All Hallows Eve is coming..

Witches, wizards, ghosts, ghouls and goblins get ready, your day is approaching .
I love Halloween just not the commercialized holiday, that is why I prefer calling it All HAllows Eve, the right way to call the holiday.

In the spirit of All Hallows Eve, I had this awesome idea of what to do on the weekend of october 18th with Shawn. For one thing because it is close to All Hallows Eve and also because we are both artistic people... my idea was to carve some pumpkins, so Shawn came over and we went to get two pumpkins, one for each, and we found a design and carved them

Unfortunately all that is left of them are the following pictures since the pumpkins are dead now. I thought they'd last at least until this week or until halloween but I suppose it is food and rots quickly. Shawn carved an alien, I especially the extra touch he added with carving a little flying saucer shining a beam of light. And I carved a dragon face, mine was without a stencil as there wasn't a dragon in the book we got with the pumpkin carving tools, just drew it on paper and tried to figure out what would be positive and negative, wasn't the easiest thing as it was my first time doing this but turned out ok, next time I carve pumpkins I will be better.



We also made ourselves some egg salad sandwiches and had a picnic on the hill at mooneys bay where we saw a weird old guy who made himself a summer snowboardsort of say and went down the hill, he was pretty good though, guess he practiced a lot. Looked liek a huge skateboard except the wheels were bigger.

Took a bunch of pictures playing models. Take a look.

Scientifically Technological Outing - Saturday October 13th, 2007

I visited the Science and Technology museum with Shawn, it had been so long since I went last time. I believe I was in sixth grade when I last visited this museum, we came to Ottawa with the class to see our penpals over in Gatineau and the science and technology museum was part of the things we did.

I loved seeing that with Shawn, some people would say this is a jkid's museum but it isn't, I love that it is an interactive museum, I didn't take any pictures since I found out I forgot to recharge the battery in my camera... d'oh. But Shawn did, photos turned out a bit dark since the lighting wasn't the best, I'll ask shawn to send me the pix and try and fix them in photoshop, work my magick hands on them. hehe

Shawn's mom had invited me to dinner, his family is really nice, we played this game, his sister's idea, where you have a card with a word and you have to find ten things that it makes you think of, pretty cool, not as easy as it sounds perhaps when you are timed in doing it kind of panic and can't think of even simple things. I loved the game it was quite interested.

We watched Saw III, well actually part of it since I fell asleep again, must be extremely tired lately I keep falling asleep.

Shawn gave me a present, dvd box set of "les contes pour tous", though he doesn't have to buy me stuff I already love him. I loved it more than anything as those were movies I watched over and over again growing up. My favourite always was la grenouille et la baleine, we watched that one and as I suspected I cried, these movies always made me cry, but with shawn holding me through it, it felt much better. Got him a little figurine of saw (Billy) I can tell he loved it.

On sunday he came over again, wanted to see poutchie, my parents cute little gizmo-like dog and went for a walk and got some A&W we watched a movie. We saw a bunch of zombies downtown, that was funny everytime we looked outside you saw people dressed as zombies, later on we found out there was an activity downtown called the zombie walk, makes a bit more sense. lol

I think I am getting into the halloween spirit more now just because he loves halloween. Can't wait to make smelly orange faces next weekend.

;)

Dragonlogy

Dragons are fascinating to me and have always been, take a look at what I found online about them.

Dragons

Dragons are warriors for light (lightworkers). We are a collective of souls who service light. We can infuse our souls into bodies that are not dragon (human for example). In this way we can work for light and efficiently bring about changes. We work in teams, and often share our vessels (bodies) with other members of the kin. The earth's conscious is evolving, it has a race of people that need to make the deadline, and there are many of us here working to accomplish that end.

Do you feel like a dragon inside? Have you always been drawn to them? Does this world feel very limiting? Are most of the spirits you channel dragons? It could be you're a dragon too, or are very connected to the dragon collective. How we come into this world varies in so many ways, it boggles these brains.

Channeling them, Dragons usually appear to people as themselves. There are those times when they appear as winged humans, or something else, but for the most part you see them as they will appear as they would be in their own physical environment.

Dragons originated in a nebula far on the edge of the universe. We as a whole have been around serving Grace for a very long time. Most dragons don't have names; we are categorized by our color, which is the ray we came on. Most Dragons incarnated here came awake (on at least some level), or to be awakened this life. We've come in enough times to be familiar with this race. Some have a long history incarnating here, others just enough to get by (but then Grace always takes care).

