Actually, I'd like to say something about girls first: holy smokes, we shed a lot. After showering today and disposing of yet another ginormous wad of hair that would have gone down and plugged up the shower drain if it weren't for my drain strainer, I swept the floor of our tiny little bathroom and as usual, came up with a thin layer of dust in ( Read more... )

Okay, I guess since everyone else is getting back into the whole LJ thing at the beginning of the year, I will be a sheep and do the same. Also, I've missed blogging. My mind seems to have gotten quite sluggish over the past half year, and I'm hoping that by blogging and journaling and praying and reflecting, I'll be able to know myself and my God ( Read more... )

Today was another of those extremely depressing days. The ones where something horrible happens first thing in the morning, and it's all you can think about all day. I'd been emailing a homeowner about renting out his basement suite, and things were so promising. I told him I wanted to rent, and him to send me the forms and contract. He told me ( Read more... )

But not really, because unfortunately, the Calgary tower is nowhere close to the top of the world. It isn't even the tallest building in Calgary. But anyway, I was feeling all antisocial this weekend (after spending all of Friday home alone watching tv, and watching about 10 hrs of tv and baking uglyy cookies on Saturday) and didn't want to go out ( Read more... )

So I was randomly facebook stalking today and discovered a teensy tiny fact that sent me spinning. Just a minute little thing that has nothing at all to do with me, and really shouldn't affect me at all. But it did. It's bringing back all these frustrating feelings that I thought I was done with. I laughed it off whenever I thought I kept seeing ( Read more... )

Friday, June 22: was the block party at work - the day where everyone gets to pick a sponsored event from a big long list, and do that fun activity for the day. Paid. OoooOOOo. Eg. Hiphop dancing, French cooking, sailing, caving, golf, spa, beading. I joined my team going glass blowing, which was AMAZING! Sure, so I almost scorched myself (gosh it' ( Read more... )

Here are the rules… Each person tagged gives 7 random facts about themselves. Those tagged need to write in their blogs the 7 facts, as well as the rules of the game. You need to tag seven others and list their names on your blog. You have to leave those you plan on tagging a note in their comments so they know that they have been tagged and to ( Read more... )

And here I was, thinking that come summer, I'd be able to blog a lot more often. Time seems to have flown by so quickly though, and now it has been nearly 4 weeks since I've come home. Two weeks ago, Laura said to me,"Yeah, you haven't posted since your second day at work!" and I distinctly remember thinking, "Ohhh well, I'll do something about ( Read more... )

Yesterday was my first day at work, and I must say, it was considerably better than I'd imagined. The team I work with is SO fun and SO nice. We went out for lunch to celebrate, and my lovely supervisor treated us. Anyway, today was Day 2 and I continued the insanely boring work that I started yesterday, and did THREE AND A HALF HOURS!! of ( Read more... )

Well, I'm finally home. And I suspect this might be a long post, because I haven't posted for so long. Hmm...let's see now...the last week of school was rather hectic - filled with cramming (mainly econ, since I skipped class for half a semester and I suddenly was left with only 3 days to learn the course) and packing. After econ102, which was ( Read more... )
