11 days till classes start
3:44 p.m.
i can't believe i'm doing a countdown for classes.
my god things are backwards over here.
anj's mom said that while we're here, things were gonna be opposite of what they usually are like back home, and so far it's more or less true.
anj has started seeing someone, leaving me without a buddy to hang out with during the weekend.
it's alright, personal time is good. i either have super busy days, then super dead days. all i've been doing this lazy saturday is vegging on my couch. i love my couch.
and i love my sandwich maker. they make my existence possible.
anyway, yeah so that's a little opposite because anj and i were super anti-relationship and bitter and cynical and everything.
but now there's so much love/infatuation going around. it's very foreign.
i mean anj is actually jumping into something, and i'm not too down on the idea either. i'm also looking at guys as people rather than just objects. hahaha.
this certainly has been a growing experience being over here.
but with all the buzz about v-day, there've been such polarities in celebrations.
it's nice being single, first time in ages, and i like the lack of obligation to do something sappy and stupid. no pressure, just going out and getting drunk with other singles, not even necessarily with the expectation of hooking up.
and talking to one of my friends back home has the most superfunctional relationship i know, they're the hottest couple and they are so good for each other. knowing them makes me less of a cynic, i can accept that there are people out there for me.
but i'm def not rushing into anything here just for the sake of it. i mean, i'm pretty sure that's what anj's doing. i know she likes the dude, but i think she likes the idea of dating more.
whatever, it's her prerogative. she's happy, and i'm happy for her.
i am excited for school. i mean, i only have 2 days of class per week, so it's not going to take up too much of my time. it'll give me a productive environment to meet people, and hopefully i can be work-compatible with a group of them. i need someone like alicia in my production group!!!
hahaha mean girls is on tv right now, and i want it to be halloween again! one of the girls i worked with is going to regina for an exchange and she's super stoked on halloween. i love dressing up. maybe i'll take a page from adrienne's book and have the march of doom. just have a rando costume partay in my room.
holy a.d.d.
ummm.... oh yeah, about school. i actually like the first day of school. it's the whole first impressions thing. i never know if the first impression i give off is accurate. when adrienne first met me, she thought i was such a rude bitch. it's not far from the truth, it just took her a bit of time to get endeared to it.
but it always seems so natural to get back into the swing of things.
when i started first year, the day before i was just in cali. and everything just flowed from there.
going into second year.. i was coming from montreal? no, i did go to montreal, but i was pretty much just lounging aroung or something.
summer always seemed to go by so fast, but now it feels like forever and i love it.
i don't think i'll have any exams, and if i do, i'll likely only have 1. so i'm probably gonna be done early june, my house contract ends july 7 i think. so i'm gonna have another month of vacation here before i return home.
it's so crazy to think about. time is flying.
i mean there are days like these when i dont do anything exciting. but i am living here, so not everyday is gonna be super eventful. i mean it's not like i always go to the c.n. tower or casa loma all the time.
besides, i need to earn money and not spend it. the intial plan was to do all my travelling prior. but the unexpected fees at the airport in korea were a little hitch.
random thought, i wish i had dimples. i'd be like maybe 20%cuter. but i dunno if anyone would be able to handle it.
but yeah, when ossh vijits me, we'll hit the g barrier reef. hopefully zealand too. and melbourne. that'll be a good party spot. and she knows some aussies too from when she went backpacking in europe, so that'll be convenient too.
that's at the top of the list of things i have to do while i'm here, along with surfing.
and if i absolutely have money, i'm gonna hit maybe thailand, singapore, malaysia and/or taiwan.
i'm on my way to being triply hired. i'm only allowed to work 20 hrs per week. that'd be around $1600/month if i am able to work 20 hrs. but everything is casual. i'll prolly have some 6 hr week,s then some 30 hr weeks.
there are always ways around things here.
i'm excited to sample strongbow cider, i haven't had it before and the promotion seems interactive. it's pretty stellar.
god, things just need to start happening!!!
ok, i'm being ungrateful of all the stuff i've experienced already.
goddamn i'm getting way distracted. pat just called, we're prolly gonna hit the zoo sometime this week.
he's got girl issues which i find hilarious.
guy/girl interactions are messed man.
ok, i can;t concentrate.
moral of the story - i want classes to start. i want money. and i want to travel.
the end
