Kara-okay!

Vancouver's a funny city for relationships. I'm not even talking about relationship relationships (though those are messed up here too) but even friendships are complicated. I've noticed this over the last year and change that I've lived here - you don't just become friends with people. There's a waiting period or something. You meet someone and you don't seem to hang out until four months later... or you you hang out all the time for a bit then you seem to just take a break and don't talk for weeks. What's up with that? Is it to do with the transient nature of Vancouver as a whole? Is it just the people that I keep meeting, that I keep hanging out with? Or is this the norm and I'm the one out of the ordinary?

I haven't quite figured it out and probably won't. I had a friend who's been here for awhile tell me that I was young and in time I would become jaded to the whole process and 'wouldn't try so hard' and then it wouldn't matter but it does matter. It kind of bugs me actually.

It's a stupid game and I don't wanna play it! MEH! haha

Alright, enough of the pain, bring on the fun! ha

Went out to Two Parrots for karaoke (thanks to Moses inviting me... and I love him dearly for it because it was exactly what I needed.) Tuesday and had an awesome time. I forgot how great karaoke is. I rarely get up to sing and tonight was the exact reason why... there was this gaggle of theatre kids just lovin' the mic - they were the first 15 songs or so before anyone from our table got up. And they were good but Moses was right... they have this distinct drilling tone that has no depth. But they were good. Moses and co. were amazing as usual. Oh, and that guy who sings "I Believe in a Thing Called Love" so goddamn beautifully and tried to kiss me outside the Two Parrots once was there too. He did the Darkness, as per usual, and had some slutty dancer girl come up and try to dance with him but he wasn't having any of it. Singers and their focus, huh? Go figure. I do wish I'd stuck around long enough to convince Moses to sing "Creep" by Radiohead because I do love it...

Anyway, off to bed. I'm going to attempt to move a couch tomorrow am super early... that'll be interesting given there's a dude sleeping in the room we're supposed to bring it into and I have a sinking feeling that it's just too big to go in... ah well. There will be many moments of "That's what she said" I'm sure. Maybe a couple references to Friends too. haha

Alright,
