EWW....2009

The only reason I said ew was that I don't want to graduate... it will be 5 months from this Friday that I walk down that isle of the gym at the big A.

In other news, I'm going to be partying it up tonight..heck yes. No we're not going to the bars, we're going to be chilling at school.

I worked the last two days, and skated too..so i've spent alot of time at the rink. I finished my research proposal for Guatemala. Um I am pretty close to being packed...ha ha I have this little suitcase...it's way different than what I am use to using for trips.

I don't have that much going on lately. I had another strange dream last night.... it was weird.

I'll write probably again on friday before I head off to Guatemala.

BORED at the rink

So i was suppose to come in to work at 8:30 ish, but then they changed it to 9:30-1:30 shift. So yeah, then I find out I only get to do 2 resurfaces today! very upsetting! I'll find an excuse to do a 3rd resurface! Plus I have to hang around the rink waiting for my friend who's going to go to lunch with me around 2:15 ish Yay!

I have been having bad dreams lately. I know i had one about skating and one about work. The one I remember was where in my dream I finally got to talk to the person I had that falling out with. ( the only reason I want to talk to him is because I feel like I never got a chance to explain my side of what happened and it made me feel really bad that he gave me dirty looks all the time etc. and of course no one likes to be disliked. Especially over something so silly, I mean can't we grow up and move on?) Anyways so in my dream i guess I talked with him, I think i blanked out for part of it because the next part I remember he's yelling at me and telling me " F*** you " and " I hate you." I woke up rather upset.I felt really bad when I woke up and i'm actually kind of bothered by the dream.

I just got super tired all of a sudden. It's only like 11, I don't have a resurface till 12:45...how lame is that!


Anyways I leave in 5 days...

I leave in one week

Yep, I leave for Guatemala in one week.

things to get:

Electric converter for plugging stuff into the wall
bug spray
My sanity
Gifts for the family I stay with


In other news, I got like 4 hours of sleep last night,I seriously couldn't fall asleep. During those four hours of sleep I had a bad dream and I woke up kind of cranky. I hope I make it through work today, the screaming kid outside the rink office is totally not helping my mood.

I got my hair cut yesterday, saw KFlem, um started the dangerous task of cleaning my bedroom. I finished one book for my trip the other day, have half my research proposal written up and started the second book.

it's Christmas...not study time

You know you are a loser when you spend 2 hours reading/studying on Christmas day. Yep.

In other news I am watching one of my favorite movies, Surfs Up. The penguin surfing movie, I love it.

In other news It was Christmas today.Got some stuff. An igloo shaped cake pan...made a cake. Yes indeed.

We have dinner at like 6, then Um.... Stupid brother is coming over.

I'm chilling out with my stuffed penguin in the living room.

Yay my dad came in!

I'm getting my hair cut tomorrow, very exciting...i think I last got it cut in like May....yay!

I have a plush penguin sitting next to me

As I sit here I am soothed by the latin pop tunes of RBD. So that brings me back to my next point, I finally finished Rebelde! I fell sad that it's over, but I feel like I actually accomplished something!

We had an exhibition/competition yesterday we skated really well considering we totally just finished the program, we have tons of room for improvement. I'm so excited to make changes and to only just get better.

In other news I'm too afraid to tell my mom what my grades were for the semester. Yeah it was that bad. I've never done that bad in school in my life. My once half decent GPA ( well good by my standards) is now a shitty GPA....I am going to work my ass off next semester. So long social life.

I finally have some clean Laundry.

I need to do more studying for Guatemala and make up a list of things I need.



I had the worst head ache last night, I think i'm dehydrated. Anywho I'm at work right now and yeah well that's that. I feel too distracted to study today...its weird. I totally took my meds, yet i'm having a super hard time focusing. Tomorrow I can work my butt off hopefully.

Egads christmas is this week...well that's not good. I hate christmas music by the way...so don't play it around me....i can handle it in small quantities.

MEMORY LANE!!!!LMAO

So I'm on my dads computer and i'm going through the itunes library and well I've fond some weird stuff that i'm pretty sure i got back in the days of the Academy and perhaps my 7th and 8th grade years and perhaps earlier

Intelligence- by Alan Rickman ( yeah I can't remember what it's from but it's weird and well there's back up singers and his sultry voice)

B*Witched ...Remember that Irish girl pop band oh yeah I have some of that

BBMak- I loved them in 8th grade

Celine Dion- She's classic

Academy concert choir,women's/mens chorale.chamber choir, and quintents from 04-05'. Such hits include: Homeland, The boy who picked up his feet to fly, Elijah Rock. Amazingly I can remember my parts from these songs ha ha. Who can't forget the suffering of 'the prayer of the children.'

