I seem to be a sucker for the sad songs..

Switchfoot- Dare You To Move
How many times have you seen 9 live?
Never seen Kieth Urban, and unlikely to, as tickets are ridiculously expensive.
What is a good memory you have involving 2?
Discussing why girls are a sucker for James Blundt with one of my guy friends.
Is there a song of 8 that makes you sad?
Faith Hill... If My Heart Had Wings.. it reminds me that, alas, it does not, and why do so many people live so far away? It also makes me happy though... so....

The curse strikes again
Well, it has happened again. Yet another creepy old man has hit on me. It has become such an epidemic that my mom actually suggested to me that I pray and ask God to take this affliction from me.
So church was really good today. Really good.
Then after church, a TON of us (like about 25-30) stayed and all ate together, including a couple of old homeless men who had come in.
Well, one of them stared at me all through dinner. I was sitting very far away and was doing my level best to not look at him. Then he calls all the way across the table, introduces himself and says "We'll meet again."
Eeek!
Then if this is not enough, I overhear this conversation between him and one of the older men in the church. (Closer people to them filled me in on all the creepy details I missed.)
Creepy man: I want to know something about HER. (Points at me). Is she married?
Christian man: Well, she is really young, and going to school. (Tone of voice suggesting that he was actually saying, "ew! she is a third of your age you pervert, that is totally innapropriate!).
Creepy Man: Well, that's not what I asked. I asked if she was married. I am not seeing anyone.
So my reaction to this was to get my cousin Robbie to act like my boyfriend. We sat on the same chair, he put his arm around me, I put my head on his shoulder and we called each other honey and dear.
But he never stopped staring at me.
So my dad is at the moment buying him a bus ticket to Calgary.

You Know That The Guy Who Supposedly Likes You Doesn't Listen To A Thing You Say When...
He says that all people going into your chosen career path are "the most heartless and cruel people ever."
Excuse me?

My Workload this Term
I have now been to one of each class I have this term. I was wondering why I felt stressed, so I made a list of things I have to do for school.
- 15 hours of class a week
- 2 full days of field placement
- Read 8 complete textbooks, all of which are directly related to most of the assignments, so it can't slide
- 7 tests (not too bad there I guess
- 14 papers, which will total about 95 pages of writing
- 3 group projects
And all of the due dates are piled on top of each other. There are several things where 5 things are due that week!
I hate this. How are we supposed to practise self care with these demands?

I seem to be the first to post the news...
Well, after church today, Robbie told me the big news!
Saryn had her baby at 3 AM last night!!!!!!
It is a baby girl.
However, being a man, he did not know anything else useful, such as name, weight, or looks.
But it is a baby girl!

The Report
So I was told to fess up on how it went, so here you go:
Well, we alctually had a lot of fun. The film on whales was really really nice. I learned a lot, and it was so magestic. We whispered comments during the movie, so it totally wasn't awkward at all. The film only lasted 40 minutes, so afterwards we went to Timmie's, and had a bite to eat and chatted for another 40 minutes, and had fun trading stories and laughing. Then he dropped me off at home, and it totally wasn't awkward at all. I had a nice, fun, relaxing time, just as I'd hoped.
Then the text messages started.
Incidentally, why must conversations like this needs be via test message? It costs me 25 cents apiece! What is wrong with in person?
So first of all he thanked me for going out and said he'd had fun, and said next time we should make it a 'real date.'
So I ran over to Julia's and was like "He paid! What's the difference between tonight and a real date?" She suggested asking him that, so I did.
The answer was longer than a 40 minute movie and a night out on the town.
So... I dithered for a few minutes, but decided that I am less interested than he is, and he isn't a Christan, and I would be a terribly unloyal and unaffectionate girlfriend, as I like other people more, and would ditch him for one of them, and don't even want to hold his hand.
And as two dates leads to three, which leads to four.....
I texted back that I had lots of fun, and would like to hang out again, but only as friends, as I need a Christan boyfriend.
And it has been an hour, and no more texts.
It was so much fun! Why did it have to get awkward??

Revenue Canada
So for the last two years, I have accidentally filed my taxes well over six months too late. Apparently, I earned my way onto a government hit list.
Four months before taxes are due, Revenue Canada sends me all the forms I need, instructions on how to complete them, and a calander of when they are all due.
They didn't waste any time at the end of 2006.

A different variation to the same old theme...
So. You know all the creepy old man stories I told all last summer?
Enter a new, more pleasent variety.
So over the summer I met Bill, a manager from Cold Lake. Well, after the manager in Westmount finally got fired in September, Bill moved to Edmonton and took over his job. I like dropping into the store every so often, and we talk and stuff, and when I worked there for a day, he got my number, and I got the vibes that he knew I was a girl (doesn't happen often, but I usually pick up on it when it does).
So I popped in there for a few moments today, and then walked home, and after I'd been home for a while, I got a text that asked if I liked IMAX movies.
So I phoned and left a voice mail that said that yes I did. (Can't make it too easy!)
So he texted back and invited me to see the whales.
So I am planning on going out and having fun. A nice fun, friendly date sounds like it would be... pleasent and relaxing.
And Bill already got a few points by not repeating the mistakes that others have previously made. He made an effort to try to get to know me. He actually invited me to something I'd like instead of the bar. And this is only just a date, not walking into the whole quagmire of the relationship blah blah gossip blah blah thing as if it was someone from camp.
