Amazing, Amazing, and Amazing

I guess i should write on here once in a while huh? To think, I have only posted once in Devemeber...that's crazy. But not surprising considering how busy I have been lately. With all the gatherings, parties, presents, and all the other things that come along with the season...I just have not found time to sit down at the computer and pour out my heart on the internet. I guess I don't really pour out my heart, more like my mind but it's almost the same thing.
This has been an amazing Christmas. I think part of it may be that before all the gift-giving and food started, I made sure my head and heart were in the right place. I must say, it's harder than it sounds - making sure you don't concentrate on yourself at Christmas is quite difficult.
But, I must say that I have also gotten some amzing gifts this year too! Like my amp, and the Bourne movies, and all the candies. And not to mention the cell phone I got mor my birthday...I definalty do not deserve any of those gifts but I sure do not mind having them.
Today, I got to sleep in til 11:00 and I am still in my pajamas for this morning. It is so wonderful to be able to relax alll day. I love it and won't get another chance like this for a while. But hopefully I can have Friday off and at least enjoy my day.
Well, this definalty has not been my longest post, but i do think that I will go now. It's been a pleasure to talk but I really need to tidy my room. But just watch, I will be reading or distracted some other way just as soon as I get off the computer. I will try to clean it whatever the case. Talk to you all alter!

Sexy Construction Workers

Sheri, I tried several times to start a new post but I cannot find enough things to talk about to complete one paragraph. But you are right, I do need to post again. But you must all also keep in mind that you know the user name and password.
I will start with how my day went. The morning went as usual...the afternoon was filled with cruising town with Katelyn and watching with amusement other people arguing with Mr. Kowalchuk. I don't know how to spell that correctly but I tried. Then I went to work. I was the only student worker in today and I kind of enjoyed it even though that means more work for me. I did dairy and went on the till. There were some cute construction people in. They are the ones working in Hecla. Today was their last day shopping at Co-op. It is quite sad, for I shall miss listening to their strange humor and gazing at their lovely faces. Well, maybe not quite that sad. After a lovely day at work...I came home....no way! I ate spaghetti and meat sauce. I phoned Kris right before this and sold her some Christmas raffle tickets. And Sheri, I am planning to call you about it but knowing myself I might possibly forget. I do believe that I am carrying on the lovely family tradition of short term memory loss.
Guess what!?! It is December 10 and we have not set up our Christmas tree yet. It's just craziness!
Well, I am not sure what else to write about so I will leave you with the lovely summary of my day....hope yours was worse than mine! Just kidding.

A Good, Relaxing, Sweatful Day

Well, the weekend was better than I expected and a lot longer as well. I didn't go to school til Thrusday and then there was no school today. Only one day of school for me! Yay! I also did some major renovations to my room. It looks really nice right now. I can't wait to go to sleep tonight even though I have to wake up at 8 tomorrow.
I found out that I don't have to work on Sunday so I am extremely pumped to watch the grey cup game. GO BOMBERS GO!!!! I really hope they win, but I am not counting on it. Just like I wasn't counting on winning that TV and it never happened. I was quite sad but I really did not expect results. Oh well.
I might be going to my first midget game this year. It's between Riverton and Arborg and Greg and Brett are playing for Arborg. I want Riverton to beat them so I can make fun of them!
Auntie Sylvia was here today making apple pies with mom. I want to eat them...they smell so good!
Dad just showed everyone his snot he blew out of his nose....YUCK!!!!!!!
That's about the excitment of my day. I was good and relaxing and sweatful.
Have a lovely day everyone!

Pumped For The Weekend!!!

I am so excited about this weekend. And I hope nothing will make it not a good weekend...that doesn't sound quite right but oh well. I really am looking forward to the swimming, shopping, and the pulling of Christmas tickets!! I hope it will be a good weekend.
It is just me and Aimee home right now, Kayley went to Keanna's for night. Yes!! Cory said that Kea had said that Cory should invite dad over for a sleepover too. I thought that was so cute. Cory had told her, he didn't think Stan would like sleeping in their basement. I think it went something like that.
Right now I am making some wild rice with a fine herb seasoning. I must say that Uncle Ben is a pretty good chef.
Well, let's review my day for it was full of exciting and wonderful things(I hope you hear sarcasm when you read that) Anyway, I baked cookies in the morning for the grad bakesale....and by the way, they never made it to the bakesale due to the lateness of Janette. After that, I went to school and found out that there was about 4 people in my Lit class so I left and went to help count money for the pizza fundraiser. There was about $5000 that we counted and we got to keep about $2000. So, I don't think we did to bad. Then during the next class--in which I was supposed to do a Chem test which no one showed up to--I deposited that money in the back. It took like half an hour to do that. My feet were sore. Then I went to work and did frozen, then dairy, and then I lifeted 6 bikes over my head. Then after that lovely excursion, I started cleaning off the back shelves...then I went home. I has been wonderful.
But I think that I am going to go now for my rice is done and calling my name! See you tomorrow!!!!!!!

