Story of the day:
Today was starting out like most days, I get up, get ready, go to work. ( I work at the hospital btw)
On the way to work I talked on my phone to my friend and she was telling me that the hospital was on lockdown... This being unusual I thought heh I work soon enough I am just going to grab a coffee and go like normal. Also thinking that this friend usually exaggerates so no big deal.
So I get to the starbuck near work and aw what a lovely coffee is cafe verona... anyways, time to go to work. I get there and see lots of cops and a crowd at the front entrance. They weren't letting anyone in (or out?) So getting closer to the entrance I see a van load of housekeeping friends and they tell me the scoop about this code black ... in other words bomb threat. This didn't seem to phase them at all so I didn't let it get to me. So I stop and chat and then go towards the entrance and join the crowd.
There was a security gaurd and a police man at the front along with my manager, she was asking when her people can get back to work, and then points at me and says 'Oh Aria can come in now' and before you know it, I am walking into this uncleared building while it is still being searched etc.
I guess it seemed safe? I mean it wasn't being evacuated or anything right?
Ah well, about an hour later the PA came on and says ' Code black ended' or something or another. The end.
There is my story of the day. Safe and sound and still not knowing if my life was in real danger today or not. Thinking to myself was I stupid to enter? I don't know.
But suposedly these happen ever few months or so?
Ah well, no blood guts and gore today.... though yesterday in maternity.... hahahahahaha never mind.
Fruity?
Am I a food oriented person? Perhaps. Fruity? likely.
but I do love these pictures I found years and years ago.

snow snow go away. go visit california.
I am not a fan of snow anymore. Today I woke up thinking ooo maybe it will be sunny like the last week! no.
Snow everywhere and coming down in heaps and bounds. Oh well, I can't change it, the only thing I can change is where I live, but I can't even do that right now.
So I will live with this snow I guess.
At least it's pretty?
I go to work today but first is a stop in starbucks for a nice coffee. I got a couple cards that you can redeem songs through itunes from there, right beside the counter where you get the coffee. It's lovely. I love new music so hey! let's get some.
I also love having friends that work there. The other day I came in and my friend was working behind the counter. She wondered what I was up to and my mentioning physio and then work, she said 'ooh! this one's on the house today!'
Ah that made my day for sure. The day went so well ah I think about it and sigh. hahaha
So on the to do list this week -
Paperwork for work
Contact workmans comp and tell them I am being screwed over at work.
Call Dell and tell them I screwed up my lappy.
But today!
Go by bus to work
Sit and drink some coffee while I read a lovely new book (not sure what yet though)
then walk another block to work
until 11pm
then watch something, maybe 30Rock before sleepy time.
Sounds like an okay day... hope it goes as okay as it looks if not better.

Music of today - Jon Foreman
I bought a new cd. It's been ages, but it's good to to.
Jon Foreman (the lead singer from SwitchFoot) made a CD called Limbs and Branches.
Here is a song
The Cure For Pain
I quite enjoy this type of music. The mellowish folky indie kind of stuff is what I listen to a lot a lot.

Moby
Moby was playing on shuffle on my laptop just now. I like it occasionally. I remembered seeing the video ages ago so I thought I would post it. There are two songs and it seems a continuing story through the video.
First is In This World
Second is Sunday

New layout! once again!
I've been wanting to do a new layout for a long time now, and I finally got to it. I googled an image of a coffee cup and voila!
The past couple days I've been looking for a new layout/ template but couldn't find one I really liked - the premade ones you can just google -blogger template and there are a bazillion but no not one that I could find that would work for me.
So I had to make my own.
One question though, pink or brown?
this blog vs. this blog
lol I just looked at my blog again and it made me laugh... all those random pictures with such a pretty looking layout.... hahaha so random.

Oldies
Today I was looking at some old folders on my hard-drive and I found some pictures.
Some made me laugh, and then cringe, and then change the picture really fast hahaha ... the horror of school years and braces...
Here are a couple good ones though :)
A very memorable sleepover... we were slugs. I have video to prove it.
My two best friends on their moving day. Moving from Vancouver back to Chilliwack back to school and all that jazz.
A day at Value Villiage with Miranda and Tony.

