The Last Day of Summer

Are you Ready for it? I think a surprise or two is coming up. Can you handle it? [edit] hey Mindy, here's the new layout, hope you like :D - Laur [/edit]

In a Sort of Awe So Annie came down from Ottawa to visit me yesterday and to sleep over. Kim also came over on the same day so we could exchange gifts. We all ended up playing Cranium (including my great grandmother) and it was too funny. I love that game. Annie gave me the Queen of the Damned movie as well as a necklace and Kim gave me Jelly Bellies as well as A GIFT CERTIFICATE TO GO AND GET AN HOUR LONG MASSAGE! Oh my gosh, I don't know if you ppl are aware but massages are one of my absolute favorite things on the planet. I'm soooo excited. Kinda scared to go alone but it should be amazing, my aunt may even come along and get one herself. hehehe When should I make my appointment for? :) hehehe WOO HOO Anyways can't post very much because I have to go and watch the movie Chocolat now with JOHNNY DEPP and an IRISH GYPSY. Oh mon dieu!!! I watched the movie. What's the point? I can't take it anymore... I fall hopelessly into the love stories that I see ...

Just for the Record I'm not trying to sound depressed or anything, I had a very good Christmas but... I just find out a little bit more about my family every year. So my grandfather showed up for Christmas dinner tonight. He does not talk to our family all year and he didn't come the last year so I figured that he wasn't coming at all... I did not buy him anything and he shows up with a couple of presents. He gave me some bath stuff which was nice but man I didn't really want him here. Not to sound mean but I'm not really that comfortable around him and he doesn't stop talking. (there is obviously more to it than that but I've said enough) Anyways so what does he say when he talks to me for the first time in over a few years. He says something like " I hate telling women things like this but Melinda I think you've gotten a little chubby". Like OH YEAH!! Did I ask for your opinion because I cannot recall doing so. So i'm wearing baggy c...

Christmas Eve! Wow, tomorrow is already going to be Christmas! It came sooooo fast, it's insane. Anywho I just wanted to wish everyone a merry Christmas Eve and Christmas and whatever other holiday that you celebrate. So tonight I am eating a home and then going to Laurie's for her little partay thing. And then after that I might be going to another party at John's house. It is far though so I can only go depending on if I can get a lift or not. *crosses fingers* Anywho MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

Number 1 Pet Peeve Let's just not even get into it. I already have a million times. Anyways I just wanted to invite people to my space because I just signed up there and it is a little better than Friendster, at least in my opinion. I have a headache. I'm lucky that Katie is going to come over today. She's gonna save me. We are going to rent a playstation game and quite hopefully another Johnny Depp movie. Muhahaha Should be fun. Oh yeah and we both have to wrap presents; I can't believe it will be Christmas in 3 days. wow! Oh and sorry my whole body coudln't fit into the cam. hahah I just wanted to show off the shirt that Michelle and Laurie bought me.

Don Juan Demarco I watched another movie with Johnny Depp with weekend *sigh* I don't know how it is possible that he is exists. He is so beautiful that it is almost rediculous. Anyways... wow Don Juan. I still not sure whether he really was Don Juan or not but I think that was the point, it doesn't matter either way. What matters is whether you can believe in loves that are as powerful as that or not. I wouldn't mind meeting Mr. Demarco, not at all, but it would prolly kill me if I was just the 1 553 person he slept with and nothing more to him. What did I really want to say about the movie? Oh yeah... people have been making me think lately that was I am looking for just is not out there and that I expect too much to the point where such a person could not exist. That movie made me think again the an all powerful love is possible. The point of life is to look for it. I want to be with someone who I can know I am in love with, without a doubt. What was the quote I like...

Name that Song? How I long for something better Than this life I know too well Though I know I'm bound for heaven Cuz I done my time in hell

Here We Go Holidays! I wrote my last exam of the semester today; a 4 hour english one. I didn't find it that bad, just really long. I actually have a good feeling about it "Act of God" was alright in fact. Moving on... Went shopping today and I got practically everyone a gift: my nana, my great granny, Laurie , Michelle, John and Emma! I already have Kim's and I just have my aunt, my uncle and Tyler left. My aunt's wasn't there and my little cousin has everything so what am i gonna do. I was all excited because I found rollerblades (they were sooo cute and tiny) for 20 freaking bucks but of course i found out he already has rollerblades. The kid is six what could he have possibly been doing with rollerblades alright.... pfffft. anyways enough about that. Oh yeah secret santa also left if we are doing it. I went with Katie and afterwards we decided to go see Lord of The Rings, Return of the King . It was sold out at paramount of course so we went to C...

