Possibly the only thing harder than having a bi-polar boyfriend is having a bi-polar ex-boyfriend.

I wish this on no person. It is my deepest hope that in no point in time, will any of you, or anyone you love, and even those you hate, ever have to say any form of the phrase "_________ attempted suicide today."
Please, positive thoughts/energy in any form, prayer, karma, vibes, would be most welcome. Names don't need to be said, the powers that be (whatever they may be) will know.

I don't know that I have ever felt so played. I used to think that my generally optimistic outlook on life was something to be proud of. Especially because I thought that I was able to do so while keeping a grasp of reality. I Hate it. I'm just naive and dumb.
I was so fooled. So so fooled. I am a fool. I feel so many emotions that I don't want to feel because they're not healthy and they do me no good....eg anger, jealousy, a maliciousness that reminds me of my mother and scares me. So much I would like to just pretend that it's okay, but I don't know that I'll be able to. For the second time in my life.... I've put a great deal of trust in someone that I loved (yes, love, the double edged sword of it all, makes it all the better for a classic drama) and have had that completely shattered. At one point in time I thought I was through that. I thought I wasn't going to let people into my life who could do that to me. How silly was I?
I don't even know where to begin to try to make it work. Logistically I don't see how it can. Too many founding building blocks have crumbled and in turn have brought down cascades of tiny things that no one even knew mattered. Stupid girl.
Ouch.

k. I want to go back to being happily single now please. Nope. Done with dating. Done with flirting with purpose. I'd like to be obliviously flirting with someone and not have to worry about reprecussions or the like. So many awkward datey things. blegh. how many this week you ask me?....ummm 5....as of tomorrow I'll be adding a sixth. Blegh. it takes energy and also I just don't think I'm looking for anyone to fill that category...I didn't even like kissing the most recent one (the only one I've kissed...not THAT big of a ho-bag). NO MORE. DRAMA. PLEASE. Blegh. Okay...so I don't have the engery to explain more...I'm mainly online waiting for my nails to dry before I go to bed. Vomit. Friggin formals. Friggin dating. Can I just go back?

This is kinda rough. Can't sleep. I would have been fine today. I'm actually pretty okay at keeping my caffeine intake at work to acceptable levels...but then someone didn't get their drink.....they didn't get their quad shot twelve ounce two pump hazelnut soy latte. Why did they order my drink...have me make it...and then not get it? Someone is out to get me.
I'm restless. Not just now with the buzz, but with my life. I want to do more with it. I want more direction. Here's the hard part though, I think that I'm past the stage where anyone else can give or tell me the direction to take....even if someone would I don't believe it would be valid in my eyes or that I would even follow it. I'm worried that I have to decide it for myself. That is so so scary for me. What if I mess up? I'm used to being able to allow the blame to fall back on someone else...not that I have let it...I've usually just taken responsibility, but that was because I had the option.
I'm 20. I have been for over 2 months. That is scary. I know it doesn't seem much, but really. 2 decades. MORE than 2 decades...and I've done nothing actually worthwhile. I can see very little I can do that would ever be considered worthwhile.
I wish I could be like all the other insomniacs and just watch TV and buy workout equipment for 20 bucks. Nope. Alas.

Reading has completely ruined my life! I've finally figured it out. By the the sixth or fourth grade I had read Jane Eyre, Sense and Sensibility, and Pride and Prejudice.
I am 100% convinced that I need a Mr.Darcy in my life. Every so often I like to pretend that I like the century I live in...but it's a lie. I would rather live in those times...I realized this when given the option between Bridget Jones' Diary and the TBS's production of Emma...I chose the classic. Tear.
Now I basically just want to run an add in a paper that goes along these lines:
"An Elizabeth Bennett seeks one Mr. Darcy to roam Derbyshire (and/or Seattle). Bingleys and Wickhams need not apply."
K...so I probably wouldn't do that in all seriousness, but it'd be fun to see if I got any responses. Yeah. Basically I'm a little bit too bored/ lonely for my own good at the moment.

