Me..

So i don't think i've ever just blogged about myself..Just me. So i thought i'd do that, to explain all my crazyness..and while i'm doing it i'm going to put what song i'm listening to..because i think this might be a long blog: Here goes..

(24 - Switchfoot) So i was born April 21st, 1985 in Mississauga..at "apparently" 8:40pm. The reason i put apparently is because i, like a lot of people in the world, was adopted. So for a while i never actually knew the nitty gritty's about this and that and the other..but i think thats what i read. Yea. 840. Cool. I was adopted on i believe..September sometime. Into the family of Malcolm and Barbara Robinson. I have one brother (John..6 years older) and one sister (Laura..5 years older). I've had lots of pets in my past too..some gerbils..a cat..a dog, a fish and now another dog, who i love to bits even though i swear he's a Canine terrorist..he hates everyone other than us and himself.

(Hallelujah - Rufus Wainright) See..i was born in Missisauga. From "toronto" we moved to Winnipeg for 2 years..then Labrador (which is "kinda" in Newfoundland) for 3 years. From there we lived in Ottawa for 8 years. In 1999 we moved to near London, England. This was when i was..14? I think, yeah. So it was really the first time a move actually affected me, because this time i actually knew what it meant. But i LOVED it! England was great..great church, friends, hanging out and what not..but then in 2001 i was informed by my parents that we were moving basck to Canada. This shook my world..i didn't know what to make of it.. i thought we were done with the moving, why'd we have to do it again? (Last words - TFK) But all the same, i picked my bags up and left. To go to Edmonton..let me tell you..at first i hated it..cuz i went straight to camp where i sucked my first year. Didn't know what i was doing. Then i went to Edmonton Temple..and loved it..people were so nice..great youth group led by some great people, hockey every monday, and DYB (i mean who can complain, HONESTLY?) This went well, i worked at Pine Lake Camp for 3 summers (01,02,03) mainly beside one of my best friends ever, Skoch. Love you man..so many good times. And then..a few months before i was to head to PLC for 03 my parents told me we had been asked to move to Toronto. I lost it i mean..COME ON! THis is ridiculous..i had really gotten quite tired of having to leave my friends and make new ones. I was furious..why why why why why. So i went to camp this summer and through prayer realised it was for the best.

And so i loved that summer, fabulous..made a really good friend, which made it even harder to leave. But i knew i'd have these friends for a while, especially one who i considered like my best friend ever. So i moved here..and things were good..talked to epople from Alberta..and then my friend stopped talking to me..and i just felt lousy..like why would God send me to cities to meet great people just to move me again and have them forget about me? (Photograph - Nickleback) Wow..ironic..good song. Anyway..so ive know been here for just over 2 years. And i have amazing friends. I could name a few of you but i'm pretty sure you know who you are. And i have great friends in Edmonton who still talk to me, and i thank them for that. I don't think they can realise how much it means to me that i moved 2 years ago and they still care. It's one of the best feelings ever. I worked at the camp here for 2 years now. Not sure if i have a third one in me. We'll see.

So thats my life. I think what i'm trying to say out of the last few paragraphs is to thank my friends who have kept by through thick and thin, including leaving them for another city. You guys have been the glue holding me together. I can't thank you enough for that. Scarborough people, Wabana/JPC/DayCamp/Rainbow people, Edmonton Temple people, Pine Lake Camp people, England people, Ottawa people, and everyone else. Thanks. And to the people who havent forgotten me no matter how bitter they are that i moved..i love you lol. Especially you Skoch you're still such a good friend, even though i live in Toronto and you in Calgary. And to my very special friends at Scarborough..the bunch of you that are ALWAYS there for me..words cant express. Anyway i'm done. Thats me!! To finish off..Nothing Else Matters (Metallica)
