I Hate Vending Machines.
April 26, 2006
I really do hate them. It seems like on those rare occasions when I actually want to get something from the vending machines, they eat up my money. Then I have to chase the vice principle around and get my money back. Fucking vending machines. I tried to buy a pop and it ate my toonie. Then I tried to buy skittles and it got stuck in the machine. Devon and Kyla tried ramming into it a few times to loosen it but it didn’t work. When we left, Iain, one of Kathrynn’s friends, rammed into it and got them. He had a few then gave them to me because he’s nice - and he’s also very cute. I still am out two dollars though, and on break I’m going to hunt down the VP and get my money. Maybe I’ll even say that I didn’t get the skittles I paid for, someone else did. I probably won’t do that. There’s a way they can tell anyway and I don’t feel like getting caught.
Yesterday I had fun at the mall with Kyla, Crystal, Adam and Adam’s cousin Jeff. Adam and Jeff spent the majority of the time elsewhere while Kyla, Crystal and I shopped for presents. Kyla and I both have family with birthdays coming up. I couldn’t find anything at all, everything is so expensive. I did end up buying something. Mom doesn’t see how I spent 40 bucks on “nothing”. I gave Adam gas money because it was the nice thing to do, I had lunch at McDonalds and then bought a smoothie at the mall. I had like two bucks left over. I guess they’re oh so disappointed that I don’t save like Kate does.
I’m so frustrated right now. It’s because of the whole vending machine thing. I hate how nothing is ever in my control. Plus sitting in a car with Adam, Kyla, Rob and Catilin wasn’t that fun. Couple’s galore. I don’t mind it when its Kyla, Adam and I because they aren’t as bad as Rob and Catilin - who are froo-froo dogs lol. They sat in the back with me, making out all the way to Kyla’s house. Yum. I love the sound of spit sloshing around in other peoples mouths.
I’m also really frustrated at my English group. I think I mentioned that we were supposed to re-write a play, and that I got landed in a group with Kendal, Jolena and this Kyle guy. We’re supposed to write the “lost” scene from a play that we read. Kendal wrote the script, and it’s so stupid! It doesn’t make any sense at all! She was high the entire time she wrote it, and it has the stupidest plot line I’ve ever read. I could have done better when I was on pain medication! I’m supposed to be doing props, special effects and coustumes, yet they don’t listen to my ideas! If I say Loretta is to wear a mini skirt, then they are supposed to listen to me but no, Kendal said “this thing doesn’t touch skirts”. Normally, I would agree because she’s overweight and disgusting (she sleeps around with several guys and its just nasty) but Kendal just had to be Loretta and Loretta wears clothes like that in the real play.
Because I was away for a few days, I had no idea what the script was about yet I was supposed to write a props list by the end of yesterdays period. It took Kendal all fucking peirod to type out the script and she wouldn’t let me have a copy so I could see what props we needed. It takes me less then a minute to type up something thats already been written out! This whole group project isn’t going to work out. I can’t stand Kendal and Jolena whines all the time and Kyle is a complete moron. He doesn’t listen to my coustume ideas either, and he always says that I’m putting their grades at jepordy because I had missed like two classes. One was the day when Adam’s car was acting up, and the other was Monday when I went home sick because of the Chicken Caeser wrap I had at lunch. Excuse me but our grade is going to flop because Kendal wrote the script and no one listens to me. Even the teacher was shocked that I didn’t write it, because I’m actually half decent at writing - better then Kendal anyway.
Now I’m going to fail this project because no one in my group will listen to me. Kyle thinks he can tell me what to do, as in yesterday Jolena and I went down to the library to see how they were getting along and Kyle started bitching at me for being down there when “we weren’t supposed to”. Meanwhile, they were doing fuck all which meant Jolena and I were doing fuck all because we didn’t have anything to work with.
Lately I’ve been so stressed out and unhappy. I dropped Com Tech because I know I’ll never be able to catch up, and that earned me the bitching of several people. I’m trying to focus on Anthro and English right now, and there was no way I was going to pass Com Tech this term.
Kyla’s down in the dumps because Michelle, Crystal and I have been missing large chunks of school. Michelle and Crystal have a halfday and full day of co-op, so we rarely see Michelle and never see Crystal, and I had that arm surgery and another one coming up. I really wish I didn’t have too, I’m going to miss out on so much. Like prom, afterwards they’re going camping and it sounds like so much fun and I can’t even go. Crystal and Kyla say it sucks because I’m the only one missing.
Well it was nice to vent.

Jess,
Go to your Blogger dashboard, choose the “Settings” tab, then the “Site Feed” sub-category.
Click on the dropdown box where it says “Publish Site Feed” and change the value to “Yes.”
Then click “Save Settings” and republish your blog so I can put your site in my feed reader.
Cristie,
A toonie is a coin worth 2 dollars, Canadian.
Why is it called a “toonie?”
Well, the 1 dollar (Canadian) coin is called a “loonie” (because there’s a picture of a loon on it).
I think you can figure it out from there.
