Mousin' Around

Over the last few years since we moved to this house we have experienced some little friends - mice.
They live in our garage and garden and are driving my mother up the wall. 
Every time she catches one she cries because she knows its dead. We usually always use the container ones with the poison because then you cant see the actual dead mouse , however , this time we tried modernized versions of the old wooden and wire traps.
We put some peanut butter on it and waited and whadya know , we caught one almost instantly!
unfortunately though , it didnt die.....
It only got its poor little foot stuck in it.... which still made my mother cry...

The poor mouse would not stop squeaking and squirming - which made me squeak and squirm too...
I almost wish that it died instantly... would have been better for everyone.

Now because my mother and i freaked out neither of us have the guts to touch or move it....so we put a pot over it.
hopefully that will calm it down and it will give us some time until we have to deal with it....
and by deal with it i mean wait for either torrie or my brother to come here and maybe they have the guts to get rid of it..... poor little guy :(

When All Else Fails, Use the Grittle!

So tonight im making dinner as per usual but unfortunately it all goes wrong.
were it started to go wrong was me being frustrated to being with from the fact that my bedroom is taking forever to get completed. - cooking while unhappy is never a good idea!
So i have this bruschetta pizza in my freezer so i say alright to that and an awesome pear-kiwi-strawberry yogurt smoothie.
The smoothie turns out awesome of course but the pizza..... not so much
i put it in the oven and it seems like its gonna be fine , but it wasnt at all.
turns out i set the wrong temperature and also forgot to take the tinfoil off our rack.... the bottem would just NOT COOK.
even once i fixed everything - which clearly was to late - it still would not cook!.
i tried covering just the top with tinfoil so that it wouldnt burn the top
i tried turning the heat up.
nothing was going to work.
that was when i got my grittle pan out. why not right
so i put it on there and would you believe it , it cooked it perfectly.

tasted pretty good too! gonna have to test out some more foods on this baby!

Lettin' the Good Times Roll!

Last night was a girls night out. me , ariffa , and sister torrie decided to head down to the hifi club and have some good fun and let me tell you , it was definitely fun.
We had a blast.
Shit talking the lame guys in the bar....
Doing some dancing ....

and some drinkinn ....

and running away from foreign men and chilling after hours.



the real excitement , however , started up once we - torrie and i - got back to my place.

Torrie was veryveryvery drunk.

She couldnt form sentences , she was vomitting some. she was feeling the affects of a lot of alcohol.

Here i am being the best sister ever trying to get her to drink some water that she decides would be a good idea to pour allllllll over me. then as im pulling her up the stairs she desides to fall up and crash right on top of me.... so we laid at the top of the stairs laughing our ass's off for a good 5 minutes.

Finally then i get her to the bathroom and then to bed.

All that took us to about 6 in the morning....

yep gotta say it was an eventful night.

This spills over to today as well though. Basically I was torries nurse today haha

Thank you Ariffa and Torrie for a good time and the memories!!

When Your Feelin' Down....

Today i had a nervous break down.
Honestly i was a little worried for not only myself , but anyone who would come into contact with me had a good chance of getting knocked the fuck out and continuously beaten apon untill they were twitching from brain damage....brutal? little over the top? maybe , but its how i felt.
The fighting between my family and i has gotten to a point were no one wants to be with there family.
This insaneness has been going on for about 4 years and im just so so tired.
tired of it all.
My friend ariffa asks me what happend because naturally i took some of my rage out on facebook and wrote an "i hate you" status.
I explain what happens and she sends me this picture

which makes me laugh but also cry because i mean i hear that all the time and hopefully one day everything will be alright.

One day ill be out of here. out of the crazy hell hole im in right now.

one day ill be were i want to be and it will be alright.

Untill then i have my dreams , my boyfriend , and my girls to keep my spirit up.

Shed Filled Saturday

So saturday my boyfriend calls me up and asks if i wanna help him build his shed....
first thing that runs through my head is why are you asking me of all people , then i realize well why not right? ive put things together before. building a shed shouldnt be hard. not to mention he doesnt know if i suck or not so...anyways i said id help him.
So we get to his place and the base was built to big but like genious' we said fuck it and built on it anyways.
Now this shed is definitely going to leak there is no doubt about it. there were so many holes and honestly we just didnt give a fuck how this thing was put together. we were cold and just so over building this thing.
everything was bent. nothing fit together right we had left over pieces. and the roof , man oh man let me tell you about the roof.
Because the base was to big and we bent the walls , the roof obviously wasnt going to fit on properly. the holes / spaces between some of the parts were big enough to fit your hand through.
what a shit show...
So to fix our awesome handy work we decided to use this cocking stuff and duck tape to try and fill it in... lol , it filled it in alright but got everywhere and probably still wont keep the rain and snow out. anyways we definitely needed something better so emri went and got spray foam. that shit also got everywhere. just a mess , the whole thing , disaster.
Afterwards we were so cold from being outside till dark and it not being that nice out emri grabs a sleeping bag and all of a sudden tells me " i have the best idea! lets both get in the sleeping bag! "
lol well you can only imagine right.
We both are standing on his bed and are squished together as if we are one big fat person and trying to zip up this sleeping bag. Then once we finally get the sleeping bag on - can you believe we actually got it on - we looked at each other and started laughing because neither of us knew how to lay down without falling from the bed to the floor heads first. so we are trying to sit down but we are facing each other so we are just hitting each others knees and its just a disaster. we end up falling sideways and just collapsing. it was hilarious - kids dont try that at home.

