iHate mp3 players.
Why?
They are like men. (The men I have come in contact with anyways). They are so wonderful when you first 'meet' them. Everything is going lovely and wonderful and you spend all your time together. Then something happens. The something varies, but it always destroys the relationship. You're not sure if it's you, because they won't tell you, and you can't think of anything you did out of the ordinary that might have caused the problem, so it must be them right? In my mp3 player's case, 'he' decided to start "refreshing database" every time I charged him. That was fine with me, until I realized that some of my mp3s became 'bad tracks'. There wasn't even a pattern of which ones were bad and which ones weren't. Old, new, downloaded, ripped etc. As if that weren't irritating enough, today when I pulled him off the charger, he went black. No the screen didn't turn off, it just turned black. and the blue light ring that's used to navigate through lists is still on too. I had to let the battery die and put it back on the charger when I got home. Well as soon as it had enough juice to turn itself on, it started the refreshing database process again, AND blacked out AGAIN! I will not last more than a month without and mp3 player...it sounds silly but I've become dependent on it, I used it for at last 5 hours a day..it's an extra limb. I don't know why these things won't stick around with me for longer than oh...8 months, but it really is an expensive problem.
Mp3 player #1-lasted 1 yr. Nothing wrong with it, just didn't hold enough and was outdated.
Mp3 player #2-lasted only 11 months. Was stolen from me. However it was rather small (in terms of memory).
Mp3 player #3-this one, lasted only 8 months! It was just fine! Until now. And I think it's dead forever.
I might look into apples. But they're so expensive.. and then I have to use iTunes. Eugh. Maybe I'll find something extremely durable....I don't think I have dropped this one since the sumer though....it has a scar, but I doubt the effects would take 5 months to present themselves.
Errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
Well at least I have my exam schedule and its pretty cramped but it will be over quickly.
Time foooo foooooood.

Poem Extended.
(A continuation found in the depths of a journal)
Barely morning,
Late October.
You wouldn't believe,
We were sober.
It's not a game,
but we broke the rules.
We're not the same,
but we're both fools.
It's not a contest,
but we're being judged.
So I'll get dressed,
but my silhouette's still smudged.
It's not a joke,
but you'll still laugh.
I wonder if anything broke,
because I feel cut in half.
There is no mystery
but I want a solution.
We have a history,
but there's no revolution.
Rules broken
in a game that doesn't exist
but the jury's spoken,
and the judge looks pissed.
He broke us in two
but we already were.
If only I knew,
but the line was a blur.
There's nothing to solve,
so we don't need to change.
I just wish this would evolve,
into something less strange.
Love always,
Janelle
When I read it in my head, I loved it. When I typed it here I saw a mess.

Today...
Today I woke up in a very unexplainably bad mood..
but, I had a good sanwhich for lunch and ate Almond M&Ms with Michele.....
and then
I went poster shopping.
I knew I didn't have much time
but
there was an autographed Beatles poster
and I had to get it..right then
what if it were gone tomorrow?
I would have cried.
End of story
I hope since there is a lot of snow/ice outside and freezing rain/10-15 cm of snow are imminent tonight, there will be a snow day tomorrow =)

Balanced.
Janelle is currently pleased with:
--beef noodle soup!
--her American Eagle bra. It's probably the comfiest.. ever..who woulda thought?
--her weekend. Good times and got lots of work done too
--leaving work in the middle of a dinner rush :)
Janelle is currently displeased with:
--midterms!!
--the squeaky noise her work shoes are making because she broke the heel air bubble things...
--her lack of ability in French. Language is just not her thing.
--that song about lipgloss.. I might have liked it if I were 11 and lived in the ghetto.
Annnnd Tim Horton's story of the day:
As I was making my dinner before I left, some guy comes up to the side of the counter I was on and tells me "Uhh I orded a chicken club and you gave me a breakfast sandwich". I told him that was not possible since we stop serving breakfast at noon and it was after 6:30 pm. He looked pissed and said "well that's what you gave me" (rolling his eyes at me.. like I purposely gave him a fucked up sandwich). I took a look at it and guess what I found, a chicken club (Woowww big surprise). I told him that he got exactly what he ordered..and he asked "Well why is there egg and bacon on it?" (I assume he though the chicken looked like egg? It does look gross..but it doesn't smell like egg at all and if you've ever seen egg before, you'd probably know that chicken does not equal egg). I told him what he thought was the egg was in fact chicken and bacon came on the sandwich. I even showed him the picture with the fucking bacon sticking out of it on our menu. Well apparently he doesn't eat bacon, so he got a new bacon free sandwich. Friggen people.

What to do on a snow day?
Go bra shopping of course!
Bra shopping
=confusing
=time consuming
=hell.
I decided it would be a nice break from reading and since I'd finished more work than I had planned, I headed off to the mall.
I am glad its over.
I am glad it's pretty outside.
Love always,
Janelle

iJudge
I judge how fast my week is going by how soon it feels that I can check postsecret.
I judge when I need to do laundry by how many 'good' pairs of socks I have left.
I judge whether or not I should shower in the morning based on how frizzy my hair is. (On the days I sleep in too much..I really do shower most every morning).
I judge when I need to do dishes based on how many clean cups I have left.
I judge when I need to clean my room by how many tiles of the linoleum I can see.
Oh my god, it's February. Maybe one day I'll get used to feeling so behind all the time.
Love always,
Janelle
