Well I found my binder of Bayorith, and I translated my whole myspace. Now any poor unsuspecting bystander will have no idea what the heck is going on. Mostly people will just say 'oooh Kelsey' in the manner of Kendra. I'm not sure the myspace will ever get translated back...because...hahaha whoo knows. I like it in Bayorith anyway.
Tomorrow is my last day at home! Wow.
I'm hardly packed. I've got my winter clothes out of my room, some of my summer stuff, and some of my books. Oh, and all my shoes are all in a bag. The pile of shoes in the bag comes up past my knee...but that's besides the point. I'm not sure I'm going to have room for all my stuff in Northwest. Oh well..I can always take stuff back home. Oh boy...I hope my roommate doesn't mind me having tons of stuff.
I really wonder who she's going to be. I'm going to be living with some girl who I have never met for at least half of next year. I wonder what she's like. I hope she's musical. I hope she's crazy and I hope she's so much like me. I hope we form a crazy friendship and we become tighter than Anne and Diana. I've never really given this much thought before. Haha..I hope she's an indie rocker and wants to hang out with me and be friends, not just share space.
I also hope I have time to finish my huge stack of mending. It shouldn't take too long to get done..but I really hope I can find the time to do it soon, otherwise none of it will get touched probably until Chistmas.
Now I've got chocolate all over my teeth and I need to go brush them. I hate that feeling...right after you eat something sticky and your teeth are all gross...
Anyway, that's basically the update for the next while.

The Good Life - Weezer |

Well...I think I finally realize that I'm going to miss my siblings when I'm gone. It'll be nice to have some space...but it will be weird not having them around all the time. I don't even remember a time in my life when they weren't always around.
It's true...they'll only be five minutes away...
A lot of ajusting will have to be done in the next few weeks. I'm really excited to have my minivan to myself. It's going to cost a lot of money...but it'll be a lot less than everyone else has to pay. But I'm definitely SUPER poor.
I want to learn classical guitar. And to take up violin again...except my violin is the most frusterating instrument on the face of the earth. Strings that break all the time during tuning and pegs that pop out in the middle of playing hardly encourage the desire to practice. They should make instruments that stay in tune forever.
Or maybe I should just find a new violin.
Except...
...for the lack of money aspect in my life.
But I suspect you're all tired of hearing about this.
I mean, honestly...it's all I ever talk about.
So, for a change of pace:
What Kelsey-Anne Would Like To Do Next Summer:
1. Go back to Texas
2. Go to Poland
3. Work at Camp
4. Make money
5. Go back to London
6. Hang out in Victoria
7. Make more friends.
8. Lose no more friends.
9. Make lots of clothes.
10. Do my Grade 10 Piano exam....?
I think the most likely options are to go back to Texas and hang out in Victoria. Maybe I'll make lots of clothes...but most likely I'll just buy lots at various thrift stores. I'd love to go to Poland, but the people I'd stay with haven't emailed me back yet. I could just go and stay some random place...but it costs a lot to fly to Warsaw.
So....
I really want to go back to Texas. It's a sort of home to me, and I haven't seen the people there for SO long. Probably for more than 10 years. Well...I've seen SOME of them...but not all...I wish I could just step back in time. Or that everyone would be exactly the same as when I left...but that's definitely impossible. I know we won't have the same kind of community as we had all living in the same complex and doing everything together. I think that's why I like Texas so much: all I remember of it is amazing fellowship and quality friends. Oh...that and delicious food. Food and fellowship go well together. Hey, it says so in the Bible too. Somewhere in Acts 2.
SO It's reeeeally late.
I'm out.

I'm so tired.
Right now all I can do is pray, because there's nothing I can do in a situation that I don't know how I came to. I'm sure it's been said a million times, but the only reason this happened was because I told the truth.
The truth mind you. Only the complete and absolute.
I wouldn't have done anything differently.
The summer is nearly over and I'm utterly spent. I didn't spend enough time with God this summer: I'm drained. I've done so much, and I've tried to do so much of it on my own. I finally understand what it means to abide in God.
I wish I understood sooner.
There are many people who I've left, and I have no idea when I'm going to see them again. I've been dreading this, and now in combination with being physically and mentally exhausted it's taking over my life.
It's almost over.
Soon I'll be home and I'll once again be in a routine.
It will be so good to fall back into the rhythm of things.
..................
On a lighter note, I learned to skimboard today. I picked blackberries, ate an apple from a tree, went on a walk, ate at a cafe, caught up with a friend, wandered through a massive garden, and browsed a homerun roadside pottery shop.
A good day was had by all.

