Hey LJ -- doin an update to ring in the new year, although belated, but take it none the less :)
Starting with halifax, it was amazing seeing eveyrone, from grammar friends to sailing staff ! i was thoroughly exhausted when i got back to waterloo, but i couldn't have been happier. Yen was waiting for me with a big hug and a kiss :)
we celebrated our three month on saturday night, it was SO much fun -- we went out to a nice italian place, and played a competitive game of war afterwards...she's amazing though, makes my day, everyday. I'm sure i dont even know just how lucky i am to be with her.
Classes have been hectic -- my new years reso is to keep up with readings -- so i've been reading my butt off -- but its gonna be worth it ahead of time, and i could use the marks
but life is great though -- im so happy with it allCurrent Mood:  happy Current Music: Fall Out Boy

i love getting a mark back and seeing its 10% lower than what you expected, and seemingly 10% below average too (no averages were posted though) i feel ripped off, i'll guarentee it was off stupid mistakes that i always make in math. i knew that stuff too, which makes it way worse :O

very busy lately all, sorry for the lack of updates!
exams have been going pretty well so far, get another one back on friday (keeps fingers crossed). the next round is going to start soon though, crappy, i haven't had any break, especially with random accting quizes left and right.
things are goin good otherwise too ;) we're getting along really well, and she's the sweetest girl ever. she made me a carepackage when i got sick! with a mix tape! niceness
we're havin a '1 month' date on monday night, lalala
other than thaaaat, not much else to say, lisa told me ollie (my sailing instructor from when i was 10!) got engaged. niceness, he's the coolest 30 year old i know.Current Mood:  (Y) Current Music: Yen's mix CD

its been a few days since i did a substantial update, and seeing as how im currently waiting for hotdogs to boil (im an ironchef on the food network when im not in class) now seems pretty good.
my stats exam went well i think, high hopes. went to go see elizabethtown with yen. she craftily paid for my ticket, and wouldn't let me buy her popcorn or anything :P i had a great time though
one might think at this point that the night is over noooooo, i went to the mac house reunion party and saw friends from last year who i dont see a lot of this year. i wasn't drinking, but man some people were HAMMERED and dancing :O
this evening, went to dinner with half the house and some other guys from mac house last year, was slow but good cuz we were watchin some of the leaf game. i split a pitcher with sung, but the alch wasn't makin me feel too well to my stomache so i wasn't in the mood to drink and go out afterward. everyone thought it was cuz of who was gonna be there or whatever, but ugh drama! seriously its cuz i didn't wanna drink guys / girls.
instead i went to a sketchy party (didn't drink). regular house party, but not your typical university crowd... afterwards some Spoons was played at my house, and now im updating my journal.
oh one last bit -- im a loser and LOST MY CELL PHONE. damn thats gonna be expensive =\
oh does anyone know, if i have a UPS standard package i need to ship out, can i just drop it at a mail box? its prepaid etc. or do i need to take it to the purolater?
im fallin so hard and i dont want anyone to catch meCurrent Mood:  tired (exams are exhausting) Current Music: The Killers

okay so i had my stats exam today, that went well i think, but more importantly, im mentally impared.
i lost my student card, AND my cell phone in one day, and now i dont have anyone's number. i hope it doesn't mess up plans for tonight, but i have a feeling it might... =\
UGH i feel so dumb. its on vibrate so i call it and try to listen really really carefully and still come up empty handed. this sucks.Current Mood:  sad :( Current Music: Billy Talent

pretty dull day today -- went to class after chillin at the library with justin for a little while, but that wasn't all that productive. OB class was interesting but useless as always, and in psych i got a killer outline for my exam on wednesday, which is a biggie.
after class library again then to morty's for some wings. justin and i showed off our pool shark skills, and then chowed down for a good study break with jeff and sung too. after that i stayed at the library till about 9 then came home and chatted on msn all night, another biig day at the lib tomorrow -- but certain parts of it should be better than others ;)
i had a good talk with ash today -- we're cool now, but im sure we'll have a few more rocks along the way before we're 100%. to be expected i guess.
now im just playin smash bros and talkin on msn -- justin might be moving out next year!! man him and i have gotta get a place. craaazy.
thats abt it -- looking forward to tmw, i hope its productive.

