dad wanted to come with me to get fabric downtown…he wants me to make him a cover for his tool box…its going to be way snazzy…i bought red leatherette and some asain dude was trying to fight me for it…but i bought the whole roll so he got none…shows him whos boss…


black and white pictures always make everything look super snaz…if i took colour pictures these would look really boring…dad was driving and i was shooting…


my dads name is hard to pronounce…well only for non italian speaking peeps…its Tarcisio – but you say the ‘ci’ like ‘chi’…so its said tarCHIsio…if that makes any sense…i call him tarch or tarchi instead of dad…its more classy…


my moms name is Emanuela…just the way it sounds…i call her Eman…you know after the modle – david bowies wife…Iman…just spelled differently…our parentals gave us simple names becuase no one knew how to say theirs when they grew up…except people think my name is daniel and not danielle….


tonight i am going to alexis’ concert at the marine club…i was suppost to put an ad for it on here but no one who reads this blog lives here…but if your interested click HERE and scroll down until you see the bizzare poster…word

MUSICSoft Cell – Tainted Love (its going to be alexis’ wedding song)

i’ll paint the words a simple wish…from peace of mind and happiness…

i am in love…

i have found the one i am meant to be with…

i went shopping with matt yesterday and saw the love of my life…just sitting there…not paying attention to anyone or anything…just fuzzy, and pink, and plaid…i clutched my heart and gasped at the beauty….

all i have to pay is $150 and those amazing burberry ear muffs are mine…

they looked so delicate upon my flowing locks covering my dainty ears…

and for $225 why not also get the matching cashmere fringe scraf…orgasmic….i am so in love with burberry …

matt went to value village and found so much stuff…including Pringle of Scotland sweaters AND a Burberry shirt….SO jealous…its the fashionist in me…

a few photos from our day…
downtown…where else would us class act people shop???
matt and i dressed classy as to make all the people think we were rich when we went into the expensive store…matt wanted to pose like he was a nerd…i’m a perv…get use to it…notice the fake burberry purse i am using – purchesed that baby in new york…i love it to death…i bought earings and music….sooo good…and yes i had to endulge myslef with some bruce cockburn…NERD ALERT – also on the list…Beck, Grandaddy, Oasis…and the free Seeds CDahhh good tunage for the road…matthew good…

oh star wars…you gave us such a crazy crazy night…

all started out good …went to the local supermarket and picked up a good portion of bulk candy and salsa – movie musts – then what would turn out to be not enough alcoholic beverages…and popped in the first star wars pretty early (i should make it clear that we watched 4,5,6 – my cousins do not support the first three)…i remembered a bit about from it but not much and alexis had to constantly explain it to me because i was NOT paying attention…

the first movie went on pretty smoothly…i – knowing nothing mind you – told alexis that i thought leia should seduce darth…she laughed her head off…well whatever…i would have seduced him…

emily came home in time for the second one and suggested a star wars drinking game since we had all the booze…we were down…so she went on the net and found us a nifty game with antics such as…

Drink when:

- someone has a bad feeling about this
- it’s their only hope
- luke whines
- people kiss
- leia insults someone
- han brags about the millennium falcon
- twice if its in hyper drive

jake and i also had a beer chugging contest which was really not smart…because we had eaten so much crap…and then drinking beer fast…dear god that was really really gross…

then emily’s other half and his brother came over and watched it…i was half passed out on the floor so i dont remember much of the movie…i was also getting bored so i figured i would stick things up jakes shorts…then he grabbed a handful of gummies and stuck it down my shirt…so i grab a hand full and put them in his pants…we were both on the floor hysterical for like and hour…we were smacking eachother with an empty pop bottle…
after the movie we were too drunk and tired to watch the third one so we put that off until the next morning…jake and peeps played the piano and sang really really loudly…alexis and i comp’ed it up…we were cooler…

then peeps left and alexis went to bed so jake, kari, and i went on my msn and talked to people…mikey was up so we webcamed with him…and then voiced it up…we sang but he didn’t…well except for the sponge bob songs…ehh…then we sent him lots of pictures of jake so hes going to blog about him soon…HE BETTER…

mikey left at about quarter to 4 – his time – so we went to bed…well more like we all passed out in his parents room because it was right there…we woke up at 7:30 ish because jake had to go pee…and so we stayed up…and boy did we feel gross…that was kinda the theme this weekend…

alexis got up shortly their after and we all showered – together – NOT…gross…geezz…alexis
made tea and we cleaned up our big mess…

eventually we got our acts together and sat down for the final star wars movie…because that was the point of the weekend, although it seemed that we almost forgot that point…and aside from alexis’ critizim of like every scene…i have to admit…that i actually enjoyed them…like i would like to watch them again by myself with out alcohol and people talking every five seconds just so that i can know whats going on more…but you know…it wasn’t all that bad…final say – hans solo is SO HOT, and luke is the biggest dork ever…but i would rather do him then the emperor…unlike alexis

after that we went to the mall to visit kari at work – she left earlier – and we ate sandwiches…they were good…

alexis and i drove into town and i went home…and i thought it would only be proper if i sat down and watched spaceballs…so i did…the perfect ending…

more pictures you say??? – here you go

p.s. photo albums on the side are being set up properly…for your easy access into my life

