DAY #5
i should have stayed in calgary one more day. aiee liz may not be able to make it to the big "family reunion" awwww...what a shame. brother and 5 sisters! whoa!
before i forget...HAPPY B-DAY CARL! ....yesterday! ahaha...it IS 12:20am in the morning! i'm still awake cuz we just got back from ah yee mary's place and ah yee vee and mom fell asleep and aiee haley was talking really loud and i'd prolly have stayed at ah yee mary's except for the fact that she has no internet! and what would i do without internet?!?!?

awesome day! worked out on ah yee mary's treadmill and i felt great! kuw fou george took us out to lunch. then we went to pick up ah yee vee from work and she took us to stanley park and we walked along the beaches! AND!!! she took us to eat cheese cake at this really great shop called "true confections" and it was hilarious because we parked in a spot that needed a permit and we didn't have one so we asked the waitress for a patio seat so we could keep an eye out for our car incase it needed to be towed! ahaha!

after cheese cake, ah yee vee took us to robson street (equivalent to yonge st. downtown) and we had such a great time walking around. tho..i think aiee haley is sick with something and it was really funny becuase it was 5 adults and me and ames. ahaha.

i forgot to mention something about yesterday. when we had just past kamloops, we stopped off at this gas station and the CUTEST GUY filled the gas for us! i was literally DROOLING! ahaha! ames looked at me and asked why i was staring really weirdly until she turned aound to see what i was looking at and then she started making fun of me! i hope we see him again when we go back to calgary! ahahahaaaa!

ok. i'm falling asleep now so i'll be logging off. lisa, flo, kirsten....EVERYONE! i miss you and will be calling you soon! i bought a unipass card and i have 83 mins! yah!

DAY #4
i spent a whole day vegetating in the car. we drove from calgary to vancouver today. it was very tiring. can you imagine? spend a day sleeping in the car. ugh. a mountain goat, some sheep and tons of cows. the mountains were pretty, but not as pretty as yesterday. so now i'm here and i'm going to aiee mary's to sleep and she has no internet so i'll be going.

it's been fun tho. mom's brother (uncle george) and her sisters, mary, haley, margaret were all there. except victoria who's sleeping cuz she works tomorrow morning at 4 am and liz cuz she's still in calgary. ok now really going! goodnite! miss all of you! muah!

DAY #3
went to lake louise and radium springs all day. we were up at 7am (how is this a vacation ppl??!?) and had breakfast in this really quaint diner (i'll have pics) and spent most of the day....in the car...tho...i have some really cool highlights! ames saw a deer in the morning...and then we almost ran into a baby deer (we didn't)...we also saw a nuclear family (for all you anthro ppl out there) of mountain goats at radium springs...let me tell you what a disappointment radium springs was. we went there expecting a yellowstone geyser spitting natural spring...what did we see? A POOL...and they wanted us to pay too! so we went to the banff town instead and went shopping...oooh! they only pay 7% tax in alberta! i'm sooooo getting $15 bras! yeh!

we had a BEAUTIFUL day today and lake louise was just awesome...we went 5 years ago and i can still remember it was an awful day. no sun whatsoever. today the sun was out and shining and the baby chipmunks were all over the place. the lake we a beautiful shade of turqouise and the glaciers were really pretty. all that geology crap that i took in really came in handy today!

uncle bob drove us to this restaurant called smugglers where they had THE BEST roast beef! jeff came after work and ate the most. 16 ounce piece of meat! i'm still trying to digest my thin slices of 8 ounce meat! and to top it off, i went home with jeff and he made it a point to sckreech at every light, race with every car, vroom off really fast AND with his dance music turned up to the max....it was AWESOME! ahahahaha!

i think they went down to watch lord of the rings in bob's home theatre....i started to watch it this afternoon, but alas...headache and stomach cramps, now i'm relaxing with my chamomile tea!

DAY 2 - AMES' B-DAY!
so jeff took me out yesterday nite. aiee liz and bob had a house warming party and it was REALLY REALLY boring..(they were all adults) and ames was really tired so she stayed at home. we went to laserquest where jeff's friends came with some cousin's from switzerland (too bad they were like 15....SWITZERLAND!) and it laserquest was sooooo much fun...except the part where i came in dead last! ahahahah...then afterwards jeff's friends (oh right...they're girls) wanted to go to this gay bar called "detours" and i really wanted to go cuz karina and charysee are always going and i want to go...but jeff didn't want to so instead we drove around calgary's empty mall lots looking for shopping carts to ram into and make them flip over these bumps....i KNOW!!!!! CRAZY!!!! jeff drives at like 160km/h! groovy! ahahah...so we finally got back home at like 12:30am and then we chilled in his room drinking kokanee beer (i hate beer...) and just talking cuz afterall...we haven't seen each other in like 5 years!

aiee liz took us to their A&W restaurant in okotok we got free french fries! yay! ahaha...and they have llama farms next to their house...i gotta get a pic of those llamas! i got a picture of their house...it's like a beautiful 3 car garage castle....*green with envy*

went to chinnock's mall today! it's great! it reminds me of eaton centre...ahhh....SHOPPING! it was great cuz i was cramping all day so i went to the GNC and bought chamomile tea...and then found an organic store for ORGANIC tampons...cuz the regular ones have bleach in them...yeh i know flo....SCARY....

haha...jeff's out with his friends...and i'm on his computer...he said i got cream all over his desk the other day...i didn't! blah...guys...oh well...i'm so glad lis and flo were on tonite! we were chatting three way for about 45 mins! thanx girls! i miss you! mwah!

anyway, chamomile tea and sleep...and then hot springs tomorrow!

DAY 1
wow! that's ALL i have to say. it's like 7pm calgary time right now and aiee elizabeth has company over for our dinner tonight. but it's like 9pm toronto time! weird! i spoke briefly with flo before she went to play pool with her boyz! and it was funny! remember this miau: http://gowiththeflo.8m.com/ ok!

so i was up at 7am toronto time this morning to finish packing (cuz you know...i'm THE procrastinator) and left the house at 8:30am for the airport. we had a very nice breakfast and then went to our flight...hahaha....getting thru the airport security! that was FREAKY! they went thru EVERYTHING!!! i don't know...it's not like i was hiding anything...but the way they acted like...open your camera for us...what? toothpics in a tiny container that looks like it would contain cocaine?!?!?! any sharp items? ahahahah...the detector got my dad...it turned out to be his belt buckle...and the change purse he forgot in his pocket! ahahahah!

our flight time was 11:15am...we were ON THE PLANE by 11:20am...which was GREAT timing! BUT.....the captain had to wait for a flight attendant from another plane flight and guess what time we actually left?!?!? that's right...12:30 pm....an hour and 15mins later...geez...and then ME....QUEEN OF MOTION SICKNESS....i dunno...i don't like planes. period.

we got to calgary at around 4:15pm (TO time) and aiee liz came to pick us up and took us out to lunch for vietnamese noodles! then they took us home...HOOME....do you know? i think i want to LIVE HERE! they are sooooooooooo RICH!!! like NO JOKES! they literally had a mansion built! it's fully completed...basement is fully done....there is a HUGE THEATER ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM in their basement...next to MY ROOM (oh yeh...ames will be sleeping on a futon in MY room tonite! ahahaha) and a kickass HUGE washroom (that's bigger then ames' room at home) WITH A STEAM SAUNA! can you imagine?!?!?!? ahhhh....luxury! ooops...did i forget to mention? they live right on the edge of this lake with an island in the middle...it's like a minature blue mountain resort! ahhhhh! *drool drool* i love em!

which i should also mention now as well...my cousin jeff has taken my sister out for a walk and he's *let* me go on his comp! kick ass!

ok...i'm gonna type some emails now! update tomorrow! heh heh!

so maybe i got raped on my exam...who knows? i'm just glad i'm DONE! YES!!!!! whoooo hooooo!!!!! and i'm off to calgary and vancouver on SATURDAY! AND i don't have to work tomorrow! YEEEAAAHHHHH! good job good job *pats meself on the back*

ok...done with the retardedness

mom, dad, grandma and eva are playing MJ again...ahahaha...they figure they should make the most of MJ cuz they won't be getting any of THAT in two weeks. ames is on this josh grovin phase...it's freaking me out...ahahahaha....

i feel good! i worked out this morning after being a BLOB for 3 weeks...and that was GOOD...what was on tv? onegin...with liv tyler and ralph fiennes...yes grace...drool if you must...it was a stupid movie. enjoyed a nice HOT shower...it's amazing how the little things bring so much pleasure after having hurried showers at the crack of dawn and then rushing down for coffee with flo in the morning. (ahhhhh...i KILL myself!)

