Oliver


Oliver isn’t just a cat, he’s an image of hope. He’s only a kitten, but he’s been through a lot. And now 3 days after the attack he is giving as much love… maybe even more then he did before. His life is awkward now , having to wear a disc around his neck for 10 days and every time another cat sees him they hiss and swat at him. As I write this I struggle to see over his giant blue dish.

This morning I could hear him heading to the litter box. I listened as the dish tripped his every 3rd step. Finally he was there and did his business. Then I heard meowing followed by limped walking. I had assumed that it was the sounds you were supposed to hear form a cat with a dish (move tail off keyboard and push disk out of my view) I heard him walk to the door and meow some more, then he walk back to where I was sitting and meowed. I turned around and too my surprise that disk had made it over one of his front legs (stopping for a sec to pet him) making it a lot harder for him to walk. When I saw this vision, the words slipped out of my mouth “you poor unfortunate soul”.

But he really isn't, if anything he is probably pretty lucky, after being the only cat to come down with a flu and get attacked by a killer raccoon and surviving to tell the tale, with battle wounds all over his body to boot!

I saw him looking at Winston today I think I could actually see some jealousy in his eyes as Winston cleaned between each toe with care and precision. I down sized him to a red vest but Zelda is still scared of him. Not so much now that she actually sneaks up behind him to get a swat or two in before I drench her with the spray bottle.

Happy Halloween 2006





This year there wasn't a huge halloween party, but Jess, Bri little and big lauran, jenna, Michelle and I did go out to a bar. We dressed up keeping the tradition, it was fun. I was Jack Sparrow. I must say for a costume i threw together in a day it sure did look pretty good! Jess took picrures so when i get ahold of them ill put them up!

Bri and I carved all these pumpkins, i think they turned out pretty cool. We had them lite 3 nights in a row so they got put to good use!

Anyway i hope you all had a great halloween and if anything real exciting happened or you saw a sweet idea for a costume leave me a comment.

P.S. Sorry i have not been updating, ill do better i promise!

I don't know where to begin

I again have neglected my blog for some time. And its not like i don't have anything to say, it just seems that when i do, i am either somewhere where i can't get to my blog or i have forgotten what i was going to write about.

I thought this morning i would start fresh with something kind of interesting. I was awoken by some really loud thunder, so i decided that i would just lay there and listen, eventually i started to doze off. All of a sudden there was this terrible shrieking crack and then another to follow. It souneded like someone was attacking a rather large metal shed with a chainsaw. after the longest 10 seconds of my life that horrible cracking thunder stopped. My heart had started beating like crazy. I never in my life have I ever heard such loud and consistent thundering.

During the time i was sleeping during the strom i was having this dream that i had gone to a restaurant with this guy and we were waiting to get a table. then i heard screaming and we ran out to the lobby (which was almost all glass ) and saw a large tornado heading strait for us. as we antisipated our deaths the tornado circled around the building slowly. Then when we thought it was going to continue on its path sparing us for another year, it turned around and picked the guy i was with and myself up and throw us far away. when i landed i was in the street. I quickly got up and ran for cover. I ended up seeing these stairs that went in to a room. The door was this little square that i was supposed to squirm through, but i didn't, instead i watched through the hole as a Japaness man wrote in japaness on to something he was holding.........the dream just gets crazyier as i go on so ill stop.

so anyway its still raining and thundering out. A very sad day to have to go out. Little Zelda is very intrested in watching the rain come down, i think she really likes that sound it makes

So i ve been missing kingston abit. Downtown mostly, here the downtown is kinda scary. It reminds me of a minature toronto, with its tall creepy buildings. And everytime i go downtown it seem really grim, i mean no colours just greys and browns. Kinda like Gothom City.

more to report on the City of london. The Drivers in this town are insanely horrible and the traffic is even worse.

I went to guelph this weekend and WOW, its not what i expected. I thought guelph was going to be busy and city like. But its not at all. I think i am becoming a city-ish girl NOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooo.

finally Things are starting to happen here

So i gave up on the Humane society and decided that i would try a different place. Its called the Animal Alert centre for Cats. The people were really nice there and we found two cats, well ones a kitten and the other is a Cat. I only named one of them, Bri's going to name the little kitten. The Cat i named Winsten. I really wanted to call him Columbo, but it just didn't suit.

The little Girl kitten has turned out to be a real Trouble maker ...with a capital T. But she is so cute and you can't get angry at cute. They both have colds which kinda sucks but the place we got them from is paying for all their medications and vaccinations. The two are getting along pretty well for only knowing each other for a couple of hours. They chase eachother alot, its super funny.


Ohhh jessica called me today which was awesome. I was planning on calling her today to but she beat me to it. We decided to hang out tomorrow which will be fun.

Tonight Bri and I are going out with Mere and Jason. We plan to go bowling which rocks and have some dinner.

well i should probably go bri wants to head out now

Later

moving to london and winning a baseball game ...all in a days work!

Well i just got back from London!

