YYZ Migraines.

So, here I am on a Sunday at YYZ airport waiting to go home. My flight is delayed by about 25 minutes so far so I have a little time to update. I tried to change my perspective a bit while home this time. I’m really trying not to stress. I want non-stressful friendships. So I’m trying really hard to not give more than a few seconds to those who are stressful.

I managed to see a few people and go out and do what I wanted. It was relaxing for me and there was no pressure. Basically I’ve become overly concerned with seeing people while I am here that I’m not enjoying myself and worry about other people too much. If I can do it and see people I will, if I can’t then I can’t and hopefully I’ll stop getting mean messages from people about my lack of seeing them. I just don’t have enough time and energy to travel all over Toronto every single day, more than once, to see people (who I really would like to see by the way). I’m just too tired to do it! I need relax time. Perhaps if I had my license it would be different, but I don’t and I am a tired gal.

I also think my trips home of a week aren’t long enough. I need a week of family time and then a week of me time. Does that make sense? A week isn’t long enough to fit in enough home time goodness without sacrificing a lot of things in order to make every one happy.

This week I went to Sneaky Dees, AGO, Gabby’s and a Dashboard concert. I guess that’s alright for the amount of time I had.

One New Year Resolution.

After much thinking, and not thinking, I’ve come to ONE resolution to make for the year:

Read one book at the time
or else I might miss the lesson.

My true love, my macbook.

Well, howdy ladies and gents. I’m back and so soon with an update! My muchmusic vj search submission seems to be doing well, so keep up with the good follower work! My friends are awesome and are promoting me relentlessly. It was a spur of the moment submission as I am in NYC right now, but I’ve applied in the past and couldn’t give up the chance this time. So please help me out! Thank you so much!

So, in my real life, it’s been 3 weeks since school started. It’s going by alright so far, but it is pre midterms, so who knows what tune I’ll be singing in a month. I’ve spent a TON on new supplies. I wish some of these supplies were things I’d be using when I am finished with these courses, but there’s a lot that I won’t be using enough that I’d want to keep around. I am also a perpetual nomad and the need to eliminate most of my belongings happens quite frequently. I AM happy that I aquired 4 gigs of RAMMY GOODNESS for my precious macbook last night. I took her to the Tekserve hospital last night for the cosmetic adjustment. I forgot I had seen this place before of an episode of Sex and the City.

Today I am fighting the Fall coldfludeath off. It hasn’t quite fully come on, but I’d like it to make a decision on what it’s doing. Go away or attack me full on. I went to New York Central Arts Supply today to pick up some japanese paper and other supplies and I feel I totally floated my way around the store, bumping into things and such. Hello fever! I always look so lost in these stores but I’m sure it was 100x today. If you saw me in there, I’m ok… really.

I am still in the market for a sewing machine, but I doubt that will happen before Christmas. I wanted one in order to make Christmas gifts since I will be unable to afford much. I have all these ideas I want to get to for gifts, but alas… I don’t have the patience for hand sewing. I want to make tea cozies!

Now, it’s time to cuddle with my science book and try to channel my 10th grade self in order to understand all this algebra. I’m doomed.

The Summer That Wasn’t.

At least that’s what I hear about Toronto this past summer. I feel for you and your cool weather. In fact, I wish that we could have switched weather forecasts and I would have gladly lived in the rain and cool over the heat, humidity and all around sweatiness.
I’m disappointed with myself and my lack updating for the past forever. It seems as though if I don’t have my computer right there with me as soon as I realize I have something to write about I get lazy and put it off. Trust me, there has been a lot to write about too. Including a random box of 80s porn WITH photos that I still need to scan and mock. I will get to it. Oh the mullets and the tight pants! Fluorescent pink!
I’m spending my Labor Day weekend alone watching Law and Order SVU marathons. I’ve been watching all day. I managed to pull myself away for 2 hours to spend more of my life on school supplies. I’m barely making it through writing this entry because I keep getting distracted by the show.

These are the pluses about being alone this weekend:

-Party at my house! Ok not really.
-Pancakes for dinner and no guilt trips! Canadian syrup only.
-Sleeping on the couch and not caring if a tank top strap stretches out.
-Sleeping on the couch with the tv on.
-Using the bathroom with the door open (excited about this one).
-Do the dishes right away? Nah!
-Midnight yoga (p90x style).
-LAW AND ORDER MARATHONS (Most recent episode I’m watching).

I might has well do an Al Bundy and scratch, burp and hand halfway down the pants.

Last weekend I was in Toronto and I went to the CNE. My 1.5 year old niece was thrilled. We played the duck game, and although she kept picking the ducks, she still won a prize.

I also did a photo shoot with Sean Ryan during one of my trips home. It was fun and relaxed. I felt pretty. You can click here for one of the shots. I hope I get to move with him again.

I’m getting completely sucked in to this episode. I will keep in touch. I’m sure this school year will bring lots of stories, visa troubles, money issues and all around stress. Did I mention I’ve missed out on a trip to my lovely dream city of San Francisco right now? I want.

Privacy on the Internets?

I have returned again after a small privacy setting on my blog. There were a few issues and they have been solved. I’ve been up to a whole lot and nothing at the same time. I am currently in Columbus, Ohio enjoying being out of the big city! Next up, Toronto, Pittsfield and San Francisco. I will write a proper update soon!
