Oh yeah!!! RACHEL GRADUATED!!! WOOHOO!!!
~Saturday, August 10, 2002~05:25 p.m.~
OK, so I just bid on 27 romance novels for $3 + S/H. Ebay is the devil...and I was like "Ooooh 9 books for $1, oh here's 8 books for $1, and here's another 10 books for $1" Goody! Yes, I have definitely lost my mind.
In other news, I'M GOING TO GRAND CAYMAN ISLAND IN 4 DAYS!!!!!!!! :) :) :) :)
~Friday, August 2, 2002~06:28 p.m.~
Alrighty, so the newest destination that I (well, Stacey and I) are planning on going to is Iran. How come nobody else thinks this is cool? I think it'd be really cool - VERY different of course, but it would be extremely educational and purty exciting and all that. Yup yup...It's not that dangerous...I've been through worse. :)
~Sunday, July 28, 2002~11:13 p.m.~
Well, it's the end of my internship. I am about to do my last seal feed here at Wolf Hollow. Tonight is my last night in the mobile home...I'm a bit still in denial. The stars are shining bright tonight, and you can see the Milky Way. I am going to go to Judy's (a volunteer) amazing house in the morning for a sunrise breakfast most likely (at 5am). I love this island and am not quite sure I am ready to leave it. It has been the most beautiful place I've ever spent a lengthy amount of time at. It feels like home. Anyways I am exhausted, and I need to go get seal formula ready. I hate it when time keeps going even when you want it to stand still.
~Friday, July 19, 2002~09:41 p.m.~
OH MY - We just got the CUTEST SEAL EVER in today. She's ADORABLE!!! I thought our others were cute, but nothing compares to here. She makes you melt when you look at her...I am in love!!!!!!!!! *swoon* ;) In other news, by tomorrow morning we will have **at least** 13 harbor seal pups in our possession. EGADS!
~Tuesday, July 16, 2002~10:00 p.m.~
RACHEL IS OLD!! RACHEL IS OLD!! HAHAH! ;) Just kidding. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
~Saturday, July 13, 2002~07:02 p.m.~
Whew am I tired! 10 hour shifts, and since Dana cut his arm, we are short staffed. And we have 5 seals now. Yeah, they are adorable but they take forever to feed and bathe! Anyways, needless to say I am exhausted. I am all whiney and stuff, which is because I was hungry. I didn't get to eat lunch b/c I had to go buy booze at the store during my break (me being the only 21 year old here). I always get grumpy when I am denied food. :) But it's ok cuz I'm drinkin Jager tonite!! Hmm...I don't know if I had anything to say on this...hrmm...I think they are filling up the big pool right now so we can put some seals in there! YAY! LOOOVE the seals. :) If only I didn't have to tube feed them. Anywho later!

Men pretty much suck. I've come to this conclusion. Haha. No, ok, that's too general. I know there are some good ones out there! I just keep meeting all the wrong ones. Anywho, so there's Mike, the new male intern, who has decided to have a fling with Sarah, another intern. The funny part is that she has mono. I guess she is worth the risk of getting an illness that lasts for a LONG LONG TIME?? They moved on to swapping spit (e.g. kissing on the mouth) last night, and all day today they have been all over each other. And if you know me well at all, you know that I hate PDA! They kiss in the kitchen, in the seal nursery, while doing laundry, pretty much everywhere they can find each other! Ugh, *gag*. It gets really annoying after awhile. They were blocking the kitchen door once while they were kissing, and I was like "OK, move it along. There's work to be done!" And Sarah asks me why I'm being uptight. It just gets annoying that I'm doing all the work while they are making out. Does this seem fair to you?? Plus they both have sig. other at home. Go figger. Men suck! OK, women suck too...But Mike is going to get mono and I will not have any sympathy for him!!!!! In other news....