"I pray you'll be our eyes
And watch us where we go
And help us to be wise
In times when we don't know

Let this be our prayer
As we go our way
Lead us to a place
Guide us with your Grace
To a place where we'll be safe

La luce che to dai
I pray we'll find your light
Nel cuore resterò
And hold it in our hearts
A ricordarchi che
When stars go out each night
L'eterna stella sei
Nella mia preghiera
Let this be our prayer
Quanta fede c'è
When shadows fill our day
Lead us to a place
Guide us with your grace

Give us faith so we'll be safe.
Sognamo un mondo senza più violenza
Un mondo di giustizia e di speranza
Ognuno dia la mano al suo vicino
Simbolo di pace e di fraternità

La forza che ci dai
We ask that life be kind
E'il desiderio che
And watch us from above
Ognuno trovi amore
We hope each soul will find
Intorno e dentro a sé
Another soul to love

Needs to find a place,
Guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we'll be safe
E la fede che
Hai acceso in noi
Sento che ci salverà

Translation

The light that you give us
Will stay in our hearts
Reminding us
That in my prayer
you are an everlasting star
There's so much faith

We dream of a world with no more violence
A world of justice and hope
Grasp your neighbors hand
As a symbol of peace and brotherhood.

The strength that you give us
Is the wish
That everyone may find love
In and around himself

And the faith that
You've lit inside us
I feel will save us"

before i forget.....HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARKO!...you are now....TWENTY YEARS OLD....whoa...that's OLD! j/j! damn! i'm turning 20 in less then a month too! *sob* i can't believe i'm turning....OLD! wah! ok...so i guess that movie you rented sucked, eh? ahahaha....

wongie just called...yay...that means i'll be getting frosh lists of ppl in rez...and then we can DELETE them...ahahah....from the rest of the frosh lists...and then we get....*drumroll please*....FROSH COMMUTERS! how cool is that? ahhhh...the little things that amuse me!

so i'm cleaning my room cuz it's a PIGSTY...and i never realized how much JUNK i accumulate! i like to keep old notes and stuff...but then i have no place to put em...my clothes pile up on the chair and the floor...and i miracle happened! if i MAKE MY BED...the room automatically becomes much roomier and cleaner! how cool is that? ahahahaaha....i'm such a junk rat!

what's this?!?!?!? BRAIN FRY!!!!!
yeh...so spending 10hrs at the library is NOT a recommended diet....i fully believe that i will be relaxing like hell after tomorrow's exam! i'm actually really psyched! i COULD technically write the exam earlier...that's how confident i am! yay! i was thinking that i'd be at the library bright and early tomorrow morning...but since then, i've decided that i think i'm gonna enjoy my sleep and get up whenever i get up and go study when i'm good and ready....who's placing bets? ahahahaha....

ames is playing stupid operatic music...which has forced me to use my library ear plugs...how sad is that?!?!? oooh...guess what else is really sad? the fact that i'm so dead that i couldn't even remember masako's name today...i saw her at the library and i'm like "HEY...." yeh...fun time, no? ran into adelaide as well...oh gesus...was is adele? oh god...either way...she has her chem 138 exam tomorrow...ahahahaha...i REMEMBER WHEN I TOOK THAT STUPID COURSE! i HATED IT!!!!! mwahahahahahaaaaa!!!!

on a side note: hey ames! i read your silly ocean story...i like it! made me almost fall off my seat laughing! yeh...haven't seen YOU in awhile, huh? how's grandma? ahahaha...oh yeh....this is so sad....

ok...stopping now...going to sleep now!

whoo hoo! done my geo exam! *whirly finger over head*
now i'm gonna eat and drink and be merry until 10pm before i get back to studying for wednesday's anthro exam!
booooo!
alrighty...*crack knuckles* better get cracking...(tho...carl knows i hate cracking knuckles for that matter! hee hee)

OMG I'M GONNA DIE!

no...for real! i started studying for geology....and i'm not even halfway thru chap 16 yet! ugh...i'm looking at landslides, and creeping and slumping and rock glaciers...and it's quite pathetic...

i was sleeping in the afternoon (yeh...so smart...sleep instead of studying) after i was up so early in the morning to teach (i should do this NO TEACHING thingy when i'm studying for exams...it's so stressful to be teaching when your brain is screaming "you're not studying enuf! you're stupid! you're wasting precious studying time!!!!")...oh...i got sidetracked...the point of that whole sleeping thing was that i was woken by this RETARDED sound coming from outside...and i didn't even know where it was coming from so i couldn't even run screaming outside to stop the noise...and then the doorbell started ringing frantically like it was the end of the world and when i finally dragged myself out of bed long enuf to put on some suitable "opening door" clothing and then opened the door...who was there? some ppl looking for a russian family that supposedly lives somewhere on our street...HOW THE HELL AM I SUPPOSED TO KNOW IF WE HAVE RUSSIAN PPL LIVING ON OUR STREET?!?!?!? grrrr....and to imagine, grandma slept thru the whole episode too....

so yes...that most annoying noise finally drove me down to my basement to study...let ME TELL YOU...it's cold and icky...but it's finished...so i guess i shouldn't be complaining...but i like to complain...especially when i'm wasting time blogging instead of studying...actually...i'm on break...so HA!

flo actually woke me up the last time before i started studying! yay flo! she's been studying at the library...which i think is a very good idea...i think i'll go to the public library tomorrow...i don't think i can stand the cold anymore...but WAIT....stupid library's are WHAT?!?!? CLOSED ON SUNDAY'S DURING JULY AND AUGUST?!?!? *sigh* i can never win can i? i've been kicked out of so many libraries...robarts closed at 6 last nite, and ES closed at 5 the day before...i'm destined to fail everything....

ok...i'm finished whining...i going back to studying...

just in case ppl think i died....i haven't.
i've been buried beneath tons of studying at robarts and earth sciences. if you want to find me. i'll be either on the 2nd or 3rd floor reading room of robarts or earth sciences. i have an assignment due tomorrow, but i've made my own deadline of 12pm today. if you bother to look at the time i'm blogging right now, it's approximately 12:30pm. so it's quite obvious that i haven't made the deadline. i'm completely living on 4 hours of sleep (which technically is not whinable but i like to sleep 8-10hrs a day) and i've been not at home. i haven't seen 1/2 my fam in 3 days and now everyone thinks i'm dead. for the record, i believe i kicked my test's ass yesterday and flo is the only person that see's me on a daily basis, and only because we meet up at 8-9am in the morning for coffee! ;p

what?!?!?! today is vicky's birthday?!?!? well then...HAPPY BIRTHDAY VICKY!!!!! *smiles*

you see, vicks, that if i wasn't ready kinsey's blog...i would never had known! so...you must promise me that you will try and blog at least once a month in english, otherwise i NEVER KNOW what you are doing! and on a side note: yes kinsey, the cinema that's is opening at fairview is probably rainbow cinema's and they are known for their $4.50 deals. they have em at promenade mall and markville mall. i think we should go.

"every sentence is so completely random and not at all dependent with every other sentence" - flo (or rather...something to the effect of what flo said...i can't remember the exact wording anymore)....oh...excuse me. flo just corrected me. "every sentence is fully not connected to the other ones" -really what flo said

hahahaha...you should have just SEEN what i did...grace was on the chair and juju was in the armchair next to her and ames was on the other computer, and i came in to use this computer and grace said she'd give it to me if i got the spider under julia's chair...and then i shrieked and tried to jump onto the chair that she was on...it was hilarious! and then we all started shrieking cuz we thought the spider went into my school bag and i tried to pick it up and put it on the shelf and then grace threw it on the floor again...ok...randomness...

oh WAIT! ahhhhhhh spider's moving! we're ALL shrieking! it's quite funny! and ames' yelling for dad! and grace just threw toilet paper at amelia...ahahaha....so amelia picked up the spider and threw it into the toilet and the spider bounced out and was just floating!
and thus ends the tragic life of spidey.

so we had a council meeting this morning and it's not the greatest thing in the world after 6 hrs of sleep so i tried to get some sleep when i got home...but flo decided to call, and then lisa...then it became clear to me that i was NOT meant to nap because grandma's doctor came with her husband and son, grace and jules came...and then lisa came to pick me up for coffee at timmy ho's!

we spent some 2 odd hours looking at pics and laughing and catching up and stuff cuz frankly, chick, we haven't seen each other in the LONGEST TIME! i miss you chick! hahahaaa...we couldn't go in the house because we had company...so we stayed in lisa's car and talked for a very long time. i look hideous in that photo! burn it! now! oh ok...give it to me...that's fine too...

was is just me or did jerome look really really HOT today? ;p hahahahaaaa....didn't have the deer caught in headlight look today! mmm....yummy! i got this excellent picture of him talking on the phone...such a sunshine boy! and mike looked good too...but he had a glazed look...i suppose it's cuz he partied all nite long...and something is VERY wrong with the hair! all the chickies looked especially good this morning! i do believe we can make our boys drool! hahahahahaaa....totally j/j!

grace left a sticky msg on my comp...this is what it says : CHRISTINA! we love U, but you left us. Therefore, we don't love u anymore, okay? HAHA! this is random computer note number 1. expect many more. YAY! - Grace
thanx grace.

oh man...i cried again today. i don't know...maybe it's the fact that mandy moore is dying of lukemia...maybe cuz i don't understand how such a good-looking fellow like shane west can be sooo good looking...maybe it's just a really sentimental movie that i have to watch AGAIN because amelia kept laughing and cracking jokes when we watched it yesterday. mooo...

i'm trying to think of a good song that i can post...but my brain is mush and i'm tired...i think the lack of sleep part is catching up to me. oh brother. and dad doesn't believe i studied today. *sigh* when i study, he thinks i didn't study...when i do study, he thinks i didn't study...hmm...this is not working out in my favor...so now i'm gonna rest before i pass out...

