I haven't posted in close to a month now but it's been super busy. I've written three exams in the last week and spent the two weeks before that getting ready to write them. I have one more exam tonight and then I'm done for the year, but next week I have two days of first aid/CPR training and I still need to find a job for the summer. That's what the next couple of days are going to be all about.

Other than school there have been a couple of birthdays, Erica turned 21 at the beginning of the month and it was a little bit of a shit show but it was a lot of fun none the less and then Monday was my Dad's 45th birthday, which was not a shit show but was none the less still fun. I took him out for lunch and then we were supposed to have dinner at home but we accidentally burnt the ribs and ended up having Chinese food for dinner.

That's honestly all that's really happened, my life is boring during finals.

Finally watching Charlie Bartlett and that is my favourite moment thus far. Kind of makes my life.

So everything is crazy busy again, tonnes of class etc. I'm trying to get work for the summer so that I have something called money. It would be a nice thing. Alicia thinks that she can get me some social work I just need to get my resume and cover letter to her. I did some volunteering with them last week which was a lot of fun, then there is an Easter party this coming Saturday.

St. Patrick's Day was a tonne of fun, I didn't have class so I volunteered in the morning and then started drinking when I got home and then we continued to drink until like two in the morning. It was stunning outside so we spent most of the afternoon sitting on the roof and then we wandered around London a little bit. 

This past weekend was Great Grandma Annie's 90th birthday so I went to Kingston with the family for that, it took up the whole weekend, 16 hours of driving in less than 48.

That's about it for now. 

So school is kind of a little crazy already.

The rest of the break was good, saw Avartar twice (it is phenomenal), got in some more visits, celebrated New Years with the family. Then came back to school and promptly got sick. That was fun. </sarcasm>

Getting back into the swing of things, I've gone to an Autism ON event that ended up being only one kid but it should get better as we get the word out to the toddler group parents, there are two more events at the end of the month as well so it should be fun. T3 starts this weeked, little bit of a cluster fuck on that part as I wasn't on any of the lists that the snowboarding co-ordinator had so I was completely out of the loop, eventually they got everything sorted out. Hopefully that wasn't why I wasn't chosen to co-ordinate it next year and I was passed over because I was going to only be there for a year.

Made my chocolate and JD cake for Patrick as payment for letting me use his parking spot for the term since Souvlaki Man decided that I couldn't use the spot right outside the apartment anymore, despite the fact that I cleared out all the snow for it. Patrick decided that he liked them enough that he wasn't going to share any of them with David. He scarfed down one and then he Erica and I spent the better part of 3 hours talking about sex. Yeah... it was interesting to say the least.

Reading week is looking like it's going to be awesome as well, we got the suite at Horseshoe for the week and the girls have all said that they're coming, I'm super excited.

I lived through exams! Don't know how well I did yet but I lived through them.

Last fews days of exams were a lot of fun, it included burning things and drinking, and Dmitri's, although not all on the same night.
What to expect from my break at my parents: food that's not rice noodles, dogs when we get to Kingston, cable, torment from my brother, and much more. I'm also supposed to get together with both Jen and Megan, I saw Megs at Thanksgiving but it's been over a year since I saw Jen so that should be good.

At anyrate, that's really all that's happening. Been watching a lot of the SciFi channel with my bro.

So yesterday after spending a good chunk of the last few days in bed due to migranes I found out that today I had to do my oral recitation for Medevil Language and Literature. The first 18 lines from The Canterbury Tales spoken in medevil english. Joy of joys. Worth 5% of my mark. Wonderful. Figured I was going to fail.

BUT I DIDN'T!

Apparently I did done good since I got perfect, which is awesome. I then discussed the general prologue with my TA (who still slightly terrifies me btw, he's just large and imposing and not english-nerdy looking at all) and then left campus for the day.

Other events in the last little while include: finally breaking down and buying a capo, shinannigans last Friday night, the Autism Ontario halloween party which was awesome, and conversations with the room mate which have been incredible.

School is still kicking my ass though.
