Dear El Jay,
My life is full of late nites, myspace, and cigarettes. Not the best way to live. I am rapidly getting poorer and poorer. I need to get it together.
On an upside... 8 Films 2 Die For is playing in Pittsburgh in November. Guess who's getting an All-Access Pass? Yeah, that's right. THIS girl.
Love,
Nicki

[23 Sep 2006|01:58am] |
So... I'm typing this entry from my brand-spankin-new laptop in my new home away from home. My dorm room is seriously sweet. I have my Evil Dead, NotLD, and Texas Chainsaw Massacre posters plus multiple silly pictures.
Annnd... we have a fan. And a fridge. And a microwave with a picture of the Turtle on it. The Turtle being Courtney's mom of course.
I gotta get up early, so I'll catch ya later El Jay.

Tra-la-la.
I just ate two hot dogs. Delicious. Some people have a problem eating hot dogs because they do not know what's in them. Well, frankly I don't give a damn. They could be made out of Ethiopian children for all I care. They are damn tasty!
I also had a craving for chocolate milk, which is odd because I don't really drink it too often. By choice, I'd rather have regular milk, especially if I'm eating cookies/cake/etc. But I was just really in the mood for it. I still am, so I might have to whip myself up another glass.
Orientation starts next Tuesday. I need to start packing my shit up to move. I'm really excited about starting college and I don't care if that makes me a lame. I am not fucking around this time because (of course) I'm paying for my education. I need to make something of myself.
I also need a laptop. If anyone would just LOVE to give me some money, that'd be greeeeat.

Work today. Ritz camera. Should I wear cordoroy pants and be fashion faux pas? I am running out of clothes to wear at this freaking job. It's very hard for be to dress ...respectable.
I ate a crunchwrap today. And tried to stalk people on Myspace. But then I got disgusted with the whole mess and came to livejournal. And maybe I'll actually style my hair and shit for work today. But probably not.
Hmm.. very lazy? Yes.
11 days 'til Snakes on a Plane.

I made a nice heaping bowl of mac & cheese. Ahhh... my childhood favorite.
I'm doing laundry for Johnny and right now his shorts are in the dryer. I can get the metal pyramids clinking off the sides of the dryer.
I also did dishes. But I am NOT vaccumming or washing the kitchen floor. Yes, they are slightly dirty, but I have to draw the line somewhere. I am lazy, I know.
I really don't want to go to work tonite. I just hope it isn't crazy-busy.
Lloyd's having a party tonite. Courtney called to ask if I wanted to go, but I have plans to hang out at Deef's. I do want to go though just to see him and say hi, although I hardly know him anymore. I don't know any of his new friends, so it would just be awkward.

I got burned by my seatbelt yesterday.
I went shopping for Johnny's birthday today. And he's getting awesome gifts. But I won't talk about then because I think he reads this sometime. Oh well.
I just burned the roof of my mouth with some mexican pizza. And orange juice doesn't help.

Some shitty Beach Boys stuff |
] |
I was just listening to a lovely punk rock mix cd and somehow now the Beach Boys are playing. I guess that's what I get for using my mom's stereo.
So. It's humid as balls. And my grandma is supposed to be here, cleaning. She is MIA. So I did the dishes. But, it's just shit that me and Johnny used and were too lazy to clean up.
I need a shower. And I also need to wash my hair. But, I'm going to dye it tomorrow, so I gotta keep it dirty. Doncha know that dye takes to dirty hair better?
y family is away at the beach for the week. And I am at home, working. But I need money for a fucking laptop for school. I suck at saving money, so this is a rough one for me. I want to buy a leopard-print headband and make-up and cds and movies and XM radio. BUT NO! I must persevere.
Ok, I think it's time to shower and make myself look pretty.

