Shake My Booties

is not always a fun road to travel down. When thinking about my most recent trip to the hospital on Monday, my first migraine trip without my parents, I feel different. Missy came with me and as I called my parents I knew they weren’t going to be here to rub my back and sing me through the pain. I know that I am growing up and becoming more of an adult but I still miss those times when I had my parents around all the time. I still get to be around them when I go home to visit,  but it’s just not the same.

I went to the hospital Sunday night because I had an extremely bad migraine that had not gone away even with my normal migraine medications. Missy came with me, thank the gods she was there because I would not have been able to do it by myself. I was a wreck. I guess I have been under more stress than I thought with everything thats going on right now. And the migraine is my body’s way of telling me to chill out and find some way to get the stress off.

After that lovely ordeal, with a pissy cabbie on the way back and the nurse having issues with my IV, I slept in on Monday to give my body some time to heal. I was still half high and groggy all of Monday due to the meds.

Today is Tuesday and I’ve been feeling somewhat off and emotional today. I hate having emotions, LOL. They mess me up. And of course, OF COURSE, I had to go watch an emotional movie that just wrecked me even more. I watched Marley and Me. It broke my heart at the end (for those of you who haven’t seen it and don’t want to know the ending, skip this next part) when they had to put Marley down. It reminded me of when we had to put my dog down last year and I cried. Yes, I cried. And I hated every minute of the tears. It was such a hard thing to lose Bert. She (yes she Bert stands for Alberta… no we didn’t name her, we got her from one of my dad’s friends) was a beautiful black lab, and was as dumb as a door nail. She was getting very old when she got cancer. There wasn’t anything that we could do except put her down. She was to old for us to even think of getting chemo done for her. Why prolong her suffering? She also had arthritis pretty bad. So we out her to rest and we were all sad. I still expect to hear her running to the door when MM comes home sometimes. I know she is rolling around in a mud puddle somewhere right now, grinning her goofy grin and looking for a stick to chase.

Then after that, I read Sam’s blog entry about her wedding. It sounded so beautiful that I almost cried AGAIN! Really, this crying thing needs to stop. It’s getting out of hand.

Also, I forgot to blog about the trip Missy and I made to the ROM on Saturday. It was fantastic!! I couldn’t believe how awesome it is now that the new changes have been made. The exterior alone looks fabulous. And all of the sections, new and old, again I have to say fabulous! There is one section that is just completely devoted to gems and rocks. Beautiful, shiny, perfect pieces of Mother Earth. Missy and I took about 300 or so pictures, I know ridiculous. But we both had our new cameras to try out so we did. Mine eventually died on me but hers kept going thankfully.

Ok so that is it for now, I am going to go lie down and watch some tv and talk to my man, who is so precious to me. I adore you baby! *sends you all the kisses and snuggles in the world*

Later days!

until the end of the semester. Not because of classes but because of my roommate. I asked her if she could refrain from having people over this weekend since I have a ton of homework to get done. Yesterday I could understand her having Creepy over for a bit because me and Missy went to the ROM. But today? today she has no excuse. Guess who showed up at 11 am?? CREEPY!!! FML. So I’ve decided that since she won’t listen when I ask her politely, or even when I get absolutely pissed off at her, I’m just going to ignore her and not talk to her anymore. With all the times I have asked her if she could not have someone over and she had them over anyways (even when I was extremely sick or, like this weekend, had tons of homework to get done). So I am done with her. She needs to learn to have some consideration for other people or at some point in life shes going to fuck something up that she can’t fix.

The past 2 weeks I have had 1 day when Creepy hasn’t been over here, blasting her tv (which in turn causes her to blast her own music, yes at the same time, so she can hear it above the tv). 1 day!! I’ve been polite, not said anything, but today is just fucking ridiculous. Seriously? You can’t go 1 day without seeing him? Really? FML. I swear she is obsessed, and not in a good way. But as soon as school is done I won’t have to deal with her anymore.

And poor Missy. Last night, apparently Shorty forgot her key here, when Shorty came back I was already asleep. I was out by a little after 10 pm (I was exhausted) and Shorty came home at 11. Apparently Shorty was knocking on our door and I didn’t answer (sleeping), so she ended up going to Missy’s door and banging on it asking if Missy wanted to go downstairs with her for a “smoke” (that is in quotations because she just didn’t want to go downstairs by herself to get a new room key). Missy was just getting ready to go to bed when Shorty knocked on her door (and let me tell you, both me and Missy were hurting all over from walking so much yesterday at the museum). Apparently Missy was non too impressed. She went with her but gave her a bit of a guilt trip. I mean really, you’re almost 20, you can go downstairs and get a key yourself.

