Will it take me another 5 years to update this? lol Sheesh.
I thought this site was
gone for good. I checked up on it to find my poetry, and the site was gone. Apparently my page of Sex Jokes was too much for
the good people at Tripod, so they removed the whole site. I'm so glad I was able to get it back!
Websites like this are
so.. 2001. lol now there's the world of Facebook. But I think I'll try to keep this site up and running for as long as possible,
for sentimental reasons if nothing else. What a blast from the past!
If you're reading this, whoa. lol I must have
directed you from Facebook, so you already know the goodness of my life at this point. I just changed my name to Shayna, last
week. I work 2 jobs for the first time in my life, and it's exhausting. lol Titan is 6 now, wears glasses, and you should
hear him read! He's amazing <3.
Thor Hinz deserves a special shout out of course, and I don't know if he'll ever even
read this page. But for we've been dating for two and a half years now, we're engaged, getting married August 2, 2014, and
it's been a whirlwind. So proud to call him my best friend. We're slowly but surely building our life together, and soon we
will be living on our own. I'm excited!
Maybe we'll have a baby of our own. Maybe we'll travel. The future is bright :)
Tuesday, April 7th, 2009Wow.. so its been 3 years already. So much has happened since my last post, so I guess
I should get right to it. December of 2006, we got pregnant with our big, strong and healthy son, Titan. He was born August
of 2007. Fastforward to October of 2008, Allen and I bought our first house. Hurray no more apartments and crappy landlords!
:) We have been able to celebrate 5 major holidays in our new home so far, so it has been really great. Halloween,
Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years, and now soon to be Easter! It's very hard to believe that I have been away from
this for so long, as it was such a vital part of my online life! But now my days are filled with Facebook, and being a stay
at home mom to 19 month old Titan, and loving every minute of it :) Even the hour and a half of sleep I got lastnight. lol Allen
and I are godparents now, to a gorgeous bundle of joy named Aiden, who is 6 months old and the cutest little chubby asian
baby that you ever did see! We look forward to spoiling him rotten, and watching him and his "brother" Titan grow up together
and play :) Life has changed so much for me, and I am proud to say that the grief counselling I received that I
spoke about in my last post, really helped me a lot. I have definitely grown wiser, and matured, and continue to have a good
head on my shoulders, and love and appreciate life in a way that most people cant, without losing a child and gaining some
perspective. Every moment is a gift, and every accomplishment your child makes should be celebrated. Even the little daily
things. It breaks my heart now to witness parents losing control and yelling at their kids or treating them unfairly.
We
dont plan on having any more children, as we have been blessed with the ones we've been given. And every day seems to be more
special than the last :)
Even better news, is I think I've figured out what I am really passionate
about, and will begin as a hobby, and hopefully flourish it into a career one day. An advice columnist. Soon I will be looking
into, and creating a new website or forums, through which I can help people with their everyday problems, with a clear view
and sound advice. Wish me luck! And hopefully it wont take me 3 years to update this again! lol Ciao. <3
Sunday, July 16th, 2006
Well, Allen and I just got home from our weeklong vacation spent out in Falcon Lake, MB. We took his 14 year old niece
Gaetana with us, and then my Dad and stepmom came out for the last few days. It was a good break from all the stress here
in the city.. Nice to enjoy the sun, nature, the beach, and the friendly strangers. Looking after a 14 year old girl is a
HUGE undertaking, and we're about ready to check ourselves into a psyche ward, but oh well. She gets picked up tomorrow morning,
and then we will be able to relax and get back to life! We took lots of pics, and I uploaded a few of me into the "New Pics
of Me" in the PhotoAlbum. So take a look!
Thats all for now... ttyl
P.S. I just read it over, and realized I haven't mentioned something crucial... Anasophia, mentioned in the post below
this one, has passed away :( She became an angel on her 4 month birthday, May 23rd. A whole website I made is dedicated to
her as previously mentioned, which is now a memorial page. We love and miss her SO much :( It's hard going on without her.
I will soon be getting 4 tattoo's in memory of her. Her feet on the top of my feet (her left on my left, her right on my right),
and the same with the top of my hands (her left handprint on top of my left hand, etc). The funeral home was nice enough to
give us several copies of her hand and footprints, so this way I can carry her on my feet whereever I go in life, and hold
her hands on mine. A nice symbolic tribute to her... Very special to me. First though, as my mom suggested, I'm going to get
them Henna tatooed on first, to make sure I like the concept and can live with it. Then once that wears off, it'll be off
to the tattoo parlour, which we're hoping to have done when we drive down to Florida next year! That will be a nice 2 week
vacation, starting with a roadtrip straight from Winnipeg to Fort Lauderdale, making sure to stop in Atlanta Georgia as we
pass through, and take a tour of the aquarium there.. which is one of the largest in the world! It will be amazing, and a
great way to travel and bond together, getting on with our lives after losing our precious Ana. Her crib is still set up along
with all her blankets.. kinda hard when I start thinking of taking it all down.. Makes me feel like I'm trying to forget her
or something... Luckily, I'm seeing a grief counsellor now through work, and thats refreshing to have someone to vent to for
an hour each week. Gives Allen's ear a nice rest :P Well, thats all for now. Shoot me an email or a message on MSN if you'd
like to talk! bye

