Yesterday was my very first day back in actual physical classes. And I was rather impressed. I truly enjoyed my first Post-Humanism class and my first management class. There will be a lot of readings to do but I think I can stay on top of them if I keep trying. It's going to be… Continue reading Back in actual physical classes

So last night I saw The Grapes of Wrath (1939 PG) at the Royal Alberta Museum. I actually found the movie, though very very slow to be very well filmed. Most of the musings that follow deal with the fact that though we might be in a recession it is not nearly as bad as… Continue reading The Grapes of Wrath (1939)

These days my knees (in particular) have been hurting a lot. Yesterday, standing, working at SaveOn was particularly painful as my joints were rebelling against me — for no reason I could surmise. I guess I could blame it on becoming more physically active (in summer I walk more outdoors, and I seem to have… Continue reading Why oh why oh why do my joints hurt?

Often I feel torn. Not because I really ought to be, but because I don't feel like there are enough hours in the day to accomplish all that I want to do. There's only so much that I really can do or accomplish, and while I do know my priorities, sometimes it's just hard to… Continue reading Sometimes, there's just not enough time for everything…

… or however one expresses this properly now. It's hard to believe that it's actually been that long since this 'whole new era' so to speak began. People born since that event are as old as 8 years old now, and many young teens don't remember what the world was like before then. Heck, the… Continue reading So it's nine years after 9/11…

… okay so this post will be a comment on the various different shipping companies available, since I have both beefs (and find great up sides to most). UPS — I'm currently waiting for a package of books to arrive from Amazon.ca. I rather like Amazon.ca usually, but I'm not a huge fan of UPS… Continue reading I want my package to appear…

And it's all thanks to my wonderful stylist, Jackie! But yeah, it has been apparently over 10 years since I've had hair this short, and I rather like it. I guess I made the decision on having shorter hair earlier this week, and wanted something unique, fun but also low maintenance. I wanted something that… Continue reading I have short(er) hair! 🙂 And bangs! 🙂

Wow… I've never ever taken an online course before. And while I'm already not a fan of Blackboard (the successor to WebCT apparently… ugh), I'm totally looking forward to this class! I'm already perusing the online site — or at least I am insofar as I can before heading off to campus for a short… Continue reading So excited that my Graphic Novels class has started!

So today was the School of Library and Information Studies' Orientation for new students. I attended both to provide tours of the school and to meet up with my first-year buddy (she seems like a really awesome person!). Everyone was so quiet. I hope it was just nervousness/anxiety/shyness and that they get over some of… Continue reading New students, a new year!

… also known as trying to make sure I can log into all the appropriate websites. I've actually managed to forget my login to moodle so this doesn't bode well. On a more positive note I did get an email from one of my profs re: my online class so that should pan out nicely.… Continue reading Counting down the days until the school year begins…
