Bonjour class

This year of school is flying past so fast. I can not believe it's already the first week of October and next Monday is Thanksgiving. Everything is happening fast, and I feel like I'm not doing anything productive. I need a night where I just focus on school and get a least one of my papers done, and work on my HR project, and maybe do some more work on the business plan. And I definitely need to study for my entrepreneurship midterm on Thursday and FOR SURE study for my stats midterm on Friday .. considering I've done nothing in that class so far.

Today I received an email from my Research & Writing instructor and it was really nice. She expressed her worry for me missing class, sleeping in class and being overall not focused or interested in being there. And I didn't lie, I told her I don't like it. I feel like I'm in this program for the wrong reason. It shouldn't be about pleasing my parents. It shouldn't be about 'having a back-up plan' as my mom calls it. I want to be in design school. I don't understand what is so hard for my parents to grasp about that. I think I'd do really well there considering it's what I'm interested in. I actually think I'm going to take up sewing and painting. I'm not challenged in my day-to-day life and really need something with some sort of substance to keep me sane while I live here.

Don't get me wrong, I love hanging out with my friends, it's just sometimes I feel the need to be creative, or do something other than sit around, tan, eat out or watch movies. It's never a dull time with them, I just keep feeling like I need something more.

when in rome?

Here I am, on the eve of my first mid-term of the year, Intro to Human Resources, and what am I doing? Not studying, that's for sure. What am I doing, you ask? Well, I'm watching 'When in Rome' with Mary-Kate & Ashley Olsen! I love their movies so much! They remind of my (clearly, quite gay) childhood and watching them at Alicia's! I figured I studied enough earlier and a quick little look over before I go to bed, and I'm praying I'll be all set.

Even if I'm not, as long as I passed I'll be happier than an fat man at an all-you-can-eat buffet!

Readers!

Okay, this is just a little quickie update before I start getting ready for work, but

yay!

I have readers!! I'm really excited actually! That must mean I'm interesting enough that people wanna know more. I was really contemplating giving this whole blogging thing up but I'm more encouraged to write more! Those two anonymous posters means that maybe there are others, who just didn't comment ... which makes me excited and scared. I love it!

I'll try to get some more blogs up soon : )

hmmm..

I feel like I should be blogging about things.
Not just 'school sucks' 'i hate this town' and stuff like that.

I feel like there's important issues to blog about and that my insight would/could be valuable .. even though no one reads this blog, haha.

(As a little side note, if you read this, could you leave a little anonymous comment letting me know, just so I know I'm not blogging for the little elves inside this shittastic laptop)

So let's see what's in the news today!

• Debates - Canadian: Okay, I watched about 10 minutes of it and the agression and childish feeling I got from the whole thing was unreal. They were arguing like children. And poor Mr. Harper was getting the shit end of the deal .. Which he should because he sucks as Prime Minister and we definitely need a change. I'll refrain from posting my political views in lue of avioding arugments ... just know that I'm very anti-conservative and will not be voting that way.
  - American: I didn't watch this debate but I follow twitter and read the news enough to know that Sarah Palin is a moron and should not be VP. And secondly, after reading the news about the views and opinions of John McCain, I truely believe that he should not be President. I really hope to God that he doesn't get elected into office. The US economy is already fucked because of Republicans. There needs to be a change everywhere.
• Global Warming - No one can tell me that global warming is not in effect, and that we should not be worried about it. This is such a big deal right now, I do not understand why more is not being done. There are websites after websites letting people know how they can make a difference and most of the time, it saves us money! Why would you not want to take two seconds to unplug things when you're not using them? Your power bills will thank you, I promise! There are so many simple things you can do to help save more energy and therefore do your part in saving our planet. It's the only one we've got people, let's take care of it.

And I think that's all for today. I started thinking about talking about giving blood and how I'm unable to now, and a couple other things but I realized I would just be ranting and freaking out and just thinking about that right now is almost giving me an anxiety attack .. aka, not fun.

So, until next time ... leave me a comment if you read!

ik vond een familie!

Hey guys!

Remember how I said I wanted to au pair in Europe?!
WELL!
I think I might have found a family for July 2009! It's very early to tell but we've been emailing back and forth and I really hope this happens! The family seems very sweet with two young children and they're from the Netherlands! COULD YOU IMAGINE?!

I'm so excited, I really hope this au pair thing works out!!