Needless to say it was an eventful mess of a saturday.
Next project , my bedroom carpet.... fingers crossed it goes better then the shed

G.T.L Baby!

Long Weekends Every Weekend

So my weekends now run through from friday to monday - weuuuu
Basically what I did this weekend was hang out with my boyfriend and use my magic bullet - im in love with my magic bullet.
Over the weekend me and emri ( boyfriend ) went to cochrane to meet up with his friend tim so they could use the skate park there. We got lucky and they were the only ones in the park - i got to do homework while they bmx'd.... so lucky right.
We didnt stay long cause it was way to fuckin hot out.
We also checked some stuff out at bowness park and went and saw that new Apollo movie.
I was freaked the fuck out. I was jumping like every second and let me tell you... I will never look at a rock the same - good movie though. go see it!

My Magic bullet is the best tool in my kitchen. Ive been making so many different combinations of smoothies ive lost track but m m mmmmm they have all been CRAZY deliscious! - seriously if you dont have one go get one!
Ive made ones like

• Strawberry-banana - duh... also made one with some mango alize added -tee hee
• Kiwi-pear
• raspeberry-banana-strawberry
• apple pear-nectarine

and many more
Anyways that was my weekend basically.
back to school on tuesday... gotta finish my math homework... seems to be getting easier to do the work though.. must have been a frist-day-freak-out - fewf!....wish me luck though!

Back to Hitting the Books!

Yesterday was the first day of my math upgrading class.

I wanna start off by saying what the fuck was I thinking!!! ...

Seriously I must have hit my head or lost my mind completely when I though I would actually be able to one - do any sort of math work and two - do it at a fast pace and keep up!

Now maybe I am just being paranoid because well I hate math , but also I am 3 years rusty at even going to class never mind a math class - did I mention I hate math.... like with a passion?

I was definitely not expecting to walk into the first math class and get right to work on the lesson(s).

Ya lessons... we did 3 in one class... which I had no idea would happen.

I wanted to cry. By the time I sort of knew what I was doing in the first lesson , we had done 2 other lessons and it was the end of class. 

I totally started beating myself up over it - common brain pick it up for fuck sakes!

I have nice friends though. Ariffa texted me later on in the day and was trying to be motivational..

Text : You are not [going to fail] Confidence! Excitement weooooooooooooooooooooh! Future! Eye on the prize! - I can totally hear how she would be saying all this and trust me she wouldnt be saying it in this exciting "go you go" attitude even though she means it that way... if you really wanna know how she would sound just read the sentence to yourself and pretend the exclamation marks arent there. What she finishes the motivational sentence with proves it - Ill stop now!!

Surprisingly she is super motivating though. I heart her.

Afterwords me and my boyfriend went to get something to eat and register his new car.

Then we headed out to Canmore so he could do a little bmxing. 

We grabbed some awesome pizza from Pizza Construction - sooo yummy - and then headed on home. 

By the time we reached home I was dead tired. 

From waking up so early in the morning then stressing my brain out to its breaking point - beyond repair I think - to driving to Canmore and back I just could not stay awake. 

I had even attempted to right this very blog... but there was no way it was happening.

So with that I just gave up trying to fight off the sleepiness and just laid down and passed right the fuck out.

Which brings me to this morning, waking up to get my brother off to school , make a fresh & yummy banana-raspberry smoothie and seeing my puppy <3

Start to a great morning so far , however , stupid math is still in the back of my head taunting me.

which reminds me I need to finish my math homework for tomorrow - sigh.

Getting Schooled in Molded Fashion

So its back to school starting tomorrow.
My little brother is starting grade 11 and im upgrading my math 30 - hurray :s
I went to do some laundry so that my brothers uniform was clean and I had something to wear to school that wasnt sweat pants and a baggy t-shirt...
What happend though made me so mad I couldnt even blog about it...
okay so we had put some bags of clothing outside for a few days and we forgot about them.... so now half of them are covered in mold because of the rain and then hot weather... ITS FUCKING DISGUSTING!!!!!
But what can you do right?
So now I have like a science experiment in my back yard which consists of big buckets full of water and vinegar with the clothing soaking in them. Afterwards i will put them through my wicked washing machines that are like washing magic and hopefully that works - stay tuned for results...

I would show you pictures but seriously.. I just cant even deal with that right now.. to angry - sigh...

