I should probably let you know that I've pretty much stopped updating this journal. Instead, my journal can be found on my website (journal.brennanbones.com), though a username/password is needed to access the journal (so that my family doesn't find it). The username and password below are the ones to use. (family doesn't know of this journal, so I shouldn't have trouble posting this here. hehe)

At this point, you're going to find me crazy, but I'd like your opinion. Below is 3 different Christmas (yes, Christmas) tree animation. One that I found on the internet, and 2 that are part of an episode of Bones. I'd like to know which one you guys prefer.

You see, for Christmas, dad's bringing us all to Mexico. I plan on putting one of these animations on my ipod, and put it on the tv over there on Christmas (with Christmas music of course), but I'm not sure which one to take. This is where you guys come in. Which one do you prefer? (or do you know of another one that you prefer?)

A day so soo boring... (Dec 1)

I started out by sleeping till about 12h30. I got ready, and left the house at 1h40... just for it to take me 20 minutes scrapping the car (since it was raining, and not going anywhere, I advanced the car in the garage to scrape the ice off, but advancing the car was a problem of it's own; I coudn't see where I was going! hehe. Anyways, got to work at 2h10. From then till about 3h30-4h00, I printed certificates, and I started to cut them. At 3h30-4h00, we were all in the office; Guy and Denis talking, me cutting... but then the power went out. Came back one for 2 seconds, then out again. Guy said it should come back on soon, since it did come back on for 2 seconds... but... it didn't. lol. At 5h, Denis said I could leave; no point for me to stay there since I need the computer, or lights, to do my job... besides, my lunch for that day? Was a frozen dinner! I needed electricity for that! lol. So I went to my sisters instead; no power there either (since it's in the same town) but at least I was with family :P. My mom was going to go home, and check the roads, and it the roads were okay, bring back food, because the last they'd heard, Embrun still had electricity... but when mom got there, there was none. (and mom didn't have a key... so she couldn't get into OUR house! (made me laugh)). Anyhow, basic is, Jean went to Casselman, then two stores in Orleans before finding a small generator. (they'd bought a whole pig, and something like 5 chickens a couple of days earlier; both freezers were full; it was not time to have them stop running). Mom went to Casselman to get Kentucky; for some reason, they still had power *stares*. We ate at Nat's. Didn't do much else. Except that my left arm was dead :P. Soon after I got there, I heard Jessica... went to see, she was no longer on the padding thingy on the floor, but on the wood... so, of course, she felt uncomfortable... and we're talking of a 4 1/2 month old... So I took her, and went back in the kitchen with her. And from then (about 5h10) to about 7h30, I had her in my arms.. hehe. Such a cutie :P. But kills the arm. lol.

Anyways, Jean came back with the generator, and started it... and we left! lol. Mom was tired, and I had the key... hehe. We got home, put on some candles, and I read a bit, and then bed... and at about 11h30 the power came back on! ...

Jean said that when he passed on St-Albert street, coming back from work, there was a power line low enough... that a school bus got stuck underneath when it passed...

Anyhow, going to get ready for work now... better not happen again!

Articles below... when they talk of Embrun, or Township of Russell, it's where I live.

Storm Causes Major Power Outages
Cindy Clyne and Jason McIntyre
Friday, December 1, 2006

Nearly 45,000 Hydro One customers have their lights off following Friday's nasty weather.

Spokesperson Enza Cansella says there is serious damage in Winchester, Vankleek Hill, Perth, and Prescott. Outages have also been reported in Embrun, Limoges, Greely, Manotick, Osgoode.

Rain, freezing rain and ice pellets have downed lines and trees between the province's southwest and eastern corners.

Meanwhile, there is a state of emergency in the Township of Russell, about 45 minutes east of Ottawa. Nearly 20 hydro poles have been knocked down, and that's caused a number of road blocks.

At last check, 13,500 people were without power in the community.

Hydro One crews are working to restore power. However, customers may be in the dark for the overnight hours, and could be without electricity until Sunday in some cases.

Emergency Issued for Russell
Jason McIntyre
Saturday, December 2, 2006

The Township of Russell is under a state of emergency.

Mayor Ken Hill, sworn in three days earlier that scheduled, made the declaration Friday night after nearly 20 downed hydro poles blocked several roads and left over 13 000 residents in the dark.

Emergency Measures Information Officer Sebastien Goyer says Hydro One is clearing the way for traffic, and power, to resume. He says a major electricity line feeding the village of Embrun has been knocked out, and there is no timetable for the re-connection.

Goyer says that no one has died because of the poor weather.

