another thing for my summer bucket
buy a disposable camera & fill it with pictures of everything that I do/see every day or every week. Like my bedroom, car, UFV, Ben’s house, Kim & Nate’s, friends & etc. I figure it’ll be really interesting to look at in the future. Especially since this is my last semester at UFV and I’ll be moving out in the fall.

“I am still determined to be cheerful and happy, in whatever situation I may be;...”
– Martha Washington
just a note to say that this time in my life is really nice. I am really enjoying it. I read a Kurt Vonnegut quote about a year ago, and I think about it a fair bit because he has a great point.
“And I urge you to please notice when you are happy, and exclaim or murmur or think at some point, ‘If this isn’t nice, I don’t know what is.”

productive procrastinator
When I procrastinate, I usually like to have a “reason” for it. Incidentally, I am also very fond of organizing. I organize when I’m stressed or overwhelmed and I organize when I’m bored. I like it. When I’m procrastinating (on statistics that I’m 8 weeks behind in, and on a psyc final I have yet to study for), I organize. In grade 12, my high school had the...

wooop. I like everything but statistics. It’s no wonder I’m behind.

This summer
- give up the Internet for a couple of weeks and embrace life with things that actually make me feel happy/productive/successful

- bike lots (including Stanley park)

Hospital Beds
Spent 5 hours in the ER with Ben tonight and left with more questions than when we went in. He’s okay - or at least not in rough shape. I hate spending time in hospitals.
sad songs.
The other day I was thinking about things that truly make you feel. (Hold on for a second, I hope this isn’t as corny as it sounds.) I’ve have always been one to scoff (even if inwardly) when people talk about songs that make them cry. I’ve considered it to be a pansy sort of thing to do, and I never had. I think grade 12 was the first time that I did. From that day, there are...
