Jess's, OSLC, and hypnosis

Hey everyone, and welcome back to another edition of "Weasels, unfunny clownfish, and caulking guns" My name is Kyle, and I will be your host for the evening.

If you hop into the time machine to your left there , press " 10-26-2007-8-00" , I will take you back to Friday night, where our story for this evening begins.

So, after school friday, I took a greyhound down to Toronto to visit Jess for the weekend. I was looking very forward to going and seeing her, and it proved to be very much so worth it. I went down friday night, arrived there at about 8:00, which kinda sucked, but oh well, such is life. Jess zapped us up some Chili n' chips, and that was really really tasty. We watched a movie I brought, "Bloody Mary", but it pretty much sucked. It was blatantly a low-budget film, and it lacked whatever content strikes general interest these days. It kinda reminded me of the movie I made back in grade 9, except I didnt die in this movie. Sorry.

So Saturday morn' , we wake up, and we cant really decide what to do for breakfast. So, we beat around the bush for a bit, and finally decided that we would go to Arby's , concidering that it was probably around 11 by this point. We went, had some Bacon Cheddar melts and curly fries, and A&W root bear (yum) and then we decided we would walk around the mall for a bit. We went to the apple store, which was overcrowded, we went to some stores and Jess looked at $300 boots, and then we went to the Bay to try and find my Grandma, if she was working there. Well, she wasn't, so we went to "christmas street" which is the Bay's nickname for there Christmas displays. They were beautiful, and it was nice to look at. Plus, they had huge nutcrackers, which have always fascinated me for whatever reason. Maybe I was dropped on my head as a baby.

Anywho, we went back to Jess's after that, and hung around her room for a bit. we watched weird videos online, and just spent some quality time together. I always love doing that.

Jess had some 3 hour opera thing that she had to go to that night, so my idea of cooking us a nice reomantic dinner was scrapped. We decided we should go out and try to find somthing to eat. I had seen a place, its a chinese or some asian place, where you cook your own food on the grill in front of you. We walked around Yonge for a bit, and finally found it. We went in, and were obviously a minority. We ordered the "all you can eat bbq" meal, which sounded good enough. They brought us:

Beef
Pork
More Pork ( different cuts)
Squid
Salmon
Weird fish
Chicken
and a various assortment of noodles, rice, soups, and the like.

It was delicious. Luckily, I knew what most of the stuff looked like cooked, so I made sure that neither of us got sick from the food. The only thing I didnt know how to cook is the squid, but we figured er' out. It was all really good, and I would definitely go back again. They offer you the option to get shrimp + lamb as well, and we will definitely do that :) No ox tongue though, they offer you that :P

So, I walked Jess to her theater thing so she could watch her opera, and I went to blahblah's ( it was actually dominion, but blahblah's is way cooler) and I picked Jess up some groceries,things like bread, fruit cups, a 24 case of water, enough crustal light to flavour the sea, and some breakfast things for the next morning. ( i.e. Bacon, Lettuce , Tomatoes, but that will come later in the story) things for the next morning, and I surprised her with a bouquet of a dozen roses for when she got home. When i tried to leave the store, the carts wheels locked up. Guess that aint' coming home with me. So, I got to carry all the groceries. Which would have been fine, expect the water was heavy as FiretrUCK, and the bread and flowers were delicate, so i couldn't just juggle them home. I finally managed to her home, put ehr groceries away, cut the flowers, vase'd them, and awaited Jess's thing to be done. Well, that definitely is easier said then done, as within half an hour of being back, a girl comes to the door and asks if I can go help set up for the halloween party that night. So, not being a jerk, I went. I hung more streamers and cob webs then you'd know what to do with, and then headed back to the dorm. I hung there for a bit, and then went to pick up jess. We got back, got into our costumes, and headed off to the party at the pub down the street. We partied for a bit, then went back to Jess's, as her feet were sore. We hung there, took some pictures, spent time with eachother, and then hit the hay for the evening. In the morning, Jess's Alarm went off for 9, I went downstairs, fried up the bacon, cut up tomatoes, and lettuce, and made BLT's for ehr and I. The smell of real bacon was awesome, and it certainly drove her house mates craaazy. I sadly had to leave her place at this point, and up to the greyhound terminal I went. The princess got some sleep once I left, and I had a nice long bus ride home ( it stopped at the Guelph terminal for 45 minutes)

And so heres the ending to the story of Jess and Kyle's weekend, or shall I say, here begins the story of Kyle, at OSLC.

