Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town Waiting for someone or something to show you the way Tired of lying in the sunshine Staying home to watch the rain And you are young and life is long And there is time to kill today And then one day you find Ten years have got behind you No one

2007-09-15T16:48:00.000-07:00

Growing up. They say you never stop growing - the whole "always grow, grow all ways" thing rings true. I find it hard to believe I won't ever take another university course, or live in HUB mall again. I have all the "adult things" to worry about, things you don't even realize you have to deal with, until you are done school, and no longer have parents supporting you. Health care, property

Perspective...

2007-05-02T17:09:00.000-07:00

1. Today is my parents 26th wedding anniversary. That is pretty amazing these days. I really hope when I do finally find the man of my dreams (lets be realistic...how about the man of my realities haha), I hope that I will have to opportunity and luck (or maybe just skilled communication) to spend at least that many years with him. 2. While my mom was driving me to work today she randomly drops

The Importance of Pants

2007-04-30T20:35:00.000-07:00

I'm at work today, touring another department of the hospital, when I and everyone else in the therapy room overhears this phone conversation (mainly because the guy was talking super loud...I'm pretty sure he was hard of hearing). "Hi."..."This is your father."..."Someone brought me the wrong pants. I think they are your mother's."...."Well I can't do them up, so they don't stay up. And

So, I'm moving back to Calgary on Friday, likely never to return to "The City of Champions" (???)...a.k.a. Edmonoton/Edmonchuck/Deadmonton, and over the past, well probably 2 weeks have gotten pretty sad about the whole situation. I moved here almost 4 years ago, a scared...well, little girl, and now I am leaving pretty much all grown up. I don't really think I would trade any of my experiences

So, I made my first, of I'm now sure to be many, trips to MAC earlier this week with Andrea. It was a complete success, though an expensive one. The girl that helped us was amazing, full of knowledge and fun ideas. But I would just like to share one of our conversations......."Our grad is actually this weekend.""Oh really, what school do you go to?""The U of A.""You're in university?!?!""Yeah

WHERE DO YOU PUT YOUR PURSE??

2007-02-11T12:53:00.000-07:00

This is something to think about ladies:Have you ever noticed gals who sit their purses on public restroom floors beside the toilet - and then go directly to their dining tables? Happens a lot! It's not always the 'restaurant food' that causes stomach distress. Sometimes "what you don't know 'will' hurt you"!

These boots were made for walking…

2007-02-09T08:36:00.000-07:00

We all remember the trudge to elementary school in the snow in our Sorels (or was it only me?). Dragging our heels all the way across the field felt like it took days. And now we wear shoes all year. Lots of people don’t even own boots, and if they do the boots are “fashionable” (uggs?) not the clodhopper Sorels of the past. Are the kids still trudging to school in their Sorel-like boots? Or is

I was listening to the vinyl cafe yesterday morning, and I really forgot how much I liked it. It really gives you the sense that there are still good people in the world that are caring and compassionate, and don't always think of themselves first.

The Essence Of Tusk

2006-11-26T18:34:00.000-07:00

I'm still finding this whole thing surreal. Even after the funeral, having some closure, part of me is not believing it. I think one of the minsters who spoke really captured what I, and I'm sure most people were feeling. That when we found out, we breathed in death and have been holding our breath ever since. Slowly, we need to start breathing in life again. That is what Connor would have wanted

I just got back from dinner/dessert with some of my really good friends; I would go so far as to say my best friends here in Edmonton. And, as we usually do, we talk a lot about relationships, and frustrations related to lack of them/potential of them etc. Along with this, and the “slap slap” in the comments a few posts back, I realize how lucky I am to have the friends I do, to keep me sane

I don't understand why classes like the one i had this afternoon put me in this "I need to be in a relationship to be happy" kind of mood. It was a class on sexuality and the elderly, and i'm pretty sure the last time i was in this kind of mood b/c of school it was another class on sexuality. I mean, how can i be, i guess jealous, of an elderly person, just beacuse they are in a relationship? it

Funniest, most random thing I have heard in a while was walking to the pool on thursday...these 2 guys are walking out of the gym, and one of them is like "I'm debating on whether or not to shower"... and just for a visual, this guy has about a foot wide ring of sweat around the neck line of his t-shirt. All I can think, is "Do you even need to think that? SERIOUSLY"-----------------------------

