I’m sick!!! On finals week, of all weeks, I get sick. Boo. Mother Nature, your timing is crap.

I just wrote my English midterm. It went fairly well, except for the fact that I’m crap at analysing literature and finding the theme. Luckily, it’s only worth 10% of my final mark. Phew.

I’m just biding my time until I can catch the bus back to res.

I have nothing going on tomorrow, a write-to-deadline on Friday, and then a weekend to chill (possibly with Thayne?? or at the illScarlett concert.). Research Skills exam is on Monday. Courtney & Megan said theirs was easy, but they have a different teacher than me. I am a little nervous for that test because we haven’t had one in that class yet and we only have 10% of our mark in that class. Urg.


One Week In

My classes have bee a little easy so far. Yesterday in Foundations of Composition all we did was read the syllabus and talk about our summers. Then today in Reporting I we read the syllabus, interviewed another person and presented them to the class, and watched Shattered Glass, about the American journalist for the New Republic who was found to have fabricated more than 50% of his stories. Very interesting.

I need to find someone to hang out with tonight! I am going to be so bored.

On Sunday Auntie Val and Darren are coming up to see Body Works, and are going to pick me up. I’m so excited that I’m gonna be able to see the Smiths more that I’m living up here in Edmonton.

On another note, Maureen and I (a girl I met in my Reporting I class) established that 90’s Disney movies are the best. Fo Sho,
