Speaking of getting people things, I should get started on Christmas shopping, right? Hm.

Went to the craft sale at Thom yesterday. It was really boring, but there were a few good stands. The person who makes bead spiders? Awesome. Should have bought one from her instead of the more expensive ones they had at the Market Fair at school last week. The "knight in shining armour" one looked so cool. And now I can say I've been to the condom school. (Explanation: their sports teams are called the Trojans, so we, and probably other schools in the area, always called them the condom school. Immature, yes. I apologize, even though I don't think anyone on my flist went to Thom. Did you?)

Hnnnngh, what should I write for my Creative Writing sample? Someone give me an idea.

Canada Day is next week! Furthermore, I have it off, and will be lording this fact over all of you who do not. Actually, I'm more likely to just waste a bunch of time in the park playing with inflatable swords, but hey. (Speaking of which, I think I want a flag. Full-sized, too. However, I am not quite sure what I would do with one, so I have held off on this matter.)

Why has the Carlton Cards in the mall been playing nothing but Hilary Duff for a week? I know stores do that with current music, but come on, her? I don't get it. Maybe the manager just trudged through My Immortal.

Former place of employment mentioned in previous entry was on the front page of the paper today. Joy. I haven't gotten around to reading it. Guess they finally caved to the outsourcing requests. I know tons of people will be mad. e-e; Speaking of work, there's nothing really bad going on at new!work, but it is freezing cold. They overuse the AC. Think they'll turn it off if we ask?

Must ship box. Box has been in my room for a month and a half. Please help prevent my further laziness.

I live on the edge of town. Well, not so much literally anymore since the development, but it's just a few streets. I can still see outside the city limits. So why can I never see any fireworks from my window? Lazy neighbours.

Happy New Year, everyone!

Canada Day is pretty fun so far, even though it's just me and my family. Went down to Wascana Park to see everything that was going on and sob I left my purse in the car whyyyy I wanted mini-donuts. :((( However, I found another way to get dessert, for now I am the proud owner of...

A SNOW CONE MAKER

Even though my parents said it was a dumb idea. o/;; I like it and I will use it often. The store ran out of the cute little pink one, but I got another one and it works fine. It doesn't take much ice, actually o.o; Also got some nice syrup, the kind they put in Italian soda, instead of the kind that you can buy with the maker. Natural is healthy. Of course, though my vanilla snow cones taste great, it's hard to tell which part is covered when the syrup is clear. Knew I should have gotten strawberry.

Also, thumbs really needs to stop randomly disappearing after saying one or two things in AIM. Then maybe I would not think "PERFECT OPPORTUNITY FOR CHAT *A*" and then have awkward silence when she doesn't show up and it's just me and one other person. u-ub Speaking of which, apparently my old AIM works again? \(O_o)/
