time for the confession

i like confessing call me an idiot but i think it is funny...... i write them in my journal.... or i use to when i wrote in it,but here is my confessional.

1. i am in love with my technology. and its i feel cant be healthy. i never leave the house with out my cell phone and ipod. even when i am only destine for a 8 hour shift at work my ipod and cell are tucked safe with in my pockets

2. i have a strange obsession for anything hippy(like you couldnt have guessed) i am an advent shopped of jocies handmade imports. just walking in the store calms my nerves. the smell of incense..... the crystals and the hemp. it is my utopia. i also a strong believer in most of the hippy stuff. like crystals that effect your moods, tarot cards..... these thing fasinate me. if i had been born in another family, and not a member of the church, i would most likely be all in to that stuff..... lucky for you my church keeps me from becoming a walking talking wierdo.

3. i had a huge crush on a 30 year old.ya it lasted about a month..... dont judge,it was only a crush, and to be fair i didnt know he was 30 until the end. anyways he fell for another girl. of course. and i regained my sanity and realized that 18 and 30 is a bit extreme..... 12 years of extreme differences. and so the crush ended.

4. i honestly hate being woken up. i would much rather have to do anything then be woken up. i love my mother very much...... but for the first 16 years of my life she was my personal alarm clock. and every morning she would come in and wake me up. and every morning i had about 5 minutes of true distane for her. it wasnt just her OH NO! cuz for the past 3 years i had another mom waking me up...... and i realized that no matter how much i love my religion, the words scriptures and prey in ten minutes, brought more distane then i ever had for my moms awakenings. and then i moved out and i dont have to be woken up...... except for the moments cody surprises me by getting pulled over by the police with no licence. so the jist of this is waking up cathy= her hating you for a good 5 minutes.

5. i truly hate people with annoying laughs..... i know some of you can think they are funny. but there not. i truly hate when annoying laughs are forced by girls trying to get guys attention. ok like for real, as if that would turn any guy on. maybe make him think your retarded.... or psycotic. but cute? who thought you the birds and the bees hum???? goofy?

6. i am usally a "listener". and there are people that i will always want to listen to. blake, cody and laura are about the only people that i will drop everything to just listen to. other people have picked up on this talent. and they abuse it. its when i get text messages at 12 at nigt on a tuesday night, tat when i get pissed. i will listen and i will give advice...... but it kills me to be nice about it sometimes. i mean come on anyone one that knows me knows i ate being woken up!!!!!

i think thats enough for now......... but there will be more theres always more!

the hagus

ok so first let me apologize to anyone that reads this..... which is most likely no one. my last few post have been over lame. but i was stressed when im stressed i use the most simple of terms to get my point across. some time i think it would be easier just to type. CODY YOUR STUPID! and leave it at that. any ways moving on.
today was the first time i attended friday forum.....for all you non-southern Albertans out there, friday forum is a church class, that happens on friday you pay 2 bucks you get lunch and a spiritual moment. anyway.... so matea basically forced me into going. im glad she did. the food was crappy oh well but the speaker! ok im not going to say i was uplifted at all.
but i never wanted him to stop talking. heres a few reasons.
1 he was rather good looking
2 he had just stepped off a plane from Scotland, and had this amazing Scottish accent that just like serenaded my soul.
3 he was funny, but not the drop a joke thats cheesy funny, the like make fun of people for being dumb funny with out offending. (but lets be really as if a man of such fineness would offend any one!)
so i have falling in love with a Scottish man! lol...... trust me i have no shot, but i can dream. its funny but i kinda just lumped him up there with johnny depp and jacob hoggard.

I guess i can tell you about school. i still love it. i had my first couple of test today and i made some really observations about college.
1 college is alot harder than high school. just because your teacher doesnt talk about it in class doesnt mean it wont show up on an exam.

2 nothing is simple in college, like instead of saying "Class tomorrow will be a test." they say EXAM. it makes it so much heavier. and teachers no their not teachers their professors.

