school is excellent. my courses are, for the most part, pretty interesting.
this weekend is homecoming. which, apparently, means almost every student on campus gets incredibly drunk for 2 days straight. they are even opening meal hall at 7 so that people can have food in their stomaches, when they start drinking at 8. in the morning. yeah.

i was shocked to find out how fast midterms are approaching. i don't feel like i have learned enough yet to be tested on. oh well.

thanksgiving is next weekend. i am excited. i love stuffing.

i stumbledupon this website a while ago: http://www.brazilianartists.net/home/flags/

Made it to St.FX, safe and sound. Classes are going well, and the girls on my all girls floor are not as annoying as I was expecting. My residence is really old and apparently

This is an excerpt I found on the res life website.

"Mount Saint Bernard or MSB was not always, as it is today. MSB was once a college for young women and only women. The Sisters of the Congregation of Notre Dame of Montreal were asked to staff a school for young women. This St. Bernard's Academy became affiliated with the university in 1894 as Mount Saint Bernard College. In 1897 St. Francis Xavier became the first Catholic coeducational university in North America to grant degrees to women. Members of the Congregation joined the faculty in later years. Women represented a small fraction of the student body for more than 100 years, but by 1985, they equaled men in numbers. Up until the year 2001, the Mount was still run by the sisters and only girls lived there. However, in 2001, the university bought the college, making it the largest dormitory on campus housing both men and women, and giving it a more livlier feel, as the Mull River Shuffle (the unofficial song of MSB) echos through the halls.

Of course, the Mount comes equipped with some paranormal history. The story is that a nun haunts the fourth floor of Gilmora. One account claims that this young nun was raped by a priest and later found to be pregnant. Ashamed and humiliated, the young girl jumped from the fourth floor balcony. The priest who committed the crime against her was overcome with grief and is said to have hanged himself in the basement of the Mount. Some reports claim that the nun just fell off the balcony... but how could you just fall off a balcony. However the death came about, the Blue Nun, as she is known, haunts the fourth floor; she wanders the hall and enters the room. If your room is unkempt and your chair not pushed into your desk, the nun will sit in your chair and watch you sleep. Others claim that she sits atop of your chest making breathing a difficult job. The priest we are unsure of, but accounts claim that a man haunts the spiral staircase of Gilmora and watches as you ascend and descend.

Gilmora isn’t the only part haunted; all through the Mount objects will move around, the elevators move with no one inside, voices linger in the halls and bathrooms, the toilets flush when nobody is there and shadows pace around.

There is also an account, although no one knows for sure, that an exorcism occurred in the Mount somewhere, some claim Camden, but who knows. Nevertheless, stories have been told that shrill screams of agony echo though the halls still to this day."

. Which I think is kind of cool...

Actually, my new friend Emma has a labtop that keeps turning on at night. So we were joking yesterday that one day she is going to try and log into facebook, but instead of her e-mail address in the little box, it will say bluenun@hotmail.com

My sister is pregnant and her due date was yesterday, so it could be any day now! I can't wait. I love babies.

And... metric is playing on Saturday. SWEET!

That is all.

i got this sweet tourist coupon booklet two days ago. i decided to try and use every coupon before they expire on july 31...

yesterday i visited the haunted mansion in kensington. it was actually pretty scary at first. there was this one part where the floor actually shakes. i nearly peed my pants. and there was this room with a whole bunch of portraits in frames, but they when you looked at them closely, they were holograms. it was spooky and neat. the rest of the haunted mansion is kind of lame. the first part is definatly scary. and also, they have nice gardens.

i was going to go to ripley's believe it or not, in cavendish, but i was late getting out of work.

work is lame.

i have not been able to stop scrapbooking for the past week. it has taken over my life. i am going to start scrapbooking as soon as i finish typing this probably.

myself and ms. megan mackay. cassie can also be seen in the water, freaking out because she was being attacked by evil wasps.

brad, being just too cool.

cassie, meagan and i doing our slutty poses. cassie apparently practices at home. and i probably should start.

I have returned from my camping excursion with many bug bites and bruises to show for it. The bug bites are probably my own fault, apparently I suck at applying bug spray. The bruises are only because the ground is so bumpy and it is impossible to fit an air mattress and an air pump onto a motorcycle, along with all the other camping needs.

We took lots of pictures, but was my favorite of the bunch.

it's really strange looking at pictures of yourself when you were younger and seeing how your face has changed, or if it has. i like how some features stay with you, and stay the same, and other features disappear with age.i wonder what my face will look like as an old woman. i imagine my nose will stay the same.. add some wrinkles, sink my eyes in a little. i'll probably have white hair too.

hum.

Fri, 25 May 2007 02:26:15 GMT

i like eating those apricot slices. my mom bought a big bag of them today. i like eating them because they feel like eating people. is that weird?

Wed, 01 Nov 2006 19:46:05 GMT

i'm in halifax
and i love it.

