7:11 pm - How's the weather
|
Daniel Jun,
The weather is getting cold, fast. The wind has been picking up as well. There is not a day that goes by that I don't wear a sweater to school. The grounds in between the buildings is open so it is especially easy to feel the breeze when going to class to class. Saturday... there was horrible weather and it was discomforting to drive in the rain on my way home from work. That night was the Stones Concert as well, everyone was soaked to the bone. Mike enjoyed himself and tired himself out (he was six feet from the stage) and I, not being a dedicated Stones fan, spent the night cooped-up in my house studying (nice and dry!).
I'll talk to you soon,
Jenn
P.S. Here in Halifax we are proud to be a potential host city for the 2014 Commonwealth Games. Evertime I see one of our bus ads I think of you and your monkeyshines! I'll see you in 2010.

10:47 pm - Letter to Jen Xu
|
Hey there Jen!
It's good to see some mail in my inbox from time to time. Frosh week was awesome. Besides learning many new cheers (new, in the sense that the words were replaced with either Tiger's, Dalhousie, Off-Campus or Frosh), I met many people in my science programme and my two second-year frosh leaders. I've learned how to navigate the campus and much of the city (by bus) and have spent way too much money on campus. Partly because I needed many expensive books and because I find that I'm always hungry- I must be burning through the calories in Calculus!
I hope that everything is well with you. It's good to hear from you! I'd like to hear about your adventures these days!
Oh! Watch for team Trent at the Cup and especially Mike MacMillan from Nova Scotia. Say hi, I've told him all about Shad Lakehead!
Bye for now,
Jenn N.

Hello Daniel-jun!
I'm sorry I didn't get to reply earlier, but I've been busy with WebCT assignments. They are basically Hot or Super Hots. Still, I find myself caring a bit more about them! (It was good to have some practice though!) I finished a Chem Self-assignment which basically composed of significant figures, the first 36 elements of the periodic table and questions on Molarity. They were interesting and the final two had me doing complex algebra. Yay!
Everything so far is basically a review. Phew. All though I'm struggling to understand the multiple creation myths from Mesapotamia which is important to understand, not only because it's interesting, but because there is a comprehension test tomorrow.
I just convinced myself to go study.
Au revoir!
Jenn

6:56 pm - Paca-fiesta!
|
Fellow Shads,
I'm sure that some of you know this already, but here goes...Last week I started University at Dalhousie. Some of you might remember this school as the one with the video feed during the Shads speaks conference. The school is particularly large for someone like me and I found it extremely difficult to find my classes the first day (Classics-Mythology, Biology, Chemistry, Calculus 1000, Earth Science). Four out of Five of my classes compose of more than five-hundred students each and in one we even have a pigeon as a special guest.
For the most part I enjoy going to Dal (I get a shiny new bus pass!) although there are a lot of new faces who are mostly friendly and can give you directions. Meeting new people is something that I will have to get used to again because I will not be able to see my high school pals as often as I want. More new experiences are already starting to happen each time I step foot on campus and sometimes, more often than not, I think of my friends at Lakehead and how they are experiencing similar escapades. I have to admit that I have even ventured to wonder what it would be like if some of you were to attend Dal with me... regardless of the inevitable misadventures that would ensue; it brings a smile to my face each time I pause to consider it.
On a wackier note, today I went to the International Fiber Festival’s Paca-fiesta! in Halifax with my friend Caitlin. The exhibition honoured the alpaca, a small llama-like animal that is renowned for the fine wool it produces. Unable to control myself in an atmosphere of cute animals and even cuter wool products, I bought an alpaca fiber hat to keep my head warm this winter in Nova Scotia. “It was absolutely worth the cost” I tell myself now because after all, who likes to have a cold head and cold ears in an East Coast blizzard? Nobody. Another highlight was that I didn't get sneezed on this year. One cannot imagine how degusting, yet funny it is when alpacas sneeze on their admirers (me, September 2005).
If any of you wanted to know, as of now I am happy. With that I will leave this message with:
Much love,
Jenn Nnnnnn.
current mood:  chipper

