Afterthoughts...
forgot the bonus.....
guess this would be 11 then....
Never make someone a priority, when they only consider you an option...
Another year...
So i must've grown a little wiser rite? damn, i sure hope so... let's see, another year, and wat have i learned.....
- Becareful what you wish for, it might just come true, but not in the way you'd expect...
- Things are always easier said than done, but it gets easier if you actually attempt to do it...
- You are directionless without a goal... and lost without determination...
- A smile goes a long way, it's cheesy, but true... you'd be amazed how many people smile back...
- What doesn't kill you makes you stronger... alright, emotionally speaking anyways....
- Never expect anything more than what you had planned yourself... not as easily disappointed that way...
- Friends who are there for you in your darkest hours are friends for life...
- Don't wait around for fate to make decisions for you, but don't be blind to signs and hints toward a direction...
- Do not be afraid to let go, you could just be anchoring yourself down...
- Never say or do anything to spite someone, both parties end up hurt at the end... but what was said is said and what was done is done, best to move on and not look back...
okie, that's like the top 10... there's tons more, but i'm pretty beat... it's been a long birthday, lol! but anyways, I hope to see ppl Fri. nite! Party Party Party!

yarn/knitting stuff stores
So someone asked me if there were stores that sell just knitting stuff... sillie question, of course there is! well, first off if you want some easy places to find general knitting or crocheting supplies you could try Beverly's or Joann's... but for more specific stuff or a larger selection of yarn there's a a couple of stores I suggest in SF... one is Imagiknit, it's 3897 18th St., right off of Dolores, cross street Sanchez. you can also check out their site here. Another one in sf is Artfibers on 124 Sutter St. just past Kearny, it's a little hard to find cuz it's on the second floor of this building and the place is a bit smaller but has a comfy feel to it, although the yarn is a bit pricier it's still fun to walk around and feel all the different kinda yarns... here's their site.
Those are the only 2 I've been to... you can of course do a search in the yellow pages or something for more stores...
There's like one store I've been to in SC, but if anyone's interested, it's a pretty interesting store. It's called The Golden Fleece and is at 303 Potrero St. in SC, kinda off River St., they have a site too, here.
Also there's a bunch of online stores that are cool too, like the Yarn Market but I think it's always more fun to actually go to a store and play with all the yarn yourself... =P
p.s. Julie told me no one's emailed her yet.... damn it Julie, ur not supposed to tell me that!
Wishlist
okie, so if you haven't noticed yet, I've started my birthday wishlist, lol! It was Julie's idea that I make a fat list so ppl can see what I'd want and stuff. So she agreed to be the one to handle the emails, so if you wanna get me a little something for my b-day, just email or im Julie and let her know what you'd wanna get, and she'll either give you the go, or let you know someone has picked that... okie dokie,
so If you click on Jules under the tagboard where Julie tagged, it'll link u to her email.... and I'll say it again for her, please don't spam!
Halloween Weekend
So this Halloween was completely more fun than last Halloween... Went clubbin both Fri. nite and Sat. nite (even tho actual Halloween Day was on Sun.) It was great to go out, party and just blow off some steam, since it's been such a long week, not to mention a long month, just lots of craziness nobody ever needs, but everyone always gets becuz that's life.
but anyways, Fri. nite was alrite, but I don't think I'd go to the Glass Kat again, lol! and I couldn't go home when I wanted to cuz I didn't drive (no Derrick, it's not your fault, but I'm gonna blame you anyways!:p) I went with Derrick and his friends, so his friend Vic drove, but after the party ended they had to meet up with friends at IHOP... yeah.... Anyways, Sat. nite was hella fun! Went with Linda, Mike and Connie, I drove (thank god), but I felt bad that everyone waited in line forever (sorry Linda!), but I think we all had a blast! I can't disclose too much, kinda like wat they say about Vegas *wink wink*... but I'll tell u this, the DNA Lounge is off da hook! ;p
Okay, Okay
Alrite, so the radiologist thought the Doc. was being a little overtly cautious about the dark area in the x-rays. So yeah, she doesn't think I have pnemonia, but the Doc. said I should go ahead and finish up the anti-biotics... better to be safe than sorry I guess... He did hear something in my lung tho... weird... but when I talked to the Doc. I forgot to ask for my x-rays back! ARGH! That's what I get for being all spacey, even more so while I'm sick =P Bleck! I had all these questions to ask him to, but I spaced out while waiting to speak with him and yeah, completely forgot... DARN! I want my X-rays!!! *sigh* guess I can go ask for them some other time, I feel like I've been at the clinic way too many times, I was just there today to get a note to show my profesors, they'll probably start to know my name! they'll be like, "Oh, it's that girl again, what does she want NOW?" =P oh well, you gotta do watcha gotta do...
anyways, goin home this Fri. so anyone in SF better hope I dun get ya sick! Muhahahahahahaha!!! (the nurse at the clinic wrote me a note that said no class while ill and contagious!) Julie says I should wear a mask, like the ones they wore in China when every was gettin SARS. Heeeell NO I ain't wearin no mask! shoo...
So yeah, who's up for clubbin this Fri. and Sat. nite??? C'mon ppl it's Halloween! Not sure what I'll be yet, but I'll figure it out. Just hit me up if ya wanna go clubbin, 21 and up is a plus, but we could go Fri. if not, lol! Gotta blow off steam ppl! It's been a long ass month! gonna be a good weekend to dance the nite away (drinks optional)!
What does a perfect lung sound like?
