08:36 am - Is it Indigestion?

It is very early in the morning, but soon, getting up this early will be the norm. I am up this early because I need to find a job and have lots of things to do. It makes me die inside a little--but that feeling could also be indigestion.

In other news, here are a few of my new favorite tunes:
Hot Chip's cover of "Sexual Healing"
Kavinsky in general
"D.A.N.C.E." by Justice
"P***Y" by Brazilian Girls
(I like it when I let friends go WILD with downloading music for me--thanks, guys)

Here are my new favorite items:
My new sunglasses (which aren't that new anymore, I guess)
Laura Mercier's tinted moisturizer with SPF10. A perfect makeup item for summer--check it out, ladiez.

Debate:
Wednesday--to go to NY to help parentals move broseph out of apartment, or NOT?

07:18 pm - Maybe a bird?

Alsooooooo, I sort of always want a new, small tattoo--but always feel a little guilty about the one I have... sort of. I'm not sure. Hmm. Hmmm. Perhaps I will take a walk.

Dear Readers and Friends,

I have returned home from a weekend-tour of the Northeast. I slept in Melissa Leo's house last night. Google her. How? Why? I can't tell you.

I'm feeling: lost and unsettled. Why? The job-hunting process is exactly as tedious as I thought it would be! I DO hope someone recognizes my invaluable talent and skills and decides to take me onto their team and provide me with a both lucrative and also intellectually stimulating experience (in other words, a job).

While I am at home, I am sometimes led to feel neurotic and insecure about MY ENTIRE LIFE. I am trying to take action to change these things. Suggestions?

Back to the job search.

I just cleaned out my purse and its contents made me gasp with excitement--such glamour.

11:31 pm - She Back Whatup

Dear Readers and Friends,

I am back from my European extravaganza. I had a blast, but perhaps bought too much clothing. I caught a cold/some terrible stomach ailment in the airport in Rome and am still getting over it, but I think I'll be okay.

I'm not searching for jobs in NYC anymore, but instead Albany. I'll save money--hopefully enough to buy DOZENS OF DESIGNER HANDNAGS AND OTHER SUCH ITEMS.

Now that I'm home I'm trying to rev up for a super-summer in the Capital Region. Ben, you'd BETTER COME HOME SOON OR ELSE I'M GON' LOSE IT. YOU HEAR ME?

I discovered that I can buy an entire TV series from itunes for only $24.99. My life has been changed forever.

Heading to NoHo tomorrow to see Jaime and find out what's in style, and then we're heading to GB for some QT with the kids in the 'shires.

I might volunteer on a movie set?

Life is okay. I'm tired.

Hugs and kisses,
Jackie

10:53 pm

Suffering in the library.
Full of Red Bull.
Must finish everything by Tuesday.
Getting there I hope. I'd better be.
No pix to post, no music to list.
This is miserable.
This. is. the. bitter. end.
Tuesday night=THE BEST RELIEF I'VE EVER FELT IN ALL OF MY 20 YEARS OF LIFE and 15 years of schooling.

08:11 pm

Dear Readers and Friends,

My, it's been a long time since I've posted--almost a year! Not much has changed, except that I can drive in Mass. now. I still wear my red hoodie far too much and I also need a haircut.

HOWEVER, MOM, I AM GOING TO GRADUATE! Next Saturday! After that, I'm going to England! With Chris! After that I am applying for jobs! In New Pork City! However, the pressure isn't on to do this until fall. I'll be in Albs for a while, and also GB. Vermont, too. Maybe LA for a bit.

I haven't eaten at Taco Bell for at least six months.

I got a tattoo of an anchor one night in New Orleans while I was drunk. Do I regret it? Only sometimes, but mostly I'm still glad to have it.

I wear a headband everyday (this is since yesterday) that says "Martial Arts" on it.

I'm happier now than I was when I last posted, I think.

Tonight for dinner I had a cheeseburger and fries. Chris had something with vegetables. I'm digesting.

Thoughts? Comments? It's been a while. It's good to be back.

