Hello Friends,
September is already drawing to a close - indicative of my descent into madness with school work. Actually, most of the madness stems from the ever-looming graduation in the spring. I have heard it referred to as senior-itis and usually it doesn't hit until second semester, but the longing to be done school has taken an early hold on me.
Unfortunately, this means planning for post-school has also hit and it is probably more difficult than anything my teachers have thrown at me. I have changed my plans about 12 times in the last 3 weeks alone. Everything from Finland to Toronto to Montreal to Edmonton to Vancouver to Calgary to staying in Lethbridge... and I'm no closer to figuring it out. Well, I must admit I have a leaning. But as those who spend any amount of time with me know, that is likely to change in the very near future.
Highlights of September include attending a potluck held by my religious studies professor. There's nothing quite like watching sober on the sidelines while a whole faculty slips into the realm of drunken shenanigans. I also met a lovely lesbian couple with an adorable infant. It was an interesting night to say the least. Other highlights of the month included being recruited by my chiropractor to work his booth at student events and getting paid to do so and attending a birthday party that was comprised of people who wanted nothing more than to play Yahtzee around a fire. I yahtzee'd on my first roll.
October promises to be cold, windy, but really just more of same.
FYI: Today's wind was 74 km/h and I walked home from school. Never again.
Cheers,
Jacqueline
