So firstly, I thought I should update this seeing as my life is about to change in a big way again. I'm moving to Chicago in two weeks. I'm actually getting kind of nervous now too. I mean, i'm ready for it, I just want everything to fall into place as soon as possible, and not the day before I get there. Right now it looks like that later of the two.
I've been going down to worcester trying to meet up and say goodbye to some friends. I think i'll be able to make another trip down this weekend or the next. my fucking mother is devastated. I am not looking forward to that goodbye. especially considering i'm not coming home for xmas this year. I'm spending it with Jayson, for once.
I had a very strange night yesterday. I have excellent will power though, so that proved helpful.
I was just looking back at old entries. I feel so annoying after reading some really old ones. Just fucking spouting shit out all the time. Meh.
Anyway, I'm really hoping that chicago will have in store what i'm looking for. I need something more from life right now that what i have here. I need jayson back too. I miss that fucker.
goooooodnites!

i'm working, but i'm not making enough money. who does?
i'm constantly tired, or bored to the point where i don't want to do anything.
i play animal crossing everyday. and i'm okay with that.
but other video games are a chore.
the extra sunshine makes me happy.
i want to hug neil for about, 48 minutes.
but i'll just send him something in the mail.
i always buy clothes that i eventually hate 3 days later.
i sort of hated nip/tuck this season.

So we made it here, safe n' sound, cha'll. Arrived in Somerville on the 5th of December. It's been a rough 3 months though. Jayson and I have had a lot of trouble getting jobs and finding sources of income. Finally something gave though, and now i'm working at Derricks salon- Judy Jetson. I'm enjoying it, but i'm still in my first week so definitely getting over the awkward new job/new people phase. I'm looking to get part-time work at Anthropologie too. I friggen love that store. Did i mention i get free haircuts and very much discounted spa services?? *drool*
Jaysons doing a lot of freelance stuff. Working with a guy in New York making some sweet baaaank. But it's a lot of work. Today he had an interview to work at a place where he'd be testing out bugs and defects in video games. ASS! What a sweet job. I hope he gets it. He's so hardworking and really deserves the opportunity. He's been so patient and good about this whole move here. Love that shitbag.
Him and I are actually coming on our 2 year soon. Pretty ridic. [ March 17th for you other fucking lushes that meet people on the one day of the year where about 70% of the population is drunk! ] It's a funny story when people ask how we met.
Anyway, I think my car needs some work done it. The mufflers loud and well, i need an oil change and new struts. meh. For those of you who listen to Junior Senior... "I don't DO that kind of thang!"
I attended a fashion meet-up here in Boston. It was pretty great. A lot of people came and it was cool to network and stuff. There's another one this month and I can't wait. Got a sewing machine for christmas so i'm trying to find reason to put that thang to work. I've been making stuffed animals in the meantime. I don't have any pattern making paper so... so much for making clothes. Have a lot of art work in the making. It's just the finishing touches, y'know?
Alright, this a good enough update for now.
I should be in Worcester sometime late next week, look me up!!

A quick update on here should pass some time, do me some goooood.
First, I want to start out with something that happened the other night. Pretty hilarious. Basically I had too many gin and grapefruits. I ended up calling some people and hitting up the facebook page. The phone calls went well- talked with Nick Miller and Derrick. Lovely people for sure. It was when I was on facebook where things got obnoxious. I haven't talked to this kid Brian Gnecco for a few years, and so I add him, and then I proceed to write "generations of gorgeous" on his page and thats it. I have no fucking idea what that means, but yeah! I totally said it. He was entirely weirded out and frankly, I don't blame him. God i'm so profound.
Also, this just in- Jayson and I are moving to Massachusetts. Portland hasn't exactly worked out for us. He can't find work, I can't find work- so we're outtie. Although my internship went smashingly, they weren't out to hire afterwards so I had to give that hope up. We leave November 28th and I couldn't be more excited. Just nervous about the Corolla making it back safe and sound. We'll be stopping in Dirty Detroit (!!!!!) on the way back, so that'll be fun. See his family and whatnot.
I've been working on a few illustrations. Haven't completed them so I won't post them yet. I guess if you'd want to see them, I wouldn't post here anyway. Try facebook. Jayson and I have been doing well. Our relationship started to suck because of all this indifference about Portland. We both hated it and started to take it out on one another. Luckily with the move, spirits have risen and our hope is intact. Loves him.
Moms good. Mels good. It's her birthday on Thursday. Tomb Raider Underworld is coming out tomorrow and i'm basically throwing myself a party for it. I'm really missing everyone, I can't wait for Xmas and all the parties and catching up. My girl Alisha had her baby and i'm so proud of her. She named her Tatiana Rene Semiday. *blushes* so flattered.
Alright, so this is my update.
Got nuthin' but love.