Saint Thomas Aquinas High School, at 1195 South Russell Road, is open as a shelter for anyone needing additional help.

[mood| happy]
[music| The fan besides me and the little cricket that won't stop]

Bon, cet entré sera en français, pour la simple raison que l'université recommence bientôt, et ça fait longtemps que j'ai écrit en français; je doit m'y habituer. (If you can't understand french and would like to read the entry, just tell me, I'll translate it).

3h05pm: Je suis présentement au travail, et ce jusqu'à 8h00. Je suis en train d'écrire ce message sur mon ordinateur portatif, et je vais le mettre sur livejournal une fois que je serai chez moi. La journée a été calme. En tout cas, pour moi. J'ai passé la journée à écrire des notes pour mes cours d'unitversité de l'an passé, dans mon programme 'OneNote'. De cette manière, je pourrai écrire un mot clé, et le programme me trouvera toutes les places ou le mot a été mentionné. Je l'ai fait pour mon cours de microéconomie, macroéconomie, mon cours d'administration que j'avais en hivers, et je suis maintenant à mon cours d'administration que j'avais en automne. Il me reste 5 parties, du chapitre 18, et chapitre 19. Ensuite, j'aurai fini! :). Bien sûr, je veux commencer à lire mes livres pour la prochaine session (qui commence le 7 sept), puisque j'ai un cours de comptabilité. Je m'étais dit que je devais finir d'écrire les notes pour Micro, Macro, ADM et ADM avant de commencer à lire mes livres. Je peux dire, que c'était bien motivant. hehe. Je veux lire mon livre de comptabilité! lol. En tout cas, en revenant au fait que je suis au travail. J'était en bas (l'office est en haut), regardant dehors. Lorsque je me suis retourné, j'ai vue que Denis (patron, propriétaire) me regardait avec un sourire. Il m'a demandé si je le cherchais (c'est ce qu'il pensait). Je lui ai répondu que non... Il a fini par dire qu'il est 3h00. J'ai juste répondu avec un "Uh huh." C'est là qu'il a réalisé qu'il m'avait demandé quelques semaines passés de rentrer aujourd'hui jusqu'à 8h00. *rolls eyes* (okay, comment dire *rolls eyes* en français? hehe.) Donc je suis ici jusqu'à 8h00. Bien sûr, mon ordinateur portatif me tient compagnie. Même si je ne peux pas aller sur l'Internet. Je peux prendre mon temps de travail pour écrire les notes d'ADM. J'ai aussi plusieurs (environ 460 fanfics de Bones sur mon ordinateur, que j'ai pris de fanfiction.net ... et ce, tous complet. Je ne pensais pas que j'en avais tant, avant que je regarge le montant total. (que j'ai oublié :P)) Tu vois, je regardes sur fanfiction.net s'il y a des nouvelles histoires complètes de Bones quelques fois par jour lorsque je suis chez moi. Lorsqu'il y en a, je les mets dans 'OneNote', écrivant le titre, le nom d'utilisateur de l'auteur, et bien sûr l'histoire. De cette manière, je n'ai pas besoin d'être sur l'Internet pour pouvoir les lire. Ce sera très utiles lorsque je suis en classe à l'université, dans les classes qu'il n'y a pas d'Internet. Bien sûr, je vais -essayer- d'écouter. hehe. Mais les chances sont que je vais me retrouver à faire autre chose. Quoi mieux que de lire des histoires de Bones?

4h30pm: Je commence à avoir faim. Je vais attendre à 5h00 pour manger, par contre. Autrement, je vais avoir encore faim plus tard, pendant le travail, et je n'aurai rien à manger! Je viens de recevoir un courriel du 'Buffy store' et du 'Angel store' disant que si j'achète quelque chose entre le 24 et 28 août, j'aurai 10% de rabais. Je crois que je vais regarder si il y a quelque chose que je veux :P. Possiblement le calendrier 2007 de Buffy. Possiblement une nouvelle bague 'Claddagh' puisque la mienne est craqué à l'arrière, mais peut-être que non... elle est correcte quand même. Je veux encore le 'Buffy Scythe' et le 'Buffy Vampyr Book', mais ils sont 299.96$ et 129.95$ (et puis, le scythe, je ne sais même pas si il pourrait venir ici... avec les douanes et tout ça...) Et je crois que ma mère caporterait si j'achèterais le scythe ou le vampyr book. Peut-être quelques comics d'Angel. ... Oh my god. En regardant à travers la marchandise, j'ai vue quelque chose... 'Spike Prop Replica Puppet'. J'avais déjà vu Angel (puisqu'il vient de 'Smile Time') mais Spike? Il n'est pas encore sorti, mais quand même... Uh oh. Regarder à travers la marchandise sur le Buffy/Angel store m'a donné l'envie de regarder la marchandise sur Ebay... Bien sûr, je ne devrais pas rien acheter du tout... puisque lundi je m'en vais magasiner, et je vais dépenser... Mais me connaissant, je vais peut-être finir par dépenser en ligne, et en magasin. heh.

