Well I've survived the semester. I've passed everything as I know it so far. One final exam on the 16th and I'm done for good. Now the dilemma is whether I do the assignment or not. Right now I've got a 96% out of only 50% of the year's work. Now if I don't do the assignment I'll have an 86% ... is it worth the risk? I still have that final to do that's worth 25% .... hmmm .... the dilemmas I face..... Then the annoyances of the dreams are back again. I can't say that they are completely annoyances though... it seems to be only me they are bothering, and I guess they don't bother me that much. As much as I hate to admit it, they are kinda interesting...they bring a smile to face to think of them and they really are harmless dreams. Perhaps I'll keep them in mind for a somewhat rainy day to brighten things up inside a little. Summer is not going to be as exciting as I thought it would be. At least it's not starting out that way. Already I'm beginning to dislike the way things are run at Beaver Tails. But I guess I'll just have to deal. As long as I can cover my bus passes for the upcoming year and a little pocket money to have during the semester I'll be okay. So in reality I need about $1000 to last me until I get another job next summer. But on the plus side I'm in the program of my choice: Specialization in Communication and Journalism. This means that I will no longer have the chance to experience University in Ottawa at Carleton. I will not have the chance to experience the dorm life away from home, or be able to live on my own and struggling through University. This also means that it will be a great burden off my parents' shoulders ot no have to fork up $14 000 a semester for me to go to school. There are pluses to going to Concordia, but there would've been some pretty neat pluses to going away for school. Right now I am content in staying in my little town by the river to take advantage of my little life I lead. I'll take advantage of the summer months, the job I have, the frineds I keep, and my boyfriend I have. I'll cherish the time with all these people and my family knowing that I will have many more months and years to spend with them in the future. So that when the time arises once again; the time I'll have to go away for some reason or another I can actually leave behind those I have spend time with recently and not be sadly missing out on things with them.

I seem to have all the luck. I have an exam on Thursday, work non-stop from Friday to Monday, then fall sick Wednesday night. ;-( I have one lousy day of bumming around the house, then I'm bedridden sleeping for about 2-3 days straight. This sucks. I'm now on Pencillin and have to see the same stupid doctor again on the 31st. Hopefully by then I'll be able to swallow without gagging on the huge tonsil that's swollen so big in my throat. ARGH!!
