Okay so I apologize for having posted the coming soon message, I just had been so exhausted for some reason yesterday that I had to get sleep and couldn't really write or think.
Anyway, what happened yesterday? It was a relatively busy day, banking to deposit some checks, Rogers Video to get a video game and return some, and then work with Chris. Now what do I need to talk about today? Nothing really, I just have nothing to talk about. Sad isn't it? But hopefully tomorrow, I'll have a more substantial post :p. (By tomorrow I mean later tonight lol).
Autism-wise, the only thing that happened was lingering on talking about Iron Man 2 the video game. My parents had to tell me to drop it in order to stop me from talking about it.
So short post today because I've got a headache and really just want to sleep. I had a regular day, work, tutoring, Desperate Housewives, and Brothers & Sisters. It was just a pretty quick day, and that's basically all there is to it.
Autism-wise the only thing that happened was a lack of sleep because I had been home alone. It's funny it happened since I actually did pretty well prior to last night. It's just because my mind can't just accept the fact no one is going to break in, seeing as how the only people who broke in once before was someone I considered my friend. So that's basically all tonight.
So today was Council Turnover where we switch from the old Students Council to the new one. It was a relatively normal meeting. We discussed the ending of the council, passed some motions, and had brunch at the Mandarin buffet which is probably what about Turnover I look forward to the most. It was a very long meeting though, going from 10AM until past 6:30PM and was still going on when I left at 6:30. I have to admit, there is one aspect that I just disliked about council. If you recall, I went for VP Operations whose duties include managing the policy committee, and I think one reason I didn't get it was because of not having experience with Policy Committee. The problem I'm talking about is because I once again did not get elected to Policy Committee. So I'm talking about this because it is a bit of hypocrisy. They tell me inadvertently that I need the experience on Policy Committee since this is basically the only experience I DON'T have...since I've been with council going on four years now, and 9 years altogether, and yet they don't vote for me to be on it. It seems that this happens every time though so I guess I'm just going to have to deal with it.
I'm not saying the three who got on it won't do a good job, I know they will, but it's just annoying that I have the most experience on council and working WITH the VP Operations, and yet, still nothing. But if I ever run for that again (I doubt I will, I'm just mentioning) then I will make note to them that they did not elect me into the committee so if I don't have that experience, it is because they made that happen, not me. The good thing though is apparently I got a relatively good amount of votes though so at least I still got votes. I apologize if any council members read this and it offends you. I'm not trying to be rude or anything, just stating my personal opinion that's all.
After council, and I must apologize for the rant, I just needed to say that. Anyway, after council was the final improv show of King's Players. It was a lot of fun and now we're here. I would have gone more into the improv show longer but that's basically all I'm saying.
Autism-wise, I suppose the thing that happened was my rant about council. I've been on about it most of the night and just can't leave it. Maybe I will at some point, but for now just can't get off it.
So interesting news, it's spring now and yet it's snowing out annoyingly. It was a normal day, and I headed back home with my parents around 12 noon. I was so tired though that when I did get home, I wound up sleeping for five hours.. Though I did get woken up twice, once at three and another at four because my nephew Mason had come over. Funny thing is, whenever my mom brings him in to say "hi" (since he can't really talk yet, that's why I use the quotations) he began getting frightened. I think he just doesn't like how I look when sleeping or half-awake, so bedhead and such. It's quite funny in my opinion.
Work was fine, I took Chris to a dance that was held by Community Living Elgin. He didn't dance or anything but he just wanted to go for some reason. I think this was where the autism sort of...came up, because I always got worried if like he was communicating with a girl because he kind of acts a little odd around girls, because he almost acts inappropriately around them. It's not his fault of course, just how his mind works and same with my being wary, it's how my mind works.