5h10: Bon, apparamment (sp?) regarder à travers des pages et des pages de marchandises sur le Buffy/Angel store et sur Ebay prend du temps.... mais maintenant, je peux aller souper! hehe. (FOOD!)

5h25: Ummm. Ça c'était bon. hehe. J'ai mangé un Lean Cuisine Boeuf Terryaki. Je mange souvent ça au travail, mais c'est toujours bon. Et puis, ça ne prend pas de temps à faire le matin. Seulement le sortir du congélateur, et une fois arriver ici, le mettre dans le congélateur. Ensuite, le sortir, le mettre dans le micro-onde, le faire cuire pour 5 minutes. Et voila! Prêt à manger.

Je ne sais plus quoi dire, donc je crois que je vais arrêter ici. Au moins, pour maintenant. De retour à mes notes d'administration.

Oh oui, Mari. Mon ordinateur du travail n'a pas fait capoute. Du moins, pas complètement. Il ne voulait juste pas me laisser rentrer sur le profil; au lieu, il en créait un nouveau. Le profil était corrompu. Donc on a dû transferer tous les fichier dans un nouveau profil, et voila. Ça fonctionne.

6h22: Okay. Chapitre 18 et chapitre 19 étaient deux chapitre que nous avions pas vu en classe, à cause du manque de temps. J'ai quand même fait chapitre 18, mais arrivé à chapitre 19, j'ai remarqué qu'il était 40 pages, et donc, j'ai décidé de ne pas faire les notes pour ce chapitre. Donc j'ai fini! Whoohoo! hehe. Il me reste encore 1h20 de travail. Ou bien, je devrais dire, au travail. Car je n'ai pas de travail à faire... ce qui était la même histoire toute la semaine... Mais maintenant que j'ai fini mes notes, que vais-je faire? Lire des histoires de Bones? Aller encore sur Ebay? humm.

9h42: Je suis revenu du travail à 8h45. Il y avait des clients dans le magasin jusqu'à 8h20, donc je suis partie à 8h30. J'ai décidé que je n'achèterai pas rien sur Buffy ou Angel store, mais possiblement sur caffepress.com Mais je ne suis pas certaine encore...

En tout cas, je vais m'en aller. Je suis en train de parler avec des gens sur msn, et donc c'est bizarre d'écrire ici en français, et sur msn en anglais.

In December, my dad got in a accident of some kind... they (dad and his girlfriend) at a friend's house... then they all went for a ride in a snow thingy. (no clue what it was exactl). Their friends was on one, dad and his girlfriend on the other... at one point, the turned. Their friends being in front of them, saw someone else arriving, and were able to turn out of their way in time... dad wasn't. They hit... Dad had problems with his knee; needed to be operated. Well, Thursday, he was... and his car was stolen at the hotel. It's the second time, in two years! ,.. Last year, he went on a trip; left car at airport. When they came back, car had been stolen. And both stolen cars, I think, were an 'Escalade'. (I know that the last one was, anyhow).

Anyways, on other news... Dad put his house for sale. I knew it would happen someday; he spends most of his time at the cottage anyways. Well, he said he got an offer on it. ... Then he told me that he bought a condo in Ottawa. I asked him what the difference was (selling a house since he's always at the cottage, but then buying a condo). He said that this way, if he's in town, he won't have to go back to the cottage... they can spend a night at the condo... again, I didn't see the difference. Then he added, no need to cut grass and stuff like that... he's on the 14th story... hehe. It's on York street... had no clue where it was. Then he asked me if I knew where Dalhousie was, and I said of course; it's near the University! hehe. So next year, if I ever know he's in town, while I'm waiting at Uni, I could go see him. hehe.

... I kept checking for the ECO homework 2's note... Today, it was on. I read, and went 'What?'. ... I thought I didn't do well... I got 90.5% on it. How is that even possible? heh. *shrugs* I'm happy. hehe
... and I found out, there's no way that I'll have the admission boursary next year; we had to have 8.5 to keep it... and there's no way that I could even get it. (I'd need about 11 on 10 in every class this semester, and that's obviously not possible...) Oh well, no money for me. (dad gives me half on my boursaries...)

