It's Been Awhile...

Wow, I really haven't posted on here in a LONG time. I just came across my blog randomly today, after I completely forgot about it, so I decided to write a post!

So I'm sort of in a transition time right now, getting ready to work at Disney World for a year! I start December 6th and I'll be working attractions at the Canada Pavilion in Epcot. I could not be more excited. But I don't want to waste my time just waiting to go to Disney World, so I've been making the best of being home for a few months. I'm finally going to get my driver's license (hopefully)! My test is on November 7th, so I've been practicing and I really hope I get it. I've also been working at a local theatre at the Front of House as a ticket taker, which has been great because I get to be around the theatre which I love. The people who work there are also so nice and a lot of fun. I'm also going to the Toronto Summit through tmcyouth next weekend and I'm excited! I've always wanted to go to one of these summits but never could because they were always during a show I was in. Then I get to visit Melanie in London for Halloween! I'm super excited because I haven't seen her house yet, and I haven't seen her in almost a year! I'm also glad to have plans for Halloween, because I thought I would have to stay home and hand out candy, which is so lame and I hate doing it.

And probably the thing I'm most looking forward to (other then Disney) is going to Chicago to visit Kirsty and then going to Prin to visit everyone there and see the England Abroad Production! I miss all my Prin friends more than words can say and I cannot WAIT to see them. It is going to be an amazing week.

Well it's actually really late right now, so I should probably go to bed. I'm going to try to post more on here, but we'll see if that actually happens. See you when I see you!

Yay!

I finally get to see my friends! I have not seen my Canadian friends in a year and I finally get to see them tomorrow! (well at least some of them) I was going absolutely crazy at home with my family. Don't get me wrong, I love my family, but after awhile you just need your friends.

I plan to keep busy from now on too! I've been pretty good about it, except for a few days when I was really tired and just stayed in the house and watched movies and played video games. I've actually kept busy doing some crafts. I've been making a lot of jewelry out of this kit thing my mom has. I've made like 15 earrings...some of which will be Christmas presents. I'm actually pretty proud of them! They don't look half bad. I've also been making these friendship bracelet things out of colored string. There are like a billion different designs you can do, and a lot of them are really cool.

I also had to find a song and 4 monologues for a theatre class I'm taking in the winter. The monologues have to be a contemporary comedic and dramatic piece and a classical comedic and dramatic piece. I've found my contemporary ones, but the problem with classical monologues is that I don't really understand them when I'm just reading them, so I'm going to have to do a bit of research before I decide. I have found my song though. It's Meadowlark from The Baker's Wife. It's such a pretty song, I hope I do it justice.

I'm getting really excited for this next quarter. I'm already social head of my house and taking 3 classes I'm really excited about, while I'm also auditioning for the One Acts and Les Mis as well as applying to be an R.A. So if everything goes as planned then this is going to be a very busy but exciting quarter! I also have an awesome room with two awesome girls, so I'm really excited for that as well. I can't wait!

:)

I pretty much have the best boyfriend ever. So....yeah. Done and done.

Side note

Ok so I forgot to write this in my last post. My family came home and ate all my amazing nanaimo bars! So I guess I just have to make some more. This time I should do 2 batches, because they just go so fast since they are so amazing. Yay nanaimo bars!

Family together again

My whole family is finally back together in Canada! That hasn't happened in a year! (Which is really my fault because the rest of them have been home in way less then a year) We haven't done anything all together yet cause my mom takes two days to "adjust", but hopefully we will tomorrow. Me, my mom and my brother want to the The Princess and the Frog, but my dad doesn't want to see it, so we'll see what happens. Church is probably our best option.

So I've been looking for a new perfume because the one I have been using for years (Daisy by Marc Jacobs) costs a lot of money, I'm getting kinda tired of it, and SOMEONE says they aren't even sure if they like it. So today when my dad, my brother and I went shopping, I stopped at Body Shop and bought this Vanilla Body Mist stuff that smells AMAZING. And it was only like $14, which is WAY cheaper then Daisy is. I definitely like it, so hopefully a certain someone will as well.

I get to see my Canadian friends soon! They are all still in exams, but as soon as they are done, it is on. I haven't seen them in a year, which is way too long. I miss them and need to catch up with them because I suck at staying in touch. Yay!

NANAIMO BARS!!!

So I just made nanaimo bars and they are the flipping best dessert in the world. Seriously, anyone in the U.S. who has never had one before, you are really missing out. I made them before for Paul for our 1 year anniversary and they were alright, but I just made them again and they are AMAZING. So proud of myself. So if anyone at Prin ever wants to try some, talk to me and I can hook you up. They are very filling though, which I guess in a way is good because it stops me from eating too many. Guylian chocolates on the other hand...I could eat a whole box in a day. Which is bad because they cost like 6 or 7 dollars a box. But dear god are they good. My far my favorite chocolates in the world.

So when I went shopping with my dad I bought some Burt's Bees because I ran out. But they didn't have the normal kind, so I bought the honey Burt's Bees. It flipping smells like baby powder, so I don't like wearing it because then I smell baby powder all day since my mouth is right under my nose. (Which you probably already knew) And let me tell you, after awhile, baby powder does not smell that good. So that was a waste of my dad's money. Sorry dad!

Gross

Colorado

So I just came back from visiting Paul in Colorado a few days ago. I had never been to Colorado before and it is beautiful! He lives on a actual mountain in Breckinridge, which is awesome, but also VERY high, so I had to get used to the elevation change. I didn't take any pictures while I was on top of the mountain, (which I'm sort of mad about) but I did take a few pictures while Paul was driving me to Denver to fly home to Canada. They aren't the best pictures ever because I took then in a moving car, but here they are anyways.

This is a bit blurry, but it's a waterfall that has been frozen. It's really cool.

I was trying to get Paul to smile, but he just wanted to be a goof instead.
