Mwahaha...I love Carol of the Bells...I would sing and whistle it at Burger King for hours at a time...hours at a time...

I assign good times at an otherwise crummy job to the Shire. Some of the sweetest memories can be gleaned from those times.

Long holiday weekends spent with friends.

Almonds and cashews.

Marathon games of monopoly.

Summer weather in November

Late-night outdoor conversations.

Watching silly movies well after bedtime.

Pumpkin cheesecake and bacon-and-cheese stuffed mushrooms.

Together with your best friend, being able to install and get a printer working, despite practically being technologically Neanderthal.

Going to a restourant and messing around harmlessly.

The online alarm clock that helped me get up and do my "homework" this morning.

I realised at 3am that I had no other alarm than the one in my phone which I had left at my grandmothers place, knowing that I can easily sleep 10 hours I was quite desperat. . .but then I found the online alarm clock which helped me to get up after only 7 hours.

Handing in one essay and already being 500 words through the other! It won't last, but it's heartening to know I can do it when I really try.

Oh, and chocolate chip cookies.

I assign CFL football, we just won the Grey cup and this city was just crazy,in a good way. Everyone gets into the spirit, from little kids to the really old. My boss at work even painted her face for 3 days straight to show her spirit. She now has the stained S's embedded on her cheeks. I like that it is something everyone can share together. Everyone parties hard and no one fights.
