June 30: Written Whilst Crapping
It’s around 9 pm here on my first day. How was it, you might ask? Well, I haven’t slept for 2 days, I’m in the same clothes I wore yesterday, I’m home sick, and miss Alex terribly…other than that, not bad. This, however, seems like the kind of place to stay a day or two, not three weeks.
It’s terribly cold here. It feels like November back home. Scotland is an odd place. The roads are odd and the signs are worded in humorous ways. If I had to sum up Scotland in one sentence, here it’d be:
“Imagine a world where everything you know was invented by someone else and looks totally different.”
Their toilets make running water noises for five minutes after flushing. Showers require some switch-juggling in order to use. Cars and all associated things are backwards.
I nearly burned myself earlier when I assume the hot & colt taps would also be reversed. What a dolt I am. But I disgress.

June 10: Trash Slash Old
erg. today sucked.
i didn't go to school. i have lost all interest in it and it shows; i've missed 4 days in the last 2 weeks, that's, like, 60% attendance. i hope my marks don't suffer because of it, although they probably will..
i had to meet my mother in halifax today to get our passports done. i picked up my cousin darryl and jetted off, much behind schedule. we did manage to stop at walmart to get blank cds [he ended up getting a reboot (the crappy tv show) video] and at esso to get gas, though. oddly enough, we arrived early, and sat in the passport office for an hour waiting for my mom. then she stormed in, extremely and very publicly angry, because i was supposed to meet her out front. i don't recall that, it was all just a miscommunication. anyway, she was super pissed. blah.
anyway..uhm..i'll update again soon. :)
12:05am
yes, i realize, technically it's tomorrow, but i'll keep the entry i did, erm, four hours ago up anyway. it wasn't much of an entry.
anyway, i have been waiting for this time. things seem so much purer at night. i have school tomorrow but it's the last day, i doubt much work will be done. i'm still a bit pissed that they're giving out report cards the day AFTER i leave for scotland, i mean..just one day, and they can't give it to me early. that makes me angry.
and alex called me tonight, and she was quite upset. she had a bad day and her parents were being crappy. so i let her cry on my shoulder. it makes me so good to know that someone loves me. or needs me at least. i love her so much. i don't think she knows it. anyway, she's happy 99.9% of the time, well, when i'm around anyway <g> so i didn't want to let her down tonight. i did my usual thing. i made her laugh. i always do; i hope she doesn't think i don't care..
i'm still reading adrienne's old journals. i wish i had known her then. it's incredible; she was so sad, so very suicidal. i wish i could have helped her, but at least everything is okay. i'm glad she's a better person now, happier, not better, i suppose. i feel close to her, yet we've never exchanged words. odd..
anyway, i'm feeling shitty. i want to go. later.
