Grr. I so do not want to be writing this paper right now; I want to be at the pool, lying in the sun, swimming a few laps, lying in the sun some more. But no. I'm square on my ass, writing another damn paper.

In other news? This is the last significant paper of my degree. So, I guess I'm not doing that badly. I guess there are those two little 250 ( Read more... )

I realized this weekend that in the last three weeks, I've been to three big festivals: Hats Off Day in Burnaby, Car Free Day on Main Street, and the International Dragon Boat Festival. And here I was complaining that Vancouver had no culture! Well, this summer has proven me wrong already. The rain stops here for a few weeks and Vancouverites are ( Read more... )

Ugh, I can't sleep. Luke's curled up cosily in bed, and I wish I were still there with him, but I kept rolling around and thinking about things. I kind of wanted to grab my handwritten journal, but that involved rummaging around in stuff in the bedroom--it was just easier to grab the laptop. Oh, laptop, how I love thee!

A few things were rolling ( Read more... )

Writing papers. Is. So. Damn. Hard. I swear, if this wasn't my last semester, one way or another I'd have to take a year off and not even crack open a book. I am so done with project proposals, of professors asking quite meaningless questions and having to spend hours answering them (to only be told that oops, sorry, you did it wrong because they ( Read more... )

COMING SOON: Leaving residence forever, moving in with the boyfriend, and the millions of changes in my life that seem to have taken place overnight. Or at least in the last few months that I've been horribly neglecting LJ. Sorry, guys.

Heart!

Oh noes! No updates since the end of December? Simply will not do... but this will have to be quick, because I need sleep desperately.

1. Sarah--the American / Australia Sarah, the one that was Ola's roomie--is here at the moment! I've missed her lots! I'm so glad she was able to come visit us.

2. Live is so incredibly hectic. OMG, let me tell you. ( Read more... )

A few things, because I'm procrastinating and bored and want to be doing anything but writing these papers. I kid you not.

1 - My posts from 2002 when I started this LJ are absurd. Seriously. Please don't go read them as I'll only be embarrassed, just trust me when I say that I was a really silly 15 year old at the time. I had some kind of ( Read more... )

Oh, the fruits of procrastination! Here are some of my more recent scrapbook pages, click on the image to go to the Picasa album. :)

I just got back from another Sunday of ongoing CA training--and today was actually pretty interesting, I thought. They get us together for two hours on the last Sunday of a month for various activities; last time it was two hours of those damn "team builder" exercises that we blessedly didn't have time for in normal training, but this week it was ( Read more... )
