Apperently the mounds.....

There was an island. Amishty Island from what I can recall. I'm sure that's not the right name, you know how you can't real in your dreams supposedly. The is land was shaped like a crescent moon, with a large land mass on the upper part, then a tapering rocky jut out to the sea on the lower.
On the end of this rocky part the was a smaller, almost circular island. Big enough to hold a small light house and a some of the mounds. The mounds were where the vikings berried their dead long ago so this Sea Dragon, whom I never got the name of, wouldn't sack the island.
The one little village on the island consisted of a conservation building, 5 or so houses, a dock with a fuel pump and a little general store with a larger variety of items. The Conservation building held the library/books store, where you could buy "The Legend of Amishty", a top seller. It also held the Mound committee, the environment committee and the light house workers union. The light house workers union consisted of one worker, Akash, who came all the way from India.

That's all I know about the island and the people. But man was it a good dream. I don't know where the power came from but the town was nice. Although I didn't get to see the mounds due to rough seas I took in a lot. The is land is only an eight Km walk around the spine.

Dream shared!
Roscoe.

FUCK CHRISTMAS!

I hate Christmas. HATE IT! Everyone gets stressed, and fights and everything that can go wrong ends up going wrong!

I missed one of the best eclipses in 300 years, then I didn't do anything for the solstice because people had to go to be at 10 o'clock....
My computer got Internet ass fucked this morning so i had to rip that apart and kick some ass.

SO! I'm pissed, really pissed. That is not good for my heart! NO BEER! So I'll sit here and drink tea and read. If any one bothers i might end up going to jail for murder...

I'm working on the blog this week I guess, maybe something special for stupid shit fest about that Jewish zombie. Like re write the nativity story... ;P

Couple of notes. No you do not get to hear about my first love, that Internet is dangerous and I'm keeping this blog more private, and no your not going to hear about my perfect world because that's part of why it's perfect. No one knows!

Food is good. I love you. But I hate you. (You know who you are!)
Roscoe

Hold Message

I've a lot of work going on right now. 15 page essay, and two tests next week. Just letting you know that Wedge Radio is on hold until I get home in mid December.

But the major reforms will take place over break! Look forward to that.

Question 30

30. Who are you? When are you you? When are you not you?

Who am I? I can't say, it's all personal opinion.

When am I myself? I'm mostly my self in a casual setting around good friends.

When am I not my self? There's too many scenarios to list, but I'm not me way too much. This has changed some over the last little bit though. I'm growing up (EW!) and getting things together.

Question 28

29. A place where you feel most comfortable. A person you feel most comfortable with.


I feel comfortable in many places, but the place I feel most comfortable would be my room at my parents house. Yeah yeah, I know that seems generic and all but it's the truth. All my stuff is in there, it's got my own personal flare (cool sheets hanging from the ceiling), and people rarely come in there. I can be all alone with my music and some food and do what ever the fuck I want, it's awesome.

Now, as for the person I feel most comfortable with, that's a different story. I like a lot of people, and most of the time I'm a friendly guy. But I've never had a person that I've totally trusted before, I don't know why I'm this way, but it's not really a bad thing. Some secrets (none of them are bad just personal, so no worries folks) are just meant to be kept to your self.

My dog knows everything but he's not a person so....

Roscoe

Question 28

28. Your most prized possession and why.

Prized possession hey?! I know!!!

A very very long time age when I was just a wee laddy, my family and I went on our summer trip to the valley to see relative that live there. On the way we stopped at the Ross Thompson farm. It's a little museum/interactive farm place, fun for kids type deal. After the little tour we went to the gift shop and I got a little, simple, blue spin top. That thing has been in our house for ever, and even today I can sit and spin it for a damn long time. In fact I have more fun, the dog hates it but he won't bite it, just tries to paw it.

So now your like "What the fuck Roscoe?! You're really lazy on these blog posts! Smarten up! give us some deep secrets and such!!" Well, no and no. Remember that old saying "Possessions are fleeting." I believe in that to some extent. I'll explain how I came to this answer. My prized possession can't be a person or animal, you don't own those. It can't be something that a lot of folks would choose, that would seem like an easy answer. So like a computer is just shit, I like my compys but I don't see them as a prize. I didn't choose my guitars because, for one, I have more than one, and I see them as just a part of the grander part of "music" in my life. It had to be something special but that shows who I am and how I think...

The top is always there (there was a long while when it was lost but I came back and was all the better for it!), it calms me down, makes me happy and can eat time away like a fat kid eats a cup cake. It's simple but has a complexity about it(it spins!!). It's the best top I've ever seen! I can get it to spin for a good 4-6 mins sometimes. It's just fun. If it was to disappear again I think I'd be OK, I know if it would come back later, there's magic there for sure!

If my family is reading this and the top has some how met it's end via a chew from the dog of maybe got stepped on then let me know ASAP! If not, then find the top and hide it away from harm!

Roscoe (I'll get a picture of the top over break and make a page about it.)

