Listening to Coldplay

Before I get started it's the anniversary of September 11th today and my thoughts and prayers go out to all of those who lost a love one and are still grieving today.

So it has become a regular theme for me to listen to Coldplay at least once in my day. I have my iPod on and I am listening to the new album while I catch up with friends online and kill time before my first class.

Sitting here In pain I might ad, my back which I thought had healed is really hurting again, I had to leave class early yesterday because of it. But aside from that. Sitting here trying to ignore the pain I find my mind wondering to people who I was once really close to in my life. Friends I have made through out the years.

Face book is great because you can keep in contact with these old friends but I wish I could have a friend reunion and have everyone together in one spot for a week and just celebrate. Okay so it's time to do some shout outs. I would begin from as young as Child hood. way back in Simcoe where I was born and spent my younger years. Paul, Angie and Stacey and Phillip. They would have to be there. Moving on to my Ottawa Days, Alissa was my neighbor and best friend. Then To Saskatoon. I had a lot of friends at school but my closest girl friends. Janice, Angela and Stephanie. We were inseparable.
Lethbridge. Oh those days. I lived out my teenage years there so maybe that's why it's so important to me, All I know is the people I met there grew on me and I still think about them today. I remember my first time meeting them. Jessica, Naphtali, Shawn, Jeremy, Jason, Debbi,Leanne, There were more especially when I finished High school and started college. Krista, Jody,Glenda, Miles, Scott, Dave, Bonnie, Jamie, I could go on and on. Moving to Niagara Falls was a huge change and I can't list friends from the city because I never really made any.
The friends I made were from B.C where I went to College and met Kyle. I would love for Sandra, Warren, Christina, Sasha well I can't start because the list will be way too long but everyone from my time there to be together and hang out. We would have so much fun it would be crazy.
I can't forget all of the good friends I have made at my jobs. Going as far back as my first Job at New York Fries when I was 16, Lana And my summer friends I made with Staff at camp Qwanos and on YMI. Good old Book Depot, Debbi and everyone there. Then While I was in B.C at school, Everyone who kept me company while I was far away from home at Chevron. The people who supported me and helped me through that first year of marriage when I had no money. Zack, Maria, Amy Jim, Amanda, Rachel,
Awhh just thinking about everyone makes me sad.
Then the big move back to Ontario. Fruits and Passions was a joy only because of my girls, Joanna, Maria, Melanie, Cathy and Bonnie.
Here I am in the middle of a new chapter in my life and right now I am surrounded by good friends who I know in time will all go there separate ways but all I can do is live for today. shout outs to Daria, Timea, Renee, Kelly, Lisa, Austa, Patricia, Angela, Rachel. What can I say. I love you girls! I know there are more that I didn't mention but pretty much everyone in my first year is pretty precious to me and I hope one day in the future when we have all gone off in different directions we remember each other and stay connected. I was thinking we could start an Advertising Company together. You never know what opportunities may arise.

This album is coming to a close so I think It's time this trip down memory lane comes to a close. I can only day dream for so long even though if I had it my way I would dream all day long. I love to have my head in the clouds and let it stay there until life pulls it out.
I am looking forward to today. Since beginning the new semester, year 2 , All of us girls are in different classes so we are going to make Thursday's our day to get together and catch up, maybe go for dinner or a movie. It will be good to make this a regular thing. I have some friends in my classes still and we do lunch, go to the gym and hang out together which is awesome but a night where we can all get together will be great.

Well I just put Cheryl Crow on my iPod so It's time to go about my day. I still have an hour before I need to make my way to class. Enough time to stretch my back out, return a book at the bookstore and see who's around school I can chit chat with. Until tomorrow.

The Story of a Prince and a Girl who Dreamed of finding Her Prince.

Once upon a time there was a young woman named Ruby; she lived in a far way kingdom where only the stars in the sky could light the way. The kingdom was tall and made of stone. Inside, it had all of the finest linens and tapestries with winding stair cases, golden mirrors and exotic flowers that stretched the kingdom’s stone walls. The kingdom was surrounded by a large creek bed and had a large wooden draw bridge outside the tall black iron front gates. Beyond the kingdom were many forests, pastures, rivers and hills.

The young woman lived in the kingdom with only her two servants Nigel and Jasmine. They had been with Ruby ever since her mother gave birth to her and have cared for her and loved her since the great royal war that took her family tragically away from her. Years had past since then and Ruby was a young woman now. Since the great royal war she had not seen another person beside her servants. The lands had been deserted as other kingdoms were destroyed and abandoned. No one knew this kingdom existed. It stood in a far off place that only one deserted over grown pathway in the forest would lead to.

Ruby spent her childhood growing up playing with all the animals in the forest, she had names for all of them and would spend her days dancing in the pastures and walking along the creek bed throwing stones into the water. She was content those days as she lived free and enjoyed every tree, every stone, and every pathway near the kingdom. She loved her home but she missed her family and many times she felt alone.

As Ruby grew older she began to stop playing in the pastures and instead she spent her days walking along the creek bed dreaming of finding love and not being alone anymore. Every night outside her balcony she would spend time looking out into the stars and making wishes that one day soon a wonderful man would find the unmarked path in the forest that would lead him to her kingdom.

Nigel and Jasmine were very old now; Ruby took time to care for them and tended to their needs. She would gather food from the garden and make them food to eat and get them blankets to make sure they were comfortable when it was cold. She was not sure how much longer they would live but one thing she knew was how much she admired they’re love for one another and she hold that in her heart for as long as she lived.

It was a warm fall evening; the leaves from the trees were lightly falling as the sun began to set. Ruby was standing on her balcony in her long white silk night gown. As the dark sky began to shine, a light breeze bustled against her gown and her long brown hair blew lightly in the wind. She stood with her hands on the balcony ledge and wished to the stars like she had so many nights before singing” Star light Star bright bring my prince home to me tonight” She stared up into the dark blue sky and began to talk more to the shinning stars.

Just as she was looking up into the sky, talking to the stars a man was following the pathway from the forest that leads to Ruby’s kingdom. He was beginning to approach the edge of the pathway he had began journeying on earlier that day and was about to step on to a beautiful white shiny stoned pebble walk way that would lead up to a draw bridge and to Ruby’s kingdom.

The young man had been travelling for months only eating what he could find along the pathway. Henry was a prince from the golden city of Persia. He was on an expedition when he was captured by rivals and taken to a far away land where he was imprisoned in a place he did not know. Months ago after many nights planning Henry escaped while the guards were sleeping. He thought he would be able to journey home by recognizing land marks but once he had fled the guards he realized that he was further from home then he ever imagined and much to his dismay he did not recognize any of his surroundings. He had been following the sun in hopes of finding his way home. Each day he walked further hoping that one day the pathway would lead him to his family.

Earlier that day Henry had been walking though the forest with large green bushes and fruitful trees around him when he saw a small unmarked pathway that was ragged and old. There were no fruit trees, only old tall trees and an old pebble pathway that seemed run down and abandoned.

He was going to continue to walk on the pathway he had been but something caught his eye as he walked past this abandoned trail. Henry saw a small red ruby attached to a ring lying in between some wet leaves. The sun was shining on it and it glistened and shinned at him. He bent down and lifted the leaves around it away and dusted the ring off and looked at. The ring was prestigious and fit for a princess. He thought about continuing on the main pathway road through the forest but he was drawn down this unmarked pathway. He wondered if this ruby red ring belonged to someone. He put the ring in his pocket and began to walk along the jagged unmarked pathway. He noticed that there were no markings along this pathway so it appeared that no one had walked this pathway for many years.

To Be Continued…
