Grumpy, Grumpy, GRUMPY!

So as you can probably tell this entry is about the fact that I'm feeling particularly grumpy as of late. It started yesterday about mid day, for reasons I shall keep to myself, so then I fell asleep on my bed for about two hours and woke up and guess what...I was still grumpy. Damn. Normally a nap helps when I'm feeling bad but apparently not in this case. It is now the day after and I woke up feeling grumpy still, though now I really have no idea why...maybe it's just leftover from yesterday, who knows? Part of it I think has to do with me being stressed about school, mostly math actually, my other classes aren't so bad. However, I just found out that my two big written exams (I have one take home exam) are both at the very end of the exam period, one on the 26th and 27th of April. The reason that is a problem is because I'm wanting to fly out to ottawa as soon as I can to get to Curtis and get our fun summer started. Though of coruse I will be working as well! Also there's of course the whole trying to exercise more thing, which I've been trying to do, weekends are always the worst, they're the days when I generally have the most time and yet do the least, but at least I can do a bit during the week. Though this week we'll have to wait and see what happens because I took on some extra shifts and now have a bit less time. Speaking of work, it's been rather frustrating there as well. We've had ANOTHER cashier leave us without doing her two weeks and so the rest of us are stuck picking up the slack which is a curse and a blessing for me in one go. It's a curse because I'm lazy and don't really feel like working extra but it's a blessing because I really need the money because my three shifts a week aren't really providing me with the money that I need in order to save up for Ottawa. But at the same time that's my fault as well, I was rather liberal with using my Visa between paychecks this time around so I'm back to trying to not use it. So yes, that is my mini rant for now. I'll keep you posted as time goes by.

Cheers!

Shame on Me

Alright, I know it's been ages since I last blogged but to be honest since I've been home from Europe not a whole lot of exciting things have been happening, minus the whole Curtis moving to Ottawa (in 2 days by the way) thing. Though in addition to him moving to Ottawa, I have come to the conclusion that after I finish classes in spring I'm going to move out there with him for my summer off! How brilliant is that?! So I'm actually really excited for that. I think that it will be a good test run to see if we will be able to live together and be in each others space a lot more. I think that if we can manage that though, then we're set. I mean really, we've been together almost 4 years and right now thats the biggest hurdle we need to get over to see if we'll last lots longer (though I'm positive we will!) so it will be good!

Other than that, a lot of people that I work with are gone or leaving soon, all quitting which is lame! Ah well, such is life! But work is pretty good mostly, I still like my coworkers and we've got a few new people now so thats good!

My good friend Darcy is directing a play for the Victoria Fringe Festival and I'm really excited to hear how his opening night went! It's called Someone Who'll Watch Over Me, it's about 3 prisoners of war from very different backgrounds coming together through awful circumstances. At least that's what I think it's about! Either way I think it will be a really good play and I'm actually going to go and see it on Monday night so I'll get to see for myself :)

Last but not least school starts up VERY soon, and yet, not soon enough! I feel as though I've been waiting forever for it to get going but I don't start until the 9th so I've got a ways to go yet! Though I did actually go and get my student ID the other day and the picture is sooo much better than my old ones thank goodness, maybe because I actually TRIED to look decent in it! So I'm really excited to get that started, and I'm going back to school shopping on the 2nd with Yasmin!! Can't wait, we're going thrift store shopping and I'll probably grab a notebook or two whilst I'm out and then that way I don't have to bother with it later! :) Anyways, I think that's really all that I have to say for the time being!!

Cheers!
