Rides of a lifetime

10:09am: So yesterday was a super fun day. Slept in until 945am and I only woke up because I had an appointment to get my eyebrows waxed ( the things girls go though to stay pretty). The girl who does my eyebrows is awesome, her name is Tara and I love her. She is always so nice and she loves the color purple, just like me. After the painful experience of waxing my mom and I ran some errands that included going to the library to pick up a book for her and heading to superstore to pick up some sushi for me.
                When we got home my mom tired to take my dog out to pee but since it was raining cats and dogs he just wouldn't budge, it was funny, my mom was calling him to come out but he wouldn't leave the house lol, needless to say mom wasn't impressed so she just gave up. A little while later I ate my sushi and it was soooo good! I mean I love sushi I could eat it all day long. A little while later around 2pm my friend nick sent me a text and asked if I wanted to join him at the fair that was in town for the weekend and of course I said yes. I put some shorts and a T-shirt on and i was out the door. I met up with Nick outside the fair and he showed me where to buy my bracelet. The first ride we went on was the Tilt-a-Whirl.

Tilt-A-Whirl

After the Tilt-a-whirl we went on the spider and since we were the only 2 people on the ride we couldn't sit together because they had to balance out the weight, the spider was fun and exciting, whenever I'm on that ride I always feel like I'm going to fall to my death lol but we both made it off alive. :)

The spider

The spider was followed by the Kamikaze and let me tell you just looking at the ride was scary as fuck and you could just throw up from the sight of it. Nick was trying to convince me to on it but I was hesitant because it went upside down and anyone who knows me knows I don't do upside down. But in the end I relented and we went on, after I was strapped in I started to regret my choice to get on but I powered though the fear. Well, let me tell you this ride is enough to make anyone hurl and more, I keep my eyes closed the whole time because I reasoned that I would be less scared (sorta true). After what seemed like a lifetime of being turned upside down the ride ended and I was still breathing, the operator of the ride came to unstrap us and asked how we liked the ride, i mentioned that I had kept my eyes closed the whole time and he was like "Bitch, you miss the best part" lol, i thought it was pretty funny. 

Kamikaze

After, we decided to take a little break to wait for our friend Lauren who was on her way, we went over to the gym to see if our other friend Kathleen was working (she wasn't) so we went and sat down and waited. While we waited we called out friend Brady and told him to come to the fair, he agreed and would meet us in an hour. Lauren finally arrived so we went back to the fair to go on more rides, the first one we all went a spinning ride (I can't remember the name). Lauren and I sat together while Nick say by himself ( odd numbers (:), in the middle of the ride I was feeling pretty sick and I was trying my hardest not to puke while we were spinning, I made it until the ride ended and before I could get off  I threw up twice on the ground ( don't worry I don't have a picture of that), It was pretty gross though. Brady showed up and we went back on the Tilt-a-whirl and I thought I was feeling good, until we went on the spider again, what a nightmare that was. I ran off the ride to the nearest garbage and threw up twice again and man i was I feeling sick. I spent the rest of the day feeling awful to go on anymore rides but that was ok because Brady stayed with me and even helped me win a stuffed tiger

White Tiger. 

The day at the fair ended with a ride on the Bears, you spin the table in the middle and it makes the bear spin faster.

Cottage adventure

809pm- wow, what a awesome 24 hours. so on monday my bf colin asked me if I wanted to go up to his cottage with his friend Alex and his gf. He picked me up at 1230 on Tuesday, ( he also met my dad for the first time), we got in his truck and started driving but it started raining so we pulled over and took out stuff out and brought it inside the truck until we could buy garbage bags. We went to SuperStore in Halifax and since we didn't want to buy a box of 50 garbage bags when we only needed 5, we took them and shoved them under our shirts ( rebels i know ;p), we were starving so we picked up some sushi ( and yes we did pay for it).

   We drove to pick up Alex and his gf (fyi colin truck only fits 3 people so his gf ended up sitting on Alex's lap the whole way there and back). The cottage is in Mahone Bay which is about 60-90 mins from Halifax so semi road trip, once we got there we ran into Colin's dad who was just finishing up some work on the place, he offered us his car to go into town and get some groceries. While driving we were a little his dad would find the cases of beer in the truck (Colin is still 18) but we reasoned everything would be okay even if he found the beer. Getting back his dad was getting ready to leave and we were about to cook dinner ( we decided to BBQ burgers) and it was yum yum yum!