3:18 pm - Where Jenn Updates
|
So I decided that I would start posting the emails that I send to Dave and Daniel-Jun because they are pratically the same as journal entries. This way every one will have an idea of what's going on in my life, since of course we are in university and therefore cannot talk to each other as readily. For those of you who don't know who Dave and Daniel-jun are I'll explain: they are two extraordinary people I met at Shad Valley this summer and two people I really want to stay in contact with in the years to come.
Dave lives in Winnepeg and Daniel lives in Vancouver. That's probably all anyone needs to know right now, especially because I just want to post the emails that are relevant to my life.
Here goes:
Daniel-jun,
I still hope that you are thinking about applying to Dalhousie. The University is quite extraordinary. Today, my second day, was better. I had Calculus 1000, Geology 1080 and Chemistry 125. I really enjoyed all the profs I met today, some are comical and very good at teaching (you can just tell).
The campus is still hard to navigate, but I found my classes with the help of some engineering students. They were shocked when I told them I was in Sciences, afterall Engineers are very exclusive.
I believe that I will enjoy Calculus the best because I seem to know most of the material already (a big thank you goes to my pre-cal teacher Mr Saab- he's one of the best!). The classes are composed of 500 students or so with the exception of Geology where there are about 50 first and second year students (this class promises to be good for discussions and the lab component is easy!). I rather enjoyed geography in high school and I'm glad that I'm taking this course because who knows, maybe I'll consider geology as a career down the road.
Here are some great things about Dal you should consider when making your university choice:
The ability to approach anyone and ask a question
Joining societies
Trivia at the Campus pub, interesting stuff!
The Teaching Assistance and Lab Assistance in the science classes
There is no broken glass on the paths!
The campus is large (26th largest in Canada, but it's still huge to me), but it's all contained on University Ave.
Bus Service is amazing and you get a University Pass with the tuition
You are located in the South End of Halifax, you can walk virtually anywhere in downtown Halifax from Dal.
Competition between Saint Mary's University
Student discounts everywhere!-PCs, Haircuts, Phone Service
New auditoriums, Class rooms and Residences
Excellent Orientation Week
Award-winning teachers, tutorials, WebCT, Extra help
Wireless!!!
*You can come visit me!
That's all I can think of right now, enjoy!
Later,
Jenn

8:05 pm - nice shoes for less!
|
so here is a quick entry because, a.) i am really tired and b.) life is one big blur.
if you haven't heard already i guess i should put it in print, i found a job. i work at the Shoe Company in the park and i know about 20% of what is going on at one time. i'm going through an extensive training programme which includes a "Success" workbook and buddy system floor training. out of all of this i have managed to almost memorise the meanings of the twelve digit code on the side of the boxes. i'm a little flustered because our basic training is "more like guidelines" than an actual resource. i was in the women's departement last night and my manager, Ray Ginsberg, was a little concerned that i was spending too much time with the "clients" and needed to break-away faster. although i considered it a little impolite i still went ahead and cut my encounters short. another thing that really makes me confused and bothered is that people ask me questions, pratical ones like "what if i try i size smaller?" or "are these leather?" because i have No Clue. i feel like saying, i've been on the job three days, own two pairs of good shoes from payless and have no experience in customer relations..go talk to my manager Ray for he is the shoe man.
other than the nine hour shifts, the dress code and my sore, sore feet (ironic hah?)working there isn't that bad. yesterday i purposely showed up in my sneakers, which is a no-no so i could pick out a pair of shoes for the day. i picked out a really nice pair of Rockport Casuals....drroooolll. they are so very comfy and stylin in a professional way. my new friend at work is Carolyn, a smart and funny girl who works two PT jobs in the park and who lives in an apartement in Claytonpark. She likes to complain, but then again so would i if i worked around fourteen hours a day.
also if you haven't heard yet i have passed my driving course and road test and now have a shiny new 5N. :)
today i got to drive all by myself to mike's house on the old hubley road. it was an excellent maiden voyage and of course my parents(more like my mom) were very worried and told me to call them on the cell phone when i arrived. it was crappy raining weather, but all went well! it was also very nice to crank the music even though the tercel's sound system is very sub-par.
so that's it for now and all talk to y'all soon!