I've been sitting here, eating some good-ass chocolate that is just lying on my brother's desk. Shame on him for leaving it out in the open!
My second day off this week. And my last. I'm working at 7am all weekend. And we are completely booked with doggies for this weekend. I will probably want to shoot myself many times over the course of the next... hmmm.... week and a half? To make matters worse, the district manager is coming to our PetsHotel on Saturday and working as a supervisor/manager. It's not bad enough that she's coming when we are extremely busy, but she's actually going to be hands-on. And by hands-on, I mean she's going to be bossing everyone around. I would pay $100 bucks to see her clean up shit.
Tomorrow Joe Deef is having a party in honor of Evil Day. Joe decided he wanted to create his own holiday. That holiday is... EVIL DAAAAY. I told him I'd make cookies. Of course before the party, there's a show at Roboto.
Maybe I won't be a bum and play the Sims all day. Well, actually there's no chance of that. I will be a bum.

****PLUS the first annual Evil Day festivities.***** $1 at home for traveling bands. thanks
Disturbed by the ridiculous holidays the greeting card companies have designed, (i.e.-sweetest day?!?!) I decided to start one of my own. Evil Day is a cheap halloween knock off. The show will have Evil Day decorations, Evil Day treats and me in an Evil Day costume, along with a bunch more ridiculousness! Dress up for Evil Day and get a dollar off admission at show!
Don't miss this opportunity to be a part of holiday-making history! Be a part of Evil Day before Budweiser rips it off and sells it to high-five roofie bro bars. You can say YOU WERE THERE!
Party at our place after to celebrate this wonderful new holiday that celebrates the knock off evil. Also, I will get drunk. All are invited to watch me tell stupid stories and generally not shut up. joe D-
Byob + $1 for the traveling bands

Nekromantix: Gargoyles Over Copenhagen |
] |
I finally have time to get on the damn computer. Mine is still un-usable. Yep.
I went to Vegas two weeks ago and I fucking LOVE the desert. We had just as much fun as last year. Well, maybe even more fun. Courtney and I got hit on by the world's best John Lennon impersonator. We got complimentary show tickets from him. We also got comped spa passes at Harrah's. We are such fucking high rollers. The only things I missed were Johnny, pine trees, and Sheetz. In that order. I would be infinitely happy to transplant all of the above to Vegas, where I can throw dollar bills into fountains (the mark of a true high roller).
Plus, the desert gives me good hair days everyday! No humidity means less grease and frizz!
Day off today, which is nice. I'm working 5-day weeks now but I'm getting sick of my fellow PetsHotel employees. Plus, I want a job where I won't smell like piss after work. But I will miss the puppies.
Ok, I'm gonna play the Sims. And eat some left-over gnocchi from last nite. Mmmmm... gnocchi.

Ah-Ha: Take on Me |

I'm typing this from Johnny's work. I'm taking full advantage of the endless supply of Starbucks hot chocolate. He's supposed to be doing work, but he's really only playing with balloons and listening to music. I'm now gonna play some games and maybe take a nap.
Oh, and I'm getting my outline work done for my first tattoo on Tuesday!!!
And my mom doesn't know.

Mom Sweatin' to the Oldies |
] |
So. I haven't posted in about a million years.
Today I was informed by my english teacher that if I didn't turn in my complete senior paper by Friday, I would not be graduating in the class of 2006.
So...
With that kind of motivation, I busted my ass compiling all my works cited, changing my outline, and re-writing the final paragraphs and conclusion to my paper. I even did the cover page.
I'm proud of myself but I also want to chastise myself for being such a procrastinator. Bad Nicki!
I did the presentation on time though. Last Thursday. Everyone loved it and I'm confident that my presentation is the best Woodland Hills High School will see this year if not forever. I even brought a crew to watch me present: Johnny, Mom, Gram, Anthony, Mikey O, Tiffany, Katelyn, Janise, and Dominique. In addition to my classmates. Yeah, I'm a popular gal. Everyone wanted to see me in my zombie glory.
Now that my project's done, I am feeling the sapping effects of a particularly potent case of senioritis. I'm done with my senior project, I got into college... what else do you want from me?! After prom is when the downhill slide really picks up. I just hope I can last that long without wilin' out!
Johnny is now on his way in his new carrrr. We're gonna go be piggies at CiCi's and then maybe I'll drag him through the mall.
I need to put proper shoes on because my flip-flops won't cut it right now. The temperature dropped and it's raining out right now.
Post Script: I need to come up with 300 bones like, right quick so I can go to Vegas.

