Moving...

Whoa....It's been a strange little while here in O-town. I'm pretty much exhausted all the time due to working every night, giving people food and attending to their food needs. Ugh. I smell like food all the time now. I'm sure its suits some people, but what can I say, it's just not my thing? Today I watched some crazy and fucked up dudes kill some random innocent people at a college in downtown Montreal. Yup. Kinda got me really worried about moving there, but then again, this shit happens everywhere these days. I can almost clearly see the day it becomes super uncool to have not had a shooting in your school! Ugh. Jeebus. It used to just be stupid Americans, now its the stupid French Canadians, and that's not even easy to say. Say it-Stupid French Canadians! Ha.
I'm also experiencing pangs of not wanting to leave Ottawa-they are random pangs, small in nature, non-threatning of course, but they exist, and I've acknowledged them. It's just cos I've met some rad people here, yes you know who you are, and well, it's just a shame to not have the opportunity to explore my friendships...Oh well I guess huh? Maybe I can do that on weekends, come back and hang out with people? :( I'd like to say thank you to Kelly for being my only friend here when I arrived and helping me meet new people and for playing Cupid and finding bobby for me:) teee. And for just being a very radical lady and one who makes supper for her friends and lets them take up home on her futon. I also want to thank my new friend Alex for showing me the wonderful world of caturdays, vans, dreads, band dudes, babylon, Arnie impersonations, and for pretty much being my Ottawa tour guide. Also, he gives rad hugs, if his dreads don't get to you first! In other news, my sister and mark, her husband, the Newlyweds, just moved here and into our home 4 days ago. They, I think, will like it here a lot. But can you imagine the level of insanity at this house? Pffffff I bet you can't! Geeeeeeeeeeezus. Soon, I shall be free of it all! Muahhahaahhaha. Erm....
So here's what's going to happen:
Friday night I work my last shift at the Rose's Cafe. I better get rad tips! Saturday the 16th, I get driven down by my parents to Montreal with not a whole lot of stuff cos I don't need everything right now and well, there's no room for it all.
I am moving in with my boyfriend Bobby. Bobby and I don't know each other very well...But this is obviously a very good opportunity to get to explore that aspect. He's a rad dude and I'm excited about all this change I guess? Excited and scared. Yup. Obviously. Geeeeeez. And then I get one day off in between-RADNESS! And on Monday the 18th, ALSO MY BIRTHDAY, I begin my new job at the copy/print store. Yah. That's pretty much how it is going to go down. Hopefully it works well. I don't really wanna move anymore. Too much moving. I just want to settle...Maybe meet people I can be friends with for more than 4 months! Fuck.
So, till I write again, I bid you all Adieu.
Good night and Sweet dreams,
Come visit me as soon as it is humanly possible.
Mmmmmmmmwah!

Sk8ing???

I've been teaching myself how to skate. Yes, I said stake. I'm not bad, I can pretty much ride the board okay-ish.....so I decided, seeing as the best way to learn is practice, to skate to the bus stop, which is a 10 min walk normally, and then from the bus stop by work, to work. It went ok, both ways....I mean sure, I looked retarded, cant turn and stuff and cant go over cracks very well, but at least I was doing it!
In any case, I got off work at 10:45pm and then was skating and I fell 3 times on my way to the bus stop, AND at the bus stop trying to pivot-ughhhhhhhhhh! Whatever, I don't care about what they think! BUT I managed to get my first real skate injury-yup! Blood et all! There shall be a thigh bruise tomorrow morning too! woooooooo
yup! So working at the restaurant isn't so bad really....I made $40 in tips though! yay for CASH DOLLARZ.
I go to Montreal on the 30th! yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

That's about it!
Tomorrow, a day off! Could it be!?!?! Lunch, show and dancing! goot times indeed.

chow!

Dreams of Montreal

It's been a while, and I've come to the conclusion that Ottawa just ain't my cup of tea. Really. I think it's like Victoria, where people go to retire or live very boring lives....or maybe that's cos I'm being very pessimistic. Either way, I'm trying very hard to relocate to Montreal. I just absolutely love it there, just came back from a 2 day spur of the moment sort of trip. It's just got the greatest charm-even pizza tastes better there.
I've also recently found someone rather rad to hang out with in Montreal. tee hee. Let's see what comes of it. I'm just looking forward to leaving here and getting my shit back together again. Happy thoughts. If you haven't been to Montreal, you should go! I guarantee you'll find something to enjoy out there. Really. I like that drunk people there take up graffiting sidewalks with chalk. ha. I like that there are parks one has t walk through to get to most places. I like that people look good there. I like that you can eat greasy poutine there, and think you'll puke, but somehow don't. Yup. Tubular.

Otters + Ottawa = Otterwa?


So I'm here. Finally. I was thrown into working at the Bluesfest for my dad, serving people butter chicken and samosas, then coming home smelling like the food I'd served all day. Ugh. It was okay though, I mean it's money and the festival is finally over so yay!

I got to hang out with Kelly (finally!) and Greg had come up from Waterloo last night as well. We went to a Vegan BBQ and it was like a Tattoo Convention out there! Ha. In any case, I'm pretty sure I drank too much wine. But there were cute puppies around, and I really didn't care. So Ha! I also managed to get 2 numbers?? Weird cos I'm normally not the number getting kind...ha! EEEP?

I'm thinking of getting my tattoos on my feet soon too....maybe before August, before my sisters wedding....maybe. Also, I'm thinking of getting a kitty...maybe not until September but the thought is strong. Soon, I shall have my kitty and name it Lumpy Theodore Churchill I!!!! wooooooooo

In other news, I'm thinking of going to watch Season 1 of Arrested Development in a few minutes but can't decided between that or Season 1 of Futurama....hmmmmmm......
Tough decisions need to be made in order to maintain balance.
AD it is!

Miss you all.
Mwah!

ANKLE PAIN!

So I hurt my ankle.
A sprain they call it.
I have just taken pictures of some day 2 swelling-really doesn't compare to day 1 Golf ball swelling, but it'll do. I guess.
I'm trying to walk though, gets a bit better with every step, though still very painful. Silly silly me.

new hair





i coloured my hair darker again, and mum cut my bangs...so this warrants new pictures.
I also bought this rad comic book in Montreal-rad as in super lame but so bad that not buying it would have almost been a mortal sin!
It's called SHI: The Way of The Warrior!
woooooooooooooooooooo
yup.
yuuuuuuuuuuup.
