Got a call from my mom today at work to let me know that my sister-in-law had the baby. She wasn't due until the end of the month. Anyways...the baby has down syndrome. HOw could this be? Seriously! This is the same sister in law with the boy who might be slightly autistic. so yeah. i don't know what else to say. Baby's name is Kilia (pronounced Ky-lee-ah) it means "heaven" in hawaiian. SHe was only 4 pounds one ounce.

why can't i just for ONCE do something better than my sister? just ONCE! but NOOOO! That's not possible! Let me explain...I'm finally starting my career on monday. i finally know what i want to do with my life. I've decided to go into cosmetology, but guess what? my sister always steals all of my thunder because SHE just got accepted into a pretty big school for her nursing. there were tons of applicants for this and they were only taking 30 people. but of COURSE she was accepted. and of course EVERYONE is congratulating her and wishing her luck. i mean, i'm happy for her, sure, but seriously...it just hurts that i can't have any praise for MY accomplishments. i mean, really...what's the big deal about beauty school? thats NOTHING compared what SHE's going for. i really HATE comparing myself with her, but it just hurts. you know? I can't remember a time my mom has told me she's proud of me. and of course she told my sister that. my sister had wrote that she was accepted in a FB status. my mom NEVER comments on people's statuses...EVER. until today when she had posted that. so am i just being a bad sister for not being THAT excited for her? i was excited at first, but now i just keep thinking about it and how it just doesn't matter what i do. ever. nursing is bigger, better career, than a stupid lame stylist. you know? anyways...i could rant on and on and on and on, but that's all for now.

just a quick post. i know i haven't posted in a LONG while...anyways. this is just really bugging me, so therefore i really need to get it out there. i dont care if people comment, i just have to let it out. i have no one really to talk to right now. well, actually i dont really want to talk. i have to work early and am getting to bed real soon! Anyways, I found out that my 4 year old nephew might be slightly autistic. I don't know why this is bothering me SO bad, but I just want to cry for him. He might not even HAVE it, but my heart still aches. I went out for a going away party thing. and only stayed for about an hour-hour and a half. i didn't have a good time. for more reasons than just my "autistic" nephew. I'll explain a different day. but yeah, i just couldnt have fun thinking about him and I most DEFINITELY couldn't talk about it at the party. anyways-thats it. thanks for letting me vent a bit!

My feelings would best be described in the video below at about 1:55 in...




That's EXACTLY how I've been feeling. I'm not even kidding you. All of my friends are getting engaged or married or having kids. I'M having nothing. I don't mean to be bitter or anything, but I can't help but feel a little sad about it. I'm also the only one in my family without a boyfriend. I just don't know what to do or think anymore. I have no idea where I'm going to meet this "some one." Something else that makes me sad is that a good friend of mine, well USED to be good friend of mine just got married last weekend and I wasn't even invited. That hurt a lot actually. I realize we've lost touch, but still, we used to be best friends. Whatever...so yeah. that's it. I'm just kind of lonely at the moment. I'll get over it, I'm sure.

