so when i got back to montreal, i returned to my room and apparently my absence had been noticed. angus stopped in, gave me a hug and watched bits of pretty in pink with me and alex. alex came up the hill for a visit, tho it was to occupy his time around campus more than an "i missed you thing." roya came upstairs when she got home. there was hugging and jumping when we were reunited for the brief two days before she went home. i ate with friends and everyone was shocked to see me and more so to see me with straight hair. i went to IRC with sarah and then came home. i watched the part where the leafs were winning against the sens. then i watched dogma with john, julian, daniel and erika.
the next day was the miserable mid-term that lead me straight for the shitty food in my room and depressed me so much that i watched the virgin suicides. but i was soon cheered up. amy, roya, and i went to j.mraz. there we met up with raimi, ali and crew and eventually we bumped into than and co. the concert was pretty fucking amazing... i mean i've never wanted to get up on stage and jump someone more in my entire life.
on friday night i went out grocery shopping and bought movies and a pillow with john. i then invited people over for movies and first we watched the graduate with john in his room... but then we came upstairs to mine. john stayed downstairs to "go to the millenium club" aka getting drunk on a friday. the rest of us stayed sober and watched casablanca and then eventually, after an israeli dance party, the rocky horror picture show. when i finally kicked dan and alex out, it was 3:30. my room was trashed and i went to sleep.
the next day, i was woken up by angus asking for money for turkey forgetting that i don't eat meat. i used my consciousness to make cranberry sauce. then i cleaned, i mean cleaned my room. we had a potluck downstairs that was delicious. then i went to brutopia with susannah to have a drink with than... then we came home... stopped at SAQ where i bought my first bottle of hard liquor... yummy gin. and we then sat around sharp's room drinking gin and tonic, rum and coke and watching lock, stock and two smoking barrels and guess what? I FELL ASLEEP! (it's my terrible habbit).
yesterday dan came over around 11 and we baked a pie, pumpkin pie from scratch. tracy kent stopped by. we all went to lola rosa's for lunch. tracy convinced me to smoke some hash before dinner, so i did and then i was able to pack in the food. dinner at ali and raimi's was nice. i saw and talked to sam. shelley was there. sam laughed about the relationship we once had. had we not been in a crowded room, i would have told him the truth of the matter. all i told him was that things are different than how i planned them. dan and i came back pretty drunk when they were all going out to barfly. we're both lightweights. sol came upstairs when we got home. dan and sol watched super troopers, i slept... quelle surprise.
on a self-improvement note, i need to be less cynical and more polite. i also need to stop doing the confide in everyone so that they all feel the same as me. personal thoughts can be shared with one or two people... and also i should do more listening than trying to override other peoples problems. this is what i am going to be working on.
today i will be doing homework and enjoying the cold as an excuse to stay indoors.
ps- the only thing i miss about october in the states is that it's a month focused on halloween while here there's thanksgiving to distract you... and personally i love to be scared for a month straight.