The first day of apt hunting wasn't so good, i was actually kinda sad when i went to bed on saturday but after seeing 372 Cedar i was as happy as a pig in shit. we pretty much made the desicion right away and gave the lady a check. The place has hard wood floors, its very spacious and all the windows are brand SPANKIN new. Which may not be a big deal to the average person, but when you live in a place where half of your windows can't even open ...its a luxory.

So yes i admit getting this place has made me stocked for London, but i will really miss Kingston. Mostly because of all the friends that i have met here. Its been great, i have made so many memories and its sad to walk away from them. I am glad that Jessica will be in london though. She's my long time best friend. we used to hang out in elementary school, and the first 2 years of high school. Then we just made different friends, although we always stayed in touch. But now after 2 years of college i am going out to live near her ....all by accident too!

SUper good news, The Bluescreens of death just won their second baseball game which was pretty sweet. I must say we were on top of our game today (i didn't get to hit any wicked balls though which was a bit of a bummer, But hey we WON!) After the game we went out to the toucan for some drinks.....might i add we are sponsered by the toucan! The service was really slow, but i had a good time anyway.

Well tomorrow is the BBQ and pool party at toms place. Theres going to be burgers and chicken and all sorts of fun.

Oh quick note:

so i miss placed my bathing suits at the beginging of the summer and had to go buy a new one. Well yesterday when i was packing i found them. Its was a very happy time for me! just though you should know LOL.

Made some Banana bread today, and i think that it turned out pretty good. I am really starting to get a feel for baking and cooking. It makes me feel good about myself. Went to Goodlife fitness today as well and got a tour and 5 day free membership. Really weird when i was at toucan i saw this girl and i only noticed her because of the amazing amount of back fat she had (her top had weird straps that made the back fat more obvious) but when i looked at her face i realized that she was the same women that gave me to tour of Goodlife. coincidence ....I think not!

To conclude, me and kelly are heading over tomorrow morning to do some Yoga, and then we are gonna hit down town for a walk. I figure we both could use the last soak up before we leave kingston for Good ....sob sob. Kingston i love your down town.....Its pretty.

losing touch

I have lost touch with my blog!

Its been a long time since i came on and just talked about what was on my mind. Like for instance i was having these really crazy dreams last night, they made almost no sense and there was music in the background, i can remember one part i was playing a music quiz with someone and they had to guess what music video it was from the spice girls. I found it hilarious because the music wasn't even the Spice Girls.

anyway i woke up this morning several times, tossing and turning. This seems to be the pattern every morning now. I wish i could just wake up and feel rested. the phone rang, it was long distence. i heard Bri pick it up. two seconds later he was at the bedroom door saying it was a lady about an apartment. i told him to take it and went back to sleep. Finally i woke up again, decideding that anymore sleep would just make me more tired, i got up. wandered into the bathroom and then to the office. Bri was still on the phone. He told me the girl said their were no houses left, so i said forget it and wandered into the living room, where at this point i was starteld by Bob, sitting on the couch. After that i woke up pretty quickly.

i did my exercises again today, i can actually see the differents on my body. My theights are still big though. I know some running would probably do me good but i just haven't had the energy to go and do it. I think the heat has something to do with it. Id rather wait till it cools off just a tad.

On the food side of things i have been eating alot of veggies lately. More then i ever thought i could eat. I figured out how to make these really yummy potatoes on monday. Lemon potatoes they are and soooooo delisious.

I am listening to the podsafe podcast right now. Its really neat. iam enjoying the music too!

well finally after trying to get ahold of lindsay all day she finally called. I had called her once this morning and it sounded like someone had hung up, so i called back and no one answered . i found out that her phone had died and they only have one so she couldn't call me back. :)

well i am heading out for a bit but ill talk to you later!

Saturday was burtal

Matt had a BBq on saturday, Bri and me decided to go over around 2ish, that when the drinking started. Keeves and Ryan allan were there as well as Matt ..ofcourse. Meat was trown on the grill and the cap started to fly. There was lots of swimming to be had to. as the day progressed Bob and Kelly showed up. They stayed for a round of drinks and to witness the retardedness that went down. Bri doing double shots back to back of jager and Lets just say Matt was not happy that his deck chairs and shot glasses made it in the pool.

Keeves jumped off the roof into the pool, which may seem dangerous, but i think the more dangerous stunt he pulled was diving from the edge (of the pool not the roof) and hitting his head on the bottom of the pool. after that he was never the same. I think Lauri showed up and stayed for all of 20 minutes, then finally was asked to leave. ouch! (lauri is a girl who likes matt ...well i am not sure what her feelings are toward him now) lol

I am proud to say i made it through the whole night with out passing out in some strange place, forgetting most of what happened ...like on other occasions. Bri didn't do so well with the Jager though!

and that was that

A new one

Check, check and Checkkkkk

Well i am done consolidation for good! Which is great but i think i am really going to miss the people that i worked with. Sharon was a great preceptor, She made working at the hospital fun. Ruth was great to she was very relaxed about the who thing which was good because, if i had had a n uptight teacher like the other Ruth i probably would have missed my sisters wedding or somthing.

