24/03/04(1150pm)- my hero is laura saba. congratulations on becoming news editor on the tribune next year. i know youll kick ass. speaking of the tribune, we are not publication of the year, the one by hindu students association is (slight bias). but thats okay because my roommate is not president of the year, nor was his faculty even nominated for faculty of the year. imagine that....

23/03/04(515pm)- well with the exception of a test thursday and a test friday, and a 14 page polisci paper due next tuesday, the week from hell is over. ive had 2 hours of sleep last night and 4 hours the night before. and so ill have to get into this weekend and red and white and edboard shit and bullshit and goings on with girls and all that, and stalker girl. and other wannabe-stalker girl and girls who block and all that other horse hooey. im gonnna see about taking a nap or so. my second wind is starting to wear off.

21/03/04(930am)- id also like to wish lauren a belated happy birthday (friday). ive been mad busy this past week and even busier perhaps this week.
Which Family Guy character are you?
i sat for 3 days of interviews. 10 apps for a&e alone. plus 7 news, plus 2 sports, 2 features, 2 copy, 1 photo... that makes 24 interviews i sat in on. but atleast i guess i know what its like to be the one actually giving the interview. whats going to be harder is deciding just who to pick. congrats to nat on getting ed-in-chief, and katie and james for getting assoc ed-in-chief. good job, i know that the paper will be great with you guys heading it up. so basically that was that. lilly came in friday evening and last night we all went to red and white. its been interesting having her, i hadnt seen her since we met at usy encampment 4 1/2 years ago. we keep in touch online on a regular basis, but its definitely interesting to see how you and someone else change from what you were so many years ago. red and white was fun and then we all ended the night at rubens. hopefully ill have pictures to scan soon. ya. ps, i went for x-rays, it was just the acid reflux, so the doc's putting me back on some longer termed nexium. im tired, long night last night, im going back to sleep.
p.s., laura, no heart attacks please.

15/03/04(750pm)- bilingual jewish canadian habs fan stalker. *sigh*
i said i was going to do an update but i dont have much time. in fact, the next two weeks are going to be jam packed: trib interviews/selections, red & white, french lit exam, french presentation, other french lit exam, polisci paper, job apps, etc... jam jam packed. so ill use this to say not to expect too much in the way of updates over the next two weeks. and if im updating, its probably because im procrastinating :-P

12/03/04(1055am)- its been a while. things i need to make note of: sunday at the office, chantelle coming over and playing mariokart, french lit exam oral retake, portfolioing my work, rollerblading with david, last nights stefie shock concert. and the stresses of next week (edboard decisions, red and white, a french presentation due the following week, a polisci paper due the following week as well, and the general stress of getting myself a job next year). one of the things about not updating for a while is that i tend to forget stuff. except things which i cant forget or the things that have seemingly ended. its like grade 12 all over again... :-/
"Apocalypse now"
I've seen the stars through deathly skies
And the peering of your leery eyes
The moon gets big as it swells in size
While my heart is lacking, you devise
The schemes and scams of galaxy's fate
As you lure me in with my jealousy bait
While time freezes for you, but makes me wait
Twinkling shine through ecstasy elates
When the tides have rolled in and Mars is at war
But the beauty of Venus slams me to the ocean floor
The solar flares leaving me wanting you more
With my soul driven deep, in to the Earth's core
As seismology quakes and astronomers gaze
The destruction of cities at the End of Days
And we look to the stars through the shadows and haze
To bury the past on the love we shall raise

07/03/04(145am)- escapism... to be continued. to wrap up, a menial friday and a lame saturday, topped up with a purim outing at the tap room (by st. denis and rachel) where it was like me and lauren and the seth and andrea, david and rachel show. of course its times like that where it just reminds easily whats wrong with my life and the things i cant control. no girl, no money, no job, the future looks bleak... i dont know where i want to be right now. crawling into a hole seems like a good one, but i think im already there, wanting to crawl out. i wish more things in life were more easier to control. and as much as i think i have monophobia, i think i fear uncertainties just as much. how do things that are in your control fall out of that grasp? and if the falling continues, how do you make it stop? i know ill never have all the answers to all the questions, but sometimes just sometimes, i wish i had more of the answers to more of the questions...
Heartache is a voice that pours through your ears
A truth so pure and untainted
Sweetness in your voice I could listen to for hours on end
If only you had the right words to open the lock
Tactile overload looks me straight in the twinkle
Gleaming pools of blue shimmering
There was a way to set it all free again
Walking down the path of unknowns
You float down the river like the moon floats the horizon
Peer out from behind this veil of mystery
That encapsulates our lives
There was a way to taste it all again
Flesh pressed against flesh, lips parted so slightly
It never left us, the fire never died
We grew stronger together from sparks
No, it never died
For there was a way