    After dinner we decided to start on the beer and put on a movie (finding nemo) but the sound wasn't working so we watched it on subtitles while playing Jenga. The movie grew boring so the guys starting playing Mario on the old Nintendo. So this goes on for a few hours and we're all still drinking, talking and having a great time when someone suggested we do POWER HOUR (taking a shot of beer every minute for a hour), I only made 40mins then I started doing shots every 2 mins, but Colin and Alex stuck it out and made an hour. So proud! After that I can't really remember what happened but I woke up with a such a headache, but I guess thats what I deserve (no regrets though), I had some breakfast (cereal) and took a shower, which really made me feel good and started packing my stuff and making sure I didn't forget anything.
Here is what we all drank last night!

    We left around 1130 or so and made a stop at Tim Hortons ( for all non-Canadians Tim Hortons is like a national symbol; Here take a look: Tim Hortons), I got a small hot chocolate and a bottle of water to help curb my hangover. Colin got 2 bagels and gave me one :). We hit the road again and didn't stop again until we got to Alex's house and dropped him off. We then drove back to my house, Colin helped me bring my stuff in and stayed for a few minute but he was happy to see my dog (even gave him part of his cookie) he asked if I could take a picture of my dog and send it to him.

All in all it was a great day/night and I can't wait for more adventures.

Call me, beep me if you wanna reach me

11:16am- Wondering what the title means? Read on. Well, yesterday my boyfriend Colin came over around noon after not seeing him for over a week, but i guess thats what happens when you date someone who travels for work. But it doesn't matter, makes the time we spend together just that more special. So yesterday was a big day, Colin met my mother for the first time, I'm pretty sure she liked him but since I got home at mid-night last night and she was already gone to work when i woke up ill have to wait until lunch time to find out. Colin and I started out talking about everything that has gone on in the past week and it felt really good to talk about because I had been worrying about. See what happen was on Saturday his ex sent me a Facebook message that was not umm, not very nice (understatement of the year) and it really upset so it was good to talk to him about it.

    After that we watched a couple episodes of "Kim Possible"(hence the title name) and while we were not watching all of them (wink wink) it was refreshing just to chill and be happy. We ended up going to Bayers Lake to pick up a trailer for Colin's dad so they can do some remodelling around his house. After that we ended up going to Chapter/Starbucks where we both had smoothies and walked around looking at books, Colin ended up buying a Family Tree book where it provides pages to record your family history; it was pretty neat.

   After Chapters we drove back to my house so i could pick up a jacket and off we were to his house and i was going to meet his parents for the first time, and while I was nervous Colin reassured me that everything was going to be fine and i had nothing to worry about (he was right). When we got there his sister (who I had already met) and his dad were already eating so after I was introduced we got plates and joined them in the dining room. His dad was awesome, really friendly, nice and funny. After dinner, the guys decided that they were going to take the trailer to go get rocks ( yes, you read that correctly), so me and Aletha stayed behind to do dishes, then it was time to just chill out on the couch and watch Tv. We watched "The Mentalist" and "CSI Miami, and then Colin and I went up to his room to chill. He drove me home around 11pm.

Quickie

526pm- well, today was a rainy day and rainy days mean staying inside and watching mind numbing tv. Today it was cycle 13 of America's next top model while the first 3 seasons of kim possible downloaded. Such a productive day! haha. Tomorrow ill be spending the day with Colin, which is good because i haven't seen him in over a week ( who knew long distance relationships were this hard?) and by long distance i mean he lives like 40 mins away. Should be an interesting day, might meet his parents (they were not there last time). Hopefully we get a chance to talk about some things that have been happening in the past few days. In other news i just got back from Hot yoga and man was it a workout, i don't think i've ever sweated that much in my life but it felt really good and i enjoy going.

   Not much has been happening, went out with my friend Brady Sunday night, I was really glad to see him b/c i haven't seen him since he left school ( he finished his exams before me). We walked down to second lake and took the path all the way to the road( it was a long path), it was also a little scary because it was starting to get dark and there was no source of light to guide us. But we made it out alive and then went to get slushies at Needs. All in all it was a great night!!  

Well, time to hit the showers

Update soon
