the sky IS falling

DCFC0175

Chicken Little and I chatted last night.  The sky is falling despite what most folks say.  The school work to be done is still in a large pile on the floor.  I'm waiting for it to call to me, because i have zero motivation for that.  Okay, that's a tiny lie, I have motivation I just feel like crap. And my cat is sitting on my notepad of paper which has a list of what I need to do.  In other news, plans for CR are coming along quite nicely.  With the exception of Apr 30 - May 4 when I have no where to stay.  Maybe a tent on the beach.  So long as the dengue mosquitos stay FAR away from me. I do not want to get sick again this summer.  Though, I've pretty much conceeded already, it's gonna happen, and it's gonna suck. 

The realization of the total bill for my education is surmounting.  Rather large, and continuing to grow.  But if I can only accumulate half my student loan each year, or find myself a scholarship, then maybe I'll only have to worry about his $30,000+.  Silly boy.  Unless we find another tuition fee rolling our way.  I doubt that. You're the *best* Stephen Harper.  Health Science will satisfy me for awhile, I hope.  If not all the studying of Biology should.

ohmy!schoolissooverwhelming

Things are C R A Z Y !! I think every assignment and midterm I have are in the next three weeks. And some classes have 6 assignments, 2 quizzes and 2 midterms. So much for life outsida class.  Other then that, I think I've finally decided that I want to go into Health Science, but not for the science, for the arts.  Honestly, its me we're talking about. Science? Ha ha ha.  Well, the words still out, we'll see how the midterm goes, hopefully better then my first quiz.  But back to health science, I'm really interested in the AIDS epidemic worldwide, and all that goes with that. (Ahem, wrap it up kids)  Hopefully everything goes well with transfer credits, associate degrees, diplomas and global stewardship. 

Oh yeah, I'm back on Dundee Street. Are you hardcore. .?  Hmm.

Costa Rica.. Soon enough.

The red twall bed and me.

If only I could find my ipod I could be listening to something other then my brothers awful techno music, but its not the music so much as the base through the wall.  Oh the joys of being back at home.  Things seem a little more promising but time will tell. 

Went to the royal columbian to see Ali's gramma; its awful to see people so desolate and depressed.  Shes getting better, and no blood clots, woohoo.  And then there's his mom's surgery on the 1st. 2007 has gotten off to an incredibly weird start. However, it was like Jackie said, you know when things are going wrong, and you just know that its not going to work out??-- I don't have that feeling right now.  I think things will work themselves out. 

I've got one more box to get rid of here, and then I'm half way done moving. Gotta go back to the old place and get all that shit dealt with. Its hard though, because all I want to do is curl myself up into a little cocoon and stay warm til the win'ers over. Bears have the life I tell.  Living up in the mountains away from all the bullshit city life.  No drama, eats simply bear eat bear.  Maybe if they ate most of the humans.. Or well, maybe if that stupid meteor didn't hit mexico some what like 65mybp then them dinosaurs would still be roaming the Earth.  Oh evolution, how i love environmental biology. Can you say steep learning curve?

She's out on the highway, she's got a homemade sign it says.. go ahead try and figure what my future looks like..

Woohoo.. classes started on monday.. bright and early 1030am, not so bad considering theres no labs or seminars this week and my geography prof is away. Off to a slow start one might say. In other news, moving home of all places, for awhile.  I debate between staying there til I'm done school or incuring a truck load of student debt. 40000.00 is a lot of money spent on life for the next three years, when really I could simply donate it, or take it with to my next foreign destination, and do something swell with it. You know feed some kids, buy some books or chalk or rice, whatever the hell they eat in all them OTHER countries.  Oh ignorance is bliss.  If only my view of the world was limited to the narrow tunnel of north american folk. But really, the things I could do with 30,000.00...do some serious damage and make a small difference to a few people.  I think thats the plan anyway.  Other then Costa Rica this summer.  Yeah language school, seminar credits AND vacation. Sweet deal. That could change, lifes been doing that a lot lately, surprises, big surprises.  "Be the change you want to see in the world" - some important dude said that i think - right?

its been awhile since i've been here. but that would be the fault of the oh-so-wonderful education system. needless to say, i'm done until january. this may have well been my worst semester academically speaking since.. maybe grade ten? yikes. i guess thats what happens when you take a year off, spend some time in another country and move, twice. regardless i'm happy in my restlessness, waiting for a better year to start though not counting the days.  so i sit amist piles of my belongings, all in search of a home.  textbooks, movies, large apple juice cartons from the sickness the other day. if i had the energy and the time...

Work starts in 3.5 hours, all i can do is think of anything else to do other then that, re-arrange furniture, holiday decor..ah well, at least the house will be purdy..
