Winds of change.
I’ve finally got some time to myself to sit down and write an update. The thing is, I really don’t want to @ the moment. I hadn’t really thought of what I’d say.... It’s probably because I haven’t been on here as much as of late. I’m sure it will all start to flow out of me.
I am talking to you all now from Planet Bean, a quaint little coffee shop literally in the center of downtown Guelph. They have a nice looking chess set atop a small bookshelf. The bookshelf has a sign which reads:
“Feel free to read any book you want within the store.
Trades - bring your book and the book you desire to the counter and the barista will use their discretion to decide if it is a fair trade....”
For some reason this is really cool to me. It in essence speaks to the nature of the people here in Guelph (at least in my minds eye). Tho I haven’t really been socializing that much, I’ve been getting to know the town. I moved up here on Saturday. Thanks to Kris. There was so much drama with me getting here that FULLY pissed me the fuck off. Dan who has said a week earlier that he would move me ended up cancelling because he wanted to gym and ended up getting too tired. Dickhead. Neither Tash or Karl would take a few hours out of their day to get me up here either which actually hurt the most. Dale said you should never expect anything from anybody. I refuse to believe that tho, I mean what are best friends for right? True colors revealed (remind me about the true colors story about dale is you’re interested later). I guess I was pretty upset as well because of my feelings for Tash. Well fuck her. What a child..... I should be less bitter. It’s probably a bad energy to be carrying.
One of the 1st things I did was get a bus pass and I’m becoming well acquainted with getting around. On Sunday I came downtown for the 1st time and scoped a few places that I wanted to check out today. I’ve actually making some progress on my to do list. I have gone into the job search center, and am heading back there later to work on my resume. I went to the Drop-in center, and got myself signed up to do some community service...... shit...... I totally haven’t gotten into why I need to do community service.....
Jesus I should blog more.....
And yea, i feel like it’s starting to flow.
Soooo I was recently charged with group possession of cocaine. (another part of my life going 2 shit)
It was a bullshit charge, which I can explain later upon request. My 1st appearance was on the 1st of May where I found out, if I can complete 35hrs of community service by the 27th, all charges will be dropped.
So at the drop in center, i spoke to sister Christine who told me I start tomorrow. I wonder if she remembers seeing me that fateful day of my spiritual experience here. I remember looking into her eyes and seeing a sparkle there. Even seeing her work today was captivating. She has a presence. If there is any kind of dispute in the center, she walks over and its almost immediately settled. I can’t wait to work with her.
So my loft is amazing! We haven’t been able to move any of the furniture into the rooms because the carpets needed to be steam cleaned but that was being taken care of when I left this morning. I can’t wait to see the place and to finally move in. There is only one other person in the house at the moment. Her name is Alex, and she seems like a real sweetheart. We’ve got along well over the weekend, but actually got to know each other yesterday night. She has always done family/group activities on Sunday nights, so she wanted to hang out. We talked over chicken fingers and hot chocolate, for a few hours. I haven’t decided if I LIKE like her of if i even should. I guess we’ll see.
I’m avoiding working on my resume right now. I have to get it ready and put some copies out so I’ll get to that.
