This is me procrastinating.
Look at me go! Look at me not doing work! Look at me resurrecting something that should have died a long time ago! Look, dammit, look!
So...yeah, this is my old blog. Cree. Py. I just read my old entries, and it occurs to me how intense everything seems in the moment. I can remember pining over Darren and being all sad because high school was over and boo hoo and angst and hurt, but now, it all pales in comparison to my life now. My life NOW. My life at this moment, as I sit at my desk in my apartment on a Friday night after Blues Pub before I start my lab, because I'm going to be an engineer. I served at Blues Pub because I'm an executive. I make executive decisions. I influence the lives of thousands of students. Hell, I take minutes.
I should not be allowed to influence. I'm too young.

So. It's over.
High school is over. It's just over. No more uniforms, no more Mr. Greto, no more PACErs, no more lunchtime in the caf. No more.
Wednesday night was grad. I had a crazy amount of people come just for me considering that we were only allowed two tickets per graduate. Mom, Dad, Aunt Janet, M, V, and Grandma all came just for me. It was pretty cool spending the whole night with Shannon and Adriana..weird, but cool. I was never really close with them, but here we are, chatting it up for three hours. I was the proud recipient of the Catholic Student Award, which my mom said, sarcastically, is a "great way to get dates in university" and the Whitchurch-Stouffville Community Award, which needs no comment.

And that's fine with me.
You were my first boyfriend. I keep going in with expectations. My plan is this: I'll get there looking hot, but still exuding the nerdiness that makes me me. You'll arrive slightly later and I'll be able to tell that you'd forgotten and are pleased. At some point, we'll start looking at the stars and you'll begin to exhale charm and tell me that I'm incredible. And I'll fall for it, but just for the night, because I remember every reason that the spell that captures me now broke then. But just for the night, for the party, while everyone else is in another world, until the mass exodus for tents. And with the zip of my sleeping bag, it all ends, and that's fine. Because I just wanted to lose myself for one night.
But that's never how it turns out. And that's fine with me.

High school is over, la.
So today was like the second last day of high school! Like, OMG! Not cool at all. The girls all rebelled and kilted! I was like the only one that didn't get caught, as far as I know. Score. I felt so hot in my kilt. I mean, who wouldn't?
But man, high school. I've become..content..this year. I mean, I hated cards, so I didn't sit with the card players at lunch. I loved my spare with B and Moe. I didn't hang out with people that make me feel bad. I formed meaningful relationships. I accepted. I didn't judge. I just had fun. I danced in the rain and didn't care what others thought. I changed my necklace everyday. I wore my hair down. I got happy! It was good times.
Next year I'll be at McGill. I'm gonna miss my friends a lot, but I know I'll make new ones. It's gonna be good times. =)

HI IVAN!!!
=) Wow, so indeed, it has been a while since I last updated this thing! Let's see what's new in the wonderful world of Laura.
So the first topic on our list is the OSC! HOLY MOLY, do I ever love it! It's the most superest awesomest school ever and I've met the greatest people ever. Absolutely everyone of the kids in my class are beyond amazing...Jenna!! TWOFIVE! =) Oh man...craziness. I'm gonna be soooo sad to leave...I think we all are. Friday night was our semi formal (semo formo) and I think it really drove home how much we love each other. *sniff* Anyways, happy thoughts. Darren Giglisdflkjefi (or however you spell it) came to see me at the OSC on Friday!! YAY! He's awesome..unlike all the other BA-ers that came to the OSC that same day and didn't tell me beforehand and I had to be like "Ohmigoodness, what are you doing here?" Grr. (It's 11:11, make a wish!) Anyways, OSC is awesome.
Darren. Darren and I are..I have no idea. Meh, I really don't care. =) lol, seriously. I've decided that teen drama should be kept to a minimum as it is a royal waste of time. I don't really think I'll ever fall in love or get married, although I'd like to. I just don't trust that it'll happen to me. That's right, Jenna!! I don't think it'll happen to me! And no one ever likes me! haha
I'm moving. I'm renting a room a fifteen-minute walk from the OSC in January. Cool? I think so. And I'll be living with Corey! And Jenna and Elise will be across the street! And Alex will be next to them! Redwinging it up!
Hm..I'm hungry..and that's good for now. I think I'll go to bed. =) Night!

I am the Music Guru.
Well, not really. But that's what I was called last night by Darren. And I was like..yiyeah, what! Well, no, I was slightly less ghetto and I didn't actually say anything. I probably smiled and laughed. Because I was just darn pleased! He also called me this when I expressed my surprise at the fact that a bunch of seventeen-year-old girls didn't know the words to Britney Spears' Crazy. It's like sacrilege. You can't not know the words. Anyways, I said that I knew ALL the words, which is completely and utterly true. INCLUDING the nonsequetorial "Stop!" from the music video. But my point, Edith, is that...you don't call someone a music guru after they admit they know the lyrics to a Britney song. Usually, you laugh at them. Unless they're talking about Toxic, because that song is just pure genius. Sigh...anyways...music is just awesome. And I love it. I am SO Queen-y these days! And Billy Joel-y! I want an iPod.
Speaking of Darren, I can't help but feel like he laughs a little at me and the fact that I'm religious. But he can absolutely BITE ME. I will not back down. Nor should I have to. So I won't.
So I saw him last night at Kate's birthday party. It was fun! I finally got a group of people to play Out. PACErs? Remember Out? How much fun was that?! Aww, man, what was the other game? Sam's Bowling? Bowling for Ed? Ed's Alley!! Wow, can't believe I remembered that one. Anyways, at some point we changed it to Horse. Then Balloon. I totally lost my touch. But it was still fun. And we played Manhunt!!
Ugh, this is useless.
