Amazing Toronto. Amazing Danforth. The Bloor bridge above the Don River and the Don Vallery Parkway has the most beautiful view. On my way back home accidentally went through UofT campus, in the sunset light of the magic hour - absolutely breathtaking.
I continue hurting myself with the bike, my legs at the knee and above are covered with bruises and/or scratches - totally worth it. Now gotta get myself rear view mirrors and a basket.
In other breaking news, they put up Sobeys signs across Spadina, which is excellent news for everyone except for the little convenience store downstairs. I feel bad for it, it has been there for us through the bad times.
And now I have a glass of white wine and see if I can find it in myself to go spend some time at the gym, while I’m watching the pilot episode of “Lie to me”. Which is actually pretty good.
Updated my gallery, added pictures, made it all pretty, drafted an e-mail to co-workers about it and… accidentally clicked “restore defaults” so now it’s gone.
A job well done.
Summer. is. awesome.
Even with the rain in the past few days, it has been quite amazing couple of weeks. Not even!
I miss sleep, but… not too too much. Just gotta make sure I buy lots of concealer for those dark circles. 
if somebody told me “hesi, what would you say is going to be considered the understatement of the century?”
I would say “hesi saying on Wednesday June 3rd at 7pm that she’s “tired”"
I’m running out of energy. No longer able to study the whole day straight. Feeling exhausted mentally AND physically. Can’t decide if the gym would make me feel better or worse right now. All I feel like is sitting in front of a TV eating cake FOR A YEAR.
*sigh*
i’m done now, thank you for your attention, I’m gone to mark the disaster that is the latest practice exam that took me a million years to complete.
Seven days. The last push. I can definitely take seven days of hard hard work. The payoff is going to be great.
Seven days until freedom.
I can so totally do this.
What a ripoff - it took us forever to choose a tour for Thailand yesterday. Mom wanted to go ride elephants (surprisingly, lots of people went), Tamara wanted to go snorkeling, dad wanted nature, and I wanted the heritage and temples. We ended up going to a national park which claims to be the most beautiful in Asia. The problem - we only found out on the bus that the 8 hour tour includes nearly 5 hours in the bus. Shit. So I get to see Phuket from the bus window mostly.
They have monkey schools here! They train them to collect coconuts, how awesome is that?
We were just told to be careful not to touch a monk! How exciting.
Mom just had a new theory - that I was Indian in my previous life. I love the clothes, I love the smells of the incense… Those were all her arguments for now. I guess we shall test that theory very soon! Yay.
Our little boat broke right before it was supposed to take us back from the little tiny fishing island of Kahl Lu. The 10 minutes of fixing it was quite an exciting experience.
Phang Nga national park was totally worth it - an awesome bay boat ride, the nature is so beautiful, it seems surreal. It’s just too abduction they have to keep mentioning the fact that a james bond movie was shot here over and over again, as if they have to do it to make people interested. Hmm I wonder if there were any people on the tour that did actually come to look at the James Bond island.
Lunch was kind of disappointing - it was prepared for the tourists, just repeated a thai restaurant menu from north america. no spices whatsoever, I could eat anything, and I can’t do spices at all. The good thing that kind of compensated though, was that we tried the mangosteen fruits, and they were awesome.
We were told that they wouldn’t let you into the temple if ‘you are too sexy’. Tamara’s disappointment at having no problems coming in in her ridiculously short shorts knew no limit.