So, no mini-project, as I just got sicker by Thurs. and worse on Fri. It was semi-manageable over the weekend, but I found it hard to breathe during any physical activity (ie. moving). I got just a little rest but I thought I'd be getting better by this week, but since I wasn't, on Tues. I went to the clinic to see if maybe they could tell me what's wrong with me. After spending over 2 hours there, I got some good news and some bad news. Good news is I gotta X-ray! (iono, I always thought it was cool to get an X-ray done, I wonder if I can get a copy of them...) Bad news is, Doctor thinks I have pnemonia. He had sent me to get an X-ray done cuz he didn't think my right lung sounded perfect (which got me wondering, What does a perfect lung sound like?) so after lookin over a couple x-rays of my lungs, he said it doesn't look scary but that there's a small dark area that looks like an infection. Lovely, an infection, in my lungs, it just couldn't have been somewhere EXTERNAL, I thought. Anyways, he said he'd run it over with the radiologist to make sure and call me the next day, but until then he was gonna treat me for the time being, for pneomonia. So I'm on anti-biotics, and he also prescribed me some decongestant stuff to clear up my sinuses. Yeah, it's a lotta meds, bleck! and they're these pretty big pills that you gotta chug down with hella water... *gag*
So I haven't heard back from the Doc. yet, and I'm still coughing, still stuffy, I don't think the decongestant stuff works that well, I swore the Doc. wrote Crantex on the prescription slip, but the pharmacy gave me Ami-Tex with (generic for Crantex) written next to it in parentheses... I know they're all supposed to work the same, but yeah, weird...
and they weren't cheap either! 55 bucks for the anti-biotics and 29 bucks for Ami-tex... *sigh* on top of that, I'm gonna be charged for the X-rays too... wonder how much that'll all total to... welps, it's all being charged to my student account, guess we'll see soon enough...
On another note, we've officially moved-in to our new place! We (Fay, Jen and I) finished moving everything over at like 2am in the morn (Sun./Mon.), lol! well we were pretty much done at like 8pm, but there were some last few items here and there, plus we had to help Fay clean the other place... but yeah, soon as I install the programs for my digi cam, I'll upload pics of the place, as messy as it is rite now cuz I still haven't organized all my crap yet...
More on this next time...
Back in Service
So I finally fixed my comp, all by myself, thank you very much! boi was it a pain to replace the hard drive! stupid laptop parts! anyways, that was like almost 2 weeks ago, lol! yeah I had 2 midterms in the past 2 days... aint life grand? so I was pretty much cramming for those most of last week and all weekend and yesterday (or monday)... but yeah, it's been a long month.... or a long beginning of the school year rather... long days, long nites... and I feel like I've been surrounded by a lot of grief.... not, "good grief!" kinda grief, but like pain and suffering kinda grief... crying your eyes out, doubt, regret, heartache, remorse and mourning kinda grief... and suddenly I find myself wishing I don't always wish for a better life... because if it meant that everyone else around me would be suffering... then I couldn't stand not suffering with them... never wish you were better off I guess, because it just means that someone else out there is suffering more than you are... *sigh* to suffer is to build character... to suffer is to live... to suffer is to feel, to know you really are alive... and so we live on... as we should... because what doesn't destroy us, makes us stronger...
ps. I'm still working on re-installing stuff for downloading and uploading pics and also I haven't knitted anything since I moved back to SC, so hopefully after the move this weekend, I'll be posting up some mini-projects...
Bitch to the 1st Degree
After physics class today, I started to have a headache as I realized that our first midterm is only a week from now. Still a bit exhausted from staying up late doing the damn physics homework the nite before, I sat down on the bench at the shuttle stop to rest and wait for the core shuttle. Two seconds later, two sorority girls walk over to wait for the same shuttle and since sorority girls like to talk overtly loud so the whole world can hear they're conversation, this is what I heard....
Sorority Girl#1 (on the phone with her boyfriend): What?.... I'm at the THIMAN BUS STOP... RIGHT BEHIND THIMAN!.... ok, bye.....yeah, bye! (hangs up)
Sorority Girl#2: What's Jessica's last name?
Sorority Girl #1: Poon.
Sorority Girl#2: Poo?
Sorority Girl#1: no, POON, P-O-O-N, Poon.
Sorority Girl#2: *laughs* oh, I thought you said Poo, I put her on my Etc. list (she was adding to her cell's phonebook).
Sorority Girl#1: Etc.?
Sorority Girl#2: yeah, cuz she's not my friend and she's not in K.D.Phi... so Etc....
Sorority Girl#1's phone rings again: WHAT?!... yeah, the Thiman core shuttle stop, yeah....... why?....What, just because you said so I have to?.... no, I don't want to go.... I don't want to eat.... no, I can't eat after 6(pm)(Sorority Girl#2 laughs quietly).... watever, ok, bye!.... YES, I'm at THIMAN!... wat?, ok, bye!...BYE! (hangs up)... (turns to Sorority Girl#2) I bought Pete a break-up gift...
Sorority Girl#2: A break-up gift? What's that? (this is when my headache kicked in again)
Sorority Girl#1: you know, a "break-up" gift...*mumbling*
Sorority Girl#2: Here comes Pete... (Sorority Girl#1 doesn't notice, keeps talking, so Sorority Girl#2 shouts) HI PETE!
Pete walks over to them.
Pete: After 6 huh?
At this point I was about to just get up and walk before I exploded.
Ladies and Gentlemen, this is what we call a Bitch to the 1st Degree.... someone who does not care if they hurt someone else as long as they are happy themselves....
I hate people like that, I hate'em, I just do.... I do...
