11:45 in the G-Spot

Kat, you are deffinately on the right track with your getting buzzed at home and then blogging methods. I am too much of a nerd and pass up going out to stay home and do work way too often, so maybe I should start keeping some wine in the house to drink when I realize I should have gone out!

Boy, I wish I had an interesting life like you guys with your ocean sightings and kitten purchases and...stories from the States! Speaking of which, check out this Bush quote: http://www.dumpalink.com/media/1128506422

I've been spending my days on campus doing the Soduko, Jumble, and Crossword puzzles and drinking coffee...and occasionally doing some work! My classes are actually pretty interesting. My Modern Political Ideologies prof is really though-provoking and manages to make Poli-Sci interesting at 8:30 in the morning! I'm used to looking at things in a pretty black and white fasion, and he makes me look at things in a totally different perspective. Basic concepts like the definition of freedom and Communism and the like. And then there's my Gender and Environment class where I am surrounded by lots of girls who believe notions that men are destroying women's rights to enter certain industries. And Business History where my teacher appears to be completely cracked out because......he.........talks like.............this..............and......has a........massive belly............and.....looks like a mouse with............a.....beard. HE'S SO SLOW!!! The Industrial Revolution isn't exciting as it is, let along listening about it at an incredibly slow pace!!!

Apparently my house in Toronto is ready to be put on the market. We're having an open house on Sunday and I think our house now represents the model home in Arrested Development. All of our personal belongings are gone and in are generic pictures and different seating arrangements. It's like I'm not going home to my house, but to a shell of my house's former self. I'm going to see the inside of my new house for the first time on Saturday afternoon. I'm most excited to see the backyard because we finally have a deck! I mean, we have a very small one in our house now, but it looks onto a parking lot and the projects so it's not the nicest view. This deck can fit more than two people and looks onto our backyard! There are only three rooms in the house, but both of my sisters should be moved out by September (marriage and the other is moving our before marriage) so there won't be any cramping. I'm actually getting a little giddy right now just thinking of the location. Instead of hearing sirens every ten minutes (no joke...the sound of sirens is like the theme song for our area) we get to hear....sirens! But these are from the firehouse a block and a half away. Not police car sirens chasing down a car/person.

Well, I went to the Manor for the first time the other night, but I didn't even know we were going there! My housemate Greg asked if I wanted to grab a late drink (it was 11:30) so I figured why not! We got in the car and I asked which bar we were going to and he gave me this smug look and then I saw two of the other guys come out of the house and run to the car and I didn't even need him to tell me where we were going. I almost didn't go, but I figured I'd be going at SOME point over the year. And it really wasn't as classy as I figured! :p It was amateur night and these girls were just so...wrong...and should not have been on stage. They were just too young and should not be doing what they were doing. I wasn't 'complaining', but...well I don't want to turn this into an R-rated blog, so just imagine what the most explicit things five girls on stage could do and that is what they did. But hey, no cover! Oh, and there was a herse in the parking lot. I really didn't have anything to say about that...

A song just came on that I think you'd all like: "There Goes The Fear", by The Doves.

I had my first tennis match last Sunday against a guy who drove an hour and a half just to make the match. He said he didn't want to forfeit the $25 by missing the game, and yet I'm sure he spent over $30 in gas! So I felt sort of bad and didn't play my hardest for the first four games (out of eight) and eventually found myself in a tie. So then I decided to try and finally won after nearly two and a half hours of tennis in the heat. So I'm 2-0 now! Bring on Federer!

Hey I just heard a siren! Memories of home...

I'm heading home this weekend to watch some hockey with the guys and hit up the reference library. Is it sad that the biggest worry in my life right now is deciding which group of hockey fans to watch the game with? I worry over the silliest things!

Can't wait to see people next weekend. Sarah and Remi, we'll be sure to drink the equivalent of what you two would have had to make up for your absense! Orrrr you could hop on a plane...
