here comes tomorrow.

Since I never really give an update on my life, I thought I'd try it.

School is going pretty good. Or, as good as one can expect with me. I'm such a hardcore procrastinator, and you all know it's true since I'm writing this instead of writing my Intro to lit. paper. I haven't been doing as well in school this term as I would like. Well, that's not completely true. I wrote 3 midterms 2 weeks ago and so far I've only gotten two back. 72% and 74%. But on the plus side, I think I did really well (as in 80+) on my Intro. to dramatic lit. midterm, and I got the highest in my Advanced Theatre class midterm-replacement assignment. Plus, I'm doing decent enough in my Intro to lit. class (although I really need to write that paper!). All in all, I think I'm doing decent enough, but I would be doing a lot better if I got off my lazy ass and did some actual work.

Reading week was 2 weeks ago. It was alright I guess. I didn't really get to sleep much since I had to work mornings (the girl who normally does them was in Ottawa so I told her I could do it for her). I didn't even see much of a difference in my paycheck which sucked, but oh well. I did have fun though. I got to hang out with a lot of people like Stephanie and Shawnté; plus I got Heather hooked on Grey's Anatomy. It was a nice break overall (except for that lack of sleep part). Work has been much better lately though. We got rid of two of the major "problem kids" and it's made all the difference. And then this past weekend was incredible. The ECMA's were held here so you know I had to hit up everything that came to town. It was a great weekend, a little sketchy at times but great none the less. The sketchyness was pretty much cancelled out though by Grey's Anatomy, haha.

My play on the other hand is sketchy at all times. Bad directorial vision. Bad set. Bad publicity. Bad everything. Not to mention that the other day at rehearsal I jumped down from the platform, which is about 2 feet off the ground, and then collapsed. My knees just gave way for some reason and it can go down as one of the most painful experiences of my life. I don't know what happened, but I think my calcium deficiency plays an important role in it. I made a doctors appointment for Monday a while ago so I'll ask him about it then. What really scares me is that they still hurt. When I woke up this morning I could barely bend them and standing up really hurt from all the pressure I was putting on them. I've been taking Advil, Tylenol and Motrin all day for the pain.

Moving to Calgary is starting to implode magnificently upon itself. It came as a big shock to me, and I'm still not really sure what I think. I could still be moving, but I could wind up staying here. It's all up in the air right now and very undecided. I'm not really sure what to feel. I suppose I could go either way, in favor for moving, or for staying. No matter what though I'm still moving to Toronto as soon as I graduate from school and setting my plan in motion.

I think I'll end here. I'll try and provide "real" updates more often. Oh, but before I go I thought I'd mention 3 things. The first is that I bought a digital camera on Monday; I've now officially become a camera whore. The second is that I'm not disappointed with Apple's announcements today (unlike some people), but I think the iPod Hi-Fi should be priced at $299 USD instead. The high price tag doesn't stop me from wanting one though, haha. And thirdly, I thought I'd post the txt messages exchanged between myself and my friend Derek today. I thought they were hysterical, but I'll let you be the judge.

Me: Hey derek, get some talent you hack.
Derek: Hey rene the talent police called your wanted for questioning.
Derek: Hey rene striped sweaters were so 1998.
Me: Hey derek, the jerk store called, they're running out of you.
Derek: Hey rene the crap store called they were wondering if you are coming later.
Me: Hey derek, the zoo called. The ape wants his ass (which you've been using for a face) back.
Derek: Hey rene tignish called they were wondering when u r coming home.

The game "Big Brother" can turn on a dime.
As it turns out, real life can also turn on a dime.

Oh, and Saint Nick is out. Steve Jobs is the new Santa Claus. Seriously, his bag of goodies is filled with things that I'm not embarrassed to salivate over.

make up the breakdown.

Point form once again, because I'm lazy:

-Come on Team Canada! Pull it together! For crying out loud...

-I love Grey's Anatomy. So much.

-I go back to school tomorrow. I didn't do any of my readings during reading week, how ironic.

-I'm really starting to look forward to moving. We have an approximate leave date which is good, now to find a way to tell my boss...

-I still haven't called U of C yet. Yikes.

-I've come to the conclusion I have a thing for superheroes. Clark Kent, Max "X5 - 452" Guevara, Jonny and Sue Storm, etc. I pretty much want to be a superhero, haha.

-I'm still undecided as to whether or not I should upgrade my current digital camera, or just buy a new one.

-I didn't sleep at all during the break. Woe to me.

waiting for your letter.

Well this was all over LiveJournal a little while ago, and now the craze has caught on to Blogger, and who am I to stop a trend?

I would really appreciate it if you guys did the Nohari Window for me. It's the one with the negative adjectives. I would love it if everyone was truthful; and after that has sufficiently made me depressed, I'll need everyone to do the Johari Window. Like I said, I would really appreciate it if everyone did it, and did it with honest answers.

look at those cavemen go.

So our Yearbooks finally came in!
I know that several of you will not be able to see it for sometime, so I took it upon myself to scan a couple of pages. I thought about scanning the whole thing, but then I though "Nah!...I'm too lazy." Plus there's 120 pages in it, and that would take too long. So think of these as morsels to wet your appetite until you see the real thing; and besides, you still want to be surprised don't you?

smile like you mean it.

Happy anniversary.
I find it hard to believe we've been in Canada for 15 years.

end of the world party.

I think that if my life were any more dull, it'd be going backwards.

caught by the window.

Holy crap, UPEI is starting to become quite the hotbed for media attention. First, we had the David Weale controversy a few weeks ago, and now we have to deal with The Cadre controversy. That's right folks, The Cadre, is the first newspaper in all of Canada to print the cartoons of Mohammed, and now UPEI is at the center of media blitz once again. On the plus, I got interviewed twice for Television and once for Radio about it.

back to bedlam.

Point form, because I'm lazy:

1. I just ate a Big Mac for the first time since I worked at McDonald's back in grade 10. It was delicious but now I feel gross.

2. I hate Smallville. "The Proposal" episode made me all depressed.

3. I have to finish my Philosophy assignment.

4. After that it's Grey's Anatomy!

5. Tomorrow I have to study for my midterms, finally memorize my script, go to class, go to work, go to rehearsal, as well as meet up with Shawnté.

6. That script is looking pretty sketchy since we're not allowed to have our books with us at Tuesday's rehearsal and I still know nothing.

7. A pompous, arrogant, yet really respected 4th year Honours English student said he liked my writing, ideas, and that I have potential and should continue to write.

8. I said "yes" to moving to Calgary.

descended like vultures.

And I feel like everything in the immediate (and perhaps distant) future, depends on a simple 'yes' or 'no'. If only coming to that conclusion were as simple...except deep in my heart I already know the answer.

healthy in paranoid times.

So incase you missed it, come this April I might get to meet Coldplay! Keep your fingers crossed for me.
