I thought that being close to the end of school and all, it waranted a post.
I'll be back on the 14th or so, and probably looking for a job. I doubt I'll get any of the city jobs I applied for and ecohost.net has not contacted me back. I'm going to be so upset to leave Thunder Bay, I dont know why anymore. The past few weeks have been so great here that I'm almost regreting going back to Dryden but I know it's for my own good.
Not sure If I've ever mentioned it but I have been working for The Opus (Confederation College Student Union Newspaper) For several weeks now, Well, I did three issues, I guess thats just about two months. I love the job, and sad to let it go for the summer. On the bright side, I dont have to apply for the job when I come back next year, I get it automatically. I put almost 20 hours into this issue, we were really hurting for submissions and articles. I ended up writing the entire front page, aswell as taking the pictures for it. You'll probably be able to find it any the other ConCollege outlets, albiet a little later than when it comes out here (on the 4th).
I applied for residence for next year, I'm on a waiting list. Kinda frustrates me but I understand the reasons, I'll only be in Thunder Bay for one semester, they are going to wait to see if there will be any more full time students applying to residence to get the 'full amount', before letting in the part timers.
Residence bonus ++ the network. I think I just 'borrowed' a good few gigs of 'stuff' from it. Bringing my external hard drive up to 20 gigs of music, 18 gigs of movies, and 40 gigs of tv sitcoms and cartoons.
I'm going to be nerding it up this summer. Before I leave I am taking measurements of my residence room (they're all the same pretty well). I'm going to put those measurements into 3ds max and render out the room, then create all the stuff I want to bring to res and fit it all perfectly, so I know what will and wont fit.
My plan is to buy a futon, bring my 30 inch tv, hook it up to my computer, and buy a bar cabinet. Have a special alcoholic holiday every two weeks, before the bar.
(just a dream of mine)
I'm reconsidering my second semester placement in Winnipeg. Part of me wants to stick around Thunder Bay. I doubt it will happen, I want to get into 3d animation or modelling and I dont think theres any of that available around here.
Ciao for now,
Kurtis
