"It's icky... like plums or dentist appointments."

Okay so I was potentially trying to think of an excuse as to why I haven't written on here in so long and well, no excuse is going to do the trick...so I give up.

Basically, life hasn't changed. Each day is zipping by and I seem to be standing still. I don't know, it's a weird feeling really. In 10 days I will be turning 19...another year older. I can remember clearly my 18th birthday and I'm sure I'm going to be saying this every year until I turn 85 and essentially forget just about everything. It's crazy how time goes by so fast. I don't understand how it does.

On the other completely contradictory side, I hope summer comes fast. I am anxiously waiting to finish this semester and get the summer routine started. Although not much more interesting than my everyday routine, I can't wait for my bank account to fill up, get a potential tan (or sun burn, whichever comes first), see friends and go on vacation. I have no idea where I will be dragging my family this year, but I know that I won't be spending my two weeks off at home, doing nothing. Home is a comfy place to be, but I wanna see and be a part of different surroundings. It is for that reason that I can't wait to go back to Europe. There are so many places that I want to see (to name a few: Ireland, Switzerland, Spain and Greece (especially Santorini)) that I cannot wait to get my butt out of this country.

I'm so happy that I have split my ING account into two sections, both equally important: University and Travelling. I know that I am going to need both accounts a lot in the near future. All my summer money is heading right there.

As for right now, I think I am going to go and watch some Sex in the City. I am officially addicted. I don't think that this addiction will surpass my Will & Grace drug, but it's definitely entertaining...*cough*unlike Panic!'s new cd*cough* Ugh. I think I ranted enough about that with Mel.

Anyway...back to school tomorrow. Gotta remember to set my alarm clock for 6:30am..Just perfect.

Lots of love,
From: Miranda
(For all you Sex In The City lovers)

P.S. Note to Self: Consider joining a gym. I'm going to have to start wearing a parachute soon.

My Better 1/4s

Yesterday I spent the night with my favorite people. It never fails to amaze me how even after a night of doing nothing but relaxing, talking, eating (hahaha) and laughing I can feel so... rejuvenated. I know that that sounds very "maybe she's born with it, maybe it's Maybelline" but it's true- my friends are like a breath of fresh air. It's great knowing that I can go to them for anything really and they won't turn me away or judge me for it, what a great feeling.

I wish I told them how much I appreciate them more often, they really need to hear it. If they only knew...<3

I really had a great night.
And now... homework summons me.

The Circle of Life

From the day we arrive on the planet
And, blinking, step into the sun
There's more to see than can ever be seen
More to do than can ever be done
There's far too much to take in here
More to find than can ever be found
But the sun rolling high
Through the sapphire sky
Keeps great and small on the endless round
It's the Circle of Life
And it moves us all
Through despair and hope
Through faith and love
Till we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the Circle...The Circle of Life

I'll never forget you Pappou. xo

This is for every girl and boy who lost their joy, they let it slip away.

The Hedley concert last night was amazing!
Besides the fact that I got serious frost bite on my toes before getting into Le National, and now I have developped the hearing of an 85 year old- it was fantastic!

They put on a great show too. OMG! Jacob came out in a superman costume during Hand Grenade, I love him for his craziness.

I loved all the songs but I think my favorite was For The Nights I Can't Remember.

Wow, what a great night. I posted the best of my pictures on Facebook and I made a video with all the videos I took during the night.

One Visa Payment At A Time

I'M GOING TO NEW YORK!
I am so excited! Not only am I going to 'The Big Apple' I get to go with my best friends, it's going to amazing.

I cannot wait!
Oh mon dieu.

Le panier le moin cher...et le plus stressant!

Yesterday was probably the worst day at work ever!

- I was called in 3 hours early (started at 12:30 instead of 3:30)
- I took one 15 minute break, no supper and no second break
- I was the only supervisor on the floor from 4:30-10, meaning I had to close by myself on a Saturday

It was hell.
And to top it off, it was so BUSY! We had 9 cashes open the whole day and there were like 5 customers in line at each cash.

Anyway, I have to go to work... 5 hours of sleep later.
It's 6:15am, and it's still dark outside. It's almost like I never left the place.

Have a good day (to who ever is reading)

Fatty No More

I'm tired of being chubby and hiding behind layers of clothes.
I have love handles damnit! I'm going to change that.

I've decided that it's time for me to start eating better and to get some exercise instead of lazing on my butt all day. I'm putting myself to the test this week to see how a change of diet can affect weight loss. I am keeping a log of my daily calorie consumption and at the end of the week I'll weight myself again.

I need change.

The other night, I bought a box of Crest Whitestrips from work. I always smile, so I thought that it would be a good idea to pretty-up my sourire.

I'm not backing down this time like I did last year. Last year I made new year's resolutions and I didn't stick by any of them. This year I've decided that I'm not going to do things because they are on a list, but instead because I need to. I'll keep you updated on my progress...
