just go!

So after hours and I guess more like days of deliberation I finally got my ticket to Die Antwoord about 2 hours before the show was set to start. It took me so long to decide due to the fact no one I knew was going; my boyfriend managed to crash into a bike lane pole and broke his big toe and is 'little hop-along' for the next few weeks, and everyone else I know claims they have no spare money even for the most energetic show they'll see in a long time. Screw all that, I went with a few beers in my stomach, a lot of mashed potato left-overs and a strong urge to have an amazing time no matter what. And that's exactly what I did. All by myself I had an awesome time. I met some new people, got covered in sweat/beer/water, kicked in the head by a crowd surfer, pushed and shoved for the duration of the entire show but it was all worth it. I managed to get out of the show spending less than $100 which I was a little worried about since I am on a budget. I'll just have to cut back on the snacks from TnT even if they are covered in addicting MSG goodness.. Bad!

Bad me. I need to smarten up and start cleaning up my eating act, cut back on the iced coffees and pizza. Spicy potato pizza is my one junky-goodness downfall. Whenever I see it I must have it, and when I can't find it I hunt it down or order an entire pizza to-go.

It's potato pizza time. Way to go me.

good day vancouver

I’m still surprised to wake up every morning in my new bed, in my new room, in my new city of Vancouver. I don’t really miss Edmonton or even the island for that matter. I think my time is done there and it was definitely my time to move on. I find myself thinking of some of my old friends and wonder what they’re doing these past few months but I just wish everyone would just wake up! and move on and experience something other than a small town and what it has to offer. I found I was stuck in a rut, running around in circles, working just enough to keep my belly full and to keep a roof over my head and to entertain myself here and there. Now I’m here. In Vancouver attending school, and attempting to start something new for myself and I can say that I am much happier despite being completely overwhelmed. It’s a good thing, being overwhelmed I mean. I felt pretty empty before I actually had something to work towards even if I do seem to be a little more irritable as of late. My boyfriend is keeping me all together and in one piece. I am so grateful for him, even if I do rag on him for not doing his dishes, or leaving toothpaste globs in the sink.

Here’s to the future; I’m ready for whatever it’s going to chuck in my general direction!
