lmao OH...wow I'm dumb.
The night's as hot as hell. It's a lousy room in a lousy part of a lousy town - I'm staring at a goddess. She's telling me she
wants me. I'm not going to waste one more minute wondering how I've gotten this lucky. She smells like angels ought to smell, the perfect
woman... the Goddess. Goldie. She says her name is Goldie.

Ahh..so much to reply to hahaha..see what happens when I stop coming online as often as before? I get left behind.
quotation:There's nothing wrong with your accent. Love who you are.
I do..it's just my accent, that will come up out of nowhere..and there's certain words I just cannot pronounce..and it sucks. haha.
Then again, I've only been in Canada for what...3 yrs?! haha
quotation: you have a canadian accent. french accent my ass.
No no, this is a TRUE story hahaha..I went to the Ex and I wanted to buy a snow cone, so when I approached the girl she's like
"okay" and she goes to make it..and comes back with some other guy who just starts speaking in french to me, and they saw my puzzled look
so the girl is like "arent you french?" so i said "no..spanish" so she said I sounded french...and yah..
Also my French teacher has said I "sound" french....
Maybe it's all a blatant lie.
quotation:you guys say "about" in funny ways.
We do NOT say "aboot", so shush
quotation:you have to delete some PMs from your outbox too.
*feels special* Have I been the only person who knew this all along? haha..Maybe I just use the PM system too much...
quotation:maybe i should have a counter on the pm page showing how you're wasting all your space
Here's an even better idea..
UNLIMITED space for PMs...
I'm constantly deleting my whole outbox, but I still have tons of PMs on my inbox that I do not want to delete for personal purposes hahahaha..
you won't let me down...

How do you communicate those emotions that are so intense that no physical expression or series of words can even scratch the surface?

I have a lot of American friends and I always get made fun of for saying out and about...they say that we pronounce it oot and aboot. I don't
hear it but I guess they do. Another one I get made fun of for saying it Mazda.
If you have something to say, raise your hand...and put it over your mouth.

I really have never notice the whole about phenomenon... Not where I am from anyway. It always mistified me. The only time I ever hear it is when
people make fun of the way canadians say about.

well rob, you have never witnessed it, cause you are currently in Bdot right now (where ever that is). all I have to say about the canadian/amarican
accent thing is that we pronounce our "ou"s differently and that is about it. my friends think you guys say aboot, and it pisses me off,
cause that's not it. but i have realized that the difference is so minimal that one cant imitate the other without hours of practice. i wish i
had a british accent though. they are wicked! i have a fake one that all my friends think is cool, but im sure it would sound lame compared to a real
one...

Now that Ian has gone skiing in like Washington or w/e, the boards have no bicycle stuff. When the damn spring comes, I'm gonna go biking every
damn day w/ warm weather. Too bad Ian lives so far, I need a riding buddy.
Ian: Maybe we can ride trails at the same time and pretend that were riding together.
That was golden.
thanks for that... that made me very happy. actually i couldnt stop smiling.
no, i was in Utah. at the Canons near Park City. the conditions were perfect, cause there was no one there and it had snowed loads the week before,
but when i got there the sun came out, and it was like really warm. i acctually got pretty good at skiing, seeing as i cant snowbaord for shit. PIS,
this summer, we gotta meet up somewhere for biking. im serious.

What is with this "about" shit, anyway. I've NEVER said or heard anyone say ABOOT in any part of the country. It's like when
people think that all Australian's say "Let's put another shrimp on the Bar-b" or "A dingo ate my
baby"...it's just one of those retarded things that gets clung on to. Like all Brit's having bad teath and drink tea...
