Weekends go by too fast

I honestly thought I had blogged about this weekend already, but i guess i still have to sigh.

FRIDAY
had ppl over for the BBQ Of Champions. The food part went really good i thought. Burgers were good curtosy of Chris and Cortlins deep fryer made super nummy fries and such. omg AND liz made the most amazing cupcake tree that was supernummy. I showed it to my grandma and she shit a brick haha she thinks its basically the best idea ever.
As the night progressed things got more and more dirty which for some reason bothers me more then anything in the world cause it means im gonna have a shitty morning haha
Sam came, which was the best suprised I could have asked for
we went to the wholesale on Central to get her some booze, and as i get out of the car I guess i dropped my phone in a puddle cause Sam brings it to me in various pieces :(The guy behind teh counter said to put it in a bowl of rice.
Sam was makin fun of my sad phone, and then as we were leaving the store, she drops her brand new phone in the very same puddle haha
poetic justice :)

Went back home, put my phone in rice for the night, which seemed to have worked :) except for th eodd ocassion that phone turns itself off and on randomly :(

Kicked ppl out around one. special thanks to Doug and Boots and Sam and Corltin for staying to help me clean. It made my morning alot easier :)

SATURDAY
woke up around 11 to Cortlin leaving to go climbing at Vics. SO i got up and cleaned my house top to bottom, walls, cupboards, floors etc etc. I had to empty the vaccum three times it was so full of crap haha
Around 1:30 Cortlin, Marge and their family friend Mike came and picked me up to go for sushi. It was pretty delicious, Mike is a cool guy, very funny. Very particular about his sushi though.

Went home, watched Nine cause Courteny lent it to me. It was really good actually .i was wary in the beginning but it got really good. makes me wanna go learn how to dance and join a musical where i can wear sequins. My fav part of the movie was the routine his wife did right before she left him

Cortlin came over after, and i kinda dozed in and out of sleep while he played final fantasy.
Boots came over around 9:30 so they had their bro time of sorts.
I was txt Johnny when he made the brilliant suggestion of going to Winstons for a beer.
It was a good visit, I dont think we've had one on one time in ages, so I was really glad that he asked me to go.
We had a brief run in with A. which was extremely awkward, more so then I think was necessary, but A just has the ability to make me feel like Im in someone elses skin. Just not great. Johnny got Kat to call me and feign an important reason to leave. So unfortunately our visit was cut short but it was still good.

Went back to the house. watched the end of fantasia. Its one fucked up show.
Then we put in step brothers
then i started falling asleep so I just went to bed.

Woke up early ish i think.
relaxed
my grandparents came by for a short visit
then i went and got badass jacks cause i was starving and i have no food:(

I think ill take all of today to work on chemistry...

Job Hunt of Champions

Yesterday I went hunting for a second job. I just need some part time evening work to get more money faster. With this school thing back in motion, I need the money quick.
SO I went and applied at solieo foods, but I doubt that will work cause they are only open until seven haha
Then I went to Winstons, where the bartender/supervisor was super super super nice. basically asked when I could start. So I dont know if thats a good sign or not? I hope so, I would be so down to work there :)
I was going to stop at Osheas, but something held me back haha, so maybe this weekend I'll go apply there.
On the way home I applied at Athenas too, cause they had an add in the paper for servers.

Got home, then Cortlin came over to help me organise this BBQ thing which is totally gonna be an indoor BBQ haha. which makes me sad, but Im determined to do it anyways.
Just plz ppl, leave my major appliances alone haha. One dead stove is enough.

Watched some TV
did a bunch of chemistry which is grand. I love that I dont have to re-write the notes cause ive already done it before.

Went to bed around 11
Woke up at four from a super shitty dream.
It wasnt a nightmare, but it just...made me sad haha.
So I didnt really sleep after that.

But you know what?
It;s all gonna be ok
cause we serve salmon today :)

Second Chance at it

Wanna hear the bestest news of all time?

