"would you be willing to participate in a hot dog protest?"
Date: April 28th 2003
Feeling...: excited for prom all over again :)
Listening to: "Walk Unafraid" by REM
Excitement brewing over: oh. I already answered that in "feeling...:"
Concerned about: finding shoes for prom. damn those stiletto heels...
People/things that made me smile: remembering all the little inside jokes we've had over the years...that, and the awesome weather
Additional witty comments (heh heh heh): Alright so it was Rocky's bday on Saturday and we went downtown to Marche's for lunch - which for me consisted of a Belgian waffle (with strawberries, ice cream and chocolate sauce of course). Afterwards we had some time to kill and Carly brought her camcorder...I don't know whose brilliant idea it was but we decided to film a "mock-umentary" and we went around asking people for their opinions on hot dog vendors in downtown Toronto. It was just TOO funny! It was as though some people had already seriously contemplated the topic, cause we got some very elaborate responses. Many were outraged when we told them that Mayor Mel was threatening to ban the sale of hot dogs by vendors due to "recent health concerns" (it's not true but who KNOWS what can happen in this crazy SARS-ified city we live in...)
meh...end of the hockey season = SUMMER'S HERE!
Date: April 22nd 2003
Feeling...: very popular :P my weekends are booked up from now till late June heh heh heh
Listening to: "Can't Stop" by the Red Hot Chili Peppers...heard it once today and now it's stuck in my head. Hmph.
Excitement brewing over: EVERYTHING that's coming up in the next two months!! But immediately, Rocky's bday :)
Concerned about: SARS, actually. Hey. I go to A.Y. - it's legit
People/things that made me smile: watching video footage from grade 10 parties w/the girls
Additional witty comments (heh heh heh): This weekend was so nice, I did a little bit of everything I love :) Spent lotsa time with the family; did some shopping; went out a couple of times with friends; solved some *ahem* problems (heh heh heh...)...just had a good break :)
On a sad note, the Leafs are right now in the process of losing miserably to the Flyers...*sigh* I wonder if I'll live to see the day we win another cup. That will be absolutely C-R-A-Z-Y...lotsa broken store windows and drunken idiots with face paint running around screaming "WE'RE NUMBER ONE!!" Oh, the glory...
I'm cold. What happened to yesterday's warmth??
Date: April 16th 2003
Feeling...: sooooo relaxed...ahhh, five-day weekend
Listening to: "Ticket to Ride" playing in my head...over and over and over and...
Excitement brewing over: cutting Julia's hair tomorrow. I should start charging for my expert services...
Concerned about: getting sick. EVERYone around me is sick, it's only a matter of time...
People/things that made me smile: Mr. Gross as our French supply teacher. Actually, on second thought that wasn't a smile, it was more like a disgusted shudder...*ugh*...
Additional witty comments (heh heh heh): Still can't believe how nice it was outside yesterday...and how crappy it is today. Oh well, at least there's MORE nice weather coming...that's the worst part about fall. I love the weather but at the back of my mind I know that it's just gonna get nastier from here...Spring is validating, you get excited about the weather and you know there's lots more comin' baby!! :D
Ahhhhh, five-day weekend...this is more time off than I got over the March Break, cause of the day camp I was involved in...Anyhoo, gotta go cause it's Game 3 and the Leafs are tied 1-1 with the Flyers...GO LEAFS GO!! (to the semi finals, anyway...please??)
the sound of sunshine
Date: April 13th 2003
Feeling...: relaxed
Listening to: birds twittering outside my window
Excitement brewing over: the warm weather that's hopefully here to stay!!
Concerned about: ...nothing, actually :)
People/things that made me smile: my dad finally agreeing to let me drive with him in the car!!
Additional witty comments (heh heh heh): I finally saw Bollywood/Hollywood on Friday...it was Grease meets Lagaan with a little My Big Fat Greek Wedding thrown in. Laughed my ASS off at the grandmother who kept quoting Shakespeare ("Et tu, Brutus?") and was thoroughly entertained by the fact that it was shot in Toronto. Felt like a downright celebrity when I realized that a pivotal moment in the plot - when Sue and Rahul finally confess they like eachother - was filmed at Fairview Mall (LOL)
In other news, my dad FINALLY put his life at risk and let me drive with him in the car. This, as most of you realize, is a momentous occasion and deserves a major cookie bake-off (lol I'll bring 'em tomorrow hopefully)
Alright the barbeque beckons...ttfn ;)
sunshine, lollipops and rainbows (we're getting closer...)
Date: April 10th 2003
Feeling...: satisfied with my purchases :)
Listening to: the sound of snow and ice melting *hurray*
Excitement brewing over: trying on my new makeup
Concerned about: possibly...getting a prom date...yes I know, I'll stop
People/things that made me smile: taking Budd for a romp in the puddles
Additional witty comments (heh heh heh): Hopefully this isn't just a tease and the good weather we've been getting for the past couple of days is here to stay. I'm thoroughly enjoying the sunshine and semi-warmth (hey, we're getting there). Felt so good that I treated myself to some new eye makeup from "Faces" - although my recent discovery that they don't test on animals was the greater contributing factor. It's eyes! It's lips! It's YOU! (lol)
stupid vandals...I'll smash YOU...
Date:April 7th 2003
Feeling...: tired...blast these daylight savings shenanigans
Listening to: "Eve" by Chantal Kreviazuk
Excitement brewing over: letting Cindy chase all the Enigma writers down for their topic selections
Concerned about: this huge drama project that's due at the end of the week and that we haven't even really started...*eek*
People/things that made me smile: the pictures Denise took of me...I just love 'em, thanks Dindin :)
Additional witty comments (heh heh heh): So our beautiful truck got broken into last night, along with most of the other cars in our townhouse complex's garage...these idiots just came in, smashed some windows, stole what few pennies worth of stuff there was in the cars, and left. *Sigh* it would be naive to think that the risk of that happening wasn't there before yesterday, but I guess it's not something you figure will happen to you - until it does. Anyway while they're fixing it up the insurance company's given us this BUTT-ugly rental car...it's a Honda Accord or something, I don't even care what it is actually cause it's just so god-awful. It's got the most boring color, cheap-looking design, and crappy features I've ever seen on/in a car. And I'm not even allowed to drive it. Hmph. Communists. (lol)
Meanwhile we picked the new execs for Enigma (oh hey, is this supposed to be a secret? Oh well, it's not like anyone important reads th - I mean SHHHHH EVERYone!!)...which means that, for this issue at least, I won't have to run after all 17 writers/monkeys to get their topic selections. VERY relieving. I'm quite confident that Cindy will do a kick-ass job. Possibly better than - no let's just leave it at "a good job". :D
mmmm...chocolate almond butter nuts...
Date:Sunday, April 6th 2003
Feeling...: fresh (just took a shower :) )
Listening to:�The Beach� soundtrack
Excitement brewing over:Going back to Kensington Market in the very near future
Concerned about: summer school *sigh* what to take�
People/things that made me smile: my dad's voice, or lack thereof :D
Additional witty comments (heh heh heh): So here�s the new format�I�ll try to �jazz it up� a little when I get a chance but for now, this is it. (insert �oohs� and �ahhs� here_____). Heh heh heh�Denise, Talent Night was a success no matter what happened. Oh for shit�s sake. I don�t know how this works but somehow after dropping calculus and supposedly having all this free time on my hands, I�m STILL busy. *sigh* Gotta run but I promise, more updates soon. ;)
