<joel>  ouf - hm, picking up from last night, I was talking with Mariel, and she asked me if Alicia really said that she was free for tonight. I told her yes, and she freaked. she said something about her... emm... party, and that Alicia was supposed to come. and she said she was free for tonight. so Alicia's in a lot of doo doo, but Mariel said she doesn't care anymore and that Alicia can go with me... but I don't know what to do... I mean, I really care and have respect for Mariel's feelings, but who wouldn't want to go to the movies, as well??? ...oh well. anywho, then I called Christie, had a little chat, then called Mariel even apart from her warning me not to - the poor girl sounded distraught. don't blame her. then I sat down and watched Big Momma's House... "What she need Crisco for!" lmao!!!!!!!! that was a golden moment (inside - well, my own little personal joke there.) lol! then this morning, one wicked run! dayam!
anywho, s'all from me - 'til later!

Querky,
I'm the skatman!!!

<joel>  holà! ¿Cómo usted es todo? in other words, 'hey, s'up?' it's already been a roller coaster night and it's 7:30. I'm a loser! beurk... (the worst word ever invented.) anyways, hm, what's happened. well, I last updated on Thursday morning? let's go from there. Thursday was a day... not much happened... at all... lol! but then was theater practice, and it was fun! (as always) although my first scene (with none other then Robie,) is HARD! well, it's not really that hard but to do it over and over and over again is. Danielle is good at her role, though, at least. :D anyways, then I came home, did some homework (Tech project - I was the only one in the class who did it! class off! whoo!) lol and then went to watching Survivor. I'm rooting for Christy, although she is being kind of mellodramatic. today was pretty normal, to... I got my verb test back! better then I'd expected, 16/25! yayyy... yeah. so anyways, then was theater again, with Mirage ignoring me... hurrah... but it was fun. then I came home, had some stir fry, and then got on MSN. and I was talking badly about Alicia and got scalded by Mariel... I got all depressed and, I just broke down because I know that Mirage is very mad at me, and Amanda and I maybe aren't on the best terms, it's hard to try to please everyone, it really is. ugh. so anyways, I'm just staying home as a result of this, but guess what I'm doing tommorrow night! (it's going to make my weekend,) I'm going to see 'The Life of David Gale' with Alicia!!! I'm ever-so-happy, no more social deprivation! well, I'm anything but a social reject, I'm just ULTRA-BUSY!!! (whoosh!!!! ah, there goes Joel again. silly Joel, relaxation and normality is for kids!) lol... anyways, that's all I feel like typing for now!

Charismatic,
I'm a radish!

<joel>  oh ma! (ghetto for 'oh my'.) what's new, eeeverybody? I'm a little bit too positive today, but it's only like... 3 degrees outside! Celcius!!! THAT'S WARM COMPARED TO A -42 WINDCHILL!!! even if I do have a crummy cold... which sucks. anywho, recapping from Tuesday: that day I got my Physique test back... 63.5%... (ouch). then I had french, and what happened was hilarious! ok, well we had the verb 'battre' (to beat,) and as I was writing my sentences, I mistook 'battre' for 'bâtir.' (to build.) so there I was with phrases like (translated) "I beat chairs and tables, too.", or "We will beat buildings." and stuff. then I realised it. in a panic, I wrote whatever came to mind. I looked over my sentences and realised that I came off as a very, very sick person because I had phrases like "I beat on old women and animals," "We would have beat the babies," and some other lovely sentences. watch me get a 0%. lol! then we were looking over these texts that everyone in the class wrote, they're called "New Litteraries" (I think...) anyways, then we divided into groups, and took 4 of them for every group. each copy had no name on it. then everyone took a turn reading the texts. the people in the group then voted which was the best. so then monsieur went around, picking up the favorite copies, and putting them in special piles. I didn't know what happened to my copy, but after class I looked in the 'favorites pile' and my text was there!!! WHOO!!!! (I'm ever-so-proud!) anyways, so then it was Leader Corps, and Adrienne gave us a large speech on how we must always be serious about Leader Corps, and we shouldn't just go there because their parents make them or because they're there for a socially good time, which some people in there do. then Wednesday... hmm, normal, I guess. I went to Ju-Jutsu last night, and did some """fun-filled""" techniques. ***COUGH.*** I just didn't like the positions they required, it felt icky and wrong inside! (I had to do them with a guy.) and yes, it is fun to hurt someone with minimal effort, but it's painful to have someone practice on you. ok doke... then this morning, I dropped Ben off at his really cute daycare, with all the cute kids saying cute things and just very cute! (did I mention they were cute?) lol, and future aspects - hum dee dum, me gots theater tonight... I always enjoy that, and tommorrow night it's very likely that I'm going to see 'About Schmidt' with my pal Alicia! (did you know that 'Alicia' is latin for Alice? go figure! oh, and my name originates from the Hebrew name 'Yoel,' meaning 'Witness of God'.) well, that's all my fingers can tolerate... until next time!!!

Tra la la,
Happy pappy.

