Ulluk Avatillu-Sitamallu (Day 24)
Okay. It has been a while.
I have to organize, first. (okay, i did) i think i'm ready to write.. HALOT!!!
It was Friday? Oh yes it was. It was Thursday night actually, the time where it was going to turn Friday.. I went downtown on Thursday with Lucy. Chinatown actually, to go eat at our favorite chinese restaurant. The food is awesome, but that time, I was sooo full that I didn't even have my desert. it was really sad. I wanted to have halot of deserts. But oh well.. We planned to go see a movie after our supper. But something came up! Guess what that was?? Caroline had her contractions.. They were not sure if they were real ones or not.. So I decided to stay around downtown and see if they will go to the hospital. Then I called them a few times and finally, they said they were going to the hospital..
We went to go see one of Lucy's friend, Marin at his work. He was finishing up.. And that was when I decided that I was going to the hospital. SO Lucy and Marin were kind enough to walk with me to the hospital. We kind of took our time. We weren't really sure which way we had to go through. But I finally asked where the frikken Sherbrooke street was and that was where we finally found our way. It took a while for me to go in the hospital.. So we hung around in front of the hospital for a while. Watched Marin doing his jokes with his twisted sense of humor.. Hahaha.. Pretty funny, but it was wrong..
Okay, let's get to the point already Sap! I went in the hospital...FINALLY! I was kind of lost for a bit because that hospital is sooo confusing even though they have signs and directions everywhere. But I am not the only one because I've heard stories that some people lost their way too, but finally found the room.. Few people were going in at the same time, and I just followed them to see if they were going to the elevators and they were. So, I found my way pretty much..
I got there probably at ten.. I was awake the whole night. When I got there, Caroline was probably 2 cm open. It didn't take that long for her to reach 10PM. Even though she was ready 15 minutes to 5AM. Caroline did very well with her delivery. It didn't last more than 10 minutes which was pretty awesomely surprising. So yeah it was the first time I experienced and witnessed a baby delivery or more like baby being born I would say.. haha.. It looked very painful. I felt really really bad for Carrie. I was pretty much quiet the whole time. But I'm happy she made it through okay.
It was also the first time that I became an "arnaqutik". My angusiak was the moment where we had our mixed emotions. He brought some tears, joy and happiness. He brought us a lot of smiles that we exchanged throughout the whole night. When Carrie was ready pushing, she said, "Sapina, you are going to cut the cord!" The nurses were like "what" and then we told them and then they said that they will let me. Cutting the umbilical cord is a traditional Inuit way of becoming an "arnaqutik." That's pretty much how far I can explain what it means.
Josh James was born on April 23, 2010 at 4:49-4:50 AM. He weighs 7 pounds and 1 ounce. His beautiful, healthy and Caroline's pride and joy!
I posted five pics of the night, but I'm going to delete four and keep ONE for the blog..
Other pics can be seen on my facebook.

Ulluk Avatillu-atausirlu (Day 21)
It's been a while that I didn't write much to my blog. I've been going through some "tough" days. Along with a pain on my frikken wisdom tooth. For a while, I didn't feel like writing much. Plus, it's the end of the semester. So, I have a lot of shit to do in three shitty weeks! I don't know what to do, but I know what I have to do. I don't know where to start. It's the time of the year where you just want to drop out and give up just like that. BUT, it's not my style, so I have to finish with the shit I have to do. Yeah, I've been all negative lately and a bit running away from stuff.
I went to the dentist this morning.. (-.-') I missed my only class today because of it. They asked me to go at 10:30, but first I asked if it will take forever. They said that it will take like 10 minutes and I would be able to go to my class. HOWEVER, ofcourse they take their sweet ass time in doing their stuff, so I was late. Now, I might have to do a frikken make up class or stuff like that. I got the Dr.'s note though.. Which is a decent thing that will save me a good reason to be absent in that class... But, I had to hand in my journals today.. But I communicated with my teacher so I will go see her tomorrow... :)
I will have to get my tooth extracted.. and a possibly another one too.. :( FTL!!
I've been a bit antisocial lately. I don't really want to talk with anybody.. I don't want anybody to look at me. For some reason, but I don't know that reason. I just want to block out the world out there... I feel like a real misfit in my own little misfit world.. It feels like I don't belong anywhere.. At times, I feel rejected. Not rejected, but some other word like that. I just wish I could restart this life.. ANYWHOOOOO!
I miss "home". My family.. My friends..
"Look! A cat!!" "Where?" "There!" "Where!?!?" "THERE!" "oh!"

