Done!

I can't believe that my second to last semester is done.

Today was a long day, Katie's phone rang at 7 am which woke me and I couldn't fall back asleep which resulted in me getting less that 5 hours of sleep :(

I got out of bed at 9 as did some packing as studying and tidying up. I had breakfast as well

I reviewed notes and had a sandwich for lunch and at 120 Jenina, Katie and I walked down to the school to write our final exams and my last exam was by far the easiest. I was done in 50minutes :) which was good since I started the exam at 130 and the airporter was picking me up at 330.

The drive to the airport was long and bumpy and got quite motion sick and the
Motion sickness continued on the plane :(

Luckily it was a quick flight and my daddy was waiting when we landed and it was nice to see him

We got some white spot on the way home because we were both hungry an once I was home I got to see my pets, Oliver was VERY excited to see me and picked my face for a long long time

Patches was also happy to see me but I was saddened by how skinny she looks, I'm worried about her, I think she needs different food,

I'm now doing laundry and relaxing in bed and I get to spend three lovely weeks at home, I'll be back to blogging in the new year. I head backup PG on January 6th

So until then

Night!

1 sleep 1 exam

I stayed out a bit late, I was hanging out with a guy named Derek, who seems very nice, and we had a nice time, lots of. Conversation, but he likes to correct my English....but he also likes phineas and ferb and was excited about my perry the platypus pencil case

Earlier in the day I studied for finals
Played some settlers of catan
Said good bye to Kris since I likely won't see him again before I go. We had a wicked good bye hug :) it involved being picked up and I felt so tall haha

I also said goodbye to Liz who went back home today and Elaine who also got to go home today

For dinner I had nutella croissants which was a bad dinner choice before an exam

My exam was at 6 and it was ok considering the amount of time I had invested into studying

Now it's late an should be off to bed
So close to home

Night!

2 sleeps, 2 exams

So close I can almost smell home (not that it has a particular smell) Last night I did not sleep awesome, Katie, Liz and I slept in the livingroom and theres the clock that ticks and Liz makes eating noises in her sleep, and all in all not a nice sleep. I was out of bed just before 9, and got down my suitcase to pack, and stripped off my sheets so I could wash them. I put my mattress back in my room and then did laundry, washed my sheets and my towels, so that when I come back in January my sheets will be clean :) I did some studying and dropped off some stuff at the school and sold one textbook, and then when I came back Kris came over and we played two games of settlers of Catan. One was seafarers and I started off strong, but was then targeted and Kris won. The next game was normal and Liz won, and I came in a very close second, which I was okay with because Liz rarely wins and I was so close. After settlers the girls go dressed up and we went down to have dinner at Hummus brothers and it was soso and then we missed the bus up and had to wait an hour so we went to Starbucks to kill time. i had Eggnog Chai and it was delicious :) Once back in res I finished my geo of Canada notes, and made some plans with Danny for when I am home for Christmas, we are going for Sushi on the 23rd :) I'm excited My plan now is PJs and then bed Yay 2 more sleeps and 2 exams till home :D Night!

Girl's Night!

Lets sum this up quick Liz flew in the morning to write an exam that she had tomorrow and will be spending a few days with Katie and I I spent my morning studying for the exam that have Friday, and then Liz arrived and we hung out and such, and waited for Katie to get back from writing her exam, and once she was done Kris came over and we played settlers of America, and it was okay, it's very different and as per usual Kris won, and the rest of us were upset by it We then played a game of normal settlers and I was looking strong, but Kris won :( and then he took Katie and Liz to McDonalds, and I stayed back to watch the on-call phone because Katie is on Call Once the girls came back we moved the mattresses into the livingroom, and got comfortable to watch magic mike, and it was a soso movie, there were some nice asses and abs, but it was not an amazing plot, Katie wanted full frontal nudity, but there was none, just lots of bums, which I was perfectly fine with, Now was are all kind of doing our own thing, Liz is skyping with Jeremy and Katie is texting Kris, Soon it will be bed time, Li has an exam in morning and I have things to do, and I dont have all that much to say 3 sleeps and 2 exams until home Night!

Actually left the house

This morning my alarm went off at 8, and I did not want to get out of bed, but them I remembered that I had a meeting and had to get out of bed to check my agenda to see when it was, and it was at 10, so I crawled back into my warm bed for a bit. At 10, I had a meeting with Jenn and Rob to discuss the Educational RA position, and what goes well, and what hasnt gone well and such. It was a nice casual chat and I hope it was beneficial. After my meeting I had breakfast and the Elaine informed me that not only did I get the highest mark on the Final in Wildlife Ecology, I also got the only A+ overall, which is awesome, I went down to the school to meet up with Elaine so we could celebrate good Wildlife Ecology grades, we hung out and got a poutine and then she came up to res for a bit and we studied and Elaine drew me some beautiful pictures :) After that I had some leftover pizza for dinner at at 6:30 I had my "Are you Smarter than a 5th Grader" Event and no one came, well I asked Jenina to come to keep me company so she came, but that was it. We had some snacks, did some trivia, Jenina got a prize and we waited 30minutes and no one else showed up :( Oh well, it was bad timing. After the event, I ate some chips and cookies and was a bit saddened by my failed event, but of well, I wasnt really productive in the evening, I informed my dad of my top wildlife ecology grades, and there is a possibility that I might get straight A's this semester which would be wicked. I should be off to bed soon as I am still not 100% well and I need my rest and I am not being productive, so I might as well get some sleep 4 sleeps and 2 finals until home! Also Liz visits tomorrow :) and will be staying with us until Thursday :) Night!

5 more sleeps, I got this

Today was another do nothing day, and they are starting to really bore me. I will not allow tomorrow to be a do nothing day, especially since doing nothing doesn't appear to be making me better in any way shape or form, so I really could have been more productive. This morning I was a bit productive and I wrote up my research summary that I need to submit because of the research award I received, so that was something I needed to do as I have to submit it before I go home on Friday. The rest of my day was spent watching movies, and feeling like crap. I watched love actually, which very well might be my favourite holiday movie :) and then a few other christmas movies. I showered, got kind of dressed and laid about. At about 5 I started preparing the food for the RLT staff Potluck that was today at 6, and the potluck was awesome, great food and good company, but I ate too much again. I think my plan now is bed, then up early, shower early and actually get out of teh building and breath some fresh air tomorrow. I might even go into the lab and do some nests and hopefully start studying for my last two finals. I guess I'll go get ready for bed, but first some buckleys, yum Also, my entire have been so lame since I have been doing nothing, I really need to do something about that Night!

Such a lazy day

I had one call last night after I had gone to bed but it wasn't a big deal, just some guys gimping about a little too heavily.

Today I didn't really do much

I watched movies, took a shower
Wished my dad a happy birthday
Called my mom and talked to her for a bit


Katie and I had a taco night in our room so we did some prep for that and Moved all my things out of the livingroom and into my room so now my room is a disaster

I ate too many tacos and with the left over cheese I decided to make cheese biscuits and then thought it was a good idea to eat two
I'm too full, I feel gross and like I shouldn't eat for the rest of the weekend because I ate so much today, but sadly that is not how things work

Soon I will be off to bed as I'm sleep and would like to have a productive day tomorrow, boys re what I'll do but hopefully more than I did today

Night!

2/4 finals are done :)

This morning at 9, I wrote my pop and com final, I was done at about 1030, but didnt hand it in until 11 because I didnt want to hand it in first and to be honest I think I did okay, it was not as bad as I thought it was going to be, and when I handed in my final I also got back my population model and I didnt do as well as I would have like but I did okay and i think I will pull off an A- in the course which would be cool After my exam I didnt really know what to do, I'm still sick, and have decided that this weekend my main focus will be getting healthy and getting lots of rest so I will be doing that all weekend At 1:30 I went shopping with Jenn and Katie Sven from the housing office to get some snacks and prizes for my final December event, which is Are you Smarter than a 5th grader which I will be doing on Monday Shopping was fun, I tried to find neocitron but it could not be found so I go some buckleys, which I am hoping will help with the getting better goal. Once back in res Katie and I ordered pizza for dinner, and I talked with my mom for a bit and decided to have some me time so I painted my nails and such, I also talked with my brother for a bit. I'm also on Call and so far it has been quiet, I just have to do my 11 rounds which I am hoping will be quiet and then BED! YAY! Anyways I can do rounds now so I'm going to get them done with and then hopefully hit the hay soon Night!

Sick of studying, i mean sick and studying

Another day sick
Another day spent trying to study

I tried to study pop and com and lasted a few hours and then starting feeling very shitty, upon standing my head would pound and I would get dizzy and have to sit down

I was on the couch for a bit, hoping to feel better


Eventually Elaine came to go over stuff which was nice, I know more than I thought I did which is a bit reassuring


After Elaine left I did a bit more studying and took a shower, I'll be off to bed soon to rest up for my exam in the morning

Night!

Guess What? I'm still sick!

This morning I managed to sleep until about 8, and stayed in bed until 9, then I ate breakfast and took a nice hot shower which was amazing and made me feel better. I had planned on meeting Elaine at the school to study for wildlife ecology and we actually spent a decent amount of time studying, took a break for lunch but not really as we quizzed each other when eating. I actually studied in the library too, which I really dont like, It's too quite and you can feel the stress coming from other people, its just not my thing, and tomorrow Elaine wants to spend all day studying pop and com in the library but I dont know if I can do that, but we will see After studying at the library we moved up to res so we could talk without feeling like we were disturbing everyone else and we worked through the info again and had dinner and relaxed a little bit with some 5th grade science trivia, and then went down to write our Wildlife Ecology final at 530. The final took me just over and hour and it went ok, not horrible, not great just ok. Writing it was rather unpleasant as my head started to get heavy and achy and my neck started hurting, it was unpleasant so I was glad that it was a quick one to write. I think in the end I'll end up with a A- maybe an A, hopefully and A, but only time will tell. After the exam it was back to res and I had tater tots and ice cream as a celebration of me being done, and now my tummy hurts a bit :( Silly Me I'm still sick, my temperature regulation is off, my nose has problems, I cough, my throat hurts, my head hurts, It's just all around unpleasant and now I have one day to study for my pop and com final :( I hope I can pull it off. I think it's time for bed, I hope that the more rest I get the higher the chance I will get well quicker. 9 sleeps, 3 finals, one on call shift and one RA event until home! Night!

