ELECTIONS 2008

Canada is having an election in about a month. 
Nooooooooooo... 

I'm positive that the American elections will overshadow ours... I don't know if my statement is unpatriotic [or unfair], but it's the truth. How pathetic.

Despite my anger at the Conservative party and their egocentricities, I'm excited for the election. After all, voting is the most important factor in a democracy. You can't be a democracy without the peoples' input... duh.

Anyway, I'll have to vote in Montreal. This will probably be weird. I hope my new roommates are as into politics as my last ones.

In other news, my slacking always pays off.  I must learn not to procrastinate... Oh, and I'm leaving in exactly ONE WEEK. Let the panic-attacks begin....

Milly's interpretation of me was not that far off-base; she inferred that I'm reserved, prideful, loyal, hard-working, stubborn, and creative --- but she also told me that I can come off as "cold". Now, it's interesting to me that what stuck with me most is the fact she called me cold. Not the fact she correctly guessed that I like to feel people out before baring my thoughts to them. Not the fact she told me I'm creative, but am wasting my talents. Nope. What affected me most about her reading is that I can come off as cold to certain people. I've been called so many things in my life (haven't we all?), but the things I've been called in the past have always had a more... well, a positive spin. I...
