo wings!!!!!!! It should be wonderful. Last night me, Mike, Brandon, Nicole, Theresa and tyler went to Applebees and for some reason (on a thursday night have you) it was so incredibly crowded. Who eats out at 8pm on a Thursday night??? Apparently everyone! We saw stephanie there, too bad she couldnt stay and eat with us!!! And as always, they got mike's order wrong and it still wasn't out by the time we were all done so he was made and he told her he didnt want it at all. That seems to happen most places we go, what's with restaurants today??????????

School has started up and i have a very tough quarter: Ecology, Painting, and Acting 1 (can you sense the sarcasm?). The bad thing about this is that I have class all day Mon/Wed, Tues. until 1, and Friday morning. SOO I can only work about 16 hours a week. Also going back and forth wastes a lot of gas!! Hopefully I'll have enough money to pay my bills! Next quarter I'll have to take on some Chem and some Math, so I shouldnt take this quarter too easy I guess.
We spent New Years up in SF with the Mallory<3 It had it's ups and downs but i'm glad we went because although some things were frustrating it was still a good time. The fireworks were flipping amazing (see pictures) and they went on forever. Not to mention the weed-smoking, alcohol-drinking, BART-riding, AC/DC-loving GANGSTAS! Haha, oh man.
Since I got me a nice ipod i've been spending most of my free time getting lots and lots of music. I would say I have a lot, but then I look at a few people I know that have 6,000+ songs. But that would be a waste for me since I most likely wouldnt listen to half of it, and it would be taking up lots of room on my computer. Anyone want my old mp3 player?
Yesterday was me and Mike's 3-year "anniversary," weird eh? I love that boy....most of the time ;) We had lunch at Macaroni Grill because we also celebrated my sister's birthday that night so we really couldn't do anything. But we did go see Life Aquatic and that was a good movie. Also been watching Friends - season 6 in my free time this weekend. I think i might be almost done so maybe I'll have to buy some more :) They're just soo expensive!

Let's see, a couple shows coming up to be excited for, any others i should be aware of?
1/22/05 $7 6PM @ JERRY'S
moments in grace, rock n roll soldiers, down from nothing, fairwell madison + 4
2/3/05 @ Jerry's.....
THRICE!!!!!!!!!

here are a few random pictures from the past few weeks (new years + randoms)