On other news, I want to go to DisneyWorld >.< ... Yesterday, Steph talked about Chris and his fiancee (they live in England) coming to the States in September, since they were going to DisneyWorld... and now I want to go! Not necessarily at the same time as they are going, but just for fun... I want to go... why does it cost so much? heh. *wonders if I could save enough of my summer job to go* hehe. I'd love to go during Winter vacation. hehe. ... although, I wouldn't want to go alone.. hehe.

*doesn't have anything else to say... I think*
*goes away*

I haven't posted in a while... I know. I never know what to write. :P. I'm currenlty watching Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. Watching, might be over stating it though. While I was surfing the net and stuff, I needed something in the background; a sound of some kind. So I put HP1. I glance at it from time to time, but I'd have to say that I'm listening to HP1, and not watching.

Thursday, I had a Philosophy mid-term exam. Since I drive to University with my best-friend (split gas and parking... yay! hehe), even if I don't have classes, I have to bring her... Although our Philosophy exam was at 4h, she also had a Witchcraft mid-term at 10h, so we arrived at University at about 9h30. Since I had until 4h to wait before the mid-term, I studied for Philosophy. When, at 10h35, my best-friend came back, I was surprised... the exam time was an hour and twenty minutes, and here she was, exam having started only 35 minutes earlier, and she was finished. Not only that, the exam was at the other end of the campus, so she finished maybe 10 minutes earlier than that? I didn't expect that from University exams. heh. Anyhow, we both continued to study for the Philo exam. I was stressed; I understood the exercices, but I couldn't grasp the concepts. I told Sylika that it would be fun if the exam was at least 50% exercices (the teacher had said that there would be 4 questions with sub-questions (a, b, c,...), and exercices). So I studied for about 6 hours, trying to grasp the notions, which didn't work at all. Exam arriving, I thought 'too bad. I don't feel like studying anymore. I'll get what all get.' Then, the exam started. The sheets were passed. The exam? Consisted of 4 questions. We had to choose 3. One was about a notion, the other 3 were exercices. Which ones do you think I picked? hehe. So I did the exam, and 30 minutes later, Sylika and I were both out of the exam. We were given 80 minutes, but we only took 30. (can't wait to see how I did though...). Then I just though, 'I spent 6 hours today, trying to grasp the notions, and all that for nothing! I could have studied for my Economy exam. I could have read. I could have done anything but study for something that I didn't even remember a minute after!'. Oh well. Since the exam was finished, Sylika and I both went home. But that wasn't the end. Since I had an Economy (microeconomy) exam the next day, more studying was done, at the same time as I watched Survivor, The Apprentice, and Without a Trace. Then sleep... yay!

Friday: I had an administration class at 8h30, but I decided to skip it. Had I gone, I would have had to get up at 6ham, and then leave at 7h, to be there in time. Without going, I slept until 7h, and studied a bit more for my Economy mid-term. Since I knew it was 50 multiple choices, I did the multiple choices we had in our book. At the beginning of the semester, the teacher also said that he had posted the mid-terms from the previous years, so I did the 2004 mid-term, and then the 2003. Then I left, at around 10h, since I had a administration DGD (discussion group), which I cannot miss... and I handed in a case, that we always have to hand in on the DGD (every Friday). The DGD was from 11h30 to 12h30, being shortened by 20 minutes, the teacher knowing that some of us had an exam right after (and so, making sure we'd get there in time...). So I went to the class, and waited to be able to get in. Once in, exam were distributed. I read the first question, and the only thing I though was 'I should have checked the right answers >.<'. You see, the mid-term was the exact same as the 2004 midterm, except that there was 5 questions that were taken out this time. And when I did the 2004 mid-term, I had checked my answers, but I didn't check what was the right answer.... next time, I will. heh. Anyways, I know I have 2 right, and 2 wrong. For the rest, we'll have to see... we should receive our Economy notes by email, in about a week. Again, 80 minutes were given for the exam, and 30 minutes later, I was out of the class. Then I went home. I read a little, slept a little, watched Ghost Whisperer, talked with my sisters and my nephews (we are babysitting one of my nephews for the week-end), and then started to work on this website.

