Well Miss Dayna...
So to celebrate exams and first semester being over..Dayna and I decided we should cater to the occasion. We made some yummy cocktails at her apartment (sex under the boardwalk..and some of our own concoctions...raspberry and watermelon liqueur peach schnapps and vodka is amazing by the way we renamed it jollyrancher) and after about 3 for me and like 5 for her we were starting to wonder if we were actually going to make it out ahhaha. We stopped by the Stonehouse...then to Filthy McNastys...then to the Globe...then to the Stonehouse again because we wanted wings in a major way....and omg were they good! Hahaha. So after meeting a creepy french guy...being invited to some house party and turning down all of them we decided to call it quits...lets just say i was ready to pass out by then haha. So I walked home at 2am..bad idea..but I made it and woke up sideways on the my bed this morning hugging my Stitch doll from Janice...hehe this is why I need my boyfriend up here with me I need something that hugs back!

Unexpected: Life
Oh wow well I FINALLY finished my christmas shopping and I hope I dont have to set foot in another mall unless its shopping for myself! lol jks but seriously... It was nuts in there today! Alot of the line ups I just left and decided I could find something better somewhere else but I found some amazing deals which were actually unexpected! probably saved me somewhere in the ball park of $40! VERY exciting...
So at the moment, here is my current dilemma! I got recommended to be an R.A here in residence which is all cool and everything..I would get my own room (which would be a godsend because I'm about ready to lose it in the current situation) and would have a job in the same building that I live in! I would meet tonnes of people and things would be fine and dandy. I also got asked to apply at a near by bar.. I would definetly jump on that because I know I would be making tonnes of tips and it would be awesome. I kind of want to stay over the summer and the job at the bar would definetly be a good thing because I am going soooo broke ass. So thats it! Oh and also do I stay over the summer?? I HATE Brooks with probably the biggest passion ever and wouldnt have a decent place to waitress because everything is still smoking and yeah...thats not very appealing for me to want to work in right now. So there ya go..In Edmonton I could enroll for a summer or spring course and get caught up with school..have a decent job and be with most of my friends..Aahh decisions decisions...

18th Birthday!!
Wow so that was sooo much fun! (I know I look hammed in the top one..) Between the jello shooters with Cheryl, the drinking at Towers at 11:30am and getting free drinks from the bartender, going to Overtime with my professor and a few classmates... my afternoon was a blast! After I came home and passed out on Janices bed, I woke up ready to go again! Little to my surprise my boyfriend drove up for the night!! I was SO EXCITED that he could make it!! We went out to Esmereldas and had blast! Dayna, Janice, Melissa, Nate, Brock, Mitch, Me, Danielle and Lisa came out and most of us got tanked, well I'm assuming so. I definetely had the best birthday EVER!!! I had so many great pictures on my camera and other people had some awesome ones too so here's just one with me and Mitch and then another one with me and my girls!!!!

Doubts
Well its 2:11am and I am totally not tired and I miss my family. Don't worry I don't have class until like 2pm tomorrow afternoon so its okay. So as I am sitting here stuffing my mouth full of "low fat" salty pretzels, not able to sleep, I am contimplating my life..well how it is so far. The main thing on my mind is if I am chasing the right profession...like why in the world do I want to be a teacher? I don't know if i have that "feeling" for it..like when I decided on my college...I just looked it up it looked nice I had a good feeling about it and applied then got accepted and that was the end of that. And why a biology teacher?! I always kind of saw myself in the health sciences profession if nothing else..so I guess I'm in the right direction anyways. I have a job at the end of my degree if nothing else.
Also another big thing is that I have never felt more "that I am where I am supposed to be" than I feel right now but I am bored out of my brain! I am hoping that next semester will bring its own challenges and that maybe getting a job and enrolling in bellydance again will help me keep busy. I also feel as though there is something missing and I am partly thinking that it is tap dancing...it used to be such a large part of my life but now its totally not included at all.. I'm also not used to such a relaxed schedual and personally I don't like it! I have never spent more time on a computer! Maybe being 18 will also help me out with this haha...then I'll definetly need a job lol.
My future looks so uncertain and I don't know where to place it or what to do. I realize that maybe I need to take it easy and just let things fall into place as they are supposed to but honestly I am having issues with doing that! How do I know if I am in the right place doing the right thing when I feel so unsettled with it all? I don't know if this is what I want!!!!!

Raw
Here I am extremely bored but what a better idea than document my last weekend being 17! HaHaaa!! Yesterday I went out for sushi with the girls...Melissa, Dayna and Janice! It was my second time out and I didn't get a tummy ache after! I think I'm getting used to this raw fish idea! Unfortunately, however, Dayna got a chewy piece and that kind of had a disgusted effect on all of us and it officially ended the sushi eating for that night. Janice didn't partake in the fish eating...she just made fun of us all when we couldn't eat anymore rolls with fish eggs on it..

Orange
Well its December! Wow! 4 days until I'm 18! I am more than excited!! The only downside...mY Boyfriend..Mitch...couldn't get his days off to come and see me for it! : ( I havent seen him in so long (2 weeksish to be exact) and I am starting to really miss him. SO it will be another couple weeks before I go back to Brooks but that's okay I'm in no hurry to go back and be working for the Christmas holidays...There is much partying to be done before I go back... So far its looking like its gonna be really fun though..luckily I have some really good friends who are willing to take me out for the big Tuesday hahaha!! :D I'm eating my very first Christmas orange at the moment and my god are they good! I plan on making myself sick off of these things so that I get my fill for the year! Haha jks but seriously I think Im gonna eat as many of them as I can get my hands on cuz they are soooo yummy its almost a sin!! Good thing they are good for you or I would be getting fat off of oranges!!
I got most of my christmas shopping done...it doesn't really feel like Christmas for some reason..I think this is because exams are coming up. Once I get those out of the way I will be able to finally kick back and relax a little bit...I think then it will feel more like Christmas...I just cannot believe how fast this year has gone by! So much has happened and you really don't realize how fast time is going by until its gone and youre left there looking back! Well sushi with the girls tonight so I should maybe finish off that Chapter in Psychology so I don't have to do it later this weekend!!!
