The other day, my friend Brittany and I took advantage of the warm sunny day and went into Calgary to Bowness Park. It's right across the street from my Dad's house so I know the area really well. I took her around the park and showed her some awesome spots for pictures. It was quite the adventure. When I took her across the river to the train tracks for some pictures with graffiti, we saw a dead cat. We almost stepped on it. It was pretty sad. Afterwards we went to a little diner called 'Angels' right near my Dad's house for some burgers and fries. She loved it's cute retro-ness and the burgers were delicious. All in all it was an excellent day and quite the adventure.
Friday night I went out with some friends to see Eddie Izzard at the Jubilee. If you haven't heard of this guy, seriously look him up. He is a hilarious british transvestite and it was so good watching him. So funny. At some times I was crying in my chair from laughing so hard. (Watch this one 'Cake or Death')I also met up with some of my friends from school there, who I really miss! I laughed when i saw all of the merchandise they had bought. AKA Everything that was sold! It was quite the bag full of goodies. I, myself only bought a T-shirt. Afterwards, the girls dragged me to a Sheesha bar downtown. Now, I am not the rebel type. I don't smoke, Do pot, or anything else of the hoolagan-ish type things, so going to a Sheesha bar was quite the new experience. I wasn't very good at it either, but I had fun. We had a White Grape/ Watermelon flavour that was actually really good. I wouldn't do it again much in the future, just cause I'm not like that, but I can't say that I didn't have fun. I was laughing up a storm that we were actually sitting in a restaurant smoking from a bong. My friend Lexi could make the smoke spill out in vast pools from her mouth, but I could only get a little puff.
Yesterday, My friend Amanda and I took a trip into Kensington and walked around visiting the shops for the day. It was a lot of fun and money was spent! especially on her half! She got offered a job in American Apparel, for having the right 'look' (she's tall, skinny, cute and model-ish, with very cute style I might add!) We also went into a record store, that we spent probably close to an hour in I'm thinking. We both love records and music. I just came out with a 'The Flaming Lips' CD, but she came out with a few records for friends and herself. Then we had some delicious Cinnamon Swirl Tea from a cute little teahouse. It was so good. I am developing a serious addiction to tea. It was gorgeous outside, and I had the perfect companion for shopping down kensington. We will have to go back and spend the entire day there.
Last night, after work A few of my close friends and I went out to Dick's for a drink, and then into town to see the movie 'Kick Ass' It is such a funny movie. Full of "What the F***!?" moments. Definitely a good one for the of age group though.
All in All, An excellent past week!