I can't believe I haven't updated this since early January!
Well I have a beautiful daughter named Anasophia now :) She was born on the 23rd of January, and has her own site! Check
her out at https://shanabing.tripod.com/anasophia/ It's no surprise to anyone that I've been contact with lately, but she has dwarfism. But don't worry, because it is
the best thing that could have happened! She won't walk until she is 2 (which will make things a whole lot easier between
now and then), and she will stay small her whole life :) Allen and I are so proud of the family we have created,
and everything is going great! My stepmom Linda threw me a babyshower last month, and we got a ton of great stuff, and hopefully
sometime soon I will pick a date for my own babyshower, so all my friends can attend! I'm thinking it will be on the 23rd
of April.. since that will be Ana's 3 month birthday :) She is such a blessing in our lives, and motherhood is so much easier than everyone makes it sound!! She is a very happy
baby who sleeps a lot, and has the most expressive eyes you'll ever see! I love my Anasophia!! And I'm the proudest mommy
ever :)
Tuesday, January 10th, 2006
Well here I am again, less than 2 weeks away from motherhood! I wish I could say that its been nothing but fun times
this pregnancy, but truth is ive been very very sick, and spent all this past weekend in bed with excrutiating back pain.
:( Allen has been my angel though, helping however he could and taking care of me. I love you Allen soooo much :)
Other than that, I'm trying to recover as fast as possible, and trying to enjoy whats left of my already short maternity
leave before I have Anasophia. I'm not sure if I mentioned on here yet that I'm having a C-section delivery, but I am and
that alone will have me in bed afterwards for a good 4-6 weeks :S ...
Ahh I can't wait until all of this pain is over and Allen and I can sit back and thoroughly enjoy our little bundle :)
Be Strong, Ana. Mommy and Daddy Love You <3
Monday, December 26th, 2005
Merry Christmas!! I hope it treated everyone well :)
Good news!! As of January 5th, I start my maternity leave! and the baby is coming on January 23rd. Ack thats so soon!!
Allen and I are doing great, and we're very excited to be receiving our little bundle of joy :)
I don't know what else to write... :P so i guess I'll end it here.
Happy New Year!
Tuesday, November 22nd, 2005
Well! My birthday is only a few days away, and I'll be 21! Ahh that sounds so young :P But things are good, the baby
is good, and the snow has fallen!! And I'm completely in the holiday mood :) Allen and I finally got our apartment finished
and organized, and tomorrow we pick up our crib! So everything is coming together :)
I miss hanging out with people though, so someone call me and ask me to hangout dammit! :P Working midnights makes it
kinda hard to socialize, but I try and make my weekends accessible!
I'll be enrolling in school next month for an Interior Design degree, as well as taking my road test for my drivers licence!!
I'm a good driver :) I just gotta try parallel parking more.. I totally hate it <_<
Oh, and Allen and I have a baby bunny! :) I bought her 2 weeks ago, and she is a little over 2 months old, and so cute!!
Her name is Twix (like the chocolate bar), and she is very friendly, smart, and energetic :) We love her lots, and she provides
us with a lot of bonding time.. so its awesome!
Thats it for now.. Happy Holidays!!
Wednesday, September 21st, 2005
Well, I know it's been awhile since I last posted! But there are certain people who I didn't want knowing anything about
my life now.. But now I don't care, so I'll fill you all in :)
Allen and I have been living together for a few months now, and we're moving into an apartment next week, so thats really
exciting!! We also work together on the midnight shift, so everything is great with us :)
Also, here's a shocker to anyone I haven't talked to in months.. Allen and I are 5 months pregnant, and happy as hell
about it :) The pregnancy is going great, and everything is normal. Due date is February 3rd, 2006!
Any of you that were around when an exbestfriend of mine got pregnant last year, and knew my opinion about it (i was
against it), you may be thinking I'm a tad hypocritical.. but I choose to look at it like this: I do not have the immature
mentality of a 16 year old, where I think its ok to party and smoke during my pregnancy, nor do I have a psycho loser boyfriend..
my family and friends are supporting me 100%, as are Allens, and while we know it will be a struggle, we are totally up for
the challenge :)
As for MY health, things took a slight turn for the worst recently when I went to the emergency room sunday night,
after suffering all day from severe back pain. I thought it was the baby positioned wrong and pressing against my back, but
when I got there and was tested, they told me I have a kidney infection! :( Then they informed me I'd be staying overnight.
Allen was a sweetheart and came and saw me on monday morning, and stayed until i was discharged :) Now I'm at home relaxing,
with the week off work, and taking my prescribed medication to fight off the infection.. So thats been a little stressful!
Well, thats the update for now.. need to get ahold of me? send me a message on my blog! It's pretty much the only thing
I check these days.. ttyl :)
Wednesday, April 13th, 2005
Well i just finished reading my posts going back a few months, and I found it to be pretty funny how much my outlook on
life has changed in only a few months time. To start, I finally have some idea of what I want to accomplish in my life, and
that is to own my own business and be an Interior Decorator. Second, I have my beginners drivers licence now! although I still
havent gotten behind the wheel yet.. still too afraid I think. Next, I have little to no interest in fraternities or drinking
anymore. Hmm what else has changed.. I'm sick of making no money, but.. thats no different :P one of my most important goals
at the moment is to save up money, so Allen and I can afford a downpayment on a house. His big goal is to save up to buy me
a big fat engagement ring, but i'd much rather have a house first :P .. This Friday, I'll be making an appearance at the
Barca Club in Wpg, at some rave/party thats being held there, so that should be pretty cool I think.. Life is good, money
would be better, and I've rethought my life-motto .. it used to be 'Love your enemies, it drives them nuts" which is
TRUE, but now its back to being Hakuna Matata.. and not just because i watched The Lion King today :P but also because its
an ideal I hold very true to my life. Don't worry about things, don't get stressed out, just enjoy life, have fun no matter
what you do, don't be so damn intense all the time, and do what makes you happy. Simple!
I'll check in next month to update this again, until then, take care!
Sunday, February 27th, 2005
Well well well.. I have a job now! I work at a new hotel downtown as housekeeping! It's freakin hard physically.. but
its cool :) I've never worked this hard at a job before, and it feels kinda good, believe it or not :p
Today is my dad's birthday! Umm I think he's ... 47 now? I've lost count *blush* Other than that, Allen and I are better
than ever.. and by summer, we may just be living in our own apartment! Atleast I hope so..
Gotta start working out again and doing cardio though.. gotta get ready for the summer.
Until then, take care!
Friday, January 28th, 2005
Allen, I love you so very much. You are my bestfriend, soulmate, and perfect match.You let me know everyday how beautful
you think I am, and how much I mean to you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being the very best :)
This coming Tuesday, February 2nd, is our 1 year anniversary! It's crazy to think that a year has gone by already...
As for me, I'm getting back into the job-searching game, I've figured out that as my future career I want to be an Interior
Decorator, and I'm seeing some progress on getting my abs to show! Other than that, Allen and I are doing great, Cimi is healthy
again, and my friends are great!
Life is Good! :)
Friday, December 3rd, 2004
Well, it's now 10 months as of today that Allen and I are together :) And despite our clashing views and strong opinions
sometimes, we love eachother more than ever :) I love you Allen sooo much! My handsome prince! :)
OKOK enough mushyness lol.. What can I say.. I'm 20 now!! although it sounds soo young :S and Christmas is almost here, but
I haven't started shopping yet.. or even thinking about shopping. Mostly because I have no money :P Oh! and surprise, surprise,
I quit my job at Burger King.. crap job..Cara and I never did end up working together.. $7 an hour.. 45 mins on the bus
just to get to work! No more of that for me, I applied for a fulltime job, and I'm just waiting to hear from it:) Yay money!
Oh and in August I'm going back to school to finish my Health Unit Clerk degree! Soo everything is cool right now. Oh and
court? Well we went but it didnt go to trial because of the pettyness of the amount of money being asked for. So the judge
demanded that they settle for a smaller amount, I agreed so that they wouldnt ruin their credit by losing :P, and I ended
up paying them a whopping $34. Haha! Isn't it funny when 20 year olds think they are responsible and mature enough to
do adult things?? I never pretend to be mature :P but I also pride myself on being educated... Mwhaha but oh well.. Cest la
vie! ttyl :)
Wednesday, October 13th, 2004
Well Allen came to Thanksgiving Dinner with my dads family on monday, it went good and everyone thinks he's
great! :) Umm Linda and Ryan actually served me with papers.. I can't remember if I wrote about that already.. but anyways
I filed a Counterclaim, and the court date is set 2 days before my birthday :@ But ahh it'll feel nice to win! :) Allen's
bday is coming up on the 30th, so to be festive for Halloween, Cara and her bf Shawn (new pics in the photoalbum!) and Allen
and I, will be going for a romantic hayride and stuff :) Hmm what else... Working at BurgerKing is cool... Cara and I
will be working days together starting next week!
Other than that, not much is new... Still broke..lol Damn you people! Sign my guestbook! blah :P lol ttyl
Tuesday, Sept 28th, 2004
What an emotional start to the week... It started with Ryan calling me on sunday, and telling me that they think I owe
them money for bills for the 2 weeks i lived with them, and that they want to take me to Small Claims Court. then Allen trying
to break up with me Sunday night, then monday after work, a rough native guy who was high on solvent, tried hitting on me
to the point where it was close to being sexual assault! But thankfully, Allen realized how much I mean to him, and now we're
better! SO MUCH better... We're more in love than we were before, because losing someone and then realizing how great you
had it, is a painful painful experience. And neither of us want to relive that day from hell, so we're together now and forever
:) Ahh I love him so much, and he knows it. I love you Allen!!! ...lol ok well I'm gonna get back to my msn convo's. By the
way! I do work at Burger King now, and tonight was my 5th shift! It's pretty good... my back is killing me from all the cleaning
though :S .. but yeah, you all take care!
Thursday, Sept 17th, 2004
All is well in my world :) Yesterday my friend Cara (her grad pic is in my PhotoAlbum) helped me move my stuff from Linda's,
into my moms. my dad helped too, and now all there is left there is furniture, and me Sean and my dad are going to go get
that stuff on Saturday. Tonight I hung out with Justin and Niko for a bit, who both totally crack me up :), and last night
Allen came and spent the night :D <3 . So it's all been good! I went and applied at BK in Portage Place today, so i hope
i get that.. and other than that, everythings rollin! Once money starts to flow, I'll be in even better spirits! Imagine that!
Anyways my friend Rob L sent me the pic he took of me 2 days ago, so its in my PhotoAlbum now. Be warned, its crappy! lol
anyways.. i'll keep you all updated on my happiness and sanity! Take care! And thank you to Allen, Cara, Shawn, my Dad, My
mom, Justin, Niko, Rob M, Rob L, and Sean, for all being so great and supportive!. ttyl
Monday, September 13th, 2004
First I need to clear something up.. lol a few people have read my sunday post, and congradulated ME on being pregnant!
lol .. thanks, but Linda is the pregnant one. I am happily healthy, NOT pregnant, and yeah... second. things have gotten worse
here, and I'm ready to leave. Linda blew up at me 2 days ago, and told me to move out. So thats what im planning to do, asap.
I'va already talked to my brother today about it, and later I'll talk to my mom, and hopefully she'll let me move back into
her place. As stressful as it was to live there, it will be heaven compared to the stress im under here. Anyways, I'm gonna
go shower now.. I just want to say Thank You to Allen for being so great, loving, and supportive through all this. I love
you honey bun :)
I'm out! ttyl guys
Sunday, September 5th, 2004
Well it's been a week and a half living with Ryan and Linda, and Ryan's great.. lol. Anyone who has been in my presence
this past week will surely recognize a person who is miserable. That would be me. Pregnant women are Horrible creatures, and
I wouldn't wish my worst enemy to be subjected to their sarcastic bitchy moody fits of depression. I flipped out
finally on Linda, and Ryan was sitting right there, but I hope he didnt take any offense to it. He's a great roomate.. and
I have no bad thoughts towards him whatsoever. Linda on the other hand is driving me fricken insane. I NEED a job. 2 jobs..
both parttime.. that way if im not at work, i can be out with friends or at Allens house. Anywhere but at home watching Linda
be lazy. Now you may be finding this rant a little insulting, since Linda and I have been practical bestfriends on and off
for almost 5 years. I've always known that I don't get along with females, and now I know that I can't stand pregnant ones
even more. Are all pregnant females like this?? If they are, then I can't blame guys for being "irresponsible" and leaving.
If I had to face a monster every morning, I'd stop coming back too.
What a mood im in today, eh? Actually I'm in a wonderful mood today :) I went for breakfast this morning (early morning)
with my mom, and we had great bonding time, talking and eating, and me hearing stories about what a wonderful baby I was,
and how I'm great :) It was a nice change from people telling me that I need an attitude adjustment. I think my attitude is
perfectly fine! Sure, I'm a tad on the negative side sometimes.... lol ... but as my mother said, Strong willed children are
something to be proud of. It means they wont be easily swayed by others, they will stand up for whatever they believe, and
they WILL NOT be pushed around. Yay Im a blissful person!!! :) lol ok so maybe im no angel....
On another topic, I figure I would start at the beginning of how Allen and I met, since I didn't mention anything about
him in any of my earlier posts over the past year and a half. He is the love of my life afterall, so I feel I owe him a lot
of acknowledgement.
It was a beautiful sunny day, the birds were chirping, the white cottonball clouds were strewn across the bright blue
sky. Golden sunshine painted my bedroom floor, illuminating the.... lol just kidding. Here's how it started: Linda knew
Allen before I did.. back in the days when we were "ravers" at Galaxy Skateland. He worked there for a short while.. and somehow
she got to know him. They talked quite a bit (so she said) .. and then they hung out once or twice. Anyways she developed
a huge crush on him they kissed, and then she heard a rumor that he had a girlfriend already! So she got me to add him
to my msn so I could talk to him, find out if he was a cheater, and to bitch him out if he did turn out to have a girlfriend.
Well, turned out he was single, and the girl spreading the rumor was Marley his ex thing. Once I started talking to him I
could tell why Linda crushed on him. We talked over MSN for awhile, before continuing the conversation over the phone. For
months we talked about anything and everything, while I went through my boyfriends, moodswings, and we grew close. This was
all around... Jan-May 2003. Then I met Val, and I started going out with him. Lost touch with Allen for those few weeks,
and when Val left for Europe, slowly I got back in touch with Allen, and we met finally in August. It was a great friendship
we'd made, and when we met face to face, Allen fell in love with me :) .. We met at the Nicaraguan Folklorama Pavillion
where Allen was working that week, and it was just an unforgettable night. We talked a little, mostly sat staring into eachothers
eyes, and we slowdanced to what became our song. We were so into eachother that Allen's boss let him leave early.
I went with him back to his moms that night, and we spent 3 days together. A few weeks after that, his bestfriend at the time
Chad, lied to him, telling him that I had cheated on Allen with him! and well, needless to say that made Allen hate me,
so he stopped talking to me and that was it until.. december. For some reason Allen messaged me on MSN, and even though
I had deleted him from my list a long time before, I felt like I really wanted to give him a chance to talk to me again. So
I did, and we talked, and we decided to meet at Galaxy one night to see eachother again. That night was hell to start with.
No cabs were available, no buses were running from my end of town, and I almost had a breakdown before I finally gave in and
asked my mom to drive me there. I was 3 hours late, didnt even know if he'd still be there, but figured I had to go anyways.
I just had to. I walked in and looked around, and there he was out on the floor, rollerblading, busy talking to his friend
Curtis. They didnt see me, so I went over and got some rollerskates, my eyes still locked on them as they rolled farther away.
I went to concession, put on my skates, and headed out to the skating floor. Seeing them just a few feet ahead of me, I skated
up behind them and put my hands on each of their shoulders. "Hello boys," I cooed, and they both turned and looked. Allens
eyes and mine locked, and that was it. The room swirled around us for the next few hours, our hands clasped together, and
I didnt notice much of anything else. It was like a movie.. I felt funny, almost dreamy.. All I could see was him. I couldnt
take my eyes off him... and I didnt want to. His hand felt so good in mine, the floor felt so smooth under us, and the music
was just beating around us. I dont even remember hearing the words to the songs. I was lost in my own little snow globe. Reflections
from the disco ball floated around us, taking the place of snow, and there I was, my little heart frosted up like a snowman.
Until he kissed me a little later. Then my heart melted. At the end of the night after the lights were turned on, it
was time for all of the goodbye hugs, goodbye kisses, and exchanging of phone numbers.. the Galaxy usual. I followed Allen
around like a puppy dog.. not wanting to let him go.. afraid of not seeing him again. He gave me his phone number again, I
think I gave him mine, and I watched him leave with Chad and a friend. I couldnt wait to get home and call him. I cant even
remember how I got home that night.. I think Linda drove me.. maybe I took the bus.. I just remember how good it felt to get
home , call his number, and hear his voice. We hung out again a few weeks later, or maybe it was a few days.. I just remember
him coming over to my apartment and how shy we both were. Lovestruck, I like to call it. I asked him to be my boyfriend, then
he asked me to be his girlfriend, and ever since then, on the night of the 2nd at 2 am, or the early morning of the 3rd, we've
gotten better and better. 7 months we've reached now, and we have many more months to go. I love him so much. He makes me
feel like...like im incredible. He makes me want to be a better me. I would do anything to make him smile and be proud of
me..God how I love his smile. :)
Well, this is getting to be quite the long post.. so I think I'll end it now by saying this.. I love you Allen. Together
Forever my love-love. You're the best :)
Now as for everyone else.. if you're gagging by now and rolling your eyes, go to hell and be happy for me :P lol
ttyl
Tuesday Ctnd
I love you Allen :)

