Bridges Burned

Posted on 8 July 2009 by jeanneji

I was running down this long wooded path when I get a fair warning about running into the giant rodent infestation by the bridge. I didn’t know what to expect, but I eventually made it to a giant covered bridge and was on my way through when there was a giant blockage and there was no way through. They were giant rats, pillars and rocks. As I stepped into the bridge, my feet caused it to shake and so I turned around to get out of there. I was getting really freaked out.

I run back out to find Kelsey going in to investigate. I tell her what’s there and not to go in because it is not safe, but she goes against what I say. I’m standing in the clearning on a slight hill and just hear her jumping around, purposely shaking and disrupting the bridge. Eventually the trebles get so great that the bridges begins to crack and some of it starts slipping. Despite the bridge beginning to fall apart and catching her off guard, it does not stop her, and she keeps going. The bridge eventually sharts to shake some more pieces are falling.

The entire bridge soon gives way and she falls in with the mess and is screaming for my help. I run over trying to find where she is, but by the time I get there, I can still hear here but just seem some arms coming out through the massive rocks that have filled in the area. I grab her and pull her out though.

In another scene, there’s a surprise party being planned for someone, and I was there sooner than most people. It was actually a surprise to the non-recipient 😛 But I hung out for a while, just to see what I could help out with and not really stay for the party. I walk out with a group of people, but on the way out, there’s this Silver Acura Integra that i spot. I’m looking at the license plate – its JARED! I get so excited and I rush over to the driver door. He notices me and rolls down the window and we start chatting up. He’s there for the surprise party (as there is a group of people walking out from another area there for the party as well) and I told him about who was already there and to have fun.

Kiss Kiss

Posted on 1 July 2009 by jeanneji

My brother and I were at Pizza Hut. Again, I know. But we got an order of breadsticks and something. The bill came and I handed her a 10. She started counting change and what not, but then I realized I never saw the actual check and asked if that was enough. She replied, it covers the check but all you need is the tip now. I didn’t care so I was like, Ok! I’m going through my purse trying to find a few dollar (since the check wasn’t that much and I figure why not- she was nice).

She’s a cute girl; reminds me of one of the OLs at my school (weird). But She takes a seat across from me and my brother is off to the side somewhere. I pull out some fives, and I’m only looking for singles. I pull out some other bills: hundred dollars, two-hundred dollars, tens. Only 1 one. I pull out a movie ticket and my brother is suddenly in awe. He’s like, “You have a ticket?!” and I was thinking, they’re at Costco, so it’s not a big deal. He explains that the original Beast from Beauty and the Beast is back performing and doing some final shows and this is our last chance. I tell him that I can get more tickets if he wants to see it. I love Beauty and the Beast, so I didn’t mind at all.

There are about 7 cell phones that I pulled out along with everything else, but still no singles. Finally, someone gets the genius idea to break a five x_x Wow. So we took care of that.

We’re outside, myself, my brother and this waitress girl. They’re all talking and I figure, hey! Why don’t I invite her to see Beauty with us. Tickets come in pairs, and I already have one, so we’d have 3. Then they’re all talking and my brother is looking at her and says, “Why don’t you just hurry up and kiss me.” Something like that. But they’re both eyes closed and puckered, except not facing each other. What a mess, so I’m kinda there guiding them to each other (awkward). After the first kiss something, she makes this face (I’m thinking it was a bad one or something) but then they keep going. Tongue and all. So I left them there for a moment. We were starting to leave, everyone in the car when the girl says, “What about Kelsey?” I sigh. I forgot about her. I call her to find out where she is, and she’s in the house. Dumbass. She gets down to the 2nd floor where Kaitlyn and Brittney are. She whispers something to them, which I could hear, and she was about to dismount from the 2nd floor. She makes a hard landing and we’re all calling her stupid because there was a giant box with a beam coming out of it. She could have easily gotten onto the box, and then from the box to the ground easily. Nope. No logic in her.

