Your Score: Proteus


0% Extroversion, 46% Intuition, 72% Emotiveness, 33% Perceptiveness



Changing your shape to suit your situation, you are most like Proteus. More than anything else, you need to be wanted. You have a very strong work ethic, and are very adaptable, but are often unappreciated. You develop very strong personal loyalties, and will often maintain these personal relationships at a great expense to yourself. Convention and conformity are very important to you, and you find deviations from either to be very inappropriate. You tend not to burden those around you with your own problems.

The Wild Rose

Random Brutal Love Dreamer (RBLD)

The Wild Rose

shmolorful, but unpicked. You are The Wild Rose.

Prone to bouts of cynicism, sarcasm, and thorns, you excite a certain kind of man. Hoping to gather you up, he flirts and winks and asks you out, ultimately professing his love. Then you make him bleed. Why? Because you're the rare, independent, self-sufficient kind of woman who does want love, but not from a weakling.

You don't seem to take yourself too seriously, and that's refreshing. You aren't uptight; you don't over-plan. Romance-wise, sex isn't a top priority--a true relationship would be preferable. For your age, you haven't had a lot of bonafide love experience, though, and this kind of gets to core of the issue. You're very selective.

The problem is them, not you, right? You have lofty standards that few measure up to. You're out there all right, but not to be picked up by just anyone.

Swayzed

Registered for classes for next semester already. Got Principles of Accounting and Farm Business Management. The tricky part is FBMngmnt is from 12:20 to 1:15pm...Monday thru Friday. Which means I'm gonna have to do some sweet talkin' to see if Cindy'll let me take my lunch break at the same time throughout the week - and give me a five minute grace period. The accounting class isn't so bad - Tuesday and Thursday from 6 to 8pm. But then again that might not work either since I'm supposed to be working until 6 anyways. Oh boy. Back to the drawing board. I just don't want to take the 6 to 9pm class that's once a week. Or is it 6 to 10? Yikes either way. There's only so long a girl can focus, y'know?
In other news, turns out I was reading Justin's signals wrong - go figure, right? Guess he 'just doesn't want a relationship right now' but it's 'not just not with [me], with any girl.' Cuz that makes it all better. Oh well.
Watched the latest episode of Supernatural. Ah, Sam and Dean goodness. Almost makes me want to watch the rest of the series again. Which reminds me, I should probably get that back to Liz...sometime.
Found out the kitties have fleas. God knows how they got 'em, cuz they're all inside cats, except Spike might've brought 'em in and I just didn't treat him in time. Another 50 bucks outta next paycheck. Least I've got a treatment left over for Sadie, but I still gotta treat Sam too just to be safe.
Started working at City earlier this week. Cindy was telling me I would have to work at West every weekend for a month or so because one of the girls who work out there part-time up and decided to take a month off over Christmas break. Bitch. And I flat-out told Cindy I wouldn't do it because I'm not the only one who could work out there - Terri's trained to sub out there too, and why can't we train the new girls to sub too? Thankfully, Cindy agreed and so, hopefully, I'll just have to work one weekend out there instead of FOUR.
Grandpa emailed everyone and said David and his family are coming up around Christmas - yay! I haven't seen Cayden in a long time and I'm sure Karen's really excited to see her little man.
Alright, off to bed. I don't have to wake up extra early tomorrow, but we all know I like my sleep.

