yep 12 days later i post -----sooo horrible

Hey All,
It has been a long while -- been sooo busy.....I have felt like since I got home, I have just been going going and going........crazziness-----sooo hmm whats new.....finally got all my marks none were really a surprise...finished with an 81 average which makes me happy......cuz it means I am on the deans list again yayay!!

Work has typically been work -- the only issue I have working with children (and I say with a strong voice) is that they act like 5 year old kids and they are all adults, it is sooo ridiculous. So much petty arguements going on there, about hours and incidents that happened a year ago ya know...so stupid.....I am soo glad I get to leave in the new year for awhile, it is such a relief!

Finished all my shopping yesterday with RJ once we got back from Guelph, because I had to drop off my blood pressure monitor at the doctor's office.......we just had to buy a gift for our bosses so that was a relief to get done....I am gonna take them over today!

Tonight we are going to RJ's step-sisters Tia's party, which should be great, we had soo much fun last year it was good times......her home is Hamilton so that kinda sucks but oh well we are not driving this year, RJ's dad is woohoo. Tonight we are making faijitas wooohoo can't wait -- they are sooo good!

Anyways sooory for the lack of posts, Christmas makes me sad and I promise I will be better in the new year okees!!

toodles all ----- and have a great Christmas and a happy new year if I don't see ya -- okees!!

byebye

today!!

Well today has been fairly boring, just pretty much been studying, and doing a little packing and cleaning up....the worst part, is that I always forget something anyways, so I dunno why I bother to make a list of things to bring home hehehe --- hmm what else has been new........I gave my roommates their christmas gifts today, we did it last year, and I was sorta caught off guard because, the other years that I have been here, all of my rommates never gave gifts, so this year I decided I would be ahead of the game and not have to scramble for a gift at the last minute. BUT, now I have a feeling that they didn't plan on doing gifts this year....so now I kinda feel bad for doing it, cuz my one roommate totally ran to the store in our building and bought us all some stuff.....I mean its adorable teddy bear that I recieved, but I sorta feel like they didn't want to do it....but oh well - what can ya do!!!

Well I should be off, still a lot to do and I gotta get some good sleeep tonight, I woke up feeling horrible today....I really hope I am not getting sick --- cuz that would be horrible!!!

Have a great day all - and hope to see you all very soon!

toodles

sorry its been awhile!!

Don't worry I haven't fallen off the face of the planet....heheh.....I decided to come home last weekend so there was just never anytime to post anything....so ya my weekend was great, I came home Thursday, thanks to adorable RJ for picking me up ---although I horrible apoligetic for him getting a speeding ticket in the process-darn cops, oh wait, I am in criminal justice hehe.....so that kinda turned Thursday from being a great day into a crapppy day...but we got over it......so that night was good I just relaxed, worked a little on other take-home final, but I mainly played catch with Raider all night, that puppy has an incredible amount of energy, I seriously think that he sleeps maybe two or three hours a day, and is still always hyper...but its super cute so it makes up for the fact, that no else can sleep around him hehe!

Friday -- hmmm what did I do, oh ya I had to wake up at 7am, with Raider once again, because he won't go back to sleep after my parents have left at 6:30am for work....soo, we got up and watched a little tv and tried to have a little nap, until 8:30 at least...which was good, cuz I was a little headachy, when I woke up!!! Then I worked on my take home final some more......I finally finished the second question, and then I had to tackle the horrible first question -- a book review for one our texts, which I maybe read, ohhh about 5 of the chapters in - I know thats bad, but I had I have know that I was gonna need that information I would have probably read it before then.....so I read as much as I could, and got some ideas down. Which was good....relieved a bit of stress! RJ and I went to dinner (well I had a mcflurry and then took bits out of everything that RJ bought hehe -horrible I know) at McDonalds that night because he had to work at the hotel, after he finished at Price Chopper.

Saturday - well I got up early to finish my last question off in my exam....but I didn't -- I did nothing, I watch some tv...talked to my parents, until they left for grocery shopping, and then it was like noon -- so I had to get ready, cuz RJ and I were going to see his mom at work......so little work got done this day....but oh well it all worked out!! That night we rented Bruce Almight, which was actually really funny, not annoying funny that Jim Carrey can be sometimes, I really liked it and then we watched Pirates of the Caribbean.....which was amazing....Johnny Depp, made the movie.....his character is was hilarious....Rich came over to RJ's after work, so he saw most of the movies ---- and he brought food woohoo ..... these delicious spring roll things, and chicken wings for him and RJ.....so we had good times....it was a great break from school stuff!!

