Ahh, memories...

Well today (Dec 11th) marks the last day of my term 1 classes. I survived. So far. School is challenging not so much academically but mainly emotionally if that makes any sense. Stress and depression has pretty much been my life these past 2 months and it's really getting to me. On the bright side, I'm doing very well in school and I really absolutely enjoy the course content! This school is VERY atypical of most and they really work you. Hard. I remember what fun was like... sorta... I've been staying @ school until 2:30 on my WEEKENDS!! That's right I haven't gone out in 3 weeks -- I have no time much less energy!

Currently I'm living pretty far from school (20-55 min commute) depending on time of day and traffic conditions on the SkyTrain (The SkyTrain is over packed hell. If you like feeling like prodded cattle ride the SkyTrian to school or work every day. It just gets to you... I yelled at a poor girl on the SkyTrain... I haven't been myself lately I've been wound up tight and now that I don't have homework for the first time in 2 months I hardly know what to do with myself... I cleaned my room spotless in preparation for my half-move on the 15th. (I rented a car and everything! I can't wait to drive!! =D ) I'm spending FAR too much money on eating out everyday and it's impossible to carry around food to eat at lunch (I have enough equipment to haul everywhere as it is) so I'm moving downtown!!! W0007!!! So pumped! I'll be living 3 blocks from school and that will hopefully begin to help me solve problems (And I pray won't create worse ones -- finance is a worry -- very complicated I can't get into it) It's very crowded in Vancouver and I put a lot of energy into finding a place this past week. I almost ended up without a home as my lease is up on the 15th and the place I was to move didn't work out so I was plunged into a mad dash to get an apartment and I think this all should work out (please God...)

Anyway I spent my newfound free time cleaning, eating and getting my place ready for easy packing when I have to pack wed/thurs. I have this huge folder filled with all my school stuff from Term 1 and stuck a few memories in it too... then I got playing and combined my curiosity about panoramic photos with my anticipated nostalgia and made some panoramas of my bedroom!!!

Without further ado,

For your viewing pleasure - my bedroom @ 12am.







I think this could be the start of something.. panoramic photos really intrigue me!

In other news I'm flying back to Edmonton on December 16th - 31st for the break and moving into my new place when I get back! I'll try and be less depressed and blog more frequently... Life is just... hard right now. Plenty of self-discovery and not everything I discover I like. This school is a major test of meddle... I'm hoping Term 2 is better!! I'm getting to know people outside my class and I think that's key to happiness here in Vancouver...

Anyway I apologize for distantness... it's just hard enough to keep up with life here much less life back home/other places...

Love you kids!