<joel>  ha ha... blarf. the last little while has been a no-no. well, I'll get to that after I start describing from... Sunday morning! well, about church, I hate it when Thomas has a hockey practice (therefore we have to leave right after communion like CHEAP asses!) then, as we were approaching Lancaster Arena on that sunny morning, there seemed to be a teeny, tiny IMMENSE TRANSPORT TRUCK BLOCKING THE ROAD!!! it had apparantly tried to get out of the Arena's "driveway", (which, facing the building, is in the shape of a horseshoe) but got stuck on some odd piles of snow on the way out. this made it lean to the side dangerously, and people had to actually go through the Arena's parking lot in order to pass. the driver of the truck looked as if he was about to cry... poor dude... anyways, so then I went out to sell more chocolate bars, which I completed successfully!!! WHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I passed the money in yesterday, go me. then it was time for Interaction, which was as usual, uplifting and very fun. we played a little game called 'Boom Chika,' where Kate would say something like 'I said a boom chika boom' or 'Oh yeah', and we had to say it in a certain tone of voice, like the Queen or a preacher. lol!, it was great. then we had to do a major historical event with a false obstacle, also worked in with a children's game. Sarah, Ryan, Kaitlyn, Adrienne and I did the discovery of fire, with the obstacle of Sarah thinking it was her personal birthday candle, but at the discovery of fire, we played 'Ring Around the Rosie,' enchantingly sung with various grunting sounds (go cavemen!) after this, I came home, did some homework, and went to bed. yesterday I did my Physique test, that wasn't too bad, I think I did allright (even if my parents think it's today... heh... heh...) and then the day was pretty blah... apart from the fact that I had to tell Suzie something, and it was hard to do and the person in question whom was discussed over is now quite angry with me. vat the fack? (sorry, Jacques - it's a good quote.) I hope I can get a hold of those craaazy hospital nutrition people for my Job Shadowing for next monday! ...allright, well I hope this entry is long enough for ya'll, my adoring public!

Sunday, February 16

<joel>  ohhhh my! well, to start of with, nothing more about the stuff between Amanda & I, (and many apologies to her) that's now... hm, 'behind closed doors' would be the right term. so yeah... I'm going over yesterday in play-by-play detail! whoo! allright, well yesterday afternoon my mom comes home with some tasty Subway, and I take the chicken teryaki. what I DID NOT know was that the fa-reakin' CAR for an hour-and-a-half! oh God... I thought it was just me, but the bread was all soggy - barf! so there I am, wondering why I feel like I'm about to toss my cookies, and my mom says naively, "Hmm... Maybe because it was sitting in the car for an hour and a half or so! ...But you never know." oh my God... thank you, Captain Obvious! geez... anyways, then I had to go out in the freezing cold and desperately sell chocolate bars, (as if my life depended on it) to sell for Caraquet. (oh fun fun fun!) I only sold 8 out of my whole neighbourhood... damn cheap neighbours! ugh - so then I come home and buy myself some chocolate (omilord, so good!) and watched an Olsen Twin movie... on YTV... someone hurt me. anyways, so then I basically did nothing for the rest of the day, blah blah blah - I stayed up late watching 'The Hamptons,' I fancy that show now. that's all from me!

Once upon a time,
...and they all lived happily ever after.


</joel> <!--22:15-->

<joel>  ooch. whadda run. I didn't get a side-stitch this time around, which is a good thing. the bad thing? it's only minus-a-billion outside!!! ugh... so anyways, last night - it's all a story. I'd keep confidentiality, but this is my Blog and I'm too pissed off. anyways, as you may or may not know, Amanda & I have been kind of fighting lately, due to a little accidental episode with a quiz I sent... but I won't go into that. anywho, so then we were talking on MSN last night and she sounded kind of... I don't know, cold. so I asked her, on a scale from 1-10, how mad are you at me? and she was really upset at this for some reason, and said to me that I call too much. (in the summer we were closer, but things have changed.) so I told her... all she had to do was to tell me that. we talked about it for a little while heatedly, and she said that she had something else to say. I pried it out of her, and she admitted that she thought I was lying about my sexual orientation. I found this absolutely shocking, and explained to her that yes, in elementary school I was harassed for being "gay" and I'm scared that someday that the gay fairy is going to pop up, sprinkle gay dust on me and change me - because that's really scary. but the thing is, I've always liked girls, but it's still a psychological issue because of the terrible harassment in elementary school. it's complicated, but I explained this to her. she said she wanted to talk about this more, said she had to run some errands, and never came back online. so yeah, and I thought about it all night. ...I guess I'm just shocked that such a close friend could think this, and I wondered how many others did. I know I shouldn't even care, but it's still a traumatising issue for me (because of elementary school.) now, I know I'm definately not macho, I'm into the arts, and a lot of my friends are girls, but many feminine guys (so shameful to admit, but yes, like me) aren't really gay. but some football players are. you see what I mean? as my mom always said, "One's sexual orientation does not depend on their personality... It depends on their sexual orientation." and even if I was gay, I wouldn't be scared of it. I don't care about a person's orientation, I care about the personality... now if only the rest of the world was like that.

Straight and happy with it,
Joely Poley, the skiing advertiser.
