Nobody wants to join my book club....It's not that hard of a read

Hello everybody! What's new? Me, not much. I've been working like a dog! I was very sick, but still worked 9-6 Saturday, 9-9 Monday and 9-6 today. I have to work an other 9-9 tomorrow, but after that, it's off to Nova Scotia for me :) My dad and I were watching a Backstreet boys commercial today and the commercial said something along the lines of the best band of all times. My dad looked right at me and said, quite matter-of-factly, "I don't really think that they are the best in the world; they're not as good as Kiss, or AC/CD." This struck me funny because I usually compare them to other boy bands, not "good" bands. I thought it was cool of my dad to say that though.

Yep, so off to Nova Scotia for me and possibly Bob. I don't really know if he'll go though. The trip may mean that he has to call in sick for work when he's not actually sick. Stupid, responsible boyfriend. You called in sick for that fucking musical thing. GRRRR
What can you do?

Sam says, "What the hell, call in sick boy!"

I don't know what to put for a title

Hi everybody!! For some strange reason, I cannot open other people's blogger pages, so I read a book today. I have a nasty habbit of reading half a book and then not finishing it, but this time I actually read through the whole thing. My book was Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone. Great book, surprise ending! This is one of the best books I have read in a while. I even understood all of the big words! I really hate the cliffhanger ending it had though, now I want to go out and buy all of the other Harry Potter books. Geez Louise, they really know how to con poor kids out of their money, or poor eighteen year olds at least. If anyone wants to join the Amber's book club, the first book on your reading list is Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. We may not get to meet the author at dinner like Oprah does, but we can go out for dinner and you don't even have to read the book. Please send me an email (ambergeddes@hotmail.com) if you want to join my book club, which will just turn out to be an eating club, but that's fine with me.

Only one glass of coke today! Yay! I did go to shoppers for more of their life brand pop. This time I decided on a non-cola and I picked Life Up. It was pretty tasty, but a little flat. Kinda like me. Well I should get going to bed now.
In true Taylor style, Peace out.

It’s not my place in the 9-5 world

I couldn’t agree with those silly Ramones more. I have been working all day. Eight hours and I don’t even get my afternoon nap. What’s up with that? My day did go by quite quickly and I like that. I am so tired now though! But I will not nap, not now. I think that I am going to start going to bed at about ten o’clock now so I won’t be tired in the days. I’m also cutting back on the amount of coke that I drink a day. I’m beginning to realize how brown my teeth have gotten. I drink about eight glasses and, or cans of coke a day. Today I had two. I think that I am doing well. I asked my mom to get my teeth whitened and she laughed at me. She’s going to start buying me sprite instead because it’s cheaper.

I think that some of my overdue good karma is slowly creeping up on me through all of the great things that are happening to my friends. I really wanted the karma to come directly to me, but seeing my friends happy is good enough, I guess! Yay for Jill!!! All for Jill, trampolines, or nothing. I am very jealous. I think that the first thing that I am going to buy when I pay my debts off is a trampoline.

hehehe I am talking to Tiffany and I just said something funny. "I was going to call but my line, I was on it."

Sam says, “What the hell?”

I am home...again.

I had a good time in PEI as usual. The weekend seemed to go by too fast and the bus ride too slow. It would be nice to own a car. I think that I am going to save some money and buy a shitty $1000 dollar car or cheaper. One thousand is as high as I will go though. We all know how lazy I am and how far in debt I am so the car thing probably won't happen. To travel back and forth to PEI every week will cost me about $224 a month. That said, see you in September island folk!

Grrr! I am going through my icq list and all of these people from high school are on it. Well they were, I have deleted most of them. I am tired of talking about the same old people who I never cared about and I wish that they would all stop prying at me for information that is only going to be used as gossip in common I-told-you-so situations. No, I am not with Jamie anymore. Yes, we are still friends. Yes, I've found someone else. His name is Bobby. He's tall and blond. Yes, we are still going out even though it is summer. I am very happy. Story of my fucking life. Is there anything else that we could talk about? I really hate it because all of these good girl morons went to university and finally started having a life. All they talk about is drinking and such, and university parties and sex. Glad to see that you've finally realized that you are human too. Where were you when I wanted to party in grade ten? Oh yeah, you were talking to your ministers about me and trying to figure out how I can get my life back on track. Stop talking to me drunk and pretending you're cool. It's not working.

I clipped my fingernails and cut my thumb. I have no idea how and it kinda hurts. OUCH!

I have a friend who wanted me to hook them up with some stuff. I am checking it out now!!
I have to start job 1 tomorrow and look for job 3. I hate moving, I hate the work that goes into involuntary breathing! Why would I want one job let alone three!!! I really want one of the third jobs that I am applying to. I think that they have a full staff, but it's a skateboard store and I would get 40% off of everything. Why not try?

All abord the Payne train!!

Sam says, "What the hell?"