like our alone time!! :( But having Linda and Ryan as roomates should be fun.. its seems im good at pissing them off :) lol.
My dad finally met Allen today, because he happened to drop by my moms when Allen Linda and I were there packing some

Geez there's so much to say, and yet I can't think of anything.. well Val is still in Europe, and has fallen in love

Love you all,
Shana
Tuesday, July 8th, 2003
Well I'm on campus again.. came straight here from the airport after Val's plane left at 2pm :( He's gone now for probly
about 6 months, maybe more, maybe less.. and I miss him already. He's such a sweety! OK OK enough mushyness... its now 3:15,
and I'm gonna go to the library right now to study for my test, I just thought I'd update this first. Yep I have a test at
6 on the Cardiovascular System, and I've barely studied :S.. so now I must go do that. Saw Charlie's Angels 2 with Kendra,
it was super good, made me feel like kicking ass afterwards! Umm I think I've been pissing off my Dad and Linda majorly these
past 2 weeks by spending so many nights at Val's.. but oh well, things can be back to normal now. I will be rehearsing everyday
for the play, and stupidly I told my dad the name of it. I told him he can't come see it though, so I hope he listens to me!
If I see any of my relatives in the audience with camera's, I'm just going to die on the spot. That should make for an interesting
twist in the play, eh? lol.. anyways time to study.. gotta get a good mark! Wish me luck! ttyl
Love Always, Shana <3

Well we've begun rehearsing for Thane's play! If anyone's wondering what its called, TOO DAMN BAD! I dont want anyone
I know to come see it. Which is why my parents dont even know about it.
Anyways booooo hoooo Val is leaving on Tuesday :( I will miss him lots.
I'm on campus right now, and I should be heading back to class.. just wrote a test on Skin, and i think I got 35 or 36
out of 39!! go meeeeee! :D
Yay another rehearsal tomorrow! My characters name is Heidi.. she's a lesbian film creator who loves her cats.. hmmm
suits me, eh? NOT :P But i love it.. and tomorrow night im gonna take my cousin Kendra to a movie for her birthday! coolness!
Shit look at the time i gotta run... ttyl!!
Thursday, June 26th, 2003
Well I'm on campus right now, waiting for my class to get started in 15 mins.. Just so you all know, I quit Ipsos Reid
this week. I'm looking for a new job, applied at Roger's Video yesterday. I hope I get hired :)
Val and I are dating now (a week today) and everything is sweet. We've been spending lots of time together before he
leaves on the 8th, and we're having a blast together :)
School was kinda tough at first, got 37/52 on my first test.. but that's a pretty decent mark considering I only answered
39 questions! lol
Hmm what else.. things are going ok on the home front.. Dad and I are back to our normal good relationship :) Linda is
still annoying as hell, but meh.. what can you do, right? Women are too god-damn territorial.
And yes Michael.. Thank you for pointing out that I spelled Genius wrong in my last entry. So now I'm acknowledging my
mistake. Which makes you offically an asshole for pointing it out.. I do believe if you scroll down to my VERY FIRST journal
entry, it says that I'm allowed to make all the spelling and grammar mistakes I want, because this is MY journal. but hey.
I'm not bitter.
0:)
Thurs. ctnd
Oh! And I almost forgot! I start my next College course on Tuesday :) Anatomy and Medical Terminology! woo hooooo ..
and I got my transcript for my Intro to Microcomputers class in the mail, and I got an A+ :D my GPA is now 4.5! that makes
me sound like a genious!
Thursday, June 12th, 2003
Well what to say.. Wow it's been a long time since I've updated this thing! Were you thinking that I dropped off the
face of the earth? :P Probly not since I'm always on MSN.. but here's whats been goin on.. I'm single (as I have been for
awhile now) and having a great time meeting new friends, and going on casual dates. :) And I'm considering moving out.. but
I'm not sure if I'm completely ready... little bird's first step out of the nest, and I'm afraid of falling :P ... and that
sounds horrible since my last name is Robbins...... lol geez I walked right into that one.
But anyways! I really want to find a dayjob that pays more than $8.75 (or equal to is fine i guess) .. because working
evenings at Ipsos is killing my reliability at work, and my social life. I keep calling in sick whenever I want to go out
instead of work, and I've done that WAY too much. Everyone keeps telling me I'm gonna get fired.. and I dont disagree. I'm
prepared for it :P I just know my dad will freak.
Hmm what else.. Goalies are sweet ;) and so are Martini's (which i recently tried at Red Lobster.. mmmm), and hey I saw
Trent today, my buddddddy, and yeah things have been pretty good! I just really wanna find myself a good daytime job. working
evenings sucks!
OK I'm out.. ttyl
Love Always, Shana
Friday, May 9th, 2003
I went to bed at 3am this morning, and was awoken by a loud thumping on my door "It's 11:30! get out of bed!", my dad
yelled. Then he opened the door and I told him to shut up and go away, i didnt need to get up because I didnt work today,
its Friday. I threw the blanket over my head, and he muttered "I have something important to tell you." so i said "what" and
looked at him. "Jeff Spencer died last night in his sleep.sometime between midnight and 8 this morning. Funeral will probly
be on Monday, I've gotten several phone calls today telling me, and I just thanked them. I've spoken to your mother too, so
she knows and we'll all be going to the funeral." I looked at the ceiling, and he closed my door and went downstairs. Tears
flooded my eyes and i buried my face in my pillow. Jeff Spencer.. 23 year old happy, big kid. Died during his sleep. I've
heard that he had a seizure, and the seizure made him vomit, and he choked on it. Gory details i know, but its serious.
My best friend since I can barely remember.. was Melanie Spencer. Jeff's 2nd youngest sister. I practically lived at their
house growing up; went on family trips with them, slept over countless nights, and could always be found somewhere around
their house. Jeff was the coolest guy. A big kid. Always having water fights when it was really hot, making a HUGE snow fortress
in his backyard when it was really cold, and gathering all the kids on the street together for one massive game of Hide and
Seek all year round. He started me on my hockey card collection, told me in great detail of each Star Wars and Star Trek ship
models he had on various shelves around his room, and was constantly either laughing or being mad. They had several holes
in the walls of their house, mostly all I heard were caused by Jeff having a fit. They never fixed them, and I wonder if they
will now... The basement was half his room, and also the family tv/office room. God I feel horrible for all of them. (Justin
remember when we are at BP, and I saw my old bestfriend but was too shy to go talk to her? That was Melanie. :( ) Now i heavily
regret not going to say hi. I'm going to give her the biggest hug at the funeral -we think its monday or tuesday, not sure
yet-. I'm going to give them all big hugs. Usually at funerals I try and be tough. No crying for me, it just makes everyone
sadder. But not for this one. I'm gonna try and push that "toughness" ego aside, and concentrate on how bad i feel for them.
I havent really seen/ talked to them in about 5 years. So now I feel stupid for waiting that long to talk to any of them.
I've been way too selfish, and my message is this:
Don't waste time. Life is too short to hold grudges, or be selfish, like having the attitude
"Melanie wants me to call her? why doesnt SHE call me?" Everything is so stupid. Every reason for a fight is so stupid. Treasure
your friends and family that you have. Even the ones that you havent seen in a long time. You'll miss them when they're gone.
Rest In Peace Jeff Spencer. 1979-2003.
Friday, April 25th, 2003
Hmm.. not really sure what to put in this new entry.. A lot of crap has been happening lately. This past Wednesday, Dave
broke up with me :( it had been a week since I saw him last, and was wondering slightly what was going on, when he sprung
it on me. I was devastated as hell, cried for 6 hours straight, and decided against going to work. Missed the pizza party
for my team, which i had been looking forward to all week, but I certainly was happy that i missed the 28 degree temperatures
inside the office.. mwhaha! and yeah.. Chris asked me out on wednesday too, and stupidly i pretended I was ready. But i wasnt,
and I want dave back soooo much. We had a talk last night and decided to try and fix things between us, and I hope that works
out.. :)
Wow this is probably the most personal entry i've ever made :P Well its been an emotional couple of days. Oh and I think
my tonsils are infected :P yayyy! *rolls eyes* Anyways Linda is over now, I'm probly going to Doubles tonight with her
(a crappy lil bar at the Niakwa hotel), because one of her friends from work is having his birthday there. but yeha... ttyl!
Sheesh guys confuse me..
Saturday, April 12h, 2003
Well the last week and a half have been an absolute BLAST. Last Friday I went shopping and bought my new $140 bikini
(yikes, i know).. and spent a bunch more money on a backpack, hoodie, headphones, and 3 shirts. Then on Saturday I skipped
work, and went to the DU frat party that night :D Which was completely awesome!! I was hammered, and spent the last half
of the night lounging in the hottub in my bikini, with Linda, a bunch of hotties, and wearing a Sombraro(which i was told
i looked REALLY cute in *blush*) .. So then Linda and i went back to Sean Clarks and crashed on his couches, and finally came
back to my house on Sunday. Well I had called into work saturday and added myself a shift from 3-10 for sunday.. But i was
WAY too hungover to go, so i told my dad i was goin to work, and went and hungout at Linda's house. We ate Mac n Cheese, and
then I made plans with Dave :) He wanted us to meet up, go to a movie, hangout, stuff like that. So i agreed, and he picked
me up from Linda's house. We went and saw Phonebooth, and had a great time hanging out and getting to know each other.. and
by the end of the night, he asked me out!! Awww what a sweety.. So i waited awhile before saying yes, because I wasnt sure
what to do, but eventually I gave in. After all that singleness I really was getting lonely, and Dave is such a great guy
:D.. Well then Monday Dave came over before I worked and we hungout and then he drove me to work, Tuesday I had school
and Dave and I went Bowling afterwards :), then Wednesday and Thursday I worked, and Last night I went and had dinner at his
house, with him and his parents. They are such cool people, I love them so much!! His mom is soooo nice, and she even made
me spaghetti :D!!! She welcomed me back, Dave and I had an amazing evening, and then he drove me home. Then today i got up
at 8:15 (eek!), showered, and went to the mall for breakfast with my dad and linda and their friends, just like every Saturday
morning. And I stopped by Liberty Taxes (I think thats the name) and made myself an appointment for Tuesday at 2pm, to go
and do my income tax! Yay adulthood! :D Oh and then I went to work. Tomorrow is my day off, so i think I'm just gonna sit
around, probly go jogging/walking for the first time all winter :) , clean my room, maybe rearrange my furniture, stuff like
that.
Thursday, April 3rd, 2003
I got a 50 cent raise at work!!!!! yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay :D I'm such a great interviewer i guess *blush* Hooray

