im gonna be on the DISCOVERY CHANNEL! WHEEEE!!
oh it's all so terribly exCIting :D
how it went down:
ppl at discovery wanted to do an... intro? on all the sports in the olympics. it's basically a 10 sec spot introducing all the sports. so anyways, i dont know how they got ahold of my coach's # but they did, and asked her if she had anyone that could demonstrate the sport. so she called me and said:
"hello wendy, what are you doing this Wed?"
"umm nothing, why?"
"wanna be on the discovery channel?"
"sure!"
oh it's all so terribly exCIting :D

"umm nothing, why?"
"wanna be on the discovery channel?"
"sure!"
[details here] ...yada yada...
so yaaaaarrrrr...tis exciting :D
shooting this wed for 1.5 hrs (for 10 sec of air time..pfft..go figure).
i duno when it'll actually air, but will update here once i know.
well it has been a long while since ive last updated...but im too lazy to update any of you so...too bad. however, im feeling generous today so i'll give some in point form :P and of course, the rants (which have been lacking as of late) will be delivered in full detail.
-still jobless and getting rather hopeless. will apply to CNE and hope to get hired for the 2 weeks that it's operational
- ARCHERY! is going really well. and as much as ive found it hard to believe, the 3 yrs hiatus that i took hardly made a difference in my form. after building up my muscles again (oh so slowly and painfully) in order to hold the weight, my form is still superbe and my grouping still kicks ass :D now is a matter of moving my grouping to where i actualy want it to go...ie the center. so other than minor inconsistancies which i'll have to work on...everything else is good. whee.
- Canadian championships in two weeks...i just hope im ready for it..will be in the senior division (18 +) so DAMMIT
- need to get in better shape. that is all. rob and kenny(grr..) needs to drag me to gym more often (and vice versa)
-finally finished watching the 2nd season of "24" and have come to the realization that i CANT watch the 3rd season. all the female characters are INFURIATINGLY stupid - except for the evil ones, theyre fine. and they kept bringing in new/random characters into the story: "opps, we've written the story into a corner, hmm what can we do? i know, lets bring in a new character to solve this problem and then he can be killed off afterwards". well ok, so it wasnt EXACTLY like that, but so it seemed. i think mostly, kim just pisses me off; shes useless, and to have her work in CTU 3rd season would just be too painful to watch.
RANTS
since i always find things that piss me off on a (semi) daily basis, i'll just recount the most recent occurances i.e. from 2 hrs ago:
#1
my relatives from the US arrived today and so we all went out to dinner. i drove myself after coming back from practice. so i was driving around trying to find a parking space (cuz its always so busy) and was pretty pleased when i found one close to the restaurant. i began to pull in when i noticed that these ppl from the car next to it was standing where MY parking space was, they were getting ready to leave and saying bye and stuff to their family/friends. usually this only takes a few minutes, even less if ppl know that youre waiting for the empty space beside them. NO, not THESE jerks:
-"oh bye!"
-" see you later"
-" oh why dont you come get some stuff from my car?"
-"no its on the other side"
- why dont i just take my SWEET time getting into the driver's seat cuz its not like anyone is WAITING for me to drive away
- i think i'll just stand in this empty parking space cuz that car thats starting to pull in couldnt POSSIBLY be pulling into THIS space where i HAPPEN to be standing
-"why dont we meet tmr for dim sum? ok? want to set a time now?"
fucking assholes. i was SOOO close to honking at them when they finally got the point (me glaring at them) and started moving. so i pulled into the spot, got out, glared at them some more, and walked to the restaurant.
#2
upon reaching the doors to the restaurant, still fuming from the incident above, i see this guy standing on the inside of the doors. the doors are frosted so i couldnt see what he looked like, but i thought he seemed kinda old so i was like "well ok, i'll be nice and open the door for him".