Question 27

27. List 5 things you want to do in your life.

Maybe edit that question... "27. List 5 things you want to do in your life, as of now."
That's better.(I'm smart enough to know that people want different things as life goes on and plans are never what they want to be. That makes life fun!)

1) Travel. I want to actually go the whole way around the world once, live in Europe for a few years and then hit up New Zealand for a long while. I don't know what the details are for this trip but it most likely will happen at some point.

2)Own a homestead. I won't say farm because I couldn't run a farm, but a half asses homestead with some cows, goats, chickens and a bunch of dogs would be cool! Nice wooden house all open inside with some sky lights and a giant loft bed, wood stove and secret office/study/den.

3)Get a degree. Working on it! Going swell!

4)Live in the woods in a log cabin for a while. A year at the most but if I'm alone then probably only a few months. No, I would not be surviving off the land nor would I seclude my self from others. I just want the option to be in total solitude, not the actuality.

5)Number five isn't coming easy..... hmm... I think that's all I really want. I guess there are other things, like getting married or such, but that's more like "It would be cool if it happened but I'm not going to kill myself tyring fro it." I guess all I really want is to be happy.

Just some simple little things that don't effect anyone but me.
Roscoe.

Question 26

26. A time when you hurt someone’s feelings but don’t regret it.

I hurt people all the time and feel no regret what so ever. In fact, most people's feelings I hurt i feel good about because they usually deserve it.

There was a time when I could tango with the best of them, that is the ass hole people. But now, in my old age I've come into better values of life. That part of me is sleeping now a days but I can wake it up if I need it. It's easier to avoid dumb asses rather then take the time to insult them and such.

Really, I don't think there has been a time where I've regretted hurting someones feelings... scary.


Watched Ronin last night, it's on my favorites list now, check it out. Also if anyone knows where i can watch Into The Wild for free send me a link! Thx
Roscoe

Question 25

25. Are you a rebel or do you like going with the flow? Why?

I do my own thing. So sometimes I am a rebel but sometimes I'm not? Really if your a rebel your still going with the flow, just in the rebel group. Right??

I skipped 24, it's going on the long list, might get it done tomorrow. I'm not sure where I'm at on the list but it will all be done by November 30.

I've got music for two new songs, but I'm trying to think of something good to write them about, but nothing to restricting. Nothing else has been happening that's worth talking about really. There's going to be an update to the blog sometime soon, and I'm going to get some challenges going so I can get some more readers and have google pay me... :D

Roscoe.

Question 23

23. What is your passion? How did it become so?

What is my passion?! Let me think.... Ok, you how sometimes you can just be sitting and your just all chill like, in the moment. Just thinking "Yeah, this is great". That's my passion, I live for those small little moments in life.

Just another simple answer, I'm not being lazy it's just the way I am.
Roscoe

Question 22

22. Something your proud of.

To be proud of something is vain. I don't feel proud of thing, just happy with somethings I've done.

I don't have anymore to say on that subject. (note that i don't begrudge other people being proud of them selves. it's just not for me.)

Roscoe

Delay message. Question 21

So I've got 2 papers and a test this next 2 weeks that I'm working on/studying for. The blog isn't on my to do list at the moment. But if I do have time I will come round and write up some things.

21. Something you’re ashamed of.

I skipped 20 because it's really good and will take some time to think about.

I'm not ashamed of anything that I can think of. I'm bummed about some of the choices I've made in the past but it seems I've learned from my mistakes and have come out on top. I don't do things that would make me ashamed really. If I do think of something I'll come back and edit this.

Question 19

19. Have you ever ran away? If not, would you?

I've never ran away ,no, but there was sometimes when, as a young child, I recall threatening to run away.

I would run away in a heart beat if conditions were right, but alas I have too good of a life to do so.... :(
I'm a big fan of the whole live in the log cabin life style. I also realize that it's no easy feat at all! But some day I'm doing it, I promised my self.

If you like this stuff then I have some recommendations:

Into the Wild. both book and movie, read the book first!

Alone in the Wilderness. I've only seen the film, but it's legit documentary not Hollywood BS, there is a book as well.

Heimo's Artic Refuge. One of the last people living this life style: http://www.vbs.tv/en-ca/watch/far-out--2/heimo-s-arctic-refuge-full-length

If you know of any other videos or books like these put them in the comments. I might get a page up with all of them and some other goodies.

Tally Ho!
Roscoe

Question 18

18. If you were going to have 10 kids, 5 girls, 5 boys, what would their names be? (first or full names)

Okay... (no particular order)

Girls: Carmen, Sasha, Sarah, Ghwen, Mika

Boys: Peter, John, William, Cale, Joram

Dogs: Hopper, Shael, Kastor, Pagan, Wulf.

Nice proper family.
Roscoe

Question 17

17. Your favorite childhood memory?

Favorite childhood memory eh? I've always been a sucker for the simple things in life. That being said, my favorite childhood memory would have to be me waking up on morning and looking out the window to see a fresh blanket of snow. School was cancelled so mom made pancakes and me and my brother played with Lego all day. It was awesome, and just fills me with that joyful contempt when I think of it.