My Mind Is Like Rabbit Trails

I always start to write a new post but I can't think of things to say. But since I haven't written in a while, I thought that I would try. I will start by saying that I was super duper excited that I got the whole weekend off. I got to sleep in this morning--something I haven't done in a long time. I have slept til 9 some mornings and according to Dad that is a sleep in. But I don't think that it is...but today, I slept til 11:30. Now that is a sleep in. I enjoyed it immensely. Mom also took advantage of having me home on a Saturday and put me to work. I slaved away all day! And you all know that I like to be sarcastic so I might as well admit that I didn't slave away ALL day--just half the day.
I also trimmed my own hair today...I didn't go crazy so don't worry. I just touched it up a bit--and I must say that it doesn't look to bad.
Sheri, do you remember the first person you "went out with"? His name was Linden Leopkey or however you spell that. How I ironic that him and Vince have the same last name eh?
I can't seem to keep my mind on the same subject for more than three sentences. It's kind of sickening but I just keep losing my train of thought.
And it happened again. And again.
This isn't working out so well. Maybe if you guys tell me what I should write about...I will have something to write. Newsflash!!! Okay, see you guys later!

I just scared myself...I forgot to put a title and when I went back to put one there...the post was gone! But I found it because thankfully it saves automatically. Well, goodbye again.

Something Is Crazy Wrong (or right) With Me...

Yes, it is true...something is different about these past two days--especially today. I have been so happy. Like truely honestly joyful. It is great! And even with my mishaps and what not, I have had a fantastic day. I hope everyone has one of these days. It is awesome! It is so awesome that I am writing on my blog twice in one day!! Crazy....
If you guys do not know all the details of my lovely day here there are;
- woke up an hour early like probably most people today
- went for a beautiful "run" like I mentioned earlier
- then I was late for church so I decided to go home but--
- I found out that my keys were locked in the van so--
- Auntie Anita helped me get them out but--
- I had a flat tire so--
- Auntie Anita drove me home
- Then I got to take the 1 ton to work and I must say that is one beast of a truck.
That's my eventful morning in point form. Now, I am about to have a bath and shave my legs, then Rachel is coming over and we are going to watch a movie...yay!
Okay, see you all later!

What A Wonderful Morning

Good morning everyone...at least for me it is morning. I woke up this morning and didn't realize that there was a time change thing. So, instead of waking up at 9 like I had thought, I woke up at 8. Thank you to mom who phoned and told me that I was an hour early. So, instead of sleeping for another hour, I put on my shoes, sweater, bra, and toque and braved the crispy morning air. I went for a run, which turned into a jog and then by the time I reached Roger and Anita's, my lovely run was more of a slow gait. Now, I have a bad cough because I think I breathed in to much freezing air. But I definitely enjoyed my excursion about the country side.

I had then planned to have a shower, shave my legs and lazily get ready for church but since my "run " took a little longer than I had planned, and I read Krista's lovely post, I decided that I would write on here. I might have time for a shower but I doubt it.

Work was actually good yesturday. I ususally don't enjoy Saturdays but it was good...I don't know why. Maybe because I only faced for about 15 minutes, or I got to go on till for like 2 hours, or maybe because everyone was in a good mood. It may be all of these things. And today I hope will be good to. I don't mind working Sunday's but I hate that I miss some family time. But since no one is home, I think I will enjoy work much more...and I don't have to open or close.

I am also happy to tell everyone that I did get the 16 17 18 weekend off so I will be going to the city...I can't wait!

Guess what you guess!?! I wasn't even scared all alone by myself in the middle of the night in the middle of no where...alone. But the thing is...I hate this door by the computer. But only at night because when it is dark I can't see out of it and it's so big so if by any chance there was someone out there....they could see me very well without being detected. But I think I let my imagination go to crazy sometimes.

I had a very lovely evening all by myself..when I got home I tidied a bit(yes, it's true but it seems to happen only when I am by myself) Then I made some perogies while listening to Celine Dion and then I watched Kickin' it Old School. Very dumb movie and in my opinion, not worth watching....trust me! And there was no cute guys in it at all. Then...I ate these....................

Jealous? I would be....andthe tasted delectable! And I guess that's how you spell it beacause my little spell checker is not working. Just sound it out and you'll know what I'm trying to say. Also, while I ate these scruptshus(hahaha I like the spelling on this one and I know it is wrong but since my spell check doesn't work, I spelled it so you can sound it out...) anyway continuing me sentence....I watched The Holiday. I like that movie...it is wonderful, and it has cute boys in it. :)

But I really should get going...this has taken me longer than I had suspected. But what's new eh?

But before I go....Krista, I apprieciate the post....I was also quite delectable! Thank you very much.

Now I must be on my way....see you all later!!!