3 people in college are all different..... i dont know what i was expecting.... but im use to everyone being moderately the same, just degreeing in whorishness and coxyness. not here though everyone has a story that is different.
other than a few stressful moments of this week im still in love with college.

i am so glad that the months are going by fast. i so done with living in the house im in, and with the people. i dont mind laura and ve. but i think 5 is to many. i think 4 or 3 or 2 would work but 5, 5 girls is far to many girls to expect to live in Harmony together. it just wont happen. i have this dream of steph actually deciding that she wants to live in lethbridge, and me and her moving in together. i wish thats how it would go but i have this gut feeling it wont. its sad i've lost alot of touch with the foxes since i've left....... i just feel like a burden on them sometimes. but its ok i do have my own family, that has since i've officially been crowned a grown up, stepped up to the plate a lot more.

being single, i thought i'd just touch on this. in my house every time i get a phone call (which is beyond rare) someone goes is it a guy? and i laugh and say hey mom! i honestly was lying in bed last night thinking..... i hope heavenly father doesnt think i can hold out till im like 26 cuz im thinking marriage like by 21..... and let me tell you i dont think i can handle it. that 7 years of aloneness is that even fare?????!!!! but today as i sat glued to this Scottish boy something snapped in my head..... im busy i mean im getting my frist degree in 2 years and then i plan on going to England to get a BA....... that is really busy and it will take up that whole 6 years. so my position on being single has changed thanks to school. i dont think im destine to be in love anytime soon .... so do hold your breath for a invite..... cuz i would like to think im going to be overly smart! lol. what ever it will happen one day.

so this is the events of the week or so..........................

in a new day

its funny how emotions change from day to day. all wit in 1 day my feelings towards Cody have changed.
i started out thinking i was the victim. that i had been wronged. that e didn't love me and tats way e was treating me like this. i hated him. i hated him going back to calgary.
and then it changed.
then i felt it was my fault. i hated me, for telling him the truth. for wanting him to see, so that he could change. i was self fish, i didnt want him to leave.
and then it changed.
now i dont know what to think. i dont. was it wrong for me to want those things? was it wrong for cody to be mad cuz i was going out?
either way it comes down to this.
we were bot wrong. we were both hurt. and we bot reacted wrong.
and so my apologies and his silent treatment. it wont help. it was all a emotion driven mistake.

the night of heart break and new desitions

tonight was a hard night. i wish i could explain it but truly I'm just tired of talking about it...... i do however want to tell you how i feel at this very second. because it is a mix of so many feelings that i don't know what to think.
first I'm full of anger...... anger for how i have been treated by someone i love. he hurts me with out even knowing. no that's a lie. I'm not lieing for him anymore. he knows. he knows that at this very moment its killing me that i didn't drop my whole life for him. and he knows that because it is taking him so long to get here its killing me even more. but he doesn't care. about me. about my feelings. anything. and that is the anger in me. lets call this anger CODY.
Then there's the girly crush side of me. i can explain this one. cuz no one cared to ask about this one. me and Elizabeth went out with Craig tonight. i like him....... and its fun to have that little flicker of joy in me right now. its keeping me sane. every time i regret going instead of staying. i remember how much fun Craig was. and so this feeling i'll call Craig.
then theres the lackof sleep. im wiped but ere i sit because of cody. 2 hours after when he was suppose to be here. and so i call this feeling stupidity. stupidity, cuz i should have been asleep an our ago.
i feel like my head has been shaken up. and no matter of talking or typing has made me feel better. not even a little. not even an inch.
so heres to you bloggers. i hope you are smarter tan me.

never a dull moment.

