so then, one more day till i take off on my big trip. i figured i owe a pretty big blog to make up for what i anticipate will be two weeks without a word. cause apparently the internet is still wicked expensive in denmark, and my friend sanne only goes online at home like, once a week. of course, my parents are probably gonna shit bricks if i don't cut back on my internet time. we've got stupid dial-up, and my grandparents call here practically every hour, and they get a little nutty if the phone is busy. and i'm not much of a night owl, so before you even suggest that one, no. however, once i start work, i can just do updates from there on my breaks. see, i've got it all under control.

went out to good ole jr's friday night. actually sarah and i started our little adventure at dooly's, but i guess here in woodstock on a weekend, at midnight you must go to jr's. so that's just what we did. saw lots of people that i graduated with, some of my schoolmates parents, and a few kids that were a year behind me. still not really used to that yet - i mean, all last summer i had to put up with "are you really old enough to be here?" and then I SAID IT to someone else. that made me feel old. i'm never going to ask again. so anyway, i did notice one big difference between school bars and the home bars -- not as much of the old pick up goin on. i'm assuming that's due to the fact that most of us are living with our parents again. and while my parents have loosened up a lot the past year or so, i'm certain they wouldn't be too cool with me coming home with the bar stink in my hair and liquor on my breath truckin some guy up to my room for the night. besides, i never did it at school, why start now? ;)

another funny thing though, is how i still remember people from my hometown the way i remembered them in high school. for instance, that boy that used to pick his nose during class in grade 6 waited on me at pizza hut. that was disturbing on so many levels.

i guess that's enough for now, i've got to go get ready for church. they'll be a whole lot of "glad your home" and "how was school" to deal with today. the elderly are very curious.

mum and amanda are leaving for hali tomorrow. so i guess i won't get to (have to?) see much of them until sunday, after which i leave post haste for denmark. starting to get wicked excited. really

haven't heard anything form the bagtown police yet. wonder if i will.

had a great conversation with my grandfather craig the other day. he said "you know, when my father was my age, he was dead." the funniest part about that was, he wasn't trying to be funny. you gotta love him. typical backwoods carleton county-ite. drives a half ton, goes four wheelin' with the boys, coffee a buckinghams corner store every mornin'.....and he just can't figure out these kids today :)
someone asked if i was his daughter, which makes me wonder who looks fifty - me or him? i'm guessing it's him. i know i'm all mature and everything, but geeze.

robert, in case you're reading this, good luck on your exams. buddy is too stressed out for his own good. i would prescribe a little ganja. works every time.

yeah, you know what i'm sayin.....

i'm writing from good old woodstock, nb. good thing too, cause that sackville is all of a sudden a dangerous place. you may scoff, but i had an intruder in the night last night. kinda scary, makes jodie's window story a lot more frightening. here is my tale:

i finished my last exam around 9:30 saturday night, headed back to my room to drink all of my beer so i could unplug my fridge to defrost. proceeded to have an ok time at the pub, not a lot to report there. came home by myself at 1:30 (since no one else wanted to leave yet), got naked and went to bed.
sometime after this, i don't know exactly when due to tiredness and drunken stupor, i was woken up by my door opening. someone stuck their head in and turned on the light. i look up to see this tall-ish black guy looking in my room. he turned out the light and left, and since i was pretty confused, i just went back to sleep, not really thinking anything of it.
today, as i was packing my room up, mr. tim hikade comes looking for me with a police man. i was a little concerned - i didn't have a black out of my drunk adventures, so i know i haven't done anything wrong. however, my late night visitor was not so well behaved. turns out he went into tim's room and stole his computer, burner, and all of the cords WHILE HE WAS SLEEPING!!!! apparently he also was at drummond's room, but drummond said "who's there?" and the guy left without ever turning on the light. so....i'm the only one who actually saw the guy, but i don't really remember what he looks like, except that he was black. i remember this because i thought he was the guy who lived in my first year room the year before me. and the most scary part of all - he could have gotten in the fire door in dungeon because nobody took the tape off and it was open all night!

that's all i've got to say. pretty tuckered out from my trip (and all the psychological trauma)

later days

right now i'm sitting in jodie's room while she packs. i should be studying, or packing my own shit. but you know, why worry. it will all be over in 48hrs. i can't figure out a lot of this blogger stuff. i tried changing some of the code, but it doesn't seem to be working. ah well, i've got all summer to figure it out.

i'm sad. this 'see you later' stuff really sucks.

so....yeah. this is a blog. we'll see just how long this lasts. i got to thinking today that i'm not gonna see jodie for a pretty long time (possibly 4 months), and that i will probably be checking her blog all the time. then i thought that maybe she would like to be able to check the internet to see what i'm up to this summer. so i figured that i might as well give it a try, even if it ends up that jodie is the only one who reads it because i don't have any other friends. besides, i have to prove that i'm able to do all kinds of computer things to get into the program i want at grad school (library and information sciences for all those in the dark out there), so why not do something kinda fun while learning.

just realized that i use the word 'so' too much. i'll work on that.

one exam to go until i'm free for the summer. eleven days until denmark. a little over three months until the big 2-0.

that's pretty much it....

an assortment of thoughts from my messed up head -- go on, analyze me.....i DARE you