So I exams are almost over, and I’m very, very excited about the next couple of weeks. Mainly because on Friday I’m going golfing with mike (for the first time) and telejournal tomorrow/Galen’s party and next week when mike is away I finally have some time scheduled in for me and Cait!
Some things I want to do this summer:
Go to the beach
Go to Cape-Breton with Mike
Go golfing
Go downtown/visit Loomis and the AGNS
Go on a picnic
Get a job
Get my full
Sigh, my new Coldplay cd is amazing…it’s very different from anything the band’s done. It’s more chaotic, but in a good way. Not to mention I have a harmless crush on Chris Martin. Caleb also enjoys this cd, although I’m not sure if he is equally affectionate about Chris Martin. The good news is that Caleb is going to teach me how to play guitar this summer, finally I’ll be committed to my guitar! Best part is, we’ll play on his roof, which sound really cool and slightly dangerous (just the sort of setting I want to nurture my skills in).
Update some more later, toodles

Hi everyone...I’m here.
I’m so totally happy that it is sunny outside, my mood has greatly improved! I’m wearing a skirt, sandals… (no sunblock) and I can’t stop smiling! These past few months and especially days have been so stressful, but my projects are all complete and all there is left to do is tie up a few loose ends.
Wow, I really love you all, mostly because you have been able to put up with me for the past while. I promise that I will be able to go shopping, swimming, walking/running soon and be a more outgoing person.
If you haven’t heard already, I am secretary for student council next year. I’m excited about it. It is mostly because I haven’t done anything in high school and because I know student council just hired a whole bunch of people I know.
Yeah, I updated. Yay!

This has got to be the must boring, easy day so far this semester. During English the people who were not at the Math Test thing listened to Edger A. Poe’s, « The House of Usher. », a lively, expressive tale, chalked-full with symbolism. It was very hard to pay attention…so Galen and I had a little girl talk. Me-“ya, I always get cramps the first day.” Galen, “ya…”, but he opened-up and we discussed some other issues besides womenhood(his goof-up last night). I also made a new friend today, Ryan in English, he has a Jack Skellington shirt, and a nice personality of course. Now in Canadian History we are researching, researching, researching away…I wish someone would whisk me away from this place. I know I could be doing something far more important, like playing with terracotta or building my secret lab (the one camouflaged by the secret island, behind the secret waterfall.) indeed the sketch for “our” plan have been set aside far too long. Instead of collecting dust we should be preparing the loan from the bank to start or at least robbing one. I have nothing to look forward to today, math test and another computer lab in French.

So I’m here in stupid Canadian History, wishing I could be European History and that I could talk to Mike. but what can I do? Here are some shouts;
->Cait says hi and that Jenn loves her.
->Dan- Dan is cool and he has a nice bum. (yeah).
This weekend will be a total waste of time. I have babysitting on Saturday with the Halpins and tonight is Patrick's birthday. I was invited to go to Martock tonight with Mike and some of his friends, but no, i couldn't. (But I really, really do want to go…. honestly I do.) First of all I can't even ski or snowboard, second I don't want to be the only one who doesn't who goes. Mike's friends are nice, but I doubt they'll appreciate me being needy and slow. It already upsets me that André had forgotten my name and only asks me about homework. To make me feel better, the other day I added Allan MacDonald and Dan Sanderson to my msn friends, under the appropriately named Tantalloners.
Allan is an extremely cool guy…he actually wants to be an Art teacher. Needless to say I am very jealous of him. He’s not that bad at art either and has showed me some of his drawings. Black and white, just like me. Everything is simpler in black and white… :)
Math class is getting better, I got a perfect mark on my second math assignment!
Yesterday Caleb started teaching me a new Coldplay song. I’m so upset. I’ve had my guitar since the beginning of first semester and I haven’t learned a whole song yet. I considering classical guitar, but I know my parents will never understand or want me to take actual lessons. Apparently, they’re not even encouraging me to drive anymore. I haven’t driven the Tercel in about month, I makes my wonder why my parents were so eager for me to get my learners. For crying out loud, they fought with me over it…they yelled at me about it. I don’t want to understand my parents sometimes, they fight over the most stupid things and I hate it when I get dragged into it.
Last night for example, I was getting out of the shower and going to my room (with a towel on) when my parents came home. Even before I was a little worried about showing my parents my yellow report card, but I decided not to show either my mother or father after I heard them fighting downstairs. There was such an awful mood going on downstairs that they probably would have been very opinionated about my marks if I showed them. They were arguing pointlessly over super. So when the phone rang I hoped it was mike or a friend to talk to (Cait did call earlier to discuss marks), but it was Jarett. He was picking up a present for Patrick for his birthday today, and I was to give my parents the message that he would be home after super. This gave me the perfect excuse to help disperse the arguments downstairs. I delivered the message, but dad, trying to pick a fight (as usual) only heard what he wanted and made a nasty remark, looking at me like I was some sort of child. I replied that he misheard me, “He is not picking up Patrick, he is picking Patrick up a present in the business park.” Then I turned around before he could say anything and went to my room. This is of course is why I will most likely be grounded within the next week, dad will be trying to pick a fight with me…try to find another excuse to control me. I picked up my Coldplay cd and went to the basement to start typing my English essay. “Don’t go sulking downstairs, super’s ready.” He said loudly. I thought I was going to cry…he is such a jerk sometimes…he never lets go of any argument, he never makes me feel good about myself. So last night dad didn’t join us for super and I was happy about that. Still, I’m still sorry that Mike didn’t call me when he said he would. I don’t want to be upset alone.
I’m going to draw something tonight.

