Braaaaains!

Mmm, Brains....I've been having fun this week.

And I wonder, still I wonder.

Ok, I got my exam results today and I passed both of my classes. Somehow I pulled off a 70% overall in Marketing II....(I went into the exam with a 70%), I left 2 questions blank (worth 10 marks each)and totally screwed up another worth 10 marks, ummmmm I still don't understand how I got a 70% but I'm not gonna complain. In business writing/communications I ended up with an 89% overall, (I went in with an 85%) Um rock on??? I wrote the exam in 40 minutes, we had 3 hours....I wrote what I could and then left, the way I see it, you either know what you're talking about or you don't. Taking my time isn't going to help. So I am super happy. It's a nice way to start off my vacation, positve and encouraging. Birthday tomorrow. hmmmm. What to say about that. My mom bought me a cheesecake. Enough said.

Almost 27, I'm ready!!!

I had the BEST birthday party ever. Erinne, Mayssan, Mike, Julie, Angie, Ross, Jay, Sandra & her bf Sean....Merci! Thank you for giving me the birthday party I have never had....It rocked, even that freaky guy who told me I had kick ass hair, then asked me about the dinosaurs...He was messed up, but it was still a blast! Apparently hte chinese make some kick ass lobster, I will remain biased cause of course nobody cooks lobster comme les Acadiens....Vive L'Acadie :)

In myyyyyyyyy life, I loved you all.

With lovers and friends I still can recall...

There are places I'll remember
All my life though some have changed
Some forever not for better
Some have gone and some remain
All these places have their moments
With lovers and friends I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life I've loved them all

But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new
Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more

Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more
In my life I love you more

George, HE was my favorite Beatle...

A tribute I found.

More George Harrison.

Live at Pompeii....

One more thing I lovee about the 70's is they used to do dramatic things like perform live in crazy places such as an amphitheatre in Pompeii, Italy

Ahhhhh, a classic, everyone know's Moby Dick

Obviously this would be the real reason I would love to be a drummer, so I could pull this sort of shit. I wonder what kind of drugs he was on?
OK Moby Dick wouldn't work, so I'm posting black dog instead. John Bohnam RULES!

Lookin' through a glass onion....

Ok here's another reason I would love to be a drummer, not for the complication obviousyly, but for the fun pauses.

Je me prépare pour ma fête!

I would become a drummer, just for this song.
Ahh, Pete Townsend, you are such a friggin ROCK STAR...and I just love Roger Daltrey's "marching-while-shaking-fist" moves!

All I want for Christmas is a.....

Necklace made of ears. Based on a conversation with a friend last night, this is what I must ask santa for....very psycho indeed.

So what's your wish to santa, world peace, end poverty, the Beatles to be alive and reunite??? I haven't really thought much about this post, it's quite random, so I haven't decided what my 'for real' wish to santa would be. But I think it would have something to do with an island, Haley, fields of flowers/gardens and some farm animals......

He knows how many freckle's she's got......

Hell I don't even think he knows my phone number. Shit who am I kidding, there is no HE...

I'm redeveloping the FRENCH connnection.

Today was fun, I went to the pladium in Mississauga withe Sandra, her bf Sean and a couple of her friends, played a bunch of video games and still have enough credits to go at least 2 more times.

Afterwards I went to Sandra's house and met a bunch of her friends/co-workers who all, incidentally turned out to be from France. What a bunch of great people. I told them I would redevelop a french connection and I am going to organize montly outings for all of us to museums and fun stuff in Toronto. I am totally looking forward to it. I love speaking french and I never get the chance to do it so this is prime.....especially with 'REAL' french people. It's going to be a fun winter, a couple(bf and gf) just moved here 3 months ago from france so they are in for an insane winter so I thought maybe I could soften the blow with some winter fun. I am totally exited to have met new people and to have some fun fun fun in Toronto. You know, touristy stuff I haven't done in a few years. YAY!

So that's that.

On my mind....you have not heard a single word I have said, oh my god....

Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see.

Best read if you start playing "chasing cars - Snow Patrol....NOW!!

To be honest, nobody has ever said this about me before, I'd never expect it, but I think it's pretty grand!

It's not because I HAVE to, it's because I want to.
Everytime I think about this girl I get sad, happy, excited, anxious, jelous, envious, and every other emotion possible.

I hear the Cure, I think of her, I see something funny, I think of her, I do something fun, I think of her, I do something stupid, I want to tell her.

She is my best friend ever. I think about her every day.
Almost everything I do, every single moment, reminds me of her somehow. And yes, I tell her EVERYTIME I talk to her, that she is the greatest person alive.....
Honest, you can even ask her, I really do, maybe I even over-do it...I don't care, it's sincere.

I don't quite know...
how to say...
how I feel...
those 3 words...
are said too much...
they're not enough...
(Maybe snow patrol is right?) to describe how I feel about Haley...

Although we have only spent 2 years of our lives together in the same town in New Brunswick, our friendship has carried on, between Her living in New Brunswick and Me in Kingston, Her in Savannah, Georgia and me in Ottawa, to Her in New Brunswick again, and Me, now in Toronto and Her, now in Victoria BC.
From a distance, for way over 10 years....She is the most non-judgemental, funnest, prettiest, (princess/Ninja/Pirate), understanding, sincere, wonderful, beautiful princess ever.

