Leftovers
Pictures taken throughout 2004-2005 school term
It's been a crazy trip but here we are, on the edge of summer peering over the precipice of Real Life and all that bullshit. But before diving into certain doom, I thought it might be fun to take one last look back at all the ridiculousness and tomfoolery that engulfed my final year at Wilfrid Laurier University. This is a collection of pictures that didn't make it into other galleries for one reason or another - generally laziness, though - but still offer heap big nostalgia value.
I have to warn you, however, that there are an inordinately large number of pictures of Me + Random Other Person taken in the time-proven style of "Hold Camera at Arm's Length and Point Directly at Faces, or in the Approximate Direction of Faces, Depending on How Drunk and Uncoordinated Camera Holder May Be." I am a huge fan of this Do-It-Yourself Punk Rock brand of photography, but I fear it may look somewhat mainstream and homogenized in large quantities. Just sayin', is all. I'm sure you'll eat it up like scrumptious Sweet Tarts.
I am also far too cracked to write captions for every single one of these innumerable pictures, so at this point I am going to ask you to play Green Day's consummate classic "Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life)" while viewing this gallery. That's right, go ahead and play the tune! MP3, CD, vinyl, whatever. Preferably over and over again in an endless loop that will cause a small tear to slide down your cheek as you remember the good times, or - if I never really met you - to imagine the good times that we had in your absence. Aaaaaand GO.
Another turning point, a fork stuck in the rooooooad...
NOTE! The fabled 1-inch-punch: a staple of our frequent ventures to Molly Bloom's. Me
and Hoodie constantly tried to break their tables with our finely honed knuckles, but in
the end it was Tim getting in a fight with a bitchy girl that ended in the table's demise.
Sorry for interrupting the song!
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to gooooooo...
So make the best of this test, and don't ask whyyyyy...
NOTE! What's this? Is Blair smoking and then coughing??
The answer is YES. Once again,
sorry for interrupting Green Day. If the song is over, you'd best be looping it if you know
what's good for you! Nostalgia comes with a heavy price.
It's not a question, but a lesson learned in tiiiiime...
CHORUS! It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right. I hope you had the tiiiiiiime
of your liiiiiiiiiife! You guys should probably be weeping softly and mouthing the words
along with the song by now. If anyone else is in the room, don't be ashamed to share
your feelings with them!
So take the photographs, and still frames in your miiiind...
Every rose has its thorn just like every night has its daaaawn... oh wait.
Hang it on a shelf in good health and good tiiiime...
Tattoos of memories and dead skin on triiiial...
NOTE! This gallery has become a Gavinstravaganza! Deepest apologies for interrupting.
For what it's worth, it was worth all the whiiiiile...
NOTE! Outdoor hockey with Ed Belfour! He was drunk as shit! Forgive me for interrupting.
CHORUS! It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's riiiiiiiight. I hope you had the tiiiime
of your liiiiiiiiiife!
NOTE! Meegan and Jen were teaching the Shetland Pony, Lawn Gnome and Graduated
Lion about high-quality knives! Yes I know, it makes no sense, but stuffed animals need
kitchen utensils too. Onwards! And sorry for interrupting!
GUITAR SOLO! It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's riiiiiiight. I hope you had the
tiiiime of your liiiiife!
Bring it on home, Marta's Birthday!
It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right. I hope you had the time of your life.