Do do do

Hi! I finally got a job! YAY for ME! It's at the dollarama and it's only minimum wage, but it's full time. I thought that my dad would be proud of me for getting a full-time job, but he wants me to go apply for a part-time job for the evenings. I already have an other part-time job at Staples.

"I've worked three jobs all of my life. There's no reason why you can't do it." That's what my dad told me.

My life is hell. Soon to be a rich hell, that is!

AHHHHHHH

It is hard making the transition from T1 to 56k!!! I am downloading songs at 3.53 k/s! I am going CRAZY!

BONJOURNO That's Italian


I am coming to PEI tomorrow! Yay! Trying to get a fake id for Myron's. I think that Sam is coming too! WOO HOO!!!

Once More, I Am Hated


I am having an other good/bad day. This vicious cycle of not knowing what kind of a mood I am in is starting to drive me batty. I can be somewhat happy one minute, completely depressed the next and then super hyper after that. It is really strange and tiring. I am really hating home which I think is funny. I have just spent the last eight months in PEI complaining about how bad it is and how much I wanted to go home and now I am here and I can’t stand it! People have changed, I have changed and my two worlds are clashing. Why can’t they just amalgamate and deliver me to my well-deserved utopia? I don’t ask for much – really.

I would like to have a full-time job. Since my parents will not let me move to PEI, ideally, a full-time job could keep me busy on the weekdays and all of my days off could be spent on the island. Other than the exceptionally expensive cost of my commuting, I do not think that this is such a bad idea. I still think that by letting me move to PEI, it would benefit both my parents and me. My parents and I fight everyday and that would end. They are also the cheapest people in the world and wouldn’t be able to blame me for any of their problems and I would be content. Summer sucks ass and I hate my hometown and all of its residents. I am not having a good time. My friend count is very low and I have no idea what I did to make this happen, oh yeah maybe it is hating everybody. The four friends that I do have are always at work.

I still don’t know what I want this summer, but I know what I don’t want. I don’t want to be here. I’m not asking for much and I don’t see how this “problem” can be causing anyone in my family an inconvenience. I do however see why my parents don’t want me to leave. The only place I have to go is to the boys’ apartment. Living with five boys would be a whole lot of fun, but for some reason my parents think that it wouldn’t look very respectable. I am not going to be in the same province as they are so I do not know what respect they have to lose. I feel as though I am being jailed in this house of tension. I have never been so stressed out in my life.

It is hard to argue my points of leaving when I am not being listened to. When not being paid attention to, I yell. That is just how I am. Perhaps this is a selfish attempt to be recognized, but I have a lot to say. Yelling causes more fights and my patience is running low.

Since I have made my initial plea to leave my house and move to a province that may hire me to work somewhere (I don’t care where!) I am not even allowed to visit PEI. This is very nazi-ish and I of course plan to rebel. I have never been a rebellious-type child and I think that now that I am legally an adult, I should be able to make my own decisions. If only I could have the balls to actually say this to my parents. If I did have balls though, I would look funny.

Anniversary Story

Hi! I have internet access now at my house. I love it. I went to PEI last week and I had a blast. I didn't want to come home and now that I am home, I don't want to be here. But other than that and the not having a job thing, I am fine. Sort of anyway. I really don't want to be here.

Last wednesday Bob and I celebrated our six-month anniversary. What a crazy day!!!! We went out for lunch at Smitty's and I got really sick on the way home and I threw up at Burger King. I felt really bad because Bob doesn't have much money and I went and threw up all of the dinner that he had just bought for me. To make anniversary matters worse, he had to work and then he called from work to tell me that he was going to a party after his shift. Naturally, I got very mad and I was looking for blood. I didn't want to talk to him or hang out with him. I just wanted to kick some ass. Here's what makes my story worse:

"Hi Amber, I lied to you and told you that I wasn't coming home so I could have some more time to buy you presents."

Not only did I feel bad for throwing up that day, but I had just spent a whole shift of Bob's badmouthing him, only to find more presents for me. I truly am hated by a greater power.

Posty posty post post

Hi there!! My best friend Shane, just recently got suspended from school. A guy smashed a pile of books in his face so he beat him up and sent him to the hospital. Shane has never been in a fight before. That was fine and he got suspended which he should have because fighting is wrong. The guy that he beat just happened to be the only black guy that goes to Riverview High. Mister Prescott the school’s principal is making Shane go to a few anger management classes to learn how to control his temper. Shane also has to learn how to keep “his racist opinions” to himself. Shane is not a racist and the black guy that started the fight didn’t get suspended. How fair is that? I am kinda mad, but what can I do?

This is what Shane had to say to me, “Just because I happened to beat up the only black guy at school doesn’t mean that I am racist and I would’ve kicked his ass no matter what colour his skin would have been. He pissed me off, hit me in the face with his books, so I hit him. A lot.”

Oh children when will you learn? Can’t we all just get along?