Let's waste time...
Chasing cars...
Around our heads...
I need your grace...(
To remind me...
To find my own....
I'm a cheese ball when it comes to Her, I can't help it, if you saw her or spoke to her, you would understand)

I can't even get through this post without missing her like a demon, and wanting to call her to tell her that she rocks...how cheesy is that?.

I told you, I melt when I think of her...
NO I'm not a lesbian for her, haha, I just love her like the sister I have always wished for, like the best friend I have always needed, like the soul mate I have always wanted....
Maybe she doesnt't know it, but I think she does, and to be honest...I KNOW if she had a blog, she would say the same thing to me, maybe more articulate, maybe in a different way, but ladies and gents, THIS IS the best I'be got...

There has NEVER been a girl that I have NOT seen after a couple years apart, who I have run to, with my arms open for a hug, while crying....shit, I'm not gonna lie, last summer, when I saw her car approaching, I started to cry...I've got a few more friends I could say tons of nice shit about, but to be honest, this century is about Haley....

All I can say is, mark my words, I will be out to BC next summer to spend the best time of my life with her.... (her birthday) and maybe I won't even come back...

For now, it's not letting me post a picture, but I will get one.....no worries.

If I lay here, if I just lay here, would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Time of your life (Til you're dead)

So recently, I came across some pictures on Erinne's facebook page, of us last year at the Matt Mays & El Torpedo video shoot! It was a total blast. Here are some I thought I would share! I have also posted the video as well so you can look for us. You totally can't see us but if you look at the hands clapping and rockin' out, look for a black wrist band, that will be me. haha Let me know if you find it :)

Come on get happy!

Despite what others might think, I am very happy these days. I have my shitty days, (like monday - exam day) and sure I bitch and complain, but usually I feel 100 times better once I have spoken out about the shit and it usually goes away. I'm a paranoid person, sometimes I need reassurance. But now, I feel a huge weight lifted off my shoulders, things in my life have FINALLY settled down. I mean why wouldn't I be happy? You want reasons?

1. I have a full-time job
2. I have 2 super fun skating jobs
3. I have a wikked best friend in Toronto (Erinne, duh)
4. I have sooooooooooo much fun with Erinne
5. I get to do some pretty cool things in Toronto
6. I have my own apartment which i love.
7. I drink a lot of herbal tea and I love it :)
8. I live at Bloor/Bathurst, fun fun fun fun fun fun fun! Enough said.
9. I have a few other friends who I see often enough (I'd like to see you more though)
10. Every other week a lady at work makes me a wikked lunch, for the entire week! Jelous? I make her lunch on her off weeks :)
11. My cats kick ass for the lord.
12. I have best friends in BC, AB, MB, and ON.
13. My mom thinks I'm pretty cool. (except she worries about me enough for the entire world. Stop it mom, I know you're reading this! I'm fine!)
14. I'm not letting myself get old.
15. Vacation coming up.
16. I have fun doing anything. I'm never bored.
17. I truly believe that the people in my life REALLY care about me.
18. I TRULY care about the people in my life.
19. I have new tattoos.
20.

I wonder...

i wonder who reads my blog, or if it's just haley checking 10 times a day looking for new contests :) prrrt to you haley, I will post a super fun one as soon as my brain starts functioning at a normal level.

All quiet on the western front!

Ya, so I haven't been posting much these days. I don't have much to say, and the things I have to say are whiny, indecisive, boring and confusing. So I'm just not gonna say them. I think I might be done with school for now. I have surpassed my expectations already so I think it's safe to say I accomplished what I set out to do (complete the entrepreneurship program) and I even took a few additional courses towards a business diploma.

I'm kinda tired though and I find this semester i did what I could to get by and that's it. I just wasn't into it, probably cause I'm tired. I don't like "just doing what I have to, to get by" it's kind of lazy. I just dont feel that I have the time, nor the energy to dedicate myself fully to this new diploma. I don't wanna be a slacker. I don't wanna do a half assed job. So I think I'm going to take a semester off. Just focus on work and skating and being the best Erin I can possibly be! Hee hee! I've got plenty of other things I could be doing. So there, another decision made by the E lady.

Perhaps it seems like I'm quitting, but I don't look at it that way. I've been in school for 2 full years now. That's messed up. I know myself and I know how I am and if I don't take this break, I know I will continue slackin' off at school, it's not going to get any better or any easier. So now, I will rest. Sort of.

I picked up an extra skating shift on wednesday nights and next week I start teaching at an outdoor rink on saturday mornings. So starting in January I will be skating wednesday, thursday, saturday and sunday, as well as working mon-fri(9-5). Not so bad now that school is out of the way.....for now.....

Moving on to phase 2...not sure what it will bring me...I'm wishing for a puppy...:)

"But just remember that it's flesh and bone"

Mission, accomplished!

There's something about these lyrics...