Note to Self I feel really lonely. I doubt I am lacking in the friends aspect or the family one (although my mother called the other day) but I am definetely lacking in the romance department. I don't think being single fits so well for me. Anyways that is why I wanted to post this. I do not want to lower my standards or force love. If I feel something then fine, I'll pursue it. But I've deluded myself before into feeling something that was never there and I cannot let myself repeat that mistake. It isn't just me who gets hurt in those situations. I want to feel love again so bad that I am considering things I would have never even thought about before. If I could ask Santa for something... yes I believe in him... i did see him afterall, it would be for a partner. Ok so partner sounds dumb but I couldn't think of a better word. I'm not sure if Santa can grant those sorts of desires but here is hoping. There is a part of me that feels so empty that I ca...

Contest This is my new layout. WOo hoo, it's Christmassy! Anywho here's the thing... Who can tell me who that person is?!? She's very important so you should know!!!

A recount or two Last night was the 3 amigos camp party. I made the mistake of telling people that I found him cute. To make a long story short (because I want to get on to what happened today) by the end of the night he ended up with my number on a napkin (and my e-mail) in his pocket. Oh my gosh... talk about embarrassment. Tonight I went to see Evanescence ! She had just as good a voice live and she does umm not live. ;) wow. My immortal was really breathtaking and when they played bring me to life.... the whole stadium went nuts. I was amazing. The only thing that I wish is that I would have been in the front row on the floor. Our seats were pretty good but you just feel a little disconnected when you have to sit there the whole time. Anyway it was a memorable night. Concerts are amazing. During songs that everyone sings you just feel like you are a part of something. Anywho i'm gonna go eat something now because I am starving!

Busy Times This layout is pretty groovy thanks to Laur ! Although it is way passsed fall and now into winter, who the hell cares? Last night I went out for supper at a girl from my class' house. It was tres fun. We watched dumb and dumberer and Queen of the Damned . I've watched QoftheD Sooo many times that I should just buy it. I really love that movie. Anywho, tonight I am going out for dinner again but this time at 3 amigos . I think i'm gonna have a fajita unless i go to for st antonia pollo. who knows? It is my camp x-mas party so I'm sure it should be pretty fun. Woo hoo. I'm bringing Apukwa from camp with me. Yay, she's the best. And laur is coming with us also. yay Should be a party. hmmm what's next? Aww yes... tomorrow. Tomorrow is the EVANESCENCE CONCERT ! That should be tres tres fun. Wonder if i'll meet anyone interesing? ;) I love this vacation deal. I don't have to go anywhere I don't wanna and I have no homework... it...

Hey Mindy, I thought I'd make you a new layout for the concert on friday. I hope you like it and don't hate it.. I wanted it to be a surprise. I'll try and make you an Angelina Christmas one soon k?

One more Day Tomorrow is my last day of school if you don't count the day I have to go in to write my english exit exam. So today I had my french test and my anthropology one and I hope that they both went ok. They were pretty easy compared to the two that I have tomorrow: humanities and qm. I don't feel like studying for either so that is why they are going to be tough. Qm not so much because I have a study guide but I have no idea what the humanities test is going to be about. Today I got stuck in a bus door yet again. Ask Laur all about it... it's always me. Every time I try to get out of those automatic doors, they close on me. arrrg. Hmmm what else can i write about. I haven't been posting that much because nothing supremely interesting has been going down. I'm sure there will be more to right about once my vacation starts. Umm i actually wore pigtails in my hair... take a look at the cam pic. At first I was going with the balls like princess Lea but...

Beautiful So lately that has been my msn name for a long time... I want people to look at me and see someone who is beautiful; mentally just as much a physically. But maybe it is for myself, maybe I want to be able to look in the mirror and see something beautiful. I normally don't but sometimes I can catch a glimpse of it hiding there. I want to be able to meet people and know that they are priveledged to get to know me because I actually am special and worth something. I am not trying to sound conceded here, I hope it is not coming across that way. I saw something today that I wanted to write about... what was it. Oh ok nothing really special. I saw a mini Ryan. ha! You know the show the OC? Well some dude that I saw today in school smiled and i had to look twice. He was too short to be him but I swear it was looking at the guy from the OC, tres weird. Tomorrow I am going to a Toco party so hopefully that will be some fun. yay! I'm looking to change something abo...

Barf If I had to describe how I feel in one word, I would choose the word crap. I was fine today at lunch and then I got back to school and got a big headache. I took a pill at school from Glen and then another when I got home and now I feel like I'm gonna pass out. Michelle wrote something nice in a survey about me today so I just wanted to thank her. At least someone made me feel special. Alright so enough said. I'm going to go and try to sleep this off I guess because I have to wake up at 6:45 tomorrow morning. Man... can school just be over?

I could write and write Heheh it feels like I am keeping so many things inside lately but I like it. I like the feeling that people don't know half of what is going on with me. It is great. There is a difference between people just not knowing and then not caring and i prefer the first. Right so tomorrow could be a very good day or a downer but we'll just have to wait and see. hmmmmm wonder what will happen. Umm so i'm kinda happy. yep yep. Possibilities and fun are coming up everywhere. Woo hoo. Bring on the X-mas Holidays. I need to get my ass shopping!!!

WOW I had a really good day today, I don't want to jinx it and explain why. ;)
