Wow, I haven't posted in a while. Guess it's cause I just haven't cared about too much lately....
It's been one hell of a rough week, though. I had some sort of cold on Thursday and Friday and I felt like someone hit me with a bag of bricks. I felt like total crap. The weekend was better, though. Saturday I got to hang out with Crystal and Erin and we drank that night and had tons of fun. I passed out during Lilo and Stitch. Absolut Vanilla smells great, but isn't that good of a drink, people. I think I'll just stick to grasshoppers.
Sunday I spent the day with Shayla in Ottawa. It was her first time driving in Ottawa and she did great. She also had a really great portfolio interview at Ottawa U, so it was a great day. We walked around IKEA picking out things we'd love to buy for the apartment we'll be sharing.
Monday was a totally different day, altogether. I stayed home so I could go to the vet with mom for Tiger. He hurt his leg and it was swollen and he couldn't walk on it. Well, Dad went with her and they came back without Tiger. Turns out he had cancer and his leg injury speeded it up. His heart rate was twice what it should have been. He could either be put to sleep and not feel any pain or have his leg taken off and go through chemotherapy, which would've been horrible. This year has so far been crap and I'm tired of how everything is going and I wish I could just sleep until August when I go to college.
The only bright spot of my week was I got my tux rental for Prom and Carmen finally got booted from American Idol.

Today was another boring ho-hum day. I was really bored at school so I was gonna post there, but the stupid computer wouldn't work. Tonight was pretty boring, cept I was SO glad the judges finally bitched out Carmen on American Idol for not being any good. They just floored her, and I was just like "Yes!!!" I also got a kick out of watching The Osbournes again. The second season is on, so Tuesday is gonna be gold for the next couple of months.
Man I'm tired. I should really head to bed.....

Yep, today was a pretty boring day. I just sat around and didn't do too much. I think the most I got accomplished today was the No-Bake Oreo cake that I made. They're SO good *drools* I watched Amanda's DVD of Harry Potter 2 on my comp. It was cool to see the things I missed when I saw it in the theatre. Speaking of movies, I also just finished watching Charlie's Angels on CityTV. It made me remember why it's one of my favourite movies. It's just so damn fun! I remember seeing it with Sarah and Adam at the Brookdale cinemas before they demolished it. Fun times.....
I can't wait for the sequel this summer. Sequel summer is gonna kick ass! Moving out is gonna kick ass! I'm so hepped up on chocolate!

Mood: Excited

This is THE most adorable picture of Dom I've ever seen. I mean, could he look any cuter?

You gotta love a guy that has red nail polish on his thumb ;)

Take the test here!

I guess I'm a really pure person! Damn that sucks!

Today was another slow, tiring day but at least I got some stuff started on my English I.S., not like I care :P
I'm kinda sad that Kimberly Caldwell got voted off instead of that damn bitch Carmen!!!!! She's narrowly avoided the ax yet again. That girl must practice some sort of voodoo, cause her talent isn't the thing keeping her on the show, that's for sure.
Another thing that MAJORLY pissed me off tonight was that I caught the premiere of Madonna's new "American Life" video and the new (safer, less political) version TOTALLT blew! It had Madge in her Army general outfit in front of morphing flags in the background, for the whole video!!!! It was so bland. Thank god I still love the song. I mean, the clip I saw of the original video just looked so FUN! Madonna shakin' it on top of a militarised Mini Cooper in army fatigues. What's wrong with that? Maybe the grenade landing in Bush's lap was the kicker. I'm just pissed at it all. I mean, when has she ever shyed away from controversy before?

Mood: Disappointed

Music: Madonna "American Life" Hey, it's STILL a kick ass song, no matter how bores-ville the video is.

I'm in THE most boring class ever right now. I seriously hate this class (it's Computers for Problem Solving, by the way). There's SO much work to do and I don't want to do any of it. Like, I don't need to know how to make a program! And learning how to use Dreamweaver to create websites totally sucks. I guess I'm just tired of being in classes that I really don't need. I don't care if I get a barely passing mark, I don't need any of this, just Math. Ah well, at least Spare is next.
Last night was the first of the 5 final Buffy episodes, and it was SO awful!!!! Not that the episode was awful, but what happened in it WAS! A bunch of the potential Slayers were killed by this Caleb guy (who has Matrix-like stength) and he stabbed out Xander's eye with his finger, too!!!! I was so grossed out, I was in my room yelling "OH MY GOD!!!!"
I guess the show's gonna go out with a bang. Kicks flying, people dying style.