05/03/04(145am)- well, i guess after 7 months, it was all a mirage. the dream never dies, the hope never ceases, but it has otherwise been an illusion. kinda like whats coming up next careerwise... internship applications to work on this weekend. who knows where i will be in months' time: frisco? boston? nyc? dc? maybe i am at that part of life again, the part where im on the cusp of complete and total change in life. like four years ago at this time. its ironic that four years ago, my situation in life both with her and uncertainties in general were the same as they are now. maybe canned introspection should return. laura linked to my site because of my last entry on escapism. maybe tomorrow i should work on developing an actual ideology behind that.
i wish the girl shit worked itself out. i wish i wasnt a fool, i wish i never did stupid things. but to love is to err and to err is to be human. maybe just maybe, one day, one of them or any of them will come around. ive already come around. if only the other girls would...

02/03/04(1245pm)- yesterday was a pretty shitty day. couldnt have started off the week back from break any better. first there was the whole, waking up barely in time for my french lit exam. rollerbladed to class, which was okay but i got into the exam and all of a sudden i got massive heartburn. it only felt like that once before last month. so i was in excruciating chest pain all exam and felt like puking at one point. so with that as my luck, i couldnt concentrate a word on my exam and i just wanted to run out. i handed in the work i did but it was pretty shitty since i couldnt think. so i then went to the office but there werent any sets out so i went to health services right away. after waiting about an hour or so, i was finally seen and it turned out that i had gastric reflux (luckily it wasnt something more severe). he prescribed some nexium, which i got filled, and then felt shitty for some more hours. by that time, it was back to the office and time to read sets and clear out the outlook account. had our writers meeting, had our edboard, then read sets more. youd think that after 10 days break, the weirdness would dissipate, but for some reason it was like everyone left here but me, they came back and i was just annoyed with everyone. did some more work, went to bed on the earlier side, woke up on the early side. that was about it. french class this morning, boring european politics, now im here in seth's office escaping. i think theres a topic i should write about. or laura should write about. escapism. is there some such ideology? maybe i should create the ideology. then i would have a wikipedia entry on being the founder of Escapist philosophy. anyways, up next is a docs appointment followed by who knows. im supposed to be making chili tonight. i think. yeah....

29/02/04(315pm)- no need to go into the office today. good call. by the way, i was almost falling asleep on my bed when i heard the start of franz ferdinand's video for "take me out" on musiqueplus. between that and the new full window promo poster in hmv, ive predicted something big this side of the atlantic, for the record. if only that fucking show wasnt sold out, id wiN?

(1150am)- its a leap day. huzzah. since production date is actually tuesday this week, im trying to figure out if i need to be into the office to read sets today or tomorrow. i suppose theres no harm in both? anyways, yesterday was one of the most decent days of this break. first off, i woke up did some stuff, then ended up having a conversation with my dad about some of the stuff i talked about here on the passion. which was fairly interesting debate especially since i never know that hes reading so i assume otherwise... *shrug* anyways, then i was around the apartment, watching some tv and dany came around 6ish. he got tickets again from his uncle to the habs-hurricanes game. so we ended up going. the tickets this time were even better, just left of centre ice on the bench side, in the reds, 95$ tickets for free. or as dany puts it, better seats, the same amount of action. :-p anyways, the game actually was a snorer until we won 1-0 in overtime. considering we outshot like 31-18, it should have been a better game. after that, we went to bellepro's for some food and then hung around chapters until david and lauren called. it was the last night of the montreal high lights festival and there was stuff going on downtown all night. so we went to city hall around 11 and they were doing dancing. then there was the 1130-1230 quebecois dancing. and that was fun. i decided to get in on it and man, it was like being back in class in chicoutimi. complete complete blast. after that we headed towards home and stopped by the free all night party at club soda. some good dancing and then we left again. at that point it was like 3am so we were kinda wiped. and now im watching the mclaughlin group. i love love love this show. best political punditry show. and since its on, its time to watch... more later...
