summer plans

well its that time of year again...school is done and its vacation planning time!!! nothing really exciting this summer for moi except that i am off to the states for about 10 days to visit some family and good friends that i haven't seen in a LONG time. i am going to North Carolina and Utah...now some may ask why those two states of all of the US but my cousins live in NC and my good friend kelsey lives in Utah so thats why. i haven't seen my cousins in YEARS since one of them was 7...he is now 19! and i don't really get to see that much of Kels cause she is only home during the holidays really. so i am excited! now i just have to wait for my passport which is supposed to be here by the 4th of july...strange since i am going to the states?!?!?
anyway...what is evveryone doing for the summer?! keep me in the loop hopefully we can get together either before i leave...before you leave or before i move in august

i suppose that i should up date this thing!

well since its been al long time i find it necessary to update you all on my lives again!
i am still at blockbuster but now as a shift leader...and i wanted this to be my non responsibility job! i am also working for the university as an information consultant for infolink which is a great job! easy and mindless. i sit and read and surf the internet and update my blog (i am at work right now in fact) other then that i got a kitten! his name is gary and he is very cute! that is big news but not the biggest.
i am leaving the university after 3 years and moving on to SAIT in calgary to do a diploma in travel and tourism. its weird to leave but i am really excited and i really think that i have finally figured out what i want for my career and for my life! my lease for my apartment actually came in the mail yesterday so it is official i have to be in my apartment august 22nd.
i will miss everyone but i am excited for the new people and opportunites that await me!

The Inspirer...is that even a word???

we all know i would bever make a good politician...this thing is wonky!!

You Are An ENFP

The Inspirer

You love being around people, and you are deeply committed to your friends.
You are also unconventional, irreverant, and unimpressed by authority and rules.
Incredibly perceptive, you can usually sense if someone has hidden motives.
You use lots of colorful language and expressions. You're qutie the storyteller!

You would make an excellent entrepreneur, politician, or journalist.

new job

so i thought that it might be time to actually update this thing with something other then my rantings about fights with random strangers. So as you all know i quit Micheal's back in May and moved onto Advantage RV for summer employment which was both a good and bad experience for me. But now....I have my fall aka school time job again and wait for it...its NOT at Michaels...aren't you all so proud!!! So where is it then you ask??? Well its at one of those places that all of you have been telling me that i should work for years...the video store...specifically BLOCBUSTER video. i have been there for almost 4 weeks now and its seems to be going ok so far, except the hours kind of suck...i have to work until midnight most of the time which i hate!!! i feel like i live in this viscous cycle of school/work/schoolwork/3 hours sleep. i don'y really see anyone and have gotten messages on my phone asking me if i'm still alive and if i am to please call. so wether or not this job is really good is yet to be seen but is it better then michaels probably.

i heart fighting with strangers

so i remember now why i hate mondays...everyone is extra sensitive on mondays. yesterday i got in a screaming match with htus girl in my soc class in the middle of class. it made for a great frickin day. so it all began very innocently as we sat in our group and chatted about our project. Then she decided to start talking....she said that she had ethical problems with how the grup had chosen the topic and that our ethics were questionable. in my rather short time on the planet i have never had my ethics questioned and over such a stupid thing i was rather suprised....i would think that in someones third year of university a difference of opinion could be handled maturely...apperantly i was wrong. she went on to say that she felt that as a group as well as me specifically were attacking her for her feelings...she was concerned that us talking about sexuality in class would offend her group of friends that were of no specific issue to our project all. i understand that you are concerned with what your friends might think of you... there are times that we all are. but would they ever even hear about the project if you didn't tell them...so i don't really understand the problem. if you cannot handle critisism and discussion where everyone will not agree then you should not take classes where there wll be group discussion or projects and maybe you should consider not attending a post secondary institution.
ahhh i heart fighting with strangers.

school

So...its been a while since i have updated this thing and the entire summer is practically gone by...well actually it has gone by and school has started again. We have been back in school for 5 days or so and already there is so much work to be done and a very small amount of time to do it in. Its strange to be back at the university because there are so many friends that have moved on to bigger things...most even to better things.
The fact that so many of them have finished really makes me excited that i am close to being done too. But not quite yet so let the work continue so that i can do some big things this summer. (GERMANY here i come!!!) So to all of you i wish you luck in your school year and for those of you that are not in school i secretly hate you with every fiber of my being...no i hope you are having fun and its strange not to see you on campus.