Question 16

16. What is your biggest fear right now?

Nothing.

Roscoe

Question 15

15. A prank you’ve pulled on someone and a prank someone’s pulled on you. What were your feelings and thoughts through out each. Have your feelings and thoughts changed?

I can't say that I've pulled a prank one someone. A good prank that is. I'm not big on pranks actually.

There was one time where I was pranked pretty good. It was April Fools and I was at STFX. One of the guys on my floor got up at 4 in the AM and put shaving cream on every ones door nobs and put the big trash bins in front of my door. When I woke up and opened my door the trash bins fell over and spilled beer cans everywhere. It was funny because the janitor was just walking around the corner... Lol. It was all cleaned up no problem, she was a good janitor and seemed to like us all.

It was a good laugh and I didn't mind it at all. I've got a good sense of humour. I still don't feel the need to pull pranks of people, but I would if I thought of a real good one. As far as them being pulled on me, well, as long as they're decent and not just mean/stupid, then cool!

Cheers
Roscoe.

Question 14

14. Your life story in three words.

Beginning
Middle
Present

That was a dumb question....
Roscoe

Question 13

13. If you ever ended up in jail, what crime would you have most likely committed?

Oh boy!

It would be more than one crime that's for sure! None of that nansy shit either! All or nothing.

I would go to jail for : Genocide, murder, assault, war crimes against humanity. The evil in this world needs to be eradicated.

I wouldn't take over the world, just a small part of it, like just fix up Nova Scotia and start a new country, kill off all the unwanted/unusable people and get things rolling. Natural order would be restored, an animalistic government would be dictated and everyone would have a place and skill. I my self would work like all the rest, no rich no poor, just people living and surviving.

No doubt there would be constant war with other places but for the most part we would win. All the citizens would be trained in combat and fight for the homeland.

But with such power of the other countries coming down on me I would obtained and thrown in jail for life. Here I would write books and think a lot about the past.

None of this is plausible or really how I think, just fun.
Roscoe

Question 12

12. Choose a song that sums up the year you've been having so far.

This is a horrible question. There is no one song that can sum up a year, month, week, day or even second of some one's life! I'm quite livid that this is in the challenge. However! I'll play along for the most part, but I'm choosing more than one song. (think of it as a movie montage of my year. These would be the songs that play.)

January to March- Dancing Days By Led Zeppelin: I listened to this song so much that I started to live my live by the words. The song seems to talk about new beginnings or happy times, which was the case at this time.

April and May- Locked in a Room by Oren Lavie: I was going through a shit tone of shit at this point in the year. I felt like I was stuck and not going anywhere, but I could look out a window and wish I was out and about.

May and June- Send Me on my Way by Rusted Root: Application was back and I was going to be off to UoM in the Fall. It's literal so I'm not explaining it, if you don't get it, then don't read my blog anymore... :)

July and August- The Alabama Song by the Doors: I had everything done a lot of money and no stress so I drank my ass off!

September- Weary Memories by Iron and Wine. Happy as I was, there as a lot of personal memories come back about a certain person while I was a UoM for the first month, and then that person got in touch with me.....

October and November so far. I'm Amazed By My Morning Jacket. I'm Amazed with my self and how good things are :)

Question 11

11. You’re locked in a big closet with 3 people, who are they, how did you get locked in the closet, and what are you doing?

So this closet would be one of those old type one's in an old house. the kind where you curious so you want to explore around and find all the secrets.

The 3 people would be my brother Jake, my mom and her sister, my aunt Tammy. We go on crazy adventures all the time that always leave me happy as heck.

No doubt my aunt Tammy was asked to clean out this old house by some fuck tar d that she know. Since it's a cool house with old things in it she'll ask mom to come along and me and Jake to lift heavy things.

After some menial work and a bottle of Lysol or Mr clean we take a break. Me and Jacob would go to the second floor and discover the old closet and want to know if there is anything cool inside we could use (steal..). More often than not it's just old shit. But this time there would be cool things in there. Like an old guitar or some cool jewelry or books.

Mom and Tammy would wonder up and come in to look around. Me being a smart ass would shut to door causing darkness and make scary noises. Since it is an old door and I since I slammed the door it would no doubt lose it's knob. Now we are locked in the closet shouting at each other and laughing our faces off.

We'd get out by either, me or Jacob figuring out how to unlock the door or prying it open, or calling some one to come rescue us.

Ahh Adventure
Roscoe

Question 10

10. How do you react if the person next to you is crying?

I've had this happen several times. Most times is some random person that I don't know, so I just ask what's wrong with a smile and ask if they need anything. More times than not it's been about some douche bag boyfriend. Or some best friend chick fight... I usually just tell them they'll be OK in a couple of days or so and not to worry.

Rarely have I been next to one of my actual friends crying. But it has happened. Always smile. Always be supportive, even if you don't agree with the problem, you can be supportive and give an opinion. Hugs can help depending on the person. Music is always good to. One time I played a silly song on a guitar for someone and they cheered right up :).

