This list is a compilation of the things I want to accomplish before my (and maybe Nicole's) big move to Guatemala. Decide what Graduate school I want to attend... (Queens, UWO, U of T...?) Get three (if lucky!) articles or short stories published...!! (I only have two articles published, so I need to pad my portfolio). Start working on my novel (idea down... x  number of words to go....) Get my citizenship card back... *grumble* Get my degree! (huzza!!) Live on my own. Get more work experience (not just as a theatre slave....) Get a part-time job working with VUE or SEE Weekly. Talk to my Aunt's CNN correspondent friend... Maybe he'll hire me (!) hahaha! Plan out my/our travel map (Mexico, El Salvador, Honduras, Belize, Costa Rica, Guatemala are definite destinations but... where else??) It's going to be great living in Guatemala again. Nicole has been saying that she wants to go with me, but only time will tell how serious she is about this. I mean, let's be pe...

This past weekend was the best weekend of my young life. Reason? Ummmm... MUSIC , son. On Thursday, I went to Cowtown with my bestie and two of the most chill girls in the world. Reason? The inaugural JUNO concert that was going down in Calgary, that's why! Two of my most favourite bands in the whole stinkin' world and my friends??? What's not to like, right?? So anywhoodle, on Thursday it was Fabiana's birthday (and also the day our faves Bedouin Soundclash and Sloan played). So we left at noon in order to get into Cowtown at around 3:00. We get to my aunt's and leave our junk at her casa. It's all good. I look at the clock and realise that it's 3:45 and we should probably get to Olympic Oval before 5:00. We leave, take the C-Train to downtown, get to the venue and watch Calgary's The Dudes who are followed by the New Odds, which we missed because Char and I were FAMISHED and it took the concession people 45 minutes to serve us.... Oh dear. Then.....

Huzza! The Saint Alvia Cartel is going to play JUNOFest on Friday, April 4 at 1:00 am... YAY! These guys are soooooooo soooooooooo sOOOOOO good. It'll be fun to see them live once more. Then, on Saturday, April 5, Eon Sinclair , bass GENIUS from Bedouin, will be entertaining the Calgarian masses to some of his DJ styles at 1:00 in the am. fuck. a. duck. It should be a great time.

EEEEEEEEEEK!! Sloan is playing on April 3 in Calgary. Edmonton is only three hours away from Calgary. Bedouin Soundclash is also playing that night.... These two bands, along with Finger 11 , are playing a FREE, FREE, FREE concert! FREE! There is no reason as to why I shouldn't go. Hell, I have to go! First the Matt Costa concert, then it's the Foo Fighters this month, and next month it's Concert-Palooza in Calgary for the JUNOs. Wowzers. Did I mention that The Saint Alvia Cartel is also playing during JUNOFest....'cause they are!! Frig I love Cowtown. April will be a bowl of musical goodness. Yum!