Thu, 28 Sep 2006 19:36:36 GMT

my sister called me yesterday at work. and i thought it was weird because she would never call me at work.

she called to tell me she is pregnant.
and i was the first one to know.
i felt special.
and excited.

i can't wait to be an aunt.
man, i love babies.

this also means i might just have to go to school in bc.
just because i want to be the baby-sitter.

Thu, 07 Sep 2006 17:21:37 GMT

still in BC. just hanging out.
i was in victoria for 3 days. the bus ride was so long and my brother decided to fall asleep on my shoulder which made it even more uncomfortable. although, i amused myself by trying to stick things in his nose without him noticing.
i went to china town! the oldest china town in canada to be exact.

me, being chubby and standing beside the pacific ocean

my brother and i in the back of the "sports car"

china town!

the zahavichs

these bears were all over victoria. they are kind of tacky.

our stop overs in nanaimo were spent at a local tim hortons.

also, my life plan for the next year has changed again.

i am going back to charlottetown in a week. working until the end of october, then moving to halifax. i don't have a place there yet, but my brother is going to go back and look around for me. so if anyone is looking for a roommate in halifax or knows someone who is, let me know.

that's it!

Thu, 31 Aug 2006 02:57:00 GMT

so i'm in bc.
and i have no friends. but i have my sister, so that is nice.
maybe tomorrow i will work on making friends.

also. jesse cook is playing in town tonight and today i saw him playing his guitar outside the theatre but my sister wouldn't stop the car so i could go say hi. so... i was almost friends with jesse cook. that is my story of the day.

also, i went to the beach today and apparently there are starfish the size of my face out here. pretty neat, i thought.

i am off to watch movies. toodles.

Fri, 25 Aug 2006 01:31:53 GMT

Tomorrow is going to be the best day of this entire week.
This is what I have decided.
I will make tomorrow great.

Wed, 16 Aug 2006 17:25:41 GMT

Today has been the most wonderfully unproductive day I have had in a while.

I woke up at 11, had some breakfast, and then went outside to read. I was later forced inside by a swarm of wasps that have decided to make my front porch their home. Then, I decided I could use some exercise and went for a run. It was then that I realized just how out of shape I really am. I just ate lunch and am now thinking about eating some fruit that my mom bought.

I love days like these. Although I do work at 5, but that's only 4 hours. And I work with the new girl, Lindsey. She bothers me a bit. Mostly because all she ever talks about is boys and how they all want her. She is not one bit modest. But we get along fine otherwise.

That seems to be all.

Mon, 07 Aug 2006 03:32:41 GMT

it has been almost a month.
i doubt he knows that, but i like to keep track of these things.

my brother is home for the weekend with his girlfriend.
she is so sweet. i like her lots. i hope they get married. haha, i say that about every girl he dates. i guess i just want him to be happy. they invited me to go to the new water park with them tomorrow. it should be alright.

i fly to bc in 23 days.
i may just stay out there. no, maybe not. but maybe...

Fri, 07 Jul 2006 05:09:46 GMT

being happy is sweet!

got my plane ticket to BC.
got a date with a cute boy.
got paid today!

Sun, 02 Jul 2006 22:42:21 GMT

so life has ups and downs. and i think i may have just hit an up.
i like a boy, and i think he likes me back.
my friends are the best any girl could ask for.
i love my job, and the people i work with.
it's summer and i love the sun.
and.... i never have to go back to high school ever again.

yeah!

Thu, 27 Apr 2006 21:01:30 GMT

so i'm still in the dominican. it's pretty sweet
i just got back from swimming with dolphins. it was neat.

my forehead is peeling, because i got burnt real bad... so now if i shake my head enough, skin flakes come off and it looks like snow. isn't that nice?

ok bye.

Wed, 22 Feb 2006 03:01:10 GMT

I feel like I'm kind of out of touch with everything/everyone.
And this applying to university thing is very stressful. So many documents and fees and annoying crap. Anyway, I applied to UBC and UVIC. So basically my plan is to move to the other end of the country and only return when it's absolutely neccessary.

I love calculus. Only because of Mr.MacDonald. And because it is just so satisfying to put a big QED at the end of a nice long problem that it took FOREVER to solve. Man... that's a good feeling.

Also... prom is evil. Prom makes me think about getting a date. And getting a date is hard, and lame. It completely goes against my "Boys are dumb" stance. But whatever, if I have to go alone I will. All I really care about is getting my hair done anyway.

Oh my God. Kevin is calling me again. I don't understand why he doesn't stop trying after the 5th time. Jeeezzzz.... I need a restraining order or something.

Sun, 05 Feb 2006 17:09:00 GMT

I went to a party last night and everyone was drinking but I, being the responsible person I am, wasn't. Anyway.... there was this girl.. I think she's in grade 11 and she was being loud and obnoxious and she had sex outside and her shirt was all dirty. (GROSS!) Whatever, point of the story: I called her a whore and she got mad and it was the funniest thing ever.

That's it.

Sun, 22 Jan 2006 01:59:10 GMT

Just woke up from a sweet nap.
Now I'm just sipping some hot chocolate, contemplating studying.
Hmm...
