Eh,not good.

[Annie]

I thought I'd update y'all again!

Things with Ian have gone bad to worse, we argue everyday over silly things and he keeps trying to get me to take him back, which I can not do.

I was verbally assulted by a staff member in Hollisters (which is some stupid preppy shop, that charges far too much, for those who don't know) I'm going to try and get him fired. I'm working my a$$ off to find a job and he's just taking the p***.

But, good news is...I'm going to Hong Kong next year!!! Yeeey! My Sister-in-Law knows people who live there, so we're staying with them. My family think I want to go there for a holiday, but only KK (and a few real life friends) know my ulterior motive! *giggles*
I might even try and visit where Jackie lives!!

Some more good news is that I've been talking to a guy, he's really made me feel better about breaking up with Ian and he's going to come and see me soon. He seems very nice, but I'm not looking for a relationship, especially if I do go to China next year. He's also into furry stuff! So finally I'll have a real life friend to talk about my drawings with.


So yea, I'm about 50/50 with my mood right now ^^ hehe

so sorry things aren't turning out right now with Ian must really suck. and as to the Hollisters thing, it doesn't suprise me since they stare at me weird when I go with my cousin shopping at any of their stores. I say go for getting him fired, he shouldn't work at a store if he can't deal with people any better than that. he should be nice, and even if anyone does irk him he should just keep his cool and deal.

the Hong Kong trip sounds like you'll have fun lol it'd be wicked if you could actually see Jacki Chan.

[Annie]

Yea, I know what you mean! When I had a job, it was very close to where I went to school, so I saw so many of the kids who used to bully me and even then, I smiled and treated them the way a customer should be treated. I know for a fact I would have been fired, if I had made a comment about a customer.

If anyones wondering what he said, he said "Ew, dirty goth..." as I left the shop.
1. I'm not a goth, not anymore.
2. Shut up. You're not better than me.

And yus I'm so excited! I doubt I will meet him, but if I do, it'll make my life!

[Annie]

Updates!

Well, I officially broke up with Ian a short while ago. I wasn't looking for someone new at all, but I happened to find a lovely guy who lives not far away. Last night he asked me out and since I'd got to know him and I'd met him a few times and my parents adored him...so of course I said yes. So yey! New boyfriend for meeeee <3

But I also had baad news :\ my 'friend' has decided to hate me because I accepted Ren as my boyfriend. She keeps leaving abuse on my facebook page and saying I lied to her. She's saying that I being nasty to Ian by doing this, but I don't want to be miserable and not move on with my life because of him.
However, I know the REAL reason she hates Ren. It's because he doesn't look British. He has Oriental eyes.
If she's going to be like this about him, she should hate me too, I'm not 100% English, infact, I'm LESS English than Ren is!! I'm 75% Scottish and 25% English! While he is 50% English and 50% Malaysian.

I just want her to cut the cr*p and tell me that she's racist, it's so obvious.
I can't wait untill she goes back to uni, then I won't have to see her again for a few months.

She even went as far as to make a comment while he was there!
We were talking about horses and Ren said "You'll have to teach me to tell horses apart, they all look the same to me!"
To which Jade replied "You all look the same to me"
He let it go because he's polite and doesn't want to cause arguments.

I've lost a few other friends over this, who are siding with Ian.
Bah, I'm done with them. My family likes him, my online friends like him, I like him. That's all that matters.

I just feel they've ruined the start of a wonderful relationship :\
I feel most sorry for Ren in all of this, none of them know him and they seem to hate him for some reason and all he wants to do is make a good impression.

---------

In other news, my mother was recently rushed to Hospital after contracting the Norovirus. It didn't look good as it cause complications in a previous operation she'd had, it twisted her stomach around which stopped her digestion.
I honestly thought it was going to turn out for the worst...

But yesterday, I came home with Ren, expecting the house to be empty...and there she was!!! Sitting on the sofa talking with my Dad!! I was sssoooooo happy!! I'd been in a bit of a bad mood all day, but I just wanted to jump for joy!


---------

Job seeking has gone from bad to worse though :\ They're making my apply for jobs that I really don't want to do but huff, I just need some money.

---------

Lastly, I'm going to apply for a driving licence! Scary

[thanigraphics]

Woah, that's a lot of news, I hope your mum is fine. And personally, I think that Jade girl is just jealous (guys with oriental eyes are smexeh ;p )
Aaaand good luck with yer licence!

[Annie]

Haha yea! Ren is much better looking and nicer than her boyfriend hahaha

The internet cut out just as I was applying :\ sooo looks like my licence will have to wait for another day!

[Ushujaa]

hope the the drivers licensing goes well, that's really exciting that you found someone new... even if your friend doesn't like his eyes, as long as your happy with him then that's all that matters...

[Annie]

Woohoo! I got my license I'll be starting lessons as soon as I can! I'm so excited! My goal is to learn before next september, so I can visit Ren at uni.

--------------------------------------

Job hunting is still not going too well :\ all the jobs they're trying to get me to apply for are in banks and other dull places like that *yawn* I need something more interesting than that. I'm not one of those mindless idiots that you find in the Job Centre.

--------------------------------------

Everything is going great with Ren I'm glad I've found somebody like him <3
However, his Dad is starting to become a real issue and I know he's trying to break us up.

Ren smokes, which really hurts me because I know the long term damages it'll cause him and his Dad knows how much I hate it, but his Dad keeps buying him tabacco and not helping him quit at all! I don't know what's going through his mind.
His Dad also said we should stop seeing each other so much (I see him for a few hours each week), so Ren can study hard and get good grades, which I respect, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't be in a relationship!! Uuurg, I don't know what to do :\
I also learned he often really seriously loses his temper sometimes and has made Rens poor mother cry on several occations.
We've come to the conclution that he just doesn't feel love anymore which is very sad indeed.

------------------------------------

Also, sorry for being so inactive! I've had a lot of stuff to do and don't really have all that much time.
@Moka, I'll try and get those paw prints done ASAP!

[Simba]

sweet, you should always learn to drive. it's freedom, and you never know when the occasion might arise where you NEED to drive. I'm guessing it works a bit differently over there. here we have learner's permits, and after you've had driver's ed and completed the hours you get your license.

sorry to hear that his dad is being like that. you'd think he'd be happy for you guys, or at least think more of his son's health. I know some parents accept their children using tobacco products fine, but no one should push it on them all the worse like that. and that's not like much time, most of the couples I know spend pretty much ALL their spare time together. hope it's not that, it would be truly sad to have someone you know not feel love anymore (I think I've gotten an idea of that lately).

and to the older news I've missed, it's wonderful your mother is doing better sounds like she had it rough there, it's so fortunate she's recovered enough to return home.

it's so very stupid that this Jade person has to be like that. all the different traits people have are what make them cool racism frustrates me sooo much, especially such ridiculous sentiments as everyone of a certain race looking alike. I wish you luck dealing with her.

[thanigraphics]

his father is a real *insert PG rated word that doesn't traumatize people below 13 years of age*
but I'm sure you two are both strong enough to keep your relationship going. You're totally right about the smoking, but quitting is quitre hard. I'm a terrible smoker myself, and I've tried to quit several times. So I'd say, keep pushing him to stop and show him pics of lungs affected by smoking to scare him off smoking XD
Good thing you have yer driving lessons and yer mom is doing better, keep those in mind!
