merely talk

I had a lot of fun yesterday. I woke up painfully early as usual...but that was the only bad part of the day.

I took my little brother to the ferry. He's starting his first year of University this year, so I thought it might be nice of me to offer him a ride out to the ferry instead of him taking the bus. The offer was appreciated. And in quite a cute way, he shook my hand before he got out of the car. That's my brother everyone.

When I got home I waited around for some lovely girls to arrive at my apartment so we could go shopping!

The shopping was wonderful. I got a new pair of jeans and a really pretty sweater that I've been dreaming of since Wednesday. It was awesome. I was also able to pick up my bridesmaid's dress for Andrea's wedding. It's a lovely colour and quite pretty. I need to get it hemmed cause I'm short, and have the bust taken in slightly. But overall it works.

I really liked everything I was able to get, but the best part was just hanging with some of my girls. I love the bonding that the mall experience inspires. It's a time for bluntness and compliments, as well as gossip. Really a perfect afternoon activity.

I had to run to work for a short shift that night. It really is quite awful that I have that shift on Saturday nights, but there really isn't much I can do about it. And it's short, so I really shouldn't complain.

On my way home, I parked illegally (in a pay parking lot, without the paying) and ran to the bank. I was only in there for maybe two minutes, so their was no way I was paying $3. And it all worked out, because I was neither ticketed or towed. I then rushed home and made myself pretty for the evening.

Evi, Geoff and Joan came over around nine, and we hung around my place for awhile doing the pre-drinking thing. It was a lot of fun. We also tried to decide which club to head to. We were going to go to Crush, but we had an inside source let us know that it sucked ass in there. Bad music, and hardly any people, so we decided to head elsewhere. Sonar was decided upon, and we headed out the door.

After an uneventful bus ride and a bit of lost wondering, we found the club...and the incredibly slow moving line. We waited, and waited and waited. And the line moved once in a half an hour. So we gave up, and headed to the Bread Garden on Granville for cheesecake.

Which in the end was just as good, and a lot of fun. Patrick joined us after he got of work, and then we headed over to my place and just hung out, and chatted. Iain came over soon after we got back and it was really awesome to have so many people I enjoy at my apartment. I haven't really done a lot of entertaining yet, and a lot of people haven't seen the place yet, so I really liked having all those people over.'

Anyway, even though the evening didn't turn out like I expected it was awesome. I got to wear a pretty dress, and lots of makeup and sexy, sexy shoes (which absolutely killed my feet...I was considering amputation for awhile just to stop the pain). Which was really the whole point of the night. And I got to see great people and get out of the house.

So yay!
