what's the difference between you and me?

I have something very exciting to show you tomorrow blog readers. Initially I had planned to post a vlog today featuring two tiny special guest, but it will make an appearance soon enough.
After much consideration i decided to be honest will all of you with the help of some of my friends (a prelude to tomorrow surprise oh la la)

"People talk so much about me in barber shops, they forget to get they hair cut" - Kanye

"It ain't that i'm too big to listen to the rumors, it's just that i'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em" - Dre

"You can tell the people you roll with whatever you want, but you and I know what's going on" - tupac

"Like Cain and Abel, Caesar and Brutus, Jesus and Judas, backstabbers do this. Forgive them father for they know not what they do - It took me a little while to discover wolves in sheep coats who pretend to be lovers. Men who lack conscience will even lie to themselves" - Lauryn Hill

These last few days, a past situation of mine has been brought to light. Someone i loved hurt me in an awful way, and he got hurt in an awful way earlier this year. I never would wish that on anyone, but it was reassurance that karma is a bitch.

That's the difference

its only therapy, thats all that they do

"How happy is the blameless vestal's lot!
The world forgetting, by the world forgot.
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind!
Each pray'r accepted, and each wish resign'd;"
- Alexander Pope

they always get away with attitude, but they'll try to convince you of your mood

sometimes, hearing a story you don't want to hear sobers you
and you realize
oh my god, how did i spend the last two years, 
wait maybe three years so wrapped up in other things

i can't believe i am almost 25
i feel like i graduated from western, was 21, blinked, and here i am
24

fuck eh

bang bang

you know what i think is super unclassy
girls that take off their shoes mid way through a party/wedding/formal/night in general

if you put them on commit to them
if you can't walk in them
don't wear them

it just looks ridiculous

love me, love me, say that you love me

I just got home from work, sat down to watch some tv before taking a shower and do you know what is on right now?
Star Wars.....
you know that some really nerdy dudes just sat down with fast food, saw that movie on and fist pumped....
the tv networks know their demographics... especially on looooove holidays
on that note
happy valentines day to all

i won't mistake you for problems with me

today in the dollar store i hear

"tegan, how are you??" and of course i turn around because im obsessed with tegan and sara - only to see one of the clerks that obviously knows the family talking to a little girl
and then
AND THEN
she turns to the little girls sister and says "sara, you are so big!"

yes... i am not even kidding
ps- the dad was totally young, and obviously a t&s fan

fin

the timing, the structure, did you hear he fucked her

One of the best moments of the last few years




THEY ARE BACK!
I HAVE BEEN WAITING

tom i forgive
Travis' near death sparked the love

never again!

the internets

This is a vlog inspired by Heather ... its in two parts because i'm not good at vlogging yet - anyways enjoy a glimps into our life




fin!

nothing comes as easy as you

Brennan and I are disgusting.

case and point: we have a communal glass that sits on our coffee table.  I don't know how long it has been there, and we both keep filling it up and drink from it.  I always 'knew' this... but i didn't fully grasp it until yesterday when we had this conversation:

Michelle - did you drink out of my glass?
Brennan - does it matter?
Michelle - I guess not
Brennan - well it shouldn't because i just drank out of the bottle you poured out of 5 minutes        ago, and I used that cup yesterday.

germs galore!

don't pretend you ever forgot about me

I have something to admit. I love fallout boy. And not even in a funny way – like they are legitimately one of my favourite bands … I wish that I was joking – but I am most certainly not. I feel like by admitting this I am taking away from other bands I dig – like one musical indiscretion negates my credibility? Either way, I stick by my love – I decided I needed to publicly admit this after realizing I have REAL (not burned) copies of every fallout boy cd in my car…..I mean Jay-z does the intro to their newest cd - that is some serious cred.

So there is this hilarious web site that Bren introduced me to called Fuck My Life – basically it is people sharing stories about their life, and at the end they say FML (fuck my life). I was reading some today, and I had to cover my mouth from laughing out loud since I am at work.
In Ottawa there's been a bus strike for 51 days. I was waiting after work in a parking lot for my ride and was dancing a little to keep warm. Next thing I know the cops pull up to me and said that someone called in to report someone dancing in an empty parking lot. FML
Hilarious? I think so.
Everything is good on the Toronto front – nothing really new – but no news is good news I think? The only thing I can really share is that Bren and I might be going to Bonnaroo which would be crazy fun.

SOOO
Happy Birthday Joanna!

And
Fin!
