colette79:
You look mad familiar. Did you go to BU or something?
colette79:
I was a B.Mus student. I have a degree in violin performance.

I'd love to try and make it to Ragpickers, but I'm already booked to attend a friend's show at Hooligan's tonight. Keep posting your showtimes in the Canada West group, though, I might be able to check out your band another time! smile

Gogol Bordello was totally insane! And their violinist was cool!

Wow. yeah. I've finally settled down in Winnipeg, I think. Almost forgot about this suicide girls thing.. which is dumb, because I'm paying how much per month?
You might say there's more to do in Winnipeg than northwestern Ontario... For instance, I just started playing drums with a couple bands here:
The Horribly Awfuls
and
Fisher Kane
Both bands play some really good stuff, so...

OK, um yah... Time to update, because having that month-old entry up just seems silly.
Does this bug anyone else: The font in this little window that I'm typing.. It's so darned small! And the letters are all smushed together! No wonder I don't update!
I'm expecting a shipment of socks from Sock-Dreams sometime soon... gonna check the post office to see if they're in smile

Also got some Tanya Donelly stuff from Beestung.com.. Very cool as well.. There's a couple really good live recordings on that site.

Well, I've decided to go for my amateur radio license. Any Canadian hams out there? Hahaha, probably not on Suicide Girls! Still looking for a good reference book.
Getting pretty good at Morse code, though! smile

No, damnit. You can't drink all my booze.

Roommate: Do you mind if I have one of your drinks?
Me: Well, you drank the last of my coke... Do you mean the Smirnoffs?
RM: Yeah
Me: No, man. Those are mine.
Ugh, this guy owes me this month's rent, and $50 bucks I lent him. He makes like twice as much as me, too... If...

I'm not sure what kind of lights I'm going to use yet. I was going to lige the inside with one standard 25 watt bulb and hopefully run strings of those blue/purple mini christmas lights down the legs, but I'd be happy to have your input!
kingbugs:
Hey, those look something like our Black Squirrels, but bigger. I'd have to get a little saddle and cowboy hat for my cat.
I'll try and get a comparative photo of the Kent Squill clan, which, I have just found out, were imported from London Ontario. They actually have a black squirrel festival here.
go figure.

Really, that's the only part of my life that's entertaining enough to share smile

Iron waffle... I mean Waffle Iron.
Knitting supplies.

I chose moldmaking. I just finished a video class last semester and my computer crashed the day of my critique and I lost my edited project. It caused lots of stress and I reshot/edited over break. I need a break from machinery. I figure it's easier to find a film class at another school after I graduate.

So what made your new years such a waste, if you don't mind my asking?
missprint:
Funny, some guy drove 5 hours to hang out with one of my friends on NYE and she was complaing about having a headache all night and pretty much just lay around half asleep on the sofa. Poor guy.

Ooh. Part of the reason I took the class is because I wanna make toys and crazy organic forms that light up. I am so in love with this. Then again I love anything squirrel related.

Expiring Milkathon Day!
I just realized I've got 2 litres of milk sitting in the fridge, and if I don't drink it all by midnight, it will explode!

candice:
Get drinking. Does a body good biggrin

All the pics I posted in my journal Dec. 7 I found at Satans Laundromat.

I'm not a photographer but I love photography and I enjoy pics of crazy and weird stuff.

When I'm thinking about what to put up in my journal, I usually examine the way I feel at that given moment and type in a word or simple phrase for a google search of images.

Sometimes the pics I find trigger some other thought or mood and it leads me somewhere different from where I started out. Sometimes whatever comments I post along with the pics have nothing to do with the pics, and then when I read it later it seems like the mind makes a connection between the words and the image and it gives it all a different meaning.

Lately, I've had a thing for abandoned buildings...
Links to sites with photos of modern ruins.

Any time I'm down in the dumps, I do something so goofily stupid that I can't help but laugh, and remember that life isn't meant to taken so seriously. bok
Sockbaby is always good for a laugh.
