While most of you were enjoying one extra hour of sleep last night... I was suffering for 60 more minutes than normal while working this god-for-saken Night Audit shift! It had somehow completely slipped my mind that today was daylight savings... that is, until I arrived at work and read an email from my boss, which reminded me that I would be *gag* working a 9.5 hour shift rather than my

Nic, the emoticon that represents you best is the Devil Face (6) You little rascal. OK, so maybe trouble isn't your middle name, but we suspect you can be a bit mischievous at times. You're a playful person who enjoys stirring up a little trouble where you can. Don't worry, we won't tell.But we will tell you this: Playing pranks, testing people's naïveté, and fudging the truth a little can be

Nic, your OC crush is Marissa While she's not exactly the girl next door, she sure is a hottie. And you heard it here first: You and Marissa are a match made in OC heaven. Like your feisty and fiery crush, you've probably got a bit of a wild streak that sets you apart from the rest of snooty Newport Beach or anywhere else you happen to hang. An independent spirit, you're not one to follow in the

According to an online IQ test I completed yesterday, my IQ score = 127 My Intellectual Type is "Word Warrior". --> I have exceptional verbal skills. I can easily make sense of complex issues and take an unusually creative approach to solving problems. My strengths also make me a visionary. Even without trying I'm able to come up with lots of new and creative ideas. Hmmm... Sounds like me !

Today I was grocery shopping with my friend Sarah at Safeway... she was looking for soy-yogurt for smoothies that she was going to make later on. I was trying to help her find some, when all of a sudden out of the corner of my eye I spied a familiar looking carton sitting on the shelf to my left...

The Royal Canadian Legion, Branch 26, is a popular Thursday night hangout for locals in Banff. Why? It's bingo night! Every Thursday at 7:45pm Branch 26 fills up to the rafters with people of all ages, mostly youngsters, all eager to win a weeks worth of drinking money. I myself have attended scores of times and have a net winning of $165. Bingo cards sell for $1 each, but prices drop as low

In Banff when you hear tell that the "warden" is rounding up the "animals", don't expect to catch a glimpse of a Park Ranger riding on horseback with a lasso, but rather a cop patrolling the streets for drunk tourists. I only know this because I witnessed the "wardens" in full action last night during my shift at the hotel. Rather amusing actually... the "animals" put up quite a good chase

My eyes are so bloodshot that my once blue eyes have become purple! YUCK ! I am working aprox. 40 hrs/wk @ Joe's Diner and aprox. 42 hrs/wk @ Brewster's Mnt. Lodge. Not to mention that my 42 hrs @ Brewster are served between the 11pm and 7am. Oh well, the torturous +80 hrs/wk will soon be over, as Joe's shuts down annually from Oct.24 - Dec.15 as it is an extremely low season in Banff during that

Team Dreseris = Turkeybowl 2004 champs :( Apparently Team Veriker was easily defeated... even though Principal P. didn't count running back, Adam Leaning's, last touchdown. ;) According to a Team Dreseris spokesperson, "Beating the Verikers in football has now become an annual tradition... it's just too bad Nic wasn't there with his incredible fashion sense to help Mark & Adam pick out dresses.

Tomorrow I move into my new apt in Banff. I'm very excited, as many my colleagues, as well as young singles will be in the same block... should prove to bring fun times ahead. Speaking of which, after work this evening, I am heading over to the unit where the current tenant (who's leaving tomorrow) is throwing a going away/house warming party in both of our honours. I am looking forward to that

Having 4 years of serving & bartending experience behind my belt, I, at first felt a bit insulted by the fact that I was asked to be a bus boy, but the last 2 days have taught me that it's really not all that bad.

Extra extra... read all about it! Snowflake lands on boy's nose this morning in Banff! Crazy eh... well it happened! The snowflake in question was one of many that was making it's way from the cloudy skies above at approximately 8:10am MNT. I must say, the sight of the years first, and may I add..EARLY, snowfall made me a bit sad, as it doesn't seem like it was really that long ago that we said

Bomber was GREAT ! I didn't think that I missed Waterloo all that much... but boy was I wrong! Partying at Bomber on Wednesday brought back a wave of fond memories. It was great seeing everyone again. Especially those who I hadn't seen in 8 months or longer. Can't wait to book future Wednesday nights off, so I can make it back for more Bomber action!

It's humbling to think that Thanksgiving will soon be upon us, then the first snowfall, and not too long after, Santa will be arriving w/ packed bags & my plane ticket to Calgary.

The first two days back behind the bar were GREAT ! I'm loving it. It's fun to have the regulars 'belly up' and chit-chat about the day's/week's events. I'm not normally one for smalltalk, but somehow i'm into it at work. Went out for some eats w/ my friend Sierra & her daughter Junie this eve. Had a good time.

Today was a day of rest! & boy did I ever need one after coming off a 6 day bender! I was the best couch potato ever...I only left the house once to pick up a slurpee & slice of pizza. I spent the rest of my time napping, catching up on my fav. shows on TLC., watched a few episodes of QAF Season II on DVD which is on loan to me from a friend, and played a few rounds of Mario Kart. -later PS:.

