si tu viens éclairer mon ame quand j'en ai besoin

Here is the story of the Very Awesome Weekend.

Friday night: Coffeehouse. Best coffeehouse ever. Performers were all awesome, and a fun time was had by all. Enoch came back among good-natured shouts of "You know you don't go here anymore right?" and "You graduated! Take the hint!" and performed with some others an acoustic version of Toxic by Brittany Spears with a trumpet, a backpack (read: anorexic looking) guitar and Megan Underwood who can sing SO WELL, but nobody told me. Geez Guys. Kirsten and others improved and all was well and AWESOME.
Caitlin Davies and Kirsten then slept over at my house. Kirsten does this a lot, but we had to convince Caitlin Davies because she thought my mom was scary, but she was in fact super nice. Which was good. Caitlin is currently homeless, and her alternate was sleeping on the street, so I'm glad we convinced her to come with us.

Saturday Day: Lay in bed all morning, as did Caitlin while Kirsten dashed off to volunteering. We then watched a lot of Grey's Anatomy until Caitlin took off for downtown.

Saturday Night: SAUNDERS FARM! Fun, Halloween-y themed place with fun stuff like the Barn of Terror, mazes, little things for kiddies, Haunted Hayride, etc. I went with Alex, Kirsten and Geoff, and Geoff drove. Since it was my first out with friends with a youth driver experience, my mom was way freaked and had me call her a lot, but it was ok. Except every time I talked to her, she sounded sketched out, especially when I asked if we could go hang out at Tim Horton's after. But she was good mommy and let me go.
We also saw a funny little show called "Monsters of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Squirrel, which turned out to be pretty funny. And the Haunted Hayride had some new stuff that I hadn't seen, so I got sufficiently scared and clingy (sorry Geoffy). Fun times.

Sunday: Sucks. But that's ok! Because Insight is having its preview for PPO employees and we will be back at Jack Purcell Community Centre which makes me happy. *dance*

Next weekend: SCEC! Students' Council Executive Conference! Bascially: Student Councils from all over Ottawa take over a hotel for the weekend. SO MUCH FUN. I can't wait.

The saddest part of a broken heart isn't the ending so much as the start

So true.

So my original plan was to post about my wonderful weekend of working at Student Life Expo in Toronto all weekend, where I handed out info about safer sex and HPV from the sexualityandu.ca booth. I also semi joined in a bachelor party in a bar and saw Second City. Many good times. Fell in love with Bishops U too.

But instead I had an INCREDIBLY crappy day. Yesterday was Oct 1. That was supposed to be my one year anniversary. My phone sang to me about it. And I was very sad. Why? Because suddenly, I miss Mike again. So, so much. And he's fine. I really, really wish we could get back together. But no.

Insight is down to the crunch. We're pretty much done writing scenes, and now we need to prepare it to perform. Premier is in a couple weeks.