Jeez,
I'm at work. I'm bored. I'm supposed to be promoting this gingerbread contest-GAYNESS. But I can't bring myself to do it. It's like i'm too proud, or something. I asked some people already and it sort of backfired. This one girl was blatently rude and blurted out, "ahhh, no thankyou". I guess you can't be rude when you say no thankyou? Perhpas it was her tone that suggested otherwise. I'm sort of having a bad day. I don't want a thing to do with Jayson, I'm at the school from 9-9pm, and I keep fucking up at work. First with the fruit labels, and then the yelling at for something that wasn't my fault. Something I was told to do. Not even worth getting into, really.
I've had my nose in this Zelda game that just came out for the Nintendo DS. I'm the type of person that likes to play a game, and beat it as fast I can. So naturally I took this approach with Zelda. It's Jaysons game thing, and he's been generous enough to let me use it and take it to school and whatnot. But now it seems that I'm playing too much?? We layed down for bed, I haden't seen him all day, and in a childish/cute way I asked if he'd give me affection. He refused. Stating I should've been the one showing affection when he got home. That if I stopped playing that game maybe there would've been time. I told him I wasn't asking for much and that I just missed him. I wasn't avoiding him playing that game, I was just having fun. He threw it back in my face saying he was just tired, and wanted to sleep. I guess 5 deuces of LakePort'll do it. Jerk off. We had an agreement that he wouldn't drink on the weekdays. We fight when we drink. It doesn't seem he's willing to part with his precious rotton oats and rye. Whatever.
I'm coming home soon anyhow. Time apart is much needed. Moving in together is taking it's toll. We both weren't ready, but the situation was dire and if I wanted to stay in school and with him, it was our only option. I owe him money because my loan hasn't come in. So thats another constant lingering over us. I hate it. I just want my friends from home. I want my surroundings, my family.. I need to start hanging out with people from here more. I sort of isolate myself on the weekends, just because it's easier. And it's cold out now, so that promotes laziness throughout.
Alright, I guess I should wrap this up.
take care to all who read this.
kick it,
Rene

It's April 23rd and I've been to the beach twice already. I think thats more than anyone in Massachusetts can say, and I live in Canada. I have a sweet sunburn on my face, shoulders, chest and arms. I also have sweet pictures.
The weather here is warming up, and it's marvelous. Just in time, too. I was turning into a homebody. Waiting outside in lines for anything sucked. I froze. I complained. All that good stuff.
Schools going well. I haven't missed any classes lately. You'd think having a boyfriend would somewhat distract me from my studies. It has in the past, but Jayson actually helps me. I get ideas off him, and vice versa. He's a fantastic artist, and the way he draws...? Don't even get me started.
Derrick has planned another trip up here in May. AAHH!
Many, many good bands are having shows here in May, too.
I'm not sure the next time I'll be heading home. Probably July or something. After my trip to Vegas. Which I'm not sure I've discussed- I'm going VEGAS! Chatti, Derrick, Richard and myself. For 5 days, I think. We're staying at some crazy hotel, and I have plans of marrying Derrick secretly.
DON'T TELL ANYONE!
Okay, so in conclusion-
I'm extra happy in Toronto, still.
Jayson and I are fantazzzmal.
Schools good.
and the pot here is what us Americans hype it up to be.
friends forever,
RENE

