I am sick of writing topics based on work. Work sucks, and no one likes to read of such things.
Today is a new day to speak of times that I have enjoyed. What have you enjoyed, Leah? Well, I enjoyed a wonderful weekend at my friends college. Its called Central Connecticut State University (CCSU). http://www.ccsu.edu/
The school and its practices actually have nothing to do with the good time that had taken place. My sister, Julianna, and I took a trip up to this college to visit our good friend, Emily. Emily happens to work at a pool hall that is located on the campus. Its called Breakers. Watch out now. We would go there and shoot some pool, because its a pool hall. Horribly I might add. My friend Emily and I would make an all star reject team. It was fun none the less. The campus is quite large, so we walked around the whole damn place and just chit chatted and the likes.
Flashback:
A few days prior to this weekend trip we headed up there just to visit. In that time we met two lovely lads. Names? Alex and Pete-tah (say pete-tah with an english accent...or die). That night we basically hung out with them and Emily. What did ya do? We played basketball, frisbee, and even enjoyed a lovely time model walking to music that was pure perfection for the occassion. Did you frolick? Fuck yes. We had such a good time enjoying eachothers company that we really didnt need much to keep eachother entertained. It was a glorious evening. Alex is a really cool down to earth guy. You can get along with him, no problem. Alex is only 18 but is very mature, on certain things ha, and is appreciative of alot of things. I like that. Alex is a good person, thats all I am saying. Funny as well. Pete-tah is also hilarious and a very stiff model walker. It was tremendous to see him do the "model walk" with his white mans shoulders. If you feel like laughing and having a great time Pete-tah will definitely supply. I also love that he is into acting and is responsible (did yer homework instead of hanging with us, lol kiddin). These two arent "typical guys" and thats why we all like them so much.
Fast forward:
On our weekend journey we ended up meeting with Alex again. Emilys friend Will also made an appearance and decided to join the hike that would take place. Hike, Leah? Yes, a hike. Not far from the college there is this place where you can go hiking. There are trails and such. It was a really great time. Even though I kept saying "I dont like it" and "Im gonna die" it was still a great time. We saw old, rusty, broken down cars and foundations from previous homes that once were on that very spot, stairs that went to no where. Ya know, all the essentials for a good murder movie. My gang and I werent too sure if wed make it out alive. Ha. Alex was our tour guide and he lead us to the most beautfiul spot I have seen since my birth in 1985. I dont get out much, thats all I am saying. There was this huge cliff like spot where you would look out into trees and the sun. Basically that was it, such a nice site to see. Did I mention that I busted my fuckin ass on the way up there. Oh yeah, Leah took herself a little spill. I fell down and rolled back up, because I was on a slant. Thankfully I had caring people with me who asked if I was ok. I appreciated it, but I enjoyed my laughter and dirty white shirt. So we all take pics and sit on the edge of this cliff and just stare out into the sky. It was really relaxing, and so much better then going shopping, or spending money. Honestly, you all should try it. Knowing that you could have a kick ass time with the view of fucking beauty for free, instead of a lame pair of jeans for 29.95 it really was amazing. Fuck jeans. So dare devil Leah wants to go to the way edge, and does. I sat near the "death slide" of the cliff. It was wonderous. I would sit there all day and night if I didnt have a family, friends, and a life. We wanted to start a fire, but no flame source was present. We did spend a good 15 minutes trying to light up an old lighter that was found. No progress was made. So we ate our cold, sticky mallows and had a good time regardless. Emily gives a damn good massage, I might add. Haha. <--- I love laughing at my own writing. So after that great time we decided to head back. It was getting dark and we had a good hour or so to walk. I thought I was going to be raped. Unfortunately, it was a no go. Sorry to disappoint. We head back and its getting really dark, as said. Luckily, thinker Alex brought a flash light. So we had a guide of light. I also enjoyed falling yet again in the blackness of the night. Oh yes, Leah spilled it for the, count um, second time. This time was exciting. I fall, because I made fun of my sister