oy.. ouch.

So. this is why i'm so dead right now.

Sunday. I'm talking to Derek. he's like come to my house I'm like how? bike? he's like sure. so I bike to his house. takes me roughly an hour. surprisingly I'm not brutal tired. so I'm at his house and there's this colombian guy I've never met, some brian guy I've hung out with twice before, he's weird, and Derek obviously and eventually zack shows up (you met Zack too). so we hang out there for a while and they're trying to hook brian up with a girl.

so we ended up going to this bonfire. I didn't have a hoodie so I was like well frig I"ll grab a blanket and by this time they were all outta the house and I was with them so I ran back to Derek's grabbed the blanket I use (never looked at it. ever) and ran back.

as soon as I get back out to them they're like "Phil why is your blanket covered in multicoloured hearts." and I'm like what? oh. haha. well then.. Derek is this the blanket I use all the time? he's like yup. I'm like oh. ok. so we go to the beach.

oh wow and I just realized I skipped a huge part. pretend this is inserted between "needless to say (...) work" and the part where I started talking about the bonfire.

we went to sobeys and waited for Eric. and played with shopping carts in the empty parking lot. then when Eric showed up they were all screwin' around so I was like whatever so I got into Eric's car and we peeled to Derek's expecting them to come right up. they didn't. they called eric's cell and said "we're in Derek's basement" and Eric being brutally gullible was like oh. how?? and I was just like oh goodness.. Eric just hang up. he's like ok. so he did. so we peeled cause they obviously weren't in his basement. so we went to the blue canoe and grabbed some slushies. then we went to burger king cause it was right there and guess who's inside? Brian Derek colombia and zack.

so I get our burgers too cause eric didn't have anything on him. so yeah.. we do that, Derek was kind of a douchebag and took eric's burger and eric hadn't eaten yet so I gave him mine then Derek took a couple bites outta the burger he took and left it on eric's car. we weren't too happy about that. anyway then we went back to Derek's. (end insert. back to gay blanket)

so we get to the beach and it turns out the bonfire is held by IB kids. not sure you know what those are, but to me they're basically my ex-girlfriend's best friends. so she was there. wasn't too bad we're on good terms. I mean we didn't talk but it wasn't really awkward.

then Dave Pitts (my ex-secretary for student council) says "I'm going skinny dipping!" and we're at the bay of fundy. at night. and it's cold. and I'm like are you serious? and eric's like MAN! I've always wanted to do this! Phil let's do it!

so we do. I ran down in my boxers, got 'em off before I got into the water, got myself underwater before Eric did cause he wimped out right bad haha but he did it eventually and kept my boxers dry. so I get back up to the fire, and zack and colombia and brian are gone. but I didn't notice they were gone before I noticed my clothes weren't there anymore. first I thought derek took them, then he obviously hadn't. so I was like oh. good. so I'm stuck here in my boxers, with my shoes and my tuque. I'm not putting my shoes or tuque on cause it's gross right now. so we stayed around the fire a bit to dry off. then we started walking. they had even taken my effin blanket!

so it was a chilly walk home. I got pretty pissed at Derek for letting them (brian. the kid I didn't know well at all is actually the one who took 'em) and anyway it wasn't pretty. got back to Derek's after like 20 minutes and my clothes and blanket were just kind of sitting outside and they were gone. so it's me Eric and Derek. (by the way Eric, being also french decided he'd walk home in his underwear too. unfortunately for us they were briefs.) so we hung out for a while then Eric went home and Derek and I biked to my house. it was about 12.30 midnight.

we get to my house at like 2am cause Derek's slow, and we go right to bed cause Derek's absolutely beat. 8 or so hours later we're up again and by 1 or so we're gone to go back to derek's cause I got called into work for 5. so it takes us like 2 hours to get there this time cause Derek has no energy and he's not very good at biking I guess. haha and as we get close to Derek's house his pedal breaks. we're like oh. good. and then when we get up the hill to his house I get a flat tire. I'm like oh. great. effin.. eff. my little brother's bike and I've got a flat in it.

