| I feel like writing I guess. I haven't slept well in days...and no sleep remedy seems to help; not sleeping pills, cough medication; camomille tea...nothing... I'm exhausted. But, I'm happy. I applied today for my first teaching position! Its been a good week, but a busy one. I did two extra workshops this weekend and got in all my workouts. So it was a good week all in all. Next week I imagine will be more stressful. Which likely means even less sleep. We'll have to see. | | |
| So yeah, my life rules! I may be living in Thunder Bay and its an icy hell, but things are great. I'm in my last stint of teacher's college, and well, I'm not overly stressed about it. I look around me and see my peers freaking out, but really its not so bad, we're almost done. And while there are loads of assignments and readings to do, its become apparent that you can try your damndest but you wont get that A....haha they don't give em out. So I decided to take it easier this term then the last. Yesterday was a bit of a reality check for me, I went to a job fair. I'm now preparing my teacher's resume, cover letter and looking for a career! Things are almost done. And in 48 day's I'll be moving back home! I get to see Justin in 3 weeks and until then I'm gonna keep myself busy working hard and going to the gym. When I move home we're getting a place together... I can't wait to have all our stuff in the same place... to live in the same city... I feel kind of bad for him right now, he's dog sitting my puppies while my parents are in the Dominican, which is turning out to be difficult since he has 12 hour shifts in Corunna! Anyways, I am, of course, avoiding my work. So, until next time... | | |
| I'm alive! Its been awhile since I've posted. I'm seein'g a bit of a trend here, something like every six months. Well, where was I? Right, the summer. This past summer was the best summer of my life! The park was great, my assistants were fantastic. Justin and I did a lot of camping and excursions. At the end of the summer Justin, my family and I spent four days at the cottage playing in the sun... it all came to an end and they waved me off onto the Chi Chee Maun to head to school. It was a long drive but I made it no problem in my miracle mazda (it tends to save my life). Last term was tough, doin' the whole 'teacher's college thing'. Kinda nutty, being away from home, not knowing anyone, missing everyone like crazy and having 12 courses to keep up with. I missed Justin like mad last term so he flew up to see me, and I flew down to see him (he suprised me and took me to Cirque du Soleil!). I got to do my placements back at home which was fantastic; the kids were great and it seemed as though I was able to just slip into the role. This past christmas break was amazing, I got tonnes of family time, mind you this meant jumping from family to family to family. I didnt want the break to end! I'm now back at school in the icy hell of Thunder Bay and counting the days till I get to go back home! 55 days and counting!!! Until next time. | | |
| Again, I'm still alive! School groups are eating me alive at the park, but I'm holding. I get my new assistants in less than two weeks, hired on two young men! hahaha... I've got one week till my first program and its not even written yet! Gah!!!! Stress levels are rising a wee bit with trying to get the Chalet ready and the programs. Oh yeah! Last weekend, Justin was the only one who didnt get chewed up by the rocks! hahahaa... He rocked the river and I was super impressed. I bailed over some shallow rocks and hit my head, shoulder and arm. My dad bailed at the top of a chute and took all the skin off his knuckles. At least Justin got to use his paramedic skills! hahahaa... it was so nice sitting by the fire and campin' out... We went fishing after dinner the one night and I caught 8 fish!!! haha we've been fishing a lot lately. It got to the point where Justin stopped fishing and waited for me to reel in another one (I can't take the hooks out... I usually get em kinda bad, like in the brain!). Hmmmm yeah I guess that's it for now. Right now I'm feeling calm, and missing Justin in a big way.... Until next time. | | |
| well, it's been a couple of weeks and it appears as though I am still alive! I've been running tons of hikes and getting ready for my upcoming programs. I'm looking forward to it. My stress levels are not overly high at the moment which I am very pleased about....just means my burn out will occur later in the season. I got my car and it's awesome, looks like a sporty little thing. Its a black mazda precidia and she's ohhh so pretty!....Yesterday I graduated from University and it was surreal, like where have the last four years gone!? I've got one more year of school and then its the real world for me. Right now I'm feeling excited since Justin and I are going on a white-water kayaking trip this weekend!!! Woot woot! hehehe I'm hoping we both make it out alive...hahhaaa.... last weekend we went to Canada's wonderland and the bass pro shop...super fun! Anyways I've got some work to do!!! Until next time... | | |
