"going to see 'a beautiful mind' with pat and alex...we walked to paramount to buy $3 tickets...we were late for the movie so after we bought the tickets we hurried up the escalator and basically ran into the theatre...and alex and i somehow managed to get in without having our tickets peeled...after the movie alex gave his ticket to some homeless guy to cash in...sweet..."
the ditz that i am...i was cutting the tag off my u of t blazer last nite and i cut myself...not a little cut...it was pretty big...it didn't hurt...or maybe i was so shocked that i just stared at my finger for 10 seconds before i decided to put it under cold water...but i think i was more shocked that my scissors were that sharp...i guess i always assumed that they'd be pretty blunt...i don't even know why...but either way...i'm ok...still alive...
ha...grace and jules came over this afternoon and grace found my stash off fudgesicles...damn....i told her that the box was full of animal fat...too bad she didn't fall for it...she loved the hippo with the big mouth! and we watched some survivor stuff...how the women survivors were doing...they're ALL famous...maybe i should apply for survivor...but no...i wouldn't do well...
"Tell me did you sail across the sun
Did you make it to the Milky Way to see the lights all faded
And that heaven is overrated
Tell me, did you fall for a shooting star
One without a permanent scar
And did you miss me while you were looking at yourself out there"

i'd really luv to see the new star wars movie...so what if the acting sucks? it's a STAR WARS movie....sides...hayden isn't that bad looking...tho he gives off this really cocky attitude...you know who's CUTE?!?!? james franco...yup....if i HAD to choose a star to idol...he'd be the one...very james dean like...very very SEXY!!! i'm sorry faye...but elijah wood? i saw a pic of him today and i just had to start laughing...he looks soooo....innocent...'i don't know what i'm doing' type....very surprised...ah well...we all got our fancies...

"meeting at timmy ho's at the corner of bay and bloor on monday mornings with christine, netta, jaqlyn, and rashida....until we realized that we'd rather sleep in then meet up with each other!"
i'm staring at a gray hippo with it's mouth wide open...it's a candle that my grandmother bought for me from the shaw festival place at niagara-on-the-lake...where i just got back from...dad decided to take the family on a 'trip' today...since amelia suggested it and he could NEVER refuse her...so off on our day trip with everyone 'comfy' in our van...except for me...because there are 5 ppl in our family i'm always stuck in the very rear of the van...which normally i wouldn't complain so much about...except that it's such a hassle getting in and out of plus the seats don't go back (or mom prefers that they don't) so it's always ramrod straight up...and trust me....you don't wanna sit here for 4 hrs...NOT fun...oh well....i get a big-assed mouth of a hippo candle and a inuit guy made of some pretty stones...hmmmm
"I'm torn
I'm all out of faith
This is how i feel
I'm cold and i am shamed lying naked on the floor
Illusion never changed into something real
I'm wide awake and I can see the perfect sky is torn
You're a little late
I'm already torn"
Natalie Imbruglia
you ALWAYS know what i'm thinking when you read sad lyrics...i'm not going into details...i'll let you stew...but i was thinking in the car ride home how i'll post the lyrics of 'torn' if i don't hear from bobo or if i do hear from him i'd post some other lyrics....now you know...
leafs lost....that's ok...
i'm actually liking my linguistics very much...i'm INTERESTED in my courses...holy jesus mother of god i'm actually WANTING to study...that's completely unbelievable since i never once WANTED to study for my courses this year....hmmm....obviously life sci is not for me...never again....no more calc, physics and chem...wellll...after chm138 this summer anyway....