His embrace, a fortress
It fuels me
And places
A skeleton of trust
Right beneath us
Bone by bone
Stone by stone
If you ask yourself patiently and carefully:
Who is it ?
Who is it that never lets you down ?
Who is it that gave you back your crown ?
And the ornaments are going around
Now they're handing it over
Handing it over

He demands a closeness
We all have earned a lightness
Carry my joy on the left
Carry my pain on the right

If you ask yourself patiently and carefully:
Who is it ?
Who is it that never lets you down ?
Who is it that gave you back your crown ?
And the ornaments are going around
Now they're handing it over
Handing it over

The dark side.

I just found this picture on my cell phone and I thought it was funny. It was taken about 3 weeks ago. It looks like I'm slowly being taken over by the dark side, or I am whitnessing an alien ship landing in my apartment. I don't know. What do you think. hee hee

What could be more obvious than spelling?

Ok I have decided on the tatoo's I want, and I have decided to just spell them out on the inside of each wrist, I have thought this through and of course I will keep thinking about it until the day I get the tattoos, which probably wont be until after the new year. I chose the baka too font. And I love it.

Not in the mood.

So it's been a rather bizarre week, nothing I would like to discuss with anyone, but it's got me thinking. I don't know what I want or like anymore and I really have to figure this out soon otherwise I might end up on a path that I am not comfortable taking.

There have been so many changes in my life these past few months and I'm not quite sure if these changes have been affecting my choices or judgements. I'm up for another big change in a few weeks, I'm turning 27. Not really a lifelong landmark or anything, but it's a new age. This past week marks my 4th year of living in Toronto. As some of you know, these past 4 years have not been some of my best years to date, but in many ways they have been.

I must say that meeting Erinne has truly been one of the highlights of my life. She is, by far, one of my favorite people that I have encountered through my nomadic life. A million prrrr's go out to her. I hope she is by my side for as long as we are in this crazy city I now call home.

Back to the original topic, I have, however, seen, done and accomplished many things in Toronto that I am proud of, or have enjoyed. However, let me tell you there have been numerous challenges and struggles. I'm not going to dwell on the negative aspects of my time spent in Toronto, cause I've come to love this city and my life here. THis post isn't quite finished, but I'm sick of typing......

Friggin quit it!

I can't get rid of my cough. I've had it for over a week now and It's driving me nuts. I cough and i cough and i cough. It's a gross cough too, I sound like i have a motorcycle in my lungs or something.

Dear cough,
Go away! I don't want you anymore.
I never wanted you in the first place!
You make my throat hurt, my nose run and I dont like it!
So go pick on someone your own size or something.

Erin

A Mission - Last post of the day

Ok, I'm on a mission and I need everyone's help.
I want to get a couple tattoos in the new year.
Something that represents this:

Carry my joy, on the left,
Carry my pain on the right....

Any suggestions, where and what?
I was thinking of 2 tattoos, one somewhere on the left and one on the right.
But that's as far as I got....

I may not be Fred Flintstone, but I bet I can make your bed rock.

Where were these lines when I had my pick up line contest on my blog a couple months ago?
Sheesh.

1) Did you fart, cause you blew me away.

2) Are your parents retarded, 'cause you sure are special.

3) My Love for you is like diarrhea ... I can't hold it in.

4) Do you have a library card, 'cause I'd like to sign you out.

5) Is there a mirror in your pants? Because I can see myself in them.

6) If you and I were Squirrels, I'd store my nuts in your hole.

7) You might not be the best looking girl here, but beauty is only a light switch away.

8) Man - Fat Penguin ! Woman - WHAT? Man - I just wanted to say something that would break the ice.

9) I may not be Fred Flintstone, but I bet I can make your bed rock.

10) I can't find my puppy, can you help me find him? I think he went into this cheap motel room.

11) Your eyes are as blue as window cleaner.

12) If you're going to regret this in the morning, we can sleep until the afternoon.

13) Your face reminds me of a wrench, every time I think of it my nuts tighten up.

Desired Constellation

It's tricky when
You feel someone
Has done something
On your behalf

It's slippery when
Your sense of justice
Murmurs underneath
And is asking you:

How am I going to make it right?

With a palm full of stars
I throw them like dice
Repeatedly
I shake them like dice
And throw them on the table
Repeatedly
Repeatedly
Until the desired constellation appears
And I ask myself:

How am I going to make it right?
How am I going to make it right?
How am I going to make it right?
And you hear
How am I going to make it right?

I've been listening to this song on repeat for about 20 minutes....

I'm tired, I'm cranky and I'm craving cheese.

Not much to say these days, I'm exhausted from all this school work I've been doing, and the super late nights (staying up and working on assignments but doing more of nothing than something) But school's out for a month, just have to do a couple exams. Woo hoo. I can't believe it's December already, it freaks me out. I will be 27 in 24 days. What the hell is happening.....at least all of my friends have recently turned 27, or will be joining me in a couple of months. woo!

I WANT I WANT I WANT!

Yes, they are Star Wars tree ornaments.

Random weekend...

This is a sign on the subway doors, it means, don't rush the doors!!


This is a picture of one of my livingroom walls that was freshly painted!


This is my new hair cut!


This is Gibby sitting next to my Nunavut flag!


This is some kid all decked out in basketball gear wristbands and all, in the food court of the Dufferin mall, eating McDonald's


These are some Barbapapa's in the window of a cute shop on Queen Street West


And this is Mazzy hanging out in her new favorite box that she decided to bite to shreds!