Update

Okay, so I'm still living in Des Moines, but I'm now in my own house. I've got two dogs, four cats and eight kitten fosters. I'm now full-time at the Main location of the Animal Rescue League and work at the front desk, handling intakes, adoptions and phones. I'm taking one night class and two online classes at DMACC, but still don't know very many people outside work - but most of the people I know through work are my age for a change!
I was dating a guy for awhile this summer, but that didn't go anywhere. His dad lives next door and he just started coming over when his little brother and sister did (they like playing with the dogs). But his form of breaking up with me made me lose any respect for him.
I've had a few run-ins with unpleasant customers, the most serious one resulting in vandalism on my car - but you can only see it from a certain angle, and if you're really looking. I now know I can handle euthanasia on a day-to-day basis, but it still looks like it'll be a long time until I get into the medical department. But the people I work with respect me and I have a hell of a lotta respect for them. I got really lucky when it comes to most of my co-workers.
My car's on the fritz; I recently had to pay an arm, a leg and three toes to replace the alternator, and I haven't yet gone in to replace the power steering pump (again). But it's not as big a deal as it could be, so I'm not too concerned, yet.
It seems my neighborhood has 'discovered' me and my profession. Several strays have showed up at my place in the past few months, and I'm pretty sure most of them did not find their way to my house by sheer coincidence. (Hence the five extra fosters that have joined the original three.)
Well, it is now 11 pm and I've gotta get to bed. I've got the day off tomorrow, but I watch the kids next door for an hour or so in the morning before their bus comes because their parents have to be at work early.

Stupid People Make Dean Sad

Anyone ever have one of those days where all you want to do is drown yourself in the shower? And it has to be a hot shower, because god knows if it was cold, you'd go postal.
That's pretty much what yesterday felt like to me. I was getting my books, figuring out my training schedule from work, painting my room for the second - or was it the third? - time, and watching as my head spun off my shoulders and exploded.
And then I went to see World Trade Center with my aunt and a friend of her's. I'd recommend it, but only if you've dealt with the harsh reality of it all. I was worried about seeing it, because of the impact 9/11 had on me, but I was okay. And the movie is very well done. So if you're up for it, I'd go see it.
Steph and I did a really cursory cleaning of the house today. Okay, actually I cleaned my bathroom and Steph cleaned her bathroom and her room and vacuumed the house. You do the math. But seriously, if we don't keep after the dog hair in this house you'd think that the house itself was shedding. There's so much of it! And most of it is from Snickers!
I swear, that dog does not stop shedding! Honest to god, I was just outside not half an hour ago and brushed him for a good twenty minutes at least, and when he finally got sick of it and took off, the last chunk of hair I'd pulled out of him was the same size, if not bigger than, the first chunk. It comes out in tufts too - the most effective way to remove these is just by grabbing them with three fingers and pulling them out. I'm pretty sure it doesn't hurt him at all and for some reason the shedding comb doesn't work worth a damn on them.
Steph and I started talking about Josh again yesterday. She pretty much knew most of the backstory, because when I primarily moved in, I'd mentioned that he was my tenative date for Dad's wedding. But we were in the car, headed to Sherwin Williams for paint that would actually stick to the concrete floor in my room, and I don't remember how, but it all just kind of spilled out of my mouth. Practically everything too. The amazing things he's said to me, how I feel about him, how everyone thought I was such a dork because I thought my feelings for him were my own little secret, when it seems in actuality the entire world could know just by looking at us...and how sick it makes me feel every time I wonder if he's actually going to call me.
How much of an idiot I feel like for letting him have the opportunity to break my heart all over again. Shame on you if you fool me once, shame on me if you fool me twice, right? Well, what happens the third time? Do we both explode into flaming balls of fire because we're both so stupid that the Powers That Be decide we can't be allowed to effect the planet any more, much less have a normal, quiet death?!? Cuz if that's gonna happen, it'd be real great if it could happen before I start class tomorrow. You know, if we're not on a schedule or anything.
I'm holding my breath, just waiting for the bomb to drop. He won't call and tell me that he doesn't think it'll work out, because the man doesn't know how to pick up a phone and dial, I swear. He just...won't call. I won't know when he's moved into his dorm. I won't know when his first game is, and then when Liz calls to see if I'm going, I won't have any clue what she's talking about, cuz he won't have told me.
So when I realize what she's saying, and realize what that means, I'll very calmly tell her that I'm working, or that I have homework and won't be able to make it to this one...maybe next time. Then I'll hang up the phone, and if my standard reaction to bad news is what comes next, I'll put it out of my mind. I'll throw myself into something else and try my damndest not to think about it, because if I think about it, I know I won't be able to stop. And if I can't stop, I'll lose it and all my hard work, everything that I've sweat and bled for the past few weeks will go to waste because I won't be able to work, I won't be able to concentrate in school, I won't even be able to summon up the emotion to care either.
But hey, at least I'll know for sure. Right?