Still sick :(

Had my panama meeting this morning at 8 :(
I was tire and feeling like poop

After the meeting I wanted to go back to bed, but I studied

And the rest of my day was staying, resting, drinking 3 liters of tea and cup of garlic ginger lemon and by water which I can still taste

I also just watched the Victoria secret fashion show which was pretty, I was pretty underwear now haha

But it's late and I have my first final tomorrow and I need my rest so off to bed I go

Here's hoping I get better and do well on my final tomorrow


Night!

Last day of class

I'm still sick, I was in bed for 12 hours, got up
Did some studying, did my passive program for December

Went to my one class that hadn't been cancelled
Pop and com

After class drank a whole ton of yea and studied, still not feeling great

RA meeting was fun, we exchanged secret snowflake gifts and I got 3 new kinda of tea :)
So excited to try them out tomorrow :)

Now time for more rest


Night!

Sick :(

My day was spent being sick

I went to the RLT breakfast this morning which was yummy

I was feeling very shitty today, feverish congested sore throat etc

I spent most of the day rest in the couch, I tried to break my fever by sweating it out and then I tried a cold bath, in the end I still don't feel awesome

I also finally got my movie back from AJ and I didn't get an explanation as to why he changed, but I won't stress and I probably won't hear from him again, but life goes on

I'm now watching ice age 4 with Katie and kris and then I will go to bed and hope to feel better in the morning so I can study


Night!

The laziest and least constructive day in a very long time

I was awake at 7, but didnt get out of bed until just after 9, once awake I had tea and some banana bread for breakfast, and then i started to type my wildlife eco notes, Finished typing, printed those notes and two lectures worth of pop and com I filled in the graphs on my wildlife eco notes and past that i did not do much else, I watched The frog princess and read over some notes, To be honest most of my day was just spent watching movie and phineas and ferb, I thought about doing other things but I just wasnt feeling it, I'm not feeling like doing much of anything, I showered today, that was an accomplishment. I just wasnt feeling it today, I havent actually been feeling it latley, I don't realy want to do much of anything and I think I'm getting sick again :( Another thing I did today was text AJ again about returning my movie, it's only been about a month, and he's been avoiding getting it back to me, apparently he will deliver it tomorrow, but i'm not going to get my hopes up, I've done that one or two too many times, I just dont care anymore, I just want my movie back. I guess part of me wants to know how he went from a nice sweet boy who seemed interested in me, to a rather jerkish guy who bails last minute, and people say girls are the confusing ones I think I will probably just go to bed, I dont feel well, I'm not doing anything and if I stay up I'll just eat and become more of a blob than I already am :( I cant wait for this semester to be done and over, I really need a break from school and life and PG Night!

So tired

I have been tired all day I slept poorly and was up at 7 to get ready for my lab exam, and I was so out of it that I forgot my pencil case and my calculator, luckily I was able to borrow some pens and a calculator and the exam went soso, and i cant be upset because I really didnt put in a study effort After I finished writing I went to go hand in my last pop and com assignment which was a nice feeling, once back in res I ate and began to organize the disaster that was our livingroom, not only did we get food, we also got a table, microwave, fan, humidifier etc etc so we had stuff everywhere but I was able to tidy up a bit before the tired hit me Liz and Jeremy spent the afternoon with us until they had to go catch their bus/flight, it was nice, they napped, I laid about and did nothing, I'm basically a blob :( I made chicken burgers for dinner and grilled them on my new george foreman grill from Liz and Jeremy, haha and they were delicious and cooked fast Now I'm just tired but not as sleep as I was before, I wish I had been more productive, but I do have time to get things done this weekend, I keep thinking it's saturday, but I have two full weekend days left so I should be fine, I'll go to bed soon and hopefully sleep better than I did last night Night!

Its late

It's late, I need to sleep as I have a quiz tomorrow morning

Today was the last evening with Liz and Jeremy

More tomorrow

Night!

Okay time to elaborate on this entry and then write a new entry I had my last PLant Ecology class and writing the professor evaluation felt like christmas, I could finally express my feelings about Juan Carlos and his lack of teaching abilities and I managed to keep myself composed and it didnt turn into and angry childish rant, I was proud Our final paper was always handed in, but to be honest the work load was really not even, which is part of the reason why I don't like group papers, Elaine did the most work, I fell somewhere in the middle and there was of course the member who did little, but he was aware that he did not do much. After classes, I did not do very much, I tried to study for my wildlife ecology quiz, but it was not going well and then eventually Katie, Kris and I went down to see Liz Jeremy and Katniss, we all hung out and ended up going out for all you can eat sushi and it was so delicious and fun to share with everyone, the chef even gave us a special thing not available on the weekday dinner menu, I think it was Tuna Takanaki or something along those lines, I was so full especially since I had already had dinner, I think I'm getting fat :( After binging on sushi we went back to Liz and Jeremy's and played a game of settler of catan cities and knights and it was a long game and I was tired and had my wildlife eco lab exam at 8 am and had done minimal studying We got to take all of Liz and Jeremy's frozen food since they were leaving and by the time we got back to res and unloaded all the frozen things it was after midnight, and sleep was something that was not coming to me And to keep the tradition Night!

Not in the mood for a long entry

Today was my last geography of Canada class

I handed in my Canada journal
Paid my course deposit for the panama field school

Handed in my population model

Finished my pop and com assignment

Had my RA review and it went well which was nice

Worked on my plant Eco paper which is due tomorrow and I emailed it off to my group and hopefully it all goes well

I went to a string lantern making thing which was fun, I'll try and show a picture of my lantern once is dry :)

I also made banana bread! And it is delicious :)

I'll be off to bed soon

Night!

17 days....

I am making it through, even though this morning I awoke and thought my health was relapsing. I was not feeling well this morning, I didnt even eat breakfast :( I went to my pop and com tutorial is hopes that it would help me with the assignment and it didnt help me with the parts of the questions I didnt understand, but I was reassured of how I did other questions which I guess is good. Wildlife ecology was good, we now only have one lecture and the lab test and the final, in 8 days everything about that class will be done and over, crazy. After wildlife I needed to eat something so I went to the corner store and bought hummus and pita, which was a bad idea, it was horrible, it made me feel worse than I was already feeling :( I didnt pay any attention in plant eco, I was there to do the participation things and that was it, the information was useless that we were learning , I had sent Juan Carlos a few emails with questions about the final paper and he asked me to come speak with him after class, but I told him that I was unavailable because I wanted him to reply in text so we have something to refer back to if he tries to claim we did things wrong when we do them the way we are told to do so, and he did reply, though some of the answers are still very unclear, but I guess it is better than nothing After plant eco, I went to the housing office to get a petty cash form from Jenn, and while I was there I picked up some other things and killed time, I didnt want to get to work yet After killing time I went to my room and began being productive, I had lunch, worked on my pop and com assignment and I think I finished it, or at least I have answers to all the questions. I also worked a bit on the plant Eco paper and sent it out to everyone along with Juan Carlos' answers to my questions, then I had to lye down for a bit, my head and neck were starting to bother me, I wish I didnt store stress in my neck, it would make things easier I rested for a bit and ate ice cream, and then eventually I went back to being productive and read over my population model, decided I was finished with it so I printed it off and I will hand it in tomorrow, and I can also hand in my Canada Journal Tomorrow, another thing I can check off, then I only have the plant Eco paper and my wildlife eco lab quiz and my pop and com assignment but that will all be over by friday at 1pm and then the studying can begin, and I should probably do some work in the lab and I have to work out my write up for the research award I got and I'm hoping that wont take long I also still need to do my final RA event of the semester and I think I will do it December 9th, and it will an are you smarter than a 5th grader stress buster with snacks. Tonight was a goodbye to Liz thing at the moose, it was nice, it was Katie, Kris, Liz, Jeremy, Adam and I for the most part, Adam came a bit later but stayed till we left and Lindsey was there for a bit, as was Kallie, and the Fabris and Ryan Peel stopped in to say hi. It was nice, I had moose fries and a long island ice tea that was delicious and I was able to pay Adam back for taking me to get my stuff from Nicole's by buying him dinner, and it ended up working out well because I think the waitress forgot to charge him for his beer, so it was pretty cheap, :) After the moose Katie, Liz, Kris, Jeremy and I went back to our room and we listened to the pitch perfect sound track, and Kris really enjoys singing party in the USA, and as I am writing this he may have bust out singing in the kitchen, there may have been dance moves and I may have almost cried due to laughter. It was funny Liz and Jeremy left and Kris and Katie got all couplely, Kris hit his eye with a pillow and Katie had to kiss it better, I almost had to throw up, and I told them so when Kris was leaving and Katie said he was forgetting something....her.... oh yea that happened. Anyways I should be off to bed and I hope I dont wake up feeling like I did this morning, that would kind of suck. 17 sleeps till home Night!

