time to crack down...?

So I see my 2 other better halves have not been able to blog recently, so I though I may as well let you guys know that we haven't fallen off the face of the earth or anything.

University is getting more overwhelming by the minute, as I have been watching the labs, quizzes, papers, and the unspoken everyday homework we are supposed to do just pile up.  Chemistry is well, tiring.  Enough said.  I think I am still trying to find my golden studying technique or hoping that I will be sitting in class one day and just have an epiphany.  Either way, I suppose the key to success is just staying on top of my classes and always being one step ahead.  If I can keep up to begin with. 

The partying is well, there.  I don't think there has been a night without a party in my tower come to think of it.  But the people here are pretty chill and I am really thankful for my room in the penthouse (6th floor) for when those crazy nights get a little too out of control.  Plus, I finally got my cable hooked up a week ago!! I love having a tv, despite the distraction it may be.  It is nice just to relax and unwind with one of my shows or just watch mindless tv to help you fall asleep.

So I guess I will leave you guys with that, hopefully there are a select few of you out there that are still following this blog!! To whoever is, thanks so much for continuing to support us!!

FROSH WEEK :)

First off, move in was quite painless and I'm loving my new room, and room mate.
Secondly, I'm super excited to tell you guys all about the last two days, which is the debut of my university career.
After moving in there were multiple activites for us to participate in. I ended up doing the Carleton University  Residence Scavenger Hunt  and BINGO (at which I've won a $25 gift certificate to Starbucks *woot*)
Today was the official opening of Frosh week. I'm doing the general frosh, and this year's theme is Circus. I'm on the Lions team. We had a BBQ to kick off this evenings events which included a Ravenpalooza, a peprally, a soccer game against Ottawa U and we beat them (2-0). I think that success was due to our extensive spirit and cheers. And lastly, a Much Music Video Dance Party :)

Super fun and I'm extremely exhausted so...

Blog about it later,

It's going going going....into the suitcase

Its that time of year again, prepping for school. This year I've decided to live in rez, so this should be interesting! I never knew packing could be so hard! I have so much clothes (like WAY too much!) and I'm torn between what I need and what I want to bring! It's all going in one large suitcase and I just spent the last 4 hours with my friend packing, and unpacking until I've finally got the basics down. Shirts, and pants are done but there's still so much more left like bedding, textbooks, school supplies......and the list keeps on going! This is going to be one exhausting job!

Blog about it later!

Today is a good day :)

Wow, so it has been ages since I blogged, and i know char already apologized.
So the weather has been GORGEOUS for the past week, and I have finished all of my research papers and the powerpoint presentation I have due tomorrow!!
It is such a good feeling to hand in a paper, knowing you can put it out of your mind forever (well, a few weeks at least).
And coming up in the following days (yes, days!!):

Grad Retreat: Friday
Victoria Day: Monday
Prom: Friday, May 28th (aka, no school cause no one shows up)

first week of June, random week of whatever
week of CPT's etc.
Grad Rehearsal & Brunch: Thursday, June 10th
Exams: Monday, June 14th - Monday, June 21st
Graduation Ceremony: Thursday, June 24th!!!!

and then.... that's it! no more high school.  I actually think I may cry now.  I have no idea what to feel, it's so damn close, but it feels like grade 9 started just yesterday.
And then, I'm off to Guelph, and Char and Fatima are staying in good old Ottawa.  For now...
But no matter what, we will always be best friends.
*tear* *tear*