Ode to Janette

This last picture sums Janette up the best I think. Crazy! But you can tell from the other pictures that with some work, she can pull off a great look that fits in with her 2nd oldest sister. I dont want to play favorites, but blondes do have more fun. Which reminds me-Im no longer blonde. Sheri didnt even say anything last time she saw me;) Look on my facebook!

Well I can tell this is going to be a boring day, until Kayley gets here. We're going to go to
Dollarama and buy lots of stuff, go to the mall and hang out there for awhile, go to safeway (and we will be saying "yawefas!") and ill let her pick out whatever she wants for supper, we'll have loud music going while we cook supper and sit down and watch a great movie together! is anyone jealous?? then we'll sleep in and i dont know what for the rest of the day. she might get kinda bored here. im also going to try and fit in some studying time. i have a child development exam on tuesday so i should be studying for that. i've learnt all the stuff before in my human development course my first semester at school, so its all review for me.

This is probably a long enough post, so ill end here for now. although i do plan on updating this thing once and awhile. i heard that they shut down accounts that havent been active for awhile, so being the wonderful sister i am, im saving janette the hassle of starting up a new account so she can blog once a month. Im sure everyone knows who this is....so i dont have to say it.

Have a wonderful weekend- and have fun at work Janette! (Buy me some food! Do you get a discount there?? )

CHOW! (as everyone at work seems to say...)

Guest Speaker!

In the very near future there will be a special 'guest speaker' on here. She is a bright and extremly beautiful woman. So keep checking back regularly!

p.s does your nose bleed too when you pick it lots???

Tis all for now, Janette

This is my sweet albino carrot. It may look normal, maybe just bad lighting but compared to a normal carrot, this one is as white as Sheri's as....bum! And guess what!?! It didn't take five hours to upload that picture. That's pretty crazy if you ask me. So, with no further ado...I shall show you the picture of my albino carrot with it's friend the normal carrot..........while I am doing this, I would like to say that it is very annoying if someone starts talking to me on MSN when I am set to away....it means that I am away(even if I'm not) it means I am not there to talk so don't talk to me! Now that I got that off my chest......

Isn't it crazy! I enjoyed taking the pictures too. Yippee! Well, I hoped you all like those pictures.

I worked today and it was actually okay for once. I got to be on the till for like a whole hour. It was great...much more interesting than stocking shelves or facing...trust me! But ya, that's about it...I got a very painful work injury but I don't think it is something I want to share on the Internet...it is quite personal, so if you want to know...ask me in person...when we are alone. But I can tell you that I think I now know what a mammogram feels like....but maybe worse. Yup, pretty crazy.

I watched a weird movie the other day called the Moulin Rouge. Moulin is said like Mulan like on Mulan. Ya, anyway, this movie was very strange and I am not sure what to think of it yet...perhaps you should watch it and decided for yourself. But the guy acting in it has this very amazing voice and if any guy would sing to me the way he sings in the movie....I think I would die...like the girl in the movie...or maybe not the same way but defiantly die. And he was really cute...a bonus! I have been having infatuations all week. It's crazy. Like this one guy in my school.....

We have this grad fundraiser for Halloween and I have to dress up like Frankenstein and serve kids peeled grapes and spaghetti. I don't really want to do it but I guess I will. During our meeting today, Neil, Kaitlan T, Kody T, and myself played sing star. It was so funny watching people sing...and it was also fun singing....Neil beat me which angered me but I didn't really know the song so I have an excuse.

But I think that is all for now.

I Really Want to Smash This Computer into Many Itsy Bitsy Parts and Drown Them All

You guys are so dumb because you cannot figure out what my password is. But perhaps I should say thank;you again for reading my blog. I do hope you will figure it out. And Sheri, I will talk to you in a minute...mom is on the phone with you right now...and I will tell you my password. And now I have told you.
I now have a picture to show you;
But now the uploading picture thing is not working, I will try again at the end of my post. Sorry to disappoint you all.
Guess what guys!?! I am cutting my fingernails. I haven't done so in a long time and they are very long and it is near to impossible to play guitar properly so I decided it was time to saw away at the long pieces of nail.
Sheri, I now know what song Jay requested for Sarah....I Don't Want You to Go by Carolyn Dawn Johnson. The song goes like this;
Monday mornin' is such a rush
Here it is again sneakin' up on
This the part you know I don't like
We say goodbye and then we kiss goodnight
I know it's one o'clock
And we said you'd be gone by ten
So much for those eight hours
I swore that I'd get in
I know I should get some sleep
I'm at the beginnin' of another long week
But I don't want you to go
No I don't want you to go
I guess another minute wouldn't do no harm
Why not spend it in each other's arms
Cause I don't want you to go
No I don't want you to go
We always say just one more kiss
But it always seems to never end like this
A few dozen then a couple more
Before we know it it's after four
I know tomorrow my best friend will be my coffee cup
Cause here we go again
Watchin' the sun come up
Yeah, I know I should get some sleep

And so on and so forth. I think that was so sweet of him. But I really do not feel like typing much more. Sorry for the unexciting blog entry.
I'll try that picture once more;
And it still doesn't work. And this computer is so slow and I am getting very very angry at its slowness. It took me at least five minutes to write that last sentence. Ugh!
Okay, goodbye!

