ace of base

they were good wernt they.

"all that she wantss is another baby! shes gone tomorrow boy!"
"its a beautiful life! ohh oh oh oh"
"i saw the sign, it opened up my eyes i saw the sign!"
(hope you guys see the subtle links to my life and the lives of my friends in these lines)

i remember continuously singing a parody of the sign song in grade 5.
it was funny. and kinda dirty but meh

why is my brother so lazy. i feel like his dad cause i have to keep calling him to remind him stuff while im at work. my parents are out of town fishing again. i think it is nerdy, but can foresee me turning into one of those cottage dwellers later in life ahha..

but anyway.

song of choice: jacksoul - somedays

so yeah.
i keep reminding him to stop playing games every single day
tell him to take out the recycling/garbage
tell him to water the plants/grass (which reminds me ill go do it now)
tell him to get better marks/a job/a life
hes a 17 year old kid and cant even do anything himself.
maybe i should rethink my future parenting style.

before i always thought i'd be the cool dad!! the one that is
loved more than the evil mother har har har..
thought the philosophy was:
do anything you'd like but you have to keep your marks up.

dont think thats gona work anymore.
hahaha why are there such hard parts in life throughout.

get good marks in high school -
make mom and dad proud
get into a good university
make mom and dad proud
get good marks in university
get a good job
do well at that job
get a better job

and somewhere in all of that,
find a friend that is funny
develop that friendship
develop it into a relationship
marry the girl
make mom and dad proud
have kids, teach the kids, descipline the kids, love the kids

and the foundation of all of that,
developing faith, understanding it, learning it, living it

song of choice:
rob thomas - ever the same

peameal

is that how you spell it?
well i got FREE breakfast today!!!

so i got into work today at 6:45am again today. sat there for 15 minutes, picked up my pay day cheque! and then journeyed my way up to the kennedy/mcnicoll enbridge yard for FREE BREAKFAST!! yes it was so FREE.

i thought it was gona be some sucky breakfast but then apparently enbridge has a CREW that just goes around toronto to random places such as the eatons center just to make FOOD for people..for FREE! the heck!.. well breakfast was cheese omlette + peameal bacon on a bun (i put 4 on one cause i saw some big dude do it..it was so good!!) and then chopped up hash browns and a bottle of ketchup basically..it was awesome.
then we sat around for an hour and then started work. sat at CHARTWELL for another few hours hahahah doing paperwork. felix went to sleep..what a homie

well yep did work stuff for the day and went to church to do more paperwork. i filled out so many stupid forms today..i think my perpetual middle finger blister on my right hand got at least one milimetre bigger in circumference..but it was funny

stupid anna put on her HEADPHONES although it was broken and connected to NOTHING.. and she was like.."why isnt it working??".. just imagine putting a piece of random crap on your head and asking why it isnt playing music. and then she goes on to say "HEY, this one is working though!".. and YES, you couldve guessed it. THAT was the part that was connected(which fell to the floor).

speaking of stupidness i must post this winston story cause i fear that i will forget it one day.
its actually a 2 part story.

FIRST ONE.
k so we are standing in the line of wendys: me nay and winstone after ball. he smacks nathan on the shoulder and says: (dialogue)

stone: yO! ( with a MADFACE!!!) i called you yesterday
nathan: (with a calm face) yea, and i called you back
stone: yea i was playing ball
nathan: you didnt call me back.
stone: yea i fell asleep ( and continuously nods with a blank face)

HAHAHHAHAHHAHAHsdkjadlkaf oh man classic winstone thats all i have to say

PART 2.
k so nathan and stone are walking into MCBC for ball (as i was already inside)
a little background information: i have dual netherland flags on my car (cause they are so orange and van nistelrooy is on the team)

k so heres the dialogue:

stone: (cockyface, seeing the flags) pft dru's not FRENCH
nathan: (calmface) that's the netherlands, theyre HOLLAND flags
stone: (still cockyface) pft, he's not HOLLISH either
nathan: (laughing hysterically) its dutch, idiot

winstone is cool guy, very big and dominates the bball game!!!

today i got lily to get out of epson to have lunch with me at swiss chalet

Second. on tuesdays i randomly call up anna and nathan and we will have our random singles club meeting. very top secret leaders meeting here. everyone from church is essentially a member of the SINGLES club whether they know about it or not. Except Qtip. She is not allowed to join us.

ok anyway
in other andrew-news, nacho libre is coming out this friday. we must go watch it and laugh at jack black.

ok im going to sleep bye

old.

