Sunshine, Lollipops and Rainbows

First,
Thank you everyone for your outpouring of support after my some-what discouraged post on Wednesday! Phone calls, mail, email, and facebook messages: I didn't have a chance to be down on Thursday!

And now...
Directly after blogging on Wednesday I went to Veronica's room to invite her over for tea, a plan which we'd made earlier that day. Taylor was out somewhere, maybe she had a class, I don't remember. Anyway, I went to get Veronica and some how ended up with half the floor in my room again, having tea and a scone and killing ourselves laughing. Definitely not what I'd expected when I went to get Veronica, but certainly what I needed.

Taylor and I both find it strange that our room, or just outside our door always seems to be the gathering place. We don't have a fridge full of beer, we don't offer candy or junk food, or blast loud music, and it's not like we're the party type. But everyone is always here, and strangely enough, I like it...though perhaps we should start getting people to leave earlier...11:45 when we have class in the morning is a tad bit late. Luckily I dont have any early
morning classes.

That brings me to yesterday. I woke up feeling much better, the sun was shining into my room, the first thing I saw when I went to turn off my alarm was my giant lollipop: how could I not be in a good mood? I listened to some music, made some breakfast, read the news online, talked to my dad on the phone, and eventually I went to class: history back to back with Politics. In politics we watched a documentary about coffee. BUY FAIR TRADE. (If you dont take my word for it, I can direct you to a 50 page report, or a 40 minute BBC broadcast, or the documentary that we watched yesterday, but believing me would save lots of time!)

I went out to buy my french textbook, which I was told would cost me 50 dollars and was actually 120. I wasn't impressed. Then I bought some groceries and all my favourite foods were on sale! How often could that possibly happen? Too bad they weren't on sale enough to make up for my ridiculously overpriced text book. It's not even a hard cover book!

After Mango curry for dinner, and then more homework, I finished my day having tea with Veronica, and then of course hanging out with everyone who had gathered just outside my door.