The mirror conspiracy...

This is the name of an album by Thievery Corporation. It's one of the best cd's I own, although I lost it about 2 years ago, but I still have the case! Dang. I love this band/group, although the most recent album I have of theirs was kind of rap/hiphop whatever you want to call it. I didn't like it much. But if you want a kick ass album to do many things to, sleep, read, excercise, make out, hang out, I reccomend the Mirror Conspiracy. Here's one of the songs from the album, it's in french, however there are only about 2 french songs on the entire thing. I think it sounds sassy! All of the songs are very unique in their own way.

Don't tell me this isn't fuckin sweet!

Going back to a previous post from Bjork's Medulla album, here is a live performance of a song called "Who is it" featuring Aboriginal throat singer Tanya Tagaq. She is from a small town called Cambridge Bay in Nunavut. If you check her website you can sample a song, that she recorded with Bjork for Medulla (Ancestors)

Ok I just found info about the crazy beatboxer. His name is Rahzel, Click HERE to see a clip of him beatboxing for the album! Sorry to keep going on about this, but I just find every aspect of this album facinating.

No tissue? Do the sleeve sneeze!

Stop the Spread of Germs Health Promotion Campaign!

Toronto Public Health has launched a health promotion campaign encouraging everyone to do their part to stop the spread of germs by keeping their hands clean, covering their cough and, when they do not have a tissue, to "Do the Sleeve Sneeze."
These posters are plastered all over the subway system, inside the trains and on the walls of the subway platforms.

WHAT THE FUCK???
What does everyone think of this???

Is it natural? You've got to be kidding me!

I was approached by a young man today on the subway, he was probably a couple of years younger than I at the most. He tapped me on the arm, I thought he accidentally bumped me, then he motioned for me to take off my headphones and said to me, "Is your hair natural?" I was in shock and thought it was some sick joke, so all I could mutter was NO!!! Kind of forcefully, then he said oh, sorry, and I put my headphones back on. He totally caught me off guard. Was he serious? Was this his weird way of initiating a conversation with me? Did I, in a weird way, just sorta get hit on? Haha, I'm kidding. But seriously, my hair is fushia and purple....is it just me, or was this guy a freak?

Here mom, you asked me to take a picture of myself with my new hair, and I'm glad you still love me (even with my fushia and purple hair)

Things I have learned since moving to Toronto!

Here is a list of things I came up with off the top of my head:

1. Even if you're 9 months pregnant, don't expect a seat on the subway.
2. People swear at bus drivers A LOT (because THEY can control traffic and idiot drivers)
3. SOME bus drivers are insane drivers.
4. People Push - WAY TOO MUCH.
5. You're not the ONLY one with that idea.
6. North, South, East & West Matters!!!
7. When giving directions, be sure to include if your building is on the north/south/east/west side of the street, because you know they're going to ask anyways.
8. Some bars never close.
9. Drinking is a hobby, not a habit.
10. Blaring your car stereo pumped up with tons of base IS OK - w hen a child is sitting in the back seat.
11. People actually believe that others WANT to hear what you are listening to on your MP3 player (sarcasm)
12. There can never be too many convenience stores on one block.
13. There can never be enough Asian restaurants....EVER.
14.

Since we broke up, I'm using lipstick again!

I have to mention that the funky phone sound in this song, has been turned into a ringtone for my cell phone, it's so wicked.

Thanks Hales!

The atlantic was born today
And i'll tell you how:
The clouds above opened up
And let it out.
I was standing on the surface
Of a perforated sphere
When the water filled every hole.
And thousands upon thousands made an ocean,
Making islands where no island should go.
Oh no.
Those people were overjoyed; they took to their boats.
I thought it less like a lake and more like a moat.
The rhythm of my footsteps
Crossing flood lands to your door
Have been silenced forever more.
The distance is quite simply much too far for me to row
It seems farther than ever before
Oh no.
I need you so much closer
I need you so much closer
I need you so much closer
I need you so much closer
I need you so much closer
I need you so much closer
I need you so much closer
I need you so much closer
So come on, come on
Come on, come on
Come on, come on
Come on, come on
Transatlanticism - Death Cab for Cutie

It's the little things!

It's true, like they say, it's the little things in life that really make a difference. In relationships, at work, in business, it pretty much applies everywhere. We're always doing, or looking for that little something that can differentiate us from the crowd, or make someone feel kinda special!

For example I went out for sushi a few weeks ago with Erinne and Mayssan, when we got our bento boxes this is what our sticky rice looked like. Now I want to go back to Sushi Bon, just for their heart shaped sticky rice. And believe me, I'm not easily swayed.

Celebration of life???

Ok so tonight I went to a celebration of life party....I've never been to one before but I thought I should check it out. A new coworker's(started in feb) husband passed away recently and he requested a party rather than funeral and I must say it was wonderful. Lots to drink, eat, and fun had by all, even if you weren't close to the deceased. Mark my words, when I die, I would like the same thing, having experienced this, nobody cried (unlike funerals) and it was absolutly wonderful. A great way to 'carry on'

NOW I'm at my uncles's house in Whitby and we are going to Bass pro shop's tomorrow and I can't wait, I have never been and I'm stoked. You all know I am a fishing nut!!! eeeeeeeeeeeeek!

