Time:3:15 pm.


You are the World


Completion, Good Reward.


The World is the final card of the Major Arcana, and as such represents saturnian energies, time, and completion.


The World card pictures a dancer in a Yoni (sometimes made of laurel leaves). The Yoni symbolizes the great Mother, the cervix through which everything is born, and also the doorway to the next life after death. It is indicative of a complete circle. Everything is finally coming together, successfully and at last. You will get that Ph.D. you've been working for years to complete, graduate at long last, marry after a long engagement, or finish that huge project. This card is not for little ends, but for big ones, important ones, ones that come with well earned cheers and acknowledgements. Your hard work, knowledge, wisdom, patience, etc, will absolutely pay-off; you've done everything right.

Subject:Updateyness
Time:7:13 pm.
Ok...yeah it's been awhile since I posted...

So what's been going on you ask? Not much actually. Well...I can't say that truthfully.

My car was stolen around the end of October. Yes...someone had the fucking balls to take the green machine. It was found less than a week later, abandoned, about 10 mins from my house. It was a write off. So my baby is no more. Which is a good and bad thing. Bad -- I'm without a vehicle at the present time. Good -- it was the last piece of my past that I was clinging onto.

The whole dating thing has been...interesting. The few guys that I have been out with have turned out to be duds. I mean...I'm new to the whole dating game, but, is it appropriate to try and stick your hand up my shirt on the first date?!? Seriously. So yeah...not so good.

But other than that...still working. At Tim Horton's. Which I'm not too fond of...but I really like the people I work with. I've made some really good friends there and I have new clubbing buddies. Which I have been doing alot of lately. Shenanigans in downtown Calgary for the win!!

That is where I spent New Year's Eve. Good times ;)

Silly thing is...I'm doing things now that I should have been doing in my 20s. Making up for lost time I guess. But damn...I'm having alot of fun!!

The best part! No stupid bullshit drama! Yay! Well not mine anyway. It's nice to look in on someone else's for a change :p

So that's about it for now.

Love ya!

Jennifer


P.S. My computer is finally fixed! Thank you, Troy! Who will probably never see this...but thanks! *loves*

Subject:Update and stuffs
Time:11:41 am.
Well I'm still here. In Calgary that is. I'm at the library at the moment cause my computer is fucked. Just got it fixed and I can't access the internet yet. So it's still a work in progress.

I've been working since September. Enjoying that again...but I have to admit..I got used to not working and just doing what I wanted. *sighs* Time to be an adult again. Sucks ass!

Been developing a social life, making friends, going out. And I've started swimming in the shallow end of the dating pool. Working my way towards the deep end. And having so much fun doing it! I've made a pact with my self to stop jumping from relationship to relationship and just have some fun...cause we all know how well that works out! :p

So I'm relaxing and having a great time! I'm so rusty at the whole dating thing I feel like I need rule book or something "Dating for Dummies". I wonder if the University of Calgary offers a course? :p

But other than that...I've made total peace with the way my life has worked out. I'm happy with the results. It was a long hard road to get here...but I made it! And I'm going to toot my own horn for a sec and say that I am actually quite proud of myself.

I miss Victoria on occasion. Mostly my friends and family. But I am so glad I made the decision to move. It's done me a world of good. I still don't know if I will ever move back. Visiting yes. There's a whole big world out there that is calling my name..and I think I will finally answer.

Miss everyone so much!

Love you!

Jennifer

Subject:Nakusp Music Fest
Time:11:30 pm.
Oh...my....sainted aunt. What a fucking weekend! Best I have had in so..so..so long! I'm sunburned, mosquito bitten, hungover and exhausted. But it was worth it! The bands I was able to see were Rita Chiarelli, Ryan Donn, BC/DC, Bryan Byrne, The Commitments, Johnny Reid, Smashmouth, Gin Blossoms, McCuaig, Johnny Bowskill, MerQury, Honeymoon Suite, Aaron Prichett, Skavenjah and Paul Rodgers.

My favourites were The Commitments and BC/DC. But all of the bands were incredible. I've never experienced that before. I just really cannot describe it.

We camped at this really great site just outside of Nakusp. M and I were pretty much kid free for the whole weekend! Yay for her parents!

So of course we ripped it up. *laughs* we haven't been able to do that together in a LONG time so it was really great. We talked alot about old times and old friends. Had a few for friends that are terribly missed.


I'm going again next year...come hell or high water! :D


I've recently figured out that I have traveled more and done more things in the 2 and 1/2 months since I have moved to Calgary, than I did in the last 5+ years in Victoria. *shrugs*

Subject:Well here I am
Time:1:30 pm.
Been in Calgary for a month now....enjoying it so far. Been looking for work on and off. Taking my time, enjoying my "time off" so to speak. I really needed it.

I have been mainly helping out Michelle with the boys. Picking them up, dropping them off. Practicing for the future...*laughs*

I've gotten to know my little area of Calgary decently well. Haven't been into the core of the city yet. Too chicken! It's a hell of alot bigger than Victoria! And rather intimidating.

I've been exploring alot of Alberta. I think I have travelled more in the month I've been out here than in the last 5 years I was in Victoria. Which is a good thing!

I've gotten alot of things sorted out in my head. Made peace with my past. I'm excited about what the future holds for me and I love the person I have become...how many people can say that? :p

Not sure yet if Calgary is going to be my permanent home. Who knows where I will end up in the next 6 months or 6 years? It doesn't frighten me any more to explore my future and what it holds for me. I'm living each day and not planning too far ahead.

