The Journal of Madeline Pestolesi Intern
01/17/2005 03:42 a.m.
I may become an intern at the Press! My favorite Alaskan newspaper. I put together a packet of stuff I've written and hopefully it will all work out. All the issues I've had about not knowing what I'm goign to do with my degree could be solved. Not only that, but I would have found a job that I ACTUALLY WANT TO DO. I have NEVER had a job that I wanted to do, too many damn jobs in freaking customer service. I never want to serve a customer ever again. If I become a writer, I'll be putting my ideas out there, and that is the most exciting part. I just really hope this works out and I'm not just getting my hopes up only to be disappointed.
God, first weekend of the semester and I have been doing homework non-stop. I'm still not finished. I cannot believe how much reading I have to do this semester. Oh well. Last. Tough. Semester.
I am currently on the edge of my seat with anticipation I am listening to My skin dry out

It's my birthday. The weird thing is, I keep forgetting it's my birthday because all I'm doing is going to class, homework, and errands.
Not that exciting. The drunken celebrating takes place tomorrow.

Tomorrow

Tomorrow's my birthday. I'll be 23. I have class all day, that should be fun. I never know if I should say to people "Today's my birthday" because I don't want them to think I'm fishing for a present or something, but one year, I told people it was my birthday and no one believed me. I thought it was weird. Maybe my professors will take pity on me.
Yeah right

Poop on the bookstore
01/06/2005 08:43 p.m.
I just spent $146 at the UAA bookstore on a total of 3 books. Yeah, 3. It's fucking ridiculous. I was going to order them online, but unless I can find them used, it's not much cheaper with shipping to Alaska added.
School starts in a few days. Shane leaves in a few weeks.
I know my birthday is this month, but January has never beena good month for me. It's still the middle of winter. Oh good god, some idiot frat guy is sitting at the computer next to me humming under his breath. What a bitchy journal entry, I don't know what's wrong with me.
I am currently Bothered

Shane's leaving soon. I like to pretend he isn't, but every time we go anywhere, it's all anyone asks him about. Which, I guess, is how it should be, considering he's going to Central America for TWO MONTHS! I really don't want to think about it. The bright side is that I am going to have a tough semester and at least I'll have more time to study and do really oring horrible things like that. yeah, that's the bright side.
I'll be 23 in 8 days. I was going to have a party, but now I don't think I am. There isn't time to plan and I can't really afford it.
I am currently questionable

One. More. Test.
12/16/2004 08:27 p.m.
One more test and it's freedom! Freedom! No more homework! And I am only working 2 days a week during Christmas break. Which means I will be broke, but at least I'll have some free time, right? I finally posted some new poems, but I'm not sure what I think of them. I have 2 hours to kill before my next class than I'm selling back my ridiculous textbooks. I hate the stupid bookstore on campus, they are such a ripoff. They must make like 80% profit on the damn books they sell. Then they try to pacify angry students who have to spend $300 on books by passing out flyers that say "Why is our markup so high on all our products BESIDES BOOKS? Because we want what's best for you. Bullshit. If they wanted what was best for me, they would stop wasting everyone's time by making unneccessary new editions that only change 2 tiny bits of information in the book. Grrrrrrrrr! Enough bookstore rant. I hope they give me lots of cash, but I doubt it. Crap crap crap. Anyway, I guess that's all for now. I'm getting SHITTY tonight. I hardly ever drink, but when I do, it's outta control. At least the hangover is anyway.
I am currently full of anticipation

so close to the end.
12/13/2004 04:25 a.m.
I feel like I've been going to school for the last 18 years.
Oh wait, I have. I'm ready to finish. I thought I would be exhausted by now because I didn't take the summer off from classes, but I'm getting so close that I am really motivated to finish and do well. I don't want to crap out at the end, well, at least not until after next semester anyway. I am taking such rough classes. Three 400s and two 300s. Shakespeare (no offense to his fans, but may I say "barf?"), Literature of britian II, Poetry (and no, it's not a fun and creative class where I actually get to write poetry, just learn about it), Histry of Criticism (boring and boring), and English internship class, which i am actually really excited about. I want to see if I can become an intern at the Press, my favorite weekly newspaper. I want to try and get a job there after I graduate anyway, I think it would be awesome. I could say fuck in all my articles, and as you writers know, that's what it's all about. I'm just kidding, but it would be fun. I could spread my ideas. My crazy liberal ideas like giving gays rights, not allowing the government to interfere with whatever choice a woman decides to make with her body, maybe saving a little of the environment for the next generation, and, for the love of God, the SEPARATION of church and state.
Anyhow, I'm planning to have some fabulous kareoke fun after finals on Thursday. Drag queens and kareoke-nothing more fun than that.

canceled class
11/30/2004 08:48 p.m.
My class was canceled so now I am in the computer lab wasting time. I could have left, but I got a really good parking spot by the K building (which never ever happens) so I am forced to stay on campus unless I want to talk home. Ok, I should do some homework. Meh.

One month left
11/22/2004 11:46 p.m.
This semester anyway. Then it's three weeks of freedom! I'm gonna party like a rockstar! Shane's leaving at the end of january for 2 months. I try not to think about it now, but I'm gonna miss him so much. I keep going back and forth in my head thinking "it's not that long" but then right over to "oh my god, it's so long." We'll see. At least I'll have plenty of time to study and do boring things like work.
Every single one of my classes next semester are in the same ghetto 60s building on campus. The Eugene Short Building. Actually, I think it's technically a "Hall" now. Whatever. I will continue to call all the UAA buildings by their old names until I graduate. Which should be in just over a year. (keep your fingers crossed, person reading this.)
Can't wait till Brandon comes back. Shane and brandon are coming back from Central America on the same day. That will be a good day. Plus, it'll be march 23rd. Winter will almost be over and 23 is a fabulous number.
I'll be 23 soon. Should be a good year.
I am currently full of anticipation for vaproization good times

Whoop whoop

Here's a classic Rush Limbaugh quote:
"And now the liberals want to stop President Reagan from selling chemical warfare agents and military equipment to Saddam Hussein, and why? Because Saddam 'allegedly' gassed a few Kurds in his own country. Mark my words. All of this talk of Saddam Hussein being a 'war criminal' or 'committing crimes against humanity' is the same old thing. LIBERAL HATE SPEECH! And speaking of poison gas . . . I SAY WE ROUND UP ALL THE DRUG ADDICTS AND GAS THEM." - Rush (oxycontin) Limbaugh, Nov. 3, 1988
Times they are a-changin. I am listening to Shane playing final fantasy