One week of classes left

This morning I met with Chris to talk about my population model and I don't know of it reassured me in anyway, but there isnt much I can do now

My geo of Canada class felt never ending
And it was followed by my last social geography class and I handed in the final paper, I was done with it and I needed it out of my hands

Pop and com was okay, rather typical, only 2 more pop and com classes left, scary thought

After class i went to res, picked up the on call phone and then I made lunch and started working on my pop and com assignment, but I didn't quite finish, I'm hoping after the tutorial tomorrow I will be able to finish.

I also worked on my population model and then moved on to plant Eco, yuck, Hayden sent me the methods and then Elaine sent the discussion and I was waiting for Kurt, he sent his stuff late, I'm about to take a look at it now and see if it's worth incorporating yet.

The RA meeting was short, only 30 minutes and now I have wait till 11 to do rounds and then I can go to bed, yay bed

It better be quiet

Night!

2 major assignments done!

Today was a decently productive day, I got up at about 930 after an okay nights sleep and started working on homework, finishing up my social geography paper, I had breakfast and tea and continued to work,

I tried to work on my population model, but I was jut not feeling the pop and com today, I tried the assignment too and did not get far, that will be a task for tomorrow :(

I also tried to work on my plant Eco paper, taking notes as such from papers but I was not as productive as I should have been

At 5 ish Katie as is started cooking for the potluck we were having at 6, and about 6 residents came out and they brought food and it was a nice hang out sesh with fellow first floorers

The kris, Liz and Jeremy came over and we played settlers and I won :) yay me!

I will arrange my stuff for my classes and I also have a meeting at 840 with my pop and com prof to talk about my population model and I may ask some questions about the assignment as well.

Should probably be off to bed soon.

Oh on another note, AJ was supposed to meet up with me today so he could give me back my movie, but he said he would text me when he was available and no surprise he never texted, I'm worried I will not get my movie back :( and at this point that's really all I want

Night!

Not as productive as I could have been

This morning I let myself sleep in, I need the rest, still trying to get healthy.

Once awake I worked on my population model and the was lazy and lounge about, around noon I took a shower and then Adam sent me a text saying that we could go get my stuff from Nicole's

It was such a relief to get it back, it's one less thing I have to worry about now, once back it was my time to drive the leaf for the last time


I bought groceries, Hopefully enough groceries to last me till I go home, I may need to get milk, but that should be it.

After groceries it was homework time, worked on my gay space paper and finished a rough draft, I also made minestrone soup and some breschetta

Once done the rough draft of my paper I decided to do laundry and tidy up a bit,

Soon I'll be off to bed, I need more rest, still trying to get healthy


Night!

21 days till home, fast fprward please

Hmm where to begin my day, I guess beginning at the beginning would make the most sense. I was up at 7, for my lab at 8, drank tea, ate toast, pretty average friday morning. My Wildlife lab went well, we did our last assignment in the computer lab, and it took about 2 hours because the computer program was picky, very picky, you couldnt go back or use the mouse or anything like that, but it was done and now it is one less thing that I have to do this semester, I am now down to 1 pop and com assignment 1 population model 1 term paper 1 Journal 1 competition paper 1 lab quiz and 4 finals I got this.... I hope, I've done it in 6 other semesters, so why should this one be any different. I hung out with Elaine after the lab, until she had class at 11:30, then it was back up to res and I worked on my population model and I texted AJ to see if we still had plans tomorrow night and to see if I could ask him a favour, and I was not surprised to hear that something had come up and that he had to cancel, I'm reaching the point where I dont really care all that much anymore, I just want my movie back. I don't know what his deal is, and sadly I dont think I'll ever find out. Frustrating to think that guys always think and expect that girls will be complicated and confusing, and I will admit that I am not without complications, but I dont think I am that bad, and you never expect the guy to be confusing and complicated. I really dont understand how I could have miss read him so wrong, I thought and other thought from what I told them that he was interested and it was reciprocated and then it's just gone, with no reason or explanation, I guess I will just never understand guys. Oh well I can understand my cat, and my future cats Crazy cat lady here I come. I texted Elaine and told her that he had already bailed and we had made plans to go for sushi or pho if he bailed and since he bailed early we went out for all you can eat sushi and I ate lots and we accidentally ordered the wrong thing, but I took one for the team and wrapped it up stealthily in a napkin and placed it in my purse to be disposed of....my purse now smells like sushi..... and not even good sushi, but we avoided being charged for something we didnt want in the first place. After sushi, I went to starbucks and got myself an eggnog chai latte Then we went to Elaines so I could stay warm until catching the bus The Elaine roomie becka invited us to go to the mall as it is Black Friday... well kind of I bought 8$ pants, good deal when I got dropped off everyone was crowding outside, the fire alarm had gone off, apparently s afire extinguisher had exploded, eventually we were allowed back into the building My plan is bed soonish and no alarm tomorrow We will see how that goes A lonely night for me as Katie was on Call Night!

Learned to play settlers if catan cities as knights

Today was actually a productive day all in all

I had wildlife ecology and that went well, it was followed by my plant ecology midterm, which was okay I guess, some of the questions were way too specific, we also got our results back and didn't do very well which is frustrating because we did exactly what he asked, I hate that cLass, after class we talked about who was going to do what in the final paper and then we went our separate ways

I went back to res, had lunch and then worked on my population model for a substantial amount of time, the majority of it is now done and I am hopefully going to talk to my prof about it tomorrow to get his input and such so I make sure that I was on the right track when doing in.
When I had worked on my population model for long enough I decided to type up some of my wildlife ecology notes and it is productive and easy to accomplish.


At about 6ish kris came over and then a bit later Liz and Jeremy came over and we played a game of settlers of catan cities as knights. Liz, jeremy and I had never played so we got it explained and there is a lot more to think about and keep track of in this version of catan

Kris ended up winning, but it was a close game for Katie, kris and Jeremy, Liz and I were just doing our own thing, though by the end I ha gotten close by screwing over some people, while keeping promises to trade with other people even though trading was no longer necessary.

It was about a 3 hour game

And now everyone had left as its just me and my legs are all messes up from sitting on the floor playing the game, I should be off to bed soon though, I have my lab at 8 tomorrow and I'm still not 100% so I need my rest

Night!

No more house sitting for me

I'm still sick and still trying to rest as much as possible while still getting things done

My class today were okay, nothing special.

After class Elaine and I reviewed plant ecology and we have not covered much since the last midterm so it will be interesting to see what we will be tested on.

After that it was up to res to try and be productive
Kris was over playing black ops, as Katie was working on an assignment, I was bouncing between things.

I studied, worked on my gay space paper and also worked out the flight situation for Panama. And I booked my flight, I leave for Panama of April 22, excited and nervous

I also printed off my Canada journal, I have decided that I am done with it and that printing it would make me feel better about how much I have to do.

I watched some movies, worked on my paper and studied a bit but now I am done and tired.

I also found out that the car won't be a quick fix, it's the clutch lace, whatever than means and so now I won't be house sitting anymore, but now I have to figure out how I can get out there to get the rest of my stuff, hopefully I can figure something out.

Now the plan is rest, and then bed


Night!

Kris' Birthday!

So this morning I was feeling a bit better but not awesome, I tried to eatba pier of toast and drank some tea and took some tea to class

My classes were okay.
Pop and com tutorial was good

Wildlife ecology was also good

And as usual plant ecology made me want to kill myself, can't wait for that class to be over, it will not be missed, after class I did not go to groove :(
Instead I went home to bed and was in bed for about 4 hours then I had to get up to make Mac and cheese for kris' birthday surprise potluck that was happening. It turned out well, extra cheesey

People started showing up at about 5:15ish
Elsa came and the Katie got out of class
Then Liz and Jeremy showed up
Then Kyla (kris' sister) and her boyfriend zack showed up and then jessy ( kris'sister)

Kris had no idea what was going on and sadly he had been having a rather shitty birthday, but that all change once he got up to res, we surprised him, he had no idea and we had so much food

We ate till we could eat no more, then Kris opened his presents and the we moved on dessert, cookies ad cream cake and apple crumble, yum.

I did mg best to not be sick, but when everyone decided I go to a movie tonight, I declined so I could rest, I need to get over this sickness before it gets bad

We did play a quick round of settlers before they all left and the birthday boy won

I heard nothing from Nicole or her sister today though, maybe I'll hear something tomorrow, I hope the puppies are doing ok, and the kitties. At least they will
Keep each other company and keep each other warm

Time for me to rest up and hopefully be feeling 100% in the morning


Night!

