Mibba, it's been a while and I don't know what to say.In October I got swirled up into this whirl wind romance with this guy I thought was pretty swell. We were having a great time until he got re-involved with his fraternity.I didn't know what to say when I started having flashbacks to an event I'd experienced at a party in a city far away.I didn't know what to say every time he told me he felt...

Hi Mibba,It's been a while! Of course, like always, there's tonnes of reasons for my disappearance, but I just wanted to say 'hi' as we all say goodbye to the year, and channel all of happy memories of the last 365 days. I'll be posting a gratitude journal sooner than later for the year :)IMPORTANT SIDE NOTE: I was scrolling through my newsfeed and I was so confused on who everyone was, I think a...

Oh my goooooosh Mibba! It's been so long, but I'm bag in an area with an internet conenction, and I think I'm ready to be hanging around again.BUT THERE'S A BOY...dun dunn duhhhhIt started like a week and a half ago. So at the end of last term (April) I was at the end of term party for my program and I met this cute guy, we'll call him Steve. Steve had a girlfriend. He has a scruffy beard, usually...

Hey Friends!I just got back from a two week long course in Northern Ontario where I was creating a geologic map, and tracing a small gold deposit. There were about 90 people on the trip, and it started out awesome. I was so excited to be out in the field with my friends! That would be until the third day when I was walking across a rockface and slipped down the cleavage plane. And broke my ankle.I...

How often do you guys re-write things? At the moment, I want to re-write everything, and if I had time, I might. But it's so god damn hard.The plot stays mostly the same, the architecture of the story is different. I want a different title, a different layout, a few different personalities, different scenes...It's almost like scrapping the whole thing.I've only re-written one story before,...

ALRIGHT SO! It was Shopper's Day, so I got myself 200$ in free make-up, it was also my birthday yesterday so I picked up my free Sephora gift and some stuff my friend and sister gave me (MAC lipstick, they're the best)This Shopper's Haul was so much harder than the last one. Mostly because I was dealing with things that were so expensive, I knew I needed concealer, but then I was left to deal with...

Oh my gosh guys. I'm so sorry. I've received like a number of messages about reading things, and story help, and just stuff, and I'm sorry I haven't followed through, and that I haven't posted anything and that I'm just generally awful right now. I will go back and comment on everything eventually.As soon as I get through this next week I'll be okay. I'm just so exhausted from last week, I was...

I know this is a bit late, but I've been waaaaaay too busy with school and I feel like this is important!So International Women's Day happened a few weeks back which is awesome, because women are awesome. I spent that day at this Geology Convention that was happening in downtown Toronto (PDAC). It's a pretty big thing, they take up the whole convention centre and it goes on for the week....

Random babbling: startYou have no idea how much stress I've been feelin' for the last month Mibba. No fuckin' idea. Last week was reading week, and while I should have been been productive and working on all the crap due between Monday and today, I spend most of it asleep / recouperating.I feel so relaxed now, it's unreal. I'm basically a mound of gelatin. And I just realized how nasty that...

SPOILERSI just finished watching all of the new PLL episodes, and I can't stop laughing. Maybe I've gotten some of this wrong, but I still think it's the funniest thing in the world.Five years after graduating highschool (the average undergrad degree is 4 years) and they 4/5 girls have a job and are suuuuuper rich. I mean I know their parents were always loaded, but I find this whole thing...

I should probably be studying for my exam tomorrow, or the one on Thursday, or the one on Friday, or doing one of my eight assignments due this week....but here's a list of things I did instead :P1. Get super drunk2. Spend waaaay too long on this layout3. Make chicken parmesan4. Bitch about how I don't want to do work5. Play animal crossing. A lot.6. Facetime my sister7. Get drunk again and...

Alex totally inspired me to post my makeup hall with her amaze-balls load she posted the other day. See it here. Mine isn't nearly as big, but it cost me 0$!In Canada we have Shopper's Drugmart, I say that because I don't think the US has one, I've never seen it at least. ANYWAYS Shopper's lets you collect points and eventually cash them in. So I just cashed in 220$ of points. I am a competitive...

Well tomorrow is my last full day left in Sudbury before I head south to Toronto for Christmas. I'll stay there at my parents place until I head further south for school in January.Sudbury's been a weird experience for me. I've had a lot of alone time and I've eaten it by doing fuck-all, going on random dates, drinking way too much, netflixing, and doing absolutely no writing. Anyways, Tinder was...

NANO 2K15I'm currently so far behind! I've only go 1,500 words, and we're seven days into the month. fuck! I've just been so tired and so sore from kickboxing and weight training :/BUT! I'm ready now. I have at least the few chapters thought out now and all I have to do is write! So I went to the bathroom, ordered a pizza, gotten some pop, and in a bit I'll probably chug a bottle of wine!BUT I...

Someone get a shovel, I'm digging up the past. My October has been a bit different then everyone else's.My grandmother lived in the hospital. She moved in there the day after I was born, and never got to leave. She had MS, but she died of pneumonia on December 22, 2006. We didn't have Christmas that year.My grandmother's birthday was Halloween, so each year instead of going trick or treating or...
