Hey hey,
I figured that I may as well make a real post on here considering the fact that I haven't really done so since Chicago.
Basically I'm working. Plain and simple. Co-op job is moderately fun and interesting though, so it's all good. Not to mention I'm making sweet, sweet monies that can soon be given directly to my University. I wouldn't want them thinking I'm not a poor student, right?
lol.
But yeah, going well. The only annoyance, as I knew it would be, is the whole getting to and from work thing. Since I opted to live with my parents again this semester, instead of renting a place IN Ottawa, I am back to the 45 minute drives every morning and evening. Still, it's not too bad, as I generally get back around 6:30ish. Though I DO have to usually get up a little before 6:30 most mornings, so that's a big negative, especially after coming from my last semester of not having class until like, 10. Man that was great...
So that means I'm usually in bed by like, 9:30, which, once again, is a bit of a change. But eh, that's just the way that it goes.
Still been playing some Halo ODST, but not nearly as much. Other than weekends, I don't usually have much time for games and the like, especially due to the fact that there always seems to be things happening with the family (like last week had special dinner for my sister's birthday, so that ate up a night). But once again, it's fun stuff, just an adjustment.
Work is going well. The two guys I work with (well, kinda, not directly, they just are part of the same team, but we don't actually work on the same stuff) are awesome, so that makes the job much, much better.
Got the rest of the volumes of the Nausicaa manga (I got the first one a while ago) for my birthday. I finally own an entire series! Huzzah! lol.
Thanksgiving weekend coming up this weekend, so Woo! for long weekend. I'm heading to my cottage, which is going to be nice. My family, and all our cottage friends (a rather big group of people, many of them people that my parents have known for most of their lives as well as their kids and so on) have big Thanksgiving dinners at our lake every year, and I have missed the past two due to University, so I'm looking forward to that. It's always so much fun. Cottage life and our cottage friends are so great.
Next big thing after Thanksgiving is of course...Youmacon! It's crazy that it's so close already! The end of the month and I'll be Kamina-ing it up again. lol.
Speaking of which, I plan on trying to find another belt for my cosplay, so that the previous belt + new belt can be combined into one that will become the proper length for the character. I think I'll be able to do that today since I'll be hanging around a mall for at least an hour today (due to aforementioned family happenings and the like) after work. I also need to make sure I still have a good amount of tattoo paint stuff and the hair dye. And I need to order my train ticket. Think I'll do that next week...
Anyways, that's my life right now. lol. Pretty tired, and kinda down due to various things like not really being able to hang out with IRL friends very often, or talk with many of you online friends. Been doing a lot of thinking on a lot of things, which I believe is starting to make me a recluse, lol.
Whatever the case, that's life.
With a tired smile,