i'm majored stressed about last semester, but i can only improve this time around. i swear i will be a good little math student and conjugate correctly.
it's hard to believe that cake season has started already. excuse my absence at the dance, i'll more than likely be celebrating jarett's birthday at home. heh. my mother has made it apparent to me that i have no night clothes. i think she wants to burn my pajama pants, but she'll never get them as long as i always wear them. so for my birthday i'm going with my mother's wishes and hoping for a housecoat, pajama pants, slippers and i wouldn't mind a certificate to le senza.
what's new with me?, you find yourself asking. well, i still do not have a new phone after dearest father swipped it for my health, i've almost finished zelda, went to the super fun fire-hall concert, leah made it apparent the other day that this is mike's and mine forth month together, i watched the whole pompeii special on discovery, i'm hooked on CSI, i started making love-day cards, finished one love-day card, gotten excited about love day, ignored thoughts saying that it's just another monday, and i have gotten extremely tired staying up late doing math and french.
until then, nighters one and all

2:37 pm - SWEET CUP N'CAKES!
|
I only have an hour or so left…until I have to participate in the annual Noade family Christmas reunion. There will be plenty of sliced meats and snobby cousins all round! I must say this is one of the two family events that I do not look forward to. Sure they’re family, but I’d much rather spend Christmas Eve with people who like me for who I am and not because I’m JUST family, closely related by some strange Irish genes. Sitting by myself will be tons of fun, I’ll tell myself. Then I’ll open my grandmother’s present. (More than likely another turtleneck sweater to add to my collection.)
I had my fun all these week though, so I’m still quite happy about that. The dance was uber fun. Twirling in my skirt made me very, very happy. Especially when you are being twirled by someone who is having just as much fun as you are. My tie-less escort got into the dancing wavelength as we bopped along to the green sinus lines forming behind us on the wall. It was a little hard to dance with you all because a lot of mike’s amigos showed up. So we were group hopping and dancing solo most of the night. What a good night!
Yesterday I slept in for the first time in a month. It felt so good! Mike came over in the afternoon and we exchanged our presents and celebrated our anniversary. Squuuiieee! That boy! I’m the proud owner of some new Faber-Castel soft pastels! The perfect gift and also a stained glass Christmas tree ornament and get this, a pocket Italian phrase book and Venice map! Woot! He’s so amazing! And he even wrapped it all himself! (I plowed him over with hugs!) Of course he greatly appreciated my gift too.
Christmas Shouts!
Graham I love you! You’re letter was so sweet; I’ll always keep it! I hope you have a very merry Christmas! Buon Natale as they say in Italy.
Caitlin, I finished the book already, it was hella good and very funny! Another great read indeed! We’ll go see the movie soon, and if we don’t, well you can pinch me! Aye!
Leah, I’m sorry you’re ill. I hope you and I can have some leah/jenn time soon, and not just to work on our physics project!
Ellen! I’m sorry I’m using so many !!!!! please ignore STOP. Happy holidays STOP.
K-Dawg! I hope to see you soon over break, we’ll have hot chocolate and cookies! WHHEEEEIIIIII!

