Today I went to the nait orientation which just basically gives you the low-down of the school.I'm excited for it!They listed some of the events that the... student union (?) is putting on.
And they have movies every tuesday in the theatre, and live music at the pub every...thursday.and sometime in october they're having a pirate party on the edmonton queen boat!so awesome.
uh,it was kinda of boringbut i am happy i went, and i got a water bottle. I needed a water bottle :)
'cept we didn't get to tour my buliding. it's so far from everything else. I'm so upset about that.
It's like on the opposite end from where chelsey's classes are. SIGH. oh well.
otherwise, tonight allan and i made dinner.chicken, with salad & mashed potatoesI didn't cook the potatoes long enough, but they were still good.and my cheesecake that i made yesterday
.....fluffly cheesecake.SO GOOD. mmmm.
and this weather is starting to freak me out.
but the radio's just saying powers out and it's just a really big thunderstorm.
Storm I can deal with. nothing more.

Drivers ed from 6-9, the usual.
Tuesday May 12,
Toys from 530-9. And Brandie put me in baby. Just me and Tamara, on the floor. Man, that was horrible. I don't know anything so I basically sat at the back desk because all I knew was how to do a registry. hahaha.
Wednesday May 13,
Driving with my teacher was pretty good. Learned uphill and downhill parking.
After that had my last in class lesson. Wrote the final, and passed with 96%! One wrong! After that Adriana and I went to Filthys, got wasted off $10, and then to Steel Wheels, obviously. What a great night.
Thrusday May 14,
Applied at Fossil. Twisted goods from 11-6. Ugh.
Friday May 15,
Had an interview with Fossil at 5pm, didn't go so well. Oh well. I don't really like bussing to west ed anyways.
Then I met up with Meghann and we did a little shopping.
Saturday May 16,
Twisted from 930-2. Boring. Got some Bonzai :)
and now I'm about to go to Milestones with Tamara, Sonia and Jerilyn for Sonia's birthday :)

may 9 cont'd:
so, we went to those show homes right? they were so nice. the first one was by far the best. the others were nice but not really.. that great to live in. if that makes sense. they were set up really nice, but not practical.
the first one, my dad said was like a really nice apartment put into a house. it was all very open.
you walk into the front door and to the right was a grand piano with a big circle red carpet on the ground and these two really nice chairs. above the chairs there was a little fake porch type this upstairs with a window, almost like you're outisde. then behind that was a dining table with this really neat light above the center and on the back wall there was a fire place. if you walked around that fire place there was a little library area with a nice chair. and across from that was this awesome couch with a tv and another little fire place. next was the kitchen, with walls of storage and a neat little table attached to the sink and the centre counter.
behind the kitchen was a storage area and beside that were two giant closets for coats and such and that brings you back to the front door.
right in front of you are the stairs heading upstairs, they were glass. kinda scary to walk on but oh well. you get upstairs and you see a long leather couch in front of a glass wall. across from the couch is a tv, and a microwave and coffee maker. little upstairs area. go into the next room and it's the bedroom. king size bed and across from the bed is the biggest bathroom ever. with a tub in the middle, two sinks, a vanity, and walk in shower with no doors and a bench inside and the tub's water.. comes from the ceiling. past the bathroom is the closet, which could have been bigger seeing the size of the bathroom, but was huge none the less. behind the closet is the laundry room.
now, back to that little room with the leather couch upstairs. behind that glass wall is an exercise room. which is a weird place to put it, with a glass wall and all but it works, all good. and the beside that is an office with a sky painted in this cirlce on the ceiling, and books and a desk and such. and that's what the little porch was attached to.
now back downstairs you've got stairs to the basement. once you get down them there's this really looooww couch. but it was long, and you kinda sit on it and it's basically like a pillow on the ground with a back rest for movies. with shelves and a microwave and a little fridge.
around the corner are two kids rooms and a bathroom. and then a games room. big pillows, comfy chairs low to the ground a 5 tvs on the wall with a ps3 and xbox 360. brick walls a graffiti. haha.
i love that house.
ANYWAYS.
after that we went to dinner & i had a long island iced tea. mmm. but the pasta i ordered was oh my god sooooo spicy. and the lady didn't tell me that, and it didn't say that in the menu,
so i took it back and just got spaghetti.
then we went to rics grill for dessert and i had a chocolate cake and a b-52 to drink.
i also wore my betsey heals, and i didn't break my ankle!
may 10:
mothers day!
i gave my mom my gift, necklace and earrings and a shoe shopping adventure.
my dad and brother gave her this chocolate spa thing... so awesome.
AND it's a mother daughter thing, so i get to go! i'm so excited!
then i worked from 11-6. epic fail. sundays suck hard now.
after that rachel picked me up from work at we went to timmys and just chilled.