Here are the rules:
1. Leave me a comment saying, "Interview me." 2. I respond by asking you five personal questions so I can get to know you better. If I already know you well, expect the questions may be a little more intimate! 3. You will update your LJ with the answers to the questions. 4. You will include this explanation and an offer to interview someone else in the post. 5. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions
Questions asked of me by Elliot:
1-We're obnoxious. Like, hella. Why do people like us? 2-Favorite word in any language? 3-Most delicious thing in the world? 4-Why does your cat like to put his face on the stove burner? 5-What's the most money you would spend on something for yourself?
Answers:
1) Well Elliot. Yes, we are totally obnoxious, however, we make fun of ourselves and in the fact that we already know we're obnoxious, people feel free to laugh at/with us because they don't have to feel awkward about hating us because we're so totally annoying...AND they all secretly wish they could be us. Basically we're entertaining and a novelty, because most siblings aren't as crazy as we are. One's usually 'normal'. Not in our case. Also, our blatent obnoxiousness allows us to have fun where ever we go, adding an aspect of novelty to our shannagins that almost everyone enjoys (except mom)
2) Well, pineapple yogurt in french is anana yaourt (ya-oot) which is just straight up fun to say.... we will work in spanish is trabajabamos, again, a kick in the pants.....and I'm not sure what my favorite in english is...it changes. Used to be guffaw, and then 'crisp'...there are a lot of words
3) Most delicious thing? sooo many. Spicy tuna roll? lamb? toasted marshmallow wrapped in american cheese (don't knock it until you try it)....I think my vote may be on Jordan Almonds. I don't know why, but they just rock my world. That and sweet potatos...or any of thanksgiving dinner (minus the turkey)...plus yorkshire pudding.
4) My cat is just a big ol' bowl of retarded. Obviously.
5) Clarifying question...when we're talking about money I'd spend on myself does that include say....rent? Because if so, then buttloads. At LEAST 445 a month. VOMIT. But in all reality, probably $200. I recently spent about $180 on ballet tickets, and I spend that much on dance classes....It really depends on what it's for. Yipes

Dear HotWire, I LOVE YOU SOOOO MUCH. Along with StudentUniverse.com. You two sites are the most fantastic websites for travelling. Hey...a round trip ticket to florida? less than a month in advance? Oh hey...before I knew about you those tickets were about $600. Suck. Oh but now.....found a flight (doesn't work with my times...but its' still there, for $197) JAW DROPS. LOVE. You make flying lots easier. I highly recommend that everyone look at these sites before booking travel. Heart! Much love, Hillary
Dear house+1 roommate, I HATE YOU BOTH! REALLY? god. both are so annoying and just sucky and make me want to move. both are smelly and pretending to be things that they aren't. Both make me sick. AHHHHH SMARMY FRICK. sooo antsy. i may just explode. I need out of this frickin house! I may go to Bellingham this weekend just to get away from you both! RAGE. I honestly wish that I could just leave both of you forever! Go fuck off, Hillary
Dear Law & Order, You are a fickle fickle friend. Don't get me wrong. I enjoy your programme immensely, but it seems to me that whenever I really really need to go to bed and get some sleep, you'll 'magically' have a fantastic marathon that I can't take my eyes off of. God. I need Spring Break so badly, but I may not actually get to leave my house...which may in fact kill me. WAH! What do do with you? Hillary

Fuckin' V-day. Virgin day. Verylameassday. Boo. Actually I'm pretty fine, it's always been a kinda iffy holiday seeing as my mother's birthday...and it doesn't really count as one. but still...awkward. Meh. So i'd like to quickly recap my past few valentines days...Go!
2007: So far I've been called by a) my ex-boyfriend...who doesn't celebrate such holidays....so basically that's a boo. b) creepy guy from target backroom who has been calling and texting me and has yet to figure out that I'm REALLY not interested despite the fact that each text gets the response "all your base are us" only and that whenever he calls I either don't pick up, or if I do pick up, sing spice girls with whichever friend is nearest and then give them the phone to talk to him in some sort of accent and hang up. Also, am still being ignored by guy that I've kinda been seeing. Not so much fun. I get it though...he doesn't want to be pressured into having a V-day, or having the DTR (Defining the Relationship Talk). But I don't either. So it just means he's being silly and doesn't even know it. BLEGH.
2006: Had a boyfriend of 2 days...he already had plans with a good friend of his who didn't have a sig. other, so I was sparred the awkwardness of V-day date, or so I thought, he friggin surprised me and took me out to strangely silent dinner. But I did get to help my roommate get all sexified for her boyfriend and then got locked out of my room for the night. woo
2005: Not much happened, wrote on the boy's car...then later got into a fight with the boy....not ideal, but it was okay
2004: this is a good one....went to sunday brunch with the fam, got back and discovered a gift from Neb of a handmade vase, flowers, cheesecake, and cookies. Happy camper. Then, about an hour later...broke up with current boyfriendish thing...over the phone (yes I know...I'm a horrible person and am going to hell, i didn't know he had baked me a cake...but it wasn't working anyway) and then took father to hospital because the cookies that Neb made had peanut butter in them, we didn't know this and he also didn't know that the father was allergic to peanuts. Woo hoo.
K. that's a good enough trip down memory lane. It works out. I don't hate this holiday, I just think it's silly. I can only pretend to be satisfied by my romance novel so much. :) tee hee. Oh well.
Side note: I think everyone should now refer to my fantastical brother as Man-princess and/or M.P. for short. That's all.