Also some news, i have started the house hunt in london. So far Bri and i have found a bunch of places, we are going up this weekend to look at them. I am really excited because the price is not that bad either, and most of the places include utilities.

Thursday, July 27

3 days left

So only tree more days after day. Shit i need to get Sharon something nice for a thankyou gift. Maybe i could go to the body shop our some other place. I can't wait till next week. its going to be sweet to say good bye forever! although the people there were really nice. That is at KPH they were nice ....not at KGH those bitches lol.

I am going to alliston tomorrow to see my parents. Bris parents are coming up too so that will be fun. On saturday night theres gonna be a BBQ @ VV's (her and mike just got back from their honeymoon) Oh and by the way the wedding was off the hook. Veronica looked great and so did the rest of the party. The Dancing was great, Man and veronica and mike left so drunk it was hilarious (pick couldn't put on his tie he was so drunk)

well i gots to go golf ill be back to post some Baseball pictures from last weekend later tonight when i get back! then its off to the last night shift ever!

Sorry to say but we lost

BLUE SCREENS OF DEATH

Saturday and sunday I was in a baseball tournament, it was alot of fun for 60% of the time and not so fun for 40%. You ask why. Well it didn't help that one of the teams we played was the biggest jack ass's in the world. some of the things they did just pissed us off. For example. Our team only had 9 players so we had to find another person to help us out. One of matts friends was nice enough to do this (he even played hard ball in the past). So he gets up to bat (our team is losing 5 to 21) and hits a pretty sweet home run, but because he plays hardball he touched home base when he came around. the other team said that this ment he was out. So we said "look he is used to playing hard ball" other team responds "well you should have told him all the rules" thats when i pipped up "Awwwww FUCK OFFFF" well needles to say we got the point, but we didn't win. Oh and when we had to bow out early cause we had a game in five minutes they wanted us to keep playing so they could beat us harder. Thats what i call an ASS HOLE Team!

Anyway we did win one game on saturday morning to the Golden Girls. It was our first victory for the whole season (13 - 18). in our last game i made 3 pretty sweet catches at 2nd getting 3 people out. Over all the weekend was really fun and after our last game. Matt had invited Bri and I over to have and swim and BBQ. Jill and Karen were also there.

On thursday Night Bri and I went to see Pirates of the Carribean: Dead Man's Chest with Martin and Matt. That was a really cool movie. I loved the bad guys face (the one that looked like an octopus!)

any off to have a shower

oh guess what 5 days of work left, the i can enjoy my summer!

Canada i am so disappointed in you!

this is what Canada chose as their top model:
I will now go puke in the toilet


....

Ok i am back
please just to see if i am crazy tell me who you would choose
Alanna orrrrrrrrr
Andrea


I don't want a girl who wears 4 year old jammies (andrea) and eating candy like its the fifth and most important food group should be Canada's next top model. She has the worst fashion sense too and i though you were supposed know how to dress to be a model. Skinnny tooo ewwwww

enough of my bitching.

its been a month

my sisters wedding is not to far away and its getting exciting. I feel really swamped right now with work. Looking at my schedual makes me sad because all i see is work with some plans squeezed in between. Now i know thats life, but its a whole new ball game when your not getting paid.

I am super tired right now because i am trying to switch to night shifts which really sucks a whole lot. I miss having fun with my friends after a long day of work. And plus trying to sleep during the day when the guys next door are putting a roof on the house (using loud compressors and swearing all the time) is really hard. So in conclusion i have been in a pretty bad mood so far today and i only see it getting worse with the less sleep i equire.

the other night i went out with the girls from 12 foster. we had i pretty good time but i noticed i don't have the stamina to stay up as late as them and continue to drink. I actually think the whole going out and getting drunk thing is pointless. What do you get that will actually benefit from that.

- spend money on alcohol
- decrease your brain cells
- decreased sleep
- pounding hangover headache in the morning
- and sometimes a strange looking man in your bed

ya it may have been fun, but you know what else is fun? watching movies and playing cards.

maybe i am just getting old

Tuesday, May 23

some pranker

so this morning around 8 i got 3 phone class, when i answered each one of them this is what was said "your cabs out side" or it could have been "Your cats outside" and it was an old lady saying it. Really weird eh! and the eveb weirder thing is that they were calling from philadelphia, PA. What the fuck. I have been so tempted to call them back to see who it was, but thats a pretty long distance call to make

Anyway i have a list i am working on today:

-return scrubs
-do laundry
-pick up some new books to read at work
-shower
-plan time table for sisters shower
-clean up the Apt

Friday, May 19

I wish i knew


I was hoping this past week would have been a little different, more relaxing and such, but instead i felt really crappy and not sick crappy.

I had a headache, dizziness, wasn't hungry and yesterday i got this overwhelming saddness come over me and i had no idea why. It made me so anger because all i wanted to do was go play baseball and then hang out at the toucan, but no matter how hard a tried to be happy it wouldn't happen. I am feeling alot better now and really crossing my fingers that it won't happen again, but i will never know for sure. Brian says it might be the new patch i started, and maybe he's right. That would be the best answer of any atleast.

