So it's been another long week. I'm glad that this one ended early - too much was going on. The extra day over easter will be a good chance to loosen up. I went to Taste of Chaos last night, it was pretty good but I just don't enjoy those huge concerts the way I used to. Reid an I had a good time but I think I just had too much on my mind. Dan couldn't make it last night, which really sucked because I haven't been to a concert with him in ages, but he loaned us his car which was awesome. We probably would've been fucked for getting there if he didn't.
Good news on other fronts: I got into further discussions with my boss about subsidizing my rent money for an apartment downtown. Now I just need to close on a location, and everything should fall into place. I think that I'll really miss Burlington, friends and family - when we get along, but everything would just make so much more sense if I were to live downtown. I'm getting really tired of the GO Train rides every day.
Toronto could really be an exciting time. I can picture it now, everyone coming down one Saturday night and partying on College or Bloor, the streets with endless bars. It will be really fun and different, and probably a good place for me to be at this stage in my life. Living on my own will really let me get my thoughts together and allow me to focus on what's important. Speaking of which, I just paid tuition at Athabasca for two courses starting in May. Thanks goes out to Dan who told me about the last-day-of-payment on the 10th of the month before the courses. I probably would've missed them if it wasn't for him.
I see these last few weeks of April to be the calm before the storm. With these two courses on top of my normal workload it's going to be tough to find time for myself. Another reason why cutting those 2 hours a day spent on the train is so necessary. I think that if I have my own place, I'll really be able to sit down and just focus on what needs to get done. No distractions and less temptations.
I think that once things get better with my parents I'll come home for some weekends too, just so that I can still see the boys. Partying just won't be the same without them, and that's a fact. I'm really hoping for this summer to be better than the last, there was just too much bullshit.
Anyway, I need to shower and brush my teeth. It's so fucking nice out, I think I'm going to spend some time outside.
Laterdays.