Ulluk Qulillu-Pingasuujurtulu (Day 16)
THE HABS WON THE FIRST PLAYOFF GAME!! OT, sudden death. OMG, I was so nervous. 7 minutes before the first OT was over, Plekanec shoots and he scores!!!!!!!!!!!! In your face Ovie! Like a friend said, "Let's make sure everyone knows whose game they're playing." LoL
Today wasn't a bad day, but wasn't the best.. I think. I've been tired all week. And each and every day (this week) I've had naps. And my sleeping pattern is pretty fucked up. I was assigned a paper AGAIN. And I think I got an idea what I have to do for my little "website". BUT I don't know shit about Dreamweaver. It's sooooo complicating. URGH.
Anyway.. I didn't take a pic AGAIN! (oh, this is like never ending). However, I have a lot of nice pictures. So, I always have a back up. I tweaked the photo, but ended making it as a montage, sorta. I liked finish touch of it. Photoshop has become my thing now. You gotta love it. My picture includes a Polish dude, an Armenian chick and two Inuit chicks: Mike, Nanor, Lu and Van. That is the time where we were going to Chows to eat. We stayed at the restaurant forever. We talked and talked and talked and talked. Finally, we decided to go. Mike, Nan and I were going to the movies after, but it was late so we decided to rent a beautiful movie called "The Blind Side." It was really nice. All of us except for Lucy stayed at our place. It was a fun night, but we stayed up too late. Mike had a class the next day, but Nanor and Vanessa woke him up and bugged him. AND, I was writing stuff on his face with Vanessa's eye liner. I won't post pictures because I respect the dude. There is also a video of him singing O Canada in Inuktitut. You can see it on my facebook profile.. :)
Anyway, I hope you like the pic.. It's the college "kids" chatting away!
PS: GO HABS GO!!!

Ulluk Qulillu-Tallimallu (Day 15)
I'm starting to procrastinate on my blogging!! Also in taking pictures.. Which is pretty..BAD. It's also hard to do so when you are a college student. You don't want to do anything. It's like you are paralyzed when you think about all the things you have to do with very little time. I didn't write much for the past two blogs. I didn't feel like writing for those two days. I was overwhelmed with the homework that I had. Plus, I didn't get very much sleep for those two days that I didn't write much. The lowest hours I've slept was on Sunday night. I slept for only three hours. Due to doing some stupid french homework. AND on Monday night, I had to do 9 journals. I did 6, which I re-wrote and then did 3 more... Only to come to class finding out that YOU HAVE ANOTHER WEEK TO DO THEM!!!!!! My friend and I got pissed. I could've gotten a good night sleep that night. 8\ It's so like NOT FAIR!
Multicultural school, city, country, world and so on. I thought about it and talked with Gail about it. It's amazing how [I] came from a place where there were just "Inuit-Qallunaat" place. Yeah, I think that's just the majority in the north. Because I haven't heard any other race up there. So yeah, I came to a whole new world where there are other cultures. Met people that came from other cultures. Naming a few cultures I know: Inuit, White - English and French, Armenian, German, Polish, Arab - so many kinds (Like Gail said), Italian, Spanish, African, Irish, Philippine, Chinese, Asian, Hindu, Argentina, Americans and so on. Sometimes, I get very interested in one of my friend's cultures, but I get too shy to ask some stuff. I've asked my Armenian friend some of the words in her language, but I forgot. For a simple word like "zoo," it was like two LONG words in her language. It's like it covered the whole alphabet. So yeah, that was my little discussion about the multi cultures at JAC...
My picture of the day.... is of moi for the first time in the history of my blogging. I just had to.. since the playoffs had started. I needed to include something that included me cheering for the HABS. I photoshopped myself to be less of the focal point. I wanted the logo to BE THE focal point. I think it's hip and nice and awesome like hockey. haha. I just hope that the HABS go all the way to the end, because every Montreal Canadien fan is behind them and cheering for them even though they know that they are going to play against THE FRIKKEN CAPITALS!! I know that with courage and some motivation, they can make it. It's going to be hard..... but yeah. GO HABS GO!!! Tomorrow will be the first playoff game. 7:00 PM people.. 7PM.
Anyway, MUCH LOVE!!

