It's been a while since I've written on here. It's actually been quite a while since I've written any thoughts down. I usually write a hard copy journal as well but I'm lacking in that department too. I've been off school for about a month now. Let's just say that I'm glad it's over. This last semester was harder than I had anticipated, very stressful and intense. My marks are not what I would call good (C's across the board), it just reflects failure that's for sure. I'm pretty sure my parents are disappointed too, they are just to nice to actually admit it. I guess I'm just happy it's done and over with, not really anything I can do know.

The plan is to be a teacher one day and I'm trying to fill up all my extra-curricular activity requirements. I've started volunteering every thursday with a teacher that taught my sister in elementary school. She's so awesome, I am so grateful that she's letting me be a part of her classroom. She actually has me participating and interacting with the kids which is totally cool. 

The weather has been totally crazy here. Toronto usually has warm weather by this time, but today I had to put my sweater on to grab the mail. Almost June and I'm wearing my parka...seriously. I usually go sit outside in the afternoons (When I don't have to work) and read. I'm currently reading The Chronicles of Narnia. I'm on the 7th installment. If there is ever a book you need to read in your life time I would recommend C.S. Lewis's collection. They are just so detailed and descriptive. The stories just take over, makes the novel hard to put down. I actually went to see The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian last week. It was really good. I hadn't watched the first one (The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe) but the graphics in this one was amazing, I couldn't believe what I was watching. Sorry, sometimes I get carried away, I'm such a literary junky, I'm the girl who loves the books they make you read in school. Lame, I know but whatever, keeps me sane, nothing like a good book sometimes.

Today I watched GH for the first time in weeks, literally, I'm not lying. I was reading on the BH episode discussion, that Logan blessed the screen for more than two seconds today, so I thought I would check it out. I was not disappointed, does the man get hotter every time I see him? Maybe it has to do with the fact that it's just been so long. 

I bought the season 4, 5, and 6 of Dawson's Creek! Yay! for me, they were literally $16 each, how could I go wrong? So I've been spending some of my time watching those. I watched all the season finales these last few weeks. (Grey's, Supernatural, OTH.) I'm pretty sure that Grey's had be crying like a baby, I'm not going to lie, the season started off really slow, and dare I say a little boring, but the finale was very good.  My secret love for the Izzy and Alex relationship was awakened, that's for sure. Supernatural was great as usual, can't get enough of Dean and his antics. I'm not surprised that he's on his way to hell, it would have been too predictable if Sam had saved him right at the last minute, but the episode was intense none the less. One Tree Hill was good too. My sister and I were trying to guess who Lucas called at the end, and she's convinced it's Peyton, but I have a crazy feeling that it just might be Brooke. I would definitely hate it if Leyton become one again, because I'm totally on the hate Peyton Band Wagon. Anywho, I guess we'll have to wait 3 long months until we get some answers. It's funny how a fictional creation can consume so much of your time, sometimes I feel like I'm living through some of the characters. Did I mention I was a TV junky as well? 

So, lets recap:

Book Junky? CHECK
TV Junky? CHECK
Movie Junky? CHECK
Music Junky? CHECK

I'm officially the biggest junky in the world! I just had to add those last two because I'm sure that would have came up sooner or later. It's sad I know. Wow! This turned out way longer than I had anticipated. I think I will end it ...........here. (I'm easily amused, I know)

Well, I spent my Valentine's day with a few of my SUPER AWESOME friends, we organized a little date, which consisted of lunch and a movie. Lunch was, well appetizing and the movie was worth the $11 I spent to see it (still can't believe it's that expensive to see a movie). We went to see STEP UP 2: THE STREETS. Can I say that I just loved it, LOVED IT. If you really like they first one, the second one is like 10x better, IMO. The dancing was so hardcore, movies like this make me want to run out and sigh up for some dancing classes or just blast the stereo and dance my little heart out...alone, without witnesses of course. The music is just awesome, I had to go to HMV and purchase the sound track, which I've been listening to non-stop since Thursday. Who needs boys on Valentine's day when you can watch an awesome movie with you're best ladies? I'm also totally in love with Chase, played by Robert Hoffman, but I have this habit of falling for the main fictional character deemed "badboy with a golden heart"  *cough* *cough* Logan Hayes *cough* *cough*

I rather not talk about GH. It's a really soar topic at the moment. I haven't really been watching any episodes lately, Thanks to the ladies at SAY and BH for keeping me up to date.

Seriously? More snow!?!I'm pretty sure that I shoveled the driveway THREE TIMES already. It just hasn't stop since yesterday and it's still going right now. I have to say that it looks really beautiful outside though, and it's not to cold either which is good. Just the thought of going to school tomorrow is giving me shivers. I'm hoping for a 'snow day' tomorrow, I really don't feel like going to school. Just the bus ride will kill me, the bad weather brings out the worst in people!

