I never update this thing. Today I decided to since nobody is around to entertain me (aka play Solitaire Showdown).

I drove the benz for the first time today. That's a little crazy. Driving with my dad really makes me wonder how he has had any friends in his entire life. He can be a real dick when people need his support.

I also broke up with the boy. It seemed unfair to be with him under the circumstances, but holy hell, I miss him.

To fill the day, I watched the rest of Virgin Suicides and American History X.

What I need to do more of, is what I did yesterday. Sitting my ass down in the middle of the river with Ace and Sam, then watching TV at Aces accompanied with food, then going to semi entertaining outtings, in which I am able to call my exboyfriends from 4 years ago that cheated on me, Slut Buckets. Brilliant, really.

Then of course, Bubblemania (fuck yeah!)

My bro is on call, which is a total bummer, cause I wouldn't mind hanging out with him right now. Instead he is probably watching babies be born. Gross.

I am gonna nag Doug for tattoos really really soon here.

I don't think I've ever become taken in a less romantic way, as yesterday. Bummer!

You know what's NOT great first thing in the morning?

Listening to your parents bitch about the most miserable things.

IE: The murder of 8 people.

IE: A little girl in grade 2 getting raped at school.

....

I mean, I am a pretty cheery person first thing in the morning, but it's not the easiest thing to listen to, to give your day a kick start.

Last week of school. Thank goodness.

I haven't updated in a while, but I know someone's reading this hoping for some action. So you know, I thought I'd be the great person I am and update.

Lately life has been ridiculously busy! Got accepted to school in Toronto and thus, realizing that I could put a little bit more effort into the design company than I have been which makes me sort of stoked. The guilt of not focusing on school gets to me lots, though. Bummer. But anyways. The design company has picked up, got a line out, stores interested, catalogue to be done this week, and website by the end of this month. Pretty exciting!

We shot pictures for the catalogue and the page the past two sundays. It's weird that none of the girls I asked showed up to the shoot, so the only female model is me. Apparenty that is a selling point - I am not so sure about that! However, we have pictures of Dave without a shirt on, so that'll make the ladies wet and buy buy buy!

This weekend has been pack full of food. I spent Saturday learning out digestion and such and then got super super super stuffed on all you can eat sushi. Sunday I got stuffed on a steak/cheese sandwich with sweet potato fries followed by salmon steak and rice. I literally looked like I was months into my pregnancy. Hot, I am sure.

Now there is a dude sitting in front of me with massive amounts of back hair and he's scratching his butt. SICK.

The only thing that sucks about spring coming, is that I have to drop photography because I gotta save money for Toronto. Siiiigh.

Urmmmmmmmm I was gonna say other stuff about my life events but I totally forgot cause I started getting hungry and eating ceral. Go figure. Food is my ultimate distraction.

Stuff at home has been pretty good lately. My mom is super into both my business and my choices in school. She's getting into helping me choose shirts and telling me what designs to put on them... it's pretty cute. Then she's getting all ahead of herself helping me plan the "business" of my being a naturopath even though it is so far away. I am worried about my brother these days though, cause he's on the other side of the country and he's totally heartbroken. Women.

Upcoming shows:
- Horrorpops
- Saves the Day
- International Noise Conspiracy
- Spill Canvas (that I have to miss. boooo)

Apparently decent hardcore bands have stopped coming to Calgary.

Anyways, now I am rambling. The guys I have involved in my life right now totally rule.

PS. I am SO stoked for summer. I am in flip flops today which makes me happy. It's been raining lots. So stoked. BBQ this weekend. Rafting soon. Porn star tans. Cliff diving. Road trips.

For better clarification...

The second last post about me moving to Toronto.... I got accepted into the Naturopathic Medicine program so I'll be moving out there for December. So, does anyone want to come with me? Haha

And the last post was of my new designs. You all should buy up! They're pretty swank if you ask me. ^_^

Today, Shawn picked me up so I could go spoil myself. I blew more than a grand, but I got myself the Nikon D50 that I've been drooling over. Finally, I have my digital SLR! And the best thing is, is that Shawn got me a deal, and ended up buying one for himself!!

Although, he shared with me that I might have cursed him and his relationships. WOOPS.

New. Camera. ^_^

Ungreatful bastards.

It sucked that nobody in the entire place understood how much it hurt to see someone smash the best piece of art and most time demaning at that.. that I have ever done. And them to just walk away and be like "who cares?"

Nevermind the fact that I was all grumpy last night cause I didn't think to pick it up from my boyfriends, so he took an 1 1/2 transit trip to bring it to me, 10 at night.

Best first art show, EVER.

I've gone to school 17 days in a row going on 18. Pulled an all nighter last night.

Damn!

I am so freakin sick. I just want to go home and sleep and shut my brain off.

Headaches. Freezing. No appetite. Inability to breathe. Runny nose. Disgusting coughs.

Damn!

So I just got back from a field lab for my Aquatic Ecology course. So friggin awesome. We spent 2 days out in the middle of lakes, streams, and rivers, collecting all sorts of samples. Totally like, when I was 8 and took buckets out to the river and just filled the whole thing up with water, and took it home to check out all the living things in it! Except this was for school.

