you don't sound like an angel, but damn you're pretty close to it.

hello skype

I have finally found a use for your credit

oh what a glorious feeling it is to hear your voice

on another completely unrelated note, I have started to continue watching House:

guys are so sexy in suits.
p.s. that is also my laptop's background :)

please say something

I have never felt so worried and scared in my life.

love 101

In order to protect yourself from a broken heart, you need to do one of two things:

1. Never fall in love.
2. Never fall in love.

Pain is temporary. So is happiness.

fitness for today

Jess and I went to the gym in the morning.

Ellipticals are tiring.

Bikes are fun.

I love the fitness center so much I'm going to go tomorrow too :)

look at all these boys in uniform

Last night I had a dream that I was applying black eyeliner and a girl said "your head's bleeding". I looked in the mirror and there was blood dripping from my scalp all the way down my hair.

Yesterday I went with Jess and Peter to the first McGill Redmen football game of the year.

a little boys team from Ottawa. they scored a touchdown on the first play!

losing is such a tragedy

You don't know what you have until it's gone.

You don't realize how much someone cares about you until they stop.

3 in 1, I win.

I'm not sure if this is the feeling of hunger, anxiety, or fear.

1. Maybe I really am hungry although I ate two hours ago.
2. I need to pay bills. I do not enjoy looking at the amount of money I have to pay.
3. The future is scary because I don't know what it's going to be. I'm scared of losing people, whether it be that they leave me or time carries us apart. Can I be just a little bit like Peter Pan and say that I sort of don't want to grow up?

my elbow sticks to tables because it's just so hot

So I haven't blogged in two weeks and five days. Well I said I wouldn't be able to blog a lot in one of my previous posts. I'm so honest to you guys. :)
I have landed in the land of Montreal (okay that was about a week ago but who's counting?). And you know what else?

It is sweltering hot over here. I checked the Weather Network (that's how hot it is that I actually have to check the humidex) and it feels like 39 C right now. You could get heat stroke. You could get heat stroke and die.

A few things that I've noticed regarding university life...

1. When you walk past people you don't know they'll say "hi" just because they live in your residence. Of course, you have no choice but to say "hi" back (even though you're a bit surprised).
2. The cafeteria is expensive.
3. Your room becomes very neat because you're outside all the time so you don't have time to be messy.
4. You'll probably call your dorm your home at least once this entire year. It'll slip out.
5. You won't miss your family in the first week.
6. Independence is strangely not an overwhelming feeling.
7. You walk a lot because you live so close to campus so you don't need to take the metro.
8. You eat less. Well, I eat less. Maybe that's a good thing! :)

But I swear I don't eat as much as I used to. I go to Montreal and I eat sushi for lunch/dinner. I ask for a receipt for each purchase I make, whether it's in the cafeteria or outside, so I can jot down how much I spend. It makes me feel monetarily (holy crap that's a word but I don't even know what it means!) aware (and because I can't check how much money I have left on my meal plan which I have to use up by the end of the year because if I don't I don't get any money back unless it's flex dollars which I still have no idea where to use them).

Today was the first day of school and I had 3 classes. Well, two because one of them was large ensemble. I'm in the Sinfonietta, which is basically a new ensemble they made either last year or the previous year and it's mainly comprised of first and second years. The good thing about MGSO and Sinfonietta is that they're both conducted by the same conductor (Alexis Hauser) so I don't have class for 3 weeks. Starting Sept. 24 I'll be having rehearsal 3 times a week for 3 weeks and then a concert at the end. (Y)

I still don't feel like I'm a college student.


P.S Here are some pictures of the 1000 cranes I folded. They're in a nice, safe place and being watched over by an amazing guy. :)




P.P.S. I did end up getting a one-shouldered little black dress.
hey Curtis, you were right; I CAN make the :3 face! ...ish.
