i wanted to blog several times over the course of the week, but alas, my internet was down for a couple of days, and suffice to say, that was quite annoying. so now is the perfect time because (of course) i'm in the middle of PILES of catching up to do. i think it was partly because of the subway fiasco on thursday (some broken switch at eglinton causing me an extra 2 hr headache) and the toga party friday (yeah baby yeah!) AND add procrastination and laziness to the mix.
to all the people that know i'm not a huge "big dog" fan...i can now add to my resume that i've "dog-sat". hahahaha. shelley has taken in carmi's dog, karma...and because karma hasn't fully gotten used to his 'surroundings' (ie, her place) she's afraid of leaving him completely unattended most of the day. this is where i come in...hahahaha...i watched karma for 3 hrs on thursday, and although i was kind of worried about being in the same room with him all by myself, it was a huge success! mainly because i just sat and studied, and he contentedly ate a bone and got a pamper job from me. hahahaha. this kat made friends with a big dog. whoo!
i still haven't gotten that history book from that bookstore. this is causing me undue amounts of stress and headaches. see, i would REALLY love to know what's going on in my chinese philosophy class, but unfortunately i think i'll have to stick with writing down almost every other word the prof says and then try to decipher his notes after class (which for the record i haven't gotten to yet). hahaha. i was supposed to finish most of my homework today, but that doesn't look like it's happening anytime soon.
note to self: no more parties until the smc halloween party...i don't think i can handle anymore activities on my plate....i've got my full course load, piano, the volunteer placement, most likely adrian, AND best buddies going on...oh yeh...my friends. hahahahaha. what friends?!?!?! ;p

why is it that every time i run into my teenybopper frosh kid (whoi have the biggest crush on), i lose all my abilities of speech and acting like i'm 4-5 years older then him? i get all retarded, that's what i do. hahahaha. i told shelley today that i have stop treating him like a materialistic object and start seeing him like the human being that he is. hahahaha...i've got a ways to go with him. :)
another stupid thing i did today: i went to buy my books for chinese philosophy at the east west bookstore at 128 harbord...this bookstore is fairly small and i clearly walked in on some sort of lesson the guy was teaching...and after finalizing that i had the right books, i realized that i didn't bring out either my debit or credit card, and that i didn't have $6 to my name. needless to say, i had to tell him that i'd be back monday...boy that guy won't forget me in a hurry! hahahaha.
okok...i need to get in some study time before i go out tonight...to INSIDE...INteresting...hahahaha, i kill myself sometimes...

congrats to kalan porter, our next canadian idol! hahaha, for the record, i heard him sing for the first time tonight, talk about waiting until the end! ;p
so this has been a jam-packed fun fun week. i totally wasn't expecting to go out tuesday night, but somehow i got conned into going to o'grady's to watch the final hockey game: canucks vs. finns...and of course we rock, so after jacob spends $200 on food and beer for everyone, we hit the streets to yonge and college, go down to dundas where jake and chad jump in the fountain (oh, brandon, adam, greg, matt, simone, shelley, and bhavna were with us) and then we head back up to college for mickey d sundaes before heading home for some much needed sleep!
it was manny's birthday monday (happy belated manny!) and tomorrow (or is it today?) is faye's birthday. tanaka's back so it'll be good times! ames' is getting her wisdom teeth out tomorrow too, so we'll be having lots of ice cream meals too...hahaha. the silly girl's been reading stories about people getting their wisdom teeth out, and is now severely freaked out. hahahaha
i'm happy. mu's in bioethics with me...frasier's in chinese philosophy...aileen's in globalization and underdevelopment...and jenny's in speech disorders and language variation. the last two classes are the best because they're small and intimate, and the profs are genuinely interested in US (not the number) and we get to pick and work on our projects for the rest of the semester. groovy. i secretly love it. hahahahaha.
oh, and one more thing....ABT's BACK!!!!!

