Tonight is my little cousins b-day so I am going over there. I think he is like 9 now or something. I am not really good at keeping up on peoples ages. I even forget my own sometimes. This may also be do to the fact that I am constantly mistaken for a 16 year old. Can someone tell me what is up with this??

OK so I got this crazy idea, who knows it could have been from reading all these self improvment blogs. But anyway I decided I could stand to loose a few pounds, and I am going on a diet. Well I don't like to call it a diet, I am just trying to eat better and loose weight while I am at it. I will also be exercising too even though I skipped it tonight. Its about time I got off my fat butt and started this. So I have been doing really well lately. This was my first official day. I had chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast, then pizza for lunch. I didn't have dinner because I wasn't hungry, but my brother brought me a hot fudge sundae from Mac Donalds with extra fudge even. :) Mmmmmmmmmmmm that was so good. So I think I am now definatly on my way to a hot bod. But seriously I am going to try to loose wieght. I want to look cute in those little dresses I have for the summer.

Ack! I can't belive it I just saw my site on netscape and it looks like crap! I am not sure if it is netscape or the resolution at which I was viewing it but either way my dotted lines weren't lining up. Will someone who has netscape please e-mail me and tell me if everything is look ok. And it it looks plain crappy expalin what it looks like so I can try and fix this. This really gets to me, here I am thinking everyone is viewing my page and its looking the same but it doesn't :( Oh well, I am thinking it was just his resolution. I know this page doesn't look right in anything under 800x600 but it is so hard to make everything fit right. :( Oh well, this is yet another reason why I suck.

So now that I have my own domain, I decided to make my own 404 not found error page. I had to use this pandamonium dingbat I just dowloaded. It was to cute not to use it. So anyway here is the link. I really hope nobody comes accross it since I shouldn't have any broken links. Today was a good day, especially since the power was shut off at my Uni again. :) I was quite happy to miss out on biochem lecture on a friday. I have to get my butt in gear though and study big time this weekend. I have a biochem exam and I want to do well. Its time to learn those lipids and sugars.
So apperently that little joke in the last entry is quite old and I am way behind with the times. You don't need to tell me how dweeby I am, I already know it. I think I am improving my spelling skills since I haven't been typing the journal in word first, don't you? I think that was one of my resolutions for the year, to learn how to spell. So at least it seems like I am working on that one. I will have to get to the rest of those resolutions another time.

ok I have to tell this joke before I forget it. I heard it in chem class and I thought it was too cute, although it will probably sound really stupid when I write this. I am so bad a joke delivery and I will probably ruin when I write it. So anyway did you hear about the two Na atoms? These two Na atoms were walking down the street and one of them says "Oh damn I think I lost an electron!" and then the other says "are you sure?" and then the first Na says "I am positive." harharhar Did you get it??? Ok so its probably an old joke and you all have heard it but I didn't before yesterday, and it made me laugh. I probably ruined it huh. Oh well i tried. At least I didn't attempt the one about the bunny crossing the street. I would have seriously killed that one. This just shows what a big dork I am, but I am not afraid to show my dorkienss any longer. :) Time to get ready for work.

I figured out my schedule for next quarter and it seems to be good. My brain will be taking a little break. I can't believe I already have to register Feb. 6th. So anyway I will be taking Plant Anatomy, Soil Science, and Art of the Classical World. I have been wanting to take that art class for some time now. Art history is one of my favorite subjects, and its my last upper division elective I need to take. I was sort of dissapointed because Plant Ecology was suppose to be offered but it isn't. :( Oh well... Its wierd its like those were the only classes I could register for this quarter because I have taken everything else. So it seems like I should be a well educated person; after all I have taken enough classes to get myself a degree really, and now that I am double majoring I should end up graduating with my head full of knowledge. So then, why do I still feel like a big idiot sometimes? I am just glad I will have no more physics and I will be completely done with chem. Now I just have to complete my botany major. The soils science class has to be taken do to my botany major, that is one thing I am not looking forward to. Ita soil science and mycology that I dread, I really hope they offer phycology so I can forget about taking mycology. I would rather do algae than fungi any day.

