IT'S SNOWING!!!! Seeing as I failed to get drunk last night (down to a lack of consideration from a certain St.-Jean-Baptiste-loving roomie of mine), I spent an hour and a half walking around campus and just soaking it all in. I took some pics just now:

I live with disgusting slobs. We had our unit inspected today, and unsurprisingly we were assessed for cleaning costs. Why am I not surprised? Because my flatmates don't clean. This place (read bathroom and kitchen) only gets cleaned when I can no longer tolerate the squalor. What did surprise me though was the reaction that I got from one of my ( Read more... )

My mother can at times be infuriatingly absent-minded. A letter arrived at my house in Nelson a MONTH AGO, and it was from the donor of a scholarship that I had won. In the letter, the donor had requested something of me, meaning that she wanted a reply from me (I know this because my mom opened the letter, which surprisingly, doesn't bother me all ( Read more... )

I feel like shit. I hate feeling like shit. Especially at this time of year. Why won't my body and brain do what they're told?! Its not as if I'm asking much, just no sickness during midterms/papers and an ability to remember what I actually know when I'm writing tests. That is all.

I just checked my email, and I received this great drunken email from my cousin. Who is 36. It made my day.

"Hi Giovanni!!!!  how are you ?? Just wondering how you are doing down there??  I just want you to know that I think you are a great person!!!!!!!   I just got back from a hair show in Calagry this weekend.  I just turned 36   YA   I KNOW  I ( Read more... )

I am currently purchasing an item of clothing knowing full well that it won't fit. Meh. Its preeety and I want it.

Dear Cow at the UBC Bookstore:

Thank you very much for coming down from your ivory tower of seasonal cashierdom to fulfill my simple request. I really wanted to return that copy of the Communist Manifesto and have it credited to my mom's amex, and the fact that you only protested for 3 minutes AND tried to lie about me not being able to do that with ( Read more... )

I really try to update this journal frequently, but since there isn't much going on in my life, it never seems to happen. But enough stuff has happened that I can now finally update....

Two Weeks Ago: my cousin Donna's wedding. Such an awesome event. I am close to both the bride and groom and that made it all the better. Although the guest list was ( Read more... )

....lest the lack of updates leads someone to believe that I've mysteriously vanished. The reason for the lack of updates is the lack of shit going on in my life. However in the last monthish (I think) since my last update of compiled various "things". First: Sears is the Devil.

I have a wedding at the end of this week that I will be attending in ( Read more... )

I can't go anywhere without running into someone I can't stand. Under the rubric of people I can't stand are annoying old wops and people from high school. Social norms require me to acknowledge their presence and exchange small talk. Its a good thing that I can be artificial enough to exchange empty pleasantries with these cretini or else I'd be ( Read more... )