All in all it's best just to try and avoid the problem that would make you cry in the first place (unless it is sudden death or something unpreventable, then you have to cry).

Crying can be of happiness!
Roscoe

Question 9

9. How do you feel about yourself?

I love myself and I always have/will. I'm always there for me, I know what's best and what I what to do to get the best.
There isn't one thing I don't like about myself. It's all good. It all has a place in my life and grand plan.

Question 8

8. If you could have anyone next to you right now, who would it be and why?

If I could have any person right next to me now it would be..... my self. Yeah that's right. It's 10:21 at night and I've spent the last 3 days around people, who have been fucking up my routine, and I want to be alone!!

I spend most of my time alone, this way I get to think more and reflect/day dream events. I like people (very few) but I don't feel the need to be out and about all the fucking time! (this is all read in a happy mannerism not angry :))

I know it may seem weird that I didn't choose something else. Like a dead loved one, or some famous person or some person of my own creation. But I don't want the dead to come back, and I don't like famous people, just the characters they play or music they make. As for persons of my own creations, well, if it's just me here then aren't they here in my head as well? (that's creepy... crazy fucker!)

I'm not a loner, I just like being alone as much as being with people.
Roscoe
PS I could have said I wanted my dog here, but that's just beating a dead horse. Lol. Night!

UPDATE!

It's been a while since I've done a proper update so here we go!!

I've bought a guitar, a Jasmine by Takamine. It's a wonderful noise maker. I've been playing none stop for a week and a half. However I've not had the time to write anything, well, anything proper. I have learned a couple new songs though, so that's good!

I now have 6.2 day's of music in my iTunes library. I still have a list of a tone of other music to download. Legally and legitimately of course...

I just got back from the dead people clothes boutique (salvation army thrift store) and I picked up 2 nice shirts for..... wait for it...10 dollars! Oh yeah! Afterwards I stopped at the tiger store (no tigers for sale... I was bummed). I bought a pair of boots, a bennie, and 3 kinds of tea for 30 dollars. Awesome deals! The nice lady at the counter told me to drop my back pack off at the front next time or I would be searched... To which the nice man behind me said "He looks like a thief." I love this city, really!

Tonight I plan to drink tea and catch up on some class that I missed Monday. Samhain was enjoyed with wine.... so I had to sleep in on Monday. But it's all good.

That's it. Hope you are enjoying the questions.
Roscoe.

Question 7

7. What was on your last shopping list?


Easy

Boots, Bus tickets, Jacket, shirts, tea and "munchies".

Update today after breakfast, so in an hour. :)

Roscoe

Question 6

6. Write a letter to the person you’re closest to.

Dear Jack

It's been a whole 2 months since I've hugged you. My mornings aren't the same with out a fuzz ball to wake me up; or the cold nose in my ear... I miss you enough to cry sometimes, but, since I'm not a woman, I don't. I can only imagine what you must feel. You don't even know if I'm coming back, or why I left in the first place. If there was some way I could tell you I'm sure you'd be cool about it.
Most people love their pets, and see them as family. I'd say your family but I can't say I'd put a tag to it. Your not my son, or my brother, not a father or uncle. Your more like a part of me. One in the same.
We've been on countless adventures in both the actual and other worlds. Never once have you let me down, or hurt me. Well, you've bitten a lot but I bite you too.... lol
I can't put this bond to words, it's unexplainable but you and I know what it's like and that's all that matters

Love you Boo boo.
Roscoe.

Question 5

5. Write a letter to someone you've never met.










To whom it may concern,

Today, October 31st 2010, I, Adam Roscoe, have finished building my time machine. I have travelled back to warn you about the pending doom. Dogs have been mans best friend since before earth was created. You may ask why? It is because they are Transformers sent here from the planet x-10 to protect us from the evil conquerors of the distant galaxies. These terrible destroyers of planets are known simply as Squirrels. Our canine guardians have been relentlessly attacking these squirrel invaders for centuries. If humans do not unite by December 21st, 2012 earth will be overrun by squirrels and eventually our existence will come to a close. Heed my wise words and join forces with your canine protector and rid this world of these ungodly varmint.

Yours Truly

Adam "Peaches" Roscoe

Letter by:
"The Alpha Male" Cole Wreggitt

Question 4

4. Words you live by. Why do you like them?

Words I live by... "Sex, drugs and Rock 'n' Roll". There you go.

This question is a hard one. The words I live by could probably take up half of this post. Really, can't say that I live by words. I just kinda live my life and do some good things when I can. But for the sake of the challenge I'll sting some bull shit together :D

Family, love, friends, knowledge, music, and food.

I'm very family oriented, as much as we fight we're closer then most families. This includes my non immediate family as well.

Love is just a given. I might not know what romantic love is, but I've got all the rest covered pretty good. Sex is probably in here as well. I like sex, proper sex, enough said.

Friends. Friends are awesome. It's not a term I throw around lightly either. I have a few friends compared to the people I know. Of those maybe 3 or 4 are best friends.

Knowledge. Knowledge is power and I exploit this to the full existent. Muhaha.