Good morning sunshine!

So for 2 days in a row, I have been waking up on time, at 7:00AM, making coffee, showering, doing my hair all nice, leaving my apartment around 8:00AM, and most importantly, arriving to work on time. I'm not sure if it's the new purple hair, or if it's the french vanilla cream I bought for my coffee, but whatever it is, it's working :)

As much as I hate to admit it, I have to get myself into a morning routine, I hate routines, but I think that I definitly need a morning one, oh and a school one! One that incorporates DOING homework and studying. oopsies!

Not even!

After all the hassles of deleting the old blog, I'm not even into doint this one. Maybe later. But for now, here is a picture of lobby the lobster who has been hangin out on my apartment ceilings for 7 years.

Ahhhh a new blog!

What a pain in the freakin ass!

The next day, I'm not sure I dig it.
I changed my hair, drastically. I hate blond hair, always have. I think if i get a cool hair cut I will love the new colour way more. I don't hate it, I like it. Maybe it's the comments from the 'adults' at work...."oh you changed your hair" then they walk away. I get the point.This is a pretty bad picture, but you get the point!

Take everything, fake everything.
I sit here trying to come up with a post, but I just can't. I have nothing to say. I miss my friends, all of you across the friggin country. I wish we could all be so much closer and we could have tons of fun. wooo!I did tons of work on my apartment today cause I was having the gals over tonight, and have pretty much settled in. I will be painting my livinroom next weekend and then I can put stuff up on the walls. Cool. Then, I'm done. Other than little minor details. It feels like home. Probably more so than any other place that I have lived since Gatineau, Quebec. It's my apartment, and I think that's the difference.Erinne, the cold med. addict (kidding) didn't show up tonight cause she fell asleep and didn't wake up until 11pm, but Mayssan came over and we had some beer and I made a pizza, then we went to one of our favorite hang out's the Green Room (pub) 2 blocks from my apartment. So cool. It was fun, we just had beer and chatted.I teach skating with Mayssan at an outdoor rink on saturdays in the winter...so she told me the rink should be up and running around the second week in december, so the schedule gets Even more complicated starting then.Which means I will be working full time, mon-fri, 9-5, school, mon and wed. 7-10pm, skating for Gord thurs. 6-7:15 and Sun 11:15-1:15, then teaching skating with mayssan saturdays from 9-1:30. Working 7 days a week, it's not that bad I suppose. The kids are cute that I teach so at least they have that going for them. haha!La vie es comliqué, mais je l'aime comme ça. Je pense.J'écoute, mais tous que j'entends c'est blablabla.Tu parles, mais c'est toujours tes affaires.La vie es dure, mais c'est comme ça pour tout le monde.....je pense.Je trouve, que tes affaires sont trop compliqué pour moi, je pense.I'm going to bed. Je pense.Fin.

Am I a Jedi? NOPE not yet!
Here is a video of my Darth Vader 'piggy bank' I got a couple of months ago while I was in Kingston. I think it's so sweet that I'm going to freak out and wail on my invisible guitar. Then I will prolly stick to a wall or something! Not sure yet, any suggestions?
Anyways, here it is, watch, love, learn.

Miow!
Maybe THIS is why I like Bjork so much! Prrrrrrrrrrrrt! I'll have you know that every sound you hear in this song is done with vocals, I know at some parts its obvious, but even the 'drum beats" they are all vocals. The entire album (Medulla) was created this way, no instruments, only vocals making sounds, and mixed up to create music.

Through my eyes at 8 AM
I am enjoying these photo posts. So this is what I saw at 8am today, I'd like to get a clear picture of the million people I have to push through to get to my second subway, but the picture below turned out sort of distorted, which is excactly how I am at 8am, quite distorted.
These are the things I encounter on my 2 block walk to the subway station every morning.
For those of you who don't understand why Chippy's is significant, I named a chipmunk, who used to terrorize me and my campsite, Chippy. So there is a fish and chip restaurant a block down the street from me. Cute.

This is a very small piece of the front wall of Lee's Palace, tons of wicked and not-so-wicked rock bands play here.
Funny, Kate and I were planning on getting tattoo's saying lucky 13...Cause she was supposed to visit me on friday the 13th. Turns out there's a tattoo shop down the street named Lucky 13.
Begging's not just for the homeless or dogs anymore, the pigeon's have it down!
Sometimes I actually feel like this. Distorted!
K this is me way too close up, sorry guys.

This is my hood yo!
So I took a few pictures of my neighborhood with my cell phone this weekend. Here they are!
And this is a crappy picture of my street, its actually really nice!
This is a huge discount department store one block from my street! I get lost every time I go in there!
And this is the sign for a restaurant one block down the street, I'm going to check it out when my frend Erikka comes to visit from Grimsby (Hamilton area)

Random photos from my cell phone.
So I cleaned out my cell phone yesterday, took off all the pictures I have taken over the past 5 months or so and this post is a few that I really liked.
Here is Erinne posing inside the movie theatre...we went to see Trailer park boys the movie, and this is how they had the ouside of the door set up, we took full advantage of the photo op's. I don't know what I was trying to accomplish here, but I look retarded. TPB movie night!
We even wrote I love ____. On the cardboard trailer they had set up! Fill in the blanks with your favorite character. This is Heidi from our Karaoke night at her place. She's going to kill me for posting this picture cause she's making such a weird face. I think she's about to bust out singing.