News on the boy front: Still staying single and not seeing anyone.. No sexual stuff for me AT ALL (including kissing)
until im in an actual relationship.. and so far its quite annoying. I really wanna be kissed :( ... but gah! damn self

Nathan, my Indiana hottie, Luv you sweety and dont worry, I'll teach you how to rollerblade.. lol :D

talking about it so what else is new... I'm finally getting over my cold, and I think I gave it to my asshole step brother,
Mike! LOL mwhaha the best revenge! I went to class tonight, super boring, but i downloaded MSN onto my computer there, and
spent the whole night on MSN talking :) Hehehe.. Sneaky Sneaky! I've basically been feeling like crap all day, but then Nathan

Wednesday, March 19th, 2003
I have a new email address! shanabing@lycos.com .. so feel free to reach me there if my hotmail account is full, or if you just feel like talkin :) Hmm so much has happened...
Where to begin.. Well Linda and I both work at Ipsos Reid now.. it's almost been 2 weeks! I love my job there.. its super
easy. And in the last few weeks my social life has just been booming! A couple Wednesday's ago I went with my friend Rob and
his cousin Lyle, to the Henderson Draft House, where i won 3rd place in a wet tshirt contest! lol .. then on the friday after
that I met Carter, and we went and hung out at Dirty Laundry, then Blue Agave, and then Lot 115, all very cool places!! And
then Saturday we went to 2 house parties in one night.. and I got to meet a lot of new, and super cool people :) And then Saturday night after work I went to a wedding social for my step mom's, friends daughter.. We got there
at 9, and it didnt get good until like 11, and then my parents made me leave with them at 12!!! that pissed me off SO much..
but i still enjoyed the time that i did spend there..
This is a busy week.. yesterday I worked 4-11pm, then tonight I had my first College class from 6:15 till 9:15, and tomorrow
and thursday i work 4-11pm, then friday im going to get my tattoo! and Saturday i work 11-6, and then Justin and I are going
up to one of his friends cabin in Gimli, where they're having a party! so woo hoo busy!
Just 2 weeks ago I had no life at all.. and look at me now!
Ooh and last but not least, the Matthew update.. Well he's not here yet, but weve set aside Monday as the day he'll finally
be coming! So that will definitely be cool and I can't wait :)
Well this is a lot of typing ive done, which means a lot of reading.. sorry about that.. im ending it here.
Luv Shana
Friday, February 21st, 2003
So yeah Linda and I went job hunting today, and handed in resume's at 3 places.. one of them being Ipsos Reid, where
we were both given an interview timeslot. Mine is on monday at 11:30 :) so yaaaay money! And ooh Matthew id hopefully coming
SOON <3 I can't wait for that!!! And I'd just like to say thank you to all of my friends who have supported me and Matthew's
relationship. I love you all :)
Tuesday, February 10th, 2003
The last few days have been real crappy for me. Paul and I broke up :( in hopes of creating a better friendship to fall
back on. I went and got a depro shot (and my arm STILL hurts), and I've been crying on and off. Good news is that I had a
girls night out yesterday with Linda C and Jackie (there's a pic of them with Matt in the Grad Pics section), and we shopped,
went and saw How To Lose A Guy in 10 Days, which is a GREAT movie!! :D then we stopped by the Limelight Lounge to visit Jackie's
sister while she was working but it was totally bunk so we left and went to Club Regent!! OMG. I love that Casino soooooo
much... I looks like Hawaii :D! and the walk through aquarium is absolutely wonderful. I lost 50 cents, made about $4 but
played all my winnings, and talked to an animated skeleton named bones for 10 minutes, and an animated toucan named tookie
for 45!! LOL. I had the most fun ever and I want to go back again and again!! Ooh and Matthew is coming up here in a week
and a bit from Florida, and he says he is gonna treat me like a queen :) and I believe him. He is such a sweety omg :)
I miss paul.. (obviously) but tonight I phoned him and we had a fun little chat (hopefully the start of a good friendship
:)! ) Soo yeah.. I'm on cloud 9 :)
Thrusday, January 30th, ctnd.
OH one more thing b4 i forget.. If you havent seen my new hair cut yet, I took some pics with my webcam today, and posted
them in the Webcam Pics! part of my site .. so check it out :)
Thursday, January 30th, 2002
Tuesday was a big day for me! Saw Paul (yum), went to the bank and cashed my check, went to the mall, and got my hair
cut, highlighted, and layered. Cost me $96, but MAN was it worth it! The hairdresser was super cool, his name is Richard,
and he kept calling me beautiful and gorgeous .. then he mentioned how he takes pics of each client that he does an excellent
dye/styling job on, and posts the pictures on a hairstyling website that he runs.. So I let him take a few pics of my hair,
and he said he would email them to me sometime soon.. AND he mentioned that since i was so "photogenic" he could get me in
time with a profession photographer, for more hair pics.. Now wouldnt it be cool if this could lead to modelling? So anyways,
that had me in bliss :)
THEN i went shopping, and met Dan Audette (one of my old highschool friends) at the mall, and we applied at different
stores in the mall. After that it was still early, so we did a bit of shopping, and then went and saw the movie Two Weeks
Notice. It was pretty good i guess.. not something i would recommend if you want lots of laughs.
Now for Wednesday (and i'll try and keep this short..) I went to Melisa's house and babysat Dynika and Rheyanne from
8 until 4:30 ... Rheyanne is only 1 and a half, so she's a total cutie, but Dynika, who's 5, is a nightmare.. lol
Well thats the excitement for my week so far! ttyl
Sunday, January 26th, 2003
Hey look at that! I've been 18 for 2 months! :) and Paul and i have been together for a month and 10 days :) .. hmm now
lets see.. its been awhile, so i probly have lots to add.. Ahh yes lets start off with the fact that I lost my job at Galaxy!
Friday night i told my manager Mel that i wanted to make monday my last shift, since Andre has been an ass (threatened to
fire me), and I'm going to college soon.. she said ok, but seemed very disappointed and asked if i could still work the weekend
since they will be very busy and need me. I said of course, and then yesterday, she phones me to tell me not to bother coming
in at all this weekend, because she has filled my shifts! :/ That totally sucked. I mean I did love my job, I just needed
to grow up and get a REAL job, not a 7 hour a week at a roller rink "job".
But anyways, yes i'm going to College starting March 18th :) Taking a couple courses
through Red River, so that i can become a Health Unit Clerk (or in other words a desk clerk at a hospital/doctors office)
.. so I'm REALLY looking forward to that :D
Hmm Paul and I are doing great :) He met Linda last week, but that was by complete accident.. lol so it
was kinda awkward, and now my dad is dying to meet him... which he wont for awhile :P .. and hmm Wednesday I went to Pharoah's
with Jeff, and that totally sucked.. and the "Show your Underwear" contest was rigged!!! :@
What else.. oh yes! Michael (my ex that im sure you all have read about :P) decided to phone me and drop
by about 2 weeks ago... and i thought "Wow! he has a gf, he knows i have a bf, and he finally wants to be friends.. good for
him!" and then he was flirting, and I found out, much to my disliking, that HE was single, thought i was single, and only
came over to try and get me back! x,x that pisses me off royally..
Oh and one more thing... I think my next job will be waitressing/hostessing :) keep your fingers crossed
for me!
So I guess thats about all I have to update... :\ umm yeah... ttys!
Thursday, January 2nd, 2003
Wow a new year and its been a LONG time since ive added anything to this.. i hope you guys havent completely given up
on me! My computer has been down since.. well i guess since december 11th when i last updated. It's a major pain in the @$$!
always freezing and what not. Anyways, Christmas time is done, New Years has passed, and life is good. :) Paul and I have
officially been dating since the 16th, and he has just brightened up my life completely <3 Hmm what else has been
happening.. I work tonight, and since its january, im only going to be working fridays and saturdays mostly for the rest of
the month.. so im thinking about getting another job. hopefully one just as easy :P (No, i Won't work at KFC :P sorry!) I
miss all my MSN friends so much, all i seem to be able to do these days is email, so im going to try and send everyone
an email within the next week so we can keep in touch. I'm going to go get ready for work now since my bus comes in 20 minutes.
If you're reading this, thanks for sticking around :) Love ya'll
Wednesday, December 11th, 2002
Holy its been awhile.. i need to update, wouldnt you say? Well, im not so mad anymore about the birthday thing.. sorry
for the rant.. :/ Time has passed and all is well :) I'm extremely happy with my life now.. thanks to one special sweetheart
named Paul (love you hottie!) and.. I thought I was gonna get fired from Galaxy, as I'm sure you all know why, and now, thanks
to my great concession skills, im not gonna get fired after all ;) yay!!
Umm.. i work tomorrow i think, my calendar says 1-4:15, which makes no total sense at all, so im gonna show up there
at 12:30 i guess... and yeah.. sorry to anyone that i disappointed by becoming happy, and I hope that i dont lose any of you
as friends.
Love you all,
Shana :)
Wednesday, November 27th, 2002
Do you consider yourself to be my friend? KISS MY ASS.
Now that I've gotten that out of my system, let me just add that I am extremely disappointed in all but 3 people.
These being Linda Schmidt, Paul, and my brother Sean. They are awesome friends and I'm proud to have them in my life.
Everyone else can fucking rot in hell as far as i'm concerned. Unless of course you are one of my friends that doesnt live
in winnipeg, giving you a valid excuse for missing my bday :) then i love you tons still :) lol...
True Friends do not miss an 18th birthday celebration
True Friends do not make excuses..
If this is confusing anyone, let me tell you all a little something that may help you understand... I invited around
27 people to come to Buffalo Bills last night to celebrate my 18th birthday with me. Guess how many showed up.. 3. Hell my
brother and Andrew showed up, and they werent even invited! that makes it a grand total of 24 fucking morons that i THOUGHT
were my friends, and decided to be no shows and liars. Thanks a lot. Ooh and have i gotten any apologies? 3. From
Laura Millar and Scott, who I didnt even expect to come, and Matt Hildebrand was nice enough to phone and apologize :) They
all had damn good reasons not to come too. Shows how mature the rest of you are.
Saturday, November 23rd, 2002
I'm just gonna fill you guys in on whats going on point blank. Lets make this nice and quick... I'm sick, seemingly getting
worse but it better be gone by tuesday, Matthew still isnt out of the hospital but is planning to be out on monday, catching
the next plane here so he doesnt miss my bday, Darren and I called it quits yesterday, planning on still being friends :),
and.. I work tonight. woo fricken hoo. Oh and I'm trying to get a VIP list for 30 set up, if only the friggen manager at Buffalo
Bills would call Linda back. grr. so yeah ttyl
Sunday, November 10th, 2002
Holy shit does this need updating or what!? Okay so last i left off, I was going shopping with my man, and matthew was

Ozan :) He is a super cool guy and get this.. we are both sarcastic as hell :D its great! lol.. ohh and Matthew isnt here
quite yet :( He's been stuck in the hospital for the past week, unable to leave or his insurance wouldnt pay up.. and his

Thursday, October 24th, 2002
alright i have lots to say, but where should i start... Bringing Kendra to Galaxy was a good idea :) She had tons of
fun, and I got my old job back. My dad hates it and has been bitching for me to "get a real job" since i only get 3 shifts
a week, but im not doing it for the money! I love my job.. so yeah.. Linda came to the family reunion thing and we had fun
:) God Kenny is fucking gorgeous.. 3rd cousins wouldnt make it incest would it? :p i hope not! and mmm you should hear him
sing..man alive he's good! what else.. Mel trained me in Box Office on Monday.. and it was way too stressful >.< Backtracking
a day, Sunday night i was trying to plan a house party since my mom and Barrie were going out to the lake. But i couldnt get
enough ppl to come :( and i couldnt find anyone with a car that could buy the alcohol for me, and get it to my moms... so
i cancelled the party, and me and Darren went and saw The Transporter. A really kick-ass action movie :) kinda like James
Bond meets Jackie Chan -ish :D and hmm what else is new..1 month and 2 days until my birthday!!! :D yaaaaay!!!! ooh and last
night i went to Scott's and we watched The Others. I had already seen the first half, but i was dying to see the rest, so
we rented it. It was actually not bad. kinda Sixth Sense-ish. and tonight im hopefully gonna hang out with Trent for a bit
so i can get my hug :) I work tomorrow night from 6:45 till 1 am.. and i think on saturday too.. from 9:15am to 12.. soo yeah.
Despite how it sounds, I need a life! :P Congrats Cara on getting hired at WalMart, and earning 20 cents an hour more than
what Pat earsn!! :D ha.. I'm out.
Thursday, October 17th, 2002
Okay so whats been going on with me.. lets recap shall we? :p tuesday, went to WPC and got my yearbook, and on
the way home got totally snubbed by Jon and Curtis on the bus.. Jon you fucking retard. lol Wednesday i met Linda at Portage
Place at 4:...20 :p and we went shopping, ate dinner at A &W, and then to our surprise, saw Jon and Curtis getting onto
a bus. So i yelled "JERK", Jon waved (like the dumbass he is) and then we went down to catch our bus. We went and visited
Micheline and Daniel, the kids Linda used to babysit for, and then we went and saw the movie Tuck Everlasting. really
great movie, really stupid ending. but yes... today i.. did nothing. LOL big surprise eh? :D tomorrow.. ooh friday! I'm maybe