Ulluk Qulillu-Marrulu (Day 12)
I'll write as if it was Sunday.. :D
I had an awesome weekend. I went out both nights. Saturday night was the awesomest night I've had since a while.
Woke up late... Stayed at Lucy's until like midnight. We ate, talked, watched movies... My neck hurts like very much.. I mean, it's like really really sore. I kind of danced and kind of trashed.. Fouf is an awesome place to go to.. On Saturdays, there's awesome music and cheap cheap cheap drinks.. I got one kind of beer for one dollar... Talk about awesome!!!
Yeah, Anyway...
Just another college student.
PICTURE. FOR. TODAY!
I took this picture from my balcony. I just saw the color of the tree in the front and looked at the background and found contrast in those trees. I entitled it "the new with the old" for some reasons. It's sounds really.... something. I can't get the word for it. That? because it's like a new colorful tree with the old looking trees in the back... So it's the new with the old thing... haha.. i know, weird, but i loves it! :D

Ulluk Qulillu-Atausirlu (Day 11)
Hmm.. Day 11, already. I'm going to restart this, because I just got more time to do so.. :) because I feel like I have to do this properly!! I just learned that there is some good time required to do this blogging thing.
I stayed at Lucy's for the night. Woke up pretty late. Heidi tried to wake me up at 10 this morning, but I just went right back to bed. I told her to do so, but I didn't even wake up! Sorry Heidi, but thanks!! :D I stayed at Lucy's today until 10 minutes to 3. I tried to catch the 4:03 bus, but I missed it.. I waited for half an hour for the next one. We planned to go to Chinatown for supper, but I got home when it was suppertime. So, we had to cancel our plan, unfortunately. Now, I'm here.. LoL, writing this blog and waiting for my friend's aunt to pick her up. I'm going out again tonight.. It's Saturday!! Fouf is going to put some great loud music tonight. Hehe.
My picture for today is... Precious!! He (I think it's a he, but the name sounds more like a she! *sorry Lucy*). Okay, he is Lucy's cat. I find *clearing throat* him very affectionate! Whenever my hands are visible for the cat, *clearing throat* he comes near me. LoL. But it's the most awesome cat I've seen so far. LoL. Because the last time I've "met" a cat, that cat was the most aggressive cat ever. 8|
It was kind of hard to get a good picture of Lucy's precious. For *clearing throat* he is a black cat, my shutter speed didn't really adjust to the lighting because the subject was dark. But, I managed to get a "decent" one.. :)
Anyway, I hope you have an awesome weekend..

Ulluk Qulik (Day 10)
Woke up early on a Friday.. I usually sleep in until sometime in the afternoon, but I woke up just a few hours before lunchtime. Knowing that I had to meet up with my academic counsellor or helper or as known as Lynda. :D I needed help with my french. It helps me a lot when I see her. I tried seeing my French teacher once to get help, but I didn't really understand her.. She is a french french french person and barely speaks English. So, yeah.. I think you understand. Dalasie called me when I was still in bed, haha. I planned to go see her later in the day.
It was nice seeing some people I knew from home. I saw Caroline and Dalasie. My cousins/relatives/friends. I chilled with them at their transit. We ordered some fast food. Then later we went to the movies but half way through the movie, we had to go because Caroline was tired. It was fun seeing her!! I also can't wait to see the little one she's been carrying for almost 9 months. And please pray for me to be there when the little one is on it's way!! :D
I called Lucy to see where she might be and luckily, she was near where I was so I went to go see her. Then after, we went to a club, fouf. By far my fave place to go to... But I'm going to say that I don't think that I will go there ever again on Fridays. The music sucked!! I don't really like Electro music. It's just like beat beat beat and Lucy told me that she felt like she was in a game, and I agreed with her! haha.. so yeah.. that was the end of my night...
My pictures... It was hard to choose which picture to post.. So I just posted my two favorite ones.. Lucy and Heidi. We were downtown and we were "photoshooting" each other.. I'm sorry Marin is not in one of the pictures, but he was there, too.
I hope you have a wonderful weekend!!
<3

