So Cold

Its halloween. Everywhere around campus are amazing costumes that make me laugh. Props to Kris P and his Captain Alaska thing. Brilliant. Lowry came into class as The Flash, and we all fell off our chairs laughing.

Not much going on today, except it's goddamn freezing outside.

So whats with people who wear poppies like two weeks before remembrance day? These people are SO good. It's like, I have respect, but you beat me to it. I can't compete with that. That's just me being a cynic, and I think I do that too much.

After today my week gets ridiculously easy. I have no plans for the next like 4 days though, so I dunno. One thing is for sure, I woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning.

' I dream myself a thousand times around the world, But I can't get out of this place'

9 Times A Day

Sitting in the library looking to get some work done, so I figured I blog first and then get down to it. We got cable today at home, and apparently we got a pretty good deal on it, which is rad. Not really a huge t.v. fan, except for sports highlights and canucks games.

So later today in class some people are presenting this thing on blind sports, which may sound weird but it is within the realm of the class. Apparently we're gonna try this really cool game called 'goalball'. check it out (http://youtube.com/watch?v=lzpSvKvodak).

Anyways, just wanted to say that long days in the library suck, and so do 3 hour night classes.

Now The World

yo

So here's my first go around at a blog. Basically this blog will report on the life and times of my last year of undergrad studies. I'm a pretty busy guy so there'll always be lots to write about.

I love to write, so I plan on updating this thing every day, even if its just a word or two. I love music, and you might find hints of music related stuff everywhere in this blog. I believe in easter eggs, so happy hunting around here for them!

Anyway, thanks for visiting, and leave me a comment if you want to test me in anything you read about, or just to say hi...

'Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day'

Another Sunday

I had a really good weekend, although I felt a little guilty for not doing enough homework. It was my first free weekend in a few months now that soccer is done, and I took full advantage and basically chilled for 3 days.

Boston took the World Series last night. Good for them. I was really hoping Jeff Francis could get a ring, but Boston is TOO good. Maybe one of the best teams ever. Who can get enough of Manny being Manny?

I played a bunch of poker yesterday, and just didn't see any decent results. Sundays are pretty exciting on Stars, theres always tons going on, so I kept pretty busy most of the day.

So whats up with Halloween? I turned down a couple parties to chill instead, and watch the ball game. I went hard enough on thursday night, probably the hardest I've gone all year. So that works for me. I don't really like Halloween anyways.

'On any other day, It's all rest and flowers'

Life and love and why

Lets start this thing right. With a funny story. I was on the cusp of losing my virginity. I won't say how old I was, it was tough enough for me then. I don't need more flack about it now. Anyway, I was lucky enough to see it coming, so I was able to try and script things a little bit. Here's what happened.

Me and this girl had been seeing each other for a little while, and it was really evident that this particular Saturday was going to be 'The Day'. Or 'The Night' so to speak. So I reso'd dinner at some fancy restaurant in another city, and we made the trek to start the evening off right. And it DID start off strong. Dinner was good, and I think I must have been confident in some ignorant way. After dinner, to be semi-funny, I ask "what now?" She knew and I knew, so we left the restaurant to head home. Anyway, I had locked my keys in the car.

I had no cell of course, and I also had such limited funds that I wouldn't be able to pay the tow truck driver. Brilliant. I had a spare set of keys at home, but that was a half hour drive away. 20 minutes later we had a friend of mine drive the keys up to where we were. Of course, this guy (the friend) didn't know the status of the two of us, or the direction of our evening. And he wanted to hang out. Do I snub the guy who drove out of his way for me? Of course not.

It was starting to pile up a little bit for me. I was more than a little flustered by the whole night, not to mention the added pressure of the first time you have sex. Every time I looked over at whatsername, she just giggled away, enjoying my agony immensely. We finally made it home, and it HAD taken forever, like i had predicted earlier in the day. But we were finally alone, and the house was empty.

I guess the humour lies within the irony that that night was.

But I made it. And it was brutal.
