India was amazing! All my thoughts were written in a separate journal though so I won't get into it here. I did end up getting some much needed relaxation time once we were in Goa. When I got back to Guelph I immediately started working again at La Cucina. Thankfully I didn't have to go back to Artisanale for 3 days. Oddly enough I didn't feel ( Read more... )

So excited that I'll be leaving for India in 24 hours! I can't believe how quickly these past few months have gone ( Read more... )

Well since my last post I decided not to go to George Brown. I'm not sure exactly when the decision to not go came about. I think it was more a gradual realization. But one night I was sitting in the kitchen listening to my mom talk about their trip to India and how the plans had been coming along, when I got a strong desire to want to go and ( Read more... )

This ended up being a pretty weird week. Very high ups and very low downs. I'm just glad it's finally over ( Read more... )

The much anticipated break from university is here! It's been so nice to just be able to bake to my heart's content and not worry about homework. I started the break off in Windsor visiting with Mark's family. My dad ended up meeting us down there to drive me back to Winnipeg. I always feel a bit awkward surrounded by Mark's family, even though I' ( Read more... )

Well it makes sense now why I was so tired Wednesday. I woke up Thursday with a fever and a bit of a headache. Sick twice this term! I don't remember being this susceptible to illness before. But at least in both cases I recovered in about a day. I woke up this morning a bit hot, but I think for the most part it's gone. I spent last night just ( Read more... )

Finally made a decision about my future. For a month or so I kept going back and forth between whether I should stick with getting a math job after I graduate, or going to culinary school. Then somewhere in the middle I started pondering grad school ( Read more... )

Having a fever and sore throat is making me not really feeling like doing homework but my abstract algebra assignment is due tomorrow.. It's a fun course, but hard to wrap my head around some of the things like thinking about multiplication in terms of the mod function. I'm pretty proud with how many proofs I've done tonight without any internet ( Read more... )

I'd been thinking for a while that I should go talk to my program counselor, just to make sure I was on the right track towards graduating. To my complete surprise she told me I only needed 2 more credits after this semester to graduate (4 more courses). I'm not sure how I managed to cut back a whole semester's worth of courses.. but that gave me ( Read more... )

I got my first tattoo yesterday! I was surprised how in and out it was. For some reason piercings always felt like a bigger deal even though this is permanent. I got two cat paws on my left shoulder. I think it's fitting for me since I love animals so much ( Read more... )
