that canadian girl

Last night (and again today) I went to see the twins’ school show and it was GREAT! It’s not often you’ll hear me say that about anything remotely related to Rockland but in this case, they deserve the kudos! I’ll have TONS of pics online from the show within the next week or so… Thumbs [...]

I haven’t posted all week, haven’t really spent time at the computer this week other than to study for exams either! Which is rather unusual will agree those who know me

So I do… I hate moving, I hate the process of living in boxes for the week prior to leaving, I hate the gloomy feeling of walking around my room trying not to trip on boxes and looking for something to do now that everything but my computer and school binders is packed! Moved over [...]

Here are the pics from last night (minus the first three) http://php-gallery.its-the.net/gal.php?user=raindrop&gid=48 In a week plus an hour, I’m on the plane, leaving the country… Can’t really believe it yet…

Anyone remember the Pulp song called Mile End? Was in the Trainspotting soundtrack… Check this link for the lyrics (only no-popups site I found, sorry if it’s slow) http://www.lyricmania.com/l24922 Anyways, the reason I’m bringing this song up is because today, the elevator in my building smelt of cow manure… I mean, I’ve smelled horrible things [...]

Not long until it’s time to leave for England now… So many things to do and so little time left! Yesterday was my last day at work. No more “Centre de Cyber-apprentissage, Bonjour!” for me! Tomorrow morning’s exam should go alright, since it’s an open book exam, I know my concepts and my notes are [...]

Last night was my hen night, bachelorette party, whatchuwannacallit going away party… It was really nice seeing everyone before leaving for a long time. We had dinner at Clair De Lune on Clarence St. and I had quite nice lamb, though I’m not sure everyone else had meals they really enjoyed… But the company was [...]

Hier soir, je suis allée souper chez mes grand-parents à Hull. On a commencé regarder la partie de hockey mais comme j’étais trop fatiguée pour suivre la puck, je suis descendue dans le studio de grand-maman pour admirer ses dernières peintures, et… son nouvel ordi! Wowie wow! Comme elle dit, elle fait pas les choses [...]

Tonight, I went for nachos at the Royal Oak with Michelle, who’s back from her South America adventures… Nachos? How unexpected of us! Anyways, we walked there from my place as it was quicker than the bus and it was just so nice outside. Walking together, I didn’t really pay attention to what was going [...]

I have a theory that the less time you have free, the more unexpected time-filling things pop up to fill up the liiiiittle bit of free time you have left. Change of plans, sudden invitations to go for coffee with people you’ve known for years but never really thought of hanging out with, phone numbers [...]