Anywho, GH was great today! It felt like it was summer '07 all over again where everything is good in the world of LnL3. And Logan + No shirt = Yum! Logan was all in all fabulous to watch. I don't care what anyone says LUnny doesn't NOT have the chemistry that LnL3 has. Actually I have to say that overall today's GH episode was pretty awesome, and I haven't said that in so long.

I also watched OTH last night...it was great! I love this show so much! I can't stand Brooke's mother Bitch-toria...haha and the Naley nanny is uber-creepy. I'm actually starting to like Quintin, he's growing on me...I really like that he's trying now...and don't even get me started on Peyton...or Mouth and his boss...uugggk.

Hoping for a snow day!

Just finished watching the superbowl. It was a pretty good game, I didn't really care who won, I was kind of going back and forth between the two.  Giants win by the way. Good? Bad? You choose. Tomorrow is another day full of school and work. I have 2 lengthy assignments, one essay and a mid term all this week. Thank goodness it's only one more week until 'reading week', I just can't wait until this dreadful next few days are OVER! The weather is kind of warm, considering we had a HUGE snow storm on friday night here in Toronto. I took my little cousin out today to make snowmen. You know you're getting old when...gosh, I wish a could be a kid again. 

Chittio,

Well, I am a HUGE GH fan and all the spoilers I've been reading lately have been depressing me a bit. My poor, poor Logan. I've decided to just take it as it comes, no matter how ridiculously LAME the writers are. Anywho, on a lighter not, here is something I got in an email today, I though it was rather nice and I wanted to share: 

This Type Love by Saul Williams

I want a love like me thinking of you thinking of me thinking of you type love or me telling my friends more than I've ever admitted to myself about how I feel about you type love or hating how jealous you are but loving how much you want me all to yourself type love or seeing how your first name just sounds so good next to my last name. And shit- I wanted to see how far I could get without calling you and I barely made it out of my garage.

See, I want a love that makes me wait until she falls asleep then wonder if she's dreaming about us being in love type love or who loves the other more or what she's doing at this exact moment or slow dancing in the middle of our apartment to the music of our hearts. Closing my eyes and imagining how a love so good could just hurt so much when she's not there and shit I love not knowing where this love is headed type love.

And check this-

I want to place those little post-it notes all around the house so she never forgets how much I love her type love
then not have enough ink in my pen to write all the love type love and hope I make her feel as good as she makes me feel
and I want to deal with my friends making fun of me the way I made fun of them when they went through the same kind of love type love. The only difference is this is one of those real type loves and just like in high school I want to spend hours on the phone not saying shit and then fall asleep and then wake up with her right next to me and smell her all up in my covers type love and I want to try counting the ways I love her then lose count in the middle just so I could start all over again and I want to celebrate one of those one-month anniversaries even though they ain't really anniversaries but doing it just 'cause it makes her happy type love

and check this-

I want to fall in love with the melody the phone plays when our numbers dial in type love and talk to you until I lose my breath, she leaves me breathless, but with the expanding of my lungs I inhale all of her back into me.

I want a love that makes me need to change my cell phone calling plan to something that allows me to talk to her longer 'cause in all honesty, I want to avoid one of them high cell phone bill type loves and I don't want a love that makes me regret how small my hands are I mean the lines on my palms don't give me enough time to love you as long as I'd like to type love and I want a love that makes me st-st-st-stutter just thinking about how strong this love is type love and I want a love that makes me want to cut off all my hair. Well maybe not all of the hair, maybe like I'd cut the split ends and trim the mustache but it would still be a symbol of how strong my love is for her.

I kind of feel comfortable now so I even be fantasize about walking out on a green light just dying to get hit by a car just so I could lose my memory, get transported to some third world country just to get treated and somehow meet up again with you so I could fall in love with you in a different language and see if it still feels the same type love.

I want a love that's as unexplainable as she is…

If you read through all that, I hope you enjoyed it. I am SUPER excited about the superbowl tomorrow, although my ultimate fave team (Cowboys) won't be there. A whole bunch of us are going to get together, eat a bunch of fattening foods, and drink some beer to mark this yearly occasion.  May the best team win! We had a major snow storm yesterday, enough to close the university down, so I had the day off from classes, but don't get me wrong, there was still "homework", if you will. Anywho tomorrow morning I'm driving downtown to do a little research for a project I have to do for my social science class. I have to take pictures of an area that has a lot of old architecture, should be interesting. Until next time!

P.S. Thought I'd Include a picture to show my JD support but I can't for the life of me figure out how to add a picture
