Hey boys and girls.... i know i haven't been here in like ages. More like I started uni again and got really really busy and banned TA for the sake of my academic success. So far, it's working because I made it to third year!
Anyway, i've walked away from the scene and probably lost many friends that I once knew on TA. I just wanted to take this opportunity to say i've missed you all. Now, i need your help! I'm taking part of a fundraising event (i.e. Terry Fox foundation) and if I raised $500 or more, I'll shave my head. It's for a really good cause (like cancer research) which is really important. It's one of those things that has hit really close to home.
I'm doing this to look like my mom who's recently just started to lose her hair cuz of chemo. SO in effort to cheer her up one day, I want to come home one day with a bald head just like her and show her how much money I've raised to look just like her. Any of ur contributions will be really appreciated and I promise i'll post pics. Rocco will go bald and you all can have your laugh...
Ok so here is the info:
What: Rocco goes bald
When: Sept 13, 08
Where: Toronto FC Red Patch Boys Tailgate
Why: For my mom
How: Cordless shaver

I wish our experience at Sunnybrooke is the same. They've been really hard on my mom and they're having a hard time with nurses and staffing at the moment. We're currently looking into private healthcare but cuz we're in Canada, it doesn't really exist. I really think it's time for our government to have a 2 tier system. It works well everyhwere else in the world
