“Humidity is rising – Barometer’s getting low…”
- “It’s Raining Men” by the Weather Girls
Hey Mary!!
Not promising my entry will be as exciting as men falling from the sky, but it was the first song I could think of to do with hotter weather!!
Three cheers for summer!!
Don’t worry too much about Easter weekend, as I understand that you were stressed…^^;; But who wants to think about a time before the end of exams??
I’m home now and I have been since Saturday, but definitely the last weeks of silence were due to bad scheduling. I had to race against time to get my project done, because it took a lot longer than I expected. Definitely my first ever week of drinking four cups of coffee!! O.o…not to mention packing. How were things during the aftermath of the exam attack?? The halls must’ve been littered with people hugging and ripping things down left and right. I hope the move out went smoothly for you!
I was really touched when I left Ottawa, because it honestly didn’t feel like I wasn’t going to be in the office again the next week. My division sent me off with a nice lunch at Darcy McGee’s and a nice gift bag filled with HMIRC goodies (HMIRC= Hazardous Materials Information Review Comission…..such a long and important-SOUNDING name….)!!! Mother and HighSis came to get me that night and I was to leave the next day….crazy!!
And now I’ve moved from T.O to Guelph already…sorry for the not replying!! There was a lot of stuff going on with my family and I think you’re very right on the point that you really appreciate your family more at a distance. I spent most of my last days being really upset with them. Do you ever feel like all your family does sometimes is criticize you? Sometimes I wonder whether it’s normal for them to be so judgemental of me, because I honestly don’t feel like I’m like that towards them. It’s true that only true friends will tell you if your breath smells bad or if that toupee on your head is askew, but I’m not sure what the limit should be with family.
Bring back in T.O has let me observe some things too. HighSis and Karen have been best friends since grade 8, but it seems like they’re always arguing with each other about things that I don’t know whether it’s a play fight or act that they keep up. And good friends can insult each other good-naturedly, but what if you don’t realize and think that they really mean it?? WHERE IS THE LINE???
It’s because I’ve come back to Guelph that it has me thinking all about friends again, because I’m seeing people again that I haven’t seen in so long!! Didn’t it feel like that for you too last fall?? But I don’t think I have much time to relax because I should really start looking for jobs for the fall and studying soon and it’s only the second school day!! I’ve got six courses (that’s one more than I would usually take) and they are:
- Analytical Chemistry
-Organic Chemistry
-Cell Biology
-Principles of Disease
-Statistics II
-Serial Murder
I’m really looking forward to the Serial Murder course; I’ve already read the required readings for the first week!! It really made me think of those encyclopedias you used to bring to class about murderers and now I can’t read it at night because my bed is right next to a big window that opens out to the street. It IS Guelph, but I’ve got T.O-grown paranoia. XD
So what plans have you started on for the summer?? Do you have to start planning your VBS yet?? I think I’ll be more regular about the blog now(1/2-4 days??) , since I’m fairly settled and I’ll need a break every so often from cells, graphs and murderers. I need to get going now, so I’ll talk to you soon!!
Linda
P .S.
It’s been a while and it’s FRIDAY, but what the heck!!
Question of the Week:
What is the ULTIMATE summer getaway??
Fairly light-hearted for a good start to four months of good weather, no??
