................................................................ ................................................................ & 'Cause everybody wants to feel good enough. & Welcome to my little Online Journal. My space on DHNet to unload thoughts and feelings. 09/08/02 Today is one of those days where there is nothing better to to than sit inside and watch the rain. Rain makes the world seem new. I've opened the window so I can hear the sound of it. Mum's s'posed to be coming home today. I have the sudden urge to write something again. My Ink Pen section is empty - but not for long. I'm debating which piece to put in it first. Put some new sketches up today. The past few days have been a kind of silent struggle for me. It hurts so bad. Yellow has just come on the radio, and I'm about to burst into tears. The house is empty, there's no one to hear me. 'Look at the stars, look how they shine for you. You know I love you so.' I think if I stay in this house another moment, alone with my thoughts, I will choke. 'For you I'd bleed myself dry.' Ok now the keyboard has gone blurry 'It's true, look how they shine for you. Look how they shine.' 25/07/02 Managed to smuggle Lisa into my dept. today, so I had someone to talk to! Caught Lee singing D again, so I had a lively discussion about SG/D with him *g*. Today I helped Helen with the Weddings supplement. Made some mock leaflets, then surfed the 'net looking for Cheshire wedding services.. but all I could find was clips of SG/D songs... hmm wonder how that happened ^_~ Was made to scan throught the competitor papers to look for companies that could be advertising with the guardian. Saw the advert I typed actually in the paper today ...nice to see my babies taking flight, hehe. During dinner I got lost on the market (can never figure that place out) and saw the mosher dressed as Gareth Gates AGAIN. I think he LIVES on the alice in wonderland statue in town. Then I prepared feature packs for all the members on the team and cleaned the white boards. Got high off the cleaning fluid fumes. Dan pointed out that the cleaning fluid had a rude name... it's called 'Nobcleane'. They're corrupting my young mind... I've learned a whole new vocabulary since Monday. Later on the manager came round and told us off for playing hangman. She made us listen in on a staff meeting. The manager looks like a female Mick Jagger. 24/07/02 Spent today in a board meeting. Y.A.W.N. It was training for marketing, using material that I had prepared - I am use for something!! B.Barlow is a bitch its official. She made no effort to include me at all. Most of the stuff she was going on about I actually got (whoo hoo!).. and lots of it was stuff we had gone over already in sociology (although what marketing has to do with sociology I dont know). I kept myself awake on their skanky coffee, and trying to figure out who one of the lads there reminded me of. When I got back from dinner B.Barlow sent me back out to buy dinner (?!?!). I dont remember 'Personal Skivvy' being part of the contract. Finally I thought of who that lad reminded me of! Dick Van Dyke in Mary Poppins!!!! *lmfao* Then the song from the film ..y'know the one that goes 'Chim chimmeny chim chimmeny chim chim cheroo' popped into my head, and I had to leave the room to laff my head off! The only thing I did to participate was wrote some key marketing words onto the white board. Oh well it gets better because this evening I finally saw Spiderman! Awesome!! All my friends came out saying 'yeah, it was ok' and I was like 'Whoo!! Go spidey!'. Oh well.. Im sad I know.... Decided to walk home from cinema. Bad idea. Walking from UCI we somehow ended up at the woodlands pub, and had to ring for someone to pick us up 'cause our feet hurted too much. 23/07/02 Yay! Guess what came today? Poscard from Sam! And I have no life so I scanned it in - click here to see it. Today was a good day! Did lots of important things at guardian, not just photocopying! Typed up txt for an advert appearing in the paper, and organised files for a conference I have to attend tomorrow. B.Barlow paid no attention to me, so Sandra was my mother goose for the day. She never shuts up. But very sweet. She took me all round chasing up clients and showing them designs for adverts. And even better - I found a fellow D fan in the office!!!! His name is Lee and he came behind me singing ICEGEOY and I said "Darren Hayes!!!" and went a bit mental. Oh well, I cant deny being a D freak can I? He said, and I quote "Im a big fan of the ole' Haysey" *lol*. And EVEN better I found Insatiable single in HMV!! But had no money.. grr! Met Bex and Chrissy in town, but they refused to go with me on my search for Insatiable CD2. Spoil sports - or words to that effect. 