WHAT A MISTAKE
not only was the guy NOT old, he was in his late 30s, talking on his cell, and walked thru the doors as if it was my duty to open it for him. forget "thank you", he didnt even throw a glance in my direction before walking off. so even more pissed off than before, i sat down to dinner looking like i was about to kill someone.
this will be the LAST time i EVER open a door for any chinese ppl and i dont even care if they have to use a walking stick(actually these ppl are even worse, almost with a condescending look as they walk thru the door and might as well toss in "thats right girlie, im old and you had better respect me. keep that door open for the rest of my family too"). for sobbing out loud ppl! have you ANY manners at all?? i actually dont mind doing things for (these) people, but they could at least acknowledge the fact that i did something: a nod, a smile, and realize that i could have very well slammed the door in their face, yelled "aha sucka", and walked away that way.
well anyways, so thats that. i think this post is long enough so i'll stop here and hopefully, occasion will strike me to blog again in the near future.

1 week left
everybody needs to go see Harry Potter 3! went to see it with Li, Alex, and Robbie opening weekend, not as packed as i thought it would be...but then thats also cuz i was late (again) and everyone was already inside..actually no, i take that back cuz the theatre was pretty empty, comparatively speaking (with regards to the past 2 movies).
the new director really put a new spin on the story, too bad he's only directing this one. it's so much funnier: more jokes, cracks, poking fun. loved how he crammed so much more "magic" scenes into the movie, watching the background action was almost as entertaining as paying attention to the actual movie :) probably the only thing i found (slightly) annoying about the director was that he LOVED close-ups. every other scene was him zooming in on: the characters, nature shots, etc. it got a bit much after awhile.
as for the many "sexual undertones" that many movie reviewers hinted to, they all have dirty, dirty minds. WHAT were they paying attention to?? so fine, just because the last movie he directed was more sexually explicit than this one, doesnt mean that he would direct a childrens movie the same way too. really, i saw none of it - more like the awkward preteen stage.
oh yeah... Emma Thompson was AWESOME as PROFESSOR TREWLANEY. ACTING! whoohoo! she portrayed the character so accurately and it was exactly as i had imagined her to be. too bad she didnt have that many scenes, she was hilarious.
what else?
started watching Firefly and am now addicted thanks to Ly. it's a sci-fi western. "gwah??" you say? heh, yea thats right. but its incredibly witty and cleverly written - so naturally, it got cancelled. stupid Fox, youre all idiots. it's so very quotable, although ive not watched it nearly enough times to remember anything specifically. darn.
"this is mah very favourite gun....i call her vera". hee. (im sure i'll get corrected on that quote :P )
one weird thing bout the series is that the characters keep blurting out these random phrases that sound...mandarin. hmm mangled beyond recognition? or some new mix of languages. well they say it fluently enough so it sounds believable coming out of their mouths. i should learn mandarin.
what else?
ya im about to chuck my stupid mp3/cd player into a REALLY hard surface. like a concrete elephant. blasted thing skips like its purposely trying to piss me off - not that it takes much. what the hell??! i WALK and it skips. forget putting it in my backpack, at one point i was holding it in my HAND. so i wondered if it just wasnt cuz it was a burnt music cd, so i put a legit one in and it played perfectly. well what the HELL GOOD is that if its supposed to play mp3's?!? it also plays well if its lying perfectly still and on a flat surface, or if youre walking REEEEEEEEEEAAALLY SLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWLY. stupid iRiver, you suck. now i have to go back to pacific mall and haggle with the storekeeper. i hate haggling. need to switch to another company! hmm will have to bring my mummerz. she can sweet-talk like nobody's business ;)
hmm what else?
i want a new bow. since thats not gonna happen anytime soon...want carbon arrows. or could set my sights a BIT lower and get these.
frick. damn expensive. and jobless.
oh yeah! have been told to compete in this, so hopefully will be in good shape then. mmmmmmmmm Canadian Championships.
currently:
Avril - under my skin album - "forgotten"
Andre Rieu - "jalousie tango"
Rachael Lampa - "if you believe"
Michael Bublé - "come fly with me"

oh right, i forgot why i didnt want to post...blogger is so damn blubbly now. and too many buttons to click
anyhoo..i wonder if there is ever a polite way to tell someone they STINK. heres the story. so i came back to kingston after the long weekend and took coach canada instead of driving back cuz..my parents were paranoid that it was gonna pour (actually it was forecasted but never did end up pouring) and i would slam into a tree (or a mac truck).