Okay so.
Let's see here, what did I do this week.
Sunday:
Grandma's 80th Birthday. We went to Leduc at her old folks home and rented out a room there and had cake and watched this slide show of all these pictures of her. There were old photos from when she was a little girl, it was so nice. I had to go around and take pictures of everyone because my dad had some of his uncles and cousins there that he hasn't seen in years. Hahah.
Monday:
I believe I did..nothing. And then I had drivers ed from 6-9. Which was not very eventful. Go figure.
Tuesday:
I went to Whyte ave with Adriana and picked up my bowl. Hers was ready but mine wasn't. Ugh. I was so angry. But then I went back when we were leaving whyte and it was done. I bought a little clutch bag for the bar (which I later found out it's not very handy). After that I went to work at Brandie told me about this hair curler thing that makes your hair wavy! I was so excited.
Wednesday:
I had driving lessons from 3-5 and then drivers ed from 6-9. My teacher is pretty nice, and he's not that hard to understand in person. Haha. We just drove all around the neighbourhood and worked on turning and hand over hand and all that jazz. And then I got to drive to Toys!
Thursday:
I worked at Twisted Goods, 11-6, with Meghann. We didn't really do anything, as usual. And then Lisa came to give us a mini staff meeting because we couldn't make it to the staff meeting at the end of April. And we got mystery shopped and failed miserably.. Whatever. haha Oh I also bought that curler that makes your hair wavy. I looovveee it.
Friday:
Happy 17 Months. <3
I had to do my chores before Meghann came over that night, so I did that and then bussed to Sheer Bliss because I was going to get my hair cut. Didn't really do anything different just kinda trimmed it up and made it all clean and gave me side bangs. Yup, I stuck with the side bangs for once.
After that I came home and continued to clean. Meghann came over at about 6:30 and we went to Red Brick and got some pizza, mmm. Then we kinda slowly started getting ready for the evening. Chelsey and Adriana came over, and then around 9:45pm we headed to Whyte.
Went to Lucky 13 and kinda just sat there waiting for Dani, Beth and Chase. Adriana and Chelsey ended up going to Filthys/Strat/Black Dog, and by the time Dani and them got there it was like 11pm and the line wasn't moving. So we left and went to Urban, which was a lot of fun. They have a live band and it's just really... chill. Haha. So we drank there, and danced and it was a lot of fun. Even though the gay and creepy guys kept trying to dance with us. Hahaha Man that was bad But we just ignored them. And the creepy guy got kicked out eventually.
Saturday:
Woke up at about 8:00 because Meghann was awake, and then she went home and I fell back asleep. Haha. She came back at like 9:30 because I still had her ID and debit card. After that I decided to watch Little Miss Sunshine and have some eggos. Mmm eggos.
Then I went with my mom to pick up my brother so I could drive, and now..here I am.
Tonight we're going to go to these showhomes that are in that lottery thinger. I'm excited. They look super nice. And then we're going out for dinner and I'm going to wear my new heals and probably break an ankle or something.

So I have a giant bruise on my stomach from running into the table at Union.
Well I didn't run into it, but I tried to get out of the booth and hit my stomach on the corner.
Oh,
it's a pretty bruise.
Haha.
And I have scratches on my stomach. I think I'm mauling myself in the night or something.
& I'm pretty sure I spelt that wrong.
I've also decided I'm going to do a photo project of like "dog for a day" or something.
Exciting!

As annoying as some of their jokes are, they're still all hilarious.
February 09, 2009
Friday
Adriana and I went to Julios for nachos, bulldogs and deep fried ice cream.
Delicious. I want all that right now, haha.
After that we went to American Apparel and she bought a new dress for Satruday night and then we went about bought ice cream cones from Safeway and my parents picked us up from Southgate. We got back to my house and started making our cupcakes, which turned out to be amazing, by the way. And we watched Pineapple Express and then TV Shopping till like 2am. Haha.
Saturday
Woke up around 10:30ish, went downstairs and had some waffles & toaster strudles. Mmm.
Adriana left around 1:00pm and I kinda just did nothing till Allan came over at around 6:00.
Lindsey and Adriana then came to my house at 9:15pm and we left for Accent at 9:30pm. Got to Accent and there were a bunch of my friends there already, had a couple drinks there and then headed to Black Dog.
Once we all got in there we realized it was way to crowded because I literally had like 30 friends that showed up. Haha So we thought we'd go to O'Byrns. But that didn't happen,
SO we ended up back at Accent. Which was fun.
People started leaving around 12:30-1:00am and the Allan, Katt, Jessee, Beth and I went to Lucky 13 which was so fun. Love that place. Got home around 3:00am, and was a good drunk.
Sunday
Slept till noon, and no hangover! Score.
Watched TV for a bit, and showered and cleaned up my room. And then Allan came and got me around 3:00ish, I think? We went to Best Buy and I bought a Audrey Hepburn Movie Collection, A Night at the Roxbury and The Life Aquatic for Allan. After Best Buy we went to Ikea and I bought a side table, finally! And then to Taco Del Mar for dinner. Yum Yum.
After that we went back to his house and watched our movies.
I loved the weekend ♥
