Tuesday Two...

I have not been very ambitious lately, but here are just two things...

1) I really do love that my school does not have substitute teachers. Three of my classes this week have been cancelled, two of which tests were scheduled for. Extra study time! (But somehow I always end up on the computer. Isn't it funny how that works?)

2) Three more days of this cold winter weather pour moi! I am off to Mexico on Friday evening for a week long vacation! Very exciting.

Hope it's a good week!

New Year Full of Adventure

Time flies. It has been over two months since I posted last, and so much has happened in those two months.

I had exams at the beginning of December. That was pretty stressful and a really hectic time. After exams I worked up until Christmas, and it was really busy. I guess people have to eat meat for Christmas! Haha.

Christmas was really good. It was good to finally relax for a few weeks after a month and a half of craziness. It was good to spend time with family and eat tons of good food. I went out to James's aunt and uncle's farm out in Russell for a few days between Christmas and New Years and went to Asessippi for a day. It was pretty fun, but it was pretty cold. It was good to visit with his cousins and his grandparents and eat more good food.

Between Christmas and New Years, one of my friends had her 18th birthday party. Eight of us went to Bucaccino's and had a great time all together.

I spent New Years mostly with James. We went to the Moose game in the early evening, and then headed back to the Postma residence for some eats and some tv. Later in the evening, we went to Kim and Nick's house and joined the festivities there. We played some games and just caught the tail end of some count-down on tv. It was really fun.

And that brings me to now. I'm back in school and into the normal routine of things. School is just the same old. I'm trying to work really hard these last two terms to boost my marks up as high as possible. Although I have applied and been accepted into the University of Winnipeg, I still want to get my marks up as high as possible. I have been accepted into the science program and more specifically into biology. I'm pretty excited to go to school for something that I actually want to study in the fall. A few of my friends have also been accepted into the U of W, so that should be fun.

Next is Mexico for Reading Week. I cannot wait! I'm so excited to go. This is thanks to James's parents being happily married for 25 years!!
After that comes the 18th birthday, the day after which a good friend from Germany comes to visit! I can't wait to see her!

Anyways, I hope you enjoyed my random ramblings!

Accomplished.

It sure does feel good when things get done.

Homework.
Cookies.
Vacuum.

Done. All ready for tomorrow. Feels great!

Beginning of the End.

Although I am quite sick, I have survived my first last, day of high school. I have met all my teachers and they all seem pretty nice. The school is still the same old, but it's good to be back. It beats working.
I am glad to be back in school. Just one more year, then I can focus on what I want to do for a career and with the rest of my life. I can't wait to graduate. Should be good. I'm still not exactly sure what I want to do in university, but I have a few ideas. I originally wanted to go into human ecology, but I'm not so sure about that anymore. A few things tweeked my interest today, so we'll see where that goes.
Anyways, I don't really have any more energy to write, so I'll leave it at that today.

Enjoyed.

It is quite enjoyable when you wake up with a huge headache, later to find out that it's cloudy and cold outside.

But just as you think that your day is going to be a bad one, it takes a turn for the better. You take some tylenol and have a nice big glass of water just to see the sun peak out through the clouds.

It was a good day: 10 degrees to 23, a massive headache to none at all, and a nice visit with a cousin and her adorable little man.

Now I await the arrival of my boy.

Splendid.

The Latest Purchase

I love it. It's worth it all.

Now I can't wait to go back to school and give it a good work out. Exactly one month from today I start. I feel a bit weird saying that I really want to go back, but it's my last year of high school and I can't wait for it to be over. I'm really looking forward to it so I can move on and study something that interests me. Not entirely sure what that will be yet, but I have an idea. Hopefully something will come up...

Too cold!

Will this summer get any better? They say the winter is supposed to be three degrees warmer. Woohoo. Big deal. How about some warm weather now?
August is not supposed to have evening/morning temperatures below ten degrees.
Is it just me being a complainer, or is this weather a little bit ridiculous for August?