Christine and Sorel, the same Karaoke night!
Oh this is the hat from my Beer Keg Halloween Costume, Ya I'm drinking straight from the tap!I'm So hardcore!
Aw sweetish, It's squidget and Rocco cuddling on the chair at my parent's house in Kingston.
So this was my view as I was standing waiting for my subway to come one day, Hmmm am I at Erin Station, NO I'm not, Actually It's Dufferin station, but the poll was hiding the Duff.
This is a nice shot I got while out canoeing one night with Sean on vacation this summer, Notice my little rubber worm in the corner, way to ruin a nice shot Erin. Sheeeesh.

I'd hate to admit it...
Ok I admit it, I've been slackin'. The past year pretty much. At work, at school, at home, with everything pretty much. I have been doing the very least I can to get by, proof of that is my recent fear of failing my Marketing midterm (I still don't have my mark) So today, I have decided to quit the slackin' and get real. haha, sounds like a cheesy saying from the 90's 'get real man'!Earth to Erin, Earth to Erin, come down from space or the dreamland you have stuck yourself in and join the rest of us. K for one thing I will never join you, or sell my soul....now that I have that straightened out. I need to revert into the Erin who used to give a shit, and give 100%. You know, I have never stayed ANYWHERE more than 5 years in my entire life, I'm not just talking about jobs, I'm talking about staying in the same city/town for more than 5 years. Let's have a look at this:Born: Oshawa, Ontario December 24th, 1979, then moved a month later to:Borden, Ontario - 5 years, then moved to:Lahr, Germany - 2 years, then moved to:Kingston, Ontario - 5 years, then moved to:Oromocto, NB - 5 years, then moved to:Kingston, Ontario - 1 year with my parents, then moved to:Kingston, Ontario - 1 year with my Bf Geoff (ex) in our own apartment, then moved to:Ottawa, Ontario - 1 year with Kate in an apt, then moved to:Ottawa, Ontario - 1 year with my BF Jeremy (ex) in a new apt, then moved to:Gatineau, Quebec - 1 year by myself, woo hoo! then moved to:Ottawa, Ontario - 6 months with my bf Sean, then moved to:Toronto, Ontario - 2.5 years with Sean, then moved to:Toronto, Ontario - 1.5 years with Sean in another apt, then moved to:Toronto, Ontario - 1 week so far in my new apt....by myself again.....Now I won't even get into the various jobs I have had and quit, cause that would take me a year to do. But I get the urge, every couple of years to uproot myself and move on to a new apartment, new city, or new job, I have a hard time staying in the same place. It's in my blooooooooooooooooood man!

Make it go away!
So, my left nostril is sniffly, and I just sneezed, it can't be.....I NEVER get sick. EVER. I don't even get headaches. I get a cold usually about every 2 years and THAT IS IT, nothing else! The last time I had a flu or something, was in 2001 in Ottawa, my body was dripping with sweat and I didn't leave the couch for 3 days, I couldn't move, I even fainted when I went to get up. Last time I had a stomach flu I was 13 and I was babysitting. Wonderfun!I had a cold last year, and I think I might be getting one now.Dammit all to hell. WHY, WHY ME? I guess I shouldn't complain. With my track record, I'm pretty lucky!UPDATE: Thursday afternoon: So I'm not sick, must have just been a little sniffle cause it was cold outside. Yippee!

The question for Haley is:
What was the first movie that I ever saw in a movie theatre?

I'm going to flip out and stick to a wall.
Ok, so I am just heading to school now, I have to write a marketing midterm and I haven't studied OR read all of the chapters. So I am freaking out and wishing I didn't have to go write the stupid thing, at the same time wishing that I was dedicated and spent the appropriate amount of time studying. Even at 26, I will never learn!

Ok THAT was a little Hardcore!
I know, I know those last 2 posts were a little harsh. I'm not going to edit or delete them cause it's now a part of history, my life history. It will be nice to read back and see some of my thoughts and how they have changed. I want to clarify something about that last post but I can't because it will give it away and offend. Sometimes it isn't always the present struggle that causes frustration, but something deep down inside from the past. It's still in the present and will be for a long time. It hurts, to watch it happen, it hurts that it never ends, it hurts that it's a cycle, it hurts because it's self destructive, it hurts because life doesn't have to be that way, it hurts because you can control your life, it hurts because life is being wasted. It hurts because I could so easily follow suit, but I'm not gonna! I don't have it in me.

