I'm home! I had such an amazing time and learned so much. It's so strange, it felt like it went on forever and it also feels like I never left home. I'm a little happy to be home, and it was nice to see everyone at school and sleep in my own bed... but mostly dreading all the work I have to catch up on, including music rehearsals to make up ( Read more... )

Happy Easter. I got a big box of chocolates (that I got to pick out myself yesterday) from Henri Stubbe. Which is the best chocolate place in Ontario. Seriously, it was on CBC this morning. mmmm... My waistline isn't thanking me. I got some jelly bellies too, the apple kind (my favoooourite ( Read more... )

I volunteered at the nordic ski race yesterday. This was a big mistake. You see, it was... -21 degrees outside, and windy. The forecast said 0 and a chance of rain, but that happened today instead. Joce and I were put in charge of the finish line. As skiers came across the line we recorded the time and their bib number. Since only 2 skiers start at ( Read more... )

I really, really, really want to start running again. Really, I do. It just will never happen, ( Read more... )

Today, about a stop after I got on, this lady on the bus pushed by me, gave me a very biznatchy look and said, "You should take your knapsack off." I was wearing my Columbia jacket, carrying my chem textbook and my music folder, cause they wouldn't fit in my bag with my other three textbooks and binders... On a crowded, moving bus. I was ( Read more... )

Happy new year :o)

Not that I go for all the "new year" stuff anyways... I'm a little against the whole "let's-all-get-drunk-because-the-calendar-says-a-new-year-is-starting-and-how-better-to-begin-it-than-with-a-hangover?" mentality...
Anyways, here are my New Year's Resolutions:

1. Eat more dark chocolate.
2. Sleep more.
3. Write in a journal. ( Read more... )

Haha! I found this amusing...

"Although the name Adonne creates the urge to be self-expressive and happy, it can cause a overbearing, materialistic approach that frustrates higher humanitarian qualities if it is not combined with a balanced last name. This name, when combined with the last name, can frustrate happiness, contentment, and success, as ( Read more... )