I've got so many decisions to make and choices to consider with the rest of my life, that sometimes I have no idea what the fuck I am doing. But who cares? Roll with the punches.

I know that sometimes I am going to fall on my face, but I'm going to pick myself up, dust myself off, learn from it and move on.

Subject:The light at the end of the tunnel
Time:4:08 pm.
I can finally see it. It's still dim...but atleast I know it's there now. And I'm crawling towards it.

I'm finally gaining the skills I need to shake the depression and the sometimes overwhelming anxiety I feel on an almost daily basis. The counselling has helped so much more than I thought it was going to. I've learned alot about myself and why I do some of the things I do. I've had several epiphanys along the way. And I am doing every thing I can to make sure I don't repeat my mistakes or my behaviours in the future.

Learning to let go of the anger and feelings of betrayal. Which is really hard. After awhile you get so used to it being there all the time, it's like kicking a drug habit. To replace the anger that I am letting go of I sometimes get pissed off over the silliest things. It's my way of compensating for the loss.

I am however really sad over the lack of support from people I have called friends. I got an email from someone the other day who basically told me that I was being stupid for feeling the way I do. That I pretty much had no right to be angry, sad, pissed off or hurt. That I needed to suck it up and get over it. That really hurt. And this from someone I have known a very long time. Needless to say I was quite suprised.

I have EVERY right to feel the way I do. And who the fuck do you think you are to tell me different?

I did not respond to said email.

I am eternally grateful to a small group of friends that have stuck by me unconditionally. 2 of which I met recently during my trip to Alberta. 4 of them know all my drama, my pain, my anger. They never hesitate to sit on the phone and listen to me rage, cry or vent. Repeat myself 100 times over the same stupid subject. And not once has anyone told me that I was wrong. Not once did they say "uh...sorry I have to go..can I call you back later?" And suprise, suprise..no call back. They have all told me time and again...to call anytime. No matter what time. This is a very rare thing to find. These people mean the world to me and I wouldn't be the same person without them.

It's hard to believe I am leaving for Alberta in less than 6 weeks. May 12th will be the beginning of my new life. I'm excited, scared, nervous, anxious and happy all at the same time. This is exactly what I need to do. Some might say I am escaping or running away. I guess in a way I am...I'm running away to save my sanity. I hate it here right now. When I got off the plane in Alberta I felt happy, and free. When I got off the plane here after my trip, the depression hit and it crushed me.

So...that in a nutshell is what I have been dealing with lately. Yeah it sucks...yeah I'm exhausted. But I'm learning alot.

Never again will I EVER allow someone to try and change me, or curb me, tone down my personality. This is me. Wild, outrageous, obnoxious on occasion, crazy, funny, flirty, Jenn.

If you don't love it...get the fuck out.

Subject:Ever doubted you've made the right decision?
Time:4:24 pm.
I made a decision recently. A very hard one. I sat down, weighed the pros and cons, decided to do it, put the decision into motion and carried it out. Now I am doubting myself. I can't help but wonder if I made the right decision. I made A decision. But is it the right one?

The few people I have asked have said yes, I made the right one. While it's hard now, will things get better? I'm doubting myself something fierce right now. How do I know it's right and everything will be okay?

I'm feeling incredibly lost. I realize that it is going to take time to see the "light at the end of the tunnel". But do I keep walking? Or sit down and wait for someone to find me?

Subject:I had my first dream last night about Colleen
Time:12:37 pm.
We were sitting in lawn chairs. She was wearing her old pair of jean shorts and one of her sparkly black tank top/t-shirts. The ones she usually wears in the summer. She's talking a mile a minute to me. But it's like someone put the TV on mute. Can see she's talking but I can't hear her. She reaches over and takes my hand, we sit holding hands for a few minutes, and she's talking away. I'm straining to hear her. But I can't.

I finally just say that I love her and I miss her. Woke up a few seconds later, in tears.

Not really sure what to make of this.

Time:7:57 am.
We had a falling out.  A major falling out.  In spite of it all I love her.  She is my best friend.  I will never get the opportunity to talk to her about what happened.  But I will remember her.  I will remember the talks we had, the trip to June fair in Washington state with Lenora, screaming "punch it!  punch it" as we raced to the ferry.  I will remember, also, drooling over Vin Diesel the first time we saw him while watching the behind the scenes stuff from Iron Giant.

I will remember her obsession with my boobs.  I will remember shopping.  I will remember watching scary movies in the theater, crouched down in our seats, holding hands.  I will remember Pride and Predjudice.  I will remember going through a package of bacon after the parties.

I will remember her spirit, her beauty, her zest for life.  I will remember being in awe, watching her dance. 

Keep dancing my love.  Keep dancing.

Subject:Something interesting I've learned about myself recently....
Time:6:43 pm.
Mood: confused.
Just an odd little thing, really.  I don't cry.  I mean I do, but not like I used to.  Sappy movies, telephone commercials and those stupid "reunion" shows they have on daytime talk shows. 

Case in point....The Notebook was on TV not to long ago.  For those of you that have seen it you know you cry everytime you see it. Regradless of how many times you have seen it,  I watched it...all of it.  And...nothing. Nothing at all.  Yeah I got a little choked up at the end there.  But I didn't go through the 100 boxes of kleenex like I normally do.

*shrugs*  I really don't know what to make of it.  Is this a good thing? 

I'm kinda confused.
