So, a week of christmas break has passed and I find myself only now getting over the initial home sickness that comes with not going home for Christmas for the first time. I was slighly moody....that's an understatement....anyway, the tree is up and i'm starting to feel better after dad came in for a bit.
I have a single room next semester. Yay for not having to play the roomate lottery. The only time that they actually did it right my roomate decided to go home and it was sad. She was a very good friend and slightly antisocial like myself. We spent many an hour downloading, exchanging and watching movies when we should have been studying. Oh the tea we drank and the hours spent watching Ever After. I will sincerely miss that girl. She was a great roomate. So there is my tribute to Kristilyn.
I kicked ass this semester. My GPA went up to 3.60 ^____________^ Accounnting was lower than I initially wanted but it was okay none the less. I just got some new glasses today so this is truely a happy day. According to the girl at Vogue they're cute. To others they are professional....I don't know how they can be both but I prefer professional. I opted for sunglasses instead of clipons for the sole face that I will most definitely lose them, like I did over a year ago to my last ones. On my way home I felt like I was cut off at the knees because the perscription changed and my astigmatism (most definetly spelled wrong, then again I am horribile at spelling)so I had about an hour of shortness and am currently waiting for the headach to hit.
I met up with someone from 'da Wabush Croud yesterday and romed aimlessly in the Avalon for a bit. Got my cell number changed because Aliant gave me a Bay Robert's number. Well, KenTec did. Shouldn't really be much of a surprise in that sense. They can't seem to do anything right. All they had to do was call. Oh well. It's fixed now and that's all that matters. I got a couple of books at Chapters yesterday, one being the last available copy to buy in the province. Yay for me. Both are by a Scottish author about/involving Scottland. A character in one is fron Newfoundland, he loves drinking and fish. I guess that it part of the general steriotype (also spelled wrong).
Well, I must go and continue being lazy before the enivetable housework kicks in. I figure it's the last I can do for staying with Chris. He does buy me good food afterall.
Have a good one!

So, the job competition has started and oh, how I hate it. It is making me so stressed out. I am still waiting for one of the companies at least to update the site with their interview scedules. So far no one I applied has. Strange because I applied to many a job. I hope it comes out soon so I can rest easier. I'm currently waiting for a call from a company about a part time job this semester. I hope I get it because I may be able to get a work term with them. I realy don't want to have to change my degree. Well, I guess all I can do is wait. There's no HR positions posted this time around so I guess it's all left to time.
Lately I have been so busy with everything. The past two weeks have been rediculous between tests, assignments, and aplying for jobs. The internet is not a good medium for applying. I am considering dissapering over to Chris's place this weekend to get away from school for the long weekend. I have no more accounting until the 17th! YAY! But I do have an Ops Management test next week......ewwwwwwwww.
Anyway, I had better be off and print some more notes.
Have a good one.

Hey, I honestly don;t know hwy I update this thing but oh well. As of late I have been experianceing some technical difficulties with my computer. There's the usual resnet issues but it has taken up the habit of resetting itself and freezing an abnormal amount. It is time for a new computer but it is a little pricey. Th eoone I want is alltogether 1200 which isn't that bad. It's dell. The other one was significantly cheaper and is toshiba but futureshop seems to be out of stock. Although wth extended warrenty it will be ablt the same. Oh well. I will have to consult the parentals on this since it will require the use of a credit card and me without internet. This may require some shopping around, more than I already have done.
This semester is going to be VERY busy. I have seminars every Friday at the business buildng for work terms and I plan on applying for a MUCEP job for some relative experiance I can up on my resume. It looks good so far though. This friday I am at seminars all day. I have to inform my German proff that I won;t be able to make it. HUmmmmm.......we'll see how that goes. She'll probably want me to ask in German.
My courses are ok I guess. Oddly busier that last semester when I had 6 but I guess that's just because I'm used to sitting on my ass all day and watching cartoons :P Anyway, I must be off to study fur eine klein Prufung am Mittwoch. (A small test on Wednesday.
Have a good one.

