i have tinea versicolour. i get to put selsun blue shampoo on my chest for 30 minutes a day. it is minty-smelling, green, and burns. it's actually kind of fun.
emily not coming back for summer. sad. bored.
cholesterol quite high - most of the lipids or whatever actually increased since last october, when i had the initial bloodwork. but i've lost weight. i don't get it. gonna start exercising more and trying to eat better. or at least less bad stuff. i feel like i've been doing this forever but there's always more i can do i guess.
gonna take some gay class at the workforce center to help me get a job. fuuuck.
i like my tumblr a lot...

class is done. i don't know how i did really, i got a terrible cold and missed the last class (yesterday). i couldn't have missed much as we took the final test during the class before that, but hm.
the weather has gotten lovely as well. i hate being stuck inside hacking my guts up. i also feel supremely ugly. grrrrmpphhhh. losing weight though. lalala.

i was just on the receiving end of a goodnight ballad over the phone that went something like, "goodnight claire, have sweet dreams, and think of me while you masturbaaaate." aaaahahahaha.
my paper turned out well despite being substantially too short. curious to see what kind of grade i'll get. i was expecting a c or even a d on my hinduism test (as usual, i felt like i wound up studying the wrong questions), but got a b-minus *pleased*. now there is only one chapter and test left - buddhism. which is pretty interesting and i am already somewhat familiar with (thankyou philosophy class that i dropped), wup.

"Had she ever made promises to a faithless reflection in the mirror? Had she ever cried because she hated someone so much? Had she ever craved betrayal to the point where she pushed the crudest fantasies into reality, coming up with sequences that she and nobody else could read, moving the game as you play it? Could she locate the moment she went dead inside? Does she remember the year it took to become that way? The fades, the dissolves, the rewritten scenes, all the things you wipe away—I now want to explain all these things to her but I know I never will, the most important one being: I never liked anyone and I'm afraid of people."

And American spelling. For potential job. Go me! (Don't expect this to last. I'm really just bored.)
Today I finally got my resume, transcript and application turned in. (I did not go to class. I am bad. But right now this job is the most important thing to me.) If you do so, feel free to pray for me. :p There was a website or an email that gave a date indicating exactly WHEN I will find out if I got in or not (or at least got an interview), but I seem to have misplaced it. Guess I'll just have to wait.
Even if this thing falls through (please, please don't), I think I kind of want to purchase an ugly pantsuit. Like Scully wore in early X-Files. I must return to Savers soon - the last trip was less than successful. One orange and white skirt that sits too high; on the waist as opposed to the hips. But I continue to lose weight, so maybe that will change eventually.
EEEEEEEEEH...
Picture of me looking nice. Or at least nicer than I looked in the picture from Saturday morning.
I love sallygirl brand eyeshadow. Cheap and lovely.
Ooh and I saw Vanessa last night for the first time in ages. She had some dude-friend with her. He didn't talk much but I guess he was cool. He just sort of sat there while we hung out in my room and caught up on things.
...I kind of hate to include this because I look like week-old dog shit. And yes, I totally slept in the same purple shirt I wore in the previous day's picture. But it makes me smile anyway. Behold, my documentation of the arrival of my very first Netflix DVD (with my real name on it, anyway) - Californication, Season 2, Disc 1. Hellz yeah.
I finished it in one evening, of course. Now I have to wait more. Poop. After I have finished Californication (or at least the first three seasons, 4 is not yet available. But I think it's on demand), I shall be receiving, in order:
Visitor Q
Cannibal Holocaust
Black Sheep
Pink Flamingos
Female Trouble
Divine Trash
Hellevator: The Bottled Fools
Most of those I have wanted to see for quite some time (except for Pink Flamingos) but have been unable to locate. I fucking love Netflix, yes I do.
This entry has gotten a bit silly. I will go practice typing elsewhere. Or maybe watch more X-Files.

sooo there is a top-secret opportunity for me and 27 others to train to be a medical transcriptionist (like my mom). it's paid training, and lasts for four months. afterwards i would be obligated to work for the clinic for 2 years, but since college is looking less and less...whatever, i'm gonna give it a go. i just hope i actually get into the class. i really need something like this. and even if i hate it, i would be making good money.
mom made pork ribs tonight since drew came over to watch survivor (ugh) with her. normally i would be pumped but she used the wrong rub so they were too spicy. (and i thought i had gotten used to spice eating at sovann's.) anyway, everyone who's had ribs knows how messy they are. after we ate, mom went to set up their show and i asked drew to help me do the dishes. he totally didn't so i'm a bit irked at him.
and i just found a bit of bbq sauce ON MY ARM. how does this happen.
but it's alright; i have some free computer games thanks to being an unwitting member of bigfishgames.com for the past five months. hahaha.