Old. (post inspired by a recent conversation with a friend)

This word makes my heart pound. Its like a river of stupidness, giddiness and even anger that rushes through me.

Being older. Old times. Old favourites. Old behaviour.
Relatives getting old. Cute kids getting old. Punky brother getting old.
Old groups. Old passtimes. Old inspirations. Old aspirations.

The list obviously goes on and on. I don't even know why I am typing here anymore. I don't tell anyone to visit this and I haven't updated for a few years. But I guess I'm just bored and I can get a little ranting done here without feeling a bit girly by writing it on paper.

Heh.. I'm older now. I'm 22 and I'm just kinda running on a treadmill. Not really getting anywhere but not really caring. I play basketball maybe 3, 4 times a week. played AFC a few years back in the Timothy division. came in first and got our trophies!! we have so many trophies at the church ahhaha we should get a trophy rack!! but anyway, Not very good at ball or anything but it beats running outside. I dont know. I never understood what was so good about running outside. Its so boring ahahha..
but at least in bball you can run after a ball and jump and stuff with more people.

Right now still at utsc. Last year coming up. By then I'll be 23 and starting my REAL LIFE. whoa hold up.
Hmm that doesn't sound very appealing at all. Esspecially from what I've been hearing and seeing. I wonder what God has in store for me. Try not to think about it too much, but I never know when i REALLY want to know my future, or when i really am better off not knowing.

meh. I play my sports and im content.

playing ccsa softball again after the one year ditch. chris doesnt like ccsa much. hes my pastor. he has been ever since i was the punky kid in the family. just chatting with a friend yesterday about all sorts of things. Rev. Chris has really been a blessing to my church and especially to me. I never tell him this because it is a sign of weakness and he will make fun of me. But without him guiding me in Christ, I'd prolly be living a very different life at this point.

Anyway CCSA is fun!! I am too much of a competitive person. Played on our hcefc SAINTS!! for junior ccsa and one year of senior. Also played for DELIVERENCE!! one summer haha..
now i am playing on stupid jons church team. and he doesnt even play on it. but then heiky and nathan aas well as joyce are playing so its all good. dont really know the people yet but hopefully will be well aquainted sometime. oh the church is MCBC Kerygma!!

I've been listening to lots of oldies lately. Makes me smile in real. I am smiling now listening to lauren hill. Cant believe i traded it to heiky for the nelly cd. what was i thinking, GOD!!
its ok air force onessss! Listening to oldies makes me feel like im at the movies, in a different world.
maybe thats why i got hooked to this warcraft game for so long. It takes me from reality and into a different place. Thats why i also love movies. These old audio tracks brings me back to a different time, a different situation, a different mindset and a different person. Is it that I like escaping reality?.

Church. Yeap. Still going strong. Been going since 1990 hahahah.. 16 years. and been baptized for almost 5 years now woo hoo! good times. Oh dear thats most of my life. And I can still say that My life would not be the same without it, and God paving the path which I walk on. I haven't always been walking on the path, but I somehow always find my way back to that narrow road. My friends and family is the explanation for that as well as the almighty magnet that I call God.

I remember back when we first did S.A.L.T at church ahahah. We'd go to church on sundays at like 6 something 7 ahhaha. and chris made us all write sermons and speak it. Was a great experience. I was one of the first fellowship captains!! hahaha mad funny. I hope I can be used to revamp this young adult fellowship at church. Been kinda hanging around the high school fellowship the past few years being a concellor. I still have so much in the tank. I just pray that I can be used fully to my potential. Decided to go to urbana at the end of this year!! was an easy decision . Hope enough of us go.. come on people!! oh yah. hits me again that no one reads this. zing!

and TC!! how can i forget. Tc media 2002, Tc Rec 2004, 2006!
so much to say. but very tired from work. soo..tbc

love this stuff. love serving. love God.

back in the game!! gona end this now. word.
till we meet again.