Dana (guy rehabber) stabbed himself in the arm while he was butchering a deer for venison and we had to call 911 and I held a towel on his arm for a long time as a tourniquet because he was bleeding quite badly. The paramedics finally came, and it turned out OK because I only got blood on my watch and I didn't like it anyway. It was kinda gross cuz blood was dripping down all over my hands. Sarah got upset and I made her leave, but then she came back and cried on Mike's shoulder while he hugged her. I was still holding the bloody towel as tight as I could around Dana's arm while she was being all girly and vulnerable. Geez. Some people! Well apparently she gets weak at the sight of human's blood, but not animals. To me, it's purty much the same red stuff. Anywho...now I sound like a snob. So we got a new seal in today and now I get to do a 4am feeding. Woohoo! Joys! Anywho, 18 days till I come home. Who's excited? Heheh. Actually I'm beginning to like it here. Rather, I'm feeling less homesick. This island is still gorgeous!!!!!!!!! Anywho later taters.
~Tuesday, July 9, 2002~07:50 p.m.~
Yeehaw! HAPPY BIRTHDAY JESSICA!!!! You are friggin old now man! ;) Or...at least you can buy beer. Hehe.
~Saturday, June 29, 2002~08:17 p.m.~
Hello my peoples...Oops, had to close the window there. Stalker Rick showed up. I was getting worried - he hadn't been by in 48 hours. I thought he died or something. For more info on Stalker Rick, refer to the letter I sent Megan in the mail yesterday. And for those of you who are writing me letters, don't forget that stamps went up to 37 cents. But I'm worth it! Right???
Well here I am on San Juan Island in Washington State, at the Wolf Hollow Rehabilitation Centre. It's kind of cold right now so my fingers are stiff (well the hour and a half of dishwashing probably didn't help the stiffness any). Today we got in a Great Blue Heron and a Red Tailed Hawk. Serena put down one of my favorite crows though, and this morning I found a little sparrow dead in his cage that I had grown to like. Also our tiny weasel died for no apparent reason yesterday. Ugh. This job is intriguing, exhausting, and also somewhat depressing! I loooove my animals though! My racoons kick ass. I can't say I'm too fond of one of our seals at the moment. Her name is Spirit and she's a whiney lil' thing who is impossible to tubefeed. Plus she snaps at me. Good thing she doesn't have teeth yet! Tipsoo, our other seal pup, makes up for it by being the CUTEST THING EVER! Almost as cute as my racoons. Abu and Bandito are both bottlefed. I named the other one Nike secretly because whenever I'm bottlefeeding the other two, he plays with my shoelaces. (I was wearing Nikes). Sooo cute! I really wish I could bring this one crow home with me. He's pretty dang tame, which isn't a good thing at all. He'll try to fly on my shoulder when I go in the cage, but I have to shoo him away. When I won't handfeed him (he begs) he gives me this hurt betrayed look. :(
Anywho I'm purty tired and my hands are not typing very well. Sad that I have nothing to do on a Saturday night but write to the general public and go get icecream later with fellow trailer-mates, then go watch Elimidate, 5th Wheel, and Change of Heart (in that order). :) But everything is A-OK here. Now I know TONS about wildlife. Go me! Anywho, night peeps!
~Monday, May 27, 2002~11:38 p.m.~
Hiya my peoples. Tomorrow I am leaving for Washington state. I can't believe it is finally time for me to go. I won't be back for two months, so I won't be updating this either. I doubt I'll get much computer time while I am there. Anyways, just wanted to let y'all know that I will miss all of you!! You guys are great friends, and I am so glad I met every one of you! Dunno what I would have done without all of you. Megan, Jeff, Rachel, Miranda, Jess, Andrew, Daniel, Jon, Jason, Leah, Michaele, Alicia, Adam, Stacey...yeah you get the picture...everybody!!!!! My lil' circle o' friends. Hehe. I wish I could bring you all with me. :-) Anyways, love ya all! See you in 8 weeks or so! :)
~Friday, May 24, 2002~02:36 p.m.~
Howdy people! I am baaaack! But not for long. I leave Wednesday (or maybe Tuesday - egads!) for Washington. It is so close! How did it get to be so close????? If anybody is wondering, I will be coming up to Athens on Sunday *wink wink* and will be staying until Monday afternoon. *more winks of course* I have no idea what I am saying right now because I just woke up and I'm so so so tired. We started travelling yesterday morning at 10am. Flew from Iguazu to Buenos Aires, then went in a taxi to our favorite restaurant there, then went to the airport and sat around for 2 and a half hours. Then had like a 10 hour flight last night! Thank god for business class on the flight...Anywho, the falls were AMAZING!!!!!!!! We saw toucans, monkeys, coatis, parakeets, agoutis, guinea pigs, and my personal favorite...the tarantula my foot was right next to on a trail! Yeah, I sorta screamed and said a few explatives on that one...Hey, you try looking down and seeing a spider the size of a cat crawling inches from your foot! Anywho...it was still just amazing, all of it!