Last night i went over to Bob and Kelly's and we played some cards and chatted which was nice. Kelly had got me some really pretty flowers to cheer me up, which was super nice of her.

Jackie on the other hand bailed on me yesterday leaving me alone again for another day. I really wanted to chill out with her and have a fun day, but what ever.

Lindsay did my hair on wednesday and that was pretty sweet of her, although there is not as much blonde in it as i would like there to be, she said that the next time she does my hair she will put more blonde in it. I figure it actually worked out good because its my natural colour so i won't have roots while trying to grow it out Yahoo.

I am going to finish planning my sisters shower today and make some calls to some people who didn't RSVP. Wooooo fun, and then what shall i do. I want my last day to be fun since i will be getting up at 6 tomorrow.

I found more pictures of bones too on my camera, he is so cute. I can't wait to go home and bury him becuase that may be another reason i am sad. alot of people are probably thinking "he is a cat get over it" but he wasn't a cat to me he was a friend, a cute and cuddly friend that was always there for me even when i was sick and noone else wanted to be around me.

He peed on laura's bed to, and it wasn't his fault, but it was like he did it for me LOL.

I PASSED

stress

i never felt the real type of stress intil today

And i am having a hard to coming back down.

I finished my Comprehensive test - Really hard and i am now waiting for a phone called, the phone call meaning i failed. I don't like when they do that, i mean i am already freaked out because the test was so freakin hard and now i friggin jump everytime i hear the phone ring.

progress - WAITING

i continue to have the picture of donna telling me "your Good" when i asked her if i had passed the first test and then shacking her head while marking the second one.



2 hours and 46 minutes left on the clock






Monday, May 8

I finally finished my test

I got a 76.2% in theory, the class that i never attend. I feel pretty good about that, i still haven't got my marks from trends and issues, but i am think if there were a problem she would have called me.

Anyway friday night me and lindsay hung out and watched american psycho (pretty creepy movie) and if anyone recalls the comment someones posted on my site:

"Do you like Phil Collins? I've been a big Genesis fan ever since the release of their 1980 album, Duke. Before that, I really didn't understand any of their work. Too artsy, too intellectual. It was on Duke where Phil Collins' presence became more apparent. I think Invisible Touch was the group's undisputed masterpiece. It's an epic meditation on intangibility. At the same time, it deepens and enriches the meaning of the preceding three albums. Christy, take off your robe. Listen to the brilliant ensemble playing of Banks, Collins and Rutherford. You can practically hear every nuance of every instrument. Sabrina, remove your dress. In terms of lyrical craftsmanship, the sheer songwriting, this album hits a new peak of professionalism. Sabrina, why don't you, uh, dance a little. Take the lyrics to Land of Confusion. In this song, Phil Collins addresses the problems of abusive political authority. In Too Deep is the most moving pop song of the 1980s, about monogamy and commitment. The song is extremely uplifting. Their lyrics are as positive and affirmative as anything I've heard in rock. Christy, get down on your knees so Sabrina can see your asshole. Phil Collins' solo career seems to be more commercial and therefore more satisfying, in a narrower way. Especially songs like In the Air Tonight and Against All Odds. Sabrina, don't just stare at it, eat it. But I also think Phil Collins works best within the confines of the group, than as a solo artist, and I stress the word artist. This is Sussudio, a great, great song, a personal favorite. "

Christian Bale as Patrick Batman in American Psycho

It was funny to hear it in the movie after first being baffled by it as a comment on my blog

I also watched Monster, this movie was very different then what i thought it would be like. And i actaully felt bad for her. It is really said how some people grow up in this world with no choice of what to do with their life. And when she almost gets murdered nobody would care because shes a hooker. It would be nice if we could help those poor unfortunate souls, but we can't.

On to saturday,I read the screaming tree by Pill Lovesy for 4 hours then went to Dallas' and hung out with her and lindsay. We drank and then headed out for Philthy's, ran into Matt, Jill, Erin and some other people, but i forget ...you know cause i was kinda drunk. I drank almost a whole picture of beer and 3 coolers which was pretty good for me. I didn't even pass out on anyones lawn.

sunday i cleaned the house and went and got some much needed bras and also picked up Bri from the train station.

Coincidence?...I think Not!

This morning i had a really weird dream about my cat. I was showering and i had got out and walked on to my porch back at home (in Alliston) and Bones was walking around. I kept shouting to Brian that Bones was alive but he didn't believe me. I some how figured out how he had been revived and (by a bolt of lighting) because the place where he was buried was all weird moved around. It was a really good dream but when i woke up it made me really sad that it wasn't true.

Today was my last day of placement, it was a pretty good day some scary things happened, but its ok cause i am done on that floor. I am very excited to write my test tomorrow. I really just want to get the whole thing out of the way and i have enough confidence in myself that i think i can pass with a pretty good mark.

So i had a couple of coincidences happen to me yesterday and the day before that.