so then we hang out a bit then I go to work. I'm in there till like 9.40 and then Derek and andrew are waiting for me outside. they're like let's go make your deposit then we're going to Andrew's to play capture the flag. I'm like uhh.. ok. so we walk up to the bank and I make my deposit then we call Andrew's mom from the irving and she takes like 20 minutes to come pick us up but we get there then we go to where they're playing.

we played some pretty mad games. they played it weird though cause they just had one flag.. anyway. point being I'm a stealth master, a speed demon, and when I run into people running full tilt and they're trying to tag me by jumping in front of me they get blown back like 6 feet ahead of me. THAT was interesting. he got his knee in my thigh and his elbow or shoulder in my chest somehow.. and he was bigger than me.. and it kind of hurt. haha my thigh's still in pain. almost 24 hours later.

anyway. we walk back to Derek's at like 12 something (midnight) and andrew goes home and we get to derek's at like 1 or so and by this time my leg and knee are killing me and I'm good for bed.

bad news, I can only get 5 hours of sleep cause I gotta get up at 6 the next morning. I didn't even hear my alarms but I guess instinct got me and I woke up at 6.06. pretty good for no alarm and being physically and mentally exhausted.

then by 6.45 I'm out the door and headed to lancaster to get picked up to go to moncton for the day. yeah that was fun. I looked like shit. haha I was falling asleep all day. ALL day. anyway at like 7 we get back to SJ and I have to get home somehow so I hitch hike. some guy picks me up. turns out it's my friend's dad I've never met. haha. so I get home.

and that's where the story ends.

I think that's the fixed version. haha this was originally a message to someone.

Woah.

So not like it's been just about 3 months since I've blogged or anything. Definitely not like anything of any kind of importance has really happened in my life in the past three months... actually so much crap has happened. let's see if I can think hard enough to remember the significant things and NOT break my brain! haha. yeah ok I'm feelin' a little giddish. giddy. not giddish. what the crap is giddish. ok. haha here we go. this is going to be long. you'll want to go pee first.

Done? good. now let's see if I can remember.

April: what happened in april.. sweet mother what did happen in april? Musical. I already did that. what else happened. I dunno. I think April I was just.. going crazy doing a bunch of stuff trying to get things organized for who knows what.. I think good enough played a few gigs (for the uninformed good enough is the band in which I sing and play some violin, Derek vihvelin (muh homie. pretty much ultimate homie) plays guitar, ben marmen (muh lil' bro) plays violin and does some vocals and some other random instruments, and Jordan Larsen (also muh homeboy) plays drums! and teaches me vocals cause I forget them! haha) and we didn't do too badly at all. isn't much for April.. haha.

May: I remember may being a crazy sick busy month. I think I was sick for part of it. we played some more gigs, I think the variety show happened then. yes it did! haha yeah that was so much fun I'm going to miss the SJHS stage so much.. mother. Good enough played in that and we did pretty well. apparently Ben and I sound exactly the same when we sing? haha I stopped singing and he started and everyone thought I was still singing but I was playing violin.. haha go figure. we're brothers. I KIND of started studying for exams.. not too much though. haha. I wasn't very good at studying... I'm going to have to fix that by next year.. cause.. I kind of need my grades to be good. haha. 3.7 to keep my scholarships. so yeah. we'll see how that goes. We'll also pretend that's all for may.

June: holy crap. haha. June.. EVERYTHING happened in june. Prom, Prom, Prom, (yeah 3 proms) graduation, uh.. what else happened in june. haha wow well that was depressing. My head's starting to hurt. Let's also pretend that's all for june. haha I suck at this game.

July: so that means now. so that means I give you an update of what's happening.

Work situation? I'm working two jobs right now. Working 8-4.30 for the school board on the grounds crew (mowing and stuff) and then I go to lancaster from 6-9 to the source by circuit city and kind of obviously that's part time. for now. I gave my two weeks at the school board on monday. so next friday is my last day with them. at which point I'll probably start basically full time at the source.. ie. most hours possible. I also have to get all the "E-learning" out of the way so I can get spiffs and commission.. cause otherwise it's just the straight minimum wage. and I didn't leave $8/hour for minimum wage.. haha. I'm still doing training and stuff and they haven't even given me my shirts yet. BUT apparently tomorrow as soon as I finish day two (training days are supposed to be done in 8 hours shifts.. I've been there 9 hours and I'm almost done day 2 AWW YEHHH!! haha) I can hit the sales floor so we'll see how that goes.. hopefully I'll have my friggin shirt by then. haha.

