I'm Back! :D

I just got back from Halifax today! It was a very intense trip, trying to pack in as much touring of the city as was humanly possible and not freezing to death while we were at it. And the first day we spent only $8 CD on food (two samosas) and that night we slept for 16 hours (grrrrr jet lag!!!). The second day we ate at a  coffee shop twice and a little restaurant called Bluenose II (it wasn't that great) and we slept for 8 hours. The third day we ate lunch at The Wooden Monkey and had dinner at The Press Gang (lunch was amazing and dinner far surpassed it![ they both cost more then we usually would spend on food, but it was so amazing!!!!]) and slept for 4 hours. It's a good thing we didn't stay longer at the rate we were going we would have been spending maybe $200 for food and slept 2 hours if we stayed for a fourth day!!! I think it's funny how each night we had half as much sleep as the last! And the second day I noticed it and told my sister they way we were going, that night we would only be getting 4 hours of sleep....and sure enough we did! Honestly, I didn't even try and do that! Honest!

Hopefully soon I will download my pictures to the computer and post lots of them! Yay! Pictures! :)

Big News!!!

I do realize that I haven't blogged in a long time, but no one seemed to be visiting my blog so I really didn't feel too much like just talking to myself. If I'm writing a email to someone or I know I will get feed back I'm much more likely to feel a obligation to write!!! So why aren't people on my blog commenting!!!! Where is my sister!!? I've been commenting on you're blog why aren't you commenting on my bloooooog!!!!!  *inhale....exhale* Okay, I'm fine now. It's maybe better that she doesn't comment on mine :S



The Big News: Tonight I'm leaving for Halifax!!!! That's in Nova Scotia if you didn't know....which is in Canada....which is on a planet by the name of Earth....which is in some galaxy or another...so on and so forth. And me and my sister are going there because we have a bit of time (without classes, still not free from the piles of homework) because of reading break, also known as spring break, but more appropriately known as suicide prevention week!!! Spring break was started because of the high rate of suicides during this time....I'm starting to understand why that is :P A break will defiantly be well deserved :) But it won't just be a relaxing vacation, we have a lot of city to cover! Especially NSCAD (Nova Scotia College of Art and Design) we were and have been both considering attending NSCAD and actually my sister was accepted there last year but decided to go to another school because they didn't get the acceptance letter out as soon as another school and she decided that she would just go somewhere a little closer. So this year I sent in my application and now all I can do is wait and see what happens! :o Aaaaah!

Halifax!!!

The people in Halifax seem to be really friendly and Nova Scotia is beautiful!!! I have always liked water and the idea of living near some...and Halifax is right on the Ocean! :) It just seems like a very inspiring place to live and the people seem to be very creative and more apt to making things then here. There's quite a few art stores and there's even a pottery supply store! And so many lovely old buildings! And gardens! And light houses! Ahhhh!