"pablo was SUCH a cutie! he was in my economics class with christine, bernadette and brian...he was sitting behind us and looking over our shoulders trying to see a piece of paper that bernie was holding...i turned around and was like 'HI!' ...scared him half to death cuz he thought he was peering discreetly...and asked him has name...meanwhile...chris wasn't paying any attention till he said his name was 'pablo' where she whipped her head around sooo fast and was like 'pablo? that's such a cute name!'"
i'm such a baby...i'm scared to check out my marks on rosi...but i actually just went...and it's closed...whew! i dunno...thinking you failed is one thing...seeing it on the system is another...blah...as long as i get out of life sci...it's all good...
hmmm...this is pretty good...ran into moshe yesterday...run into conrad and danny today! after teaching 3 hrs, went to richmond court with my family and conrad was eating there with danny and another friend, james...it was fun...looks like he's doing a bush thing with his hair...hmmm...soooo moshe...was that 'lady-friend' of yours tina?!?!? ;p
"Listen children to a story
that was written long ago
about a kindom on a mountain
and the valley folk below
on the mountain was a treasure
buried deep beneath the stone
and the valley people swore
they'd have it for their very own
so the people of the valley
sent a message up the hill
asking for the buried treasure
tons of gold for which they'd kill
came an answer from the kingdom
'with our brothers we will share
all the secrets of our mountain
all the riches buried there'
now the valley cried with anger
'mount your horses
draw your sword'
and they killed the mountain people
so they won their just reward
now they stood beside the treasure
on the mountain top, dark and red
turned the stone and looked beneath
'PEACE ON EARTH'
was all it said
go ahead and hate your neighbour
go ahead and cheat a friend
do it in the name of heaven
you can justify it in the end
there won't be any trumpets blowing
come the judgement day
on the bloody morning after
one tin soldier rides away"
one tin soldier
john's having a party today...i wish i was there...unfortunately i can't...ugh...why do i hafta work so early saturday morning? besides...considering my parents don't even LIKE sleepovers (i can only think of ONE time i slept over at a friends house...TANAKA...when we were getting ready to go to montreal...) and even then they were like...ehhh...man..tanaka lives like FIVE minutes from our house...can you imagine what they'd be like if i slept ACROSS THE BORDER?!?!? *sigh* so i'll just PRETEND that i'm there...no...that's stupid too...

"who's the guy with the orange hair? COLIN!!!"
went shopping a scarbourough town centre with auntie hwang this morning...we were originally supposed to go to the pickering town centre to visit the new pet store that her friend had just opened...but because of rain...we went to the other mall instead...which in theory we didn't need to because it didn't rain until TONITE...i'll get to that in a minute
firstly...i haven't seen auntie hwang in the LONGEST time...she doesn't generally like to come visiting...she's a little old spinster lady of 64 yrs...and prone to temper tantrums...not unlike ames...aaahhh! don't hurt me ames! ;p so being with my aunt is like being with a ticking time bomb...you never know if it's gonna go off...so i'm walking on eggshells all day...we spent 5 hrs at the mall!!! now...i don't usually complain about shopping...i could shop for hours...but with a 64 yr old lady whose taste in style differs in mine so drastically that i don't even DARE walk into a clothing store?!?!?! we spent all that time looking at bulky uniform like, pregnant style clothing...ugh....i was DYING....either way...i was glad to have seen her...but never again....
spent an hour at kelly library studying linguistics...did the assignment for tutorial earlier in the morning....it's not too difficult...i'm hoping this course won't be so bad afterall...i started getting hungry around 4:30pm so i trekked over to med sci for a timmy ho's bagel...but guess what?!?!? it's closed! why do they hafta close at 3?!?!? don't they understand that there are ppl that have classes at nite?!?!? so i sigh and start trekking to the bagel stop...when i run into.....MOSHE!!!! guy!! how long has it been? last time i saw you...volunteering at st. john's rehab with conrad, tim, alex, ori and reyna!! and you left cuz ori put salt and pepper in your hair and NEVER came back!! we went to the bagel stop where there were no more bagels...(i'm sooo disgusted that i'm not even gonna COMMENT on that...) so finally settled on a second cup muffin and some chamomile tea to calm me down...yes i was getting agitated...thanx moshe for the fun time at second cup!