Music. Given that I'm not a good musician I think that I'm pretty creative given the skill that I have to work with. It's one thing that never fails me, and never will. I'm not big on sharing this part of my life but the few times I have has been wonderful.

Food. Food is a trio, food, drink and sleep are all intertwined. Food is good as well as magical. Drink, water is the best thing in the world, we should all worship it. Sleep. Sleep's just nice. :)

Like I said before, I don't base my life off of some quote or list of values I have. I'm smart enough to know that people change as well as the world around them. To try and keep things the same is just horrid. But there is somethings that are solid in life, or that can be made solid. That's where i get the words from.

It's all an opinion but good none the less.
Roscoe

PS
Picture is just cool eh? Stuff like that can make you feel better but don't let it get to you.

Question 3

3. Is the truth always good to hear? Why or why not?

No the truth is not always good to hear. A 5 year old child could answer this question. It's good to be told the truth in some circumstances but not always. Some things just don't need to be told or admitted. A healthy medium has to exist between telling and not telling the truth.
Now this all changes from person to person. And also that it's very easy for someone to say "I'd always want to be told the truth", but when they hear it, it sucks... So really, all you have to do is use your own discretion and common sense. One big rule, as I see it, is to mind your own business. :)
Roscoe

Question 2

2. List ten people you would die for. (no particular order.)

1. My brother, but it would have to be a good reason....

2. Mum. I need her to cook for me

3. My grand dad. He has to live for as long as possible. The world needs him

4. Jacknafien, my dog. Before you get all funky and such, he's a person to me. It would probably kill either of us inside if one of us dies.

5. Kate (eat it bitch)

6. Hugh Laurie. Who wouldn't die for that man?

7. My other brother. I can't really see him getting into a life death situation and even if he did I'm sure he'd be fine, but if it did happen...

8. My best friend. (who is it?! Oh no!!) Might be able to guess who it is. Might not. maybe we'll find out later on.

9. Auntie Tam. She gets into trouble all the time so I might have a very short life.

10. My Dad, but only if he was unable to take care of himself. after all he's my dad and it's his job to die for me really.

I hold my life in very high regard and don't want to die. But I'm not afraid to die in the least. given that I have not faced death in the slightest but in such a circumstance that i would have to die for a person then it wouldn't matter anyway. it would be an in the moment action and all thoughts would be void.
I hope I never have to die for a person or a person never has to die for me.

Happier questions on the way.
Roscoe.

The month of October it a wondrous time for many university students. It can be the make or break month. The social chatter is that of various midterms and papers; maybe even the odd project. I my self cannot help but laugh at the various study methods and random cooping methods some of these people use. But hey. Fuck them, it's my time. :D

Got a big weekend planned this week, hope to get some things done and actually get out for a while. Birthday party on Saturday and a healthy dose of Medieval/fantasy role play in the Field. That's right, there is a res event going on called LAIR we people dress up as fantasy characters and beat each other with foam tubes. FUN! Being the classy man I am, I can't see my self partaking in the wars, but maybe a nice bardic position will open up, or a medicine man...

I've found out today that I'll be home on the 15th barring any fuck ups of the West Jetter. I am excited to get home but I'll be bummed out to leave Winnipeg for a while, weird eh? But I need to go home. There's a wonderful blond fuzzy waiting for me to hug him and run about the woods with.

I've also started to make chain mail as of last week. Nothing professional mind, but it could have some nice effects of personal affects(like that? yeah, all me). Some day I'll have a full suit and can take my LAIR RP to the next level.... lol. One time thing I SWEAR!

Hope all you are good and if not.... well then get good!!!

Capital

Weekend is going swell! I've gotten so much done on both the work and play front. Went for a 2 K runs along the river. Makes a person feel so good knowing that you did it.

I've reached 5.1 days of music in my iTunes library. The really cool part is that i actually listen to all of it. There's still so much more music to get. I can't wait! Must explore the world of sound.

I went to the mall on Tuesday night and hit up chapters for a while. Ended up getting 5 books for 40 dollars, it was an awesome deal. So far they're turning out to be really really good.

I had a Classics test i aced this week but a history essay that I made a dumb mistake on. Also had a Religion paper that I feel I did good on. This week I have a test in my Language in culture course, going to have to study all week for that, but no worries.

I'm still loving it here and can't see my self not loving it later on. Don't know why I didn't think of this sooner. Damn the young stupid choices we make. Not that i regret them, just hate them.

Happy Thanks Giving dance to the moon.
Roscoe

Update!

One week and a tone of crazy shit.


Went to a party last night, good time. Drank to much... Good reminder about the whole of things.

I've got a lot of work done but not enough. Tomorrow is going to be a "lock the room" day. Must study my way to greatness. Greek Culture test a history essay and a Religion paper. I'm excited to do them but worried in a good way.

I have Good Will Hunting on right now, and it might change everything! AH!

I'm really scraping the mind to get this post at a decent length. So! Lets do some reflection.