So, this is it, mylast night intown. Kind of bitter sweet. I always get weird just before I go. The summer was boring...only picking up in the last month really. At least it did have sone good times. MOst of my friends never came back so it was kind of lonely. It passed VERY fast.
I finished up my last shift today. My formena let me leave a few hours early because I finished the last labels early. May or may not get paid for the last few hours but oh well. He promiced a great referance which I plan to use to my advantage and try to get a work term at wabush mines this winter. Not because I want to come back but because it means no living or food expenses. Of course there's my sanity to think of. I guess I"ll just have to wait and see.
I fly out of here tomorrow morning at 10:30 and get to see Chris fleetingly but I guess it's good that I get to see him...at work. It's too bad he couldn't get the day off but that's ok. He has tuesday...I think....and that's better. I still can't wait to see him. I have to let Chris's mom know that I got there ok O_o....seems I have another mother, but that's okay ^____^
Well, got to go I suppose. One last chack around the room for anything I need. My suitcase feels like i have a body in it....it is very heavy.
Have a good one!

So, the weekend is over and I actually had somethng to do this weekend! Friday I went to get my ears pierced and it was a horrible experiance. The girl that did it managed to get the gun stuck to my ear and ended up piercing it three tmes before finally getting the earring in O___O It hurt sooooo much I could have cried. But my ears are ok now, just requiring an excessive amount of fussing.
Saturday I stayed over to Elyses and we went to the k bar. Company was great and made it into a very enjoyable night. I did have to make use of my earplugs at one point, but it was all good. I fan into some of the girls I work with and then some and we danced together for the first time in years I think.
Today I had to go to Chris's house and spend the day with his mom. She's ok. We just talked all day and shared a pizza at O' Flat's followed by coffee at timmies. I was there for an amazing 8 hours!
Must be on my way.

The summer is winding down and everyone is getting ready to go back to school. I have to pack up a box for dad to take out in the next week or so. I want to go back and I don;t. Oh well, you have to do it. I plan on getting a laptop when I go out and paying for it with my new credit card. I plan on paying it off before the end of the month so I do;t have to pay a rediculous amount of interest on it. This term I get to apply for workterms. I have a place in mind but I won;t get my hopes up. For that I imagine I would need more schooling but there's always accounting. I'll try to go back here even though it will be on January for the sole reason that I don;t have to pay rent and what not. We will have to see.
I finally got my ears pierced today and it hurt like you wouldn;t believe. Wel, one ear was fine but me being me can;t even get my ears done normally. The girl who was doing it got the gun stuck in my ear which was VERY umpleasent. She said......"oh my God, oh my. Um... can someone come here and help me?" As it turns out it never went all the way through and had to pierce it three times. At least it's getting better now andn all I have to do it take care of it. Easier said than done I guess when you work at the mines. I will have to clean it every 10 minutes I swear. The two girls that went with me went white as a sheet. It was kinda funny.
As for this weekend, I really wanted to go out tonight but that kind of got called off. Oh well, what can you do? But I'm going out to the K tomorrow with Elyse which should be good. I have to wear earplugs due to my disease but that's ok. The last thing I need is to go to costello again for a perscription. I can't drink though because I have to bake cookies with Chris's mom sunday. It should be ok. I can make my maccaroons.
Anyway, must go.
NIght!

The summer si reallylooking up now that I have someone to go out with. I am slowly regaining my sanity. This was a long time coming and I'm glad it's all ok again.
Work is the same old thing. We do the same thing every day. As it seem I will be going out this weekend on friday and possibly saturday depending on whethyer elyse gets sunday morning off. Saturday it will be off to chris's house I go to bake depending on if his mom calls to say she wants to. Off to the mall woth maegan after work on friday. Cna;t wait.
That is all as my life is fairly boring.
Have a good one.

Went to regatta yesterday. It was fun and resulted in an awesome day. I got rained on severaly and my cotton candy turned to mush but the company was good. Regatta itse'f was a little dissapointing. There were only a few games there to play and one place for food. I also managed to get burned for the first tome in about 8 years and it was cloudy all day. O_O Surprised me.
I just came back from the mall. I was only going to keep Elyse company but as always, when me and elyse go out we always end up buying cloths so I went in looking for shoes and came out with a new outfit. At least it's nice. It consisted of new jeans, a tank top and a jacket. Man, do I hate spending money and hate having little will power even more.
One more day left to my weekend. What to do. I see a movie in my near future. Depends on if I can get mom to give me tha van for yet another trip to lab city. I highly doubt it. They've been very stingy.
Anyway, have a good one!