So...those of you who read my brother's LJ know so far that my family is snowed in in Denver and won't be leaving until the 26th. I ....fortunatly? had a flight at the butt crack of the morning and left denver at 6 and was one of the only flights to leave. So I am in Seattle. My original plan was to go home after I got off of work at 3:30pm on Christmas eve, and have christmas with my family and be back in Seattle to go to work by 3:15 on the 26th. I personally was really bummed out by this and thought this plan sucked.
However, now that I have no family to be with on Christmas I realize how much more my current predicament sucks. So yeah. I would ideally love to go to Spokane and have Christmas with one of my friend's families, but I have no way to do so and it's just not realistic. I may end up going to Edmonds with my friend from Oregon, or going to Sequim to spend it with friends of the family, but neither sounds fun at all. I would almost just rather hang out by myself and go out to dinner or something. This sucks lots.
It makes me sad. Oh well. Off to work.

Lets pretend we don't exist....Lets pretend we're in Antartica!
Real life is far less fun than dreamworld (read as Eugene)...I have lots of stuff that needs to be done but I'm just too tired. Blegh. I'm actually really just looking forward to Thanksgiving now. Friends, family, home, FOOD....not so much the Turkey Trot....fuckin running, but since it's part of Thanksgiving I'll do it. Alas. ***Hey Elliot, want to color in the Turkey outline again...it'll be way better this year I promise....we're SSSSSOOOOOO good at crafts!***
K. Going to work. I guess this post is just me missing UO and the people there but not wanting to complain about it actually to them. I LOVE YOU ALL.
I also love you even if you're not from UO...and even more so because you knew me before them. Emo mono angst! ahhh
nap.

K. I'm stressed and all tired and shit...but I love my boy. He doesn't even read my LJ, but I don't like that I badmouthed him even a little bit. He's my fave, and so fantastic to me. We're good for eachother. I really like that, and I'm soooo excited to see him. I think I'm just sick of being sick and am worried about how my sickiness will affect my trip and who I get to see and visit and I really don't want it to because I love all of my friends in Eugene and it's still a home to me and I'm a lonely sadface (but less so than before). K...that was all.

Know what's just downright mean? Giving a life long insomniac mono. That's just rude. I'm tired all the time. I never want to eat...and yet....I still get up go to class...try to get everything done so I could if possible go to bed by six....and what happens? I'm stuck awake and unable to sleep, but still tired as all heck at 2 in the morning. God....this one isn't that funny. I'm completely convinced that I'm never going to get better, and will continue to fall behind in schoolwork, schedule meetings outside class with teachers once I think I'm getting better, arrange for make-up work to be done...and then become more ill than ever and continue the vicious cycle. FUCK OFF MONO.
In other news, despite my illness, I'm heading down to Eugene tomorrow (today). That's exciting. Except...for the problem that mostly all my friends currently are done with midterms and just would like to go out party and relax. Alas...should Hillary "party" her liver and spleen may very well explode...and also, Hillary gets headaches currently if she tries to stay active past 8 in the evening. Boo. And also boo to the 3 dumb boys who when I went down to Eugene earlier this year decided they loved me for reasons beyond my comprehension. 1 boy, who I lusted after all year has a gf now...and that's good, except I'm slightly jealous and he doesn't really talk to me much, but he and I were friends when he had a girlfriend before and I lusted after him but things were cool, so I hope I'll be able to talk to him because he is my fave. 1 boy just smokes pot now and isn't really all that cool, but calls me on nights to tell me that in his induced state of mind, all that makes sense to him is that he and I should get married. And he's kinda serious...and gets mad at me if I don't talk to him online...when he and I have nothing, and never had anything physical, just a pretty basic preliminary friendship sort of deal. And then there's boy. We shall call him boyfriend...because that's what he is. I wish I could just date someone in the same state as me and be happy. But so far my fate has been otherwise directed twice. It scares me a lot. And I like him a lot, but I want to see other friends too while I visit, and he gets kinda over protective (partially due to my own fault of communicating to other boys/girls/people/things completely and 100% in a flirtatious manner) alas. And I just want things to be like they were in the dorms...but they won't be. And I have no friends here....aside from the given 6 that I knew were here when I came and my 1 friend I have made.
I'm stressed and tired. And just want to go to bed. I don't have a job. Am not currently in the position to get one, seeing as I'm completely exhausted after being awake for 6 consistent hours in a day. I need one. I just really would like to go home and have my mom cook for me and have my friends, and my cat cudddle me, and hang out with my brother and be silly and watch scary childhood movies that weren't supposed to be scary but scarred us nonetheless. WAAAA.
BLEGH. I want to be 15 or something like that again. Or be married. Just not where I am right now. This is hard.