Just not my day

Where to begin, I guess my day started just after midnight, where it was so hot that I woke up and could not get back to sleep, and the dogs wanted out, and then at 7, the dogs wanted out so I had to get out of bed again, and let them out, wait till they came back, and I decided to get the fire going, and to feed the dogs and then I wanted to go back to bed for a bit, but the dogs didnt want that to happen, they were making noise and being butt heads so that did not happen When I got up Luna had removed her bandage again, its getting so frustrating :( I dont know what to do anymore, I'm running out of materials to fix it with. I eventually left for class and got to the university shortly after 930, so I was early, I had to buy breakfast since my bread had gone moldy :( My classes were ok, nothing special. After class Katie and I went to Shoppers Wholesale Foods to pick up some things, and then I dropped her off at res and on my way out to Nicoles I decided to stop in at Value Village because it was their 50% off sale today I found one shirt I like, one I may like and a belt to go with the shirt I may like, I may need to play around with it a bit first. After making my purchases I went outside and it was starting to snow, I got in the care started it and it made a horrible grinding sound, so I turned it off to make sure it was in gear and that the clutch was all the way in ect. and it was so I went to start it again and it wouldnt start, it just made a horrible noise again.....awesome. I tried putting it in neutral, it started but made a horrible noise, and once I had put it in neutral I couldnt put it back into first, it would not go :( At this point I knew I would not be driving this evening, it was about 430 at the time. I called Nicoles Sister Andrea, told her what was up and then I called BCAA to get towed, and waited in the cold for about an hour :( The guys showed up and thought he just had to jump the car, I told him that it was not the case and that I thought something was up with the transmission. he was nice, he hooked up the car, and I called Andrea back to get the address of the mechanic and we arranged for her to pick me up at the mechanic, After sometime in the cold the car was all hooked in and we could go, the truck was a 10 speed. which is crazy, I can barely handle 5 gears let alone 10. We got to the mechanic and Nicoles sister was already there, we dropped off the car I thanked the tow truck driver, and told the mechanic what had happened and they are going to look at it. Andrea and her kids and I went out to Nicoles place to check on the dogs and the kitties and the snow had been getting worse, it was like a blizzard so getting out to Nicoles took some time. the dogs were happy for the company, we fed them and the kitties, and got the fire going and then I packed up a lot of my stuff and we went back to res and Katie helped me bring my stuff in Once I was inside, I realized how sick I was feeling, it started off with my throat so I made soup and tea, and then my muscles got sore, and then my head started aching, my body started feeling heavy and then I got chills, this is just not my day. I called my dad and my mom and caught them up on what was going on. Now I really want to go to bed, but I have my RA meeting and I feel like hell and i have class at 830 and Im so stressed out now because of the day I had, I just need some time off to relax and get things together and just breath, ugh I hope the meeting goes wuick so I can be off to bed soon NIght!

26 Days till home

This morning I was woken up by my mom pocket dialing me twice at 7am, luckily I was planning on getting up at 7:30 so I could go and check on the dogs and spend some time with them. I got to the house shortly after 8, and sadly Kenny had had an accident, but I guess thats too be expected it was a long time with no time outside, I let the dogs out to let off some steam, and I brought in a bunch of wood, got the fire going and then I settled in, had some tea, watched movies, spent time with the dogs and such. A sad thing happened today I put the kettle on to make tea and then I got distracted and forgot about the kettle and it doesnt whistle and I ended up leaving it on the stove for a very long time, all the water evaporated and the kettle became a bit discoloured, I felt so bad. Luna also keeps getting her bandage off which is very frustrating. I spent a good 6 hours with them before going back to the uni. Just after 2 I was at the school in the lab and I completed my 20 nests, YAY! After the lab I went back to res and Katie and her sister Elsa were there doing homework, and I entered in all my nest data, and then I printed some stuff off that I need for this week, then it was decided that we would order pizza and the online ordering process was quite amusing, Katie was having some issues with it The pizza and cheese bread came and they were delicious!,I ate way too much Shortly after 7 I decided it was time to leave and I gave Elsa a ride home since the buses had stopped running and it was on my way out to Nicole's The dogs were happy to see me! Luna had got her bandage off again I got the fire going again, bandaged Lunas foot, fed the dogs then I settled in to watch dinner for shmucks and to knit. I also called my dad and we chatted for a little bit Soon I will be off to bed, I'm tired from staying up late last night because I was on call and having to get up early this morning for the puppies Im so tired that I actually forgot what I was going to write, so I guess it wasn't important, oh wait, I was going to say that i did not get as much homework done this weekend as I would have liked but thats okay, I will get 'er done 26 sleeps until home! about a week and a half left of house sitting I can't wait! Night!

First Saturday Night On Call

SO today I'm on call, which means I have to be on res I came up from the house at about 9, but didn't actually get the on call phone until 1:30 as Lee slept in and that is cool with me. I worked on my gay space paper for a bit while watching netflix, but after a while I got distracted by some yarn I have picked up from the reciprocity shelf and started knitting. I decided to make a toque, with this really cool fluffy yarn as a border and then pink yarn on the top as it went with the fluffy yarn. I got a decent way into it, and then at 4 I had to go check on the dogs and Katie was an awesome roommate and watched the phone for me. The dogs were so confused, I was there so quickly, they got dinner early and the cats were not happy that I would not let them out. I got back up to res by 5 and katie was not here,I worried that she had gotten a call while I was gone, but it turns out she had just gone down to the school to visit Kallie. She eventually brought back the phone and I made dinner, watched phineas and ferb, did more knitting, worked on my paper a bit more, printer out a bunch of stuff and eventually I actually finished my toque, and I even went as far as to make a pompom for the top of it :) It's so cute and actually fits my head! I should make toques more often, it was pretty quick to make Instead of starting another toque I decided to start a striped blanket with more yarn that I had picked up from the reciprocity shelf, but the yarn is so fine that it's going to take quite awhile to get it done. at 9:30 I went over to keyoh to meet up with Susan to do rounds, and I told her that it was my first weekend and that I was a bit nervous. We walked through keyoh and there was nothing, no music, no parties, nada. Neyoh was the same and we decided that we would probably be able to do 11pm rounds on our own, which obviously I am nervous to do, but hopefully things will still be quiet for the most part and that it will be an easy Saturday *knock wood* I figured I would get this entry done before my rounds so I can go to bed when I am done, unless of course something crazy happens and I need to add to this later, but for now that basically sums up my day, lots of knitting Oh, oh, and 27 sleeps until home! So Excited, I'm homesick since I didnt go home in September, October or November, I havent been home since the end of august, that will be almost 4 months by the time I actually get home, crazy Night!

Night!

Tonight marks one week of house sitting.

Tonight is night 7, one week down, just under two weeks to go. Today was an interest class, I was up at 1, to let the cat inside and then managed to stay in bed until 7 when the dogs wanted to go outside to pee, then I went back to bed until 8, I am really failing at the trying to sleep in thing. I had breakfast, fed the dogs, let the dogs out to pee and all that important morning stuff, and then I brought some more wood in, warmed up the car and was off to class. I only had one class today, my plant ecology lecture and lab were cancelled because of the Natural Resource Management Career Fair, Elaine and I checked out the career fair and were disappointed to find out that they were mostly looking for forestry students, which was unfortunate. Elaine and I also went to see Chris Johnson to get some stats help with our plant Eco lab, ironic since he is not the prof for that class, but Juan Carlos is not helpful so we had to ask someone, and its looking like we have a lot to do :( So much messing with stats to get our results :( I am not looking forward to it. After the meeting we took advantage of the free pizza, and then Elaine joined me in the lab and I went through one nest worth of dust, but teh scale had a low battery so I only did the one nest :(, so close, only 4 more nests worth of dust are left, Just need to figure out the battery thing with the scale. After the time in the lab, I tried to contact parking services about the ticket I received yesterday and I had little luck until I came back to the house and got an email about it and the guy is going to look into it for me and hopefully it will all be sorted out soon. I got back to the house earlier than normal, just after 3, I sent out emails, looked for jobs, worked on my social geography paper on gay space, and then eventually I put in a movie and made spring rolls for dinner, not the healthiest dinner option they were yummy though my tummy is hating me a bit right now. I watched Robots and then watched she's out of my league and realistically I will be going to bed soon, I have to be up at the Uni for my 8am lab tomorrow. I had a nice chat with my dad and with my mom this evening, separately obviously. I am excited to go home, less than a month, and I can hardly wait, I get a break from my school life which will be nice and before I know it I will be starting my last semester of my degree which is a bit scary, hoping I can handle the real world, and I will have to start looking for really work and becoming a real person, it's a scary thought. I have no idea if I'm ready, I'm very comfortable in my school world, and I am worried that I wont be able to find work which would suck, looking at jobs today made me realize that most of the jobs out there require experience, but how does one get that experience if they aren't given a chance? I'm not just waiting for Kenny to come in so that I can go to bed, and hope that I can sleep without thinking too much about my future and where I am going in life, tough questions that no one wants to answer.... Night!

One Month Unitil Home

Time is just flying, I can barely believe that a month from now I will be home, and then there is only one semester to go, Still have no idea what I will be doing once i graduate Today was a soso day, sadly I was up at 1 am because the dogs needed to pee, I got out of bed officially at 8, fed the dogs, let them out, got the fire going etc I had breakfast, brought in some more wood, and left the house at around 9 My classes were okay I did surprisingly well on my Geography of Canada Quiz, I thought I had done poorly and I ended up with 28/30, not too shabby Social geography was interesting as usual, we went on many tangents which is always fun After that I ate lunch before Pop and Com and copied over my notes Pop and com was a bit rough to get through as usual but I made it through and we got our assignments back and I did quite well, 9.75/10, yay me After class Elaine and I went to the cafe to work on our plant Ecology results, eventually hayden joined us and we worked for a few hours, we made graphs and realized we have no idea how to analyze our results and we cant ask Juan Carlos for help, as he is not helpful so we are resorting to asking other teachers :( It's so sad Once we gave up, I gave Elaine a ride home and headed back out to the boonies to make dinner and such. I cooked, worked on my social geography term paper, fed the dogs, watched movies, talked with my mom for a bit. Settling in from another lonely night, here's hoping I made it through the next two weeks. I hope tonight it isnt too hot when I go to sleep. all the hot air travels up to where the bed room is which can make it rather unpleasant to sleep up there. Night!

Should now be able to watch movies and do homework on my laptop :)

Today was the first day back to class after the long weekend and it turns out, so many people got sick over the long weekend. This morning was quite frustrating as Luna managed to get her bandage off ehr foot three time in about an hour and a bit, so frustrating I didnt have a tutorial this morning so I started at 930, and we gt our midterms back in wildlife ecology and I did not do as well as I would have liked, I got 83, not bad but almost 10% down from the mark I got on the first midterm :( After that class Elaine and I went to Plant Eco to find out that it had been cancelled, Juan Carlos was sick and then we had to kill time until groove. I went and asked some questions about the pop and com assignment and the population model, eventually Elaine and I went over to the sports center to find out that groove was cancelled because lisa was also sick, we ended up having a lame workout and walked the track, after the gym I went to the lab and went through 1 nests worth of dust, only 5 more to go Then I went back to Nicoles to check on the dogs, being in some wood, etc. And then it was back to res to wait for Katie to finish class Katie Liz and I went for all you can eat sushi and we ate way too much, I have a food baby now. I drove back out to nicoles, figured out how to use Elaines tv to watch movies while I do work on my laptop, with a little help from my brother Matt Another lonely night, I watched a movie and now I think its time for bed I'm quite tired :( Night!