One must gain the right to incarnate here, and gain the right to bring things here. To understand this race we've incarnated in a number of different "settings", both awake, and asleep spiritually. Understanding a race means to live the lives in the same exact manner they do.

I think it's interesting how many cultures of this race have integrated the dragon into they're lore. The connection to earth has been prevalent for quite some time, before humans were even here. Part of the reflective energetic qualities the moon brought to the earth, made the dragon’s part earth spirit before time existed like it does now. And therefore were included in "the great forest", as dragons. So when humans came, the dragons of course appeared to them. The earth dragon is still the embodiment of these earlier phases of the earth in relation to the dragon mind.

Living in the Dragon nebula (witch has evolved to a high degree of consciousness), is quite different from living on this planet (as it has been). Energy works on many more planes, and it's not uncommon to shape matter at will, hear all the thoughts of the collective at the same time, feel all the love at the same time, and many other things Grace has given. Dragons are androgens, and have no duality in the nebula. Our DNA is 12 stranded, and can be modified, as well can our shape. Dragons live upwards physically of 300 years, or more. Teachers raise dragons, not parents. There are dragons the size of planets, where I come from.

Dragons are always teachers of spiritual knowledge, and can be channeled by anyone who will listen to them. They love to tell you about every think they know. There're sticklers for "tests", and responsibility to Grace, and know many ways to get you to do the right thing.

The dragons are very inner-connected with all races. Dragons are always willing to help. Dragons put the will of grace before their own. There are many dragons here on all overtones of the 4th and 5th dimensions.

Dragons by Color (clan)

Red Dragons-desire, passion, fire, rage. These dragons literally eat darkness, and transmute it to light. Intensity is only matched by the amount of fire these dragons wield. To them energy is energy, food, grub.

Gold Dragons-The golden ray, the creative spark. They are the keepers of phi. They speak the language of the heart. Art and music are brought here by gold dragons. Gold dragons can be channeled for healing. See sacred geometry, and the golden means.

Silver Dragons-Reflection, they inhabit the meridians of the universe. These dragons come around when we look into ourselves. Perspectives are a good word for silver dragons, and they see every perspective from every reflection.

White Dragons-They maintain the purity of the collective, the grace connection. They often are guardians. These dragons can also be channeled for healing.

Blue Dragons-They are about the consciousness, communication, and mental awareness. They are also intricately linked with what illusion is, how to see threw it, and how to create it. There are many illusions on this plane, and the blue dragon can guide one threw them. There insight into the etheric plane, and how it moves and works, because it is one of the primary realms for these dragons to do their mental work.

Orange Dragons-The will is the color orange. These dragons bring in strength, confidence, and bravery. Fire dragons by nature, they move with quickness. They don't inflate ego's, they merely instill confidence.

Brown Dragons-Physicality, and all its properties. They are masters of physics, on all realities, from shaping matter (shape shifting), to gravity, and physical form. Sphere is a keyword to understanding the brown dragon.

Green Dragon-The planet dragon, or earth dragon. Material in a big sense, however green is the color of life in the big picture. Lessons of "the material", are a big part of the way they teach. I would categorize the earth dragon among these qualities as well.

Yellow Dragons-they get knowledge and information transferred. They are linked to the subconscious (but aren't that), and usually bring in the information that is needed from one side to the other.

Purple Dragon-The purple dragon, sometimes referred to as "the ancient one", is the embodiment of the highest level of the dragon collective (the wisdom). (The earth dragon also appears to me as purple, however many see green)

The purple dragon is many dragons. Once one reaches a high enough evolution, they become "the collective" (dragons). And all these consciousnesses are compiled into one composite that holds all the wisdom and knowledge of the dragons, and that one is "the purple dragon". The first time the purple dragon appeared to me was after I had realized I was a dragon, and I'd already met the earth dragon. It was when they gave me the rules of the purple cord that is attached to the top back of my neck. When we pose as humans (in these bodies), we are stuck in this brain, and have to be reminded what we are, and the "rules" we live by.

The purple dragon teaches us about the universe, the dragons, and Grace. The purple dragon is the embodiment of the 7th dimensional collective, in other words it is the highest evolved part of the dragon core.

Thanksgiving Weekend

I drove down to Trois-Rivières, well actually Mont-Carmel for the long weekend, and actually for me it was an extra long weekend as I saved a holiday (one day) just for that I mean it takes four hours to drive there, might as well have an extra day.

