A busy weekend. A very busy weekend..



I arrived at work on Friday with a real feeling of excitement, because I knew that come 9:30 I was going to be leaving my lanyard and headset, and walking out of American Eagle as an employee for the last time.
(I did manage to get a photo of the other associates working that shift with me (fig.. whatever) but the rest of my fellow employees got off work early so they weren't able to be snapped. From the left: Ronnie (one of the store's managers), Petra, Heather, and myself.)
Of course, before I left, I made a short trip to the handy bank and took advantage of my employee discount while it lasted. Good fun I say.
After walking out the shop door for the last time, I caught a cab and ventured to the Navy Base on Deadman's Island for the St. Patrick's day party the navy gang had organised.
It was good fun, though the prize for best-dressed did go to a Scotsman... (I can't complain, I walked out of there with a small green hat, which was the prize for drinking a Car-Bomb with four other attendees..)
Saturday morning arrived, and I woke up in North Vancouver at a mate's cousin's house. Feeling slightly groggy, the six people that stayed the night and I went to watch a rugby game at the local sports ground, and then returned home to prepare for a toga party that night..
We ended up playing a big game of Cranium (the board game) and were up until at least two-o'clock, but I lost track of time around one so I can't be sure when it was that I actually went to bed.
Anyway, finally Sunday morning rolled around, and up we got, ready for a birthday party. This time it was at UBC (University of British Columbia) and I spent the afternoon on a scavenger hunt around campus (photos have yet to be given to me but I'll get them..). Good fun I say again..

And now, I'm going to go lie down..
It's been a busy weekend..

Hey James...
Gotta be quick (about to get banished from the computer because it's apparantly "group email time" and Annie took too long writing her message) Hope you're having one fabulous time in Canada! You are surely missed by all.
Kudos on the green barret.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY... you're even older than you were before. That means you're an old man. We're going to watch a movie (cos we thought we'd spice things up a bit... we even have food... ahhh thats not like us)
Tay wants you back before the formal. See you on May 13th the flights already booked.
Love us all,
The coolest people in the world.
P.S. Claire is still as ugly as ever. Just wanted to keep you updated.

Dear James Wilson,
Due to the fact that you have not yet replied to our messages within a suitable time frame of 12hours. We hereby revoke all our wishes of good hope and a happy birthday.
You only have yourself to blame.
Sincerely,
The Anti-Claire movement.
P.S. Even though we're upset with you it our duty to inform you that Claire is still as unattractive as ever.

Dear Anti-Claire Movement (a.k.a: ACM),

My sincerest apologies on my untimely response. Let it be known from here on that vodka and dance music are not to be taken in high doses at any one time, and that crashing at your friend's place and then watching info-mercials the next morning for 2 hours are to blame for the above lateness..
Thank you all for your kind words, and long live ZEDAR! KING OF ALL UNHOLIES!

Love yas all!

Jimzip :D
