gah! finished my second exam today!!! just one take home due and my marketing one left to go!!! SO EXCITED..these 4 years went by SO fast and i can honestly say i had a better time in univ than in high school... met much better friends that i can probably call real LIFE friends... :)
on the other hand theres this stupid show on MTV ..reality show ... of course. called College life... and these kids think its gonna be SOO DIFFERENT... maybe it is in the states...but..who nkows... they hype it up so much.. and they look so OLD...!!! *sigh* do i wish i was a freshman again? nahh..well sorta.. :(

Officially starting the countdown!
28 more days!!!!!
GAh.. I can't believe it. LOL hmm yeah.... all just words. To be honest, this whole "i'm done post-secondary school. i'm done all schooling. been in school for 16 years and now its all over"..... all hasnt hit me yet.. we'll see how this countdown progresses.. and you'll be able to read as i go along..
here's what i predict, im just gonna get angier and more stressed with stupid people...but then i'll shortly realize...it's the last i'll ever have to deal with it... i'm could SLACK off and not study as hard...but knowing me, i'll study just the same, and just slack a little bit. we'll see whata happens
so far, though, i know i have 1 small assigment left, 1 term project due..(a website i'm working on) and a presentation for my year end project... and then exams... not too bad. i think i can do it without too much stress....
all i gotta think about is how excited i will be for my trips!!!

so i basically rush out.. im on the bus by about 9:15-9:20 (yea i get ready FAST...) and i get downtown by 10:15.... i went to the classroom to see if he was lingering around..he wasnt there :( so my next alternative was to find his office hours and go there... thankfully angela looked up where and when he was teaching next..and THANKFULLY he was teaching a class today at 10-12.. so i rushed over..and here i am now..sitting outside his next classroom.. its 11:03am.. and im waiting for him to call a break so i can slip in and hand it in. and explain that im from his previous class...or wait till 12 and wait till hes done lecturing altogether... UGH..
oh yea... i'm sure most of you know about my giant paper clip hanging on my bag?? well yeah.... i heard it drop at finch station :(:( and i couldnt turn back and look for it.. i couldnt risk it :(:( SO LONG GIANT PAPER CLIP :(:(

happy 2009!
new years resolutions?? don't really do that.. who actually follows them? but i guess if i had to choose, they'd be:
- exercise and lose weight? (just like everyone else)
- eat healthier
- continue to be carefree, not worrying about what other people have to say about me behind my bad
- be a better person
- put the past in the past and live for the future
- find a job
- save money for grad trip
