I got letters from Brock, Western, and Lakehead acknowledging my applications. Finally! I can start on my online Lakehead profile of experience! ... if only the stupid website worked ( Read more... )

I finished my application to Western last night ( Read more... )

Alex came home for the weekend. It was nice. We saw Stranger than Fiction on Friday night with his dad - it sucked. This morning we went to the Kanata Santa Clause parade with my neice and nephew. Totally cute ( Read more... )

I have a huge Grant Proposal due by 4:30 on Wednesday. I don't think it should be too horribly difficult to write. It has to be on anything to do with plant-herbivore interactions. I'm doing something with slugs. Probably the effects of global warming, draught, or frost on slugs and the subsequent flora diversity. Anyway, I'm going to school early ( Read more... )

Late night last night. Early morning to finish my Shakespeare response - only to find out that I wrote about the wrong play! I couldn't make up some half-@ssed response to the correct one because I've never read it before! Anyway, I decided not to go to class ... then changed my mind and figured I should probably go just so he doesn't think I'm ( Read more... )

Work tonight was crazy. I didn't get out until 2 am. Had a paper due in Shakespeare. I told him I wouldn't be in class because of some issues and I ended up e-mailing him the paper that I just finished now. Hopefully he doesn't care about it's not being turned in physicallyI got the St. Mark Grad Photos. Will post them next time, or soon after. ( Read more... )

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! -- and a special Halloween to you, Air.

I met my mentee today. He's chill. The teacher introduced me to the class and they all think I'm supercool and want me to be their mentor. *L ( Read more... )

Concordia yesterday was okay. My first match, I totally could have won. I'm just lazy. My second match I won by points - and got a huge goose egg on my forehead. Third match - I wrestled the same girl I did first and totally sucked. *meh* 4th ( Read more... )
