Haha
It's 4:36am.
I slept at 10 and woke up at 1ish
I woke my brother up..eck.

I spent 45 minutes watching mariah ekkk.
I want to call jon but i know he'll be mad haha..
i've done it before...well it wasn't this early...and even then was he mad at me.
Chels i can sell you my mastering physics text!!!

Anyways...tty soon

merry belated christmas :)

hey guys

i hope you all had a good yesterday. i went over with my family to my aunt's house for dinner. was alright. i fell asleep there though so i'm not really tired right now.

you guys going boxing day shopping? i want to just for fun... i don't really need anything though. dan and i are going downtown i think later just so we can browse. not to draw attention away from you and jon, lily, (half sorry :( ) but just as a side note, today's dan's and my one year anniversary :)

emm... yeah. so i didn't get many presents this year... mainly because i didn't actually want anything, really, but i got some money.. which is good, because i want to go buy my school books soon :) yay books!

so... i will give you guys a call either later today or tomorrow (i'm gonna be out in the morning for breakfast and dt shopping and out for dinner with family). we can do something if you want, though i'm not super enthused or anything.

anyways, i hope you guys had a good day yesterday and got what you wanted. i'll see you guys soon :) good luck with any potential deal-seeking today!

-chels

Merry KRISTMAS

Our one month went fairly well.
It seems like that happened a long time ago even though it's only been a week.
I celebrated jon's birthday with his family on the 24th.
It went fairly well if i say so myself.
Everything is good so far.

Merry Christmas to you all..
And Chels, happy birthday on the 26th!!! <3
Call me up.

Happy Christmas Eve Eve...

how is everybody? Haven't seen most since Aaron's party, which was taboo-rific in my opinion :) How did the second one go? i didn't get the news in time, otherwise i would never have passed at old junkfood and more taboo. But anyhoo, Chels: the thing on the 16th (doo doo doo) was not that much fun (doo). But i made a spiffy bag to put your spiffy present in, so you're gonna be spiffed out when you see it. Btw, the minuit you have some spare time, give me a call, i have to hang out with you before the new year comes.. Aaron just cause i steal colours doesn't mean i'm a bad person...colour stealers have feelings too, you know...Okay, Lily how did your one month go with John (don't need to go into details..) i send you both my good thoughts. Merry Christmas to all.

Ann

brrr...

*cough cough* dammit... i need to go to the doctor :P stupid breathing.

anyways, aarie, sorry i couldn't make it to either of your parties :( i really am. i only had two days off between my last exam and christmas. we will do something later. really. after i clean my room. again. and again. (i've gotten into a psychotic habit of cleaning now)

so... what's new? emm... i'm working at shopper's tomorrow for the first time since a long time (a couple of weeks) and i feel weird. what else... err... well i used my two days off (mon and tues) for shopping... i got my mom a flower... thing... (i put a pic of it that i found online here) i thought it was really pretty. i also got some quesadillas (sp?) and a huge box of ribbon :) (for me, of course)

today i went to richmond centre and got cher a cute top and a starbucks gift card... and lots of bras for me :) la senza is having a sale right now, btw. get the really soft ones.. they're really comfy and are less than half price now. anyways... and shoes for me... (on sale!) and... err... orange julius. yum. i also got something for aarie.

so yeah. i feel slightly accomplished. i'm reading 1984 because cheryl and dan kept telling me to... so i bought it. i'm about half way through.

oh yeah, aarie, i did surprisingly well on my paper. thanks for your idea! you can read it if you reeeally want. i still feel like i could've done better...
oh well.
ann: how did the uhh... y'know... thing on the 16th go?

lily: tell me! :)

okay, nite

-chels

BARBEQUE WHATTTT!

Well i must say, it's definitely better than "G spot".
LOL

Sorry i can't make party numero deux.
But hope yall have as much fun as i did :D

Jon and i have a very interesting one month..
if you ask me i'll tell you but it was definitely one to remember :D

I'm spending money like crazy...
ARGH well it's the holidays...MERRY KRUSTAMASU...that's what the germans say lol tee hee.
well i'm going to meet chinese sants :D

I don't wanna be a stupid girl

No, this isn't Lily (or even colour-stealer Ann) but me, the mad scientist with the random colours. Thanks for the three of you for coming to the party on Sunday. I think I'm going to arrange a second kinda "post-party" thingy cuz I still have a lot of pop and junk food left, plus people still really want to play Taboo (remember "barbecue" Lily?!?!?) If it's this week, it would have to be on Wednesday (in the afternoon), cuz I'm going to be working from Tuesday right through till Saturday. Does this sound good with peopl? I'll also send out an e-mail as well.