I am soooo pissed off today as you can tell, and to make things better I have barely talked to Kai for the last couple of days because he has been hanging with his friends and he bought a new computer. I completely understand hanging with his friends since they are gone away to school a lot, and the new computer (because it’s a new toy to play with ) but yesterday he said we could talk on the phone when he got back and he didn’t get back… so no phone time for me. Boo.

Ok I think I’m done for now, after I’ve done some homework I will write about the trip to the ROM.

Later days!

I am going to be a very busy girl. Tomorrow I’m going to the ROM (Royal Ontario Museum) with Missy. I am so excited about going because I haven’t been since they finished the renovations. And, according to Missy, they are currently hosting their Egyptian exhibit, which is baically the only reason why I go there. The Egyptian exhibit is my favourite one, I can’t get enough.We will both be taking our cameras and taking lots of pictures, I even asked Missy if I could play around with her SLR camera. I have wanted to play around with one for a while now and now I have access to one .

After I get back from the ROM I will be sitting my ass down and doingd a SHITLOAD of homework. I have 3 assignments I have to do for my Friday mornings class because I haven’t done the last 3 due to sickness and other issues. After those are done I have an assignment for my Writing for Newspapers class, it’s a feature story, and that is due Monday morning. And then I have a photo assigment for my Photojournalism class. Ugh. So basically the ROM is the only kind of excursion I am going to have this weekend. I have also decided, if I actually get into the mood, to start packing up some things to take home with me Easter weekend on breaks from homework. Easter weekend signals the last 2 weeks of school, I figured that since I am getting a ride form my grandparents who have a minivan and more room than my mom’s car, I will take some things home with me. Things like all of my books, my night-table, winter clothes, things like that so it’s less I have to take home on the actual move-out date. It would just make life so much easier.

And I am seriously thinking about making a vlog but I have no idea what I would say. LOL. I just don’t think I am THAT interesting that people would want to watch me blab on about my life. I will ponder this a little more and see how it goes.

Okay so thats all I have for now, will probably write more tomorrow after I get back from the ROM.

Later days!

and posting. I know I haven’t done so for quite a while and I actually feel kind of bad that I’ve been neglecting my poor little blog. In my defence, I had an extremely long week last week and weekend.

So, last week was busy. I was running around getting newspaper meeting and homework done. Then I was packing on Friday and going home. I had such a blast this last weekend. Not only did I turn 20 but I had an awesome birthday. It started off by me getting up at 930-1000 and getting ready for an entire day of shopping! I went out first with my parents and brother and got some very nice stuff… here is what I got with them:

After shopping with my family I came home, rested for about 30 minutes and then went back out shopping with Kai. Which was almsot as fun as shopping with my folks. When I went out with him I got a few new shirts, new makeup, a new purse and a nightshirt… FINALLY. I have searched everywhere for a nightshirt that looks nice and hadn’t been able to find one. When Missy and I went shopping last week I searched and couldn’t find one. I finally found one at La Vie En Rose and I love it.The reason why I was looking for one is that it gets really hot in my room at night so a shirt and pants/shorts still makes me die of heat, so the night shirt is a perfect compromise.

My Fancy New Purse!

My Fav New Shirt

I was soooo exhausted after the day of shopping. After shopping we went out for dinner and I ate like a pig. I’m not joking. I had a 10 oz steak and french fries and, because I scarfed down the steak, I could baely eat any of my fries. I was soo full. Then I got my present from my brother (my parents got me my shoes and my jacket for my present and Kai bought me a few shirts and my purse for my gift) which was a $40 gift certificate for the mall.I kind of wished he gave it to me earlier on so I could have used it while shopping but whatever.

I dragged Kai back out shopping after dinner and I bought a new book. We then went to Futureshop because I wanted to pick up a new mouse for my Macbook and wanted to find a lap-desk that I could use when I’m lying in bed with my laptop so it doesn’t fall all over the place. We spent almso an hour in there, I had my mouse after 15 minutes of looking, but Kai was looking at a new computer. After Futureshop we went back to Kai’s house were I then proceeded to almost fall asleep a million times I was exhausted, I couldn’t help it.

It was the best day of my life! Everything I love, shopping, shoes, purses, makeup, was included and I was soo happy I got to have my day.

So that was my excitement for the weekend, Sunday morning I was completely wiped. I woke up, packed, left. When I got to London I met up with Shorty, her mom and Creepy and started the ride home. And it was at that point that I had realised that my cell phone was gone. I started panicking and freaking out. I finally got a hold of my parents and found out that my cellphone had fallen out in my mom’s car. So they mailed it out yesterday and I should be getting it tomorrow. I can’t wait, I feel naked without my cell.

So that is my post, I am done and now I’m going to get ready for class where we will be starting to learn about creating our websites .

Later days!
