Update
Author: Ams
Je suis tired so I’m going to write in points.
- 1. I suck at updating. Sorry! I’ve been relaxing after Masters terms of hell. I went home after I was done my last paper and I don’t feel like blogging from there for some reason.
- 2. The wedding was good and the cake was delicious. There were a few awkward moments which I am still trying to figure out. Check my FB for pics.
- 3. I’m leaving for India in a week. I’ll be gone for two and a half weeks with my family. I’m looking forward to it, despite the fact that it will be monsoon season. UGH!
- 4. I got a cute new pair of flats. If my camera wasn’t le shit I would post a pic. They were on sale too. Yay! =D
- 5. Jack got back safely from his Asia trip and he had a great time.
Hopefully I will post before I leave. If not, take care and I will write when I get back. Ta ta!
read comments (2)My Shoes Are In But My Feet Aren’t

I recently made my first online purchase of shoes a couple of weeks ago from Zappos.com. I was hoping that my shoes would arrive at my parent’s house last week so that I could try them on this weekend to see if they fit. Well just my luck - they arrived yesterday. So now I have to wait a while before I can see if they fit. I really hope they do because it costs $15 to send them back. I really hate how U.S. residents get free shipping and Canada has to pay customs and shipping charges. Why can’t companies have locations in Canada? It’s so annoying.
I feel really tired today. I’m not sure why exactly. I went to bed at 11:30 and woke up at 7:45, which I think it’s plenty of sleep for a grad student. I thought it was because I was hungry, but I just ate my lunch…so what’s up? Maybe my body gets tired from knowing all the deadlines that are coming up in the next two weeks and how impossible it is for me to meet all of them. Did I mention how tired of school I am?

Oh man, I can’t believe it’s been so long since I’ve posted. I was supposed to post an entry I made earlier, but my mom told me not to >_>. *sigh* Anyway, I went to Boston for the Canada Day weekend with Jack and his family to visit his older sister. It was fun, but since I was on my period I felt all bung for the first day. Stupid period >_>. Thankfully we had really good weather because otherwise I would have been extremely bung. We saw quite a few things including, part of the Harvard University campus, the New England Aquarium and went on a Duck Tour. The tour was a lot of fun: lots of things to see, a pleasant ride (thanks to good weather) and a very entertaining guide. It’s called a duck tour because we travel around Boston on “an authentic, renovated World War II amphibious landing vehicle”. That was quoted from their site, btw. I would not want to get into an accident with it while I was driving. Instant death!
I have to admit that part of the tour went over my head because there were a lot of references to American history. And let’s face it, the only thing I really remember about American history is the fact that Canada burnt down their White House. So some of the monuments were just pretty to me rather than having much significane. Along with that, there were a lot of American tourists since Indepence day was that week too. One of the benefits of this was that there were mega sales going on. And if anyone has been to Massachusetts before (btw, Massachusetts is a really weird spelling), you will know that they don’t have tax on clothes and shoes. So I bought my first pair of grown-up boots. I feel like such an adult now. They are absolutely beautiful. Everytime I wear them I keep taking not-so-subtle peeks at them just because they bring me so much joy. And since I have size 5-5 1/2 feet, they look uber cute. I got them on sale too! Also since the Canadian dollar is doing REALLY well lately, I saved a hella lotta moolah. Ams is tres content. Here is a pic of them.
So the trip was very enjoyable. I love spending time with my Jacku. It’s also interesting to see how he interacts with his family, especially his sisters. He is such a brother. What’s up with boys being all lovey dovey with their girlfriends and then being annoying pests to their sisters? Haha. I’m so glad I don’t have brothers. Anyway, here are some pics of the two of us. The first was taken on the duck and the second was with us wearing our super cool 3-D glasses after watching an IMAX film. ^_^
[EDIT] The pictures in this post have been deleted. [/EDIT]
You can really tell how small my face is when I wear those glasses. Stupid small face >_>. Well that is all from me since this post is so long. I will post soon since I have quite a bit to blog about. Ta ta everyone. =)
My Church Was On The Food Network!
Author: Ams
I was watching I Do Let’s Eat on the Food Network and I thought the people looked familiar. And then they showed my home church on the show and I was screaming, “That’s my church! That’s my pastor! It’s pastor Jamie!” Haha…I was so excited that I knew people on tv. I know it sounds cheesy, but it’s cool. The episode was Marsha and Chad. Man, I want to be on the food network. The food looks so good!
In other news, I really miss Froggy. Two weeks without him is just killing me. Even my roommates are asking when Froggy is going to be back (except Ness because she hates animals >_>). I’m going home on Thursday night so I’ll get to see him then. I hope he is missing me as much as I’m missing him. Oh heck, why don’t I just throw in some random pictures of us. FROGGY! I MISS YOU!
