title: trust
I realized last night while I was driving that I don't trust my own decisions. I think this is maybe why I don't do real well on tests, I know the information but I can't trust my gut instinct. Plus I can't seem to be able to stop chewing on my lips... It sucks hard core. But I digress, I can trust other people, but not myself which is a weird thought. And I always seem second guess myself. What can I do to make this better...
Now that you sat through that, here is a little present: http://vimeo.com/773692 Just check it out and you can tell me later how awesome that was and how happy you are that I shared that with you. While you are there you should watch the other videos in the side table off to the right, you will most definitely enjoy =) Labels: crapneto, Robjn Taylor, trust

title: Another random list!
!. I really enjoy having to dance with you, although your kinda scared me at first, you hold my hand like your not afriad of me and it makes me feel good like holding hands should. You stand up for me when he yells at me and also help me get into the right line. Even though its not even for the full 4 mins, it really helps. @. Robjn Taylor is HILARIOUS, go check out his youtube videos, SICK! #. Shaun White snowboarding just came out and I'm going to rent it this weekend!! $. I actually danced in buko at dance! Thanks P! I think I am getting the hang of this, just maybe. %. Byran Adams - Here I Am = Amazing song ^. I love being spontaneous, even though it cost a pretty penny. The hockey game was awesome and riding the LRT the whole day kinda made my day =D I had forgotten what good frends we used to be, if only whats her face hadn't ruined that. Gettin comfy with the comforter! We really need to hang out more often. &. My dad is in Ottawa for a conference, hopefully he brings me back some soap or something, you can really never have too much soap. *. I watched parts of Band of Brothers on sunday and reccomend that everyone watch it.
William Shakespeare's "Henry V": "This story[of the battle] shall the good man teach his son, And Crispin Crispian shall ne'er go by From this day to the ending of the world But we in it shall be remembered We few, we happy few, we band of brothers. For he today that sheds his blood with me Shall be my brother; be he ne'er so vile, This day shall gentle his condition."

title: Sagittarius
Given freedom, they are warm, affectionate, funny,and interesting companions. The adaptability of Sagittarius gives ambidexterity to its subject and enables them to tackle more than one thing at a time. Concentration is not their strong point, however, and they often become unstuck when talking on too much.Their love of change and variety makes them fascinating but unreliable. Projects are started but not finished, appointments and promises are made but not kept, and words are spoken which mean nothing a few days later. Sagittarians listen earnestly to advice but rarely follow it. They are easily able to forgive and forget. Regarded as the luckiest sign of the zodiac, Sagittarius always appear to land on their feet. They can be reckless and foolhardy, and children of this sign are often prone to accidents. Sagittarius are known for their bluntness and what they perceive is plain honesty. Diplomacy is an alien word to them. They are great storytellers.
So I'm pretty sure this is scarily accurate!!

title: Halo
Just below the Midstation on Sunday afternoon, there was a double rainbow caused by the low sun and the ice crystals in the air. If we'd had a wide angle lens with us instead if a point-and-shoot we could have captured the double halo plus extra arcs going in the opposite direction like the one at the top of this shot. The ice crystals were floating past like gold dust. I felt like I was in a special effect in a movie. Through polarised goggles, the colours were much more intense, too.

I realized just now that I don't really like cake, or maybe it was the icing that ruined it. Anyways there was something about that plain white cake with icing on it that I didn't enjoy. I also dislike monkeys, they are just plain creepy. Don't ask why cause I can't pin point exactly what about them bugs me, I can't even walk throught the monkey section at the zoo...Labels: cake, monkeys, random, zoo

title: Crazy, I know
1. Even though I got my license like 3 weeks ago, I haven't driven any where. Not to work, or IGA, or Shauna's, or bowling, or shopping, and I don't understand why. 2. This morning frodo (my dog) wouldn't eat breakfast, and normally he is all over dad if he forgets to put out his food. Frodo would go look at his dish and then at dad and then lick the floor and then sniff his food and then put his head in dads lap and then he looked at me with this worried look in his eyes like the world is ending and then he sniffed the floor and then looked around and this went on for a good 5 minutes. I kinda felt bad for him, but he finally managed to eat so all was good. 3. I just found this sweet song: Royksopp - So Easy Go listen right now, and try not to picture snowboarding. Is it wierd that I see snowboarding when I listen to this song... probably not. 4. I did 296 stairs today at lunch, and according to this calorie counter thingy-ma-bob, I lost 100 calories. Wicked! Then after I went and ate a bowl full of cream of broccoli soup. Delicious, but not so wicked... 5. It almost snowed the other day. Those poor clouds were trying soooo hard to produce the stuff that it just turned into rain =( 6. My brother is being stupid. 7. I got a sweet new Nalgene bottle the other day. Its lime green and is BPA free!!! Awesome, no more toxins sitting in my water, and I have a new place to put all of my stickers =D Plus its HUGE! 32 ounces of huge (but I don't know what that would be in metric units... maybe 1000 ml?)
Anyways, those are the random thoughts of the day! CheersLabels: broha, Frodo, list, random, Royksopp
