Waterloo offer.

I GOT AN OFFER FROM WATERLOO!
Waterloo is my last choice, and it's a conditional offer... but STILL.  My marks really aren't that impressive (let me tell you, I have a 43, 45, 51 and a 0 in my record) so of course I was SHOCKED.  It must've been my amazing bullshitting skills in my supplementary application... but WOOO.  I was totally not expecting an early acceptance from anywhere, so this makes me happy :) At least I know I'll be ending up somewhere next year.

English class doodling.


Instead of working on my literary essay on The Crucible worth 15% of my final mark, I doodled. Yeah. The next two weeks are going to be brutal, but I can't wait until it's all over and done with. Like every year, I'm swarmed with last-minute unit tests and assignments, culminating projects and exams, but this year, I also have to get all the supplementary applications handed in to Universities. My marks really count for something this year, so I have no choice but to focus and try hard. I guess I should start by actually doing work in class instead of slacking off. Lately, class time has been spent doodling, reading, or playing my DS. Sooo productive...

In other news: February 18th is officially "Family Day", a new statutory holiday in Ontario. Although there are a lot of complaints about it, I'm excited to get a random day off in the middle of February! Also.. I never really got into Canadian politics, but somehow, the U.S. elections have sparked some interest in me and I've been following them somewhat closely. It's odd.

Dip through the stars and wake up slowly.






Just got back from a week-long vacation at a winter resort with friends. It was beautiful, and I had a good time... but I'm glad to be home. I guess what I really learned during this trip is that as much as I love being around people, I still need some alone time and space. So really, I didn't take as many photos as I would have liked to, but there's still more to come.