A girl asked a guy if he thought she was pretty, he said..."no."
She asked him if he would want to be with her forever....and he said "no."
She then asked him if she were to leave would he cry, and once again he replied with a "no."
She had heard enough.
As she walked away, tears streaming down her face the boy grabbed her arm and said....
"You're not pretty you're beautiful.
I dont want to be with you forever. I NEED to be with you forever.
And I wouldnt cry if you walked away...I'd die..."
She asked him if he would want to be with her forever....and he said "no."

ever party on a boat cruise during the tailend of a hurricane? well it's tons of fun! we had about 200 people come out and we all danced up a storm for 3 hours. the floor of the boat was literally bouncing up and down and it reminded me of titanic, just before the windows caved in! hahahaha!
suffice to say, it's been quite a trip down drama avenue. i lost my half my voice and now ames says i sound like a really bad sex operator who's been smoking for 55 years. i've had a total of 7 hrs from monday to thursday morning, PLUS during the olympiad tuesday morning, we ALL got SOAKED to the skin and didn't have anything to dry off in so needless to say....GOOD TIMES!
so this is the end of frosh forever...this is it. the last frosh where i handle hassles of no show leaders, of endless registration, of endless bickering and drama and stressed out coordinators and marshals. it's kind of sad, really...i'm already nostalgic but i guess it'll really show next year.
school's begun....yet again. i went to my only class today, and although it's going to be ALOT of WORK...it's something i'm really interested, mainly variation within language. i'm working with professor sali tagliamonte again (i had her for LIN254), and she's pretty awesome with this stuff. the class is also very small so it's very personal and lots of discussions with the group. i love starting new classes...it's when the marks come rolling in that gets me less motivated. hahahaha, oh well, seven more months and i'm out of here!
ever been to a pub at york? well we'll see how this situation goes!

it's been soooooo crazy busy! and i LOVE IT! THIS is the busy i like! i think i need to find a job where i get to organize stuff...anything, events, parties, folders....hahahahah...just not in a basement! hahahah
i love everyone for everything you've done to make this the best birthday ever! i opened my email to the sweetest messages and people were calling me all day as i was helping out with the stuffing of the frosh kits! people went out of their way to come and see me at the madison and i fully appreciate their love!
highlights included:
- shelley (phone) and henry (msn) being the first people to wish me happy birthday at 12am!
- talking to simone on the phone till the wee hours of the morning...
- taking out condoms from the frosh kits...hey kids time for the debauchery to begin...what better way then to get 500 free condoms? hahahaha....oh this can be taken in SO MANY different ways...
- dinner with my parents (we had some GOOD FOOD!)
- shelley and karen called at the same time while we were eating, i had to call shelley back...and faye calls not 2 mins after...hahahaha...all my parents could do was roll their eyes! hahaha
- matt came down with me to st. mikes so we could finish the photocopies of the puzzle scavenger hunt
- ruby (romeila's sister) was at the smc parking booth...congrats to romeila on the birth of her son, ethan (as in ethan hawke!)
- georges, reza, matt and i walked out of the priests' residence doors to find the garden gates locked...the guys hoped the fence and had to do some pretty cool lifting and carrying of me over the fence! hahahaha
- of course i was late getting to the madison, and kept people waiting...but then we took up most of the top patio...good times!
- cha and karina bought me THREE shots...and no one would have them with me!!! so i had to have them all to myself! heeeeee
- tim attempting to have a conversation with my about teaching piano AFTER i had three shots...
- henry and katie did a good job with pretending their present to me was a dildo...hahahah
- al putting ice down my back
- simone, jake, steve, and the boys showing up and immediately getting drunk! hahahaha
- rita, jamie, and aaron couldn't get in at the front, so they had to come in from the basement!
- the piano man sucked ass, but whatever...we had a good round of "bye bye miss american pie" haha
- after having two more shots and chasing them down with a smirnoff twisted ice....I DIDN'T PUKE! yah!
so i think that was the best part of the day. i went out with faye and jamie the next day for bubble tea and now i wish school wasn't starting again! hahaha. of course frosh half-week starts tuesday so busy busy busy!
