Breakout

After what seemed like a pretty hectic few days, I have made my way back into Calgary. In case anyone cared, I'll give a quick update on my education status - partly because it'll help serve as a good reminder to myself.

On Wednesday, I'll be starting my third year at Ambrose. It will be my fourth year of post-secondary, and my fifth year out of high school. It's crazy how once you leave the grade school system that anyone can literally fly every which way in their education and still end up in extremely similar situations in the work force.

I know that my second year was a pretty bad year - "bad" is probably an understatement - so I have been spending the last couple nights to try to refresh myself in a way that I can enter this third year as I did my first year. It was a freshness that I forgot about, that I forgot existed, and it was so important because it was vital to me as a person in helping me succeed in things that I did. And while I'll be cheesy and say that I still have scars leftover from last year, I am approaching this third year much like I did my first year. With some luck, I'll be able to have a pretty good year.

In other exciting news, I was half nervous about my new roommate when I got to school today. To my surprise, I was told that my roommate isn't coming. So guess what that means?! I get my own room (for this semester, at the least)! I am so incredibly stoked. Truthfully, I probably prefer a roommate, because then that would force me to get to know someone; but I'm not going to complain if I have everything to myself for a change. And thus, I'll be decorating my room over the next couple days to make everything as comfortable as it needs to be. If anyone is in Calgary, feel free to help. Haha.

And so that's that. I have a bit of a runny nose and cough, so I'll go to bed now in hopes that I'll feel better by the time school starts.

Good luck to everyone starting something new this September!
