I miss My Croats on Boats!

Totally Shameless and self indulgent post for today .....enjoy the view! Is there any better reason to go!

Home.....

How excited am I to be going home next week! Even for a few days..... It confuses me though. I love Halifax with every last fiber in my body but I feel like a trapped animal when I am there for more then 2 months. Perhaps I could live there now but I am not ready yet, there is something about being home. Isn't there? A feeling of comfort, familarity and memories, but then again there is a desire to live a different life. I think I am doing that for myself right now. Banff is definately not the ideal place to live but it is getting me closer to where I want and need to be. I hope you are doing the same........Living for you!

Believe........

Expect the unexpected..... even if it is at 7:45am and it lasts only a moment. Believe in it!

Congrats are in order....

Congrats to 2 of my favorite people......Max and Mandy! Although I don't e-mail you nearly as much as I should I wanted to give you a huge shout out. Congrats on the wedding! These two are very special to me and I am ecstatic in this annoucement! After what I am sure was a beautiful proposal while cruising around Hawaii, these 2 just couldn't wait to make it offical. You cannot deny true love! I miss you guys. Wishing you a lifetime together and continued laughter for the rest your lives!

Hali Famous Locals working the Halifax Scene...

During my daily peruse of the Halifax Herald I stumbled across these two names on numerous occasions, Rebekah Higgs and Spesh K. Although one is only someone who went to school with me. (Spesh K) Rebekah whom I haven't spoken to in years, always had a natural flair for preforming for an audience. I probably haven't seen her for more then a few minutes since junior high. I love that aspect of Halifax providing an outlet to let these artists, both very different in their target audience expose their talent. Check them both out respectfully at their ECMA showcases if you can grab a few minutes from your busy schedules!

From the Chronicle Herald:

...the Music Nova Scotia showcase is in the roomier confines of the Seahorse Tavern, with Rebekah Higgs, Steven Bowers, Jill Barber, Hotshotrobot, Carmen Townsend and Dr. Dfunkt.
If you’re not in the mood to bar hop, this is the perfect spot to park your keister.
Onward and upward, the next stop was the 72-Hour Jam, at the foot of Citadel Hill in The New Palace. At this point it was a mini hip-hop showcase, with Wordburglar, Spesh K and Ghettosocks tag teaming through an hour-and-a-half of boisterous and clever rhyme spitting. The crowd wasn’t as big as it could have been, but the night was relatively young by New Palace and 72-Hour Jam standards.

How much do I love that I haven't been in the newspaper since I was 4 years old. That was because I was getting a facepainting by a clown on the Halifax Commons! Loves it!

Much respected shout out to Spesh K. I don't know that I ever met him but his stuff is really good. Check it out: http://homepage.mac.com/baldassarre/Copernicus/iMovieTheater45.html

Very cool video, from doing a little research on the web I hear it's got quite a bit of rotation on MuchMusic!

Some his Songs can be heard as well on CBC Radio: http://radio3.cbc.ca/nmc/artist.aspx?name=SPESH-K&readmore=true - 18k - or great site on him http://www.urbnet.com/speshk/index2.html

or try googling him. Trust me it is definately worth your time!

WOW... just been doing some research on Rebekah on the web! I had no idea! Check her out!http://www.rebekahhiggs.com/index2.html and www.myspace.com/rebekahhiggs

I absoultly need to pick up one of her numerous CD's when I am back in Halifax! Is it odd that I feel proud, I really excitied to check this out totally wish I was able to go to their shows on the week-end!

Update: I have actually been able to listen to a few of her tracks on CBC Radio one, Honey you are going far! Her stuff is truely amazing. I am blown away by this girls talent! I can't wait to see what she'll come up with next!

Things to watch out for when your making out....

Hopefully Nicole and Joel are safe...

I have just read a startling discovery......

Did you know that the bacteria that cause most Stomach ulcers in transmitted back and forth from "significant others".....What??!!

So next time your making out remember to think before you stuck out your toungue because you could get ulcers, herpes of the lip and stalking if your not careful who you smooch!

Cheers

Beware of the Make Out Bandits!!

And Never Make Out with Kevin Federline!!! Oh Brit what where you thinking??!
