07/07

Look at that, 07/07.
A good date, lucky even.

But what is luck anyway: (in no order mind you)

1) finding a penny on the curb dated your year: 1977 (look more 7's)
2) getting to know someone that turns out to be incredible not sour
3) watching the sunrise due to the lucky effects of Saphire Gin
4) getting lucky (of course!)
5) living in North America
6) being allowed to vote, no tanks involved.
7) supporting a good charity (they are the lucky ones)
8) finding peppermint patty the pez dispenser after 13 pez collecting years
9) a good hairdresser
10) having great siblings
11) catching a fly with chopsticks
12) waiting 7 years to discover someone all over again


I speak of luck, as this is what the polar bears need to survive on into the next century. I read this today:

So go support WWF, and the fight to conserve wildlife, no not wildlife of the sweaty wrestling sort, but the animals. But I felt alright as I have helped. No not in the destruction, but in the conservation. I had adopted a Polar Bear and a Tiger for my sister for xmas. Adopt an animal? Yes you can do this, hell you can even buy a whale if you have room for one!

I am sad to hear of such destruction and loss of animal life, let alone human life in this world. But most people choose to do nothing about any issue. Apathy is a difficult thing for me to understand. They say one person cant change the world, but look how annoying one mosquito is in your tent!

I think about who Jalen and Kennedy will become now that they are born into this world. I think about how different life will be when they are my age. I wonder where they will be and where their dreams will take them.
I spoke to my brother last night and he seemed so positive despite all of
the shit that hits his family on a regular basis. I think he is really strong, has a good value system and knows what it is REALLY like to be in LOVE. At times, I envy him for what he has, but dont get me wrong! I am proud of where I am in this world, and it has been hard for me to make it this far; and also on my own. I shouldnt be called a
materialistic bitch for my level of ambition should I? didnt think so.

But words do hurt.

And I choose to stay in Montreal for Christmas as this truly is MY real life. 8 years seems like a long time to be shelling out 1K a year for a family that doesnt care to make a .10 phonecall all year to see whats goin on in my SUPERIOR life over here. So why do I have to justify this?
I just want to be with my friends that LOVE me and KNOW me. I will be 27. If you can, ask yourself: where were you at 27? then get back to me.
I also dont like being used as an xmas boycotting PATSI by other xmas fleeting family members, despite that being my name.

I dont want to upset anyone, but you will have to think of the upset I feel each and every day that I dont hear from anyone except my friends.


So as for my brother, I wish him all the luck in the world with his family and I am proud to be his sister.



I really want to see where I will be on:

Somewhere I can smile peacefully: this is my lucky wish.