Hump day: Wednesday's have quickly become by favourite day of the week. It's Karaoke night at Paddy's, and I am guaranteed to make some $$. We always get a huge crowd of 'underage' Americans, who get ridiculously wasted, spend way too much money and make asses of themselves. Gotta love those stupid Americans! My stepmom, Linda, flies in today. She's been in the Maritimes w/ my dad & mark

During my endless hours of surfing the net today, I decided that I would try and maintain my blog for what is left of the summer. I feel guilty that I haven't kept in close contact with my waterloo friends, and see this as possibly being a simpler answer than picking up the phone. Anyways... I hope in the days/weeks to come you may look to this site to see what it is that I have been keeping

Hope everyone is having as good of a weekend as I am. The weather right now is a bit overcast but warm nonetheless. I worked at Paddy's last night; got smoked! I'm not used to having a 16 table section all to myself. Made some serious good money though. ;) Not sure what's in store for tomorrow morning? Maybe a little brunch-y-poo w/ mommy. Then work again at 5pm. Things are running smooth &

POTTS! Last night Alyssa slept over for the 3rd night this week. !!YEOWZA!! I really don't mind having her over, but I HATE sharing my bed... I guess it's a good thing that I'm single. ;) --We didn't do much last night. Studied for a French exam, pigged out on junk food and rented Harry Potter: And the Chamber of Secrets. Magnificent!!!! I love that little guy sooo much ! Prolly not as

Ha ha ha !!!! I just remembered why Easter is always such a funny time of year for me... Every year my grandparents deliver personalized chocolate eggs to each of the 24 grandchildren. And EVERY year, me and my brothers stash them in my mothers china cabinet with the intention of saving them to ripen and eat them on a later date. Too bad every year we forget about them and don't remember until

Haven't logged on in while. Probably cause I have nothing to post that I'm proud of. I would however, like to mention that last night was a very fun. The magic began when I started pre-drinking at work Hahah. I always keep a bottle of zin handy for just that reason. For more details on the evening, please see Adam's Blog! I think he captured the moment nicely.

Last night was super fun ! It was the end of term party at Philthy McNasty's and Rajah was kind enough to score me a VIP pass, which entitled me to line bypass & free beer. Always a plus !!! Other fun things last night included: - Hanging out w/ Adam on a weeknight at a bar other than Ren. :) - Meeting Justin's new boyfriend. He's HOT! - Grinding with Dan and the other girlfriends - Licking

Can I please just say that Sunday night turned out to me one of the messiest nights of a lifetime !!!!! It all started at 8:50pm, I was already asleep in bed when my cellie rang. It was Chris, from Paddy's and was like.... COME TO PADDY'S NOW !!! So of course I hustled my ass over there. Turns out he only wanted a drinking partner. I told him about the unfortunate wallet incident (lost). Then

Through the grapevine, it was rumoured that the Duke of Wellington offered a very cheap & yummy breakfast on weekends. Momma and I decided to check it out this morning. Verdict: the spice was nice! During breakfast Erica recounted her tales from the evening before. She attended a party at the Boy's on Princess/Regina. The evening was apparently very fun.. so much in fact that things somehow

Why do I have the worst luck with cabs? And more importantly why do they always interfere with my drinking time. On Friday night I waited nearly an hour for cabs from two different companies. Though eventually I did make it to Adam's and joined in on the pre-drinking fun with Chris, Joel, David, Ryan, Paul and Mark, who's in Waterloo on vacation. We ended up at Ren., and had a really fun time

Well here we are; Thursday, March 27th 2003. The date itself is of no real importance, but yet it scares me. This day is circled in bright red on my desktop calendar, as the first day of one of the most dreaded countdowns of my lifetime. What most feared countdown? Answer: the countdown of my remaining days as a carefree "student" living away from his parents. Today is Day 35, tomorrow will be

I spent a lovely fin-de-semaine with Tara. I arrived in the T-dot just in time for dinner on Saturday. We went to her parent's house, where I was introduced to the whole Famn Damily, including grandma !!! Later we scooted over to her condo. It's actually her brother's, but she is roommating with him. They live pretty far out in Mississauga, and have a long ride into town, but it's honestly

I've been working a string of late nights at World Access.... Doesn't leave much room for a social life. but I suppose it keeps me from spending money. Today I skipped in to Paddy's for lunch to check out the new, rumoured 'cute', bartender. I'll have to say that I was disappointed at best. I am beginning to think that I will never find a boyfriend.

BLUE MOUNTAIN MAYHEM Yesterday morning, at the ungodly hour of 7:45am, I gathered in the back parking lot of Paddy Flaherty’s with 7 brave co-workers for the kick-off to what would become a maniacal trip to Blue Mountain. To ensure no one got lost, Chris handed out detailed instructions of how to get to Collingwood, then we quickly packed vehicles, split into two teams and headed out!

