ABC's of Moi

Oh my, I am truly horrible at keeping this blog updated. Sorry about that, but I've been terribly busy and when I wasn't busy I actually didn't have my laptop (lent it to Mom because her computer died) so no internet for me. So to make up for all the time missed blogging, I am going to follow suit with what seems to be a big trend right now and educate you readers on the ABC's of Moi :)

Enjoy!


Age: I'm 23, but will turn 24 later this spring

Bed Size: I'm actually quite proud to admit that I have an awesome Queen size bed, with an awesome headboard that actually doubles as a bookshelf (YAY!)

Chore You dislike: Vacuuming. Ugh, I just hate it so much! not only does it make a tremendous amount of noise for no reason, but you have to move ALL your furniture to make sure you clean every inch of the room, plus you have to attach the different thingies for every different area that you clean. (carpet, wood, drapes, furniture etc)

Dogs: I love small dogs. Don't get me wrong, big dogs are cool too but I've always adored dogs that can get under your feet and drive people insane with their hyper and explosive personalities! I used to have a Long Haired Dachshund and would LOVE to get another one, but ultimately I want to have a Cairn Terrier (to be named Toto of course) and a Yorkshire Terrier (just because)

Essential Start to Your Day: Good, Loud Music. Doesn't matter which song or band, Top 40 is totally cool with me. And about an hour after waking up, I need a good strong Medium or Large Tim Horton's Double Double. (a cup of the Tim's home brew is good too.) I have no idea why, but if I drink coffee before that hour is finished I just end up sick. It just boggles my mind

Favourite Colour: Pink! um Purple and Green also are incredibly awesome. (my room and bathroom are actually a mix of different greens, while my bedding tends mostly be lavender and violet) But Pink is by far my favourite ever since I was a little girl. I don't even remember when I started liking it in the first place, I just know that I adore it! But for clothing, I where mostly blacks and/or purples.

Gold or Silver: I'm not picky really. I adore the bright yellow Gold, but there is just something about Silver that I cannot ignore. It just seems so much more casual and everyday. I actually wear a silver chain with a Starfish pendant on it everyday. Gold is much more special and I tend to reserve it for special occasions only.

Height: Short lol umm No actually the last time I checked I was 5'4 but I might be a bit taller. All I know is that I am the shortest in my household, my Mother is the only one in my immediate family shorter than I am and my 15 year old brother towers over me :(

Instruments you play: I used to play the Violin and could probably still play some tunes on it, but I was never any good and got discouraged fast. I actually haven't picked it up since I graduated high school :s

Job Title: Sadly, unlike my uber awesome friend, Athena, I am not a secret superhero that saves the city of Montreal from evil sea creatures in the wee hours of the morning. :(
I am merely a time traveling alien who is flitting through earth's time line in search of friendship, love, and endless adventure! ;-)

Nope, just kidding. I'm a University student, only months away from completing my BA! Then it's off to be a beneficial part of the work force, hopefully in publishing or editing.

Kids: Are awesome! In a perfect world I would love to have 4 (3 girls and 1 boy) but I'm not picky. I just want to be able to have as many as I can financially support who are all happy, healthy, and well loved! :) But I've already come up with some name ideas hehe Girls: Riley Ann and Brianna (Bree for short)  Boy: Bryan James,

Live: in a House :-)

Mum's Name: Momma :-P

Nickname:  Rae, and my little cousin calls me George (haha He watches too much Bugs Bunny cartoons. The Abdominal Snowman creature always grabs Bugs and says "Oh my, Just want I always wanted My own little Bunny Rabbit. I'm going to hug him, and squeeze him and call him George" haha So he does the exact same thing to me whenever he sees me)

