| So i've put off my "end of summer" entry for far too long.
It was my main goal this summer to have fun. I needed to relax and enjoy it, and I promised myself that I would make the most of it. I tried to go out lots, and hang out with friends as much as possible, as I feel I kind of missed out on that the last few years. Now, 4 months later, i'm sorry that the summer is over, but so happy that I accomplished as much as I could.
Over the last week i've been thinking about all of the fun things that made my summer so great. Some of these things everyone will remember, but there are others that only one or two people will understand, or even a few things that only I will get. So in no particular order, here are just a handful of the things that made my summer one of the greatest in recent memory.
So i'm not too busy in the near future, just working lots to keep myself occupied. I'll be going to Kingston next weekend to visit my sister. It will be nice to see her for a couple of days...i'm still getting used to her being gone. As well, i'm going to see DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE in October.... soooooo pumped for that! Other than that, life goes on as usual. Tonight's agenda includes pre-drinking at Jesse's then heading out ( to Hess possibly?) for a night of fun adventures with a sure to be random crowd of people. Should be fun times!
Time to get ready, cyaaaaaaa

| Whenever I have a problem, or need someone to listen to me, there is only one person in the world who I can go to and talk about absolutely anything. My sister always seems to know exactly what to say to make me feel better, no matter how bad things are. She has this awesome ability to put everything into perspective and give me confidence to know that everything will work itself out eventually. I always come out of a conversation with her feeling so much more clear and confident with any decisions that I have to make. We may be two completely different people in almost every way possible, but we still share a kind of bond that I will never be able to explain. I love her to death.
It wasn't until recently i've come to realize that, without her, I would be lost. | | comments: Leave a comment |
| So it has been awhile since my last entry, and it was obviously pretty intense.
I'm feeling so much better about myself and my situation. Life has moved on and i'm starting to get back to who I used to be. I think that's definitly a step in the right direction.
Summer has been awesome so far. I've had lots of fun hanging out with friends and getting a lot accomplished. Things are definitly not quite as I had planned, but I wouldn't change anything for the world.
I have some been thinking a lot about this summer and what I want to do before September comes around again. First and foremost, i'm trying to get a trip to Montreal planned for a weekend. I think it would be pretty awesome since we really haven't gone on a trip for awhile, and it would be a great place to party for a couple of days. That, and I have the hotel hook ups. Always a bonus. Whoever reads this, let me know if you're interested. I can assure you it will be fantastic. Along with that I would really love to go camping for a couple of days. Again, I can see that being tons of fun. If there are any takers on that as well, let me know, because I can try and plan that too. Some help would be nice though, jerks! I'm sure we'll come up with some more stuff to do, as we always find something to keep us occupied. These are just two of the few things I plan to accomplish by the end of August.
I've come to realize that all I really want out of this summer is fun. I know it seems lame to really be harping on this, but I have looked back and realized that a lot of things I have done over the last few years have been nothing more than mediocre. The more I think about it, the more it irks me. It's time for change in many aspects of my life.
In summary-
Me = Happy with the direction of my life.
Montreal = Had better go according to plan.
The rest of the summer = Will be memorable. Interesting at the very least.
Time for bed, hopefully I will be capable of writing something slightly more intelligent tomorrow. | | comments: Leave a comment |
| So, I pretty much hate life right now. Things were going my way, and I was happy. Everything seemed "right" for once. That was, until I got some news that literally shook me to my core.
Given my circumstances, i've been surprisingly calm, aside from one or two freakouts in the privacy of my bedroom. My reaction could have been worse.
But that's just like me- hold it in, so no one sees. Don't want to create a fuss.
To say that i'm angry would be an understatement. Inside I feel completely drained...dead even. But thats what I get for being naive.
I hope it was worth it.... because of this i've lost everything. | | |

Stoney Creek pretty much sucks as of late. | | comments: 3 comments or Leave a comment |

| The last little while hasn't been so great. Nothing in particular has happened, it's just a general feeling of "life isn't so peachy". I'm feeling restless in my current position. I truly feel like I want to be anywhere but here. The thought of just getting in my car and driving as far away as possible has seriously crossed my mind many times over the last while. I know i can't leave- not yet anyway. But i'm thinking that this summer i'm going to get out of here for awhile...I don't know where, or with what money, but I just want to go. I think the fact that my sister is planning on taking off is making me feel more restless. She's going to Europe for 21 days next summer, and then plans on going to university a week after she gets back...and if she gets what she wants, she'll be heading all the way to the University of British Columbia. It makes me feel jealous. She has nothing holding her back, just the will to get out of here. I'm obviously happy for her though.
So, last weekend was Thanksgiving... I didn't see, nor hear from anyone.. it was disappointing to say the least. I kept myself busy though- working almost 20 hours in 2 days, baking pies (ya i know, weirdo), and visiting relatives (which consisted of me sitting on a couch in the corner staring at the floor for 3 hours while cousins sat around me arguing). Fun times, indeed. The only good thing to come out of it is the nice double time and a half pay i'm going to get for working Thanksgiving Monday.
On a random note... I was looking through the important dates on my school's website and found out something nice. Since i don't have any exams this semester, my last day of school before Christmas is Dec.17. Sweet. Then I kept reading, and realized that for some reason this year, Niagara is having a Winter semester orientation week. So that means I wont' have classes again until Jan.10. I won't argue with that.
On another random school note, i've been trying to decide what the hell I am going to do with my life once i graduate in April- Scary thought. I have a few options being: a)Find a job. b)transfer to 3rd year at an undecided university and get my degree in hospitality and tourism. or c) takea new program in college. Im starting to think more and more that im going to go with choice C at the moment. I really want to take the Baking and Pastry arts course at George Brown, and start my apprenticeship hours to becoming a Pastry Chef. It's only a one year program, and outside of the baking labs, i've already taken a great majority of the courses at Niagara over the last 2 years. So i basically have a semester's worth of classes left to take to get an additional college diploma. Can't go wrong with that. It's looking pretty good right now... but it would also require me to either find my own apartment, or take the GO train every day to Toronto. I'm not sure what i'm going to do right now...I guess i have a bit more time to think about it though. And the Hotel and Restaurant Management program that i'm in now won't totally go to waste, cause I will have my Cafe/coffe bar/demetres-style place of my own one day. I'm not giving up on that dream.
WHOA... I got a little carried away with myself there. I appologize.
I think i'll end it there now for tonight...I'll be back with something more interesting in the next few days, I hope. I don't get out much so this doesn't always make for an interesting read....sorry.
Goodnight <3 | | comments: 2 comments or Leave a comment |
| Between school, work, and sleep, I really don't have much time for anything anymore. I can only fit this update in cause i'm stuck sitting in a computer lab wasting time due to a cancelled class.
SO.. whats new with me.
School is going well, i'm starting to enjoy it more now that we've finally started getting into the fun stuff. I can honestly say its 10 times better than last year too, which is a relief. Minimal homework- a bit of reading and a couple assignments, just enough to keep me busy. Can't complain.
Outside of that, my social life has been lacking quite a bit... doesn't come as a surprise though! I'm not exactly complaining, i've been in a lazy mood lately.. I love just laying around in my pj's doing nothing whenever i can.
I did see a movie last weekend though.. that was fun. Paparazzi was pretty good. Some things were pretty far-fetched, but it was still interesting. I'm not a movie critic by any means, but i'd say its worth watching.
Alright,... starting to draw a blank and i've got some work to do before class. More updates soon. | | comments: Leave a comment |
