I've passively scolded Ling Ling for not updating her space only to realize that I haven't updated this space for a period 1.5 months.
What's to update??
Well I had my b-day and it was aight, nice and quaint...dinna at east side mario's and then to the blue jays game. We lost, so sad!
I'm now officially moved into my parent's house after about a month of not having my own space, I got my own and now it's not as fuckin terrible as it was at first. :) I'm in the den, the smallest room in the house, but what can you do?
I've been keeping busy with procrastinating a lot and doing a lot of absolutely nothing. :P
I got my course in September and I've done nothing with it. I wrote the first essay and then discovered that I was doing it wrong and so I stopped working on it. Every day, I say 'tmrw' and then tmrw comes and nothing is completed.
My youth centre is going well, we've started up again and that always takes a couple weeks to get things all up and a runnin!!! We've got 3 strong staff now and so I'm lookin forward to the future of the place. I've got my focus on just it, so that certainly helps too.
I went to Trenton for a wedding in the early september and that was aight. Trenton isn't the biggest shit hole in the world.
I won tickets to see and meet one of my fav. bands, the scissor sisters. The concert was cancelled this past Tuesday, so that kinda sucked.
It was one of my friend's b-day this past week, so I partied it up this past wknd.
Come this Friday, I'm going to Montreal for the wknd. I haven't been for almost a year and I think that I'm prepared to visit it again. I was there way too much last year. It should be fun. I just wanna chill in old montreal and watch ppl go by in house n buggy. ;)
I leavve on the 26th for my journey through the west of Canada. I'm taking the train and using the canrail pass. $563 for 12 days of travel over 30 days. :)~ it kinds suck, cuz if the train leaves at like 11pm and arrives at 1am the next day, they count that as 2 days of travel...but whatever. presently, i'm going to winnipeg, edmonton, and vancouver/victoria. i was gonna go to jasper, but the travel ppl there don't seem to think that it's the greatest idea. which is kinda tarded...but we'll see. i don't really know what to expect from my trip. it'll be a chance to get away, see some of canada, maybe find a new place to live, who the fuck knows. either way, i've got a month away from the fam and that'll be a nice break. plus, now i can be like 'hey, i went on a trip.' mostly, i just hope to do some of my school work, take yoga a few times a week and drink till i puke on most evenings. ;)
i'm d/l-ing music for my trip. i went to thepiratebay.org and i'm d/l-ing various stuff. me being a bit of a pop whore, i've d/l-ed the rolling stones' greatest songs of all time..there's like 500 songs...so it's a slow download and in other news...the latest pink album. surprisingly, i'm like 4 songs in and there's some aight stuff on it. not a fan of stupid girls, but i can understand how the girlies might be all like 'yah, don't be stupid..let's all go be president.' but blah...it'll be quiet enough to not annoy the other passengers on my trip. i'm lookin at d/l-ing the fray...cuz i've liked a cpl of their songs. i need to find some new obscure type bands to inspire me to really like music again. i like music, but there's nothing that inspires me like it did back when i was younger.
i took a dub poetry workshop last week and that was pretty fuckin cool. it's part of this drama group that i'm doing. i'm slowly learnin diff. things about my artistry and that's fun. my many notebooks of writing may finally come to use. :)
i'm plannin on fillin notebooks with information on my trips and just mailin them back to markham as i finish them off. :)
that's really it, i'm sure there's more, but my memory is shit as of late.