Sunday, I had to depart for a leadership conference in London at 2:45. Suuucked big time. I so did not want to leave Jess's for this. We bussed there, checked in, and had a dance that night. It pretty much sucked, so i just went to my room and watched TV. Monday, we had workshops all day, which kinda sucked, and then a dance that night too. Went for like 20 minutes and then went and hung out with other people that appreciated how crappy the dance was. We ended up having a huge Toga party, and like 100 of us paraded around the hotel screaming songs about togas and whatnot. The manager finally shut that down, and we all went and retired for the evening.

Next morning, we had more workshops, and the one I chose to go to just happened to be a hypnotist. I was one of the few "lucky" ones who got to be hypnotized, and I assure you that this scared the shit out of me that it worked. What i did was went back for the seccond seminar to see what all happened to me.

So, he starts off with everyone in the audience, he does some weird thing and you put your index fingers an inch apart and then they get "magnetized" together. Well, this worked on me, so he called me and about 10 others to the front. We went, and he started talking to us. He eventually got us to go into a trance, if you will, and it was right before this where I lost and and all recolection about what happened. Seeing from the seccond show, what happened now was he said " you are sitting on a beach, which was cool because everyone actually sweat, and was basking in the sun, and then all of a sudden, he told us it was freezing rain, and everyone was freezing and grabbing other people up there for warmth.

He then said " I am about to throw you the keys to your favourite sportscar" and we proceeded to actually pretend to be driving a car. Following that, he said we were in the middle of jurassic park, and that was scary enough in its own right, because even the big, buff guys, were crying like babies. I hope I didnt do that. Then he did a bunch of other crazy stuff which I am too exhausted to talk about right now, but I can assure you, it scares the hell out of me that this worked on me. I am very skeptical about this type of thing, and the fact that it worked and i had no control or memory of any of my actions over the period of an hour, kinda scares me.

Well, i'll continure the hypnosis story at another point, but I am BEAT tonight.

Thanks for the great weekend Jess! I love you!

Much love everyone!

Kyle

Wonderful weekend

Well, just writing this after a pretty awesome weekend :)

Friday was.... commencement. WooFREAKINhoo. boooring. But, what I just realized is that it was at last years commencement that Jess first introduced me to her Parents and Grandparents, and I believe an aunt too. Well, thats a cool tidbit anyway.

So yeah, Saturday was the wedding I had to DJ. What a beautiful reception. It was a great success, and I had a lot of fun doing it. Long night though. Too bad Jess was at Aarons little shindig, otherwise she could have tagged along again :) She came to theyre buck and doe, after all :P

Speaking of Jess, she came by today for the day, which was fantastic. I really missed her, and it was great to see her. I miss ya already babe!

Well, thats that. Take care everyone!

Much love!

Heres just a video/song for Jess and I. Goes with the post below.

( video deleted because it doesnt work on hardly any other computer besides mine, new video above ^^ )

Jess and I

Well, basically this blog is just about how amazing of a girl Jess is, and how lucky I am to have her.

I remember back when we first met, there was always somthing special there, we somehow "clicked" in ways that I never had before with other people.

Then, when we first started dating, I remember that there was this connection, this pull, to eachother, that I had never experienced quite so much in a relationship before. I somehow knew from that day forward that this girl was the one for me.

Over the past year and a bit , now, Jess and I have flourished, not only as individuals, but as a couple, and as eachothers best friends. She has turned into this Amazing woman that I never thought I would find, and she has turned me into this caring, loving guy that I am today. We have been by eachothers sides through thick and thin, and we have hit many speed bumbs along the way, but through it all, we have stuck by eachothers sides 100% , and never truly given up. Whilst she is virtually perfect in my eyes, I know I have made my share of mistakes, and she has forgiven me for all of them with all the love that she has, and supports me in everything I do, just as I support her. I am behind her all the way in whatever she choses to do in life, and I know that she is for me too. The respect that I have gained for this girl, along with the mutual love and trust that we have established is truly remarkable.