I had to do a vision quest for my religion class. I had to actually think about my self, doing so get me pretty happy. My life's good, it needs some fine tuning but I think I can handle that.

I have to get a guitar! Music is my life and not having one is stifling my creativity! I've too much things pent up.

I have a hard time conveying my happiness in writing, but I am very HAPPY! I figure it'll only get better as it goes on.

getting a bus pass tomorrow and I'm going to run the city transit system and see the wonderful world of Winnipeg.

John Butler's here in November. So fucking pumped about it, hope I can meet him get an autograph.

Done. Sorry for the weakness of the post.
Roscoe.

Sunday

It's Sunday! I have so much work to do. But that's ok because I have the time and I feel like doing it. I find it relaxing to just sit and do my homework, and, depending on what it is, I sometimes have music going.

It was homecoming this weekend so Saturday was pretty good. I also got to go the the Manitoba museum down town, nice bus ride. I met this guy, on my floor, turns out he's been to STFX the same year I was and ended up coming here as well. Small world. He took me to the museum thing.

I'm taking my time writing this in between breaks from my work. I really don't have much to write about at the moment. I'm sure I'll think of something as the day goes on.

One thing I do want to talk about is this awesome bacon sandwich I made this morning for brunch. It's going to be my Sunday thing now. The bread they have to make toast is really good and there's always a tone of bacon. I don't think anyone eats it because they're all proper students and think that they are being healthy and will get good marks. I can be healthy and do my push ups in my room while being happy eating my bacon sandwich and just loving my life!
Anyway it was a good sandwich, nice bread, butter, some lettuce and tomato but mostly bacon. :D

Notes are all done now! Sweet! If I can keep this up my Classics test should go well. I've got about 3 hours of reading to do today as well as some analysis of an ANTH article. No worries, I got this.

And ten years later....

I assume this is true for most people at a young age. When your young, you imagined what life would be like when your older. I know I used to do this. I even had some plans for when I was 20. I don't really know what all of them were but there was some general ones.

1) Not to look like a punk
This was more so for my teen years but I'm not quite out of them yet so I'll put it in. I remember watching TV shows and seeing "teenagers" with that punk look/style and being scared that I would look like that when I was a teenager. Well it didn't happen so yeah!

2) Play the drums.
I ended up playing the guitar which was wonderful in it's own right. But I do have the bongos and dejembe drum, so I'd say check!

3)Have a pet wolf.
Jack became my pet wolf. It wasn't that I wanted a wolf just a strong bond with some kinda animal that was my animal. Jack is my animal and I'd die for that dog. Enough said.

4)Forest home.
Working on it.

5)Travel
Now travel at the age of ten was to Halifax and back. I'm way ahead on this one. A whole 200% ahead.

6) Some random stuff.
I know that's broad but I can't remember anything else. There are some givens like school and money and wife/GF (ha!). But I guess I was a practical kid, or just really stupid and sheltered.

Now that I have some time in the mornings I'll get back on this thing and dish out my secrets to the Internet. maybe even a sex tape or 5.

Classical Studies

Read This. Minus the depressing parts it's nice.

Here in the "PEG"

6:30 Atlantic time I took off on a plane headed to Toronto; never to touch NS soil again until December.

The flights were awesome, however I didn't get to meet anyone cool. I was tired by the time I landed in Winnipeg air port but woke up fast enough when I was assaulted by a very excited best friend! :D

Turns out that Winnipeg is even better than i thought it was! My opinion might change soon though, from what I hear of the winters. But it's too late now, I've got to sleep in the bed I've made. What a nice bed it is too.

My room is fucking huge. Bigger than my room at home. There is one down fall, though, there seems to be a shit pipe coming out of my celling... It does look cool, and I was ok with it, but last night someone left a tap on for a while. I don't want to go to bed on a Saturday night only to find that some drunk bastard has left a tap on above me. Lol.

There was a social last night in the courtyard. The DJ was fucking sweet! No one was at movie night, or I was in the wrong place... lol. But no worries, I just chilled in my room and went to be at like 10:00. Damn jet leg...

I hope to pick up the last of my stuff today and find out where my classes are. I signed up for an orientation class today as well. Library 101, it's only an hour and I'll need to know how to use the library and online archives.

All is well
Roscoe

Long time is long...

8 more days and I'm off to Winnipeg. Very pumped, had a dream about the flight last night. I can't remember what happened but it was a good dream.

This weekend my parents are having a party at the cottage. I'll get to see a bunch of people and say "Bye suckers!" :D

I needed to write....

Enter John(picture). John spent most of his early life jumping from foster home to foster home. At the age of 14 he smoked his 1st joint. At 16 he discovered the wonders of whisky and the process we like to call "drunk philosophy". John lives in The US of A. Fuck you John, you mother fucking sap job. :D

Good night to you all. I went sailing to night in preparation for a great feat I'm about to undertake. On Thursday I'll be sailing in a tiny boat the length of the harbour. I could die. I hope I can eat and sail at the same time. No booze.

That is all. See you tomorrow night.
Roscoe.

I sank the boat....