Sunday -- once again I got up early around 7:30 to do some more work, but didn't---I went to Church with my dad and then to Canadian Tire to buy some more hooks for our outside Christmas lights.....and then finally I got to business, and finished my exam off....I wrote it all out so it was done, except for my opinion portion woohoo !!
Then RJ picked me up around 4ish, so we could get ready for his work party, actually we played video games until 5:30ish and then we had to rush around like fools, but the game was soo much fun!! Although apparently I get too competitive, but hey a little competition won't hurt anyone right hahah!!! The Christmas party was good, the ppl there are super nice, but the food oh my lord, why did I get the veggie dish, what was I thinking, I thought it was gonna be pasta, cuz hello usually it is, but not this time - the only way that I can explain it as being kinda like meatloaf without the meat, and vegetables in its place.....I mean it didn't taste horrible, but it wasn't great, so I ate all the vegetables, and even RJ's vegetables and a lot of bread hehehe....but we stopped after to get some food anyways hehehe, so bad, but we were starving, once we got back to Guelph around 10:30pm.......which I tried to finish off the rest of my exam, but I was soo tired by 1am, that I decided to finish it MOnday night and hand it in on Tuesday when it was due, instead of earlier......it had to be done, I was falling asleep at my computer, RJ was trying to encourage me, but I just couldn't go one any more!!

Monday was good I studied all day for my Psyc exam, which was today -- it actually wasn't too bad.....I thought she was gonna kill us, because there were over 60 articles that we had to know, plus the book that she wrote, so there was a ton of information....but she was pretty fair.....I knew a lot more then I had too thats foresure!! Then I finished my paper when I got in Monday night.....and I handed it in today......such a relief to almost be done. 1 more final to go.....this one is not too horrible, there is a lot of information about the sociology of education, but its not too complicated, so thats good.....but anyways I should get back and do some studying!!

I will try and post tomorrow, but there can be guarantees, when I am this tired hehehe!!! Hope everyone had a great weekend.........and I can't wait to see everyone a whole bunch once I get home, for a whole 4 weeks woohoo!!

toodles all and goodnight

Always Liz :)

Busy Girl

Hey Everyone,

Well I have already had quite a busy day, well for me anyways, I finally went back to the doctors and gave them my blood sample- its not that its really that bad, its just they really do not seem to understand that I do not have 2 hours to waste over there, they are always like come on over anytime and just drop in, ya okay, when you don't have an appointment, which they won't make for blood samples, you end up waiting forever...I mean I have to starve myself anyways before I go, and an extra two hours of waiting does not help ya know.....

But anyways I digress, I got that done this morning, my arm is still a little sore but its not toooo bad......then I went over and paid my phone bill......which is another service on campus that takes forever, I know the women there probably don't have a lot of excitement during the day, but hurry up...goodness....althought today wasn't too bad, there was no one in line when I got there so that was great!! owowow

Then I walked over to Mackinnon (building on campus) and I handed in my first take-home final which was good to get it off and out of the way....we have to slip into a box now, because apparently the secretary's are too busy sitting there discussing what was on tv last night, to take a moment and stamp our paper and put into the prof's mailbox ---- errrrr this department is the worst for that.......you can stand there for 10 mins before they recognize your existence and then ask rudely what you want......one day hopefully before I graduate I am gonna scream, I want my tuition money back that pays your salary b.c you don't do anything for ME -- I assume they do stuff for profs, cuz I dunno with my experience they have never been helpful to me....so ya thats my rant about the support staff at the U of Goo.....I mean this does not characterize all of the staff, because the ppl in the library are nothing but helpful, they always approach you if it looks like you are struggling with something, and they are all super friendly......so I dunno what the difference is!!!! But I really don't think its that difficult to be nice to ppl - I mean I have bad days when I am work too, but I am not flipping out at customers, because its not their fault ya know.......I think everyone should be made to work a service job at least once in their life, so they have a greater appreciation for the ppl that stand behind the counter ya know!!

Well I should get going and start the next paper -- I promised RJ I would have one done tonight, so then I can come home on Thursday woohooo......talk to you all later....I hope your day is going well and that you encounter only friendly and kind people today!!

always Liz :)

ahh Finals

Hey Peeps, hehe
Well I have been busy at work on my take-home finals so there has been little time too blog, I have been focussing on getting these done first, so then I can study for the next two which are next week!

Well RJ brought it to my attention, that I forgot to explain my huge cleaning spree on Sunday......well my roommate, who is usually very nice, kinda made a snippy comment on Saturday about the House looking horrible blah blah, but see its not me, I live in my room, I come out to shower, use the bathroom and of course cook in the kitchen.....but its our other roommate who lives on the same floor with me..I mean she is a nice girl, and I don't mean to characterize all only children, but she doesn't seem to be concerned with those around her, she leaves her books and clothes all over the living room, its crazzy, she never cleans our bathroom or our shower room, but eh I can handle that. So, anyways I decided that hey I will clean up downstairs ya know just be nice....so I did I swiffered every floor in this house, windex every countertop, and I cleaned off the coffee table and our dinning room table as well....so I did good.....and my roommate thanked me...so that was good -- but needless to say, my other roommate is back with her boyfriend and all my cleaning has gone to waste, it is once again covered in snow and dirt and salt......but it looked nice for 48 hours what can I say!!

Anyways I gotta back and finish off my final, cuz its due tomorrow, I just have to reference all it feels soo good.......talk to everyone later.....hope they are enjoying their week sooo far!!!
toodles