Me, Myslef, and I...and Janette!

Okay, I got the hint guys...and Kris, I will give you my user name and password so you can be my guest speaker. My user name is my old email address, bratwurst_1824@hotmail.com, and somewhere in this blog will be my password, see if you can figure it out. If you need help I told Sheri what it was.
So, you want me to write about you eh? I'm not to sure if there is anything to write about my big sisters. Hmm, nope I don't think so. I guess we'll move onto a better subject....
I am learning German, did you know that? It's quite exciting. I hope to be fluent by Christmas and believe you me(Mom always says that)I will be pretty good by then. Maybe I'll even recite the Christmas story in German.
Since we are on the subject of Christmas, did you all take note of the wish list I have posted on the side of my blog. I think you should really check that out!
Okay, I am starting to think about which college I will go to in the near future. There are two options at the moment. They are, Blanche MacDonald Center and Prairie Bible College. I would do a make-up artistry program at the Blanche thing and mission aviation at the Prairie thing. I would like to do both so I'm not sure.
What else? Oh, I know...I want to never go on Facebook again. In fact, it doesn't even deserve to be uppercase so...facebook. That's better.
You guys, the thing is, I try to post but the computers at school don't let me go on it and I don't always have things to write about, unless you want to hear about boring school, boring work, and other such things.
Well, thank;you all for coming. And good luck finding the password!

Vincent Mark Loeppky

At this moment I sit on Krista's bed at home and watch Sheri, Aimee, and Vince scratch and tickle and other such things. They are all making much noise and having a joyous time.
Vince wanted me to write about him so I guess I will get that over with. One thing about Vince that we talked about today was his eating habits. Which include no peas, carrots, corn, broccoli, cauliflower, or other such things. I think it's crazy, in fact I made myself a package of peas for snack one time the other day. I can't see how anyone could not like that! Crazy! Another thing is how he is such a raging alcoholic. But I do not think this is true. I did, however, state my point of view on the subject.
But I think that is enough about Vincent Mark Loeppky. Now about me! I had a crappy day. Truth be told, I cried like three times. That my make me seem very emotionally unstable but really I am not. I am just having a PMS day. Do you know what that stands for? I do and it fits it perfectly. I had to work and I have to work tomorrow to. It sucks!!!! But that's okay I guess.
I am looking forward to tomorrow though. I want to eat good food!
Something I found out about Vincent today was that he has a phobia of snakes. Snakes eat birds. He is also kind of like a girl...he admitted it himself.
Emo's are gay. Emo girls are gayer.
I was going to say more but I forget. Now I cannot think of anything else to say so I will go.

youth...an exciting experience

Thanks for the help guys, I plan to write that paper today. I really have no idea what I'll write about...and I just went upstairs to see if you guys have that paper and neither of you do. It's sucks but maybe it is just as well. This way I actually have to do my own work. And to answer your question Kris...I did not get a raise...Co-op is very cheap.
Youth went pretty good last night. I am on the worship team because we actually sing at youth now. It is quite exciting...except for the fact that I am kin of the lead singer. It's not really official that I am but I have to mist experience singing out of the three people. Would you be able to guess who they are? There is a boy, and a girl, they are both younger than me. If you guessed Kelly and Colton...you are correct. We also have three guitarists, Dahlen, Sean and Nathan, and we have Kurt on drums. Since that is most of the youth, it wasn't very scary to be singing. Except when in the song In the Secret, you have to sing the chorus a Capella at one point....:S kind of scary I must say. Oh well, I think it went pretty good considering none have us have lead any type of singing before. It was a good experience. Andrew also did a very good job with his talk thing. He said he didn't really plan it that much but it looked like he put a lot of effort into it. We played bucket ball, which I usually like but then I didn't like it. Then we played pull apart, which I usually don't like but I liked it. We almost won, we just had Eric and Dahlen left. We would have won if we had another minute (or if Lindsey had been on time)I enjoyed it nevertheless.
I really cannot think of anything to say so I will go...have a grrreat day! lol
PS - Do my poll at the bottom!!!