Ok so I have moved. :) I can't belive I had time to do all this. I was working on my layout when I really should have been doing my homework. Oh well, I think I like it. Tell me if you do.
2001-01-21
ok so I think there are a few things I think you should know. I am not going to be at this URL for much longer. Sadly gypsy will be closing soon, and I will have to pick up my things and move. But don't fret I will still be around, I am just going to move my address. I bought a domain, and once I get that stuff together I will be moving there. If you want to be updated on the move just join the mailing list and i will give all the info as to where I will be. I am working on a possible new layout for my new domain, and i am hopeing it will at least be semi cute. So all this stuff really should'nt take too long, I am working on it. The domain is coming soon, I promise. :)

So how was your day? My was sort of eh. I have too much stuff to do, and so little time; I need to practive some time management. So while I have been the responsible, and diligent student that I am, I skiped the homeowrk and have been midlessly staring at my moniter all evening. I went surfing around and found this site. Honeslty it makes me seem a whole lot deeper then I really am. What it should say is that I am a girl who enjoys naps, and appreciates long periods of silence so she can let her mind go blank because she would really rather think about nothing ( well that is not totally true). Instead of the fact that it claims that I "find pleasure in literature, in poetry". That is far from the truth, really it is.
My eyes are getting bad. I discovered if I go to get food I need to bring my glasses or else I won't be able to read anything 5 feet away from me. I also made a decision today. If I go to work on Sunday and there are different anemones in the tank then there were the last sunday I worked I am going to have to quit. I can't stand by and watch kids and their parents poke and prod these cute animals to death. Its just not something I am into.

What a day. The new biotechnology building at my University caught on fire today so my one class for the day started a little late. At least they didn't shut down the power at my school today again. I have physics and biochem homework today, and I am dying because I am sick. I feel like I can't do any work because my head is going to explode from all the pressure built up from my stuffy nose. Its not nice at all. I ditched work today too so I could get some work done. I did a bit but I have a ton still to get done. Sometimes I honestly just feel like quiting, and I want to kick myself for doing a double major. I want to be one of those hermits who secludes themselves in a cabin so I don't have to work a day in my life. I would rather survive on nuts and berries out in the middle of nowhere. I really am not very self sufficeint so that it wouldn't work. I need to get some plans for my life.

Isn't it cute, its a little Naomi action figure. It doesn't exactly look like me. This is mainly due to the fact that I couldn't find the right hair. I think its cute though, although it would have been nice if I could have replicated my dog as well. My dog is a little chubbier. Oh no I just read an e-mail, and it says my journal postings have been getting better. I now feel the pressure is on to make these good, but honestly I don't think I can do that. This is to be continued I have been asked to take my dogs out on a walk...
ok I am back now, and my hands have frozen stiff. Update for the page: I am now a memeber of the geek goddess ring, woohoo for me. :) I really should get to that physics homework now and finally get it out of the way. I have been procrastinating way to long.

I have begun painting again, but I am not satisfied with what I have done at all. I will probably give up and leave my painting supplies to gather dust again under my bed. I have been very unproductive lately, in fact I have done a grand total of nothing this weekend. I proabably should just finish that physics and biochem just to get it over with. I kind of enjoyed laying around to day and doing nothing. It was a good day for that since it was raining again here. I needed the rest too, I think I am catching a cold once again. :(
Well I think I have finally found a way to finally improve my spelling. I am not going to write my journal in Word anymore because I think spell check just encourages my bad spelling ways. I might actually look up the word I am struggling with, and that way the correct spelling might actually stick in my head. But then agian most of my errors are caused out of laziness to learn how to type right, and use the right fingers for the right buttons, and my lack of energy fot proof reading. Oh well I suck and I know it...

