Yeeeeehaaaww

HI!

I missed you.

So I'm back.
Back in Calgary.
Back in residence.
Back in the shit of school.

And I'm rather happy at the moment.

We have a lot of ground to cover regarding the last week or so here, you may want to go out into the Vitamin D or grab a glass of Beep occasionally.


MONDAY

Woke up around 9 and finished packing the last minute essentials into my backpack and then hit the road with my dad, Brittney and Cole.
The ride was rather short and exceptionally conversational. There were really only 2 or 3 points where everyone fell under silence for a while either sleeping or listening to music or in the case of my omega-nerd girlfriend, doing homework. LOVE HER.
At one point my dad was like "het you have to drive because I have a meeting over the phone.." Needless to say this was one of the breaks were there was minimal talking.
Other than that it was a pleasantly short trip and before we knew it we were in Calgary.

Get into the city and Jeff (my dad, who will be henceforth called by name for the sake of only having to type one name and not two words) announced that he had a tee time with my uncle in 20 minutes.
Awesome.
So we raced him to the golf course and dropped him off meaning Britt and I got the car for the rest of the day, fair deal.
Immediately after that Britt and I dropped Cole off at his crib and we raced off to Chinook Mall to do some shopping. After pushing my new Android phone to the very limit of its battery life via interactive maps, we found the mall.
Went in there and dented the credit card at FCUK and Burberry. No regret. All smiles.
Got back to my aunt and uncles around 10 and watched some tv then drifted off to sleep watching Craig Furguson. Ideal sleep sounds.

TUESDAY

Started the moving in process and made it to the rez quickly and moved in efficiently by about 1030 and then made a trip back to the aunt and uncles for another round of shit.
Dropped off Jeff to golf yet again and as we departed he said, "yeah there's free booze so I probably won't need the car all day... or night."
Message received.
Headed out the the Cross Iron Mills outlet mall and spent a good 4 hours out there. After the first half hour of teamwork shopping I decided I needed to move more than Britt liked to so we parted ways. I didn't really go too crazy because of my fill from the previous day but Britt had a good time so all was well.
That night we met up with cole for supper at Chop, a fancy pantsy dancy restaurant attached to Chinook mall and after we went to Harry Potter because Cole has yet to be bathed in it's glory and well I've only seen it thrice.

WEDNESDAY

Short day.
Roomates came up and we unpacked stuff and thats really about it.

THURSDAY

School started and it was the alpha and omega of lame.

Rolled into my painting class and the teacher began blaring Die Antwoord (thats the part thats not lame) and the people filed in.
We soon learned that this teacher is a little fucked in the head, he went on tangent after tangent about media and blah blah which should usually be interesting but this guy just sucked dix.

We did the whole "go around the room and relay useless information about your shitty being and your favorite ways to stick your finger up your butt" thing at which point I was already doing a silent "SEE YEAH LATER."

Finally the whole point of the class became the topic of conversation and my heart sank.
"So this year its not like a usual painting class. We're going to be reading a lot of old books to get a grasp on the work you will be doing."
"Now if you'd like to take a 5 min break to grab a coffee and we'll regroup and continue with out shitty day."

.....PEACE!

Left that bitch with an inky black trail of dripping disappointment in my wake, following me all the way back to res.

But there is always light where there is dark and I found that light by grabbing Brittney (this is sounding dirty) and heading to the Zoo. FUCK YEAH ANIMALS.
Had a splendid day with her at the zoo which included sleepy grizzlies, wolves actually running around and howling, and watching river otters for an hour among other things.

That night was really mainly spent me unpacking yet more shit and just hanging out before drifting off to sleep.

FRIDAY

Went to drawing class and got the whole "pre-semester what to expect" thing and then went home. Got Britt and we headed downtown to art central (a snazzy little place full of local galleries and what not. Walked around downtown and got the stroke of inspiration to head up the Calgary Tower.. WORD.

Did that and snapped a pic

BAM

Around 615 Britt's cab came and she left for the airport leaving me all alone.

WEEKEND

God damn I'm getting tired..

After Britt left I met Cole at the mexican place and driled some bulldogs while waiting for the sasky-boiz to come up being Cortlin, Owen, and Matt.
They showed up and the night progressed.
It was messy.

The rest of the weekend was really just a blend of eating out and drinking.

Not much to report.

The last week progressed rather dully and now it has gone and I'm sitting in english on another Monday.
I won't leave blogging this long again so I can be more detailed in sharing my days with the 2 people that read it.