Cindy from SIAST called.
when Iasked her why i was rejected she said that she never got my proof of enrollment in chemistry.
To which I said, hells no, i went out THAT DAY, back in febuary and got them to send Cindy and I acopy of the proof email.
SO cindy was like "OH, well just send me that email and I'll give you your spot back"
IT WAS THAT FREAKING EASY

so i looked at the email that cyber school had sent me and turns out that they spelled cindy's email wrong, so thats why she never got it. bitches.

seriously
Im so happy
like tears of joy happy
and I never cry tears of freaking joy

should have seen me at work
i was running around in circles
:)
:)

AND
my DBH shirt came in :)
BEST DAY EVER

Lazy Sundays

yesterday wasn't a bad day by any means, but it really wasnt a super great day tho. It went on and off I guess.
Started at about 6:45 when the phone rang. I answered to a lady telling me that she was from Royal University Hospital and she had my grandmother and was about to discharge her. Since Doug left for home the night before, I was the lucky duck who got to go and pick her up in the rain haha.
Lucky I know RUH pretty well from working there, so finding ERC wasnt a problem.
Grandma was all smiles and yet complained the whole way back to the care home. Got her back in bed and then went home where I went straight back to bed.

Woke up an hour or so later, craving cinnamon buns like crazy. So I went to the grocery store and got those along with some hair dye that I think I'll accomplish tonight if I feel like it. With my skin somewhat tanning, I want my dark hair back for a while.

After I had my nummy bun, I took a nap haha. Cortlin was super super super hung over and playing final fantasy so I had weird dreams about it.

Then we decided that we wanted to BBQ a few of the burgers that I had in my freezer. It was raining haha but that kinda made the whole process more fun. So that was delicious.
Then Cortlin went home to see his dads new nisan convertible, which im super jealous of :(

I lounged on the couch until I got a phonecall from Securtec. Apparently my late grandpa's house alarm had been going off all day because of a low temperature thingy that was messed up. So they asked me to go check it out, which sucked. I didnt know if i had their house key, and I had no clue what the alarm code was if I was to set it off :(
SO i went anyway, walked around the property a few times, didnt see any windows. The keys i brought were the wrong ones, so I just called the security company and explained that I couldnt get in but everything looked ok. So i assume that thats all i can do until Bob gets home.

Went and got a soy hazelnut latte from mystic java cause i felt i deserved it haha

Went back home, and randomly decided to google Manhattan real estate. Holy shit that place is expensive. There was a bachelor apartment that costs more then my house >_< a bachelor apartment with a doorman haha

And then I watched Time Travellers Wife. It was better the first time I saw it.

that was my sunday :)

today I plan on burning off every horrible food ive eaten in the past week. and being outside cause for once its not raining.

WELCOME HOME COURTENY!!!!!

What did I just do

Went to get the mail today
letter from SIAST
they gave my spot in psych nursing away for this fall
fuck
my
life

fuck conditional acceptance
here i was under the impression that my deadline was the end of May
guess not?

So i emailed her
asked a bunch of desperate questions to fix this mess I made
we'll see what happens I guess

Lets just say that the rain reflects my mood quite well right now

PIzza, pizza pizza

Gah i have not posted in ages.

Quick recap of the weekend
FRIDAY: you all know, Coco got too drunk too fast and for some silly reason I agreed to take him home at ten. Next time im just gonna call curtis >_<
SATURDAY: went for sushi downtown at new island. it was delicious. went garage sailing with Britney, i was unsuccessful although she found some cool stuff :) Then went to James' to watch the bros wash cars. Then I went for drinks. Then went to James' fire partay. Then went to Beilys with Kat Andrea and Sarah, met up with Hilah and Lacey. It was a pretty good time :)
SUNDAY: went to bareass with my love Lizzy :) it was glorious. there was a huge dust storm that missed us so we just listened to the huge crowd vanish in the dust a scream haha. We were there for a couple of hours when everyone else showed up, so unfortunately I didnt last very long, burned my shoulders:( Liz and I stopped for a quick burger at deliciosu fudruckers, then I went home to sleep :)

Monday was lame

Tuesday was also lame

Today...also lame.
go work

i want courteny back

Can't Be Tamed

So this pretty much made my day.

You gotta watch the official mylie cyrus version to find this funny

Rain rain, go away

So i've decided that it's time to start applying for a part time evening jobto make more money. I'm thinking that I will start with Winstons, Osheas, and Maguires haha. Winstons would be epic, not gonna lie.

