These songs of freedom

Nazri Nipah Camp, Pangkor Island..Off the west coast of Malaysia..read my next post and you'll learn more















Don't know the guys in this photo but this is the place on Pangkor, in Malaysia I was talking about







































This is the A frame I stayed in, a matress was all there was inside, but you got used to it and for only 4 bucks a night.

And I got no time that I got to get To where I don't need to be

I love this song AND there is something about hearing Jack Johnson on a nice sunny day with a beer in hand and that is what I am doing now. I was going to go BBQ at Al and Jay's and I really was excited to see Johnny and Leonard but I have to clean and pack and do laundry and I am all anxious if I leave it until the last sec. and tomorrow Ry and I are meeting pops in law for lunch so that will take a good few hrs. Cause we have to drive into town..And now that we are sookite hippies we have the commute. Then we are staying at mom in law's tomorrow night so we can be close to the airport for the early flight. I feel so much more relaxed about flying just knowing I have something to take..It gives me a sense of security for some reason.

I am the most excited for the last three nights in California...Its MY thing..We are staying on Pacific beach in a cottage RIGHT ON THE BEACH..Just steps from the sand! AND I am going to surf..Not that I'm any good or anything but I went about 5 or 6 times when I was down under. it was the best. The feeling when you get up on a wave is indescribable.

I know it sounds hippi-ish and a little silly but I really want to meet some cool people have fires on the beach, have someone playing guitar, watch the sunsets and relax with some drinks. I have some great memories from when I went to Pangkor Island, in Malaysia I got to know some of the local people and had some really good times and since then, at times, I crave that life. The island, layed back lifestyle. man oh man I really want to go back there. I want to take Ryan there.

There was this guy I met named Addy and he was raised in the jungle in Malaysia. He told me so many amazing stories that I'll never forget. We played this fun game with marbles and he called me milk bottle. He cried when I left and told me he loved me. I did not love him but I admired him and we became close friends but have lost touch. I spent christmas of 2000 on Pangkor Island. We were at Nazri Nipah camp. I miss it there.

getting drowsy

so we leave on monday and I am holding back being excited because of one reason. The flights. I am terrified of flying. You think that with the amount of flying that I've done I'd be over it by now but NO. Everytime I am about to fly I always say that I am going to get a prescription for something to help my anxiety but I never do. Well this time I actually did. We are flying from Victoria to Vancouver first off..and the plane is super small so that gave me extra reason to go get something. Last time I took 2 gravol and it did absolutely nothing. So my doctor wrote me a prescription for Ativan. We decided I should test it ahead of time so about 20 min ago I took one and to tell ya the truth I feel pretty darn relaxed and I am gonna sleep like a wee baby. Bed sounds rather exciting right now. Hows this for a friday night hey? Wow Im a big winner taking anti-anxiety meds at home on a Friday night and to top it all off I AM WRITING ABOUT IT ON MY BLOG!!! Hmmfff. ahh well. nightie night meatheads
Peace out

this is a photo that my mom and pops took in Tofino.It makes me excited for going surfing in SanDiego next week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Song of the moment

It used to be 'song of the day' but..thats just not gonna happen
so here it is u Pearl Jam people

http://img.buzznet.com/assets/audiox/1/4/5/2/0/14520.mp3














Last Night Mr. Matty Good cancelled his show here in Victoria. I was sad. And a little mad. But for me, this is a first for any Matt Good/Band show being cancelled. So I guess I'll allow it this one time. But on the good note he is re-scheduling AND on another good note, I had to get up at 5:30 this morning for work and maybe next time I'll not have to work at all the next day so then I can not worry about how good of a time I have and on a bad note I am going away for 10 days (I leave monday) and maybe he'll come when I'm away. Hope not. Hmm. that is all. Oh and the traffic drives me bananas.