Well sometimes things happen that are hard to believe. Lately I have been getting about 15-20 hits a day, which isn't to bad for me, and I never really expected more. I am pretty happy with the small amount of visitors I get on the internet. But anyway, the other day I submitted my site to college-cams.com, with absolutely no expectations. In fact, I kind of forgot I even submitted myself there sometime last week. So I just came back from seeing Chocolat (which was ok) and I get online to check my stats. To my surprise I have 85 hits so far today, which is a record for me, most of course coming form college-cam.com. So I'm not quite sure what to make of this. Do I really want a ton of people looking at me everyday? I just hope I don't get any negative attention from all these hits. The purpose of my cam is not for me to get compliments from guys so they could tell me they think I am cute, or to get criticism from people telling me that I am not so cute, and what the heck am I doing with a cam. Sometimes I wonder why I set up that cam anyway. It was originally using to communicate with my then overseas friend (now boyfriend), but then I found out its a cool way to try and work on my ego. I have this aim, that one day I will be totally self-absorbed and self centered just like most girls I know. I am working on it, but it’s a little hard when you have the fat/chubby girl syndrome. I have been told on occasion that I am neither ugly nor chubby, but its hard to break the syndrome when you have to look in the mirror in the morning. Oh no is this turning into some self pity thing? Wow I think it is actually freaking me out, and I am afraid that with all these hits, people might start judging me based on looks, which is something I am not fond of, and not use to. Lets get this straight; I am the girl with the personality, not the one with the looks. The cam is a little side thing, its not the main focus of my site. I find it hard to make a site dedicated solely on what I look like. Well anyway I guess I am just wondering if the days of only 10 hits will only be a memory, in some ways I hope not.
update @ 11:04pm
as I go to bed the count has reached 134, its really odd...

Today seems like such a sad day. It was gloomy and raining again in Los Angeles. Rain in Los Angles is wierd. One day it will be 80 degrees F, and the next day it drops down to 50 and its all rainy. So I am a wimp when it comes ot weather and I have huge complaints when it is 50 out side. Well I grew up here, so sun is all I know and I figure I have an excuse.
I didn't have class today because we are having power shortages out here and California, and they shut down the power at my Uni, so class was cancelled. So that was pretty cool. I finally got my hair cut too which was serioulsy necessary.
Since i have been doing this blogger thing I have skipped the whole writing my journal in Word before I upload it. I really should still do that since my spelling is really bad, and I need all of the red underlines.
These last few days I have been struggling with topic to write about. My journal has changed gradually from entries which were just me goofing around, to entries which are just filled with complaints from me. They must suck.
I am bored at the moment, dowloading another mp3. Lately everytime I here a song I once liked, but would be really hard to find. So I get to my computer as fast as possible so I can get it before I forget. I seem to forget most of them though. Right now I am dowloading Lush, "Lady Killer" while I freeze my buns off in this 50 degree weather, while I sit at my computer bored.

So it seems that rain does funny things to my hair, ita a bit poofy at the moment. It actually rained today in LA, that is someting new for the season. Its a good thing too, now maybe all the hills will stop burning. But anyway I decided I really hate Mondays because its filled with physics, biochemistry, and a lot of waiting in between. I really wish I had my classes back to back so I can go to class then get home. I hate having a two hour break in between. Anyhow Biochem is getting better, and I have to think of a topic for my Independant Study. I have been thinking instead of drinking orange juice every hour I will try apple juice interspersed with hot tea. I really grew to like tea since my trip across the pond. I also think its time for me to get a hair cut. I haven't cut it since march, and I only need a trim. I saw a split end the other day. I am lucky I have thick hair that is not easily damaged or else I would have some really frayed ends. This time I am not waiting for a traumatic event to cut my hair, its just for maintanace purposes. Oh one more thing, I saw chuck sitting in his office again, I think I will pass by there daily now. ;)

So I went to work today and it wasn't so bad. Although now that I think about it I feel sorry for all the little animals I have to watch while I am there. Here are these cute harmless anemones, and then these vicious kids come to poke and prod them. Its like their whole life revolves around being poked and proded. It must be a sad life, and I don't think they like it much, one of them started looking funny by the time I had to leave and go and do something else. But anyway, I have been a little sad lately because there are all these things I want, but I can't afford. Its like I now have a job, so I have money, but its not enough for the stuff I need and REALLY want. I want a domain but I have thought about getting that before and its probably not going to happen. Plus, I am not sure If I want to fork out money for that. But I also want to go on a trip to a far off country. I am so sad I might not be able to save up in time for March. :( I just hope I eventually get the things that I want. This has just got me all discombobulated. To top it off I have a really crappy quarter. My Biochem prof is NOT ENTERTAINING, my physics prof is not cute, and my kelp forest ecology class is just wierd. I hope I make through.

Ok so I got really tired of archiving my own journal entries, so I decided to follow the rest of the world and use blogger. So anyway this is much easier. I am going to work tomorrow, and that really sucks, its like my weekend is over already. :( Ok I am too tired to post now I have been e-mailing people like crazy, and now I have typing cramp. I guess that is what I get for slacking off and not writing people back. Oh and there is a link to the old journal below.
