because everyone else is doing it...

so this is the amanda needs section. it has been done on my friends blogs where you go to google and type in "(your name) needs" and see what pops up. so here some of the stuff that i personally need... apparently

amanda needs a mom in her corner with a lot of time and attention to give her.
amanda needs needs the local food bank to put food on the table for herself.
amanda needs gnutar?
amanda needs needs to be rebuilt.
amanda needs to be loved.
amanda needs operator disk ownership.
amanda needs to suck on a pacifier to clear her ears.
amanda needs a small config change.
amanda needs a wise friend to tell her this too shall pass.

and the best by far...

amanda needs to be out in public, not acting slutty, so we can have more pictures of her.

but if i change it to manda needs, its equally as fun

manda needs a nap.
manda needs a girlie.
manda needs to come over to my swinging bachelor pad.
manda needs to write a story.
manda needs to give my shirt back.
manda needs to stay the ways she is coz she rocks.
manda needs to play more games and we shall save her.
manda needs to chill out coz she wrote on the wall too.
manda needs to eat healthier.
manda needs all the beauty sleep she can get.

and

manda needs a spidey outfit to go with that spidey web.


that was fun!

jen is the hero of today/tomorrow

a great round of applause goes to jen who reminded me that the clocks go back tonight! i would have shown up for work 1hr early.... bad really bad. thanks jen.

and on a side note, does anyone know how to make my life resemble something that would be even remotely close to being normal?

hey matthew i came good on the promise!

i spent the last weekend in toronto and as many of you know toronto is not always my favourite place to be. but it was a great trip. this time i didn't get into a car accident, in fact i didn't have any close calls really. so does that mean i'm becoming more accustomed to toronto driving or are torontonian's learning how to drive? i'm not really sure.

meals and i did a lot of shopping, tons in fact. i just want to say that mec is one of my favourite places ever! so lots of money blown and more importantly than that i got to hang with friend's i haven't seen in years. but i have a new favourite food.... shwarma's.... mmmmmm shwarma's. i think that it wasn't all about the food, it was the interesting conversations with people walking by. one guy was convinced that he had been rolling in a snowbank... and for those of you that think canada is always covered in snow its not... this guy was covered in grass and dirt and when questioned about it he calmly said "its ok it will melt." good times at the shwarma place.

i spent one night at moo's house and lets just say, it is sketchy when a driveway is between two houses and its not much wider than a van. but i saw a van backed down it... let me just say that's talent!

what's with being sick

i guess i really don't mind being sick... but if i'm going to be sick i would rather be really sick where i need to stay in bed and where there is a real excuse not to do anything. i've been sick since friday but not sick enough to stop doing anything, just sick enough to feel a bit crummy and to sound really gross. basically i think you should either do something right or not do it at all. so tomorrow if i'm still not better and i'm still not really sick then i'm going to go and play in the rain... maybe then i'll have a real excuse to do nothing.

for all the single girls cheer up!

somewhere there's a monument to the love that you haven't found yet, the love of your life and the shape of your future, dischargning ions into our skin through the dark. he is the span of the rainbow you see before waking. the first touch of air on your body each morning. the word that you say without speaking. the prayer that you made before life. he is the space of tomorrow.

the spill of conscience
the fill of desire
the spell of your name

he is the love you remembered at birth. the love you will make after dying. somewhere it waits for you, love that is not of this earth. where the sky ends. where memory pales. where eternity is. almost heaven

not leaving home until oct31

just so you know, i'm glued to my tv from here on in. i have the food network free for 28 more days, and i'm getting the most out of it!

pray for juan

so today is the perfect day to demonstrate my hiccup ability. not only are my chronic hiccups at their finest but, my day encountered a great hiccup itself.

first of all last week one of my great friends took juan, my car to his work and looked it over and fixed a couple things that needed to be fixed before warranty is over. thankyou mark!!! you're the greatest!

well today juan and i left school and headed for home, we got down to the main highway and stopped for a light. when the light turned green we stayed stopped. apparently juan had stalled. how embarrassing! he started up again and we made it all the way home, but i think juan is sick. he isn't functioning well. so please pray for juan.

on a sadder note, apparently something tragic has happened at the rez at school, my guess would be suicide. so please pray for everyone involved.

sorry again

i believe i promised a good post by the end of the weekend... and to my surprise...i forgot. so tonight i promise, when i'm procrastinating from cleaning my apartment and from studying for my tests this week i will write.... oh and i love being a pirate just so you know.
