How Time Flies

Just another amazing thing that just makes me thing, where has the time flown, listening to the radio and Born Slippery - Underworld came on, can you beleive that it was 8 years ago! I loved Trainspotting, I can remember renting it in High School with my friend Katie, it looked werid but we thought we would see what it was like, and I think that was the turing point for me loving strange movies. But still EIGHT years ago, yikes.

Last night, got back into the study groove, oh more so warmed up my butt groove in the library and computer lab. Thats right worked a whole 5 hours, yes yes, pat on the back, now I am only about 1/2 behind every thing!

Yesterday was No Car day or somthing like that, so a section of St Cats was tied off, and there was basically a big street party going on, street performers, people walking arround it was great, got some free stuff, very nice indeed.

time to get the day started

Exciting Chocolate News

Ohh I want one of these

I could go for one of these, we used to leave Moosehead for Santa cuz a Moose was close enough to a reindeer, and it figures that most of it turns up near Woodstock, *shakes head* and a month after this was stolen, I recall hearing that a trailer of detained beef was stolen from Centreville ahh life in the sticks with the hicks lol

How exciting

Yup, here I am, wanted to get up early this morning, to get some much needed studying in, so I could go to church, however as is always my good luck, last night ohh arround 1:30, (mind you I went to bed at 11 30) a whole gaggle of, I think drunk, French guys come running arround my floor, running up and down the stairs.

Oh you gotta love those drunken antics some people have *sigh* lol

Anyway enough of my complaining, yea yea I know I live in rez, it could be worse, so I got up a bit late today arround 8, and since it takes about an hour for me to wake up proper, am now just functioning, getting my spelling down (Hephaestus, pretty good), and I am listening to the radio online, when the new Robbie Williams song came on, its called Radio, I actually really like it, very different from the rest of his stuff, there is most def, an 80's influence, you can check it out here if you want, go to the Music section, and then its on the Greatest Hits album, which is coming out October 18th (hopefully here too....hope my brothers are reading this...mmm great Xmas present there boys ;) )

Ok well that is all for now
Over and out

And they're off...

Yup, its about to occur, you couldn't really avoid it, they are there lurking in the back of your mind, as is the thought, I should be studying just a bit more, that's right mid terms. I just can't beleive that I am having my first on this Monday.

Moving on today was the Food Science BBQ, was very good, stayed for about 2 hours talking, a first.

I have come up with a new game to play while downtown (and really in any city) you must be in a large grassy area (paved it ok, if its all there is) and you require 2 goals, 2 teams, the rules from soccer, but not a soccer ball, but PIGEONS, that's right how much fun would it be kicking those dam pests arround! How did I come up with this? Well while I was sitting on the lawn at school on the main campus of McGill I should say, minding my own business, I reach down to pick up my cup of tea, and there is a bloody Pigeon right next to me, I just wanted to kick it out of the way and volia a new game.

And for all of you animal lovers out there, come on there are millions of them in the city, ok ok how about you can't have spikes on your cleats?

Tired, Hungry, and really whats the point?

Seriously, is there a point, I think it's time, I really sit back and look at where things are headed, I don't think I really like it, I feel like I am behind the wheel but the breaks are going, and I am out of control.

Back to School

Well then, it's that time of year again, that's right back to school, for many people, or for those of us "fortunate" McGill students we have been back since the first.
I have mostly classes downtown this year, which will be interesting, I think I am going to like it, mind you I have to make the comute everyday, thankfully just for one semester, and then I have my research project, don't know what it is yet.Only time will tell.
Back in the same room in LH so those of you who want to stop by for a visit, the kettle is always on (my don't i sound very maritime -er -ie, wait I am)

As for the big C here on Thursday night, well it was DEAD, we were thinking that it being the first it would be packed, went with A and we ended up watching telly, I think it was the family guy and then classic spiderman, I mean who doesn't like spiderman??

Moving on, for my faithful readers I shall try and be better with my updates, it just seemed hard to do this summer, just couldn't be bothered!

ta for now

Kill Bill Volume 1

Ok so I just saw this movie, finally I might add, but now I just found out that there wont be a long wait for the second half of the movie, as it will be out on Tuesday!
I enjoyed the movie, but at some point, oh I dont know when all the limbs are flying arround you have to ask yourself, what is going on in QT's head? He is all over the place, and having just watched the 7th samuri, it was well interesting, especially the musical selection.

Other than that nothing else is new....nothing to update or report, saw the Village, and will not go into the woods alone but I am very proud of myself, and with out giving anything away, caught on way before we find out anything, if you are freakish like me you can pick out what I mean in like the first 10 min of the movie and that is all I am saying

Anyone else seen a good summer movie? This summer there just dont seem to be as many, well at least here in the sticks of NB

Site Meter and Cry, more so not crying

Ok so this site meter is starting to bother me, just becuase I am nosey and I want to know who is looking at my site, lol I figure it's mostly me checking to see what number the dam thing is at only to have it go up another 2.
 
Went to see the Notebook tonight in Woodstock. It was filled, with lots of white haired old ladies and twenty somthings and there in between, there were only 5 men, yes we counted, to pass the time, and I had been told, bring klenex, and me Miss Crying Queen for everything, didn't shed a tear, I didn't even get misty eyed. I knew I should be goodness everyone arround me was, and I really liked the movie, Ryan Gossling was great, a different role from Sean and Breaker High and the Young Hurc on Fox, but still, to which when I told someone that I didn't cry, that oh well you must just be dead inside like Chandler from friends.
 