Why is it this so hard? Seriously. Aside from the laughter of that question being a classic Jan That's what SHE said moment...why the heck is it so hard to keep my journal updated? I'm so terrible at posting entries! I'm horrible at commenting! I feel awful! I hope all is well with everyone! I'm doing pretty good! I'm kind of excited actually! I'm like about 98 percent sure that I'm going to beauty school now! I finished my first year of college in May, but I've been so interested in cosmetology (again) where I feel like I better sign up before the interest is gone. I wanted to be a "hair dresser" back in junior/senior year of high school. I planned on taking a year off before signing up and within that time decided that beauty school just wasn't for me. BUT, yes there's a BUT-within the last year, I've started to become extremely interested in it again. I feel like this is really my calling. I'm a little more confident in myself and feel like I'll be great at it! The thing that I'm going to miss about going to college is my English classes because I love writing so much and I was good at it. I'm pretty sure I impressed my instructor with every writing assignment. I'm really going to miss that. With that being said, I feel like beauty school is going to be the best decision I've made. There are a couple of thoughts that I need to consider such as if I'm going to be able to keep my job or not. Going to beauty school is a full-time commitment. They DO have part-time classes, but I really wouldn't want to be there for more than a year. If I go full-time, I believe it'd be an 8 to 4 day or 9 to 5. I'm not quite sure. If that's the case, that'd be great because I should be able to just work a 5 to midnight shift, or a 6 to midnight. I don't think I can ever quit that place because It has a lot of benefits. Anyways, that's where I'm at with that! :) I've listened and really considered all of the advice I've gotten, but when it came down to this 98 percent decision, it was my sister who really helped my with my decision. Her opinions and thoughts probably mean the most to me. No offense to any of my friends, but I want her to be proud of me. Is that weird? I don't even really care about my parents thoughts right now, it's mainly my sister's. Anyways, I thought that my sister would've not supported my beauty school decision, so I didn't even tell her about it because It was just in my mind that I would go back to college. Until last night. I talked to her for a while and told her a huge problem I had at work and explained how, at the time (things are a lot better NOW), I was thinking about quitting, getting a night time job waitressing and just going to beauty school. That's how much I wanted to quit. So anyways, that's how we got on the subject of beauty school and i was expecting her to tell me that it'd be a bad idea and that I should just finish my 4-year degree in something I have the UN-slightest clue as to what I'm going for. But NO! She surprised me with telling me that she thinks I should go. She told me that she was pretty surprised a few years ago when I told her that I WASN'T gonna go. Even though she supports me getting a 4-year degree, she thinks that beauty school is more up my alley than an English teacher, which is what I've been breifly considering. I'm at a moment right now in life where I want to be more than just a number. I want to have an importance in life, which is what I DON'T have right now. I feel like I'd be a great teacher. I would love having kids feel like they could talk to me if they had a problem with writing. The thing about that is I don't think I could do all of the schooling to BE a teacher. And if I can't handle GOING to school to be a profession where you're IN school for NINE months a year, then that's probably not the career for me. Right? Anyways....that's a little update on what's going on in Saraland! :)

Are you friends with your parents?


View 502 Answers

I love this question! The answer is, of course, yes! :) I love my parents so, so much! I tell them everything (basically) and we have a really strong bond because of it. I've never had to lie to them and because of this honesty, they trust me. I've never given them a reason NOT to trust me, you know? Anyways, I guess you could call my parents my friends. Also-it's not like they NEVER get on my nerves! trust me-they do! Mostly my mother. sometimes, I just can't stand her. Especially if she has a glass or two of wine, she becomes very annoying and I usually just walk out of the room. Just to clarify-my parents are NOT alcoholics. They just like the occasional glass of wine every night. Other than that, my parents ARE my friends! :)

Okay so it's been a LONG while since I've posted an entry, but it's not that I have never wanted to! It's just a lot of the time I didn't have as much time to devote myself to write one. I know, I know, it doesn't have to be a whole book or anything, but it's just been so long since I've posted one that I feel like it should probably be CLOSE to a book. Lol. ANYways...I'm just writing THIS post to let you know that I'm planning on doing an update on life, work, and school really soon! In the meantime, I hope ALL is well! :) I'm off to a Twins game. Yeah, we're probably going to get our asses handed to us once again by the damn Yankees, whom no body likes btw! :( Sorry Elisa...we're just not that fond of them. Lol-so please pray for MY team to win! :) Okay-peace out...

Here we go! I feel like we haven't had a fic for awhile! This is just a short one though, but I hope you still enjoy it! It's been a fic I've been writing on-and-off for about awhile now and have FINALLY just got the urge to finish and post it. I hope you all enjoy. It takes place sometime after the dinner party episode, but before Jan's pregnancy. (You could pretend that never even happend.) Comment if you please! Thanks! :)

Should we just be handing over the car keys when kids turn 16? Why or why not?

View 500 Answers

Yep, answering another one...Lol....first of all, how odd is it that this question is sponsored by Allstate? That' s my insurance company. Anyways, I really think that 16 is way too young for kids to start driving. Kids, in general, are still very immature at that age and to give them something that requires great responsibility? That's just too much for them. I didn't get my license till I was 18 or 19. I forgot. lol. but anyways, I think that it was great that I waited because I became more mature by the age of 18. I also think that the drinking age should go up. Maybe it would prevent more deaths in the long run. Anyways....thoughts?

Do you seek attention or hide from it?

Submitted By [info]novarr


View 501 Answers

I like this question because the answer is a little of both yes and no. When I'm with my family, I'm never heard, you know? So I guess I DO try and seek attention by acting kind of ditzy and dumb. That's kind of sad to say, but I don't know what else to do. It's not that I NEED attention, it's just that I have no one my age that really looks up to me or always looks forward to talking to me or hanging out with me, so acting that way sort of gets me the attention I want. But on the NO part-I'm not one who HAS to look different to stand out or "get attention." There are some people who have the oddest clothes and styles like they're asking to get attention. I'd rather just blend in with the rest of the crowd. Also, when I'm in school, I like to fit in and not look different because I don't want attention drawn to me. But yeah. this was a good question. What are everyone else's answers?