~Friday, May 17, 2002~05:19 p.m.~
Well, I'm about to get ready to leave for the airport for Argentina. Just wanted to say "howdy!" and I miss everybody in Athens! I will be back in a week and will be makin a lil' pilgrimage there in case anybody was concerned about not seeing me for awhile :) Haha. Anywho, send me your mailing addresses if you have not yet! See y'all in a week!
~Friday, May 17, 2002~12:26 a.m.~
For those of you who didn't get my 'memo', if you want to stay in touch with me this summer, the best way will probably be through snail mail. Send your mailing address to april_redhead@hotmail.com and you shall have a penpal! Awwww....How sweet! But if you send me forwards, you will die a horrible death! Or...I will pull your hair! One of the two.
~Thursday, May 16, 2002~03:52 p.m.~
Wel, tomorrow I am off to Argentina to go to Iguazu Falls on the Argentinian/Brazilian/Paraguayan(sp?) border. I'm pretty dang excited. This is the most my mother and I have ever planned a trip. We actually have hotels booked and transportation reserved. Not like when we went to the Galapagos and just went down there, found a hotel, and found a boat at the hotel. We will be staying at the Sheraton International Iguazu, which is less than a mile from the falls. Yippee!! Then I come back and pack really really quickly for Washington, which I am also far too excited about!
In other good news, the CT scan results came back for my dad. Nothing showed up! He's cancer free! :) :) :) 'Tis a good day...
~Thursday, May 9, 2002~10:14 a.m.~
Ugh, did I mention that I really hate physics? I made a C in there...yuck yuck yuck...But I guess it's ok...I made a B in spanish, and an A in biochem and fungus. 3.44 GPA...I am gonna have to do real well next semester to get my 3.5...I really want to get that, but I don't know if it'll happen! But at least I keep HOPE...always a good thing! Anywho, off I go on another crazy day...
~Wednesday, May 8, 2002~06:28 p.m.~
*shudders and crawls into a fetal position* That was awful! Evil summer residents!!!! I HATE ATHLETES!!
~Tuesday, May 7, 2002~08:10 a.m.~
Yay!! I made an A in biochem!!!!
~Saturday, May 4, 2002~11:57 p.m.~
Well, here I am in Conyers at my parents house. Funny I don't think of it as my house anymore. Feels like I am just visiting. Well, I probably should not be putting this on the internet. My mother kind of told me to keep it to myself, but I am worried and therefore have to tell friends. My dad had surgery last week to help with his sleep apnea. Well, when the surgeon went it, he found that dad had like 25% of his tonsils left, so he just kinda decided to take them out even though that wasn't part of the surgery. The doctor sent the tissue off to a pathologist because that is the procedure. The pathologist found a 3mm malignant carcinoma. It's actually a rare kind of cancer, and one that is devastating. If not caught in the early stages, it can kill and do other horrible things. Well, thankfully it was caught at the earliest stages, and the surgeon thinks he got all of it. So...cross your fingers, pray, whatever, that he did. So we're all a bit worried right now.