Yay for a short work week. *cheers* Still, every day is long. Now, my foremen is going on vacation so now we have a more strict version for the rest of the summer >.< No naps :P I don't nap ayway..... yeah..... honestly. We are on page 134 of 276, we counted the pages yesterday, this means limiting our outdoor breaks to one in the afternoon at two because that is the worst hour of the day. One of my student co workers also entertains herself by irritating me.....claiming that "I am so fun to bug." Why me? One of the attendants came back from vacation and gave us all a car freshner. Score :P I have taken up snooping in dad's lunch can and taking a snack for the afternoon. Yesterday mom gave him my joe Louis......I was very distraught.
I register in two days! One of the perks of having a good mark. I just have to keep it up. I think I will try and take a MUCEP job this term to get a little prepared for a workterm that will probably be in a bank....hopefully IOCC though.
My courses I have to take are as follows......Operations Managment, Accounting Applications, Introduction to Labor Relations (probably the only course I will like), Informations systems (Hopefully not Zubereck.....that was a horrible experiance), and Intermediate German. I was planning to take Japanese but thought since I already knew a lot of German I may as well stick with it. Only 5 this term and only three terms of actual school.
I am so bored it is rediculous. Elyse asked me to go to Superman but I was honestly too lazy from eating the rest of my cookies. They gave me the worst bad stomach I've in a long time. I drove around for a bit. Contemplated a movie but had no idea which one to get. Everyone kept saying Matador but I don't know, maybe. I really want to go back to St. John's. Then I can see Andrea again and Chris. I'm looking forward to drunkin nights in Andrea's room watching movies. And Chris, I declair that the minute I moved back into res...against my will.... we will go for a pretzel and shop for my computer.
Well, must go.
Have a good one!

Yeah, This past weekend I did NOTHING! I hate not doing anything but hey, what can you do withy no friends here. I did get invited to a big party but I didn;t really want to go because I never really talked to most of the people and I can't really afford to be spending a lot of my money on booze. Maybe I can do what I did last summer. Attract some poor guy's attention and have him buy me drinks. :P J/K I did that once and almost was sick from drinking. Gross. I want to got o the bar again but I'm not going alone and not going without earrplugs. Believe it or not my ears are STILL ringing and I think I have some form of permanent tinitus.
Work is .....ok. I can;t really complain anbout it because I'm not in the concentrator and I have a great foreman but we have nothing to reallly do. We have to go as slow as possible labelling because we are dangerously close to ending up upstairs and it's so worm up there it can make you sick. And it is full of contractors, but cute ones so maybe it won;t be so bad. But sweeping would be a bitch. And I hate dust bane...soooo much.
Tomorrow is my driving exam. I am so nervous. When I pay for my license it would have cost me pretty much the same as the maybe laptop I will get this fall. But I guess it will be worth it and maybe I can finally drive myself places. Although I doubt I will get the van very often becides chores and such.
Dad starts work tomorrow. It's good to see him get back into the swing of things. He still is dealing with some of the pain from surgery but what can you do. No new updates on my uncle. I'll just hope for the best.
So, I am in residence again. 4th floor blackall is like a study bootcamp and me wioth a frosh roomate...humm.......we'll have to se how this one turns out. At least Andrea is coming back. She was so fun to party with and a really great person. I can;t wait to see her again. I'm sure we'll both be on the charity comittee again to play with the kids at halloween.
Well, bedtime. Dman, tomorrow is only wednesday. 3 more days left!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Work passed fairly quickly but was made all the more interesting because there was a fire in the mobile shop. We found out before anyone else, in the warehouse anyway, and the conversation went a little like this.....
Me: It stinks.
Shannon: It smells like burning.
Man: It's only the fumes.
Me: It smells like smoke.....
Then, as I was changing a label...the power goes out O__O
Maegan....Um....Yeah.
Me: I think we should go.
Then *siren noise*
Then they never knew where to go because in order to get to your designated assembly point we had to walk through the shop O___O So they kept screaming different places. All in all....if it were in the warehouse then it would have been bad. The fire trucks actualy stopped at security and waited for the thingy to go up. HAHAHAHAHA I would have went right through it, they should have had it up anyway since they KNEW that they were coming. And then I see our van speeding into the parking lot with flashers on. Lone behold it was dad on his way back from Tim Horton's. It was funny.....a had to be there at the time funny.
Because of the extremely nautious fumes only rivaled by Bunker C we got to sit in the yard for an hour or so and watched birds fly around and make a nest. They were sooooooo cute and sat right next to us. They keps flying at us after a while so we gave in and went inside.
My Foreman gave me a mouse pad O___O.
I finally got my birthday present from Chris. It was absolutly adorable. It was a box with my favorite things in it, including some comics which I have read 3 of 4. There was Pocky and White Rabbit Candy and Kool-Aid =^__^= and a CD and Crayons :P The girls at work went "Awwwwwwwwwwwwww" and a comment of..."I wish he was my boyfriend." :P Hear that Chris. Not a word of a lie. I will have a picture soon enough...when I'm not so lazy to take one.
Big plans this weekend......BIG plans but as it seems I don't really want to go because my ears are STILL trying to recouperate from the last time and I really don't want to have another attack because it was pure tourture. I was always sick and half deaf. Anyway, I guess I'll be at home again. Maybe get a movie or something for Saturday.
Wish I could come back early, Chris, but I have to make some money.
I feel like drawing. Have a good one.

