so it looks like ive failed to keep my journal updated :( but i did get to see my girlfriend for a few days (it did cost me 400 dollars and 102 hours on a bus) but it was wicked visit, her sister was getting married, so i used it as an excuse to go see her :D it was a great visit and im sad its over, but i get to see her in 48 days, so it could be worse, anywho, im back to work, and ill hopefully update soon with more info on my little adventure across canada! honey bunches of oats oh and im probably being fired on monday from cendant

so yeah, i think its time i neaten up my LJ habbits, and start getting back into this... not that i ever was hardcore, but i think if i formalize this a bit more and try and use it as some kind of daily reflection... not that my days have that much to reflect upon, but alas, why not? anywho, this is all a vague plan... so if it happens, you all have to congradulate me... and if not, hound me to do it! thats right HOUND... lol, anyways, im gonna get back to work!

ARRGGHHH, im beginning to hate my job, i cant seem to keep as cool and as calm about it as i used to be... i dont know if its just because i feel like i havent seen my friends in forever or if its the fact my life is work... sleep... work... sleep, and occasionaly i may get to go out, but i still feel like my life is wasting away, i dont sleep well, i sleep to long, i wkae up and do nothing, and then go to work.. and even on my days off i sleep most of the day as to not mess my body up, so i miss out yet again... argh... and just so everyone one knows, this could just be a bad day, and whatnot, lol, but yeah, i like the people i work with though, its sjust that i dont get to see them much, or rather talk to them due to teh fact im on the phone my entire shift!! woo im moody today, andwho, id like to dedicate this rant to all the friends im not seeing right now, and of course michelle!.. those of you wondering who she is, shes the ride i forgot to mention, shes a cool gal! ~Josh~ p.s. arrrgggggghh

hello again, it looks liek im in for antoher shift at CENDant... yes CENant... im having some trouble with my dad, hes having health problems and was in the hospital last nght for his leg... dn they discovered his heart was worse off... so i dunno wahts goin on, but we will have to wait and see... but yes, on a lighter note, school is looking more and more manageable as the fall comes, ... and as far as a ride goes (getting to wrok and back) michelle has offered to drive me, but its way out of her way and i feel bad... but i dunno, and now my dad is all mad about it, but oh well, im sure somethign will work out and ill haev transpo, for work, well lets see what else is new, oh im trying to get sexy, and stuff, but its not wroking lol, anywho, peace out yea im gangster... oh wait, more to tell, i saw harry potter 3 twice, its pretty good, the first time i was sceptical, but now ive decided i like it... um thats all folks....

well im now at Cendant.... i had to arrive an hour and a half early due to lack of transportation... but thats okay, at least they have this littl computer sitting in the waiting room.... so my ear was bleeding this morning... kinda scary, and now all the deep sounds echo and kinda make my head hurt... luckily, ive pumped myself full of advil so i can hopefully make it through todays "classroom like" day one of training... oh did i mention it was a holiday... which also kinda sucks, but what can ya do... lets seeeeee what else is knew, OH YEAH, yesterday yesterday my mother, my little brother, his friend and I, all went canoeing on some river... so anywho, we headed out down the river and found a little beach (as expected casue rivers have beaches) and then, we got out (go figure) and explored the shoreline long enough for me to run back to the boat and leave my fellow boatmates stranded on the shore... so this lead to them jumping in teh water (and by them i mean the two children) and running towards me (luckily to their advantage teh water was only about 3 feet deep....) but yes, so they caught me and such, and then we headed home... on the way home though we decided that since jon's friend was already wet... we could easily put him back in the water....2 minutes later we had attached him to teh tow rope... and had started dragging him down the river... GOOD FUN.... and oh course we cruised along until the entire scouts canada saint john troupe came along beside us... and of course we were towing my little brothers 100lb ass through the ice cold water... so yes... thats my story... THE END ~josh~

well long time no hello, it looks like im back in NB, and the pressure for a live journal has returned, (i love the way this thing never expires) but yes. So ive been home for two weeks now, and its not to bad, minus the fact i miss a certain someone along with a certain city... but what can you do. Calgary was a great 8 months, i learned a lot (not necessecarily academically) but nevertheless i learned a lot. Ive become a recent employee at the cendant call centre, its not bad, but i still wish it payed better. Its full time though, so regardless of the pay i should be able to make some money at least (for next year) SPeaking of next year, heres the not to concrete plan, see, ive made the mistake of messing up my university "effective writing bullshit" but its only cause i didnt take it, but we will have to see.... oh and i got a 2.04 GPA... which is a C average, which is kinda sad, but oh well... crap, ive gotta go and get ready to go to my brothes, anyway, seeya later, and now taht im home, ill probably update a bit more BON SOIR ~Josh~