Yesterday was the coolest day ever. :) I got a phone call yesterday from a friend of mine that lives in Alberta, saying
that she was in Winnipeg on vacation and wanted me to come out for coffee with her to catch up. So we did that it was wicked,
and I got home just in time to hear that my step mom was going out for the evening, and my dad had no plans. so i invited
him to come to Galaxy with me :) He agreed to come and go rollerskating, and he even invited my friend Brenda from Alberta
to come with us :D. Now i should probly prep you on -how- she is my friend. Brenda is 43, and her and her twin brother Brian
(my dads best friend) used to all hang out together in highschool. Brenda and my dad were even highschool sweethearts :).
But Brenda moved off to Alberta and got married, my dad met my mom, and that was it for 20 years. So 3 years ago (summer
of 99) my dad and I took a road trip out to see her. We stayed at her cabin, which was just a short drive from Edmonton, and
spent a few days at the West Edmonton Mall. So it was an absolutely fantastic summer, one I will never forget, and I hadnt
seen her since then. So you can imagine my surprise when she called me up. Anyways so we brought her rollerskating with us.
Watching them try to rollerskate was the funniest thing ever. lol. But they had a great time chating and what not, and to
my surprise, I found all the friends that I havent seen for months and forgot about. Here i was, feeling down because I havent
seen practically any of my friends in about 4 months, and I really wasnt sure if i had any left. I was originally planning
to go to Galaxy, not even sure if there would be anyone i knew there. But when i walked in that building and had 10 good buddies
come hug me, I felt SO good :) shamefully, i had forgotten about them all completely when i was thinking who my friends were.
But bruce, brad, sean, matt, sam, tauja, jaime, curtis, rob, and jeff all know how to really make a girl feel welcome :)
Ahhh i just loved it!!! I cant wait to go back next friday and surprise them all since I told them i wouldnt be going again
for awhile *snicker*. Mwhaha. Ahhh Galaxy.. so many memories. I luv you guys :)
Tuesday, October 8th, 2002
Woo hoo!!!!! Cara and I went to the Legislative Building tonight to see the queen :D when we got there we got our spot
along some ropes (in front of the hot OBO security guards ;) and waited, while listening to the free concert that was going
on. Then the fireworks started, which were absolutely wicked cool. I've never liked fireworks a day in my life, except the
ones that Dale showed me from Canada Day in Vancouver. but these ones i love. we were right under them, so they were kinda
really loud, but still gorgeous :D And we saw the queen!! we think. lol there were like 20 people walking up the steps
at once, so it was kinda hard to see her, but it was either the lady in blue, or the lady in green. both were moving kinda
slow, so who knows.. but whichever one she was, we saw her!!! :D lol then we stood around as the crowd made its way down broadway....
and soon walked to SubWay to eat. then we hung out there and her dad picked us up and drove me home. woooo what an awesome
night :D even if we didnt see the queen, hanging out with cara, was the best!! She gave me some pics from 2 summers ago when
we went to the Tragically Hip's concert at the Forks, and i think i will post them on my site. i hate them though, but you
will see. i was so chubby and ugh.. you may not recognize me :p but good luck!! anyways im fucken tired. lol goodnight!!
Monday, October 7th, 2002
Ohhhh man :) i cant say enough about last night! :) The dinner was fun, the movie was excellent (The Red Dragon) (prequel
to Silence of the Lambs) and all the stuff in between and after was absolutely great :) Darren you are awesome and i
luv you so much :) Soooo god damn smart, and i am so proud of you :) I read over your agenda for tuesday and wednesday, and
it sounds sweet :) i hope you have fun, and i hope to see you sometime soon :) you are tha best!
Sunday, October 6th, 2002
hmm okay so I still have to go to walmart and drop off my knife, name badge, discount card, etc. but i'll get around
to it one of these days im sure :p Man.. i feel really bummed out right now. maybe its because in the past week, or not even
past week. in the last 3 days i have made and lost 2 friends :( both because I said something that 1 second later i wished
i hadnt. i really gotta learn to think before i speak sometimes :/ but anyways...Darren and I are going out for dinner and
a movie tonight, and maybe some shopping too :) all my treat. I picked up an application after breakfast today (i went with
my dad and linda and friends for breakfast at Bellamy's restaurant on Dakota, 9 of us total). I will drop off the application
either later today when i go out, or tomorrow. yay full time at Buckaroo's!!! LMSAO <--- thats Laughing My
Sexy Ass Off, if any of you are wondering :) umm so what else.... i wanna hang out with my friends :( where are all you guys?
call me up! 1 and a half months and i can finally join you guys at the bar. :D .. Thanksgiving is coming up, and im gonna
treat my family to a meal out.. rather than having my grandma cook she's tired and has arthitis and stuff, so its just not
nice to expect her to cook again even if it is tradition. so im taking my fortune and treating them to a nice meal :) Hehe
(and NO im not doing this so that i get anything spectacular for my bday ;) lol ) ... anyways im bored so im gonna go to my
room and listen to music.. and maybe write or sketch. ttyl guys!!
Sunday, September 29th, 2002
No one reminded me that yesterday was Melanie Spencers birthday!! i guess i should have remembered. but i didnt realize
it until last night at work that the date was actually the 28th. i wish i would have known that earlier so i could have phoned
her. hell its been what like 4-5 years since ive talked to her... and if any of you are wondering, she was my neighbour when
i lived in my old house. We were best friends since.. well as far as I can remember. Then i moved to windsor park and we lost
touch :( but anyways.. gone to see a couple of movies now. K19: the widowmaker, Swimfan, and Four Feathers. K19 and swimfan
were OK but man... Four Feathers, to me, is absolutely fantastic. Its so empowering. As soon as i see it come out on video
i am SO buying it. Heath Ledger did an Oscar worthy performance! and he's so damn gorgeous. lol umm what else should i add
in here. I'm quitting WalMart soon. Handing in my 2 week notice to Jan on November 1st. I just cant take it anymore. all i
get is complainst from her, and she pulled me into her office thursday night for the 1st of 3 warnings. the 3rd one being
getting fired... so after i broke down in her office and almost punched a wall on my way back to work, I've decided that enough
is enough. Plus all the sexual harrassment is a bit too much to handle >.< Always guys looking at me, checking me out,
saying "Shana you look good today" with a wink, and "hey cutie" is really REALLY bad. especially on a daily basis. bah. but
enough pity. im really tired (it being 2:30pm right now and i havent slept since i woke up at 5pm yesterday) so yes... NEED
SLEEP. zzzzzzzzzzzzz
Monday, September 23rd, 2002
Today started off great :) woke up, taked to Darren, then went out and ran some errands with him, went to the mall that
Barrie used to work in (i forget the name... the one on McPhillips. not Garden City) and went to the movie theatre there and
saw K19: the Widowmaker :) it was really good. i always wanted to have a boyfriend that i could go to movies with and cuddle.
;) Anyways then we drove around, and ended up in Lockport, where we had supper at the Sonia's place... a burger/french fries/all
the grease you can handle place :) and that was wicked.. and mmm yummy. then after that we drove around, stopped and made
out :D and then drove back into the city, all the while having a long talk. Well mostly he talked. i listened. which i love
doing :) and he drove me home. So my day was great, and as fun as ever :) Then i walked inside my house to have everything
do a 180 on me, with my dad bitching/yelling at me about my mom. She's gone completely insane now i think. :/ but i just feel
so sorry for mike and linda :( they really didnt need to hear my dad and i pointlessly yelling at each other.but thats all
over now, everything is good between my dad and i, and tomorrow i am going to phone my mother and bitch her out. that shall
be fun :p riiiight. and so i just finally talked to darren on msn, so im feeling a lot better. I still think Darren is wonderful,
incase anyone was wondering :) a total sweety and i feel privileged to know him :) But.. im going to cuddle up on my couch
now and think about stuff... so i will check back in here within the next couple days and update again. See ya, wouldnt wanna
be ya! lol jk take it easy.
Monday, September 23rd, 2002
Its 2:40 am and im still awake because i just got home from my date with Darren a little while ago and I know he's gonna
be reading this, so I'm gonna try and mush it up as much as possible. mwhahah. As of tonight, I am dating the sweetest, smartest,
hottest guy! He lives in WhyteRidge and is a pilot :) and.. gee i dunno what to say! im just ecstatic :)We met up, watched
SwimFan (which we were 20 minutes late for, totally my fault of course :p) and it was OK. kinda.. well kinda predictable.
I think i saw the exact same concept used somewhere else. like on Are You Afraid of the Dark or something. But since thats
a kids show, there was probly a lot less sex.lol ANYWAYS, I really really really! like Darren :) and i hope that this lasts
a very long time. We have so much in common, and he's just absolutely fab :) But im gonna go now and do some email stuff.
so I'll talk to you all later! :) God i love FTJ. <3
Wednesday, September 18th, 2002
I love getting good advice :D my friend Michelle at work has now convinced me to go into nursing again :D hah! mainly
becuz wehn i said to her "yeah but i cant just go in it for the money can i??" expecting a "you're right. you should love
