Quidam Quidam
La nuit recule. D'un rêve à l'autre tu valses. Du creux de toi c'est bien le mal qui dresse tes silences.

Oh man, the countdown to Corteo is on! Less than a month.


For some reason, I've been really tired, exhausted, all week, even though I've been getting plenty of sleep. It's frustrating and I hope it goes away...

I woke up this morning at 7:30, on my own, without my alarm. I immediately thought that I'd for sure slept through my alarm, because it's a school day, and I haven't woken up later than 6 for a school day since maybe a week before Reading break. I panicked, but damn it was nice to roll over for another ten minutes!

So, looks like I'll be back in Victoria for one more summer.

Yum, guilt-free ice cream.

What is it about books that I can't resist?
I'm seriously tempted to buy a bunch online, I've got a list a mile long, even though I have eight that I haven't finished yet, and another four or so that I'm re-reading. Plus all my school reading, of course.
Oh, but they're so shiny...

I miss diving.
Sometimes I wonder, what if? Now is one of those times.

I just realized something. With Hallowe'en over, that means Christmas is next.
And that means GINGERBREAD!!!!

It's October!
You know what that means!
It's my birthday soon! Dinner at Canoe club on the 13th with Laura to celebrate our (almost) joint dates of birth!

In the meantime:
     -School started! So far so good, even if Commerce is waaayy more work than I was expecting. I'm glad I transfered, and so far I think I like my classes.
     -I love love LOVE my new place. It's on campus, super close to my classes, and it's new and has a great view. What's not to love?

This is my pineapple plant. Isn't he cute??

...Also, new layout. Check it out.

After a twenty-three minute phone call to my mom, I feel better.



Everything's changing- new school, new housing, new computer, new program... September will bring many new things. But it's not the be all and end all. I just need to remember that.

My spoils from Book Off:



And my new place come September:

Last Monday I started my new job, which is all sorts of fun. Seriously, it's proven that this city is small- if you don't know someone, you know someone who does.
I went from one beautiful workplace to another. I really need to keep up this trend :) I'm learning so much about the local history and historical figures, and I'm actually enjoying it. Ha, sciences humaines, take that! Not that I remember anything at all from those courses...
On thursday (or maybe it was wednesday?) there was some sort of motorcycle awareness something or other... Anyway, there were lots of motorcycles, and some MLAs went for rides around the block.


Yesterday was quite entertaining, and even educational too! Got to see Jen before she runs off to Van again, which was obviously great. Saw the Greece Imax, which I highly highly recommend. And then shenanigans at the QV.
Like so:

And by "we", I mean Laura, Em and Megan- I just took the pictures. Our bonhomme is made from cream, pepper, macaroni and berry sauce. And a ketchup container for his hat:D

I can't help it. No matter what, rabbits will always remind me of Watership Down.


...And it's really not fair for people to be selling Girl Guide cookies in front of the fountain. Especially for those of us with no will power when it comes to cookies. Really.