I had some terrible hair styles as a child. When I was about 4-5, my mom gave me a bowl cut! Very traumatic, let me tell you. At least I don't have any photos to show of it. Anywho, enjoy!

Johnny Cash: Get Rhythm |

I know I haven't updated in a while, even though I said I was going to. But, I've decided that I want to start doing things right in my life and that includes starting to write again.
I got sick of the pink leopard print. Don't get me wrong, I still love it. But I've replaced it with brown leopard print and Kyra Schon!
I really need to start buckling down at school. My senior paper still isn't turned it and it was due a month ago. Next week is the end of the grading period and I am determined to get back on Honor Roll. It's so hard though because I have a major case of senioritis. And it's contagious, believe me.
Annnnywho, tomorrow is the Horrorpops show. I can't wait because I know it's going to be so much fun. Let's just hope I don't get into another fist fight with some big dude!

The Dead Boys: I Don't Wanna Be No Catholic Boy |
] |
Sure, it's almost the weekend. But not quite yet. One more full, boring day of school.
Woke up with a killer headache that I just couldn't shake during my shower and subsequent dressing/toothbrushing/make-up applying. I usually try to get rid of ailments before resorting to medication because I don't want my stomach lining to disintegrate or some shit. Finally I took an Aleve and went to school. But, it was stuck in my throat (because I'm stupid and didn't talk it with water) and I had to deal with that horrible almost-nauseous feeling through 2nd period. Finally it and the headache went away. The rest of the day was pretty uneventful.
Oh, it was Corn-Dog Day at lunch. Yum.
Work was slow and boring. I brought Cocoa out and he peed all over everything. But then he wanted to be cuddled like a baby, so I gave in.
Had Taco Bell for dinner. Yum.
I'm waiting to call Johnny because he has to read something for work and I don't want to disturb him. He has seemed kinda distant the past two days but maybe because I've been feeling extra-needy. I think it's the whole menstruation thing. Hah.
PS: When a Stranger Calls looks like the most terrible horror movie to come out since House of the Dead.

Ramones: Rockaway Beach |
] |
I'm just finishing up my oh-so-tasty dinner of ramen noodles. Very healthy, I know. But hey, you cannot deny the deliciousness of them.
Work was extremely boring today. I sat my ass on a creaky stool and waiting for people to wander in and pick up their puppies. I did make a new spreadsheet for a thing Susan wants us to do: document all the regular daycampers so we can make reservations in advance for them. I battled with Excel for a while and finally made something acceptable.
School just seems to drag lately. I'm trying my hardest to not slack off and get good grades, but I just loooove to procrastinate. I am a champion putzer. I don't even know the proper spelling of that, but I guess it doesn't matter.
The only thing I'm waiting on is an acceptance letter from Carlow. I am pretty confident, but there's always that little nagging voice in the back of my head, taunting me: "You suck and you'll never amount to anything! You can't get into this school." It's enough to drive me crazy.
Well, I'm freezing and I guess I'll wrap this up. As soon as I get my camera back from my mum, I'm going to take LOADS of photos!

So I was rejected from Pitt. I knew I wasn't gonna get in, especially applying so late, but it's still depressing. BUT... with a little bit of luck, I'll get into Carlow, talk Courtney into going there, still be in Oakland, and transfer to Pitt in a couple of years! Maybe even go to grad school there! That's my plan. But for now, I get to be sad.

HorrorPops: Where They Wander |

Yanno, I haven't posted in this bitch in SO long. I guess I need to start.
I have been so busy with school and work. I haven't been accepted to any colleges yet. I know I'm a slacker! I did so poorly this six-weeks in school (mainly because I have a new boyfriend). Speaking of, his name's Johnny and he's a sweetie. I love him. Yeah, I rushed into that one but oh well.
I don't feel liking saying much else. I have to slowly work my way back into this journal thing. BUT.. I'll leave you with a picture!
I went to the after-party for an art show on Friday and there was SO MUCH BEER. Of course I didn't drink any, but I thought that over-flowing garbage can was pretty funny. And, there's the debut of my septum piercing on El Jay. Enjoy!