Nathalie (oldest sister) was supposed to babysit Simon (Melanie (middle sister)'s son), and she usually does, since it's more fun for both Simon and Nicholas (Nathalie's son) when the get to play together... and, Nathalie has lots of toys at her house.. we don't. (Nicholas is 18 months old, and Simon is 15 months old..). So yeah, Nathalie was supposed to babysit Simon, but they were taking Nicholas to the hospital... he was swollen near the mouth, at his feet, and hands and stuff... he also had red spots here and there (not the chicken pocks, a different kind of spots). Nathalie called later, woman at hospital said that Nicholas has a virus >.< ... although the woman mentionned that it should be gone in 2-3 days, she didn't mention if it was contagious, and Nathalie didn't think to ask until they were back on their way, so we're going to be babysitting Simon all week-end, instead of just Friday-Sunday... we don't want to risk Simon getting the virus too.

Anyways, when HP1 finishes, I'm going to be going to bed... (already in bed, just with my laptop on my laps :D), since it's currently 1h05am, and my eyes feel heavy.

*waves to all*

Quizzies from Songokuu )

Anyways, I'm going to go back (or um, start) reading for school... I have a chapter to read for tomorrow (about 30 pages) in Administration, and about 4 or 5 chapters to read for ECO, for Friday. (okay... so I haven't been to class yet :P, and I have a midterm next friday (the 14th). ... so I better read the chapters, and at least (probably) attend class this Friday. I also have CSI to read for, and that, as long as it's before the mid-term. hehe.)

I have Philo midterm the 13th, Micro-Economy midterm the 14th, Spanish mid-term the 17th, CSI (Computer programing) mid-term the 22nd (why I Saturday?!?!), and Administration midterm the 29th (again, why a Saturday?!?... and it's going to be the first exam that I'll take, while being 18 years old :o (my bd is the 28th:P)). ... then another Philo mid-term the 17th of November... but it's my only class with two midterms.

And!... Melanie (my 26 year old sister) is pregnant again :D. ... she had taken a home test, which was positive. Yesterday, she went to have a blood test, and it is confirmed; she's about 4 weeks pregnant... and she should deliver the 12th or 14th of June. (mom wants her to wait till the 20th, which is my mom's birthday). Gonna be weird though, Simon (her other son), is born the 24th of June. .. and my mom would rather she deliver the 12th than the 14th... Louise (dad's girlfriend)'s birthday is the 14th of June... heh. So I'm going to be an aunt for the 3rd time :D. I can't wait to find out if it's a boy or a girl (I have two nephews... no nieces yet.)... Mel better find out when she can *stares* hehe

...*goes to start reading for classes, while watching Star Academie, then Bones, then House, then Close to Home (all that from 7h30 to 11h. hehe) ... I hope that I'll actually get some reading done. heh.

*goes away* *gets hungry*

Thought I should update... heh.

I don't actually have much to say... I have a lot of Uni stuff I have to do (on account of waiting for doing it :P). That includes:
ADM:
- re-reading chapter 1, and adding notes to teacher's notes.
- re-reading chapter 2, and writing notes <-- not obligatory or anything... chapter 2 wasn't viewed in class, but there will be a bonus question on the exam, about chapter 2...
- re-reading part of chapter 3, and adding notes to teacher's notes.
- read chapter 4, and add notes to teacher's notes.
- write an 'etude de cas', for friday.

ESP:
- uh... nothing? hehe. I had a composition, a sheet of exercices, and another thing of exercises, but they are all done..

PHI:
- re-read so something sinks in? heh
- do questions, if I want, to prepare for exams and stuff

CSI:
- do 'travaux pratiques' to make sure I understand... if I want...
- do the homework that was posted Saturday, to be given in at the latest the 11th of October, at noon. (shouldn't take much time to do...)

ECO:
- finish the questions for chapter 1
- read chapter 2, do questions
- read chapter 3, do questions
- read chapter 4, do questions

You see, CSI and ECO, teacher said on the first day, that we didn't have to attend. So, I have yet to attend the classes. hehe. .. ECO, I'm planning to attend this Friday, so I sorta have to do what I wrote above, by then... CSI, I have no clue when I'll attend :D.

Dad and Louise (dad's girlfriend) left Friday for Hawaii, where they'll be passing a couple of days. Then they'll be heading for 6 weeks in Australia, to see Louise's son. (and probably sightseeing too :P). Only thing, they'll be coming back the 7th of November, which will be after my 18th birthday (my bd is the 28th of October). ... and he knew I'd like to go to Australia to meet one of my friends... ... Steph (the one who lives in Australia) is pretty sure that there are stores selling Fullmetal Alchemist merchandise... she's asking her friends(on lj) if they know which. ... I might try to guild my dad in buying me some. hehe.

Mari: Want to go shopping sometimes? Tuesday, before your class, perhaps? ... I want to shop for Steph's birthday/Christmas present... I know I have to send it sometimes in October, if I want it to arrive by Christmas, if it's by boat...