As my first semester comes to a close, I thought it wise to update this thing.
I moved here in January. I was nervous, excited, worried, happy... you name it. Two weeks into my stay, Melanie moved back to the states. I entirely understood, she's my blood, she was unhappy. I kept my focus on my studies and managed to maintain a healthy social life. I've made some great friends up here- Danella being my closest. She's from Alberta, and we've got a ton in common. I go out a lot with her, but Saul comes, so does Louis, Carlos, Katherine, Lisa, Steven.. it's a lot of fun. Drew is a good friend too. He loves the dope and makes me laugh.
As far as my looooove life goes, I've met some boys. One Canadian, and two from the states. The Canadian didn't work out- far too clingy. The other two are great. One's kind of older, but very laid back, and i love that. And I think the remaining guy is just perfect. I'm not trying to get a boyfriend out here, but meeting people is fun none-the-less. Besides, who doesn't like company?
School is great. I love the building, I love what I'm learning, and I'm meeting great people there. It's kind of unfortunate though- the stigma that comes along with being a fashion student isn't exactly top notch. Everyone thinks we're snobs! Granted many girls are, i'm not! And it's silly for people to jump to those types of assumptions about people based on their choice of program. Anyway...
Derrick came up for a short visit this past week. We went out to Revival and dancccced. It was a late night because his flight came in at 9. But we made it out and had a good time. I took him shopping, we saw 300, and I tried my very hardest to get him to move up here. He loves it, so I figured why not.
I'll be returning home in a week. I'm absolutely pumped to see everyone. The ride home will be that of a lonely one, and a long one- but very much worth it. I'll be returning to Toronto on the 29th though. I've got tickets to see The Decemberists the following day. I have an extra ticket if anyone wants to make the trip up to Buffalo. It's only a 7.5 hour drive from Worcester.. c'mon
Okay, so I'll be seeing some of you shortly.
Lets hope the Corolla makes the trip.
Happy St. Patricks Day !

I'm making a come back on this shit. Besides, I sort of have a lot of time on my hands until class starts..
So yes. Melanie and I have moved to Toronto. First I'll discuss leaving Mass though. One word: TERRIBLE! I was doing really well until my last night. Mel and I went to Erins for dinner- Michelle, Cristina and Joe were there too. Ms Budness made some bomb ass lasagna, and naturally Erin drank her wine. :] I was sort of like, numb to everything. Although I was a table with four other people, I felt sooo much farther way. Weirdest feeling ever. We took some pictures and said our goodbyes and walked out the door. I could hear Erin and Cristina.. "I'm gonna miss them..." :[ I didn't cry, but was more in awe of the fact that yeah, those are some solid friends. Go us.
Next we dropped Meesh off, and thats when I lost it. I hugged her and said I would see her later and that she was my gurl! She nodded, not saying anything- her eyes welling. She hugged Mel and then turned around again before she went into her house and waved. UGHHHHH. It was TOOOO sad for me. I cried on the way home, and then smoked myself fucking retarded so I wouldn't think too much. Alisha came over and visited while I did some last minute packing. She left, and we headed to Chatti's.
And pain-in-the-ass Pat wouldn't stop fucking calling me. You'd think when someone didn't pick up their phone the first time you called- they still wouldn't the 7 times after that.
Anyway, back to the move. I had to drive this huge ass UHAUL, with my car in tow 8 hours to Canada. At the border they didn't even fucking check my cargo, or anything. I could've brought all the illegal stuff I wanted. I had mini in the front and she didn't even ask for her papers. I'm not sure they even saw one another. Meh. It was windy as fuck and derrick and I would flip out whenever we had to go over a bridge. *laughs* So funny.
We got to the place, unloaded the truck, then dropped it off to wherever it had to go. I kind of remember why i stopped doing this livejournal. I hate typing a lot.
Long story short:
Derrick, Chatti, Richard, Melanie and myself-
got the house arranged
went out to crazy lezbo/gay bars
gots hammsered
went shopping
the list goes on.
but ah.. yeah. Degrassi is on. SO PEACE!

Things are good.
Mom's moved into a studio apartment and she's never been happier.
Work's been better though. Some drama- ridiculous petty overdramatized drama arose, but it's been dealt with.
I'm not going to Europe anymore. I can't afford it.
I'm trying to go to college tomorrow.
I think I want to do something in the science field. Astronomy?
My heart's interesting these days. Something's happening.
I cannot wait until winter break so everyones home.
I bought a sick jacket and I love it.
I really dont like snow
aparently I have bad movie taste.
and, winamp history is entirely unnecessary.

i'm getting legitamately pissed at Jason from Laguna Beach.. and this is dumb because I used to make fun of people who watched that show, and here I find myself hooked and emotionally involved. Seriously though, if I ever come accross a guy like Jason- I would probably punch him. And if I ever came accross a girl like Jessica, I'd slap the shit out of her ugly face, because she's the most pathetic person ever. LC better not go back out with him, or she's as big a SUCKAH as the rest of em'.
with that aside,
I worked my ass off today, and even more so last night. The concert was fucking great. The Black Eyed Peas were awesome, given their half hour set and Gwen was ill. We took a limo there and managed to get hammered by the time we rolled up to bahston. The ride home was fun too. When we got to Richards I drove to CVS, set my Christmas endcap, made my greeting card poster and peaced out at 3am. I had a 7:30AM conference call this morning... which I was laaaate for.
Overal though, I guess things are okay. To make things perfect I'd prefer:
a better car
a better paying job thats easier than mine
an appartment with my shitty
a boyfriend, or potiental crush at least. 'cause I have none
more sleep
less of an appetite
mini peanut to sleep with me and not chatti
to see more of my sist
to attend college
CHIRS FERRIS giving me my shit back, ass.
and having nice nails that dont get fucked up at work.
oh theres more, but i'd prefer not to sit here and type
i'm going to read the internet,
BYE.

