GUESS WHO NOW OWNS A DIGITAL CAMERA????? That's right, I do. We went and picked it up at lunch, taking an extra hour past the end of lunch...good times. Well, it takes like half an hour to get to the place anyway, so taht's why. And it was great, dad's flash that he ordered had JUST come in. So yeh, apparently his camera was a whole lot more expensive than I initally thought, I must've seen the American price. Plus he got like 2 filters, a giant carrying case, an extra lens cap, a zoom extension, etc. :O I didn't know we were rich enough for all this. And Lori, are you ever gonna put your pics up? Jon (the Irish, not the 1st or 2nd or Baptist or anything. Hahaha...*ahem*) has discovered the wonders of Switchfoot and wants to see the pics from the concert.

FOG!
I love fog. So peaceful and cool. Mmmmhm. Better when you're in it though.
OK, Dave, if you ever read this, which I doubt, I have to talk to you cuz my Dad wants your phone number so he can talk to your rents. He wants to make sure you're not a bad boy or anything. So, unless you are and your parents know it, you have nothing to be afraid of.
Um, ok, onto other news...there is no other news. Except I don't have work again right now. My boss is in a meeting, so I can't go ask for more. Oh well!! It's like, FRIDAY for me cuz I have tomoz AND Friday off. LONG WEEKEND! You guys, I TOTALLY didn't know that school started today. I was babysitting last night for hair-crisis ridden sobbing children (actually, that was only the girl, but I managed to fix the crying in about 2 minutes...maybe I have special talent in the stop crying department. Maybe it's cuz I throw all dignity out the window and do wierd things to make them laugh...HA.) and they said they had school tomorrow! I was in shock. THAT'S why we couldn't go hiking, Jon actually has to WORK! :O This is the first year in 16 that mom and dad don't have to like, bring a child to school on the first day. Carayzeh! And you guys start on Monday...oh dear, what am I gonna do till I leave? You'll all be busy studying and stuff and I'll just like, never see you again. Alas. Perhaps one day I shall pop up at the uni and say hi. Providing that wouldn't be too embarassing for y'all. And providing that I coudl actually find you in the schmozzle. Ok, I'm gonna go now. See yas all! Luv ya! Mwah! :D

Superplum
My hair is so dark, it’s like SUPERPLUM. However, it doesn’t look black like those other two times. Of course, that was cuz those times the dyes were actually shades of black. So, I’m still not sure whether dark coloured hair makes me look worse or better. It was pretty horrid for my passport picture, but then I had lighter hair in the more recent passport pictures and it was still horrid so it must just be me in general that makes things hideous. I still need to take a picture of me in my apparel d’industrie because it’s sexy. Well, some people seem to think it would be anyway. I totally disagree. However, they have also never seen me in person before, so. When I get my digital camera I’ll see what I can do. And I should have it by tomorrow at the latest. Yeehaw! Maybe I’ll use my VISA again. OOoooooooh, good thing I’m stingy or I’d be using my new credit card WAY too much. As is, I’ve only used it on a well-worth-it park pass which was only 5 dollars. And was for a vehicle full of adults, or so we decided from the nature of the pass and the fact that the parks people were on strike. HaHA. So THERE you strike-y people. I’m gonna go look at stuff now, so bye.

ROAR
This is the camera I'm going to buy. Here it roar. You can take awesome action shots cuz it takes four really quick pics and then makes them into one. SO ooorsome.
The Scientist By Coldplay
I know I’ve posted these lyrics before, but this song is just so gorgeous and meaningful that I have to post it again.
Come up to meet you,
tell you I'm sorry
You don't know how lovely you are
I had to find you
Tell you I need you
Tell you I set you apart
Tell me your secrets
And ask me your questions
Oh let's go back to the start
Running in circles
Coming up tails
Heads on a silence apart
Nobody said it was easy
It's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard
Oh take me back to the start
I was just guessing
At numbers and figures
Pulling your puzzles apart
Questions of science
Science and progress
Do not speak as loud as my heart
Tell me you love me
Come back and haunt me
Oh and I rush to the start
Running in circles
Chasing our tails
Coming back as we are
Nobody said it was easy
Oh it's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be so hard
I'm going back to the start
I was thinking about leaving yesterday. How will I survive without you guys? Obviously I will…but. Perhaps it will be balanced out by how much I want to go, but I don’t think being in the awesomest place could possibly balance out being with the awesomest people. And the place will always be there; you guys perhaps will not. But enough is that, I’m going to make myself cry before I even leave. Bye then! :D

Ogden Heights
Hey guys, remember the VERY first (of two) slideshow I made? Remember the last slide? Probably not, but I just looked at it and it was HILARIOUS. I laughed very hard. So guys, you should all download 'Hello'. You can chat on there, and it's like the easiest way EVER to share pics with people (providing they're already on your computer). And it's so awesome, when you type 'heart' or 'love', a heart falls from the picture. Or, if you type 'hearts' about 500 times it sends a steady flow of hearts for at least 5 minutes. Or if you type :( it sends a falling sad face or :)/;) for a falling happy face. Dave and I were fiddling with it for ages, it's so awesome. OH, and if you type 'k', it changes it to 'ok' or 'okay' for you, I don't know how it decides which one cuz it IS rather random. I think. But it is AWESOME and you can send pics in seconds, no waiting any more! No, I am not an advertisement. But my coyote picture worked (down below). I totally knew the photo couldn't have been so horrible to not actually develope when the negative looked so good. You guys, this weekend was awesome. For me anywho. Thank you bajillions. And bajillions more. I have a picture to show you.

In between this picture and the next one there SHOULD be a picture of the coyote. However, although a negative is present the actual photo has vanished and until I figure out how to install the 'scanning from negative' software, it wll be unable to post. And this is Filo. The cokatiel.

Now this; this is the work of unhealthy eating and floating ham in a bag. Along with excessive amounts of toxic meat fumes.
