Denis got into Waterloo to do his Masters. He's there right now. The school flew him out to see it. I've been texting him, and he's been telling me how he's been loving every single minute of it. I'm really happy for him, but I'm kind of jealous at the same time. I'm jealous he gets to move there soon and I still have to be here. So many ( Read more... )

I work at superstore. I've made some of my best Halifax friends there. But like any retail type job, the turn over is huge. In addition to that, a lot of people that I used to be friends with have changed (or I have changed, or we both have) and they've become someone intolerable. One guy became an engineer and thus boy poison and has slowly ( Read more... )

Last year, I became fast friends with this girl at my work called Catherine.  She was super cool, and we had a lot in common, and we just generally enjoyed each other.  She'd met this guy online that lived in Edmonton and was all swoony over him.  Eventually, they met in Toronto, he came back to Halifax, went back to Alberta, then came back to NS ( Read more... )

Sometimes I doubt the truthfulness of some of the things Tierney tells me.  She and her friend Trent rent this condo from this guy called David Tam.  A few months ago, she told me that David Tam called her and told her that he was going to be kicking Trent out because he hadn't paid his rent for a few months and was just sick of it.  But he was ( Read more... )

I've taken to walking to school.  If I have a good pace, it takes about 45 minutes to get to campus, and time is then adjusted based on where on campus i have to go (i.e. it takes longer to get to the compy sci building where I have my first class on MWF then it does to get to the library where my jazz class is).  Yesterday, before I left my house ( Read more... )

A few months back, I became fast friends with this girl Catherine at my work.  We had a lot in common and just generally had a lot of fun together.  Around the same time, she started talking to this guy online who lives in Edmonton.  They emailed more and more and started texting and speaking on the phone.  Now, I know I cannot judge the finding ( Read more... )

As you may or may not know, I broke my finger on Thursday. Dropped a weight on it at the gym.  It was really awesome.  So now I have a splint and its hard to do anything.  Work, write, type, put my hair up, everything.  I have this assignment due on monday and its taken me ages to do it because I have to write so slowly so its legible.  To top it ( Read more... )

Last night I had a date with Cat, my NSBFF.  We started at a pub called Your Father's Moustache (which has pictures on the wall of men with crazy moustaches, it's awesome) and then went to an Irish pub called Durty Nelly's.  I'd recently told Cat about a new wave of Irish immigrants coming to Canada, and we decided if the Irish would be anywhere in ( Read more... )

I have this friend at school called Denny.  Well, he's called Denis, but I"m not sure if that's Dennis, or if it's Denny (because he's French).  Our compy sci prof called him Denny, but he also calls Dylan Die-lan.  So we can't really go by what he says.  Denny hasn't corrected me yet.  But I digress ( Read more... )

I decided that I'm going to make turkey for Easter.  I was talking to my friend Cat, and I asked her if she was going home, and she's kind of avoiding home right now, so she said no.  I said I was thinking about making turkey.  She said she would eat it.  And she said she would supply eggs for a hunt.   I told her she would have to eat on the floor ( Read more... )
