PARTY

hi.

it's been busy since i've been home. it was busy when i was home. i wish it hadn't been so busy. there were so many people i wanted to see more of. i never got to be really lazy with anyone, which is what i really wanted. oh well. it was great to be home.

i'm spending a lot of my time getting applications ready, thinking of studying for the gres but not studying for them. classes started and they aren't as great as i had hoped. a lot of crappy professors. well, one in particular. oh well. i'll just skip a lot of classes and do work on my own which will be fine.

i got a job! well, a second one. i'm working with a psychologist who is in the education department. i'm working with a ph.d. student and i get to interview kids with her. i'm excited. i'm going to volunteer for a month and then they are going to start paying me. everyone in the lab is really nice and hopefully i'll make some new friends. and they don't even care if i don't speak french. i'm really excited about this. i thought that volunteering was all i was going to get. the professor that i'm working for said she will help me with my applications, mostly telling me which professors would be good to work with, which will be a big help. she is great. she tells me how great i am all the time.

mike brought up the idea of moving to hali next summer. i'm sure it won't work, especially if i want to keep a job, well, this job, but it made me really excited and it makes me not miss halifax as much when i tell myself there is a possibility that i could be back there soon, even only for awhile. and mike seems excited about it too. i guess we'll just have to see what happens.

mike has a car now. but it's a standard and i don't know how to drive it yet. maybe he will drive me to h&m this week. we're going to go to ottawa and quebec city and whereever the fuck we want!

ok. this is boring. i wanted to post pictures but the internet won't let me.

miss you.
