Here I am again!
Today, I indulged myself by looking at apartments for rent in Hamilton. I can't yet afford to move out again, but now with 2 jobs, one which pays lots of beans, it may be on the horizon. If I play my cards right. Meaning - if I stop frivolously spending money on trips, food, clothes, movies, random crap, etc ( Read more... ) -
Sore Feet
Busy day for me! Spent a very nice morning with MG, then headed into work in the afternoon, where we were understaffed and very busy. My feet hurt...I should probably get better shoes. I kind of have this fear of my feet turning out like my mom's when I'm old. She's got really painful and icky hammertoes, and if I get that I'm sure mine will be 10x ( Read more... ) -
Flippin Friday
Friday's don't really mean as much as they used to when I was in school. Now, Friday's usually just mean that my friends will be doing interesting things, while I'm working a close shift. That's kind of why I was hired - to work weekends. I don't mean to complain, but I was involved in making plans to do something really fun with my U of T friends ( Read more... ) -
Speaking of direction...
I'm back already. See, what did I tell you?! Ok, here's the thing. I just wanted to write it down somewhere before I forgot. Ever since it became clear that my career goals were ...unobtainable, let's say...I've been trying to think of other things to do with myself. Teaching seems to be the most practical. But a small part of me has been thinking ( Read more... ) -
Just can't get enough
Now it's 11:30AM on Thursday. I'm telling you, I really missed writing! I've accumulated too many half-thunk thoughts, and now that I've starting typing things out again, I can't stop ( Read more... ) -
(Untitled)
lulz lulz. Kind of a funny tale to tell. So my friend Laura at school - who is super into graphic design and computery things - came up with the winning design for some t-shirts the Museum Studies people are going to have made. Her design was pretty funny. It is based on this 'team' of authors in our field, John Falk and Lynn Dierking. Together, ( Read more... ) -
things
time again to resort to the trusty blog to air some crap that i can't stop thinking about. to begin with, this has been a pretty crap filled week. school is more stressful than ever, with 3 huge time-consuming projects (2 of which are also 'real-world' projects; that is, work we are doing for real clients, the Art Gallery of Ontario and the ( Read more... ) -

Retail Therapy
Since I've been here, I've tried to restrain myself with the souvenir buying. I didn't want to deal with trying to get everything into my luggage, which was pretty close to being over the weight limit when I left Canada ( Read more... ) -
An Excellent Saturday
I had a very nice day today. I got to sleep in, although all this waking up early has severely limited my sleeping-in powers - I could only stay in bed till 10am, then I couldn't lay in bed awake any longer. Doesn't help that there are only a few select spots on the mattress that don't have springs that poke you in the back ( Read more... )