Since I’m home a little bit early today I thought I’d update! Why am I home early? Well…because I can make my own decisions. Yup, my parents are loosening the leash and letting me explore the park (but keeping an unceasing watch on my actions, as parents should). I’m allowed to travel with new drivers. Last night my dad told me, my dad that I could start making my own decisions and start being independent. He explained that it was because I’m turning seventeen soon. Well, I also believe it’s because I’m being forced to go for my license. They want me to become independent by getting my beginners and not hanging around home when no one will drive…but I also think it has something to do with mike. Relationships equal responsible decision-making sort of thing. Ha. Have any of you guys gotten THE TALK and had to explain to your parents that PDR covered everything?
I’m on the verge of playing an entire song on my guitar…green eyes by Coldplay. Caleb was super-nice to me today and made me a handmade green eyes note sheet. It was so thoughtful and very Caleb of him. Nudge, nudge* I’d love the album Parachutes by Coldplay for Christmas.
Tonight I’m going to finish my homework and draw something pretty. I’m ignoring certain things that I need to survive; I’m very overwhelmed with Stuff as it is. Finishing that physics project felt very good and it felt even better when I passed it in early. Mr. lee said that it looked like a very well done project!!! Eeiiiie! Leah replies, “You had yet to behold a Jenn project.” J
The best part about today is, Jenn is getting a new backpack!!!! Goodbye, tears…goodbye lack of waterproofing, goodbye zippers and duct tape. I’ll show it off tomorrow if we have school ;)

This weekend went by very fast. On Friday as you know I took the bus and adventured with the gals. On Saturday I woke up and went to Patrick’s reconciliation and then directly to Mike’s for the remainder of the day. Sunday was spent reading, starting my physics project and doing the million bio questions assigned.
The highlight of course was going to see Mike. We hadn’t seen each other by ourselves for a while, so it was fun just to be silly and talk to each other. Ahahahahehehe (Italian mad laugh) I discovered his ticklish spot while I was there and used it against him. At one point we even ran insanely through his house as we took turns sneaking up on each other. And we twirled and ballroom danced on his slippery floor (obvious there wasn’t a lot of friction between the floor and our socks.). And we played a game of chess and watched a few movies together.
I have to get back to my physics project now, duty calls you know.
DIE, DIE, DIE HANSON! Mm-Bop out of my head!