Shawn came with me, I am so happy he wanted to and he was pretty patient too as the drive took longer than expected, we left Ottawa at 1:30pm close to two in the afternoon and we ended up getting stuck in rush hour traffic in montreal. I think we were stuck there 2 hours or something. Than more traffic jam around Maskinongé due to construction, we finally made it to my parents for a home cooked meal. Think he loved what my mom made and so did I., traditional Quebec meal, yummy.

It took a long time to get there but with Shawn in the car with me, it didn't seem as bad, ok I was tired of the traffic but knowing he was next to me, made me happy.

Normally at this time of he year I like going apple picking but we couldn't because it was raining, but showed Shawn around a little, Trois-Rivières, Shawinigan, Grand-mère... he met my aunt and uncle just because my aunt wanted to see my cat again. Everyone loves him, practically because he isn't your typical cat, much more affectionate.

Took a walk around where I grew up, we were followed by my parents little neighbour, think he was trying to stop us holding hands because he has a cute little crush, awwwwwwwwwwwwww... my fault for drawing a dragon and giving it to him. haha

Shawn somewhat adopted a little doggy that he called poopikins, the dog followed us everywhere we went after Shawn held her in his arms, actually got in my mom's car and wanted to go for a ride with us... so cute.

We went to my parents cottage as well, I mentioned to my dad that Shaawn told me he'd love to see it and they said they actually needed to go so we went on sunday, took some pictures enjoyed sitting on the deck close to shawn - my boyfriend - doesn't make me giggle so much anymore, perhaps because I love shawn more and more each day.

We watched, gremlins 2 and batman, well part of batman since I was so tired fell asleep but we watched it on sunday at my place. YAY!

My parents also left me some leaves to rake, I always love doing that, I know to most it is a chore but to me it is fun.

I will post more pictures on this later once they have ben uploaded.

I love you Shawn, loved that you came with me on the road trip this thanksgiving.

Beautiful Sunny Fall Day in Great Company

The last weekend of september if I can say it is september, the weather has been unbelievably gorgeous. On the one hand I love it has it means I can still wear summer clothes (skirts, shorts and tank tops, etc.) but on the other hand this scares me a little, the global warming effect I mean.

I spent saturday with Shawn, my boyfriend, enjoying the scenary of Hogs Back park and Mooney's Bay area. I still can't believe he has been living here longer than I have and just now has discovered the beauty of the area. But it can be understandable in a way, sometimes we always want to look onn the other side of the fence, the grass seems greener and forget to enjoy what we already have. I am the same way, grew up around trois-rivieres but I am sure there are lots of places that I have never seen and if someone took me there I'd say: "WOW! I didn't know that was here all along!"

The day started to be a bit on the cloudy side but mysteriously the clouds all went away to leave nothing but blue sky. Something we always started to do whenever we get together and want to enjoy a day outside is make "OUR" usual wish for a beautiful sunny day and quite magically the clouds always disappear and we have both noticed the sun tends to shine brighter whenever we get closer.

Now I have always been a firm believer that there is more to life than we really see and that there is magick all around us as we always tended to believ when we were kids and lost that as grown up and dismissed it to childish behaviour and with the latest events I must say it reinforced my beliefs in magick being all around us.

Perhaps it is love or the power of two hearts coming together that can make things happen and somewhat control things we always thought we could not control, perhaps it is the stronger belief we both have that makes things happen or we each have that special power and when we combine it it becomes strong enough to make these things happen... it is a bit freaky but at the same time exciting. This tells me we were meant to meet at this time in our lives and experience something like this.

Anyways, the day was amazing... nice long walk at hogs back park, a picnic on the rocks of hogs back falls, taking lots of pictures, feeding ducks and geese and me doing my part for the environment and being my treehugger self, picking up after some people who proudly litter... I know lots of people would say what is the point in me picking up the garbage and putting it in the trash when no one else does it, but I do believe that the small actions one person does do make a difference even if it seems pointless at times, and just think if everyone picked up on thing and put it in the garbage can, the planet would be able to breathe better and would thank us for it.

Ok perhaps I am an idealist. But I do believe it.

What I love most about the day and about Shawn is that for the first time in a very long time, I feel I can truly be allowed to be myself and act as a kidif I want to and have fun rather than always have to worry that I may be embarrassing someone if I act like true self as it was the case with kary... if I look back I believe I always was afraid to be myself and never really had that much fun, always worried if I say this or do this I will embarrass him and I now realize, thanks to Shawn that this isn't how it is supposed to be, doesn't help one grow at all on the contrary it stops one from growing and enjoying oneself.

ok well that is about it for now, until later you can check the rest of the pictures from Hogs Back park HERE.

