Oh dear

I never seem to remember these things, do I? Exactly why I consciously put it off I don't know.

Back to finishing this godforsaken Endgame essay. Mr. Beckett, I don't care that you are already deceased, I am giving you my death stare.

Heading back down to New York tomorrow. Working on designing new liveries for TOC's* in the UK. Really craving for some vanilla rooibos tea. Yeah, I'm that cool.

CSX, don't screw with me or I will hunt you down and hurt you bad, boy.

The weary traveller.

Lots of things have gone down recently...I came down with the flu recently. Hit me like two tons of bricks and the powers that be (read: viruses) decided to open all floodgates and cause destruction in London (read: me). After complete exhaustion, I dragged myself through 11 hours on Amtrak, not getting up once. The good people at CSX are clearly out to get me. Mind you, better than being left a practical invalid alone in New York for three days...

I'm back up in Canada now, and am feeling much better. Mum+Kim are driving down tomorrow morning, but I was feeling out of place/sorts at the apartment anyway, so I'll be stay up here for a few more days before heading down again, hopefully by next Friday.

I'm really, really pissed off to be missing Kyle Hall @ Sunday Best. Someone in my age bracket (younger even!) and the promise of a good party with good friends...and I'll be languishing up here. Even the cats are ignoring me.

At least there's the one thing that will never say no...Youtube*.

*sigh*


*Get your mind out of the gutter, seriously.

Oh hai

I've arrived safely in Manhattan, handed in one half of my work, and like the way my room is. Life is good. Will be here for the rest of the summertime.

Oh, hello world.

How have you been? There's been a lot that's happened with me lately...

I've finished high school, and it feels good. 

I'll be in Manhattan for the summertime, and will be actually keeping this blog updated.

Yes, I say that every other post, but this time I have stuff to blog about.

It's been exactly 6 months since my last post. Hivemind.

Right now, though, back to Law & Order SVU.
