  This is it for livejournal-
My final entry: number 891.


I had planned to say something profound or reflective,
but it doesn't really matter. It's all been said over the past
three years.

  Orale!
Es el cinco de Mayo.




Lo que va a pasar esta noche es un misterio,
pero vamos a ver. Solamente Rachel y Ezra saben.





Recuerdate:

No es el día de independencia para los Mexicanos-
es el día en que celebramos La Batalla de Puebla contra
los franceses y la monarquía impuesta por Napoleón III.


También celebro mis últimos clases de Español, porque ya terminé mis examenes.


so fuck yeah.

  I only half have to get my study on tonight-
which is good because I am entirely apathetic about finals.

Baltimore Uber Alles   
02:45pm 03/05/2005
  I have mixed feelings about Baltimore.
It's been a long time since I was a city girl,
but I think I've always been a small town girl.

We'll see. I just hope B-more doesn't turn me
into a hard ass hose beast.


Here's some photographic documentation:

A neighborhood in B-more

My new friends from New York who are also moving to B-more to be teachers and counselors (respectively)
These are the only people I know in Baltimore right now,
and we had the craziest night ever when some scary girls tried
to abduct us.

These are the cabs that only pick people up if they call ahead and ask for a cab... that is so fucked


...so, only time will tell my fate in that tough little city.

Hello Baltimore!   
03:51pm 30/04/2005
  Ok so...

Travelling all by myself is wicked scary and wicked awesome.

Baltimore gives me chills...

not like the ones that I got when I took a 38 degree shower
at the hostel this morning...

not like the ones when you get an eerie feeling...

but the kind of chills you get when you see
a mountain range
or a pretty sunset

It's all so overwhelming and incredible.
Today I got a job at a high school where I will
be creating the Spanish program.
I will be master of my domain!
The Maritime Academy is a new school in the system
with a student body of 350. They wear uniforms
and are either college prep or naval ROTC.



I just dipped into the library to change clothes
and use the internet.


Thus far, I think I can call this place home.
There's no place like Athens, but this I can handle.

The Baltimobile
aka my rental car is excellent
at tearing up the streets in B-more.


pictures and stories to come.

W stands for WASP   
01:09pm 28/04/2005
  Yesterday I was headed for some bagel action at Zimm's.
When I got out of the car I saw a sticker on the back of an SUV.

It read:







And my stomach dropped to the floor.
That asshole could give a shit about women, their bodies, and their rights.
Any woman willing to buy into such a shallow idea is truly a victim of severe ignorance-
I'm guessing there is a staunch republican male behind it.




I can just imagine Bush's campaign managers sitting around...
"Man, I mean, women vote now! Can you believe that?! and this whole women's rights thing seems to be a hot-button issue. What's our platform on bitches? Oh really? Oh, that's not very woman-friendly... well what have we got? ...... women.... starts with 'W'.... Dubya starts with 'W'.... Let's roll with it! INTERN! C'mere. I want you to run this desgin to the printer and on your way make sure you yell derogatory things a ladies going into women's clinics. Also, be sure and flick off the people observing there right to choose at the arches. Remember, women have smaller feet, that's how we know that they can't handle the burden of deciding for themselves and owning their own bodies. GOD wants it that way."



fuckers.

i like this feeling   
12:14am 28/04/2005
  Let me tell you what a sense of accomplishemnt is.


Today I woke up, gathered all my boxes and bags,
and loaded my car to maximum capacity...
all by myself.

I then I made the 2 hour trek home and unloaded everything...
all by myself.


I returned to Athens in time to see Rachel compete in a modelling competition.
Then I competed as well, and although I did not win I feel sure that my towering 5 foot 3 inches stature
and confident smile gave those girls a run for their money.

I also made arrangements for a place to live in May.


Then, I dutifully came home and completed my term paper.

It's shortly after midnight and I have done everything
on my to-do list and then some.

I am now going to get wasted at the Caledonia.

thank you.

  I am the moving MASTER.
done and done.



My dad's SHIPS were missing and I asked him if they were in the harbor.
Commodore Locher informed me that they were currently dry-docked,
but that there were some lighthouses now.



So, now I just have to make this term paper my bitch,
and the hellish week will be over...
for the most part.



Oh, and apparently Pain and Wonder is using my tattoo for advertisment in the Flagpole this week.
My Immaculate Artichoke is a STAR!!!!

  When this is all said and done,
I'm going to need a heavy sedative.


Does anyone want:


-a scanner
-assorted frames
-a stereo missing the cd tray
-a 35mm that works only in full sunlight
-two cd towers
-a broken record player
-an inflatable whale
-a male cat that likes to yell?

  Last two days of classes and I don't even wanna go.
I had to leave a warm bed- bribing myself with a frickin' bagel.



It was a good bagel too,
but I still don't want to go to class.

  I'm looking at an overwhelming week:

-term paper
-packing up/moving out
-going to B-More (why B-less?!)
-general lovin' and chillin' out, maxin', relaxin' and coolin'


Coffee and Cigarettes is such, SUCH! a good movie.

Taylor Mead and William Rice were incredible!

I feel so divorced from the world.

Also,
Billy Murray with RZA and GZA
and
Iggy Pop and Tom Waits


amazing.
highly recommended.

southern?!   
01:01pm 24/04/2005
  As the reality of leaving Georgia is becoming more imminent
I am slowly realizing that, despite years of serious attempts to avoid it,
you can take the girl out of the South, but you can't take the South out of the girl.





I've never felt a stronger connection to my home and my family as I do right now.
I've never embraced the fact that my name is Jamie Rae.
I've never let my accent slip so much.

It's weird.
I spent the last 9 years plotting my escape,
I mean, I still want it, but I'm just a little less eager
to leave behind such a big part of what makes me, me.

ANYWAY, is anyone available to give me a ride to the airport
and/or pick me up?

Friday 4/29
I need to be at the airport at Noon.

Monday 5/2
I need to be picked up around 3.

I will pay for gas, throw in lunch, shower you with kisses, and buy you a souvenir in Baltimore.
Pleasethankyou.

that his boxers were hanging out the bottom.


Tacky.

Next weekend I will be making a trip to Baltimore
all by myself 'cause I'm a big girl!

I'm going to spend the weekend at a job placement fair,
hanging out in B-town and D.C., looking at neighborhoods
and potential places to live.


How exciting

  Four and twenty
obliteration.


I had my first Charminar experience,
and it won't be my last.
Rocked out the potato cakes.



My dad sent me this Better Than Ezra song.
He remembers the 16 year old Jamie,
but loves the 20 something Jamie just the same.


Baltimore keeps showing up everywhere.
It's a sign, but i don't believe in that crap.

I do believe in how i'm feeling right now.
It's right and honest and feels like Ben and Jerry's
and lazy days and love affairs.

  Quotes of the Day:


"It's heck being a crip!"- My gramps


Dad: "I'm buying and selling! I've got a dinette set, 2 bedroom suits, a coffee table, SHIPS..."

then he points to the table where there is a small fleet of model ships.

Me: "I'm gonna' call you commodore from now on."

Dad: "Call me Columbus. You know, like Christopher!"





My brother stole the jaguar.