time to reflect on life a little i guess. laurier's so different this year. the first month was so much going out im almost sick of it, and the last few weeks studying for midterms have felt like finals week last year. i think i like where i am right now though, studyin fairly hard, but not to the point where i freak out and die. speaking of finals, mine end on the 15th and i think im flying home on the 17th for all my halifax buddies :D vish man we're playing beer-pong whether you like it or not :P maybe a little pool too.
i'm going to really be happy once midterms are over though, relax a little bit and focus on other things. hmm i think i need another poster in my room -- one for above my shelf unit -- i'll hit up HMV next time im in the area (mels diner anyone? lol fubar works too...)
my mp3 player is so huge and ghetto i hate it. its like broken too, sometimes it freezes and one of the screws are missing so its falling apart.
man i love sundays though, im still in my PJs and its 4:00, and going to the library with justin in like 30 miuntes, which reminds me i should go shower... hmmm
i gotta stop singing in the shower tho seriously, i think people can hear me, cuz they hear me in my room when i definately think im being quiet! yiiikes. our house is cool though so im sure they really dont care, its just a little embarassing... oh well.
gonna install my webcam so i have presentable pictures of myself for msn -- mine right now makes me look like a retard honestly :@
oh and in other BIG news, im going to the DOMINICAN this xmas for SURE, my mom and dad booked it earlier this week. im really excited, should be a blast, and then i'll come back with a sexy tan ;)
I havent watched any las vegas in forever, so i thin im gonna watch a 'sode now.

so its sat night, but not one like the rest. everyone went out to fubar, but i didn't wanna go so i stayed in. at one point i was gonna go bowling, but that didn't happen.
the tests this weekend were alright i guess, with macro being better than OB i think, but i didn't study nearly as hard for OB so i guess that makes sense. The girls in the house were goin out tonight so there was a predrink party goin on here. was kinda fun but again i just wasn't feelin it. i watched some of the calgary edmonton hockey game, gotta love canadian matchups, and then watched an entire disk of friends with tanya with others coming in and out to watch an episode or two.
My next midterm is on wednesday with one on friday after that -- so i'll probably go to the library tomorrow with this sweeeeet laptop and get a headstart on those. Its sunday right, nothing else to do.
i forgot how much i enjoy staying in though, i think we go out too much, tires me out. its all about balance i guess, which means i need more extracurriculars? haha likely, hmmm. i should apply to some stuff pretty soon i think.
Housemates just strolled in drunk, and i just discovered im in an awful mood so i closed the door and don't really wanna talk to any of em... lol justin's here now. he said it was aight, some scandelous activity with kathy though is the word... i blame it on alchohol ;D
other than that, just another regular saturday night in waterloo i guess!!
i honestly have nothing to talk about, but i feel like making a really long update for people to read when they're bored. im getting SO much gossip right now its nuts...
and for some reason my room always becomes the drunk hangout. its annoying but funny at the same time...listening to some bob marley to put me to sleep even more than i already am, lol.
i kinda wanted to go bowling tonight, cuz origionally i was gonna go to caimbridge with justin and go there, which backfired, and then i was gonna go with yen but then that backfired too. TWO bowling ripoffs in one night, what are the odds :O
so i just made myself a bagel w/ cream cheese, its weird, somedays im hardly hungry at all, and others im starving ALL the time and i eat like a fat kid at the pizza hut lunch buffet, its ridiculous.
hmm i guess that's all for now -- time to dream

so yen was gonna come over and watch a movie last night, lol but we didn't set a time even though i thought we did. so we both sat around wating for eachother... we're losers :O
today i spent all day studying for macro, except when i had an accouting quiz! yiiikes. and i was studying with yen for a little but Kim was being so loud no one could focus and yen left...thanks kim :\
i think im all good for the exam tomorrow though, we'll see. gonna watch smallville tonight and then hit the books a little more...hmmmmm god i hate studying :D
thats about it... kenny sent me jack johnson (so i'll b studying to that all night)

haha im a loser and i know it
mostly this weekend i just did work. today i woke up after an 11 hour sleep (WHAT THE?) and read a chapter of econ -- that book is dry too lemmie tell u whut...
then i was on msn for a while -- cried about my computer being busted, and helped get ready for thanksgiving dinner. hung out with my brother a little bit, we played gamecube. then family arrived and i played pool with my uncle brother and dad; and cleaned house :O
airport tomorrow -- which means like 5 hours of studying. ooooh boy. and then prolly some more when i get back to school.
holy shit this haircut sometimes i think i look cool with it and othertimes im like daym i look stupid. its cuz the sides and back are SO short
whaaatever :P
back to patting my fat tummy (mmmm turkey)

