So I don't think this can possibly be just a Shark blog... because I've been thinking about this a lot and have been meaning to add something.That paper house book that you brought up is super good, except the end is a little depressing. You know what else is depressing?? Not having a library card for anything local. And I keep seeing really good-looking books at stores that I've been itching to buy. Don't even get me started on the stupid fucking university library (excuse the french- everyone here swears buckets and its beginning to rub off) the sections there aren't in any kind of order. They alphebetized the sections but the sections have nothing to do with whats in them. For example, although music is in the M section... art history is in the NZ section on a completely different floor. The gods are mocking me. the community I live in is so small that everyone rubs onto everyone else. You kind of forget theres an outside world until you read your own blog and realize its not yours anymore. I'm hungry.
SEe that cake on the bottom post? Yes you do, well, when i saw that picture, i imediatly fell in love with it.
Seriously, i did. And in a weird way, it is sort of a girly cake, but i don't care, i'm still making it for my dads and brothers birthday on the second of november. It just amazing.
So... How am i today? Still in my pajamas, getting levi ready for school, because he somehow convinced my mother that he was sick and my mom compremised that he would walk up to school at noon.
Fair enough, whatever.
He's complaning that he has nothing to wrap his sandwhich up with and that some ate all the apples.
As for me... I'm just bleh right now. Kindof happy i learnt this new part in marimba practice, well the whole part with jocelyn, and the first sounds really cool.
I'm thinking, eventually, maybe i'd want to take marimba lessons and make this serious and learn to read music and the whole nine yards. but until then.. i guess i'll just make gulab jamun...
Indian sweets basically. See picture? Don't they look amazing? Oh yes they do.
and finish painting the sign and helping my mom pack up so we can move eventually.
A True Feeling i;ve been lacking lately. Though it might just be that i'm just confused about where i am standing and what i should be doing, while being sick as the heavens will allow me (had to miss band pactice yesterday...arghh).
I keep thinking i need to do something productive, but i have no clue what that is..
Listen to the "Mrs. Morris", i found it while going through the logs on r3 30 like 15 minutes ago.

Seeing Mortimer and Zoola are in the university bound zones, i don't see them contributing anytime soon to this blog of sorts. (Zoola no doubt has forgotten about it..) So for the time being i guess this will be a Shark blog.
I guess ill just put music, random thoughts, books i'm reading and the general things happening in my life for the people who actualy read this to know.
Book of the day? "The Girl with the full figure is your daughter" By Oscar martens
If you live in the oceanside area, you can get this book at your local public library! Its a book of short stories and some of shorts stories are rediculously sexual at points. Nothin wrong with that. It was just funny, and the author is from the lower mainland, so... you are hearing about funny places that you can connect with (which is nice i guess?)
I'm actually trying to blow through it right now, seeing i'm pretty sure it's overdue and theres this other book i want to get to too... " The Paper House-a novel" by Carlos Maria Dominguez. The book is about the size of my hand (and no i do not have man hands-) and it looks like a cute and good read.
There was also this book by Jasper Ffordes in the discount bin at the mulberry book store in qualicum that i was wanted to get, but since funds are running low right now... i thought over it ten times and descided against it. Plus it was like 20 dollars. 20 dollars is a horrible discount price.
I don't know, i guess i'll be reading alot and trying to fill up my time with productive things to do. Painting maybe. Once i get my room cleaned though... Because i aquired a piece of wood- 5 by 3 feet big to paint on, except i need the space and the type of space where i can leave it there for weeks at time and forget about it type of thing without a mother bitching at me to move it along and clean up the paint water or "stop using plates for your painting!!1"
Oh and i also need to find a recipe for stuffed grapeleaves. But only just because my mother got a jar of pickled grape leaves as a joke the other day and now it's my mission to figure out how to use them.
Wish me luck? Luck.
Plus it's a first on hypem.com that i;ve seen a song get more then 2.5k likes... Good jjob kid cudi /pursuit of happiness!
Tommorow is the day Mortimer and Zoola leave for an exciting humanitarian trip. Fix the world the best they could, too bad they had to pay to fix the world, but being 18 year old canadians with only so much, its the best they could do. Have fun ladies and meet some nice men :D
Sure there is the exception, minitures like that 10 year old from victoria and his mom, going down to Uganda every year building schools and whatnot to a bit more famous, now adult, but started out (like most) young, Craig Keilburger or however you spell his name, a canadian who wanted to make a change and then did so. Did you know i shook his hand last year? Man, that was cool.
Me on the other hand, i am left behind, but not really, to find something to do.
Today i cooked and painted and listen to loud french rap, tommorw i work and see a lovely classic down at the beach with a couple important (men) in my life. I'm kindof pissed i have a lack of women in my life, but maybe, thats alright, and it's the way it's suppose to be.
Maybe i'll figure out someting exciting and important to do. Trust me, everything will be alright.

You know, if you put a kiwi in with your breakfast and then say "Hey! Don't eat my cerial, i've got to go pee!" to your younger brothers, the milk in your cerial will curdle. Why? Chances are it has to do with the high acid content in the kiwi.

You know.. that William Blake drew this?
Do you know who William Blake is?! A Poet.
Thank you Persian Man, For telling me these words. Man. Just look at those lady abs though. it's intense (it is intense )
Just made Kiwi Bailey Cookies. They taste more like little cakes, then cookies, but all the same a great deal.