So I had this dream that I was at the marina and I had to untie a boat. Turns out I was untying the wrong boat and this old lady started to shout at me. I retied the boat and then went to show her the boat I sail on, Eric's boat.

I was thinking to my self in the dream "You know, she's not so bad, maybe she was just cranky at something else." Then that bitch went and put a whole in Eric's boat and ran away.... I got blamed for the boat sinking and cryed.

I could have cryed when i woke up too. I'm going to find that woman in dream land again and do horrible things to her. Horrible things!

I have many things to do to day, start to paint. This blog, some guitar, and go to work.... :/
The blog is done as you read this so that's cool, and the painting might just be to edge a wall or finish taping the edges.

Need to look up some video editing software tonight :).
Goodbye
Roscoe.

Finally,,,,

Today's blog comes to you in 4 steps:

STEP 1: I am officially a student again in the eyes of both the government as well as the Bank.

I went to the bank the other day with my Da to get everything ready for my journey to the west. with in 4-5 days I'll have a student credit card and some other goodies.

Banks scare me though; one has to keep a sound mind when dealing with those crafty bankers. I figure I'll just keep my money in a shoe box when I get older any how. It's not like I'm going to be rich....

STEP Deux: I'm swearing a pact with my self, soul and all who read this. I, Adam Roscoe, heir to the Roscoe Kingdom, will not get intoxicated for one (1) year. Why you may ask? It's a waste of money, money that I need and could spend on better things, like food. I don't like being drunk and it really seems that I had more fun as a child, so there!

STEP C: It raining here but I love it. It's chilly enough for me to wear pants so.... I am. There was some thunder for a little while, I tryed to play guitar with it. Didn't work out as well as I had hoped but it was none the less awesome!

STEP 9 - 5 = 4: I was looking at old pictures and such and realized something, some horrible thing.... There is a lot of people not in my life any more and I'm not going out and meeting any new ones. I don't mean like in a general state I mean close friends and such. In simple terms... I'm running out of people to love :( It just kinda hit me looking at pictures of my grandmothers.... And then the other night I was bored and wished I wasn't single and could cuddle or somin.... Hmm that's gay! :P

Good day!
Roscoe

On A Whim

Life is wonderful! Go out and live it! There is always somthing for you, I love you all. Night :D.

Tiss Ptties

I've been up for about 20 hours by now. Me and the guys went camping. It was too much fun! My sides hurt really bad from laughing.

So at the beginning of the night I went to dinner with my mom and aunt; after which we popped over to the yacht club and had a drink. From there I gave Joram a ring and ask what the plan was for tonight. He said he'd pick me up and that we where meeting Andrew and Luke at Luke's place. We get there and grab a bunch of random camping things and head to the camping spot.

In ohio we picked up Jesse and made a 20 min drive to the old hunting camp, started a fire and watched Luke drink himself silly! I can't even begin to explain the shit that was coming out of his mouth, he was SO drunk! Tiss Pitties was his favorite swear for the night. eventually he passed out in the cabin and we just sat around until 3 in the morning talking and having a time. We burnt 6 beer bottles, try that some time it's really cool!

Before we went to be Joram went swimming and was like a little kid in the water. All his yelling and screaming woke Luke, who, still being drunk, came out and shouted "There's Jerk all over every where!" Yeah.... disgusting!

Finally we went to bed but not in the cabin (there was bats!) but on the back of the truck; it was not comfy. At about 5 in the morning it rained so i ran inside the camp, spent a half hour looking for bats then finally went to sleep for an hour.

We left at 8 and Joram and I went to subway for breakfast, it was good.

Think I'll have a nap...
Roscoe

The Night to Remember

Work was hell on Saturday. It was bad enough that I had to get up a 7:00 in the morning but I also had to go landscaping in the damn heat!
Not all was bad though, Lenard the puppy was by for a visit, the owners like the smile he puts on my face so they said they'll try to get in more.
At the end of the day I had to go to a place called Blanch and deliver a tree with my boss. It's about a 40 min drive from the store and I didn't really want to go. But there was a beautiful woman waiting for us when we got there. It turned out good.
I waited another hour for Andrew to get off work so we could go get Chinese food with Joram. It was one of the best meals I've ever had. Barring the red wine, never get red wine with Chinese, it's horrid. There was two biker gangs in the restaurant, "The Defenders Ch. 10" and the "Southern Ravens". It was a little scary for a while but they we're all really cool and a little drunk. After the meal we drove by some walking and Andrew shouted "THE DEFENDERS YEAH!!!!!!" and they all cheered. Joram told him to shut the fuck up before we got a hit put on us.... lol.

We made our way to Andrews house for which we left to pick up another friend and go swimming. On the trail to the lake we followed a porcupine named Hector. It was like a little parade; every time he stopped we all stopped. Hector wasn't scared at all of us, wish I could have kept him.

Aside from that nothing has happened. New blog page tomorrow, page not post, and a new chapter to "Sailing South"

Byeeee!!
Roscoe

Vacation with work

I finally got to go to the Cottage for more than one night, with the family. It was just like old times, literally. A couple of old friends that moved away in 1999 were back for a couple of days.

