Sickness Sucks

So I haven't posted in a while cause I've been extremely sick. I went to work on saturday night, then went to a friends house to hang out, feeling fine! Then I woke up sunday morning with a high fever, headache, stuffy nose, etc. Everything in my body aches. It even hurts to cough. I'm feeling a lot better today though and can finally move around the house, and leave to get things I need. I still haven't really eaten though, it's been 4 days. Today I'm going to treat myself to my favorite veggie pate sandwich from the cafe around the corner! It's a good thing I'm getting better cause I'm going to Buffalo in a few days to see Tyson! It's only for one day, but at least it's something! Then I have 10 days to get ready to fly to LA for 10 days on tour. So as of now, things are pretty uneventful since I spend all my time sleeping. I hope to be completely better by friday when I leave for Toronto. I'm off to take a nap. I'll update again when something exciting happens.

Neverending Errands

I'm warning you now that this will most likely be a boring post. I have so much to do and so little time. I have a HUGE shopping list of things I need (not want, NEED), and not a lot of money to get it at the moment. I also have a lot of trip planning and schedule sorting and getting ready for tour and such. There is also still the task of finding the perfect job here in montreal. One where I don't need to know how to speak french. In other words, mission impossible! haha! Now, don't get me wrong, I'm not really complaining. It's nice to have a lot of stuff to do since I've been just sitting around my apartment like a lazy slob since I got home from Arizona. I'm really excited for tour in Feb! I miss Tyson so much it's ridiculous, so I'm looking forward to 10 whole days with him. I need to call his mom today to get the recipe for his favorite snack, so I can make some and bring them to him in Buffalo. I'm finally not sick anymore and it's been fantastic weather outside! It's been warmish and sunny! A lot of the snow has melted and dried up, so I don't have to worry about my feet getting soaked when I go outside. Today I'm up bright and early so I can get stuff done. I have to go pick up some t-shirts, socks and other essentials for tour. I need a calendar so I can stay organized, and I'm going into American Apparel later to see about getting a job at the warehouse! Other than all the errands I have to run, I'm excited that a couple friends are coming into town soon. Alaina is a good friend from California and she's coming into town for the day on thursday, and my friend Jesica from Warped Tour is coming into town on the 22nd with a band she's tour managing. I haven't seen either of them for a long time, so I look forward to catching up. I'm back on track with getting healthy. For a while there I got lazy and started eating a lot of fast food and not only did it show, but I felt like shit. Who knew fast food could make you so tired and lazy!? These days it's more cooking with fresh veggies and stuff, and tofu in EVERYTHING! Yum! So, I guess there really isn't much more to say. Just trying to stay busy and make sure I get everything done on time. I'm looking into getting another polaroid camera since mine got stolen, so soon enough I'll start posting pics with my blogs. Later folks.

New Year

So I figured with the new year I'd start a new blog. I'm starting this for me more than anything else cause for some reason, it helps to have a place to vent and write down my thoughts and feelings. It lets me collect my thoughts. If for some reason you find all this interesting to read, then that's great too. So far 2008 has been amazing! It started for me in Scottsdale Arizona with the best boyfriend I could ever ask for. He's by far the best thing about 2007, and has continued to be in 08. Since returning to montreal I've come across some problems with finding work and it's really stressing me out, but I'm trying to be more positive these days. In all honesty, I don't have a lot to complain about. I live in a beautiful city, in a great apartment, with amazing friends and good health. That's all I really need right? I've been shedding the need and want for extras these days. It's all about the basics. I've become a lot more laid back in recent months, so far this is a good change. I've also started reconnecting with a lot of people who I've snubbed over the last year. I admit I turned into a bit of a snob. I looked down on others for everyday mistakes and hear-say gossip. I should have known better, especially as someone who's done and been a part of both of those things herself. Some people actually did royally screw up, but this is the year of second chances. Everyone is getting a second chance with me, and I can only hope that I receive the same in return. No one is perfect. I feel like I'm seeing the world a lot more clearly. I have been breaking away from my habit over over-analyzing and obsessing on things I don't understand and learning to let go. I guess this is all a part of growing up. I've just turned 25. A quarter century! So far so good and I'm finally starting to feel like a grown up. I guess my main goal for 2008 is not to waste any time. No more waiting for things to come my way. No more missing out on time spent with friends cause I'm too lazy. I will cherish every moment with loved ones. I will seek out and grasp every opportunity. This will be a great year :)
