TODAY IS A GOOOD DAY!





















Woke up this morning smilling. Cashed in my big ROLL UP THE RIM winnings for a large 1/2 cappucino 1/2 coffee. Ran some hills. Gave myself a pedicure complete with pepermint foot cream, lemon cuticle cream and SEXY red polish. Made myself a new "Happy Playlist" to listen to at the library. It includes: Metric, Sarah Slean, Feist, Le Tigre, Alanis...Before Liz and me took our lunch break I checked my email and noticed U of T sent me an acceptance email. Soo that was pretty excitted. Now I have 2 choices! (which is bad b/c i am very indecisive)

PROS/CONS

- London is smaller & less scary than Toronto & seems easier to find an apt. London is cheaper.
- Toronto doesn't have any extra pre-requisitic courses that I have to take. I would get 1 month off for christmas, 6 weeks in the summer & 1 week for spring break (I don't know what Western offers for breaks). Both are about an hour from my family in Hamilton (i think??)

Any suggestions? Anyone ever been to Western or Toronto??

I need to decide this week.

a place called home.

There have been many places that i've called home in the past 22 years.
The first 18 years of my life were spent at 104 Chaisson Rd. in the white house at the end of the road that my dad built before my brother and I were born. I still go 'home' to visit.
Then there was CUTTEN HOUSE for 2 years of residence life. First in "alcohol free, 24 hour quiet, all girls" and second year with boys and alcohol :)















Followed by 2 summers at the water/prince corner shop! Joining bedrooms, slanted floors, ugly wall paper & carpet etc...it was soo much fun. Check it out!
Our gourmet bbq cookin & lovely bathroom...































Then the BIG move to off campus with Bryan...36 Catherine Court...
then 5B Westwood (which is probably the nicest apt i've lived in so far)















Next year....lil pdawg is off to ontario...can't wait to find a new place to call home!
