Four movies you could watch over and over: star wars, X-men (I can quote this one from begginning to end), monty python and the holy grail, Monsters inc
Four places you have lived: my farm in the middle of no-where, Braeside camp, (and for very short periods of time) my friends' house in another section of the middle of nowhere

Four places you have been on vacation:1. Disney World2. Chicago3. Kenora4. Alberta
Four websites you visit daily: www.marioportal.com, www.craftster.com, email accounts and blogs mostly for the rest of it
Four places you'd rather be right now:someplace warm... possibly africa or indonesia.... but i'll take anyplace tropical

mush

wisdom teeth out... and now MUSH! thats all i can eat, luke warm mush! mashed potatoes, scrambled eggs and milkshakes.... no texture at all!!!! I'm tempted to stick a steak in a blender (i'm a bit meat deprived).... but i just bought some raviolli so i should be able to survive a bit longer

my no good, terrible day

not actually that bad but whatever.....

-first i go to school, find out my english exam was yesterday afternoon, NOT today

-I frantically run around the school till i find the english teacher

-after a few minor changes to the exam, i get to write it in a room just off the library

-at the end of the day i get on the bus and.... its the wrong one (another stupid bus took our usual spot)

- i get on the right bus

-i go home

-i go to work

-the doors are open to the barn and my fingers freeze, my arthritus starts acting up and ,my work is muck more painful

-a trainer (a spikey metal thing) gets stuch on one of the milkers and swings down into my hand

-it stapped into my finger and my hand is now bleeding

-a cow kicks me in the knee

- I step in and slip on crap and wack my ankle on the edge of the manure track

-i come home and have to rinse my mouth with this sanitizer because i'm getting my wisdom teeth removed tomorrow.... it burns

..... lets hope tomorrow goes better, although it will probably be painful due to the removal of my smartness from my mouth

late 1800s

those of you who know me, know that i get fixated on specific things.... ok, i obsess over them. I get into phases where i am absolutely intriged with a particular subject. Right now i'm entering a turn of the century phase. I've always liked the non-frilly victorian stuff, but now more than ever, my sketch book is filled withpictures of tophats, lamp posts, and capes... I've taken to looking online for the style of cape i want to sew (i've been talking about that forever) and i think i may try to make a top hat..... more to follow on this subject

life is swell

i had a good day on friday, i wrote my art test... easy...... and i got money.... $5 for marking the fill in the blanks on the art exam during lunch.... and then i got my first milking pay check that night... and then Gattaca was on TV so i saved myself the money i would have spent renting it (good movie by the way).... anyways if next week goes this smooth i'll be happy ( I have history and English exams and then am getting my wisdom teeth out on thursday)

cows= $

so yeah, i did my first solo shift milking cows so now I'm going to get full pay (san't remember how much that is), therefore i am no longer a trainee but an actual milker... man is that a hick job or what?

MOO

whoa! i havn't mentioned my job yet! I've been working at a dairy farm down the road for a week already.... its nice, fairly easy work.... the only downfall is that afterwards you smell of iodine and occasionally, sour milk. I like it though and it beats working with stinky pigs ( these cows don't smell bad at all), or moving chickens with "Large Talons". I've been learning alot about cows though.... like 5 nipples cows aren't uncommon, but as far as i know you only milk the 4 regular nipples... Oh! and sometimes you only can milk three (we have one cow where this is the case)... but yeah...... MOO!

re: isp(s)

by the way i got 87% on both the isp projects i was freaking about.... now i just got to finish my art canvass over the next week.... should be easy ( I'll post a pic when its done)

dressed up

here are some pics of me in suits:
to the left: this year's semi outfit,
to the right: me being hyper and squeezing into my bright blue grade eight grad suit, Tubular!

metro

well, i guess i can be called a bit metro now, u c this started a while ago.... being an art person i wanted to carry a sketch book, unfortuatly guys don't carry bags (save for bulky backpacks) and this is unideal for carrying a big sketch book and pencils, pens etc... so i decided that i needed a bag to carry.... the most convenient and masculin one i could think of was a labtop case. This i got from a guy who gives us random stuff from garage sales. I then needed to make it cool (it had a logo for our local teachers union on it, not a cool thing in a high school), so i nintendo-ized it. I covered this logo with a triforce (from Zelda), and learned embroidery to make a super mario patch for an inside pocket. I now have an amazing bag perfect for books and my sketch book.
(here are some pics of it)

another side note on the petra concert

i got whip-lash during jekyll and hyde.... my neck hurts

Petra Concert!

last night was the petra concert and it rocked. It was awesome, especially since i was so close up.... only one guy in a wheel chair in front of me so i got the benifit of being near the front without being so crowded... my ticket cost $20 dollars... but then i spent around $100 on merchandise... a few T-shirts, cds, stickers , etc. anyways it was great and i got all their signatures and shook the lead singer's hand. also i found another group i like, they're called farwell june, and were one of the warmup bands, they were an odd combo of music styles... sorta rock/ folk/ something else... they were great too.
well... i guess its time to say... have a tubular day

broken internet and lots of wires

so my internet stinks... country phone lines and dial up... but thats not my current problem. the phonejack my comp goes into is broke.... at first the plug in kept falling out so we'de have to jiggle it in place and dutcttape it in place.... now the jack ate the cord and when i pulled it out a bunch of wires can out with it..... so now in order to have internet i have 3 regular phone cords and 2 really long extention cords plugging it in downstairs on the other side of the house.... its a real mess, but i got my internet up and running.... a neccessity for a fog day, peace out

getting lost

most everyone have a map in there head of everywhere they've been and vage areas that they have not... for example the area around your house may be conected clearly to school and the corner store, but there is a a grey area between here and china, on the other hand east brain tree may not be on your internal map (its in saskatchewan in case its not).... you may also have a few separate pieces of map... say one of the area you grew up, and another equally clear map of say where you work but they may not be connected, such is my case.... I would have to make a guesstimate that there is approx 932 864.25 maps in my head that are arrangended as follows.... a big fat cow chewed them up, spit them out stomped on them, let them fry to a crisp in the hot sun into one random jumble and then framed them behind frosted glass... hence i get lost. If you asked me wher hamilton is in comparrison to London, i wouldn't know, nor waterloo to Toronto but there is still hope. the area around where i live is becoming clear now, the secret, getting lost. when i get lost i pass through familiar yet unknown locations and then by getting unlost learn where they are, confuzzling but it works..... maybe there is some hope but dunno if this will work between cities cuz then i'll get to lost to be unlost. anyways thats all for now have a tubular day
