The countdown to whatever starts sometime.....

Ky.. this music video is for you... because I know how much we both love HIM...


Is it already almost the end of the year? Thank God I'm ready to rip my hair out over school. It's driving me crazy! I have only one project left, then I have to edit a story, then do three exams and then I'm done!

So this post is going to do a little recap of what's been happening, and then at the bottom there's a bit of news that may or may not be exciting depending on who's reading at the moment.

1) Skirt Adventure: Lisa M and Jilly and I (and Alleah when we found her on the bus... we're her bitches since she was wearing jeans) had planned on going on an adventure together after we had so much fun going on the brief Wal-Mart adventure. So we decided that Thursday after class we were going to have our fun... in skirts! We figured the weather would be nice enough to be able to wear them. We were only half right. So after stopping at Jilly's house so she could get her skirt, we headed for the bus stop. Lisa was our conserved and girly, Jilly was the bright and crazy (in a good way), I was the punkish with my imitation combat boots. We soon enough found ourselves at Woodgrove and I stop into HMV to get my brother a birthday present (the Primus 'Hallucino-Genics' concert DVD to those who are interested) as well as got myself the DVD of the two CSI episodes directed by Tarantino because it was on sale. We ran into a fair bit of people while we were in the food court too. I got a Blizzard for me and Nabil and then Alleah and I visited Kitty at work. From there we went shoe shopping/browsing with Alleah to find sexy shoes for her sexy dress, got sidetracked into Lush (one place I had never been before and will visit many times in the future), headed for the Mac counter in the Bay and all but Lisa gave into the alluring, yet expensive, call of Mac make-up. Mariposa came next where we tried on dresses for the fun of it. I managed to get three pictures taken before the girl told me to stop. Sorry I didn't get one of you Lisa, dear. (When I get my memory card back from Geoff I'll post these pictures) I ended up looking like an anime character apparently, though I don't remember what my name got changed to. I want that dress so badly and it fit amazingly. After pining over dresses, we stop in Bryans and looked at the prom stuff. Went to La Senza where we found some sexy things and Alleah and I decided that we needed to leave because we make good shoulder devils for each other and we didn't need to be sexy kittens (literally, we found a sex kit with a cat mask, but it was sexy). Checked out one last shoe store, then chilled out waiting for the bus for a bit. We jumped on the bus and I'd say we had a pretty darn good time. Made up for crappy Frogs for sure...

2) Andy: Yup, Andy is here! He got here early on Friday and we've been chilling out since then. We watched my CSI episodes before I had to go to work. I worked my four hours and Andy went to the mall and then came back when the mall closed at 5 because of the stat, and gave me a present for our (early) one year anniversary (it's actually next month but at the time we weren't sure if we'd be in the same place at the same time), so I now own Donnie Darko. Joy! We chilled here after work and Andy almost passed out from lack of sleep and then after Scrubs was over we went to sleep. Yesterday we got some cleaning done around the house and found that Tanya had yet to bring the vacuum cleaner home so I was stressing out and started cleaning with the tiny vacuum, which is meant for edges and stuff. I was also talking to my family on the phone and we both chatted and whatnot on my laptop. Then I had to work again. But after that, we went on a double date with Kitty and Terry. Went to Kelsey's for dinner and tried to talk Kitty into seeing Grindhouse, but with no luck. So instead we went back to Terry's place and 'used the Force' (aka: enjoyed his R2D2 bong) while trying to decide which movie we wanted to watch. We convinced Kitty to watch Four Rooms (in which case we probably could have just gone to Grindhouse) and I have to say that I highly enjoyed it. Yet another movie I have to add to my collection as it would cover two of my goals. Today we're going to hang out here and Andy's gonna make me dinner. Today is the day we open that bottle of wine that's been sitting in my closet since I moved here. I've had that bottle of Charlie's home-made wine pretty much since Andy and I started dating, so it's either going to be really good... or vinegar. Tomorrow the plan is to hang out with an old friend from CR and then go to Hitchhiker's. I have to send him home on Tuesday.

3) New Title: I went to the Cambie with Geoff on Tuesday for the show. I pretty much got dubbed "Hot Birds and Bees #1 fan" or something like that. Can't help it if I like your music, guys! I took some videos for a friend in Alberta and she agreed that they were awesome. Tried to post them on YouTube, but the files were too big. Need to try and figure out how to make them smaller...

4) Good or Not so Good news: I've decided to go back to CR for the summer. Looking for a place to rent was getting seriously stressful on me and I was have multiple freak-outs over it. Dad tells me that I can probably get a job out there with the municipality doing gardens and stuff that's going to pay me like 14$ an hour for like 5 days a week and I won't have to pay rent. Plus I'll get to see my family and friends and Andy consistently for a few months before coming back down here. Not that I won't miss you Nanaimo people though. I will. Hopefully by the time I get back down here, Andy will be moving with me, so next year I will probably be way less stressed out all the time. Though I won't be totally out of here. I'll have to come back every Tuesday and Thursday from June to August for a writing class. So as long as I know a while in advance and can get home before the next morning so Mom can use the car to get to work, I'm sure that there would be no problem doing things after class with you Nanaimo kids. Maybe by the time I come back I'll have a ton o' money..

Well I think that's everything for the time being. I guess I can always update again if I think of something else. HAPPY LONG WEEKEND EVERYONE!!
