last wknd....bonfire till wee hours of morning, beautiful chats with friends that made me realise the richness and depth that comes with truly giving yourself to people.

if you can't choose...always drink beer before wine and never the other way around.

then sun we were off to the park...sun, good food, and frisbee. after being thrown into the lake about 5 times, and a small incident with a cream cake, we were off home.

been working for the past 2 weeks for a friend of mine...internet research and database stuff. if ya need to find a drum/music store in great britian...i'm your girl.

booked my flights to canada...d day is june 30th. the reality of what i'm leaving is beginning to sink in. with only a few weeks to go i'm trying to drink in every moment with these guys who i've grown to love so much over the past five years.

cate and i are off to scotland with my tent, a map, and lots of chocolate to celebrate the end of an era and pray in the next. think the official plan(according to brez)is to cause some canadian havoc in a small quiet village. guess we'll just drive till we run out of land. britian is kind of like a cruise ship in that way...you can't escape...everywhere you run there is water. kinda freaks me out when i think about it too long.

set up my tent yesterday in the lounge. people don't do this enough i'm convinced.

poo na na's on a wednesday night is wicked! it's brazilian night with proper brazilian music, capoeira, and a lot of bum shaking. very good exercise.

song of the week...the best deceptions, dashboard confessional

-chuck...in answer to your question...i think you'll find that the cat would not actually hit the ground....but hover, inches above it. buttered bread has powerful effects when mixed with the feline variety.

went to this amazing breakdancing battle last night. manchester v leeds. manchester won without a doubt. was in a club i'd not been to before and the vibe in there was amazing.

i'm a little bored these days. trying to max out the time here in uk before i jet off. it's hard to motivate yourself to do something when you feel caught between two worlds...leaving this one and preparing to enter another. but i'm really grateful for the space and time to hang out with people who i'm going to miss when i'm gone.

trying my skills at the guitar. frustrated with my lack of speed. have mastered a rendition of phoebe's 'smelly cat', but had hoped for more at this stage.

being realistic and yet free to dream and hope wildly for the future without hinderence.... if anyone has mastered this please enlighten me.

things i want to do before i leave here?... a beach in the north of scotland, west coast of ireland, london, and one last bbq in the garden till the sun comes up.

went to see stoney lacuna play a gig in manchester last wednesday. look out for them...