the career" but instead i got a "of course you can!!! thats what its about now, money. you have to do it for the money." LOL
that made me day :) so yeah im gonna phone the Faculty of Nursing, find out some stuff (like how long the waiting list is)
and im gonna apply for either Next Semester at the U of M, or next year. i dont have to reapply if i want courses next semester
tho, which is good. yay!!! hah. i feel like a huge weight has been lifted off me, now that ive decided what im actually gonna
do. And no more changing my mind! not about school anyways ;) heh. but ummm yes. Go me!
Monday, September 16th, 2002
What a busy weekend! met up with Neil the U of M today :) we hung out there for a couple hours.. heh and it was so much
fun :D i dont wanna say anything to be mushy, but...he's a sweety and he's hot. lol. ummm I dunno today was a great day! :D
except my dad has been using the computer all night, and this is my only chance to be on it before i go to bed :( im real
tired. 13 more minutes until he gets on it again! booo urns. Anyways Neil if you're reading this, thanks for the great day
:) i love the campus! lol its so gorgeous, especially in the shade ;) ... ttyl :)
Sunday continued...
Okay ive updated my site again, and i just want to point out that you should all click on the words Check THIS Out on
the front page of my site. In that link is my 2nd page to my site. including my poetry, those wonderful virtual dolls of my
friends, and some newly added lyrics. I'm not really sure if anyone has even clicked that link yet, but you all should :)
It's good stuff!
Sunday, September 15th, 2002
In an attempt to confuse you all, and even after yesterday's long post, i have decided to stick it out with chris :).
the whole msn thing is probably all in my head, and im stupid to let go of someone that sweet, just because he talks to girls.
And here's something i figured out while at work. I CANNOT believe that i was stupid enough to let Michael guilt trip me into
feeling bad about the guys ive been with. I was with them when i was SINGLE. For the last week i have felt absolutely
awful with myself, and for no reason at all. He's the one that has been cheating on his fucking girlfriend. like for
fuck sakes already. Cheating is the lowest of the low to me. i despise it. So any respect I had for him, is now way way down...
I just cant believe how guilty i felt, and im ending it as of now. No more guilt for being with other guys, no more tears,
and i am as of now, tearing myself away from any romantic feelings i may have towards him. Its funny how being rejected makes
you open your eyes and see things for what they are. And my eyes are WIDE open. anyways, thats it for now i guess. lol look
at the contrast between posts in two days. My mind is a busy busy place. I of course still want to be friends, but.. thats
as far as that goes. I care for him, of course i care for him.but this is where i draw the line. I'm out.
CAUTION: the following entry was made for the reading of one person, and one person only. and he knows who he is, so
all you other guys can just.. go check out my profile! mwhaha...
Saturday, September 14th, 2002
Last night was the absolute greatest night out that i have had in a long time. It has really got me thinking about what
the hell im doing. All night at work, all i thought about was Michael, Michael, do i wanna be with chris or not, and Michael.
And here's what it all boils down to. Want i want in my life right now is a boyfriend. a REAL boyfriend. one that i can see
once week, maybe more, maybe less depending on our schedules, someone who respects me, loves me, and knows me inside and out.
Calling me is a big bonus, and so is dropping by unexpectedly :) I gotta have a man with a car, a job, and a direction in
life. and i must be able to trust him completely. Which i think is my big problem with Chris. See he has this msn list full
of girls, and well... frankly i dont trust that too much. I have an msn list full of guys, and i know how i am with them,
and i would hate it if he was talking to other chicks the way he talks to me. make sense? i had the same problem with trent.
no trust = no shana. I luv them both dearly, absolutely great guys, but not for me. And I want a serious, committed boyfriend.
one that i can take to work christmas parties, and bring home for a family dinner. And finally, i want to be able to answer
the question "hey shana, got a boyfriend?" im sick of having to say "no" and "im not sure". that sounds freakin awful. And
Michael, I love you with all of my heart. Always have, and always will. I think you know that, but i just wanted to say it
again. Last night almost made me cry. I dont think ive ever felt so special, so put on a pedestal in my whole life. and i
thank you for that :). I guess what i need right now is a decision. And i always hate it when people give me an ultimatim,
but here it goes. I really do think you are the guy that fits into all of the qualities above. and so i think im trying to
say, that either a) stick it out with Amanda and I will stick it out with chris, or b) we can both get rid of them and be
together. To me, this whole choice thing sounds awful. but i really dont know what else to do. and im really hoping that you
make the choice that i want you to :p not to put pressure on you or anything. lol. anyways im starting to ramble, and im gonna
go get some sleep since i just got home from work. Call me or write me to let me know whats happening? okay im out. love ya.
Sunday, September 8th, 2002
okay WTF. lol i hate tripod!!! i just spent 20 minutes writing this long post about how great im feeling today, lol and
it doesnt even add it to my site! geez um crow. okay lets start over. :p it rained this morning, and im hoping it will clear
up :) then i can hang out with chris!!! he's a basketball player too, and we all know how much i love my basketball :D and
if you dont, well now you know! lol. umm yeah anyone hear that wicked thunder this morning around.. 5:30ish?? it shook the
walls of WalMart, and so we were all hoping that the walls would come down so that we could leave. :) but./.. in hindsight,
i guess if they did come down, we'd be dead...lol so maybe its a good thing they didnt, huh? :p well here i am sitting on
msn with no one talking to me :p and listening to music. "West Siiiiiiide!" yes. im listening to West Side Connection :D (thats
rap btw, lol) so sue me! heh im in a great mood :D i just wish the sun would come out. ANYWAYS, back to my rap. see ya laterz!!!
Friday, September 6th, 2002
The moron outside is revving his car engine AGAIN today. which is what woke me up at 11 this morning. fricken bastard.
someone should put a bullet in his windsheild. mwhaha. ANYWAYS, this isnt what i wanted to talk about, lol. I'm down to 150
lbs now!! and as i discovered tonight while doing laundry, even my spandex shorts are baggy on me now. lol. im not saying
this is a good thing. this is a bad thing. i keep on losing weight! i started a year ago (last june) when i went on a health
kick, and now its out of control. usually when i weigh myself right after getting out of the shower, i weigh less than i do
dry with all my clothes on. but yesterday i weighed myself dry and it was exactly 150. i almost screamed. but anyways,
lol yay yay yay im skinny! :p umm and i get to see Chris on sunday :D its supposed to rain.. but i dont care about getting
a little soaked. he's great (and im still wearing the necklace he gave me.. and im not planning on taking it off :p). anyways
im cramped up, and bleeding >.< so i guess i should buy some stuff after work. blah i know you are just wanting to yell
TMI!!. heh. 9:17. i should go shower. ttyl!
P.S. check out the My PhotoAlbum to see some pics of Chris :)
Thursday sidenote:
my heart hurts.
Thursday, September 5th, 2002
Bought new boots :D bought new jeans. boots are Genuine Italian Leather. pointed toes, stiletto heels. just thinking
about them makes me wanna drool! lol god they are cute. and i looked damn hot today! But yeah. shopped, came home from work,
talked to Chris on msn. Chris is a guy i met on www.facethejury.com (one of the many winnipeggers). and so i met him today since he skipped class :p he's 18, 6'6, and really nice :) heh. But
yeah i took a nice long HOUR AND A HALF bus ride to his house :p had to walk all the way down freakin mcphillips in my boots
which killed me, and then we sat and watched Days :D even tho he hates it :p but i know he doesnt! heh otherwise he wouldnt
have kept switching back! but yeah. Michael and I had a long talk tonight. i wont go into details but lets just say.. tears
were shed on my part, many in fact (what else is new, right? shaddup! :p)... and i think we're better off this way. "this
way" being not talking :( woo hoo fun... umm so yeah. saw curtis on the bus on the way home from Chris' house. got
filled in on lots of Galaxy gossip >:) . DID YOU KNOW.. ahh heh nm :p but yeah. gotta work tomorrow night. but only 2 more
nights before my 2 days off :D hooray! Wal-Mart sucks. but they're looking for overnight people!! lol so come apply!! :P ANYWAYS.. i should be sleeping, but im not tired (its 12:43 am friday morning).. and i cant believe no one has gotten
up to say "go to bed shana!!" yet. heh cuz they can hear my typing... :) SUCKERS! lol. but anywho... later
Wednesday, September 4th, 2002
my apologies for yesterday's post. but man that felt good. anyways, work last night was great :D this week of work has
been awesome come to think of it. every night since my evaluation has just gotten better and better. I'm in a much better
mood now, (if you cant tell :D) mostly cuz i went shopping after work!! lol and spent $60 on myself :D mwhahaha. Bought a
bra, thong, calendar whiteboard, and the latest issue of Cosmo :D heh.now i know "THE #1 THING HE CRAVES DURING SEX: A move
so hot it's guaranteed make him sing O-Canada"!! oh wait.. i know that move already :p hell i must have co-written this
book in a past life. lol i will just leave you with something from one of the articles titled "15 Places to have "Fast Love"".

