happy march!

hello bloggies, 
so here we are... 
MARCH 2nd!

and you know what that means, SPRINGTIME is coming!!!!! pretty sure i just pee'd myself a little in pure excitement that i have made it through yet another disgusting winter. 

Abria 23 : Winter 0
 
lets not think about how frigidly cold it is outside, instead lets dream about the crocuses springing out of the ground, and 'grape flowers'.. (i dont know their real name, the BUTT and i just always called them grape flowers, and mother never corrected us) i just tried to google them, but "grape flower" brought up the flowering buds on grape plants, and "purple flowers" brought up purple flowers, but "springtime purple flowers" informed me that what i call 'grape flowers' are really called Muscari or Grape Hyacinths. there ya go, maybe i wasnt such a dumb kid after all.  thanks google. (here they are in white)


today has been a whirl wind of productivity. i woke my ass up, got ready and left for school. i had to run to catch the bus, but i think that was better for me because then i wasnt standing there super pissed off about the elevator stopping to pick up some slow man on floor 19. 

i had an exam today in HR planning, and i wasnt too sure if id be prepared for it, but i breezed through it. i hope it was because it was easy, and not because i failed. fingers cross. 

after being a genius, i had to go work on a proposal for another class which i finished in record time, and after much frustration got it printed and stapled in the library ready for my next class. 

i also got my VIP transit pass today. woot woot. $96. not bad. 
all in all pretty productive day, 
now all i have to do is go drop off my computron at the apple store to get it fixed and everything on my to-do list will be done!

HAPPY MARCH YA'LL!

greasy trailer park boys.

i really like it when television programers keep their daily line up the same on the weekends. 
right now id like to be enjoying my daily dose of trailer park boys on showcase, but they have some bullshit show on called "Hotel Babylon".   



i LOVE the maritimes.

and finally some advice for anyone who wants to leave their lover, 
here are 50 ways to do it. and if you choose to use any of these, [i.e. 'hop on a bus Gus'], i would like to know. [but seriously, its a very technical song, and think its beautiful, despite the message of leaving your lover]

cant help but feel a little ripped off being canadian




free grandslams for all americans. 

:( 

what about us canadians?


lookout lady.

so today while crossing the street to get to the bus stop, this asian lady driving a mini van almost ran me down. i dont want to stereotype people, but holy shit, this lady came speeding around the corner.. (and i had the right of way) held up her hand in a 'stop' kinda way, [palm out with all five fingers up] and plowed thru the intersection. its scary how some people drive.

also today i witnessed a man on a red mountain bicycle with a motor on it.. he went zipping by, blew my mind. 

im getting my hair cut today, which is what spurred this blog, wasting time at school.... im not sure what i want done, i know i dont like how it is now, and im pretty sure id like to keep it long.. so who knows how it will come out. 

wish me luck.

my apologies,

ya i know, its been 38 years since ive written a blog, and for that i am sorry. but never fear, here i am.. ready to dish the dirt.. so to say. what to talk about.... hmm. well nothing super exciting has happened in the last little bit. 

i finally unlocked the 'endless setlist 2' on rock band.. that was a pretty exciting point. alaina and my band now has a career score of something like 9.6 million points or whatever. im a rockstar.


valentines day was a good day had by all. alaina, anita, and i went to see 'hes just not that into you', and it was a cute/funny movie that if you're wondering about your boy reading skills, i suggest you go see it. after the movie alaina and i bid farewell to anita (she had to work) and went on to the royal york hotel for some hair removal.. holy shit was there ever alot of people in toronto on saturday. the line up at the royal york for valet parking was just as busy as people in line to go in the tunnel to get to NYC. crazyness. after a spa experience we headed off to st. lawerance market. we had been planning this crazy delicious dinner that we needed some fresh produce to create. we ended up with this GIGANTIC pork chop that could feed an army, some fresh baby potatoes, and the best tasting strawberries ive had in a long time. needless to say, we had the most delicious meal ever, and the day as a whole was wonderful.



also jason will be here on thursday. i cannot wait. i miss him so much, and it sucked pretty hard to not be able to spend valentines day together, although it was still fabulous with alaina. obviously. 


well i should get stop this, and study some. business law awaits.