~Friday, May 3, 2002~01:48 p.m.~
I hate getting all nostalgic about stuff. The good and the bad...Too much has happened in the past three years. I have met some of my greatest friends ever here at UGA, and lost almost as many to differences, betrayal and my own problems. I am almost scared that I only have one year left, and that things keep changing. I wish time could just stop for a little while so I wouldn't get this panicky feeling inside that things will never be as good or as fun. I always wonder "What if?" What if I was still friends with Robby, Laurie and Amanda? That thought scares me. I don't want to think about it, and yet I do think about it. It was one fucked up situation and it affected my life probably more than most things have. Would I go back and change how I acted? Yes, most definitely, but I would not have changed the outcome. Do I miss them? Definitely not. They weren't my friends. They never were. The "saga" did make me stronger though. I wish I could have been stronger then - I would have saved myself a lot of pain! I hate regrets, don't you?
~Thursday, May 2, 2002~06:39 a.m.~ I did not dream this!!!
More sleep would be nice! I forgot to tell y'all about Starbucks last night! A huge group of "protestors" (I thought they were just drunk) came by Starbucks protesting, I think, capitalism. We were never actually sure what it was they were protesting exactly. They came by about midnite. One was dressed as a cow, another as a lion, and still another was a yankee soldier (As in American Revolution soldier). They started playing limbo with the lion's tail, and tried to steal the big sign from Starbucks. It was rather amusing. No I am not on crack! I realy did see this stuff! Although I do need more sleep.

~Gary
I'm really getting sick of these emails. The ones where he is pretty much whining about the comments we gave him on his evaluations. Let's take a vote - Who thinks I should write him back and tell him to get over himself and stop being a whiney immature pompous ass??? OK, maybe I should not put that...I know, Rachel, I need to talk to Joslyn and not nurse my resentment and utter annoyance at his lack of tact and common sense. But I haven't gotten to dislike somebody in so long. :-) It's almost fun! OK, time to get a whole 3 hours of sleep now!
~Tuesday, April 30, 2002~07:13 p.m.~
I am definitely on a Rufus kick right now...It happens. :)
~Tuesday, April 30, 2002~08:53 a.m.~
Last night was too much fun. I should not be having that much fun on exams week. Rachel, Andy and I went to go see Rufus Wainwright at the 40Watt. What an amazing show!! Sexy man, sexy voice. Too bad he is gay. He is truly an amazing artist though. I was so happy that he came out at the encore and sang "Instant Pleasure." Micheal Stipe was there, which was kinda cool. I'm a sucker for celebrities. Then as we were leaving, we found Jeff and Megan waiting outside. Jeff said "$3 hurricanes!!!" So, we went to Uptown Lounge and I chugged one. It was the nastiest drink I have ever had, but it really got me drunk. So then we went to the Grill and ate food. Then came home. Yay! I need more sleep. And I need to study!!!!!!! Well at least I am working 7 hours today so I can hopefully study some there. And why the hell is it raining????
~Sunday, April 28, 2002~11:31 a.m.~
Yeah, so I am a total geek and went to bed at 10pm last night. Still, I feel lots better! 12 hours of sleep does the body wonders. Well, it does wonders after a week of sleeping less than 5 hours each night. Now if I could only "get in the mood" to study. All I want to do is go do fun stuff. Like go to Six Flags! Or Stone Mountain (love the climbing up part and the laser show). Or...anything but study!!! Last night Megan and I went through the mystery boxes in my closet (the boxes I never bothered cleaning out, the ones my mom packed me). We found 4 calculators, an Italian phrasebook, a Swahili phrasebook (Habari gani!), a German phrasebook, a set of "Learn German while driving" tapes, sunblock, a fanny pack, and much much more! I should go through mystery boxes more often! Anywho it is time to get a bit of work done...
~Thursday, April 25, 2002~05:57 p.m.~
Don't you hate it when your reserves are on 0? As in...no...more...energy...
