So basically, I just don't feel like posting anything all that telling. I have so many thoughts running through my head, it's actually a very dangerous place to hang out, and this last little bit has been so full of random and strange and confusing and a bunch of other stuff...but I don't want to talk about any of it yet. When I do, I will...till then I will continue to distract myself (and you) with useless information.
ENJOY :)

GOT A BOYFRIEND/GIRLFRIEND - 15 (Yup, went out with Justin for 3 whole weeks in grade 10...he broke up with me at Bentley's house party, on her front step, while all our other friends were in the basement...and the boys all know it was going to happen like days before it did...it was brutal!!!)
RODE THE CITY BUS - 13 (took it home from school the first time I went to Erin's house...it was scary too...clearly I'm not a big fan of public transit...way too many creepers on the bus)
WENT TO A CONCERT - 14 (Puff Daddy and the Family...I went with like 8 girls from the dance studio...it was pretty fun...we were in our seats dancing like the entire time...oh, and we couldn't figure out what the guys behind us were smoking...we thought they were crazy)
This week has been so much fun...I did everything and nothing...It was great!
As promised, a picture of Leonard and Joey working on Lumpy the Snowman (November 26). It doesn't look like much, but it was really impressive...or something like that...the other kids in the complex turned it into an igloo and than used it as a slide...so really it was all good.
Ummm, this week was a movie week if there ever was one. I think I watched a movie at Joey and Leonard's place like every night. ~ Chirstmas Cartoon Movies on Sunday (before the power went out) ~ The Life Aquatic on Monday (The Family Stone with Kels when I got home) ~ Land of the Dead on Tuesday ~ Layer Cake on Wednesday ~ The Jacket on Thursday A little extreme perhaps, but it really was great...something about watching movies when its all cold and snowy outside....mhmm. Wednesday after the movie I did go to Earl's to pick up my sister, and I ended up having a beer or two with her, her boyfriend and his buddies, so its not like I have turned into that crazy person who never leaves the house and lives in front of the TV.....at least not yet anyways....
What else...Wednesday I went baking crazy and baked like 6 dozen cookies...lots and lots of Double Chocolate Chip and a batch of Peanut Butter...I did burn some/most of them, but for my first attempt, they were pretty yummy.
Friday night I went to Joey and Leonard's (again), and all the boys were there. We played FoosBall and drank and (Leonard and I) danced. We pretty much did all the fun things you do when you are with your bestest friends. There was even a snowball fight, and of course plenty of good conversation. Lindsay and Sass showed up later on too...that's how awesome Friday night was.
Saturday I went out for lunch with mom. We did a little bit of Christmas shopping and than the two of us went to the Casino. Oh, and ummm....I WON $105!!! and on a silly nickel 'slut machine' too. After I claimed my winnings, and this is like the only time I have ever won anything in a Casino...we all know I sure didn't win a thing in Vegas, I went out to dinner for a friend's fiancee's son's birthday. I know eh?? And, this is the truth, I knew just the one, singular person there (my friend Henry from AK), and even him, I don't know all that well. Not really sure how this all happened, but it turned into an all night meet and greet...I met a whole bunch of new and pretty random people. At like midnight, me and all of these said people, who I have now known for all of like 5 hours, end up going dancing at Fever (very cool place by the way, had a bit of an Ozone feel to it, I liked it), than we all went to some after party...and yeah, I didn't get home till like 4:30 in the morning. The best part...this is all so very unlike me....really, when have I ever gone off with people I don't even know, and than end up hanging out with them all night??? ummm NEVER, that's when...I sooo mixed things up...three cheers for doing things you never normally do...and meeting some super cool people along the way.
I think that's pretty much it...I have a whole bunch of Christmas parties and events over the next few weeks, so that should keep me pretty busy and out of trouble...or something like that. And...perhaps a 'Year in Review' post is needed...we'll see....

Seems kinda fitting...the first half anyways....
I have been living off RedBull, Mocha's, and other caffeinated beverages since Saturday afternoon...oh and cheese...and crackers...can't forget those...so forgive this entry...prehaps I will fix it later....prolly not....
Never Fails....Rememberance Day long weekend and I am camping.
Well, I guess not "CampingCamping"...I mean we only went to the trailers and only for the night...but it was still good times in the semi-outdoors.
I was the last one to arrive (what else is new???) at like 7:30, making pretty good time too, it only took me an hour to get there and considering it was raining, Go Van-Driving Kim!!!
Leonard, Jeff, Joey, and Colby were all chilling at Wes's trailer, kinda taking it easy, having a quiet beer, enjoying the fire, waiting for Buchan and Sass to finish up at Buchan's trailer and header over to Wes's. Once Buchan and Sass got to Wes's, the night got kicked into high gear. It was time for the TEAM SHOTGUN CHALLENGE!!! and oh my, what an exciting challenge it was. We would all be dancing, talking, enjoying the fire and/or the poring rain/bitter cold, when, every 10 minutes for 2 hours, on Colby's command (GOOOOOO!!!!!) all of us would stop what we were doing and Jeff, Joey, and Buchan would shotgun a beer, than we would all resume our activity (and for the rest of us, our more lesiurely-paced drinking). After the 13th beer the boys had completed the challenge that was set out for them...not gonna lie, this display of strength and courage was most impressive to watch.
Camping Highlights and Quotes ~ "Here Kim, dance with this knife and I'll take a picture." --- Jeff ~ "GOOOOOOO!!!!!!" ---Colby ~ "How are we gonna fit all these cans in that shopping bag???" ~ "Beer, you didn't stand a chance." ~ "Where am I going to sleep???" ~ Security Guard Conversation (Jeff and I really had to pee, so we went to the ladies room...ummmm...anyways, this takes place right outside the bathroom door, in the pouring rain no less. Yup, we got in trouble.) ---- "You kids sure were in there for a long time and you were making too much noise. You know we shut'er down early here. You were in there for 45 minutes bangin' around!!!" "Sorry sir, we just had to pee and it only took us 5 minutes. We were really quiet too." " Where are you staying???" "We don't know." "If you don't know, than you're gonna have to leave." "Oh, we're staying at the Buchan-Brunskill's (the only trailers with people??? the trailers making all the noise???)." "Ohhhh, the Brunskill's eh???" ---- and Jeff and I take this opportunity to escape. The best part, and what makes this retardedly funny, is that the security guard had no idea who the Buchan's were, but he knew exactly who the Brunskill's were. Sorry Wes, but your mom and dad will totally hear about this one, probably something along the lines of 'when your son and his friends drink...and oh the noise they make....kept me up till midnight....' ~ "Hey, are you gonna barf???" ~ "2 minutes!!!" --- Buchan ~ "Let's go to the trampolines!!!" ~ "Hurry!!! less than 60 seconds!!!" ~ "How the hell do I turn off the light in the Excursion???" ~ "Did you put make-up on??? You're cheeks are so pink." ~ "I'll go get the parka...it's warm." ~ "This is the worst music ever!!!" ~ "Do I have time to go the bathroom???" "You better hurry, you only have 6 minutes!!!" ~ "Dance in a circle while waving your hands...it'll warm you up for sure." ~ "We're not in a fucking parade!!!" ~ "How the hell were you trying to park???" ~ "Let's hit up the Burger King." ~ "All night, I was waiting for this song." ~ "Hey, are you gonna barf NOW???"
