Doesn't it feel good to step on crunchy frost now, instead of the slush and mud that's been on the ground for the past month and a bit? I'm definitely enjoying it, even though I don't like winter...global warming is really starting to scare me
Other than the weather, there isn't much to say about the goings on in my life School has started up and I already hate it. My classes are soooooo boring, and I just can't seem to get into school mode. My break was definitely way too short! Speaking of the break, my new year's was a good time. I worked until about 10ish, then went down to Absinthe with Mikey, Christine, Chris and his friends. It was surprisingly packed, and they played good music. There aren't many highlights of the night for me...except that I was glad Michael made it out, because he usually works new year's eve. A few girls from school started this website www.thegalvanizelab.blogspot.com where they post pictures of cool spots in Hamilton, trying to make it seem like a much more lively and cultural city, rather than a dirty, industrial hole (like I see it). Anyway, we made it on the site haha
 HA unflattering shots of the both of us, but there you go
annnnnnnnd I don't know what else to say. Oh yes, applying to schools SUCKS.

Everyone should read "The Life of Pi." I remembered how much I love to read after this book. I hate how school has given me almost no time to do something I used to enjoy so much.

Wow, it's been a while since I've been on here! But I, like many others, have been more obsessed with facebook recently than with livejournal. Does anyone even read this anymore? I don't know, but I thought I'd update anyway. I hope everyone had a good Christmas! I went to Mikey's for Christmas Eve dinner, but I was sick so I couldn't enjoy it as much as I wanted. I had an insanely stuffed up nose, and I had to keep getting up from the table to blow my nose, and that was pretty embarassing. Then, he gave me a Tylenol cold, but we didn't realize that it was Nighttime, so I got drowsy on top of everything haha. I couldn't even taste the food. Christmas day I felt so much better though, so I was happy about that. The most exciting gift I got from my parents was a digital camera! I can't wait to take a ton of my own pictures when I go out now, instead of always bothering my friends to send pics to me haha. That night I got together with Nina for our gift exchange and that was fun! Other highlights from the break so far:
- shopping at Square One for boxing day. It was pure insanity. People were honking at each other in the crowded parking lot, in the stores people were throwing clothes on the floor as they looked through piles of stuff....there was such hostility! I actually had an unsuccessful shopping trip....i bought like one shirt, I just couldn't bring myself to sift through the mess other people had created.
- Sam's Jack Astor's Christmas party! We got to dress up and eat good food and drink wine....but I couldn't stay too late because the next day I had my first exam (which went so badly....no one finished after 3 hours...I don't want to think about it)
- going on a double date to Absinthe with Mikey and Christine and her boyfriend Chris a few weeks ago. I went there last Wednesday again with Christine, Emily, Kandra and Christina and made a fool of myself trying to parallel park in front of the building while everyone stared and laughed at us haha.
- Terris' party where I saw all of Corey's friends....definitely brought back some memories that I didn't necessarily want to relive again. Thankfully Corey himself wasn't there because I don't even know what I would say to him if he was Afterwards, we checked out the Embassy, and let me just say it was an experience. I had a laugh, but I won't be going back there again
- getting together with Sam at Starbucks to exchange presents and having a good talk
- seeing Casino Royale and Blood Diamond with Mikey
- dressing up all Christmas-y at work for a contest. The most festive person gets $100 bucks! The winner will be announced at our Christmas party (on January 17th! how random) I tried to go all out, but there was always someone with more than me, so I know I didn't win for sure, but it was still fun
That's really all I can remember. New Year's is coming up and I have no definite plans as of yet. I know I have to work but til when I don't know. Hopefully not too late! I also really need to get going on the whole application process for next year. I just don't know if I should wait until all my first semester marks from 4th year are in...but that might be cutting it too close to the deadline. Ugh, I don't know. Why does it have to be so complicateddddddd

I can't believe school is almost over.....I still have an essay due ugh. And my exams are so spread out. Like always, my last exam is on like the last day of exams.....I NEVER get lucky and get finished early. poooo
Other than school and work, I had a pretty good week last week! in addition to the Hour taping, on Wed. mikey and I went to the cutest restaurant in Burlington called Olivé on Brant. I highly recommend it. It's italian, but the building itself is circular...and instead of chairs you sit in these huge antique couch things. It was really cool...and the food itself was amazing but not expensive at all!
Thennnnnnnn on Thursday I finally got to visit Nina and see her new place! That was quite exciting :) We met up at Starbucks, had a good time catching up, then like right after we got approached by this OCAD student who was doing a project on eyes so he got right up in our faces and took pictures of our eyeballs. it was so weird hahah. At first I got excited because I thought he was some photographer from a magazine doing one of those segments where they take pictures of cool dressed people on the streets......but i was sadly disappointed haha
OH YA! in starbucks, we saw Amanda Bynes! she walked in and got a coffee by herself...she kept looking over at us and i totally caught her eye once or twice haha
That night, Jenni came down, and we all went to this bar/club called The Brunswick House. Some pictures now because all text is boring!