"i'm walking through queen's park after working out with amin and a certain person (who shall remain nameless because this blonde giant will kick my ass if i named him) when one of those birds shit on him...we were talking when all of a sudden you hear a 'oh shit! one of those sucker's got me!' ahahaha!! that was priceless! "
it's been an EXTREMELY looonngg day...i was downtown this morning at 10...TEN O'CLOCK!!!! my class is at SIX AT NIGHT!!!! geez...can you say keener?!?!? nah...actually i'm glad i went early...went to the university bookstore to sell my economics textbook and buy my linguistics book...but they didn't have anthro books because apparently the university didn't send the course books or something...so i went to the discount bookstore across the street and grabbed one of 2 used copies left of one of the anthro books...(thanx god...cuz they cost bout $90 new...it was bout $70 used) and bought a new copy of the other book...
spent all day studying...went to EJ pratt for a bit...but found it much too quiet (can't speak on my phone in there) and then spent some at brennan lounge before carlos kicked me out (something bout a mtg in there), some time outdoors (but it was kinda windy) and finally settled down at one of my favorite studying spots...a coffee shop...how typical...it was the bagel stop/starbucks on college across from the u of t bookstore...so it was great...
thank god i studied...well even if i didn't maybe i'd have managed it...but my anthro's prof is pretty bad...he's VERY sketchy...he'd talk about something but only skimming the surface then he'd wander off somewhere else and when someone asked a question he'd be like 'i'm JUST getting to it' and then ...not really...but luckily it was stuff on evolution and that stuff where it's not THAT difficult...not yet anyways...
i'm scared of linguistics tho...it doesn't SEEM that difficult...but all those assignments and quizzes...and those incredibly intimidating tutorials that we have before EVERY class....ewwww...
"i don't wanna close my eyes
i don't wanna fall asleep
cuz i miss you baby
and i don't wanna miss a thing"

i'm in one of those moods again...maybe it has something to do with bobo...i have chatted with him...and i hate myself for it...maybe i SHOULDN'T chat with him...cuz i seem to do better if i don't hear from him...but then...BOOM! i hear from him and then i'm yet again shattered at the heart...and slowly...mend AGAIN....
oy....such is life....

“my csb…aka…california sunshine boy…yup…jeff! we were in the same economics class…until i dropped it…but I called him my csb because he had the really blonde hair with the really blue eyes and wore these sunglasses at the top of his head…on nice days he’d rollerblade to class and after class he’d rollerblade next to me when we walked…once he had an accident…he was rollerblading next to a taxi and the door opened and he flipped over it…ouch! but he was ok!”
i was working out and watching ‘A Knight’s Tale’ when i came to this sudden revelation…heath ledger ISN’T that good looking…what was i thinking!??! hmmm…now that i’m over aussies…i don’t need to go to australia anymore… ;p
i was going to linguistics class earlier this evening when i realized that i was gonna miss the leafs game...at first i was bummed then i thought that it was a good thing because sometimes when i go to the tv to watch the game, the sens score...and now when i got in the car to go home and asked the score, it was 2-0 leafs! yay! and they beat the sens 3-0!!!!! i never thought they'd do it...but i guess they've proved me wrong! i don't mind!
nah nah na nah...nah nah na nah...hey hey...goodbye! GO LEAFS GO!!! good night!

yeh...yeh...gritty leafs! nuff said...
it was raining....AGAIN!!...remember a coupla blogs back when i said i loved rain? let me correct that statement...i love rain when i don't hafta WALK in it....i spent the whole day walking in rain...my shoes got a squishy and i got all wet....so...maybe i'm not all that crazy anyway...poor tim didn't bring an umbrella and walked in steady rain for 10 mins...luckily he's got short hair and it doesn't make THAT huge of a difference...but it's kinda sad when both benny and i have umbrellas...oh well...
haha...flo and i went applying for summer part-time jobs at indigo, chapters and nike today...man...we shouldn't go together...we are the NUTTIEST ppl...but if we make a good impression...whatever...and plus..it will be pretty sad if flo gets the job and i don't...or vice versa....we should do this thing where it's like...'hire BOTH of us!' ....nope...i don't think so!