I like skype and webcams
Lovely picture eh?Skype is so very handy. You can see, talk, and type at the same time and it can be so much more personal than the phone. Yet the only problem is that you can't take it with you everywhere. Whatever.
The three siblings on Christmas ^^
Happy New Year everyone!
It's that time of year to buy that year gym membership and use it once!
It's that time to lose half my body weight too!
Bah humbug to new years resolutions, I don't like them very much and I don't really have any.
I've been tagged by Miranda.
The name of the game is to open the 4th picture folder on your computer and post the 4th picture from that folder on your blog.
Then you need to describe it.
Then you get to tag 4 people to do the same.
This is from California Adventure Park - across from Disneyland.
I was taking pictures with the 'aria' in 'California', and here is one of the A's.
It's now on my wall along with a bunch of other pictures.
I will now tag Meredith, Katie, and James.
(and you probably are already tagged but I needed to tag someone!)
blog much?
I haven't blogged much lately, mostly because I just didn't feel like it at all.
But I should have, mostly because I've been sitting around the house lately.
And I have been sitting around because I screwed up my knee badly at work last week.
The Doctor gave me some pain killers and anti-inflammatory meds.
Then since the anti-inflammatories felt like they were ripping my stomach apart, in two, and then stomping on it, I went back and got another pill for my stomach.
But no, it doesn't work at all, and neither does the pain killer for my stomach.
It's plain awful so I have been very cranky lately.
It doesn't help that the nursing program ends the application period in January for the September 08' year. This means - Aria doesn't have her full driver's licence so cannot apply (as well as an up to date first-aid)
So, this ticking me off, and realizing all that procrastinating screwed me over.
I keep saying 'this year is school' but things come up and I put it off, or problems come up and it's out the door with that plan.
Hopefully this year all my ducks will be in a row and I can apply with peace of mind.
Well that is all for now, I am going to bed, or to read.
Later days.

Still 6 days!
well it is still 6 days left... I just realized that "oh... it's not 2 minutes... it's now less than an hour..." so I will write some more
The other day we were in the same room with a French Canadian Separatist- Quebecois, and a Newfie. My oh my there are many varities of Canadians out there. The newfie accent made me cringe actually at first. It was just so shocking. I haven't met anyone from there before with such an accent!
Yesterday, I went shopping. I haven't really let myself buy anything big at all this trip because I am carrying it all which sucks. But yesterday was the day I was waiting for. The place I was waiting for... Primark. oo la la!
Super cheap clothes, lots of them, and it is the end of my trip so I think I can suffer at carrying a heavier pack for a little while longer.
Yesterday I got £6 jeans, £6 shirt, and £1.50 tee.
Yay for cheap clothes. like 30 whole dollars!
Today I hope to hit up a market but Susan is a party pooper and doesn't want to come so I may just go alone if I get there in time
Anyways, it is time to book our last hostel!
Salut!

6 whole days!
Well, it is 6 days until I go home.
Today is Guy Fawks day, (I don't know if I spelt it correctly or not btw). We (we means 2 aussie girls from our hostel that we made friends with (both named Laura how convienient!), and Susan and I) are going to go watch some fire works and go to a bon fire tonight to celebrate.
Remember remember the 5th of November....
Any excuse to light fireworks and fires is a good excuse.
Hopefully we will get some marshmallows.
Yesterday we went on a big-ol-free-tour and saw the sights of London.
Today we are headed to the Royal Museum and Art Gallery. To see the London Bridge, the platform 9 3/4 and Paddington Station (those are the hopefuls)
Yesterday we saw.... dun dun dun BOND. James Bond. in theaters. In London. It was cool, but the only theater we could find cost an arm and a leg. yikes, but still, it was cool seeing it here.
Ah 2 minutes warning. bloody computers! will have to go now.