MIAO! You're ALIVE!
ahahahaaaa....that was tanaka's first words to me on the phone today...apparently everyone's been under the impression that's i'd dropped off the face of the world! well...technically i did. after all, i'd been working all weekend on my anthropology essay on falun gong which was due monday and couple days after i was working on my geology building rocks assignment that was due today! I HAVE SURFACED FOR AIR! ;p

the funniest thing happened yesterday. you see, i went down to union station with karl on tuesday to scout around for rocks and we found some AMAZING stuff. well i went back yesterday with cahyee (i gave her a VERY NICE descriptive and informative tour) and i was taking pics of the rocks that i planned on using at the bce place when cahy tapped me on the shoulder and pointed behind me...a security officer! i was soooo scared that he was gonna kick us out and tell us we couldn't take any pics! but instead, he handed me back my eraser that i left from the day before (i didn't even realize i left it there) and said "you're the girl that came yesterday"...ahahahaaaa the SECURITY GUARD remembered me!!!! cahy laughed at me the whole time!

i made the mistake of mentioning to cahy that i own no dresses except my prom/formal dress. and she picked a dress off the hanger at jacob, shoved it in my face and said "GO. put that dress on NOW" and i did ...and i looked AWESOME in it! i was soooo surprised! so i bought a total of two dresses for $50 at jacob. one's a casual beige dress and the other's a black formal dress (perfect for the gala in october) and cahy was SOOO PLEASED with herself for converting another fellow chick into a girl!

so yes, i had tan lines from the day before so i wore one of cahyee's halters from american eagle! i love it! they actually even had a sale on those same halter tops...but they were all extra large...booooo...but it was funny because matt used to work there and all the sales people were like "aren't you matts...??" to cahy and she was like "yessss" and rolled her eyes! ;p oh...the halter didn't work...i still have WHITE tan lines....i can't believe i used to be sooo white! but there is PROOF!

ran into cesar today. he's such a nice guy! too bad he has a girlfriend of a year and a half! boo! j/j! he's such a hottie! and he was trying to teach me the techniques and everything about buying a car and how to check the oil and pump gas and check tire pressure! he's cool...he introduced me to this guy named ashley...he was cool too!

I am worth :$2,044,540.00. nice to know that i'm worth SOMETHING!!!

ahhhh! to relax my feet! i've been walking since 11am this morning! met up with karl at finch, went to union station, and looked at building rocks for 2 1/2 hours! had lunch at duke's at eaton centre then scooted down to castle frank where we JUST made it to our group! (can you imagine if we missed them?!?!?) had a NICE tour...but it was SOOO HOT! like a sauna! we were all perspiring (sweating...eww!) and all these beads of water all over us! for 3 HOURS!!!! we walked soooo much...walked to rosedale where carl (the other carl) and i went to some pub and i had 2 pepsi's and he had something to eat! good times!

ooh...and now i'm sun tanned! very very nice! i have bra lines! hahaha! but karl and i found some awesome looking building rocks...at the royal york are some BEAUTIFUL serpentine rocks...and the bce place had some AWESOME looking amonite fossils! mwahahaha! now i'm tired...gilmore girls it is!

Carl: "Ah, sweetheart, don't destroy it. I didn't mean to make fun of it. It's cute. Honest."
Annie: "It isn't meant to be cute. Now stop acting so silly, Carl, and get back to your torts."
Carl: "What torts? Tell me what torts? You are my tort; my one and only tort. The first time I laid eyes on you, I said to myself: She's the tortiest tort in the world. And she's for me."
hahahahaaaa.....i laughed myself silly reading this on the bus...i'm pretty sure the other ppl on the bus with me thought i was some sort of psycho maniac who laughs at herself...oh dear...and i tried SO very hard not to laugh! hahahah!!! oh oh! the tears in my eyes!

finally! i finished my essay at 2pm this afternoon...quite proud of it if i do say so myself...and i was on msn all nite and all day with cahyee helping her find stuff on the net and just being SUPPORT! so i was planning on going downtown right away so we could proof-read our papers when marko called...wow...i thought you forgot about me! ;p but apparently you didn't...he called thursday about the movie...but i missed the call! (stupid caller id! i sooo need to get it!) and so it was fun talking on the phone! heehee...marko's such a busy boy that i have to book dates with him in advance! ;p no prob!

"I work all night, I work all day, to pay the bills I have to pay
Ain't it sad
And still there never seems to be a single penny left for me
That's too bad
In my dreams I have a plan
If I got me a wealthy man
I wouldn't have to work at all, I'd fool around and have a ball...

Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world

A man like that is hard to find but I can't get him off my mind
Ain't it sad
And if he happens to be free I bet he wouldn't fancy me
That's too bad
So I must leave, I'll have to go
To Las Vegas or Monaco
And win a fortune in a game, my life will never be the same...

Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world"

abba

so i went downtown to look at rocks (buildings made from natural rocks) and found...nothing...eh...what a waste of time...but i'm going with karl tomorrow to union so maybe they'll be something good there! went over to wetmore and we went over our papers...yay! went to bbq's with cahyee for chicken fingers and fries...met up with her friend brady and HIS friend glen and it was all good! i think you've got a potential job offering there! hahaha...went to class, and then we went with isabelle to gabby's for chicken wings! hahaha!

why does it have to rain? i hope it doesn't rain tomorrow! i don't NEED to walk in the rain! oh! my stupid running shoes gave me blisters at the back of my heels and the left blister broke before i realized it! WHY?!?!? it's never done this to me before! my best friends! my SHOES! what have i done to you to make you do this to me?!?!? ugh...so i wonder what i'll wear tomorrow?!?!?

WOW....that's the best i could come up with...the number of ppl over at the downsview area...poor pilgrims...i woke up at 9:30am this morning to the sound of rain...i don't think anyone would have gotten much sleep last night...i stayed up watching the mass on tv...and then watched this morning's one too...the pope gives GREAT homily's...he may be old and tired...but he's still got that FIRE raging inside! he's still very sharp...he's sooo cool...and then after the mass (which took a VERY long time) he got on his blue helicopter and they flew near our house as he was going to st. jo's (haha...us abbey girls used to make fun of our rivals calling them st. ho's!!!!) and we were like...wow...and then went back to our pizza...i don't think i'm going to be forgetting this great event anytime soon...go to flo's blogger to read what she wrote...i almost cried reading it...

and she's right...i gotta finish this essay!!

so yesterday's green didn't really turn up good...oh well...TOUGH! highlight it! hello? didn't I read juju's blog when there were all these pics of julia stiles in the background? yes! so?!?!?

kirsten had this really great idea where we add our nicknames and if we're single/attached on our bios...it's soooo good...except...now i gotta email EVERYONE AGAIN and hassle...AGAIN....i hate hassling...it's soooo hasslie...ick...but whatever...as i said before...if you don't get me pics...it's gonna be powerpuff chick for you! ;p (i got that great idea off des' and jona's blog!)

why is the pope's head always craned to the side? i guess cuz he has all these divine stuff in his brain cavity and it's weighing the head down...hmmm...poor guy...all these ppl looking at him...i'd totally freak if all these ppl were looking at me...i mean...i couldn't even pick my nose...or a wedgie cuz then everyone would see...not that i do that or anything...

where's ames? at wonderland...with juju...girls...today is one of the muggiest days in a long time...ok...maybe not...but either way...as if you girls didn't get enough a tan on wednesday when you went to the golf tournament...now you're going for killer skin burning...mwahahahaha!!!

"On a September afternoon in 1961, a baby girl's first cry rang out. A new life had begun.
Her mama rocked her in her arms and she kissed the tiny brow.
And she said, 'Darling I'm just as scared as you. But I promise you somehow.

I will take care of you. The very best that I can.
With all of the love, here in my heart. All of the strength in my hands.
You're every joy I share. For every tear I shed my whole life through.
I will take care of you.'

On a September afternoon in 1985, that little girl had grown into a beautiful young bride.
And she turned to the man who held her hand, in front of the waiting crowd.
They smiled at each other as they spoke, and this was their wedding vow.
And they said..

'I will take care of you. The very best that I can.
With all of the love, here in my heart. All of the strength in my hands.
You're every joy I share. For every tear I shed my whole life through.
I will take care of you.'

On a September afternoon, in 1989, the girl waiting by a hospital bed, never leaving her mother's side.
She said, 'Mama, oh don't you close your eyes. Try to get some rest. It's my turn to take care of you. I learned from the best, I will take care of you.'

