hockey radio. yuck.

i have only got two more pieces done on my pattern. but i am feeling confident that i am doing it correctly. getting all the curves right, and adding the right amount for my size. unfortunately i don't understand patterns like that enough to completely custom fit it to me... but on the chart, the size i am going for is pretty close to perfect for me. i hope so anyway.

i don't really know WHY i am writing, or WHAT i am writing about. i just felt like it. i found out that my old best friend who is dating my ex boyfriend is pregnant. i feel pretty weird about it. i'm not really attached to either person, at all, but it just feels weird. its a weird thought.

two of my very good friends got engaged on new years eve!!! very exciting. i wasn't surprised or shocked. i knew they were just waiting because all their other friends got engaged... they wanted their own thunder for it. heather has 2 years left of school, so they'll get married when she's done. i'm very very very happy for both of them. PLUS, i get to be a bridesmaid. WOO! it'll be fun. i've never been a part of a wedding party before (other than being my mom's flower girl when i was like 3 or something... that doesn't count though). big congratulations for heather and mike. much happiness to come.

perhaps i'm just killing time because i am so bored. due to operating this hockey game currently.

my counterpart at the radio station, jen, is leaving for australia in like a week. so i get to take her sunday shift (yay!). i'll be on air from 12-6 every sunday until kelsi gets back from wherever she is (sometime in the spring, i think? no one really knows for sure...). and then it will just be a 2 hour shift. whatever. i also get to do quite a few hockey games this month, which will be good for my financial situation. although i am confident that will all turn around after this month. by the end of this coming week i should be up and fully serving at sir winston's. which will be great for the wallet. and that along with picking up all these shifts at the station i think will be just right. and neither is a regular 9-5 kind of job... i don't think the standard 9-5 makes me very happy. it just doesn't excite me. i think you have to be a little excited about your job.

speaking of being excited... i am excited to use my new found talents with recording phone calls and putting them on air this weekend. after the hockey game and tomorrow i am going to ask people to call in and tell me about their new years resolutions. i think its a pretty solid idea. and speaking of resolutions mine are as follows: i would like to lose 10 pounds. i know it isn't much. but i think its just my little bit of extra weight i am carrying around. the little bit that makes the difference between just being, and being in shape! i plan to get a gym pass (i know, i know) as soon as my wallet will allow and start going with my friend mikha (from the fare) to the ladies gym. i think it could be fun. i want to be TONED. another resolution is to make myself an entire wardrobe this year. i now have all the tools. i have all the ladies wear pattern making blocks. i want to learn to use them, at least some of them, and design my own patterns. if i can successfully grade the patterns i have now, i think it will be a big feat. and finally... i want to learn to play an instrument. at least a few chords. a simple song. SOMETHING. i always feel so incompetent. i want to make my own music... but its so hard when i don't play anything. and my friend that i have been writing some songs with (not lately... i suck) is moving to langley. so lame.

... i don't think i have anything else to blab about. thats all.
