Guess what everybody? I'm back in Camrose. Yippee. Seriously, though, I'm genuinely excited to be back and I hate it. I'm never excited to return to Camrose. I mean, Camrose is my new Ponoka. You know, when you live somewhere for a long period of time and after a while you just find it utterly dull. That's Camrose for me. So why am I excited? Well, for starters, I have a snazzy new coat that adds a level of false sophistication to my personality in my subconscious hopes that it makes better eye candy to the ladies or even turn me into an object. I have my hopes.
Another thing is that I'm not harbouring harsh feelings to anyone in particular. It's nice. Sort of like turning over a new leaf but without the useless montage featuring the latest pop singer who sold their soul to the corporate devil or the lame cliches you see in most teen movies nowadays. I feel good. And I mean good in the good sense, not the generic response.
Do I dare say that I am new man? Am I changed so profoundly? Of course not you silly twit. I am simply improved.
So, this new - and hopefully last - semester starts tomorrow bright and early at 10:50. Tuesdays and Thursdays are my English days, nothing but my two English courses. One of the them is Creative Writing, to which I am completely ga-ga for. I think I will post some if not all of the stuff I produce for that class. For bragging rights.
This coming up weekend also sees my possible first ever live performance at Augustana Against Aids' Open Mic this Friday. I was just making my rounds to the friends' houses when I stopped by Tif's and she insisted that I do it. So, I'm in, for the most part. Dan, if you're reading this, email me if you want in. I know it's short notice, I just found out myself.
Well, I really should finish unpacking since this is my home for the next four months.
Cheers!
Update: Sorry Dan, but the Open Mic this Friday has been cancelled. I'll let you know when I'll do one at Scalliwag's, but this one will most likely be moved to sometime next month.

- Quietly cynical, socially despondent, remotely interested. And that's a typical tuesday. I am quite introverted around strangers but I get comfortable fast. I love my movies, my family, my music, and my ideals. I hate fakes, pop music, and mushrooms. Oh, and I'm really a nice guy once you get to know me, if you get to know me.

What songs are you playing? I'm more than happy to join you if you want the extra back up on lead but I'll need at least a day to learn what you want me to play.