Ulluk Quliungngigartut (Day 9)
DAY NINE!!! ULLUK QULIUNGNGIGARTUT!! JOUR NEUF!!
It's good to have a blog.. I cannot really express myself through talking. I mostly express myself through writing. Today, I called home - my parents and sister. The phone call with my sister was an hour long, it was unbelievable!! That's how I miss my family. I can't wait to be with them. Sometimes, it's hard to be alone here with no family. I am always afraid that I am not good enough of a daughter, sibling or a friend. I always hope that my family and friends know that I really care about them and love them so much it kind of hurts me. I am afraid that I don't express my feelings enough like this. And for those who are away it kind of breaks me that I think that I don't spend a lot of time with them. I'm always scared that I am too self-centered and all that. But I just hope that I at least try to think about others before I think about myself. I have done a lot of things that I wish I didn't do to my close ones and I take them all back. But I know without any thought of thinking twice, I will do them again. That's what I tend to do and for that, I'm truly sorry in advance. But I wish that mostly my siblings know that these things happen within families. I wish they understand that I still love them and care for them. Mostly for my younger siblings, I just hope they aim for a bright future. And I hope that they know that with love, I am there for them. Since I have known that I am considered as being an older sister. I always thought that I had to be the second parent to look out for my younger siblings. Sometimes, without showing it,I tend to get very protective. I really hope that they found a way to get out of the situation from the negatives things that are around them. All I am saying is.. I care about them a lot. It's hard... I wish that I had the power to delete all the negative things in the universe. But I hope they know. Even for me, life is tough. It's tough for everyone on the planet. But every bad thing passes. Kavarnatu nuigaluarpa anigusuuq. Suungujuutuinnaqattata. Nalligusukkunga iluunnasinni.
Okay, I hope that was understandable. I hope you understand how I felt, feel and will always feel. That was my sisterly/daughterly love.. :) I just didn't know how to let that go for ages.. Okay, today.. Is Thursday! I had two classes. I was late for my french study session :(. But I had a media journal due today. I did it half an hour before class. I just wrote how hockey world exists in my world - north and south. And that class always ends an hour before it is suppose to end. Which is always good because the class goes right through lunchtime. So I get my lunch and get ready for my Digital Media class. For my next assignment in Digital Media, I have to make some kind of a website. I don't know what to do yet. But my teacher suggested that I tell some kind of a story that I would tell to my nephew.. That's how awesome she is. I have a few ideas, but they are not concrete yet. But when I finish that assignment, I hope that I will have a way to show it to you, because it's complicated!!
Anyway, I'll jump to the picture topic. Today, I didn't have any ideas of what picture I was going to take. But I walked Lucy to the bus stop and found a nice subject/object. A sign of my school's name or whatever you might call those. I kind of photoshopped it. If you want to see the original photo, I am for sure going to post it up on facebook. The sign is beside the "College MacDonald" bus stop where you can take the 200 and 211 bus.
Enjoy!

