party at my house turned disaster

-

The party hasn't happened yet and its already falling apart.

I planned a party at my house and invited everybody I know. Perhaps it was a ploy to get a gay taken man I am obsessed with there. Perhaps, indeed. But now everyone I know is either sick (due to the massive germ outbreak at Carleton University), or is studying for midterms (BOOORING). And the gay man's coworker who I am friends with and was supposed to be my in to get him at the function, but now she cancelled, so the gay man I wanted to befriend will not be there?

I am well aware that throwing a whole party is kind of giving Jay Gatsby throwing a party in hopes that Daisy shows up. Also, did not realize that Tobey Maguire was in that movie. This man needs to show up so I can check "him showing up at the social event" from my school friend bingo card. 

Trying to explain this situation to my parents was a pain. They understand the dynamics of the bingo card, but every time I mention this guy, my mom is like: "is he cute?" I reply EVERY TIME with: "yes, but he has a boyfriend." Dealing with parents is hard some times

So on Friday (day of the party), Clara M (there are two Claras) and I will go to the gay man's place of work and I will invite him myself. Do you think he is more likely to say yes if I tell him to bring his boyfriend? Am I afraid? Yes. Will I do it anyways? Who knows. Please note that this is not that weird, I have talked to this man at least 5 times and I have known him since January technically. I will update you in another blog post.

Purifying my blog

-
 Hi everyone. I am not dead (is this how I start blog posts now?, probably). My blog has seen me through some of the most troubling times of 2024-2025 (examples: midterm day 2024, when I thought I was being followed by the ghost of my high school enemy, realizing I work for a mega-corporation and famously, thinking the guy I was into was my cousin). But what have I accomplished? When have I said that life is good?  It is time to play catch up since February. First order of business – people who are so cute I would pick them up and shake them: Jenny (biophysics professor), Annie (boss), Blondshell (popstar), Clementina (neighbour). Speaking of, I was at the Blondshell concert last week and may I say that I was blown away. I kept telling her – "Sabrina! It's me, Veronica!!! You got me through rock bottom in 2023, remember!?" Let's just say she didn't remember me – she was one playing salad away from me collapsing to the floor in the venue and letting out a guttural,...

travel blog + trip review (feb 2026)

 I was on a trip for my fateful reading week, and it has been so lovely. As per the requests of many, I was to create a travel vlog, like I had for my Frankfurt trip (send me a message for the link!), but tbh it didn't turn out in the way I would have liked (as in I have taken very few videos). So I will take an alternate route and write about it (novel idea). I will also figure out how to add photos. Currently sitting in the Brussels airport – note to future self, bring a plastic see-through bag next time you fly through here – by the smoking area because it's the only place with tables, and I like having a table to use as a workspace.  This review will go as follows: I will review the five countries I visited + I will review the museums and touristy things I went to + I will review the food I ate (that wasn't homemade). Just as an explanation to the people, I was sick for a few days in there so I did not eat too much.  review: the Netherlands I was in the Netherlands fr...

cop or drop 2026: life is NOT embarrassing

-
Image
 Something I thought to invent while reminiscing on my Trays (Trent + days) were the Trentds (Trent + trends) I followed with my Triends (Trent + friends). One that has snuck its way into modern (ie. today's) lingo is "life is embarrassing."  The cop [ja] or drop [nee] committee 2026 (aka "yay or nay," "boom or doom," "in or out") has voted to drop/ nee/ doom/ out "life is embarrassing" because, well, let's embrace the cringe this year – things are only embarrassing if you let them be, this is indeed true, I have recently realized. Now I will share a story of how I recently overcame something that one would absolutely consider embarrassing #resilient #strong. [some of you wonder how I get myself into these situations, I will let you invent your own theories].  Yesterday I was at a going away party for my oldest friend (as in friend I have known the longest). She is going to China for 2+ years. My family doctor is her aunt.  We w...
