you are loved (don't give up).

And suddenly, I have faith in the music industry once more. Thank you Mr. Groban, thank you.
I just wish I had heard your new song last week when I first heard about it, rather than now (ah, my procrastination strikes again). I eagerly await the November 7th release of your new album.

here it goes again.

All Good Things (Come to an End) or so Nelly Furtado ft. Chris Martin say. I guess they're right.

Flames to dust; Lovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end?


Why do they? Anyway. I'm doing my physics assignment (as per usual). As it turns out the Moon moves an average of 3 cm's away from Earth every year. Scientists speculate that around 4 billion years ago the Moon was half as far away as it is now. That means that over time, the Earth will no longer have a moon because it'll have moved so far away that the Earth's gravitational pull with no longer keep it in sync with us. The Moon is actually responsible for a lot. It's the reason the days are 24 hours long. Back when it was half as far away the days were longer. It's a complicated scientific process that explains this, and even though I now unfortunately know it, I have no desire to reguritate it. But in another 4 billion years when the moon is 50% further then it is now, the days will be shorter. Of course, none of this matters because by the time it does that the Sun will have grown to the size of a Red Giant and swallowed up Mercury and Venus. Earth may get swallowed up or we may get thrown into an even wider orbit and escape it (an orbit roughly 1.7 AU's in size). None the less none of this even matters because one day the Sun will die, and the planets will just start to drift aimlessly throughout space. Of course we'll all be dead by then, so it really shouldn't even register in our brains. So why bother studying it? Yes, as humans we will all die; thus fulfilling the age old proverb that all good things - in this case life - really do come to an end. What an existance we now lead....

Oh, ps, btw, bff? I got the job at the Library. Yay for extra money.

sunday morning.

Hmmmm. This post is gonna be scattered, just so you know in advance.

School is eating me. I don't think I've ever had so much stuff to do in my entire life. Bio lab reports, Bio lab quizzes, Bio midterms, Physics assignment, Physics midterm AND a Physics paper topic, English midterms, papers and essays. Ahhhh!!!!!!!! I cannot believe all these things are due in such a short time, or so close together.

I'm absolutely terrified that I won't have friends in Calgary. That's my biggest fear concerning next year. If I do move out there (which I'm 97% sure I will), I'm so scared I won't be able to make friends. The school and classes are around 6.6x larger than at the U Dot, so I go from classes of about 50 to 330. That's 330 people I won't know. How will I ever become friends with any of them? And it's not like I'd be living in res or anything so I wouldn't be forced to meet new people.

I have the strongest urge to apply at Indigo, but I had my interview at the Library yesterday and it went really well. If they don't call me back then I'll apply there. Although, I already have a job at the Spa, so it may be hard to work around it. I could just leave the Spa, but I really like it there. It's the slackest job I've ever had in my life.

I feel like taking all my income tax money I'll be getting in April-ish and using it to go to the Dominican or something. That would be such a waste of money, but I still like the idea. Although I kind of want to go to Europe as well. Sigh. It's not like I'll wind up doing any of those things after school so I should just stop right now.

I can't stop listening to the new J. Timberlake album. It's all I've been listening to in the car. Or singing in my head for that matter. Except when the song Vans creeps in.

I need to get a new cellphone. Mine is so buggy and just an overall POS. But since Rogers completely and utterly raped me it'll cost like 200 bucks. I'm now looking into eBay possibilities. I wish Apple would hurry up and release an iPhone.

I kind of wish I had gone to Sloan. Or at the very least the before party at the 1-1-7. Life is pretty much passing me by, haha.

I'm so ridiculously ecstatic for my birthday, which is now in exactly 2 weeks. Actually, I'm more pumped for the party on Friday to commemerate the event. Actually, to tell the truth I'm a little worried about the party. There's like gonna be like 100 people there, and I'm positive that even though they would all have me in common, not everyone will get along. I have a feeling drama is gonna happen.

Over the course of 2006 (which has been incredible, I'll just interject with) I've made an average of 1 blog post every 3.3 days. I've made an average of 1 LiveJournal post every 44 days. That's not very balanced.

I should have gone to bed 1 hour and 42 minutes ago. Ugh.

specialist.

How come the government hasn't released a new Heritage Minute commercial in a long time? Those things are classic. Who among us doesn't love them? Or smell the occasional piece of burnt toast? I know I do.

put your records on.

Oh man. It just feels so good to be able to watch my show again.

I've seriously missed Grey's Anatomy. Seriously.

I love it. It's so good and makes me feel so much better after watching it. It's like having an old friend come back from a trip. An old friend that always makes you feel better.

I cannot wait until next week for another new episode.

Oh man, it's so good.

white daisy passing.

So I've run out of room in my closet for clothes. And yet, I still have nothing to wear. I wish someone would just give me a platinum credit card and tell me to go wild, and that it was on them. I need new clothes like Paris Hilton needs talent - desperately.

And I decided last night that even though Physics is kicking my ass, there is no other class I'd want to take. Seriously. It occurred to me last night that I'm really enjoying the material. Minus the math. And the lectures, because they're pointless. In any event, I'm still going to complain about it. But now you now that it comes from a place of love.

I was thinking about getting a blue 4GB iPod nano, but then I realized I have no money. Plus, I tried playing around with my library the other day and had a hella good time trying to find tracks to cut. Yeah. This was a pointless paragraph, aren't you glad you read it?