The end of a long weekend... I think I could have been more productive

This morning I was up at 6, but in bed until about 8:30, once I woke up I let the dogs out and got ready slowly, got the fire going, had breakfast and such. I also chopped some wood and brought in lots of wood for the pile inside as my pile was getting a bit scarce. At about 11 I went up to the Uni and picked up Elaine on the way, we worked on our pop and com assignments and out play Eco assignments and managed to get both of them done :) Always a nice feeling for sure, after completing our assignments I had to go up to res to print some stuff off and we waid hi to Katie Elaine and I then went out for Pho, she had been sick all weekend and hadnt eaten much since Friday, and she was finally starting to get her appetite back. I order too much food, I had a shrimp roll and Pho, but I didnt finish my pho, it was too much and I was too full. After Phoe we decided to go hang out at Starbucks for a bit and work on some homework so we did and Elaine was AWESOME and bought me an Eggnog Chai, so yummy. At about 7 I realized I needed to be getting back to the dogs, so I dropped Elaine off, oh and another thing that makes Elaine Awesome is that she is lending me her TV so I can watch tv while house sitting, well not so much tv, but movies and such on the tv which will be nice :) I picked the tv up from her place when I dropped her off and then I got some gas, while getting gas my dad called and we had a nice chat bout house sitting, I also talked to my cousin Leanna for a bit, she is currently at the house back home doing a first responder course and she has a test tomorrow, but she is feeling confident about it which is awesome :) ONce back at the house I let the dogs out, brought in all my stuff including the tv and then i had to get the fire going again, once the fire was started I called my mom for a nice chat, I also fed the dogs and changed Luna's Bandage on her foot, she actually didnt maanage to get it off this time which is good. I spent my evening on the couch with the dogs watching Bride wars, Now the plan is to load up the fire and get ready for bed, I know I will be up early no matter what tomorrow and I am not being productive so I might as well sleep. Sadly I did not accomplish my goal to finish the nests by this weekend, but I only have 6 nests worth of dust to go through so I am close, hopefully by the end of this week they will all be done, that would be a nice accomplishment. Anyways, time to get ready for bed Night!

Its going to be a lonely three weeks

Today was an okay day I guess
I was up at 6,
Out of bed at 830 and I fed the dogs, let them out to pee etc and got the fire going again and then I went back to bed, I had been up late and it's impossible to sleep in here which is unfortunate.
I eventually got out of bed, Katie needed me to bring her the keys to Liz's so she could catch the bus and go to katniss. However when I was driving up the university I noticed a lack of buses, turns out they dont run today or tomorrow which is unfortunate.

I hung out with Katie and I did some homework ad we watched disney movies, I showered and made some pizza for lunch/ breakfast which was good, it was nice to spend time in res though I did not end up spending time in the lab but I still have tomorrow to get things done which is nice.

At about 6, Katie and I went to Starbucks and then we went to visit katniss and I dropped Katie off at CNC so she could hang out with Kris for the night.

Then I got out to Nicole's, got the fire going and fed the dogs and such an started making a Lasagna and called my dad to chat with him a bit and then I called my mom and I realized that Kenny had been outside for Awhile and he wasn't coming when I called him as I was starting to panic a bit he was outside over an hour not responding to my calls, I was freaking out a bit, I went outside while asking to my mom and tried to find him with no luck :(

I was freaking out and luckily entisols Kenny came home, no idea where he was or what he got into but he came back and that's all that matters, now I can relax, watch a movie and go to bed.
Should go to bed early since I'll be up early anyways

Night!

All in all a productive day :)

This morning when I woke up, I could see my breath, the fire had gone out who knows how long ago and it was chilly

I eventually got out of bed and did the morning routine, feed animals, let dogs out to pee, gave Luna antibiotics, made breakfast and eventually left for the school at about 930, I spent about an hour in the computer lab working on various things and then I spent about 3 hours in the lab, I now have 6 nests worth of dust to go through and then I am at 20! So exciting! I hope to finish up by the end of the long weekend :)

After the lab I went and hung out with Katie, had lunch and then element to res challenge and watched people showcase their talents which made me wish I had a talent. Well a magical talent I should say

After the talent fun time I ended up meeting up with Brandon and we had dinner and then watched a movie, a chill Saturday night, but I appreciated the company. I'm lonely out here.

Now it's late so I should be going to bed soon, and maybe I'll try to sleep in a bit. We will wait and see


Night!

yay Friday

So today was my first day having to commute to get to the University in a standard car, and I have yet to fall in love with driving standard. I woke up a bit too early and did not have a good nights sleep, it was too hot and the kitty was annoying me, but hopefully tonight will be better. I was at the school shortly after 730, it took me about 20 minutes to drive up, I stalled once :( My lab this morning was quick, so I had to kill time until my seminar at 12:30, the seminar also went well, and after that I went to the lab and did a nest, then I went and got Katie and we went to starbucks and save on, We also had to go check on katniss because Liz and jermey went to Vancouver for the long weekend and then she came out with me to meet the puppies and once there I chopped some kindling, and got the fire going again. Then Katie and I went back to res, I had to drop her off. I ended up eating dinner there and hung out until about 6:30 and then it wad back to the house and I didnt do much after that. Ive been sleepy and lazy, but I did feed the dogs, gave Luna her antibiotics, changed the bandage on Lunas foot, cleaned the litter boxes, and since then I have had a cup of tea and I am currently sitting on the couch with Kenny (puppy) and Johnny (kitty) It's quite nice I will be off to bed soon, I'm sleepy NighT

First Night House Sitting

This morning I was up at 8 so I could shower before going to class to write my wildlife ecology midterm. At 9:30 I wrote my midterm and it did not go super amazingly, but it is now done and I will know how I did on Tuesday, until then there is nothing I can do. Plant Ecology was horrible as per usual, and the lab was even worse, we were given an assignment that told us to basically hadn it whatever we felt like :S, it was silly, I dont understand. After class I had to go pack up as I was getting picked up by Nicole at 4:30 to head to her place to begin my house sitting journey. I packed and she picked me up at about 4:30, she drove as she had so some errands,once at her place I was given the final run down on things that need to be done such as bandaging Luna's foot and giving her antibiotics, he cut that she got this weekend got infected, poor Luna has to wear a cone and can't frolic outside I dropped nicole off the air port and successfully drove back on my own, and made dinner, called my dad, worked on some homework, watched an episode of weeds and now I plan on going to bed as I have an 8 am lab tomorrow and now I have to commute to the school so I will have to be earlier than normally :( It will be an interesting nights sleep I think, I hope the fire doesn't go out, I dont want to freeze in the morning. Night!

For some reason my blog wont load pn my computer :(

I was planning on writing a good entry on my computer, but my blog has decided not to load so I will do this on my phone in a quicker fashion.

This morning Kurt, Elaine and I went to do the dry weights of the plants from our failed experiment that we still have to some how write a paper about.

Then I had my geo of Canada quiz which sadly did not go well, but I'll survive.

Social geo was good, spent the majority of the class talking about the election from yesterday, Obama won, in case you were not aware. We also talked about the legalization of marijuana in Colorado and Washington and the legalization of gay marriage is some other states which is good

Pop and com was hard to get through, I was tired and was having trouble saying awake.

After that I had to sit in the mailroom do help with res life surveys and i studied and knitted


After that Elaine came over to study,
I did laundry
Made dinner
And then I went to the res council AGM which took awhile


Now the plan is bed so I can et up with enough time to shower in the morning and prep more to my midterm


Night!

Not feeling the motivation

I was up early this morning, way before my alarm, which keeps happening, and it is becoming frustrating. I rolled out of bed at around 7:30, just before my alarm went off I had my pop and com tutorial at 8:30 and it made me fear doing the assignment that is due a week from tomorrow. Wilidlife ecology was interesting, Kathy talked about a research project that she was a part of 20 years ago, it involved studying black tail deer up in Alaska for 58 months Plant Ecology was stupid, I dont even know what happened in the class, Juan Carlos just went on and on about nothing that seemed important, after class Elaine and I got our Critique back and we managed to do well, we got 25.5/28 The we went to groove, which was fun, it had a nice array of songs, which were new for the most part After groove I bought salsa at the farmers market and then went up to res for lunch I picked up the on call phone and then I was informed that Annie was sick and could not do the self care presentation that was supposed to happen tonight at my event, so my event turned into just a finger painting event. Up until my event I tried to study for Geography of Canada Quiz, and then at 5, it was time for finger painting. Katie cam with me and we ended up knitting for the first bit and eventually a resident showed up and finger painting began, it was fun, 3 residents came in total which is better than none, It was fun, we have lots of pictures now. After the event I had dinner, Katie left to go to the movies and my productivity went down hill, I called my dad, sent out some emails, and killed time, I'm on call and have to stay up till 11 to do rounds, soon I can do my rounds and then go to bed. I hope I do okay on my quiz tomorrow, I just dont really care that much about it, it's a problem Night!

Monday, not much to report

All in all not a special day

Classes were pretty normal, average, mundane

Sadly I lost my 100% in social geography, but that's okay I am still doing well

To be honest I don't feel like writing much, I'm tired, stressed and don't feel awesome so I think I'll just go to bed

Nothing interesting to report
Night!

