30 March 2005

The weather has been gorgeous this week and that makes me happy. Writing my second last paper while listening to Stravinsky and Guster. Kingston plans for this weekend are foiled but it should still be an awesome weekend here.

Floor planning: I will be living in second Kirk next year if all goes as planned. I'm quite excited because we've planned for the section at the very end of the hall which has it's own set of doors separating it from the rest of the hall. I also found out that the room Laura and I share right now will be the H of C Common Room next year.

I got some nice marks back this week which also contributed to my uplifed mood. It makes me wish I got my act together sooner (maybe halfway through first instead of second semester).

All I need now is a job for the summer and I am SET! More nice marks to get me into IR wouldn't hurt either.

It's a very small world.

Everything will happen "next week."

The best time to have started that paper/studying for a test was "last week."

I have to go to French now, and by that I mean 10 minutes ago.

20 March 2005

I just came to the horrifying realization that the date today is March 20th when I was typing a footnote in an essay I'm writing. Classes end in 19 days.

Spent yesterday in the K-W; fun fun fun.

Kiss me I'm Chinese, but my parents were married 21 years ago today.

Fairly good week again. Yesterday was kinda rough but Tuesday was fabulous.

I'll be in Waterloo on Saturday (just for a day trip; too much work to do here!) to see Ally and With Respect to Time (her engineering jazz band) at the EngPlay (I forget what they're putting on this time).

Listening to a lot of Portishead these days. And some Aphex Twin, but not as much.

I'll bet that you didn't wake up to a live steel drum band this fine Sunday morning.

Friday: party at Kuba's! I saw a lot of people I hadn't seen in a while and met lots others (mostly from Schulich). It's weird how I never got to know some of them better in high school. For example, I ended up talking to Heather G. for 20 minutes about Literature of Our Times, a class she's in that I'm not but I live take vicariously through Ama and Laura. We raved about Hedwig and her angry inch and bashed Ted Hughes.

Saturday: came back to school, re-entered the crummy mood partially thanks to a minute observation, and broke my coffee pot. Waterworks ensued.

Life is like one bad drug trip nowadays. The highs are insanely high, only to be smashed into a constrastingly extreme low. Alcohol augments all emotions present.

Now it's like some crazy choir with flags. Oh Toronto, how I love thee!

I hope this is not too early for a week evaluation but I really do feel that I've had a good week for the most part.

I felt ill with some ungodly malady all yesterday (which miraculously disappeared when I woke up this morning) and missed most of my classes as a result, but still made it to work, had a really good shift, and went home so that I could go to the orthodontist this morning, where I found out I will be getting those damn braces off a hell of a lot earlier than originally anticipated. Monday and Tuesday were productive: got work done and hit the pool. Tomorrow I have one test in one class and then back to "the Markham" once again.

I do have a huge essay + presentation due on Tuesday worth apparently 45% of my mark (just found out at dinner; damn me for not reading the syllabus more carefully). Good fucking grief. Time to get cracking.

Must finish residence appeal for tomorrow and start apartment pre-hunting (just in case since my odds don't look good).

Feeling fat I am. FAT FAT FAT. FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT. Fuck off and don't ana me.

I've spent the past three days watching Lost. It's cool how as I'm watching it, I see everything as governance issues. Go IR! Also, it doesn't hurt that Ian Somerhalder is hot. ;)

I'm either getting really good at controlling how much I eat or Sodexho food is just getting to me.

This past weekend was spent in the K-W and it was the best one in a while. I almost cried on the bus back to Toronto. I ended up crying later on that night.

I've lost two pounds and I'm ashamed to say it makes me fucking happy.

If I had a bloody iMood thing it would say aloof right now. I feel distant as though I'm watching my life on tv, but at the same time I've never been this "together" in so long.

Thinking of transferring to UWO or UW. Thinking, that's all.