anyways, so whatever that wasnt a big deal. i got on the bus and sat near the back - sorta the first row of seats just in front of the washroom. 2 seconds after i sat down i was like "holy cow, WHAT is that smell??" at first i thought it was coming from the washroom, except that it never smells like that. well i got up and moved anyways just in case. then, the cause of this putridfying smell came out of the washroom. HE was the reason. to help you better understand the extent of this paralyzing odour, imagine someone peeing on themselves for ... however many YEARS and NEVER taking a bath. seriously, the homeless people in downtown TO dont smell this bad. have you ever been around little boys, usually toddlers, with jam hands and sometimes smelling like urine? well, like that only 100 times worse. it was bad. it was nauseating. it was 2 fucking hours trapped in a seat 4 rows ahead of him. heh, funny sight was that everyone had their coats around their head or just covering their noses (same with me).
and yea, speaking of 2 hrs, he had went up to the driver to chat for the first 30 mins of the trip. so i think the driver took pity on us and floored it all the way to kingston. picture this: bus arrived at 6pm, we made a brief stop at Whitby GO station, and arrived at Kingston bus terminal at exactly 8pm. thats insane, but much appreciated. of course it felt..nay..it smelt..much longer than that.
there were other stories/rants that i had from this weekend, but this one topped them all.
(that and im lazy)

hmmm blogger changed its format for posting and whatnot..i dont like it...theres more clicking involved. i dont like unwelcomed change
a fast update since i have tutorials in bout .5 hrs.
-for awhile, a guy moved in across the street from us. he had no blinds. not so anymore..darn it.
-the weather here is finally becoming less spastic..well, still rain but not so much with the ridiculous temperature changes.
- has anyone ever seen "the swan" on tv? another one of those reality shows where they take women and remake them complete with plastic surgery? man, that is so disgusting. i mean, great for those women now cuz they had such low self-esteem to start with..but down the road? when the plastic starts messing them up? good luck with all that. its so sad
- there are no newspaper to be found anywhere on campus. SUCH limited supply its not even funny...i came to school today around 9am and managed to grab a copy of the star, by break time 1.5 hrs later, everything was gone. i guess im not the only one without internet access at home
-hmm there were more things i had in mind to blather on about but i cant remember...so tune in next time.

fine you guys are so lazy and then yell at me for not updating!! it's still long ..regardless...however, edited!! blah. enjoy :D
so it's been awhile...will be even more so now that im here in kingston for the spring term and have NO internet at home and have to trek the 15 mins to campus to check my email.
whats been new? lets start at the beginning..for those at work..prepare for some major time wasting (and good money spent on your boss' account ;) Here we go:
~I PASSED MY G TEST!!! WHOO!!! bring on the reckless driving cuz i dont have to care till im 60! (or is it 65? anyhoo...) wheeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!
~ went to fairview with Li last friday and shopped at H&M. that store is fast becoming my fav. place to shop! go check it out if you have time.. the men's section/selection is pretty slim however. oh and went to see "13 going on 30" - the new movie with Jennifer Garner. it was...hmm...a cheesy but cute movie. and more cheese and it wouldve been unbearable, but as it stands now i'd recommend going to see it as a "hmm what should we do now? we're bored and are so tired of walking around the mall, i know! lets go see a movie" -type deal(sarcasm works when its shorter, i know i know). but no, it's very predictable but very funny. makes you think back to those good ol' days of gr 7 and/or 8 when the mean, bitchy girls ruled the school...speaking of which, i also want to go see "mean girls". guilty pleasure? mmm perhaps ;) Lindsay Lohan is so much more tolerable than Hilary Duff, i find. something about HD makes her so...wasstheword...slappable.
~ oh! and Li and I both bought another HOOJ mug from Disney. im starting a collection..i have 2 now. hee. s'wonderful. why use regular sized mugs when you can have a HOOJ one? exactly.