Todays lesson?
Do not leave bags of clothing outside when you live in calgary.... the weather is way to unpredictable.
Now you know / i know what happens when you leave bags of clothing outside in rainy / extremely hot weather...
sigh

Imagine

So I know I am probably not the first person to be writing about this video in particular and I definitely know I am not the first person to be writing about something like this ever but I just gotta past it on.
This video made me burst into tears - seriously I could not control myself , was a little embarrassing.
Watching videos like this makes my heart hurt even more because its like why cant there be more people like the mother in this video... why cant there be more people who adopt little children with missing limbs and such...
Dont get me wrong Im not saying everyone should go adopt someone , but people should learn to be more caring and see the beauty no matter where they go.
Imagine were we would all be in life if we cared and saw the beauty in things even half as much as this lady...
Cheers to this amazing women!

Note : keep lots and lots of tissue near by before watching!

The Rebirth!

I have been racking my brain trying to figure out why I cant seem to "blog properly "

But what really is the "proper " way to blog you might ask?

Good question!! If you find out would you let me know?

...Seriously though, I am so frustrated with my writings that it was making me not want to do it. It felt like a burden...

Then I got wind of what my friend Ariffa was doing.

She was having some issues/ identity crisis with her blog as well which caused her to redo everything.

She gave it a new name, changed the layout, the whole shebang and it looks great!

Ariffa is oh so inspiring and wise. She is my go-to-girl!

Check her out!

... gentleman, did I mention she is single and can cook like no other...

So with that I took it upon myself to also change up my blog and such because well....Im no longer in a crisis or distress - which if you have been following me since the beginning you would know that! - and most people dont wanna read a rant now do they.. so I switched it up.

I wanted something new, fresh, and fun. Something that I could relate to better now that my life is getting somewhere that isnt depressing...

And so "Days of My Life" is born!

And let me tell you, it wasnt easy....

This thing took me alllll fricken day and more patients then I have!

With that, I hope you like it!

Me & My Magic Bullet

So I got me a Magic Bullet a little while ago and just recently started getting really into using it. :)

Ive been making smoothies like crazy.
Tonight I made one that Im really fond of. It was so yummy.
Granted its nothing exciting or brand new and never thought of but still... Im going to show you anyways.

I was looking in my not so very stalked fridge trying to come up with something to make for dinner.

I saw me some eggs and ketchup and I was like okay, egg sandwiches.

Then I saw me some kiwi's and pears and thought... might as well use them.. would hate to let them go to waste..

SO I made the egg sandwich and ate it.

Then I set to work on my smoothie.

Cut me up some kiwi's and pears

Put them in the cup & added some ice ice baby..

Then mixed this shit up

Added some nummy nutella! and mixed that in real good.

Which created this deliciousness <3

M M MMMM. By far my favorite thing Ive produced with my bullet.

Anyone eles out there have a magic bullet with which they created one of there favorite things to eat??

Hit me with some ideas, im all ears !!!!!!

F.U.

So these last few days I have been very stressed and what not and I have just one thing to say.

FUCK YOU!!!!!!!

...you know who you are and if you dont then maybe you should take 30 seconds to pay attention...

SO sick of your guys shit...

That is all.

The Shitty Surgery Experience!

So the other day I finally got all my wisdom teeth out and let me tell you, it was somethin' else!

Heres how it went down...

I get up that morning and unfortunately Im already panicing.

Surgery/ teeth are not my forte..Ive had penty of surgeries before and I had braces so obviously pulling teeth isnt new to me...still though.. I never had any smooth sailing experiences...

Like when I was little I had to get 4 teeth pulled to be able to put my braces on.. ya turns out I dont take to the freezing like AT ALL, the dentist didnt care nor was he interested in trying to find another way.. so he just pulled them out..WITH OUT freezing.. I know can you believe it?!!

Anyways so as time is ticking away im getting more and more nervous. Luckily I have an amazing boyfriend who called me and gave me a little pep-talk and tried to insure me that everything was going to be okay. :)

Sadly, everything wasnt going to be okay :( ....

We get to the dentists office and I can hear him talking to another mom about how her daughters surgery...it didnt sound good but apparently it went very routine... FUCK  O_O...

Anyway shortly after that they gave me a form to sign...on it was possible things that could happen during the surgery.. like fracturing my jaw, cutting nerves.. cool shit like that..this made me panic even moree.

Finally it was my turn to go in. I jumped when they called my name, this was not going to be easy or fun and I knew it. I get to the chair and the nurses were nice, luckily, however they still didnt make the situation any better. they started explaining how things were going to go and it freaked me the fuck out. saying that im just gonna be heavily sedated and then there gonna freeze my mouth.. O_O

According to them though I have an athletes heart...?? lol, I know me? of all people right.

Anyway, I kept forgeting to breath so the thing would beat like crazy which scared tthe shit out of me and also didnt help the situation. Then they put this huge breathing mask thing on my nose which was a little intimidating.

At this point im already panicing.. then the dentist comes in with a needle to put the IV in me and I start freaking out. The needle hurt like a bitch and the whole thing started to become over whelming!

 I started crying and I couldnt breath, Im sure if you were looking from above you would think this was some horror movie were they were trying to cut me open and shit against my will..

So they started to up the dosages on everything and one of the nurse was trying to calm me down/ hold me down.