Wow... they must really like you at work Chels (they are your coworkers, right?) to go and do all that for you... That was really nice of them... I can imagine how awkward it must have felt for you. And yes we all ignore your wish to leave your birthday alone but for good reason. I think you already know what it is.

So today I ran around Vancouver like a madman. I vowed that today I had to get "the" good take of my song, which I was going to be sending off to that songwriting competition that I've wanted to do since like grade 9. So I did one take of it with the mp3 player Chels gave me and it sounded pretty good so I quickly burned it onto a CD and wrote in all necessary info. All I needed was a typed lyric sheet, but my printer(s) don't have ink, and most libraries are closed on Mondays. So dressed in Lily's sweater and Annie's very metro scarf, I first had lunch with my dad and he dropped me off at a skytrain station, where I went to the Dowtown location and printed out the lyrics there. I stuffed everything in the package and was off to send it. My dad told me that because of the Christmas rush, it would likely take DAYS to get there ("there" being the radio station in Richmond) and that even express mail would take days. Not sure about anything, really, I went into the Canada Post across from the Library and lined up in this longgggg line, but it moved quite quickly. I first asked the guy how long it would take to send it normally stamped and he said a few days. Now, the deadline for submissions is Dec. 22 (this Friday). So when I heard this, I thought I was screwed. I asked him if it would be next week and he told me no, that it would be sometime this week, definately before Friday. I asked him about Express mail and he told me that it would get there tomorrow (which I still don't believe). But it would obviously cost more... like $6 more! And all that was inside my package was a CD and a piece of paper. But then I got paranoid about time and I just paid the $6 for the Express mail. And when I left, I felt so.... accomplished, like I had done something big. I was thinking that maybe this would be my big break... but I know that's too much to put faith in.

So next up I took the bus to visit Maggie at work and drop off a game that her boss wanted. By the time I got there, she had already left but i got to talk to her boss and gave her the game. I even got some cookies too. At this point it was already 3:45 -ish. The last thing in my big bag of presents was for Chels and so I went to IGA, but I was sure she wasn't there and of course I was right. I did see Josh (I think) but that's about it when it comes to people I know there. Finally, I took the 41st bus home... and found my keys. I misplaced them this morning and I thought maggie had stolen them but they were just in my jacket. So yeah... that's my day.

About the songwriting thingy... I guess I'll know if I'm in the finals when they contact me. Don't expect that to be anytime soon; they'll start playing the 4 or 5 finalists in January. I'm really excited about this. yay.....

Joanne: You're alive!!!!!!! Do you wanna come for the second party-thingy? Sorry I didn't phone you... I was going to but then work confused me and I guess I forgot....

Ann: How's your love life now, huh?

Lily: Wanna Taboo? Also, happy 1 month with you-know-who...

Chels: I'll see you soon and i'll try phoning you 2nite

That's it for now everyone! let me know what you think about the post-party and if you can come.

~~Aaron

NO MORE EXAMS :)

so today i went over to faith's house after my exam (which went horribly but it's over and i'm glad). she works with me at IGA. she's such a sweetheart. anyways, she wanted to have a mini christmas get-together. so when dan and i got there, laura and a couple other girls from work were there (as well as faith's husband... who's really really nice).

so we had dinner and were watching a movie... but in the middle, rob (faith's husband) stopped the movie (i was like huh?) and we all kinda turned around... and faith brought out this cake with a candle on it (like, those thick ones you use when you have a black out) and then they started singing happy birthday to me... hahahahahahahaha i was so stunned and confused... i felt so awkward... so i kinda stood up and slowly went towards faith and the cake (on a table... 'cause i had been on the couch) and blew out the candle and they took pics and stuff. it was really really weird 'cause you know (or you guys SHOULD although you tend to BLATANTLY IGNORE MEEE) how my bday isn't really a big thing to me at all... but yeah. it was really funny/cute of them. i honestly didn't even notice how close my bday is... 10 days. it still feels far away. (though aarie, i KNOW your bday is tomorrow. i didn't forget... i was just saying...)

