About Me!

Hiya! I'm Jenny, 22, living my best life in rainy but beautiful Vancouver, BC.
I work parttime at a video rental store and spend the rest of my time
scrapbooking, watching Buffy, and making friendship bracelets with my roommate Tara.
Life is too short to not eat Lucky Charms straight out of the box while dancing to Avril Lavigne in your PJs.

OMG IT HAPPENED. I finally beat my high score in Neopets Meerca Chase and I'm not even gonna lie, I screamed. Loud.
My neighbor banged on the wall (again) but WHATEVER!!! It's not my fault I'm elite.
Also, the new Blink-182 song is giving me feelings. I doodled lyrics all over my jeans. Again.
I might iron on some patches too. Should I post a pic? LMK in the guestbook 💖

📅 April 20, 2003 - Happy Easter!!

Spent the weekend at Grandpa Dave's cabin in the Okanagan. Classic Easter vibes: egg hunts, cousin drama, and a lotta chocolate.
But here's the real kicker, Grandpa brought out his old fav snack from when he was a logger:

🥴 TOOTSIE ROLLS + YELLOW MUSTARD.

Like... what?? At first I was like, Grandpa you need help. But then I tried it… and weirdly?? It rocks. 😳
The sweetness of the chocolate with the tang of the mustard? It's soooooo goood!'
He called it a "Poor Man's Power Snack" and said it was all the rage back in the day when they'd haul lumber and needed sugar + spice to survive the cold.

Honestly, 8/10. Would eat again. Maybe not in public. Maybe.
Anyway, if you try it, tag me on ICQ or post it in the guestbook!!

So I dyed my hair pink. Like, cotton candy pink. Mom freaked, Tara cried (happy tears), and now strangers call me "Jem" at the corner cafe.
This is the energy I needed going into spring. Might write a zine about radical joy or something.

PS: My Tamagotchi is still alive. Just wanted everyone to know. 🙃

Tried to rollerblade to work to save bus fare and wiped out in front of a group of skateboarders. They clapped. I bowed.
Also started listening to Evanescence and honestly? Kinda wanna wear black lace now. Might update my AIM profile with some poetry later.

Made a dream board with Tara using clippings from old Seventeen mags and a cereal box. Mine has a beach, a pug, and Leonardo DiCaprio.
Tara's just has glitter, a mushroom cloud, and the words "NO RULES" in magazine ransom font. I love her.

Went thrifting and found THE most perfect denim jacket. Slightly haunted, but in a cute way.
I'm gonna bedazzle it and maybe stitch "whatever 4ever" on the back!

Slept in and missed my shift at the store. Oops. Tara says Mercury is in retrograde so I'm blaming that.
Ate Pop-Tarts in bed and watched Spirited Away again. 10/10 emotional reset.