Today was so much fun it wasn't even funny...wait that's maybe a bit of an oxymoron but whatever. Anyway to begin with, unfortunately my whole interview with Miss World Canada contestant Andrea Sarevec didn't happen because she never showed up...how unprofessional, especially when the competition is also for charity and she was suppose to be here promoting said charity. Anyway, I did however get to interview people from the Western Spur club which basically was a combo of philanthropy, sports, etc.
Once that was done I got some time back at home to study for my exam and then lost a $1.80 from the library because their damn printers were out of change! And what's more I lost $5.00 later in the day for what I'll explain in the next paragraph.
Around 5PM it was time for the (loosely affiliated) King's Players Scavenger Hunt. This consisted of things we had to do from proposing to someone in public, to doing the Macarena, to telling truths about ourselves, to rolling down UC Hill. Plain and simply, it was a blast. And for the first time in a long time, I won something, my team won the "competition". So I was thrilled. Following this lovely experience, we watched the videos of our journeys, and then the Making of Looking Glass Land (the play we put on in February). It was a great time and though we didn't finish till about 2:30, it was just a thrill. So I have to say I can't wait for the production next year!
Hope everyone had a great day! And no autism today, because I really just want to explain how much fun and not say what brought the day down possibly because nothing did. It was just an amazing time!
So I'm going to make this quick since I've been slowly falling asleep during the day. It was a relatively easy day, since I had no classes or anything like that. I headed up to Main however as I had to pick up a DVD of my Purple Shorts production and then do my self-evaluation of my final solo which wasn't SO bad. I then headed back to King's and got back home.
I didn't really do TOO much aside from study for my classes, finish my Ethics Proposal and that was basically it. Oh and I get to interview a girl who is in the top 10 of Miss World Canada tomorrow around noon which I think is great. It's my first interview with TV Western and I'm quite happy since TV Western is shutting down so I get one of the last interviews!
Autism-wise, I stayed up way too late. I just can't really think of anything else as my brains practically dead :P.
Yes I forgot yesterday, I'm sorry everyone. This is how I get when I get distracted by video games, they become my whole life because I use it both as a comfort tool and a distraction from life.
Yesterday I woke at 12PM and got picked up by my parents. When I got home around 1:30PM I started doing some laundry and then around 2PM I fell off to sleep. I hadn't got a good night's rest once again, because thanks to the autism, my mind was too stimulated by the television, and the computer that it couldn't settle down enough to let me sleep. So I slept till 4:30PM and then got up and took a shower again since I felt meh from the mid-day snooze. I then just watched some television, studied a bit, and played Assassin's Creed.
Today however was a different day. I woke up at 1PM and realized I was no longer getting texts like I should, so I called my friend and apparently my friends have gotten my texts either four hours after or only half the message.
And now I'm here. I'll update this tonight if I remember to, but I'm about to head to my high school for a visit so I should be going.
So after the visit to my high school I went grocery shopping and also bought the new Harry Potter movie. It had a preview of the final films for Deathly Hallows and the preview looked awesome! It also gave an idea of what to expect from the new Harry Potter theme park opening at Universal Orlando which I CANNOT wait to see. I then headed over to the variety store and picked up Julie & Julia but my autism kind of sparked up as I was talking to Jeff, the owner's son who was working. Basically I kind of droned on and on about how I was slightly up in the air with school.
After this I came home, helped make dinner (Chicken, Mashed Potatoes, and Crescent Rolls) and watched Julie & Julia.
At 9PM I watched the Glee finale which was simply put, AMAZING! Every bit of it was fantastic, and the way they ended it, was just perfect! I cannot wait for the rest of the season, but unfortunately I have to wait till April 13 >_< for it to continue. But at least I'll have something to watch when my exams and break happen! And I have Housewives and Brothers & Sisters to keep me busy until then!
I'm a 22 year old student at King's College at the University of Western Ontario. I've been a member of students councils for the past 8 years of my life, including Communications Coordinator and Website Commissioner. I'm in Psychology at Western, and have a big passion for acting. I'd love to get into movies if I could, but for now, I'm just living life and loving my friends and the productions I'm in at school :).