Oh, so yesterday was Mom Day and so I made my mom take me to Homesense where I bought the orange cabinet with the mirror doors that I had seen on Sat :)
I hate orange
BUt oh man, I'm so in love with this thing guys. I'm gonna try and get a picture of it up so you can share in my love for it

For supper Cortlin came up with the idea to suprise our moms by taking them to supper at Moxies. So we did that :)
It was super nice. I was nervous that it would be awkward cause they havent really talked since grade school, but I should have remembered that my mothers social skills far surpass my own haha. It was lots of fun actually. We ordered a bottle of wine, really good food too. Oh, and Leah Pawluk was our hostess :) so she was extra lovely to us.

Today was Courteny's last day at work before she goes off on her adventures to France :( Im gonna miss her, as I guess Sarah is going to be working with me. I love Sarah, but shes asked me to do the closing shift which just makes me rage.I hate that shift with a passion!
I was looking forward to getting off at three and being able to use the gym while it was quiet

Oh, my shirts came in today :)
I love love love the design by humans one, and the rain rain cant touch my swag shirt just makes me laugh. So im pretty happy with it all

Maybe I'll get up super early and go to the gym...sigh

Without coffee, I sleep too much

I olnly blog on weekends now, and it sucks. Cause it means I have nothing interesting to write about during the week, sigh sad

I'll start with Thursday I suppose. I went to go and watch Fringe at Cortlin's as per tradition. But before we could start it Ben calls with a lot of background noise saying Cortlin must come to Maguires and get super hammered. So we went there for a while. I feel bad cause I'mso badwith names, all I remember are Ben the boxer, Josh the sweet dude who introduced me to long island iced tea, and aaron the boy who didnt say a word all night.
No drinking went on much besides the one which was good as it was a week day. Just visited. Ben is a bit of a slut (his words, not mine) but Im pretty much 100% sure that he has a heart of gold haha. He claims that his promiscuity is his own way of trying to find the perfect woman. He has a six year old son, who he paused the drinking to go call and say goodnight to. Cute :)
After about an hour we went back to Cortlins to watch Fringe. It was a half decent episode

Friday right after work I quickly got ready then a bunch of us went to see Iron Man. It was pretty good. Scarlett Johansan is pretty much hot as hell and I think she may have replaced Megan Fox as my girl crush haha
After the movie I went to havea couple of drinks at Cortlins while we waited for Sam to come. watched discovery channel and got my ass kicked when I tried to snoop in the computer room to try and figure out what Cortlins halloween costume is. No such luck.

Got to Landons, then Liz came and Sam :)
Sam has pretty much the most sexy new car of all time. I am quite jealous. Its a chevy equinox i believe, brand new, gorgeous white. Sam has her adult car already, at 19!! gah my mind is still blown that shes moving to 100 mile house :( I'll have to google map it so I can visit...

Liz Sam and I then went to relive a loved tradition, Hot n Readys haha. So we sat in her car, caught up on some stuff. It was a little taste of nostalgia that i needed.
SO then we went back to Landons, they both went home.
About an hour later Boots Cortlin and I walked to his house, started to watch a bit of a movie but I fell asleep. Around three I decided to call a cab cause Boots had walked home and Coco was passed out for the night.
On the taxi ride home the lady who was driving was under the assumption that I had picked up a boy at the bar and she was aiding in my drive home of shame. So then she proceeded to tell me about all her sexual escapades when she was my age. It was a pretty damn good convo

Sat morning I online window shopped haha. Basically put all this stuff into a shopping cart and then didnt buy any of it. Go me and my new found self control.

Then I went for sushi.
ate too much sushi
then wandered the city until six

went to Lasenza cause i heard that the Stonebridge one had bathing suits? Didnt find any.
Then I went over to the walmart superstore. didnt get anything
went to HomeSense and found this dresser that im pretty sure Im gonna have to go back and buy today haha. Its orange. .pumpkin bright ass orange, and I love it. I need it. Its gonna happen. All i need is moms big trunk cause it wont fit in my car.
Then i went to Petland and fell in love with this big fat bulldog puppy haha.
Then I went to winner, where there was this mom with her four daughters and every time they came out of the changeroom she would take like five pictures, and every second sentence was "Thats so fierce". I wanted to murder her. It made my moms line "Thats juicey" about 100 times less annoying.

