I got called a porn star today.

I don’t know how to take that.

Then I also got called a runway / supermodel.

What the heck.

Fact of the day: I am repulsive.

I need to talk to you

Please want to talk to me.

I had my fist soccer game in a very long time last night. Needless to say, I am very out of shape. Biking to Milton twice does not make up for a year of being unfit. Hopefully I’ll be inspired to go running on the trail more often. I also hope this painting job helps keep me in some sort of shape.

Today I ventured to Oakville. The drive was nice. It made me realize that summer has full potential to be awesome. I think today would have been the perfect day to kick off cliff jumping season; which needs to be done this year for sure. The last time I went was a couple of years ago I believe. We went when it was dark, windy, cold, and raining. I ended up not jumping because I was cold enough just in the rain, if I had of been soaked in the water as well, I would have had an even worse night than I did.

I need money. I need friends. I need a license. I need time.

If these walls could sing.

So I did not get into George Brown this year. I was bummed out for a little bit but I knew it was bound to happen. I haven’t had all the practice I really need. That’s why I’m not going to let this discourage me. I knew I needed more experience before I could get in. That’s why this year I am taking it off from school but not giving up on what I want to do. I will continue to practice, practice, practice, making things with thread and fabric. I do not need to be in school to do what I am passionate about; although it would help. I shall try again next year!

In near future of this summer, July 31st and August 1st to be exact (maybe one day earlier to a day later), Bradley and I will be traveling to Montreal for the Oshega festival; seeing a plethora of sweet bands in a sweet place. Stoked! [Everyone’s invited]

Here we are after dark

So I’ve been stingy with the posts as summer has started.

A quick overview of the past few weeks:

- Awesome day with bikes and birthday beers with Jess. I was going to bike to Milton to hang out but she was super awesome and picked me up.

- My sister then bet me how long it would actually take me to bike to Milton a couple days later -> 1.5h

- I got a job with Student Works Painting

- I started looking for places to inhabit with Alycia and Cait.

- House warming party for Lydia and Rachel in Guelph. Lots of fun. I miss them. I also miss Hanging out with Kristina who was able to pick us up and go to Guelph.

- I helped my mom put up and tear down the set of the play she was just in. We got to take home someone’s old desk. I have now deemed it my sewing table; Harrison. The machine has yet to be set up, but it won’t take long. I just need to get my hands on some fabric first.

- My sister and I have come up with a plan to get into business together. (stay tuned on that one!)

- I was supposed to start soccer on Sunday; but it was mother’s day and I was in Brampton for that.

- I went to watch Brad play softball. I ended up playing… and I think in turn joining the team. I now play church league softball (I have NEVER played baseball/ softball, before today, in my life; I wasn’t as terrible as I thought I would be. In fact I even caught a ball and got someone out. I am also not religious in the slightest. Shhh.)

Brad and I have come up with a Summer To Do list. I cannot remember what exactly was on it but as it comes back to me I will try to remember to write it down for myself.

A few things I can remember on it are:

- Picnics

- Science Center

- Zoo

- Make waffles

- Camping

- Beach

- Scene Fest

- Swimming

I don’t know why I can’t remember. There were at least 5 more. Oh well.
