Livejournal and I are going to break up. It's not a bitter farewell, but I'm just going to keep my MSN space updated instead while I'm away. Mostly, I'm a lazy bastard ( Read more... )

Ay Dios mio... it's been an insane bit of time. I just finished watching Beauty Shop with my sister. It was so good to have a breather and just revel in the glory that is Queen Latifah. Got back this morning from a whirlwind few days in North Bay with Matante. We shopped, ate delicious food, played doubles solitaire and just basked in being called ( Read more... )

So, yowza. Just found out that I have a 3 week break in Costa Rica between when my first volunteer group leaves (January 21) and when the next one arrives (February 18)... so, it would appear that I will have more free time than even originally anticipated, at least during the first session. I'm so bringing my tent and getting in some sweet camping ( Read more... )

Tomorrow is my last day of living in Halifax as an undergraduate student. I've been mentally ready for this for a really long time, but now that I'm leaving, it's a little unreal. Holly organized a surprise lil' gathering tonight of the few friends that haven't left town yet which was really lovely. Brendan got me this wonderful Birds of Costa Rica ( Read more... )

Just got in from the Bedouin Soundclash concert at the Marquee and, despite initial reservations, had an unbelievable fun time o' dancing and hooptie. Best pick-up line of the night ( Read more... )

Okay, I was really depressed that dance class got cancelled today, so I made it my mission to locate my favourite kwaito songs on the internet. And I did! I even dug out "Make It Clap" and am trying to remember the routine right now.

I just walked through the gardens, probably for the last time in awhile... They were almost empty, it was perfect. Even though everything around me was dying, it felt like it was all new again. The last two weeks in Halifax have been so ridiculously filled with autumn colours that it breaks my heart a little to see that most have the leaves have ( Read more... )

I'm so old. I went out Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Monday and I'm dying right now. I remember back in Summer 2005 when I could go out, get nicely sauced, and get up to start it all over again every single morning. Seriously. I'm going out tonight for Booth Reunion, and that's it, I'm done with this whole "being 22" business ( Read more... )

I just did my nails, thus making this process of typing probably the dumbest/most difficult thing I've done this week. But, I have beautiful feminine hands now ( Read more... )

Last night as a bit frightening. Apparently, I'm not that great in emergency situations. When the flames shot out, I pretty much just waved my hands ("Fan the flames! Fan the flames!") and yelled at Marcus. Thank God for Holly, she's definitely Chief of Emergency Procedures at 1603 Edward. But seriously though, the enormous fire that I accidently ( Read more... )