went to a restaurant where i saw my lovely little cousins, erica and reina who i haven't really seen in ages! they're getting sooo big! i forgot that they're 5 and 8 and i feel sooooo old compared to them...reminds me of when we were little and we looked up to ruth and alice...
and my aunt spilled the teapot and got tea everywhere and this guy came to clean it up and his name tag said 'david' and i poked grace and she looked and we laughed cuz we've both been having 'david' issues!
and lisa and lauren picked me up at winners today cuz i walked with my sister to shoppers cuz she was buying the paper and lauren overslept...but either way...we had a great long workout and a nice delicious lunch at spaha where we saw that cute waiter from last time...
and antho class was good...we got a new prof who's sooo much more interesting...but today it was kinda long and i was getting a headache...and so i wasn't really paying attention and passing notes to jonathon and here's some of it:
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
and now i gotta call me silly boy, joel...who told me to call at 11 after he finishes watching wrestling!

finished my book today...had a multigrain bagel and an extra large french vanilla cappuccino at tim horton's and spent an hour there reading and waiting before i went to work...i didn't want to go early...cuz there's this kid there who's like in love with me...but i stress KID...he's like grade 10...i don't understand why....ugh...they had a party cuz the grade 3 harmony class was done and he came to my room and kept asking if i wanted to eat or drink anything...oy...

"studying at the kelly library with jay...thanx to jay we've christianed it the kelly 'bundy' library...that's why i call it that now...nyah! we checked out one of those study rooms and spent 4hrs studying bio...and chatted maybe 20% of the time...you know that you don't really get to know someone until you study with them? and then we ate at jaka's and then went back to studying at kelly!"
rain is too cool…i luv the pitter-patter of the rain when it splotches down on things…especially car roofs and umbrellas and our skylight…it has such a soothing sound…even at its angriest…when it comes down the hardest and fastest…that’s what it was like today…i woke up to lightning and thunder which i don’t particularly like…but then in the background was the pitter-patter..pitter-patter..pitter-patter..hmm…ever walk in the rain? most of the time i just wish i brought my umbrella and hate the soggy hair and the head colds…but sometimes if the rain is warm and consistent…it make my head sensitive and it TICKLES! it’s really fun! i’d be walking and i’d just start giggling and laughing and ppl would be like ‘what’s wrong with her?’ those are good rain! ever watch rain make puddles? (it seems that i have too much time on my hands) it’s really neat how the rain drops make little circle droplets in the puddles…and you know how hard or how much rain is coming down by the droplets…teeheee….yeh…rain is TOO cool…

(cuz i knew who he was from the answering machine...but he had no idea who i was) and then we just chatted about university and stuff..then we decided we'd meet up the next day...and because i didn't know who he was...he wore a nametag when he came down to meet me!!"
went shopping at yorkdale with pat today! it was great...considering i haven't spent any real quality time with him in a LONG time...which just reminded me right NOW...i haven't heard from joel in awhile...hmmm...maybe i should give him a call...ok...i will...laater...alright...lost track there...went to see ice age today! that was the best! it was so much fun because there were a totally of 7 ppl in the movie cinema and pat and i would keep laughing or pat would make funnie noises...hahaa...but really...ice age is up there with monsters inc. and shrek for kids movies that i like this year...
we went to take booth pictures...pat's never taken them before! it was funnie! we took 2 nice pics and 2 funnie pics...ahaha! pat took a funnie pic where we both stuck our tongues in the same direction! and we went to shoppers where he bought batteries and then somehow we ended up in the tampons aisles and he was commenting how there were SOOO many different kinds and stuff...and i'm like...let's leave now...;p
bbtea! we ordered them at ten ren's like 10 mins before the movie started and then pat didn't want to drink it so fast...so we put his drink in my purse...thank god it didn't spill or anything! technically, we could have gone late to the movie because we'd just miss the previews...but noooo...pat wanted to see the new star wars preview so we went in...then JUST as the previews came on...it occured to me that this was a little kid's movie...and yesss....all the previews were little kid's movies!!
karina owes me one ass kicking...she didn't show yesterday cuz her mom put her on the wrong bus and she somehow ended up somewhere on steeles! and then it occured to her that she didn't have any bus tickets to go home...so she WALKED home! she lives in scarbourough!! ahahahahahaaaa!!! that's CLASSIC!! that's ok...