some people just don't shut the fuck up until you agree with them. i am really tired of people (actually a specific person, but not the same person to inspire this entry) not giving a damn about MY opinion, and thinking that everything they say is 100% true fact.
went back to class today. it was awwwwright. and i got an A on the christianity test i took before the break. the snow is almost gone and although today was cloudy, it's warm enough to put away the winter coats. i actually walked all the way to gopher's with madeline on friday. and we took the LONG way (meaning we went kind of all over the place for a while before actually deciding to go all the way there).
i am watching ichi the killer tonight. it's been so long since i've seen it, but i love it :)

the good:
*i feel no need to go to class tomorrow (i think i did ok on my test). my mother agrees. discovered there actually are no classes tomorrow.
*matt and trey were on the daily show tonight talking about their book of mormon broadway show.
the bad:
*i will most definitely never have the pleasure of seeing said show
*i killed a baby centipede tonight (last year they didn't start popping up until eastertime)
and, most importantly,
*brian called me and told me sovann is in the hospital. something kidney-related supposedly. she should be getting out tomorrow or saturday so hopefully that means it is not immediately life-threatening. :/
so yeah. i will be going round there tomorrow, hopefully she'll be home then. need to start laying out stickytraps for the 'pedes. it is not pretty when i get drunk, freaked out, and spray excessive amounts of insecticide around the perimeters of my room and the bathroom. this will probably happen anyway though. it's gonna be a long summer, but hopefully not as long as this winter has been.
ruby's funeral is on saturday, in florida. my dad isn't going, at least not yet - him and drew have to go to indiana to drew's old house this weekend to pick up the rest of his stuff and bring it to the new place.

i really feel fine. ron seems to think i'll crack later, but being somewhat prepared for this, at least expecting it, has helped immensely.
i suppose things will carry on as usual. assuming the funeral will be in florida, most of my immediate family and i won't be able to attend which sucks. not that i remember firsthand, but my grandfather did not cope well when betts died. now that he's older, it will probably be worse. my mom said to my father's sister on the phone earlier that perhaps dad will fly down to florida so he can drive back up here with grandpa drew, just so he doesn't have to be alone. assuming he wants to come back at all.
spring break is next week. i didn't realise this until i saw mention of it on facebook earlier today. i'm not all that excited, oddly. it will be nice to be able to sleep all day, but i already do that four days a week. useless, seriously. whatever, i'll feel better after the next test is over (wednesday). as long as i get a b or better, anyway.
pills. i don't want to be up until 4am; must study more tomorrow.

41 birthday messages on facebook so far. i feel mighty popular. not any older, but loved. it is especially nice to hear from people i haven't talked to in ages, like larissa, frances, lynne, and my teacher ryan from roc. emily left something lovely and funny:
"ONE MORE YEAR and then birthdays don't matter anymore. Enjoy the second to last birthday you will ever enjoy. Just have a vivid hallucination about all the trouble we would get in if I was there with you on this specialist of days."
oh, she makes me smile. i want her back.
nothing from daisy yet though. i will be sad if she doesn't say anything :s
sooo i didn't go to class today, no surprise there. but i emailed my teacher to let him know i've been ill. no nausea today (yet), but my throat is a bit blecckkk and i sound like a frog. whatever, it's totally better than throwing up. also pretty exhausted but that's nothing new for me.
thanks to all the sickness, i am down to 224.5 pounds. (that's a total of 9.5 pounds lost since i started trying to lose weight. it is nice to know i can do it if i try.) surely it's mostly water weight though. water weight is a bitch. still looks nice on the scale though.
another message, up to 42 now *cackle*.
my brother doesn't want to get sick, and since lauren is coming tomorrow, we have decided to have the family celebration of my birth anniversary tomorrow instead of today. this will involve presents and whatever food i want for dinner (probably subway or pizza). and a cherry pie from bakers square. oh yes.
i should eat something now though. gurgle. more toast most likely. :$