There's something I saw on buffystore.com ... I want it >.< but I know I won't get it... (costs too much). http://www.tvmerch.com/cgi-bin/shop/tvcart.cgi?ACTION=thispage&thispage=buscythe.htm&ORDER_ID=101708692 .. .and also http://www.tvmerch.com/cgi-bin/shop/tvcart.cgi?ACTION=thispage&thispage=buvambk1.htm&ORDER_ID=101708692 ... still gonna ask for it at birthday/christmas though.. you never know. hehe. (and if dad ends up giving money... I could maybe buy it. hehe)

Anyways, I'll be going away now, actually start on the things I wrote above for Uni :P.


Mari: come on msn/aim/yahoo sometimes? .. and don't forget to do Spanish composition, or psychology questions! *has no clue if you have homework in Wicca class*

Stole the following meme from Songokuu.  I had saved it to the computer so that I could do it at uni today... some places on campus have wireless internet, others don't... So while I was waiting for my class to start, I did this. (I was in a non-wireless builing)... and I just remembered about it... heh.

Went shopping today... sorta. Had Orthodontist appointment, so we (mom came with... explaination on why to come in a bit) stopped at the shopping mall first. Mom wanted to get a new cell (as hers sometimes refuses to recharge) and also get me one, and be on a family plan. So I have a cell now :D. Then we went to Marie-Claire, and bought (mom payed) Jacket. Then Ortho, as appointment was in 5 minutes... After that, we went to Walmart, where mom bought milk and cereal, and cake :D... I also bought Hilary Duff's new cd, and Stephanie Lapointe's cd (which got out today). While my mom was paying, she noticed that her debit card was missing. She had used it at Marie-Claire, so we knew that was where she had it last. So we went back to Marie-Claire. Before leaving, my mom had to go to the bathroom, so I went to Coles, which was right besides it. They had Fruits Basket 10, but I wasn't sure which was the last one Mari had... tried calling (on my new cell, btw). But Evil said she was gone to horseback riding. So I didn't get it, in case she already had it. Oh well.

I'm going to go to bed now, being tired (I wanted to sleep more this morning, but having an appointment, didn't want to miss it...).

*waves to all*

*hopes to talk to Mari on msn tomorrow (since she didn't come online today *stares*)*

*goes to bed, and wishes everyone good night*

Went shopping today...

Bought (or, mom did :P) the cubes kinda thing for storage that I had said in the last post. I just have to assemble, and place... hoping to be able to do that tonight. We also bought 2 pairs of glasses :D hehe. I should receive in about 10 days (or well, go get them...). In the last post, I said I'd look for a handbag, or a wallet.. I ended up buying both. But there's logic behind that. I found a purse that I liked, but it was all brown (different shades), but I wanted at least a little black with it. Then I found another purse, brown and black. So bought it.... wallet fits in it, but nothing else does, if I keep the wallet as it is. So I bought a wallet :D hehe. Then bought a sub *nodnod*... it was now 9h, and I was hungry! Then we came home, and it's currently 10h10. I'm planning on moving the sound system, putting up the blocks tonight, but I'm not sure if I'm going to or not. We'll see.

While shopping, when I was in Bentley, girl at counter asked if Simon (14 months old) was mine. Mom said "Oh no!". I added "no, I'm only 17". The women went "Oh! I gave you about 24". Do I look that old? I mean, she's not the first one to give me 24 years old. I'm only 17! (okay, 18 in two months (:o), but still!). And I've now been asked if Nico was mine, and if Simon was mine. *rolls eyes*.

Tomorrow, I'm going to finish packing. Don't feel like it tonight :P.

Mari, tomorrow, I'll call you to make sure you're awake (or come online to tell me, when you do..), at around 11h, since we are leaving at noon. And don't forget the 10-15$... and your debit card, if you want to buy books, and quarters! hehe. ... can wait for the parking money :P. .... and don't forget to be packed! hehe (not you, your clothing :P) ... come on msn?

*floats away* (don't ask)

I haven't done much in the past few days. I did finish my Buffy/Angel marathon, and I also did my laundry! lol. I did say I didn't do much, didn't I?

Seeing it on Songokuu's journal, I did the quiz. It's a "Which DNAngel Character Are You? " I don't read DNAngel, but I decided to take the test anyways.

