my ipod broke today.. my life is ruined.
by Nic Olson
well, i played soccer today. but, it wasn’t fun. i played the worst i’ve played in a while..
that’s enough of that.
these days, my purpose of each hour, is to get through it, and hopefully not die. school has been alright, i enjoy it quite a bit, but i am lazier than a guy from holland just after he ate 4 cupcakes. and i’m telling you, that is lazy..
i am down to my last 10 dollar bill this week. i broke my final twenty, month old birthday money, to buy an iceberg. an iceberg is a large burger, about the size of your face. and it was fantastic.. now i have that 10 dollar bill to last me until june. i bet it won’t last until next weekend.
with that in mind, i have been thinking quite long and hard about dropping out of school this upcoming semester, and if i do that, getting a job. i need money, i know jobs blow and school is way better, but it seems the most logical right now.. i also have been putting some thought into travel. ever since jeremy, and also wilf and laura went to india, i have been very interested. i would love to learn, live and hangout there, in a totally new place. it sounds weird, but i have been thinking about it quite a bit. it might be that random wishes of a stupid teenager, but i think it would be good for me.. i dont know. i guess, the only way that would work, is if the mcmillans wanted me anywhere near them. because surprisingly, i don’t know anyone else in india.
or maybe i’ll go nanny in franny. france. the official term is ‘au pair’.. i think. something french anyways. that one would be up to conrad and daphne, and if they wanted me anywhere near them, because again, i know no one else in france.
anyways, those are my ideas about the future. my last 10 dollar bill says i will just stay in school for the winter semester, and live off of my parents. they are good that way.. and in many other ways, of course. anyone want to take that bet?
Traveling is good Nic – but I don’t think 10$ would get you to India or France. I do know the McMillans would take you – if Andrew heard you were coming, his grandparents wouldn’t have a choice. For 20 bucks you can come to YK and be my “Au Pooiorir”…
You make me laugh Nick. And think.John
the only thing worse than having your ipod break, is having all 6000 songs that you have on it mysteriously disappear…yeah, true story.tough to give you advice on this one buddy, as i’ve been rockin the university thing for 4 years now (and counting)…but i do know that travelling you would probably learn a lot more than in school…as sad as that is to say. (and i’m not taking a stab at your studying abilities here, so don’t be offended)..i just think that being away from home has a way of teaching you things about yourself and opening your eyes to what’s really out there in the world.but i agree with tim, you’re not gonna get too far on $10.
nic…you could start your traveling adventures by coming to calgary…i’d even give you another $10 to get here:) time for a msn chat soon don’t you think – it’s been a while.
alright guys, if $10 won’t get me anywhere, this is that part where you start throwing around donations.start at $2000?
well it isnt money, and really it’s not even from me but dont forget to come for free food at rick and carolyn’s tonight. that’s almost like money. but it wont take you overseas. i’ve been thinking that you should start your own tv show and you can be cooler than seth and tougher than ryan. yep, maybe you’re an actor.
