Tegan and Sara
Yes-most-definitely!
In small doses, I love it.
Not really my thing, but bearable.
Absolutely not.
I like tegan and/or sara, but not such a fan of the music.

2007/05/29 09:49 Wow. Its been nearly 6 months since I updated here last. I've never been much of a blogger.. my life just isn't that interesting I don't think! Just an update: I've been working at Bluenotes as a Key Holder since January and should be moving up to Assistant Manager by September. I love my job. I have a new lady to keep me busy on my days off. Going to Ottawa for a few days next week. I am no self-control. Or maybe the problem is I can never think of things to say when I finally sit down and do it. Like walking into a record store and suddenly forgetting every album you've written down on your "Must Buy" list. Regardless, I'm still alive -- in fact, much more than ever before. In other news, this made me laugh: http://www.collegehumor.com/video:1761083

2006/12/31 16:11 Tonight is the last nightfall of 2006. It came so quick. Feels like just yesterday I was sitting in my old apartment at College & Landsdowne, by myself, not knowing a single person in this city.
But it was an entire year ago.
This year started out really unfortunately, but turned out to be the absolute greatest year of my life. For about 6 months after I moved to Toronto, I hadn't made any solid friendships or aquiantences. Those whom I did meet didn't really catch on with me and nothing came of it. I moved to Toronto from my hometown smalltown in hopes of finding what I'd never had before -- a feeling of appreciation, peace of mind, and the feeling that I belonged somewhere. To find myself, my true friends and a brand new life and experience. I hadn't found it, and I was ready to move on to somewhere else, with those same hopes, because I didn't think Toronto.. the "big city".. was working out for me.
But that soon changed. I met a lovely girl named Robyn on her birthday, in mid-March. Little did either of us know that night, that that was the official beginning of both a beautiful friendship, and my finding what I came to this city looking for. Robyn introduced me to all of her friends, who welcomed me in with everything they had to offer me. I was absolutley shocked, because I had never been able to open up to anyone like I could with these people -- even having only met them for a night.
Long story short.. those same people are now the greatest people in my life. My confidence has risen like you would never believe, and this once awkwardly shy boy is now more outgoing than I could have ever hoped to be. Each one of you who have become part of my life throughout this year have changed me more than you know, and have made me more happy than you could possibly begin to imagine. Whether on your own, or as a whole.
You've made me who I am... you've helped me become who I've wanted to be for years. You make me feel appreciated, you allow me peace of mind and most importantly, I feel like I belong.
You all know who you are, I couldn't possibly remember every single person to list here. But regardless... I just want to thank every single one of you for making this my greatest, most fun, most uplifting year to date. You'll never know how much your friendship has meant to me and how much I appreciate knowing there are not only one, but at least 10 people out there that I can call if I need to, for anything.
My apologies for the mushiness of this, but it had to be said! haha.
Thank you so much... lets make 2007 even better than 2006!

Drink one for me tonight.