Today I Craved Winter

It's true! I wanted winter today....for like 15 minutes! I was talking with Braden about snowboarding in the Rockies and I wanted winter so I could go snowboarding. I still want to but I don't want winter...I stepped outside and got goose bumps and I didn't like it.
Guess what everyone!?! I got a new and exciting job at work today. I was on the till and it was so much more fun than facing. I onlt forgot once to give change and Leola reminded me before I shut the cash drawer...and I only pressed the wrong buttons a few times and I only scanned one thing wrong...how exciting. I like it! It just takes me a bit longer than other people but I hope I will speed up a bit.
In other news...I got my year book. It kind of sucks though. No offence Kerri and Chelsey but there was no grad information...just their pictures and their names. It was disappointing.
Do you know what else is exciting?!?! I am all caught up in all my subjects...I finished 2 papers the other day and now I can start working on the definition paper. Do you remember doing that one? What did you define? I need help deciding what to do...or maybe just helping me find something might be nice.
Well, I think my post has come to a close...have a nice day everyone! :D

No school tomrrow!

I started to read over some of my older posts...I can't see how anyone finds that interesting. I only hope that I am getting more interesting instead of less. That would not be very good. Guess what!?! Mrs. Eyjolsson is actually giving zeros to people. I think I might have got one...I was supposed to email her a essay by 3:30 but I emailed it at like 3:45. Oops! I hope she still takes it. We had early dismissal today so I could have done by 3:30 or before but I was busy playing word rescue. I must say that I kick some monster butt in that game...I passed all the levels...go me go me! I think I wrote a few months ago about this boy with nice eyes...maybe that wasn't on here, but he definatly has nice eyes and isn't all that bad looking everywhere else either. But don't even think about bugging me about him because I wouldn't go out with him in a million years. He's not exactly my type and mom would have a fit if she even found out. Should I tell you about him? No, that's okay. Okay good!
On to the next subject...I don't have to go to school tomorrow! Yay. I don't have any classes in the morning and there is no school in the afternoon because the principle in the elemenatry school dies and the memorial is then. It's sad that he died but I am still glad I don't have to go to school. It's super exciting.
We are leaving to go to Cathy's shower now so I'll talk to you later!

It Finally Happened

Can you guess what I'm talking about when I say it finally happened? Well, if you can't then I won't tell you, but by the time you read this, I've already told you, mom has already told you, or you have experienced it first hand.
I am also quite excited that I don't have to go to school today until after lunch. I love not having classes and working on the same day. It's very nice to sleep in til 10 and then leisurely get up and get ready. I work until 8:30 today so if your coming home, see you then.
School, I thought I'd do a little segment on that subject. It is dreadfully boring and hopelessly sickening. And I've only had a week and a day of school so far. Part of the reason is that I have about no close friends at school. So, I find random people to hang out with. Mainly it's been Aaryn and Erynne. But I kind of like it.
Sheri, something I need to talk to you about is singing in church. Jolene asked me if we wanted to sing again in December. We are supposed to get back to her ASAP.
My face is being stupid today. I have a few new pimples and they are making it look funny..so I put some of that new Clearasil stuff on and it made my face all shiny and weird. So I waited a while for it to dry but I still looked very oily. So, I put some cover up on. Well, let me tell you, that do not go so well. For some reason it went on all uneven and there was nothing I could do to fix it. And the was a weird pimple that was red in the middle and white all around it and was impossible to pop. So, I decided to wash it all off and start again. I did that and I haven't gotten around to finishing my face so I must leaving you with the end open. You can ask yourself and ponder the ending...Perhaps she just didn't finish it at all...no that's more like Krista....maybe she put on lots and lots of makeup to cover ALL of those many many pimples...oh wait that's Sheri. Maybe she fussed and complained and whined about that...wrong again that's Aimee. Well, I guess the only option for Janette is to try again, and do you no what will happen? She will fix it to perfection and everyone will gawk at her flawless skin!
Now that I have made fun of everyone and you are probably all in tears I will leave you with this thought...but I couldn't think of any thought so I'll just keep on writing.
I think I might have told you that we got the old computer to work and we can play all those wonderful games we used to when we were younger. I must say that it is quite fun...and we even have Bangbang. That is one of the worst names you could give a game but that's okay, I still like it. I should go play them before I have to go to school. See you all later!!!

Last First Day of Highschool

Yes, it's true. And I know what you're thinking all those grown-up and older..."I remember that, that seems like such a long time ago." Please, spare me and try not to rub it in that your older than me. But I do feel quite old being in Grade 12. My first day of Grade 12 was not all that exciting I must say. I played volleyball for one class and listened to Mrs. Eyjlofsson speak for the first half of the day. Quite interesting I must say.
After this summer I actually know what it feels like to have close Christian friends. I do not get along with anybody at school the same way I used to. I used to think that they were kin of cool, all their rebellious ways. Now I see that they are so stupid for lack of a better word, to think that drinking and etc. is fun. I really do not like at all. It's all they talk about and I guess I've never really noticed before. It makes me miss all my LDC friends even more.
And I think I am now very ready to graduate and leave the town of Riverton for deeper things in life. In fact, I can't wait, I have a feeling that the days of this school year will just drag by...and you probably think..."No, Janette, Grade 12 flies by." If you were thinking that you should just hold on and let me finish. The days WILL drag by but at the end of the year I will not know where the time has gone.
Now that I am done explaining things in life to you....I will go and enjoy the wonderful tastes of chicken burgers.