There was another dream where I’m in a hospital type environment. I remember running by the dad in Malcolm in the Middle (also Breaking Bad) and he was trying to pass as a doctor. He was good with his terms about kidney stones and tachycardia, but some people didn’t buy his act. Even so, they went along with it. My portion of this was more of a straight walk to get somewhere. There was a lot of stuff in the way, but I get to the end of the path, and there’s a box at the bottom. I look up the steep slope and I start trekking up. I get about 5 feet from the top and the slope is just too much for me. I’m barely hanging on by the ledge, and there is all this stuff (boxes and such). If I move one of the boxes, the rest will move, and I’m already holding a few that have fallen on me. I look at the top and see some people moving things around and ask them how I can get up there. The kid replies, “Well you could probably just make some rules.” Rules. Like in Kings! So I made myself a rule about how if I could get up there, I’d be allowed to move the boxes out of the way. I pushed a whole stack of toys and boxes to find a step! I sit on the step, place some of the things that fell on me into nooks to hold, and I get to the top.

There was another dream that was really significant to me, but now I’m not remembering anymore…

Friends, Home

Finally Beginning

Posted on 30 June 2009 by jeanneji

On the 25th of June, 2009, our world cried. At first, we lost Farrah Fawcett, but later to find that we had lost our King of Pop, Michael Jackson. The day began with me prepping for my final exam in Microbiology (eww, gross) and just getting out of there. This is the official beginning of my summer, since I only had a week off between the end of the semester and the start of classes again. SUMMER, HERE I COME!

I left and went home. My mother’s birthday was the day before, so my brother and I gave her a box from Kays 🙂

With this ring, I have also decided that I am selling my beloved phone. It was a great time we had together, but financially it is not in my best interest.

We took my mom out for dinner after the gifting. I actually ran into Rob and his family while we were there 😛 That’s when we first heard about MJ.

So the day was great up until that news.

The next day was pretty exciting. Besides listening to Michael Jackson music all day with Jenn, we ran errands and went down to my house at school to pick up some things. From there, we went to Joji‘s ^^

I’ve been hearing about Joji since about 2006, so it was pretty exciting to meet him. He’s a half-Jap amazing jerk. Haha. He spent the last year in Japan, and so I envy him to an extent.

We started off by playing Floating Candy, but just switched to Kings. That was going pretty until towards the end of the 2nd round. Jenn ran off to the bathroom, and as she did that, I started feeling kinda sick and left the room. Jenn unfortunately locked the bathroom door and I ended up puking right there >_< I tried so hard to keep it down. I eventually got in, with only a handful of what was left, and finished my business and cleaned up. I sobered up pretty much right there. I just felt AWFUL for doing that to Joji‘s floor (and he even cleaned it up). That made me feel terrible and I helped him finish up the cleaning as Jenn was hanging over the toilet.

That aside, we asian bonded. I’m his bitch :O I like him. He’s my new BFF.

I ended up getting to bed at around 3 something in the morning, and then getting up at 6:30. Eventually, we made our way to IHOP which was yummy, but Jenn still wasn’t feeling well so it wasn’t as fun as it might have been. Joji drew a fantastic picture on the back of the placemat (it is officially framed, btw) and then we hung around for a bit before leaving. It was a pretty great time, in my opinion. Good times with great people.

Being there though, all the little Japanese things Joji had brought back so many memories. It’s sparked my love of Japan again. That night, Joji was speaking with his mother (who is where he gets his asian from) in <<Nihongo>> and that was seriously the best eargasm I’ve had in a long time. I was laying on the floor of the bathroom at the time and literally rolled over towards the door to listen. I wish I were fluent enough to hold a surprise Japanese conversation. Haha. Watashi wa neji desu ^________^ But yeah, I’ve been listening to all my T.M. Revolution, Iceman and rest of my J-Pop collection since and it just feels so right. Thank you, for bringing me back.

All I do now a days is hang out with Jenn. That’s what happened last summer too. We’re the only jobless ones and get along fantastically, so why not. We went down to the city to visit the kids at orientation. Met up with Jake and got some free food. Then met up with Janine and eventually trekked our way back home. I have to go back down in the morning to see my advisor, and maybe go to the Crayola Factory with Jenn, Kelsey and Devin? We’ll see.

I’m working on a new album too. I like the way the NextGen gallery works with WordPress, but the function isn’t as friendly as my other one (I’m just more used to it) and there are some features that I can configure on that one that I can’t here. Check it out! Like everything else, it’s a work in progress.

