Today I was out picking wildflowers. It was very windy, but it was that lovely soft warm wind even though it was very strong. It was wonderful. Then as I was kneeling down to pick some flowers, the wind up and flipped my hat right off my head and it started rolling down the side of the street. It was one of those perfect 'movie moments'. So ( Read more... )

I had such a good day today. I went to Heritage Park today in Mission (a city right next to Abbotsford to which I can take local transit). I went there to work on my story, to remember, and to reach for more closure. I met a cool chick on the bus (Hi Laurel if you're reading this) and she thought it was cool what I was doing. I kinda laugh cuz ( Read more... )

hmmm...fresh baked choc chip oatmeal cookies and milk. Anyone care to join me?

So here's a confession...in all my days in the prairies, there were a few country songs that grew on me. One in particular actually really encouraged me the other day. It's called "one way ticket" by Leanne Rimes ( Read more... )

Hey! So, entries are gonna be few and far between from now on cuz my life got filled up and lj went to the bottom. So most of my posts now are probably gonna be about poems and such, but I'll through in some fun stuff about my soap opera life when I can...just to amuse you ( Read more... )

Today I made a new friend. His name is Dan. I was visiting Carissa at work and she knows him so we visited with him too. Then he walked with me to the bus stop. (We had to take the same bus.) That made me happy cuz I hate waiting for the bus at night by myself. And a train came while we were walking there. I still love trains. I still think ( Read more... )

I went rollerblading yesterday. YAY! Excersize really does get those happy endorphins going in the brain. YAY happy dolphins flipping in my brain! ;) I felt totally better after. And I usually avoid hills cuz I'm not very good at stopping, but I was on a small neighbourhood road and I decided that if a car came, there was room to for them to ( Read more... )

I went and saw Joseph and the Technicolor Dreamcoat after work tonight. I went by myself, and that bothered me at first, but as soon as the play started, I was fine. I'm so delighted that I went. I was in the choir for this play in grade 6, and I've loved it ever since. I haven't seen it since I was 16 and my friend was in it. Sigh. I love ( Read more... )

My rommate Carissa wrote this poem for me today. It's about how I was feeling last night. I didn't know exactly what I was feeling until I read this. She amazes me sometimes with her gift to feel for other people. Literally. It's a bizarre and incredible gift. Thank you Carissa ( Read more... )

I made a random visit to Value Village today and got a 'perfect' turtle T-shirt. I love it so much. (I find a mild obsession with turtles.) I have decided, now that it is more financially possible, to make more frequent trips to Value Village and other thrift stores. (I also got some rad old school Christian music videos...Awesome! So cheesy, so ( Read more... )
