Well I am back in the swing of things. The weekend was full of work and homework, but the end result is that I am well ahead in one of my classes, which will leave me more time to get my paper, presentation, and translation assignment all squared away for next week. *Deep breath* I am not overly worried as I have been getting good results back ( Read more... )

Well, I am in the Vancouver Airport waiting to board my flight home. It was a FANTASTIC trip. Since my last update, we visited Granville Island market, ate at Rangoli (next to Vij's and owned and run by the same guy - world famous Indian food!)... I took a lovely afternoon walk in Stanley Park, along the sea wall. After dinner on Sunday we went ( Read more... )

I am on a brief holiday in Vancouver this weekend. I forgot how AWESOME this city is; I wish I could afford to live here. You know, I adore Winnipeg and I am so glad I live there, but whenever I visit a city that has a real, vibrant downtown, I feel a little sad. Like I'm missing out. But I am having a grand time... we ate at a world-famous ( Read more... )

and now it's done. she is moved out and I am officially alone. Hopefully I will be able to use this time to get myself together and figure things out again. Re-ground myself, I guess. I recall liking myself a lot more, and I'd like to get back the confidence I once had.

breakup = official.

god damn, i'm sad.

I am really beginning to wonder if I am at all capable of having a meaningful, healthy, romantic relationship with another person. I try to get it right and I fuck it up every time. I used to be really happy with who I am; now I am always thinking about how I'll never be good enough.

*sigh*

Well, I'm back at it, trying to settle into some kind of routine YET AGAIN. I don't think my life will ever be what one could call "settled." It is going to be one crazy semester. We'll see how it goes, but I'm already thinking I'm gonna have to drop a course in January. Right now I have three literature and/or critical/cultural theory courses ( ( Read more... )

It's allergy time again... that blissful time of year when I am perma-medicated and all itchy and sneezy. Hooray. It makes me sad that this time of year makes me wish that summer would hurry up and end so that all that nasty pollen will go away ( Read more... )

It has been a pretty heavy week, and I am glad it's coming to an end. Saturday morning I saw Justin off at the airport. I did my best to be a tough cookie, and I think I did fairly well until his mom absolutely flat refused to leave until he was all the way through security and out of sight. I would rather have just hugged him, waved, and left, ( Read more... )

Well today is my first of four days off for the August Long Weekend. Hooray! So far I've spent it sleeping in, doing laundry, watching Buffy, doing dishes, listening to Coldplay, shaving my legs... Pretty relaxed. Justin will be coming by in a little while to hang out, which will be nice. I'll be seeing him off at the airport tomorrow morning, ( Read more... )