Why is shit so weird?
So it's another pre move rant. It's so weird coming home to a bunch of shit taken out of your apatment, but yet, not even a phone call to say hey, I'm moving some shit out tonight. What the hell. K can anyone tell me, did you see this coming, if I told you Sean was going to break up with me and totally take the next train outta my life, 3 months ago, would you have seen it coming??? Or shit, nevermind, it doesn't matter cause we weren't married or had a kid. Sorry my mistake. I'ts 2:40 Am, I'm not in bed, I have no intentions of going to bed but still I have to go to bed. I have to wake up at 7:30.....to the nothingness I have been living in these past few months. I only have 2 days to go til 'my new life' hmmm, perhaps it will bring something better than the past buncha years have brought me. Or yo, I have a marketing midterm on monday which I will probably fail cause I haven't read a single chapter outta 10 in the past 8 weeks of school. But I suppose that doesn't matter cause I'm not married so what the hell, I have no excuse, working 9-5 doesn't cut it these days. Even with a part time job on top of that. Fuck it all huh. Come see me when 'your shit' hit's the fan man, I've got a couple of words for that!This is the honest side of me coming out, during the day, I am a completely sane, tollerant, loving, understanding person.Update: Friday, 3:20PM, ok, so I had to take theat last part out cause it was a bit too harsh I think. And it had nothing to do with anything that is going on in my life at the moment. It was a whole other subject that I don't even want to get into right now.

The big move is comin' up!
So how do I feel about it? I'm a bit nervous! I haven't lived on my own in almost 5 years, I've done it before and I can do it again. My emotions are a bit out of wack right now, I'm not upset, but I'm pretty stressed, but only when I really think about it. I try not to think. It's easier that way. I try not to dwell, it only keeps me down. I had to realise this pretty quickly for myself, when I started falling apart about a month and a half ago. I wasn't eating, I wasn't sleeping, I was getting in shit at work. I had to deal with it and snap out of that pretty quick. I've been fine ever since. It was tough, let me tell you, but I just had to realise that I can keep feeling bad cause then things were just going to get worse. I'm glad I was able to see that though. Some people get so stuck on feeling bad, that it becomes the only way for them. I just can't be that way, I've got a whole lot of life left to live and I'm not going to waste it being miserable. I think I've dealt with this situation pretty good, I've talked a lot, but only to a few key people who I know will listen and not judge, I mean hell, at least I didn't fall apart like others' have in my situation. I have to say though, through all of this, that some people can really be insensitive. I can't count the number of times people said to me "well at least you weren't married, or at least you don't have a kid" OHH, Okay, thanks, shit I feel much better, thanks for pointing that out. I suppose an 'almost' 5 year relationship doesn't mean anything unless you are married or pop out a kid. hmmm, honestly, does that make it easier...maybe - but I would have to disagree...If you love someone, or something, imagine it being gone the next day, with no clear indication....just vanished. Poof! What would you do, don't lie!

Quick Quick like a bunny.
A song that's been on my mind, and in my ears for the past couple of months....Gleaming auction - Snow Patrol.I get tired of the hear attacks, every time it ringsI'' put myself on the waiting list, And get it all cleared upYoure the one with the attitude, dont try to make me outTo be the root of the evil in, the whole wrotten affairLie back and suffer now, we've both received our rewardBurried deep in the telegram, I'm sure i never gotWas any clue of the whereabouts, of all the things I'd lostJust because you were right before, doesnt mean youre rightTo make it up now would just be vindictive, every doubt i hadIt's nto as simple as, how much you think you careYou would never know, when to take the h intBroken glass aside, my feelings stay the sameCOvered head to toe, In blood and fear and spite.....

I.....Just wanna be.....Honest with you....
So, after having numerous conversations with friends this week, many of them have been about deceit, and I have come to the realisation that everyone lies. So how can you trust anyone knowing that we all lie? I'm not gonna lie, I've told my share of fibs, but how can you trust anyone knowing that EVERYONE lies? Moi, je pense qu'on dit les monsonges parce-qu'on es peur de nous même. Je m'excuse pour mes fautes d'autographe, mais j'esaiye de pratiqué mon fraçais. J'ai même changé ma boite vocale, a un message bilingue, parce-que j'ai besoin du pratique. Peut-être, quel-qu'un va me lessé un message en Français. Anyways, back to lies, I'm wondering why we lie, even to our best friends, family, boy/girlfriends....other than the obvious, casue we don't want them to know something terrible that we've done. But why would we do something so terrible to begin with? Why should we hide who we really are/were? I have gotten myself into so much trouble with lies, I have always come clean in the end, but I've never been a good liar, so it has always caused me more grief and pain than it was worth in the first place. What about lying to people you don't know, through someone else, I have been there too, you might not have to deal with the lie, but someone close to you has to deal with the repercussions? Is it easier, or just as hard? I, personally think that it's the guilt that you feel inside, not so much the lie itself. I don't know why I'm sitting here at 2:30 AM talking to myself about lies. Maybe I have some sort of unharboured guilt, or maybe this past 'week in hell' has made me become more aware of the lies I have been telling myself over the years. I'll never know cause I'm too busy lying to myself......

HOT MAIL BABY OWWWWW!
K so I just had a thought, I don't know where this came from, but I was thinking tonight, as I was signing into hotmail, that I remember waaaaaaaay back when I was in high school, a friend of mine, was the first person I knew who had the internet, (his name by the way was Dale) not only the internet, but he had "HOT MAIL" and you can imagine by the name, the teachers thought it was something NASTY, so they forebade it! We were in media studies class together, in New Brunswick. and I remember the day there was an announcement that "this HOT MAIL thing" was not aloud to be used during school hours. I wonder what those teachers think about their actions almost 10 yers ago....Just a thought.

