Hi, there. [:
I was thinking about a comment someone left a while back, asking if I was still around. Even though it's been a few years since I last expressed how I felt on the subject, I still feel like (years later) that internet friends are every bit as real and meaningful as the friends you meet in person. They become real through the pieces of them - stories, pictures, music they say they're listening to - that they're willing to share. The idea is extremely clear and well displayed through websites like LJ. Sharing you is kind of the entire idea, you know?
So I did. I shared everything that happened with me for years, and some really exceptional people shared back.
I appreciate the people who were there watching when I was here writing.
For anyone who's still curious, I'm a college sophomore now (well, on Monday). I live in the Charlotte-metro area now and go to UNC Charlotte. I'm still going to be a teacher. I turn 21 in December. I'm a video game nerd now, and play lots of WoW. I'm making almost exclusively As and Bs anyway, for the first time since I was fourteen or fifteen. I don't believe in the church anymore, but I still believe in the good in people. I think I always will.
I don't think I could go back to writing on LiveJournal, and certainly not on this one anymore, though. That is a part of my life that, temporarily at least, is over. I still exist on AIM (lvl37bureaucrat), Myspace, email (yourdystopiandreamgirl@gmail.com), and on World of Warcraft (Blackhand server, Alliance, main: Aelanna). I'd be more than welcoming to any of my old friends here who still cared to say hello.
Otherwise, I hope you're all happy and well. Take care.
-anni

My days are getting longer.
I'm rarely here anymore, so I always feel like I have so much to say.
Summary good for you? It's good for me, too.
[x] playing Betty in Harvey
[x] Doug's leaving work soon, I think. Shit hit the fan when Vanessa heard he gave me the silent treatment and denies me breaks altogether. Also, when we all learned Andrea is only allowed breaks if she brings him back food at all. The silent treatment pissed me off more than not getting a break on the 13th, because he was mad I wanted one. How long did he get to chill? Three hours. He lied to Rachael about my being entitled to one, and if it wasn't so busy, I would have found our handbook to prove it. We've all read it. I don't think he knows it.
[x] A filling fell out of my "bad tooth" today. The one where both my filling and root canal failed. So there was a giant hole for a while that I picked at because it bothered me, and the filling is gone now. It's a half circle. And sharp. It's being removed tomorrow. My preference. I just want it out of my mouth. If I bend my tongue, I can touch my gum on the inside of that tooth with it. It's horrific.
[x] Valentine's Day weekend (after and not before) was wonderful. I wore my watch today and I'm delighted with my Sims 2 Expansion. I got too much candy anyway from other people.
[x] I can't stand The Editors.
He said something while I was over. Very early in the morning - it was still dark - I woke and so did he. He asked me why the nights lasted forever when I was there? It was like Christmas Eve, and spending the day with me was like Christmas. It was such a warm statement. Poor boy is sick. Very sick. And I'm delighted he's getting into jpop.

I'm a bad LJ friend. I don't even update that often. But I got my last notice from a college this morning, and without further ado:
UNC rejected me.
That is all.

I am doing a story on my friend at school who was featured in Advocate, whose website can be found here, for his work to the GLBT cause. I was disgusted when I tried to go to the page myself, it wouldn't let me. GLBT interest sites are blocked.
I was so unhappy. So fucking unhappy with that. How ridiculous is that?

I am having such an off day. Fowler's - the cafe/market I used to go to every morning, or at least as often as I could manage since the ninth grade - closed officially today. Notices had been placed up since November 6, promising a reopening after renovations were made. Today was the day they were supposed to open.
I'm really, really saddened. Practically, all it should mean is that I get up a little earlier to go to Bean Traders instead, off Ninth Street. But it's not the same. It just isn't.
Is anyone else sad?

I will be gone from tonight until Friday night. I am dog sitting for someone, and spending the night at that house on these nights. I'll probably be back here Sunday, since the holiday shopping season will have offically begun. ]]]]: And that means uber work hours. x]
Until then!

Maes and I have conversations sometimes. It's so bizarre. She'll meow at me from the next room, I'll meow back. And back and forth for a long time. She's the greatest.
Except for waking me up at five to jump on my face. THAT never fails to majorly suck.

This meme reminded me of a fact you may not know: Music friends send me, I collect them. I hoard and hide away music my friends make and care enough to send to me. I treasure them. It delights me to hear my friends' music.
( If your life was a movie, what would the soundtrack be? )
