    Single Awareness Day Eve*

    I have always felt that there is entirely too much pressure put on Valentine’s Day. Those who are in relationships often expect it to be perfect, and those who are single often are only made aware of just how single they are. Mind you, I’m all for remembering the holiday, but seriously, when did it become such a big deal? Already a bunch of my single friends are stressing about how to spend/avoid tomorrow just because they aren’t currently with someone. I think it’s so silly. I do love having the Hubs as my ‘Valentine’, but our celebrating will likely consist of us exchanging cards, and we plan on going…

    Not Impressed* (145.5)

    As you know, I am one of 3 co-chairs of an organization at my university. There are really only supposed to be two–this year was somewhat of an exception. Last fall I was a leader for Frosh week, and while I was there I was approached by a friend to see if I could fill a position on a organizational team (OT) for a group at the university. I said, ‘sure, why not’. Mind you, I was also delirious I was so sick from lack of proper nourishment and lack of sleep. Anyway, so I got involved. The position I stepped in to fill was the junior co-chair position, as…

    …Maybe*

    Maybe. Just maybe. My family takes a trip to Florida every year on March Break, and as I am now a university student, my break comes in February and I can’t go because March Break is in the middle of essay season. Drat. I haven’t been in 2 years. However, this year, I may have an opportunity to go. My biggest hesitations for going are: a) I’m missing a week of classes, and b) I’d be leaving the Hubster on his own for a week. I know I’d go crazy here on my own for a week, and I kind of feel like I’d be abandoning him. He doesn’t have…

    I found this survey on Dee’s facebook and decided to steal it because I haven’t done one in such a long time, and I used to love filling these out.

    Ma Famille*

    I MIGHT STILL GET METIS MONEY!!!!!! WOOOOO!!! …Did I ever tell you that my family is Metis? Well, we are. I also think that we’re quite possibly the last generation of my family who is eligible to claim it. Anyway, as a Metis post-secondary student in Ontario I can apply for bursaries to help fund my education. Last year I applied and received $750 in December. The deadline for this year’s application was the end of October, so naturally when I hadn’t heard anything by the end of December I assumed that for whatever reason I didn’t get it this year. WELL. Today I got a letter in the mail…
