Batteries and Holidays

I really need to get some new batteries for my camera. I'm just itching to go take more photos. There are so many things that I can take pictures of around this city that I just love. It's great when you can finally see the place you live as something good (at least some of the time).

I decided to play around with a photo in Photoshop that I took a little while ago. It's not really all that different from the original I don't think but I like it nonetheless. It's the where the creek near my house comes out from under my street. That's a bad description but whatever :p

I need a vacation. I would love nothing more than to get in the car and just drive. I want to see the country. I love Canada and I'd love to be able to see more of it. Other than Ontario (which I live in) I've been to BC, Quebec, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. I have five Provinces and the three Territories left to see. Technically, I've been to Manitoba as well but that was only to the airport in Winnipeg and I never got off the plane. Anywhoo, I really want to travel across the country and see it. It's such a beautiful place and I love it to bits. It'd take a while to see it all since Canada's really big :P That was a reference to The Arrogant Worms.

I want to go west in July of next year but I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to. I'm not working currently and if I'm going to take a huge trip I'm going to need lots of money. I'm also going to have to buy my own car. Woo! Hope is not lost but I don't really know what my odds are of it working out. Time will tell I guess :)

Older photos

I was looking through some older digital photos I took today. I came across this one that I took in February. The sun was setting and I liked how it looked. The picture doesn't capture it as well but it's still cool. There are a couple of other churches around the city that I'd like to get pictures of. I like them architecturally. There are some pretty funky buildings around this city.

Short for an update but I can't really think of anything all that interesting to post about. Ack!

The Improv Show audition

So, I tried out for the Improv Show. I bombed at it but I had fun. I'm so glad that I did it. Any other time I would have chickened out but this time I tried and that's quite the feat for me. I didn't do as badly as I probably would have years ago had I tried this then. My mind drew a complete blank when I had to get up with two others and do a scene. It was unfortunate that it had to be right then. It happens though.

At least with trying it this time, I know I can try again with the next opportunity. There's another Improv thing I might be able to try for. It's not the same calibre as the Improv Show but it would be a start.

I'm just so happy with myself for trying. It feels really good. I know I'm not going to be picked for the show and that's just fine. I went there to have fun and that was it. I had fun so it was a success. I also proved to myself that I can do things if I really want to. If I don't chicken out, I'll see what I can really do and have fun at the same time.

Go me!!!

Designing

I need to figure out the Blogger code and whatnot so I can make my own layout. I like this template a lot but I like making my own layouts. I prefer to be original :) The green of this template is quite soothing. Maybe I'll make a green layout. Mmmmm, soothing.

I have to finish my Worms site that I'm working on. I haven't really touched it in over a week. I have to finish up a page of pictures, write the Wormography and write something for the main page. I'm stumped as to what I can write about them. There's only so much information out there and I don't want to use the same stuff everyone else does. There's always the option of e-mailing the Worms and asking them some stuff so I can put it on my site. I don't want to bug them though so I probably won't do that. I'm not sure though. After those three things get done I could open the site officially even though all the lyrics aren't up. The only album I have all the lyrics for is Toast!. The others will have to get finished over time.

Yay for boring website information! WooHoo! It's getting late and I have to be up in less than four hours. I should go to bed. I think I shall. Night.

New Beginning

So, I've finally decided to use this blog. I set up an account on Blogger ages ago and never used it. I tend to do that a lot. You've got to love when you start something and then never finish it (or use it in my case).

Yay! It's The Arrogant Worms!!!

So, that's it for my first real post in here. Here's to many more :)