what else what else. oh! haha school board job is more full of drama and bull crap than a gossip-happy bunch of grade 9 girls! it's ridiculous! and they're mostly all old guys too! haha it's ridiculous and I'm glad I'm leaving. haha.


hm. I just got hit with a good wave of "tired" so I think.. I think it's time for you to pee again. and it's almost time for me to eat my pizza. actually no it isn't even in the oven yet. haha I was SO pumped when I found it in the freezer! I'm home alone and I was like YESSS! haha I'm pretty sure my dog was just like wtf? except.. with that dog face.. cause.. she's a dog.

so it's.. 11.22pm and I gotta catch the bus at 6.55 tomorrow morning. that gives me what. just over 7 hours to be at the bus? it takes a half hour to walk so I'm out by 6.10 (yeah nothing wrong with extra time) and I have to pack myself cause I never know if I'm staying the night at someone's house until it happens haha. not this week anyway.

Oh! haha I'm pumped! know why? No you don't cause I've only told like 3 people and you're probably not one of them! just.. just the way the odds work out ok don't get offended. so like I said I was at work until 9 right? haha well. I was like hm. how am i going to get home? because I hadn't talked to Derek all day and I stay there if I have to but I usually like to not just.. show up at his house and be like he. I'm uhh.. can I stay the night? haha he'd prolly say yes but still. so I was like oh! I'll pull a jacques! (my other brother) he's hitch hiked a lot in his life, and he's only.. 19. he's prolly done more hitch hiking than my dad and mom and me and ben and melon and jamie and everyone else I"m related to together. so I did. I went hitch hiking from lancaster mall to grand bay. No one picked me up.

actually that's a lie someone picked me up in the first like.. 10 minutes I guess it would have been. know what's funny though? he thought I was Jacques. :p haha so he stopped cause he thought I was my brother.. I guess I look like him then.. cause.. if I didn't look like jacques he wouldn't have stopped. so yeah we had a pretty good conversation. turns out he lives in grand bay anyway so he was just like yeah no prob man and I was like yussss. haha know what though I think that half of the first 30 or so cars thought I wouldn't see them if they went into the passing lane. even though no one was anywhere near them and the only person there was to pass was me. haha I dunno if they were just like hmm.. maybe he won't see me if I go here... not gonna lie I laughed every time someone did that haha

I'm not going to blog about the good times I've had, just cause it's mostly been good times hanging out with my friends I won't see much of next year at all. especially Eric (also ultimate homie) and Derek. mother. A lot of my free time this summer's been spent with them not gonna lie. haha and it's been good. they're both staying in SJ so they'll keep two thirds of the.. triforce.. musketeers.. I dunno what we want to call us. but we definitely have the most wickedest high five ever. no I'm not telling. just.. watch us when we're all together we're pretty much bound to do it at least once.

Ahhhh. hah. I think I'm done.


I definitely took wayy too long to write that. haha. it's friggin 11.37 now. haha meh.. I'll.. get myself ready for bed. wait. lies. haha I'm waiting for my pizza to be ready. :p so I won't be in bed before like 12.20 I guess.. waevs I'll enjoy quality time with my dog! and my guitar! OH SNAP! GUITAR!

yeah haha guitar's been that instrument I've been wanting to learn since forever but never got around to trying to learn or teach myself or be taught. but yeah guess what I did? I picked it up and a week and a half later (or so) my parents were all GRADUATION PRESENT! and I was like well frig I dunno. oh. guitar? they were like sure! haha it's a tradition in my family now.. ahah the 3 oldest kids have gotten a guitar for their graduation present. I don't know that much yet though.. my learning streak got interrupted by work.. severely. maybe after first year uni I'll release a cd. haha :P yeah right anyway. haha yeah I'm actually done now.

Peace homes. thanks for reading.

my day.

umm. I initially wrote all of this on tori Roberts' wall.. cause she asked me how my day was so I just told her the whole story. haha.

