thirty two

Guess what I did today?! I crossed #32 off my bucket list! I’ll save you the extra tab opening… I visited a psychic! As if Hamilton was nutty enough… I decided to visit the Hamilton Psychic Expo today. I tried to find anyone who would come with me but no one was feeling this whole weirdo vibe I was giving off, asking who wanted to pay to let a stranger tell us about ourselves. This is something I’ve wanted to do, but for what ever reason never got around to it. I heard on the radio that the expo was this weekend and I was all over it…

I drove in after a 10am yoga classes looking real sweatpants haired chilling with no makeup on and paralleled park like I was driving a steamboat on the beautiful streets of downtown The Hammer. Stunning, Both Hamilton and myself. Upon arriving I was greeted by a long bearded man in a mustard coloured dragon shirt who took my money and told me to take a crystal. (This was weird, but not uncalled for) I grabbed a pretty one and began walking around like the most awkward human. It was super overwhelming. I’d say there was 20 different booths with psychics offering different services from tarot cards, angel cards, numerology, aura reading, mediums, you name it. I walked around and chatted to most booths and they kept saying where ever you feel drawn to is the one you should go to. I didn’t know what I was doing so I went to the one giving out free werther originals.

I paid $60.00 for 20 minutes. This probably falls into the category of “unnecessary finances” that my mom is talking to me about, but I didn’t drive to Hamilton for a handful of werthers and a crystal. First thing that struck me is her telling me I need to finish my aesthetic diploma… I do not have one of those but she was on the right track… I have obtained my Advanced Diploma Of Massage Therapy, but I have never got my registration number from the province. Although this is something I think about daily. I spent 3 years working my ass off for this, and although the Diploma is great there isn’t much you can do as an Unregistered Massage Therapist. I was intrigued.

She asked some questions but I was reluctant to give her too much info as I was a bit skeptical still. She asked my sign, What I do… She then quickly went into my love life. She asked me how I’m feeling about my relationship… I said I’m not in a relationship and she looked super thrown off, she asked me if I was sure… heck ya I’m sure, don’t think people in relationships have go to psychic expos by themselves. I told her I’m dating… but nothing serious is going on in Jennatown. (Note: did’t actually say Jennatown) She said I feel a really strong vibe that something is going on right now… She then went on to say wether it was the person she was picking up or not. My next relationship will be very important. He will be my one… (Please don’t let this information scare off any potential men, I won’t be upset if the gyspy lady was wrong)

She looked at me and said “Babies!, your going to be such a great mother, Do you want to know how many?…” I said yes with a smile… “3, two boys and a girl…” I start crying… WHY I AM I LIKE THIS… I’ve just always wanted 3. It was so crazy that even though I can’t l bank of this random gypsy women mapping out the rest of my life but… It somehow put me at ease.

She said some things that weren’t really right at all but I could even see myself taking them and trying to see how they could apply to my life. She said I drive a red car… Wrong. She said I will be getting a new car within the next few months… Defiantly wrong. Unless I am I going to roll up the rim to win this new red car you speak of. She said she sees mountains and boxes implying that I should move back home out west… Wrong direction if you’re sending me back to the motherland. I am however going on a Holiday to Aspen and just moved to Oakville, Take what you want from that I guess.

Something interesting, She told me without me telling her anything about my recent blog project that I should write and finish whatever writing project I started. That people need to read my words and that I should continue to write whatever it is… Crazy eh.

At the end of the day your life is going to be what you make of it and who’s to say I don’t win the lottery tomorrow or my next relationship won’t be till I’m 55. I don’t feel compelled or pulled in any direction after my expensive conversation but I do recommend it if you are interested in expanding your horizons or exploring new ideas. I’m a big believer in trying anything once, (enter small mediocre bow tattoo) and twice if I like it! So here's to 32!