~moving day in kingston: was PAINFUL. i will never be able to figure out how THREE people managed to accumulate so much STUFF (i hesitate to use the word 'crap' cuz..theyre all invaluable possessions...ummm yes). so anyways, we rented a cargo van and made 4 FULL trips! boxes and boxes of our own individual stuff and then comes the furniture. so while we did take (a lot) of audrey's stuff with us, it still took us from 10 - 11ish AM till around 7:30 PM to finish moving everything into our new house, this doesnt even account for the fact that we did NO unpacking or rearranging of furniture..basically, we moved everything in and left. JOEL is fantastic! he drove back from TO to help us move and then drove back the next day. so very nice of him...we left him Lindt chocolate as (a sort of) payment :D
~ anyways, complications with one of the old tenats who hadnt moved out yet and lead to her thinking we were loud, obnoxious people who wanted to take over the apt before her lease was up; and us(me) thinking that she was a slob who hadnt even started packing yet and couldnt pick up after herself. yar...i tried to vacuum the place before the others started moving in the furniture but couldnt understand why there were SO many pieces of: clothes, garbage, decoration, misc lying around when she was to move out in a couple of days and shouldve been packing. so started throwing out the garbage and taking out the garbage bags in order to clean and make room for ALL of our stuff; was later informed that we (I) was infringing on her privacy since technically it was still her place. ok understandable from her perspective, but partially..i was thinking: ok but im cleaning YOUR house as youre living in it, how is THAT fair? if you knew that we were gonna be moving in, logically wouldnt you move your stuff out of the way? oh well, misunderstanding on communication i suppose. s'all over now
~ we have our house/apt!!! it has so much potential! theres a landing at the top of the stairs that we WILL be turning into cushion heaven, tho so far its been a storage place for boxes..and rather dusty and cobwebby.
~ enclosed alleyway is so fantastic since it usually means that we dont have to lock our door during the day. still have to meet our (townie) neighbours but theyve not been a problem thus far. rather loud at times (which im at present attributing to the hockey playoffs...), but bearable. will have to get used to the traffic noises outside my window (cuz we're located RIGHT in the heart of downtown kingston) but i'll categorize it as ambient noise(in my mind) and hopefully it'll not bother me too much in the future.
~ so the apt is still in a working state: there are boxes in odd places, furniture that needs to be turned upright, places that need to be wiped, and carpets that need to be deep cleaned..vacuumed...something process that i cant remember right now but ive been blathering on about for the past week! duno how they lived..its so gicky. the carpet turned 3 shades darker after i ran the vacuum over it several times. it was quite appalling. Ly rocks cuz she cleaned so much stuff already before i moved in (for spring term). so am now slowly rearranging my room, unpacking and cleaning other parts of the house. its a slow process.
~ things that are FABULOUS about our apt: our "neighbours" downstairs in the bistro. i went with Ly downstairs to the bistro to get our mail(cuz its delivered there for simplicity sake) and met one of the workers there. Michael: so very nice, friendly, gay, and FABULOUS. he is just so cute, if youve ever watched Sex and the City, he acts just like Standford Blatch. meeting him for the first time, he proceeded to tell Ly and I about his evening at the opera with his partner...richest people in kingston..yada yada...good food...yada yada...very talented singers...yada yada...and painted a very vivid picture of all the fabulous gowns and jewellery some of the women were wearing. as Ly said, he couldnt have made a better first impression/ put on a better show for me. i love him, he is fabulous :D
~ OUR LOCATION is absolutely unbelievable(i'd use fabulous again, but i think im exhausting the word)! we're SO close to everything. shoppers the literally across the street, as is zellers. business depot is down the street, food basics isnt too far from that. the hospital is one street behind us, in case Li falls down the flight of concrete stairs (knock on wood) ;P, and very yummy restaurants/eateries all around. i love it!! the only bad thing is that campus is a full 15 min walk at a brisk pace, and there is no free parking - so you park on the street and feed the meter, or park illegally and plead to the judge that you are a poor student and cant pay when you get ticketed :D Still have to figure out the bus route since it runs RIGHT by us and takes us to campus directly...but i have another month to go and with the gorgeous weather now, i'd rather walk.
~ Spring courses: one of my profs is so FANTASTIC. she explained stuff with such clarity that i wonder why she didnt teach during the fall/winter term. im very happy with her...should be a good course.
~ finally an econ prof that is NOT asian. hes pretty. young, tall, British :D ...without the accent but with english tendencies/phrases/examples. quite enjoyable.