The bad ass irish music i skated to on OJ in synchro 9th grade

The Theme song from X-Men 2 ( i wanted to skate to this so bad...its just bad ass Annika skating music but there wasn't enough of it to cut for a good program)

Linkin Park...I enjoy their semi-dark yet good music

NSYNC...enough said

I'm too sexy - Right said fred

THE MARCH OF THE SINISTER DUCKS!!!! HELL YES

Sexbomb-Tom Jones

12 pains of christmas

Oh god.... THE THEME FROM THE MUSICAL HAIR!!!! HAIR

The theme for ducktales

A recording of monty pythons spam skit

HOLY SHIT I HAVE certian english teacher's recordings of old english

Ducktails was pretty much the highlight for sure though

Hungry Hungry Annika

My list of complaints:

1.I'm really sore from skating for some reason and our synchro dresses are hidious in my opinion.
2. I'm really hungry
3. I have a shit ton of work to do before January 2nd.
4. My room is a death pit and I'm suppose to clean it by christmas
5. I hate christmas music it's too ...just ...so obnoxious
6. WTF Target how the hell do you not sell hair nets ( we use them for skating to secure our buns in our hair) I went to Wallgreens instead.

My list of good things in life:
1. I'm on break
2. I started working on stuff for my trip/class
3. I survived my one final
4. I slept well last night and my bed was beyond cozy
5. I have lost approximately 10 pounds since the beginning of the school year. I was about 165 when i started school ( yes that's disgusting right?) and I weighed my self yesterday and I was I think either 152 or 150 I can't remember. Plus that was when I hadn't eaten in a while...so i'll guestimate 10 pounds or so. My pants are all alot baggier on me ha ha.
6. I got along with my boss at work yesterday

In other news I wish i had the movie anchorman on DVD it's funny.

Um ...that's all i got,

OMG *excited squeal*

p.s i'm watching rebelde again i'll start studying for guatemala tomorrow

Soo it's monday

Today was pay day, very exciting. I am 280.00 or so dollars richer.

Yeah so I have a test from 10:15-12:15 tomorrow then i'm free!!!! Well for a few hours at least, then it's back to the books to prepare for Guatemala.

I'm sitting in the Library right now waiting for my friend to come, but I really have to pee and I don't want to leave my stuff unattended. Ugh maybe i'll ask the people at the table behind me to keep an eye on it while I go. I know the one girl I had a class with her.

Ugh stupid bladder, maybe i'll wait till my friend gets here but that's like 45 min from now..ahh!


Annika's Attractive guy update: Yep saw the guy with the abs at lunch today ...yep that's all I got, no silly stories to go with that. I mean there's this other story but I think you'd get bored reading about it. ha ha.

I'm listening to " we are the champions" by Queen. Such a good power ballad. Oh i switched it to Little Red Corvette by Prince...wait it's now the Raiders of the Lost Ark theme...heck yes!

Good news! like Seriously this is awesome! Oh and Boys too!

Yeah say goodbye to my moderately good GPA. Yes I'm pretty sure i'll be getting a 1.0 or 1.5 in Spanish. But the good news is that I found out I will still get credit for that class! So i can graduate on time! Hells yes! Like seriously I want to do a funky awesome victory dance today. So i can drop that 5th class I picked up..thank god.

I went to chapel for the first time today in my life. They were celebrating Las Posadas basically its the mexican christmas. I sat with my friend who's el capitano of the womens hockey team ( she was my roomie sophomore year) . Then two of the mens hockey team captians and like another guy came and sat in front of us. I only knew one of the guys who was directly in front of me but the guy to his right...damn! he was cute! So this leads on to the next topic of this blog for today...

