its mardi gras.

so?

i dont drink, i hate parades, and i dont know my way around new orleans. so im stuck at home helping my brother do various school projects. i just finished putting together a poster of toni morrisons timeline. fun stuff. what i wanted to do was finish "the reptile room" so i can read the rest of the series of unfortunate events and then maybe paint a picture or something. i got a crapload of awesome art stuffs from school for FREE because i had almost $200 left over from my book scholarship. so i bought the biggest pack of watercolors they had, some chinese ink, a bamboo brush, and a set of acrylic/watercolors brushes. so i cant wait to actually use some of that stuff. i want to paint an awesome picture of something for daniel, but im not too sure what of. i think ive settled on a few scenes from final fantasy X that i have to choose from. i also found a great picture of sora from kingdom hearts that would make a great watercolor. or pencil drawing. whatever i feel like.

so i made dinner last night. i was really dissappointed when it wasnt very good. the plan was to make some delicious pasta stuff, but my mom insisted that we add crawfish to it, and it didnt come out so good. the pasta itself would have been delicious, it was rainbow rotinis in alfredo sauce with mushrooms. next time i want to add artichoke hearts instead of crawfish. oh and i baked cupcakes. did i mention i like cooking and stuff? i really enjoy baking, specifically decorating cookies and cakes. id really like to take that somewhere, but UNO doesnt offer culinary, and i dont want to NOT get a theatre degree. maybe after i finish my bachelors in theatre, i can pursue a culinary career. i think that would make me a very well-rounded person. theatre and cooking. those are both admirable talents. i would love to open my own restaurant. its a nice dream to have, even though i know its a lot of work. but i guess ill save that for later, when i have a midlife crisis and realize i never lived my dreams.

speaking of dreams, kris, i had a dream about you. it may or may not have been a sex dream, lol. i just know that you were there and i was hell of horny. so yeah. you may have ravished me last night. fun, no?

i need to find a place. a place i can go when im sad or bored or lonely and itll be peaceful and quiet and not as lonely. i think i may start going to the library on a daily basis. ive been rereading books, which isnt strange for me, but id like to read a lot more books. im reading the entire series of unfortunate events because not only are my copies in boxes, but i never got to read past book 9. so id like to complete the series. theyre kids' books, so they take me about one sitting to read an entire book. i used to go the library a lot before we got our computer after the storm, and i had no books to read. i went last week for the first time in almost a year. it made me sad how much i missed that place. they reopened the coffee place and moved some stuff around. i just love the smell of books and walking between those ridiculously high shelves. the only time i hate the library is when its kind of crowded, and you have to move up close to the shelf to let someone pass. i prefer it when its nearly empty. its quiet, the way the library should be. i wonder if the do childrens book readings there. anyone know? id love to volunteer for that, i love reading for an audience, especially kids. i think that would be an excellent use of my time.

so i might become "cosmetics specialist" at target. which i think would be great. not only would i get paid a dollar more, but i would have set hours and i would be in charge of that little 5 aisle area that is cosmetics. i could so handle that. id love to stock shelves and straighten things up all day. really. im just getting a little tired of the checklanes. ive been at target almost a year now, and i need a change. not a different job, just a change. ive already trained for guest services, so now i can do that too. some one asked me if i was training to become a gstl (manager over cashiers and guest services) and i was like hell to the no. i took on too much responsibility at the palace and i dont want to do that at target. i like it there, and i dont want to be so overloaded when i go to work that i hate it. being a gstl would just comepletely burn me out.

this entry is starting to get long, heh. my grades are great so far, and im really glad that im doing well. i did terribly last semester, and i know daniel worried about me a lot. so the goal this semester is 4.0. or at the very least, a 3.5. theres no reason why i shouldnt be able to do it considering the classes im taking. theyre all my strengths, french, two englishes (brit lit amd drama), and acting. ive been kicking ass in everything. and i love all my teachers. sometimes in english (drama), its just me and the teacher talking and no one else knows what the hell were talking about. its awesome.

well ok ive bored you enough but i think thats about everything. im off to cook hot dogs becuase boog is making me freaking crazy asking when dinner is.
