wha?

ok, so chris complained, or at the very least, commented, that i don't update my blog enough. then i said, well, i don't really have that much to blog about. i mean, 'school...work...sleep...' gets a little boring after, well, not very long. so he suggested i make something up! chris actually told me to post a story about how i'd run over a pedestrian. but no one would believe that i had done that, right? i truly hope that's the case! but, this did make me think of this 'get to know people' game that i've played before, so i'll do a version of that instead. basically, you have to read the list of stuff and in the comments, tell me which ones you think are true, or not true. and whoever gets the most answers right gets a prize (unless your name is sarah, because you have a major advantage over everyone and i would feel wrong giving you a prize for that :P)
ready?? here we go....duhn duhn duhn.

1) i have never been downhill skiing
2) until i was 22, i had never lived off of the north shore
3) i have never gone to the hospital except when i was born
4) my favorite starbucks drink is a zebra mocha (and of late, make that a soy zebra mocha!)
5) in elementary school, i played flute but gave up
6) i buy my socks at please mum
7) i made honor roll every year of highschool
8) i speak 3 languages fluently (english, french, and spanish)
9) i have never seen the full 'star wars' trilogy
10)one of my friend's dads is in one of my favorite movies

all righty, so, take a stab at it. true or false, true or false, la la la!!! heh heh heh.
and now, onto a truly fascinating topic...the weather!! now, normally, this is right up there with 'how 'bout those Cancuks?' as far as kinda lame conversation topics (don't get me wrong, i love hockey and the Canucks, but, still...) but the weather here has been insane lately! monsoon rains one day, sunny the next, more monsoon rains and wind the next. i mean, really. i've been leaving the house with my umbrella, sunglasses, toque and mitts recently. it's a little ridiculous, n'est-ce pas? mais oui! global warming...sheesh. we're really doing ourselves in here. speaking of global warming and environmental thingies, if you go to this website, you can calculate your own ecological footprint. it's pretty cool. my mom made my brother do it because apparently he takes too long in the shower. anyway, it's http://www.earthday.net/footprint/index.asp. my ecological footprint is about 6.7, although i kinda guessed on some of the questions. i'm not completely sure about the size of my house or the mileage on the car. i am lower than the 8.8 average of canada, though, which is good, i guess. a start! but still pretty bad. sigh.
anyway, so, that was i guess a better post than usual. heh heh. have a happy day! :)
