So it’s been awhile since I made a new post. I really don’t have that much to talk about since that time that I called the consulate and found out I should be going home in September. I’ve been studying, playing World of Warcraft and working occasionally. I got two shifts next week, which is good because I only had one last week. I sort of feel like the job was misrepresented to me as to the amount of hours, but whatever. It’s only for another month or so. Tomorrow is the start of our employee buying spree and I’m going to keep it down to a low roar I think. Not going to go crazy and get like $200 worth of stuff. I just can’t justify it, as much as I love the stuff there. I’m just hoping that the consulate wasn’t joshin’ me and that I’m here for another few months. That would stink a little bit, since I would need to buy more clothes and bah – it would just suck. Although I don’t think I could stand getting so few hours after I’ve finished up my distance course.
As for the course, I’m trucking along. I just finished up my first essay and submitted that. I’m hoping that it’s up to snuff and I won’t have to rewrite it like I did the last one. Usually when I think I did a crappy job I get an A so maybe I will this time too, although any pass mark would be fine with me. I just really want to get this over with. I’ve started making notes for my second essay and I’m thinking that while I wait for my materials to come in that I ordered, I will start reading stuff for my third essay so I will know what materials to order. If it didn’t take so long for them to come in, it wouldn’t be so bad. A week or so is quite some time. I only have until the 20th to hand in my second essay; well I would like to anyways, since that is the day that my tutor leaves for her vacation. Tomorrow I have to call Acadia back and figure out how long I have before my marks absolutely need to be in so that I can graduate. My tutor has been really helpful and accomodating for me convocating on time – which is really nice of her, I think. A lot of tutors would say, well that’s your problem. So I’m going to try my best to get everything in on time for September 8th. I’ve got a little bit less than a month, so here we go.
It’ll be nice to have everything here wrapped up and be in Texas. I would LOVE to be able to there for the weekend of the 17th because Mike and I are invited to a meet-up with Brian & his wife, Lisa, and Mark, and that same weekend I’m invited to a wedding shower for our friends – and they are probably both in Dallas so it works out pretty awesomely. Unless of course I get stuck here as usual. I’m tempted to call the consulate again to find out when my appointment is, but I don’t want to be a bug. The next few weeks will be more of the usual I expect; studying and then playing WoW whenever I get bored of that. I’m trying not to travel too much because the gas money is killing me. I’d be happy if I only had to fill up once more before the big move. Anyways, tomorrow should be a fun day as long as I manage to keep my spending down to a minimum. Nice wish – but I’ll try! I’m hoping to have Montreal news really soon, so we’ll see how that goes. Stay cool, everybody!