and yeah. i'm really sorry i can't make it aarie. i will, however, call you (though you will prolly get my call before you read this) and find you another time.

ann: let's do something soon

lily: thank you again for the gift... though i told you not to, i appreciate it all the same *half smile*

emm... i'm shivering right now... brr.... wow it's late... i should go. i told dan i'd sleep by 2... but apparently not :(

damn work.

alright, night guys... have fun tonight (or today... i dunno how long it's gonna be)

- chels

ps- here's a preview of my new haircut... lily has already seen me but i had my hair up so i doubt she noticed... or did she??? doo doo doo

well i didn't ask..

but i know he's straight now. He told me about his past relationships (all with girls) so yeah. Btw, i wanna go xmas shopping with you guys, i'm free on fri. Aaron, dunno if lily told you yet, but i'm coming with you to the winter thingy. Anyhoo, can't think of much more to say. Oh, i really love that song "yellow", lately i've developed an infatuation for coldplay.

cheers,
Ann

I wrote a song for you, and it was called Yellow

So I'm still here experimenting with colours that I can barely see, btw, so if there are mistakes, then it's not my fault. I just e-mailed you guys about my brithday plans anm stuff... I've decided to make it on my birthday, the 18th. Hopefully everyone is okay with that... and hopefully Chels doesn't have to work. Sorry it took so long to get an exact date.

Yes Davie is a small community compared to say, Vancouver, but it's not fair to just take a sameple from there and approximate the number of gay people in BC, or even in Vancouver. What about all the closeted guys/girls? How are you going to account for them? I've only been to Davie st. this year. And if Hadn't come out, I'd still fit into the "straight" catagory of yours now, wouldn't I?And what about all the people that are currently question their sexuality? (ie. don't know if they're gay or straight or whatever). And sure, it is just a "guesstimate", but it's going to be a bad guesstimeate and your sig figs are going to be wrong... And Ms. Wilson wouldn't like that... Anyway, I guess I'll see you at the Christmas Concert 2morrow and you can say whatever you want to me there, Lily.

Chels: Do you still want to goChristmas shopping? I'm off on Friday, but I don't know if you are... last time you weren't so I'm not sure if you are, or if you are still doing exams. Does anyone want to go shopping then? ANn or Joanne?? Maybe Lily? have you guys gone Christmas shopping yet? Or are you all doing your exams?

How did it go with the asking and such, Ann? Hopefully he didn't act too strongly... I'll take your advice on asking ppl out, Chels, but I don't think that will happen for a while now. I just spent some time figuring out some stuf...

If you ahve any problems with the party stuff (Dec. 18th, around 1-2 pm) then either e-mail me or blog it. See you all soon!

~~Aaron

Okay

First off,
Aaron i know i only know one gay guy..well 2 if you could will lau..haha. I also know that there are many guys that are gay in BC...but NOT ALL. That's why i said most guys aren't gay.
Not all of them aren't gay.
If you take into account the fact that Davie is a small gay community in the lower mainland, you can guesstimate the number of people that are and aren't.
I need to talk to you in person ebcause i don't like to type but...remind me when i see you.

Ann..suit yourself. You don't even want to be friends with him so i don't see the point. Does it really matter? does it make a difference?

Chels, i actually didn't know we were that serious. I'm at his place right now. And i asked him if it was a serious relationship and he nodded. But when you say serious it sounds like we're about to get married. I mean it's not a fling or anything like that.

Chem bye BABES and Ann! Hahah

okie doke

so 2 (aaron, chels) against 1 (lily), i guess i'll ask him then..but anyhoo, i'm free on sunday, but only after one-thirty...i'll bring me movies if you want, i have Elf...and Alfie...(which by the way is not a good movie, unless the only reason you're watching it is for Jude Law's sexual magnitism, then yeah it's a good movie) okay, i gtg...sorry for posting a short blog but gotta study

ps. Aaron, no exams?!? you lucky..uh student..
ann

hahaha you guys are funny

i would never date a guy who got honestly very shocked/insulted if i asked him if he was gay. i tend to ask odd questions, and i'd hope he'd just... either say he's uncomfortable with the question or else get over it and just answer. i don't think that's too much of a personal question... i just (in this hypothetical situation in which i'm evalutating whether he's date-able or not) want to know if he could even potentially be into me. and if he's that thrown off by such a little thing, then i'm not interested anymore.