It was just a disaster! I passed right out some time after that, and I was so sedated that I dont remember what happen when I woke up or how I got home...

Here I am when I got home.. haa

The first day was a little crazy. My face was numb, I had been trumatized, and swollowing pills was no easy task,  there was blood everywhere. I just remember being soooooo unbelieveably thirsty :( worst feeling ever.

Good thing I have my boyfriend. He was so sweet and tried to make me feel better <3

And now today wasnt that bad I guess... pfffffftttt what am I saying it was complete shit!

Im starving and still thirsty, im weak and to top it off.. I started vomitting... do you know how hard and painful it is to vomt when you just got your wisdom teeth out?!! Let me tell you, its no easy fucking task.

This whole wisdom teeth thing is going to kill me :'(

The Mashed Potatoe

Okay if you read my previous enrty you already know whats going on, if not...go read it because Im not explaining it again.
Last night I was trying to think of things that I would be able to eat
Here are the giude lines to which I must stick to so as to not cause any more pain then there is..

1. Must be in liguid or mushed form
2. Must be able to slide down my throat easily
3. Cant taste like shit! -very important..

So with those rules I set off -well I didnt really go anywhere, I just stayed put because I was feeling reallly dizzy and just made my brain go to work..:)- to look for something to eat because to be honest...bye this point I hadnt really eaten anything over the last 4 days so I needed to get something!!

I got the usual shit like ice cream and yogurt and apple sauce and then... MASHED POTATOES!
I made my mom make me some right that instant and holy balls! It was amazing.

Note to everyone: If you need something to eat and you cant move your jaw and you are sick of ice cream, mashed potatoes are the best thing to have.

They were delicious one, and two they were smooth and soft and creamy.....mmmmm like a dream.
You can have different flavors/kinds to like sweet potatoes... :O, dont even get me started on sweet potatoes! AND mix your apple sauce with themmmm!!! its yummy.

The mashed potatoe will be my life saver for the next 2 weeks

Not So Wise Wisdom Teeth...

So a few days ago my wisdom teeth decided they were gonna try and push there way out..
They were unsuccessful.
So they got the great idea to try and find a new way out...
I have a very tiny mouth and there is not much room in there for anything extra.
This means that instead of them just growing into my mouth and causing pressure on my teeth,
they are growing into the nerves in my jaw...and pushing on my teeth... WTF!
Honestly it is the most painful thing ever! -next to having your ear drum crack..which has happend to me...
Now I ended up going to an emergency dental clinic to get checked out and they said I needed to have surgery within 24-48 hours and prescribed me some T3's..
If you have read my blog previously you will already know that I do not take well to medicine...
Taking these was no exception.
They dont even get rid of all my pain.. they just slow my heart rate down and knock me out and I become all dizzy and shit... NOT FUN!!

So not only am I in extreme pain through out my whole face, the medicine that is supposed to give me some relief isnt even giving me relief...sigh :'(
...Oh..and the best part.... I cant get in to have surgery for another 13 days.... FUCK!

Someone just take me out back and shoot.

Sob Stories

So I have a bone to pick...actually its not really bone picking, its just something that I've noticed that REALLY is grinding my gears...
Has anyone else noticed that EVERYONE who is on any dancing, singing, or talent show all have the same god damn story..
"oh I grew up poor"
"I had a hard life"
"im lonely"
Blah, Blah, BLAH

Now am I being a little mean? Maybe
Am I being a little sour because I too have a shitty life like them and im not on TV talking about it....? Maybe
But I mean honestly... Hearing the same "rags to hopefully riches" story is soo not original anymore.
Its hard to feel sorry for someone or anything because the fucking world is just a wreck
There is no originality on this shit anymore.
So tragic.
Maybe its just me?  I dunno. Even if it is just me... Im fine with being a little selfish and ask for some fuckin new shit.
SOMEONE ROCK MY WORLD PLEASE!

Stairs, Stairs, and More Stairs

So my friend Ariffa and I went and ran some stairs last night..
This is our adventure,

First we had something to eat, I had a pb and plum flax sandwich -which made my stomach hurt, dont use plums before doing activites..bad idea.

Then I was dropped off at Eau Claire were I met up with Ariffa.
Then we set out looking for a kickass set of stairs.
We sorta got lost a bit thanks to construction and ended up taking a detour in a circle for no real reason.
But we power walked through it and got to the stairs!!

-power walking

-the stairss

Might I just add that it was hella hot out last night/day. weeuuuu!!

Then we got down to business, working them legs and getting out hearts pumpin!

-Go Ariffa!

-Go me!!

Now of course Ariffa kicked my ass cause shes so super duper athletic and shit, but I did pretty good in my books!

I ran that shit 4 times.. weeeuu!!

It was awesome.. 

Course, we still had our fun..

300 stairs later....