being scared by a possible squirrel or creature in the tree. As I fall I drag someone down with me. I start laughing and wondering who the hell is on top of me. It was dear ol sis. We laugh for a minute, and when we finally realized that weve been on the ground for a minute too long, we get up. I really towed up my knee area, and also my ass. We did make it out alive, obviously. We head back to the campus after some other adventures, and decide to get some grub. Dominos it was. After recieving our meal we headed back to Emily dorm building and went in this room with couches and tables. This is where our eating took place. Just so happens that there is not only one but two pianos in this joint. Immediately I am excited. I love the piano and hope to really nail it one day. Nail in the sense of playing, not fucking. So after we enjoyed our food I decided to hit up the piano. I played a couple songs and Julianna, Emily and I sang one of Juliannas songs. I love doing shit like that, so we had a great time as far as I am concerned. Basically the rest of the night consisted of sitting and chatting on benches, frisbee, and fun times in the dorm room. Sleep was our next activity achieved. The next morning we get up, looking awesome I might add. We put on a lil makeup and head to dunkin donuts. Grab some breakfast and headed over to meet up with Alex and Pete-tah. We sat on one of the benches and enjoyed our DD breakfast. Alex and Pete-tah decided to head over to the student center. We girls finished our lovely food and also decided to head over there once we were done. Emily threw a fucking DD bag at the back of my head. Its all good cause revenge is pure bliss. We go to Breakers and inevidably play pool. As always. Hey its fun. After a few Alex and Pete-tah come in and show us sad ass girls how its done. They were done with their game before we were done, and we were at half point mark when they came in. Its a sad life to lead. Alex and Pete-tah didnt stay long but we gave um big hugs and they left us. We had to stop home to shower and to see our fucking families. Emily, also oursleves, wanted us to come back up later on to "chill". At first moms was like "um no" but then after mowing the lawn, dragging around some garbage, feeding our pets, and some other shit she decided to let us go. We good kids. So we shower and get ready for a fun filled night. We head back up there around 730ish. Meet Emily at work and have the most crazy night. Detail isnt needed. For one, this is a long ass blog and I am way too lazy to go into detail. Two, you arent reading this far into it anyways. So I am done with it.
CCSU has made some great memories for me and my friends. I made a couple new friends and realized that just being with people you like and hanging out is way more fun and fufilling then being online, going out to stores, watching tv, etc, etc, etc. Overall it was a really exciting weekend. I really hope to continue the friendships that have just started and to make more memories as time goes by. End.

September 16th of 04'
What a night.
Oh did you wanna know what happened? I thought you just wanted to ponder. So I guess I could tell you what happened.
Yesterday was a fun filled trip to the city. New York City, that is. Our plan was to go see a Dane Cook show at Carolines on Broadway. We had reservations for an 8pm show but we wanted to get there early so we could eat, etc. Myself, along with my sister Julianna and Tammy, took a 2 pm train down to the BIG APPLE. We all met up with our good friend Jacqui, who kicks major ass by the way. We decided to grab a bite to eat. Two Boots is the place of choice for our consumption. Its a famous pizza joint that names its slices after movie characters. They got real good slices there. After devouring a slice or two we headed over to Carolines to get our seating ticket, to get good seats, for the show. Basically, the earlier you get there for your seating ticket the better seats you will get. So we head down at 5pm (going to a 8pm show, mind you) to get good seats. Turns out the reservation guy, who gives you your ticket, isnt even there yet. The doorman is like, "You are really early for the 8pm show" or something to that effect. I like to mis-qoute people. This doormans name was Brad. At first myself and my crew thought this guy was kind of a dick. So we were like 'whatever' in our heads. Brad said that we had 15 minutes until we could get in. So we waited and took some hella funny pics. By hella funny I mean hella funny to me. So 530ish comes along and we get to get our tickets. We got number 16. 