It seems like forever since I last updated. As it seems I am not all that interested in it anymore. Anyway's ny job is super boring. One of us sleepsa all day while me and the other girl sit and talk all day. We have to change over 12000 lables and have about 5000 done. But we don;t want to go upstairs and therefore cannot finish downstairs before the summer ends or we will be laid off or something of the sort. At least I have an awesome foreman and great co workers. My naighbour works with me and he's the cutest old man ever. We sit down and talk abotu everything from insurance to movies. Speaking of which I may pick one up this weekend. Afterall I don;t actually do a nything on the weekends.
I went to the k bar one weekend and almost ended up passing out on the dance floor. As it turns out I have Manear's disease which SUCKS! It's an inner ear disease that seems to run in the family. The sound waves triggered it since I was dancing near the speakers. Now I have to wear earplugs when I go. It took me forever to get over it and my ears still ring. I got hit with vertigo in Wal-mart....not good O____O Even so, I want to go out more. I have no one to go with. Well, I guess I do but we never actually go out together. Oh well. I AM SO BORED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I managed to finish Harvest Moon last weekend. Yes I've spent most of my free time playing Harvest Moon. >.< I died at the end which seemed to be a little bit of a let down since I had played it for years and finally finished it only to have my character die. It was oddly depressing too.
Today I found out that my Uncle in BC has six weeks to live. How damn depressing is that. I haven't seen him in over a decade and wanted to soon. He had cancer for a VERY long time. I guess I was just hoping too muvh. So far in the past 12 months, my great grandma dies....devistating, dad got cancer and is STILL off of work, and now my uncle is dying. Yay.....V.V
Relationshipwise it's been going good. Easily my most successful long distance relationship thus far. It's still tough though but only a month and a half left. I miss you.
So, time to go and probably draw......I really wish I had someone to do something with.....
Have a good one!

So, orientation is going ok I guess but VERY boring. Yesterday morning was all safety but that wasn't so dull because the people who were giving the presentation were fairly colorful people. One of them gave me a pair of the new safety glasses that go over perscription glasses. I'll admit that they look a little goofy but they are better than the goggles :P I got in the waregouse which means that for the rest of the summer I will be recataloguing the inventory into computers with Magan Pickett and Shanon Goulding. It's all 8 - 4's with weekends off YAY! No shift work. I'm just glad I never got put in the concentrator.
Anyways, tme to get ready I spose for another morning or orientation.