Lately I have not been okay with my weight and my body shape...
So I am jumping into action.. No more being lazy, no more eating shitty food.
I am kicking my own ass into high gear!
So today after having an amazing day in court -will explain what happen in a minute- I took that adrenaline anddddddd ran up and down 300 stairs...
Well I only had 10 stairs but I ran up and down them 30 times.. which = 300.. :)
FUCK YA IM AWESOME.
There is these double set of stairs near my house that have like a million stairs and I want to be able to run up and down them consistently for an hour.. not fast running but just consistently running up and down.. that is my goal... and I will reach it god dammit!
However, this is gonna take some time for sure because Im fucking DYING from only the 300 stairs.. good god.
I like literally can not walk right now.. its the worst. My poor jello legs.. waa :(

Now about court... IT WENT SO EFFING AWESMOE!!!!
We got the support we were expecting and my dad got dressed down HARD.
It was epic.
Things are gonna turn around now and its great!

Im Lacking...

So over the last little while I have noticed that I've been lacking in a lot of ways...
I lack being as fun as I know I am and can be..
I lack being as healthy as I usually am..
I lack motivation..
I just LACK.... I'm a lacker...
This is causing me to become lazy and boring and I feel like shit.. blehhhhhk :(
Only good thing happening right now is my boyfriend <3...but honestly I cant just become all creepy obsessive over him and do nothing but be crazy about him -thats not attractive.

Soooooo I think it is time to do some little consistant things.. like a mini challenge blog like the one I did that I never got to finish.. :(
BUT just so you know, I have been doing some of the stuff on that list that I could have added to it but they were done so far apart that it didnt seem worth it to put in on the blog.. so..ya.

I am gonna start doing shit again.. cause its now summer and I should be having the time of my life right!
Which is what I am going to do.. :)

p.s.
Stay tuned for an update this friday about how my life is gonna change!!!!!!!
If you read my other blog you know why I started blogging in the first place..
and that reason is why I am going to court this friday..things are about to change and its gonna be awesome!!

Blog Clogged!

I have found myself being very frustrated with this whole blogging thing.
I have a million and 2 things that I want to and could be writing about..but I dont.
Sure there are some reasons and excuses that are...reasonable and excusable.. :).. :S
BUT in my head there is no reason why I cant be writing this shit down..
Its like I go to sit down and and tell this amazing story... buttt nothing comes out. :(
Its so sad, and frustrating..like I said..

If anyone can give me some insight as to how I can fix it... PLEASE HELP!!
Cause I love blogging. honest I do.

The Day After...Today...so, tomorrow...

Apparently the world is going to end tomorrow.. May 21,2011...ftw!?
This so called "Judgement Day" is a load-a-shit.
Im not saying that it could never happen and yaddy-yadda,
but there are so many different theorys on this whole "Christ will return and his none followers will suffer" shit.
Like the whole Mayan stuff...according to them the world isnt ending untill 2012.

So which is it...May 21, 2011. Or  2012??

Heres my theory... shut the fuck up and who cares...
Whether it really is tomorrow that we all get screwed over or a year from now,
yammering on about when its actually going to happen is just wasting the time you do have left.
Personally I would rather spend my last moments in life not knowning when my world is going to explode...
makes those remaining moments just that much more beautiful doesnt it?

The Basement Troll.

Alright I have finally had just about enough from the idiot living in the basement suite of my house.
Let me just make something clear here first, the suite that is in my basement is an ILLEGAL suite.
So he shouldnt even be there to begin with, unfortunately he came with the house.

Now sit back and get ready to read about the most pathetic, annoying, and ridiculous thing your ever going to read about a person.

I call him a troll because well... he practically is one.
He sits in his room waiting and, as he says," makes a log", of my families daily noise activity.
.....WTF is that I tell ya? Like for real?
This is because according to him we are purposely trying to disturb his life and make a shit load of noise and what not...
He even came up to me and called me a liar for denying that I was trying to keep him awake by coughing so much...Is he for real? Like I even have time to waste sitting there coughing just to keep him awake at night and shit. How stupid can you be? Its called being sick..Its a fact of life.

Then the other night he gives us a reply to a letter we wrote to him asking him for his share of the utilities and explaining why it is the amount it is. The bill is split 1/3, 2/3 as our landlord told us that is the standard. He only wants to pay 1/5....is he crazy??
Since we moved into this house and started renting it we have been paying the entire bill because our idiot landlords told us that getting the money from the troll (other tenant) is in our hands? Why they made it like that who fuckin knows.

As a side note, our landlords are first time landlords so they honestly have no idea what they are doing. clearly - im surrounded by morons I tell ya!

Anyways, the reply he gave us, all his points had absolutely NOTHING to do with paying the effing bill.
He was going on about shit like how, because of us, he is in debt - which he wouldnt be in if since the beginning he started paying even a little untill we had the proper amount sorted out.
And that he wants to get a drum set and that because we have to much stuff there is no room for him to use the garage -well guess what, the garage isn't even part of his renting contract, its part of ours and only ours. HE has no right to the stupid garage. Not to mention putting a drum set in a place your renting with other tenants is SO inappropriate.
And how he is "oh so super thrifty" and because he is, he shouldnt have to pay for so much of the utility bill...We dont make the rules. It doesnt matter if you spend one hour a day in the place your renting, the rent is the rent. It does not matter how much of what you use or how long your there.

