You're Will Turner - Lovestruck swordsman, funky hat, too pretty by far. You're loyal, honest, courageous... and a pirate. Lucky Elizabeth.
Which POTC character are you?
this quiz was made by alanna
well, i would rather be with him, but as tim might say, at least being will turner would mean will turner would always be there when i was having sex. i would always be having sex with someone hot! haha, don't ask.
woohoo ;)

Jolly good, wot! Anyone for tennis? That'll be ten ponies, guv. You're the epitome of everything that is english. Yey :) Hoist that Union Jack!

i swear i didn't disappear. it's been a surreal past few weeks, but i did manage to get a few posts in there, as you can see. you know how some times you look back on and it's hard to believe they existed? like it's just hard to grasp them. usually it's something very different and either really good or really bad, but not this time. i just look back on the past few weeks and feel like i dreamed them. they weren't good or bad, just not fully there. like i was on drugs the whole time. and i swear i wasn't. nor am i right now, though it may seem like it with all my babbling. (haha.) basically, i just wanted to say i'm coming back, for better or worse. and dropping the quote of the day at the request of a certain timothy. especially since it was updated all of like twice. enjoy the little "caffeine diary" quote in its place.

bahama blog #4, the travels continue
so i thought i was finally going to have internet access today, and i do…kind of. we switched hotels today, and i’m paid the $10 to get the internet in my room for 24 hours. woohoo. only it’s dial-up, and it doesn’t really seem to be working. i got to check meaghan and tim’s blogs, but just keep getting disconnected whenever i try to do anything more substantial. which means no checking on anyone else at school, or doing some research for my ilaw class. i know, sounds like so much fun. this new hotel has great pools though, and the beach is just as pretty as the last one, but without so many people hitting us up to buy things or have our hair braided. jackie thinks it’s too spring-breaky, and yes, there is an “edgewater bar” that serves drinks to people in the pool, but it’s honestly not a big deal in my opinion. and the other pools are very sobriety-friendly.
more tomorrow, and perhaps a good internet connection! and if not, you will be reading all these entries on monday, when i post all these entries upon my return to the world of “high speed internet”.

bahama blog #3… 9 april 04 at 10:30
creepy thing i found out today. the atlantis resort in the bahamas doesn’t allow bahamian residents to use their casino. they’re prohibited, even if they rent a room in the hotel. i assume it’s because they want to keep the casino for only tourists, and do not want to be caught in a controversy of bahamian residents gambling away the (generally) little money they have, but does this still not seem like an awful (not to mention offensive) policy? i was a little surprised at least.
otherwise, things were great today. air clear, water blue, what more could i ask for? i also got a few souvenirs to take home with me. :)

bahama blog #2…
so this entry is from April 8, 2004, at 11:15 pm. i discovered today that the hotel has no affordable way of me accessing the internet, so these may not be posted until much later. oops.
just in case any of you were wondering, the shower head here is massaging… just not removable! ah, my luck ;)
i had a very joey (from friends) in london moment tonight. i stopped at an internet cafĂ© to check my mail and decided to peak in on meaghan and tim’s blogs (i hope a hit showed up from the bahamas, that would be so cool!) and really missed being at georgetown, doing stuff with friends. and you know, at that point, the cheers theme may as well have been playing in the background. “i wanna be where everybody knows my name…” while i was in the bahamas! i should have been caring for little more than my suntan. whenever i do post this, all my friends can be happy that i missed them, even while in the beautiful islands. :)
so i had a lot that i wanted to write earlier today -- you know how you go through the day, and some cool stuff happens, and you start composing the blog entry about it in your head, thinking of just the right way to write it? okay, i am such a nerd! – and anyway, i seem to have forgotten all of it. perhaps tomorrow.

blogging from the bahamas!
i’m typing this on my trusty powerbook in the sharaton paradise island on wedneday night, to be posted whenever i can get my hands on an internet connection. i feel so disconnected!
so the mca______ family is officially in the bahamas! my passport has been stamped, cars are driving on the left side of the road, people are demanding to braid my hair for exorbitant prices. it’s amazing!
just a note to self to add to my ongoing mental list of things i must never do to my children: 1) the “i told you so” regarding sunscreen, 2)”see this is what happens when you don’t get enough sleep”. two annoying phrases that should be uttered with the least frequency possible.
yes, this does mean i have an unattractively blotchy sunburn already (i need to give up the dream that someday i’ll tan instead of burn), and i did not exactly go to sleep last night, but these things happen.
as a result of all this, i am exceedingly tired and will be heading to bed at this very early hour of 11:55 pm! (shock and amazement abounds.) although, let’s face it, i’m probably about to give in and curl up with a my so-called life episode. but either way, sooner or later i’ll be curled up in a king bed (i can hardly notice i’m a 20 year old sharing a bed with my younger sister!), listening to the sound of the ocean crashing on the sand. i am a happy girl!

i realize i've not blogged in a while, and for this i apologize. on that note, this will not be a long entry, i just wanted to mention that i've recently rediscovered my so-called life, and i think all should discover or rediscover it for themselves because it was and is a truly great show. (and jordan catalano was so hhhot.)
thanks to meaghan for lending me her dvds!