Back in 86!...sorry i mean present day:
I’m going out with Mike Macmillan. I like everything about him, yes…even his haircut. I don’t think anyone knows him like I do, and I’m very proud of that. Our anniversary is on the 23 so 2 months will be coming around on the 23rd of December (the last day of school!) Sweetest guy eva. We can watch Bob Barker, we can have an intellectual history conversation, we’re learning Italian! (slowly), and he likes socks as much as me! He likes the Lord of the Rings and the Matrix…and snuggling’s the man! (Tears…why didn’t I meet him sooner? And why the hell was I scared to talk to him????) I really like the fact that my friends seem to like him. It’s going to be hard I’ll admit, to spend as much time with everyone as before. We’re both very attached to our roots, I the guild, him Ricardo’s. I like bringing him around the guild, but I don’t want to push him into spending all lunch down there. Sorry my amigos, I get the feeling that he feels uncomfortable (I probably would be) but I’m not ready to hang out with a lot of his friends. They happen to be all guys. I like our mixed little group, boys/girls we all get along quite well. I guess I would feel better if I had actually had a conversation with one of his friends before. Until something changes, I’m more than willing to keep spending time with you guys at lunch.
In other news,
Ian needs to find a date for the semi formal, if he is to go. Funny, I year ago I would have died to go with him. Meh, I just found out he broke up with his girlfriend of 10 months. Poor guy, but it annoys me that he just started talking to me again after their break-up. So can anyone help me find him a date? The more who go to the Christmas semi, the merrier, I always say. I’m also freaking out, because I’ve managed to get together my outfit already, I’ll I needed was a little motivation. *scowls* I expect you ALL to come, date or not. It’s Christmas and we are going to dance and enjoy ourselves.
Kathryn and I have been talking about having a joint Christmas partay. Someone must take the torch. So after convincing my mom that I should have the girls over I’m not sure what the next step is. So my dears, what say you? Small, yet fun Christmas party at my house?
It’s more than likely that I’ll be moving my journal permanently soon. Juggling school, social life and artistic life is hard. So I’m going to be posting on deviantart in the spring. This should help me be more focused and productive, since having one site going instead of two will be easier. Sorry if you are just hearing about my art site, it’s very poorly put together and lacking needed art. I just needed to get on my feet first and learn the ways. Having this was something fun to do personally. I missed art. I’ve been getting back into it lately. It like a nice slap across the face, if that’s possible. Every project has been turning out wonderful. Michela is partially to blame for it. It’s been nice to express myself in other ways. I love you too Caitlin! I’m blowing kisses your way! Maybe you all will get a nice surprise at Christmas.
James Brown rocks my soul socks! He’s so good that he has his own fine-lady dancers with his initials printed on their panties. Five-inch heels and a swanky tuxe, an awesome band and back-up singers. The concert on Thursday was very wild. Jacksoul, the band that played before, was spectacular and everyone got all hyped up for James Brown during a ten-minute introduction. Mike was so happy to go, he had the best time, which makes me happyJ. We didn’t get any swag afterwards, but we did get wet. It was pouring bullocks the whole day.
That’s enough for tonight…lurve you all.

The other night was complete awesome spontaneous fun and I loved it. It all started Wednesday. Leah called and asked me to come with her and her family to a spot I believe was called Portuguese cove. After waiting at a construction stop sign for 20 minutes we finally got there. There was a small hike to the beach area. Leah, Theresa and myself led most of the way across planks, dams, and bushes. I swear I was having deja vu at one point, but I had never been there before. We sat and ate our snackses on some dry rocks and watched the seals ahead of us. They were pretty noisy for being far off on an island. It’s always funny to imitate a seal call. We went back to Leah’s for a BBQ and watched some Olympics before Galen got dropped off. We went gallivanting around the neighborhood selling tickets for his trip and drove up to Caitlin’s. We became 4 strong and we planned on selling the last ticket at Tasia’s. I felt really bad when we stopped at Tasia’s, I haven’t seen her all summer and she said that she was bored and wasn’t doing anything that night, but we had a car-full already and I didn’t want to say anything. I wanted to invite her downtown too since her schedule is free from now until school. It doesn’t look like will ever get to it though. From Tasia’s we went to my house where we played some pool until Donna picked us up to take us back to her house for a fire and marshmallows. Sorry I’m such a pyro. I’m starting to talk to Galen now, which is great because we never really talked in the first place. That’s what campfires do. Donna drove us all home and we watched the stars from Galen’s upper deck. It was getting quite cold, but it was really fun…I saw 2 shooting stars! Sort of a magical way to end the evening or so I thought. Caitlin and I ran from Galen and Leah when we had to leave.
Today I got paid and tomorrow I’m working and Sunday also. Leah, the family and I went to Bayswater Beach today in the fog, but it was actually very nice and relaxing. I real beach too, I haven’t been to a beach since the last time I was in NB.
Oh yeah, I have to get my wisdom teeth out soon.
Probably in September.
Oh crap.
Sedation.
My parents have been hinting around a lot that I should get a boyfriend and it’s really pissing me off. Because if I get a boyfriend then they’ll never shut-up and drive me completely mad about having one. I can’t win. It’s not that I would not like having a someone, but I don’t feel interested right now. I’m content about being around couplers. I really miss dances though.

You've probably heard me mention or murmur his name before, Gambit, my favorite x-men character and quite possibly my favorite "super hero". This guy is awesome, and he reminds me a lot of George Cooper. So I love my new layout, thanks to Blue. Everything is coming-up spades.
