Crazy Busy!!!

The past week/2 weeks has been insanely busy for me!!! First off I had to finish packing to move and also pack to go camping/white water rafting. It was honestly one of the best times I've ever had and I plan to go back and learn how to Kayak! Here's a picture of me on the raft... see if you can spot me ;)


Our guide Shawn/Sean (however you spell it) was awesome! He was a lot of fun and a really nice guy. We ended up partying with all of the guides that evening at their bonfire. Oh, forgot to mention the rafting was at RiverRun Ottawa. All the guys are awesome and really great people with a love and passion for rafting/kayaking/the river in general.

I also had a midterm in my summer class that I'm taking FML! It was a lot harder than I expected it to be! Apparently not many people did very well but we shall see when I get the results on Monday!

Another crazy thing is still going on/happening soon. I get the keys to my apartment on Sunday at 2:00pm! Am I ever nervous to leave my parents house and live on my own BUT I'm excited all the same! My parents will be empty nesters which honestly makes me a little bit nervous for them. Then again they could stand each other before my brother and I were around so they should be able to do it again.

My pet peeve lately has been 2/2:

  • People that are overly loud on the bus and yell over each other louder, LOUder, and LOUDER. If you all took turns speaking you would not have to yell over each other. 
  • When people read their slides during a presentation and you feel like a 4 year old being read a bedtime story. When they are then asked questions and have no idea what to respond with since they just copied and pasted to their slides without analyzing the information. 
So this Sunday KEYS! We shall see how everything else ends up going! I will try to keep you guys posted but probably won't be writing again until things calm down a lot more. Wish me luck with moving and hopefully I don't lose anything... even though I think I already have lost a huge amount of things *sigh*. 

See you all on the flip slide!

knows it's been forever!

Life has been crazy at the moment! Lots of different stuff happening i.e. busy at work, moving soon(ish), and taking a night course in school. It's not THAT much stuff but it's a lot for me to handle at the moment... since it is supposed to be summer and all. ANYWAYS... What else was been going on upstairs.

Saw the Avengers last week...


I'm not sure how I feel about it. It was very well done and had a lot of action and even some romance (and what not). Since I've been hearing about this movie since the first Iron Man came out I was expecting LEGENDARY!!! Well I thought it was good but doesn't really deserve the status of legendary. I loved all of the actors and the story line stayed fairly true to the comics but I just expected more. People have already called me crazy but it's okay. 

Next on the list I saw The Raven the other night...


It was really well done! If you're familiar with any of Poe's work you might find it a little hard to follow at some points but they kept it overall pretty simple. It was gory, which was nice, and also has that mysterious edge. I didn't think it was going to end the way it did (before the park bench). Just saying I was a little surprised but most people should know about the park bench in Baltimore. Anyways I suggest people go out and see it if you like history based movies with gore. 

The next movie I am SO looking forward to seeing is DARK SHADOWS!!!



Will try to keep this bad boy updated and will let all my readers know when I see this!
