Before I tell my parents or anyone else, I just got an e-mail from Berklee. I already had a feeling (mainly I just keep my expectations low), but... I didn't get in.
Sigh... I don't feel bad for not getting in, honestly. I feel bad because I sort of want to get out of this city and this was a big chance for me to do that, and now it looks like I'll be staying here after all. But at least you guys are here.
I feel like this only solidifies my parents' belief that I can't do anything with my life. Ugh... I spent the entire day (from 10am till 10pm) at YouthCO, editing my short film so I'm a little tired. Sigh... this sucks.

I'll be in the angry dome
Ugh, my mom is trying to make me go with her to my physiotherapist's birthday party which he invited us to. It's not that he's just some random guy; I've known his daughter since elementary school, and he used to give us rides to school in Grade 6 and 7, so it's like he's some weirdo. Anyway, he invited us to his birthday party (me, Maggie, my mom and my dad) and we have to RSVP by March 1st. My mom made me go and e-mail him because she's completely inept at doing it herself. It was only then that I realized his birthday is next Sunday, which is when we've semi-planned to meet and after I told her, she was like, "Well, who's going to go with me?" (and Maggie can't go cuz she has some filming to do and I don't know why no one's telling my dad about it) So I replied, "You can just go yourself."
And then of course going by herself is apparently not even a remote possibility so she tried to convince me to go by quite ridiculous things to say (which I will not even repeat because it will only frustrate me again). Anyway, in the end, she left me alone and told me to put us down for 2 seats, but then I got angry again and sought revenge so I e-mailed and told them I wasn't coming but she was. I hope she's not mad... but I want to hang out with all of you (minus Lily because apparently she'll be busy), especially Chels, who is only in town for the weekend (which my mom didn't seem to understand!!!! ARGH!)
Anyway, yes. You guys can still come over to my place to hang out... or we could always switch it up and go somewhere else if ya want. I still have that new board game which I haven't opened... hmm.
Congrats Lily!

Sunday Nite?
Hey guys,
So I am free on Sunday afternoon (I think) and evening (for sure) if you guys wanted to get together while I am in Vancouver. Unfortunately, I am booked for the rest of the evenings in Vancouver already, so Sunday is The Day!
Or we could always do like, Saturday morning/afternoon, if Sunday is not good..?
Dunno, just let me know what works for you guys. I come into Vancouver Friday evening (around dinner?) and I leave on Monday.
-Chels
Ps- if you forgot, I am coming to Vancouver next weekend!

vlog entry!
Hey guys!
Just to give a bit of disclaimer, don't let this make you sad. I am seriously fine. I was just a bit emotional...
Also, there is a super annoying buzzing in the background (I have nooo idea what it is!) in the vid so I apologize about that.
Anyhow, this vid will probably take like, two hours to upload so I shall post pics in the mean time...
Btw, sorry I look so freaky on the vid... I don't know why that is. Maybe I am just tired? Haha, dunno!
See you all soon, I hope! (12 days till I am in Vancouver!!!!!!!)

Casting call!
It's been about... oh, 11 years or so since I've actually acted in some sort of production (and the last time was for my that Christmas play in Grade 6, although on a sidenote, a year before that, I was in my class production of "Who's in Rabbit's House?" and I did a pretty bang up job there), and it's not that I'm not interested in acting, I just think like a writer.
That being said, I had my first audition for a acting role today.
Haha, yeah, I know. Pretty random, eh? I found an ad on craigslist (under the tv/film category. I sometimes look there to see if there might be writing jobs or anything interesting) for a casting call for a short film. A lot of the short film stuff that I read on craigslist isn't very interesting or they don't apply to me (ie. I'm not what they're looking for) but then I saw this one that was somewhat relevant to me:
Synopsis:
Not wanting to attend his own Living Funeral, a Man chooses to spend his
time outside in the cemetery, until a strange Woman, who has experienced loss of
her own, helps him make a decision.
MAN (mid 20's)
A very intelligent person, with a strong future, all of it seems to have left him
though since he has discovered he is dying. He has chosen to replace it with
sarcasm and seclusion. He has a great family, that just wants to see him happy
again, but with the recent death of his boyfriend, everything is starting to become
too real.
After I read it, I wanted to be a part of the film... somehow. I figured I might as well try out for the part. So I sent an e-mail to the listing and got some info and went in this afternoon to do it.
Even though I had memorized the short part of the script that I was given, I was still nervous, since I hadn't done an acting audition since elementary school. But it went alright, I think. Definitely wasn't a disaster, I don't think. The director/writer also went to VFS so we bonded on that level. Hopefully, I impressed enough to get the gig, and if not, it was fun. I'll find out in a couple days. Apparently about 20 people auditioned today, so I'm not going to get confident about it. I'm sure other people have actually acted in stuff and have real experience compared to me. Still, it would be so awesome if I did get that part.
Anyhoo, that was the highlight of my day. Omg! Yay! Chels, you're coming back, and it's not going to be a surprise! Hurrah! So you're coming back here not this last weekend in Feb. but next next weekend, right? Yeah, hopefully you'll be able to get people to come to games night, unlike me trying unsuccessfully.
Only one more week till I hear back from Berklee. I'm not sure what to feel.