Alberta...the country of crazy

My second full day of being in Alberta has almost ended. It has been a bit frustrating and I don't know how you made it six weeks here Kris. I mean I love Jess but she's kind of sickening sometimes, especially when she pulls down her pants to get her way. But Aimee and I have had fun watching movies together and swimming. That parts been good. Also, my bed is really comfortable. I like it, and I want to watch Winning London...that's right Charity owns that movie and I think I should take it home. I found out that tapping my fingernails on anything annoys Jess...I love that! All in all, it's frustrating and I want to go home but I'm not having a bad time...I just miss my mommy! But I can't think of anything more to say so so long!

Take me to Neverland hot Peter!

I am so tired!! After a long weekend with many things to do (I'll get into that more later) and my first day of work at the Co-op (I'll get into that more too) I am exhausted. I have never had such a busy summer! It is kind of nice but I wish I was still a kid and not have anything to do but sit around and play with dolls! Those days were the best. All I had to do during the summer was play and go to the beach and have fun....I don't want to grow up! Take me to Neverland Peter Pan! I think I would seriously go if Peter Pan was real. It would be so much fun to be carefree all the time....and have that hot Peter to look after he...*Sigh*
But to talk about real life...camping was lots of fun. I got a nice tan, went tubing, went sea dooing, ate yummy camping food, and more stuff like that. It was great and I really enjoyed the weekend.
Then on Monday I went to the city and bought some new clothes and stuff like that. It was good, but tiring and most people were grumpy. But we all survived and we all love each other just as much if not more. Good comes out of everything....well almost everything. This morning nothing good came out of it.
I got up nice and early for my first day of work...but I felt terrible. I had the worst cramps I had ever experienced. Sheri, I needed one of your pills! And if there are guys reading this and don't understand...that means you don't have to understand. Anyway the pain was so much that I almost threw up several times. I had a shower and stuff and started to feel a bit better and I went to work and got there at exactly 9 o'clock. Half the staff there called me Janet buy by the end of the day everyone was clear that my name was Janette...even Chris called me Janette! That is amazing.
I work everyday this week and I get off work at 5 on Thursday so we won't be to late for the Sound of Music play....that reminds me....we were going to watch that.
So, I'm going to go. I hope everyone has a good day!

The Loveliness of Grime

Right now, I am sitting with dirt beneath my nails, grease on my pants, sweat in my hair, and in desperate need of a shower. Why, you may ask, don't I just take a shower. The answer is simple...I am too lazy. I should probably explain to you why I am so dirty. Aimee and I swept out half of Dad's shop. And I might add that it hadn't been swept in a very long time, or least it seemed that way. Anyway, I got really dirty and sweaty because it is back breaking work. But I guess we all have to work hard once in a while eh?
I am really excited about camping this weekend. Mom made reservations(I think :S)at West Hawk Lake Campground. I can't wait for the pie irons, corn on the cob, and the smell of the wood burning. I'm so poetic today aren't I? I should write a poem or something. That reminds me of the poem from Matilda;
Mrs. D, Mrs.I, Mrs.FFI, Mrs.C, Mrs.U, Mrs.LTY
I must say that I have used this poem to help me spell this difficult word...no pun intended. I hate puns, they are so stupid and lame. But I actually don't feel so strongly about them. I usually don't even think about them at all.
Krista, Kayley told me what you guys saw. It was quite funny the way she told the story and everything.
Well, it seems I am all out of words for today. I hope everyone has a good day and remember to say Happy Birthday to Joel!

