      Bonjour mon amis. The last little while has been tres interesting. The last little while of school went fine. Friday was our written exam. I got the highest mark in the class, being 98%! Yay! Happiness! So after the exam, I got Chris to drive me to the skytrain and then I got home at like four, cause the ferry left late. Anywho, so I got home and went straight to the bank, and the woman there was a total bitch and wouldn't finish my loan blah blah blah... so I dunno, we worked something out temporarily, and I was supposed to go in there earlier this week and change it, but I've been to lazy. As usual. Anyways, sooo after that, Mike took me out IN MY NEW CAR, and attempted to teach me how to drive standard. He was only somewhat successful. But, stubborn me, I drove around the rest of the night with Phil, and we had some chattings. Next morning, Kayley was visiting as well, so we hung out and spent terrible sums of money on CD's. Yay! I got the Skillet CD!
      Ok, enough boring stuff. So because I am a self proclaimed dumbass, I decided that yes, my driving was adequate enough for me to drive back to the mainland. Bad idea. I only stalled like once every... half hour or so. Heh... Mebbe. Um, so yea, back on the ferry, Brody and I were gonna hang out, so I had to drive through greater Van, all the way to Richmond. Oh my sweet Jesus. I got completely lost, and was like two or three hours late hahaha. But it was all good. We found a piercing place and Brody got his eyebrow pierced, which is very sexay. We walked around downtown, ate some terrible Subway, and suprisingly I didn't have a ticket when we got back to the car. We watched Candyman that night, which was terrible. Yes. End of story. Drove home good and late and only got lost like twice. I was so proud.
      Practiced on Sunday at school. Brad and Chris got to see my mad driving skills. (which are terrible... like everything else) Um, I think it was Sunday night that Brad and I went to see Dark water. It is a terrible movie. Don't see it. Wow, a lot of things are terrible. You know what else is terrible? I was texting Brad and he's like, let's see a movie, and when he picked me up, he told me he thought he had been talking to someone else the entire time until right before he picked me up. So that was a little uncomfortable. Thanks B-rad, you assmunch. But all was alright. I mean, I know I wasn't the hot date he was expecting, but I can dream. No, we had martinis haha, and saw the movie. Good times! Monday morning rolls around and it's exam day! I did two exams in the morning... my first one, I messed up by giving an unconsious baby backblows... not a good idea, but I caught myself, so the examiner let me off. Um, second scenario, I thought it went well, but I actually failed it as I later found out. Didn't roll the already strapped down, in the ambulance patient, before I gave him glucagel, so I failed. Yeaah. Failed! Um, third one went well. I did it with the other examiner and he like passed me in ten minutes, even though I fucked everything up on it pretty badly. So overall, I failed, but it's ok. Almost everyone who had my examiner failed as well, and we all have remdials next week in Van.
      So, half of us were pretty pissed off... so we went to the pub to get smashed... good idea! I was the second worst off, but I made up for it by getting completely shitfaced, and passing out on the table. From what I have gathered from everyone, Laurence and Brad took me home, and apparently I was still consious and talking, although I don't remember anything. I told them where I lived and so we three stumbled home. I like must have confessed my undying devotion to Brad, because the last thing I remember hearing is, "Tasha, I'm gay." Wow... I know how to pick em! Hahaha, that was funny. But yeah, woke up the next morning with puke all over ALL of my clothes, which were all in a pile on the floor. Um, writing all over my arms, head, stomach. Things such as, "I love Brody." Wow, I wonder who wrote that. Laurence, you geek. I'm sure Brad was only responsible for the squiggles on my face. I'm gonna kill you fuckers. But yea, I was like, wow. I'm not even hung over. Uh, yea, lovely mess in the bathroom. I must have tried to take out my contacts, cause I found them all dried up on the counter. Wow, crazy night I guess. Can't wait to show my face at the JI in August. Hahaha, good times.
      So anyways, Brody calls me up that morning and is like, "are you ready for Warped." And me, being the sport that I am, say yes, and start... getting out of my pukey clothes. So, on the skytrain, manage to figure out what bus to take, get to UBC, meet Brody, stash our stuff in a locker, and off to Warped! It was great. We saw Hawthorne Height, Senses Fail, Billy Talent, and My Chemical Romance, among others, but those were the highlights. The guy from Senses Fail was a total pervert. "Who wants a mustache ride after the show?!" Ewww, shiver. I bought an awesome Billy Talent tee-shirt, and ran around in my bathing suit top all day. Brody must have roasted cause he was wearing black pants and a black long sleeved shirt dumbfuck. Hahaha, just kidding Brody hehe. But no, we got so sunburnt. By the time we realized it, it was too late to do anything about it. Billy Talent and MCR were comin' up soon, and I was right there in the pit getting body slammed by these huge dudes, and yeah, wow, my burrrns. This one guy ran around randomly punching people in the stomach. That was only slightly painful. But overall, it was excellent! My Chemical Romance was totally the best there. I love Gerard. J'taime vous, Gerard! Bang bang bang! Uh, yeah, it was like just after nine when we got out of there. We got something to drink and sat in a park for like three hours, then went downtown and crashed. All sunburned and extremely uncomfortable. But good times were had by all. Freakin' talking automated McDonalds trashcan. "Thank you for feeding me!"
      Wednesday, I got all packed up, got home around nine, hung out with Phil. And what have I done since then? Well Phil and I went job hunting today. Dropped off at the Bay, Sears, and will fax to Eddie Bauer, which is opening at Woodgrove. Lounged around in Janelle's pool yesterday. Watched Jurassic Park 2 with Phil tonight. Oh, had a campfire with Janelle, Crysta, Alex, Chelsea, and Phil last night. You can go see the pics of those on the site. Poisonous gasses, flaming crabs, a good night as usual. I think I've covered everything in enough detail. Well the things that you need to know at least... mwahahha! Back to Van next week for remedials!
Brody is my Donnie.