And that's all folks. Over and out.

wonderwall.

So this must be what it feels like to get your ass handed to you. It's a Saturday night, and I'm staying in to work on math assignments. Why oh why did I ever decide to take a second year physics course? Oh that's right, because I LACK COMMON SENSE! Ugh. It just took me close to an hour to do part A of question 1. I have a feeling this is going to be a long night.

Sigh. In the words of someone very near and dear to my heart, what a life we now lead...

that thing you do!

BAH!!!

Sorry for the lack of updates. My bad.

Frosh week was unreal. I think the leaders had more fun that the froshers. Haha. It was good times. And you know how I was excited for school? Well I'm not anymore. I hate it. I'm like 3 chapters behind in Biology, on top of that the prof is new (and not even a real prof. I may add - she's just a grad student with her masters). The original prof is in rehab for alcoholism according to the campus gossip, so the new chick has no idea what she's doing. Class today was 30 minutes short because she zoomed through the chapter on Mitosis. Ugh. She doesn't even cover the entire chapters. She does a little bit and that's it. And we won't even touch the lab section.

On top of that I showed up late to my physics/astronomy class on Monday. I knew there would be math involved because it was a 2nd year physics course, but since 1st year physics isn't a pre-req I thought I'd be safe. I was wrong. I show up late, and the prof is just flipping through equation after equation on the projector. We know have 2 assignments due for next class. I'm dead meat.

And then I have my English courses.... we won't even go there.

I think it's fine being in one department. If you're in Arts you get used to reading books and writing papers; and, if you're in Sciences then you get used to science-y stuff. But I have come to the conclusion that they're separated for a reason. Having labs to go to, assignments to do and equations to learn and then books to read and responses to write is TOO MUCH. School's been in for 1 week and I'm swamped already. And then you have to factor in work and rehearsals and there just aren't enough hours in the day. Bah. So that, my friends, is why I'm not going out this weekend, and instead I'm camping out in the library.

The only highlights this week contains are Breanna's birthday (which was last night), Grey's Anatomy season 2 on DVD (which you all know I bought the day it came out because I'm obsessed), calling Reese on Thursday, and breakfest at Cora's on Friday with Derek. The highlights aren't bad, but school is an automatic -700 points, so that kills the week. Bah humbug!

Sigh. I know y'all wish you had my glamorous life.

edit// Is it wrong I want one of the new iPods? They're so super cheap as well. I've already justified it mentally. I just wish I could justify it to my wallet. Sigh...

hips don't lie.

I just did a quick Google and as it turns out, Hips Don't Lie just spent it's 16th week at #1 on the World United chart. That's the longest running #1 of all time around the world, beating the record set by Cher in 1998 with Believe. So the song not only has the distinction of being the most played song in US radio history (played 9, 582 times in a week) , the fastest selling digital song of all time, the largest 1 week sales tally for a digital song (270, 000 in it's first week or about 1 copy every 2.2 seconds), the #1 song of the year worldwide, and joining the elite club where it's gone to #1 in almost every country it's charted in (that's almost 40 countries - fellow club members include the Beatles, Madonna and Michael Jackson); but it can now add longest running world wide #1 to it's belt.

Yeah. I think my obession with this song has to end.

hideaway.

Hmmmm. Am I actually excited to be back in school? Weird...
I'm going to blame FROSH week for making me pumped.

On a side note, I changed my layout and upgraded to the new Blogger. I think I like it.

baba o'riley.

I HATE ROGERS WIRELESS!!!!!!!


FSV,DMSZFHJZ VLKASDG VLKDKLFJHGLDJHLJBVLJBVBV KSALGFLA

They are seriously making my life a living hell right now. Insane bill amounts. Bills I never even recieved. Account run arounds! AHHHH!!!!!!!!!! I am THIS close to calling them and cancelling my account, I don't care about the pay out I'd have to make at this point. Why did I not just wait until I was 18 to get a cell phone? ALL of this is because I got my phone 2 FREAKING WEEKS BEFORE MY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You know what else? Their service SUCKS ASS on this island! There. I said it. ROGERS SUCKS ASS ON PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND. Everyone else chats away just peachy keen on their phone, I'm the only who gets "No Service" error messages. BAAAAAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On top of that, the internet in this stupid house is so SKETCHY. I've been sitting next to the modem all day and it just randomly shuts down and has errors reconnecting. I HATE THE DIGITAL AGE!

champagne supernova.

Didn't feel like editing the last post, so I decided to create a new one. Easy hatahs.

Anyway, my iPod is dead. The hard drive went caput. I think I dropped it one, two thirty times too many. Plus the fact that I was never really nice and abused it for several hours each day may have contributed. Oh, and then there was the constant reformating and erasing so that I could put entire TV shows on it. I'm sad. Should I pay the 40 bucks(?) in S&H for Apple to send me a new one or should I buy a shiny new 60GB video one?

Hmm, me thinks I need to start taking better care of my possessions...


Hmmm. It's working now. It knows I was blogging about it and has now decided to start working. I'm actually a little afraid to use it incase it craps out on me again.

where'd you go?

Wow. It's now September. Where did the time go?

Where'd you go?
I miss you so,
Seems like it's been forever,
That you've been gone.