Extra hour of sleep

Aj and I slept in, and he made me breakfast which was nice and then we hung out for a bit and watched you tube videos until he brought me back up to res I cleaned up my room a bit and at 2 Katie and I went adventuring, to walmart and then to the mall, I spent too much money, got groceries and a pair of black boots, and I also got a winter coat, it's a boys winter coat, but it was a good price :) and it's actually like two coats in one :) After the mall Katie and I went back to res, I completed my pop and com assignment, compared with Elaine I had grilled cheese for dinner and after that I did not do much, I'm stressed and a bit confused about life...I'm hoping a good nights sleep will help. this is a super short entry, but I don't really have much to say. Oh I started knitting again because Katie was knitting, I made a headband. Umm not much else to report Night!

Saturday

H

A not so thrilling friday

Today's 8 am wildlife ecology lab was pretty shitty, we were looking at wolf and beaver scat.... Haha it was quite a long lab

My seminar today was good, one of my classmates had her son with her and e say quietly fit the entire seminar, but had the last word at the end of the seminar and it was so cute.

After class It was up to res and I was quit productive, I printed off my wildlife Eco notes for the midterm next week, and I filled in all the graphs and such.


Then I spent some time working on pop and com, the assignment and my population model, I was actually quite productive.

I also worked a bit on my social geography term paper, and then made a quick dinner

At about 6, I went down to the LAN to do nests, I now have almost 12 done, so 8 more to go
I was in the lab for just over two hours, on my walk back I called my daddy and chatted for a bit, informed him that I had booked a flight home :)

I think I'm going to goto bed now, I want to be up early to do more nests! And I get another standard driving lesson tomorrow.


Night!

A thrilling Friday...

Flights home booked, bank account hurt :(

Hmm what did I do today

I booked my flight home today, I leave on December 14 and return January 6, so I get a decent amount of time at home which should be nice, I'll get to relax as just take a break from life.

My wildlife ecology class as good and then after that it was time to harvest my plant ecology experiment and it was so pointless, our experiment failed basically. There wasn't enough germination and we didn't have time to work on our experiment before harvesting and the root mass was so big that there was no way to separate out the roots, so we took shoot heights and we will be taking dry shoot weights, but that won't really tell us anything about our experiment and we told Juan Carlos this and he doesn't care. It's just so frustrating :(

I was so angry after that.

Also today my body has been so sore, my legs are dying. It hurts to stand up and sit down, and not go up and down stairs and basically just to move in general.
I hope to not be in pain tomorrow as I should be going to crank n core and if I am in the pain I'm
I'm now i don't think I'll be able to do it.

After class I had lunch, and worked on my pop and com assignment which was difficult and I struggled and did not finish it, but it's not due till Monday so I still have time

At 6, I helped interview people for the role of director of external affairs for res council, we had two interviews and a decision was reached quickly.

Liz, Katie and I hung out for a bit but then Katie left to go study an Liz and I went to Starbucks and they were supposed to have eggnog but they don't have it till tomorrow so I was sad, I really wanted eggnog chai, I had to settle for a green tea latte, which was not as good

Since getting back I have just been sitting around and hoping the my body will stop all the hurting, of not tomorrow will be another rough day.

Night!

Happy Halloween!!!

Today is Halloween, though it looks and feels more like Christmas, or some time in December, I woke up and it was -11 and there is so much snow on the ground I don't even know what to do with myself. I had a meeting at 8:30 to discuss the interviews that will be happening for the director of external affairs role on res council. I get to help out with the process, I am curious as to how it will go. My classes today were okay. I got back my Canada Journal and I am on the right track which is good and I am now (after some more work ) on my 21st page and I still need to elaborate on the ideas. It only needs to be a minimum of 25 pages so I am almost there, yay! Social Geography was also okay Pop and Com was alright, we are now starting to talk about community Ecology, which should be an interesting switch, we also go our midterms back and I did not do as awesome as I would have liked, I did okay, I got 81ish% which is ok. After class Elaine and I went to the gym and killed our legs and abs with exercises, My legs were like Jello afterwards. Then i quickly got to meet Nicole (the woman I will be house sitting for)'s boyfriend, and then it was up to res to try and be productive I showered, worked on my Canada Journal Had dinner and ate way too much Candy, way, way too much, and I will be going to bed soon, I'm tired and lonely as Katie is in Vanderhoof with Kris. Night!

Commence clever title generating

Hmm what did I do today

I left earlier than normal as I was planning on meeting up with Elaine at 8 so we could go over our plant Eco presentation one more time.
It went well, we decided that we were going to do somewhat of an interpretive dance in order to explain mixitrophy and mycohetertrophy.

The tutorial went well though I had issues staying awake. I had even more issues staying awake and coherent in wildlife ecology, I felt bad. I'm not even sure what we covered today.

The came time for the dreaded plant ecology presentation, Elaine and I were up first and I think that it went well, people seemed amused but our acting out if our definitions that involved candy and volunteers haha

After plant Eco Elaine and I went to the gym for groove, we got there a bit early so we decided to dance gangam style while we were waiting.
Groove was good, it was Halloween themed, we danced to the monster mash and thriller and such

After that we went to the farmers market and then went over our wildlife ecology assignment

Then we parted ways, I went to res and completed my social geography assignment and typed up my wildlife ecology notes and had a rather productive evening

I plan on going to bed earlyish as I did not sleep well last night

Night!

I kinda forgot

So forgot about my blog yesterday and remember as I was going to sleep and decided that I would write it in the morning

My day was pretty normal, went to class.
Got my proposal b k in social geography ad I hit full marks

After class I went on a but of a poster copying spree, did my are you taking care of you newsletter, my stress relief tip posters and my poster for self care night which is a week from today, so many posters

I was also on call and nothing eventful happened with that.

I worked on various homework things, Elaine came over to go over our presentation, which went well. I work on my wildlife ecology assignment, my visual geo graphs film assignment etc.

Liz, Jeremy and kris all came over and hung out, we even played settlers for a bit before Katie and I has to go to the RLT meeting

The meeting was good, would have den done by just after 10, but our team building activity made us go till just after 10:30, which is alright as I was on call and had to be up until 11 anyways

Rounds were quiet and I took the opportunity to put up posters and slide newsletters under doors, now I just have to do keyoh.

I went to bed at around 11:30 an sadly did not sleep well


And to be consistent

Night!

A rather lazy sunday

This morning I was up around 9, but didnt get out of bed until 11ish and I thought I could have stayed in bed all day, but i didnt Moved out of bed and on to the couch with a blankey and drank tea an watched rugrats, Katie awoke and was being an awesome girlfriend and started making breakfast for Kris, and I got to eat some of the waffles Eventually I went down to the school to meet with Elaine to work on our plant Ecology Assignment which took about 2 hours for us to finish and go through once, then I went back up to res and wasnt all that productive, I ended up getting picked up by AJ at around 5, he had offered to make me dinner. We went to his place and I was given the grand tour and we watched some episodes of the IT crowd, while he was making dinner, I had never seen the show before but it was actually quite funny. I also offered to help make dinner, but he did not want me help, he did it all by himself (so proud), and it actually turned out pretty good, he made salmon, and a pasta veggie things, all in all it was the best (and only) dinner a guy had ever cooked for me, I was also quite hungry, which made it better, We then hung out and watched SuperBad and talked about stuff... eventually he had to take me home because he had laundry to fold and work in the morning, and I do have class and such in the morning and sleep is generally helpful. He dropped me off, but on the drive over, he told me that next time I would be driving, he drives standard and knows that I need to practice, if/when I drive his car though I'm going to be nervous, his car is all shiny and new looking... we will see what happens. Night!

Halloween celebration!

Today I tried to wake up early and go to the lab,
Ended up going there at 10, stayed for 2.5 hours

Res challenge kind of sucked, no one from our floor cane out, it was depressing :(

After res challenge it became about getting ready
Did my own hair :)
And make up

I'm
Going to shorten this down as its late

Elaine, Liz and kris came over, we played drinking settlers, tried to learn the gangam style dance and had a fun time

Went to the 94c Halloween dance thing, sadly not worth the 30$, Liz Elaine and I wanted to leave but getting a BA would have taken awhile, lucky for Us AJ offered to pick us up

He dropped off Liz and Elaine and then we hung out, did some drifting and off roading in his civic, talked, creeped on people, eventfully I got out of the car, sadly I couldn't invite him to join as it was guest pass night and he did not have a pass

Now I need sleep

Night!

Party on friday! Just kidding.......

This morning I woke up and I wasn't feeling well
My stomach was just not feeling awesome
I couldn't even eat breakfast, I contemplated not going to my lab, but I was awake so I was going to go.

The lab was okay, we learned about forage quality, it wasn't too bad.

My seminar was cancelled, and I whet to the clinic as I was not feeling awesome, and then I had to go down to college heights to pick something up and I was very underdressed, I was so cold :(

Once back in res I spent some time on the couch not feeling awesome, eventually I started being productive, worked on my social geography visual geography assignment which is proving to be more difficult then expected.
I also worked on my wildlife ecology notes

I'm still not feeling awesome and I want to go to bed early, but res is bumping and going to sleep might be a tad difficult :(

Wish me luck!

Night!

The snow is sticking.....