22/07/02 Late for ES because I needed a photo taken for this stupid lil security system college is getting, which means I cant scive any more lessons *fumes*. I see what Becky means about B.Barlow, she's B.O.R.I.N.G! But very sweet. She has the biggest arse I've ever seen. Spent all morning watching her struggle with a computer. Didnt say anything to help, it was just too funny watching. At dinner got Jen's VERY expensive present, and searched for Insatiable single. No luck. Asked in WHSmith for promo pics but they said they were'nt allowed to hand them out. Whytf not!? Bought sparkling water instead of still - yuk yuk yuk. Then from 1pm-5pm I became P.A to B.Barlow. Memo to me: Career as P.A not advisable. Well, at least now I know how to use a Photocopier. Knackered ...must ...sleep ... Oh.. and I got Spin back! Yey! 21/07/02 Spent all morning deciding what to wear for executive shadowing. Decided on shirt n skirt. Went to Chester in the afternoon. I listened to the First album all the way there - I'd forgotten just how damn good that record was. Found an eeny meeny miny Starbucks in Chester (much to the annoyance of Dad), so am no longer suffering Starbucks withdrawal symptoms. Heard BMSM being played in a Cafe there. Managed to wear sunnnies all day without losing/breaking them! I'm quite proud. Parents somehow (I dont remember how, it was a blur) managed to drag me onto a peddle boat. I dont think I'll say much more, I've lost all respect for myself. 20/07/02 Got a new camera today! Yippee! It's great, it has a HUAWGE zoom lens, but it cost a bomb! Oh well! In WHSmiths they have some promo D pics so I think I'll ask for them. Still no Insatiable single. Bought a bundle of new things to help tame my hair. This sucks - this now means I can't just roll outta bed and go... I have to get up and style it *pout*. Made a fool of meself having a bullrush fight with Becky. 19/07/02 One word - RAIN. 18/07/02 This 'Doo is going to take some getting used to. It keeps falling infront of my face - it's like tunnel vision! My dog has perfect timing. It decided to shite infront of some really cute guy who looked like Christian from BBMak. And being the the responsible dog owner that I am, I had to pick it up infront of him. I really cant believe Chrissy didn't notice my new hair... I mean... I look totally different! Maybe this her way of saying "Vicky, it looks like something scraped off the bottom of a bird's cage!". I had to go and rescue her today, she was stuck in college with no one to walk home with. So going to college to walk Chrissy home was my good deed for today. Can't find the Insatiable singles anywhere. They must be laying in a bargain bin somewhere! The stupid woman from the Guardian STILL isnt in. She better hurry up and get back soon, otherwise I'm tracking down her home address. 17/07/02 First entry! And a new 'Doo to kick it all off. Howcome when you get your hair cut you can never keep your hands off it? "You sexy thang" *strokes hair*. Now I'm going to bore you with the events of today. So I'm s'posed to be on summer holiday, but I still get dragged into college to be the 'odd job' lady. If they think tomorrow I'm trooping in at 9am to pick staples out of a wall they can kiss my ass. Waste of my talent :P Chrissy finally remembered the Programme from the Ronan concert we went to, so I went in search of a Copy shop. Found a place that prints t-shirts on my travels (Memo to me: This will be handy for Oct 3rd). The man in the shop said to colour photocopy a programme would cost £26 - £1 a page, and advised me that next time it would be cheaper to buy the actual programme. Smart Ass. So I settled for a double page spread of Ronan. Booked a holiday - will be away from 28th July to 2nd August. Starbucks with Sam will have to be put on hold. Oh and by the way, the little icon at the top will take you back to DHNet. How you ever found this place I do not know.