Results:
You're Daisuke Niwa!
You're Daisuke


Which DNAngel Character Are You?
brought to you by Quizilla


Heh. I say it's right. Even the thing about being a bit on the clumsy side. I wouldn't exactly call it clumsy, but I do hurt myself a lot by stepping on something, or hitting something when I walk, or things like that, so it can count. heh.

Anyways, nothing planned for tomorrow either. Another day of watching tv, and surfing the net. But Thursday, I'm going sorta shopping. I mean, both my sisters have laser treatment tomorrow, so I'm going with them (and now, so's my mom) so that while they have the treatment, we'll be babysitting one of their son (the husband being at work). First, we(mom, me, sister number 1)'ll be stopping at Costco, and I'm going to get boxes of kinds, for storage. (http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.gsp?product_id=2693382) ... they are cheaper at Costco :P. I need storage, and I want to get rid of the sound system in my room (I don't really use it that much, and I want storage!). Then we're going to head to the mall, so that we meet sister number 2 and nephew. Sister 1 and 2 will go to laser treatment, me, nephew and mom will shop around. I'm looking for a black jacket, and mom wants me to get new glasses, and apparently, it's 2 pairs for 149$ at Sears. So we'll go check that out. I might want to look for a handbag too. I bought one the other day, but the more I look at it, the more I'm not sure if I like it >.< ... there's one that my mom has that she doesn't use that I like, but the strap is too big... I could use it if I use the strap of the new one I bought... but I'd have to buy a new wallet, as the one I currently have is too big for it. So either a new handbag, or a new wallet. Will depend on what I find :P. Then we'll probably get back home.

Friday, going to pick Mari up, then head to the University. Pick up parking pass, have Mari's student ID card made (I got mine in July), pick up other books, if they are out! I got my books for 3 out of 5 classes, the other 2 not having been out yet. Can't buy books that I don't know which books to get, now can I? ... anyways, they are all sorted in courses, and then the class itself... maybe check out the glasses, depending if I got some at Sears or not. Then, head to my dad's cottage, for the week-end. We'll be a lot... I mean it. Dad, Louise (dad's girlfriend), Nat (sister), Jean (her husband), Nico (their son), Mel (sister), Pierre (her husband), Simon (their son), Marianne (best-friend), me, and maybe Ben (Louise's son). ... and it's the land without internet... nooooooooooooooooooooo. At least I can still have laptop! hehe. Just no net. Oh well. Also going to bring Fullmetal Alchemist, Fullmoon wo Sagashite and Tru Calling dvds :D hehe. (they are all in the same case.. I just don't know which I'll watch. heh)

Then Monday, nothing again. But Tuesday I have an orthodentist appointment (so I'm going to put my 'appareil' Monday, and keep it until Tuesday. heh. And then Wednesday I have a hair appointment... I finally said ok to it. Of course, it was 3 am when I said ok to mom, but anyways. (I hate going to get my hair cut... I like doing it myself better :P).)

*goes away*

-------

Mari:
1- Dad said okay for me keeping the money you owe him for parking, until he gets back from Australia, so that if I need something for school, I'll have the money for it. That means you don't have to bring the money to the cottage. But you will have to give to me so that I can deposit it at the bank. ... before school start...
2- Want me to bring Harry Potter game?
3- Can't wait to see you :D
4- Wanted to say something, but I forgot :P
5- I guess I won't find it. heh.
6- Come on msn?

Waking up (or being woken up :P) at 8h15 yesterday morning, I got ready to leave. Mom had an appointment at the Chiro at 9h30, and I had an appointment for consultation and maybe treatment at laser treatement. So still tired (and very wishing to be in bed) we left. I waited in the car for my mom's appointment, then when she came back, we left and when to the shopping center. (the laser treatment is in the shopping center...). One thing I can say: "Ouch!". I didn't like it >.< ... I have a very sensitive skin, and so it hurt... but not only that, I have nails. And when something hurts, I have a tendency to put my nails in the palm of my hand... (closing fist, with nails trying to peirce my palm...) so ouchie there too. heh.

Then we did a little shopping (on our way out). Bought (mom payed) a pin-striped suit. I wanted a jacked. Saw one pin-striped. I liked it. Saw there was pants besides it. Took the pants too :D hehe. Then we went to Walmart. They changed locations, so we wanted to see what it looked like. It's now a super store... with actual cold food and all! hehe. And then we went to Farm Boy to pick up fruits, and our supper... already cooked rice with bits of chicken, and already cooked chicken breasts. The only thing, it was only 1h30. hehe. oh well. We got home, talked to Nat a little, put the chicken and rice in the toaster over to heat it up, and ate supper at 4h30. Was good :).

