Granted

I do take a lot of things for granted. For instance, whenever I need to wake up early for work (which thank god has increased!), my mom makes breakfast for me. She doesnt have to, especially on weekends, but, she does.
I never really appreciate how my brother is so like.. non confrontational. i mean, if he was.. then.. probably half the house would be destroyed ... with like all the potential arguments we might have had.
Of course i rarely appreciate all the advice my dad gives me.. whether its advice that im looking for or not.
I feel like im such a "take take take" person.
and like, i havent really been doing much to recipricate.
At least with my friends im doing the mystery box to show how much i do care about them!
which im pretty darn excited to show!
But yeah, deff feel like im not giving as much as im recieving, not even materially, but like... you know..

anywyas,
speaking of materially.
LOL
i went to the mall today with my mother.
I really wanted a laptop bag.. and i searched high and low for one:
bentley's, futureshop, london drugs...
actulaly it hink thats all the places ilooked at at first.
but i couldnt find one that i liked!!
so distressing.
then my mom wanted to go to sears to buy some baby stuff for a baby shower for a relative...
and then i ran into a couple people, one being zrhw! which was so great!
especially since i tackled her in the men's clothing section..
she was cutting through that section to get to the jewlery section... dont worry, she doesnt have a secret fetish:P.
anyways, my mom was about to pay for the baby stuff, when i saw her distinctive hair, and i was like "thats N!!!!!!!!!!!!" and i actually booked it across the store.
I ran up behind her yelling "N!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
And like gave her a huge bear hug!
and then i realized after that her sister and mom were staring at me like a mad woman.
Anywyas, we had a lovely chat about rugby and fainting and kleat bruises :P, school, and of course.. LAPTOP BAGS! it was so excellent because i found out where zrhw got her epic bag... because i seriously needed one to carry my stuff... all of the ones in the other stores were UGLY. UGLY UGLY UGLY.
and expensive.
and not practical.
and really tiny.
and only meant to store laptops in!
So... yeah, zrhw's place worked magically, THANK YOU ZRHW FOR SAVING ME FROM BUYING A HIDEOUS BLACK ONE THAT DOESNT FIT ANYTHING <3
thank you sooo much!

OH, i got a hair cut today.
its short.
i didnt expect it to be this short!
its a little distressing
and of course im not happy wiht it.
im NEVER happy with hair cuts unless the change is tres tiny!!
anyways,
i should probably hit the hay.
i woke up at 5;30 this mornign because i was cold.
how can it be cold int eh summer? i dont understand..
and afterwards i stared at the computer for ages..
and then tried to sign up for courses.
but the site crashed.
fortunately everyone was in the same boat i was, so its not like i was missing out on seats!
eventually the site came back up about 30 mins later, but gosh it was stressful!