Mehslumflah

I HATE SCHEDULING!!!!!!!!!!!

That being said, allow me to elaborate.
Okay, so I finally get all my classes registered for and whatnot (the final FINAL schedule of such has been revised from my previous post. What is up now is the actuality.) and then I get a call from ARL as to when my training is. Every night next week for at least two and a half hours - then there's the real humdinger on Tuesday from 12:30 to 8:30 and the fun one on Saturday that's 8 to 6:30 - I have training. Next week is also my first week of college. As a freshman. I'm looking at all this, thinking I'm going to be fine if I just take it one mind-ruining step at a time. Then my aunt Steph looks at it and shows me the reality with a "Oh no, you can't do this!"
She was right.
So I dropped another class. I am now at 12 credits. And will survive.
Oh yeah, and we painted my room's floor. Again.

Well, I'm finally moved to Des Moines, for good...well, for the next two years or so anyways.
All my crap is either sitting out in the back seat of my car or down in my room, or in the basement and hasn't quite made it to my room as of yet. That's what I need to do today - actually move in.
I had my meeting with two ladies at ARL this morning, and it went great. They seem like really cool people, and though I won't actually be working with either one of them, I have a feeling the people I will be working with will be awesome too.
My hours (if I do get the job, it's not official yet) are Fridays 4-8:30, Saturdays 10-6:30 (I think. It may just be 6.) and Sundays 9-5:30. So I only work the weekends, and I'm hoping to all the gods that Josh's games aren't ALL during these times, otherwise I'm gonna feel absolutely terrible. I didn't go see any of his games this summer, and I felt like a bad friend, and now I'll feel even worse if I won't get to see any of his college games.
Oh yeah, for the record, we are now, I believe the term is "on-again". Yeah, I know, I know.
But now I have a whole list of crap to do and I'm not really sure why I'm on the computer (and have been for the past hour and a half), but oh well. List is as follows (because I know you're all dying to hear it.):
- Get off computer
- Wait...find directions to and from the following:
-Wells Fargo
-Department of Motor Vehicles
-Place where I can vacuum out my car (open Dorito bag = badness)
-Cosmetology school cuz I need a haircut and they do it cheap
- NOW get off computer
- bring remainder of stuff in from car
- park car back out on street
- put bookcase together
- drag other boxes into room
- clothes in dresser
- books on bookcase
- call/email Gen & Clarence
- somewhere amongst these duties, call Liz and see if she would like to help or just come over and hang out.
Bugger.

Easy-going College Student by Day -- Animal Sanctuary by Night

So I just had my interview for the kennel technician at Animal Rescue League, and it went SUPER good. Only problem is with scheduling, which I hope isn't going to be a real big problem, cuz I want this job so bad. I mean, it's perfect. I get to work with animals, it's close enough to Steph's house that I'm not gonna get lost, or waste gas getting there, and I GET PAID TO WORK WITH ANIMALS!!!! I mean, are ya kiddin' me?!?! It'd be amazing!
See, a woman called me from DMACC like half an hour ago and told me that I may be able to get into the Vet Tech program this semester because some spots opened up, but I need to take this qualifying exam and she wants the spots filled by next Wednesday. So I have to call the assessment team, get a quick spot for the next Biology exam and then when I pass that, if I get into the program, my course schedule is gonna be all rearranged and stuff. I gave the lady who interviewed me at ARL my current class hours, telling her what times I would be available to work, but that may all change in the next week or so.
Bugger me sideways.
But in other news, Bear and Snickers are FINALLY starting to get along. Snickers is my aunt's dog and he and Bear were getting into little scuffles this week. And nobody got hurt, but some pretty heavy snarling and barking was goin' on. I was worried that Bear might continue to bully Snickers and thats a big problem, cuz this is Snickers' house and I was afraid I might have to send Bear home.
But I was sitting out in Steph's backyard, talking on the phone with Dani - who's freaking out by the way, cuz she got her loan, and is now leaving for England in FIVE DAYS!!! - and Bear started chasing Snickers around the yard. I was about to step in and tell Bear off, when all of a sudden, both dogs practically turned on a dime, and Snickers was chasing Bear! And they kept doing that for a few minutes, started play-wrestling a little bit, and no aggressive barking or nipping...I wanted to jump up cheering!
So I'm this close to getting an awesome job and my dog isn't going to rip my aunt's dog to shreds. Yay!