So I think I'm doing everything in my power to NOT do homework. I also think that I if I wait long enough, it'll like magically be FRIDAY!!!! :) But....sad to say it doesn't work that way. Anyways, I just thought, since a few of you just had an anniversary with LJ, I actually was curious to know the exact day I created MY account. I created it February 28th, 2007!!!! I can't believe it's already been more than two years. Well, I guess I CAN believe it. When I first joined, it was all because of Michael and Jan from The Office. I read some fanfics over on fanfiction.net and was looking at the authors' profiles and discovered that there was this whole community dedicated to EmJay! So I became a member just like that. I wasn't writing MJ fics yet because I was still getting into their characters, but I read some of the fics on the PIT (Perfect imperfect thing) and ideas started floating around in my head and then one day, I took an idea out of my idea folder and actually wrote a peice, which there is a link posted below...but anyways, what I'm mainly writing about is how it wasn't until almost a whole YEAR of being a member of LJ that I actually posted an entry on my actual journal. It was just one of the Writer Block questions. So yeah...that was February 11th, 2008 and I've tried to keep up to date on it ever since. I'll go on hiatus just like everyone else, but overall, I always come back! :)


Quick update on school-I had my English final today and I THINK I did pretty good. Idk...I have a low A in that class and am really worried that it could lower to a B. I'm gonna be really upset if it does. Anyways...so one class down, four to go. Tomorrow is my speech and need all the luck I can get. It only has to be 5 minutes, but it's gonna feel like 5 hours, I'm sure. So please wish me luck! :) Then I'll be all done with speech! YAY!!!! Probably gonna get a B. Tomorrow, I also have choir. We have to get ready for graduation on Friday because we're singing two songs and whatnot, which is cool. Wednesday, all I have is my public issues class, which I'm sure I'll get a B in it as well, which I'll be happy with. I just have a final paper and quiz due, but we just turn those in online. So then that's the end of public issues, thank God! Thursday, I have geography and will be happy to be done with that class. I hope to get a B. To be honest, I had a lot of missing work because I missed like three of his classes (whoops), but I turned it all in last week along with a project that was due last week. I hope I did really well on it. I'm anxious to know what grade I receive. His quizzes are all take-home so that's whats due Thursday along with a stupid activity we're gonna do IN class. Anyways, then it's last day of choir as well and we're gonna have a pizza party! I know, I know, so high school/grade school, huh? I guess that's the benefit of a community college. Lol. Anyways, I'll receive an EASY A (that's what I call it) for sure. I hope to be a little more focused next year so I can receive A's athough I AM happy with Bs since it's a lot better than when I was in high school. I've never done this great in school before so I have to say that I'm pretty proud of myself especially since I work all the time too you know?! I just hope that I don't end up with a C in my geography class because I hope I can get a "good student discount" with my insurance company. It increased drasically and I need to try and do anything to get it dropped. All because I had two claims in 6 months.

Okay that wasn't really a "quick update" but whatever...I best be getting back to my homework...I hope everyone is doing swell! Any summer plans? Sorry for errors in grammer/writing/etc....

***Whoops***Forgot the link...feel free to read it you want...it's kind of old and not as good, grammar wise. Lol.

Just a quick post before I have to head to class in just about 8 minutes....I'm planning on getting caught up with entries after next week. School's pretty busy and I feel guilty if I do anything that isn't really "school related" you know? I also have to reply on a few comments from my last post! So I'll be doing that shortly as well. In the meantime, I need a little help with a project. Nothing major, but I was just wondering if anyone knew of any popular television programs that are NOT aired in the US, but aired in a different region/country. This project is quite fun actually. I have to research a topic of my choice and basically talk about how they differ in each region. So for instance, MY topic is popular television programs and so what I'm doing is just talking (FYI-it's actually a powerpoint presentation, i'm not actually talking...) anyways, I was just curious if you knew of any tv shows that are sorta popular overseas. Thanks! Okay, well I'm off to choir! :) Hope everyone is swell!

