It's weird being in a place in my life where I'm not uncomfortable with silences and I don't have to fill space with constant mindless chatter. Infact, lately I've really been enjoying calmness, stillness, quiet and certainty...for the first time in my life. Although it makes me feel nervous that I'm getting old! Isn't anxiety, nervousness, stupidity, chaos, and drama signs of youth !?! Why do the words mortgage, marriage, children and suburbs send a sharp chill down my back?
In other news, I had a nice CALM walk with Masami today. We took pictures of gardens around Cambie Street (aging)! Anywho, it was fun. I realize that I'm actually starting to de-stress from school because I was actually relaxing my shoulders a bit. I went into a couple of stores and had long conversations with the people in the stores. I normally feel so internally rushed in life that I've got half my body out the door before I've even been given the change. I got the lowdown on some girls school, parental wealth, hair cut ideas, cultural opinions, and talked to some other chick about her european heritage, her freckles and her expanding ass. Then covered the topic of the age "25" with a fellow 1980 birth child. Main Street seemed pretty friendly after that! The weather has been fantastic the last couple of days! Absolutely freaking beautiful!
I've got the hiccups right now. It's making typing a challenge.
So, school is done for now. I hung out w/ Masami, Adam and Chris last night at Wazubi's (the few places open after 12 pm - Vancouver the great party city....yawn!). I went for a lengthy walk with Jayme during the day through Granville Island and had some eats at Bridges, where we were accosted by some drunk New Zealand guy. We watched a bit of the sunset go down behind a giant stack of deck chairs. I took some pretty great photos, the best of all was a giant close up of my nostril, which was quickly erased. I'm going to attempt to upload them to the journal sometime soon.
My brother starts flying for an airline company he works for tomorrow in Pemberton. He's going to be gone for a couple of days. Good for him!
I heart Huckabees is such a funny movie.
I've hung out w/ Chris a lot lately. He's really, really special and I'm so glad we get along so well and mutually like each other a lot. It sure makes the world seem a lot rosier! How lucky am I !?!?!
News outside of my head....Paul Martin delivered a public address regarding the sponsership scandal. There will be another election some time this year.
