if i ever get my flower tattoos, this will be one of the 3 kinds of flowers i'll get

i had a lovely day. in fact, the last few have been pretty nice.

thursday night i went out with some girls from work to the kings head and the toad for drinks and giggles. friday out to the bar with friends including julien and laura whom i haven't seen in months because laura was in mexico and then i was in europe. then last night i went with two friends to a house party (which i haven't been to in ages either). at the house party they had a dj that pretty much played remixes of my cd collection. we drank, danced and again, giggled like school girls.

today was the first day of my long weekend and last weekend, before school. i went to chapters and indulged in a grande light caramel frappichinno with extra caramel sauce. it was delicious on so many levels. i also picked up corduroy and nylon magazines to take with me to my next stop..st.v park! beautiful day out today. 31c with a 38c humidity index. which means its going to pour tonight, i'm hoping for some wicked storms.
i have no idea what i'm going to do tomorrow, but i better make it good!

zoom doom gloom

i went out last night with a few girls from work.

new boots were worn. drinks were had. laughs were made.
i had fun :)

i also ran into a friend of a friend and i didn't recognise him from first glance and i think i gave him a dirty look. i heard him shout, but only after i looked i realised he shouted my name and that i knew him! haha, i'm so bad with that because without my glasses if someones farther away i totally can't see their face well enough, but if i think i know them i stare at them until they come close enough that i can tell. it's happened a lot where it wasn't anyone i knew so i just hardcore stared at a random. sweet. i actually did that earlier yesterday to this guy scott who came into my work that i used to work with at the theatre, i haven't seen him in 2 or 3 years though, so that's fair enough right?

oh, did you hear about zoom airlines? they went bankrupt and cancelled all their flights. they're douches. that's what i took to and from england and that's what marcus was taking to get here :( i don't get how companies can do that, obviously bankruptcy doesn't happen over night, shouldn't they have to warn people or something? it's not fair that some people will lose the money they spent buying their ticket. that would have been about $700 (one way) for me if they'd cancelled it while i was out there. plus they left a bunch of people stranded. way to go.

a.b.c.d.i like lykke li.

Photobucket

-fact a) my dream boots look weird when worn with a skirt
-fact b) i'm wearing my leopard leggings today
-fact c) hmv said they'd hold the only copy of lykke li for me and call when it comes in. they didn't call, so i called them, and they sold it. LAME. so i bought it from music traders. take that hmm-va
-fact d) i'm always ready too early in the morning, which is why i blog so much in the am.
-fact e) i got a "hey baby" from a gangsta in a car yesterday. gross. wear clothes that fit.
-fact f) i don't like when anyone calls me baby or when someone says "aw, you're so cute" after i say something, because they're usually just saying "aw, you're so dumb"

have a great day everyone!

holy shit



blew my mind. watch all of it, it's insane. it's real, and dont with people. how the in the world would you practice this? or choreograph it?! nutso. i think this was in korea. lol i love the 50 or so blonde asian cheerleaders haha.

too many topics for one post, and no segways

i hit the stumble button then walked away from the computer to go cut up an apple. i was thinking about something, and wondering if it was funny or not (i thought it was funny, but most people don't get my humor), and when i get back to the screen, all it says in huge bold letters is "FUCK YEAH IT IS!" so, news flash, computers can read minds. and apparently, whatever i was thinking, really was funny.

during my break today, i decided to hop into shout and hush to see what they had to offer. normally i don't find anything, or i do and it's way over my budget. but today, i found the boots of my dreams for a ridiculously good price! i think i may have acted like one of those customers i dislike who act way too happy about a purchase. but whatever, they're killer boots. AND THEY HAD MY SIZE. i bought em, and am lovin them already. only funny thing is, i have to wear them with grandma socks (aka pantyhose socks) because i need something slippery to get them on caz my foot gets stuck in a weird spot otherwise...ya k so what, my feet are awkward. anyway, they're black "leather", just a bit taller than ankle boots, almond shaped toe, with buckles and straps kind of around the ankles. trust me, they look better than what i'm sure you're picturing. i like them any way.

so i couldn't find a picture of them online, but i did find these one's by the same brand which are pretty cute too, i think they'd make one side of your ankle cold though..

