Story of Our Lives

When you're sad, I'm here
When he's a prick, I'm here
When you can't sleep, I'm here
When you need someone to talk to at 4 in the morning and you know no one else is going to pick up their phone, I'm here

And it's not like this is something new
I've always been there because you wanted me there

Wherever you were, I'd be there
Whenever you wanted me, I'd be there
Whenever you needed help, I'd be there
Whenever you just needed to let go, I'd be there to catch you and get you back up again

But when I need you, you're gone
When I need someone to hold me, you're gone
When I need someone to talk to, you're gone
When I need to let go, you're gone

And I'm sick and tired of this
I did everything for you
Because that's what best friends do
Instead I'm getting used by you
But I keep coming back for you
Because I'm always going to be there for you
But when I need you...

... You're gone.

Optimism

Now, I know I've got no chance
but that doesn't change a thing
It's more that I'm too stubborn to accept it
and less that I know the truth of the matter

And it's not like I'm lying to myself about this
That's a daily occurrence in this state of mind
It's just that somehow this will work
(but I have no clue how)

You could say I'm crazy
I'd probably say I'm crazy too
and we'd both be right
except for what I'm crazy about
You.
We probably won't agree on that now
but eventually we will

Everything

I never could accept moving. I still can't accept it. I turn around or look at a place in the house and expect what would normally be there to be there, but it's not. Tonight I blog from the floor of my room. All the furniture is gone to the new house. I'm on a sleeping bag as I type this. As of now, I have only my memories of what this house once was. But those memories are damn near legendary. You could say I grew up in this house, having been here since I was 10. I walked into this place a 4-foot midget in the 5th Grade. I remember running all over the house the first day, thinking "Wow this is our new house! It's huge!" Now I'm walking out of here a 6-foot 18 year old. So much changed. Life and its responsibilities are finally in my hands as I leave here. I learned, made friends, laughed, got in trouble, hid from my parents, sneaked out, slept, but most of all, lived here. And I'm never gonna forget that. It's not so much the building itself that I don't want to leave, but it's the fact that I'm comfortable here. Everything I know happened while I lived here. At the end of the day, this was home for me.

And having your best friends living in the same neighbourhood is just amazing. I know now that if it wasn't for these awesome people that I would probably have wanted to move a long time ago. From riding bicycles and playing ManHunt as kids, going to Sean's with a hot pot of rice, playing basketball 'til midnight and pissing off all the neighbours, skateboarding until someone called the cops, laughing 'til it hurt, to making the Skolla Scooter and then breaking it, planning out some of the most epic presents ever, to just playing video games because we had nothing better to do. I could go on for I have no idea how long about all the stuff we've done over these eight years.

So to my friends brothers Shane, Neil, Sean, Mike, Karl, and Josh here at 686 Warden Avenue, thank you for being the most awesome people I know. And yes, Neil, I'm going to get my G2.

Live from the 686 for the last time,

Sometimes I wish I was a kid again. And not a little kid. I mean a Grade Nine kid. Why Grade Nine? It's old enough to know a few things about how life works but young enough to not have all the worries and problems of 18. One can dream, no? Maybe one day it'll all fall into place

Closer

Started packing up the house intensely. I say "intensely" because it's really starting to hit that I'm actually moving. There's no more pictures on the wall.
Pictures.
I never even cared for the stuff we had on the walls in my house. Never even thought about it. It's funny how the smallest of things get you the most. Something so little pretty much sums up that this isn't going to be my home for much longer. And it sucks.