I am always afraid that I am not good enough of a daughter, sibling or a friend. I always hope that my family and friends know that I really care about them and love them so much it kind of hurts me. I am afraid that I don't express my feelings enough like this. And for those who are away it kind of breaks me that I think that I don't spend a lot of time with them. I'm always scared that I am too self-centered and all that. But I just hope that I at least try to think about others before I think about myself. I have done a lot of things that I wish I didn't do to my close ones and I take them all back. But I know without any thought of thinking twice, I will do them again. That's what I tend to do and for that, I'm truly sorry in advance. But I wish that mostly my siblings know that these things happen within families. I wish they understand that I still love them and care for them. Mostly for my younger siblings, I just hope they aim for a bright future. And I hope that they know that with love, I am there for them. Since I have known that I am considered as being an older sister. I always thought that I had to be the second parent to look out for my younger siblings. Sometimes, without showing it,I tend to get very protective. I really hope that they found a way to get out of the situation from the negatives things that are around them. All I am saying is.. I care about them a lot. It's hard... I wish that I had the power to delete all the negative things in the universe. But I hope they know. Even for me, life is tough. It's tough for everyone on the planet. But every bad thing passes. Kavarnatu nuigaluarpa anigusuuq. Suungujuutuinnaqattata. Nalligusukkunga iluunnasinni.
Okay, I hope that was understandable. I hope you understand how I felt, feel and will always feel. That was my sisterly/daughterly love.. :) I just didn't know how to let that go for ages.. Okay, today.. Is Thursday! I had two classes. I was late for my french study session :(. But I had a media journal due today. I did it half an hour before class. I just wrote how hockey world exists in my world - north and south. And that class always ends an hour before it is suppose to end. Which is always good because the class goes right through lunchtime. So I get my lunch and get ready for my Digital Media class. For my next assignment in Digital Media, I have to make some kind of a website. I don't know what to do yet. But my teacher suggested that I tell some kind of a story that I would tell to my nephew.. That's how awesome she is. I have a few ideas, but they are not concrete yet. But when I finish that assignment, I hope that I will have a way to show it to you, because it's complicated!!
Anyway, I'll jump to the picture topic. Today, I didn't have any ideas of what picture I was going to take. But I walked Lucy to the bus stop and found a nice subject/object. A sign of my school's name or whatever you might call those. I kind of photoshopped it. If you want to see the original photo, I am for sure going to post it up on facebook. The sign is beside the "College MacDonald" bus stop where you can take the 200 and 211 bus.
Enjoy!

Ulluk Sitamaujurtut (Day 8)
I am sorry, but I missed a day.
I'll just fill you in with my memory of what I think happened on Wednesday.. haha
On Wednesday morning, I have an 8:30 class, and I remember waking up at 8:30.. O_O
I took 2 minutes to think whether it is worth it to go to class late or not. But it was french class, and I spent an hour doing my homework the night before.. so I just went. It was boring as usual and I always spend 1 hour and half with my "wtf" look.. LoL, oh well.. "An inuk girl that speaks English as a second language trying to learn another language.." but i've seen worse.. and I'm not going to get there..
Après classe de français...(LoL) I had a half hour break. I went home to eat something quickly and change to my gym clothes aka sweat pants and baggy Kangiqsualujjuaq team t-shirt :P. Yeah, my next class was gym. and Did you know that I love gym so much that I can't wait until gym right after we have our gym class?? haha I think that gym class was the most fun, intense and fun and intense class ever. I finished my women's doubles tournaments with my partner. And that class, we played with one of the most competitive opponents. It was fun. There was a lot of yelling and laughing during those intense games. We won 4 out of 7 games.. We could've done better.. but that was the outcome.. Oh well..
After gym class.. I had 2 hour break and in those 2 hours.. I had to eat, shower and go to the bank.. And luckily, I had enough time to do all those and was on time for my English class. And my memory is saying stop.. LoL, I don't know why..
Picture, picture, picture.. Photo, photo, photo.. Image, image, image.. Lucy was home.. Sick :(. I was really sad for her. I didn't feel like cooking and I wanted to get something for her so I ordered some food and we both shared it.. Watched some episodes and I fell asleep during the movies.. But before passing out, I remember that I took some pictures on my balcony. I was on my balcony with Vanessa, one of my good friends.
The picture is of the glass that we just left outside. The glass was used to capture the ladybug that invaded my place. There were two actually. The other one looked dead so Lucy flushed it. One quick fact of ladybugs is that they play dead when they think they are in danger, lol. So, I kept them in the glass for days and finally Lucy put the poor thing out. I think the glass is still there. It caught my eye so I took a picture of it. There is a lot of story behind it. :)
So yeah.. That's my Day 8.. Just to fill you in.. Not that great, but.. Oh well.... I had my reasons to miss a day.. but I made it up for you...AGAIN.