i bet johnny depp is a really cool guy in real life. but i could also see him being kind of cocky about not being superficial and vain, which would then kind of make him a dick. but i bet he's still cool, even if he was a dick. i actually don't even like many of his movies or his acting, i just think he's interesting.
i also think adrien brody would be a really interesting person. i finally saw the pianist and he was great in it! he's definitely one of my favorite actors (i listed my fav actors before and wrote adam brody instead of adrien brody by accident, i'm always doing that). i came across this picture of him though:

i really don't like when cool nerdy looking guys, do this and get ripped. it just makes me think of all the guys i know who are ripped, and most of them are really full of themselves and judge you if you're not toned too. but then again, one of the most muscular guys i know is a guy who always came into rogers, and he was always really nice. i think he was a regular at the movie theatre when i worked there too. so i'll assume adrien brody is a nice muscular person as well.

i finished reading the giver. it was good. i'd read it before but had completely forgot what it was about, i just remembered i'd liked it. if you've never read it before, i'd suggest you give it a read, it's short and for a jr.high reading level (i'm assuming, because it was a book assigned to read in grade 6 or 9 i don't remember) so you should get through it pretty quickly if your excuse for reading it is that you don't have time. i said read or reading a lot in this paragraph...which makes sense, but rereading it i saw that it was a lot. shoot, i just added 3 more.

when i'm thinking of something funny to do, or something that's a surprise, i'm so bad with trying to keep my idea quiet. i either have a huge grin on my face, or i start laughing so i have to give up my idea. even when i was younger and i'd play hide and seek, i'd always just giggle and give away my hiding spot.

my blog posts are all such rambles. i think i'll end this one now. after i show you this:

i saw this picture by robert hunter, it made me smile. i hope it makes you smile too.

the cups 3/4 full

i was about to complain, because i found something out today that puts a damper on things. but then i looked at the title of my last post (no samosas in the ear) and laughed. so i've decided to be optimistic. i'm not sure yet how to fix what came up, but instead of focussing on the negitive of that, i will think of some good things:

-i started reading the giver again, and i'm already really into it! (i've been getting bummed that i've picked up 4 books and haven't gotten past chapter 4 in any of them)
-i'm going for sushi and a movie with friends tomorrow (plus the movie is free!)
-school starts soon
-there's a cute dress and pair of boots and my work i would like (the boots are a tad small, but i may just force it. they're blue "leather" and come up to the knee.)
-kelsey is finally feeling better from her cold
- i found 3 pairs of cool pantyhose yesterday for wicked good prices. gotta love the bay. (pics below)
-the girls at work invited me to a party next weekend that's sure to be a great time
-tomorrow the lykke li cd is mine!
-i decided to try and wear only dresses this school year.

(fyi: it's really hard to take pictures of your own legs lol)

i'm actually in a ridiculously bad mood right now, BUT i'm tired of feeling sad/grumpy/whatever and i'm sick and tired of everyone complaining about really fixable things. so dear everyone (including me), just cheer up already. get over it and think positively.

another positive:
-my grandma just got here! i love my grandma!

no somosas in the ears

Photobucket
("restaurant" in the middle of nowhere (at the top of a mountain) in bulgaria. super misty, we thought we may end up as inspiration for the next slasher type horror film)

another dream, i hardly remember any of it, but i do remember that i was sitting in a restaurant with craig, craigs brother neil, and neils friend. i think we were ordering indian food. we were at some restaurant in the middle of nowhere and we'd been sitting for and hour and no one had taken our order, when they finally did the woman said "okay, so i'll let you know when we start making it. it's not busy enough for us to make it now, we wait until there's more people." since we were in the middle of nowhere, it wasn't likely that we'd get our food any time soon. so we decided to leave (but somehow we had gotten food and we were leaving and decided to ditch paying the bill because we had to wait so long before placing our order. for the record, i felt guilty). so then i was driving home, and i was at a red light when i looked out the window and saw a girl i went to high school with, whom i haven't seen since, named connie and she was holding a sign saying 60m/h (even though we totally drive in km/h). i was making silly faces at her through the window of my car, but she didn't see. then a whole gaggle of girls came out of a building and had a parade and blocked off the streets and i was stuck! then i woke up.

everything in the dream had a bit of yesterday in it. i think it's funny when you can pick apart your dreams and realise they're just a mashup of your day.
-craig: i saw craig yesterday
-craigs brother neil: craig was talking about neil yesterday
-indian food: vanessa and janette made samosas for dinner last night and they were really good. didn't look like the samosas i'd had before, didn't taste like them either, but they were still good.
-waiting a long time/bad waitress/empty restaurant: went to sals at 3am and had to wiat a while for our order to get taken and our food to be brought
-connie: saw pics on her fb yesterday
-sorority: saw a million previews the past few days for the movie house bunny
-m/h: i'd been thinking about england a lot yesterday, and remembered driving there. i never realized how different 60m/h and 60km/h were speed-wise.

sometimes dreams are scary. sometimes they're awesome. either way, i love them.