16 is a grand number to have at a sold out show. So we have to waist like 2 hours until show time so we decide to sit at the bar and get some sodas and alcoholic beverages. We meet the bartender. Dan was his name. Dan seemed to be really nice and he had just started this job at Carolines. We talked to him for a while and discussed dreams and the likes. Not really. Then 7pm rolled around and they started seating for the show. We were first in line and had a good ticket number. Hopes were high. Where did we sit? Front fucking row, mother fucker! My stomach was in knots, because I am a flaming fag. We wait impatiently for the show to start. The show finally starts after waiting for what felt like 3 hours. Jay Davis was the host. I think Jay Davis is a funny fuck and he is extremely nice and accomodating. Always a pleasure to see him on and off stage. The next comedian to come up before Dane Cook was a man called Dwayne Perkins. Dwayne was a really funny comic. What else would you expect from a comic? Intellegence? Surprisingly he added intellegence into his comedic bit. I thought he was splendid. A treat. A chocolate treat. Ha! So then it was time for Dane. It was Dane time, folks. Dane comes out and the crowd goes insane. Give me and my sister and friend a slap on teh hand. Nice. Little thing make me happy. Can you tell??? Dane does his set, which included alot of new material and killed it. You could tell he was really having a good time up there. The most energy at a show that I have witness. Was an insanely good time. After the show everyone filed out and got in a line/group to meet and greet Dane. I have done this all before so I knew the deal and wasnt nervous. After about 20 or so minutes it was my turn to say hello and grab a pic. I had him sign my program, and said, "I would say you were awesome, but I am sure you get that all the time" he said "no thats cool, I just had a really great time tonight. Did you enjoy yourself?" I said "Yeah we had a great time" he said "awesome" and thanked me for coming out and I aske dhim for a pic as well he of course accepted.

I then booked it to the ladies room.
After that I searched for my sisters and my friend and they were all talking to the host/comedian Jay Davis. Jay knows who were are from his website and from meeting him a few times before. So we chatted it up for a few minutes and got pics with him as well.

If you fucking laugh at my insane eyes I will kill you. I dont know what I was doing. Maybe I saw a midget, or a penis. I really dont remember. Maybe a midgets penis.
After that we hung around for a while beause we wanted to see if we would be able to get a group pic with Dane and Jay. Dane still had assloads of peeps to get through so we waited for a bit. Once Dane got clear of fans he went near backstage because there was alot of people for the 10:30 show coming in. So Dane goes back stage and we ask Jay if we could get a group pic of Dane and him with us. Jay said he would go see. As we are waiting for Jays response and presence once again who else walks into the club but Alec Baldwin. If you dont know who Alec Baldwin is you really need to sit down and watch Beetlejuice. Or contemplate suicide. Walks right by me and stared into the eyes of my sister Julianna. Alec went straight back stage. Sweet tits right? So after that ordeal Jay comes back out and apologize that Dane is doing a few things including eating before his next set. Understandable, and totally cool. The guys gotta eat, and we did get pics with him individualy. My friend Jacqui said that Jay said to come back later on so we decided to storm the city until then.
We headed over to the broadway plays which always happen to be getting out around 10ish. We stopped at the play called Chicago. Supposed to be a really "big thing" or something. Wayne Brady just so happened to be in the plau and just so happened to be coming out of theatre. So guess who I met? Wayne Brady? YES! Got a pic with his fine ass self as well.
What a night!
Once we all got our pics with the one and only Wayne mother fuck Brady, we walked down the street saying, "wayne fucking brady" like 18 times. We lurked around to see what other plays might be letting out, but none were found. We werent disappointed though.
We headed back to Carolines to see if we would be able to get our group photo after the 10:30 show let out. I know, I know GO THE FUCK HOME! We are determined, what can I say? So we sit at the bar and lovely Jat Davis comes out and is like "hey girls!" he was running around so we didnt talk with him one on one but we catch him a few times and such. While sitting at the bar the opener Dwayne Perkins comes and sits at the bar. Knows my friends name, Jacqui, and starts talking to us. Talking with my friend about comedy and such. It was awesome. WHo does this? We do this.