what if he wouldn't answer me and so i assumed that he was straight and then got really into him and asked him out and then he told me he was gay? i'd be so mad at him... :P

gangster ears? what a loser. hahaha. unless you like him, ann... then i'm just kidding and i mean, gangster ears? ooooooh yeah.

btw, aaron... i hope you know that by putting your bday on the 17th, i have half a day to shop/prep your present. unless i get dan to go shopping for me (which i actually have never done but would rather not have to consider). i have french and chem on monday and need to stay home and study (aside from work... which i've been doing the past 4 days in a row) and then english on tuesday which i am FREAKED for... then math on sat for which i need to spend the remaining three days preparing for my mathematical demise... and then when it ends (at 7pm) i guess i can worry about my aaron-dispensed demise. :(

my pic "analysis" was more of me being really excited and like, making random points about the pic and then following up. i didn't know it would be so critically analyzed... :(

need to shower and chem (AGAIN) byebye!
-chels

ps - so uhh... tell me again when you guys got so serious...? (lily)

pps - aaron!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i don't care if you don't ask people out but don't say you will and convince yourself (or at least me) that you're gonna do something this time and then back (or chicken) out. because that's exactly what dan did... for many months. and although i've forgiven him, like... it's not fun on the receiving end to expect something. what if you gave your customer service guy a glimpse of hope in your eyes?? your eeeeyes!
i dunno. maybe try not to resolve to do anything until you've got the facts... or at least are kinda sure you do. single? gaydar going off? he nice enough to be worth your time? (because only a select few single gay guys are worth your time) then maybe you should consider it. but before you even know if he's single, for example... i dunno. rushed to conclusions?
do you know if he's single? (i was just exampling)

ppps - not suggesting anything (seriously) but merely commenting: i think it's weird when people who met at work start going out. not like, if they were going out and then get jobs together... but if people met at work and then start going out. i just think it's... i dunno. more so for older people though... like, one of the assistant managers at iga goes out with a bakery lady... it's actually quite odd. and he'll buy her flowers and stuff and service clerks will give him crap about it and all... :| but i think it's because he's old (30s?). and he works at iga. iga is weird.

There's no such thing as a stupid question, only stupid people asking questions

As you can see, I switched colours to compensate for all the lost ones not being used by lazy ppl (Lily!... and Ann) That and I'm bored... I think Lily misinterpreted something. I don't Ann is interested in this guy... Chels just suggested that and you seemed to have latched onto that. Also, it doesn't look like he's doing bunny ears... what kind of bunny has ears on the side of its head? I think he's doing the stupid gangster thing (ie. "Peace out, y'all") And maybe he has to lean in so that he can fit in the picture. I dunno...

I don't think it's unacceptable to ask someone if he/she is gay. It may not be a normal, everyday question, but it's not exactly taboo. I mean, yeah there's always the chance that he/she will respond with the "what the hell?" kind thing/look, but if they take it as some sort of insult, that says more about them than it does about you. Furthermore, I disagree about the theory about how BC doesn't have that many gay ppl/teens. Just because you don't know that many gay ppl doesn't mean they're not there. I mean, yeah I don't really know anybody, but I know they're around. Also, just because we don't go parading our sexuality doesn't mean we're all straight. Take a look at Davie St., our little pride street. Many places dont' even have some kind of diverse village, probably something like Alberta, but that's not to say there aren't gay ppl there either. I know I could on and on and maybe write an essay about this but I don't want to bore you guys.

It looks like Sunday the 17th may be the day for my b-day party. I just have to ask Joanne and see if she's okay with it. And also try and get the day off from work, which shouldn't be too hard. I 'm thinking of qutting Futureshop soon; I think i'm getting a little bored of working there. Speaking of work and while we're on the topic of the gay theme, I think I'm gonna ask a guy out, but I know I said that before and didn't do squat. First I'm gonna ask my co-worker friend who has good gaydar (damn her!) and maybe consider it. I may even ask him if he likes guys, cuz sometimes we get to talk. And no, he isn't Marcus. He is this guy that works at Customer Service and is the same age as me.

Okay... i think i"m not gonna ask him out. Sorry... i would totally delete that but I'm too lazy and this whole thing seems like stream-of-conciousness. Then again, I've done nothing really remarkable with my life and i'm only wasting away, slow as it may be. Argh.. i wish I had a therapist.

