i haven't died. im still here but hardly ever on lj. mostly i am just lying around in the scorching heat that is my guelph apartment.
tonight i was bored and took photos of myself.
i know these are just silly little me being bored photos of me... but i liked these three a lot
i may go farther with this whole self portrait thing... i really like the way the colour of my walls looks

so i found out today that i have been accepted to the Guelph Global Learner Program El Salvador trip for May 2007
ohhhhh baby
i almost yelled in the middle of class when i got the email.
the program is 16 days but i am looking to stay an extra week or so on my own.
i am so excited, you dont even know. I know it is far away but I am really pumped already.

so.
i have 4 midterms between now and thursday. sucks.
i mean, i love school but this is ridiculous.
i think i am seriously failing at the spanish language but i guess i will find out for sure tomorrow at 930 am.
one good thing is i have saved almost $300 dollars separate from my regular funds that pay for rent and shit and it is supposed to be for travel... although if reilly produces something pretty it will more realistically end up paying for a new tattoo. (which is almost as exciting as central america)
my world has been getting smaller and smaller but i think, at least for the moment, that i am ok with that.

im kinda sad i didnt spend thanksgiving with my fam. it sounded lke they had a really good time and i had a pretty crappy time here dealing with work and loneliness and landlords. damn.
and im warning you all i am becoming a hermit until midterms are over, ok?
but before that happens i need suggestions on something clever i can be for halloween...
something good but not too hard to do...where i still look good because i dont like costumes where i feel all gross or too heavily make-uped afterwards...
help?
also, i am excited to carve pumpkins again.
last year it was a unicorn....what shall i do this time?
i love halloween.

"we sailed away on a winter's day..."
i am sick of the perpetual reading that i am not able to keep up with...already.
and i think my diet is probably lacking in a number of important nutrients that will help keep me awake because i am sooooo sleepy all the time. dauda can attest to this. i ws falling asleep in her class today and i know she could tell and i feel really guilty because i love her. and at most times i would enjoy hearing about the liberal democratic state and gender and the fraternal contract and and....but i just couldnt keep my eyes open.
and it keeps raining! every day! this much rain can start to make a girl sad, ya know.
also, Leigh Ann! every time i go on msn i hope you are there...i miss talking to you.
upside: kevin and i had tea today. well, i had tea and he had soup. and we chatted. it was nice.
and my room is clean, that is always a wonderful feeling.
...except when it is still either too hot or too cold and your window is broken. bleh.

i started work last night....and again tonight.
- they are very disorganized and that worries me.
- i am so not strong enough to carry their giant plates.
- im on 5 times this week
- i need to go buy more white shirts
+ the girls are very nice, especially emily who is great and natalia who is soooo pretty and foreign
+ i make money
+ so far, people have been driving me home afterwards....saves LOTS of time
+ a lady today loved me so much she showed me pictures of her son so i could date him
in other news...
i dropped my pre-colonial african history class (i know, i know, i was so excited...but i have my reasons) and picked up "sexuality and gender in history"
i think im going to try to get that womens studies minor i have been forever talking about
maybe
im a bit behind...

OH GOD

so i am stressed about computer stuff.
i am buying a new laptop except i dont know that much about computers at all and the companies lie about their deals and i cant spend thaaaat much money (aka no MAC) and im stressed. if any of you know stuff about computers and want to tell me what to get at a good price and fix all my problems that'd be greeeat. thanks.
however, my dad and i bottled wine today and now i am drinking it. this is an upside to today.
i had a great time at neutral this weekend too, with lia and steve and greg and my boys from the UK.
i want to be back at school sooooooooooooooooooo badly. i know these next two weeks of work are gonna go super slow. i know it.
ahhh i just wanna be back in guelph.

Dear Hillside Festival,
You blew me away. I dont even think i appreciated fully the awesomeness of some of your performers because EVERYTHING was so awesome.
I have never sweated, danced, sang along, loved, or had as much fun as i did this weekend with you.
Everything just completely floored me...
I would marry the Meligrove Band if i could, and final fantasy, and the entire crowd that is the hidden cameras....
thank you for introducing us in person.
Sincerely, your new lover,
Merrin

i had such a nice time with my mom on friday. we went downtown, did queen, shopped kensington, ate avacado sandwiches, bought shoes and purses and scarves, and missed our bus so i was late for work.
whatever man. my mom is awesome.
last night we had fireworks and steve let me light a bunch.
also, thursday was steves birthday and he was a drunken ball of joy. and i saw greg!
i am trying to keep busy so that i dont think about certain things...its been a rough week, despite all the moments listed above.
today im heading downtown with work peeps cuz the restaurant is closed and tuesday i start other work and will therefore have no time. im going out with a bang before i start mourning the loss of my social life. we're going to blow bubbles, drink wine, go to afterlife (i know i know, so clubby but the drinks are $2!) and then crash in our hotel suite. maybe we'll light a fire in the fireplace or make breakfast in our kitchenette!
im sure there will be pictures.
xo
p.s. please call me, friends. if you ever have a monday or wednesday night, or sat or sunday daytime free, i would love to play. i know i know, my schedule is shit but i cant help it.