When we talked to Nat, we were able to tell her the prices and all for the laser. (both sisters want it done too..) Nat called Mel, as Mel left for Dubreuiville (now I'm sure I spelled that wrong) this morning, so she called her on her cell, to make appointment for consultation and for laser treatment right after, for both of them, on the same day. They probably would have waited, but there's summer specials, that end at the end of August, and they are worth it... (things would cost 5$, 10$ or 15$ instead of 69$...). We have to go back for another 5 sessions, every 4 weeks. And then more if needed. I'm hoping it doesn't take the 5 sessions. heh. ... my aunt had went 3 times, and she didn't need the rest. Maybe that will happen to me? *hopes*

Anyways, I was so tired, I ended up going to bed at 9h! (*jaw drops*). But now, it's currently 5h25am, and I woke up at 4h30am. That's what happens when I go to bed too early. But I'll probably be going back to bed soon.

---

Something weird's going on... when I woke up, I went upstairs (mouth was dry... needed water... had to go get water bottle upstairs), and I saw lights through the front door window, so I went to see... I live in a "adult community" which is like 6 house stuck together. There was a car in front of one of the "houses" (I think 2 doors down), like he was waiting for someone. Then, someone got in the car (I think back seat, not sure), and they drove off. The thing is, youngest one there has to be at least over 50. (the 4 houses on theright of me, I'm pretty sure are all people over 50. Then there's us. Then there's the 1 house on the left, and they are over 40 (I can't tell the age, but I know they aren't younger that that. Older, maybe, and probably. But since I don't know... giving a minimum :P). I'm the youngest one in this adult community by far.) Those living there being over 50, they wouldn't be going off at 4h30am! Also, when they drove off, they didn't drive foward, but backward... what's going on? Who was at the neighbor's place? Who the heck drives in reverse? (If only it was lighter or something, I could have seen the color of the car, and maybe the license plate :P... never know, something might have happened.. could have reported the license plate or something, if I learn that something went on over there. But it was too dark >.< (like it usually is at 4h30 in the morning! lol).

---

Mari: If you want to talk to me on msn? You'll have to come on earlier than you usually do :P. I'm sorta starting to be on during the day (okay, that's the usual), but trying to get off at around 9h-10h...

John: Have fun moving. And I found Photoshop :D. So whenever you want me to send it, I'll send.

---

That's it for now. Either I'm going to read Buffy/Angel magazine (finished the one I got (Louise bought) Tuesday. But just as I finished it yesterday, I got the Angel magazine in the mail :D (... and it's not even out yet! It's not getting out until the 23rd! hehe.)). anyways, either going to read that, or go to bed. Will see what decides to take over. *yawns* I guess it's bed. heh. *waves to all*

My week-end at the cottage… long so hidden to make it friend's page friendly :) )

Quizzie for friends to take :D )

Quizzie... again. hehe. )

Okay. and now for a little updating. hehe. I haven't done much during the past week... I went to get my student ID card, and went to see Aurore. I bought Ice Princess and Miss Congeniality 2 on dvd. ... that was Monday. Tuesday night (might have been early Wednesday), I emailed dad... Since he has to pay for everything for Uni... I sorta need to know how we'll make it work... I asked whether I could have debit card, over an account that he has control.. cuz I don't want to pay for things, and then bring receipt and he pays back... having a debit card, would be quicker, and easier. (I see him about one week-end a month...) Also asked when he'll be at home so that I can go... (he has cottage too, and he spends time at both...). Wednesday, I downloaded Skype... weird... hehe. (username: Willow_Hawkeye). and that's pretty much what happened during my week >.< ... I've restarted a Buffy Marathon :D. hehe. ... I'm at Disk 5 of Season 2... so 2 disk (4 epis on each) to watch, then Season 3... then 4, then 5, 6, 7... then Angel Season 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 :D. hehe... I'm having fun. ... of course I do other things while watching... I wanna go shopping >.< (but nothing to buy, and no money to spend. heh)... maybe when I get a response back from dad (probably telling me to call him), and that we know how it'll work, money wise... and when I go see him... if I get debit card, I might do my "back to school" shopping earlier. hehe. Anyways, I'm hoping that I'll see him before the 15th, since we can go pick up parking permit starting the 15th of August, and I sorta need money for it...

I went to bed at 1am, this morning... woke up at 2h... tried to fall back asleep, and I gave up, seeing it wouldn't work, at 4h. It's now 5h30. heh. I might go try to sleep later, but right now, I don't think I could fall asleep, so it'll wait a little. heh.

I don't really have anything else to say though... so gonna go away... *goes away*