If there is only one thing in the world that I can promise you, it is this: I promise to always be there, and I promise that I'll always strive to find a way to continually be the guy of your dreams. Its the least I can do, seeing as you are indeed the woman of mine.

Whatever I did to be so lucky to deserve this girl, this woman, I am glad, because I dont know where I would be today without her in my life. She is like a northern star, always guiding me in the right direction, and I will forever be thankful for the impact you have had on my life.

Well, take care, whoever took the time to read this!

Much Love,

Kyle

An awesome weekend!

Well, everyone, im home, and I just got back from a beautiful weekend with Jess and her family. Friday, I went to school, and there was a bomb threat, so i figured screw it. Jess's Grandparents picked me up around noon that day, we went down to Toronto, and picked up the princess there. We drove and drove, and to make a long story short, drove, and finally got to the friendly city, well, town, well, village, of Dunrobin. Jess's mom, Lisa, had a fantastic meal waiting for us, consisting of prime rib, potatoes, and 4 VERY grateful travelers. Shortly afterwards, we hit the hay, I bunked up with the girly and had a fantastic sleep. In the morning, we woke up and went and ate at the eating place, which was really yummy, I ended up having falaffel and hummus for breakfast, which was a bit unorthadox, but delicious! We hung around the house that day, played some scrabble, got my arse kicked at it, and then we decided maybe it was getting to be bed time. I went up, had a shower, and was in jess's room getting dressed when all of a sudden, I hear this loud noice outside. At first, it was a car accelerating like a retard, like he was going normal speed down this road, which was probally at least 100, and then all of a sudden he floored it. Well, the car squeaked, i heard it hitting gravel, and that was it. Following a loud FUCK, i ran downstairs, only fully clothed about 3/4 of the way down the stairs, and looked out the window. Nothing. There was no crash, nothing. So, Lisa and Shawn get outside, and drive to the end of the driveway, and they are looking around. Nothing. Then Lisa got out of the car, looked around, and shouted across the road " is anybody out there" when all of a sudden, some guy is like " uh, yeah" and crawls out of the ditch across the road. When his buddy got out too, Lisa went over and we got them a blanket and some paper towels to clean up theyre blood. I could smell liquor on the drivers breath, so they probally couldnt feel much of the pain anyway. Heres the funny part. It was a , estimate, 1997 Chevrolet Camaro SS. Good, stong, durable car. 'Cept this was a convertible. They flipped this thing doing god-knows-what-speed, and fell down a , my guess, 10-15 ft drop into the ditch. The fact that the driver got a scrape on the head and the passenger got a scraped knuckle blows my mind! But it was the sight of this beautiful sculpted piece of american muscle , flipped over in its top and scraped and totaled, that turned my stomach. So, slept with Jess again that night, and in the morning, we woke up and had a awesome turkey dinner, and then left. We got home, and Jess's Grandma invited me over to her place with jess to celebrate thanksgiving there, and meet the rest of Jess's family. We slept at Jess's Grandmas Sunday night, and this morning, Monday, we had an AWESOME turkey dinner, and I got to meet a few more relatives of Jess's which was a real honour, I had been looking forward to meeting them all for quite a while. So, we drove Jess home after, and now im home leaving a message with all you fine people! So, thanks Lisa, Shawn, Ruth, and Jim, for being so hospitable once again, and thank you Jessica Marie Wilder for spending this weekend with me and being the fantastic girlfriend that you are. Im the luckiest guy in the world to have you.

Love you all!


Kyle

Woohoo! Woohoo! Oh wait, I already said Woohoo!

Just thought I'd let anyone who cares know that this coming weekend, Thanksgiving weekend, I will be at Jess's parents up in Ottawa, celebrating thanksgiving with them. They invited me to spend it with them, and I really appreciated that :) They are truly a great bunch of people, and I am very grateful of they're hospitality.

Well, glad I could inform anyone.

Oh yeah, and my birthday is on October 12th :)

So yeah :P

Much love,

Kyle
