jump into my life - the life of a 19-year-old not-so-average teenage guy caught between toronto and saint john, striving for fame, fortune, and everything else.

reaching higher

hey,

so I have class in a bit, I won't write for long. (don't I just say that every time now?)

well, I can safely say this is one of the (if not the most) foolish week I have had thus far here at Ryerson. extremely ridonuclous... check my previous post to see what I had planned - I basically did all of it.

here are the highlights :

-Monday & Tuesday were academically ridonculous. Monday was my oral Spanish presentation, and then Tuesday was our project, "Everything You Always Wanted To Know," for our Information & Research class. Ash and I did post-traumstic stress disorder as a result of the war, specifically the second World War in the case of my grandfather, Paul Sisk, who served in this war. VERY interesting project, but lots of time and effort of course. Tuesday sucked ass, I was stuck in my room studying for my Communications Theory midterm while the weather outside was fog and rain. shitty day... I hated it.

-Wednesday I did a film shoot, did class, had my usual Wednesday date with Krystin, then went to work 4-9PM, which was pretty sweet, I always get put at the front of the store! obviously because I am sexy.

-Thursday ... FOOLISH. Studio meeting @ 11AM, which was disorganized as all hell. Then my audition for this RTA music show at noon - then studio 1-6PM, which was dramatic, because we just have group drama. Then Ash called, we went to dinner at the Green Onion, had some pretty weird Pad Thai, I didn't like that too much. But the vegetable rolls were good, and I stuffed my face with a macaroon from Timothy's after, SO DAMN GOOD.
then was the fashion show - the Spring/Summer 2007 Collection of "Hibebe," the new line by Salem Moussallam. pretty ridonculous show @ Maro last night! lots of Abercrombie homies & models, SO much fun - though my beautiful date left at a certain point, and she eventually got lost on the way (driving) home. :( but I did have so much fun - can't wait to get back into modelling, (knock on wood. that's next week.) I had to walk back from sketchy ghetto Chinatown, unfortunately. yiiikes.

-Today, well I got up at 8:15 and went off to High Park with Dean and Jenee for a huge run/walk, it was phenomeonal. well, soaking wet and tough at times, BUT SO WORTH IT. Jenee just walked, so Dean and I ran around all over the place, he's actually an ideal running buddy cause we have the exact same pace, which is pretty sweet and convenient. It was a great run, I am ready to take on the world!!!!!!!!!! YEAH... I have Spanish class in 5 minutes basically, and then tonight I work 4-9PM. WUUUTTT!!!

Tomorrow morning I am going to St. Lawrence Market & Value Village with Ash, and then I work 3-8. As for tonight/tomorrow night, not a clue.

OH. AND TWO WEEKS FROM TODAY- MINK NIGHTCLUB - MY 19TH BIRTHDAY BASH!!!!!!! (November 3rd.) BE THERE OR BE SO DAMN SQUARE. YEAH. (put yourself on the guestlist. I am so damn excited.)

Allright, here is a pic or two from a trip to High Park exactly a year ago, followed by the Friday Five.


Eh, I don't have time for the Friday Five. Sorry.

Leave comments! Happy fall! Enjoy october, best month of life!

The cereal fiend

P.S. Every time I work, I get bombarded with the store fragrance, 'Fierce.' I wanted to buy a bottle about 2 weeks ago, but now it haunts me in my sleep.

P.P.S. At the fashion show last night, Danielle and I were pretty lost. So, we called my friend who already at the show. Her, alongside the rest of the Abercrombie gang, tried their best to help me out. Here's what the conversation went like. (I am not using real names.)

Joel: 'Hey, Crystal! Danielle and I are driving on King Street, do you know how to get from there to the fashion show?'

Crystal: 'Yeah! It's on135 Liberty Street.'

Joel: 'No, we know that. But... How do you get there from King Street?'

Crystal: 'Oh, I don't know, we took a cab. Hold on, I'll get someone else.' (Momentary pause.)

Suzie: 'JOOOELLLL!! HEY!!!!'

Joel: 'Hey Suzie! What's up? We were just wondering if you knew how to get to the fashion show --'

Suzie: 'It's 135 Liberty Street.'

Joel: 'I know that! Haha, but how do you get there?'

(This process went on for 3 more people until I said, 'Thanks!' and hung up. Ohhhhh, Abercrombie.)

P.P.P.S. On Wednesday night, my friend Alyssa Luckhurst invited me down to her senior suite to do a fashion shoot with a giant fan. It was hot. If you have facebook, you should check it out. (I am drunk as I add this detail. Totally for you, Alyssa.)

Every time I read the word "ridonculous" I picture a donkey dressed as a clown honking.