NEWS FLASH!
Hey guys,
Okay, first, I just wanted to give you this bit of news (Lily should already know though... But seriously, I have only told a few people so this is still pretty exclusive! *Gasp!*): I am coming to Vancouver the first weekend in March!
We should have a games night if you guys have time :) (since the other ones fell apart kind of I think...) Just like the olden days...
I am good. Dan is leaving tomorrow evening so it will just be me and Miao again (which is fine). We went snowboarding for the first time ever last night and my knees are pretty bruised (my butt is a little bit bruised as well). It was really fun! I would totally do it again! I am going to try to get Dan to get his full license by the next time he comes (he is already eligible) so we can get a car (he will also be 21 so he can rent) and do fun day trips :) Oh, last night I did not attempt The Big Hill like I had last time when we went skiing... No, I learned my lesson...
Aaron: Thannks :) You need to be more emotionally unstable like me so people are afraid not to show up to games night (they don't know what to expect! Pain? Death? Oh the possibilities!) :P hahaha ;) jk. Yeah Dan was like, "I totally would have gone to games night!"
Lily: I notice you have been forgetting meetings lately... Hmmmmmmm What is on your mind? :O
Ann: MMbop!
-Chels :) See you guys soon, kind of! I hope! If you are not too busy! Yes, I realize my closing statement is after my name!

Minutes to seconds
Wheeee... I'm at UBC right now as I type, sitting across from Lily and listening to Vanessa Carlton on my laptop. I saw He's Just Not That Into You yesterday at a matinee showing at Metrotown, and I know it's a chick-flick, but near the end when everyone was hooking up with everyone (you know the part), these group of girls were all gasping loudly at the apparent "sweetness" of some scenes, and it made me roll my eyes over and over again. My friend who I went to see it with (Lulu, my film partner), just told me, "They're girls." and yeah, okay fine, I get that, and I've seen my share of sweet moments on screen, but I don't gasp audibly (I'm pretty sure everyone in the theatre heard them -- they were that loud). I also saw Coraline on Saturday, which is a way better movie. Plus the 3D make things really cool... it's been a while since I saw anything in 3D.
Last week on Friday, I went in and had an interview with American Apparel and now I'm waiting to see if they'll call me back. I think it went okay (better than the one with Kai for the Bay... well, anything is better than that) but I'm not getting my hopes up. There were bunches of other people there that also got interviewed and they weren't dressed very formally at all; plus it looked like they had actual American Apparel stuff and not just one shirt like me. Oh well.
Joanne: I tried to get a hold of you on Saturday (or was it Sunday) to ask if you wanted to come by for the games night, and I left a message. But it's okay, since no one was able to show up.
Lily: I don't know what to say except I didn't know you hated Starbucks.
Chels: Hope you're doin okay! Games night fell apart because you weren't there... well, that and also people didn't come. I miss game nights with you! (and Dan)
Ann: Are you better yet? Also, what're you up to this weekend?