Epic Case of The Munchies

3 AM plus an empty stomache resulted in a journey of mediocre Harold-and-Kumar proportions last night. Decided to hit up Wendy's with Shane because we were both hungry. Only one problem. We walked. All the freakin' way. And when we got there, we got nothing. Why? Because it was closed. All that for nothing. So, we decided to hit up McDonald's. We got lucky; it was a 24-hour McDonald's. Food has never tasted so good at McDonald's, but then, we were the only ones there, so we knew the food was fresh. Freakin' best McDonald's ever. Also, Shane you owe me $5 LOL

Tracked our epic journey for food with Google My Tracks. Here's the map:

Gettin' On That Old School Tip

As an insomniac, I spend a lot of time on my computer. Most of that time is just music or movies. Last night, though, I ran into an old stash of music that I haven't listened to in years. And I'm not exaggerating. I even found the first song I ever stole downloaded. That was way back in Grade 5, about 7 years ago. It got me thinking about just how much of my memory is tied to music. As I listened to these songs, I began to remember so much that happened in the past. Happier, simpler times, with far less responsibility and reality in my head. And a hell of a lot less drama.

It's Gonna Be The Most Messed Summer Ever

This summer is going to straight up suck for me. Moving out of the only place that I have any recollection of growing up in is pretty damn hard. Having the best neighbours friends ever living just a door or so down from you is also definitely going to be missed. People say change is progress, and it's something I've come to believe as generally true. But for once, I really don't know if that's the case here. I'm being uprooted from everything I know and have become comfortable with, and I don't like it.
Think of a little child on the first day of kindergarten. Now think of that kid that's crying because he wishes he was home. Yeah, that's me right now (Except men don't cry).
Hopefully one day I'll look back at this and think "Hey, this was actually something good."
In any case, I can't stop this now. Might as well try to make the best of it, no?

I'm pretty sure that won't happen.

(One)

I've got my last ever high school exam tomorrow. Pretty amped to get it done with. After that there's just a Graduation Ceremony (that I almost wasn't going to show up to) and then I'm done. But in the meantime, instead of studying, Shane and I found some more time at 5AM to get outside with a camera. We went while the streetlights were still on so it gave the street a studio type of feel. The kind of studio that has tons of lights. Results are up on flickr and I still gotta finish some editing. But, exams first.

Two

Two more days. And then two exams. On June 16th, I'll be done high school. Right now, it feels like high school went by way too fast. Like I should do another year or something. But then, on the other hand, I'm kinda glad it's over. These past four years have been absolutely amazing; not just high school, but all the things that I've done these past four years. I guess the big picture here is that I can't believe it's this close to being done and over with. And in spite of the fact that I absolutely hate my high school (exception: friends), I think I'm gonna miss it.

In other news, Shane and I are going to try for another 5 AM set. That's approximately 2 hours from now, and I'm still awake. Ten bucks says it isn't happening because we won't even wake up.

Update: It didn't happen because we didn't wake up =)

Two Weeks, And a Fit of Insomnia Worth Blogging About

As of right now, I've got 14 days of high school left. Fourteen days. 4 years has gone by really fast. I think back to Grade 9 and how much has changed since then. And I can't help but be amazed by it. It's weird, because I think that I've changed for the worse since Grade 9, but then that could just be me. Somehow, though, I doubt that it's just me. But more on that on another day.

Back on Monday, Shane was at my house. And we were up until about 5 AM, at which time we went outside. In a completely spontaneous fit of randomness, I just said one thing: "Dude, get your camera." That morning looked beautiful. And if I'm a pansy for describing it like that, I really could care less. To make a long story short, by 6 AM we had taken just over 100 pictures. Most of them are still on my hard drive, but I uploaded some to my newly created flickr account. Check the epic photography here. I'm uploading more as I get time to do so. Also, we're planning another set for this Saturday. If anyone in my imaginary non-existent audience is down for it, you know how to contact me.

So This Is What One Year of Headphones Looks Like

For those that may not know, Last.fm is a website that tracks what you listen to from your MP3/iPod, phone, and computer. It's something I've come to love to use. Based on what you listen to, it suggests other artists. It's kind of like imeem, but better in some ways. Recently, I discovered a related service called lastgraph. Basically, it graphs your Last.fm stats. So I tried it, and this is what it gave me. Click it for a bigger picture.

What I found pretty funny was that the graph spikes like a boss around exam time. Which definitely explains why I haven't done well on most of my recent exams. For more, check my Last.fm page, which also gives you the added benefit of being able to stalk me. Well, at least what I'm listening to.

