zane

WARNING: this is most likely going to be a very random entry.

i've noticed something... i have A LOT of friends who's name ends in an "a". i'd say at least half, if not 75%.

does anyone else find it ironic that i'm going all the way to kenya, and the hardest part of the journey is finding a ride to toronto? weird.

i got my new driver's licence in the mail today. its the first time my very own address has appeared on my ID and not my mom's address. i feel like a grownup. i hope my new healthcard arrives soon.

inspite all your best intentions, you still make me feel crappy. i hope that makes YOU feel crappy.

i slept really well last night, had lots of heavy blankets. i got into bed at 10:08. my dad called twice and woke me up. i didn't answer the phone.

i love that buddy still has the smallest handwriting i've ever seen.

who is "kinja"? please identify yourself.

i saw my problem in the red t-shirt at the Y tonight. except now he doesn't wear a red t-shirt and he's not a problem. he still makes me blush by simply walking past me. how embarrassing.

sometimes living alone isn't good for my mental health. i need someone to break up the monotony. in times like this i miss unexpected outings, or cups of tea, or simply listening to someone elses problems. my own problems get blown out of proportion without anything to compare them to.

ok, now for something little more meaty.... i've been thinking lately, reflecting if you will. and have concluded that most things that really mattered to me at one point, don't matter anymore. it scares me a little. it makes me feel like nothing really matters. but i KNOW that's not true, but i can't prove it to myself. i don't know, maybe they do still matter but are no longer relevant. is that possible? that's a better thought, more comforting.

i'm feeling borderline mental. it'll pass.

i like our random emails. i like that no one knows who i'm talking to except for you.

i have to wear a moneybelt in kenya underneathe my clothes because people will pick my pockets.

i've gone off soup. i have zero interest in eating it which is a shame since its so cheap. i'm looking forward to pomegranate season.

i crossed paths with a snake in the hallway at work today. frank and i got a box and took it outside. he was little but feisty.

i need a distraction. pronto.

you sat right beside me while everyone stared.

this post is so quintessentially lesley.

i feel like we did just sit down and have a cup of tea and dye my hair purple and your hair redd and chat about everything and nothing. i like how we just spill, we don't wait for the questions.

love you girlz...

btw: my brain feels better.
nothing like seeing a los-a on the way to work to make you feel perky.

There's a pomegranate season?

rab said...

I might have a lead on someone who could take you to T.O. What time do you have to be at the airport?

yelsel said...

pomegranate season is about oct-jan. yay!

my flight is a 6, so i have to be there at 3. so i'd have to leave kingston around 12 or 11:30. i can take the bus home, a drive would be massively appreciated!!

work yourself some extra time in there.... an extra hour means you can have a leisurely drink somewhere instead of rushing. esp. since you're driving so far... allow lots of extra time for traffic - it is a holiday and you're going through the middle of TO.!

you have a good point. i was trying to tone down the fact that it'll be the morning because i didn't want to dissuade people. but alas you're right.
