123 STOP

+ Falling asleep in afternoon class. Um, it's a first. Usually morning class is freaking tiring/boring, altogether useless.
+ Being able to catch at least the opening of the Oscars last night. FRANCO! :)
+ Watching and rewatching the Kev Adams "FANTA" video. NON-STOP. And share it with everyone in my family and laugh so hard until I nearly die each and every time. Hahaha.

NOW: Waiting to head home. Only 25 mins left. My back hurts. My left hand still hurts. Freaking hell. That's my writing hand too.

DIE & SUCCEED

~ Interview II, done. I'm feeling good about this one. All the way in freaking Etobicoke. Yay for parents who love their children! (i.e. mine) Drop-off/pick-up.
~ Spicy Dragon on Friday
~ IKEA frozen yogurt on Saturday. Delicious.
~ Kev Adams vids on YouTube. Hahah
~ 5lbs lost! 1 inch off! I'm so freaking excited. Beyond proud of myself. Summer bod, here I come.

RING OUT

I stared in wordlessness.
I just kept noticing your mouth,
and how your face just fit.

PICK-ME-UPS

1. TV5 "On n'demande qu'à en rire" Mondays to Fridays @ 1PM. I come home from class, just in time for this show. Well with the exception of Mondays. Getting my munch on and laugh on at the same time. Not all the time... some of these people really do suck. Haha. Favourites: Kev Adams, Les Lascars Gays, Olivier de Benoist.
2. 1 girl 5 days. LOVE LOVE LOVE! :) Favourites: David, Dean, Philippe, Juan, Yerxa.
3. Ray LaMontagne. Any of his records. Favourite songs (of many): Burn, Forever My Friend, Let it be me, Jolene, Trouble, Crazy (Gnarls Barkley cover). Blast his record and any day is a good one. Honestly. Literally lifts up your spirit in an instant. :)
4. Justin Vernon (Bon Iver, Deyarmond Edison, J.D. Vernon, himself). His projects are freaking amazing. Every song. Favourites: Breathe, Skinny love, Blindsided, May 27th 1999, Creature Fear.
5. Watching outdated movies that remind me of my childhood. I watched the Lizzie McGuire Movie yesterday. Hahaha, I love that movie. And then we watched My Girl on friday night.

Nights like these

Lights dimmed low, Ivory's "Goodnight Goodbye" playing in the background, lying in bed and conversations on/about various topics.

MORE THINGS

- Reading week NOW. Because then I know that I'd be done my philo paper. And I could work freely on my NATS essay and presentation.
- Purchased a camel down toggle jacket for $19.99 + tax. FREAKIN' STEAL!
- Want Spring to come, now. I'm tired of snow. Shoveling. Walking in it. And shit.
- I need a pick-me-up. 1 girl 5 gays? On ne m'demande qu'à en rire? Yeah, whenever I can spare the time : ( which at the moment is quite minimal.
- Need to dye my hair. Again, when I can spare 20+ minutes.
- I need to finish knitting shit. Hahah. I'm infamous for starting to knit something and not finishing it.......
- I need mind sleep.

The interview went well, I think.
I passed the first part of the presentation.
And I think I aced the standard interview process by answering with logical responses, being clear and rational.

Full-time job in the summer would be a dream come true. Haha, that sounds pathetic but honestly, I'd rather be doing something than nothing. And why not make MONEY.
40 hours.

Dear guy with the nice fitting pants and beautiful ringlets and jaw structure and overall swagger,
Um, you are definitely, without a doubt, incredibly attractive.
Let's be friends?

THINGS

- A random guy in the hall said good morning to me. Haha, amazing. I swear no one pays attention to you on campus. THANK YOU :)
- Chitchats and laughs and complaints about the 11 being late and bus rides avec Chloé.
- Unexpected guest! Matthieu, the alcoholic, southern, stupid american. Haha. MADE MY DAY.
- I ALMOST lost my favourite beanie. Thank goodness I realized that it was missing.
- Interview this Saturday. Soon to be a summer working money $ maker.
- Deleting old e-mails from old friends. As in, the ones I no longer talk to. No longer.

Test tomorrow, paper and presentation on Monday, paper next Thursday.
Guess who's got a date with the reference library on Friday? YEEE YOU'RE LOOKING AT HER.

I am drowning in assignments.
I am beyond worried for my nutrition course. How can I honestly be doing so bad? I hope my mark goes up with the help of my paper and presentation and work sheets.
I applied to four different summer jobs. I am aiming for TZ and TBJ. Both are "outdoors". HOWEVER, pay for one of them is sooo much better.
I WILL GET THAT ONE. I HAVE TO. I WILL.

AT THE MOMENT

* Lady pains are being a real bitch. I woke up pain in distinctive areas of my body. MY KNEES, MY UTERUS!! Hahaha. Seriously, it hurts.
* On top of that, I have an argumentative paper to write due Sunday @ 18h.
* PLUS a four chapter test. Mind you it would have been FIVE if we didn't complain to her. She's insane, in the worst way possible.
* But, my cousin's 2-year-old daughter is around for the weekend. She's the cutest! And a great distraction :)

Thank you

Today I received a little package in the mail from my childhood best friend, who now resides in France. We haven't see each other, in person, in more than 8 years (since I left Mauritius). We reconnected, through the power of Facebook, about three years ago. I suppose I should be thankful for Facebook, but I am such a hater when it comes to that subject... Anyway.
I wrote to her for Christmas. I sent her something accompanied by a card and little writings of everything we shared during our childhood.
She wrote me back with kind words, just as kind as she is. When someone goes out of their way, sacrifices a certain amount of time for me, it makes me happy. She reminded me of how we met in elementary school. We went to the same pre-school but then found each other a few years later. I was sitting on the bench, quiet as usual but calm, and she was crying because she missed her mom. She approached me and asked me if we could be friends. We instantly became attached at the hip. Funny how a simple question could later blossom into something much bigger.

Thank you Emily. You are one of the rarest, most genuine, honest and kind-hearted people I have ever met in my eighteen years of living. Thank you for your kind words about me. Thank you :)
I hope that one of these days, we'll reunite in person.

Philosophie class today: priceless.
Sparks of knowledge, new discovery and overall "WTF?!"s.