Don't you think that by the time you reach university you have had "wash your hands after you use the washroom" drilled into your head more than enough? And that if you are in university you would be smart enough to do this anyway? Apparently not. Someone likely chose not to wash their hands resulting in this.

nunquam desiit victusi've been trying to figure out what this means for probably about a month, and i finally clued into it being latin for: never stop living (at least i think...correct me if i'm wrong)things are so much more powerful in a different language.I wish i could speak some cool language...and my sad attempt at french just isn't doing it for me. My turkish roommate must have a knack

I was thinking this morning (courtesy of a prank phone call on the radio) about football, and desperate housewives…odd combination I know. Let me explain. Why is it that there are sports bars for Monday night football, and watching hockey, football and sports in general for the guys (and girls I suppose) to go, but there are no places where women (I was going to say people, but I think there are

well...i was all ready to come and vent here - and now the anger is gone. sad. oh well....its is quite likely to occur again soon haha. and i just had to throw in a kasota tribute to the left...ah my mcgreggor :) (and just as an aside, right after that photo, he almost dropped me haha!)I really wish i could write meaningful stuff, but instead it just sounds like any other journal.

I'm in the weirdest mood right nowI got back to etown today, and went to get groceries with my mum. Then i just kinda unpacked and listened to my new cds (death cab...plans = new fav). I just kinda felt like i didn't want to be back. I was missing home and my girls there in less then an hour of being back. Not that i don't have good friends here too...its just different when the 2 I live with

2005-11-05T17:44:00.000-07:00

wow! less than a week left of clinical! i can't believe i'm almost done! Although right now i'm really hating the projects...so many papers, and really, i haven't written many papers since high school english, so i'm hoping what i've written is "university acceptable"! eek! and the other problem is one of them doesn't even have a very good guideline of what i'm actually supposed to write...how

I have my placement in Calgary which is really nice, b/c my dad can drive me to work in the morning, and I get to be at home for a while!...I"m in sub acute neuro rehab...so basically working with stroke and MS patients. It is super interesting, and I"ve learned a ton already in just a week! I've mainly just been observing my preceptor (the OT I'm working with), but next week i'm supposed to get

Ok, this is the story of last night…kinda abridged, and stolen from an MSN convo. b/c I am that lazy, and tired (you may get the full story at some point haha)i went out with one of my OT friends (andrea) and her roommate (erin), and we ended up at this bar on campus (the powerplant). so, there ended up being lots of couples, and andrea and erin were getting angry at people pushing them

2005-10-12T21:48:00.000-07:00

I think i have lost my ability to write "narratively" since getting into OT...I've written more papers/formal discussion entries on the internet and stuff in the past month, than in my whole like (k....that is exaggerating a bit!). I don't think i can really write informally anymore. I have to write a reflective journal every week- and it sounds like a freaking paper, not my thoughts (granted we

I'm so...angry with myself. And yet, I have the ability to change it but i'm not. I could call him, i have the number, but its been freaking 3 weeks. if i had done it earlier maybe, but now i think it would just be more awkward, but on the other hand, i'll always regret it if i don't. I need some moral support if i call though. and then there's the whole going out for pizza thing, but i

the following is an excerpt from http://waiterrant.net/ Have a read...it is definitely thought provoking.Bonhoeffer would say when we help each other that is God helping us. The human heart is moved by weakness not by strength. It is our brokenness, not power, that binds us together. Perhaps our weakness will be our salvation. Maybe that is how God “can be with us and help us.”After reading

The chicken is leaning against the headboard smoking a cigarette, with a satisfied smile on its face.The egg, looking a bit pissed off, grabs the sheet, rolls over, and says "Well, I guess we finally answered THAT question!" There is also this version...

Yeah…Well, apparently nothing exciting has happened. I had a good easter, went to sunshine on the Friday…the parking lot was FULL at 920am…crazy! But when we got up the gondola it was basically a white out, which kept the people down and gave us awesome snow! Best skiing all year! Saturday I had my kasota “interview” (->since I already had the job…). It went well obviously, and then the 4 of us
