Mandy...woke up to the alarm at 6:55 and contemplated whether or not she could go back to sleep and not be late for work.
Mandy...went into the kitchen to get some tea and opened the fridge to it smelling AWFUL.
Mandy...slowly started cleaning out the fridge and found a liquified tomato and cursed the only person in the house that eats tomatoes!
Mandy...decided to attempt retiring her socks again and put on Katie's flats and headed off to work for the day.
Mandy...got a really strange feeling in her head, not a headache but 3 spots that feel really funny, I attempted to put glasses on to see if it would stop..not sure about the outcome of that yet.
Mandy...didn't have time to make a lunch this morning because she was busy cleaning out someone's rotten food so I had to buy my lunch :(
Mandy...is on her lunch break but trying to help Natalie at the same time because the feeling of being overwhelmed sucks...a lot.
Mandy...is really tired of being hassled by a few people constantly so I'll just burn that bridge and have nothing to do with them anymore. I'm okay with this.
Mandy...checks Stellan's blog pretty much hourly to make sure he is okay. She only updates it once a day usually...this means I go back to the same thing over and over again.
Mandy...is really excited that Carly is going to be back tomorrow! I can't wait, I've missed her so much!
Mandy...isn't sure what to have for supper. We have lots of leftovers but a veggie quesadilla sounds pretty appealing to. Maybe with some feta in there. I wonder if that'd be any good.
Mandy...just saw the hottest paramedic ever, and am seriously contemplating faking an injury.
Mandy...wants her tattoo really bad..might have to do it before summer.
Mandy...might give in today and finally get an Ipod...not too sure, I've held out for so long it seems.
Mandy...got a papercut underneath her nail. not good, not good at all.
Mandy...just realized that she no longer has a job where she has to wear a uniform. That means I can buy more clothes and justify it. right??
Mandy..is speechless...
Mandy...had an evening that didn't include updating her status.
It's bed time for this girl.

Summary of March
I'm going to make an effort to update this every day throughout April. And at least if not every day then minimally five days per week. However, I have nothing to post about and I know that most people who read this if not all also have me on facebook so there isn't a huge point in photos but I'm going to post them anyways, because my blog lacks photos and I like to share them sometimes so here goes nothing.
Toward the beginning of March, I took a little trek to Brandon to spend some time with Cassie and Evan and also to spend a few days with my sister. Cass and I painted eggs for Easter while I was there, we didn't do all that well. But she got us to blow out the yolk which is something that I had never done and it was pretty cool...funny and strange to do and sometimes really hard but fun. We were pretty good at it by the end.
I met her baby Sam for the first time and basically fell in love. He is the cutest baby I've ever seen and has the greatest parents. Katie and I were talking the other day and we think that he's going to be a pretty cool kid when he gets older. I can't imagine how fast he is going to grow up. next time I see him he'll be twice the size I bet!!
My sister recently got her horse back and when I was there visiting her she took me out to the ranch to see her. She definitely has a lot of work to do to get her back into shape but it's great that Dariane got her back. She really has a special gift when it comes to horses.
Our St. Patricks day we started our celebration early but Ashley couldn't be there, so she had to drink quick to catch up with us. She chugged many a beers while i worked on a pretty awesome puzzle at her place.
We took about 29 pictures trying to get it so that we were all showing our green drinks, and charlie's green drink too but we didn't succeed, in any of them. This is probably the closest that we got. These girls are pretty sweet. We make a solid team. I'm really going to miss vosters when we are gone for the summer.
We gave Charlie green water, just to make sure that she was in the st. patty's day spirit!!
When I got home from work that day Katie had made me and Megan an awesome green breakfast which was slightly disturbing to eat but delicious. We consumed way too much green food coloring that day though. By the end of it I was convinced that our toxic levels had rose to serious levels.
There's a summary and some pictures to go along with it.
Other tidbits in my life:
I'm currently obsessed with orange mango tea.
The back of my head is pounding and I have no choice but to look at a computer screen all day. I tried to put on glasses to make me feel better.
Carly gets back tomorrow :) I'm so excited for this.
I'm done all my assignments, now just waiting for exams to be over with.
I'm sending my love to Amanda and hoping she does well on her interviews in Toronto.
I really want to finish the puzzle at Ashley's that I was working on.

There's a limit to your Love
I have two assignments due tomorrow. One I am just about done and the other one needs to be five pages and I'm done two of them. So, why do I write this blog you may be asking. Because I am the master at procrastinating. Yesterday I went to far as to watch a bunch of foreign films. I am not a huge fan of those and I really hate reading subtitles...especially when i should really be writing my paper. But it's not Sunday morning and I have the paper open on my desktop and I am ready to go but haven't been able to get started on it. I think Katie and I might go to the museum today...or take a drive to Altona. I'm not sure which one. I'll see what she says when she wakes up. This is all conditional that I'm done at least another page of this paper by the time she wakes up.
I've had a good weekend regardless of the fact that I was kind of a bum and didn't do a whole lot. Friday night Amanda Katie and I went to Red Lobster. Something that we have talked about doing for a long time. We waited about an hour for our table but then the food was just so incredibly worth it because we were insanely hungry. I had lobster and shrimp :) Now to stop spending that money. After that, Katie and I were pretty stuffed and didn't really feel like doing much of anything. But Colin came over and we watched Ironman and then he went to home and we went to bed at midnight...on a Friday night. Lame.
Saturday didn't entail a whole lot. I got up in the morning and Megan and I went for some breakfast. It was pretty delicious. I love not having to make breakfast. Then after that I worked on my paper all day. Then I made Katie and I some pretty delicious supper and then Teddy, Colin, Megan and I all went to the casino!! I lost 20$..but at one point I was up to 50$ and when Katie said cashout I didn't listen and from now on I vow to listen to her all the time. There's a really cool fish tank there, and the whole time I felt like I was on vacation in the states somewhere which was pretty sweet because I feel like I did that a lot during my childhood.
Okay, I should get to this paper. I can only find so many ways to procrastinate and the blanket that I am making for Sam is really calling my name.

Come on get higher
I was over at a friends last night and we made some dinner together and then hung out and watched the biggest loser, had some tea and just chatted. When I was leaving I told her that I was going to go work on Sam's blanket and she was going to read a book and go to bed. She then called us the coolest 21 year olds she knows. I definitely would have to agree whole heartedly with that one. I can no longer put off homework though, it's driving me a little bit crazy. I think that tomorrow I will start. i only work 8:30 until 11:30 so once I am done I will have to get started. A paper and an assignment is really pressing and needs to get done before Monday for sure. Mainly because that's when they are due.
There's a beautiful snowy blizzard out there today and I am definitely looking at it more positively than I would have thought. Well I was walking to the bus getting covered in snow and my shoes getting slighty wet I was thinking, that iw was kind of nice to have one last good snowfall. I mean it could have happened in february that would have been fine too, but no bigs. Katie is also looking at it positively. When I told her there was a giant blizzard she responded with well at least we can wear our mukluks again. Ah I love it when people look at really shitty situations in a positive way.
Carly gets back in a few short days, on the 30th I believe and I'm counting down the days. I haven't seen her since November and I miss her like crazy. I didn't send her weekly updates like I promised and I feel slightly bad, but the weekly updates would have sucked anyways cause there wasn't a whole lot that went on in my life this winter. School and work basically took over. Lame I know but not a big deal as I had no time or money to do much else. Another friend gets back from Guatemala any day now I think. Maybe he could teach me some Spanish. I want to learn so badly.
I know this was a slightly poor blog post but something is better than nothing right.
