Dear Journal,
Last week I fried another harddrive. My mother was complaining that she had a nap last Wednesday afternoon and that she couldn't sleep through my harddrive making so much noise so she shut it off. I got home and had to make my own dinner because she went out. Erik also rollerbladed down and I had dinner with him and a beer. I went up to my computer and turned it on and realized what the problem was and took out that harddrive and took it to Niagara Electronics. Erik also tagged along and I dropped him off at his house on the way home. The next day Niagara Electronics calls my mom and says that they don't have any 40 gigs in stock and the offered her an 80 gig for $25. My mom than called me and I pretty much told her to run not walk. However while I was setting up the new 8- and reinstalling everything I fried that new one too. So I got that one replaced and that seems to have lasted so far. Still working on installing stuff though. Theres still time for me to fry this one too.
This past Monday I got into a car accident. I was heading over to Bea's house from Brock because I got out of my co-op early. Stupid university blond wasn't paying attention to the road and she ran into the back of me as I was stopping for a red light. She did a lot of damage to the rear end of the car and she ripped the front bumper off hers. She was obviously a student. She had a Brock University student sticker on her back window and she's only 2 years older than me. When I got out of the car she still had the lipstick line up her check because she had the lipstick in one hand mirror in the other. She fully admitted fault to me and the cop but I knew I was still moving when she hit me because I was still in the process of stopping for the red light. I told the cop that and he wrote her a ticket for Following To Close. She got really pissed off about that and started to argue with the cop. He just stood there and smiled as he wrote her up for various other things. She must have still had a license though because the next day I saw the same vehicle in the same lane and same intersection but this time she hit a transport truck. I doubt she's driving legally anymore. On Friday I took it to Dominion Auto so they could get an estimate on it. They looked at the damage and all they pretty much said the insurance company is probably going to declare it as a write off. My poor car. My FLUFY is dead. My first car. But my parents we're talking about it and I am 1 up on them. They were at fault when they had to write off their first cars. I wasn't at fault so I don't feel that bad. But still. I am going to miss that little car. Had a lot of good experiences in it. And some I don't even want to remember. We're looking for a new car. We're thinking we're going to get about $2,000 to $3,000 from the insurance company for the write off. My parents said they would but in $1,000 and I am going to put in $1,000. So we're probably going to be able to get a decent car. I am looking for something small. Hopefully a standard and anything but a Ford or a Saturn. I've also heard that Honda Civic's are pretty bad on car insurance so maybe stay away from one of those too.
Well this week has been pretty busy. I have been trying to get some stuff reinstalled on my computer and I still have Pool on Monday nights, the Welland Community Band on Tuesday nights and this past Wednesday night there was a school dance. It was actually pretty good. I liked the music because they were playing a lot of rap music. But I bet Rob hated most of the music though. lol. Had a few slow dances with Bea. It was great. Nice to revisit the thing that made us start liking each other before we started going out.
Friday was suppose to be a PD day. I had co-op though and I went from 9am to 4pm to make up the extra hours I've lost because I had such difficulty getting into the co-op I am in now. By the way. I am doing my co-op at Brock University. I am helping in the Faculty of Education. Pretty much just fixing computers. I am working with the Computer Adminstration staff. Lately its been boring because I am doing stuff that I have mostly done before. But soon I will learning more because the guy I am working with is intending on leaving for the month of December for vacation. So I am going to be taking over his position as the computer adminstrator for the Faculty of Education. I have my own e-mail address from Brock and I got my own access card too for everything on campus. Lucky me.
Well last night was rather interesting. I went to Erik's because thats pretty much as far as my parents were willing to drive me. I was hoping that Bea's mom would drive her over to Erik's. But since her parents hate Erik so much they wouldn't drive her over there. So I was really pissed off about that because all those times I have driven both Bea and Jenny around for their parents and the the time that I need them to drive her somewhere she won't do it. Well after sitting around at Erik's for awhile Erik suggested that I use his bike and he can use his blades and we'd go see Bea ourselves. Stupid me doesn't call her to see if shes home because I wanted to surprise her. So when we get there she wasn't around. Her mom said that her and Jenny went to Timmys and I should call Bea's phone. Well I call her to see what Timmys she went too. I ask her if she was at the Thorold Stone and Montrose Timmys or the 5 Corners Timmys. She said that Thorold and Montrose so we went there and she wasn't there. So here I am pissed off and I call her again and than she tells me she was 5 Corners. Timmys so than I am even more pissed off and than tell her that and to forget I'll see you Tuesday. So now I am even more pissed off because I just biked across town for no reason what so ever. I realized that I had more time than I thought I did and than we headed to the other Timmys. And of course when we get there she's not there either. So I call her again and she ignores her cell phone. So I call her house and than have her mom call her cell phone and than she finally called me but I let Erik answer it this time. So he's pretending to be me. Not very hard though. If she was paying attention she would of realized it was Erik but I don't think she was. It was pretty funny. Anyway, than I found out she went to Denice's for awhile. So than Erik and I headed up to her house and she headed towards us to meet us half way. So I got to spend I guess it was 10 minutes with her before we had to head back. Really kind of pissed off about that still. Would have liked to have had some decent time with her because I know she was really upset when I called her from Erik's that she couldn't come see me. And I know she's been having some problems at home lately.
Transportation to all my schools is going to be difficult. Bitch will is quite often late so I am going to be late everywhere I go. And since she is going to have to be driving me around everywhere I am going to have to be spending that much more time with her. Argh I am really going to hate that. I can't wait until I get a new car.
Well I got to go now bye for now.
