My roommate, Ellie, is moving out tomorrow morning. That means it’s me and two guys. I know who’ll be cleaning all the time now. Great.

Procrastination is key
I need, need, NEED to write! I have two creative writing classes at the moment, one with an assignment due tomorrow and another due next week- not to mention the upcoming deadline for the major program! Tonight I need to finish a five page story, though it’s more of an excerpt because I don’t think I could write something that condensed in a non blog-like format. I really ought to...

I’m pretty sure I have the best friends ever. I’m not a mean person, nor do I need to be because they are mean enough to anyone who does anything against me. Even those that don’t deserve it. But oh am I going to deal with the fallout later…

Chantel: I want to learn to burp the alphabet. Jenny doesn't think it's an attractive trait, but I'll have to respectfully disagree.
Jenny: WHY DO PEOPLE LIKE YOU????!!!!
Chantel: My charming personality.
Ryan: belching the alphabet is pure talent
Milica: I'm afraid I have to agree with Jenny..
Laura: it can be done, it's just time consuming lol
Eve: That would be quite amusing

Another recruitment event today… hot chocolate with all the toppings (which are delicious, as I helped with the grocery shopping). In the mood to girl-flirt? Not really. Hasn’t been the most drama free weekend. I thought I left this behind in high school. But the Greek system is like high school sometimes, it makes this insanely large campus a lot smaller. You constantly have mutual...

Space Party
Space Party… enough said. Glowing ice luge, space themed drinks (including Green Death…ugh), and people dressed up as planets, the night sky, trekkies, etc. Worst part of the night: looking after drunk girls  Best part of the night: drunk girl puking on my ex. No, it wasn’t funny at the time. Yes, it’s fucking hilarious now.

My article about Scythia- A Vancouver based Folk...
Here’s what I actually wrote… After walking down a set of stairs and following a long hallway I arrived in the small room that is the lair of Scythia. Although other music could be heard emanating from different rooms, including the repetitive surfer music coming from next door, as soon as the band started playing it was impossible to pay attention to anything else- and not just...

"Scythia cry havoc, let slip the dogs of war"
I can honestly say I’m not a fan of editors, they take whatever piece of work you’ve done and change it into their ideal article that will follow the papers theme as well as sound the way they’d like it to. Unfortunately this results in some minor and some major fuck ups once things have gone to the editor. I often find that I hardly recognize my original article and am left...

The Large Mountain Jew
Ain’t No Mountain Wry Enough
FAST FOOD | MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA
Me: “…and a large Dew.”
Customer: “I’m sorry, did you just call me a Jew?”
Customer’s wife: “But honey, you are a Jew.”
Me: “Oh no, sorry. I meant a large Mountain Dew.”
Customer: “Oh really? Really, I’m flattered but I’ve never been to the mountains.”
Me: “Ah, sorry?”
Customer: *comically bangs his fists against his chest* “I am the large mountain Jew!”
Customer’s wife: * to me* “I am so sorry about him. Honestly, I can’t take him anywhere.”
Me: “Really, it’s fine.”
Customer: “The large mountain Jew goes anywhere he wants to!”

First Post
My recent failed attempt at a relationship made me realize something: being a couple is boring. I used to have the most awesome stories that the girls I lived with would be anxious to hear on a Saturday morning at breakfast, but when dating someone, honestly, what the fuck am I going to say? We went for a badass brunch. Yeah, that’s enough to keep someones attention for more than 30...
