Annie Green Quit Talking to Me

Annie Green was my very first love,
She walked out and said "Well I've had enough.
I set myself up for these things that won't last,
I hate where it's going, and it's headed there fast


So Annie Green quit speaking to me,
I called once or twice but just got the machine.
I felt like a wreck for the next several months,
'Cause my head can't make sense if my heart never does


I met a nice girl, named Eileen,
When we were together, I forgot about Ann Green.
But time all alone was much harder it seemed,
From all of these dreams, Annie could never leave.


It took me some time, but I think I'm alright,
She left me a note on my window one night.
She told me "I'm sorry I left, I was wrong,"
I said "It's okay, cause I think I've moved on."

Dear Santa:

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire,
Jack Frost nipping at your nose,
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir,
And folks dressed up like Eskimos. 

It's that time of the year. Snowy days, Warm evenings curled up by the fire. Time spent with your family and friends, christmas decorations, treats, countdowns until the special day, Giving gifts, spending the holiday with the ones you love.
I'm going to be materialistic and write a Christmas Wish list. Just like all those years as a little kid, writing to Santa that you've been a good boy or girl all year.


Dear Santa,


How are the reindeer? Are the elves getting good benefits for all the hard work they're doing? I hope so! How is Mrs. Clause? Have you been preparing yourself for a night filled with cookies and milk? and sliding down chimneys? For christmas this year I would like:


-Flight of the Conchords Season 1 and 2
-Purple high heel boots from Payless 6 1/2
-Wonder- Lisa Mitchell
-Dark skinny jeans 25" waist 32" length
-Shelves for my room (So I can put my tea cups up again)
-CD's in general, you can never have too many CD's
-iPhone 4 (This one's reaching for the moon. I'll probably save and get one after the holidays)


That's really all I want, nothing I need, but some things I've been eyeing :)


Love, Ashleen


Now it's time for me to get better, Finish my school projects and get my loved ones some special christmas gifts :) And maybe make some cookies and Christmas cards for others :) I've already made 1 cute Christmas CD with a nice cover :)

Laying on my Deathbed.

I have mono. It sucks. My throat is closing in, I have a constant ear ache, I'm exhausted. I can barely talk, eat, or move. I have literally become a part of my couch since Thursday night. Have only moved like once in the past 4 days, and that was to shower which was desperately needed. I reeked. Plus, it's my last week of classes this week. AKA everything is due, or was due I should say. I got extensions on my work, so I can rest up, get better, and then get my work done. Still, worst time to get seriously sick ever. Since Thursday night, I have watched:

To Catch A Thief
Serendipity (x2)
Beauty and the Beast
Dial M for Murder
Garden State
Bridget Jones: Edge of Reason
101 Dalmatians
Vertigo
Uptown Girls (x2)
2 discs of the 4th season of The OC
Old Cartoons on Teletoon Retro
a ton of miscellaneous TV

I need to find something more productive to do or I'm going to kill myself. All I want to do right now is sleep, probably since I wasn't able to before. and eat. I'm starving, but my throat hurts too much to get anything down. I hate illness. Right now, I'm listening to Teenage Fanclub and browsing the internet for anything interesting.

Me.

I am passionate about what I do and who I am. I know who that is. I am not ashamed of who I am in any way. I am a 5'3 1/2" red head. I'm an Art Major, and I love what I do. I enjoy going to school (most days) I enjoy creating new things. I love taking pictures. I love my tea cup collection. I love books. My favourite book ever, being Jane Eyre- Charlotte Bronte. I also love Jane Austen novels, and Harry Potter, and classics like Roots and A Tree Grows in Brooklyn. If I start a good book, you can bet my nose is going to be stuck in it straight till I finish it. I love movies. I LOVE movies. I could have a movie marathon all weekend and be completely content. I love Disney. Anything to do with Disney. When I'm sick, the best comfort is to pop in Cinderella or The Little Mermaid and snuggle on the couch with my blankie. I also love music. I love the classics like Frank Sinatra, I love the cheesy 70's hits like Rock Me Gently- Andy Kim and The Bay City Rollers. I also love new bands like The Shins, or Woodpigeon, or Said the Whale. I like discovering new songs that make my day when they pop up on my iPod. I love cuddling. I love kisses, I love holding hands, I love having fin, and sometimes getting a little silly with my friends. I love playing dress up. I love decorating and designing. I laugh a lot. Sometimes until I can't breathe. I am a procrastinator. I am lazy. I am a horrible cook, although I am trying to get better at it. I want to please the people I care about. I want to take care of them, and make them feel loved. I don't think everybody I meet is "my friend" I have really close friends. I know the kind of friends that come and bring you crackers and movies when you're sick, the ones that will buy that shirt you love  for you when you have no money. Sometimes I have brain farts, and I'm a bit scatterbrained. Well a lot scatterbrained. I'm not confrontational. I hate fighting. When I do fight with someone I usually cave and apologize first, just to end the disagreement. I don't care about being right, well sometimes I do. Mostly I just don't don't want to fight about it. I'm sometimes cliche. I love to dance, and twirl in the kitchen. I love snow, and snowboarding. Christmas is my favourite season. I hate starting my car in the morning. I AM NOT a morning person. I'm not really a night person either. I'm an "it's my bedtime" person. I like old people. I think they're nice and interesting. I don't feel like I fit in with "the party crowd" I never went to parties in high school, and going to them now, I feel like an outcast. If I feel inferior to someone, I become shy, and barely talk, if I feel comfortable, I am outgoing. I'm very "go-with-the-flow" and not very pushy, Sometimes I don't know what to say in a conversation because I don't want to sound dumb. I'm a good listener, and I can empathize, but I also need time to rant. I barely have any secrets. I trust people. Sometimes too much. I'm awkward. I make weird noises. Sometimes I forget to use people words. I have a lot of things bouncing around in my head. I daydream, I'm always in my own little world.

That's me. Take it or leave it. That's just who I am. I can't change for anyone. Either love me for it or don't.