Which made me think, why is it that we all have to cry or laugh or what ever at a movie, I mean there are soo many out there, so many different types, it isn't wrong to like different ones, I mean how boring would that be?

New Look, Fresh Start?

Thought that the ole blue and white scale backround needed an update, and since there isn't much I can do to change things around here, might as well change things here, bare with me this is still a work in progress, next step is getting pictures up....might take a bit of time

Readings

I have just had a thought to add a little section here of current books that I am reading or have read.
I just finished Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West
by Gregory Maguire. I really enjoyed it as I have his other books, you get to look at the other side of the story of some of the most belved books out there.

I am also about to read Ana Karenina by Leo Tolstoy we will see how that goes. I don;t get too much time to read over the summer due to work and "family" things that I have to go to, but I shall keep this updated as much as possible

Coffee and Me

I have a new friend and I don't want to think of what life would be with out it. My cupa Java, try as I may to ignore it last year at school, it has snuck back into my life, now that my brother and I have our cup in the am, but he is now away at camp so it's just me. Mmm dark roast, flavor enhanced, any kind that's a good kind, can't stand instant or that crap at work they call Coffee.
mmmmmm

Wicked - "Defying Gravity" music and lyrics by Stephen Schwartz

ELPHABA
I know
But I don't want it - No!
I can't want it anymore

Something has changed within me
Something is not the same
I'm through with playing by
The rules of someone else's game
Too late for second-guessing
Too late to go back to sleep
It's time to trust my instincts
Close my eyes
And leap...

It's time to try Defying Gravity
I think I'll try Defying Gravity
And you can't pull me down

GLINDA
Can't I make you understand
You're having delusions of grandeur?

ELPHABA
I'm through accepting limits
Cuz someone says they're so
Some things I cannot change
But till I try I'll never know
Too long I've been afraid of
Losing love I guess I've Iost
Well if that's love
It comes at much too high a cost

I'd sooner buy Defying Gravity
Kiss me goodbye, I'm Defying Gravity
And you can't pull me down!

Glinda, come with me. Think of what we could do - together!

Unlimited
Together we're Unlimited
Together we'll be the greatest team
There's ever been - Glinda!
Dreams the way we pl d 'em

GLINDA
If we work in tandem

GLINDA & ELPHABA
There's no fight we cannot win
Just you and I, Defying Gravity
With you and I Defying Gravity

ELPHABA
They'll never bring us down!

Well, are you coming?

(GLINDA decides to stay behind.)

GLINDA
I hope you're happy
I hope your happy now that your choosing this -

ELPHABA
You too--
I hope it brings you bliss

GLINDA & ELPHABA
I really hope you get it
And you don't live to regret it
I hope you're happy in the end
I hope you're happy my friend

ELPHABA
So if you care to find me
Look to the Western sky!
As someone told me lately
Everyone deserves the chance to fly
And if I'm flying solo
At least I'm flying free
To those who ground me
Take a message back from me!

Tell them how I am Defying Gravity
I'm flying high, Defying Gravity
And soon I'll match them in renown
And nobody in all of Oz
No Wizard that there is or was
Is ever gonna bring Me Down!!

GLINDA
I hope you're happy

CITIZENS OF OZ
Look at her
She's Wicked
Get her!!

ELPHABA
Bring me down!

CITIZENS OF OZ
No One Mourns The Wicked
So we got to bring her -

ELPHABA
AHHHH!

CITIZENS OF OZ
--DOWN!

Wonder Why?

No not the TV show
But do you ever wonder why, I mean the type of wondering where you are just left there standing, throw your arms up, questioning, Why?

Do you ever wish you could just get up and leave everything behind you? Not have to worry about one thing or another? Just go where ever the wind takes you, carefree from the whys.

Do you ever wish you could go back and see if knowing what you now know would change the situation? Or would it all just play out the same and not like Groundhog's Day. Would you want it to change, for if there was this change then other moments would change or just not happen.

Do you ever get that feeling in the pit of your stomach that you just want to ball up and throw away? And no matter how you try it just doesn't go away.

Do you ever wonder what it would be like to fly, and no not in a plane. Or that feeling of weightlessness rarely experienced?

Why wonder, when nothing ever happens?

Euro 2004

Great news today the Netherlands have made it through to the next round beating Sweden. What a great game. I have become a workaholic this past week and not really by choice. Science takes time and takes time from your non existent life. I might as well just have a cot at work to sleep there.

About sleeping how great would it be to have a siesta? I really think they are on to somthing there.

Today was the big McCain Family bbq, felt old and odd seeing people I went to HS with there with their spouse and their 2 kids,

Other than that nothing is going on here, I really wish I could go somewhere warm and sunny for a vacation just a week at least that has tons of historic neat things and such just to absorb it all and none of this strange wether that we have been having here in NB

One good thing about not being outside is that I get to avoid all the black flies and such

June 28

GO out and Vote people that's all I can say

Stupid ATV/CTV

So there I was, sitting with my blueberry orange smoothie in one hand, a vorrtmann no Trans cookie in the other, egerly waiting for the Alais season finale, when what do I see but another stupid American Idol program about the show itself, enough of the spin off things, Fox has enough to show, now I have to wait till 10 to watch it, gerrr arggg
