Its only like 0*C here suckers!

So here I was expecting to drive ~13 hours and to end up in alaska, guess what! Minimal snow and minimal cold suckers! It was actually warmer than kelowna when I arrived yesterday! The best part is I know nothing! Brenan took me for a drive yesterday to try and help me with the basic layout, but other then that, nothing. Thanks to everyone who made it out for a drink or six with me and I will miss the house people dearly. However I am just a plane ride or a 13 hour drive away! Along the way here i encounter a couple problems, the Jettas cd player went a little crazy and kept fighting the music, eventually it succame to my terrorist demands and played "Boston" by "Augustana" (thanks Katie) for 3 hours straight, as well as "We takin' over" by "Dj Khaled".

So its morning one of me being in Brenan and Calzones glorious house ((its reallllllllly beautiful) It could use some landscaping though) for the first hour I tried to figure out how to brew coffee from an advanced albertan coffee machine, after many texts to tech support (Callie) I finally figured it out. The coffee is hardly the El Salvadorian brew that Billy and I were sporting... I mean I can still smell and see after my first glass... What kind of coffee is this... Anyways Its time for me to shave off the up north beard so that I can try and get a job.

Peace out love muffins

Saying goodbye never gets easier

It seems so hard to let someone go who you truly wanted to be a major part of your life. Yet all you can really do is that them go and hope that everything you ever wanted for them can be supplied by someone else. As long as they are happy and everything works out right? It still sucks on your end, its hard to cope with the realization that you may never see this person again and its probably for the best this way. Last full day in town, last night in town...

I'll miss everyone

later

Life is neither a problem to be solved nor a game to be won

Slow dance, By David L. Weatherford

Have you ever watched kids
On a merry-go-round

Or listened to the rain
Slapping on the ground?

Ever Follow a butterfly's erratic flight?
Or gazed at the sun into fading night?

You better slow down.
Don't dance so fast.

Tims is short.
The music won't last.

Do you run through each day
On the fly?

When you ask: How are you?
Do you hear the reply?

When the day is done,
do you lie in your bed

With the next hundred chores
Running through your head?

You'd better slow down.
Don't dance so fast.

Time is short.
The music won't last.

Ever told your child,
We'll do it tomorrow?

Ever lost touch,
Let a good friendship die

Cause you never had time
To call and say, "Hi"?

You'd better slow down
Don't dance so fast

Time is short,
The music won't last

When you run so fast to get somewhere
You miss half the fun of getting there.

When you worry and hurry through your day,
It is like an unopened gift thrown away.

Life is not a race.
Do take it slower.

Hear the music
Before the song is over.

Everyone should read "The 4-hour work week" It changed my life. It has changed my perspective on numerous things. That and many of the people I have met in the last 6 months have completely changed me and I would like to thank everyone. Certain people more than others, you know who you are.

The science of selling yourself short

Music... Man do I love music. Mostly the lyrics, especially when they just make sense.
I love discovering a new song that feels like it was written for me, about my life, at this specific point in time... I constantly am on a quest to discover said music to enjoy hours upon hours of listening. So many songs have had seen countless hours in my car, in my house, and on my ipod. If anyone has ever been to my house they know that the TV is never on and it is constantly music from my computer. Random tracks from the nine thousand five hundred and seventy seven songs that have gathered on my laptop. Anything from Tom Petty to LMFAO, all genres, all everything = more betterness. I will always have a weak spot in my heart for punk covers though, and anything by the Mars Volta... In any case, Leaving saturday, packing is becoming more urgent.

Listen to the lyrics...

Life on standby

It seems like as the move approaches everything else in my life is being put on hold. The more I think about moving the more selfish with my time I get. All my schemes and plans are just at a rest until I am packed and cleaned, and out. And as time approaches and I say goodbye to the people that I care about the most it gets harder and harder to commit so such an ordeal. Even after saying goodbye it just hits me, was that really goodbye? I feel like I should have hugged them longer... Tying up all the loose ends... Anyways, If you want to say goodbye apparently the 805 patty house will be hosting a going away fiesta on friday.

Day 5

So with the moving date constantly moving around itself it is making my life a little more chaotic. After my childhood pet Kitcat continues to have seizures it has become an unanimous decision that it is time to put her down. Not going to lie, I have shared my bed with this cat for roughly 15 years and its most likely going to be the hardest thing I've ever had to do. At what point is it alright to euthanize something? Who am I to decide that her life is no longer worth living? After much debate and realization that she no longer can see/hear, she has seizures frequently, and just eats/sleeps/bathrooms all day, I think it is time. Apparently when cats purr it is not a good indication of happy.

On a much lighter note I have been conned into drinking come friday apparently for a going away party, So if you would like to come please give me a message

Packing....

So I have decided that all I am to bring on my sweet move with me is clothes, workout equipment, and my laptop... the last two parts are easy, the whole Clothes part, not so much. So I have pretty much decided to sell all the lululemon stuff I will no longer be using/have never worn, if you are interesed in purchasing anything the going rate seems to be 25$ for T-shirts and 45$ for hoodies. I can send pictures if one would like as I pick out which will stay and which will be voted off the island. Pretty much everything is a medium...

And for the record "Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs" is an amazing movie and everyone should watch it