The 1st one:

On Tuesday after the meeting with the counselor i decided i was going to go for a run to clear my mind. I took off down princess i went into a few store on the way and got myself a new silver chain ($6) and a pretty pendant to go with it ($16) after that i decided i would head further down princess, browsed through more stores and was enjoying my self....Might i add i looked like a drowned rat. Finally i decided to head home i was just coming out of a store and struggling to make my Ipod work (i have found out they don't like dirty fingers) and i hear "Hillary????" i look up and to my surprise, theres Lindsay. She was going to buy a birthday present for her friend ...Who's birthday it was (by the way it was also Sarah's B-day too, the big 21) So i decided i would walk with her and chat. On the way back from down town we decided to get something to eat, i had suggested The Copper Penny, but Lindsay wasn't feeling it. We finally decided on going to Shoeless Joes. We walk in the place and my whole class was sittin at a big table. It was strange and they all looked at me and were like "hey you weren't at he test" i said hey to all of them and explained why i wasn't there. They all said sorry to hear the news and then i went and sat with Lindsay. We had a lunch so to speak, but it wasn't good. I found a hair in my food and the girl was trying to make me pay full price, but i wasn't taken any of her bullshit.

anyway that was number 1

The 2nd one:
yesterday when i took Jackie to look at laptops, she was telling me how she had seen Tyler the other day down town and then as we pulled out of the mall who do we see pulling in, not anyone else but Tyler and his mom and brother. i think pretty weird!

this is what my mom made for Bones
Its been 4 days since he has been gone and i still really miss him alot. i have never missed something so much. i think its the circumstances surrounding his departure:(

Monday, May 1

So long

Well today was a sad day, Bones has been put down. Very sad, but i guess life goes on. I am gonna miss that little guy, he was so cool. for anyone who is curious to know why? he had a blocked urithrea Which means he couldn't pee anymore. he's going to be buried in the back yard of the apartment i guess. ill miss his little paws and probably everything else about him.

R.I.P Bones Tito Veneziale
May 1st 2006
you will be missed

Saturday, April 29

We grow and stop noticing other people are grow as well

Its really cool to so how people are startin up there own blogs. Its like an inside look into ones life, the writing is always different and it suits the person who writes it.

Like i said before i have kinda neglected to update mine often, but i am coming back slow and steady. I guess the blog helps a lot when you feel sad or upset, or just want to blurt something out and don't want to be judge. It feels good when your done too, cause you see a result of what you feel. It could almost be a work of art

I have been pretty happy lately, i am almost done school ...Well at least the working part and finally the apartment is back in order (and we are getting a new hot water tank). The last three weeks were kind of stressful and at some points i really thought i was never going to finish all the work, but i some how magically did. So now i only have to tests, a take home test and a reflective journal to do, which is not that much stuff and i think after today I may eliminate 2 of those.

After 2 years I finally feel this consistent weight lifting off my shoulders. Its the weight of accomplishment is what it is and it give me this extreme feeling of happiness to feel it almost all gone. i could probably care less where i am going for placement just as long as i don't have to do more presentations and projects.

Placement has been pretty fun the last couple of weeks, i am on Johnson 3 the psych ward and its very interesting. I have gotten a lot closer to some of the people in my clinical group. Heather for one. She's a great girl, very polite and strong, upon first meeting her you wouldn't think that, but she is.

I have gotten to know Jenn a little more too, but something is stopping me from going any further. Its that feel you get when you know you could never be friends with a certain person, maybe its the way she thinks, or talks out of turn, or just plain doesn't listen to anyone. Its kinda sad in a way but i am learning to deal with it.

Christian ...well he hasn't changed since i first met him. He aggravates me to hell but we still are friends. He is one of those people that i can be super blunt with, he, the same to me. We argue all the time, some times even fight, but we are never not friends. He knows me and i know him, i feel like he is my brother, but an annoying younger one (even though he is older the me) but i am sure he thinks of me in the same way.



ohohohoh i just though of something

it bugs me so much when people say "I don't know nothing"

i may be a really bad speller, but that drives me crazy, its almost a contradiction.

anyway i am off to work on some of "that" work

Wednesday, April 12

I have hurt you bad, Oh and it makes me sad

I have neglected my blog for sometime, i think i better hop back on the wagon.

I am getting my hair dyed again right now, lindsay is over. She has already cut brian's hair and mine has been in process for about 3 hours now. I am going back to blonde for the summer.

My cat bones has a UTI so i am taking him to the vet tomorrow. The poor cat has been having alot of trouble peeing. He'll sit in his box for a good 10 minutes and then he'll be back ten minutes later . So that means bones is going back to alliston with me and bri for easter. We really have no choice. I can't leave him here with that problem. the vet even said that male cats have a tendency to have totally blocked urinary tracts. So at least he's peeing, but it might get worse. Poor little guy!

..... 4 days later

Bones is doing alright, we never ended up taking him to the vet, but i think the few days of country air did him some good. Easter was a blast. Played lots of baseball and i even got a new baseball glove. Its pretty nice, right now i am just working it in. I also picked up a bunch of picture frames from my mom. y plan is to spray paint most of the frames black because some of the colour are kinda old and ugly, but the frames are nice.

