After a long week at school (with 2 papers, a midterm, and an outline for a 12 page paper due), Friday night Mike, Graeme, Stuart, and I went to the Art Matters opening show, a festival that is put on by the Concordia Fine Arts students... The party was in a really nice venue - a pool somewhere east of here, with weather balloons blown up to look like planets. Everyone was in the pool dancing...TO THE CRAPIEST MUSIC. At one point they played an acoustic version of Wonderwall. Graeme and Mike said it was kinda like frosh week. Guess I wouldn't know.
Anyway. My friend Shaun did the posters and t-shirts for the festival. You should go to the site and see his drawings. They're GREAT.
Last night a bunch of my friends came over and Graeme made the best soup I've ever tasted, and we all got really drunk. Well, maybe most people just got drunk, but I got really drunk. And by 12 I wanted to go to bed.
Maybe I'll post the recipe cause it was so good and you should make it.
Imma NERD.
Here is a beautiful picture of my Nanny when she was young. I drank sherry last night. It is what my family always drinks and I've gotten used it. Sometimes I even crave it. When we came home from the hospital when my Grampy was sick, Nanny had two bottles of sherry waiting for us in the fridge.
COWABUNGA!

Oh wow! A video? That's great. Do you need a projector for it? That would be so nice to see.
When I was home to see my Grampy, me and Kris went through all of my parents albums and chose a few to bring home and scan on the computer at school. It took a long time to scan all of them cause the scanner is so slow at school but it so nice to have them.