The one regret, is not bringing my camera. I was totally fearful of dropping it into the water and convinced myself not to bring it - but we actually spent a lot of time hiking around and such as well, and the scenery was amazing. We found this wicked swimming hole, as well. Frig.

I almost became a country girl this weekend. Probably cause of all the sweet invertebrate s we found, and all the dragonflies getting busy. And more so, cause I didn't fall ONCE this weekend, even while jumping on rocks through the river and all my makeshift-bridges, in boots way too big for me. Though, I did bump my head and almost fall backwards out of the van...

Surgery was a friggin letdown! I was all stoked to be all "gangstered" up, ala Earth Crisis, but no avail. I got got a bunch of stitches, a whole lot of blood, swelling and bruises... and well. A lot of whipping twigs to it, as well, from hiking. Sweet.

Today was totally not my day.

I found out I had the wrong psyc book, and no proof of purchace.

Then the toilet overflowed!

THEN I realized I had no more patches left.

Oh my goodness, I hope nothing else goes wrong! Bugh.

Woah, Brad Pitt looks hot with dark hair and in a hoodie and jeans. Yum!

Mon, 08 Aug 2005 02:35:13 GMT

I never, ever update it feels like. I keep busy, but it seems like there's not a whole lot to say.

But I guess in short, I went to Vietnam, and missed everyone at home. But now that I am home, I miss the food in Vietnam, and being constantly busy.

Though, I also came home, and was spoiled horribly by my boyfriend (one year!) So there are girls that like Tiffany's. This girl likes her wildcat circular barbell, stainless steal, internally threaded bracelets. Yum.

Now, I've gone back to the grind and started studying for real, for the DAT.

And, I really want someone to come eat Veggie House with me, PLEASE.

I am in vietnam. It's freakin hot, and I know I'm gonna get fat already.

The shoes are freakin great here.

Now, if only I could see some scenery. The houses are stacked here. It's hot. There's lots of nice flowers (and did I mention all the food?).

So I'm heading off to Vietnam, if you did not know yet!

Shawn, is there anything you want?!
(and anyone else)

For FOUR weeks.

My flight is 15 hours. My goodness.

Let's hope I don't die!

I am getting pretty nervous about leaving. Nervous about getting sick. Nervous about hating it and not being able to escape. Nervous of getting into a fight with my parents/relatives. Nervous I have forgotten something... Nervous. Nervous. Nervous.

And horribly sad that I'll be apart from Jared for so long (and missing our year anniversary).

It's weird to think that people who have been dating for less time than we have, are already married, or are getting married.

Gosh, I'd be so much happier if he was coming with me. Or any of my friends, for that matter. Someone foreign. Someone young. Someone with no ties to that country, would be nice.

Freaking out. Freaking out.

This seems strangely fun.

01. Reply with your name and I will write something I like about you.
02. I will then tell what song/movie/icon reminds me of you.
03. If I were to apply an o'clock to you, I'll tell you what it would be.
04. I will try to name a single word that best describes you.
05. I'll tell you the most memorable moment I've had with you.
06. I will tell you what animal you remind me of.
07. I'll then tell you something that I've always wondered about you.
08. Put this in your journal.

On Tuesday I saw Agnostic Front and Death Before Dishonor. AF was incredible.

Saturday I went to see the Fullblast and Boys Night Out, which included seeing friends Brian (from Detroit Rock City), Pud (from Toronto/Edmonton), and the wonderful Heather K. Yay!

It was also a night of celebration, due to the 10 months I have been dating my dearest Jared - 10 months = approx. 2 years Cristina time. So that was exciting. We just curled up in bed and watched Donnie Darko, while drinking milkshakes.

Now, if only he'd come back and nurse my sick self.

-Cristina xxx

Note to self: Go to Michaels before the 20th to buy a frame for Shawn of the Dead autographed poster and Japanese Amelie poster.

PS. It is well worth noting that whatever I was about to note, I have forgotten. Perhaps I should mention there is a possibility that I will be infected with E. Coli as I had recently indulged in Peter's Drive In. Oh, the joys!

Last night I went to a straight club for the first time. Can you imagine? I guess cause at gay clubs there were always themes or they played good 80's music so it never seemed like the club mentality applied, but it probably did. Well, somehow, I got convinced to go to the club last night and I found it horrible. People grinding. Making out. Passing out. Passing out while grinding and/or making out. Some of the remixes they played were actually quite decent, though! But, for me I got to get all dressed up and it almost felt like halloween!

The last few days have been so busy so I haven't really updated. I got my learners (I congratulate myself for being able to put it off for 5 years), so that I could get my passport, got my passport, and started getting all the stuff I need to go to Vietnam (VIETNAM!). I'm pretty excited.

I did a photoshoot yesterday morning for Globofest. I guess this is considered volunteering? It was so ridiculously cold. I was ever so thankful that Shawn was there to keep me in good company, and warm! He was the highlight of my day, I haven't hung out with him since my birthday and before that.. who knows when?! He's an absolute doll.