~Thursday, April 25, 2002~11:54 a.m.~
Yeah, so a large drag queen named "Lethal Weapon" attempted to set me up with the only straight guy last night. What has my life come to when a drag queen is playing matchmaker with me? Still we had fun... :)
~Wednesday, April 24, 2002~10:50 a.m.~
Hello peoples...Last night was purty fun. It was Megan's 21st Bday, so we went out to get her wasted, because that is the tradition right? I drank a bit myself too. ;) Uptown had this pay $2, drink stuff for free...that was cool...we went to (in no particular order) the Manhattan, Boneshakers, Molly O'Sheas (I like that place...), Classic City Saloon, Half Moon (didn't get anything there, creepy lil' place), Boar's Head, the Globe, Uptown Lounge...and I can't remember if we went anywhere else. Crazy...I am still getting used to the whole 21 thing...I love Midori Sours like ya wouldn't believe, because they don't taste like alcohol. :)
Today I woke up and prepared to take a freezing cold shower. We haven't had gas in a week cuz the evil people turned it off (I swear I called the last month to switch over the account, but apparently I must have done it in my dreams cuz they say I didn't.) So we haven't had warm water since last Friday. So I did my usual fill the bathtub up with enough water to reach up to my ankles, then stuck my hand in to see just how cold it would be...The water was hot! I couldn't believe it! The gas man came this morning and turned the gas back on. I was ecstatic! YAY HOT WATER!!!
~Monday, April 22, 2002~11:44 p.m.~
I seem to be cursed with straightness...I love men! I can't help it. Try as I might...I just keep meeting them, and loving them more. Gr...argh...What's up with this? I think no matter how many hurt me, no matter how much they hurt me, I will still love them. Does anybody know what I am talking about? :-p
~Friday, April 19, 2002~08:39 p.m.~
From my cousin:
Chris and his best friend had been playing volleyball. He had a silver convertible Corvette. I don't know the details of the wreck yet and may never know. I know he hit the back of a van. His best friend was killed instantly. Chris was alert for quite a while and talked to his family. Cord, his friend, was married and had a 2-year-old child. Both guys were from Clarksville and will be buried there. They had one more good friend who was not with them, and he is about to go crazy. I feel so sorry for them all.
Thanks for offering to come but keep your good memories of Chris. He was a quite a young man. He lived his life his way and accepted everybody, no matter how weird they were.
~Friday, April 19, 2002~01:02 p.m.~
Is it OK to cry for those you don't know extremely well? I never know if it what I am crying about is what other people would cry about. Right now, I am crying for him and the pain he went through and the pain Laurie must be feeling right now...My cousin Keilye waking up from her surgery (getting her gall bladder out at 19), and finding out her brother-in-law (although Laurie and Chris had gotten a divorce only a couple months ago) died in a horrible car accident. And when I cry for him, I think about the other people I have lost and I cry for them...Phyllis, Johnny, my grandmother, and so many more...If death is such a natural part of life, why does it have to hurt so much when it happens to others?
~Friday, April 19, 2002~12:55 p.m.~
Well...I don't know quite what to say. My cousins ex-husband died this morning. I only knew him a little - he went on a skiing trip with us a few years ago, and I had talked to him when we would go visit our cousins in Texas. This still makes me extremely sad. It is horrible...Here is the email my mother sent me, forwarded from my cousin...
Keilye was in surgery today, and Bart called us at the hospital to tell us Chris Sturch had died in a car accident. He and his best friend were driving his Corvette and ran into the back of a van. The car caught on fire. Chris got out, but was burnt over 100% of his body. His family got over there and were able to talk to him. He said. "No life support." He died this moring. I called Laurie. She was dressed and ready to head to work. She talked to her supervisor and she headed to Dallas. Needless to say, she is a wreck. Chris lived about 6 hours.
So...I think I will go lie down now...He wasn't even 30 years old...
~Wednesday, April 17, 2002~02:30 p.m.~
Woohoo! My biochem teacher curved our test scores, and raised them all 9 points, so instead of a 103, I know have a 112!!!