Sushi's Urban Dictionary

Ever heard of a waste cattie?
If your answer is no then you, sir or madam, have come to the right place. Waste cattie's are people that are a waste of your time. They tend to have a recurring tendency of extreme annoyance. Today, they also hire their significant others to help them in their bids of annoyance. The result is a very annoying and ugly person that you will hate until they decide to leave you alone. Expect some genius to think that they're the most amazing person on Earth.

As for you, and you'll know who you are one day, you're the biggest mistake to ever enter our lives. All you've done is ruin it for the rest of us. Don't expect us to join in your silly games of stupidity or even associate ourselves with you. We're done with your bullshit.

Weather Forecast For Saturday April 25, 2009

Higher than average temperatures in the early morning hours, leading to a beautiful afternoon. A little taste of summer, but it will leave you wanting more. At around 4:30 in the PM clouds will begin to roll in and by 5:00 in the PM, expect heavy winds and rain. So much for the [planned] awesome weekend of epically unending proportions. Rain will taper off and then return later on in the evening.

10,001 Tales and Misadventures

Right now, I'm listening to the 10,000th track that I've played since May 24th, 2008. Why that day? Because that's the day I started using Last.fm. It's a site that tracks what you listen to and recommends music that is similar to what you already listen to. The fact that I've listened to 10,000 tracks made me think a lot about all the crazy things I've done over this period of 11 months. Songs tend to bring up different memories for me, and there are so many represented by these 10,000 songs. It's almost mind-blowing to me that I've listened to so much music in just 11 months. Like I've got headphones implanted in my ears. Music has become my escape when I think about it. Some people get violent, others write, or do something else. Music is to me what writing is to a poet. It's an expression of emotion. And while I can't play any instrument beyond the guitar (and I just started learning that), listening to music has become that sort of "important" to me. Maybe I'm crazy. But I like it like this.

A Combination Guaranteed Not to Work

Got a lot of absolutely nothing to do today. Basically loafted at home. Rain tends to do that. On the upside, though, the rest of the week keeps getting better after today. Yes, I copied that from my Twitter. Two things really got my attention today. For one, Lil' Wayne is a musical genius. Now, before you go thinking "Nah yo he's messed!" listen to Tha Carter III. Seriously. I hated Lil' Wayne before. That CD made me a fan. In other musical news, Meg & Dia's new CD got released today. I still haven't got it. It'll happen. Soon.

But onto more important things: Ubuntu 9.04 gets released the day after tomorrow. What is Ubuntu, you ask? It's an Operating System, similar to Windows or Mac. It's also a distribution of Linux that I use heavily. What I like about it is speed. I can turn on my computer and be up and running much faster than I ever would be with a Windows installation. And it can still do fancy things like 3D and Window effects. The real deal-maker with Ubuntu is that it gets even easier to use with every release. At this point, very little technical knowledge is required to get an Ubuntu installation running on your own computer. Using it is just as simple. If you wanna try it out, you can download a version that runs on your computer without actually installing.
Check it out here.

Hype and Situation

Heard someone call this week Green Week. Oh, it's definitely "Green" week today. But drug-related innuendos aside, the new Meg & Dia CD ships out tomorrow. Here, Here, and Here is the long anticipated sequel to their first big CD Something Real. And can I wait? No! If that makes me a pansy, then fine, I'm a pansy. But you can't deny that they make awesome music. So the first thing I'm going to do tomorrow is go down to the nearest "place where they sell CD's" and actually buy the CD. Yes, those things still exist. You probably had them before you discovered "other methods" of getting music. I don't buy a lot of CD's (READ: Never) but some artists are seriously worth supporting. Oh, and Meg & Dia are on Warped Tour this year. That rolls into Toronto on July 10th, along with a stacked setlist of amazing bands. Which reminds me: I should probably get tickets soon time.

An Untitled Rant Upon Self and Then Some

Today I woke up to two cold, hard realities. More so epiphanies, but I digress.

