Let's Get Physical -- (I Mean) -- Political

I think I should title my posts after I wrote them.

I get a phone call last night from my (hopefully) soon-to-be 'douce moitié'. He annouces his entry into the world of politics and asks me to be his campaign agent. My mind says something like: "agree now, ask questions later", so I do. More action goes down on g-chat, and I'm left wondering if this is what our relationship will be like: me doing everything to be a part of his life and him living his life. My next question was: "so who else is on the team?" (silence) "Is it just you and me? Adl and Vncnt again the world?!" and he said (jokingly): "well yeah, you remember the comic!" I giggle and say 'yeah' while imagining us sitting at a big table with papers all around, looking at the other lovingly. Then I proceded to make jokes about being his 'agent' and making piou-piou sounds (ie. gun shots, yo).. It seems I do have some serious responsibilities though..

Why does my mind do this to me?!

I got out of politics a while ago. Honestly, I didn't even know there was any talk of elections until I read it on an Olala blog. And as I was reading it, it didn't even sink in that the author was talking about the current state of affairs in canada. I think the Vncnt's doing something good. I suppose the point is: he's DOING something. That's respectable. Now.. if only he could DO SOMETHING with me.. I cringe a little while I say that. My (slight) feminist side says: "get off your ass and do something yourself! go for what you want! take charge!".. But there's so much risk involved. A little birdy told me nothin's for free, and I should get some action out of this political commitment i'm making. I think my subject (which I changed towards the end of the post) sums up the situation accuratly.

In other news, school is still exciting. I still try to create occasions to talk to people, projecting this very friendly front. I'm not sure how long it will last. I've signed on to the Cinema Students Association to do some finance stuff (hopefully with someone else). They say we can get credit for it, so that's pretty awesome. I'm planning on filling my time with lots of activities that are rewarding. I'm still keeping drama down, and positivity up.

That being said, I'm now officially a YMCA member. I'm planning on taking aquafit classes, starting Sept.15th. This is all very exciting. I know it's lame, but it makes me feel hopeful for the futur. My parents were never members of anything, or participating in society, trying to make themselves or the world a better place. I feel like if I can be a member at the Y, it brings me down to earth. Even though it's a superficial 'grounded' feeling. Maybe it will grow into a deeper grounded feeling.

This weekend some quality Vnss-Cinema time will go down. The new Coen's film is playing, and we're going to see it.

Great poster!