"going to the bay st. movie store with marko, jason and matt patterson...i was gonna help them pick out a movie and then watch with them...who knew they'd take at least 45 mins to decide what they want to see? so apparently i'm into the chick flicks and they're into ....i dunno what they're into...but i'd be like 'this is a good movie'...'NO'...'ok'...'how bout this one?'...'ewww..NO'...'ok'..."
so i had a 'me' day today...actually...i was supposed to meet up with karina...but i dunno where that gurl went...how typical...karina...just for the record...i'm NOT mad at you...it was great...i worked out at the AC this morning....then walked from spadina and harbord to bathurst and queen (basically walked thru chinatown....ooooh! tanaka...the inshoes store? the one we skipped class to go to last year? it moved across the street to insquare...they still got those AMAZING shoes and handbags! we're sooo hitting that store on thursday!!!) and then walked on queen to university...had lunch at the great canadian bagel on university (i wasn't bored...i had a good book with me) and went to st. mike's and chilled there for a bit...
i found some really cute coca cola vintage bottles for my mom today...you know the little bottles? i got one of those...and a tiny coca cola can..teehee...that's my mother's day present...i know...we're weird like that...we don't do the pancakes and breakfast things...we do the coca cola stuff!! ;p
lisa...you're too funnie!! actually...you're MOM's funnie too...she scared me when she picked up the phone and started chatting with me...cuz most of my friends (plus my mom) when the parent picks up the phone that basically means they're gonna yell at you to get off the phone...but you're mom wanted to say hi to you cuz she hasn't seen you in awhile! that's classic! we definitely need to go drinking one nite...that would be great! or we could go shopping...whatever...we have the WHOLE SUMMER!!! yeehaaa!
hey...i'm chatting with jay on icq and i'm posting his goals for the summer...i thought they were so cute!

4. spend quality time w/ friends
5. work out and become a hot stud (note: dream on jay!)
gilmore girls and buffy was on tonite...do you know how difficult it is to watch too programs that are on at the exact same time?!?!? it takes TECHNIQUE! either way...i still don't know what's going on...
i'm making a summer bookshelf on the side...probably after favorites...i want to see how many 'intellectual' books i can read...teeheee...

"working out at the AC...thanx to ava who got me started near the end of the first semester...i always WANTED to go to the AC...just been too SCARED to walk in there by myself! that place is the scariest place on earth for ppl who don't work out regularly...very intimidating...but going with ava really helped me get over the scary factor...then i went by myself or with john...and those were good times! working out at hart house was a disaster tho...the coupla times i've gone there were very INTERESTING...one time the treadmills weren't working properly with me...got frustrated and started running the track...haha...that was FUNNIE! the track isn't even straight! it curves and is bumpy...plus there's no fans! another time i was running the treadmill with flo and my walkman fell of the treadmill and basically went 'klunk, klunk, klunk...bam!' ...hmm...good times!"
so nothing interesting today...went to the dentist to have my teeth cleaned...now they're all sparkly and clean...oh wait...i just had dinner...nevermind! haha...cuz my dentist's office is at promenade mall...my mom and i went shopping afterwards! hahahaaaa! it felt soooo good to go shopping!! yeh! and basically went and slept the whole day away...and now i'm gonna go for a run...while watching tv...haha...thank the lord for treadmills!