So I'm just a little curious to know why is it that the people who are all for gay marriage and support the gays and what not always make fun of them? I'm just wondering because it's like always such a big deal that Lindsay Lohan is a 'lesbian' (i'm not gonna get into this much further, no pun intended, lol) but then you have people like Chelsea Handler, whom I think is hilarious, just for the record, always makes fun of her and Sam. Also-I would just like to state that I mean 'in general' here...I know not EVERYone in the world makes fun of them...but a lot of the people in Hollywood makes jokes about gay celebrities, but yet they support the gays or whatever. Same with Kathy Griffin. She's another one who makes fun of Clay Aiken by calling Clay GAYkin. I think that's hilarious, don't get me wrong, but she supports them 100 percent. Idk...I've just been wondering that lately. If they're gay, then so what? Why do they make fun of them? That's all...TWO WEEKS TIL SUMMER GAYCAY! :) Haha, see what I did there? 

I want to write about something...

  • Apr. 21st, 2009 at 10:49 PM
Prince Nathanial
...but I'm just unsure of what to write about, so this is sort of a pointless post. Let's see. I have the next two days off, so that's great! I have school in the morning, but that's about it. I'm thinking about going to the doctors tomorrow too. I haven't been there for like two years and two years ago, that was the first time I've been to the doctors in a LONG time, so yeah, I might go. I know something's wrong with me, I'm just not sure what. For the past three to four months, my knees have been really sore, but for the fast few weeks, they've been so sore to where I don't know what to do anymore. They keep getting worse. I'm not one to complain or whine about this kind of stuff, so since I sort of HAVE been complaining about my pain, I guess there probably IS something not right. Who knows? Maybe I just need more calcium in my diet. I just don't think that my knees would hurt THAT bad from lack of calcium. I guess we'll find out. Enough about that...what else? Well I'm very excited for school to be done for the semester. I need a break so much! The drive alone sucks. It's only like 10 miles away but still...every day, twice a day, for four days out of the week gets to be a little too much.

Anyways, I've been starting to think about Michael and Jan again. It's still SO weird that we won't see Jan for the rest of the year. Melora, herself, said that she'll be back next season, but I bet when they get to next season, she won't be on at all. I mean, they DID make it sound like she'd be on by the end of THIS season. I just don't get it because I think that a great way to fit her back in is to have her work for Michael Scott Paper Company. Wouldn't that make sense? All I know is I miss her on that show. I have two challenges for the community that I want to put up, but it's like no one is even into them anymore. One challenge actually involves prizes, so I'm sure people will be all for that. I think that once school's done for the semester, I can try my hardest to get the challenges posted.

Speaking of Melora, I DID see her in the Hannah Montana movie. She was awesome in it! :) I haven't seen her in "17 again" yet, but I'm planning on it soon! Too bad she never has the lead role to where her fame would just skyrocket. Then again, I was just talking about this today, sometimes, I just like celebrities that aren't that well-known because if Melora was a huge famous person, all of that would go to her head and she wouldn't be as humble as she is. I think that is what's so great about people like her.

Well I think I'll it a night. Sorry for this random post. I hope all is well on everyone's ends! :)

Well I know I hardly ever post anymore but school can make that a little difficult. I've been wanting to post updates on life/school/work but wanted to have a great amount of time to do so which I haven't exactly had. And when I actually DO have time to write, I'd rather relax or sleep. Lol...anyways...I'm writing right now because I got out of class early and have nothing else to do. And also-after yesterday and last night, I've been kind of "in the mood" to write. So here it is....an update! :) Oh and before I begin, sorry, I know you're all anxious (lol), I wanted to thank the people that commented on my last post. I think I was throwing one of my "Sara tantrums" but the beauty in that is that MY tantrums are gotten over super quickly. Lol. Anyways, thanks again...love you guys! :)

Well, it's been a long while and I've been wanting to post an update on school and work and life and all that jazz, but I just haven't found the time to do so. This is just a quick post. I want to share a paper I wrote about the UK Office and the USA Office! It was supposed to be a compare/contrast paper of what we already knew. I didn't do ANY research on this paper. It was just stuff I already knew, so anyways...I hope you all enjoy. Oh, and by the way, I got an A on it. That's why I'm sharing it with you. :) That's all for now...HOPE EVERYONE IS DOING SWELL! NIGHT!

Oh my gosh! I LOVE this question! And since I haven't posted anything in a while, I thought to answer this question! :) Basically there was an episode of 'The Office' where Michael makes a profile at one of those dating sites and as he's signing up, he needs a username and decides on 'littlekidlover' because you know? He wants the ladies to know what he wants. Lol. SOOOOOO....when I joined LJ, it was because of Michael and Jan. Since I love them so much, I decided on MICHAELJANLOVER...clever huh? ;) LOL.
