Its 2012!

I can't believe its 2012. Where does all the time go? I have started my second semester of university! I just finished my first week and I am not looking forward to the upcoming months, I am going to be drowning in work. The projects are brutal. One of my goals this year is to keep up with all of the readings. It is so difficult because its so boring.

Things have been getting a lot better without my ex-boyfriend. I think about him so much less now. I went out friday night to the winter kegger at a frat house on the University of Toronto campus. I was hoping to meet at least 1 nice guy, but I didn't meet anyone that I liked. It was definitely worth it though. I haven't gone out in FOREVER and I really need to start putting myself out there if I want to meet new people!

The party was crazy, it was exactly like how you see it in movies. It was a big house with huge pillars, then there was a sign on that said the name of the frat in greek. The beer was disgusting and the music was awful, but whatever. I'm glad I went!

Things are going well so far, I hope this year has a lot of good things in store for me. I want to take advantage of my freedom and have fun!

The first two pictures are at the kegger, then the last one is my two friends and I in the lab at school.

Only 4 days of high school left!

Its hard to believe, but in only four days I will be done high school forever! Its bitter sweet. I don't want to have to grow up! But on the other hand, I'm going to have so much more freedom in university and things are going to be so different. I won't be treated like a little kid anymore.
This kind of scares me. Next thing I know I'll be paying my own bills!
Its ISU time, so I have been extremely busy working on them. On monday I have two presentations... I am not looking forward to that.
High school was such a journey. When I entered grade nine, I was an insecure, unsure, little girl. Leaving high school I've grown so much. Honestly, I'm almost a different person. I never thought I would be the person I am today. I've met so many people that have changed me in so many ways. It is so crazy to think about how much things change.
I can't wait until summer so I can just relax and have fun with my family, friends, and Connor!

Rainy Days!

The weather has been quite depressing out lately. Its been so gloomy and raining non stop for the past few days! Its also supposed to rain all week. Hopefully that means that good weather is coming!

I have so much homework I should be doing, I have like 3 ISU's and things are just so stressful. Things with Connor have been going very well for the past few days, so thats a good thing. It was like we were in our honeymoon stage again :)

I'm going over to Connor's house today and were going to this restaurant in the village, its really cute! Its like a little hotel sort of thing. It will be romantic.

This week I'm doing the 30 hour famine, all of the proceeds go to World Vision. So far I have $52 to donate! Fundraising is so much harder than last year! Last year I went fundraising door-to-door for 2 hours and I got $117. It seemed like every other person would donate, which is such a fantastic thing! But this year, we went out for 3 hrs and got $12! How terrible is that? It seemed like nobody wanted to help us out. People were so rude too. Oh well, at least I raised $52. I should be proud of myself.

On Tuesday I'm going with my English Literature class to Stratford to go see King Arthur. Were going for the whole day, so its kind of exciting! I have no idea what King Arthur is about, but hopefully its good.

School starts on Wednesday... Its coming so fast! School is the last thing I want to think about right now. This semester I have 4 classes, which is going to be extremely hectic. I want to be on honor roll this semester.

Connor and I are going downtown tomorrow because I want to buy a pair of lululemon pants, do some other shopping, then I want to go out for dinner. It will be nice to be downtown. I love taking the train, its so peaceful.

I worked out pretty hard at the gym today, so that makes me happy.

Tomorrow is February! One of my wishes for February is to lose 5 lbs. Its going to happen! Oh and I want to have a wonderful Valentines day. But I know that will happen, because my marvelous boyfriend will make sure of it. I wish everyone a lovely February!