With all of the love, here in my heart. All of the strength in my hands.

faywood called this afternoon...she and tanaka spent the whole day trying to volunteer for wyd and they were told they could but then they couldn't get clearance from some police thingy and then they tried to go to the police station but it was closed (closed?!?!?) and then they called to see if i wanted to see austin powers 3 with them...except that i'd JUST gotten home from a whole day of teaching piano (from 8am) and doing mundane shopping with my parents....i'm soooo exhausted...i would have fallen asleep at MIIB except that we kept laughing at will smith's ears and the silly little wonky guys in the locker...but today...i have no energy...i've just printed 48 pages of font size 10 times new roman of these 9 articles for my essay that's due monday...now i hafta read it...oh boy...

at least i think i have a good topic...gotta do well in this class...so off i am to do some reading...and to watch the pope wave at ppl...we're sooo easily amused...

oh..and before i forget...i scanned in our pics from the other day...and i put it on my website...but now THAT'S not working...i wonder why...oh well...i'll wait till ames gets home before i bother her into helping me...yay...

omg! i'm sooooo tired! you'd think that the ONLY friday i get off of work i'd sleep in...but NOOOOOOO...mom decides that we take a trip down to the eaton centre with grandma...so who's up at 9am?!?!?! ME! ugh...and plus...the mall is filled with pilgrims from world youth day...yes yes...how terribly negligent i've been in not mentioning what's up with them...they've only been in town since tuesday...and i'm soooo proud of our mike allemano...yes...OUR mike...st.mike's MIKE! who works on strawberry island where the pope's been residing at and i do believe the newspaper says that he's met the pope....NICE!

i hate this....why are my parent's playing MJ at my cousins house when we should be at home....me in my nice nice bed....(dreaming....) grace is watching lolita...the old version...i think the guy is WAY too ugly...even jeremy irons in the newer film isn't that great looking...he wasn't bad in the musketeers...but i guess it's cuz he's not groping some girls that's 50 years younger or something...juju says i have a hollow head...she flicked my forehead and said "see? there's nothing in it"

flo has a blogger now too...it's under my favorite blogs...you gotta ask her what she means about the shrimp!!! hahahaaaa!!! that was CLASSIC!!! alright...i don't know what i'm talking about anymore...i'm going into the zone i think it has something to do with lack of sleep...oh and SHITES! i have to work at 8:45am tomorrow...damn damn damn....this is so stupid...who needs this in the summer?!?!?!?!?

and number 3.....now if only someone will drop zoo252 for me...

i can't believe i'm spending so much time with rosi...i hate you! i'll never ever ever think of loving you! you don't treat me right! i spend soooo much time and you keep rejecting me! what do you mean you have no space? ahhhh!!! what do you mean you're BUSY?!?!?! find TIME!

numero deux!

i'm STILL trying...i left the house at 7:55am to meet flo at eglinton...and we've gone to starbucks for sustanence and now we're at gersteins trying to get in...STILL

check out what time it is....i'm STILL trying to get on rosi...ugh...this is sooooo STUPID! i'm tired and COLD and they keep kicking me off and everyone's still on the login page! i keep telling myself that my comp cable is slowly making it's way throught the other mumble jumble pages to go through the bottleneck! I WILL SURVIVE! NOT!!!!

so i met these two REALLY NICE guys today...charlie and carl...haha...i was like...'charlie? as in charlie brown???' haha...they're really nice...3rd year software engineers...ENGINEERS BABY! how did we meet? ahhh...our WALKING TOUR today...hahaha...we walked along college st. looking at buildings and the structures and the materials they were made out of....and we walked to this one building and steve (the tour guide) was like...tell me what kind of rock you think this is...and we're TOTALLY trying to be smart and we're like...it's not sedimentary cuz there are no layers...not metamorphic...MUST be igneous! and steve's like...actually...no...it's just CONCRETE!!!!! damn...not smart ENUF!

so anthro class was SOOO boring today...who cares about the potlatch and stuff? i was soooo falling asleep...and now we have a stupid assignment to do that i need to research! bah! i'm so tired of looking up stupid stuff up on the internet...i know we're not allowed internet sources...but it's good to find exactly what you're looking for so when you go to the library it's easier to find!

luckily, tim saved me from tutorial and we trudged over to bloor and spadina, met up with ester....went to a suchi place and met up with mimi and jamie! it was good...except i had chicken wings at o'grady's with charlie and carl! hahaha....luckily...i've still got it! ;p

MRS. KIM: It’s early for you to be in bed.
LANE: I’m tired.
MRS. KIM: Come downstairs and have some tea.
LANE: No, thank you.
MRS. KIM: I know you’re upset but I have these rules for a reason. I’m your mother, I know what’s best for you.
LANE: Can we talk about this tomorrow please?
MRS. KIM: You see, this is exactly why I make these rules. You’re too young, too vulnerable. American boys have different values, they don’t understand respect, you get hurt. I do all of this so you don’t get hurt and now here you are hurt. I don’t like this, I don’t like this at all. Who is he, this boy who hurt you?
LANE: Henry Cho.
MRS. KIM: Cho?
LANE: Yes.
MRS. KIM: Cho sounds Korean.
LANE: It is Korean.
MRS. KIM: He was Korean?
LANE: Yes, and he was smart and wonderful and cute.
MRS. KIM: And – and you’re sure he was Korean?
LANE: He’s gonna be a doctor, he goes to church, he’s a counselor at Bible camp, and he liked me.
MRS. KIM: A doctor.
LANE: I’m so stupid. I should’ve just told you and I didn’t and now he’s gone and I’m just stupid.
MRS. KIM: Maybe I can call his mother.
LANE: I don’t want to talk about this anymore.
MRS. KIM: You’re sure he was Korean?

hahahaa....gilmore girls are CLASSIC! that is sooooo the scenario with my parents...except that i don't like asian guys!

juju is here...she and grace came over cuz their computer is fried from the lightning on sunday and grace scanned in these cool pics of steve and luke and crackbaby! and now she's gone home...but juju's STILL here...WHAT? she's STAYING OVER?!?!?!? aw MAN!!! j/j!

it's been my time of the month...i've been craving hash browns and tiramisu...and completely eating all the stuff i've been avoiding the past coupla weeks...and this just SUCKS! and now i have a headache...maybe it's cuz i left the tampons way more then the time recommended cuz i was lazy...that's what you get for being LAZY....no more...

especially now cuz i'm screwed cuz my exam today was sucky...it wasn't a BAD exam...just stupid...bleh...BUT i went over to st. mike's after and world youth day is JUST BEGINNING there! it's cool!

"Selling out
Is not my thing
Walk away
I won’t be broken again
I’m not
I’m not what you think
Dream away your life
Someone else’s dream
Nothing
Equals nothing
Letting go
Is not my thing
Walk away
Won’t let it happen again
I’m not
I’m not very smart
Why should I be sad
For what I never had
Nothing
Equals nothing
Turn to stone
Lose my faith
I’ll be gone
Before it happens"

now i'm going to do my readings...and calling ppl cuz i'm craving intelligent conversation! ;p

"Why shouldn't art be pretty? There are enough unpleasant things in the world."

Pierre-Auguste Renoir

i had THE BEST night in the LONGEST time...it was amazing...

taught piano in the morning from 9:15am to 2pm and then monica came by with queeni so i could show her around..queeni starts teaching next week and monica won't be here so she needs to know me cuz i'll be here. then went to richmond court at times square for a quick and late lunch and then went with mom, dad and ames to go shopping at costco.

went over to lauren's at 5pm to help her set up for her party aka bbq...lisa came over half an hour later with her brother david to help lauren with the lights for her garden. steph came first...pretty in a pink one strap top with a beautiful tan! she's as thin as always, if not, thinner (though she denies it) and lisa, steph and i hung out on the patio. john made it with his girlfriend jamie, and alex. omg! how long has it been since i've seen alex?!?!? by the way...alex looked REALLY good...and he was like 'wow! where have you been christina?' he's soo cute...maybe one day i'll tell him in his face...but right now i won't cuz that will make him all antsy...AGAIN! (inside...ask john or marko)

luke came with his friends, anthony (i know anthony! he came to lauren's b-day party at gabby's!) and jay (reminds me of the scottish dude in austin powers...he was sooo funnie!) and the party started...marko came soon after he finished watching a japanese movie with his sister (who's sick...caught it from him) and it was good times!

i know i know...everyone's like "kris...get to the good part...we KNOW there was a GOOD part" because anyone who stays out for 40 mins with marko...there has to be a good part...but that's for me to keep and tell ppl i want to tell...basically...this experience stays with me and marko

hmm...i have a mosquito bite on my elbow...it itches...

ooh...and before i forget...the hair looks great!

yesterday i ran down the basement stairs in the dark and tripped over our hot pink laundry detergent basket...and now i have a kickass bruise on my right leg...not to mention i have more mosquito bites...ewww

The Client

i finally decided on my posts and sat down to figure out what courses i'm taking...i'm majoring in biological anthropology and minoring in linguistics and physiology. it's gonna be a year of zoology, botany, linguistics and anthropology...yay? i actually wanted to do physiology instead of zoo but that time was taken by ant so problems, much? i spent a whooping 3 hours figuring this out last night before i finally went to bed at 2am...smart miau...really smart...and then i had a practical to do today which wasn't too bad...just LONG...i was basically falling asleep by the end of the day...

first of all...i have a plea to john's fellow workers...please...puhleeeeesse let him get the shift off on saturday! otherwise...go to hell...cuz he NEEDS to come up to have some fun with us! i haven't seen him in AGES!!! but yeh...apparently lauren's having a bbq on saturday and i think we need to have some fun in the sun! and yes...i didn't go to the movies cuz marko's been sick with food poisoning..among other things...i laughed at him and called him a stick! maybe i'm mean...maybe i'm teasing!

flo and i sat in the sauna for 8 mins today...my hair dripped all over the place...and the white towels turned purple...because janice came over this morning to try the hair thing again....and....nope...not working...so she's gone to buy some peroxide and more stuff today for another try tomorrow...i swear...one of these times it's gonna work...and it better happen soon cuz i don't want to drip all over the place...it's narsti...

gilmore girls tonite! yay! and i'm watching the princess diaries right now...you know what i WANT to watch? the client...i've been reading the book and it's great...i wanna see these lawyer movies...why? because of ames...that's why...that silly little girl's got me reading all these john grisham novels...ah....instead of studying...which i will be cracking out the books tomorrow morning...bleh

went to gabby's with kirsten, des and david last night...yay half-priced honey garlic chicken wings! mmmmmmhh....which totally reminds me...i have to do my readings cuz we hafta hand in a thought of the week tomorrow...argh....i'm losing focus here...i want fun in the sun!

i don't remember what i did sunday...maybe i became comatose...who knows?

