how funny, the only quiet nights I have are Fridays.

YES, YES, YES.

I GOT MY DIGITAL CAMERA BACK!

THIS IS ONLY THE BEGINNING.

Hoooooooooooly God, wow, this is phenomeonal.

OK, so I've not updated in one week... So sue me. I've been having way, way, way too much fun.

It's actually grad week for the Class of 2006, oh man. And I feel bizarre. I was always the one who was "so young," and now I'm kind of not. However, I am now going into my second year of university, live in Toronto most of the time, have appeared on National television, have had a modelling contract, annnnnnnd OK I'm going to stop there, I'm satisfied.

so right! this past week, good times. Tuesday night was the St. Mach's prom, I got home early and came over to see everyone, they were such sexy beasts. hoooly shit. Speaking of sexy beasts = the after-party in Musquash was phenomeonally fun. it was in a sand pit in Musquash - sooooooooooooo fantastic. like, so fantastic, 99% of the time anyway.

Wednesday was Ben's 2nd-grade play, hilarious, and this was followed by Fat Kids 3.0: Summer Begins. (It was the first day of summer!) Excellent times there as well, such as climbing dark mountains in the dark, swimming in Hampton under a bridge, walking in the sun, tanning on the roof, watching "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind," and eating to unhealthy degrees. Did I mention driving around in a trunk?

And last night was Maria's fancy pants grad party, highly enjoyable - especially frisbee in the fog. Good times.

and so without further ado, as always on a Friday, my Friday Five - aka, what you live for.

/F/F/

1. What is the one outfit/piece of clothing/accessory you own that makes you feel incredibly good whenever you wear it? Why?

Probably my AE hoodie. It's just so chill, and it makes me look good, and I can wear it whenever. I've had quite a few good times in that hoodie, i.e. my prom party, walking in the INP, or even this past Tuesday's St. Mach's prom party. HOORAY!

2. What do you do to make yourself feel better when you're in a funk?

A funk? Who wrote this Friday Five, James Brown? [...] Anyway, the answer is that I slit my wrists while listening to 'City and Color.' (That always works best.)

3. Has anyone ever surprised you in a way that let you know you were special? How?

When my homies (namely Meghan) made me a car-cake when I left for Toronto last August. <3.

4. When you are having a "good day," how do you spread the happiness to others?

I'm just pleasant to people and make sure they know I'm happy. And tell them things - and just be around me when I'm in a good mood, which is most of the time, you'll see.

5. What is one thing that puts you in a bad mood, no matter how good you were previously feeling?

Ignorant people.