oh yeah!
ugh i forgot to mention i have 4 cover letters due tonight! FOUR! i feel like i am going insane. i actually wrote stuff this time to... blech. it is necessary this time because i am applying for jobs at AAFC (where i am currently working). i dunno, i just feel like if i somewhat know the people, i should actually put more effort into my cover letters (because if they suck i will be embarrassed).
anyhow, i am done 3 of 4 as of right now, but am tired... and still have much (MUCH) work to do for my online course! ahhh!!!
i know once fri/sat comes, i will be all good, but for now, i feel like i am going crazy! i am currently visualizing my hairs turning white at this moment.
also, my left lower wisdom tooth has fully emerged (it was really sore a few days ago). however, my right lower wisdom tooth is only about 1/3 out and is starting to bother me. good grief!
okay, don't be naughty at work ann!

wow sounds like one heck of a weekend chels. i dunno why but that vegan chocolate sounds really good, that dan's a lucky fella. lets see, valentine's day i will be working most of the night away and i won't get to spend any time with oliver until its technically the next day (i get off at 1am) but i do get to see him at pizza hut the whole night, yay! although none of the people at work knows anything and we decided to keep it that way so i'll have to be fellow coworker ann.
Today i went to the mall and spied on people. no aaron, your "ann's a creepy stalkeress" theory is not confirmed, i was watching consumer behaviour with my project partner for marketing. it was alot less fun than i had imagined, i wish one of you guys were there.
so not much else, studying for midterms, eating gross cookies...

in the mood
hey guys,
so valentine's day is coming up... what are your plans?
dan is coming on friday (yay!) and i was originally not planning anything, but miao (my roommate) and frank (a friend/coworker) were all like, must do things for people all the time so i caved into peer pressure and got a few things for dan/dan+me. it started out with a bath bomb shaped like a cupcake. simple enough. miao, in the meantine bought massage oil, the thing that you put normal scented oils on top of and a candle underneath so it spreads the smell of deliciousness, some swim trunks (this was random, at least from my point of view), a card, and i don't remember what else. oh, chocolate too. anyways, i was thinking well it's special for her because she does not see her boyfriend often (he goes to school in waterloo; they met in high school) so they have to make their time extra special. then i realized, i don't see dan often so i should make our time more special too!
i am by no means a romantic, but i kind of realized that i should make more of an effort. so anyhow, i decided to buy floating candles (i have always been intrigued by the concept) as we have a really big tub here. then i bought him special vegan chocolate (okay, this cost me $5 a bar! wth! it kills meeeee!) and a bottle of locally-produced white wine (i don't like wine, but then this isn't really about me buying stuff for me so yeah). theeeen i realized we don't have wine glasses. so then i bought wine glasses. jeez.
i mean, i was still my regular old cheap self, so that all cost me... under $40 including tax. but still.
this is going to sound silly, but after i bought the bath bomb, i felt like i was the nicest person in the world. hahaha, i guess because although i try to be nice to everyone, i never really give dan any extra special attention. so yeah, at this point, i feel like he's being super ultra spoiled!
anyhow, i am excited for him to come. unfortunately, i have a 1250 word paper due on friday night so i am going to try to finish it by thursday night (as dan will be coming friday afternoon)... hopefully that will work out. i still need to write it...
though, in my defence, i have done much research. plus i had a quiz last week. and discussion posts due. (<-- this part refuses to turn green, for some reason...)
but yes. i am busy/tired over here. how about you guys? how was AA aarie?
OH YEAH this is a surprise btw. so don't tell dan any of this please, if you see him!
talk to you guys later!
-chels
ps- my landlord came over like, 2o mins ago and gave miao and me cupcakes (he owns a cupcake shop)! i am so happy :)

HAHA Ann. "healthy diabetic fibre cookies"
Sunday sounds goodo.
I have an interview with safeway for the pharmacy internship program on wednesday. From what i heard from my brother and his gf, they said that EVERYONE, like LITERALLY EVERYONE gets a job. But i just found out that he applied in his 3rd year.
So this makes me worry because not EVERYONE in my year will get a job...Jon is going to help me with my interview tomorrow but I don't want to think about it. BOY I HATE INTERVIEWS! BLAH!
I made YUMMY sugar cookies :) I'll make some for you guys.

not that i was skimming aaron (reference lily here.) but i didn't catch why you were at american apparel. are you applying for a job there? if you get it i'll help you think of ways to let me use your discount :)
anyhoo sunday sounds good but i have work until 6pm, so i'll be there asap but it'll have to be after work...
random gross fact: my toe nails are breaking because i've been wearing heels too much
i baked cookies today, but like everything else i bake they were not sweet enough cause i don't follow the recipe for sugar. so if anyone likes healthy diabetic fibre cookies, i have way too much.

