I DON’T HAVE A TITLE ALSKFAJLFKASDJG5SGA
I love living in Calgary, yo.

I mean, I loved Vancouver, but that was different. I loved the city. It was my escape from everything else (mostly school and the fact that I had zero friends and the fact that I was so, so sad there). Here, I not only love the city but I love school and I (sort of) have friends and I have Nate and I have happiness!
It’s big enough population-wise that there’s the feeling of anonymity, but it’s big enough area-wise that there are good chunks of the city that don’t feel “big city” at all, which is nice for walking.
I also feel a weird connection with Calgary. It’s probably because the 1988 Olympics were held here just a few days after I was born. Which is a weird reason to feel connected to a city, but what are you gonna do.
Finally, everything that’s happened up here so far has made this the most accurate fortune cookie fortune I’ve ever received:

*Theme from “The Twilight Zone*
Weird thing happened today…
So a couple weeks ago, we go to Mongolian BBQ and I get this fortune which says, “Opportunity is just around the corner”.
We go again today, and I get the exact same fortune!
What’re the odds? Perhaps my opportunity is college.
Or a traffic accident involving a blind corner. You never know.
What?…why?…when?…confusion.
Rejection at every turn today.
Perhaps I’m just imagining it, but it seemed pretty real. I got a fortune cookie yesterday that said “your popularity will increase”. I figured it was right, considering my popularity could not possibly get any lower.
But I guess I was wrong.
Like I said, though, I could be imagining all this…
…but I doubt it.
But happy birthday, mom!! I love you!!