The snow kind of ruined my evening plans and now im sad, I was looking forward to hanging out and eating a caramel apple, *sigh* stupid snow making the roads noy safe, snow should not be allowed in October. All in all today was not a bad day, wildlife ecology was alright, and after that I had plant Ecology which was horrible, it was 4 hours of presentation, it was never ending, it sucked, I thought I wasnt going to make it through, my back and neck hurt from sitting and I was so bored. After the presentations I was done class, and went back up to res with the intention of being productive, but that intention was not really met. I did however received a letter informing me that I would be receiving another Bursary for $500 which is awesome. It started snowing at around 3, I was not happy... It stuck :( Other than that my afternoon was not eventful....I was lazy and not feeling awesome, my neck is really bothering me :( Stupid presentations At 5:30 Katie and I caught the bus downtown to go to hummus brothers, we had a nice dinner by candlelight (apparently they were having come candlelight evening thing) we were the only non-couple there, we got to sit on a couch which was kind of cool, and very comfy. We finished dinner at an awkard time, so we had to wait an hour to catch the next bus, we went to the ramada and got starbucks, which was yummy and warm, but I should have got a Tall not a Grande, it was a lot of drink for me to consume after eating dinner. We eventually caught the bus up to the university and I had a nice phone chat with my mom and then Katie went down to the school and I tried to work on my Visual geographies assignment which is proving to be more difficult that I would have liked. My evening plans fell through do to the snow which has turned the roads into a crazy place and cars have been going off the roads, making me super nervous about the having to drive soon when I am house sitting, I'm not a fan of driving in the snow, and quite frankly I should not have to worry about snow at this time. I hope that it doesnt last and we get a few more weeks of clear roads. Anyways I guess I will just go to bed now as I have nothing to do and I am not in the mood to be productive. Also apparently the buses have stopped running so Katie and I may be having a house guest. the roads must be worse than I thought if the buses stopped. Night!

Pop and com midterm complete

Today was a longer very dragged out day
Geo of Canada and social geography felt very long, and then I had my pop and com midterm

I'm not sure how I feel about it, the calculations were pretty easy but the theoretical stuff was challenging

After pop and com Elaine and I started to work on our plant Eco critique and we worked on it for 6.5 hours, it took so much work and research and writing and rewriting, the feeling I felt after printing it, now we just have to put together our presentation for Tuesday.

Elaine left and now I plan on relaxing the rest of the evening, should be nice :)

Night!

Sex Ed!!!

Today was an okay day
Class from 930-1130, my tutorial had been cancelled, wildlife Eco was good, we got our lab exams back and I got 45.5/50, which I was pleased with.
Plant Eco sucked as per usual, but Elaine was a champ and managed to get us a presentation date for next Tuesday and there was only 3 spot available then, she is a total team player :)

After class it was time for groove and we uses finer lights which was cool, all in all it was a good class.

After class I had lunch, iced all the cupcakes to look like boobs and the penis cakes and then took a shower, studied and prepped for sex Ed

At 6, we started to set things up for sex Ed, the event went well, only took about and hour and had just over 20 people who signed in, but I think some people didn't sign in which makes me sad

After sex Ed I finally ate one of my caramel apples, and it was like a ball of sugar, but delicious. I don't think I'll he able to eat my other one, thankfully I called in some back up for the other one that will be consumed on Thursday

I then studied for pop and com and I think I should be going to bed soon, I'm tired as have my midterm tomorrow :(
I'm nervous for it, I don't know if I know enough... I guess I will find out tomorrow



Night!

Manic Monday

Just another Manic monday.... Last night I did not get a super awesome nights sleep, it took me longer than usual to fall asleep due to a game of settlers going on in the livingroom, but eventually I dozed off, and woke up just before 8 and just before my alarm I had a slow morning, but the usual morning stuff occurred, At about 9:30 Katie and I went to go dump out our compost and then I went down to the school to go to class and I was a sleepy Chanel, trying my best not to fall asleep in geography of Canada, but I managed to make it to the end and then Jenina and I went to Tim Hortons to get come beverages with caffeine as we were both in need of something that would prevent sleep. Social Geography was good as per usual, and then Pop and Com was good, I was more awake than usual in that class and I think I actually understand what we are learning, but sadly what we are learning will not be on the midterm on Wednesday.... After Pop and Com it was up to res, on my way up I called Erica who had called me while I was in class and began catching her up on life, once in res, I started putting together laundry and gave the phone to Katie so she could talk with Erica while I went to put my laundry in the washer, once back I began making cakes for sex Ed tomorrow and eventually the phone convo with Erica had to end which was sad, I miss that girl Katie and I spent the next little while making Penis cakes and cupcakes that will eventually become boobs, should be a fun day of icing things tomorrow. While baking I also printed notes and finished my laundry, at about 430 I realized that I had not even eaten lunch, but by then it was best just to wait until dinner. I made pasta with pesto sauce and it was alright, nothing super fantabulous, but it was good. After dinner i went down to the school with the intention of going to the lab to do nests, this did not happen, but I did study for pop and com so the night was not a total loss At 9 I met with Katie, Krista and Reesha to talk about sex Ed, and just plan out how things will run etc. I think it will go well tomorrow At 9:30 we had our RA meeting which likely could have been shorter but people were getting distracted which makes things take a bit longer, but we were still out by 10:30 All day I have been wanting to eat my caramel apple but I have not had time :( And now I think it is too late to eat it, so I guess I will have to wait another day to eat it... I hope it tastes as good as it looks and that waiting for a time when I can really enjoy it is worth it. I should probably hit the hay, it's getting late and I am hoping to have an early morning tomorrow....we will see Night!

The little sleep continues

Last night AJ ended up sleeping over, we stayed up chatting till 4am, and the me being a shitty sleeper I was up at 8, and we stayed in bed till 11 talking. It was a nice slow to start morning.

Once AJ left I showered, had breakfast and then I worked on my Canada journal, printed it. Then I finished my society and space proposal as imprinted that as well.


Shortly after two I got the Nissan leaf and went And picked up Elaine and we went to super store to do some grocery shopping. After dropping off Elaine I went a hot booster juice for Katie and I


I then ate a hodgepodge of dinner and went to the lab as I had not been good about going this weekend.i came back and at 8 Katie and I went to make caramel apples at Jenns they look so good but I didn't eat one yet.

Kris was over working on his Halloween costume and then Liz and Jeremy came over and the couples are going to play settlers and I'm going to go to bed. I've been functioning on like two hours of sleep so I need it


Night!

Sleepy sAturday

Up at 8
Nicole picked me up at 10:45 with her dogs Luna and Kenny, both adorable and friendly. We went out to her place and I met the cats and was shown around, told stuff about the wood stove and chopping wood. It's definatley more of a cabin than a house, it has a loft bedroom and no tv. It's very quaint and has a view of the river

After being shown around the house it was time for me to learn to drive standard. And her car was much easier than Dans truck, it was a bit stressful but I started getting the hang of it and we went to where she normally walks the dogs and took then for a walk.


Then it was back to driving, back to her house and we dropped off the dogs and then she told me that I was going to drive back to the university, it was about a 30minute drive and I only stalled once because I tried to start in 3rd, that doesn't work. The drive up was very stressful for me, I not good at shifting down :( I need practice

After that I had a quick lunch and then hit up the craft fair with Katie kris and Lindsey it was neat, I didn't buy anything, I creeped on the lab but it was occupied :( so I found Elaine to start working on our plant Eco critique.

By the time we started it was 330 and Elaine left at 8, and we only got the intro done, it was very stressful, stupid Juan Carlos didn't even post the marking rubric, which he was supposed to post on Friday :( he frustrates me

After Elaine left I made perogies, I got the idea from AJ. I then worked on my Canada journal and pop and com notes

I also invited AJ over for a pj party and to watch movies and eat junk food, should be fun, thought I should do this now rather than later

I have yet another busy day tomorrow, it's a stressful time



Night!

A quick friday

8am Lab exam, done in 38 minutes
Got Russ to sigh my form so my research award can start being deposited
Studied pop and com
Watched BBQArea in geo
Went on a very nice lunch date with a boy named AJ, has a good time
Went shopping for sex Ed
Productivity died

Night!

Such a frustrating day....

This morning for some reason I had my alarm set for 730, even though I did have class till 930, I dont know what I was thinking Got out of bed at 8 Got ready for class and went to wildlife Ecology and I was a tad bothered by the fact that my seat had been taken and as a result I had to sit in a different spot which did not have a very good view :( After that I had plant Eco, and we basically had the same lecture we had on Tuesday, it was so stupid and I was very frustrated with plant Ecology and I did not want to be in class, I am so not happy with my prof and it is something that I am not good at hiding. After the lecture we had our lab which was EVEN more frustrating, we got back our assignments and that just made me more frustrated.. The marking was so inconsistent and SUPER frustrating Not to mention we spent the lab trying tome up with a rubric for our critiques which was stupid, it just felt like a waste of time. After the pointless lab was over Elaine and I stayed back to talk to him about our assignments which resulted in him not listening, getting defensive and making us feel stupid, he didnt even let us ask the questions we wanted, he just took the assignments and started going through why we lost marks, and trying to justify why marks were lost, but he doesnt do the marking so he doesnt know, we ended up leaving or assignments with him and being so frustrated that we could even handle to be in his presence, he made me feel like an idiot, and I sent him and email to show that my data was not far off of his data which he implied that it was. It was just so frustrating, he doesnt listen and makes you feel stupid while still sounding nice.... After that Elaine and I studied for our wildlife Eco lab quiz for a number of hours until we could not study any more and I was starving and then ate too much too quickly so my tummy has been hurting since then I'm also on call so I cant go to bed early which sucks because I am tired and I want to sleep, but I'm up till after 11, because I have to do rounds :( I have also gone a in a downward spiral of productivity, I just lost it, stupid Plant Eco ruing everything, I wish I wasnt in that class, it's not a fair class, we are taught nothing but then everything is expected of us :( I guess I am done for now Night!

