"...this is a rehearsal for all the empty promises i'll make..."

I was listening to Matt Good's Avalanche album today, and the first track, "Pledge of Allegiance" has been stuck in my head. It's defiently one of my favourite songs, although there aren't many of his songs that I dislike. I like the chimes in "Pledge of Allegiance" too. They sound so pretty.

Today was pretty good. Extremely hot out, but I survived. I went out for coffee and sorbet with Laura this afternoon, and that was enjoyable. I haven't sat down and talked to her one-on-one in a while, and I had fun. We had some good conversation:)

I got Opeth stuff from Darren in the mail today:D Tis sooo coool.

I get to pick up my plane tickets, visa and passport on Monday. I'm stoked. My family's debating whether or not to drop me off in Vancouver, or to drop me off at the QB Airport and let me fly over. The former is easier for them, and cheaper, but I'd have to switch terminals, and my dad isn't too keen on that. My room is so weird right now. I moved all the boxes out and stuff, so it's so empty right now. It's weird. I have a coupe things out still, because my room looks so sad.

Oh I killed my cactus. Fred is now "Ed". There was a smaller cactus and a larger one in the pot, and the smaller one died. I'm not sure how exactly I killed it, but somehow it's gotten squishy and icky and gross. It looks all moldy and weird. I didn't know it was possible to actually kill a cactus. I didn't know I could kill a cactus.

My aunt and grandparents didn't come over today, they're coming over tomorrow. Which is good, cause it gave us an extra day to try and finish the painting. We're repainting the house, and it's taking longer than it was supposed to, thanks to the slacking off of my brother. Meh, life goes on.
