blah and more blah.

Okkkk so... exams are ALMOST over. So close, I can taste it. As a result of this my motivation has taken a plunge down the metaphorical tube. Well... not really, I'm actually suprised with how much I've done within the last.. 30 hours. 1 term worth of film readings (ahahaha... awesome. Why? because you never remember... so you have to do them again anyway... oh I didn't read them.. I copied the summary notes my friend Brit made) Pretty much the best deal, she does those I write out all the bold face terms in Film experience.... best deal once again because a friend on the floor had already done it and offered them up. So I pretty much didn't have to do anyhthing except study them. This actually works well, I mean on the last exam the question I did the best on (90%) was the only thing I didn't actually read.... soo.... Whatevs. I have also read 1/2 term (except one article I will read after this) worth of Media in society readings (which I actually like reading because they're interesting). I must pack at some point, although that isn't looking too hopeful considering all boxes in the town of London seem to have disappeared... Damn students. Also I have decided for sure that if I don't get into MTP (which I probs won't... because it only accepts 40 a year... and my academic cousellor lied to me about the importance of a credit.... grrrr long story) I am going to minor in visual art. I know western isn't exactly renowned for having an awesome art school (not at all....) but it'll be enjoyable, and compatable with MIT without being too redundant like film or english might be. Well thats about all... life is fairly standard other than that. Even though rez is annoying I will miss it. Never again will I live with 1252 people my age. It's never boring here. Good times had by all. OH something awesome... a new thing roommate has when she doesn't like my music... she'll say in a slightly condescending voice "What are you listeneing to?" or if she REAAAAAALLY hates it "What are you watching?" ahah. I love it. She has no love for sufjan, MSR, or the hidden cameras. Maybe as a parting gift I'll burn her an mp3 cd... ahaha. yaaaa. awesome. kay anyhow... I gotta go read some Noam Chomsky. He's so hot right now.

table... for one?

Ahhhh the table for one. Those mysterious breeds whom fine wine and dine themselves. Maybe being seated and waited on is their only human interaction. It makes me think of Dani my little sister. ahah. Take that, even though she doesn't read this. Anyhow. I've decided to make a new mythical beast called a traps-tze-tze. It will be a goat head with chicken-esqu legs and some miniature dragon wings. It can't fly, like a penguin it swims the world, using its wings because its legs are frozen in place. It'll be awesome. AND instead of weird goat horns it has elephant tusks portruding from the top of its head. thats how it catching sea food. Spearing them by swimming up. Sooo I still am in need of a hammertown job. A few possibilities are rearing their heads... but niothing fo sho. But I am coming home fo sho. And I hate mandarin. lots. its boring. and lame. Anyhow. I should go do numbers... or math... or figure out what they both are and why I need them (I don't.) peace out.

easter-ness thymes.

Ohhhh boyizzle. So, I am at home. I enjoy home, except I usually end up busier than at school, when I return to school I sometimes think well, now I get a bit of a break. True story. I don't HAVE to do work while I'm here (and rarely so...) but I always end up real busy. I like busy, I don't handle bordem well. I have to do something or know I'll be doing something later. Occassionally I will get those days where I feel like doing nothing, and unless I had something planned I will do exactly that. Makes for good times. So yesterday morning was slightly hilarious because I got up and went to the bathroom to shower and I could hear about 5 alarm clocks going off from people who forgot to shut them off. Physical plant will have fun today. breaking into rooms and figuring out their alarm clocks. hah. I made breakfast with Dani tonight. IT was beautiful. Weekends are never long enough to do everything and see everyone. Anyhow.... thats about all for now.

where the eff is my bus pass/student card.

Well now. I was going to blog about something wicked. But now that I can't find my bus pass/ student card I will blog about that. There go my life necessities. I haven't had food since... 11:30 this morning... and well working for 4 hours at an all you can eat buffet makes me preeeetty hungry. roommate has food now. just to annoy me I swear. Buttttttt on to work. Work was lame. Because they called me in for a 4 hour and 15 minute shift... and so I went in. TO BE THE MINT GIRL! Yes, this means I stood at the door and handed people mints with spoons. I also would say "thanks for coming, have a good night, see you again" to every single person, along with every other employee. Isn't that a bit much? I would be intimidated. Lame mandarin. I stood by the door and whenever it opened got chilly seeing as it was snowing. OH but don't worry my boss ever so gratefully suugested/insisted I wore the greeting komono. awesome. They also play terrible music. But you know what? Work isn't that bad. It's jsut tiring, and at least I get the monies. Well.... now I might attempt finsihing my bus pass. IF I lost it.... I will be VERY ANGRY. ahaha. just kidding. Well... not really. Maybe I'll post happy thoughts soon. In a few hours.

discoveries.

Soooo the last little while I have been finding random things out about myself. Just randomly. For instance, I have discovered the toenail on my big toe on my right foot is slanted slightly upwards. Looks completely normal, infact, I have incredible feet. Nicest part of me practically. But no. All is not well. This toeneail causes me to destory countless amounts of perfectly good shoes. Anything canvas or fabric, it's terrible. My keds and metalic silver ballet flats have a spot where there is about to be a hole, and both of them are failry new (slash and or hardly worn due to recently deceeced winter). What can I do about it? I don't know. Maybe you have a suggestion. Shoe goo? would that do anything? Another thing I have discovered is more of a theory really... I think I get bored of people easily. And when I do watch out. I can get kind of mean and distancy. I really don't mean to be or want to be. It just happens. If it happens to you just let me chill for a while. Either that or you could constantly entertain me and never annoy me. Whatever works for you. I don't see that being too difficult. Another thing... I really am never taking math AGAIN. EVER. I have discovered I am rubbish with numbers and should dtick to more creative like things. I am writing this to pass the time before I go to yoga. I am looking forward to that. woo. There is 7 more days of classes for me, and I am coming home either thursday or friday. Be excited. Let's have bizzare celebrartions. Let's pretend we don't exsist, let's pretend we're in antarctica. Maybe I'll never die I'll just keep growing younger with you. Of Montreal has it right (so does devandra...) this would be nice I think. I don't want to get too old. But then again I still am quite childish but not really in an immature way... I think. Well maybe sometimes. I would hate to lose all of my... child-ness. anyhow. I should go get ready or whatnot. Listen to of montreal (I like grolondic edit and requim for O.M.M. 2). that is all.

the iron is HOT

I will start this BLOG by explaining the title. It's the newest and greatest expression ever to come into exsistance. Highly metaphorical, metabolical, diabolical even. It can be used in almost any circumstance. I will now list some examples:
I was just going to do that- I was just about to heat that iron up
ohhhh burn- you just got IRONED!
lay the smack down/put my foot down- put the iron down
There really are endless possibilities. Feel free to think of more. Ya... I've been thinking about words a lot lately. I also have decided the word mirth does not mean what it means. No, it means revenge/vengance/wrath. If someone is ticking you off you can say...FEEL MY MIRTH. it works every time. So now I have to look for summer jobs so that I can come home in the summer. wahoo. If you see anything holler at me. I might even bathe tonight. I went to waterloo this weekend to one wilfrid laurier university for to visit some fry-ends. that was quiant. ANYHOW I will now reccommend musixxx because its how I roll, and I know you want it.
Most serene republic- original, high energy, variety, awesome. This is how I describe them. Lots of instruments and vocals. I saw them live a while ago, very dece. The lead singer has funny eyes. They're on arts and crafts label (I would love to work for a record label after school is over forever) and from Milton. If you're looking for something awesome and new to listen to give it a try. May be hard to find on limewire. ANYYYYYYYHOW... I am going to bathe now.