~ Kingston in the Spring: WHAT is with all these lil highschoolers wandering around? im sure theyre here for some sorta program cuz they have this flourescent lanyard/keychain hanging from their pockets. but..so annoying. well mostly cuz my classes are in maccory and the computers in there are always taken up by them such that i cant check my email in between breaks...hmm oh well. once again: why do the little girls look so skanky?? already! so sad. no older than 16 i would guess. it boggles the mind.
~ stupid insects! theyre like ants thatve developed wings and theyre EVERYWHERE! i guess its worse now cuz it just rained the night before but..yech! you never know where they are until you walk thru a whole column of them - flying around your head, and youre swatting the air like some mad woman. theres a good reason why ive never gone camping, nor have any real desire to. id get eaten alive. i loathe all those that i cant shoot dead with an arrow. bring on the pesticide.
~ been given the key to the boyz house and have been cleaning out their fridge! i know you guys read this! youre all insane..theres so much stuff in the freezer! but not much in the fridge...so unless you were all planning to have a BBQ sometime mid-june, s'all gone. woulda sent out an email but well...lazy so you can learn about it here. *smile* the house is so empty..its so depressing. but at least you know no one's broken in! so yay! for you.
s'all for now. dont expect anything exciting much will be happening here anytime soon. will be back in TO for some weekends but other than that..need to clean/organize house and study! midterms are in 3 weeks..insanity! but yes, do email me cuz that will likely be the highlight of my day :P
~toodles
so it's been awhile...will be even more so now that im here in kingston for the spring term and have NO internet at home and have to trek the 15 mins to campus to check my email.

~moving day in kingston: was PAINFUL. i will never be able to figure out how THREE people managed to accumulate so much STUFF (i hesitate to use the word 'crap' cuz..theyre all invaluable possessions...ummm yes). so anyways, we rented a cargo van and made 4 FULL trips! boxes and boxes of our own individual stuff and then comes the furniture. so while we did take (a lot) of audrey's stuff with us, it still took us from 10 - 11ish AM till around 7:30 PM to finish moving everything into our new house, this doesnt even account for the fact that we did NO unpacking or rearranging of furniture..basically, we moved everything in and left. JOEL is fantastic! he drove back from TO to help us move and then drove back the next day. so very nice of him...we left him Lindt chocolate as (a sort of) payment :D
~ anyways, complications with one of the old tenats who hadnt moved out yet and lead to her thinking we were loud, obnoxious people who wanted to take over the apt before her lease was up; and us(me) thinking that she was a slob who hadnt even started packing yet and couldnt pick up after herself. yar...i tried to vacuum the place before the others started moving in the furniture but couldnt understand why there were SO many pieces of: clothes, garbage, decoration, misc lying around when she was to move out in a couple of days and shouldve been packing. so started throwing out the garbage and taking out the garbage bags in order to clean and make room for ALL of our stuff; was later informed that we (I) was infringing on her privacy since technically it was still her place. ok understandable from her perspective, but partially..i was thinking: ok but im cleaning YOUR house as youre living in it, how is THAT fair? if you knew that we were gonna be moving in, logically wouldnt you move your stuff out of the way? oh well, misunderstanding on communication i suppose. s'all over now
~ we have our house/apt!!! it has so much potential! theres a landing at the top of the stairs that we WILL be turning into cushion heaven, tho so far its been a storage place for boxes..and rather dusty and cobwebby.
~ enclosed alleyway is so fantastic since it usually means that we dont have to lock our door during the day. still have to meet our (townie) neighbours but theyve not been a problem thus far. rather loud at times (which im at present attributing to the hockey playoffs...), but bearable. will have to get used to the traffic noises outside my window (cuz we're located RIGHT in the heart of downtown kingston) but i'll categorize it as ambient noise(in my mind) and hopefully it'll not bother me too much in the future.
~ so the apt is still in a working state: there are boxes in odd places, furniture that needs to be turned upright, places that need to be wiped, and carpets that need to be deep cleaned..vacuumed...something process that i cant remember right now but ive been blathering on about for the past week! duno how they lived..its so gicky. the carpet turned 3 shades darker after i ran the vacuum over it several times. it was quite appalling. Ly rocks cuz she cleaned so much stuff already before i moved in (for spring term). so am now slowly rearranging my room, unpacking and cleaning other parts of the house. its a slow process.