~Saturday, April 13, 2002~11:13 p.m.~
I actually had fun at the Dance thingy. I didn't expect it to be good, because I had no idea what I was ushering for at the Classic Center. It was really good though, and we got to sit and watch the whole thing. Just had to wear those stupid ties and vests...but that was OK...we got a free show (we being me and Rachel). Then we went to the Grill and had yummy food which I probably should not have had! But it was still good. So now it is time to watch Zoolander. Indeed.
~Saturday, April 13, 2002~12:56 a.m.~
Well, today was a mediocre day...Got my 2nd biochem test back - made an 81, which is better than I thought I would get. Keeps me hopeful for what I got on the 3rd test...It's that time of the month again, so I'm in some serious cramping pain at the moment. I skipped Relay for Life because walking around in the cold rain clutching the general area of my uterus/stomach for 15 hours just didn't seem like a whole lot of fun! I thought I had given up my shift, but it turns out Jana thought I wanted my Saturday shift taken, even though I don't have a Saturday shift...Go figure. So I get a call at 515pm from Eddie saying "Hey, April, you're supposed to be here right now." Jana is nowhere to be found to see if she can work for me, so I have to rush over in my car in the pouring rain to go work, all the while attempting not to throw up and almost in tears from the pain. It got better after a little while, but not much! Dear Martha wanted me to read every single piece of mail, which I did through clenched teeth. She's like "you aren't sounding like you're feeling very good..." then proceeds to give me a rundown on the happenings of Harry Potter, even though I have read all the books. I skipped biochem and physics to go get football tickets, then went and lied down at home...But was rudely awakened by Eddie of course (see above). But tonite Megan and I watched Serendipity, with Rachel and Miranda because apparently they didn't want to hang with us. They used us for our tv but didn't invite us over...Hmph...Ever feel unloved and unwanted? Ah well, we made brownies and commenced playing Tony Hawk. We didn't win the lottery. Maybe next time. Haha. Anywho, time to go get some sleep and curl up and try not to hurt anymore! This period thing is getting old. I found myself glaring at all the males in Reed as they passed by the desk today, thinking evil thoughts. I'm not really making sense if you could tell...Off to bed before I say too much. ;-) Too late huh?
~Friday, April 12, 2002~01:15 a.m.~
Found this somewhere, decided to post...Kinda silly...I found it amusing at least.
THE VERY SECRET DIARY OF GIMLI SON OF GLOIN
DAY ONE
Grr. Argh.
DAY TWO
Faffing about in Rivendell with stuck-up elves v. bad for my digestion. Have asked Elrond to move me to second floor as cannot get into bathroom here without being subjected to sight of hobbits bathing amongst scented candles. Is ridiculous. Got splashed with strawberry bath foam yesterday. On plus side, beard now silky and conditioned.
DAY THREE
Elrond refuses to move my room. Walked in on hobbits again this morning. What WERE they doing with that carrot? Inbred bunch of halfwits, no wonder they can’t even grow decent beards.
DAY SEVEN
Suspect Aragorn son of Arathorn of being pervy hobbit-fancier. Completely ignoring hottie elf fiancèe in favor of barging about with hairy-footed gnomes in leather breeches. Fortunately I, Gimli son of Gloin, am here to take care of her loneliness. Later. Elf women just the right height to keep my ears warm. Go me!
DAY NINE
Have agreed to go on Quest. Arwen getting awfully grabby. Gimli son of Gloin will not be tied down. Would rather spend time with touchy-feely hobbits and poncy elves than hang about Rivendell taking about ‘our relationship.?
DAY THIRTEEN
V. cold on top of Caradhras. Big fight over who got to carry hobbits up the mountain. Did not participate as was busy showing Legolas how to get hair braided just right. Fight ended when Aragorn picked up Ringbearer and stuffed him in his trousers. That’s right, Isildur’s Heir. Suffocate the Ringbearer. Honestly, these people.
