Hey there,
Just figured I'd update my journal for anyone who actually reads this. Ummm...yeah. Not too much to say right now. Just trying to balance a little bit of everything in my life. Well, dont really have to worry about the 'rents aspect of it anymore....they are across the country. That makes it sooo much harder. Well, I really really really miss Lyndsay up in BC, along with my parents, my sister, and anyone else I became friends with. On the plus side, I do have all of my friends here in Newfoundland.....Mark, Jeanine, Nikki, Adam, Kelly, Tracey, Melissa, Bryan, and everyone else, because I know I'm bound to miss someone. I dont think I would ever be able to do it without the help of my brother, Bryan. Not to mention Mark, Jeanine, and Nikki! They have helped me through sooooo much its not even funny! Well, I dont really have anything else to write about right now. Kinda bored actually, just waiting for my next class to arrive in 30 mins. *yawn* Well, maybe be back on to update this sometime in the near future. Laterz.

Yeah, so, I dunno. Things have been running through my brain these last few days. The girl I work with was gone away to Whistler since Thursday so I had lots of time to catch up on my thoughts. Strange things run through our head if you let them. Wow, its kinda weird how some songs just *POP* into your head, huh? Like, ok, the other day I was working, scraping and painting (yay), and out of no where....."Follow the yellow brick road......" and other stuff. Weird! Today I was alone again, Lyndsay doesnt come back to work til tomorrow, and I got "Pop, goes the weasel!" Damn, these songs are SOOOOOOO stupid and annoying!
Then, when I finally pushed the songs to the back of my mind........my thoughts came through. Sometimes, thoughts are scarier than songs. Well, the major thoughts on my mind are, "Are things gonna be the same as they were when I left? NO, of course they aren't" and "Man, there are no single, cute, young guys anywhere in this area. None that I can see, anyway." See, I told you it was scary. I don't care about the guys around her! I can wait til I get home. Anyways, its not like you wanna read about my thoughts. Not that anyone reads this anyways. But, its my way of venting when I wanna. So, truth be told, I WANNA GO HOME!!
Talk to ya!

Well, I have officially finished the first half of my holiday/work. Ummmm.....not much really to say. I'm takin this bartending course starting in a couple of weeks, so that should be fun. And other then that, Oh yeah, my mom and sister are here. So, just wanna apologize for the snoozability of this entry. 'Cause it is kinda boring. But, I really have nothing to say. So, TTFN. (Ta Ta For Now)
See everyone when I get home.

HEY!!! I'm finally updating my journal! Not that anyone reads it or anything, but you know. Stranger things have happened! LOL. So, ONLY 2 MONTHS TIL I GO HOME!!!! I can't wait! Mark called me the other day for the 1st time in almost a month. Thank goodness, I was beginning to think that he forgot about me. And, well, we've been put through hell by the phone company so I am still waiting on that damn long distance. As soon as I get it I'll be call you all, so, wait for it. I will call, I haven't forgotten. Believe me, if there is anything I haven't done is forgot all the peeps back home!! Just thinkin about seeing everyone in less than 2 months is what keeps me going everyday. So, consider yourself special! Well, nothin much to report except, SSDD!! Yay, I can finally use that line...not that I was looking for a way to use it or anything. But, I'm gonna head out now. So, later on folks. And as a famous person once said, "I'll be back!"

Ok, I have finished one week of work......the 1st week of less than 4 months. TOO LONG TO WAIT TO GO HOME!!!! I had my first prank played on me on Thursday. Not a good thing. See, one thing that you have to know about this plant is that it is 95% male working here. There are only about about 8-10 females that work here all together and the guys HATE it. They were really unhappy about the fact that the 2 students they hire every summer were females, BOTH of them! So, I was doing my job....washing off a lot with a firehose.....next thing I know, a jolt of pressure was shot through. If I hadnt held it tight enough, I would've landed on my ass. Then to be even funnier, the same guy turned the pressure right down, almost off, and then shot the pressure right up on high again! Man, I was pissed! I wasn't going to be mocked and nothing was going to keep me from doing my job. So, I continued doing what I was doing and finished my job properly. Man, guys don't like it when girls come in and take over their space, do they?? Oh well, thats too bad, 'cause I aint going anywhere!
So, on to a different matter, concerts!! Coldplay, Ozzy and Finger Eleven, and the list goes on.... I wanna go to them all!! I'm going to try to get tickets for Coldplay on the 23rd. I am going to buy myself a ticket for Ozzy and Finger Eleven! I am pretty sure I'll be going by myself but I don't care! So, my life will soon be complete!! (Well, after I go to these concerts and then go back to Newfoundland!)
Another piece of good news....I got a raise. I started by making approx. $11.98/hour. I now make $12.26/hour. And there is a possibility of me getting another raise by the end of the month. Oh well, thats what I get for working where unions are in place. LOL
On the note of good news...I'm thinking about getting a scooter. It kinda looks like a motorcycle, only it has a place for your feet btwn the handlebars and the seat. And, it only goes up to 80 km/h. But, thats all I would want/need. And they are cheap...to buy and on gas. So, I'm having fun, sorta, but its still not like home.
I dont really know anyone my age except the girl that I work with, and she is really cool. Her name is Lyndsay, and she's 20. But I dont hang out with er after work or on weekends. Although, you know I probably could. But, thats alright. I get my rest and I think about home and my friends a lot! I wish I were there with all you people in Newfoundland, or atleast be able to talk to you every once in a while. No one calls, no one emails.......I MISS BEING NEARBY!!! Well, I'm off to enjoy another day of 24 degree weather with sunshine and warmth. Nah, I'd still rather be home.
Talk to peeps later....I'll hopefully be moving into a house by the 1st of June, I'lll be getting internet and long-distance calling so I'll be calling more often! Gotta Jet!
Luv,
Mel

Well, I just got a new journal so I guess I'll put it to use. Thanx to Tracey and Kelly...I'll be able to stay in contact with those I can't email or call, due to lack of time and no internet connection, and what-not. So, I go here live and in one piece. Thats a plus. I GOT A JOB!!! $12/hour! Pretty sweet, or so I thought. I was gonna go to a Bad Religion cancert, but (A) my dad doesnt do that kind of music and (B) the money isnt there. So, I guess I'll just have to settle with the Coldplay concert coming up on the 23rd of May!!! Ahhhhh!! I'm going to see COLDPLAY!!!!! I'll try to get lots of souvenirs for all you back home!! Yes Mark, I am getting you something
....so stop feeling bad about it! I'm gonna try to get a little something for everyone. Dont know what or when I'll get it, but hopefully....if I can afford it...you will all get something from me from BC and the things I do!
I miss you all!! I hope I get to see all kinds of cool concerts here. Kinda bored here, not knowing anyone and such. I WANNA GO HOME!!!! Well, thats about it.
I'm gonna go and try to have some fun on my own, keep readin. It may take some time..but I will write in this! Chaio!
