Last night was a revolutionary one for Jesse. We were finishing up his birthday dinner and he mentioned he had gotten a few texts re: his birthday post. I hauled out my laptop and let him read what I wrote. At first, he was touched. He quickly moved on to…”Wait…how much do you write about me… Read More…
Around the Bay Race Recap
Hello friends! I am surfacing from my essays, tests and projects to talk a bit about the race last weekend. My friend Leanne and I went down to Hamilton to the expo the day before the race to pick up our race packs and crash at Emma’s house for the night. To refrain from going… Read More…
Exactly what they tell you not to do.
I am busily packing for Around the Bay. This afternoon, Leanne, my long distance running partner in crime and I are headed to the race expo and to my good friend’s house who is letting us crash at her house so we don’t need to drive back for the race in the wee hours of the… Read More…
Do I have a sign on my forehead?
I have made a triumphant return back to the snow, multiple jobs and neglected essays. And I can tell you, it was hardly a graceful one.

Jar of Hearts
Christmas dredges up a lot of different feelings for me and I have to say I am relieved. For a very long time, I have not felt much regarding Jolene; people ask how I am doing and the answer is fine. I am not lying. I am. I have had this discussion often with my… Read More…
Jolene
In the middle of the night, I heard the muffled sounds of my family getting ready and at 3 am, I heard the door slam with a note of finality. Jolene is leaving us again. She is strong, but anorexia was stronger this time. My parents are boarding another plane to take her back to the… Read More…
Nearing the end
My time in England is drawing to a close. This was my last weekend here and I didn’t even take my camera with me. But let’s just say I got the full Newcastle experience. Complete with cheese chips. I couldn’t find a proper picture, but I am sure you could find one on this website somewhere. Needless… Read More…