K. Hillary is very busy this week. Like. Lots. Mainly she's busy so she won't have to do anything this weekend when lover visits, but so I'm busy nonetheless. I haven't been sleeping much for the past few days...that's less than the normal scarce amounts of sleep I get. So I'm very tired. I wake up this morning...my alarm clock didn't want to go off, so I"m running late. I organize myself and present a project for my 8 am class, go to french and make it through classes with the unexplained urge to cry (just cause I'm tired) and come home around 10:40.
I am torn between the need to sleep and the need to eat. I choose to eat. (that was the wrong choice). I like hash browns. I think I'll make them. I turn on the stove, put the pan on it...with some oil so they'll be nice and crispy and delicious. I go to my room, to check email while i wait for it to heat up...it's been MAYBE 2 minutes. I smell smoke. Shit. I dismantle the nearest fire alarm, because they go off if our toast is too crispy, and go into the kitchen. The kitchen is smokey and gross and oh hark...there's my pan and oil...smoking it up and being gross and bitchy making my day all the better. I'm just cursing to myself cause it sucks and turn off the stove....look at the bitchy smoking oil and say "fuck it. You smell. You're not on fire...I'm just going to wash you out in the sink". (you're not supposed to put water on grease fires because all it does is spread it out and make it HUGE). So I take the pan over to the sink turn the water on, and put the pan underneath the running water.
About ten kajillionths of a millisecond before the pan reaches the water....the oil...which has been smoking and sloshing in the pan as i walk to the sink...decides that it's been moved enough and exposed to enough air that it can and would like to catch on fire. So it does. And so at that second that it does, I have put running water in it..... .... .... KAFOOSH
Yeah. I had a kitchen flambe. The fire exploded from the pan, climbed up our kitchen cabinets, proceded to engulf half of the ceiling ....and then went out. I don't even know why, but I'm so thankful.
So yeah. So now I'm airing out the house all the windows are open and fans are on...scrubbing the kitchen cabinets and the ceiling to get the scorch marks off (not happening) and stressing out...because now added to my list I get to buy sandpaper and paint and repaint said cabinets and ceiling within the next two days because our land lady is coming over to talk with us about the fact that three days ago our house decided to convert itself into a pool and the repairmen have come twice and done nothing. I'm broke. Stressed, and this is just another thing on my list that stresses me out and impeades the work that i need to get done so I can enjoy my fantastic boy coming over without needing to write a paper or do 60 pages of french workbook.
For some reason I am still calm and not yet crying....have yet to break down to that...it's magic. I don't even know why. But...I'm figuring all this out...money, time, and liklihood of getting everything done...and figuring out that I'm going to need to put sleep higher up as a priority to get any of this done....my housemate is so kind enough to inform me that he's shared my near death experience with his colleagues and they think it's funny. i'm not pleased by this, but whatever...I'm sure I would think it's cooler and more fascinating if it weren't ocming from my budget or my stressed and maxed out time schedule....but then informs me that it's okay because.."at least you look pretty today".
When someone has nearly died, but it still calm and being responsible, and you know they're stressed out...don't tell them that they look pretty. It helps nothing and they will be filled with a dire need to punch you. It's doesn't serve any purpose, and right now that's all I have time for. YARGH. I'm a mix of rage/humor/sorrow/exhaustion right now....so I needed to at least vent a little bit so I can function and get stuff done. Oh my god. This is hard.