The Grand Adventures of Chanel Last Name

Things morning my alarm went off too soon, I was not happy about it, I rolled out of bed, got ready for class etc My classes were pretty average as was most of my day, My day got more interesting when I decided to join the Golden Key Society, as apparently it looks good on a resume, and while filling out my application I guess I did not realize that I did not enter my Last Name where is said last name, which resulted in my name being "Chanel Last Name".....which is not correct :( I think I fixed it, but with my luck that will be on the member ship card, haha Today KAtie and I also did a T-shirt making even and we tye-dyed t-shirts and I am so impatient I want to look at mine now, but it must rest. I think it is time for Chanel Last Name to go to bed as she has had a long day and is super tired, so tired that she ended up forgetting her last name, and leaving it as last name so Good Night, from Chanel Last Name Night!

It's late so a simple summary will have to suffice

A whirlwind Monday

Today was an interesting day to say the least. Its started out normal. Woke up, got ready for class, I left early to go get the student award form that I need in order to start getting paid for my research, it was a pretty basic form, and I had to go and get a direct deposit form from the bank and I need to get Russ' signature on the form which may be a difficult one to get. I emailed him asking him when he will be in his office, but I haven't got a reply yet. I had class at 10, and it was an okayish class, rather boring and hard to follow as usual. After that I had my social geography class and we got our midterms back and guess who got 100%.....This Girl! I then went and bought a yogurt before my pop and com class, which was delicious. Pop and com was less delicious. After class I went to go print off posters for sex ed and study tip posters on brightly coloured paper. Katie came to help me, and then we went to the gym, and It was Katie's first time at the gym this year, YAY Katie! While at the gym Jenn texted me to inform me that I had the wrong date on my sex Ed posters so I had to change all of those :( Not so fun, but it's done. Once back from the gym Katie and I went down to college heights to get groceries and prescriptions and I need to get a direct deposit form too. I went to the bank, got my cheque cashed and got my direct deposit form. Then we went to shoppers to drop off prescriptions before going to save on to get groceries. I bought lots of yummy groceries and then we went back to get our prescriptions which were not ready, they took quite a while, we were waiting forever and ever, Katie got hers first and then she went to go get gift cards for Prizes for our floor for spoons, and I waited for mine, eventually it was ready but they screwed up and gave me 4 months instead of 3, so it ended up being quite expensive, which sucked, I wish they had my moms medical plan on file, then it wouldnt cost me so much up here. Once on the bus back up to res I checked my facebook and I had received a message from a Christopher Taylor asking if I would being willing to house sit for someone who lives just outside of PG and then gave me her contact info. I was so confused, I checked mutual friends and initially I only saw my brother so I texted my brother asking about this person, and then I realized through his mutual friends that he was my neoghbour from across the street back home, Chris, I was relieved to know that it wasnt creepy. I emailed this Nicole person when I got home and we are meeting tomorrow to discuss things and it's cool, she is willing to teach me hot to drive standard and to lend me her car for three weeks so I can watch her house, and she has two dogs and two cats :) I'm excited to meet her and talk things through. She works at the University and seems nice through email. It was a crazy thing to happen though, what are the chances. It will be interesting to see how it all plays out, I should have more info tomorrow, I'm a tad nervous with the whole possibility of learning to drive standard. Interms of school work, I was not productive today, I was just so taken aback by the whole house sitting thing out of the blue. I Had my RA meeting which went well and was an okay length, we also now have the meetings in the board room rather than in the common lounges which was interesting and kind of hard to see, but I guess we will get used to it. I now plan on hitting the hay. I'm tired and NEED to get a lot done tomorrow, should be a busy day! Night!

A two nest Sunday

Today was another day in which I did not set and alarm, and got out of bed at 9:30ish, and had some toast for breakfast, and a cup of salted caramel tea. I then got started studying for my wildlife ecology lab exam, I got through 3/5 labs, and then I was sick of being productivity so I watched quite a few movies like ever after, maid in Manhattan etc, so many movies were on tv this weekend and I think I watched all of them At around 3 I went down to the school to do nests. On my way out I noticed that someone had stolen my little turtle off the door, it was sad. As for the nests I was speedy, I ended up getting two done in two hours, and then my eyes were starting to bother me so I had to stop. Once back at res I started thinking about what I should have for dinner and ended up with curry and rice, and surprisingly my rice turned out okay, and my dinner was quite good. I also had to make myself a new little turtle for the door, and it doesnt look as good :( I then enjoyed some ice cream, and waited for Katie to to return. Eventually she did come home and shared with me the tales of her weekend away We are now watching Weeds and I will be hitting the hay early Night!

A somewhat productive Saturday

I set no alarm for this morning, but i woke up at 8:30 for no reason and got out of bed at around 10, I made breakfast and some pumpkin chai tea which I really enjoyed and then I began working on my Society and Space term paper proposal and I got a rough version of it completed which is good considering the proposal isn't due for over a week. Katie left me...again.... :( to go to Vanderhoof with Kris I then got to work on my canada Journal, I still need to write two pages for this week so I got that done, I am now up to 16 pages which is a good place for me to be considering we need to hand it in for the midterm review in just over a week, which means I should be at 18 pages by then which is good, it has to be a minimum of 25 pages when we hand the final copy in at the end of November. After working on that I procrastinated a bit, and had some lunch etc. At around 2:20 I went down to the lab to see if I could do a nest, but the lab was occupied so I had to come back later. Once back in res I planned out RA stuff, poster series and programs and such, I have things planned for this semester and even part of next semester, I feel like I am in a good place in terms programming and planning and such. I also have a meeting with Jenn on Tuesday to discuss my December/late November program which will be something like are you smarter than a 5th grader. Oh also I was trying to work out how to get the money from my Undergraduate research award, I need to fill out a form, but I dont know where this form is or how to go about getting it, hopefully I get that sorted out so I can start getting paid :) I also started filling out an application for an internship at the Critter Care Center in Langley, that is due in November so it's good that I am getting a head start on it now. I just need to get a reference and a reference letter. I killed time by doing RA planning and then made myself some dinner, potato wedges and a turkey burger, yum, and then after dinner and a cup of tea I went down to the school to do a nest and I managed to finish the nest in about an hour and half which is good, I think I am getting quicker at going through the dust looking for fleas, I find that the fleas stand out more to me now. I called my dad when I was leaving the lab because the building is creepy after dark, we had a nice chat. I let him know that I wanted setters of Catan for christmas and I asked him what he wanted. I know that it is only october but I figure it's better to think of these things earlier rather than later. After talking with my dad I didnt do much, watched tv, and relaxed, I'll probably go to bed soon, maybe make some warm milk and wind down for the evening. I need to have aproductive day tomorrow. I need to go a nest and study for my lab exam that I have friday, and also start studying for my pop and com midterm that I have a week from wednesday and maybe if I have the also work on my plant ecology critique with Elaine. Well I guess that's all. Another lonely night for me, Katie is spending the night in Vanderhoof and should be back tomorrow. Night!

It does not feel like friday... other than the fact I stayed up later than normal

I was up at 7, to get ready for my 8 am lab, and it was an interesting lab We got to watch the full necropsy of a mule deer and the partial necropsy of a wolf, it was interesting to watch though there were some moments I found nauseating. I didnt enjoy the skinning of the head of the deer or when the skin got basically peeled off of it's legs Needless to say the lab took the full 3 hours, and after that Elaine and I went and got yogurt, YUM and sat and chatted, we both had class at 11:30 so we have about 20 minutes to kill. I then went to my Society and Space seminar and todays seminar was about Poverty and it was okay, a bit dull I guess and not too much discussion when compared to previous weeks. After class I had planned on going to the lab to do a nest, but when I went there, two people were already doing nests so there was no spot for me, I would have to come back later. I went up to res and thought about all the things that I had to do, and then Katie and I talked a bit about sex Ed, and sorted out the powerpoints and such and then we went to go talk with Jenn about the program and such, there had also been some confusion between Jenn and I with regards to me doing Bulletin boards, I was unaware that I had to do them and we ended up deciding that rather than Bulletin boards I would do poster series to make it easier to get it in both buildings At 4:30 I left to go to the gym, crank n' core was at 5 and by the time I got there the class was almost full, I signed in myself and elaine, and we were the last people on the list before it was declared full. It was a rough workout, I got called out for not working hard enough... but not in a mean way, it was just mentioned that I wasnt going fast enough. After crank n' core I made myself dinner and called my Daddy to update him on life, and then I took a shower before heading down to the school to do a nest, there was no one in the lab, it was almost a bit creepy. It took me just under 2 hours to do the nest and I found 21 fleas, crazy..... Walking back to res was a bit creepy..... When I got back I texted Katie to see if she was returning home, and I did not get a reply until later, she was at Liz and Jeremys and she actually just came home now I would have been in bed already but I got distracted with RA stuff, I made 4 poster series and a newsletter, I'm set for awhile interms of posters and passive programs. I also made the Sex Ed posters which are amusing. I should really be going to bed soon, I'm sleepy and my neck is a bit sore.... I'll probably just chat with Katie for a bit and then go to bed. Night!

yet another lonely tired night

A quick summary, I am i no mood to type Another shitty nights sleep Class at 9:30 - Wildlife Ecology, got midterm back, got 92.5%, highest in the class Class at 10:30 Plant Ecology wrote midterm, it went okay 11:30 plant Ecology lab, got lectured bu some profs visiting from Sweden, huge waste of time, long lectures, wasnt into it, wish I hadnt gone Went to the gym with Elaine, didnt want to go, her and Kurt made me, I worked hard, sore, tired Took hot shower Didnt do much else that could be considered productive, going to bed early, hoping to sleep better Drinking warm milk, trying to relax, we will see how it goes Night!
