An Exciting Challenge for Renee!

So, we just finished writing our epic 10 page letter to Neil, and I was inspired to write more, to other famous people that I don't personally know! And then today, Renee had the idea to make it into a competition. Because that is what we always do: make it a competition.
She suggested that we each choose 10 people to send a letter to and then base the "winning" on the number of replies received. I realized, however, that I only really have 5/6* people that I want to send a letter and then 2 that I could force myself to write to. Furthermore, I am neither made of time, nor money. So I suggest this: we turn it into five?

I hereby take you up on your challenge.

Without further ado, here is my list of famous people that I'll be penning epic letters to.

1. Dustin Lance Black
2. Jorma Taccone
3. BJ Novak
4. Seth Meyers
5. Daniel Bruhl
6. Jed Whedon*

* I can't find his address on the ol' interweb. I say we do 5 letters unless I can find it sometime soon. So Renee, when you make your list, make sure you have an extra one just in case.

RULES (because there has to be some):
- It must be snail mail. It is a dying art, as you say.
- You cannot base your list upon who you think is likely to respond. It has to be based on people you legitimately  like. So Renee, I better see Sawyer on that list...
- By the power vested in me, I declare that Evangeline Lily does not count.
- Add your own rule, if you like.

It's a plan. How about that?

Peace, Gab

This is going to be one of those personal posts

I am walking on air right now. The uncertainty that I felt 30 minutes ago is gone.
I am officially going to university next year. I was accepted to McGill earlier today, which is my top choice Canadian university and I am thrilled. I will (almost certainly) go there next year and cannot be more pleased! I mean, I won't be living on the streets next year! And, more importantly, it's a freaking amazing school.

That's enough for my self-involved post.

Sorry you (our many many readers) had to sit through that.

Peace, Gab

I can say, without a doubt, that Freddie Mercury has the most insane voice anyone has ever had. It is for this reason that I will be naming my future cat "Freddie Mercury" (Freddie for short).

A Tribute to Renee's Favourite Actress

Or her character, anyways. I found this video and anyone who watches Lost knows that this song PERfectly describes the character of Kate.



I'm excited about the Kate/Sawyer reunion even though I know it won't work out like I want it to:(

Isn't it funny how both my favourite actresses are brunettes from Vancouver? I think it's pretty funny. It's because BC is AWESOME.
