i have to tell you!! the weirdest thing i got for Christmas this year? a doggie DNA testing kit (from my boyfriend’s lil bros) so we can finally see what her mix really is. her papers say she is Rhodesian Ridgeback and Rottie but we all believe that there is Pitty in there somewhere. Pitbulls are illegal in Canada so we’ll just stick with the Rhodesian/Rottweiler mix,...

i wish we had turkey leftovers so i could make some soup with them. today is definitely a soup day. i love soup and pasta.
i’m procrastinating shoveling the driveway outside by looking at soup recipes. i need to get cracking soon because today is a busy, social day. H. is coming around 12 or 1 to hang out before we head to the camp reunion. i’m so excited to see everyone.
today is...

and my gpa for the fall is...!

i’m not usually one to whine about my grades but when i’m THIS close to getting a 4.0, i’m destined to be annoyed!
so close… but yet so far away.

i just finished a reunion from my program last year. as much as i loved last year (hahaha), i am really glad it is over with. i don’t miss it or want to go back to this moment in my life. i struggled with some hard stuff and don’t want to relive it. i have moved onto a different point in my life and i am happy with where i am.
how do you shake off the dust of your past without hurting...
more referrals. thanks doc.
good ol' holiday rant.
have i even mentioned how much i want to strangle myself when its the holiday season? (not a physical strangle, but more metaphorically.) the season of lights, trees, red, green, parties, cookies and gift wrap. where people spend too much on presents that are not needed. yeah, that’s my issue. i’m so sick of the holidays and everyone rushing around to stores with fake snow frosted onto...

i had such a peaceful evening. i spent a lot of time just catching up on assignments and finishing them ahead of time instead of rushing them. now i just have 3 finals and i’m done. i just sat in starbucks with a coffee, my macbook and some music. i wrote christmas cards, finished logs and such. it was wonderful.
and when i got home i had a phone call from face. it was fun to talk to him...