My Summer

Wow, it's been a long time since I've written on here eh? I had actually forgotten all about this blog thing. I used to check it almost everday during my spare to see if someone had commented, but when no one did I got bored of not reading anything new. But now since blogs have become less popular and facebook has become the new myspace I decided that I should be different and write on here again. I actaully enjoy this more because I can write about anything to everyone...facebook isn't like that. So, many things have transpired since my last entry. The main thing is that I don't want that chocolate milk anymore. I think I will start with a quick rundown on my summer thus far;
week 1--> LDC- It was a great time. I honestly didn't want to be there at first, I didn't even know why I had come. But I enjoyed it so much. The TDA's weren't that fun and most of them were boring or unenjoyable. But the web was extremely fun and amazing!
week 2--> Babysitting at camp...tiring, stressful, exhausting, frustraing. Those words only begin to describe the feelings that I expreiced that week. But I came out of it with more patience, more deafness, and a little more love for red-headed, screaming, wild children.
week 3--> Swimming Lessons....I am quite proud to say that I passed levels 6, 7 and 8. I came out being a strong 8 which means that I am now eligable to take my lifeguarding.....or my bronze medellion and then my nationals. It sounds so much better if I say it like that.
week 4--> I was counselling at camp for the first time ever. On monday, I would have done almost anything to be away from camp. I didn't want to be there at all. But after a nice chat with Dayna, I felt much better and ended up enjoying the week. I got to now Amanda Hunt better, and I really enjoyed couselling with her.
week 5--> This is the week that I have just finished. It's been a good week with a couple relaxing days. Monday was anything but relaxing though. I work for 10 hours and was hoping to not work again that week. Tuesday I had a day to lay around and be lazy, to mom's dismay of course. I think she would have liked it if I had helped her a bit more....sorry! Wednesday, I visited at camp and had a marvalous time. Thursday was rather chilly and I enjoyed the weather change. Friday...was a bad day in the morning. I had to work again and I was feeling rather faint and almost threw-up on the turkeys. But I got throught that day with a smile on my face and hoping for a relaxing evening where I could go to sleep by 9 o'clock. At 10 I was in bed...at 12 I was still in bed....and still wide awake. So I got up and helped dad in the shop working on the car. He is really tired and stressing I think. But there is nothing I can do because I do not know how to drill holes or attach fabric things to the door or lift heavy hoods and attach heavy hoods. But I am making him iced tea....I hope itwill help. Today, I went to town to shop for grocery's and then I went to the beach with Jeré. It was a good time....we had fun moving huge dead fish around and picking at the eyes...ew!
That is my summer and the rest of my summer is just as busy. I think I'm taking my lifeguard thingy from the 13-17 and then on the 22nd, I am flying with Aimee to Alberta. Which reminds me of the song by Paul Brandt....I'm Alberta bound til I die...which is not true in my case. Sorry Mr. Brandt. And a lot of those in between days I will be working to pay off my little cufuffle in the ditch. But now I'm going to go because to explain that would take another 2 pages!

i want my chocolate milk!!

Well, not to much has happened in the last couple days except for that ordination thing. I have been spending a lot of my days practising for festival but I haven't been practising enough. For you who didn't watch the midgets play this weekend...they placed third overall. They lost to Grunthal...I don't know how to spell. There is chocolate milk sitting beside me but Agnes is watching me so I can't drink it...it looks yummy and I'm real thirsty. 45 minutes til lunch. Then I get to eat pizza!! Woohoo...lol I think I have started to lack skill in writing. I can never come up with something clever to say. I guess I could start quoting random movies like Kayley. But I'm cooler than that! I have been writing this thing for 30 minutes already...it's taking forever for me to think of things. So, I'm going to go...maybe all add to this we'll see.

I know, I know, what's with me? I haven't written in a long while. Maybe because I never have much to say because I talk so much to everyone that I think every one's heard every story I have ten times over. Or maybe it's because my life has been rather dull and uneventful lately. There is some exciting, and something scary. I'll start with the scary one, I have to read my testimony at membership meeting on Monday. Yum, I want hash browns, there are people in here talking about going for breakfast. Anyhow, the exciting thing is that I am going to sign up for two courses and I'll get a maximum of 6 credits. That is if I pass all the exams and sing a lot. I smell something that reminds me of Ron and Sylvia's house. Anyhow, I get side tracked a lot. Me and Rachel and Sarah are singing next Sunday, make sure your home for that girls. It's the first special number I'll be doing without Sheri. I'll miss you! :*( I'll cry. Guess what I have to do, well, I don't have to I decided to. I am making my own course. This way I'll get a credit for singing. Which reminds me, I have voice lessons today. I have another 40 minutes to kill. What am I going to do? :S I'm all about these little face things today. In English class I wrote Janae a note thing and it has quite a few faces on it. I just finished reading a very cheesy western book. I think it was quite good actually. Predicable, cheesy, and cute...what else do you need? Well, once again I have a loss for words. So, I'll be going. Have a wonderful day everyone!!!:D

all the small things

Wussup everybody?!?! My day went pretty swell. Nothing remarkable about it. I broke my headphones...*sniff* I'm so sad. I am eating danagel...sound it out if you don't catch my drift. And for those who didn't grow up in a menno home you might call it fruit preserves. But to me that sounds pretty gay... so just say it my way! I have small groups at my home tonight...they will be here in about half an hour. Mommy made coffee cake...uuummm!!! And I made some iced tea so we won't starve or go thirsty I don't think. Do you know what is the most boringest game in the entire game...after solitaire of course...is badminton! I think it's incredibly boring!! Anyhow, I might be getting a credit for taking voice lessons. Don't you think that would be cool. I have to do it through the Royal Conservatory or maybe make up my own course. If I do the RC thing...I have to do all the theory and exams and such. :( Anyhow, I think I'm going to go. Have a beautiful day! :D :D :D :D

yearbooks!