You know how when most normal girls are like 15 they go through the boy craze...well I finally figured out I'm finally going though it. As my friend Nissa says i'm a late bloomer. I mean there was that thing first year at the Academy ( I don't like talking about it much it's embarrassing) but that was just on one person. Plus that other person i had a crush on from sophomore year through senior year...which i never talked to the guy because he intimidated me alot for some reason.Haha. Now it's like every guy I see who's moderately attractive i'm like...OOOH BOY! HE'S CUTE ....IS HE SINGLE? I seem to be going for guys on the men's hockey team... it's like..."OOOHHH HOCKEY BOY!!!" It's so not like me at all...it's kinda hilarious I think my roommate gets a hoot out of me telling her about which cute guy i saw walking out of christianson center or the science building. Or a story like what happened on wednesday when the cute blonde guy from the hockey team with the creepy abs ( yeah he has a pic of himself on fb shirtless and well as my friend Morgan put's it " he looks like a ken doll" yes it's pretty creepy ) and how he was standing next to me in the lunch line ( which there are several) He had been in the line for hot food and then he moved to the cold sandwich like. Then I got too nervous to say hi to him..I was totally gonna ask him how hockey was going..but I totally chickened out and got distracted by the woman making my egg salad sandwich. I like egg salad its yummy! I saw him today at chapel, casually I just turned around to see who was sitting behind us and he was totally sitting about 7 rows behind us looking at me...i'm not paranoid I'm serious. ...I have more stories...but yea that's me and boys in a nutshell.


This brings back a good memory in 10th grade gym when we had dance unit. Aside from the possibly gay dance teacher who looked and spoke like he was latino but i found out he was really like European or something and apparently had a girlfriend or something told us to "1...2...3,...stalk.. your ..prey..behind.. the.. bush" when we learned tango. Remember how small our class was and that person I had a crush on was in the class. I remember telling Ruth " Oh, "chaz" is such a good dancer." Seriously Ruth looked at me like i was crazy. She says, "No he isn't ...?" it was a funny memory. So I thought I would mention it. Yeah I didn't want to use that persons real name. If you can't remember who it was i'll tell you sometime.

I'm going to see twilight again with my friends then we're going out for cocktails and appetizers! yay!

Ha ha ha ha yeah that's all i got now.

UGHHH

So luckily i have time to save my ass and take a 5 class next semester so I can graduate.

I hate myself.

Well that was pure BS

Yeah i just pretty much BSed my spanish test. I hope to god I pass that class, if I get a 2.5 I will be dancing! Yes a victory dance will be held!

In other news:

They seem to change the blade on the Zamboni on thursdays and well it's a challenge the first resurface trying to get it right! It's so frustrating because no one really taught me about the blade of the Zamboni, I was told never to touch it. So My boss gave me a little lesson. They're gonna change it next Thursday when I'm at work too so I have to do it on my own...I'm scared.

I was target practice for jerk faced hockey boys at the rink yesterday ...I just ignored him. He's stupid and immature. He really needs to grow up.

I still haven't figured out who the hunk of man candy was who said hi to me at the rink on Tuesday...So frustrating!


So i got this adorable dress and wore it last year to the spring dance, and well i tied it on again this fall in late september/early october and after 20 min I couldn't get the damn thing to zip up, my boobs were officially too big! I was so mad. So i've been working on my eating habits and making sure I was moving around more. I tried it on last night and it zipped up! So exciting! So now I need an excise to wear the dress hahaha.

I'm getting my skates sharpened this weekend.

I am one month away from Guatemala

Creepily ( yes I know that's not a word) enough I leave for Guatemala one month from today! Holy crap that is ...like well scary!

Classes for next semester

Guatemala ( Jan 2 ( we meet for class ) we leave on the 3rd come back the 11th) Also it continues into 2nd semester
Social Psychology
Small Group Communication
Senior Keystone!

Oh I am dreading May 2nd 2009 11AM ( aka my graduation)

Yeah that's that.

Anyways I would complain about how crappy life is but I'm going to focus on the positive.

-We got more people on the synchro team.
-I've lost 5 and a half pounds according to the scale at home. GO ME!
-A super hot hockey guy said hi to me at the rink yesterday, I was waiting to talk to the coach about having the players not spit in the players boxes because the figure skaters have to walk through there and would prefer not to walk through their spit wads. I was all decked out in my hot pink dress, tights, long sleeved t-shirt and black vest.Oh and to add to the dorkyness my ugg boots which are really needing to be replaced. So the hockey guys were getting off and some guy, who was super cute said hi. I can't remember if I said hi back, I think I did. I was too mezmorized by his man charm. I can't remember if I've even met the guy ......i wish i had turned around and seen what number was on the back of his helmet so i could figure out who he was. Darn!
- I slept late today...should have gotten up at nine like a good girl..but no...i wanted to sleep!

AHAHAHHAhA
