Homesick? Who..me?

So every morning at 9:55 we have this morning announcement thing. So they speak for about 2 minutes about something, and then they play a song. I'm extremely confused over the whole matter and I hope someone explains it to me soon.

In other news, Meagan, yes, Meagan, misses Qualicum. WHAT! You didn't think it was possible? yeah well I'm homesick. I miss the ocean, and people and other things like the mountains, and waking up in the morning and not having to remember 'oh crap, how do I say that in Finnish?' and stuff. The weather isn't helping either. It's been gross and rainy and not exactly summer nor August. What I wouldn't give for summer and warm weather. I mean seriously, I'm wearing a turtleneck sweater right now. And pants. And I'm freezing my ass off. Which is not exactly August weather. AAHH!! I miss the lack of things to do in Qualicum, I miss just walking around town at night buying Monster (Oh, I miss that too) and doing absolutely nothing but running into people that I knew or could SPEAK to. It's ...I dunno. Maybe I just need to find something to do. I mean, knitting? That's pretty darn fun right now. Ah, I dunno. i miss being able to read asign and understand what it meant and not have to guess. I miss being able to communicate with people. I miss so much. The ocean is a biggie. And Friends. I miss you all so much, and I love you tons. big Huggs all around. I miss music. I miss band SO MUCH! I'm in the band thing here, but it's so different. It's ..well think of the band we threw together for the grad ceremony. It's like THAT, but with 7 guitarists, a pianist, a bass guitarist, me on flute (which is an interesting thing) and 5 people singing. We're doing stuff like 'Let it be' a nightwish song called 'walking on the air' or something like that, and a couple other tunes like that. It's just...I dunno. WEIRD. D-ROC and Stewie, you're genuinely missed. Those kids damn well better appreciate you or perhaps I might explain to them what they really could be having as an 'orchestra'. Seriously. Someone referred to it as an 'orchestra' . I didn't exactly think that was a swell use of the word. I miss hanging out with friends and parties. I haven't done anything like that here since language camp and I miss just hanging out with people and listening to decent music.

In other OTHER news, Finland won the hockey game last night. WOOT!!! Canada? Who's that? Oh right, I'm watching that game at 2 am tomorrow morning because it's just not the same watching the replay. Ugh, That means I'll be uber tired, but oh well.

Yeah. Sorry about the whining, but I miss stuff right now. Ack.