The Life and Times of the Confused and Restless

Quick Recap: Josh and I made out, he decided we shouldn't be together, gave me half a dozen reasons that all turned out to just be a cover because he was actually just nervous of a change in our relationship.
So we were gonna try again...And that was a week ago, and the last that I've heard from him. We fooled around a bit that night, and now I feel like a whore. Nothing really serious happened, but I still don't know what to think.
He's telling me one thing, I'm getting a completely different vibe from him...and my brain is telling me to GET OUT NOW!!!
Then there's the whole part where he's driving me absolutely crazy. We used to talk about motherfuckin' EVERYTHING together, and now I'm finding out important stuff that's happened to him from the friggin' newspaper! (He's in sports and is pretty damned good too, so him being in the paper is normal.)
I used to get excited when he was around, and it wasn't the "I wonder what's gonna happen with us!" excited, it was the "hey Josh is here" excited. Now I feel like I'm gonna throw up whenever I see him, and it doesn't help that he's avoiding me.
I want to be with him. Kissing him is amazing and lots of fun, and talking with him is as great as it's always been. Or at least it was. Now I can't even get him to call me back, much less talk about anything worthwhile.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

So I think we've morphed. First we were the 'third hips' of each other, then we became SLIGHTLY more dignified when we got the Three...no, four...no FIVE Musketeers together, and now we've thrown that all out the window and have assumed the roles of the Mutant Ninja Turtles. Wow.
Take the quiz:
Which Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle are You?

Donatello
You've been described as 'the brains' of your family or group of friends. You're the natural born, 'Mr. Fixit'. You're also considered the most reserved, preoccupied with your own little thoughts and ideas. But that doesn't mean you don't hang with your family and friends! But, you still find it easy to get lost in your own thoughts...daydreaming often. You'd rather talk things out than fight. You long for a day when there's nothing but peace in the world, and when you can finally rest with your own thoughts. Violence is something the world could completely live without. One of your labels may be, 'true to blue friend'. You're strong at heart and powerful at mind.

Senioritis to the 75th degree

If I am in this house much longer, I will wind up killing my mother. No joke.

She never stops telling me how worthless I am and how much I could improve if I only tried. I can't even count the number of times in the last few months or so that she's told me to go to hell, or even damned me - straight to my face. Yeah, and she's trying to figure out why I'm depressed. Uh...duh?

I can't stand listening to this much longer. And I thought maybe she'd lighten up a bit since I'm graduating in a month or so and she won't see me accept for maybe once a month or so...No such luck. If anything - no scratch that, she HAS gotten worse. I just don't know what to do anymore.

I do not want to end up like Tony where I am constantly trying to look for ways to be away from home, just so I don't have to see my family. Cuz if I do, there'll be fighting. I DO NOT want to be like that, but these days that's what it's getting to be like. And now that I have a car, it's a lot easier, and as long as I keep my phone turned off, she'll never find me. But I can't just do that every day. I shouldn't have to.

Liz, Angie, I know you guys are probably looking at this and going, "Katy, you're such a drama queen. I would kill to have your mother," or whatever it is you say when you think I'm exagerating about how my home life is. Go right ahead. I can't stop you.

I also can't prove you wrong. But I really don't have to. I'm unloading right now to a computer screen for Christ's sake. Fuck.

