packing my future, unpacking my past
...if that makes any sense, heh.
i'm currently at my mom's place. getting the last of my stuff packed up, and ready to go in the morning... i'm getting pretty emotional about this. i guess things finally started to slow down, and now i'm taking the time to think about what's really happening, other than me just moving... i'm leaving a neighbourhood i've lived around for the past 17 or 18 years... i don't have TOO many friends that i'm gonna miss or anything like that, but when i walk down the streets, i know everyone's face. and that's not gonna be the case anymore... i haven't even told any of my old high school chums that i'm leaving... they're on icq right now, i'm staring right at their nicknames, but i just don't feel like telling them... i told 1 of my old friends... my "god-sis"... cuz she's the only person from my old group that i still have complete respect for... right after i sealed the deal for my new place, my best friend and i were driving away, and she gave me a look... like, "think bob, u've overlooked something, and ur gonna regret it..." and i picked up on it about a minute later... FUCK I DIDN'T SEE A LIQUOR STORE WITHIN WALKING DISTANCE!!! she laughed her ass off at me cuz that's exactly what she was thinking... it was so convenient at my mom's place. there were 3 liquor stores within walking distance... i was going through one of my drawers, where i had some of my criminology notes from school... i skimmed through them cuz i like to go through my old school days and reminisce sometimes... i hadn't seen these papers since i dropped out of college... i found some writing on the back of 1 page... "u threw the bracelets in the garbage..." is all it said... i remembered that i had a girlfriend in college... yea this was only a year and a half ago, but i TOTALLY forgot about this chick... she was a nice girl and all, but ... she was a ... HONGER... byebye student loan... anyways, i remembered why that was written on that page... i could see that day crystal clear in my head. we sat in the back corner of the class. nobody understood what our prof. was saying. he had a really strong nigerian accent.... me and my girlfriend had a little argument. i didn't wear this necklace she bought for me (i'm actually wearing it right now) to school that day, and she took it as an insult. honestly, it just didn't match what i was wearing. we were both wearing these magnetic bead chinese bracelet thingies... u know the ones... i had the one with the bigger beads, and hers were smaller. it was a cute thing to do. holding hands, attached by magnetic force. *gasp*... she got upset about me not wearing the necklace, and she grabbed my arm and tore the bracelet off... then she tore hers off her arm, and threw them both in the trashcan... that totally pissed me off, cuz i really liked that bracelet. anyways, class was about to begin, so we went and sat down... we were exchanging notes while our prof. babbled about "deviance" and all sorts of crap. and that's how "u threw the bracelets in the garbage..." ended up on that page. WOW what a story... haha... ok, the funny thing about this is, after class that day, she came to her senses and wasn't upset about the necklace, and she was kinda regretting that she threw the bracelets away... sooooo... being the AMAZING boyfriend that i was, i helped her (helped meaning WATCHED) fish the bracelets out of the garbage can... ahahahaah... talk about a pathetic gf/bf memory... but i totally forgot about that until tonite... even though i wear the necklace everyday now (not cuz i'm still hung up over her... but cuz it looks alright... SHUTUP LESLIE), and i have the bracelet (even though it's broken) in my desk ...somewhere... i almost started to miss this place so much that i was gonna break out into tears... then my mom came home and i remembered why i was leaving... i'm pretty upset now, cuz it's pretty sad how i can't stand my mother so much that it pretty much drove me right outta town... that's really sad... i lived in this place for 7 years... and i ran out without thinking twice... now look at me. as to be expected. "you don't know what you've got till it's gone". it never fails.

eh... i doubt i'll get along with my mom in the future... she's got her own life, and she's excluded me from it. plus i don't really wanna have anything do with her choice of life... but i think me & my sis are gonna be a lot closer now...
i live on 66ave & 124st in surrey... near strawberry hills... but i don't think i'm gonna have a housewarming "party"... but welcome to drop by anytime, hehe... maybe i'll have a small little get-together or something...