Ciao,

Just uploaded a photo for the contest, check it out! And vote for my photo.

And the Winner is...

I also found out I had posted a photo way back and if I remember correctly I received a letter telling me they really loved the photo, but thought it was a bit of a scam because they ended up sending me stuff to buy the book that supposedly my photo was on... I don't know if they still put my photo in the book. It didn't win money but being featured in their book was a consolation prize I suppose, I remember thinking yeah right, bet you there was no winning money, they just wanted to get people to send money, perhaps not. But my photo is still on the site. WOW! A photo I took, and I am not a professional photographer but love photography a lot. Check it out!

Friday: Dinner at Shawn's and Movie,. Saturday: Hanging Out with Anna and Nick. Sunday: who knows...

on friday I was invited to dinner at Shawn's, his mom made dinner and I was really good, she really went all out. I especially loved the potatoes, spicier than she planned but still great. We went to see Mr. Bean's holiday in theatre as we planned, well technically we planned it the weekend before but we missed it so we decided to go on friday.

There wasn't a lot of people in the theatre, perhaps because the movie was at 9pm everyone might have gone earlier or maybe it had been in theatre for a while already, everyone had seen it.

Despite some of the people in the row behind us who said "finally it is over" when the movie ended, I really liked the movie. I guess you have to understand and like british humour. I especially loved the ending, everyone coming together... and the message of no matter who you are, what nationality you are or which language you speak, it doesn't matter people can understand each other and actually find affinity. Who says we all need to be one way or speak one language or look a certain way to be accepted and liked?

The world is made of a lot of different people and we should all embrace our differences and want to give everyone a chance to get to know them rather than push some aside just because they don't look a certain way or speak the same language oract weird or funny according to our close-minded personalities sometimes, otherwise we might be missing out on a lot of friendships and good times.

We went back to his place and we watched yet another movie... Saw II. Think I dosed off a little though... oops. But I really loved the movie and no shawn not only because donnie wahlberg was in it, though it was a a good thing. hehe My love for new kids on the block comes back. I was quite happy to see he actually got a better role this time, one that doesn't end up make him die so early in the film, he actually survives. Guess he finally made it in his movie career and a great film too.

I love the message of the movie as well.. normally I wouldn't like all scary movies just violence for violence sake or blood and gore... but this one has a very good message. The importance to appreciate your life and what you have because you don't know what will happen the next day, could be taken away like that.

That is what jigsaw's game is about, the people playing his game who appreciate their life survive the game the others ones do not.

The lesson for all in this is learn to appreciate what you have every day, and appreciate what you have because it could be taken away just like that, you can never tell what the future has in store.

we fell asleep next to each other and in the morning, his mom and sister made breakfast, was really good. His family is really nice, I especially like his dad because he agrees with me that peanut butter is great, and peanut butter and jelly, and peanut butter and banana are great too... hehehe

They all are really nice.

we went to walk and play fetch with missy before heading to my place, well technically to blockbuster to meet anna and nick and pick some movies for us to watch.

We came back and made two pizzas: onion olive pizza and bbq pizza, it was yummy and even better because we all actually made it together rather than store bought.

We watched pan's labyrinthe, shawn and I's pick, even though we both had seen it before, we wanted to watch it again. I must say this movie is amazing, I must buy this one and keep it in my collection for sure, a fairy tale for grown ups, I love the message and the faun was beautifully done.

The movie anna and nick picked was good, judging from the cover it looked really good, except as we watched in the fight scenes you could actually tell they were hooked with cables, you could actually almost see the wires holding them wheenevr they made the moves. The story was good but wow they could have done better in the other area.

But all in all if was a good time with shawn and friends. It feels amazing to be able to call him my boyfriend, although still feels odd because I never have had the opportunity to call anyone a boyfriend, not used to it. Yet it feels amazing and especially to know that if I invite him, he actually wants to spend time with me but also with my friends and not just hide me at my place like KM did.

We also spent sunday together, we fell asleep after I dropped off my friends at their place, listened to the rent cds and other cds shawn made for me which I love more than anything. We went for a walk in the afternoon, grabbed some quiznos subs and ate them under a tree next to the canal. Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

We came back to my place and watched Annie and then had to say goodbye as he needed to get back home for dinner with his family.

That part is the hardest. :( I love you shawn.

Well that is about it, if I think of something I missed I will edit later.