So...

I'm way behind in school, Liz is really sick and her dad's blowing it off, my place of employment is moving and my boss is driving me nuts, colleges send me ten letters a day, all demanding that I go to their school, I still don't have the money to buy a car or an apartment, Bear pooped on my bed yesterday, my little sister gets worse by the minute it seems and my mother is planning on hospitalizing me today because I was so close to cutting this morning it was scary. For her, that is. Me, I can't really feel anything but stress right now so fear is a far-off dimension unknown to this female's psyche.
...you know.
Just to fill you in.

Student Council's a bitch

That's right. You read the title correctly. I mean, don't ask me why i'm MAD at student council, cuz i'm not really. It's just that the stupid fundraisers they come up with have managed to seriously de-construct the realm of stability that i've managed to build up over the past couple of months. We - as in OHS students - filled out a survey a couple of weeks ago, to see who we were 'compatible' with. The surveys were analyzed and all that jazz, and today we were able to pay $2 for our results - overpriced, I know. Apparently they didn't get enough last year. Whatever.
So I go and give 'em my two bucks cuz I could use a bit of entertainment, and what do they give me? In the top 10 guys I'm compatible with is none other than my ex-boyfriend and the guy that I asked out a month ago who didn't even have the balls to say no, just said yes and never spoke to me again. I didn't get a chance to see what other shit was written down because I exploded with, "You've gotta be fucking kidding me!" and Liz wanted to see my sheet, so she grabbed it and took it with her to Lifework Prep. Now I'll be lucky if it's not been spread through her entire class by the time the bell rings. Which means - now I don't know who's all in her class - that people that I would rather they didn't hear about it, probably will. Same thing happened two weeks ago, Levi - guy I like - and Kyle - dick who couldn't say no - are in her first hour class, they drilled her on me, and apparently she spilled all the beans. I don't really know what happened, but...It seems like my friends can't keep their mouths shut sometimes. Angie did everything BUT tell Levi that I liked him, and Liz seems ready and willing to tell stuff about me to three or four guys in her class. I just don't like it that they do that kind of stuff.
And don't even get me STARTED on the guys who couldn't just ask me this stuff, and just HAD to go around and ask my friends before they even were honest with me.
At least Levi...wait, I don't have to defend him. He's a big boy. In the truly unlikely event that he reads this, he can either do something about it or not. He doesn't need a keeper and he already has a mother.

Am I Just Unreachable?

Someone told me today that a close friend of mine was suffering from anxiety disorder. This I was well aware of, but I didn't know the severity of her condition. It seems that her anxiety level was off the charts, she's severely depressed and needs serious help as well as people to make her eat, because she normally won't on her own.
I've been best friends with this girl the entirety of my highschool career. For those of you who don't know me, that's the majority of three years. She is one of the two or three reasons I'm alive today to tell you this, and I found out about the severity of her condition through someone else. The only way I found out she had even been diagnosed was because another person who isn't that close to either of us brought it up to me, thinking that I would know what was going on. I was clueless and it was like a shot to the chest that I had to find out about this from someone else.
I always knew something was wrong with her, but she always would blow it off whenever we tried to bring it up, and so after three years of hearing that it was no big deal, she's always been like this, I started to believe it. I mean, who's better to know what's going on with oneself, than the actual person?!? I kept telling her she needed to get help, she always blew me off. Her parents never let her do anything fun for herself, and it's like she just keeps getting worse and worse, but no one will ever DO anything about it!
And so you ask, why didn't I do anything? I did. The only other thing I could have done was drag her into one of my therapy sessions and sit on her until she talked. Which does no good, I've tried the sitting thing.
The thing that is really bugging me is that it took her this long to do something about it. And she's acting like I don't matter by not telling me shit.

Images and school in general

Right so, now is Computer Science and I'm pretty much fighting tooth and nail to get the whole overlaying of images concept through my brain. Okay, rather the overlaying of more than two images. It's vastly confusing. Liz...HELP!!!