Wow...I neglected updating the entire time I was at camp.
I'm at my cousin's house in Victoria now. Pretty exciting. I might get to see Stephen Eng. I'm super SUPER excited about that.
Church tomorrow!
Excited about that too!

I can't understand why it's so parchingly, headacheingly, lethargy-inducingly hot outside.
It doesn't make sense.
We live in the lower mainland, people.
I blame Global Warming.
Or el nino.
Or fearsome weather pirates.
One good note about today...
When i went to paint my nails they dried instantly.
None of this waiting forever doing nothing until they dried.
It was almost beautiful.
Another note about today...
My family's gone.
To California.
Without me.
I can't say I envy them the heat.
If it's this hot here, I can't imagine California.
But the fact of the matter is, tonight I have to figure out what to do with myself.
And how to eat.
The only things in my fridge/cupboards are odds and ends.
I'm going to camp tomorrow and that's exciting.
I get to see KENDRA.
And everyone else.
These are exciting times.
I think I'll go watch Harry Potter with my sister's friend.

So i bought new plants. All the ones I had were light pink and white, so I figured I had better get a bluish one and a yellow one. Besides, pot mums filter toxic chemicals out of the air. I'm going to have to get some more plants to do that too so my poor mum's not all by itself fighting a war against my sister's hairspray.
Another note, they're all in pretty pots now. Beforehand it was all about the ugly paper they come in at the store. Finally they're looking nice.
I'm still working out the details of how I'm transporting them all to camp. Somehow it will work. I want a beautiful cabin. Although...they're sooo shady inside. Oh well I'll find a way.
Last night we had a birthday party for my mom: her actual birthday happens when they're all in California without me.
It was my choice...but...I'm still slightly bitter.
I think I got another muscle spasm in my neck or something. It won't move properly.
Lame.
Organizing my life is kind of like cleaning my bedroom: it happens very slowly.
ANYWAY
Cassie's coming over so I have to go be ready.
I've got 2 days left with my friends from here. Not much time....
Oh well. Camp time on Saturday!

[19 Jul 2006|01:01am] |
I'm trying to become a green consumer. It's hard.
Oh well. I figure that the cost in convenience is going to be worth it.
Plus I don't think I'm going to be frittering away my money on things that I don't need.
At least....
I hope I won't.
I really want to take care of my environment; it's becoming a driving factor in my choices.
I suppose that's a good thing.
What I need to do is to learn how to stay on fire and not use up my energy in projects that never get finished.
So many of my projects never get finished.
I hate it because I want to make change in the world.
I always have.
So somehow I have to figure out a way.
I feel so small as one person...
but I know I can inflict big change, even on my own.
Current plans and ideas:
1. To buy a recyclable toothbrush from Recycline.
2. To make my own laundry soap.
3. To knit a skirt.
4. To mend all my sweet dresses that would be even more amazing if I mended them.
5. To maintain a clean room.
6. To do at lease 15 minutes of physical activity every day for at least one semester.
7. To buy a bicycle.
8. To use said bicycle.
9. To use public transit and not rely on my minivan.
10. To not sell out on my studies next year.
(Quite possibly to become an antisocial braniac hippy)
That's the news as it stands so far.

Well I woke up...finally....terribly late as is sometimes usual.
Today...I have to unpack, do laundry, knit, sew, and do all sorts of crazy things that I haven't done yet. It's going to be sweet.
If someone wants to...it'd be excellent if someone could make me a lovely layout that doesn't do funny things. I guess my currenty one is rather beautiful...however it doesn't work properly on my computer. I think I might just leave it....because I do like it. I just wish I could fix what was wrong with it somehow.
Well today is going to be crazy sweet...and I hope everything that needs to happen happens...which means I'm going to have to start quickly, because I've only been awake for about an hour and I'm nowhere near ready for the day. So silly of me I know...however there's not much I can do about it now besides get to work.
Have an excellent day everyone and I promise not to neglect this too many more times.