I handed in my portfolio today. 60% of my mark and no i am not nervous. LOL i am juist gald that its done and over with. Now i can work on my presentation which is due next monday. I have three days to work on it before i have to start working on my care plan again. These damn care plans.

Pilates is going well, i need to do it more but i have actually been doing it which is kinda new for me. I can do it with out the videos too hehe.

anyway off to develop some film.....if it doesn't work i am fucked......

good bye says everyone at the foster house

lindsay is the next to leave the house. I think she moved out today actually. It was nice of the girls to give her to going away parties and me none, but I have no hard feelings ..i could care less actually. I find that most of the girls don't really call me anymore or talk to me. the only one i have stayed intouch with is lindsay. Shes actually moving pretty close to me so i suspect that i will see more of her within the next few months.

Today Brian also left for Toronto, i am going to be super lonely for the next couple days, bu i guess i have my work to keep me company.

The strike has added another week onto our year but we are still suspected to graduate at the same time as everyone else which is really good and i got an extra week to study for the test that i have tomorrow.

Another thing, My room has been set to away. The repair man came to check out the ever growing leak in the bedroom ceiling. He cut a big hole in it and found roughting wood it was pretty gross. So me and Bri have been sleeping in the living room for the last 2 nights....fun eh. and now i will continue to sleep there alone until the landlord gets his act together and fixes the ceiling. theres got to be something i can do about this. Is it legal?

Got the new chest freezer today. Finally we have space in the freezer its great and it doesn't take up that much room either.

well i should probably get back to studying.

Talk to you later!

Tuesday, March 7

moved in and on to a strike

So i am finally settled in, it took a while but its done! Thank god, Bri was going nuts living in a mess..... driving me nuts too LOL. My cat as well is going nuts, i can't let him outside because he's to stupid not to get hit by a car. I decided that to calm him down a little i would take him for walks, well every person who drives by laughs at me! I guess i could understand why......it does look pretty funny and he can't even walk very well. its more like walk a foot. STOP. sniff. sit. look. get scared by a passing car. get up. STOP. sniff -----Me dragging him----him walking. STOP. sit. Sniff and sooooo on.

monday - day before MAYBE strike

i went to bed tonight not knowing what i was going to wake up to...more school, jesus school, or a break. I guess i was really thinking about it because i kept having dreams that i would wake up and ask Brian what the deal was and he'd say they are still thinking, they'll know by Saturday. then i would actually wake up and wonder if that really happened. I think i had that dream 5 times and everytime it was a different day! But finally when my alarm went off i was awoken my the smooth sounds of U2 i think. After the song was over my long awaited announcement was made. "AND THE STRIKE IS ON" *sigh*

clock reads 7:30am

time to get up and rub it in Bri's Face LOL, yawn

He's typin' away on his compy. I feel a little more relaxed, although now i have no idea when it will end so i will never get to fully enjoy my break.......and how will i know its over! i guess im on news patrol.

so today i got another message from the old house mates ....supposedly the router sucks so i had to bring the other one back. Bri and I went to future shop to get a brand-spankin-new one. we get home plug er in and it's instantly fried.

Bri - the lights not coming on! did you plug it in?
me - yes its right in there!
Bri - It smells like burning! does it smell like burning to you?
me - sniff sniff ......yes, it really does!

back to future shop, on the way explain how to setup router to old roomies. Get new router. come home.

so it looks like i am leaving tomorrow to go back to alliston! I am gonna miss Bri alot, i may be gone for two weeks...thats a long while.

Oh man panic state.....?&*^%$#%$#%???>!??!@?>!<$?

played james Bond alot today i actually got somewhere this time, thank god, or i would have kicked in the Game Cube!

off to the book, i am in a ready MOOD

Thursday, February 23

blahhhhhh

yesterday was mighty productive, Bri and I cleaned the apartment pretty good. tomorrow is my last day at maternity then i am free of Angie! I mean shes a nice person, but i just don't like her that much as a teacher. I am not even sure if we are having those end of routation parties, i probably won't go but it would be nice to see all my groupies when we are not at the hospital!

exercises continue, my knee is doing better by the way which is a very good thing. It still causes a little bit of discomfort but i just take some ibuprofen and i am all good.

Humm theres not much else thats new, well maybe, i have been talking to Adas recently, sadly him and his girlfriend broke up. But on the positive side Him and scott want me to go snowboarding with them, maybe give them a few tips.

other then that there is really nothing much going on right now.

My grandpa had his surgery yesterday and it went very successfully which is very good news for my family and I.

well i should get ready for placement

miracle in 12 foster

ever since i stopped drinking milk 2 and some odd years ago (because i became lactose intolerent) my joints have been detereriating, i feel it now in my 20th year.

My knee and now my wrists

but out of now where a miracle sprange upon me, i have become lactose tolerent again. I have been drinking milk for the past three weeks and nothing odd has been happening to my stomach, i feel great and let me tell you i miss milk so much and not "Skim Milk" i mean real Homo Milk 3.25% baby

I am also glad to report that my knee is feeling alot better since last week.

i think its almost time to start packing for the move, i need some boxes. looks like its time to go garbage surfing again.

