Dissonance.
I went shopping again on my own in the morning. I enjoy going alone so much that whenever people suggest that we go shopping together I agree for the sake of it being more of a hangout situation and not a situation where I actually really need to buy something. I used to hate shopping by myself because I always thought I had the worst taste and ( Read more... ) -
S.N.O.W.
Today was a snow day. The last time my university closed due the snow was five years ago apparently. I didn't have to go into work today, so that was pretty awesome. I really wanted an extra day off. I don't know why I thought I could ever be productive during a snow day but if you consider acting like a total child again and bonding with my ( Read more... ) -

I had my one-on-one meeting with my co-op boss today. I was quite surprised when she went on about how glad she was that she hired me and how she thinks I'm doing an excellent job and how she trusts me entirely to take over her projects. It was the kind of praise that I've desperately wanted to hear all my life. As she was saying all these things ( Read more... ) -

One mistake that I am never going to make again is to assume that a particular person likes me. (That is unless they explicitly state that they do). It doesn't matter how many signs they show or how nice I think they're being to me. Sometimes we have these egotistical ideas that just because we notice someone that they notice us back. Sometimes we ( Read more... ) -

I call home once a week. I don't have a long distance phone plan so I only call from my laptop. It's for my dad's sake mostly; he said he likes it when I call. I end up feeling depressed after every phone call though. When I talk to my mother I always end up hurting her feelings. This morning when I called the last thing I remembered thinking was ( Read more... ) -

The true extent of my introversion has resurfaced again. Stupid little term. "Introvert". You don't know my life. Okay, maybe you do, a little. I'm really okay with being by myself but I guess some people misinterpret the things I talk about and seem to think that I am in desperate need of some sort of significant other. But it's not really up to ( Read more... ) -
Some nights
Another year has ended. It's pretty interesting, I usually reflect and think about all the things I want to change or accomplish in the new year. This time I haven't though. Maybe I'll dig through my journal entry archives and determine whether I actually had a good year or not since my memory is pretty horrible. I think I had a good year though. I ( Read more... ) -

Maybe the world of fantasy isn't as great as I imagined it to be. There's probably quite a bit of irony in that statement. The more finales of drama series I watch the more unsatisfaction I feel. I always feel like the endings could have been so much more. But I think the entire realm of fiction is still very important. It can allow you to feel so ( Read more... ) -
Christmas
Christmas has come and gone. It was the same this year as it was any other year. Everyone was bickering all day and then when everything was finally ready and all the food was prepared, we all suddenly got along and laughed together and enjoyed each other's company ( Read more... ) -

I've been home in Toronto for a few days now. I haven't been doing much besides stay at home and stream a lot of television shows. I had dinner with a couple of friends on Tuesday and that's about it. I feel so out of touch with the majority of my old friends in this city that I have to work up the courage to ask them if they want to hang out with ( Read more... )