First, I've gotta pick up my pace with my school work. I've pretty much loafted this semester, and having only two classes doesn't help the situation. As of right now, midterms, I'm passing Calculus by 2%. Combine that with the 60-something I'm getting in Physics and my average is below 70%. As in that University acceptance I got will turn into an un-acceptance. Not exactly what I was hoping for. And it's not like I can't do better in school. I'm just way too lazy to bother most of the time.
Right now, I figure that i might as well just try for the next two months. I mean, it's only two months right? For most people, yeah. But I'm a procrastinator, so no, it's not only two months. It's time that could be well wasted upon something far less useful but more enjoyable: Loafting.
The best thing I can do now is just try. And if you see me on MSN up late, do me a favor: Tell me to get some sleep. It'll definitely help.

The other epiphany of the day actually came late last night. Shout out to my boy for informing me of the stupidity I was about to walk into. And this part of the post is for you. No, not you the reader. Once you read this, however, you'll know who I mean. Yes, you. I can't believe you. And I definitely didn't expect this kind of stupidity from you either. You basically tried to play me. You're not even worth my time anymore, and don't try to fix this problem that you made. Yeah, it's partly my fault that I led you on, but it was all in jest. You, on the other hand, decided to play your cards and really make something of this. And you never even told me what was really going on. There are so many things I could call you right now. And I did. But I won't repeat them. I'm not gonna say anything about this anymore. So don't expect to hear from me ever again. Have a good life. Because I guarantee you that I won't be in it.

I can't say much, except that it is amazing. And that was how this day ended. Although, it started on a much rougher note. Waking up after making an epic run for KD the evening before can do that to you.

Kraft Dinner and Other Such Entities of Awesomeness

So today, in a fit of complete randomness, some friends and I decided to go down to the grocery store and pick up some Kraft Dinner. I haven't had KD in years. Completely forgot how awesome that stuff can be. About a half hour later, we're in the kitchen trying to cook up as much KD as possible. You could go anywhere in the house and all you could smell was KD. Seriously, I'm in love with Kraft Dinner now.

On the way back home from that adventure, I had a near-dead phone, so no music. I never realized how much I listen to music because I've always had headphones in my ear playing something. It was almost bizarre. Like being out of place in a very normal situation. And yeah, some people get on with life just fine, but it just felt really weird. Maybe I'm crazy. Iunno. But I just need music sometimes.

I'm gonna go eat some more KD now.

I'm a Nerd: Offline Gmail

Way back in January I heard about something called Offline Gmail. Basically what it does is it allows you to have all your email downloaded onto your computer, attachments and all. When you can't get an Internet connection, it lets you access your Gmail as though you were online. Pretty slick stuff. It's kind of like Outlook or Thunderbird, but, in my opinion, a million times better. At first it was available in the US and UK only. Yesterday I noticed that it was available in my account as well, so I tried it out. I never realized how useful this can be until I tried it. The only problem with having all your email saved on your hard drive? It takes up a lot of space if you use a lot of your email for attachments. Otherwise it's pretty awesome to have.

Yeah, OK, I'm done being a nerd for now.

Today was one of those days that I haven't had in a really long time. Somewhere between doing absolutely nothing and doing... well, absolutely nothing, I realized this. It's one of those days without the rush that most days have. A slow day, if you will. But it allowed me to notice so much more. The little things like not noticing the fact that you're gonna miss the bus because you're taking your time to enjoy what you're walking through. Any sign of green coming back on the ground and trees pretty much makes me happy now. I guess it's partly because the weather was great and I hate snow so much now. To me it all means that Summer is one day closer.

In the end, it all comes down to my want for Summer to be here already. It's all my excitement for it just slowly building up. Somewhere between Warped Tour, Conference, I don't know what else, and just loafting like beasts at Sean's house I know that this Summer is going to be the best one I've had yet.

It hasn't rained for years
all that's left now is a desert.
What once was potential
now hard to recollect.

It came with the wind
clouds of inspiration,
and poured down a flood
bringing back infatuation.

Alive, this night
a new flame glows.
In its light
an oasis unfolds.