and how…

yes so the FOX concert last night was interesting…alexis and her friends were meeting me on the skytrain…except the train was broken…so they took a while…

once we got down town we went for dollar a slice pizza…which of course was soooo good…

ummmm pizza…we figured we’d eat there because we thought that the Commodore food would be righteous expensive…

however…when we got to the commodore and saw the food menus, it was actually well priced! we were surprised, so alexis and i split a cajun chicken burger and ceaser salad…omg it was drool worthy…

although the pizza place sells you a huge slice of pizza, the place itself is pretty sketchy…and sketchy is how i like my restaurant… it had rad video games in the back…

ahhh…finally at the show…we grabbed some couches in the upper back section…we couldn’t really see anything but at least we were comfortable…except for the stench that came out of one of the couched…it was smelly
yea…i dont know what happened here…

some big older mocho somewhat hot (only by my standards) guys came and sat on the couches by us…then one guy stood up and unscrewed the light blub so that the corner we were in was pitch black from the rest of the place…not that there really was any light in their…but still

wow…look at all the people in front of us…yea…

so this is me and alexis listing to bands….

and ten minutes later…look who has fallen asleep…at a rock concert for that matter…

my attempt to take pictures of the bands from far away and in darknes…

the bands included…faber, the left, the turn, art of dying, and rally car…
with special guests – the trews

faber won the battle of the bands and got some recording deal-o or something…

the trews were the only good band there…but then again they were the only REAL band there

we got a free cd on the way out that had all the bands on there and some specail shows from the fox…it was pretty rad…13 bucks for a show and a free cd…

it was a late night…especially with work the next day…but damn it was fun…and way better then school!!!!

i think i must be the only 20 year old who hasn’t seen these movies…honestly i have never really wanted too…except for princess laya and the infamous gold bikini…

i have seen parts of the first, and parts of the third but never seen them all in their entierty…

i figured that it would be good if i saw them all one day so when people are talking about them i would know what the heck is going on…and when i watch spaceballs i will get half the jokes…

this weekend alexis’ parents are away so we are having another movie weekend…there are 6 of us who are all going to party it and watch all three star wars in one night…you better believe we are pulling an all nighter!!

another late night trip to save on foods to stock up on junk food…going to booze it up a little so that star wars is a little more interetsing then it seems to be – i am clearly not a sci-fi fan – and spending the rest of the night – if there is any left – gossiping about people we know…

tonight my ‘thank god school is over’ party starts…alexis got tickets to the commodore for the FOX’s Seed Party – pretty much battle of the bands – and i hear that the lead singer of Nickleback is going to be there…IM SO EXCITED!!! not really…i cant stand them…

ah well it should be an interesting night…and pictures will be taken of course…

thursday night concert, friday night movie, a saturday filled with hangovers and attempts at sewing…and a sunday filled with shopping downtown and fancy dinners with my fake boyfriend…i can’t wait!

and finally….it is all over!

tonight’s events were like a scene right out of a movie…

i spent the majority of the day in an ‘i just don’t give a shit’ attitude and did less then approved studying…i laid in bed, painted my toe nails the colour of your cold black heart (not really, just always wanted to say that), and forced myself to read one chapter…

as time grew closer to me leaving the house my poor ass attitude gave way to some fear…what if i really should have studied and now will do bad on this test???

i hopped on the bus, down in the dumps…hair pulled back in a tight bun, jacket zipped up, glasses on…sounds of radioheads ok computer ringing through my head...really that didn’t help in making me feel better but rather added to the stress and depression…

i wait in the hall…its like 4000 degrees in there…waiting for my doom of 81 multiple choice – sounds easy but she likes to test you on the crap she didn’t teach you but is apparently somewhere in the textbook where you didn’t read…


i get the test and i go at it…i actually know a lot of the answers on it…SURPRISINGLY!!!! this is retarded…i’m almost done and the people around me are like half way…i wait for others to hand in their test first and then i do…

i leave the room feeling like a million bucks (and watch how shitty i feel when i get the results back and really i did not do so well)

i practically skip out of the building…take off my jacket, let my hair down as it blows all sexy in the wind, stick on my hot sunglasses, and grove to some rad limblifter…i was floating…practically skipping to the bus stop…dear god

i am such a dork

it took like seven years for the damn pictures to up load…gezzz…at least they are rad…i was bored and it was hot and i couldn’t sleep…i was also being consumed by moskitos at the time…damn bugs…i have like 20 bites on my legs…and i think i have one on the tip of my nose…bastards
i actually went to work today…haha…but only for 4 hours…it was pretty lame…some guys where in auditing the cafe shops and they were kind of creepy…they kept wispering to echother in these fruit filled accents…bizzare…they creeped me out – out wait i already said that…i ignored them
i have to study…gawd its been the story of my life…whatever, one more final and then its all over…for now…mother fruit cakes…you know when you have so much to do but you keep putting it off and then you get mad at yourself for putting it off…yea thats where im at
im starting to panic
i want it to rain…there has been enough sun and a nice day of rain would be much appriciated…yea rain can be depressing and all…but on a day where i get to spend the entire time studing it would actually help out and not make me insainly jealous of the sunniness outside…i love good hair days…