Memories #66
"ah...formal nite...i was ALMOST so late that i almost missed the last bus...but i made it...with my formal date...JOEL! yeh...it was sooo much fun...joel got so completely drunk (well...it was the most drunk he'd ever been anyway) and he thought that he was disgrace to me...and i kept telling him he wasn't! ;p but we had awesome fun time...everyone was there and it was open bar so every one was getting pretty smashed! a nite to remember!"

i went over to janice's house next door and we did my hair...but but i don't think anything worked...so off to shoppers tomorrow and i'll grab some new stuff for next tuesday! hopefully something good will happen then! ;p at least my parents can stop freaking out! they're out at a pool and bridge party in mississauga somewhere...and they were pretty ok with handing me and ames $40, a blockbuster card, a free pizza pizza coke coupon and letting us do what we had to do!

we rented 'the firm' and watched it eating honeydew...and that was sooo much fun! hahaa....i recognized ed harris...he's VERY bald in the movie...his head is pretty bumpy! and the girl, tammy...i recognized her in another movie with kiefer sutherland...it's nice to recognize ppl in movies! grace has been doing cool extra work so hopefully she'll meet someone famous soon!

ames had our pics developed while i taught this morning...and the pics came out really cool...there were pics with me and the abbey chicks when we went to pizza hut...there were the pics when i was with the asian gang (as fran calls us) when we went to that bar on yonge and finch for christian and ava's belated birthday...and a random pic of me and mom...just to finish the film...ahaha...which reminds me...i should load the camera for tomorrow...heheheeee...

oh yeh...here's some of the pics that were developed... MIAU!

i had the weirdest dream last nite...i dreamed that my grandma wanted hash browns and asked my sister to get them for her...and then my sister decided she wanted some too....like...FOUR...and then i got jealous, stole the whole package and ate it myself...weirdness much? but yes...in case you didn't get the gist of it....i do LOVE hash browns! if i could choose what i'd eat on an island...it would be hash browns...and yes...my grandma DID buy them....and i hate them both (her and mom) for telling me that we have em in the freezer...because i'm ELMING....thanx to juju...ELM (eat less movement) and i'm not quite sure it's working....

"I don't want to understand this horror
There's a weight in your eyes that I can't
admit
Everybody ends up here in bottles
But the name tags the last thing that you
wanted
As the world explodes we fall out of it
But we can't let go because this
Will not go away
There's a house built out in space...
I can't see that thief that lives inside of
your head
But I can be some courage at the side of
your bed
I don't know what's happening and I
won't pretend
But I can be your....

Someone help us understand who
ordered
This disgusting arrangement with time
and the end
I don't want to hear who walked on
water
Because the hallways are empty and the
clock ticks"

our lady peace

monica built a new room...yay...but it's messy in the studio now...ah well...
i'm going to sleep...jogging tomorrow morning....time to DIE! ;p ahahahahaaaaaa...that's for ames!

today was absolutely classic! ;p worked out in the morning before i went to class...so i was 5 mins late...but it was alright because karl said the prof has computer problems...and plus i got smart...i printed the notes off the net BEFORE so all i had to do was LISTEN to the prof and take additional notes...instead of what i HAD been doing which was taking the notes and missing the other stuff...nice going! ;p

after class karl came with me to meet up with tanaka and karina...tanaka came from work in a black top, cream colored mini skirt and hot pink shoes...note this!...and we went to maddy's where we had chicken wings and chicken fingers and french fries! karl went to class and we went to the PARK! ahahahaaa....that was PRICELESS!!! seeing tanaka trying to get over the park fence with her cream colored skirt! karina dared her to go over the fence...and she did...and she got stuck half way and then karina and i left her to walk around and go through the gate...and then tanaka took off her hot pink shoes and went in her stalking feet (pantyhose) and we played on the swings and tanaka sat in a duck that was WAY too small for her! got stuck and karina dumped her out afterwards!

so tanaka wanted to buy pants because she didn't like her skirt anymore and we walked along bloor to yonge st. where we stopped off at the gap and karina and i came out with these AWESOME new jean capris! hahaha...we look AMAZING in em! and tanaka didn't buy anything and was upset...so we went to le chateau on yonge and still she couldn't find anything...but i bought this cool black top that apparently will make jaws drop! nice! we finally found these nice cream pants for tanaka on one of those little stores along yonge and i went with tanaka to downsview to go home...get this...she SITS in something wet along the bloor-danforth line and it looks like she sat in something brown....can you imagine?!?!?!? it took HOW long to find pants and then she sits on something? completely classic! but it's fine by downsview! and that was my DAY! ;p

ok...that was sooo funnie! i finished my tutorial class with cahyee where we answered questions...it was fun! and then i walked with her to new college and then we were talking outside for about 5 mins...and then she tried calling her boyfriend matt, while i called my mom...and then she turned around...and there he was! he'd watched us for 5 mins...while we were making our silly gestures and movements! and he totally made fun of us! i like matt...if i ever get a boyfriend...i'd shape him after matt!

and then during class...i was sitting with jonathon and listening to the professor...and then a little fly came by and jonathon tried to stomp on it...and then lady infront kept turning around and glaring at us! ooops! ;p ester came to class with tim today! they are SOOOO CUTE!!!! awww! OH and before i forget even more....HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY JAY!!!!!! it was monday...and thanx for ester for telling me! ;p

"Kiss me, out of the bearded barley
Nightly, beside the green, green grass
Swing, swing, swing the spinning step
You wear those shoes and I will wear that dress

Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight
Lead me out on the moonlit floor
Lift your open hand
Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance
Silver moon’s sparkling, so kiss me

Kiss me down by the broken tree house
Swing me upon its hanging tire
Bring, bring, bring your flowered hat
We’ll take the trail marked on your father’s map"

sixpence none the richer

working out at the gym is HARD work...but if you get killer abs and lose the chupas...i guess anything's worth it! ;p

i'm soooo very tired...
- john called while i was jogging and when i picked up the phone i was heaving...and he thought...god....lets not go into what he thought! ;p
- so yes...jogging makes you tired
- class was cool today...talking about the minerals and gemstones! but man...ms. kemp talks WAY TOO MUCH!
- carl and i have decided that we're gonna go visit the rocks at the ROM sometime
- ames is having a fit in the shower because the way our water system works is that if someone turns on the water...you get a cold shower....and she doesn't like it...DUH!
- watching an absolutely cool movie called 'THE GREAT LIE' with bette davis playing in it! I LUV CLASSICS!
- watched gilmore girls today...repeat that i've seen but it's great when you're working out ;p

THE THINGS I DO FOR BLOGGER! DAMN IT....I WROTE A BLOG AND THEN IT DIDN'T POST AND DELETED...NOW I'M WRITING IT AGAIN!!!!!

so....i'm EXTREMELY HAPPY! so this doesn't really piss me off! i've been grinning like a fool since i read my email at gerstein...i think i floated through air all the way to smcsu where chris was on the phone with lisa and kirsten was reading her email and the office looked AWESOME! furniture's in and the walls are great!

kirsten and i went to gabby's for half-price chicken wings! and we had an AWESOME conversation on our boy situations! ahahahaa...me and bobo and her and derek! and everything is sooo clear to me now and it's all good! ;p

"From the picture on the wall
Till the bedpost that touch them all
This is where I live
This is where I do my screaming

How do you say I love you in so many other ways
This is where I live
This is what I do best

Dreaming in so much ugliness
Waking up to all that beautiful blue
Beautiful you

From the time I walked in
To the point we’re both arguing
This is how I feel
This is where I start screaming
How could you say
I’ve always felt this way
This is where I live
This is what I do best

Dreaming in so much ugliness
Waking up to all that beautiful blue
Beautiful you"

Holly McNarland

john called yesterday...right before the blackout...hold on i'll get to it in a sec...and it was soooo good to hear from him...JOHN I MISS YOU!!!! but he's sooooo busy! mr. popular! he's holding 3 jobs and tentatively seeing like 5 girls! pulling a mr. smooth! ;p

so yeh...the blackout...the reason i didn't blog yesterday....i just sent an email to my friend marko and was in the process of one to amin and it went out....ugh....why couldn't it wait? and then it was out for like an hour...so i went to bed...and now i'm tired...i don't know why...maybe it's cuz i had such an awesome workout today...ran into lily wong! the website for smcsu looks awesome lily! thanx for all the hard work! ;p

ahahaa...class was hilarious! we watched movies the entire 2 hours...and there's this movie where the dude is soooo retarded! i kept poking fun at him and making jonathon laugh! that's the best! yay!

