(no subject)

Tomorrow I'm putting in my two weeks notice. Then I'm buying a one way ticket to Montreal where I will meet up with Cole. Then I want to see the east coast and perhaps back track to Ottawa and Toronto. Then, I will probably head home. I'm not bringing more than  backpack. 
I have a sore throat. I'm sure beer is not the best thing for it but I don't really care right now. We all know dehydration is good for sickness. It's either beer or coffee, as I'm sitting in a coffeeshop using my roommates computer. I guess tea would do too, I don't care for tea, 'cept yerba mate. Perhaps I'll quit coffee. It was a liberating moment the day I decided making coffee would not be my method of survival. Enough on that subject though. I'm way too obsessive. I don't recall not having an obsession. When I was a kid it was trying to learn everything I possibly could about space, or memorizing the entire script of Back to the Future. Then as a teen it was an eating disorder, or reading every book by third wave feminists about eating disorders. Then, for some strange reason, it became coffee. I no longer identify myself as a feminist. I was such an awkward teenager.
On the subject of graduating from adolescence...In Montreal I will be of legal drinking age. On the contrary, the day I plan on leaving is also election day, making it difficult to vote. One adult right lost the same day as another gained.
Being legal drinking age wont be any different. I can always order alcohol in restraunts should I feel like it, all my friends are over the age of 19,  I can borrow id to get into concerts and I've already borrowed Ariana's id to get into clubs and learned that i'd rather die than spend another night in a overpacked, perfumed room of horny guys and drunk girls who can't walk properly because of their hideous $150 aldo rip offs of useless Jimmy Choos.
So many of my friends have no intention on voting. I don't get how someone would justify not voting.
