Well it’s April, and that means exams.  All that has been taking place right now is studying, and i cannot wait till my last exam is finished on the 26th. 

Played some poker on thursday, I WON!  Staged the greatest comeback in poker history!  Short stack with 4 outa 10 people left on the table.  And it all started with my lucky cards 2 and 4.  Had some good plays going there tho.

a scene that i just wanted to save that i really like(going to be using this as quote storage)… it is from Shakespeare in Love:

VIOLA AS THOMAS
                     (catching up)
                 Yes, my aunt. But perhaps she wept a
                 little. Tell me how you love her,
                 Will.

                           WILL
                 Like a sickness and its cure together.

                           VIOLA AS THOMAS
                 Yes, like rain and sun, like cold and
                 heat.
                     (collecting herself)
                 Is your lady beautiful? Since I came
                 to visit from the country, I have not
                 seen her close. Tell me, is she
                 beautiful?

                           WILL
                 Oh, if I could write the beauty of her
                 eyes! I was born to look in them and
                 know myself.

       He is looking into VIOLA’S eyes. She holds his look, but
       WILL belies his words.

                           VIOLA AS THOMAS
                 And her lips?

                           WILL
                 Oh, Thomas, her lips! The early
                 morning rose would wither on the
                 branch, if it could feel envy!

                           VIOLA AS THOMAS
                 And her voice? Like lark song?

                           WILL
                 Deeper. Softer. None of your
                 twittering larks! I would banish
                 nightingales from her garden before
                 they interrupt her song.

                           VIOLA AS THOMAS
                 She sings too?

                           WILL
                 Constantly. Without doubt. And plays
                 the lute, she has a natural ear. And
                 her bosom–did I mention her bosom?

                           VIOLA AS THOMAS
                     (glinting)
                 What of her bosom?

                           WILL
                 Oh Thomas, a pair of pippins! As round
                 and rare as golden apples!

VIOLA AS THOMAS
                 I think the lady is wise to keep your
                 love at a distance. For what lady
                 could live up to it close to, when her
                 eyes and lips and voice may be no more
                 beautiful than mine? Besides, can a
                 lady born to wealth and noble marriage
                 love happily with a Bankside poet and
                 player?

                           WILL
                     (fervently)
                 Yes, by God! Love knows nothing of
                 rank or riverbank! It will spark
                 between a queen and the poor vagabond
                 who plays the king, and their love
                 should be minded by each, for love
                 denied blights the soul we owe to God!
                 So tell my lady, William Shakespeare
                 waits for her in the garden!

Well I just found out that I will be heading to the Junos this sunday!!!  Wow I am so excited!  Never thought we would get tickets, but i guess it helps when your mom works for CTV.  Hmmm who to talk, I believe I will be asking a special lady tonight if she would like to join me that evening…  Should be good times, I even got a backup just incase the first one can’t make it.

Looking forward to NLDC, the western region is gonna be so Big Bucket!  Can’t wait to see my friends from all across Canada.  Jonny if you are reading this, i expect you to uphold your promise of everynight being "tie on the head" night!  I’ll be there with you bud!

Ya not much going on at the moment, cept prep for exams.  I hope I have a more interesting update for you in the future.  I leave you now with lyrics from my favorite song.

Favorite song of the moment: Hey there Delilah

hey there delilah
whats it like in new york city
im a thousand miles away
but girl tonight you look so pretty
yes you do
time square cant shine as bright as you
i swear its true

hey there delilah
dont you worry about the distance
im right there if you get lonely
give this song another listen
close your eyes
listen to my voice its my disguise
im by your side

oh its what you do to me
oh its what you do to me
oh its what you do to me
oh its what you do to me
what you do to me

hey there delilah
i know times are gettin hard
but just believe me girl
someday ill pay the bills with this guitar
we’ll have it good
we’ll have the life we knew we would
my word is good

hey there delilah
ive got so much left to say
if every simple song i wrote to you
would take your breath away
id write it all
even more in love with me youd fall
we’d have it all

oh its what you do to me
oh its what you do to me
oh its what you do to me
oh its what you do to me

a thousand miles seems pretty far
but they’ve got planes and trains and cars
id walk to you if i had no other way
our friends would all make fun of us
and we’ll just laugh along because we know
that none of them have felt this way
delilah i can promise you
that by the time that we get through
the world will never ever be the same
and youre to blame

hey there delilah
you be good and dont you miss me
two more years and youll be done with school
and ill be makin history like i do
you know its all because of you
we can do whatever we want to
hey there delilah heres to you
this ones for you

oh its what you do to me
oh its what you do to me
oh its what you do to me
oh its what you do to me
what you do to me