Everything is coming down to the wire.

Everything has been happening so fast lately. I mean hearing about the college going on strike is not a good thing....Well not a good thing in the long run, but there are a few pluses to it short term-ly. I'll have more time to study and work on my portfolio which would be kinda nice, moving in wouldn't feel so rushed and i could take a little time to breath and really think about my future.

Its all coming at me so fast now, in less then 10 days i will have a NEW place, its going to be different. After two long years of living in an unorganized crazy house, I'll actually have some calm. Matching towels in the bath room. Is that my sense of clam? Am i crazy? im not sure but if anything i am pretty close.

I had a talk with Ally a couple weeks ago about what its like living with a guy. She tells me that even if you have never had PMS, you will obtain this dreadful disease once living with a man. And which i can kind of agree with her, but its not so bad at least i don't think????

I guess insecurity would be one of those things i am feeling right now, you know that voice in the back of my head saying well what if something were to go wrong, where would i go? But i feel confident enough that everything will go well. I think for the first time in my life i can let my guard down. i love Brian alot, I'd trust him with my life and the thing that makes it really weird is that he loves me back (or at least that's what he tells me) <---not meant to be taken seriously*
I always find myslef writting these things so late at night, i have urge writting.

I have been think about my grandpa alot lately, i don't think the seriousness has hit me yet, i am not sure if its the distance thing. Of all people i should know how serious it is, i see people every week with serious illness some being cancer patients. I think i just need to see him, make sure he's ok. I never thought about this part of being so far away from my family.

Well i am tired and still have a night time ritual to pull off. My lonely bed awaits me!

Saturday, February 18

Its all done for now

I see that google is all fancied up for the Olympics!

Saturday was awesome fun, Jackie Actually came out with me to Brian's (Where we met up with Bob and Bri) then to Matt's house (where there was a tone of people including Dan, Martin, Matt, Ted and more random people i didn't know or was to drunk to get to know). We drank there for a while then the rather large and still growing gang headed to Philthy's. Many pictures of Beer were bought and i think i may have danced with every guy in the bar LOL not really but i was haven' some fun. When it came to the end of the night i wanted to go home so i told Bri that i was just going to give Jackie her coat and we could tour. Well when i found Jackie, she was already gone. Freamo Looked at me and said take her HOME. damnnnn
So i ended up draggin' Jackie out of Philthy's, Seriously I had to pick her up and carry her out the door. So It Was Brian, Jackie and I walking back to his place, i wonder what happened to BOB? Jackie took me down half way home and now i have a huge bruise and indent on my knee ( The hurt One, which by the way is still hurting)
Finally got home and put Jackie to bed. Next thing i know Jackie is calling my name, i open my eyes and shes standing in Bri's room. We rush out and she informs be that her bladder lost control on the futton. heres BRIAN ...NOT SO HAPPY!

Other then the falling, ripping my pants and hurting my knee, the night was great!

THe rest of the weekend I spent with my nose in the Books

So I just finished writing the test that took forever to study for and now i am going go buy some essentials for tomorrows Valentines Day Dinner.

this knee isn't funny

recently my knee has been causing me pain and its grinding whenever i bend it. Now i find this to be very annoying esspecially because of my new exersice...i can't do the one leg because my knee clicks and hurts. I didn't do anything to cause this to happen so i am pretty much confused. I think i may ask Angie's opinion on it today! maybe ill have to see a doctor or get some x-rays. I am not sure, but i hope its not breakdown of cartilige because thats not good, i don't want surgery!

first time in a long time

i had this craving last night for milk and cookies so Bri and I went over to loblaws and i got some chewy chips a hoy and HOmo milk UMMMMMMMMMMMMM. I haven't had milk in such a long time and it was so perfect like i remember.

I also ended upgoing out with all 5 girls from 12 Foster last night too. We had alot of fun, we started at mybar and drank the $2 tall boys ...by the way i hate beer! then headed to Philthy's ........me and Miranda kicked a huge ice chunk almost all the way from Mybar to Philthy's and I landed on my ass by the way. When me and miranda got there we were the only two in the whole bar, it was pretty funny actually and the the rest of the crew came on over and we did tequila shots or in lindsays words Shaquila Tots. After that we headed to Nicks house were Jacki became so drunk that i had to hold her up. Dallas was bangin up a storm on the drums so i joined in that was until we were rudely interupted by Allen, he stole the drum sticks and left. We finaly decided to go home so we called a cab and huled ass!

and i just was informed that jackie Puked in the cab which made their cab ride $80 holy shit
my original idea was to walk her to Brian's house and she would have puked on the way over here, but lindsay wouldn't let me! Oh well

My thighs hurt so much that i actually walk funny!

so on to my yummy cheerios with fresh strawberries ummmmm umm

Bloggin'n'Floggin'
Feb 22 2006
and It will have been one whole year!
and its gone so Fast!

