May Two Four Weekend!

For any of you who aren’t Canadian and have NO idea what the May Two Four (24) weekend is, it’s the Victoria Long Weekend. It’s been nicknamed Two Four (at least in my town lol) and usually involves tons of underage drinking and parties. Victoria Day usually falls on the weekend that has the 24th on it, so that’s how it got its name. (I think anyway. Correct me if I’m wrong!)

So how am I spending this long weekend? Indoors for one. Why you ask? a) It’s supose to be raining like ALL weekend so I’m not leaving the house and getting wet unless I have to and b) I have a ton and a half of homework! This is what I get for procrastinating in ISP. Lesson 16 was due for two of my courses today and I’m only on Lesson 12. I’ve got to do as much as possible this weekend AND do my unit case study for law. Why you ask? Well… my high school band is leaving on the 21st until the 23rd to Toronto to go and see the Opera and goto Wonderland. Then on the 25th it’s my birthday! (19th btw) and Frankly, I don’t exactly feel like doing any homework on my birthday. Especially since I plan on drinking, since 19 is the legal age in Ontario.

I was catching up on some of my Despair commenting and I followed a link from one of the sites I was supose to be commenting on to this site: Neonglow.net I looked at the layout and fell in love with it. I’m pretty confident that my graphic skills are good enough to pull off something like that. I just need to figure out the coding, which shouldn’t be hard. I really just need to figure the footer out and I should be good. I love the simplicity of the design. It’s the something I’ve been looking for. The style of layout that you can easily change just by different colours. I lOVE it!

EDIT: New Layout, what do you guys think?

EDIT 2: I have two lesson’s (12 and 13) done for ISP Course A and I’m half way done lesson 12 for ISP Course B! Woot! lol I doubt I’m going to get lessons 12-15 done for two courses and my law homework done this weekend, but I’m going to be doing as much as humanly possible!




Spring Cleaning

Does anyone else hate spring cleaning? I do, and I’m only doing my room. It’s like 2:30 and I’ve been at this since 10 am. I’ve still got to put away some more clothes, clean my bed, vacuum, dust in a few more places, make my bed. Thankfully I’m ordering pizza tonight for dinner so I don’t have to make it (plus I forgot to take the sole out of the freezer last night too lol)

Band trip is coming up later this month on the 21st-23rd which is like 2 days from my birthday (25th!) and I’ll be 19. I can’t wait! Back to work for me I guess!

PS! New layout! You guys like? It’s a premade so if you like the links on the sidebar to where you can get it!




March Break!

For those of you who have asked, I was accepted into the History program at the University of Guelph.

I finally got around to updating the layout! I had found a layout style that I liked and I put it up for a while to see how much I did like it. I used the same coding and stuff but changed the images and the colours to make more of a spring layout. Hope you guys like! I also added some little icons before the date and categories etc.

 I’m really excited for March Break. My mom and I are going to visit the campus for the campus days next week and then I get to spend a few days with my dad before going home. I’m so stocked! Usually I don’t see my Dad until the summer xD
