well...

whatever the heck i had this week, it certainly took me down pretty badly. i've had some sort of cold for the past week, and although i still attended lectures, labs and ABT, (well, except for tuesday when they shut down the university cuz it was SNOWING...whatever...but i digress) i was pretty much a wreak. starting with achy bones last sunday, i KNEW i was getting something, but what i still have no clue. the whole week basically has been written off since i've had no zest (hahaha, for lack of a better word) for reading. i think it's my body telling me i've been doing WAYYYYY too much and it decided to shut down this weekend. i nearly died at work yesterday...a bloodvessel broke in my eye, and so my left eye was a network of angry red lines, AND i had to take out my contacts....oooooh....

the only good thing is that it snowed alot and this contributed to the more laxed situation, MIND you, i STILL went out tuesday, and stayed out till about 5:30pm (that's right....i had INCENTIVE at JD's...heehee...i don't know what you're all thinking about but i think it was the hot chocolate!)

even though i was dying friday night, i still went out with the sorbara 3rd floor boys, chris, and simone to le biftheque. the ribs were very large and plentiful, and i must say that alot of the guys did themselves justice by packing in two platefuls of ribs....wow...simone and i were the only girls there, and did we ever feel special! ;p i had forgotten how entertaining the guys are, and seeing them just made me miss their company even more. after dinner, chris and i walked with simone to meet up with uri, and then i proceeded to let the goddamn bug have a go at me.

on another note:

SMC drama society is presenting a musical called blood brothers in which i am to be playing the piano accompaniment with ray metts. there will be 5 shows, the first one is a preview by a select audience, and the rest are on 2 fridays and 2 saturdays. the dates of the shows are march 4, 5, 6, 12, and 13th of march starting at 7pm. great bunch of singers, i totally recommend everyone coming out to see this show (and it's not because i'm in it....ok....yes it is!) i don't know the price of the tickets yet, but i don't think it's going to be that expensive.

the smc formal will be held at the da vinci banquet hall on friday march 19th. on a hollywood glamour theme, it's $30 per person ($35 the week of) and this price includes: 2 bottle of wine for the table, 2 drink tickets, bus, and a cocktail party while waiting for the bus (i believe this is because dinner is being pushed past rush hour, and i of course am helping with the cocktail party with colin and avril, so of course it will be good!)

also, the smc symposium will also be held the same week as the formal, on sunday march 21st at in either fr. madden hall or sam sorbara hall. This year's theme is Vision for the Future of SMC and it's looking to be as good as last year's (when i ran it with flo, thanks very much) if not better (because this year, tee's running the show). Tickets are the usual, $5 for good food, free flowing wine (ok, don't take my word on that one...that was just last year) and sometimes even good entertainment! (hahaha, that's mostly if a heated debate goes on or something)

it's getting to be that time of year where i'm getting pretty burnt out. i am NOT looking forward to all this crap. did you know that february has the highest suicide rates of the year? i'm thinking it has something to do with the slugginess of the month, the lack of sun exposure is killing brain cells, as well as people. i have never had this much crap to do, and it's taking it's toll on me. and this is definitely not good, why? because most of this hasn't even HAPPENED yet...looking at my little pieces of calendar paper hurts...

no worries, all i need is some alcohol in my system, reading week (which there may or may not be reading done) and an eradication of this stupid bug that's living in my lungs...someone call the exterminator....