Anyways, he and my mother get into an argument over this because, well... its self explanatory. Hes an idiot.
My mother starts yelling and he starts yappin away yet again about shit that has nothing to do with paying the bills and he all of a sudden says a winning comment like" Why are you arguing with me? I won awards in highschool for arguing!"
......HA HA HA HA....is that so? Did you also get marks good enough to put on your mothers refrigerator??
What a dumb shit eh? Like is he kidding, who effing cares about your highschool achievements...

Now he is avoiding us, surprise.
Cant wait for the day he gets to annoyed and just dips out.
He really has ZERO clue what renting is really like.

"Buckley's" Believe It or Not

If you havent already figured it out from my previous entry I have a cold.
Its only in my nose though! Still as shitty as anything.
Anyways, I am going camping tomorrow with my boyfriend, sister, and her boyfriend
which means... I CAN NOT BE SICK!.
I needed something even more drastically magical then Vicks VaporRub....
This ment only one thing.........BUCKLEY'S

It was my only hope. I had to do it.
So because I was a Buckley's virgin and have never ever taken it before in my life simply based on the facts that
1. Everyone always says how absolutely disgusting and horrific it is.
2. I dont usually take well to most medicines. Eg, all the warnings of shit on the bottle that can happen to you and if they do you should call your doctor immidately, yaa thats what I usually go through.

Anyways I forced my mother into the bathroom with me to stand there to make sure I didnt die or fall over or whatever. I took the Buckley's in one hand and juice in the other ready to counter act this GAWD awful taste everyone tells me about.
Then 3, 2, 1..... shot it back and started panicing/forcefully pouring as much juice into my mouth as humanly possible!. There was jucie everywhere.

The rumors were true. The taste was legit the worst ever.
BUT it did start to work almost instantly.
So far the only shittyness im feeling from this medicine is very heavy arms... hopefully that'll be it.
We shall see.

All in all though, my frist Buckley's experience I survived.... at least I havent died yet.. lol

Vick's VaporRub

So I just gotta say, of all the things invented Vick's VaporRub has to be one of the BEST things.
I mean this stuff is the legit the shit.
Its magical.
It always fixes everything when your sick.
I had an incredibly stuffed up nose last night andd after hours of blowing my poor little nose raw,
I had to find some relief, I needed a miricle to sleep and for heaven sakes breathe!
So I started searching for something, anything.
When suddenly, there it was to answer my call of distress and discomfort. The Vapor Rub!
I used it and instantly I started to feel better anddd I could breathe- best feeling being able to breathe when you sleep.
Vick's VaporRub is a must have in your bag of tricks and tools when your sick!

I <3 Vick's.

Boyfriend!!

So today at around 3 am something completely amazing happend. I got myself a boyfriend :D
Let me take you back a few weeks to were this all started...

I get this phone call from my twin sister Victoria who tells me that I should date this guy...
Well like any normal human being I replyed "ha ha haa okay there....."
But she says "no really".
This guy is her boyfriend of a million years friend and he (stephan sisters boyfriend) thinks it would be a perfect match.

Those of you who know me and know Torrie and Stephan know that any of there friends would NOT be my type of guy... not that I even know what my type was (untill I met this guy, then I knew.. it was him.. whatever type he was)

So Stephan and Torrie are reallllly trying to force this crazyness because stephan just knows this is gonna work. So I agree to meet him.
We go to the Hop n Brew for drinks and some pool when we see each other.. we never really looked at each other andddd we didnt talk like AT ALL. But I will admitt I found him extremely cute so that was always a good thing
Anyways so that was our first meet and greet.

Then I added him on facebook anddd like a jerk, every time I said hello he signed off like almost immediately... pffftttt,
Only later did he tell me he didnt realise he was doing that. sillllllly guy
Then Torrie and myself went to our aquasizing class anddd Stephan and the guy was there...neatt
We still didnt really talk, Ill admitt again -he was really cute and I was being a shy loser.
But the guy, Torrie and Stephan got this grand idea to take a little weekend trip to Edmonton... SWEET-never been to Edmonton.

And that was that. We had an amazingly, hilarious, fairly drunken, good ol' time!
Ill admitt once more, this guy was SO FUNNY and soo cute.
And since that weekend I saw him every single day and have had nothing but the best time ever.
Ive never been so happy!
Wondering who this amazing man is?
His name is Emri Pires

And now that we are an item I just have to thank Stephan for being a genious and just out of the blue putting us together - never thought I would call stephan a genious!
THANK YOU STEPHAN SEUPERSAD AND VICTORIA GRIMES - there brilliant people.
And thank you Emri for coming into my life. <3

I am no longer a damsel in distress. I found my knight in shinning armor,
I found my little piece of Happiness.
Now its time to blog about alllll this happiness. Stay tuned :D

The Never Ending Bowl of Rice

So last night a few people had come over and I made dinner.
I made rice, sweet chilli lime pork and salad.
My first mistake was the salad. I definately did not make enough for everyone but who gives a shit. Im the only one who likes salad anyways.
My second "mistake" was the crazyness that happend with the rice. -my meat was cooked perfectly by the way :)
Anyways about the rice. There was going to be 6 people dinning
soo for some reason me and my mother thought that meant making 6 cups of rice.......for those of you who dont know
6 cups of rice works out to be enough for 24 people......haaa..
So I put the 6 cups into my medium sized dish and put it in the microwave, when it was done.. there was rice over flowing this stupid bowl! AND once we were serving it.. its like it kept growing.. it was legit the never ending bowl of rice.
No matter how much anyone took, by the end of the night it didnt even look like anyone had taken any rice at all! What a wreck.
Either way though, was kinda good because tonight im making a stir fry with it. Oh welll.

