I don't even remember the last time that I wrote on LJ. I've decided to start up again after being inspired by Janice. My inspirational friend!

Things in my life are pretty great lately. Ive got a good bunch of friends who are always up for hanging out and doing things after work. I feel like I never stop most days and I love that.
Single and loving it! Started crushing on a helicopter pilot earlier this summer. I saw him from afar across a bar and thought he was awsome. A few weeks ago now I met him at my staff christmas party when i was leaving. He was in the parking lot waiting for a ride and I was too. We struck up a conversation and he seem really sweet. We shared a ride home. When he got out of the car to let me out, he said "wow it was really nice to meet you" and when he closed the door he shut like a gentleman. oh how sweet.
After that I added him on Face book as friends. We have chatted a couple of time on the live chat. This past Friday night we chatted for an hour or so, I asked him if he was going out and he said that he was waiting until Saturday night.
Since Saturday night we haven't connected. I dont really know what to do next. i would love to go for a coffee or a drive with him to just get to know him more. The only problem is that Im just way to shy to ask. Im not really getting flirty vibes from him, so Im thinking that maybe he is dating someone or something. However on his profile it states single.
I guess I will have to wait it out.
In other news Im super excited about Christmas and am really looking forward to getting home.
Advise on the Pilot?

Finished exams!!! It feels so good to be done! I havent done anything to celebrate though. Just relaxed, thats pretty good if you ask me. Id rather relax with a new book and a good drink. I went to bed last night at 12ish, I started to read Kate Chopin's The Awakening. It appears to be an interesting read.
My boy is gone for the weekend. Im ready for him to come home now. I was just talking to him, he says he might come back a little early, he was going to come Tuesday, but he might leave today, or tommorow.
Its is absolutely beautiful here. The tempature is plus 13. Winter seems so far away.
I down loaded some Micheal Buble last night! I am offically inlove with this man!!! His voice makes my belly do flops! Hes wonderful, I think I might purchase the CD. Now thats love!

It seems like forever since I updated. Been kinda busy with life lately.
Made a new resolution to update my journal at least every couple of days. Its so fun to look back on and to see what was happening in your life a few months ago.
My girl Nancy has started a new journal and now I have to get back into it all again... In fact I missed it a little. She has been after me to update and Ive started a few times but can never think of anything to write, so I guess the first one will have to be just a blabber on about whats been happening.
I met this really nice guy Bob. Hes sweet and nice and funny. Im a bit nervous about it all because I dont know whats going to happen with us. Id like to have something a little substantial but I dont know what will come of all of this. As of right now I cant find anything that really is wrong with him. hehe! but You know me Im sure Ill find something soon, hey hes a guy.
Janice is coming for a visit this weekend! Im super excited! I cant wait to see her, its been almost 4 months since I saw her. Im excited that I will be spending some quiet time together. No downtown, no bars, just me a my girl!

One of my best friends Vanessa had a baby last week, and I got an email today. I thought it was the sweetest thing ever!
I goes like this...

A message to Leeanne from Joel Malachi James.

hey Leeanne

My mom is writing this for me because you know i am only 7 days old. She said you were really good to us eversince you found out i was on the way. you were just as excited as she was maybe even more cause she was so sick at first it was no fun for her with dad gone and all.
But mom said you helped her take care of me from the start from bring cherry blossoms, chicken burgers,or just falling asleep in the chair so we would not be home alone. and then all the phone calls when you went to school i heard them all you know some about me and some about you..and somethings i don't think i was suppose to hear but thats ok cause i was sleeping in mom belly most of the time anyway and i woun't tell my big brother terrell he seems to be the one who talks the most since i came along hahahaha your secrets safe with me.......
So mom and dad and even my big brothers Darnell and Terrell think it would be great if you would come home and be my godmother. mom said she will even help you with the trip cause we don't know when it is going to be yet so you cam call us later and let us know your answer but with a face so cute and so much like my brother which i understand you don't say many no's to i know you will be happy to do this for us.
talk to you soon