"picking up ava from her st. george apartment on tuesday and thursday mornings...i'd get there at 9:45 pm...stay up there for about 10 mins while she dried hair or was getting ready and chat all the way to calc class...about guys, and classes, and school and friends...some real cool gurl bonding moments...and so early in the morning!!!"
what an eventful day...
#1 saw romeila today! gurl...exactly HOW long has it been since i've seen you?!?!?! TOO LONG!!!! i actually ran into her by accident...she was working for her boyfriend as security for st. mikes...good thing i saw you! ;p got in some good conversations there!...
#2 didn't get to be communications commissioner...got beat out by paul...who obviously prepared much more for this job then i did...and you know what? i hope he does what he said cuz it SOUNDED good...i don't mind being an officer...afterall...i should put school ahead of social events...and anyways...if anything goes wrong...we can all blame it on paul...j/j!
#3 went to visit the boys remaining at elmsley after the meeting...only a coupla guys left! awwwww....chilled with amin a bit...chatted with his friend on his icq for a bit...it was fun! after wednesday...most of the dorms will be empty...saw riley, rajen, pat, ian, ted, jeff and matt...that's all who's left...and then there was none...
#4 met up with ma gurlz...faye at tim hortons (saw billy!)...litta at bay station at 5pm...karina at bay station at 6pm (yes...we waited a FULL hour for her to show up)...met up with charysse at pizza hut (she showed up at 7pm)...went out for drinks at the foxes den after dinner...faye and i left early...and we sort of felt guilty afterwards because we left the other three by themselves...and personally...i don't really trust them by themselves!!!
#5 on the way home on the subway...this homeless man came on at rosedale...sat right NEXT to faye (there were sooo many empty seats) and started jabbering...completely freaking us out...we got off immediately at the next stop!!
"What if God was one of us
Just a slob like one of us
Just a stranger on the bus
Trying to make His way home"
Joan Osborne

"tuesdays from 12-2pm, sitting in the coop...frantically copying (and somewhat trying to understand) chem139 lab prep...thanx to sarah, mark, sean, dominik (tho...he really sat in so HE could get the answers for his class the next day) and whoever dropped by...heheee...konrad...."
JUST got home from watching....SPIDERMAN! what a great movie! tho...i must admit that i have what i believe to be...a migraine...i think it's a combination of : #1 staying up till 2am this morning (figuring out my life...long story), #2 wearing glasses today (ames sais i look like a ditz trying to be smart when i wear em...i wonder if that's supposed to be a good or bad thing?), #3 watched a movie (motion sickness)....either way...i LIKED it...i don't even read comic books...but this was pretty good...of course...i did the usual crying thingy when uncle ben died...*sniff sniff* i get teary thinking bout it...so i'm gonna stop now...no wait...i'm NOT...i gotta complain about the stupid service at those stupid movie theatres...i HATE the smell of popcorn...i really do...service guy couldn't take our order correctly...and put all our stuff on the wet pepsi surface...and why'd they hafta stamp our hands if they keep checking our ticket stubs ANYWAY?!?!?!
janice...i really hope the id worked and that you're at o'reilly's right now...haha...today was soo funnie with your phone call...honestly...my mom can't take phone msgs...just spell your name and leave a number and that'll be cool...tell me how christian's band goes, k?
i had a dilemma today...i went shopping for tanaka and alanna's bday present and found some nice stuff...then i thought perhaps i should get a present for karina, charysse and maureen's bday which i missed cuz we weren't around...then i thought...what about if maija comes...and litta? oy! gave myself a headache...so i've decided that whoever comes first tomorrow gets the presents...geez...
"With these eyes
You're everything to me
Without your love
I'll wind up down upon my knees
With these eyes
I've learned from my mistake
That a sad song doesn't care
Whose heart it breaks"
Roch Voisine
i heard it on the radio today...i haven't heard that song in AGES...i remember i used to listen to it on my cd player over and over again...and i want to find that nickleback song to the spiderman movie...teehee...i see the beginning of a new craze!
haha...checked out kinsey's page and took this test...i don't think it's right at all tho...

"me and andrew stole sean's beer at the beginning of the year as a prank for a payoff to the 'joke' he played on me...i'm not going to elaborate on THAT....we hid the beer in john's room and sure enuf (although not anticipated....didn't even think of that reaction) sean went totally nuts when he couldn't find his beer...eventually he found it but he stayed REALLY MAD at andrew and not mad at me...(it was TOTALLY my fault) but after that incident....i'm not guilty if sean misses anything!"
so omg!!!...what would i do if flo wasn't on council with me this year?!?!? flo...DON'T DO THIS TO ME!!!!!!!!! i'm gonna do whatever i can to help you...we're like sista's! we buy the same clothes and jewelery...like the same guys (ok...not really) do most council stuff together...we both have HUGE mouths...come on!!!! what would i do without my counterpart!!! you've haven't even gone yet and i'm in a HUGE FUNK!!! ahhhhh!!!