Then I went home. had steak with the fam jam
helped Bob build a chair haha.

I was supposed to meet Hilah and Lacey at Beileys at 11:30 so i decided to go and watch a movie before.
I fell asleep
woke up at midnight when Courteny texted me. Felt like the biggest jerk on the planet when I bailed.

so i feel bad about that.
next weekend ladies!

Watchin you grow

The weekend was quite excellent actually.
Friday was Courteny's bday so we all went to Scratch. I got way too drunk :( losing my camera was punishment for my behaviour. Im supre pissed tho, cause there was some really sweet pics on there too :(

Sat i was sad face. So Cortlin and I went for dim sum, which I was worried was gonna come back up like the last time I ate it hung over :( but it stayed down which was good because as soon as I got home Bob toldme to go and get Cortlin and Matt to come and help clear out part of my grandpas basement which had flooded a bit.
So we went over there, and while the guys did all of the heavy lifting I vaccumed and then wandered around my grandpas house, feeling rather strange about being in there since he passed. I found some really awesome retro chairs that mom and Bob say I can have when they sell the house, along with the dining room table.
I went through some of his old records as well, and found the original "I want a hippopotamus for christmas" so I played that like nine times :) Its epic. I love records
Of course as soon as we finish (ok as soon as Matt and Cortlin finish) putting all the garbage into the trucks, Bob somehow gets us to drive the stuff to the dump. He gave both Cortlin and Matt a 26 of whiskey to thank them for thier hard work lol.
So we went to the dump. my first time there since I was like seven. I felt like such a pampered brat when I had no clue whether or not the guy in the orange jumpsuit was gonna unload the truck for me haha.
After that we went to BK, had a delicious victory burger, and then went home.

I took a quick nap before going and picking those two up again, then we went to Johnnys for a wicked sweet partay.
James got back from Costa Rica :) I missed that kid lots, although i hate him for tanning like a pro. I kinda gave up on tanning, my skin just rejects it.
So we partied, well, i partied sober haha. Had some good laughs with all my fav ppl.
Oh and Liz Kim and I went and got HotnReadys which just about made me the happiest camper on this here planet. Havent had them in ages.

Sunday I woke up and pretty much showered, packed for Regina and left
Got there around four. went for supper with Kayla at the Regina version of New Island. Ours is better, and way cheaper.
Then we randomly decided that we wanted to find a bakery. But we couldnt so we settled for this place that shared a space with subway that sold frozen yogurt pies haha. so Kayla bought us a pie and we went back to her dorm and ate a bit of it. It was sub par

Oh! THEN we picked up Ozzie and went to see Nightmare on Elm Street. If i hadnt seen the original version of this movie I probably would have liked it, but compared to the original it was stupid. The main character Nancy went from being a bubbly curly haired chick to this semi-emo girl with a subtle lisp.
And Freddy went from being a psycho power engineer killing machine, to a gardener who liked to molest children haha. Cortlin was none impressed when he heard that.
The visuals were good tho, and I liked how it gave way more background info on Freddy.

Monday morning I was woken up by Kaylas stupid dorm ppl who thought slamming doors would be just swell.
SO i got up, put on my dress and fancy stuff then we had a quick walk to tim hortons then mcdonalds for various breakfast munchies.

Around Ten i headed out to the RCMP depot for Sam's graduation :)
oh man, I cried, not gonna lie. Itold myself that i wouldn't, but as soon as she was introduced as a new memeber of the real deal RCMP i teared up. Im seriously so proud of that girl :) shes got her life together, and shes all grown up and movin out into the world :) gah, im so so proud :)
After the paper signing ceremony we had a quick lunch, then there was a parade where Sam's troup went from their cadet gear to the official RCMP outfits, all red and fancy. I felt so patriotic watching then march all over the place haha
Then we got to see them to a drill, which blew my mind, ill try and post the video i took
Then they got thier badges :)

Love you Sam :)
once again, im so proud!
