Blowfish

Woke up by my alarm this morning at 9:15am.  I was tired but forced myself to wake up anyways and decided to get some studying done before mom wakes up.  Mom kept sleeping while I got up, took a shower and started studying.  It wasn't until almost 1pm did she finally woke up.  We headed downtown soon after.

It was a bright sunny day. We had a late lunch at Cafe Crepe and parted ways. I stayed at Blenz to study and she went shopping.  I studied only a few interruptions of updates from my friends on the phone but that was it. It was quite productive as far as studying goes. I'm growing tired of studying and cant believe i still have so long before my exam.  I know there is still a lot of material i have to cover and study. But i've never been very good at studying on my own.  -- i miss my study groups and late-nights with my friends at the university library.  I can always count on them to keep me focused or distracted (depending on the day) :p   but at least i had company and i was entertained.  It wasn't just the library where we made our mark.  the rez. common rooms and study halls. heck, even the lobby was a place for us to study!

My mom came back about 3 hours later with bags of goodies from Roots, Danier, American Eagle...  I asked her if she had fun, she nodded and smiled. I laughed at her. -- but now we know where i got my shopping tendencies from :p   like mother like daughter. :p -- Shopaholics.

Found out about a horrible news today... all I can say is that I am glad I am not there anymore. If I was, I would feel so shitty.  People were right... it was a blessing in disguise.  I would have hated doing what I would have to do if I was still there.

Hmmm... Haven't been feeling very well all day today.  My eyes are tired and i feel bloated and on edge. (like an angry blowfish,  with spikes and all!) -- Time for Bubbles to go to bed. -- soon. :p

Decorated Fridge

- Decorated my Fridge - 

A reminder of who and what's important to me. As I take more photos and have them developed I will have a lot more to add to this fridge. -- the surface that was once blank and boring.  

It's a reminder of what i'm made of. The people in my life who shape who I was and who I've become. It's in what they do, what they say and how they make me feel. 

My parents:  They will always be proud of me.  Though they don't often voice this, I can see in these pictures, such as graduation day, that June 2nd, 2010 was not just my special day, it was theirs too.  

My friends: who's always available to listen and support with open hearts and open mind (mostly anyway).  They keep me grounded, feeling secure and brave.  They are my safety net.  -- the only reason how the dependent me dare make the brave decision to live in a city on my own.

My family: the people who watched me grow up. Though, due to distance, they cant always be around me, but they will always be apart of who I am and who I have become. My cousins who would never treat me like a stranger just because it has been years since we last met. My aunts and uncles who still never fails grasp every opportunity to poke fun and bug the hell out of me. 

Last but not least: My Boyfriend:  Who always tries his best to give me what I want. To make me happy he would do almost anything. Who loves me and listens to all my rambling. 

-- At the end of the day: Love is all that matters. And I can proudly say, I'm not short on that. --

-- Bottom Line: I wouldn't trade any one for any thing! -- 

The Hoodie

The summer is almost over and the days are getting chillier. I looked around the room yet again for that hoodie I always like to cuddle up with. I let out a long disappointed sigh as I sat back on my bed, remembering that you took it with you this time.  I pouted to myself "that was my favorite!"

Some nights, when the day's been lonely and the night is too quiet, and when i have trouble settling down, I turn on the radio and put on that hoodie.  It always make me feel better and puts me to sleep.

I reached over to my closet and grabbed the first sweater I laid my hands on. The sweater kept me warm but it just isn't the same.

I told you that it was ok for you to take it, but now i just feel like I have nothing to remember you by.

But it's fair, I suppose, the hoodie is yours after all.