"being on smcsu...i actually met half of the student union before university started last year...met them at a golf tournament that st. mike's was hosting and i was there volunteering...kate was working for my aunt eva and she was so nice to me! she introduced me to andrea at dinner and they were so much fun and THEY were the one's that said i'd make a great student representative and that i should run in the fall election...which i did...and ta da! it's been a great year, hosting all these parties that i didn't go to (long story), helping ppl out where help was needed, just being around and having fun! and now i'm on again for THIS year! hopefully (keep fingers crossed)...communications commissioner!"
had a GREAT conversation with kirsten today! we just discussed EVERYTHING that we thought should be done and were brainstorming for frosh and stuff...it was sooo much fun! i can't wait till the meeting on sunday and we get our commissons up and running!!! teeheeeee!!!
went to chapters today...haven't hit THAT bookstore in a LONG time! awww...i miss it! i remember during highschool, friday nites were my family's 'chapters' nite...after our math classes (yes...geeks...i know) we'd go and spend at LEAST an hour sitting on their couches sipping drinks and reading our brains out! we don't do that anymore...eh...
"And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world"
Elton John
gotta thank chapters for that...i was reading there and that song came on...i didn't even know who sang it or what it was called...i just knew that i'd heard it sung by ewan mcgregor and nicole kidman in 'moulin rouge' and so i went up to the counter to ask and this nice guy looked it up for me...so nice...i really do like chapters much more then indigo...i dunno...the red is sooo much more nicer then the blue....something like that...
meh...gonna watch the leafs play in an hour...toodles

"FROSH week! was amazing!...got run over by a little old homeless man on a bike...lost my frosh kit...went to the 'IT' club with rashida and sean, where sean saved me from 'stifler'...went to the party at pavilion with bernie where he ditched me and i met up with jason, joel, ramona and anna...went to the blue jays game where st. mike's was THE BEST!...'drop you pants!'...tried to steal the engineer's hats, painted the horses balls blue in the middle of queen's park, played stupid games where one of our frosh leaders left because she got her hair wet and had to go home to get it straightened...AGAIN!...met sooo many new and cool ppl!"
i want a hat like the one rachel leigh cook wore in "get carter"....can you tell i was watching that movie today? ;p i feel soooo very very relaxed!
so yes...i lied...i didn't do anything after my exam yesterday...i went home, watched the leafs play and then went to sleep...actually...i lied again...i napped before dinner...but you know what tho? i WANTED to celebrate yesterday...just that i was denied by everyone...'gotta sleep, gotta shower, gotta study'...ugh...so there i was walking to kelly library to fix up a stupid fine that i paid two weeks ago and they tell me i gotta speak to the librarian who left at 5 pm (an hour before i got there) WHO KNEW?!?!? i only FINISHED my exam at 5pm!!!! argh!!! and then i was gonna take the subway home and ran into eva who gave me a drive home! yay!
spoke to karina on the phone today...it was soo good! haven't chatted with her in longest time (except on icq) but we totally just kill each other! tried to call tanaka...but i think she was working..at least she's back home again! we want to go shopping tomorrow! finally!! i didn't think i'd make it if i didn't stay away from a mall anymore! ;p
ok...so i was SUPPOSED to clean my room today...you see...during the exams it just got sooooo messy...and since i had nothing in particular to do today...ugh...no...spent all day watching tv...;p and cat naps...and working out after being a couch potato for 2 weeks...no small feat! but i felt really good to be exercising again! ;p
"Well hey
So much I need to say
Been lonely since the day
The day you went away
So sad but true
For me there's only you
Been crying since the day
The day you went away"
M2M