Electronics

Anyone who knows me knows, I am no good when it comes to electronics.
My phones never last more then a year and a half.
My computers always crater 
And everything else just refuses to work properly for me. 
Like my oven for example, It blew up in my face for no apparent reason. Ya I was working so hard to make a delicious dinner in it.. and it beat me up because of it. Dick.
Yesterday my phone decided it didnt want to be with me any longer..it shut off and hasnt turned back on since. It basically said "fuck you"and that it was over me...what a way to break up...ass.hole
Now I am phoneless. I am also laptopless because yet again! (third time) my laptop has decided its going to be an idiot and drink to much therefore causing it to be slow, hyper and do random stupid things, have a drunken coma(aka not start for long time periods) and be extremely rude!
I dont know when Ill ever learn...sigh
I deserve better then these abusive, rude, drunken behaviour electronics.
One day I will get that night in shinning armour...
untill then though, Ill just suck it up cause lets face it, you cant get anywhere now a days without electronics. Its the way of the future.

Bad Drivers; GO DIE

I can not even believe what just happened to me on my little errand run to shoppers.
Give me a moment to collect and compose myself so I can handle this professionally...
FUCK IT!

Holy shit! In the mother effing parking lot at shoppers some stupid fucking bitch decides its okay to fucking drive like 90mph (exaggeration yes but not by much) beside us while we were stopped and going to fucking turn into our parking spot which she could CLEARLY SEE THATS WHAT WE WERE GOING TO DO!

She zooms right passed us almost hitting us.
IS SHE FUCKING SERIOUS! SHE COULD HAVE KILLED ME! WHAT IF I OPENED MY FUCKING DOOR?? HMMMMMMMM? WHAT IF WE TURNED OUR CAR JUST A LITTLE BIT MORE! SHE WOULD HAVE FUCKING SLAMMED INTO US!!!!!!!!!!!
And she didnt even fucking slow down one bit even after she realized what she fucking did. She turned her head around, yea, but kept driving at fucking 90mph!


Like???? god fucking damn! mother fucking effffff!!!!!!!!! 


....For those of you who arent aware, as it is I dont really like cars.. I mean I like them, they are cool.. but when im in them Im 90% of the time having heart attacks over and over again.. they scare me.
So when this stupid bitch decided to be a stupid bitch, you can imagine how I was taking the whole situation.... NOT FUCKING VERY WELL!


I HATE fucking stupid ass drivers who DO NOT  pay attention to ANYONE else around them, I hope this bitch crashes her car and magically decapitates herself!

Okay, Im good now. Im happy with myself.. :)

Can t Spel Wroth Shit...

So its been brought to my attention many, many...many times before that I can never seem to write anything without spelling something wrong....and its true! I cant!
Whether it be a card im writing or something im typing, even with spell check and me asking how to spell each and every word, I still manage to fuck up somehow!
I dont have any learning disabilities that I am aware of...and I dont really feel like finding out if I truly do have one... because then it becomes real. Set in stone. On record that I, Brittany Elizabeth Grimes, am an idiot.
Ya there is no way in hell I am giving my twin sister, her boy toy, and my little brother legit proof that I am a misfunctioning machine.
Luckily life goes on! And as life goes on I will continue to spell shit wrong and fuck up every single card I write in.
Good thing it doesnt bother me...:D

The Greatest Cookie On Earth, Cookie

The Kitchen Table Point of View

Alright so due to my circumstances I have not eaten at my kitchen table in 3 years.
However yesterday during my vegan challenge, It was the first time in 3 years that I got to eat three meals in one day at that kitchen table.
To most I probably sound a little bit insane, but when youve gone without something as minuscule as eating a proper meal at your kitchen table -it becomes a huge deal.
Things are finally feeling semi normal now. Because of this kitchen table I feel like things are finally getting under way to a better life.
Im relieved! I find myself feeling very calm and at peace -as much peace that you can have at this point.
Yes to you all it may just be your average, silly, not important kitchen table,
But to me its a symbol of hope that things will return to normal.

Healthy Junk Food

So my friend Ariffa is the best cook Ive ever known.
Anything she makes, its the bomb.
I got this recipe from her (http://sweetohmcooking.com/) who got it from another blog (http://ohsheglows.com/)

The Butter-nut Crusted Parsnip Fries -angels sing

*photo courtesy of sweetohmcooking*

All it is:

• 3 parsnips, peeled and cut into thin fry-like strips (can use carrots or sweet potatoes as well)

Then Toss together with:

• 3 tbsp Peanut butter
• 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• 1/4 tsp kosher salt -or as much as your taste buds desire

Simple right! yep.
Then you just throw 'em on a pan with parchment paper,
Stick 'em into a preheated oven at 400F,
Cook for 30-50 minutes -looking for crispiness
And voilà!