i'm sooooo tired...who's the loser that got up at 7:30am this morning to go jogging with her dad and sister? ME so we jogged in the park...not too bad...actually...it was VERY cool...i'm going to make this a habit..cuz...i usually jog at the gym or on our treadmill at home...it's good to get some fresh air! ahhhh!

we went to the markville mall today and i couldn't believe it! i ran into lisa and andrea! i was at smartset trying on some clothes and my mom was doing the purchasing (thanx mom) and i'm completely zoning...when...i hear 'well hello there ms. miao!' and i see lisa's face! it was fun! so we chilled a bit!

and now i'm completely frustrated cuz i'm trying to put pics up on my webpage but it's not working...or rather...the pics or HUMONGUOUS...i just want tiny ones....ugh...

does anyone remember bobo? bobo...the guy i'm not supposed to be obsessing anymore...but unfortunately i still am....i was chatting with flo today and we were talking about him...duh! and she was like...why don't you get his icq or msn? and i'm like...i can't... and then just for fun i looked him up on icq by email...and OMG! he's there! so what do you do? i'm not gonna do anything cuz i'm not a stalker...just an obsesser....ugh...so i'm freaking and i'm talking with kirsten...and ...i love kirsten cuz she just totally calmed me down....

this is how he makes me feel:

"Are you aware of what you make me feel, baby
Right now I feel invisible to you, like I'm not real
Didn't you feel me lock my arms around you
Why'd you turn away?
Here's what I have to say
I was left to cry there, waiting outside there
Burning with a lost stare
That's when I decided

Why should I care
'Cuz you weren't there when I was scared
I was so alone
You, you need to listen
I'm starting to trip, I'm losing my grip
And I'm in this thing alone"

avril lavigne

and now i'm not gonna care cuz i'm gonna watch tv and go to sleep...

Memories #65
"our formal coordinator and fellow non-smcsu-but-almost-like-one-of-us buddie, mr. mike qwadrans! thank you thank you thank you for the awesome job you did for our formal! it was a smashing success! of course...with help from fellow formal coordinator maria! big hand for the two of you! and then there's me, flo, lisa, lauren...and the other ppl that slaved away selling tickets to the day..."

tomorrow i'll do a memory about the actual formal evening...

so i called up smcsu out a fit of boredom and cuz i was pissed at my mom cuz i got to work late...ugh...and polish paul picks up the phone...hey paul! and he's there with quadrans, and holly...and i dunno who else! but it's been such a long time since i've seen mike...and after all, he's formally graduated from u of t...awwwww....so i won't be seeing HIM frequently next year! =(

"I didn't hear you leave, I wonder how am I still here,
I don't want to move a thing, it might change my memory
Oh I am what I am, I'll do what I want, but I can't hide
I won't go, I won't sleep, I can't breathe, until you're resting here with me
I won't leave, I can't hide, I cannot be, until you're resting here with me
I don't want to call my friends, they might wake me from this dream
And I can't leave this bed, risk forgetting all that's been
Oh I am what I am, I'll do what I want but I can't hide
I won't go, I won't sleep, I can't breathe until you're resting here with me
I won't leave, I can't hide, I cannot be, until you're resting here with me."

Dido

ran into ester today! she's awesome! oooh!!! do i see something going on btw you and tim? we'll see! it was great meeting alan and alex...tho...it WAS a scorcher today! we were all wilting!

went shopping with viv in this heat wave and i found a very nice two piece bathing suit....for sunday...IF it's still on...it will be a HUGE waste of beautiful swimming material! and viv found this cute top! and it's cheap cheap cheap! yay! she also found a nice bathing suit too but she was debating whether to get it and didn't...and then while we were working out at the AC she decided that she DID want it and wanted to jog over to buy it....YEH RIGHT....NO!

and then i was SUPPOSED to meet moshe but i think he doesn't check his email often enough so that didn't happen...ugh...

"And she takes another step
Slowly she opens the door
Check that he is sleeping
Pick up all the broken glass and furniture on the floor
Been up half the night screaming
Now it’s time to get away
Pack up the kids in the car
Another bruise to try and hide
Another alibi to write

And there are children to think of
Baby’s asleep in the backseat
Wonder how they’ll ever make it through this living nightmare
But the mind is an amazing thing
Full of candy, dreams and new toys and another cheap hotel
Two beds and a coffee machine
But there are groceries to buy and she knows that she’ll have to go home

Another ditch in the road you keep moving
Another stop sign you keep moving on
And the years go by so fast
I wonder how I ever made it through"

"frat carl...i love hearing stories about how he disappeared the 2nd semester of his first year because he joined a frat...and dropped off the face of the earth...and then re-emerged this year alive and kicking!"

ahahahaaa....i LOVE JESSE!!!! damn smart ass kid in the world! you go get rory!!! if you don't know what i'm talking about then you suck...

"one is the loneliest number that you'll ever do
two can be as bad as one
it's the loneliest number since the number one
'no' is the saddest experience you'll ever know
yes it's the saddest experience you'll ever know
because one is the loneliest number that you'll ever do
one is the loneliest number that you'll ever know

it's just no good anymore since you went away
now i spend my time just making rhymes of yesterday
because one is the loneliest number that you'll ever do
one is the loneliest number that you'll ever know
one is the loneliest number
one is the loneliest number that you'll ever do
one is the loneliest number much much worse then two
one is the number divided by two"

WHO IS JACK SCHITT???
The lineage is finally revealed. Many people are at a loss for a response when someone says "You don't know Jack Schitt!" Read on and you'll be able to handle the situation intelligently.

Jack is the only son of Awe Schitt and O. Schitt. Awe Schitt, the fertilizer magnate, married O. Schitt, a partner of Kneedeep & Schitt, Inc.

Jack Schitt married Noe Schitt, and the deeply religious couple begat 6 children: Holie Schitt, Fulla Schitt, Giva Schitt, Bull Schitt, and the twins, Deap Schitt and Dip Schitt.

Against her parents' wishes, Deap Schitt married Dumb Schitt, a high school dropout.

After 15 years of marriage, Jack & Noe Schitt divorced. Noe Schitt later married a Mr. Sherlock, and out of devotion to her children, decided to hyphenate her last name, and became Noe Schitt-Sherlock.

Dip Schitt married a woman named Loda Dung, who became Loda Schitt. The couple produced a nervous son, Chicken Schitt.

Fulla Schitt and Giva Schitt, inseperable thoughout childhood subsequently married the Happens brothers. The local newspaper announced the Schitt-Happens wedding, which was quite an event. The Schitt-Happens children were Dawg, Byrd, and Hoarse.

Bull Schitt, the prodigal son, left home to tour the world. He returned from his travels with his Italian bride, Piza Schitt.

So, NOW if someone says "You don't know Jack Schitt", you can beg to differ. You not only know Jack Schitt, but the entire Schitt list!

so i'm cleaning out my email inbox...putting everything into folders and deleting stuff and everything is so much neater and...less messy...and i've somehow made my friends folders into a whole bunch of other names like....summer gurlz, elmsley boys, rehab ppl, course buddies and abbey chicks...hehe...i'm ingenious...or i could be utterly bored....

lisa came over this afternoon and we watched some of her home videos (aka...party videos) and it was lotsa fun except for the motion sickness part...i HATE getting motion sick...how do you watch those videos and not want to throw up after? ugh...but i DID see deans drunk...man...you're FUNNIE! and then we walked to the park, sat on some swings...and talked about a whole lot of stuff that's going on...hmmm...it's good being out in the sun!

ames went to kate's house and i think they went to see a movie...cool beans...and i've been watching tv and catching up (FINALLY) on some readings...oh yeh...new class tomorrow...yay? i just want to lie on the beach and soak up some rays...but wait! we gotta work on the chupas!

Memories #61
"playing jitz (the table soccer game) in the lounge with felix, jason, rocko, maritzio and anyone else who knows how to play...jason is THE jitz master...he taught me how to play...without cheating! (making the handles turn really fast), doing corner shots and sharp angles...i'm not at all good...but i can hold my own!"

so i ran into maritzio this afternoon just as he was leaving fairview and my fam was getting there (we're looking for amelia's keys...) and he came over, pecked me on the cheek while i hugged him and we talked for a coupla mins...including how brazil won...he was wearing a brazilian shirt! it's good to see him! and i love the fact that i totally didn't expect him to kiss me on the cheek...and my sister and my dad came by after and my sister was laughing at me...blah...

met up with my cousins at costco...lots of water! good stuff...and then went to their house...where my rents, grandma and my uncle played MJ while we went to scarborough town centre to shop for grace's outfits...she's a nutty cuz! and then we watched the rest of metropolis...man...the graphics are completely intense...especially when tima's face started melting...ewwww....but yeh...and then we watched 'the fifth element'...yea bruce willis! i love that movie!

but yeh...i need to go now...but it's so much fun to blog at the same time as i'm holding 5 conversations with tanaka, karina, frances, fraser and flo! this is fun...but yes...i gotta go now!

