There's enough of me to go around

Like how to deal with some girl breaking your heart

Sat behind Ignatieff while he spoke to students, faculty, and alumni of Dalhousie. Pretty glamarous.

Got fitted for a dress to wear in the February fashion show. Sounds like an interesting pattern. I get to try it on on Friday.

Finished watching the third and final season of Veronica Mars tonight. What to do with all my free time?

God keep our land glorious and free

Apparently Michael Ignatieff is speaking at Dalhousie tomorrow afternoon. How do I know this? My presence at the event has been requested. I'm not much of a pol, so why am I being summoned? I kid you not - I've been asked to sit behind Ignatieff and be a "good looking person" (their words, not mine) in the background for all of the photo ops. I guess they didn't want any ugly real Liberal supporters ruining the photos.

My dreams, they aren't as empty as my conscience used to be

If you've seen the movie Up In The Air with George Clooney, then you will surely know of the Backpack theory (referred to as What's In Your Backpack?). Basically, we go through our lives with a backpack on filled with family, friends, acquaintances, possessions, etc etc, and they weigh us down. Clooney's character suggests emptying the backpack (he actually says to burn it, but I think that may be extreme when we're talking about people). If you've seen the movie, then perhaps you learn the life lesson that you don't really want to empty, or burn, the backpack. I, on the other hand, have decided that emptying the backpack is good. Emptying also being extreme; I like to call it lessening the load. However, there's people and things I can't seem to throw out, so to speak. Kind of like when I go through my Facebook friends list. There are people I don't speak to, care about, or even bother to creep, but I can't seem to delete them from the list. Maybe that's why you're supposed to burn the backpack - no discrimination.

From sea to shining sea

Met with a photographer today to discuss his concept for a shoot. Turns out he wants to do some headshots inspired by a European magazine called Dazed. He also wants me to sport one of his designs in a fashion show in February. Not sure what I have gotten myself into, but it should be fun. Professional hair and make-up, yes please.

On a whim, bought a ticket for the PostSecret event coming up in a few weeks. Frank Warren will be here to give a talk. Pretty excited.

Went for martinis and appetizers with some of my roommates tonight at Victor's. I had a Blue Zen (which I liked) and an Anti-Freeze (which I did not like).

Say my name, say my name

Apparently taking grainy webcam pictures of yourself can get you involved in modeling. Who knew? Built-in HP webcam, you are opening so many doors for me.

I wanna wake up where you are

Beneath this hardened, cold exterior?

Coal. Black, black coal.
