Want to hear something interesting?
I was flicking channels on tv and I came to one and stayed there for long enough so that I can hear and see a femal newscaster say ""Hi and thank" and I switched the cahnnel I know she was going to say "thank you for tunning in." or soemthing to that effect,anyways,I felt this twinge of guilt,and it was real guilt!Like here she is thanking me for watching and I go and not only change the channel but I do it during hear moment of gratitude....it was weird because the feeling lingered.....anyways have you see this person?http://www.ctv.ca/servlet/ArticleNews/idol/CTVShows/1086894837230_12/
I don't mean to sound judgemental,but why are girls attracted to him?how could a straight teenage girls be attracted to him?well,somehow he became a hearthrob...anyways,I can't stand him,his voice is loud,constantly,I mean I haven't watched canadian idol for months but from what I've seen of him he's loud and his makeup is too thick here's a picture of him next to someone else with too much makeup?

Yes,thats him with the horrificly unfunny Barbie-Ben....
But the worst thing is,out here in alberta (his home province,he's from medicine hat) he's on the front of the entertainment section of the newspaper smirking at me as I try to eat my eggs at 5:45 in the morning.Anyways,enough of my Kalan bashing.in all likelihood you'll hear a lot about him in due time......seing as how canada is positivly ENAMOURED with him.
I hate this blog,I don't post news for weeks and it piles up and i suddenly feel as though I owe it to you to tell you everything that's happened in the past 2 months.What am I supposed to do?write out 4 pages of news?I'm so bored just thinking about that much boring literature,I could cry.
I could tell you all about my day-to-day life,when I wake up,when I go home how often I work,anecdotes about dishwashing,colourful dialogue,but i'm not going to.I have a job,I wash dishes at a catering business,I have been for a month,I'm apperantly appriciated there,I could've been promoted but due to my age the insurance for me to drive orders to functions isn't available I needa be 25 at least,Chef Jose asks Gilby if I'm interested in more responsibilty more than once,Gilby says He thinks Jose sees pontential in me.I'll be here for a while,even though Jess and dad are going home.And yesterday I saw "Dogville",an unwatchable movie, but very good.It's still stuck in my head,and I don't excpect it to go away for some time,the dramatic impact of it turned my stomach,something I'd never before excperienced in a movie.It's by the same director as "dancer in the dark",but "Dogville" makes "dancer in the dark" seem like lighthearted musical fluff in comparison...
anyways,have a good weekend and I'll see you when the time comes....

If you have a high-speed connection check this site out.
I found a video clip of natalie gilbert performing the national anthem on "ebaums world".And I couldn't wathc the whole thing because My heart broke for the poor little girl,up there all alone with nothing to hang on to and no one to help her.The video was uder the genre of "hilarious videos" and I didn't think it was funny at all,I just felt like crying.Anyways I searched her name up on the net and came across this NBA page devoted soley to this episode in the blazers history.I think when the crowd joins in,it's one of the most patriotic wonderful things I've ever seen,never before have I seen A group of people so banded together during the national anthem everyone is intent on the little girls through the song without having her shrivel up and dissappear.
Speaking of patriotism,as I grow older I'm starting to realise how much I love manitoba,I know that the mountains are beautiful and the air is so nice here.but I'm starting to realise how much of a nostalgic place manitoba has in my heart.the canola fields,and the dusty horizen,the beating sun and picking peas (as much as I love thinking back to working in the garden,I'd hate doing it again) anyways,yeah,I do love manitoba,in fact I did a "where will you be in your future?" quiz and I actually saw myself working in manitoba in ten years (of course by 20 years i've moved to the states).
But i love canada and alberta is wonderful,too.

Blackbird crowing,in the dead of night
I will break your wings so you can't fly.
Blackbird, die.you were only waiting for this moment to arise..
Black crowing,as i try to sleep.
I'll will pluck your sunken eyes so you can't see.
all day long,
You were only waiting for my eyelids to fall.
Blackbird, die.Blackbird,DIE!
I'll throw a rock at your dark black eyes...