I'm obsessed with grouphug.us and i make confessions now daily..
it's like livejournal, but without comments and everythings totally annonomous.
You can really let loose and say whatever. But I bet/hope some of the stuff on there is bullshit.
I think people confessing things annonmously on the internet is okay.
I think people confessing things to people face to face is a bad idea.
skeletons can stay in my closet..
I choose to not let them eat me up inside.
I'm a champion and i'm going to see Gwen and the Black Eyed Peas tomorrow.
Wish me good times.
thanks

Oh HI fall!
It's great outside. Honestly, I love it. Keene was really nice this weekend. I went up there to visit Melanie. We had ourselves a grand ol' time, didn't we Mel... She threw this big party and I met a bunch of her friends and got retarded- pretty much. But so did she *laughs*, SO BAD. Ohhhhhh Meelllllllll.
I'm starting to hate the photolab. Everything about it. I hate how no one knows how to run it. I hate how I want to teach people, but there's never any time. I hate how it's fucking, ONE HOUR photo. Why couldn't it be two hour photo, or three, or four? And then today I find out Mike got another raise for going back into Photo, and I sort of snapped. I called my regional manager, leaving him this wicked irate message about how I need to talk to him, and that it's important. He calls back, OF COURSE, when I'm dealing with this grumpy old guy. Apparently he couldn't talk later, so I have to wait until tomorrow now. Frankly, I'm demanding a pay increase. I want 10 and thats final. I'm gonna try 10.50, but we'll see where that goes..
I fucking WORK HARD ENOUGH.
Anyway-
I brought mini peanut to the vet today, and he's got an upper viral infecton. He's got eye drops and ointment and all types of medicine now. Even worm medicine. Grosscity.com, thats what that is. The vet said that some of these worms will even pass through him, meaning....
They're gonna be in the kitty litter box, and when I change it, i'm going to fliiiiip.
straight up.
Oh, and I finally told my mom that I dont want to get an apartment with her. She took it better that I thought, which is good because once again my moms this fragile mess where all it takes is one word, and she'll go off the deep end.
It's fucking concert month kids. Decemberists on Saturday, then Deathcab, then Gwen. It's also the beginning of the month, so all my bills are due.
ill na na.
Alright, this cat needs to chill. It's fucking midnight and he's hyper as heelllllll.
Bye!

I bought Britney Spears' new perfume. It's called Fantasy, or something. But shit, it smells so good. I spent fifty dollars on it, so it best. I need to get some new jeans too. I dont have any that I like. I'm so fucking picky when it comes to pants. I dont know why, either.
Works good.
Life's decent.
I'm a little confused, but I'm sure eveything will get sorted out.
I work all the time yet I dont have any money. That'll change soon though- i'm gonna start following a budget.
My moms fucking crazy and I dont want much to do with her anymore
My sister isn't here, or there or anywhere.
Things would be easier if I didn't have to fucking fix other peoples mistakes.
And if certain someone's would get off my goddamn back.
I dont have to answer to you, and yes.. it's true. You're fucking suffocating. Let me live my life the way I want, without having to worry about you, what your thinking and how you're feeling.
Let me enjoy my last year of being a teenager
I've been robbed of my youth enough, wouldn't you say?
just ranting,
dont mind me. this doens't apply to anyone who reads this. whoever that is.

So I have a car now- and it's great. I've run into a few problems already but I got this 90 warranty with the dealership, so it's cool. It's got amazing gas mileage too.. VERY KEY.
Works going really good. I'm getting recognized for my hard work, finally. I think my district and regional manangers want to do me. On the conference call my name was brought up a lot, and today I was told to take pictures of an endcap I had made for our entire district to copy. *beams* I'm so exctied. And not beaming boob wise, either.
I need to go to sleep though, seroiusly. I have to be at cvs tomorrow around 8, maybe a little earlier. But before I go, I dyed my hair again. It's this red_ish burgandy color. Looks alright, I think.
not too much to update about,
I just keep this thing for my friends list, primarily.