So, this summer is going to be busy, despite the fact that practically no one in in town this summer. Oh well. Elyse will be in in a few weeks. Anyway, over the summer I have to finish up a research report for a montreal based loans company and I am the fundraising co ordinator for Real Time Cancer for the area so I have to plan an fundraising event. It should be fun and keep me occupied. I also have had only one day off since I got back, tonight is my seventh day working in a row and lucky me it's night shift. I HATE these things. Some of the comments I get is rediculous. I hope it isn't too busy and everything goes ok. But I don;t think that I will be so luck tonight sine most of the students just got back in town. I'll probably get a lot of peole from the K bar tonight. No nights next week though. I have friday night off so I was thinking of getting Ashley to go out somewhere for my birthday because I will be working almost certainly. By the way it's on Tuesday, The 16th, I'll be 20 and not a bit more mature :P The other day me and Maria were checking out "hot guys" that came through drive thru.....Sone things never change.
I strangely enough missed a lot of people that i worked with. It's weird to come back and see that about 3 or 4 of them had babies. Pansy's baby is adorable and tiny. I can;t believe how small she is and quiet. I worked with andrew last night and he gave me a ride home in his new car. Ocean has takin up tickling me while I take orders and pulling on the hairs of mine and Maria's neck...it drives us nuts. Anyway, I pretty sure that Tim Hortin's is the last thing people want to hear about so I should go and get ready for my shift. I have slept about 13 hours today ^__^
Anyway, have a good one!

So this is the last time I will be updating in good ol' St JOhn's for 4 months. When I return I will be purchasing a laptop to console myself while living here in Blackall......AGAIN! GAH! Anyway, I don;t relaly know how this summer is going to be. I hope it will be fine even though my friends are coming and going all summer, kind of like shifts. But in June Elyse comes bacl and I can be immature again! Well, be immature without being told I am being too immature. If that makes sence O_O
So, this sumemr I WILL get my licence seeing as how dad is off work and I have workterms for the next three years. Ot will give us something to do. I plan on going to the K bar with elyse for a laugh on both our parts :P and Ashley because she recently started contacting me again. Love you Ash! Becides that I will work. And work I will. Hopefully I'll get on with Wabush Mines. The person whi heads the HR department knows me and dad by name. Her name is Rita...and I hope that will help me get in. And the fact that she has three applications from me :P Yeah I know excessing vut now that don;t have an excuse.
Mom opened her mouth to Anit and Alec that I was coming back on the 25th so guess what? I'm scheduled to work 3 - 11 on the 26th. YAY... -_- Thanks mom. I metter get the weekend off to get a drink or heads will roll.
I spent last weekedn at Chris's house and it was fun. I had mucho food to comensate for my excessive studying. And we had toutens. I love toutens. Now every weekend I have to have toutens because it's habit now. There was much cuddling and Chris telling me not to leave :P Wish I could oblige but work and home calls. It's only 4 months. I've had bad experiances with 4 months distance but itwill be fine. I know you'll be here when I come back and you better be at the airport or I swear I'll break up with you. :P The only excuse is working.
Or you have to use the bathroom real bad. I only said that cause you just said it......... OK
Well, I guess it's off. I have to pack up my computer and no more computer for me till I go home. Had a great yearand Hope to see everyone in the fall.

So, apparently I only get weird, perscription needing illnesses during important times....such as finals that start tomorrow. I have Shingles....yay...not really. Meds are 150.00 but thankfully because of dad's insurance I only paid 25. I passed out while I was getting and excessive amount of blood taken and scared the shit out of the nurse. It was halarious. If I had the strength tolaugh I would have. I told her I pass out when I have a lot of blood taken but would she listen noooooooooooooo. My pills are horse pills and VALTREX!
Yes I am taking Herpes medication...again. This is weird.
This hurts...a lot...
Now it's off to Chris's house to be sooked and study. Also, Chris is sleep deproved and acting weird. O_O

Hey people, classes are 99% finished for the semester..YAY! I have one class tomorrow at 9 and then at 10 me and my aunt are going shopping and then fir dinner before going around the bay. I would imagine that my cousin would be dragged along but that's ok cause she is absolutly adorable.
My group kicked ass in marketing. We had an half hour presentation to give on a case analyasis. We had our paperbound and everything. Suzan, the proff, never even had any critizims about it which has nevcer happened and neither of the Ryans asked any questions for the first time in the semester. It was a great feeling. The fact that I was able to stand in fromn of the class for 75 minutes was surprising. I guess I'm getting of the public speaking thing. I have no choice in thge matter anyaway considering my degree. We're hoping for a high B or low A.
I got an A in acocunting and she let us out early so today is going pretty good. It's going to be hard to get into studying for finals again. I actually only have three more rounds of finals after this semester due to workterms. ^____^
Well, time to print off notes.
