Almost a vacation

Well, it's been a strange time right now. I am ahead of all my work for school, but still feel oddly stressed about the whole thing. I think that it might be the fact that in 6 months I'll be finished and then I need to find a job, and with a recession hitting the entire world at the same time, I have to say I am a little stressed that things will not be easy as of next year. Why am I thinking about that already? That's just the kind of person I am ... just having a weak moment and I eventually get over it. I usually live moment for moment and never worry about things I can't really control, but lately that's been harder and harder to do with the doomsday reports on the news every single day.

On the bright side, my girlfriends and I from school, have decided to take a weekend get-away to Mont-Tremblant. We've rented a 2-bedroom suite and we're spending the entire time there hiking, lounging in the hot tub and probably doing some drinking. I think tons and tons of fun will be had by all and I really can't wait at all. It's gonna be loads of fun!

Oh yeah, and my Christian Bale obsession is still going strong. woohoo!

Why make a mountain?

Seriously, sometimes people make so much out of nothing. People need to get some perspective. There are people in the world dying of hunger and poverty, there are people in our own city that have no where to sleep and nothing to eat.
When people complain for little things that cost next to nothing and will change absolutely nothing in the grand scheme that is their lives, it drives me insane.
Perspective, people ... perspective!!!

Going a little crazy ...

Well, it looks like this semester is going to be insanely busy, but the awesome thing is that I just got my last courses approved and will be registering soon for my last semester of school, ever! I can't believe how fast it's all gone. In just about 200 days, I'll be done and preparing for my awesome trip to California.

Speaking of, I saw Equilibrium again this weekend and I was again reminded of the awesomeness of Christian Bale. The man is absolutely perfect and I couldn't imagine admiring someone one, or finding anyone in the world sexier. He's such an amazing actor and such a beautiful man. There is nothing he can't do and I look forward to seeing him in Terminator next summer. And although I don't really want to get my hopes up, I will be California for the premiere and intend to do anything and everything to meet him. How can I be so close to him and not meet him? It won't happen, and those who know me, know that once I set my mind to something it'll happen.

Oh, and David Cook's song was released yesterday and it so good. It's called "Light On" and I urge everyone to listen to it. Take a listen to it here: http://www.popeater.com/music/article/exclusive-david-cook-turns-the-light-on/185647

A bit of a rant

What happened to manners and politeness?

Ok, so I remember a time when people used to wait for those exiting the metro to get out before they got in. Now, people just push in before anyone has had a chance to get out. What the hell is that all about.
Also, people standing at the door of a bus or metro should check and see if people are getting off when the metro stops. Otherwise, they will be pushed out of the way and can't complain about it. I've missed stops thinking that the idiot standing at the door is getting off.
Oh, and when your driving and you get to the stop sign first, you get to go first ... it's Driving 101 people ... and blinkers. They're there to advise people around you what you're intending on doing (turning, stopping, slowing down) ... don't put them on at the last minute. I'm not freakin' psychic.

Oh, and one more ... when you're at the movies, you can talk up until the moment the movie begins and then shut the f**k up. And if you're there to watch an English movie, and don't understand English, tough. Don't ask the person next to you to translate the whole freakin' movie for you. Maybe you should go see it in another language. Or better yet, wait for the DVD and use the subtitles or buy the dubbed version. I don't care, just don't ruin a perfectly lovely time at the movies by gabbing through it ... and if you don't turn off your cell phone, you will be yelled at. Be warned!

OK, enough ranting for now.