Memories #60
"ian and his cutie gf jennie! they make the cutest couple i've ever seen! and they're always at brennan making out! ah...to be in a relationship like that....something i dream about all the time...you guys are my idols!"

so i just got home from grace and jules...grace will be an extra on a new tv show called 'monk' and she'll be filming next week tuesday to friday...can you say cool? i'll get her signature soon so i can be like 'so yeh...this is my famous cousin grace!'....soon! and ames is out with mom and dad...retrieving her jacket she left behind yesterday at the buffet that we went to...where jules was on ELM (eating less movement) and it was difficult for her to splurge on food...

met up with fayewood and tanaka at yorkdale where we went to orfus rd. to do some awesome shopping! i love shopping with my girls! we grab tons of clothes and model it infront of each other! got some amazing stuff for great prices! i love shopping cheap...see what you can do with so little money! and tanaka was driving her boat of a car...and went over some bump and broke the steel pipe that connects her right back wheel with the rest of the car...i'm amazed that we're all still alive! that's a reck of a car...it has two HUGE cracks going through the windshields of the car...and scratches and dents like there's no tomorrow...ahahaaa...tanaka's boat...

"Just say you'll love me for the rest of your life
I gotta lotta love and I don't want to let go
Will you still love me for the rest of my life?

'Cause I can't go on
No, I can't go on
I can't go on
If I'm on my own"

Chicago

i'm tired...watched some 'metropolis' with grace at their house...i love the awesome effects of anime! there was this really cool scene where there was a fire in the sewers...and these robotic firefighters come...and it's just soooo cool! you gotta see it to understand! well...i guess i'll go and watch some 'laputa' now...

"Why do we mess up exams?
A year has 365 days for you to study. After taking away 52 Sundays, here are only 313 days left. There are 50 days in the summer that is way too hot to work so there are only 263 days left. We sleep 8 hours a day, in a year, that counts up to 122 days so now we're left with 141 days. If we fooled around for only 1 hour a day, 15 days are gone, so we are left with 126 days. We spend 2 hours eating each day, 30 days are used in this way in the year, and we are left with 96 days in our year. We spend 1 hour a day speaking to friends and family, that takes away 15 days more and we are left with 81 days. Exams and tests take up at least 35 days in your year, hence you are only left with 46 days. Taking off approximately 40 days of holidays, you are only left with 6 days. Say you are sick for a minimum of 3 days, you're left with 3 days in the year to study! Let's say you only go out for 2 days! You are left with 1 day! But that 1 day is your birthday... so... Good luck to everyone on your exams."

"my good friend, cesar...whom i met in chemistry class...but was also in my bio class...when i first met him, i was like 'cesar? as in cesar salad?'...very very good looking...has a hoop earing on his left ear and looks like a giant cuddle monster in the winter cuz of his huge ass white jacket that he wears! ...known for studying at kelly bundy library for hours while i'm shopping for sparkles in my hair...and loves eating microwavable dinners!"

so yeh...ran into cesar today...he was the second person i ran into before my final today...first it was winsion at the street corner of lash miller and sid smith...he'd just finished a 2nd yr chem exam and going to work late...ahahaha...you're welcome for making you even later! it's good to see him...he's my brother...the brother i never had....and then cesar...who was waiting with his friends for his physics class to start...and then just inside mclennan i ran into garland who'd just finished his astronomy exam...cool...

so yeh...the final was pretty long...who knew it would be so long? it wasn't necessarily DIFFICULT...just kinda tedious...i don't know what the prof was thinking...a short ans section and a short essay section...each worth 8 marks each...so who is she kidding? it's the SAME THING!!! ugh...so we'll see how i'll be doing...

and met up with karina and charysse...went to maddys...tried to study but drama queen charysse discovered a cut on her arm and just went on and on and on and on about it and how it wouldn't stop bleeding and blah blah blah...so i left....and then charysse left her sunglasses there...poor cha! and karina's dating a bsb wannabe! that's classic! ahahahaaaaa! ok...my bad...so you're not necessarily DATING him...but maybe you're seeing him! and from the sound of it...he's totally in love with you! too bad connie didn't get to him! ;p

"Say hello
Remain
Close to me
No goodbye suicide mystery

The rat in your brain
Turns a wheel
Connected to your guts and
All your thoughts are in me,
All your faults in me

What would you say
If we lived on TV
Besides all the things they told you

We're stuck
Inside our own machine
Apparations

Say hello
Well is it strange
Where you are
Where you used to be kind of free
Are they laughing at you

The rat in your brain
Rules the world
From the comfort of your living room
Tell me are we leaving soon

We're stuck
Inside our own machine
Apparations"

matthew good band

so i'm on the subway and i have nothing better to do so i do what i like best....observe ppl...discreetly...and these are my subway observations:
a guy with a bag that still has a tag on it...now...there's 4 ways you can look at this...
1. it's a stolen bag...
2. he just bought it and hasn't cut the tag off yet...
3. he doesn't REALIZE that the tags still on it...
4. it's stolen...

there's a very cute little girl with a guy i'm assuming to be her father...and he had a very fuzzy beard which reminded me what jonathon told me yesterday...which was that guys who sport beards are usually smart...ahahaa...

there was a guy wearing a hawaiian shirt and sunglasses...who insists on hanging on the bars overhead when there's TONS of seats to sit in...just thinking how silly he is...or something to that effect...

and then on the bus ride home...i had ass in my face...how disgusting is that...ewwwwww...but he got off at yonge and steeles so that was better...

it's so sad that my linguistics friends are all dispersing...chris is going to europe and i don't know where everyone else is going...susan goes to erindale...and sam and fraser will be around i guess...same with arash...still...i miss em...

and john misses me...he called me to tell me...how sweet...too bad i wasn't home when he called and i called him back and tagged him...IT! and joel told me a silly story and i fell for it...meh...now i'm tired and wanna watch JKX...

Memories #58
"winter carnival was 3 days...one of the three days included going over to trinity for a bbq and vodka melons...went with frances, christian, flo, and edward...we were all soooo intimidated by these hugely intellectual ppl...but we eventually ate in their huge dining hall...and then the vodka melons...quite good...but our vodka jello was MUCH better!"

and so...i burned my finger this morning...i picked up the tray that was in the toaster oven (cuz i'm usually the first one to use it) and held it with two fingers for about 5 secs before my fingers sent my brain the neurons that FINALLY activated my much delayed reaction...'OW! that hurts!' ....and drop it...but it's ME so i just finish toasting my bagel, eat it, and then go to my mom...'mom? what do you use for burns?' and she's like 'what did you do?' and i'm like 'i think i burned my finger' and she's like 'you're silly...i'll put some aloe vera cream on it for you'...something to THAT effect...and then i had a huge chunk of white lotion stuff on it cuz she over squirted...but it was good cuz my finger went kinda numb and it's better now...except if you press it really HARD...;p

"If you don't know me by now (If you don't know me)
You will never never never know me (No you won't)
If you don't know me by now
You will never never never know me"

Harold and the blue notes

it HAD to rain today...i HAD to get wet...it HAD to be warm sticky, damn humid weather...i HAD to wear a tanktop...ok...i'm done...

wait! i'm not! tutorial was fun cuz jonathon and i kept writing little notes on the edges of our papers about this guy named mike who ALWAYS has something to say...like an opinion...and he just kept going and going and going...like the energizer bunny...hmm...like me...but not really....i kinda shut up in tutorials...

Memories #57
"john and his rendezvous with these two girls, cecilia and tanya...i've met cecilia and she's really nice and everything...i HAVEN'T met tanya...but from all the stories i hear...;p apparently she has very aggressive tendencies...bothers alex too! awww...but yeh...we all have our fun!"

today was no work and all fun...damn...gotta sit down and study linguistics tonite...blah...but yeh...because ames slept over at juju's, i had the whole house to myself this morning...mom and grandma went out on their weekly ritual of shopping...always tuesdays! and i was sleeping sooo nicely...but flo woke me up at 9am...what?!?!?! she's like 'MORNING! oh! did i wake you up?' ...it's ok...but after that i couldn't go back to sleep but watched 'saving silverman' instead...

i was SUPPOSED to work out with flo...but it didn't work cuz chickie's sick...awww...get well! so i went down and spent the day at the office...i lied...kirsten and i went to the varsity and went to see 'the bourne identity' which was pretty good...tho...what julia stiles was doing in that movie i don't know...she was kinda outta place...meh...and then we went back to the office and painted the bottom part of the office a dark shade of blue...spent 2 hrs doing that...who said painting wasn't hard work? we wore these blue crew pants...(i borrowed mine from deans....ok ok! so i didn't ask to borrow...i TOOK them...) and it wasn't bad...but we weren't very even in our painting...whatever...we hafta do a second coating anyway...so deans will do that TOMORROW....

