but anyway today's exam was so brutal...literally writing for 3 horus straight.. i probalby wrote liek 5 essays... like sersiouly non stop..and the worst part was everything was SOOO repetitive.. so not only was i writing for 3 horus straight.. i WAS WRITING THE SAME DAMN THING OVER AND OVER AGAIN... ugh.. last few questions i was literally thinkgin "I JUST WANT TO FINSIH I DONT EVEN CARE WHAT IM WRITING" ... ughhh!! after we all left and hung around .. eveyrone pretty much came out of the room looking like they didnt know what hit them... "my hands are dead" or "wtf was that exam all about?" was one of two things that everyone FIRST said lol.... i remember thinking to myself while writing ... "wow im gonna kick the shit out of this prof" cuz there was so much writing.. 8 questions...and i probalby answered like 1.5 pages EACH question.... KILL ME....good thing my next two exams are all MC..... coloring time :) i'd rather read a bunch than write a bunch...

anywho, went to our LAST ITM+lawrence-mike LUNCH TODAY!!! :(( our last official SCHOOl lunch that is...julian will be close by so it'll be okay..awee and last night during our group itm chat... awee brought back a lot of good ryerson memories.. lol like TAN....whom i've never met but seen plenty....and hes disgusting.....and has madd greasy hair...and BOBBY HAAHA who can forget bobby? that fat ass of a jerk...ugh still wanna punch him in the face...and ahh.. mackenzie...who wouldnt let us eat......lol and those pranks that were pulled...well not to omany..but several BIG ones... loll aiya :( good times... makes me realize that these are the guys..my colleagues ...that i'll be in touch with my whole life..

changes

damn things are changing QUICK.. who wouldve knew that everything was gonna be happening in a matter of days!!! =S some good, some not so good...some of my family's going though kind of a tough time right now :( thanks to those that understand and show care... :) just a couple sentences show me that there are such genuinely nice people out there :) makes me happy! ^_^

im so glad i just have to study for 3 exams right now..first two might be okay... last one SHOULD be easy... keeping my fingers crossed..then im pretty much gone for like half of december!!! that just means one thing.. im gonna be poor as shit for the new year! yeahhhh owned..for me :( meh oh well!.. at least i'll start off the year nice and relaxed and tanned (especially and hopefully that is)

..anyway hopefully she'll stay strong and start off fresh for the new year! i think its not a matter of how many friends you have, but how those friends treat you and how they unconditionally care about you... i know i'll always be there for her :) it just sucks seeing her like this :(

everything always works itself out in the end.. keep your head up.

just a bit of shopping

YAYY!!! i know i shouldnt be..BUT who can pass up DEALS? i bought a couple things ONLY because they were on sale tho...

FIRST, i bought a dress off www.revolveclothing.com because for a few days it was FREE SHIPPING/FREE RETURNS anddddd also an additional 30% off everything!!! SO i bought this baby:

loveeee the zipper...AND the pockets....i think thats the latest trend these days.. zippers :) the dress was 44 retail...with 30% off came out to about 30 bucks... sweeettt deal huh??

next, i decided to check out www.gojane.com and see if there were any cheap boots.... cuz u know..STILL NEED BOOTS .. Sooo i bought these babies:yeahh they're probably shit quality.. but oh well...they're 26 bucks online..BUT again, i found a coupon code online and i save 20%!! so the boots are really 20 bucks!!! this time i had to pay for shipping..but thats alright since i split it with someone...so yea :D i hope i dont get TOO owned with the current currency rate... anyway!! MUST STOP SPENDING.....esp if i plan on shopping like a madwoman in december :)

aaahhhhh article after article after article...studying for this is ... soooo BORINGGGG...ugh so many terms..and its not like...a textbook..its like a course pack comprised of a billion academic journal articles......aka boring 20 page articles....... UGHH this is do or die.....the most important course of the PROGRAM..... better do good....its on tuesday :S so scurred.....

and then take a break of course by going to hammy to partttty and celebrate the birthday offffffff my jeffy. ugh can't wait..gonna get SMASHED...maybe..lol anywho, i just wanna thank some people for helping me make choices that much easier for me. if you're gonna allow that kinda shit to happen, then i'm gonna make the smart choice to avoid all that. grow up already will you? thanks! im gonna have fun next couple of weeks!! ahh.. sometimes im glad i just don't care about anything..someone once told me that i'm way too passive..meaning i never let anything bother me and not really "care" about anything... honestly, is that really a bad thing? i dont have time for other people's opinions..i base my choices on how i am treated and i do whats best for me. so really, you're doing it to yourself... living life stressfree (minus stress from school of course) is the way to go....why let these things affect you if its just gonna add stress to your life? totally unnecessary... :) happy november everyone! i know mine wont be too happy...aka assignments GALORE...also birthdays galore! janice and tommy's birthday on friday...gonna be funnnn with everyone there... and saturday lisa's birthday... woohoo!!!! lisa's so smart. ask her what she is and she'll tell you she's smart ;)

crunch time

ahhh..november is the worst..my google calendar is filled with assignment and project due dates... its going to be hectic... especially with TWO ..oops i mean THREEE..no wait FOURRRRR very important birthdays that i must attend to...its going to take a lot of dedication! *sigh* but it will be well worth it :) ugh.. aka i will fail my exam fo sho... effffffffffffff i can't afford do anything else but celebrate those birthdays this month.. i have to i have to i have to.... aahh


anyway, i think people need to calm down...take a step back..and stop hating the world and blaming everyone else for what happened. before you assume that everyone excluded you...find out your facts because thats not what happened at all...also, no one is obligated to do anything..at least in this case he wasnt..and it sucked that it had to go that way but oh well..what can you do right? so hey, take a chill pill! its not the end of the world and there are going to be endless opportunities!!! be positive!! :D

i hope everyone had a good halloween! i went to the raptors home opening...and then just played mj the rest of the night..hahaaha how fobby of me...but wahtever...kept it low key! to this day i have never gone out to celebrate halloween yet :( next year...i hope lol
