<joel> ah, summer summer summer. I can't believe it's August 15... the rest of my summer seems to far away now.. Summer Arts, Duncan's visit, Peter Pan... it's crazy stuff, I tell ya. but anyway, today I'm leaving for the north of the province for a nice camping trip/picking up Tom from camp in Miramichi/to be trampled by crowds of drunk and happy Acadians. this'll be fun... I doubt we'll sleep tonight. I'm scared. haha so anyway my week - eh, I hung around a bunch of places - I worked, I went to the beach, etc. etc. - good week! I feel bad though that I didn't go see Mary-Claire's musical review at SJHS last night, seeing as to how I won't be able to go for the rest of the weekend... but, y'know, a guy's gotta do what a guy's gotta do. but yeah, yesterday everything started out wrong but turned out right... kind of. we weren't going to the beach... but we ended up going. I had no one to work my shift today so that I could go camping... But I ended up getting someone to work it for me. I wasn't going to end up hanging out with my "peeps" (cultured lingo) but I did..... and more. so I mean, yesterday was just an amazing day, I even ended up going to my grandmother's yesterday which was right fun, don't ask me why, not like... drunken party fun, just wholesome sunny day nice conversation fun. so y'know what? it was coo, it was coo. ...well, considering where my day started, anyway. but yeah, I'd imagine we're going to get killed by the Acadian mafia on the way, so let's hope we can get some sleep apart from all the noise tonight - caused by very happy, and possibly very drunk Acadians. yet I'm Acadian, too - hm! maybe I'll catch up with some of my "acadian homies" (hahahaha) and get drunk off my ass with them. sounds like a plan! ....if I was an alcoholic. anyway, enough of my rambling, I'll see ya'll later
Vacationing in N.B.,
Letting myself relax before the whirlwind that is life starts again in September, which is pointing up to the sun.

<joel> Hey, my life's been pretty 'out of whack' as of late, because of the marathon by the sea, but hopefully I'll kinda go back to normal pretty soon. but lately I've been kinda depressed because everyone's gone on camping and I'm stuck here, but some cool stuff has happened, but shh! anyway yeah here's my late friday five and stuff:
1. What's the last place you traveled to, outside your own home state/country?
Out of the province in Canada: Québec City, 2001. Out of the province into another country: USA, July 2003, Maine. (wow)
2. What's the most bizarre/unusual thing that's ever happened to you while traveling?
Umh one time we nearly ran over a dear... Another time our wipers went crazy on us and my mom starting screaming... Annnd one time, at band camp,....
3. If you could take off to anywhere, money and time being no object, where would you go?
Ohhh New York baby! damn, that'd be so sweet - I'm a city boy, so that'd be just amazing. and for more of a relaxing place, probably a nice resort in Cuba.
4. Do you prefer traveling by plane, train or car?
Depends on the distance, car if it's in the province, train if it's somewhere else in the atlantic provinces (like taking the train from New Brunswick to Newfoundland, tay hay hay) annnd plane for farther distances.
5. What's the next place on your list to visit?
my family might be going to the Dominican Republic in march, so that's pretty cool.
Joel the runner,
Getting cultured, damnit!!

<joel> well it's a crappy weathered (shock shock) Sunday afternoon here on Vale Crest Drive (ouh I disclosed my address.. I'm bad...) where I am recovering from the big weekend of the marathon by the sea. yep, I did registration, displays, and I ran the 5-miler this morning in a time of 43:47, pretty damn sweet! haha anyway my past week... well, I hooked myself up! 'Leesh is just so proud of me, she's gon' get me cultured this fall! and it return, I'm gonna be her running coach. oh man, it's going to be the coolest. anyway yeah, like I said I hooked myself up - kinda ditched Mariel, em - it was a pretty lazy week actually, not much work or anything really... yes, yes you may return from the edge of your seat from that description of my week. well actually I had an ego-boost today, so I'm good. </joel> <!--04:13-->