It seems I am actually writing in my blog now, so you can start checking every third day and there might be something there. Guess what! I got last years yearbook today...finally! So, Kris remind me to give you yours! I only have one picture in there I think and I look very ridiculous. My hair was so short...and so long. I think I might be taking german or french instead of that ojibwa language course thing. And to actually get four credits I need to pass this really hard exam thing. But I think I'm going to go. Have a good day!

Another day in the life of Janette Brandt

Yes, that's right. It's happening again. I wake up, get ready for school, run out the door as the bus pulls up, listen to music as I go to school being tossed and turned by the stupid bumps on the highway. Anyhow, I get to school and do the usual thing, putting my backpack into my locker, going to the bathroom to fix my hair because I had my hood on on the bus and is now all staticy and sticking in every direction. Then the first bell rings, I continue to talk with Jere and maybe a few other people until the second buzzer goes. Then I saunter to class just in time to stand for Oh Canada. After that I do my work...usually...really I do. So, that's how my day has been so far. Except now I am all done law!!!! That's not true, I have one more project thingy do on Friday but I don't feel like being in class. Now I am in the library and I just agreed to take some Ojibwa course! If I go to all the classes which are every Tuesday from 1:30ish to 3:30 for six weeks I get four freakin' credits. I say to Agnes "Sure, I might do it" but on the inside I'm like "Four credits for one course!!! Cheese and rice!! I'm doing it!" lol maybe not those exact words but I'm sure it was very close to that.
I have voice lessons today...crap!!! I forgot to bring my guitar...and tell Adella I wanted to bring my guitar. Next time. I think I will mostly be singing Jesus Take the Wheel today and maybe a little of my festival pieces.
Well, I just lost my game of hearts and I don't no what to do next. So, I'm going to go. I hope you all have a wonderfully great day!!!

What a Day...and its only 11:00 am

OK! Guess what just happened!!! I am so mad. I was writing this post...all about how I'm having a crappy day and how thinking about three beautiful things makes you feel better. Now it's gone and I am about to scream...except then I'll get kicked out of the library. I'll try to remember everything that I wrote. The crappiness of my day is thus;
1. Mondays! They are incredibly horrible...I don't know why God created them. Burn them all!
>(
2. Waking up early in the morning...7:10 am to be exact. I didn't get out of bed til 7:40ish. But still.
3. Annoying, stupid people who think that they are better than everyone else. This is what people like that think...."Janette is not as cool as me, she doesn't have any feelings. Let's pick on her!" Well, they might think something like that, or maybe they don't think at all. That's probably the case.
4. When my blog that is twice as long as this one is so far. I hadn't even finished my my first thought! My thoughts might be two pages long sometimes but still!
Since I thought of 4 horrible mondayish things that are happening let me tell you 4 beautiful things that have or will happen today.
1. The song I'm listening to Famous Last Words by MCR. It's not my favorite but at least I have music. I love music!! I'm listening to a better song now...Iris by the Goo Goo Dolls...I think that's a funny name.
2. The hug Blaine gave me! Thanks! It made my day a lot better. And all those people who asked how I was doing. I must have looked pale. Or maybe just sad, tired, and grumpy. Which I am.
3. The chicken alfredo thing I'm going to have for lunch. Yummy!
4. The fact that the first semester is almost over! Yes! and no exams!! Double yes!! Good-bye physics and law!
I'm sure I could think of many more good and bad things. Like this song I'm listening to now! Before He Cheats. And the fact that it's that time of month, it just makes all these bad things worse.
I can't wait til the Jesus Take the Wheel song sounds good. I think I need to practise with the guitar more. Are you nervous Aimee? You will be later. But don't worry, you'll be good. But I think I'm going to go for now. I hope you all have a good day!!

A new year...

Well, well, a new year. How does 2007 feel to all your out there? To be honest it doesn't feel like a new year to me. All my problems (not that I have many) have followed me into 2007 and I didn't make a new years resolution. But why should I, I never thought about it after about three hours after making the resolution. Maybe I have short term memory loss or something. Or perhaps it is the fact that I never really wanted to do whatever my new years resolution was.
Hhhmmm...I am at a loss at what to say. That is rather weird. Sorry for not updating more, I never feel in the mood to be random. Crazy I now. Janette isn't being weird...that's weird.
So, I watched the Little Black Book today. I thought they were talking about the bible. lol Just kidding everyone...I am not as blond as Aimee. Just kidding, well not really. I have watched more movies this past couple weeks than I have in the past couple weeks before that. That didn't make much sense because I was gonna say something else but it came out a little differently but I just decided to keep it that way just so I could be weird. I have said that word several times today haven't I. I don't feel like counting but it feels like I've typed those same letters many time. which I probably have.
Tomorrow I have to babysit. I will probably post again than because I will be super bored. But I have movies to watch so I will be fine especially if you phone me and wish me a happy day. lol I'm going to go now so I hope you all have a good day or evening or night or whatever time it is when you read this. Tootles!