Tuesday, September 3rd, 2002
Alright, once again i have changed my mind. i DO want a boyfriend, and im sick of not having one. im also sick of crying,
getting yelled at by someone (he will remain nameless) for the decisions that i am making. YES im thinking about going to
Red River. YES im getting shit on at work in more way than one, and YES i need someone to talk about it with. and NO i dont
want my licence right now. I will get it when i turn 18. then atleast i can use it as ID. and i dont want to drive a car,
i want to drive a motorcycle like this. so there. im done this rant. im mostly pissed off becuz this is my 1 day weekend, and when i tried to make plans for last
night, they didnt work out. surprise surprise.
Sunday, August 25th, 2002
this has been a bad weekend :( well, saturday at 2pm i went with dad and linda to the Legaslative grounds for Stacey's
wedding pics... god she was so beautiful. such a gorgeous couple, her and steve. aww! then at 4:30 was the wedding at BreezyBend
Golf & Country Club. waaay out on Roblin Boulevard. anyways that was beautiful. a nice outside wedding right on the edge
of the golf course. The reception afterwards was awesome, with the Best Man Dale, giving the funniest speech i ever heard.
what a guy. And if that didnt make me cry, Stacey and Steve's speeches did it. I luv them both! well i went there with no
date, much to my misery as i found out, since everyone there had a date with them (except for Dale, mike and mike.. but they
are too old :p) and so i ended up dancing most of the time to slwo songs with Trent. god i love you trent!!! what a sweetheart.
Trent is Linda's 3 year old nephew from California. The cutest little guy in the whole U S of A i bet... and he just loved
me to pieces. he came up to me during dinner and said "I wanna dance with you" and im like "awww! okay!" heh. and so we danced.
a lot. Finally we came home at 1 am this morning, to a message on our answering machine from my mom. it went like this
"hello this is Diana Robbins. I'm calling for Shana. Please call me hun. One of Barrie's family members has died." Barrie,
being my moms boyfriend of 4 years. So i phoned her back. no one answered as i later found out, was becuz they were in bed.
This morning i awoke to the phone ringing. it was my mom. ohh man here come the tears.... gimme a sec. Okay. im alright. It
was Barrie's brother Brian that passed away.. friday night/saturday morning. Supposedly it was a heart attack, with internal
bleeding of some sort, but we dont know for sure yet. god he was only in his 40's. We will find out what the autopsy reveals
soon... god i feel so bad for Kyle, his 16 year old son. ... anyways.. im done now. im hungry.. ttyl
*RIP Brian Kjernisted*
Friday, August 23rd, 2002
Okay so here's the scoop. i hope you guys could all find the place okay since i had to change the address a bit. hopefully
it will only be temporary until i get the html working again for .com/. Its raining here right now. i woke up 20 minutes ago
to heavy rain/hail, and now it seems to have died down. and, its Barrie's 50th birthday today, so i think my mom wanted everyone
to come over to her house. And i was planning on it, but now... well this weather just plain sucks! I dont wanna go out in
it! Okay. for anyone that likes me right now (not to sound conceited, im just frustrated) i DO NOT want or have time, for
a boyfriend. This goes for you Josh. and Landon. And i guess anyone else that has a secret crush on me too :p I saw michael
yesterday :D for a quicki.... umm i mean.. a brief visit ;) hehehe ... but yes. went shopping this morning after work, bought
some stuff like.. ohh crest Whitestrips.. and stuff. Did i already say that Austin Powers 3 is terrible? ohhh yeah i
guess i did. My buddy Ben from Toronto is a so totally sexy :) and YES ben, i mean that :) Hopefully i can visit him sometime
soon on my next visit to the T. O. (spell it out :p Tee dot Oh dot. :D) Oh and im now thinking about going to Red River College
instead, and taking an X-ray nurse course.. or X-ray physician.. or whatever the hell its called :p does anyone know the web
address for their site? if you do, please email me it, with "RRCC" in the subject line. :) thanks.
Wednesday, August 21st, 2002
okay so here i am, just got home from work an hour ago, and i think im gonna go to bed. but here's what ive been doing
these past few days. #1 went to see Signs with landon. VERY good. majorly an awesome movie and every one of you should see
it! #2 went on a blind date with a guy named josh. ummm that went well. we went to branigans for supper, then saw austin powers
3. which totally sucks. only a few major laugh out loud parts, and.. other than farting jokes, and stupid NOT funny other
stuff, the movie had no storyline. good thing i didnt pay to see it ;) heh. Oh and what else. i have an account at www.facethejury.com so feel free to go on there and see my profile, and even rate me if you wish :) my username is shanabing02 . ummm i meet
SO many guys on there. its the #1 place to be i guess for meeting guys. ive met 3 guys from close by. 2 from winnipeg, and
one from regina, who wants to come to winnipeg to visit... and i met this SUPER hot guy named Sasha from montreal. omg girls
you wont believe your eyes..... :D anyways im majorly tired, im gonna go to my grandma's today and pick up my check from all
the money in my trust fund (almost $3000) and.. yes. im thinking about stopping by safeways and doing some shopping. oh yeah
and i want to make a hair appointment to get my hair layered, and.. Stacey's wedding is on Saturday and michael said he would
come with me. but that was 3 weeks ago and i cant get ahold of him! so maybe i will phone him today. okay.. im going now.
see ya'll later
Monday, August 19th, 2002
okay so technically its tuesday morning, but whatever. Ive added more Funny Pics, and I have lots more on the way. :D
im just REALLY tired right now, can barely keep my eyes open. oh and btw, i saw the new movie Signs tonight, and it is Amazingly
good. Scary, funny, its got it all. Anyone that said it sucks is a friggin LIAR. you have to see it, ya hear me? alright go
see it now. im gonna go see it again soon. GO SEE SIGNS! You won't be disappointed. :D alright i will post again tomorrow,
or, today i guess, when i wake up and am less tired. talk to you then!
Friday, August 16th, 2002
I got paid today :D amazing that just yesterday i had only $20 in my account, and now i have $400 :D heh i
wanna go shopping!! anyone wanna come? >:) umm oh yeah i have decided that right now just isnt the right time for me to
go to University. I told everyone that i wanted to go into nursing, and so they all thought that i meant that i wanted to
be a nurse. But i dont. i just want the $$, and so with a new revelation brought on by the stress of trying to register for
classes, i have come to the conclusion that im not sure what career i want to pursue, and so im taking a year off. Hell how
am i supposed to get used to all these changes? i may be a goddess, but im no SuperWoman :) School ended, Claire left, Graduation
came and went, started my first job, ended it, and started another, and THEN i have to deal with university? nope.. i just
cant handle that much shit right now. so im going to relax, work, save up all the money i can, and try and figure out what
it is that i truly want to spend my life doing. After dealing with Asshole Jon this past week, i have decided that I really
dont have time for a boyfriend right now. I want one, but i also want sleep :p oh! how can i choose!!! :p sleep it is :D..