Ulluk Sitamaujungngirartut (Day 7)
[Ra] ammalu [Ga]?? (Ra and/or Ga in Inuktitut Syllabics)
I just asked my friend here.. I was looking at my blog title and I got confused of the second word [Inuusiga]. I was wondering if it has to be [InuusiRa] instead. Ra and ga can sound similar but they can sound completely different, too! So I asked my friend, is it [InuusiGa] or [InuusiRa].. We just got confused. I kept prouncing both of them multiple times, but I got very confused. Now, I'm getting confused with every words that end with -ga or -ra.. So yeah.. To all my Inuit friends.. is it [InuusiGa] or [InuusiRa]???? I hope I don't make you confused like I confused myself AND my friend.. I feel pretty bad. I feel like I am losing one of the most important things in my life---Inuktitut.. So goodness mother nature mother tongue mother ------------------------ help me!!
My long weekend has ended. Well, not really, but kind of. Okay, it has ended. Gosh, I wish it didn't.. But the up side is that tomorrow is Wednesday!! and there is gym!! :D I didn't have any classes today! Which was nice for me. I left my place around lunch time and went to the library. I had to watch Slumdog Millionaire for my class. I've watched it before, but I had to re-watch it because I didn't remember things very well. I did that and then I went to the rez for my "counselling" appointment. And I stayed here all day.. I'm still here.. Which is the reason that I don't have a "new" picture.
Today, I took a picture from one of my albums in facebook. I kind of changed things on Splashup Gillian suggested. I didn't do much to the picture because I like it 'original'. Haha :P I just inverted the colors.. I'll show you the original and the enhanced one. :)
The image of the water was taken in Ste-Anne-De-Bellevue.
Anyway, Ciao!! Sap has some work to do!!

Ulluk Pingasuujurtut (Day 6)
It's a beautiful Monday. It's like the first time I say that this semester (I think). Monday's are rather long for me. I have three classes. But Thank Goodness for holidays!
It's Sunny out and windy. This weather is just right for a girl like me who loves winter. Sunny and chilly equals good. :)
I haven't taken the time to take pictures for the past two days. I have so many pictures though. So, for today, I am going to display one of the pictures I've been working on for a while. Yes, I have been working on(photoshopping) so many pictures at once. This one, I just finished recently and I love it. The person who is in the picture loves it, too! Okay, i'll tell you the name of the person.. It's Caroline!! I've known her since ever. She is a good fwend of mine and we used to have those crazy moments together when I was still in high school. And now she is with a bun in the oven.. I can't wait to meet the little one. The little one will bring lots of life in so many ways. and I know that the little will change the world in his/her way.
So, I hope you like my photoshopped picture. I took a quote that goes with the image.. I love it, she loves it and I hope you love it, too!!

Ulluk Tallimat (Day 5)
"Just quiet, not antisocial." (I think)
What day is it today!?!?!? Sunday? Monday? April 4 ALREADY!! I'm still in March.. How unorganized I can be.
Long weekends... Love em, but they are bugging me, LoL. It's only Sunday and I have two more free days. I should be out tonight. However, I'll arrest myself again in here. Only to regret it later. MOREOVER, I have to do some homework, but somewhere in my mind, there is a little voice saying that I should do them later! Talk about procrastination!!
It's Sunday, I think. It's one of those days where you just want to take a plane and take off. Imagining myself to land on the street beside the co-op store. Hehe! I wish that was doable. But then again, there is reality.. What can you do??
I'm going to cheat today.. I didn't take any photos, so I am going to post a picture I've taken before. Two photos actually.. Photos of my two schools, hehe.. You can see the difference in both of them..
Anyway.. I'll stop.. It's Sunday!!
PS: "Why are there bugs in this world?"