I got off work at about 8am, I was really sleepy from working all night, but don't recall seeing my shadow, which I imagine is a good indication that spring will b here in 4 weeks. SUPER !

A whole bunch of fun stuff has happened since 01/20 but I don't really care to go into great detail about it; Soo...Here are the higlights! :) Tara comes to Waterloo: we go to Phil's. Ryan Shaw leaves for Australia: we go to Phil's. Rajah, Darren & I board on BLUE: what an amazing day. Watch Superbowl @ Paddy's: then go to Phil's. Andrea and I drool excessively in the co. of hot Ian: at Phil's.

Favourite Movie Quote: "I'd like Frank Shirley, my boss, right here tonight. I want him brought from his happy holiday slumber over there on Melody Lane, with all the other rich people, and I want him brought right here with a big ribbon on his head. And, I want to look him straight in the eye and I want to tell him what a cheap, lying, no good, rotten, floor-flushing, low-life, snake-licking,

Alyssa, Alyssa, Alyssa!!!!!! I love that girl. For those who haven’t been acquainted, we used to live in res together, then again at 401-B along with Jenn, Sharon, Adam & Hillary. Over the past year, Alyssa has been living and going to school in France, but more recently spent 5 months in Australia not doing much of anything it seemed. Must have been nice. I missed her while she was away, but

Just got home... Went out for the usual 1/2 price panzarotti's with the "Tuesday night posse." Mel, her brother Christopher, Hot Ian and 2 of his friends, joined us. Retired back to Andrea's afterwards to watch tonight’s episode of 24, which we taped. **I would like to take a moment and say that this show somehow manages to continuously surpass all my expectations each and every Tuesday. I

I am a bit "grrr..." at Mel right now. She laid a leaky bottle of red wine on my favourite wool sweater, and well... you know the rest. It was totally an accident, but “grrr…” nonetheless. Question: Why did the wine insist on spilling only on the white part of my sweater, and totally avoid the part that is already red ???

:: WEEKEND 411 :: -> Went to Phil’s on Friday; Very messy. Chugged 1.5 litres of wine before going, and still managed to spend $60 while at the bar. SHAME! -> Was très hung-over Saturday. Rolled out of bed at 4pm, caught the bus to Toronto at 5pm. Met my aunt Ann (from Moncton) at her hotel room. Went out for a nice dinner with her, Mark & my dad. ->Woke up quasi early on Sunday. Mark & I enjoyed

Just wanted to post a little something about last night's excursion. Went to Toronto with Mel, Jess, Andrea, Dré, Nate & Kevbo. Saw the Tea Party perform at Massey Hall, part of the duMaurier Concert Series. Their Performance included full orchestra accompaniment, Soprano vocalist & circus acts. It was a spectacular event. Afterwards we headed to our favourite hangout, 7West, where Tara met

Is it wrong that I bought a small bag of Frito Hoops from the vending machine and devoured them while waiting for my popcorn to pop ???

This evening I am working the overnight shift at WAC. It is the first time that I have worked this shift, and I am a little wierded out by the fact that when I leave tomorrow morning to head home to bed, the steets will be a buzz with saturday morning earlybirds, doing what it is they do..(?) (if anything interesting happens while I'm here for the next 8 hours, I'll be sure to post it.)

Why is it that whenever you are in a rush to get someplace there are always factors working against you to slow you down ??? Today for example; I left the office on my dinner break in a mad dash, desperately wanting to get home to shower/wash my crazy Halloween make up off and make it back before my hour was up: During that short time 5!!! count'em FIVE times my plans were interrupted. (1) I

Hey, I'm not a Nerd, a Programmer or a gung-ho blogger.... I don't know how to use C++ or HTML, or JavaScript.... And I don’t know Jimmy, Sally or Morpheus from Cyberspace, although I'm certain their blogs are really really nice. I have a 486, not a Pentium. I work using dial-up, not High Speed. And I peck at the keyboard, not type. I can confidently express my feelings to others. I believe in

Today I made a new acquaintance. Her name is Michelle. Not really sure if I'll ever run into Michelle again, but we certainly exchanged many a good laugh rummaging up and down the aisle of the V.V Boutique. Here is our story: The purpose of this latest trip wasn't to search for that oh-so-scary Halloween costume, but rather that oh-so-tacky peach sequin dress. I was caught in my own little

TODAY IS A VERY *CAPS LOCK* DAY! NOT SURE IF IT HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH ALL THE FROZEN YOGURT I ATE, BUT SOMEHOW IT JUST FEELS RIGHT. FOR THOSE THAT ARE NOT IN-TUNE WITH WHAT HAS BEEN GOING ON WITH ME OVER THE PAST TWO MONTHS, YOU REALLY HAVE A LOT OF CATCHING UP TO DO... I'LL SPARE ALL THE MINOR DETAILS: (1) I HAVE MOVED OUT OF THE HOUSE THAT I WAS SHARING WITH MEL, BUT DIDN'T GO VERY FAR, I