~~Aaron
PS. Ann, I don't really care what you get me, as long as it's somewhat sentimental (and not a Hilary Duff cd)

I don't know what's going on exactly

and by that i mean Ann.
If you're interested then go for it. but i'm not going to push you in any direction except maybe to the left, where the boys bathrooms are.
If you have a good feeling then i'm for it. As long as yo'ure happy right?

Anyways, i wouldn't ask him if he's gay. Most guys in BC aren't...and why would you do that anyways?
Is it because of Aaron?
So if he is you can hook Aaron up?
I KID..sort of..

But seriously i think asking him if he's gay is kinda weird to begin with. I mean, you can do that in our circle like "hey aaron, you gay?" or even like "hey ann..what's why the man hair?"...etc
But to normal people i don't think it would be acceptable.

I've stop using colours OBVIOUSLY because everyone uses them and i'm lazy even though i just need to highlight and click.

My finals end on the 13th.
i had my bio one already. so 4 to go.

*GASP*

yay ann!!! picture!!! finally :P

let me use my super picture analysis uhh... techniques to decipher hidden feelings! :)

the picture is kind of small... where were you? some kind of mall? (RHYME... NOOO) (oakridge??? booo) well, both your heads are slightly tilted towards each other (his even more than yours) which means... that... i don't know how to put it in words, but like, you have... good feelings towards each other. he has bunny ears behind you... playful. and then if you stare a bit, you can see that your body is facing the camera but... *GASP* his is turned towards you!!! with guys, in general, that is a sign of openess... also, you guys seem to be standing pretty close... comfortable with each other?

anyways ann, stop wondering and just ask him. seriously. if he gets offended then there's something wrong with him. i've asked many a guy. including dan... several times (to his great annoyance). if the guy is like, comfortable enough with his sexuality or whatever, asking him shouldn't be a problem. here, let me show you...

"hi andrew!"
"oh, hello ann!"
"so uhh... how was ... that thing you were supposed to do last night...?"
"my psych project?"
"yeah"
"good :)"
"oh... well, that's good."
*pause*
"hey andrew?"
"yeah?"
"are you gay?"
"YES!!!" OR "uhh... no... why?"
"just making sure, that's all. don't wanna repeat of what happened with aaron..."
"WHAT?! who is this aaron???"
etc
etc

hahaha, just kidding about the aaron part.






i think... *DOO DOO DOOOOO*
-chels :)

Dirty Little Secret

So I was thinking of having my birthday party either on the 16th (saturday) or the 17th (sunday). Could you guys tell me if you guys are available on either days and which one is better, so that I could make it official. I know Chels has an exam on the 16th at 3:00-ish so that's why I'm asking if you guys might be able to make it on the Sunday. I'll probably send out an e-mail if you guys might not see this (ie. joanne).

No Ann, my (pathetic) gaydar is not "ringing off the wall". I don't even know what that's supposed to sound like, so I'm not sure. At first glance, he seems pretty straight, but because of your superior gaydar to mine, I can't help but doubt. Eh... whatever. You two look like you're having fun there...

Lily, I guess I should apologize about my whole spew last time. When I first read your post I didn't think much of it. Then I had some time to think about everything you said and I guess I kinda got a little angry. I don't know... I think I've repressed all my anger for the last several years and a bit of it got out. Anyway, sorry if that came out too strong. I hope you + Jon are happy together. Btw, yes I would like to go to the Christmas concert on the 14th, but Maggie + Bekki have already planned to go so I guess I'm going with them (they made plans like a month before). I'll see you there though!

So school is over for you guys, right? (excluding Ann) Then you got finals/exams/final exams... oh what fun... I know you've been avoiding me Lily (mysteriously appearing offline when I'm on MSN) , but I'm not gonna let you so I'm gonna phone you right after I finish this.

Uh... hmmm... i guess I dont' have anything else to say. Take care for now... and don't forget to tell me which day is good/better for my b-day. Toodles!

