spankin' new
what a great couple of days i must say. halloween was quite the blast..let me explain.
me, tiyana and steph all decide to go see the new johnny depp movie 'from hell' which was by the way, really excellent. that guy from lock stock and snatch was in it, i think his name was tom in lock stock. anyhow, it was a really excellent movie and it was only $3 at the paramount because we have a special student discount because we're special. so that was in itself really excellent. and so we are walking back home, we pass by the lofters try outs where there are 100s of people standing out in the rain in line, it was not cool.
so we are walking down queen st. and tiyana wanted some starbucks so we're on the "chum city" corner" and whos out there promoting halloween at much..none other than the new v.j. rainbow (crazy name) and george stroumboulopoulous! i was definitely excited because i always wanted to meet v.j. george since i moved here. so there are all these teeny bopper annoyances there trying to get a piece of george too. they were sooo annoying...10 girls surrounding george being annoying, and then one girl with about 5 cameras in her hand trying to take the picture, so i offer to help her to speed up the process (because i too want a picture with george) so im like "can i help you hold the cameras" and shes says, in her screechy teen voice "like, sure, oh my god, toronto people are soo nice," and then i decide i should take some photos and steph and tiyana also by now have taken a few of her many cameras to also speed up the process.. and then swifty mc swift teeny bopper is like "oh..you guys should take pictures to..oh my god..you are! you guys are sooo smart!" meanwhile im thinking "im in hell can i shoot her" FINALLY theyre done and i go to george and ask if i can take a photo, hes like "sure..hi how are you" i'm thinking how nice that george is polite after looking so exsasterated with the other girls" so that annoying girl takes the photo..in a rush i may add (the nerve of her, us helping her out and shes not even willing to take 5 seconds of her time to take a good photo) . after we thanked george and went on our merry way...to starbucks. walking out of starbucks, passing george by again, we see that the swarm of eleventeens are still there...poor george :(
then across from ea'ons :) there was this young guy with a video camera, who approaches us and goes "girls i need you".. which could be considered scary or rather disturbing. but he had an mtv sticker so it was all good! he asked if we would introduce the video 'drowning' from the backstreet boys for the top 10 show select on mtv, so we're like 'sure!' he also asked us to scream, so keep in mind, those screeching chicks on mtv, theyve most likely been asked to scream like idiots..hell, we were. so we complied because it was mtv and once again we were on our merry way.
so we got back home ready to gloat to everyone that we met george and are going to be on mtv [november 6, 3:30pm after Jackass] so it was a really awesome day.
plus my name was in the paper because the night before i was interviewed with annie when we were shopping at sam's because theyre closing down. the only crap about that is they spelled my name wrong "mentzti bryan"...losers. that's what you get from the Sun.
The last end of the day was not as great, we played volleyball and this guy who we will call 'nsync on the other team was trying soo hard to be cool and it really wasnt working out. but we beat them so its all good.
Today on the other hand, wasn't as exciting, the most excillerating part of the day was writing a report...okay fine it wasnt that lame. but i would like to send out my condolensces to steph and tiyana, because of the guy who "got away" sorry girls, it just wasnt meant to be...
also, chris thanks for finally linking me to your site, now it can be official with my first blog.

happy birthday roman pepsi. your birthday was "big time fun"
i woke up on friday and all i could think of was when i was going to have the chance to sleep again...but isnt that everyday...
first lecture of the day with 'guy smiley', we call him that because hes usually just so happy and smiling all the time. it is usually a joy to have a class with him, except lately he's been in a rut or something. last lab with guy smiley and he was nothing but. i was not appreciating that at all. but back to the story, he gave us back our midterms, i was happy with the result. but it bothers me that i know someone who seems like a bit of a slacker and he got the same grade as me, well i got like 2% higher. but it seems like i put more effort into it. it bothers me people who slack off and get away with it, but mostly because im jealous. but to an extent i sort of do that sometimes, or i try and then freak out at last minute and then try and cram. thats no good at all.
after guy smileys was a lab with our teacher who is a mix between a witch and a crackhead. i wish i was exaggerating but its so true. shes got this shrilly voice and cant teach to save her life. its a miracle she got a job here, she definitely slipped through the cracks. anyhow, so that was absolute torture, the only good part was at one point she went on about a "special opportunity"...something about designing a logo for some company. i wasn't feeling it so i surfed the net while she chatted on and i showed steph the old hillcrest h.s. webpage and showed pictures of all the people that i couldnt stand in high school. val wasn't feeling it either, ive never seen her so eager to want to leave a class...but i'm sure its because she had "better" places to be ;)
then by 1pm i was supposed to "do work" but you know, as annie would say "no deal" i ended up dancing in my room to britney spears with annie. we chatted with this guy i sort of know on msn. it was a bit of a dissapointment i have to say. with this certain 'bloke' he looks nice and all but then he didnt end up being quite as interesting as i hoped..oh well thats life isnt it...
