I went to the Symphony last night with Lucas. Man o man! You don't know what cool is until you've heard and entire Symphonic Orchestra play the Indiana Jones theme! I wigged out so much that I think I freaked out Lucas! Man, it was so cool though! All the little bows of the violins going up and down in unison. It was a very cool experience and I'd definetly do it again!

One more week of school!
My Birthday is in two Weeks!

I tend to talk REALLY fast and slur my words even more than usual when I'm nervous. Dave sent this to me the day before the interview! I thought it was hilarious!



That's EXACTLY how you should talk at your intervew
friday!

--JO's Interview--



"Hi, I'm Wendey Nealson, how are you "

JO: "HI.................."

"Well first let me tell you a little about the
project we have for you, We're looking for a--

JO: "I............"

"excuse me?"

JO: "...................."

"well, anyway, We basicly need some art to make our
website look a little more--

JO: "am........................."

"I'm sorry? did you say "am?"... am what?"

JO: "........................"

"OK then...what I was saying was, We need out web page
to have a little more color, some nice graphics and a
professional looking logo, do you think that you
could--


JO: "fine........"


"fine what? you mean you can do it? are you feeling
OK? maybe we should re-schedule, how about tuesday-

JO: "How......."

"How what? is tuesday not good? I think we could
probably get you in-

JO: "are......................."

"OK, Ms.Hall, this is getting strange...why are you
doing this, you dont make any sense! Why do you keep
blurting out random words! Its really stupid! and you
know what else is stupid--

JO: "you?............."


"Ms.Hall it was nice meeting you,we'll hold on to your
resume for 30 days, good day madam."

If you can be cheerful, ignoring aches and pains,

If you can resist complaining and boring people with your troubles,

If you can eat the same food every day and be grateful for it,

If you can understand when loved ones are too busy to give you time,

If you can overlook when people take things out on you when, through no
fault of yours, something goes wrong,

If you can take criticism and blame without resentment,

If you can face the world without lies and deceit,

If you can conquer tension without medical help,

If you can relax without liquor,

If you can sleep without the aid of drugs,

If you can do all these things,

Then you are probably the family dog. Vanish! ]]> ~swanjun http://swanjun.deviantart.com/journal/292925/ http://swanjun.deviantart.com/journal/292925/ Fri, 04 Oct 2002 15:57:11 PDT

Any error in any calculation will be in the direction of the most harm.


No books are lost by lending except those you particularly wanted to keep.


If you throw anything away, you will need it as soon as it is no longer available.


When the plane you are on is late, your connecting flight is on time.

Any given computer program will expand to fill all available memory.


Computers are unreliable but humans are even more unreliable.


The chance of the bread falling with the buttered side down is directly proportional to the cost of the carpet.


Enough research will tend to support any theory.

The other check-out line always moves faster -- and immediately slows down after you change lines.


If enough data is collected, anything may be proven by statistical methods.

The man who can smile when things go wrong has thought of someone he can blame it on.


Nothing is impossible for the man who does not have to do it himself.

I love those! They're so witty! OKAY! But to my Art History report!!

I think even guys will enjoy watching it. I really thought it was more romantic than most movies for several reasons. First of all, they didn't hop into the sack the first date.

My name is Pride. I am a cheater
I cheat you of your God-given destiny...
Because you demand your own way.
I cheat you of contentment...
Because you "deserve better than this."
I cheat you of knowledge...because you alreayd know it all.
I cheat you of healing...becauseyou're too full of me to forgive.
I cheat you of holiness...
Because you refuse to admit when you're wrong.
I cheat you of vision...
because you'd rather look in the mirror than out a window.
I cheat you of genuine friendship..
Because nobody knows the real you.
I cheat you of love.
Because real romance demands sacrifice.
I cheat you of greatness in heaven...
Because you refuse to wash another's feet on earth.
I cheat you of God's glory...
Because I convince you to seek your own.
My name is Pride. I am a cheater.
You like me because you think I'm always looking out for you.
Untrue.
I'm looking to make a fool of you.
God has so much for you, I admit, but don't worry.
If you stick with me,
You'll never know.

He just might have to meet Jo the Crusher!

hahah!

Seriously though, me and Jessica have been dreaming about going sailing for TWO months! Scott brought the montage I made to his last sailing regeta and showed it to his team mates. They all liked and it and thought it was pretty cool. One of them asked him, " Hey man, why doensn't SHE ever go sailing with us."

After some time I figured out why.

The reason why he wants me to go sailing with them is quite simple...

I spent many many MANY hours on a LOT of those art and hardly got any response at all. In fact some of my lamer photographs on my site have done better than most of my fine art! It's very frustrating to spend a love of time, energy, sweat and love and see it ignored when another okay photo of a cute female friend of mine rack up the points instead!

So instead of the frustation of it all, I usually just upload photos.

I'm not sure if that's the right attitude to have, it's just how I feel.

Oh well!

(To the tune of Gilligan's Island)


Now sit right back and you'll hear a tale,
A tale of a fateful trip...
That started on a birthday morn
On Scott's real crappy ship (on Scott's real crappy ship)


Jo & Jess were all hyped up
To go on a real sail
They trusted Scott's abilities
They never thought he'd fail (They never thought he'd fail)


(Crashing sound)


Well it started when the motor pooped
And the rudder was too small
One guy was stressed and tried to swim
With sandals on and all (With sandals on and all)


The girls had fun on this wonderful
Twenty-first birthday
They learned to sail awfully quick
They tacked and ducked and prayed (They tacked and ducked and prayed)


That's the end of this wrenching tale
Of a sailing miscapade
With
Cappy Scott...
First mate Jo...
"Cook" Jessica, and her cool bank hat...
Our friend Andy...
And all of our dolphin friends


By a marina in St. Augustine!