~ things that are FABULOUS about our apt: our "neighbours" downstairs in the bistro. i went with Ly downstairs to the bistro to get our mail(cuz its delivered there for simplicity sake) and met one of the workers there. Michael: so very nice, friendly, gay, and FABULOUS. he is just so cute, if youve ever watched Sex and the City, he acts just like Standford Blatch. meeting him for the first time, he proceeded to tell Ly and I about his evening at the opera with his partner...richest people in kingston..yada yada...good food...yada yada...very talented singers...yada yada...and painted a very vivid picture of all the fabulous gowns and jewellery some of the women were wearing. as Ly said, he couldnt have made a better first impression/ put on a better show for me. i love him, he is fabulous :D
~ OUR LOCATION is absolutely unbelievable(i'd use fabulous again, but i think im exhausting the word)! we're SO close to everything. shoppers the literally across the street, as is zellers. business depot is down the street, food basics isnt too far from that. the hospital is one street behind us, in case Li falls down the flight of concrete stairs (knock on wood) ;P, and very yummy restaurants/eateries all around. i love it!! the only bad thing is that campus is a full 15 min walk at a brisk pace, and there is no free parking - so you park on the street and feed the meter, or park illegally and plead to the judge that you are a poor student and cant pay when you get ticketed :D Still have to figure out the bus route since it runs RIGHT by us and takes us to campus directly...but i have another month to go and with the gorgeous weather now, i'd rather walk.
~ Spring courses: one of my profs is so FANTASTIC. she explained stuff with such clarity that i wonder why she didnt teach during the fall/winter term. im very happy with her...should be a good course.
~ finally an econ prof that is NOT asian. hes pretty. young, tall, British :D ...without the accent but with english tendencies/phrases/examples. quite enjoyable.
~ Kingston in the Spring: WHAT is with all these lil highschoolers wandering around? im sure theyre here for some sorta program cuz they have this flourescent lanyard/keychain hanging from their pockets. but..so annoying. well mostly cuz my classes are in maccory and the computers in there are always taken up by them such that i cant check my email in between breaks...hmm oh well. once again: why do the little girls look so skanky?? already! so sad. no older than 16 i would guess. it boggles the mind.
~ stupid insects! theyre like ants thatve developed wings and theyre EVERYWHERE! i guess its worse now cuz it just rained the night before but..yech! you never know where they are until you walk thru a whole column of them - flying around your head, and youre swatting the air like some mad woman. theres a good reason why ive never gone camping, nor have any real desire to. id get eaten alive. i loathe all those that i cant shoot dead with an arrow. bring on the pesticide.
~ been given the key to the boyz house and have been cleaning out their fridge! i know you guys read this! youre all insane..theres so much stuff in the freezer! but not much in the fridge...so unless you were all planning to have a BBQ sometime mid-june, s'all gone. woulda sent out an email but well...lazy so you can learn about it here. *smile* the house is so empty..its so depressing. but at least you know no one's broken in! so yay! for you.
s'all for now. dont expect anything exciting much will be happening here anytime soon. will be back in TO for some weekends but other than that..need to clean/organize house and study! midterms are in 3 weeks..insanity! but yes, do email me cuz that will likely be the highlight of my day :P

oh. so theyre NAKED?!
hahaha! walking to my econ 7pm exam, i was greeted by an "awesome" sight: three streakers ran past the arena (where the exam was held). one was lagging behind the other two..poor guy, we were saying how he was gonna get caught - tho none of the security ppl made any move to run after them: "im not running after a bunch of streakers". haha the guard greeting us examinees was funny. hmm..i had no desire to lookit their giblets (hee Scrubs)... does that make me abnormal? "hmm right so im gonna look at my notes now" as they came closer. cool sunglasses tho- bright, orange, Oakleys, ShInY. others were black..something..meh...
well the ordeal was weird mostly cuz
-7pm!! uh..sunlight? boy they sure are proud of their bodies
-thats a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG road that they were running. where did they come from? no nearby houses...school buildings everywhere..i dont get it. mebbe they were out for a jog and got too hot?