All thats left is to munch down and enjoy!
Seriously you will not be disappointed, If you love peanut butter and salt -youll die and go to heaven

Good Deeds

I feel so good about myself today.
On the way home from my first yoga class ever, I was sitting on the bus and this little old lady was trying to reach the thing to notify that her stop was coming up-she couldnt reach it!
So being the good samaritan I am, I reached up and did it for her :D
She seemed relieved. She smiled, thanked me and walked off.

Felt good to help someone else for without being asked or expected.
Pay it forward with random acts of kindness!

Sunrise

So this morning I woke up at 6:45 am -I was supposed to go to Edmonton but things didnt work out.
When I walked by my kitchen window and I saw the most beautiful shade of bright pink in the sky.
It was in this straight horizontal beam and the sky was this awesome blueish grey-black.
I stopped for a second and took a deep breath in and realised this was the most peaceful thing ive ever seen!
Ive seen sunsets before, but there was something about this sunrise that was just so quiet, blissfull. I didnt want to move, I wished it would have lasted forever.
As fast as it came, it went :(
It was then that I said I have to see this again, so hopefully I can get my butt out of bed that early the next few mornings-one to get a picture and two to start the day of calmly.
...maybe this will help my anger issues??!

Face Punched!

Let me start off by saying im in no way racist nor do I willingly hate on people.
But some things just get to me...

Today my friend sent me a message on Facebook telling me about her day.
Usually when she tells me stories about her day there really good!, but I was totally NOT expecting what she ended up telling me...

It started with her getting on the train to come home from her day at work.
Quietly reading her book and keeping to herself they pass Lions Park Station were two Native (sorry if thats politically incorrect) girls who obviously were intoxicated board the train -they were also smoking..on the train..mhm
As she passed Banff Trail, University, Brentwood stations, the smoking girl began to sing loud and proud, the girl across from her giggled innocently-just like anyone would.
When she got to Crowfoot Station got off and hurried to catch her bus. As she came out of the Crowfoot biulding someone was stepping on her heels -it was the Native girl
Right when she turned around to see who this person was, the Native girl PUNCHED HER IN THE FACE!
My friend stared at this girl registering clearly that she was very intoxicated and turned to walk away only to be punched again in the side of the head!
Now being the classy lady my friend is she knows this needs to come to and end so she turns to the Native girls friend and says" please control your friend, shes punching people in the face"
only to get this reply "she can do whatever she wants"-HOW RUDE
So my friend just walks away and heads to her bus only to have these two crazy girls follow her screaming at her things like...
"YOU WUNNA FUCKIN BRAWL SLUT? WHAT DO YOU GOT WHAT, YOU THINK YOUR HOT SHIT, COME FIGHT ME!!! IM GOING TO FUCKING STAB YOU BITCH! CUNT!"
.......... potty mouth -tisk tisk
So my friend just gets on her bus and calls the police to notify them that there are crazy girls punching people at Crowfoot Station.
She is my hero, shes to classy!

Honestly though, its situations like this were it makes racial stereotypes hard not to believe.

When the Light Leaves Your Eyes

Today I was taking some pictures and while looking through them I noticed that my eyes are not as bright and glowing like they used to be.. this is not okay with me.
My eyes are my best feature I believe and if they loose there spunk and amazing, glowing, bright, shinny blue-greenish-ness...I dont know what ill do.
Even without make-up they are still seaming to be dull... :(


I am hoping that its just a phase..like maybe they are in there teenage years and like most teenagers, they are getting as much sleep as possible.. right.
I have some hope that they will bounce back to match my bright and shinny new out look on life! :D

Boys Are Stupid

Is it just me or do men really NOT know how to talk to a lady?
Saying "whats up sexy" or "sup ma" is NOT ATTRACTIVE
Im mean really? You just look soo stupid.
The only time any man should say things like that to a women is if your dating them OR have already established that its okay...
And another thing, asking us every 30 seconds "what you wanna talk about" is a big no-no.
If you cant think of something yourself to talk about, dont say anything!
It shouldnt be up to us to figure out the whole conversation.
And if we reply "i dunno"..take the hint..usually means we are bored of you!

Guys common, if you really think that shit works fill me in as to why and how?!
Ladies, if your man is the oppsite of this, let me know there is hope for us single girls..sigh

Hello :)

Now that I am addicted to blogging I have decided to make an on-going blog about anything and everything.
I have a lot of opinions and I like to talk a lot so why not write it all out in a blog right?
That way if no one wants to read it, they dont have to and for all those who find me interesting, can!
I would also like to read other peoples opinions..only if they match mine :)
Kidding!... any opinion even those against mine are welcome to post them in my comments :)

I hope you all enjoy my life
