i was tired of vancouver not being a link. it deserves to be. unlinked words looked lonely and unloved.

no, unlinked words are special, they break the monotomy of underlined words

re: lonely and unloved, they're full of potential!
-and-
if I start a new blather, within the next 2 days, someone will have added to it, however, if I don't it could remain unblathed for years, kinda odd..

so many thoughts of vancouver
rampant in my heart
hardly a day goes by without
thoughts of my old stomping ground
childhood and schooling
growing into oneself
losing myself
in the city
forging my way though the crowds
remembering the week i left
the way one misses what has passed
feeling betrayed by little regrets
glad for what is gained
I cling to the fragments of yesterday
vines of reminiscence
those days forever in my blood
memories of seagulls
the sunshine and rain
spanish banks
the steps
so many shops
the scent of the ocean
the friends i knew and loved and those i will never see again
puddles in the streets
cherry blossoms
the confusion of concrete and steel
the mayhem of closeness
i have been a citizen of this city
the weight of memory locked in its measure
how i would tell you of its beauty through a child's eyes
its inspiration in a young girl's heart
the way it can take you in and never let you out
how much has it changed since i last roamed its streets with the ghosts of my past?
when i think on it now, with so many illy composed words and mixed emotions, it's almost impossible to even begin telling you of my days spent in vancouver,
the city of my kin

nom-that was absolutely beautiful.
user24-yeah you have a point. unlinked words have potential. i like thinking of it that way. but they still look rather lonely in my opinion. words that no one has cared enough about to blathe on yet. i guess i could look at life that way, though. the way you do. that it's not that they are unloved or lonely, but just full of overwhelming potential. you may be changing the way i look at life. though, nearly everything these days is changing the way i look at life.

this is great
when i am a senior in college
((in vancouver of course--i was reading about the university of british columbia last night))
they will be having the winter olympics there
2010. god that is forever a way
i am so young and it is driving me mad.
i like figure skating. i wanted to be a figure skater when i was younger. though, i have only ice skated 3 times in my life. ;)

Olympics are good and not good/ulimately everything is positive/negative!
good idea for the city bad idea for the city
our premier is a liar and a loser/everyone is beautiful and my friend!
it is going to cost a lot of money to stage this at a time when BC is undergoing radical shifts/changes and government social funding is being slashed at an enormous rate. solutions need to be rethinked so as not to harm.
things my grandkin worked hard to establish are being undone by this unjust government
homelessness on the rise what a suprise
lets keep the protests alive
! SOS !
i think these things are decided not by the cool ppl who want to help the world with peace love and understanding but by THEM ... we all know who they are (who ultimately do help the world)
who_knows ?
we will see what unfolds!

other than if maybe somebody here has been spamming me without my consent, i don't believe i have ever been emailed by a fellow blatherskite.
feel free to probe my mind.
i have to say though, there is probably a fair chunk of stuff i don't know about Vancouver.

"Affordable housing means housing that costs a reasonable amount compared to a person’s income. In the Greater Vancouver area, the average rental cost for a one bedroom apartment is approximately $800 per month. This is half of what someone working 40 hours a week at $10/hr earns before any taxes or deductions. Those living on a working class income should spend no more than 30% of their pre-tax income on housing."
