My Last Name

so acuple nights ago i'm putting information into teh computer adn its takeing me longer than it should because well, its so fucking boreing and i caould have been doing other things, ie sleep. so anyway i start to wonder about doukhobors and the culture and religion and why they left Russia and all that jazz. So i go on to a site adn then think, maybe dad knows some of this stuff and i sent him the web site i was on because i thought it was interesting and what not. and he e-mails me back telling me he's found our name and the meaning of it on the web site i sent him. OMG! i didn't think to look for it becuase i figured it would have been to changed. and i know to a lout of people knowing what your last name means is not a huge deal and who cares right? WRONG! to me its a hgue deal. i've always wanted to know what my last name means. I know what Laura means i'll prolly never know what Lusha means, but thats fine. I was so happy and smiley all night, it was a huge deal to me. i thought it was really cool
so my last name was originally Ukraninan, got Russianized and then came to canada and got canadianized.
'Planidin is a Russianization of the Ukrainian surname Planida. The -in suffeix ending was added in teh second half of teh 19th centurey. It is derived fromt eh Ukrainian term planida, meaning one's "fate" or "destiny" english spelling variants include: blah blah blah, Planden, blah blah'

Yesturday was the day i was a witch, and i must say i did a poor job. the kids just weren't into it whihc inturn made me not into it. if you don't want to play than niether do i sort of thing. some of them really enjoyed it, most of them just wanted to get it over with. So last night i took over Melissa's duty, and i had done duty the night before (thats when i found out my last name's emaning) anyway, i went to bed around 12:30am, was alseep by 1:00am and was woken at 4:00am. The prealarm for the fire alarm was going off and i couldn't hear it from the Hell floor but one of the teachers could hear it on G-Floor and no one else was even awake. so i go down and obviously i find out pretty quickly whats wrong, i look at the main alarm box thing adn theres four button turn alarm on, turn alarm off and two others, i press the alarm off button not thinking it'll work and it does. weird. the little digital screen says that it's going off from room 5. we go to room five and the light on the fire alarm is on, which its not suppose to be and the room is soooooooo hot and muggy. theres three kids in there, and this week there's only been two but one kid left adn you can't leave kids alone in a big center. so the teacher goes in and opens teh window blah blah blah i'm not in my room at 6:00am and unable to sleep because
1)being woken up by a walky-talky call button scares teh shit out of you (not literally-ew)
2) when you are woken by the duty radio you assume something is wrong and adrenilin starts going
3) when you have to get up suddenly and then go walking around the center you start to wake up a little more
4) that adrenilin didn't go anywhere or get used so now i have to try and sleep while i have adrenilin pumping around my body
i eventually got back to sleep 10:00am the actual fire alarm goes off. this is becuase every firday at 10am we have to check that its work, again woke up and almost shit myself. back to sleep. 10:30 Dan comes down to my room to ask me if its ok if i do academic tomorrow instead of a day off andhave a day off somewhere else. yeah thats fine, but just now i realize my next day off wont be for another week. if that, oh joy. oh well
anywho, it got up and out of bed today at 2:30pm. i'm so proud. i don't have to work untill 6:00 and even then its only for a cuple hours. so today is sort of like a day off










I'm destany's child, hahahahaha
