to do

I've got to learn how to blog again. Every time I come over here and try to write something down it ends up getting saved as a draft, never to see the light of day. Bummer for you, hey? The thing is that I just haven't had any good life changes that are that worth writing about. I spend my money on practical things like rent and contact lenses (430 bucks!). Pete and I argue about who swept the floor last and whose clothes make up the majority of the laundry pile (mine). Looks who's a grown up. But I'm gonna start practicing. We'll see how it goes.

There are actually a lot of things to write about. I've been here and there this summer doing this and that. I went to Edmonton for my cousin's wedding and Baba's 90th birthday. I went again for the MS Bike Tour. I started rebuilding my relationship with Meston. I got registered for bootcamp against my will and dropped out halfway through, but lied to everyone about it. That was a bad one. I started this daily budgeting log so that I can stop being absolutely ridiculous in my spending habits. I discovered lamb curry, which is my dream come true. And I got a new camera!!

Things like that.
Stay tuned.

peruuu

peru is a go! i still have to pay some fees (read: earn the money required to pay the fees) but the uvic course list came up and all my courses are in the spring, so my fall is free for machu picchu adventures! i am more excited and scared than i am willing to let on. pete bought me a really nice bag for my birthday (once of those gigantic hardcore trekking backpacks) and everything is becoming real and holy shit i am going to be in peru for two months by myself and the girl who sold us the backpack said that cusco is totally sketchy and all her friends got robbed there! oh gosh. but i am tough and streetwise. aha! i'm from sherwood park, what do i know about streetsmarts? but i'm excited. very very very.
