Adam's Project is Finished!

So yesterday was the day of Adam's project presentation. I think it went pretty well except for Sean's part (that was pretty brutal). We headed over to Boston pizza afterwards then went to The Globe @ 7 for the CST grad party. I made Adam stay in his penguin suit the whole time cause he looked nice in it. ^_^

We ended up being 15 minutes late to The Globe due to sucky Edmonton bussing, but oddly enough, no one else was there except for Kyle. He was the only other person there that I had met before, cause Sam and Sean didn't come at all. People starting showing up later and there was a lot of constantly moving around to different tables.

I had some potato skins there. They were GREAT! I need to have potato skins more often.

We ended up leaving early cause I guess it wasn't so great of a party as Adam hoped it would be. He also said he had "things to do"??!? O_o

We watched some IT Crowd and cuddled a lot. It was a good night. ^_^

Hopefully, he might already have a job... so horray!

Also, we got Matthew and Serena to play some more Guitar Hero. They're starting to get the hang of it now! Soon they'll be better than me. :(

Ouchie.

I had to get a needle yesterday. It huuuuurt!

I guess mumps has been going around, so everyone was encouraged to get immunized. There were notes in our boxes and posters everywhere. I really didn't want to go, as I had nightmares about it the night before. I'm terrified of needles, and of course, being all tense only makes it hurt more. I ended up being dragged down with Ceima and Amanda, so at least I wasn't alone. The worst part was being told to wiggle my fingers as the needle was jabbed into me. My arm was sore for s few hours after that, but I'm fine now.

At least I won't have to worry about getting measles, mumps or rubella anytime soon.

NAIT's on Fire!

Well, not anymore...

In the first half of my English class, we heard the alarm and thought it was just another silly fire drill. We head outside and complain about standing in the cold for forever when there's not even a real fire.

Then we hear the firetrucks coming.

A little while later, we're allowed to head inside to the nearest hallway, but we're not allowed to leave that hallway to enter the E-wing. Probably cause the E-wing smelled like burning. After some standing around, we (me, Steven, Nicki, Alex, Sheldon and Reba) headed over to the HP centre, where I took some pictures on the pedway.

After that, we headed to the South Lobby to see if we could back to our lockers. No such luck, but there were people playing Guitar Hero. Pretty soon, Ceima and Jesse and Alex find us and tell us we need to go to the gym. George is at the gym and he tells us afternoon classes (except the field trip) are cancelled. i didn't HAVE afternoon classes, so it didn't really affect me.:/

Someone opened the door to tell us that it would be another half hour to an hour before we could go back to the E-wing. Me and Steven head off to get some food in the Common Market and run into Rosalee, Daina and Dolly. They were able to sneak back downstairs to grab their stuff, but by the time we went to where they went, it was blocked off by another teacher.:/ We strolled around the sports area for a while until we were finally let back in E-wing. I grabbed my coat and keys and headed home.

I was supposed to get out of school at 10:10 this morning. I didn't end up getting home till 2:00.:( Oh well...

Apparently, the fire was caused by a small torch in the denturist section on the second floor. Not a lot of flames, but tons of smoke and water damage, leading to about $100,000 in damage. I was actually sitting next to some of the dental students on the bus, and one was saying, "I wonder if we can just have smoke-flavoured dentures?"

Anyhoo, here's some pictures I took:

More Halloween Pictures

I stayed in and watched Evil Dead II last night. We got about 30 Halloweeners.

I saw very few people at school dressed up, and since I was a pirate, people kept yelling, "Arr!" "Harr!" and "Yarr!" at me.

Here's some pictures of my costume, decorations and the vampire stakes and silver bullets I made.











Also, the drama club finally has a couple people willing to help out with filming and editing, as well as another female actress. They seems like pretty cool people.:)

Drama Club

After filling out a survey about potential clubs, I got an email about the Drama Club having their first meeting on Wednesday at 5:00. Since I didn't know if any other clubs in my interest range would start up, I decided to check out the meeting.

A whole 4 people(including me) showed up. One other girl and two guys.

Surprisingly small, but I actually hope it doesn't get much bigger, since I'm more comfortable in smaller groups. It would also enable us to do some group writing for some awesome comedy sketches.:)

Guess I'll also be making posters for the club, since I'm the only one with Photoshop skills. Horray!

Settling in.

Haven't posted in a while, but I've been fairly busy with school and stuff.

NAIT is really cool. I've started getting used to the bussing and school schedule and the layout of the place. The comic shop and my singing studio are only about a 15 to 20 minute walk away.:) The sucky thing is that I still don't have heat or hot water. Thank god the girl's locker room is in the same hallway as my classroom. Hot showers are a luxury.

Hopefully, today is the day that I get a brand spanking new iMac and iPod Nano. We'll see...

NAIT Welcome Week

So Monday was the start of NAIT'S Welcome Week.

First off, there was an ice breaking thing in the gym where I got to briefly meet some people. One girl who I became friendly with, Andrea, noticed my henna tattoo and that became the starting point of our conversation. I REALLY need to get myself a henna kit, especially if it helps make new friends.:)

After the ice breaking thing, we were put in groups and were taken on a tour of the main campus. It looks like a really great campus and there are lot's of places to eat and study. There's a coffee shop, a Mr. Sub, a Pizza Hut, a Common Market, and even a campus bar, The Nest, located next to the swimming pool. It'll be free to go to the pool, so I think I might end up going there quite often.

When the tour was finished, we headed over to the Shaw theatre for a comedian presentation about managing finances. I ended up getting 5 bucks for being "the smallest freshman."B)

After that, there was a free hypnotist show at The Nest with Damian the hypnotist. It was pretty fun. I was laughing so hard I was crying.

The next day, I went in early for the free pancake breakfast and registration. As we were having breakfast, some French guy asked us to sit at his table and we talked alot about politics, since he said he was going to be a polititan. Very friendly though. The registration went quickly so we were out of there pretty soon.

Afterwards, we went to Surf's Up! at a cheap theatre. The movie was really great. The only downside was that a daycare brought 196 kids to it and completely filled it up. My dad, who was late(as usual) couldn't get in to see it with us.:/

Anyhoo, it's been a very exciting week so far.:)
