Reminder.

I was reminded today that people may actually read this occasionally, and that I should update things that are going on with me. First and foremost, I AM LEAVING FOR THAILAND TOMORROWWWWWWW!!! I just spend 4 hours running errands (since I leave everything to the last minute). I only have to pack. Holy S*** it's so close!!!! I will not be getting any sleep tonight because of butterflies dancing the night away in my belly.
side note: please please please have my bag delivered to me both ways... this is my worst fear.

Other than that, there are some other exciting things to update. I left BP yesterday after work and was like SEE YOU IN A MONTH BITCHESSSSS. Man it felt so nice to know that I don't have to go to work for an entire month. Who knows, I may be convinced to stay in Asia for some extra traveling. I would prefer to be rich and experienced than broke and unexperienced. I just read that over, and it is so obvious, but I'm incredibly lucky to be the first option.

That draws back to another exciting thing that happened a couple weeks ago, I GRADUATED. After 4 1/2 years of hard work (kind of) and dedication (kind of), I walked out of War Memorial with a $60,000 piece of paper. It definitely feels good. Unfortunately, I heard from my program I applied to for the fall and was waitlisted. I still have faith that I will be getting in, but I may not find out until July. Eek.

Finally, last week Greg and I went to Montreal. Other than getting pulled over after crossing the border (damn frenchies) and getting a $500.00 ticket, the trip was good. The weather was freezing, but we went to O'Noir. I have been dying to go for a while, and it was definitely the highlight of the mini-holiday. It's a restaurant that you eat in complete darkness because you are being served by the blind. So FRIKKIN cool. We were eating with our hands since we obviously couldn't see the food itself. I recommend getting the SURPRISE meals, because you have to figure out what it is based on taste alone. SO COOL! We also did some shopping, drank at a couple neat cafes and drank Italian hot chocolates -- and walked around Old Montreal and toured Notre Dame. I snuck upstairs where I wasn't allowed in a church because I am so rebellious like that. We went to the Museum of Contemporary Art and argued about the color blue until Greg stopped talking to me, lol. He didn't think it was very funny. I think I won the debate. (I know you are rolling your eyes right now).

Now I have to pack away a month worth of stuff. I am not looking forward to the flight(s), but should be entertaining with the people I am going with. I hope to have a unreal time. I actually know I am going to have an unreal time. I have gone tanning the last couple days, and I CANNOT wait to be in summer weather again. Unfortunately, it is actually summer there which means it will be around 45C everyday with the humidex. Yeehaw.

Internet costs about a dollar an hour there, so I may leave quick updates during my trip. But I plan on writing all the cool things that happen everyday so I can come back and write about them for the world to see. The question now arises where I am going next... if I don't get into school, maybe Australia for a couple years???

PEACE OUTTTTTTT!!

Thought.

We only run from things that only truly scare us.