Mood: INCREDIBLY bored.

I knew it was there, but I've never decided to try it out, but now, I LOVE INTERNET RADIO! It's such a good way to discover new songs! I'm using the Much WebRadio that you can open up at muchmusic.com. What I like is the "Girl Power" Pop station. You guessed it, all chicks! Rock On!!!
I'm at home right now because I didn't get much sleep cause I was thinking about a certain thing and it made me feel sick to my stomache, so I knew I just couldn't go to school and listen to everybody talk about it. I would've puked, I know it.

Mood: Tired

It's been awhile since my last post, but nothing has really happened until today. Sunday I went shopping at Ikea with my friend Cystal to get some stuff for college. I got some really cool cutlery and a great deal on some huge Malt glasses. I had a lot of fun cause we followed around these really cute guys that we were sure was gay. I had the biggest thing for the short guy, but the other guy in the cool hat wasn't that bad either.
Then I get to school today and learn about a huge tragedy having to do with one of my teachers. It's so depressing and the saddest thing that's happened around here in a long time, so I'm just not going to talk about it. I've been talking about it all day.
Kinda blows all the fun out of a trip to Ikea, huh?

My birthday went pretty okay, yesterday. Nothing really out of the ordinary, really. Well, my worries about where I'm going to live in Ottawa this summer are alittle eased. I might be moving in with Adam and Shayla, so that would be pretty kewl. We'd be able to get a pretty kewl place if rent was split three ways.
I was really shocked last night when I watched American Idol, though. America booted off Ricky! He kicked ass! I'm amazed at how many weeks the untalented ones on that show get off just cause they're pretty. Bitches.....
No matter if I'm alone or living with friends, I can't wait to live in Ottawa. It's gonna be fucking awesome!!!

Mood: Happy

It's been nearly a week since I last posted and I feel just as crappy as I did in my last post. It's prolly the snow, but I guess I can't change any of that. I should be really happy cause it's my birthday tomorrow and I got into college and everything, but I'm just totally blah/out of it. It took me forever to wake up this morning cause I just couldn't get with it!
Saturday's party at Shayla's was fun. It was neat to get out of the house on a Saturday night and spend it with your friends. I also got birthday presents, too! Some kewl drawing stuff from Shay and the Coldplay CD from Sarah and so on.... Amanda gave me her gift the next day, the DVD of The Rules of Attraction. Defintely one of my new favourite movies. Maggie was early and she gave me her present today, too. I got a kick-ass Simpsons trivia game (I love the Simpsons!!!) and a hand blender. Those things are so useful! From mixing drinks to making scrambled eggs! Heehee, it's my first kitchen appliance for my apartment this summer.
I'm trying to be really excited about getting my own place even though I'm feeling weird. I was always waiting for the day when I got to pick out all the stuff that would go in my apartment, like plates and dinnerware and everything. I guess it's the designer in me, but I get really excited thinking about all that stuff. It'll also take me forever! I'm so picky it'll take me hours to pick out a shower curtain! IKEA here I come!

Mood: Exhausted but excited

Although I'm still really happy about going to college in the fall, the air was let out of my balloon alittle today. I'm supremely pissed at how little my OSAP estimate was when I applied today. It's covers my tuition and that's about it. It's not even enough if I wanted to live in Residence (which I don't). *laughs* Just when I thought things were going right in my life.
And hottie Dave was booted off of Survivor tonight too!!! It's definitely been a shit hole of a day. Oh well, tomorrow's Friday so as long as I can bullshit my way through why I don't have assignments done, I'm fine.
Ah well, at least I got a great version of Madonna's new "American Life."

Mood: Down

Music: "American Life" by Madonna

When I checked the mail after school, I got the big envelope from Algonquin. Which means.......I GOT IN!!!!!!! I've been accepted into the Interior Design program! *happy yell* I couldn't believe it at first and I still can't because there was so much competition for the 55 spots in the class, but I did it!!!! Like I said, that one envelope changed my life, this time for the better :)
I'm so unbelievably happy and proud of myself right now.

I'm SO nervous right now. I just know that when I get home and check the mail, the letter from Algonquin saying whether I got in or not will be there. That letter alone decides how I'll spend the next year of my life. It's kinda freaky. I'm trying to realize that I won't get in and it was a really tough try, but I'm kinda holding out hope

Mood: Scared
