taste of anticipation

i am having the most delicious snack - plain yoghurt, blueberries, and honey. and by snack i mean this will be my dinner. and according to my mom or some program she watched, blueberries are among the five foods you should eat. the others were green tea, red wine, and the other two i have forgotten, so a lot of good that advice will do anyone. i have prescribed a diet of blueberries, green tea, and red wine. that can't be good.

i had a lecture today where i found two of the people rather rude. why is it that some people feel the need to publicly denigrate one of their peers? i have not found a good way to manage such examples of socially hostile behaviour because for reason they seem to get under my skin and stay there. it happened last week when i thought someone was rude to me in front of the class and now it has happened with a classmate.

while i was in this lecture i realised that i had been chewing on my pen, which is a habit i broke a few years ago. but then i started to think about it and realised that the reason my pen was chewed was not because of me but because my dog had been chewing on it once but i didn't want to throw it out because it had great flow of ink (those really inky pens that just gush out? i love those). so all those times i have been upset at mozart for trying to kiss me on the mouth and i just ingested his germs.

at least they are predicting a larger presence of ndps and the bloc. i won't yet admit defeat, but i am a little less worried knowing that there will be a strong presence in parliament from the left.

Mozart is adorable! I know how you love the pens that flow. Let's just hope that whoever is set to run the country after today is as good as reliable as those pens....

at least it is a minority! NDP have there hands full these next couple of years. I am excited to see what happens...thanks to all that voted, it is great to know you all love this country as much as myself and are willing to voice your opinion...

i don't think people should be thanked for voted, i think it should be something we all do for ourselves. not about voicing your opinion so much as participating in a democracy.
