ramblings (aka trying to catch up on the past few weeks)
So I survived house/baby-sitting for my aunt and uncle. I did it! Haha. I never really had any doubts though...I've always been good with kids. And I can be organized, which helps...I think. Anyway, so I came home from house-sitting late on June 12th. Worked early that Monday, but started to feel sick that week...:( Luckily, I had Tuesday and Wednesday off from work. The next Saturday (the 18th) was my mom's big 50th Birthday Party! It was fun. Almost 50 people came, and had a few drinks and enjoyed some yummy food. It was fun getting to hang out with friends and family all together - I actually didn't have too many friends there, but I know most of my mom's. Lol. Michelle and Jaclyn stopped by later on...yay them! hehe.
Since Saturday, I've been sick. It's sucked. Booooo :( Right now, I've partially lost my voice too! Ugh! No fun when you work at a coffee house. I mean, you need to talk to customers to find out what they want to order, how much it'll cost them, to tell them when they're drink is made. Argh. Oh well, I'm hoping it'll go away soon. *fingers crossed* I have noticed though, that cherry is the main flavour for anything related to sore throats. Why is this? Who decided that cherry should be the main flavour? What about strawberries?? They're good too! Sigh.
Some more exciting news...is my moving out!! Meg (aka my Winnipeg friend, haha) is moving out here in September, and we're going to get an apartment together! It's very exciting! I've got so much stuff already (cutlery, spice jars, and mugs and much, much more! LOL). Last night, I went and bought some plates, small plates and bowls from Ikea. They're sweet. I just can't wait to move out. This is something that I've been excited about for a LONG time. It's almost hard to believe it's actually happening...but in just over 65 days I'll be in my own place!!! Weeeeeeeeee!!
Well, I need to go and clean up the kitchen and start to get ready for work...here are a few random pics from the past few weeks...

OMG! I'm not really sure what was going on here...haha. All I know, is that it was at the Arduini's birthday party...and yes, I'd had a few drinks. I think Amy might've taken this one. Hmm. LOL.
Heather, Taryn and my cousin Laura at my mom's 50th Birthday Party.

Me...of course with my martini. Hahaha.
Heather and our cousin Gillian...yeah...I know they're both 19, but umm, I don't think they'd been drinking yet. LOL.