to the lake for Sunday Monday tuesday, or any of those divided... my dad and linda are going to Falcon Lake for the week,
and my mom and Barrie are going to Bird Lake for a week... and since i have sunday/monday off, i want to go out!! but not
alone... but anyways yes.. i just found out that i get paid from Wal-Mart every 2 weeks, not every week, so i guess that explains
why my bank account didnt have $100 extra bucks in it yesterday >.< and yes.. working in HBA every night like i do,
(thats that Health and Beauty section in Walmart), has shown me lots of cool stuff i want/need to buy.... like hair dye, and
stuff...anyways I WANT A BOYFRIEND. and i need to get laid :p but the first one is much more important :) and.. hmmm
i'm skinny!!!! :D i never really noticed it until recently :D and man am i happy... heh.. so yeah... word of the day is "....
ahh shit i forget!! damn! i had this cool word at work that i kept saying, and now i forget it!! ahhhhh.... i wanna go to
Toronto... and see Matt. and what else... oh yeah! how could i forget... I tried to register for my classes at the U of M,
and it wouldnt let me register for ANY of them! out of like 15!!!! bah i dont know what to do anymore... my life doesnt suck,
but it sure is complicated >.< Have a good one! :) *smirks*
 Tuesday, who knows what the date is.., 2002

Man... working midnights has got my sleep patterns all fucked up. i have every sunday night and monday night off, but
due to my new routine of midnights, i can no longer fall asleep until around 8 am. It's soooo shitty. god dammit. anyways,

Well okay i had an interview with Walmart today.It went well, but not exactly fantastic. I dunno.. i'm kinda feeling
iffy on whether or not i will get hired. And OOH we just saved some of the wedding photos onto the comp, so i can make that
wedding album right now! hee.... and hmm what else.. I rollerbladed to my moms on friday because it was her 50th birthday..
and then i stayed there until this morning when she drove me to the interview. On Friday, Sean, Heather, my mom and I went
down to a play during the Fringe Festival. It was called "What Do You Think" and it was an improv show.. VERY funny. Then
last night, my mom and I went to my Grandmother's house for dinner, and saw another play, this one called "The Big Stupid
Improv Show" ALSO very hilarious.. way better than the WDYT one. It had us rolling with laughter :D all for $7? great deal!!!
so yes.. i wanna go to the beach sometime this week, so if any of you wanna come with me, let me know... and Thank You
everyone who regularly visits my site :D I love ya'll sooo much and im SO flattered that you guys enjoy my site! (and if you
DONT enjoy it.. then well i have nothing to say to you :P) ttyl!!

The wedding, was OH so gorgeous :D it was outside, in a backyard, and we had a wedding tent, and the weather was beautiful,
and awww it was picture perfect :D When they started reading their vows to each other, it was just... soo cute. Well
my dad started reading his vows.. and you know that funny voice you get when you know you are gonna cry, but you are trying
to hold it back? well he was talking with that voice, and that alone made me start crying soo much. It was just so cute :)
they were sooo happy :D and once i bring the pictures up from downstairs, i will scan all the real important ones into their
own special wedding photoalbum on my site :) so watch for that! :D and hmm what else... they left for their honeymoon tuesday
afternoon, and returned home today at like 5.. and i couldnt get the smile off my face :) They wouldnt stop asking me "whats
up? why are you in such a good mood?" but i wouldn't say anything other than "ohhh nothing" :) i guess i was so smiley for
2 reasons... #1, i love to see them so happy :) and #2, Michael and i are.. better than ever :) i am the love of his life,
and he is mine... and im just.. ecstatic about the whole thing :) I kinda had a bit of a scare last night, but it was all
in my head... soooo all i have to say is, I need to buy more high heels!! ;) and that little saying is only going to be understood
by one person, but thats okay :) awww im all smiley and.... and well gay :P Gay in the olden days sense.... you know.. happy?
:D well im gonna go now and mush myself to death.. downstairs where its cool... and yeah :d OHHH and i made a new friend :)

get rid of it... so if you want it, let me know and i'll only charge you $5 :P ... and I'm trying to get ahold of Michael

Guys have SO much to learn about commenting us, don't they girls? sheesh! don't say things like "you look beautiful",
and then follow it up with a " and one day you will look even better!" because shit like that just doesnt fly. i swear there

those dinner pics huh? lol now all i have to do is wait for my mom to get her film developed, and i will have more!!
MORE!!! lol... yeah so i wish that night didnt have to end. in fact, i wish it was still going on RIGHT now... take me back

to, but it was well worth it.. yay i get paid on friday!! Joy! now i can buy myself all new cool stuff... Holy shit am i rambling

prick is going around Furc saying that I'm dead.. well here's some helpful info : I'M NOT! I'm alive and well, and feelin
great. Almost time for grad! one month away.. Exciting stuff! This summer my dad and his fiance Linda are getting married!

ones in the picture.. lol so umm yeah all i have left to say is..... Out of my way Jerk ass!
Wednesday, April 3rd, 2002.. my first entry.
-Hooray for hump day! tonight, i have the teen talk monthly meeting. That's it for my plans :P Tomorrow, I have the great
honour of having to call the U of M and clear up my new address and phone number changes. Wow. LOL this entry is just over
flowing with excitement and thrills, eh? Ack! i said eh! damn it.. I played right into the typical Canadian stereotype. Next
i will be saying something about donuts, or mounties right? No fricken way! i don't play by any rules except my own.. And
i mean that literally. I cheat at solitare! mwhaha i bet you didnt know THAT about me now did you. thats what i thought. Yes,
i know, i have a funny way of only sometimes using the proper spelling, capitilization and puncuation rules.. but i guess
that just sums up the fact that i am strange. anyone that knows me well enough knows the true definition of my unique capabilities
of which i use to my best advantage.. Right now you are probly saying to yourself, "huh??" and to that i say Damn Right. If
you are still reading this, you are more loyal than i thought. If it was me reading this, i would have been gone long ago.
Wait a minute, i AM reading this. and im bored. Oh look! that dog has a poofy tail! ----->
