Update on survival

Sun, 07 Dec 2008 01:28:32 GMT

Well...so its been a long time since I last updated on here.
I apologize for that. Even though there really aren't any people who actually read my posts anymore.
Ah well.
I might as well keep an update in here.

Stuff that's happened...My grandmother passed away two days after Christmas in 2007. We miss her, but know that she's now in heaven and having the time of her life. The lucky lady.

I finished Massage school, and have been practicing a bit on and off. I NEED TO GET A FULL TIME JOB DOING MASSAGE! If anyone knows any places that are hiring in the Belton, Grandview area or near there let ME KNOW PLEASE!

I still work at the library. I still get paid not that much money.

Here's something new, as of 2008 I have started working the polls as an electoral judge. It's interesting, sort of fun. The last election, was HECTIC! Seriously. We were really busy during the morning hours. then it trickled off to a lull and that was about it. Thank goodness.

:P

I still draw a lot every week, as well as read, and play around on the computer. I have gotten into roleplaying some drow characters. That's a lot of fun. I got to come up with one's image, and the other two's personalities and kinks. It's a lot of fun. I may have to share them with you all on here soon. I've accomplished reading 108 books this year. And...I didn't start until the second half of the year. Which means...I could have probably easily read 200 books if I had started earlier. Pretty freaking awesome for me. I used to read like 300 or more when I was in school and had the summers off. tsk tsk. Ahh the old days. How I miss them.

If I could get a job that had something to do with reading...that would be awesome.
Maybe I should look into that. hmm. Like a fact checker for book writers or maybe a publisher's assistant. I bet I could do those jobs pretty easily. I really would like to get into the literary area. It would make it a little easier for me when I do finally finish my trilogy. Sadly, I haven't really worked on it much this year. What with all the roleplaying I've been doing. Not to mention the journal entries and other stuff for them.

Well..until later.
I really should get to work on some art commissions from gaia, art trades, freebies, and of course my latest RP replies.
Hasta la vista amigos!

outside comfort

*sigh*

This really bites.
I'm stuck house/pet sitting tonight. With no way of accessing gaiaonline and talking to all of my friends. It's kind of sad. I guess I should work on some other stuff. Like writing or drawing.

God knows I've got several projects I need to complete. And I do have to get up early tomorrow. So, I guess it's a good thing I'm stuck away from the website. Though I did figure out the password for the computer. So that's a good thing. Otherwise I wouldn't have been able to get the internet working.

The only thing that I really don't like about their house, is that it smells like dog. I'm really not used to living with a dog. Especially one that's this stinky. And two cats who stink up the downstairs.

*sigh*

I guess I'll post this and then get some dinner. If only I could find some people to talk to on my other websites that I can get on. Then I'd be perfectly fine. Like Zantarni, or Menewsha.

If anyone's part of those sites, my username is Minyaagar on Zan, and Immortaleyes on Menew. Feel free to pm me sometime.

I'm usually not this boring...I apologyze.

Hello, goodbye and everthing inbetween

Fri, 31 Aug 2007 17:55:46 GMT

Well, life is going great so far.
When my sisters aren't causing tons of drama in the house.
Last time they stopped over they got into a big fight with my parents, pretty much because they were trying to manipulate mom and grandpa into getting what they wanted. Which, was to drive the van.
I can understand why my mom wouldn't want them to drive the van. First, what if there was an accident? Then my grandfather and my mom would have no way of getting around. Not to mention having to rely on my dad's van, which is not being so reliable nowadays.
Second, she hasn't really driven the van before, so she's not really used to it.
Third, she could have taken the offered ride instead of insisting that she was to drive the van.
I guess it doesn't really matter anymore.
It just makes me mad that they would get so caught up in something so trivial and start swearing out my mom because she didn't get what she wanted.
Then there's the other stuff going on.
Ugh, if there was a way I could get out of this place, it would be great.
I should go on a vacation in October.
Maybe my uncle would be up for bringing me to Washington like he suggested earlier this year.
That would be great. I love the weather uo there.
And I'd have time away from the rest of the family. I've never really had a vacation on my own before, I bet it would be loads of fun.
Adios for now,
A. Lange

Vacation Update

Sun, 17 Jun 2007 22:34:35 GMT

So, its been three weeks or more since I last wrote. In that time I have been to Nebraska,South Dakota, Idaho, Washington, Oregon, California, and now Nevada. The longest we stayed anywhere was in California with my grandmother Lue. We stayed there for five glorious days. It was really nice and cool in Eureka, CA. I kind of miss it, now that we're in Nevada. Ugh. The high is about 110 or so during the day and it only goes down to 98 during the night and people here say its not hot. Not.

Anways, the trip has been pretty awesome. Its been great seeing family. I've been in my Uncle Mike's house for near 24 hours now. Its nice, with the air conditioning. And no one has said that I have to go with them if I don't want to. So that's nice. I took the time to type up the stuff I had written for my story while driving to Washington. I'm going to try and write some more. But it probably took me about two hours to type up the 12 pages that I had written. I think its because I haven't typed that much in a very long time and I'm just not used to it. My hands are starting to cramp up as I type this even. I really need to fix that.

