So, as I am sitting here watching an episode of Oprah about being happy, they are saying that the idea of pursuing happiness wont result in happiness. Thinking that what you do now will one day make you happy isn't really the right way of going about things. Making yourself happy now is the most important thing, because life is made up of the ( Read more... )

So I've been fortunate enough to have friends inviting me up to their cottages this month, which has been amazing. Earlier in August I was up at Kris's cottage for a weekend, and this week I spent two days in Long Point (Didn't get lost driving ;) ) at Kevin's cottage and 2 days in Oliphant (near Sauble Beach, Lake Huron) at Kelsey's. I've been ( Read more... )

So, as of about 15 minutes ago, I'm no longer confused or muddled on the relationship front.

Hooray for not being garbled.

Life is good, and still, there will always be things that I wish were different. I wish that I knew what my passion was, that I had a real direction to drive toward.

Well, well, well. It seems that my long run with Harry Potter has come to a close. I'm not counting the films, as they wouldn't be revealing anything new.

Wendy's very excited. Hehe.

Well, I'm coming home today! I'm sitting here at the Amsterdam Schiphol airport having paid 6 euros for a half hour of internet, but I was bored, had left over cash and was willing to spend it lol ( Read more... )

At this moment, I feel as if I'm just experiencing a whole new kind of love. I've known my whole life that I had family here in Holland, but it was never very important to me as a person or to my life in particular. I never imagined that there were people in this world prepared to love me so dearly without ever having known me before, and it is ( Read more... )

So I've been really busy the last week. I visited Shailyn and her family in London, which was completely amazing. We did so much: climbed up to the galleries in St. Paul's Cathedral, went through all the floors in Harrods, traveled on the tube a ton, saw the Gay Pride Parade and so so so much more. It was really amazing to hang out with Shay in a ( Read more... )
