The hardest part was letting go, not taking part

Just writing a little thing while I'm waiting another hour and forty five minutes till my last class of the day at 1:00. Then after that, I'll be getting the rest of the week off and the entire next week as well, so there's that to look forward to. Kem is also done school; he just had his piano jury exam this morning and from what he told me, it went pretty well. They didn't ask him to play much of the hard stuff that he had been struggling with, which is a good thing. Hopefully I'll see him today. We need to celebrate the fact that we're both done.

So Chels, what did you think of EPIC? Wasn't really all that much fun. Oh, by the way, after you left, I went to Leah, and told her that there wasn't anything for me to do, and she placed me and this other chick over by the food area to stand at the garbage cans and tell people where to put their garbage. We did this for... oh, 2 and a half hours. It was really boring, and most of the time, there weren't many people throwing things out. When the thing finally closed at 5:00, we were then told to go around and ask the exhibitors if they needed any help with anything, particularly the big name ones (ie. Toyota, BC Hyrdro, Telus, etc.) to suck to them as sponsors and everything. Majority of the people told us they didn't need any help, or that they were managing. There was one stall (the salt crystal lamps... you remember that one?) who asked for our help, so there was that. The cool thing was that we (this other chick) were offered a salt crystal lamp to take home... for free! I chose this pyramid one, and the other girl picked out this round one. It was really nice of them, to say the least. It's by the window in my living room right now... you can see it when you come over. Too bad you didn't stick around, eh?

Lily suggested doing something next Thursday (not this coming Thursday). Any ideas, guys? How about a games night? Would that be okay with everyone's schedules? Earlier? Later?

for my portfolio short (the short film that we will be made/directed/produced and that will serve as sort of a sample thing), we're going to be filming it probably during the end of June-ish. And for my short, it's going to be set on a bus. I'm really excited because we've been talking about the entire project for a while now. If I need extras, do any of you guys wanna spend your time sitting down on a bus for a few hours?

Ah... it looks somewhat sunny outside. Finally.

Miss you guys. See you soon, perhaps?
