Worst to Best.

Yesterday I didn't have a class until 2 which always puts me in a good mood. I mean who doesn't love not having to get up before noon? Well my cat doesn't. He thought I should be up at 8 which isn't too bad, but still started my day off poorly.
Also, my iPad has broken, it's been broken for about a week so I thought since I was already up I would head down to the apple store to get it checked out. When I got there I thought it was my lucky day, there were about 3 people not wearing one of those dumb "genius" shirts. I head down to the counter and talk to one of the guys there. He asked if I had an appointment, I said no to which he replied that I needed one in order to speak to someone. I said okay, when's the next slot? Oh we don't have one until 5. I looked around me, there was virtually no one in the store! He wouldn't even take my iPad to have it checked, so I left. Then I went to Chapters to finish the reading I had to do and I like the atmosphere so I figured it would make me feel better. As I was sitting down I pulled out my book and the back cover ripped.
Then, as I was getting on the bus, the zipper on my favorite leather jacket breaks. So I was trapped in my jacket and couldn't get it off.
As I got to school I was certain that my day couldn't be any worse. I walked through the hall way and see two of my friends who cut me out of the jacket laugh both at me and with me.
I got to my Lit class and had a blast with the people who are pretty fantastic, then I got everything I needed to get done, done. Except for my iPad, that is still sitting on my desk making me angry.
This goes to show that a really bad day can indeed go well.

Thanksgiving, be Thankful for where we live

Autumn has to be the best time of the year, everything is pretty darn perfect! We get a three day weekend, things look really pretty, and the scarf options are endless!
So Friday, as soon as my class was done a couple girlfriends and I headed towards Montreal to celebrate a birthday, which was soo great! There really isn't anything like Montreal on a Friday night.
When I made my way towards my parents house for the whole turkey shindig, I realized how absolutely fantastic the trees look. Also, turkey, oh my goodness, turkey is fantastic! When you get that on piece of dressing that is just the right amount of crispy, you have quite a bit to be thankful for. The colours of the trees are at their peek, and if you can take advantage of that I strongly suggests you do. My mum, dad and I went for the nicest hike.
I can't remember the last time I did and enjoyed it so much. So if you haven't already, bundle up, go outside, and take advantage of this time of year! You won't regret it!
