more sports

i joined a co-ed indoor soccer team. my first game is next monday and i’m so excited. wheee!

i do have to say, i’m a little scared since I’ve never played indoor before and i think the probability of me running into a wall are quite high.

A story about "festive special"

festive special

by swiss chalet

the festive special is the greatest thing around the holiday season for those who are:

1. low on cash (like university students)


2. sick of eating with paper plates, plastic utensils, OR sick of eating canned foods/instant foods


3. like their choice of white or dark meat and a selection of sides


4. like free chocolates

even though me and my friends have been out of university for a couple of years (though #1 still applies) going to swiss chalet around the holidays is a tradition we always keep. i’m all excited about swiss chalet on the 27th with the girls. yay!

end of the year blues

every year i get a little bit homesick for toronto – i go home for the holidays and i never want to get on the plane to come back.

toronto will always be my home – my friends, my family, all the memories of my childhood are there.

one of these days i’ll move back – just not sure when.

A story about "venti soy triple gingerbread latte half syrup no whipped cream"

its a little long winded to order but meets my needs:

• venti – because i commute from seattle to redmond and need something for the drive


• soy – because i’m lactose intolerant


• triple – because i need the caffeine and the extra flavour


• gingerbread – because its the holidays!


• half syrup – because they don’t make sugar free gingerbread syrup and its a bit too sweet


• no whipped cream – lactose again plus its so fatty!

i ate a mushroom

and it was disgusting.

i didn’t mean to eat the mushroom, I was at Lola for dinner last night with friends. The restaurant was dimly lit and thought it was a eggplant kebab.

blech. it was not.

ok, mushrooms re-tried, still on the hate list.

yay!

two things i learned

1. don’t forget to buy cups. because even if you have over 20 glasses and 20 wine glasses, its pretty ghetto to have your guests bust into the mugs.

2. have an exit plan so that when guests start to spill red wine on your white carpet, you can a. immediately spray carpet cleaner on it and b. subtly have some good friends help shepherd people out of your place over to some bar.
