I need to fill my life up with things which are fun!
The only trouble is that fun takes money.
I went into this fall thinking I would be making A LOT more money than I am. It's a little bit frustrating. Right now I don't have any money till Friday and I don't know how I'm going to get through the week. Oh so dramatic. I actually should be getting paid for dance soon here so I shouldn't stress.
Mostly I am just worried about making payments on my Visa...
Oh Visa.
Why.
WHY DID I GET YOU.
And I wish I could say that the money is being spent on frivolous fun things.
Sadly it's mostly being spent on those ordinary yet necessary things in life. Lame.
You never realized how much parking and gas costs until you have to invest in them. If I lived closer to the city I would happily take transit. Well, maybe not happily. Winter sucks.
Luckily though my paycheck is coming just in time for Halloween!
So I will be able to go out and have one last good time before buckling down even harder for a little while.
Yay!

Friends?
People are huge jerks.
They are jerks for being jerks.
And they are jerks for going along with the jerks.
Have fun with the jerks.

I like school but...
Sometimes I wish I could just take classes for fun.
Thats something I'd never picture myself saying.
But it's true!
Theatre History for instance, was admittedly one of my favourite classes.
But actually having to be tested on everything you've retained from a course now seems so disheartening. I want to learn but I don't want to be evaluated.
"Then Read a Book."
I like listening to people talk. I lose interests in educational books very easily. For the most part anyways.
Right now I'm reading up on (what I think is) the history of Atari Gaming systems and I'm not even sure what I should be remembering.
I've notice that sometimes books give you the names of things without explaining what they are, assuming their reader will understand. Because clearly if they are reading the book they have some interest and background in the subject. So by this logic I should know what a P-10 is and so on.
But I don't!
I don't speak geek. I don't even think a P-10 IS anything but it might as well be.
Something about classic text based video games...
I sit in this Art class and take pages of notes which turn out to be invalid information when if comes to a quiz after everything is said and done.
Sigh.
Why can't I just go to class, soak up the information like a sponge and feel more informed at the end of two hours. Why must we need grades to establish weather or not my obsessive note taking was worth while or not.
Because honestly, what am I going to use The History of Video Games for?

Red Carpet
I hate watching award shows like the Emmys or the Academy Awards.
Because all I can think of is how much hate and envy I have for these successful people being celebrated in their pretty dresses and tuxedos.
A party for people who's lives are already a party.
As if it wasn't enough that they are being paid millions and are loved from nation to nation.
We have to give them awards.

Carrie Said So.
“As we drive along this road called life, occasionally a gal will find herself a little lost. And when that happens, I guess she has to let go of the coulda, shoulda, woulda, buckle up and just keep going.”

Risen from the Depths!
Goodness Galaxies, it's been a long time since I posted anything.
Probably because my life isn't actually all that interesting (lie) as of late.
Vegas was fun. But that feels so old now I don't really want to go over it.
If you are on my Facebook then you probably saw most if not all of the pictures from the trip as I updated them with ferocious regularity!
Currently I am sitting in my bed with a spray tan I'm not entirely sure is there.
I did one last night.
USUALLY by morning I'm a bronzed God but this morning is not showing dramatic results.
AT ALL.
This could be because I haven't been tanning in the beds/stand up units for a while...
So my plan is to do so this morning and we shall see if my skin begins to glisten with colour.
Who knows!??
In other frivolous news I'm planning on lightening my hair for the first time since I was possibly 13-14 years old. This could either be a very good idea or a very bad idea (as most ideas are) so I will have to keep you updated and on the edge of your seats with news on that.
I owe the University of Calgary $29. 94.
And until this stupid amount of money is paid I can't register for my classes.
I had everything paid off but in the amount of time it took for them to actually ACKNOWLEDGE this they decided to charge me some more interest for shits and giggles.
And so now I owe them $29.94 because THEY were stupid.
Thanks University! I can't register because of your stupidity!
So on my tanning adventures today I need to stop by and demand that they take my money.
Summer is ending so quickly.
I wish I could be like a goose and go somewhere warm for the winter.
