hulloooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
my name is shen and i like to make silly sites to solve my problems
i originally made this one because i had no friends in vancouver (problem) because everyone was moving away (another problem) and that made me soooo sad (yet another problem. do u notice a pattern)
now i have more friends back in vancouver but guess what. i am Moving
not to sf. defying all odds and breaking stereotypes. i know
anyways. i will be in TORONTO soon. allegedly. renting here is diabolical.
with that. i would like to Put Myself Out There and make some more friends and have lots of fun together and keep the horrors at bay (impending east coast winter. breaking: West Coaster Cannot Believe Seasons Are A Thing)
friendship ENDED with self-sufficiency.
now The Mortifying Ordeal of Being Known is my best
friend
some perhaps relevant info about me that is more up to date
(and not
from when i was seventeen years old)
- i like to read and walk around and that is all i could really ask for in this life
- i've eaten at least 10 pounds of carrots in the last few days and i may be turning orange
- that is all i can think of right now. check back later maybe. sorry
in the case that we end up hanging out. i do prefer to do things that do not require spending unnecessary money. i have become way too competent at paying around four dollars plus tax and tip for a teabag at a coffee shop with a bathroom key attached to a large object. also so many social activities in vancouver revolved around getting food and i am so so over it
some shenanigans we could get up to instead:
- make a website together at one of toronto's public parks
- pick out books for each other at one of toronto's public libraries
- search for funny looking rocks scattered around one of toronto's beaches
- go for a nice long walk (would luv to eventually hit 100k steps in a day..)
- scope out local markets for free samples (is that a thing here..)
- locate an outdoor table to play some sort of card or board game atop
- walk down every aisle at a grocery store and freak out about the prices
- alternatively.. go to chinatown and buy lots of produce at yummy prices
- go geocaching except i do not have a premium subscription anymore. hm
- find a nice patch or two of grass to read criss cross applesauce on
- scour thru the racks at a thrift store.. not one that buys wholesale please
- learn a new card game together and not zone out reading instructions
- sign up for and attend free local events together #yaytoronto #yayculture
u want to hang out with me sooooooo bad..
frequently asked questions (hypothetical)
what do i get out of this??
- lots of (platonic) love.. a bad party anecdote.. invitations to cheeky future little gatherings w my other friends.. maybe even a silly lil site about u..
what if i am not in toronto??
- get over here silly billy. but also reach out n e ways. especially if u r planning to visit in the foreseeable future. i am bad at email right now but i promise i read and cherish every single one dearly and will get back to u as soon as i'm fully settled down in this crazy city
- ** i am also going to be back in vancouver every now and then
heads up!!
that i am even more socially inept in real life. and i like to go mute at the function. and i interact with a staggering average of 2 people (a rotating roster if u will) every day. this is a big shocker i bet. a devastating blow u were not expecting from a girl who spends a lot of her online
speaking of heads.
here are some very real testimonials from my very real friends who did not receive paid compensation and did this willingly btw
"yeah she's cool i guess"
"oh um"
"who is that"
"help me"
yes that is all. i do not have that many friends. case in point
