Monday, June 30, 2003 so the comment thingy appears to have reappeared.. yay.. My exam went well on Saturday, it appears to have at least. I felt like I knew what was going on throughout and that's always a good thing. After my exam I drove on up to Edmonton to go out with some friends up there that I never get to see as they live in Edmonton. I really like that city, it's not as fast and snobby and oil-rich (although I'm sure it is) feeling as Calgary. It's also prettier, with many older buildings. People in Edmonton seem to be more entertaining as well, you can just sit there and watch them. Although I seem to think that about almost everywhere I travel to. It's as if when you don't live in a place you take the time to watch the people (and maybe even judge them) because you don't belong with them, you're not a part of them. Maybe not such a good thing. Anyhow, going to Edmonton always makes me happy, even when I only go there for 24 hours. posted by kim | 1:34 p.m.| (0) comments Saturday, June 28, 2003 ok I was just freaking out as I'd gone to see if anyone had taken advantage of the comment thingy and saw that IT WAS GONE!! But then I went to allie's blog and saw that her's was missing too and now figure there must be something wrong with it.. I should be studying I have an exam tomorrow posted by kim | 12:20 a.m.| (0) comments Thursday, June 26, 2003 I'm soo excited about this new blogger I'm going to post again today I took a little trip since my last post today, I went up to Brentwood to do some shopping on good ol' public transit. I've made this promise to myself to not use my car on days I don't work, unless it is completely insane to take transit (as in if I were going to say crowfoot or mckenzie or valley ridge or out of town, or if I have to cart my cat or something else as big and heavy and annoying around). Today I really didn't feel like taking the bus, I felt I had too much to do. So I just went on over to the good ol' adbusters site which makes me feel good and guilty for being such a bad consumer. So the outcome of this is that I've been taking transit more than I did when I had the U-Pass. Those U-pass negotiatiors were brilliant, not offering it for the spring/summer semesters. I hate taking transit in the winter, it's too f-ing cold and dark and evil and snowy. So I take it mostly in the summer. Anyhow, that is all. I really like how you can use your transfer for an hour and a half, I take full advantage of that, getting on and off all the time to do stuff. Anyhow, enough of me extoling the virtues of calgary transit, I'm going to go watch the news... posted by kim | 6:06 p.m.| (0) comments well now that I have that all figured out I can go back to random complaints.. So I went for dinner last night, with some friends. I have a real problem with public displays of affection, especially when you're a single person sitting having dinner with couples. If you want a fucking romantic dinner go out alone. And if you're with more then one couple it almost seems as if they start competing, or maybe not competing but trying to prove that they're in a more happy relationship. It's just rude. I enjoy the company of the people I went out with last night but have decided to not again, it's much too uncomfortable. As well, it's just not appropriate. As I said, if you want to kiss your partner at the dinner table go out for dinner alone, or make sure there's lots of people there.. anyhow, that was my rant. I have to study. I have a final in 2 days... posted by kim | 2:05 p.m.| (0) comments ha!! New Blogger helped me figure out the comments thing strictly because it lets me see the changes before they're officially chaged.. I can preview the template, if you will.. maybe you could do it on the old one who knows, I never figured it out posted by kim | 2:01 p.m.| (0) comments ooh am now on new blogger, must sit here and get aquainted with it.. woo hoo it's pretty. maybe I can figure out the comments thing now.... posted by kim | 1:50 p.m.| (0) comments Wednesday, June 11, 2003 somehow fucked up the code and now can't get rid of the < at the top... am trying to figure out where the hell it's coming from.. oh well, am going to bed, will deal with it tomorrow.. posted by kim | 2:24 a.m.| (0) comments it appears to not have worked.... who knows posted by kim | 2:04 a.m.| (0) comments am testing to see if the comments thingy that allie (see the summer's daydreams link, I can't remember what the hell it is) told me how to use....... posted by kim | 1:38 a.m.| (0) comments Tuesday, June 10, 2003 so I should get a comments thingy apparently... if only someone cooler and more knowledgeable than myself would tell me how, as I'm too lazy to figure it out.. anyhow, gotta go clean the apartment (note that it would normally be Murder she Wrote time except a&e, in a bid to ruin my late night rituals, I'm sure, decided to not have it on at 2 am anymore.. they didn't get rid of it completely like they did Law and Order, thank heavens, I don't know what I'd do without my Jessica Fletcher, but now it is often on before I wake up at noon... someone should write a letter. I think they replaced it with cold case files or city confidential or something lame ass like that... anyhow.. posted by kim | 2:06 a.m.| (0) comments Saturday, June 07, 2003 ha allie and duncan, 3 posts in one day, look at me go, I must be procrastinating. hahahahahahaha.. now I can go an entire month without!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! posted by kim | 1:14 a.m.| (0) comments just a quick note on the last poll for anyone who cares... 62.5% of you saw Canada as on the crossing guard patrol were the Iraqi conflict seen in terms of playground politics posted by kim | 1:13 a.m.| (0) comments "enlist the cat in the impending class-war" - "Confessions of a futon-revolutionist" - The Weakerthans so I got this cat. He's big and orange. After a few weeks I decided to name him Wiggam. After the Simpson's character. Cuz he's fat and annoying and thinks he's in charge - just like the cheif. But I still like having him around. I'm writing a paper right now, on the Weakerthans. It's barely a paper, more of an opinion piece. I have a really hard time with not having to research. I"m big on research. I did anyway, even though we didn't have to. Anyhow, I should get back to the paper. As fun as it is. It's to be a measly 5 pages, I have 4 already. I don't think I've completed any paragraphs yet, so I should be able to get to 5 no problem. I do know I have alot of blabbing on and on that I should proably get rid of so we'll see how things go, won't we. I'm tired today, I drank too much last night. Not too much I was puking and making out with strange boys, but I didn't feel so hot this morning. I think it was the red wine/beer combo. not the swiftest plan. That and I didn't get my gatorade before going to bed and my gatorade in the morning - an integral part of me avoiding the hangover. Anyhow, so I'm tired. ok back to the paper... why do I always blog while writing papers...... oh ya cuz I'm a slacker posted by kim | 1:08 a.m.| (0) comments |