Into the Wild
So I didn't go into that open call at American Apparel on Friday after all. I had to pick up the camera from YouthCO because I wanted to take it out for the weekend to do some more shooting, and thought it would be somewhat... not as professional, I guess, if I went in with it. That being said, they do seem kinda laid back. I'm going in tomorrow instead... not sure what to wear. My first instinct was somewhat formal, but then again, I think they want to see how I dress, right? So I'm not sure. Maybe a dress shirt with my Schroeder t-shirt underneath... what do you guys think?
It appears games night will be delayed yet another week; we're officially meeting next week on Sunday the 15th at my place in the afternoon. I think I'm going to be teaching, but it's only half an hour and you guys can hide in my room for said time. Dan's going to be in Penticton, so we'll be short a player, but that should be okay. I think.
It's hard to believe that a year ago today, Kem and I were officially "boyfriends". I look at us now, and I almost start to wonder why we're in the state that we are... it's kinda sad. But it's okay. I'm dealing with it.
Anyway. That's about it. I think I started writing a song in Spanish... it kinda follows after the song I wrote in French, coincidentally. Haha

haha I should be prepping my lab but I would like to take a break.
Thank you Chelsea for the chocolate!! It was very delicious =)
And Aaron I'm glad I caught you on MSN today. It was a very boring tutorial and I needed something to keep me busy.
I got a job at Shoppers (finally) today so yay for me. I'm starting training next Monday. Gonna be sooo exhausted, ugh. I hope I don't screw up on the first day.
Aaron, I'm not sure if I can make it to your house this Sat. I'll just show up randomly, if I can.
Wednesday night = Lost!!!
So we're meeting on Saturday at my house at 1pm. Ann, if you're reading this, I hope you feel good enough to come by; if not, there's always next time. Lily is also apparently busy this weekend, but suggests maybe next weekend, since that's when reading break is. I don't really care either way.
It was kind of a warm day today; I was pleasantly surprised. I'm gonna go into American Apparel during their open call on Friday and see if maybe I can get a job there (they're shelves are always so organized!), since I still haven't gotten a call from that TV thing nor the Kerrisdale veterinary hospital (oh yeah, I applied there too). Sigh...
It was really awesome to see you on Saturday, Chels! You slightly scared me coming out of the closet... haha.
While I was downtown, this Mormon missionary came up to me and started talking to me about stuff. It didn't really bother me (surprisingly), but I really wanted to just debate to him about how his church could invest in the campaign for Prop 8, their views on gays, etc. But no. I really think I should next time. He mentioned how some people follow their religions blindly and don't question what's going on which was kind of ironic because I'm sure there are lots of Mormons who follow their religion by the book and everything is black and white to them. Ugh. I thought it was funny when he asked me how religious I was on a scale from 1 - 10 and I said 1, and he said, "What if I try and raise that to a 5?" Yeah, cuz I'm sure gay + believing in Mormonism is what you guys are all about. Haha Mormon boys are funny sometimes.
Anyhoo, that was my highlight of the day. Hope you're all either staying unsick or getting better (Ann!)...

It was kind of a warm day today; I was pleasantly surprised. I'm gonna go into American Apparel during their open call on Friday and see if maybe I can get a job there (they're shelves are always so organized!), since I still haven't gotten a call from that TV thing nor the Kerrisdale veterinary hospital (oh yeah, I applied there too). Sigh...
It was really awesome to see you on Saturday, Chels! You slightly scared me coming out of the closet... haha.
While I was downtown, this Mormon missionary came up to me and started talking to me about stuff. It didn't really bother me (surprisingly), but I really wanted to just debate to him about how his church could invest in the campaign for Prop 8, their views on gays, etc. But no.

Hello Everyone,
CHels' gift was really nice. Thanks Chels :)
Anyways, I have a midterm on tuesday which is worth 95%.
We can meet this Sat...but the week of 16-20 is reading week for joanne, dan and i (just to remind you guys).
I hope wed goes well because i need to get my alcohol training before applying for a special occasions' license. My partner and I have been waiting for a while to book the training because ubc security is busy.
I found really cute cookies to make. I'll give dan some before he goes and visits you chels so you can have some :)
See you soon.