Teardrops
melting down teardrops frozen from the cold the memories I have never seem to grow old waiting for something I cant seem to resist the tears begin to fall and sprinkle to mist
holding on tight to the feelings I contain something within me clasps onto the pain theres only one weakness that keeps me alive its the teardrops that fall from deep inside
hiding in the fog to force a smile these precious feelings only last a while taking the time to think when im alone listening to songs with a mellow tone
i pray for the moment when the rain will end I hide from the truth that makes me bend Something hidden behind this lock That tells how the tears lift me up
Falling behind a shadow so thick I find something that never ceases to tick Holding my chest I close my eyes Walking through the shadows I don’t agonize
Hearing the clock that keeps me going i take two more steps until something is showing letting go of my heart to see what is there reaching forward to hold something that seems to care
touching the surface of something smooth I begin to realize it keeps the same tune Not having to worry about being so bold Its only melting teardrops frozen from the cold

well its 1:30 and im bored, fortunately im sitting in my room with 5 drunk people... all of which arent really doing anything but sitting around... im not drunk cause im tired of it, and no longer care if i am deemed anti social, casue when your drunk your not even remotly social... so yeah, im kinda cranky as you can tell, im jsut kinda sick of everyone hanging out im mine and matts room.. i mean i love hte people, but they are always here, and i cant find a way to ask them to leave.. well i have actually, ive tried the i want to study.. but they laugh and say that i wont study... i dunno what can i do i guess, i think ill just talk to mat about it, see what he thinks, but i know that i need to get a lot more study time in.. and i like to study in my room, so we will see....*Argh*
in other news today i bought a printer, one cd (pinkerton), 50 blank cds, paper, blank tapes, and it only cost me 20 dollars (thanks to gift cards)... i also found out my calling card is being used by someone else casue it went from 14 to 4 inbetween 2 uses... and wheni tried to call sandra it said taht someone was using it... but hey, i hate to make today sound so bad, it was great actually, i got a lot of useful stuff done, im just missing sandra hardcore and i said id call and didnt get to... which sucks ass, and then im sad casue my lil bro turns 9 tomorrow and im not gonna be there... and in 4 days is my moms bday too... and i have nothing to give :( but hey ill call and say i love em and sing em happy birthday
school has been scaring me, its really hard and i think that i might not do to well (im telling myself i will... but im still a bit intimidated) meh, maybe im worrying to much, but who knows, oh yeah i got to go to cats uncles house tonight.. it was amazing, they were really rich and fed us a great meal, it was roast beef, and roast potatoes and carrots and onions, and then we had some nice rolls, and for desert... oh man, for desert, we had some kick ass home made apple pie :P it was so good, and what a change :) see food makes me happy, but im still kinda blah'd out about missing people

okay so times have been getting better, today things have started to look up :D... okay well mayeb you didnt know things were down... but money troubles and course scares were all over the place, but today i felt some relief. so heres whats been happening, ive less then 20 in my pockets so that sucks.. and i found i need to buy another 100 dollar book (sucky ass) and because of that i have to wait another week till my check comes in.. which is hardly enough for dorm.. but we will see, so yeah thats not cool, but its okay now casue i might be getting like an extra 7 grand.. which is muchly needed for second semester... but yeah like i said its all looking okay now, but oh well
... yes so what was i rambling about... oh well, newho, im happy today and thats cool, im sitting here wearing matts hat and updating my journal.. lol.. which reminds me of something matt did.. there was this advertisement for alesse (spelt wrong probably) but newho, hes like.. oh is that stuff that antidepressent.. and well now we all laugh at him horribly cause we all know that its birth control (silly bastard) but yeah that was a good time
in other news, ive decided that poli sci is fun.. hard to understand, but thats why i like it, its all new stuff to me cause i know nothing about politics, so i find it interesting... it will wear off soon prolly, but oh well
everyone should get this song.. its like techno, but great "fischerspooner - emerge" its awesome, very uplifting and makes me want to dance/juggle... thats right dance juggle, oh well... so lets see what else is new, oh yeah i miss my little brother a lot, hes a cute little bastard and im sad that i wont get to see him grow up :( but i keep telling him i love him so it should be okay
*flips over news bulliten* so yes, in a desperate attempt to find something holy and pure in university (Cause we all know its all about sin) josh has recently become less social... it seems that the social activities all involve going to the 18+ bars (thankfully im 17) but what can ya do.. so yes, heres some advice for the youngins, NEVER GO TO BARS... im kidding, go they are fun... (im on crack... this entire paragraph made no sence)
so yes... desperate now... dman it all, looks like ill actually have to go do some homework .. stupid procrastination