up date on my crazy new years weekend.
on Saturday i truly did not want to go to work. so for the second time ever, i called in sick. it was so great. Brett came up from Calgary, and brought his guitar hero game. so i played that, me and will, and Laura made breakfast. and was just all around lazy. at last at about 9 o' clock decided that i needed to take a bath. and took a relaxing bath. i got out and went to bed at 10 o'clock. completely relaxed. so nice. at 12 o'clock, will came rushing into my room.
"Cathy wake up! its an emergency. Cody needs you!" and hands me his cell phone. Cody was on the other end. Cody explained to me that he was on his way to surprise me, and ran into a check stop about 5 minutes drive from my house. the cops were going to tow is car if he didn't find a licenced driver to drive the car. due to the fact that Cody only has a learners. he needed me to come pick him up. so i shot out of bed in a complete panic. i ran around got matea to drive me to the check stop. i made it there by 12: 05. i jumped out of the car in the middle of the high way. where i had made matea stop, and ran to Cody. i was completely freaked out i was shaking and still half asleep. not to mention the fact that it was freezing and i was in just my pj's. the cop released his car to me and i drove it home. and so was the adventurous start to my weekend. but with Cody life is always a little dramatic. i love him. he's like a brother to me. a brother that needs to be slapped a few hundred times. but all in all it was a fun weekend. i miss Cody all the time, and worry about him even more than that. I'm not even sure i should write about this kid on the Internet....... but he's part of me. and this is a place where i show who i am. so let me tell you about my relationship with Cody.
i have this weird emotional connection with this boy. its not romantic at all. it is like he is my brother/ my child/ best friend. its so weird we talk like best friends, we act like brother and sister (actually i have been told we act like and old married couple.) and i worry about him like he is my kid.
he is always in trouble. and he always has to be secretive. about everything, EVERYTHING!!!
for a long time i hated his other friends James and johnny. he choices them over me, no matter what. no matter what i did i could never compare to what James did. but this visit was a bit different. James turned into a little bit of an ass, and the funny thing i was mad at him for treating Cody like that. even though i knew that if he was normal with Cody, Cody would have ditched me completely. now though i don't hate James, cuz i kinda think Cody has noticed that we would drop everything for him. unlike James.
Cody drives me completely crazy, and yet is my favorite person. he can be the biggest jerk and if i try to tell him he makes me feel like a jerk. we argue all the time, and in the end i end up hugging him. he is the worse driver but i wouldn't want to be in the car with anyone else. he is so stubborn but always makes complete scenes. and most of all he is like me in boy form.... in to many ways. i can hate some thing and Cody will make me like it, i can think something and Cody can explain it so i don't think it anymore. it is an insane skill. and yet i never had someone that loves me so much.
its just so weird it blows my mind.
happy new years bloggers lets make 2008 better than the rest.

the pirate in my crall space


About 3 weeks ago my room mate came home with this huge pirates of the Caribbean talking poster thing. it is as big as a decent big screen TV. and it is green and has the pirates skull on it. but it has 6 catch phrases. now some of you i know will read this and think it wicked! i want one! and under normal circumstances i would probably agree.
But this HUGE pirate sign was brought to our home by matea. if you read my earlier entries she truly pisses everyone off. and she has this insane habit of buying things and leaving them struin about our living room, because she has run out of room in her bed room for them.
so when this pirate graced us with its presents, we were all but impressed. of course she ran it to our house holding this huge thing as it spewed out catch phrases like " come sail the seven sea to world end this Christmas, with pirates of the Caribbean at worlds end!"
she was in hysterics she thought it was so funny, she had coned a guy in walmart to give it to her. of course i looked at her and asked "where exactly are you going to put that huge thing? cuz you sure ain't leaving it in our living room matea!" she responded with, "o i can put it in the crawl space until my mom come to visit and then she can take it home with her!"
so the pirate was shoved into our crawl space 3 weeks ago. most of you would think that isn't a problem. unfortunately the catch phrases are on a motion censer. which mean ever time you walk up the stairs, open the dryer, turn a light on, or hit the wall to hard it starts spewing out ugly pirate catch phrases. and worst of all it only seems to happen in the middle of the night, or when you are the only one home. so you freak out and automatically go into so fake karate stance to protect your self. and so for the past 3 weeks ever morning and every time i got up to go to the bathroom at nigh,t i had the living daylights scared out of me. and it was really starting to piss me off. at last Christmas came and the sign was suppose to have an exodus from our home. unfortunately it was left in the crawl space, as matea jetted off to her home for Christmas. This pissed me off even more. but i spent 2 days quietly putting up with it. then on christmas day i plotted a pirate-napping. were this sign got taken out of the crawl space run about 3 blocks down from our house, to flying fish park. where it would be chucked off the dock and into the middle of the frozen pond. so that A. she would never know where it was, and B. so that the dam pirate was out of my house.
lucky for matea i am a nice person. i did not go through with project pirate sails the fish pond.
so this morning i woke up and glanced at my room. realizing that i had no clean laundry in my room i figured i should at last give in and do it. so i sorted the colors, and the whites, and the darks. shoved them into a basket and headed to the hall. i turned on the lights opened and machine, put the laundry in. and suddenly it happened. IT TALKED! it scared the crap out of me i jumped a mile high. and i knew that it had to go at this very moment. with anger i ran to my room and grabbed my purple scissors. i marched to that crawl space and looked at the pirate. my hate was not for this pirate, it was for its owner, and all her inconsideration for her room mates. and then i saw it, the yellow wires that made that sucker talk. and without even heisting i cut the wires in half and stomped outta that crawl space. VICTORY IS MINE!!! and so ends the life of the pirate in our crawl space.