lisa called and had her dreams book with her so we were trying to figure out the dreams kirsten and i had...the other nite i dreamt that i went to get my hair cut and they cut it soooo short...almost bald...and i freaked out...and then it miraculously grew back...but only the outter part...so underneath it was still really short...and i woke up...and looked in the mirror and sighed a HUGE sigh of relief....man...no hair....nutty...and then lisa told me that it meant that all my relationships from now on would be a HUGE work to do...damn...no easy relationships...and kirsten took a nap in the office this morning and dreamt that deans was mentally retarded with really short hair...and he REALLY did cut his hair....REALLY REALLY SHORT!

it was really funny because he didn't want us to see how short it was...so he wore a baseball cap...and then he was making fun of carlo, who then whipped his cap off...and then he freaked and pulled half his shirt over his head and looked like ET or something...it was HILARIOUS! and then he had a huge fire lighter in his hand...(note...NEVER let deans hold flamable or cuttable items...he's very dangerous...) and kirsten made a crack about lighting the teabag that's on the ceiling on fire (again...the teabag on the ceiling BECAUSE of deans) and HE LIT THE TEABAG ON FIRE....it was soooo freaky! thank god he didn't set the building on fire...i swear...he WILL succeed one day...and then there will be no st. mikes...just a pile of ashes! ;p

"I just want to let you know
This was your time
You went away and it seems the days all fade into night
But you'll be alright, I know it
Cause I've got an angel watching me"

Joee

FINALLY got a hold of john yesterday...he's sooo busy...cuz he's always out partying...he still wants me to come down and sleep over sometime...haha...nice try! but i believe he's coming up again sometime next wk! YES!!! we'll go karaoking or something...yay!

Memories #56
"as lisa puts it...the crazy hot day that she, i and lauren (bad english) went to study at kelly bundy library for our exams....unfortunately we got absolutely NOTHING done...and just pictures of us eating!"

first of all...in the last blog...i meant ACC...but too lazy to change that...

secondly...yesterday i was too tired to blog...basically my cousins grace and jules came over and our parents and my grandma played MJ for a coupla hours...then juju, grace, ames and my uncle went shopping at yorkdale and left me at home because i was on the phone with lisa which was JUST FINE...we were discussing everything and anything under the sun...good times! then i spent some time on msn chatting with polish paul....watched some 'vatel' a really cool french movie with gerard depardieu and uma therman!

went out for dinner cuz we were celebrating my grandma's 88th b-day! yay grandma! she's on a roll! and it was sooo totally funnie...because my cousin's been having problems with this guy named david...and at the restaurant ....my aunt spilled the teapot completely upside down...right on the side of the table where grace and i were sitting...and the waiter came to clean up the mess...and he was being all smooth and all...and then i took a look at his name tag and it said 'david' and i poked grace and pointed...and she looked and then we both burst out laughing....always problems with davids...of course...it sounds odd when i type it out....it's one of those situations where you have to have been there to have laughed your ass off!

reina and erica were there too! they're getting sooo big! i forgot how old they are...isn't that awful? but erica's 5 and reina's 8 this year! man...i feel OLD now...i remember when WE used to look up to ruth and alice!

and today i walked with my sister to shoppers and then we went into winners...and then she had to go back home (she was buying the newspaper) and lisa and lauren came to pick me up...went downtown and workout out...and had our DELICIOUS lunch at spaha at around 3:30pm....i know...we take SOOO long in the showers and makeup and stuff! we're such girls! ;p

went with flo to gerstein where she did her work and i studied till class time where my new anthopology prof was really good but really boring...i kept passing notes with tim and jonathon...here's an excerpt from jonathon's notes:
me: =) have you had your kit kat today?
j: no, it's fattening
me: true...but i believe that if you had one, you might not fall asleep in class because you'd have a sugar high
j: i suppose so, but i wouldn't be able to concentrate knowing that the sugar is turning to fat while we sit here and pass notes ;p

lovely class, no?

oh look at the time...time to call joel...silly boy...who wants to watch wrestling so i hafta call him at 11...

"You ask me if I love you
And I choke on my reply
I'd rather hurt you honestly
Than mislead you with a lie

And who am I to judge you
On what you say or do?
I'm only just beginning to see the real you

And sometimes when we touch
The honesty's too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide

I wanna hold you 'til I die
'Til we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides"

dan hill

john and i are like playing phone tag...i'd call him and he's not home or he's busy...and he calls me and i'm not home and i hafta call him back...hopefully i'll be in touch with him tomorrow...come to think of it...same with joel...but with joel it's all jokes...he's ok with shari now...and i need to know what's up with tammy! ;p

"me and kirsten, counselors for smcsu...organizing cool events....like clothing sales! helping out with formal...now kirsten's prez! yay! this is tribute to her!"

last class for linguistics...how sad...all my new friends will be going their separate ways...no longer stuck together in our class...and we're all getting really really friendly now...just today, our prof let us out an hour early...and a group of us, me, susan, sam, arash, fraser and chris...we went and chilled at the starbucks on st. george and college...and it was so enlightening how the six of us just sat and chatted about politics and different backgrounds and cultures and discussed some really cool things...i felt SOOO grown up and university-like...

"Everything's so blurry
and everyone's so fake
and everybody's empty
and everything is so messed up
pre-occupied without you
I cannot live at all
My whole world surrounds you
I stumble then I crawl

You could be my someone
you could be my sea
you know that i'll protect you
from all of the obscene
I wonder what you're doing
imagine where you are
there's oceans in between us
but that's not very far

Can you take it all away
can you take it all away
well ya shoved it in my face
this pain you gave to me
Can you take it all away
can you take it all away
well ya shoved it my face

Everyone is changing
there's noone left that's real
to make up your own ending
and let me know just how you feel
cause I am lost without you
I cannot live at all
my whole world surrounds you
I stumble then I crawl

You could be my someone
you could be my sea
you know that i will save you
from all of the unclean
I wonder what you're doing
I wonder where you are
There's oceans in between us
but that's not very far

[Chorus]

Nobody told me what you thought
nobody told me what to say
everyone showed you where to turn
told you when to runaway
nobody told you where to hide
nobody told you what to say
everyone showed you where to turn
showed you when to runaway

[Chorus]

This pain you gave to me

You take it all
You take it all away...
This pain you gave to me
You take it all away
This pain you gave to me
Take it all away
This pain you gave to me"

"bio with dez, anne marie and jho....'hey guys! over HERE guys!'....'oooh! look! there's dez! lets WAVE!!!'...drawing funny faces on each other's notes...crossing OUT stuff in our notes (JHO!) ..."

i did something today that i should have done weeks ago...and now that it's over...i feel so much better...tho...i also feel really mean and guilty...but really...keep stringing it along? no...might as well do it now...i tried...but it wasn't working...but...now i can concentrate more easily...on someone else...

"let me sleep
for when i sleep i dream that you are here
you're mine
and all my fears are left behind
i float on air
the nightingale sings gentle lullabys
so let me close my eyes

and sleep
a chance to dream
so i can see the face i long to touch
to kiss
but only dreams can bring me this

so let the moon
shine softly on the boy i long to see
and maybe when he dreams
he'll dream of me

i hide beneath the clouds
and whisper to the evening star
and tell me love is just a dream away
dream away....
i'll dream away

so let the moon
shine softly on the boy i long to see
and maybe when he dreams
he'll dream of me"

"joe figueiredo and has blue baseball cap with a red squiggily thingy on it...and sometimes his poppy...that's the only way i know it's him! and plus he gets me ice cream from the canada room!"

i really shouldn't be blogging right now...i've got an assignment due AND a midterm tomorrow...the assignment's not too bad...i've got all the info...just need to weed out what i need and don't need...won't take too long...and i basically KNOW my stuff for the midterm...just gotta review...

oh well! lisa picked me up at 10am this morning...can you say insane? and then we picked lauren up from her grandma's house and they were VERY sad because italy lost to south korea because of so called 'bad' refereeing...i can't opinionate because i don't follow soccer and i didn't see the game...

parked at st. mikes and walked to the AC for our workout...passed the cross that was going around for world youth day...touched it...and kept on going...WHAT? was i supposed to suddenly become a non-sinner or something afterwards? eh...a wooden cross...a cross that was carried over to st. mike's at the same time as we finished our rowing and stairs and weights...and flo, deans, kirsten, katelyn and some other kids were lifting it...father terry said a coupla words and then it was on its way again...

group of 7...went to gabby's...me, flo, kirsten, lisa, lauren, katelyn...and carlo...hehe...MACDADDY! oooh...inside joke! it was soooooo funny because we ordered food and then i started teaching the girls how to make orgami roses...and by the end....only kirsten and katelyn made one...it's just tooo difficult! went to summer's for ice cream and on the way...flo saw vera wang...called it vera wong...and ran INTO the store...too bad none of us followed her in...carlo went to get her...we just kept on going! ;p flo...you're nutty...

met up with marko at around 5pm...he came to check out the very messy office...and then we trekked around campus...he took me to see the engineering buildings...and we went to one of the common rooms...and it was completely cleaned out because they were moving to a new building...and we just had these really deep conversations about relationships and stuff while staring out the window...it's always soooo cool to talk with marko because he's so intelligent and interesting...and thanx alot...he made me late for my tutorial...tho...i must admit that i didn't really want to go to it either...yay dragonboat racing!

andrew has red hair!
