hobbling around all sleepy-like can be...fun

So headache somewhat dissapated. (I feel a throbbing pain on the right side of my head now...this thing like to migrate lots) I think it's more a combo of eye strain meaning new glasses for me--yay, edmonton's elevation and...lack of food? I dunno. Either way it's not as painful as it was in Edmonton so that's good.

Woke up at 11:30, did the whole walk-in-to-various-walls thing, (More last-minute dodging than actual walking smack into a wall) Finished Mi-5 season 1 and it ends with a scary cliffhanger. BTW, there's an interview on one of the discs with Hugh Laurie and his role as MI-6 head Jooles Siviter...something I shall investigate further and lend MI-5 to Sean tomorrow as it turns out he's seen one episode.

So, seeing Edmonton for the first time in years was interesting. It wasn't exciting, however the debates were. Holy crap. Me and Mike took care of video and photo duties (some of the pics of Kees and Sean make them look very politician-like *nods*). 40-something photos is alot peoples.

DAY 1
We get to Edmonton, no headache. We watched "I ♥ Huckabees" which had me raise an eyebrow or two. It was...interesting. (Save for the display of colourful language from the movie in front of the Jrs who were all I hear in gr 7-ish) Filmed Jason's and Ryland's round which was wtf'd (which we later found out they lost...when they pretty much pwned the other team.....), got back to the hotel, was in the hall going to our room when I ran into a longtime friend Anika! Who was part of the contingent of soccer clubs/players in Edmonton for a tourny (Not Cities). Had a rather interesting convo with Ian, Anika, Erica and Georgeanne.mainly about soccer and how evil the Eastside SC is. (which it seems no matter which division or Tier or age group anyone faces, they're all vicious and evil.)

Oh yeah, party in our room. Lots of discussion. *nods*

DAY 2
Oooh! Blizzard. We were all doubting we'd return. Headache began after breakfast i think...No wait, I had kiddie's chewable tylenol (because I can't swallow pills without my tongue gaining a life of it's own and gagging me.) thought it would subside, didn't. I filmed Erica and Georgeanne's debate (it's shaky. No tripod :( ), watched Jess and Courtney and headache basically got from bad to worse so during lunch I was half-blind and sightly grumpy but I ate lunch, had two cookies, some milk and when Quarters were announced I plopped myself down onto a gym bench and slept until I was awoken by Miranda, Mike and Cong, briefed on what happend and lugged my headachy self to the semis after another kiddie's tylenol.

Then we watched Kees and Sean's debate against a team I watched in bilinguals as they won and we all filled into Courtney and Jess' room to hear the results and some of us migrated to watch Sean and Kees vs Jess and Courtney's final and some watched Kelci's and Caitlin's final in bilinguals.

Head still hurts. It would get 1000x more painful during awards but that's ok. I think. Sure!

Won a bunch of awards, congrats to everyone too. :)

We went for supper at Burger King but everyone migrated to A&W and we all had supper and then we went home while we watched 'Lord of War'. Er---I kinda watched the Blurry Edition (tm) of 'Lord of War'. Hahah...still had the evil headache but my ears began to slowly stop popping as we got near Red Deer/Airdrie-ish. It was a good busride back and an overall good trip.

In other news, I sent my final application to the UofC after much putting it off and suchnot. Now tomorrow I have to go and mail transcripts. Yay.

I think this headache could've been caused by a number of things. Ah well, more kiddie's tylenol.

Dad has given the Montreal -for-spring-break thing a maybe......even though it's going to be a last-minute planning thing more than anything. Hm.

I guess I could always go and visit my brother and his wife in Vancover (actually, I should clarify they live in Langley but they lived in Vancouver for quite a while)...but it totally depends if they're really busy which either of them could be. Hanging out with his wife can be fun too. I love hanging out with her.

Eh. I shall now wait for dad to return, neglect my math (though I have a quiz tomorrow morning) and put a cloth on my head for the headache.