-tho there never is a good occasion for streaking...why would they do that before the game? the Leafs didnt even win yet! no thats not even it...it was just a weird time for them to streak.
sooooooooooooo...with THAT lovely thought running thru my head, i went in to write my exam.
heh. silly boys and their joysticks. you all amuse me so very much :D

oooo old songs. one hit wonders. gotta love them. doesnt help that i cant remember song titles, or singer names, or the time when they were a hit. i just know these songs. anyhooo....Donna Lewis: I love you always forever
Feels like I'm standing
in a timeless dream
of light mists
of pale amber rose
Feels like I'm lost in a deep cloud
of heavenly scent touching
discovering you.
Those days of warm rains
come rushing back to me
miles of windless summer night air
Secret moments shared
in the heat of the afternoon
out of the stillness
soft spoken words
say it say it again
I love you always forever
near and far closer together
everywhere I will be with you
everything I will do for you
You've got the most unbelievable
blue eyes I've ever seen
You've got me almost melting away
As we lay there under blue sky
with pure white stars
exotic sweetness a magical time
say it say it again
Say you'll love love me forever
never stop never whatever
near and far and always
and everywhere and everything
Feels like I'm standing
in a timeless dream
of light mists
of pale amber rose
Feels like I'm lost in a deep cloud
of heavenly scent touching
discovering you.
Those days of warm rains
come rushing back to me
miles of windless summer night air
Secret moments shared
in the heat of the afternoon
out of the stillness

I love you always forever

everywhere I will be with you
everything I will do for you

blue eyes I've ever seen
You've got me almost melting away
As we lay there under blue sky
with pure white stars
exotic sweetness a magical time
say it say it again
Say you'll love love me forever
never stop never whatever
near and far and always
and everywhere and everything

updating more this time 'round
ok so disturbing fetishes aside, this is just sick: BS in all her glory? or well, maybe not. while he does look feminine, he could prolly pull off the nick carter look (from backstreet boys). ah well too bad.
this is pretty damn interesting too: korean transgender who's HUGE right now and this is actually how she makes her living. ok for the record, im NOT closed minded but its just so very odd how accepted she is right now. dammit, she looks better than a REAL girl! although arguably, it is mostly cuz she WAS moulded and handcrafted by plastic surgeons. but still..thats just so wrong..
stupid msn messenger is PISSING me off. first it tells me to update to ver 6.1, then it refuses to automatically update, so i uninstalled 6.0 and am d/l from the site directly. freakn hell its taking WAY too long for the download. wassup with that!?! 20% in the last 10 min! and then have to reinstall everyting again..and why is it MANDATORY to install the newer version anyways??? what if i LIKE the old version?? how bout if im sentimental about these things and wanted to KEEP it?! blah who am i kidding, this better be worth my while. frick
and messed up my own computer. damn genius im telling you. well, started out with me running out of HD space (pfft, so waht else is new. i need my downloads, ALL of them) so i started deleting things ie programs. see, i figured, since i use media player to play all my dvds anyways, whats the point of having a program to have it play dvds SPECIFICALLY?? (intervideo? and another one). FRICKN, now some codec files are missing so Real player doesnt play and THAT means my freshly downloaded Sex and the City:season 4 WONT play cuz it ONLY plays with real player. so FRICK.
or well, perhaps its a blessing in disguise since this means i cant use it to procrastinate and watch ALL of it in one sitting. and will have to repair my mucked up computer (re: msn, codec, LOTS of other misc screwups, yada) AFTER exams, in which..i get to bug Alexer to fixy-fix (in exchange for the safe return of his precioussssss movies currently residing on my table, collecting dust ;P ) hee. no im not mean. FRICK. finding other means with which to procrastinate. will fail for sure.
study! macro! cant fail this(i know, conflicting thoughts eh?). nor stats...now that i think about it, i have ONE day to study for it??? hmm...Well, am currently drinking a HOOJ mugful of coffee in hopes of staying up tonite and working thru econ. lessee if it werks.
procrastinating now...laterz

time to update. it really has been awhile.
