Night View

This is what I look at now. Very much different from what I used to. Hmmm, I should make a collage of all my favorite views!

Posting Fiend

Look at me! I'm just a posting fiend today (for me). I just have to give a shout out to W and a great big thanks!!!! Pho, very tasty spring rolls, fabulous bubble tea, fancy ice cream from my favorite coffee shop, and super fun-ness after the eating was done. Fabulous post-BDAY night! When was my BDAY? Well ... I'm starting to wonder myself ... I have been legitimately celebrating it since Friday night, and am still going (It's Thursday). And this weekend there is a  Pidglet Day party! And I am incorporating that into my celebration.

What is Pidglet Day you ask? First you must know what a pidglet is. WELL!!! Shhhh that's a secret that only a select few know. And no you can't search to see what it is. Just like the whole "Cactus" secret (or event) is still unknown, even though I was supposed to unveil it a couple summers ago. It got delayed, but it will still happen - cause I am really excited to do it!

I wish I hadn't had to abandon my old blog! It was my first, and I miss it ... yet security measures were needed and stalkers had to be banished! There were a lot of good memories there. I was thinking of saving them ... but sometimes it's good to close the book on a chapter and not look back - good or bad. My posts just have not been as epic on this blog ... well my adventures have not been epic lately ... but they will pick up again once the serious "responsibility" ends - oh how I miss the crazy!

I Love Myself Today!

So last night, I lifted weights with the guys. Tonight, I did a 10-storey climb-twice. So, 20 flights total. Why? Because I love myself today. Enough is enough! I am getting back into ... well everything. Tomorrow I may swim some laps (depends who is in the pool). If not swimming, I'll climb another 20 flights.

Tonight, I'm going to do a little studying, have a nice hot shower, and then as a reward write a little (had an awesome new idea on the train today), and then watch a show or documentary.

I WAS FORGOTTEN! ... but not really!

Was supposed to get a ride this morning. Thought A2 forgot me, but she thought class was 1 hour later and was in the shower. Took the bus. Was only 25 minutes late. Got a free muffin AND a free coffee!!! LOVELY!!!! The weather has been nice. The snow has almost all melted. I've been feeling creative and started planning movies and filming. WOO! Excited!

Mah Birthday Weekend

It was a great weekend. Friday started with a party and it continued until Sunday night for supper. Now full of yummy goodness and bed!

Summer In my Thoughts

Summer is in my thoughts! While the extreme cold, or this ice isolation never lets me forget that I am in a frozen tundra, I am trying to focus my mind on happier things. I have been doing a little bit of writing and I am just starting to plan summer shooting and filming. I'm a little excited. There have been some really cool movie ideas run by me so far. I have also gotten too many requests to ignore a sequel to my first horror movie. So, I think I will have to give in, but only if my supporting actress will come back to star in it with me!!

I think I may also be doing a music video as well. There was talk of me doing a music video with this lovely little story, me playing the violin, but I'm not quite finished  composing that piece yet - maybe that will be a project for in between projects this summer. D has been very much insisting that I finish the song and film the video ... so I'll probably end up doing it, since I know he won't stop asking. Well I'm off for a Wednesday Night sessions. Cheers!

SNOW!

So it's snowing. Ugh! And very messy. Bus was literally sliding sideways. And tomorrow we are supposed to get 15 ml of freezing rain. woo...

Deletion

So, lately I have been on this deletion  kick. Not sure where it came from, but it's going strong. I have spent HOURS deleting almost all my FB posts (since the fall of 2006). I think I'm just tired. This staying in one place is killing me! I miss filming. I miss writing. I miss dancing. I really miss performing. I miss travelling without a plan. This city is also very lonely.

I'm going to make time! This winter I'm starting to prepare to be ready to film come spring!! I'm also going to start singing again. Not anywhere in specific; just alone at home. My range has seriously suffered from the last couple years of silence.

Another issue ... my weight. After my accident and surgery and the no walking crap for a few years, it just exploded on me. Going to start working out. I'm not even going to go "lose weight" crazy. Just need to be fit again.

At the moment (although I really should be going to bed) I'm going to do some writing! Already have my tea beside me.

I Think I Hate Dental Hygiene!

This whole endeavour is becoming very cumbersome! I'm am so more than ready to just go back to The Maritimes. I should have just done what I was first thinking of instead of coming back to school. I was worried about the effort and hard work it would take to get back to a level of violin that I would feel right about teaching students. But the amount of work would have been trivial compared to this! 

I think I need to do some real deep soul searching this spring. I just want to teach music and write. Not be humiliated in class. Getting very tired of all the shit. Seriously!
