I'll Miss It!

Well, I'm back. I arrived home last night around 10:45 pm. Only 15 minutes delayed. Not too bad. It was a really good flight. Barely anyone on it, I was able to stretch out, put my seat back, and just relax. The crew was really entertaining, and I loved it! Another added bonus was it was a new plane, and WestJet has leather seats. LOVE IT.
Needless to say, going home sucked. It always sucked, but this time it was different. I've realized how much I love it in Mississagua, and I talked about going there for my Graduate Studies (whatever they may be) or for a job when I'm done school. Now I'm seriously considering it.
Wednesday
I arrived, met Tawny and Taylor, and then after taking my things to the house, Tawny and me headed back out to go into the city. We had lunch at a cool resturant in Eaton Centre where we had really good pasta. Then we headed to H&M, the store I was most excited for. I didn't find a whole lot, but I managed to score two cute tops, and a pink skirt like my black and white linen ones (something I debated buying when in the UK). Then we ventured into Old Navy, where I didn't find anything, and Sephora, my little bit of heaven. I ended up buying my beloved Jessica Simpson lipgloss (yes, I spent ANOTHER $30 on it, I'm an idiot). Then we headed home and had supper, played some DDR and crashed.
Thursday
Saw us up early where Tawny, Taylor, their friends Geo and Rick, and me went to Wonderland. Man, what a blast. I had SO MUCH FUN. I would have loved to go on the Xtreme Skyflyer, and would have went myself if it wouldn't have cost me $45. Had we hung around longer, I think eventually my urge to go on it would have won out, and I would have gone (I ended up having $40 left over Sunday, so I could have afforded it, that's the sad thing). I started to feel sick -- probably due to not wearing my glasses and having a splitting headache. So we left and went to Moxie's for dinner. After that it was back to the house for the five of us where we played Karaoke until 230 am.
Friday
We woke up around 10 and got ready to go into Toronto. We were dropping off stuff for Tawny and Taylor for TIFF and then having lunch at Milestones (my request so that I could have a Belini with a plastic animal :)). Around 230 I was suppose to meet up with Sandra, but that never happened for reasons I won't get into. So the three of us headed back into Mississauga and Tawny and me headed out to grocery shop. We came back, went for a run (and I was very impressed with how long I lasted), made dinner, and then began preparing for the party. We made a whole bunch of food, including 4 batches of Tawny's wicked cookies. At 230 we threw in the towel and went to bed, hoping we'd sleep in on Saturday morning.
Saturday/Sunday
Sleep in we did! Tawny woke up at 11, I followed at about 1230. We got up and went to pick up some last minute groceries, and some KFC for lunch. After that we began the long adventure to get ready. Nail painting, hair drying, and lots of make up and trying on clothes later, we were ready (I took longer than Tawny lol). I think the party was a success, I mean, Tawny dropping ice cream cake, the house nearly burning down, and poker until 8 am. What's not to love about that? I got drunker than I planned (I didn't want to get drunk at all!) and I'm sure I was annoying beyond belief, something I terribly regret. Oh well. I found my endless "Cookies!" everytime the egg timer went off amusing, as well as my apparent pass out at the top of the stairs. I still don't remember what I went up there for. Right, so poker ended at 8am Sunday morning and those of us still awake crashed for about 5 hours. I got up and began cleaning up -- which took a very long time, and while Tawny made Butter Chicken, Geo and me went to get Naan (I wanted to go in his car). And I love his car! I want one sooo much now, it's crazy! While dinner was finishing I packed up my stuff. After dinner, Tawn and me looked at some pictures from the night before (halarious I might add). Then we went to the airport, said our goodbyes, and the rest is all she wrote.

All in all it was a very good trip, one I was sad to return from. Tawny and Taylor know some of the nicest people I've ever met. And I always feel so at home there. It's a wonderful feeling. I can't wait to go back (assuming I'm welcome!!).
Happy (early) 30th Tawn!!