Overnight Hospital Stay: oh boy! So many! well okay, only two and the first one doesn't count because I was a new born. But yeah, apparently I had to stay in the hospital for 2 weeks after I was born in intensive care because I was so sick due to being 2 weeks late as well as taking too long in the birth canal. (Mom left after 1 week and had to come back to the hospital everyday to feed and learn to take care of me)
The next time I had to stay overnight at the hospital was a few years ago, umm Xmas 2008 I believe. It was for the LONGEST 4 days of my LIFE!!!!! I was completely sick for a whole two weeks before I went in, but the last few days before I finally gave up and went into the hospital were brutal, I moved from my bed to the couch and back again. Didn't eat anything at all, only drank flat 7up or water, and was basically living off of cough drops and extra strength advil. Mom rushed me to the hospital on Dec 22nd because I was barely breathing, and within 20 minutes of getting into the hospital I was placed in intensive care where I laid, hooked up to an IV for 2 nights and on the 24th around lunch time they moved me up to a room with 2 old dying women. (ugggo) I begged and pleaded with the doctor when I finally saw her at lunch time on the 25th to let me go home. And she did :)

Pet Peeves: slow walkers, idiots who think they know everything and always have to be right but in reality they are just plain dumb as a post, and intelligence being wasted

Quote from a Movie: "I'll get you my pretty! And you're little dog too!" Wicked Witch of the West from The Wizard of Oz (My absolute favourite movie of ALL TIME! )

Siblings:  2 younger sisters and a younger brother

Time you Wake Up: when my alarm goes off or when Dad stomps on my ceiling lol. No actually, during the week it's usually around 8:45 but I lolly-gag until 9:30/10. On weekends it usually anywhere between 9 and 11. depending on what I have to do that day

Underwear: Comfy

Vegetables you don't like: Asparagus and Peas. Ohhh or anything boiled until it's mush (bleck!)

What Makes you Run Late: power outages that kill my alarm, or I can't find my keys or clothes to wear

X-Rays you've had: both arms (broke them both when I was little. at different times though 6 months apart.) my ankle/foot area a few years ago because I had a really bad sprain. My Left knee in winter 2003 (torn my meniscus and dislocated my knee). Brain x-rays a whole bunch of times in high school (kept passing out for no apparent reason, turns out I needed more iron in my diet to help the blood circulation) and I think that's all. Oh except my teeth and head Xrays at the dentist and ortho surgeon (I was supposed to get major corrective dental/ortho surgery when I was 18 but I didn't want them to break apart my face in like 8 different places so I didn't go through with it)

Yummy Food You make: .Cakes, Muffins, Cupcakes, Cookies. hehe I mostly Bake. But I also make a killer Meatloaf as well as an awesome Mexican Taco Rice meal :)

Zoo animal favourites: Dolphins! they are my favourite animal BY FAR!!! But I also Love the hippos, polar Bears, Penguins and Orangutans (lol they remind me of my Sister lol. Big Red haired monkeys lol)

 This concludes the ABC's of Moi! I hope you have learned a few things about me, I know I have!

OMG before I forget, tomorrow (eekkkk!) I'm going to the Old Timers' Hockey Challenge for Charity Game at the Verdun Auditorium! I usually don't like hockey, but this is for a good cause, all the proceeds go to the Montreal Children's Hospital Foundation. Not only is there a game, but there is also a silent auction. I never bid on anything, seeing as how I am a no income kind of student, but I just love seeing what is there and what people are bidding on etc. I also love the history and company of the games. I've been going since I was a little girl. My dad's been donating to the Hospital and getting these tickets every year since I was born and we used to go every year. It'd be him, my Grampy, Manda and I that would go and we would have a blast! The last couple of years it's only been Manda, her fiancee and me that have been going (we still pay for four tickets though because it's for a great cause!) This year, to repay my friend for taking me to my first actual NHL game (Leafs VS Habs at the Bell Center on Feb. 24th) I'm taking him with us to the game (yes, it's the guy I'm hardcore in like with) I also am completely aware of the fact that the two games to do equate in value, But I mean come on! the guy is a major hockey fanatic and I am a major him fanatic so it's a win win! :-P [except for Manda but I'm just going to ignore the resentment and anger that will be wafting off of her all night and concentrate on the game and my bliss]

I wish overflowing buckets of Peace, Love and Happiness to you all!