So starts out. I get up at like.. 11. dad leaves at like 1 for new orleans. he's there till next thursday. so I'm like ok. I hadn't showered yet. kind of ate, kind of not. so yeh. I'm on msn. Derek comes on he's like ok man ummm me Zack Graeme my half cousin brian are coming to pick you up ok? so I was like umm.. ok. so he peels of msn and I'm like oh crap. showertime so I grab my shower. when they show up I'm doing dishes in the (wife) beater and he's like ok. man, what you gotta do is put the gun in your belt, put on some aviators, and walk outside (cause only Derek came in). so I did. they laughed. we pulled away and I was like um.. so where's Graeme? they kind of ignored me. I was like ok.. weird. Then, all I hear is...

*knock knock* from the trunk. I'm like oh no you didn't.. haha they had him in the trunk for the whole drive from grand bay to SJHS. at which point (this is the punchline. ready?) Zack popped the trunk in front of everybody waiting outside, Graeme jumps out. then we drive away. everyone's like "wtf??" haha it was hilarious we were all laughing for like 2 minutes.

so yeh. then we go to Dereks, then he gets his wallet we peel on down to canadian (lecrappy) tire. we go in, try to buy some airsoft guns and they're like "you 18?" "no" "sorry man.. can't do it" we're like "crap" so we go to zellers. walk around, play around with the toys, hit each other with the swords, then peel to superstore. then we do absolutely nothing in superstore and peel. Zack's like man I can't drive you guys out east.. so he goes into the seawood parking lot and we spin around in circles (in the car) and notice there are some like.. 8 year old girls just looking at us from up the hill. so we start honking and still doing the circles, and they run away. haha. then we're just like wow.. haha so we pull outta there, and go on the main road. the girls were right there, and then they just peel on back down the hill and run into the woods :P

haha basically the funniest thing ever. so yeh. we do stupid stuff in the car (driving 110 in a 50 zone.. that kind of thing) then zack drops us off and Derek somehow gets his dad to let us take his car. Zack peels cause he's got a date with Kirsten. so yeh. we go out east.

First stop, wal mart. airsoft guns are there, we go in with the olderlooking guy (has a beardish) and it's me and him (derek and andrew are jus' chillin in the lego section) and he's like can I get two of those please? and the angry girl with the messed up face is just like do you have a piece of ID? and he's like no not on me. she's like no. bye! and we're like grrrr. not really. but in our minds. haha. so we go up to Canadian tire. we try something a little different. I got with brian (bearded dude) and show him which guns to buy and then I peel to go find Derek and Andrew (in the hockey stick section. haha) and so we wait a while.

After what seemed like forever, he walks up to the front cash with the guns and we're like SAWEEEEET and we leave. so then Derek's all happy and crap and then Brian's like "I want to go to the mall" and derek's just like "no!" and Andrew's like man. he just bought you a gun. then derek was like "with my money!" and andrew's like "well without him you'd still have your money and no gun." so derek's like "fine." so we go to the mall. completely pointless. but I get a canadian maple donut. so I'm good.

then we peel. we drop Brian off at his house cause he's nervous cause he's the only guy in the car without a gun. haha. so we go to Derek's after that and shoot each other for like.. an hour and a half or so. then we go inside, compare welts, shoot each other from point blank a few times.. then we play some pool. once we got bored of that, we crused on facebook for a few seconds then we (we being me and Andrew) decide we're going to learn to use Derek's numchukas. So Derek teaches us. then Andrew and I decided we'd name ourselves ninjas. haha Pao and Hao. respectively.

Moral of the story: nothing illegal happened. ;)

huzzaa.

wooot. haha. so yeh. long time no for real deal update. I'll do that now.

Musical is in a week and like, 3 days. and we aren't ready. not going to lie. haha we need a loooot of work. but a looooot of work is happening this week.. so we should be good. SHOULD be good. I think some people are going to get cut. cause they just aren't doing anything. well they just aren't putting enough effort into it.

We did my song in front of the school this week. wednesday I think. haha you don't realize how stupid some of the things you do are until you've got people sitting in the seats. but yeah.. I've been tired. I had a week of being sick this past week too.. so sick and tired = not too good but meh. haha I'll live.

I'm tired. haha I can't really think too straight right now. hmmm peace guys.