Labrador Rose

Thu, 20 May 2004 18:53:25 GMT

I ventured a walk one early May morning
With the dew on the ground, as the sunshine it beamed
I spied a wild rose growing there on the mountain
My heart skipped a beat for this vision I seen

In the flower I saw the face of my darling
The petals, her hair and the perfume, her smile
The stem of the rose was her body so slender
As it reached out for life in the rich mountain soil

Oh, Labrador rose, you're the rarest of flowers
You blossom and grow by the cold northern stream
For the rest of my life I will stay here beside you
Oh, Labrador Rose, you are one living dream

Each morning I walk by the dew in the sunshine
To be with my flower that grows on the moor
There's nothing around can compare with her beauty
Oh flower, so rare, you'll be mine evermore

Oh, Labrador rose, you're the rarest of flowers
You blossom and grow by the cold northern stream
For the rest of my life I will stay here beside you
Oh, Labrador Rose, you are one living dream

Im home!

Fri, 30 Apr 2004 14:42:53 GMT

I made it home safe and sound!
It was quite the adventure however!
I left St. John's aon Wednesday on last week and drove to Grand Falls where I spent the night with my cousin Daisy. We had a very nice time! I met her Beau, whom I think is very nice and very funny, and in my books a funny guy is a great guy to have around.
I left Grand Falls on Thursday Morning at 10:30ish, to drive down the coast. Thinking I had all day, because I wasnt getting my ride across the straits until Friday morning I was taking my dead time and doddeling along. I get a phone call from my cousin Tara, (who I was getting a ride with) she said that her Dad was on the way. Ohno! I have to hurry up! I put the pedal to the metal and scooted down the coast in record time!
I came across the straits in a long liner. Now this is a small boat. Its a boat used to Crab fish.... (ill insert a photo of the boat later!)
Its a 1 1/2 boat ride. About half way caross I started to fell queasy and though for sure I was going too loose my cookies.. but i didnt! Horray! It was quite the time!
So i made it home safe and sound! Thank the lord!
Im having a great time!

Crazy Busy this week!

I had my first exam on Monday, and spent Sunday night, all day Monday and all today at the library. I find I can get so much more accomplished at the library, because everyone else is working and you feel like a slacker if your the only one not doing anything. My home away from home!

I came down with a interesting case of Laryngitis. I woke up Sunday morning and was unable to talk, and its lasted right through to today. This is the longest time that Ive had my voice gone. Strange. I try and talk and i sound like a frog. I hate it!

I applied for a few different jobs here in town, hoping that I will be able to get one for this summer, it would be great!

Have to do some laundry, because my closet has more dirty cloths than it has clean. Not too good!

Heres hoping I get my voice back soon!

Rain rain go away!

Sat, 10 Apr 2004 17:15:08 GMT

And another Saturday dawns.

Its raining here. I hate it when it rains. At least I hate it when it rains and its cold. Two bad combinations.

Spent an interesting day yesterday with Paul and William, my cousin. He came to the house a little after lunch. We went for a snack and then went to Chapters book store. Its a great store. We went there at 2:30 and didnt leave until 5:00, we were just browsing through all the books. I found the National Geographic pictorial book. It was beautiful. I really would like to have it, but its so expensive. Oh well.

Spent the night at home working on my school work. It was a nice productive night. I was glad that I did stay home and got some work done. It was a great night.

Plans for the night: Going to do some shopping.
Getting dressed up and going to Nancy's house.
Going to George street for a party.

Looking forward to going out tonight and getting out in the social environment.

INTELLECTUAL ONE. For you the beauty is not enough.
He/she must be smart and friendly. You are one
who think in facts. You take your feelings in
background everything is material. For you a
good partner is seen on the good results he/she
makes, his job etc. This shows you that she/he
is a respectable person who has god qualities,
and then you start to fall in love with
her/him. You dont like people that are lying or
playing. Your loved one will never cheat on you
because he/she respects you and you choose your
partner carefully.PLEASE VOTE, I want to know
what you think about my quiz, I worked hard on
it.
You can always message me or tell me how I can
improve that quiz. Ill sure write back.
