all grown up

I've started a new, more professional blog here. It will likely have less to do with my day to day adventures and more to do with my musings and opinions, but we'll see how it goes. See you over there!

helloo blogger world, how are you?

I've been keeping busy - choir concerts this last weekend were a blast. I had some girls over for a party last week which was also lots of fun, plus I've been busy working, both for the lord and for the corporation. Ha. I'm hilarious, wouldn't you say?

Michelle is coming home in 9 days, which makes me very excited, plus this week I've got two bridal showers to attend for my beloved Lindsey, and some other prep to do for her big day.

I went on a little ticketmaster binge - R.E.M. with Modest Mouse, Oasis with Ryan Adams and the Cardinals, and Dave Matthew Band all in one week. My Visa is crying a little, but it'll be worth it.

Currently I am sitting here enjoying the tulips that Lisa gave me at a choir concert this weekend, and contemplating opening a Guinness. Guinness and MacBook makes me think of this blog, which gave me a chuckle today.

Don't mind me, I'm emergent.

mel gibson, eat your heart out

It's funny when you come across a blog post that is four years old that you feel like you could have written two days ago. Check out Jenny Baker's post what women want.

I don't think I have ever been out of love

These are the words spraypainted on a wall near the Commercial Drive Skytrain Station.

I can't decide whether to be enchanted or embittered.

all I can do is yawn, yawn and yawn some more. why am I always so tired?

hello blogger world, it's been awhile.

I have taken a hiatus from blogging, largely because most of the things going on in my life have not seemed appropriate for the blogosphere, or I have been very busy.

My roommate remains far away, and has, in fact, extended her trip an extra month. I am stoked for her, and I'm glad she's having a fantastic time. Living here alone, however, is showing me why people typically do not live alone. When the shit hits the fan, and believe me, the shit has been hitting the fan, you want someone around. You need to feel like someone is pulling for you, even if they're not directly involved, especially, if they're not directly involved. Roommates are all well and good, but let's face it, that's not what I'm really talking about.

I desire so many things, and I seem to fear so many more. Sometimes I feel that I have so much to give, and others I feel so completely sabotaged by my own contempt and greed. What's that about? Shouldn't we just shed that sooner or later? Now would be a great time, as a matter of fact.

You know me. You know my way in.
You just can't show me, but God I'm praying,
That you'll find me, and that you'll see me,
That you run and never tire.

it takes two when it used to take only one

I wish Ryan Adams was my boyfriend. Oh man.
