So my new favourite song is this one its been stuck in my head since the day that Rae showed it to me... which I can't remember but yes. Awesome song, and awesome video.
It also is my motto for my my FIRST DAY OF FREEDOM!!!!!!!! (Which is why the blog is so late, I didn't want to do anything I didn't have to do... until last minute :P )Yep that's right little ole Miah here finished her first year of University yesterday during her exam. OK back to first person. So yesterday I had my final exam of first year university and well I passed I know that. But by how much is a mystery. But the worst thing that happened during my exam was that I had two pens, two pens of the same brand and the same colour that both decided to die half way through my exam. Not like, one died at the 50% mark and the other one at the 100% mark both virtually simultaneously died at the 50%!!!! WTF? Anyway I raised my hand to ask a T.A. if I could get another pen from my bag, but the girl next to me lent me her's which was really really nice. But it was a weird shade of grey, and if you know me you know that i get annoyed by things that don't match. Its probably why I go to art school, I like things too look the same.
Anyway today like Bruno Mars I spent my day doing nothing, well I did stuff but nothing of productive value. I played the Sims, played Wii Fit, watched T.V., spend a little time on the Internet, and knitted.
So as Rae mentioned last week its currently the lovely holiday of Passover. Which I would totally be lying if I told you it was like the best holiday ever, cause well its my least favourite. Matzoh and my stomach historically don't get along and even though my parents remind me that I can break Passover, that no one is making me. Its just that I feel bad, I dunno its a holiday, one of the more important ones and well I can take a week out of my life to ignore my cravings for cookies, pasta, pizza, cake, pancakes, waffles, and everything else that tastes good, to celebrate and observe something that's important to my culture (which is how I'm starting to see my Judaism more as rather then a religion)
OK I have more to talk about, but I'll save it for my Friday post.
So to answer the question... Lee I'm sorry but I kinda forgot to ask my parents about a picture... and they are both sleeping now... not that they would've said yes, my parents are really... for lack of another phrase scared of the Internet, well putting stuff out on the Internet. (I've told them I don't post images here :P) Anyway their love story as I remember goes like this. My dad knew this lady from either the Liberal campaign or some Jewish organization... OK that i guess doesn't totally matter, my dad knew this lady. Any way this lady also happened to go to the same shule as my mom and her family. And she apparently bumped into my mom and my grandmother at a grocery store and said I know a nice young man for you, would you like to meet him? So like Rae's parents my parents met on a blind date. Apparently the date went fine/well depending on which parent you talk too. A fact I learned recently is that my dad wasn't going to see my mom again, but after talking about her to my uncle, my uncle convinced my dad to see my mom again. And they were engaged 2 months later, and married a year after that.
What I find more interesting are actually that both sets of my grandparents also met on blind dates. So guys, if you know anyone... save it for a couple of years but I think it may be genetic. My paternal grand parents had a mutual friend (but they had seen each other many times waiting for a bus, my grandfather though my grandmother looked stuck up.) And my maternal grandparents went on a double date, though I don't know how it was arraigned. I do know that they originally weren't paired off, but my grandmother was too tall for her original date so she and a girl switched, thus landing with my grandmother. Over answering your question... but that little tid bit of info is too funny to pass up.
Ok. I wanna go watch the news know.
Miah
P.S. OMG yesterday night I watched the season finally of Parenthood and I cried the whole time!!!! I never cry when watching television or movies!!!
