When people stay at Grandma's house, they usually stay in the guest room downstairs. Otherwise known as "The Pink Room". It's very pink. It's very floral. But that is not my point.

I went to my grandparents' house last night for a sleepover. They're awesome. Grandma has gotten more dry and sarcastic as she's gotten older and Grandpa is still as cheeky as ever. Listening to them together is basically the funniest thing in the world. Examples:


At this point I should probably point that my Grandpa Edwards is Australian. 100% Australian, 100% Awesome. Accent and everything. And good ol' G-ma loves mocking his accent occasionally. It's funny.

I miss Ellie running to meet us when we pull up in the driveway, and racing the car as we leave.
I miss the smell out in the country. And being able to breathe in deeply outside without worries of second-hand pot smoke inhalation.
I miss hiking through the bush out to The Rock to watch the sunset.
I miss being blinded by the bright yellow kitchen when I stumble into the kitchen in the morning.
I miss Benton taking the go-cart out and killing the battery EVERY time without fail.
I miss being able to see all the stars at night.
I miss loud supper times.
I miss Dad falling asleep five minutes into the movie.
I miss picking up endless amounts of paper off the floor from Sarah's doodles and lists.
I miss biking over to my grandma's house.
I miss being able to sing as loud as I want, whenever I want.
I miss the infamous Ain't No Mountain High Enough and Shoop Shoop Song duets with Mum.
I miss being able to do laundry any day of the week.
I miss not having to cook meals or pay bills.
I miss talking like babies with Logan.
I miss cutting laps around Melfort.
I miss my built-in bookshelf.
I miss listening to Clay practising piano.
I miss having everyone knowing who I am.

Procrastination Method #583: Buy a fish.

Okay, so I didn't mean to procrastinate by buying a fish, but essentially that's what happened. I'm getting ahead of myself. First of all, today was a meh day. I wrote a final and ran errands. HOWEVER, I did snatch up a new t-shirt and shoes from Supa-store! (That's how I pronounce it. It's hip. Go with it.) I was quite pleased with myself.
 NOW for the fishy part. My lovely friend Ashley came to play, and we decided to go to Walmart to wander around. While in Walmart, she mentioned something about a fish, and this reminded me of how I wanted a fish to keep me company in the summer because everyone will be gone, and I am too lame to actually make real human friends. So I ran to the fish supply aisle and got some supplies. And then we went to the pet store....
Why Kraken you ask? Well, should my fish meet an untimely end, at least it would make me feel a little better when I "released" him... My mother didn't get it. Anyways...

I gave up facebook for finals time, thinking it would help me study better...

 This morning I showered and had a brain wave while shampooing. After I got dressed I threw my hair up and made a face mask.
Chantelle's Edible Face Mask (Yes, you read that right.):
-1/4 cup plain yogurt
-1/4 cup honey
Mix em together. I melted my honey a bit first to make it easier, and then stuck it in the fridge for a few minutes. Then you smear it all over your face and let it sit. It's not super super sticky, which made me happy because I ABHOR sticky. Just make sure you rinse it off really well. Or you could lick it off, but that's weird. But yeah. My face is smooth. :) Suck on that Neutrogena! (Just kidding. Please don't sue me...)

Then I made one of my favourite things for lunch. Greek salad!
 Greek Salad:
-equal amounts of tomatoes, red pepper, and cucumber. Some people put olives in it, but olives = sicknast so I don't. Ha.
-Greek or Italian dressing. Doesn't really matter which. They're both European.
-feta or parmesan cheese to sprinkle on top.
Chop the veggies. Mix the veggies. Coat the veggies with dressing. Sprinkle cheese.... on the veggies. Annnnd.... CUT!
 I also made a smoothie. Because who DOESN'T think of smoothies when you think of Greek salad? Pssh. I basically just threw a bunch of stuff in a blender. I think this one had 2 cups of strawberry yogurt,  1 banana, 4 ice cubes, a splash of vanilla, 1 tablespoon of honey, and some almond slivers I had in my cupboard. It was delicious.