Hey kitty kitty


I am addicted to Need For Speed: Most Wanted, its a horrible addiction and im even thinking about buying it for my GameCube.....My fantastic GameCube. Its the most joyfully Cube I know. I have 3 controllers for it and Bob bought one too! We have had a couple Mario Part 7 parties that involved drinking and a lot of violence. My anger really shines through when I loss games.

One Game that Bri got for me i used to really enjoy..i was a champ at it ...Soul Calibur II
but now i just plane suck and i can't even beat the first level. What's up with that?

What i am listening to right now: Tainted Love - Soft Cell


I am planning to go out on Saturday to Philithy's, I hear Das is coming to town for Kirkey's celebration Party and id like to see them both and who ever else is there. I am also trying to get Dallas, Jackie and Lindsay to come out with me. They Have this bet going on right now between the three of them that non of them will go out or drink alcohol for 2 and a half weeks ...Or something like that. I have tried to crack Lindsay but she really doesn't want to cheat!

that's a first for her!

i know i say this everytime but i have started to exercise now...Again LOL

A couple weeks ago i was doing insane amounts of sit ups and leg exercises but that faded off. Well yesterday i went to return a pair of jeans and this girl at the counter asked me why? And i said cause i think my Thighs are to big and I'd rather wait till i am more in shape....She then mentioned she had that problem at one point so she started doing lunges and it made a big difference......Sooooo as you have gathered from that conversation that's what i will be doing along with some pectoral exercises hehehe i figure it could decrease my bra size. Hey it worked for my mom!

Any way class in a half hour
later gator

less frequently involved

This school is getting me down. I have overheard many talks of how the RPn is not going to be able to get a job once they finish, it makes me feel like i am wasting time here, but at the same time i feel that i have found a different path to walk down. Its kinda creepy to look back at all the descions i have made, and just to think that if i had change one of them i would not be here right now.

i have met so many awesome unique people while i have been in kingston. Alot i don't see as frequently as i used to which is kind of a bummer, but thats what life is all about.

February is here and that means there are only 23 days left till i get to move in withB ri. I have had enough of this trying to live in two places at one(its alot harder then you'd think). I have settled the uneasyness with Jackie and it feels alot better to. The worst thing would be to leave this house on not so good trems with her.

So Here it is the ode to HOuse

12 Foster you have been great on some cases and not so great on others

but in general i have enjoyed my time here. It has saddend me to see these newbee house hunters tromping through our house peering their big eyes into our private rooms. come May this place will be someone elses and all we will have is our memories and pictures.

Back in the swing of things

Last night I went skating with Bri, Bob and Kelly. It was a lot of fun. I did some pretty sweet falls LOL. Now I am just waiting for My photography class to start. I went and picked up that starter kit that the teacher told me we needed . It came to $113. AHhhhh.

I am just super anxious for the end of Feb to come so I can move out of this house.

Lately the girls have been getting me down because it seems like they go about eating my food and I don't say anything to them because I don't want to start a fight and sound like a baby, but when one of their food item's goes missing its the biggest deal. Laura was asking where her Banana went, Jackie ...Asking where her cabbage went. So out of pure anger I said well who the fuck drank my apple juice? Jackie replys " that was my apple Juice" Oh man this is where I really had to hold my self back. Bri had brought over a can for our dinner and I opened it up and we had some out of it. She assumes its hers because its the same kind and then drinks the rest of it. What the Hell. All my butter GONE. Miranda eating my English muffins and then saying they were hers! I had just gone grocery shopping and they were already taking the few item's that I got.


*ANGER TAKING OVER ME*

Calming down. Then there is still the dishes situation. Totally gross! I walked into the kitchen this morning and I couldn't even see the counter. I am not buying anymore groceries for my house! Ever!

what I am listening to: Crazy Town -Only When im Drunk

Saturday was pretty Fun, drank with Dallas, Bri, Jackie, Katie and Jackies ex BF and friend.
I ended up with a really hurty bruise on my knee and I think its getting bigger.

Monday, January 9

whos back?

So its back to blogging after a long break. I miss the break already, it was such a great break. No homework .... no homework. It was great, but now i am back!

I am really energized about my photography class. I have taken one before, but that was in highschool, I have faith that this class will offer more skills in the ways of the Camera! anyway, i am gonna go check to see if our door is done yet!

theres enough anger for all of us

I have realized over that last little while that all blog people seem to be really mad. I think its a way to control your anger. And when i read my blog i see tthat i am kinda angry to. I am thinking and this may sounds very strange, but i think some peoples standards are to low. I get the eye from some of my friends when i complain at resturants. I just figure the logic behind it is that we work hard for our money and we expect everyone else should. I am not going to pay them the same amount i would be getting paid to do a half assed job. this might also steam into the fact that i hate the fact that for the longest time people wouldn't hire me because i wasn't from kingston. I must have gotten 1o interviews and i had no job. I even had second interviews, still nothing. the only places that would hire me was mcdonalds.

and now i have moved back into my house and i feel this anger building again. so on ward blogging
