...from a Katimavik alumni
*insert girly squeel here*
and guess who it was (this is where you guess)
**
KYRA!! aka www.katimakyra.blogspot.com
yeah, I didn't realize it so I feel like hitting myself, because I would have told her how amazing and wonderful her blog was, and how alfjdasuuuuuuuuuuujfhlasfk no words, seriously I am angry that I wasn't paying attention. I wasn't paying attention and I feel really bad because it takes a lot of courage to actually call someone you've never met to talk with them. Anyways this was the conversation to what I can recall after a long while of squeeling with excitement
Kyra: Hi this is Kyra and I am a Katimavik Alumni, I was wondering if you were still interested in Katimavik (I can barely hear her at this point because my sister and mother are blasting the television:( )
Me: Oh, Hello (I am trying to contain everything, because I GOT A CALL FROM KATIMAVIK:D)
K: So, I was wondering if you had any questions about the program, about my experience, anything?
Me: Ummm, no not really ( I panicked I was put on the spot and my mind was blank, sadly, and she already answered all of my questions on her blog, but I didn't know it was her)
K: Oh! Do you really have no questions about anything...?
Me: Well...I read a lot of the blogs so I know a bit
K: Do you want to hear about my placements?
Me: Yes..(OMG YES! I WANT YOU TO TELL ME EVERYTHING!!!)
K: Well, I went to Vanderhoof and Quebec City, in Vanderhoof I volunteered for the Volunteer Agency and in Quebec a homeless shelter (I can't really remember..:( Damn my horrid memory) and in the laundry there
Me: Thats so cool! ( the full extent of how lame I am in conversations)
K: Anything else you want to know?
Me: Ummm. No, thank you!
K: You told me you read blogs, well mine is the one at the top of the list
Me: Really?
Then I don't really remember because it finally clicked that this was the girl whose blog I loved reading!! I want to kick myself because my voice kept shaking because when she said she was with Katimavik I panicked and though it was my french exam, and also it was dinner for us, and I really dislike talking on the phone, because I hate how my voice sounds and awkward silences and so on:( sniff sniff, Call me back, I promise next time I will have something intelligent to say :)...I hope
I hope she doesn't think I was being rude...seriously if I had known who she was...alas! She will never call back and she will continue thinking I am a loser. Sigh, times like this I wish I was cool....
Kyra if you ever read this (whats the likelyhood of that happening) I want to apologize for being such a loser, and tell you that it is amazing what you are doing, it takes guts to call people you have never met, call me back I promise I won't sound like I am just hitting puberty(just kidding)
Make me feel better, tell me stories of when you totally messed up an important conversation
