* * LAURIE! * *
I'm Laurie. I have hair that makes Richard Simmon's hair looks good. I like giraffes and monkeys. I especially like monkeys. When I was born, my dad said I was either a boy or the ugliest girl alive. It's things like that that makes my self-esteem so high these days. I like a mixture of music from Tool to Weezer to Billie Holiday to Flock of Seagulls. I have an extreme love for the 80s that will never cease. I think I've seen The Breakfast Club about thirty eight times, even though I only like parts of it. Emilio Estevez is my boyfriend. I have a lawn gnome named Clyde. He's dear to my heart. Bruce Willis sings stalker songs to me at night. I watch TV a lot. I love movies to death. I hate the feeling, sound, word, thought of fleece. My nanny gave me a fleece sweater awhile ago. I like the smell of gasoline, freshly cut grass and chlorine. I like when my skin smells after I get out of the pool. I tend to bite my nails too much so my nails are gross and short and creepy. I can't stand having bumps in my hair. I have to have music. I cry during scenes like the ending of Revenge of the Nerds. Unpixelated Sims is funny, and kind of creepy. Laughing at drunk people makes for good times. Claire is my sex monkey. You just wish you were, too. I'm not on crack, although you'd think I was.

My hair is orange.

"Hi Honey Pie!I missed you! Where have you been?
I thought you would like to know I have a bunch of pictures
of the girls at my school getting naked!!
I set up my very own LOCKER ROOM CAM; You won't believe theshots I got!
>> Dildo pictures of experimental young things finding their
'hot-spots' for the 1st time!
>> Tons of titties from tiny to massive… I never knew nipples
could range from button sized to hubcaps!! WHAT A TREAT!
>> Close-up pussy shots of bent, spread cheerleaders getting
it on with each other… I will send them to you soon!
As always, I'll be thinking of you!
~~> XOXO Heather"

Apparently, this porno girl emailed me impersonally (one of those retarded porn scams via email) with a subject that said "Mike gave me your address." This had me fooled because I know a couple Mikes. So this is what I find inside :P Stupid sexy porn girl!

quiz created by glitterevil

Which Cure single are you?

Heather was being funny :D About the Olsen twin fiasco. And the Sister, Sister thingee too which made me practically CRY because I sing that song when I get bored.

Once again, my hair is orange. Not really. It's just got weird orangey tints. Sounds gross (brown and orange) but it's not bad looking. I like it.

"Not Another Teen Movie" is friggin' hilarious. I would buy it, but...um, my parents wouldn't exactly approve, hee. I'm such a good girl. But I AM buying the soundtrack. It's amazing. I love Good Charlotte :D

Back from Ashley's. It was a half-day today, m'eh. Media & Law class. Boring boring boring. Went on Ashley's bus, saw John's bongo man. Wait, that sounds wrong... Then Ashley and I did our work for like five hours straight, drinking and listening to Dirty Dancing soundtrack. Ordered pizza, watched movies & cheesy infomercials. Then before Spaceballs was over, she drove me home. Listened to the Goldfinger CD, of which I liked the one song. Well, it's the only song we listened to :P So I'm downloading:

No Use for a Name - "Straight from the Jacket"
Goldfinger - "Here in your Bedroom"

:D Yay music. I needed new songs. Anyway, yeah. Boring week. Beach Day is on Friday, but the school friggin' screwed us over! We always go to North Beach, but they're making us go to Pres'quile, which is quite dirty and all bacteria-y. So yeah, WE'RE NOT ALLOWED SWIMMING. What a friggin' rip-off! UGH!! fKFF So I'm either going all bitter, or having a pool party if it's warm enough. I HATE OUR WELFARE SCHOOL SOMETIMES. I am so pissed off, I feel like ripping someone's head off. I'll wait for my mom to come home so I can yell at her about it. Not AT her, but TO her :P

* * * * Sunday, June 2 * *

i had a weird dream last night. i was running for student council president (these stupid elections are making me have dreams about them now) against all my friends :P i had good material and stuff planned out, and i needed my jeans. i was in my navy cords, and i was planning on changing into my red-white striped rugby shirt. BUT I NEEDED MY JEANS. so i crawled away behind some seats, from the stage, asked mrs. burosch if i could, and then crawled more. it was like this giant maze of doors and secret passages and construction in the school, underground almost. i was so worried i was going to miss my cue to do my speech, so i started running. i ran into this playroom thing. it was upstairs, and had clown dolls in it, and all these toys and another set of creepy stairs going up. it was so spooky, and i found some janitors doing construction work in an adjacent room. i asked them, with some chinese girl who suddenly appeared, if i could use the door they were blocking. i found myself in a bigger mess.

finally, i got back to the stage sans those stupid jeans. i had missed my cue, but i asked to go last. i had this big leafy booklet of which i was supposedly going to read from. um, yeah? in it, were jokes about george clooney (WHAT?!) and a video clip of a younger reese witherspoon who had broccoli stuck in her teeth on a bus trip. i knew my jokes weren't winning with the crowd, so i sat down and apologized for the whole ordeal. & i woke up.

very, very confusing. i felt so sad that i knew i lost. and that whole underground maze was freaky, with clowns and empty rooms and stuff. i had crap like that. that's why i DID NOT LIKE "house on haunted hill" at all. anyway, ashley's coming over today :D we'll watch movies galore and eat poutine & chicken wings. you'd like we'd have some variety, since i NEVER finish my small poutine (it's friggin' huge as a small sized order :P) and yeah. we'll see...maybe i should order chicken wings today -- they're quite yummy.