It was a fucking great time, however, I'm getting two damn old to stay up till 5 in the morning. That messed me up so bad my feet hurt! But it was fully worth it, don't think I've had the much fun just talking to someone before.

Work last night was dragging on, so 3 hours seemed like 5. It wasn't bad though, I got to meet a new dog. He was a little black lab, collie mix, named.... wait for it.... Leonard Cohen, :D. That dog's going places.

Courses are all picked for UoM, had a little "jumpin" moment after it was all done. I'm like a fat kid with a cup cake, so excited!

The sun's trying to come out today. It's about fucking time. I'm headed to the yacht club at 4 then sailing for 6 and back to work for a few days, leading to my 4 day vacation!! Won't be heading to Evolve this year but I'm going to make the most of it, somewhere far away.

Don't Die.

Sailing South Part II

Sailing East means one thing, I have to go by Africa and that means Pirates... But since I'm in the lovely south I'm sure I can get guns pretty cheap and once again, since I have nothing there will be nothing to steal!

Destination: New Zealand. Estimate Time of Travel: 3 months. Where to stop: Head off from Uruguay, cross the Atlantic. Once over the Atlantic I'll have to stop in Cape Town, Africa, it will be one of two stops I make on that nasty piece of land. From Cape Town I'll head up and over to Madagascar and re supply again.

The next bit of sailing will be trough some of the most dangerous waters in the world, I'll have to fight pirates and the like, as well as avoid all the UN navy ships who would pick me up in a second. This will be hard and I might have to re-think my position.


Might see If I can actually write these in greater detail every other day, then throw in some real posts randomly.

Roscoe

Sailing South

At least once a month I get the urge to "leave it all behind". Not that I have something to run away from anything, more like I'm running to something. At the moment I'm not going to run away, due to my life changing plans I have in effect. But over the winter I was about 500 dollars shy and a car away from leaving for a while.

What got me going this time is a sailboat at out marina. It was used to try and smuggle illegal Lithuanians into Canada and now Canadian Customs owns it and wants to action it of for really, really, really, cheap. So, if i had nothing, aside from the money I've saved, I'd buy it and sail south. Now, I'm not one to be cocky or brave/stupid enough to sail all that way alone. I'm sure I could get some other people to come along. Like put up a sign in random ports and get people to sign up for a life at sea. Just like the old days. Yeah, there's a lot more I have to do, I know I can't just leave but I'm not going to bore you with details.

But what would I do in the south? Well just look at the picture above. All I would have is a boat! NOTHING else!! So nothing to worry about! No obligations! Just survive! Believe me, I can live on nothing. It's safe, no one's going to steal my nothing so I could go anywhere and not worry. Good times in the south. Eventually I would see if i can make enough money and sail east with either the same crew or a new one. Set course for New Zealand.

Part II in two days

Good day
Roscoe

Nothing,

Nothing has been going on at all. I had that nice week last weeks and now it's all mellowed out, like.

Came home for the next couple of weeks, dad's got the foundation for the barn layed down so soon we'll start work on the actual building. I've got some things to figure out about UoM and am not having a fun time doing it. One more email and then I call.

I work today for the lovely 3 hours, get to hang out with some dogs I hope. Trivia's tonight but I think it might be a no go. There's only 3 guys on our team and one heads to Toronto tomorrow for a booty call :P and I'm poor again... But if my other friend wants to go I'll get 3 bucks and go with him.

So yesterday I was fucking sick. Like puke a lot sick. I don't know what the fuck happened but it was horrible. By 5 I was OK though and headed to the yacht club to go sailing. I waited till 10 to 6 but the guy I was going with didn't show, which was OK I just hope I waited long enough and he doesn't think I ditched him.

I've got to take the dog out now. Have a good 2 days!

Finding Good in the Worst of it.

Wednesday night after work I got picked up by a friend to got to trivia. We went to trivia, sat down, got some beer, and waited.... No one else showed up for our team and all the other teams were short a lot of people as well. So it was canceled! me and my friend ended up going to Scotia lunch and got a couple big juicy Bacon double Cheese burgers!

After the burgers were ate we walked the old rail road tracks now tuned trail to the edge of town and then trough town back to his car. Since there was going to be Canada day things going on tomorrow I ended up just crashing at his place. It was nice, just like old times. We played Halo and then his mom watched the gargoyles cartoon with us until 2 in the morning.

We slept in until 11 then cooked bacon and eggs. After breakfast we played an old computer game from our childhood and kicked some ass! At 4 we headed into Lockeport and had to wait for 2 hours until the other guys got there and then had to go to some house/party where we knew no one and hated the rest...

The Fire Works were good and I had a good time watching them and was getting excited because i thought we where all going to the cabin but then that got fucked up because of other peoples drunk parents.

I ended up staying home for a change a got to see my son which is nice. So in the end it was all good, and not once did I get mad I just enjoyed the time in other ways! :D

Good day
Roscoe