Ulluk Sitamat (Day 4)
Homesick, kinda.. That's what you get when you decide to go to school that is 2000 miles far from your family. But, I know that I will be okay and that's what's important.
I woke up today and found myself at Lucy's. I woke up from a phone call. Vanessa was the person who vibrated my phone, LoL. Only to look at the time and it was 2PM. I don't know how and why Lucy and her mom let me sleep until 2!! Haha. If I were to sleep at my mom's, they would wake me up when they are about to eat. I kind of miss that.
So, I was going to go to my place and take a shower and go back to Lucy's for supper. I was walking to the bus stop and watched my bus pass. I MISSED IT!! I checked the time when the next bus would come at and it wasn't until the next half-hour the next bus would come. I waited 15 minutes at the bus stop but gave up because I would be late if I tried going all the way to St-Annes and back to St-Laurent in two hours. So I went back to Lucy's. They are kind enough to have me clean myself up there. :)
I had a good supper there. Sushi was good, I missed it. The desert was awesome too. Strawberries and Oh Henry icecream. Lydia makes great food!! Her big breakfast is like to die for!! :)
After a while, I decided that I would go back to my place. I was going to wait longer to stay, but Heidi was going to the metro anyways so I went with her. My picture for today actually is of her because she is the only one that I took a picture of. She lives with Lucy and Lydia. So, I think that we can call her Lucy's sister. She is funny and says random stuff all the time. I call her "Good Heidi" and "Heidi Card" haha, if you know what I mean.
Okay, I should end this, I have nothing else to add plus my mind is.. GONE.
Bonne nuit!

Ulluk Pingasut (Day 3)
Unbelievably hot day!!
As I woke up in the morning, I look out it's bright. My friend was over for the night and we decided to go have Subways since we got cash cards from KSB. So we had Subways for brunch. And after, we decided that we went for a walk beside the water. It was cool there. I had my short sweats and a t-shirt with my hoody over because my hair was burning!! LoL.
I love going for walks along the water in St-Annes. That's when it's sunny out. It's really awesome there and nice picture to take. I saw some boats passing by and I was really jealous. I love going on boat rides up north. The views great there!!
So I took a few pictures when I was on my walk. There are so many to choose from. I had trouble, but I finally decided. This picture I took was of stairs along the side of the water. As I was walking up those stairs, I just loved the lighting and the shadows on them. Yeah, that's how random my photographic mind is.. :^D
Sorry that I missed a day and I just made it up for you :P. I was out with some of my awesome friends.. I went to the movies with Lucy and watched "Remember Me". That movie is by far, my favorite movie. It's unbelievable, I cried, twice.
Remember Me.

Ulluk Marruk (Day 2)
Ai! Hi! Hello! Bonjour! Bonsoir!(It's night time right now) Hola! Konnichi Wa! (And so on in all your languages.)
My long weekend has started! I have a 5-day weekend. It would have been a 4-day weekend, but my teacher cancelled my only class on Tuesday. I wish I could go home on this long weekend, but I don't have the dough to go. I miss my family. Oh well, I will try to be occupied this weekend. Unlike last weekend where I was lazy.. You have no idea.. I felt bad, LoL.
Week 10 has ended and we have like 5 more weeks of school. Which is pretty awesome, but at the same time, I am wondering where the time has gone to! But still, it's going to be one hell of a month. It's going to be a tough month in terms of school work. I was given an assignment today for Digital Media and I was already going crazy thinking about it. I have to make a web page and I don't know what I am going to do!! But, I know that I will figure it out. :)
I've been starting to think: "Okay, what picture am I going to take today??" since I started this blog. I think of it all the time now. Even when I am doing something and the question pops into my mind like out of no where. For example, I was doing my french quiz, I was trying to write something in french and I got carried away. I went: "Je ne vais... *what picture am I taking today* *and think about it for a while*" and back to my french work.. haha. Talk about distraction! :P
Ok, My picture for today is a picture of a slush!! Lucy was kind enough to buy me one. They put a slush stand again at the corner store. Which means that summer is near!! :S Today was a bit hot for me. And hot weather in the sound doesn't sound too appealing to me. It means sweaty times and a time where you find insects and flies everywhere! I have already started seeing bugs and flies in my apartment and I have been freaking out. I've found lady bugs who I held prisoner for awhile. I found two flies which I got one out, but the other one didn't want to go out. I found one little bug which I smashed with a book, haha. So yeah, I don't like insects. They creep me out!
Okay, back to slush topic. I am actually going to post two photos. One original photo that I took of my topic. And one photoshopped photo because I love making photo montages. Photoshop is one great software!! :D
Slush, slush, slush.. Couche-tard makes one of the best ones in history of ummmmm something! :P
Okay, I hope you like the photoshop picture, haha! :P
Atsunai!!