I'm pretty mad right now, because my gaia account may have been hacked. I know the password that I am trying is the right one, but its not working. So I think someone hacked it and changed that password. Its pissing me off. Because now I can't remember the email address that I used to sign up for gaia for my main account. Ugh. If I could remember the passwords for my yahoo account, maybe I would be able to see if its that email account. I guess I should have brought all my passwords with me. Oh well, I guess I'll just have to wait until I get home to figure everything out.

Adios!
A. Lange

huzzah!

Tue, 22 May 2007 21:43:34 GMT

I decided to drive up with my brother Yasha on Friday, instead of going with everyone else in the van. I thought it would be too crowded. And this way, Yasha and I can spend the 7 hours bonding or something. I just hope we don't drive each other crazy or something. And that we get to stop once inbetween.
So, because I'm waiting to leave, I will be at home all by myself and
its going to be loads of fun!
I'm going to do some fun stuff in that time.
Like, walk around in my pjs all morning long. And eat loads of tuna and carrots. Should be good.
:)
So, I'm off to dinner.
Bye all!
~Amari

Oh yes, I forgot to add that I sent in all the paperwork to get my passport today. I'm hopeful that I will get it in time to leave for Africa come October. I am believing that I will be able to save enough money to go to Nairobi Kenya with my church for their wold conference.

Looks like its been a long time since I last updated in here.
If you didn't know, I will be going away for a month long vacation with my parents and my grandfather. My brother Yasha is going to join us half way through when we're in Washington. He's going to fly up on June 5th I believe.
Anyways, just so you know, I probably won't have the time to update this, unless there are computers at the hotels we stay in.
Most likely there won't be.
I look forward to spending time with my family, and getting to see different places.
And the trip should be fun, though god knows I'm going to miss my bed terribly!
Until later,
A.Lange

Great News

Fri, 09 Mar 2007 17:54:43 GMT

I will be going in to Curves on Monday to talk to the manager about possibly going in and giving chair massages to the women who come in. Its very exciting for me, since its very close to where I live and I am very much wanting to get working doing what I love to do. I think that I will most likely get the work, but let's be praying, okay folks?

In other news, I will again be visiting Harry's Mug tonight at 7 pm to give free chair massages.
I will be taking tips from whomever chooses to give them. All tips from the Coffee Bar concert events will be going towards the Africa Missions trip that I really want to go on this year with my church. I still have to find out how much it costs and when the dates are.

Anyways Harry's Mug is located at 12222 Blue Ridge Ext. in Grandview, MO., so stop on by to check out the band Brakedown and the free chair massages if you can!
God bless, have a wonderful day folks!

The week'

Mon, 26 Feb 2007 16:52:41 GMT

Nothing much is going on.
I went and paid for my business license for Grandview. I should be getting it sometime this week.
Unfortunately I found out that I can't have a business out of my home. But I can do an outcall service. So that's probably what I will be doing.
I will be at Faith Ministries Bar Concerts on friday night this week. I will be giving away free chair massages if anyone is interested, stop on by. The Concert starts at 7:00 pm. I should be there at that time or earlier.
I'll probably be doing that every now and then to get some publicity. I'll have to put this up on my business website. http://holyhandso.tripod.com/
Other than that, I am looking forward to going on vacation with my folks and my grandfather come June.
I don't know if my sisters will be going or not. I hope that one of them does. Though, since Joey just got a job, I don't know if she'll be able to get that much time off in a couple of months or not.
It would be prety boring without them.

I am going to go out and talk to different businesses, like gymns and Curves about coming in and doing some massage work on their clients. I want to work for myself, so I have to be very forward and driven to get work. I can't live at home forever. So I need to start getting more work.
I intend to be able to move out by the begining of next year. God willing, I will.
~Amari

Must get off....

Mon, 05 Feb 2007 20:25:05 GMT

the computer!
I've been on for quite a long time as it is.
I need to go start dinner. I'm making sloppy joes, tatertots, jalepanos poppers, and green beans. Sounds good, huh?

So I got my chair on Saturday. I'm pretty happy about that. I also got my subscription at DA today. that was really really nice!
I'm still working reading House of Chains. Those darn long ass books, they take forever to read!
I finished my laundry, and I started cleaning up my room.
Oh, and I was able to knit five hats and a pair of fingerless gloves this past week. And I drew a bunch of new art lately, you can see them up on my DA account.
I've been pretty busy.
Adios,
must go now.

My extremities are freezing off

Tue, 16 Jan 2007 21:40:23 GMT

At least that's what it feels like. I have the space heater on, but it doesn't really help that much.
I've been meaning to write something today. I guess this is my writing for the day. Unless I work on my Janjucca story some more. Yeah well, I couldn't just trash the story. I'm going to write myself out of the problem I made for myself.

So, I figured out that I can upload audio stuff of myself. I may try to figure out how to make some audio stuff and add it up here. Well I'm going to go before my fingers freeze up on me. It was 2 degrees this morning in good old Missouri. Yeah. I want to go to Jamaica until the coldness blows over!
Have a nice week folks.
