i've been working on essays mostly - i still have three more to go, and i am going to have to write one this weekend while i'm in london (i hope to GOD that actually happens, otherwise my tight time-frame is going to get unbearably tighter).

i've been cooking and cleaning (my floors are gleaming) and i'm starting to rhyme again - but in any case this place feels good, because it's so much, well, cleaner. thank you c for helping me wash dishes!! it goes so much faster when you don't have to stop in the middle and dry everything so that the draining basket can become empty and available again.

it's been such a busy week. tony and i have looked at a lot of apartments and, unexpectedly, we've found a place on st. mary street. we're going to see the actual unit we're renting (they showed us an example unit, because it was being renovated and was empty - the unit they will give us still has a tenant living in it (he's supposedly moving out at the beginning of march)) and if everything is ok (i hope it is i hope it is!!!) then we will take it. which means i just have to finish up schoolwork for this year and find a job. and then move, and write exams. i always feel like my life is an eternal chanting of an endless schedule.

apparently molly isn't coming to toronto :( molly. sniff, sniff. what does this mean? will all the annesley girls have to organize a group trip to brazil so we can at least SEE YOU? (kailey can we bring thomas? i think he'd like the monkeys.) i miss you molls. i hope you are having a good time in maine and that you stay in touch when you're back in brazil. (in fact, "annesley girls" is really a code name for a secret service group that organizes trips around the world in search of lost friends. so, uh, molly, we're coming to get you. look out for the group of pistol-packin' mamas in black leather and sunglasses and heavy-duty jeans. that'll be us. we even have a special black leather suit for thomas. and we have our own soundtrack. it follows us everywhere.)

well, things are trundling along - i still have the TJSFF on the go, and the FOD is slowly coming together - i hope most of you can come to the festival of dance, i'll keep you updated. i'm not sure which night i'll be performing, but i am directing friday night with kendra, so if you want to come see that (it'll be cool!! i'm trying to work video into the overall presentation. i know, i know. i'm a film major...no matter how hard i try, everything i do ends up involving film in one way or another).

i'm gonna run now - i have to shower and pack my last-minute things and head down to union station. maybe i'll grab a few seconds to write over the weekend from london - if not, then you'll probably hear from me after i've turned 22 ;)