then we went to old navy with mike where i bought socks (excitement!) . we ate dinner and then i dont quite remember what i did. oh yeah, annie conned me into going on some sort of "date" to see a supposed movie that would be..well let's just say t would be TERRIBLE. but she apologized for it so i forgave her.
next stop was the lcbo for some cheap wine with tiyana, steph and riley. "my children need wine". i dont know if it was because i had been on my feet shopping before and i was tired, or maybe i was stressed, but you know when youre just not feelings certain sarcastic jokes from other people directed at you? well i certainly wasn't feeling it at all.
we got back and i tried to tidy up for the pre-party because we were going to phoenix it up for fun and for roman's birthday.
tiyana our resident stylist hooked up some clothes for the girls to wear so we would all look "HAAT". There was the pre-party at club metzti, where chris has volunteered to be the bouncer :) and we danced to some 80s classix and some of my 'urban' list. steph took some photos, towards the end roman and tomi showed up, tomi was red faced, if you know what i mean. roman was pretty gone but when i asked him to do his 'pretend to be sober' act, it was pretty convincing.
phoenix was a good time, i think everyone enjoyed themselves, it was crazy packed and the music was so good. who can not love the 80s, 80s were big time fun.
roman had a good time
"special birthday shoutout to pepsi, i'll be thats not all he's drinking tonight!"
ginny had good time, annie had good time, steph had good time, i mean, i hope that everyone had an excellent time. even riley was mesmerized by the phoenix employed "wet dream dancers" as the dj called them. i found them to be highly overrated!
the only possible thing wrong with the night is the fact that some people can just be such assholes, it kills me that people can be rude and not care. and it wasnt anything directed at me so i cant even feel too bad about it, but i do. i dont like rude people theyre no good.
getting home, chris made some yummy tofu spaghetti that i thouroughly enjoyed and then tiyana and i put pepsi to bed because god knows tomi wouldnt do it :P
i fell asleep and then woke up and now it's today and the end.

nothing exciting here. spent the day trying to study for the nazi class. i say nazi because our teacher, never ceases to stand in front of the over head so that the light and words sprawl accross his face as he stands straight on just waiting to single you out with a question you probably dont know and even if you did you'd be too scared of him to remember what it was.
so i've been studying for that and that's about it. how not exciting at all.
||013||
yeah, so nazi's midterm was terrible. steph related it to death. at first you panic, then you face it and then you accept it. this was basically how we delt with the midterm. by the end i was just glad it was over. im sure the only one who passed was the girl we like to call "keener" cos shes sooo a keener. went to fuel station with some of the floormates. it was much more of a shithole than i expected. but chris did his rendition of 'vogue' and it was tons of fun ,and i tried to con tomi into singing 'ticket to ride' but he wimped out and so me and steph went to 'keep him company'...whatever.
i just got off the phone with annie for like an hour. how lazy are we, we can't even walk down the hall to talk, we have to talk over the phone. but it was a fun conversation. always good times with the annie. now its really late and i wish i had more to say. i shouldnt even bother going to class tomorrow morning cos its with that crackhead teacher i may have mentioned before. we'll probably just end up watching some crap movie or she will screech at us about some non relevant material. you know its been two months and we have yet to recieve a proper lecture? yet, her lectures are the longest of all...it makes no sense. whoever said that university is supposed to be super posh and without glitches and with only proffesional staff was smoking crack with my teacher. crack i tell you.
i also read up on all of my coronation street updates today. people may scoff but thats a really good show. and the csvu.net updates are soo good, its like watching the show. i depend on them since its near impossible to get to the tv at 3pm...and sunday mornings at 9am..yeah thats just not happening at all. but now im caught up till the end of the week, i wanted to cheat and read the ones ahead but they weren't on file..that made things a little frustrating.
okay im now yawning excessively so im going to bed. i have yet to go to bed before midnight since i moved here..crazy. everynight i say i will go to bed early but it never happens.
and a superthanks to heather for linking me to her site, that was nice of her. as for chris wondering why hes not first on my links on this page...sorry but you're first on my other links page..you just can't have it all. as my mum would say "tough". i really hate it when she says that. yeah, so thats all for now. hopefully something exciting will happen tomorrow.