(point form cuz im LAZY)
- currently waiting for liane to get outta the bathroom cuz i forgot to take my contacts out while i was in there
- been working out at the gym: rowing machine and the eliptical (soemthing soemthing, i have no idea what that thing is called). getting better and not loosing my breath as soon; muscles dont hurt afterwards. good good
-staying here for the spring term. taking econ and english for 6 weeks. damn stupidness. elitist Queens doesnt believe in transferring marks, only the credit. WHO CARES?? i need my marks. was gonna take it at UT but nooooooooo i cant cuz it wont count for marks. and no correspondance either. well not for econ anyways so if thats the case, might as well stay here.
-want to participate in the Ontario Summer Games this july for archery. it'll be my last yr (21 and under). need to find some place here to practice. else it'd be hard core training when i get back mid-june
- what am i gonna do about job??? cant find a job here. "oh thanks for hiring me, and btw, i'll be leaving in about 6 weeks...and what with the last week being exam period and all, youll really only get me for 5 weeks. thanks again" yea.. no, thats not gonna work. finding a job when i get back to TO, then i gotta compete with all the lil highschoolers for retail jobs, or i can work as a waitress and pour stuff on people. whee. fun. "sorry sir, i REALLY didnt mean to pour the piping hot soup on you". riiight. great.
- trying so hard to concentrate and study for exams. drifting...mind wandering when i try to study. so really, i read a passage and drift off for about 15 min. how productive am I?? screwed. seeing a academics counsellor tmr so hopefully she can give me better tips on effective studying techniques.
- am REALLY enjoying these albums: Maroon 5 - songs about jane; nelly furtado - folklore; the italian job OST
- want to go to the castle but have a feeling that itll prolly be 3rd year summer if/when i go. and in that case, it'll be for just travelling purposes and will be taking bird courses so that i'll be eligible. mmmmmmmmmm english accents ;)
- watched "bend it like beckham" last night with Li and Ly and Em (every now and then). i was the only one who thought Joe (their coach) looked ugly, even when he appeared with the white shirt to their wedding celebration. just ew. squinty eyes and kinda...horse face? jaw? blah blah. i'll stop, im being mean. a brief shining moment however, during the end when he was in all white playing cricket with the father and the airplane motion. that was cute.
-> also found out a bit bout different english accents. tho i did know that there were class systems built around different accents. apparently every time we mimick an english accent, we are doing the..cockney (SP SP!) accent. so yar..interesting
moving on
- have found the BEST place to study in the library. stauffer. 3rd floor. its great. so quiet and enclosed in a little room so i can pretty much leave my stuff there without fear that someone can just grab it passing by. theres only a couple of people in there at a time and yea..seems very secure. HUGE windows, leather couches, these cushioned chairs with a lil desk dealy that swings out (think lecture hall seating). love the ambient sounds.
- recently acquired a laptop (retired. and with good reason). heres the kicker. TOTAL HD space: 2 gigs. nice eh? LOL. oh well, this restricts me and thats good. cant download anything but will allow for sufficient storage of mp3s (MUCHO IMPORTANTE ;), and applications. theres so much CRAP on it now and im just gonna reformat the entire thing. so annoying, will have to sift thru so much garbage to determine what files are important enough to floppy it. "oh in deleting stuff? use your best judgement and save waht you think looks important" HA! yea right. erasing everything it shall be. haha the deal was, if i buy a network card for it, i get to keep it for the remainder of my undergrad career. so i did, and i am. sweet deal. i like free things.
-G test coming up in may. after exams, will go back home and unlearn my bad habits with an instructor. i dont check my mirrors enough, or at all usually. you know how you just get the feeling that theres a car beside you? you look and sure enough, there it is. so whats the point. well i do check, usually on the highway cuz cars are approaching too fast.
- need to think up a good response for "whats up wit da whack, yo?" hee. funny. im so yellow. post if you have good suggestions.
- a good way to take out frustrations. heh, addictive. i only got to 500 (ish..forget..) one time.
s'it for now. sleep (hopefully). gym. study. i cant believe its only tues..feels like forever. and only another 1.5 weeks to go. time would pass by so much more quicker (quickly?) if it werent for the studying of exams. yick.