Haley's a friggin winner!

Haley! YOU WIN! I knew you could do it, even in one try!
Haley knew that Hippo's like to hang out and drink pop with Ninja's. She even threw in "in the forest" just to prove she really knew her shit! Her prize, well I would show you a picture of it, but my digital camera is packed. Hmm I could always use my cell phone. Ok so here's a picture of her lovely prize. It's a beautiful 'pile o' hippo's' piggy bank, or should I say hippo bank. Congrats haley baley! You make me proud!
p.s. I have to say, I love the expressions on the hippo's faces! I would love to keep the bank for cuteness factor, but I don't think the hippo's would do well standing next to Darth Vader!
Also if you don't believe that Hippo's like to hang out and drink pop with Ninja's in the forest, read this!

You see the good in everyone!
So I was reading a friend's blog today, it was a post about people being very negative, so I figured I will follow suit and post a list of positive or happy things...because no matter how many piles of shit are thrown onto you, there's always a shovel near by to dig yourself out, even if that shovel is your two hands. haha! I just made that up! Here goes....now I'm not trying to brag here, let's not get positive happenings mixed up with bragging about 'what I got' or what is great about my life. Sheesh, I can't believe I just had to clarify....Now I'm going to set this up in a past, present, future sort of deal here:Past:- Good parents- nice friends and neighbours- skating- moving to different parts of the country and world & travelling- grandparents, uncles/aunts/cousins- celebrations- roomates- Parliament hill- the cats at parliament hill- for a while, working at sympatico- quitting sympatico- Sean- moving to Toronto- concerts- visits to New Brunswick- whale watching - mine and Haley's favorite moment ever!!!- Seeing Bjork perform on Centre IslandPresent:- A new apartment- A good job- A great skating job- Cool cats- Awesome friends- Concerts- visits with family- camping/trailor/hammock- health- strength- determination and LOTS of it!!!- school- some skillsFuture:- Better job- to be finished school- still have cool friends- goals!- a car- travelling- more visits with friends- simplicity- a puppy?- dancing- turning 27 (I'm trying hard to find something positive about this....)- next summer, the one after and the one after that....- family- weddings....ya that means you Amanda!That's all for now folks!

It's a contest #2
Yay everyone, it's another contest.
This time I have a shiny brown hello kitty purse with many zippers and pockets!
All you've gotta do is give me your best pick up line, it can be one you've used, or one someone has used on you, or just one you've heard. Ready, set, go! Here's mine. Once a guy came up to me at a bar and said, "Bouuuuuuuuuuuuuurrrrrrrrrrrrrnnnnnnnnssssss and I had no idea what he was talking about, I'm like what? he said you know the simpson episode, he then started chatting with me....later, I realised, that was his pick up line....I was like niiiiiice, a simpson's pick up line! It's not a very good story but I thought it was pretty funny at the time. Contest closes Sunday September 24th, 2006!
Here is a picture of the purse!

My little BIG bro Jay!
I would like to take this time to CONGRATULATE my little bro on getting hired full-time at Weston's in Kingston. This guy has toughed it out part-time for 4 years, which means pretty much full-time hours in the summer but then real part-time hours for the rest of the year. So with this full-time hiring, comes a HUGE pay raise, benefits, and the satisfaction of knowing that it took other guys 8 years to finally get hired full-time!
GOOD JOB RAISIN BOY!

What I do know....Karaoke is funStaying up until 2am on a work night makes it almost impossible to wake up in the morningI can't make falafels worth shitDrinking 2 litres of Diet Pepsi in one day will give you a stomach acheWeekends go by way too fastI'm not as tough as I let onMy mom loves meMy cats love meI'm not a good writerI would like to be a good writerI hate needlesI want to be a rock starI'm scaredI love the wildernessI love to loveI'm fatI don't like wine.What I don't know....Why we have accentsWhat I'm going to do with my lifeIf I want to stay in TorontoWhat 346975 X 598975 equalsWhy I'm so hungryWhere this stupid fly came fromWhy I watch so much crime tvWhy my back hurts so badWhere my bottle of black paint wentIf I am or ever was truly happyWhen I'm going to grow upWhen I'm going to get a haircut

RETRO baby, YEAH!
As most of you already know, I love all that is retro, always have, even way back in highschool. This weekend I took the GO train to Whitby (the G.T.A. commuter train) and spent the weekend with my uncle's wife Essy, while my uncle was in Nova Scotia fishing for sea bass, lucky guy! We watched movies, drank beer, and went to a small town called Port Perry to check out all the little downtown shops. They were wonderful. We visited a fairy/angel store, and a couple of minutes after walking in, the storekeeper came up to us and gave us a white feather and said, "a feather from your guardian angel" it was nice.....I kept thinking how much my mom would love this store. I have to take her there one day. Anyways many of these stores had so many nice retro "things" and I decided that when I move into my new place I am going to have a retro theme....here is a picture of my first "new retro apartment" purchase. It is a metal chalkboard. There is a bit of a glare, it says Sandwiches, Dee-Licious! I have it hung on the wall of my current kitchen for now, it fits in wonderfully! I had to test it out so of course the first thing that came to mind to write was, chicken! Sayonara lobsters, you are being shifted to the bathroom.