Jackie


This is what happens when you google image "Chris Werter"--this isn't him.

I haven't updated since I came home for summer break!

My summer has been good!

I write a lot of things for the newspaper, I go to Great Barrington almost every week and sometimes I go to New York City. Next week I am cruising to Canada with mom, dad and broseph! I will wear my captain's hat the entire time.

I bought some super-short-shorts today--they're shiny and blue and I wore them on the train. It was not the best idea, but it was very hot outside and I thought I might melt to the sidewalk if I continued wearing my jeans.

The end.

Also, everyone should buy season 1 of "That Girl."

Jamie wants me to update my journal... I'm home for the summer and hoping DESPERATELY do adopt a healthier lifestyle, if only for the fact that I don't want to have a heart attack before I'm 22. Home is fine--it's far more comfortable than Hill House. I start my internship on Monday and already have a front page piece coming out in next Sunday's paper, and I'm also starting my column right away. I hope they don't fire me when they see how DISGUSTING i've become since last summer. All I have to do is finish my incomplete and I can say goodbye to last semester, FINALLY. Best semester ever or worst semester ever? Who can say? It's either one or the other.

11:35 pm

I was just reading my entry about Taco Bell. I think that things started to fall apart soon after that night. However, that was an *amazing* night. Sigh. Memories.

09:24 am

Also, Martha has awful taste in music. I just heard him play. WHAT? Ew.

01:26 pm

I'm laying in bed with my work spread all around me (aah, he beauty of a king-sized bed--I can fit everything that I brought with me to school on it and still have room to sleep) and I have a lot to do. I've decided to stop pulling "all-nighters" because they inevitably screw with my brain chemistry (i'm going to try and have more sober days in general). I am determined to finish ALL of my work TODAY and go to sleep at a reasonable hour and wake up at one, too. Enough is enough. Wish me luck.

12:21 am

I want to go to sleep but I'm not tired and it is frustrating. I guess I should get some work done. I think that I should go away this weekend. I thiiiiiiink that these mountains are driving me slightly insane.

10:55 pm - Tacobell.com--You've got what I need.

AIM IM with Childof80s.
10:50 PM
Me: We're GOIN' TO TACO BELL!
Ben: Hehe. Have fun pooky bear...I love you

and then Nathan comes in and asks, "Why don't you guys have normal hobies?" after DECLINING AN INVITATION TO TACO BELL.

Favorite diner in the world:

Don't let the sign fool you. It's falling apart and so are the seats inside <3<3<3<3<3

05:52 pm

This old lady died and my mom got a bunch of her clothing, including an awesome pair of snow boots. I was going to take them for my own, but my grandma took them. Dammit, Gloria.

01:15 am

I almost died tonight. I went to Ali's house and she and her delinquent friends pulled out a bowl and lit up. We all know that I am more responsible than anyone on the planet, so I only took one hit. Ali lives in a field and her driveway is long and hard to back out of. It was also dark and raining tonight. There are also many deer in her neighborhood. I thought about driving home and realized that, sober or not, I would probably hit a lot of trees on her property and some deer, too. However, whether I was sober or not, I would probably hit less of nature if I was sober. I was driving home and THANKFULLY there was another car coming in the opposite direction on this deserted road. It flashed its lights at me and I was like, "Huh?" and then I noticed some deer crossing right in front of me and slammed on the breaks and felt grateful for the SUV. I then proceeded to pop in the Boogie Nights soundtrack which I had just gotten back from Ali--she had it all freakin' semester.

I am glad that I didn't hit the deer for several reasons:
1. I am glad that my car is still in one piece.
2. I am glad that I am alive.
3. I would be so sad if I killed deer.
4. It wouldn't be fun to be injured.
5. I just got the Boogie Nights soundtrack back. I had missed it so much. It's one of my favorite albums. If I hit those deer before I put it into the CD player, I probably wouldn't have been able to listen to it.
6. I look forward to drinking Texas Sized Margaritas on Saturday. A car accident might have stopped
that.

This list is not in order of importance.