The Hut

Posted on 20 June 2009 by jeanneji

I remember being at Pizza Hut with Jenn, 2 guys and maybe a little kid. We’re sitting there enjoying food and chat. There was this smaller asian waiter guy walking around taking orders, and we had our guy. Not too far from us was this gut sitting by himself eating. He looked kinda weird in the lonely disturbed manner, but we weren’t going to have interaction. On the other end of the dining room, there was a table of asian guys that were kinda being jackasses and a table of 2 guys in the back.

With that table, the one guy was being very suspicious. He left the building for a little while. I decided to get some air, but I saw that he had just killed someone! I started going back in but then i see outside there was the creepy loner guy with the dead asian waiter laying across his booth! He looked at me and started saything how he didn’t mean for it to happen, but he just couldn’t control it. There was that sign of remorse, but I was still scared.

I get back inside and take a seat on the other end, and the person I was sitting next to was like “Aw, now I have to sit over in this corner by myself. That’s lame.” But I was sitting there just freaking out at what I just saw. The table of asian guys were kinda mocking me and Jenn told me about it, but I didn’t care because it was serious. I kept trying to recall the 2 guys incase I would have to pick them out from a line-up or just share what I knew. I kept imagining seeing these missing persons flyers and knowing exactly what happened to them.

We left at some point and ended up at the the suspicious guy’s house. We ran into his dad and started talking to him. We asked him about his garbage that was sitting out and suddenly he was like, I don’t remember having all this trash. He starts pulling up bags and towards the bottom is a foreign garbage bag. We pull that out and laying inside was a body. The body.

I don’t remember what happend after, but I went into another dream. We were in my house and there was a little kid, Johnny and Missy, others (unclear). I had my legs resting out on this other chair and the little kid was playing around. He started approaching me and I asked him if he thought he could jump over my legs. He took a running start and cleared it. It was pretty cool for a tiny kid. Bad idea for babysitting though. Then I see Johnny doing some ridiculous dumb stuff and I start filming, as I do. The recording was through a little cup (weird) and so we were watching the playback through the cup (like reading tea leaves in Harry Potter). We enjoyed it. It was a good laugh. I had another dream and came back to this one and wanted to show Johnny and Missy because they missed it earlier, but then we started getting distracted and didn’t even get to see it.

The third dream, I remember there was me, some guy, a woman and her husband or boyfriend, some minor others. The guy and woman were having an affair, but she didn’t love her hubo (thats my hubby boyfriend abbrev.) anymore and they were going to tell him tonight about it. We had set up a christmas tree earlier, but someone said we should move it out to the entry way of the house. The chick thought that was the perfect time to get him out there by themselves and tell him. As we’re moving the tree, some things start falling off and we have to re-do them. But then she finally tells him, and he wasn’t shocked. I’m standing there the whole time working on this tree. A little girl is helping me, and we’re pulling these metal things off that no longer have branches. Something, there’s more but I can’t remember.

Drip Drip

Posted on 16 June 2009 by jeanneji

So besides waking up to a soaked bed from the leaking skylight window, I had some memorable moments in my dreams. I wonder if I’ll be able to recall most of it by this time of day.

I remember going down 113 (road) towards my house. I’m with 2 other people, but I run into Annette to tell her about a crazy dream I had last night. The dream itself may have been something prior to me waking up from the rain, but I can’t say. I start telling her about how it was about Alexis Bledel and Lauren Graham (Gilmore Girls!) It was something about how they both gained weight, but they were still so sexy? And I turn to the guy behind me and was kind of in shock that I remembered the dream.

At another part, i was with Jenn in what seemed like my house. We were in Janine’s room, but in the front part, and there was a 2nd level. I see this little car drive by, its like an old school BMW (but I can’t remember now! ahhh) and I poitn it out to Jenn. She’s so excited. I move down to the 2nd floor of the room and I remember there were all sorts of vents for sale. Like the kind in the floor that blows air at you. But there were all sorts of different kinds. Super cool ones and regular ones. I remember looking at the one model and I was like, “Oh, they already replaced it with the newer model!” I think it was like the sony speakers I wanted that they don’t sell anymore.

That’s all I have right now.
