Happy Birthday, Jared!

(Jared is the ugly naked guy that lives across from me... We've decided it's his birthday this weekend... just like how we decided that his name is Jared..)

I moved! :) Taneil and I got ourselves a cute little apartment! It's just our size, just the two of us, it's ALWAYS clean, we live in walking distance to so much useful stuff now (including the grocery store and my bank), and I'm practically neighbours with a couple friends from work! So it's quite fantastic. I'm loving every minute of it! Well... except for those minutes when buddy downstairs decides to play really loud bass music at midnight... but I take the good with the bad!

I'm also loving not being in school this semester. Fingers crossed for more hours next schedule, including no Sundays. For some reason my boss scheduled me to work the next 2 Sundays.. I think he was waiting to see if I'd say anything... I did.

I got an iPhone! Most people probably don't care, but I'm already obsessed with it. Yes.. this does mean Bell Canada sucked me back in for another 3 years, but I figure all phone companies are douchebags so I may as well stick with the one willing to let me upgrade early and credit some charges from my last bill.

Ok I have no other news to share unfortunately.. so I will end with a few random thoughts going on in my head right now. Peace out!

1. I'm craving chinese food
2. I need a pedicure
3. I wonder if my water is boiling yet
4. I should go to the store... but it's SO COLD outside..
5. I should decorate more.. and maybe do some dusting
6. Valentine's day is coming up..... perhaps I'll mysteriously disappear that day..

Kiss the ham!!

New post? Sure why not..

So I'm not going to Australia anymore. Things just didn't happen that way. I was disappointed, but kinda relieved at the same time. I read back on an old blog entry that I wrote before I moved here to Lethbridge and I was very excited to come here. I knew it was the right thing to do. So I feel like I should stay awhile longer. I made the right choice.

Taneil and I are moving out! We got ourselves a cute little apartment... and it's walking distance to a grocery store, my bank, subway, blockbuster, a dollar store, a pizza place, basically everything you could ever want. All it needs is a Denny's and it'd be just like when I lived in Calgary. I can't wait to only have 1 roommate. I think I'll feel a lot more grown up.. Not sure why... but I think I will. And if any of my food goes missing, I'll know who to blame :)

I'm not going to school next semester. I barely went this semester, so I know I'd only fail if I tried to go next semester. I need a break. I might still go to Australia in Feb or March on a vacation for a couple weeks. We'll see. All I know, is I can't do school right away.

My life is boring, right? I know! Well for some reason my co-workers don't think so. Maybe it's due to all the stories they MAKE UP about me. I swear I'm always the topic of conversation. Did you know I've had secret affairs with at least 3 different co-workers in the 18 months I've worked there? I sure didn't. In fact, one is going on right now. People are even getting mad at me because they think I'm lying to them. Makes me laugh, because I don't find myself exciting enough to discuss! Haha.. maybe I'll just play it up...

Preference!! Preference was fantastic this year! Especially since I wasn't planning on going until about a week before. Jen found a date and it made me jealous so I found one too! Dave. I actually had never had a conversation with him before I asked. But Jen (my old roommate) and Megan (my sister) knew him from Calgary so I figured it'd be safe. We had a super good time together and with the other 2 couples we were with. We cooked dinner, and went on a photo scavenger hunt. Let's just say I made some new friends at the University :) Oh.. Dave and I lost.... so we had to dance with brooms at the dance. Wasn't really a punishment... we kinda enjoyed it!

Christmas is coming and I CAN'T WAIT!! I'm so excited to go home and be with my family. AND this year we have a new addition joining us! Leah!! So needless to say, it should be a pretty fantastic one :) (Oh, and I just bought my secret santa from work the PERFECT present. So I'm excited about that too.)

Well that's it. It's 2am and I have to pee. Both signals that it's time for bed.