DAY FOURTEEN
In Mines of Moria. May have made slight miscalculation, as it seems that cousin Balin has been dead for at least sixty years. Suppose it should have occurred to me that has been a while since last got Christmas card from the Moria folks. Still, cannot be expected to keep track of everything.
DAY FIFTEEN
Gandalf fell into shadow. Hobbits used as excuse to have teary cuddlefest on rocks. Suffered manly embrace from Boromir, although he kept jabbing Horn of Gondor into my solar plexus. At least, hope that was the Horn of Gondor. Does not bear thinking about if not.
DAY SIXTEEN
Legolas told me Aragorn is way into Frodo. Sam will kill him if he tries anything. Suggested to Legolas that we might want a leader who is less of a lech. Legolas then asked if I wanted to take a bath with him. Beginning to suspect that all that Elvish poetry about the glory of warrior-bonds between men just big cover-up for illicit spanking games.
DAY TWENTY
In Lothlorien. Galadriel quite the babe. While hobbits off power cuddling and Boromir chasing Aragorn, had time to show her a few dwarf tricks. Nothing fancy, just a bit of Hide the Helmet and Delving In The Mines. V. satisfactory for everyone, except possibly Celeborn. On second thought, maybe that was Celeborn. Cannot much tell difference with elves.
DAY TWENTY-TWO
Left Lothlorien. Have been paddling in boats for days. Am getting v. lonely. Hobbits looking not so bad. Rather cute in fact, despite mullet haircuts. Cannot get near Frodo without getting bitten on kneecaps by Sam, and Pippin dating Boromir, so will see if perhaps Merry wants to take a nice moonlit stroll tonight. Hurrah for warrior-bonds between men.
~Thursday, April 11, 2002~12:45 a.m.~
So what is up with me, you would like to know? Nothing much at all, really. I am convinced I am getting sick at the moment, but who knows? Right now I feel like I ate too much, which I did...So..yeah...I'm going to bed. Mmhmm...I made a 94 on my Fungus test! YAY!
~Sunday, April 7, 2002~07:01 p.m.~
Ugh, I have a huge biochem exam tomorrow. I hate glycolysis and the Kreb's Cycle. They need to both die a painful death. I can't wait till this semester is over. Mostly I can't wait until I get to go to Washington. :) I can't find enough information about the islands to satisfy my curiousity. If you know anything about the San Juan Islands, let me know! My parents said it is beautiful. I can't wait to live on an island. I LOVE the ocean. Pacific, Atlantic, Indian...you name it, I love it! I never thought I'd get sick of Athens...I am not sick of UGA, I just need a change of scenery!
~Thursday, April 4, 2002~05:23 p.m.~ I've had a bad day again...
Argh, well today wasn't totally bad. But it started off with me waking up late, then spilling koolaid all over my shirt as I was rushing out the door with my breakfast in hands. Jeff and I went shopping which was fun, but I spent too much money. Just found out my mom gave one of my cats away to an 80 year old woman. Oreo doesn't even like women. He likes men. But I get no say in the matter, because she has already given him away. Isn't that nice of her? She didn't even ask my dad, and my dad likes Oreo. And I have a humongous test on Monday and nobody else seems like they have anything to do, they haven't a care in the world. What is up with this? Where did all my studious friends go? OK, time to lock my door and get to work. I'll be in a better mood later. I promise.

I'm soooo tired and I have a test in 9 hours. Dammit...By the way, to continue with the chat thing that was previously on the left hand of the page, click on the link that says Click here for Maypril's Chatterbox. :) It'll pop up a window. I just found that easier and it takes up less room on the pita. Also, check out my new test page. You will see now more tests on this pita, so checkout maypriltests.pitas.com if you want to see 'em and experience 'em.

Oh no! My pita page is gone! APRIL FOOLS!!!! Hey, bad pun. April fools you...It's April Fools Day. Get it?? HAHAHA. I crack myself up. 21 years of hearing those types of jokes about my name has led me to go nuts. Just thought you would like to know. Toodles!