~~Aaron

christmas is so close i can taste it..

ok, if i don't do something with you guys i think i'm gonna burst...and it's not gonna be a pretty picture (i just had a bean burrito..) i can wallow in my own craziness starting from dec. 13, yes, all is welcome to wallow with me. btw speaking of christmas presents (which i wasn't, but i am now) aaron what do you want for your bday/christmas prezzie? i have an idea for chels, but none for you. Speaking of whom, Chels, do you like TNA? hope that didn't give anything away...alors je dois etudier, mon examen de francais est demain..toodle loo.

ps, that's guy (aka Andrew) up there. I look kinda idiotic, oh well, what are ya gonna do? aaron, don't know if you can tell from a pic, but tell me if your gaydar's ringing off the wall.

ann

aww...

aww, aarie. of course you're important to us! i really do miss you a bit and that's saying something because i hardly ever miss anyone, to be honest with you. i'm always afraid of change, but once it happens, i think i get over it pretty quickly... so when people leave, i get sad (that's why i hate goodbyes) but then like... i just kind of shrug it off like, well that's that and move on, y'know? so even if i don't miss people it doesn't mean i don't like them, etc. i never ever miss my parents (like, EVER) or relatives or most people from high school, actually. i do, however miss you! and ann too... lily? meh... just kidding. i see you slightly more often though. and joanne seems to have fallen off the face of the earth... :\

anyways, aarie, i'm sure lily never meant to be mean. she was just prolly... very... excited about new things in her life, is all. and yes, we SHOULD go shopping. very soon.

btw, aarie, you must inform me of when you plan to have your bday so i can ask for the day off (i need time ahead... iga schedules 3 weeks in advance and shoppers, 2). if you're having it and i already was scheduled to work (VERY LIKELY) then you need to tell me so i can get someone to take the shift for me.

jeffrey's bday is the day after tomorrow. i really need to go to toys r us soon or something. AHH.

aarie, you're my favorite aarie. really. :) don't be sad, please.

lily, are things okay?

ann, how are things with the guy? have you gotten a pic yet?

okay, gotta print out some stuff for CHEM

bye!

-chels

ps- i'm gonna cut my hair... prolly about shoulder length! :) i'm excited.
pps- FINAL EXAMS BOOOOOOO

...

AARON STOP BEING A WIENER.
Yes Jon does live close.
And NO you don't have to invite Jon.

Right now, i'm studying for finals.
And maybe when i wrote that post, i did assume that he was more important in my life than my friends but as i type this, i'm reassessing my values.

Jon is Jon. He is my best friend because he's the only one i really talk to.
I told him it doesn't feel like we're dating. And honestly it doesn't.

I want to go to the PG christmas concert on thursday Dec 14. Aaron, you want to come?

According to Leon, Chamber is really bad without kev..haha i kid.
But anyways, I'm not going to lose my friends over him.

A Note on Apathy

Well, well, well... if it isn't the Lily, finally coming on the blog to update us about her love life, then tells the rest of us that she's too busy with her new bf to hang out with her friends (and studying too, but then again that seems to be the very core of your life). Then again, Jon lives way closer to you than any of us (especially me) so how could you not be with him? And when you say you're too preoccupied with dating him and studying to have time with us, are implying that we're less important?? (I already know you said yes to that question, Lily) And i know part of this whole thing is that we don't see each other much anymore, and therefore get used to not having each other around, so I can figure why we would be lower on your list. But you guys know you mean so much to me in my life, so when I learn that I'm not that important in your lives, it hurts just a bit. I don't know if the rest of you feel the same, but that's me. (yes, there is a bit of resentment in this paragraph, I won't lie). Okay, enough of that.

Ann: excited for exams? I'll bet... are you free at all on weekdays?

Joanne: Where are you? (hopefully not going crazy over studying)

Chels: Chrstimas shopping next week? Maybe?

On a completely different topic, none relating to the first paragraph whatsoever..... would you be offended if I didn't invite Jon to my b-day party, Lily? Nothing personal, it's just... he's not really my friend (and no, he's not my enemy either). Also, it's not like I'm obliged to invite him or anything... Just wondering what you might think about this (I haven't made up my mind yet)

I realize I've been a little outspoken in this entry... I'm trying out this thing where I'm not constantly trying to appease everyone. Hope that's okay with you guys.

Non, je n'ai pas une vie amour. I think i'm getting close to just quitting... I mean, Lily's dating before I am... what is the world coming to?!?!

Until next time,

~~Aaron

Ps. I think I'm gonna enter one of my songs in the Canadain Songwriter's contest thingy... (the same one that Chels' cousin entered last year)
