Wth?

Holy crap, I am way too busy for this. Did Paul try to add anyone else on facebook?

Winding down...

So September has finally worn down to a close.
I'm happy to say that I am on good terms with ALL my roommates (that's right, all of 'em) and that the going gets good when the good are .... good?
either way, things are turning up... a few more days until TURKEY WEEKEND!!! Then I get to go home... see my family... see my friends... relax.... maybe go for a hike? I hope so...
Its funny, being homesick... I thought that I wouldn't miss anyone and that'd I'd be back in a couple weeks... but man... I really miss everyone... I want to see as many people as I can this weekend...

but.. If I don't see you... (as Jim says:) Good Afternoon, Good Evening and Good Night.

After Frosh, the UW triathalon.

Well, Frosh week is finally over, it seems to have taken forever.

It's Monday, and I just had my first class, Chem 120. My proffessor, Robert Le Roy, is really interesting. He went through this whole talk about what science does for the world, with himself as the subject. He's a survivor of cancer, went through being a paraplegic, to walking, to having a creeping paralysis, which is where he is right about now. He's a loud robust guy with a 'under the chin' beard, and I think I like him.
Pretty much all we did was cover what we are doing in the class, and OMG my final exam is worth 60% of my final mark.

60%!

So, I feel a little down about that, and I'll probably be studying for 3 months before my exam and become a total recluse, but, hey...

Frosh week was good, but I don't think I could do it again. So much... everything!
I met my roomie, Justine, pretty much first when I moved in. She's nice and I'm sure we'll get along fabulously, like we have been so far, but I'm not sure if we'll end up being close friends. She's a real party girl.

I went home for the weekend, and skipped out on the Toga party, I was way to exhausted anyways. The Monte carlo, our semi formal was good though, and I met a whole bunch of new people there.

So far I've met about 2 people that I could actually consider friends here at UW, or maybe one... Nadia and J. They're pretty cool people, most of the time we just hang around in the lounge and play games or whatever. Our favourite is Scruples, the game of moral dilemma. Sounds strange but it's pretty rad. It's obviously really relaxed here at UW, but not for long if 1/2 of us have a 60% exam too...

I'll try to post every week, but I've been pretty busy running around and such...

With much love and no further adieu,

Heather.

crisp.

i came across this today as I was walking through the windy plains in afghanistan.

i smelt them before i saw them.

cuff me in irons, mate

So I got booked yesterday by the cops.
For being, as the ticket says: "person under 19 years having liquor".


$125.

There goes food.


Granted, I have been living and partying in and around the Toronto area for quite some time, and they aren't as anal compared to the folk down here, so walking around with an unconspicuous bottle containing a delicious mix of apple juice and vodka(its really not that bad) would not be a problem in the slightest! I guess this was one party I missed out on that taught me a valuable lesson...

ST. KITS SUCKS! GET PLASTERED AT HOME!

Apology for the Kenya Series

Hey guys - this is Gina if you didn't read the whole series through. Just wanted to apologize for the ten frikkin' entries for that one journal entry day. It's just that I wrote the whole thing, then pressed 'post' only to discover that it couldn't handle my mojo. So I had to break it up into ten pieces because I couldn't give it the satisfaction of beating me (and besides, all that effort would've gone to waste). So please read the few posts behind my huge Kenya one!

And yeah, this is all just one day. =]

Kenya 귀역해 Part X

Some kids asked me to walk them to the toilet while I was sitting outside the sanctuary writing in my journal. They were only the first in a long procession of impatient bladders. I developed serious rock-hard leg muscles traipsing up and down the stone path. After saying goodnight to the last of them, I peered back at the sky and noticed the absence of the orange blot. Turns out they had rain after all, while we didn't recieve a single drop.

I entered the tent I shared with Sarah, Mary, and Ruth and crawled into my sleeping bag. I didn't worry about musquitos tonight.