so back in halifax right now -- i played poker this afternoon, but tonight im staying in and studying a little for midterms when i get back.
the day i left i went out to breakfast with yen @ mel's. was fun even though i had to wait in the rain for 40 minutes :O i didn't really mind though :) she showed me an application she was given for XLerate and the guy spelled the name of the club wrong (Xcelerate i think) and used EMOTICONS in the application. that's just craaaazy. we walked around HMV after that, and holy shit i saw like 50 episodes of ASTROBOY on sale there... hmm tempting. neither of us bought anything, but we talked music a little bit. i had a great time at breakfast though. shoulda given a hug or something -- im such a loser like that :D
last night i saw jill which was pretty great :) i got a big hug, i felt wanted for the first time in a while, felt warm (not in a gross way...)
my computer is messing up again (half my keys are re-binding themselves to new operations.) sounds confusing right? example: the 'L' key now causes my computer to instantly log out, and does not type the letter L. now rinse and repeat for 8 more keys and try going on msn without freaking out... its hard to think of enough words that only use certain letters to actually talk to someone. oh im on the family computer right now if anyone was confused.
but in short -- halifax is great, but i miss the 'loo.
im missing the old parts of it that i dont have anymore, but appreciating the new parts of it that im just discovering. life in second year is totally different than first year, and sometimes its great, and othertimes its not, thanks guys for seeing me through em all.
economics is really thick and boring right now -- im tempted to just read the lecture notes because the text is even worse -- but i need to just bare down and get'er done. the WLU library is calling my name all the way from halifax.

so school's been complicated and stuff so i haven't been updating for a while, but i think i'll start updating again cuz quite frankly, what do i have better to do?
the house is still great -- having a good time -- tonight i went to go play pool with the business club, yen invited me, which was great because i should join clubs anyway. was a fun night but i had to
so basically i do 0 work and go out to too many clubs :O but its all in fun, i'll study when i have midterms comin (ie next week...)
anyway its late, but i figured i'd post to let everyone know that im gonna start to update again. and its like 4 am, why am i awake...

First day of having an entire week off, but my computer is in the shop (SOME OF THE KEYS DONT WORK WTF) so i've been on the family comp all day, which means no WoW. i watched some poker today, but other than that, i didn't do a lot. i went up to the doctors to get some perscriptions -- mm drugs. matty and i were gonna hang out this aft, but he dissapeared so bleh doesn't matter.
last night we chilled at vicky's pool and totally forgot about the hottub (damn!) it was liz's last night so we all said bye etc.
tonight im goin out with the sailing staff -- should be fairly fun i guess, we'll see, i dont really feel like boozin.
daytime TV is horrific.

hey all, just checkin in!
had a great few couple days; last night was the awards banquet and we went downtown afterwards, and i saw a LOT of sailors and people i knew. was a wicked good time! argyle gets better all the time.
today was last day of work, and i know i'm gonna miss lisa, but its good to have it finally over. and Andrew got drunk today at work (not me, i don't talk in first person) which was ridiculous! he was drinking ALL day. Today was complete SHINANIGANS, but suprisingly it was under-control and i think my kids had SO much fun, so yeah great day. Other than Ben flipping on me and lisa for going to subway for lunch...
in the evening rich lisa and i went out in his yacht (thanks again richard) and i had a great time, and now im goin downtown for a few drinks with vay and jill(i think?) i dunno, lol vicky is the only one who called me -- but im presuming others. should be a fun time -- i'm spending too much money downtown as of late :D
can't wait for laurier, but im upset the summer has come to an end.

just updating on the weekend.
friday night i went to the great wall with the girls, and sat night we all went downtown.

all of my friends crapped out on me at once
jill, vay and conter are super pissed, which i guess i deserve, but i think they're over-reacting. have i EVER done that before? i understand if its a pet peave -- but thats not like an excuse to make it ok to hold a super grudge. either way, im mad at myself just as much as them.
ashley has moved on pretty damned fast and i feel like i was an easily replaceable guy. the only reason she's not like even closer with him is because of my feelings, so like if it wasn't for me, they'd be like a couple. :O
matt seemed pissed after poker, cuz i hit some pretty lucky hands that i didn't deserve to win. i didn't even say bye to him cuz he was on the phone.
considering i won poker, this has been a fuckin ridiculously terrible day.
maybe i should just stay at home everyday for the next few weeks till i leave. that way i won't hurt anyone else's feelings. GREAT summer

omg i just wrote a whole entry and then accidently erased the whole thing. blah
sailing is getting better this session, the kids were much better today than i expected :) and lisa and i are definately the coolest instructors, so its win-win for both coach and kid.
last night was fun -- watched a movie then went to jenna's and just hung out.
my life is boring. waiting for school to start. going to be a little awkward at first im afraid though ... i hope not, but how won't it be.