Then we wait until the second load of fans file to meet dane and wait for them all to clear out. The door man Brad was like "youre back?" we talked ot him for a few and laughed about dumb shit that was funny to us. My sister was like "At first I thought you were a dick" and he was like "what?". Didnt expect that from any of us. Jacqui and I were also dancing at the bar and acting like Ball Room dancing fools. You could see Dane in the background bobbing his head and feeling the music it was funny. Brad busted a white man move and I started laughing. I told him "I saw you bust a move" and he was like "well im black so I got the moves" this is a white kid talking. It was great.
After the room cleared it was me, dane, jay, brad, tammy, jacqui and afew others in the joint. We went up to dane and my sister was like "We think that you think were crazy, but we wanted to get a group pic with you, and we didnt get one at the 8pm show" Dane was like "well now i think you are" we started to laugh. He was like "of course!" so everyone got in the pic and it was like a big family photo. Hot shit.
We were completely thrilled with the night and headed home. Sunday we are going back and it will rule!
Peace babies.

What's New Leah?
New? Besides the recent death of my former job, a new job has been born. That's right kids, more talk of work.
I got a new job about a week ago. Why didn't you tell us fans earlier? I like to keep some "shit" to myself. That was a lie. I just didn't feel the urge to write about such topics. So now I do.
I got a job at a hotel. I am working front desk/guest service agent. So basically I am pushing papers and helping guests with their many problems including check in/check out, ready rooms/housekeeping needs, restaurant guides, directions, credit card/payment issues, extended stays, etc. Dealing with all that while training. I am catching on quick, so I am told. Its a very "smart" job. You have to know your shit to accomplish the tasks that I do in one work day. To some it might be "cake", but to me its a mentally challenging work process. For the moment, at least. I think I will be more comfortable when I am comfortable with the computer system that I must do ALL my work on. Its called System 21. Ooo Ahh. You basically operate all information about and around your hotel in just this one prgram. Its incharge of basically everything. Its a tough program to grasp. There is way too many things to cover. I will get it though, I have no choice.
For the amount of time that I have been presented with I seem to be doing quite well. According to my manager, "You are catching on really quick, and I am so happy with the progress you've made". So I guess that means I am doing well. All I know is in a month when I forget how to do something I better not hear any shit. lolz. "I learned quickly lady, so I should get a month period of 'fuck up' time". That will make up for the training time that was not needed.
All in all it is a decent job. Really. The people seem to be really nice yet really tired. Everyone, at the moment, is working over time. meaning 12-20hrs a day. Nice right? Not me though, I got my two days off and I am so glad to have it. To tell you the truth the transition from my last job to this one has been an eye opener. At this job EVERYONE is helpful and will always lend you a hand or a tip in how to do something. Never an attitude. I have only been there for a week and a half so when I get my first "tude" moment I am sure you will all hear about it. So far so good. Thats the status as of late. Ill tell ya, the costumers and the people I work with are much more understanding, nice and also PATIENT. Unlike my many favorite customers at my last place of employment.
A side note: I have never seen so much paper work in my life. I have been there a week and I already have a huge binder of work done. I hope thats the grunt of it. Alot of fucking trees are dying for one hotel. Imagine the amounts throughout the world.
Like I said before, so far...so good. Ill keep you posted on my exciting life.
New? Besides the recent death of my former job, a new job has been born. That's right kids, more talk of work.
I got a new job about a week ago. Why didn't you tell us fans earlier? I like to keep some "shit" to myself. That was a lie. I just didn't feel the urge to write about such topics. So now I do.
I got a job at a hotel. I am working front desk/guest service agent. So basically I am pushing papers and helping guests with their many problems including check in/check out, ready rooms/housekeeping needs, restaurant guides, directions, credit card/payment issues, extended stays, etc. Dealing with all that while training.
