Crazy, Chaotic, Confusing... and Perfect.

I hate to be one of those girls who gets all excited and blogs about the new boy in her life, because honestly, who likes to read that crap? That said, after 3 years as a single lady, I think I have the right to at least be a teensy bit giddy. It's not like I force you to read it.

I met said boy about 2 1/2 years ago. Since then we've became quite close friends. That was all fine and dandy for quite awhile, but somehow in the past few months we've marched right across that line that separates "Just friends" from "Something more". This led to many arguments, confusing conversations... we even wrote lists stating the reasons we should never date. Sometimes, you don't have a choice in the matter. Occasionally, you have to ignore what your head tells you and listen to your heart... a difficult task for both of us. With a bit of hesitation and a lot of excitment, we've jumped off the deep end and are praying that we stay afloat. I see fun times in the near future.

Sorry gentlemen (please don't stop reading my blog as a result!)... but I'm off the market.

June!!!!

I always get ridiculously excited when we hit the month of June. Since I was a little girl, it's been (in my opinion) the absolute best month of the year. I have reasons behind my logic:

1. Summer begins on June 21st. The best season of the year. Finally.

2. When I was a student, June marked the end of school. How can you beat that?!

3. My birthday is June 24th. Sure, this is getting to be less anticipated with each year, but I still love having cake with my name on it. Mmm, cake.

4. Camping. And I'm not talking May Long weekend, snowing on your tent kind of camping. Real camping, warm and such.

5. Vegas. I've never been before, but this year I'm flying off in celebration of my 23rd birthday. Heck yes.

Yes, it's going to be a great month indeed. Happy June everybody!

When You Wish Upon A Star...

At 22 years of age, I'm still convinced that wishes come true.

I can't help but to make a wish any time I see a shooting star soar across the sky, blow out candles on a cake, blow the seeds off of a dandelion, or watch the clock change to 11:11.

Realistic? No. But in this crazy, chaotic world that we live in, sometimes it's just nice to believe in the power of wishing.

It's Beginning To Feel A Lot Like Summer!

Ahh, sunny days.

It's been a long time coming. Despite last weeks dumping of snow, I'm optimistic that we've seen the last of winter... until September.

I have to admit, there is nothing like a Canadian summer. After months of bitter cold, we get approximately 2 months of hot weather. And believe me, we make the most of it. I've been to several countries during the summer season, and nobody celebrates quite like Canadians. We cram as much as possible into the short season, making up for the amount of time we spend cooped inside our homes all winter.

Rafting down the river, backyard campfires, days lying on the beach, ice cream, parties, and sunburns. Bring it on, Summer.

It's That Time Of Year...

Dear Seasonal Allergies,

I don't mean to sound rude, but I would greatly appreciate if you would leave. Go far, far away from me and never return. You see, I'm a big fan of breathing and you make doing so particularily difficult from time to time. I also could do without itchy, watery eyes and a sore throat.

Did I mention that I love summer? I live for warm summer days, sitting outside enjoy the sunshine. Thanks to you, I'm forced to seek shelter indoors when somebody is mowing the lawn or when poplar trees start to shed their beautiful white fuzz. I'm a self proclaimed nature loving, tree hugger, and here I am allergic to trees. Thanks a lot.

I'm a good person, I can't see how this cruel punishment is at all justified. You are mean, Allergies... mean, mean, mean! I hope that when you try to sleep at night you are overcome with guilt for all of the suffering you force millions of us to endure. Go away, nobody wants you here.

Yours truly,

Krysta, Allergy Sufferer

Will Power

Some days I really wish that I possessed more will power. So many things would be so much easier.

I'd stop spending my money and pay off my debt sooner. I'd stop slacking, study for my exams and start making decent money. I'd start letting go, and avoid the inevitable upset that the situation is going to bring.

Will power, you've been by my side in the past, where have you gone? I need you in my life!

The Party is Over!

Sunburns, snow falls, best friends, vodka, and most importantly... smores!

Another successful May Long weekend!
