what I should be doing ...
... is finishing my paper for Saturday's conference. But instead, I thought I should give a brief update on my happening and whereabouts. Its funny because when I was leaving Halifax last Wednesday, I felt a little sad to be coming to Calgary. I don't know why, particularly because I would be back in a couple weeks, but I wasn't in the mood to pack and travel. Now that I am leaving Calgary, I am feeling a little sad again.
The trip was much too short as I was trying to squeeze it in between the end of my class this semester and the conference I am going to this weekend, but on top of that, I had a pile of marking and a conference paper to write. [Marking is done, for the most part and the conference paper is half done, but I am going to finish my presentation on the plane tomorrow]. I only went out a couple afternoons, and I spend my days working! Even my mom said that she would prefer that I leave the work in Halifax next time I come ... although, I am unsure when that will be. I only saw my grandparents twice, only saw Helen once, one quick trip to Edmonton and only went out once for dinner with my parents. No time to workout, no time for shopping or even hanging out at my favorite places. So frustrating!
Oh, and then my poor laptop finally crapped out on me. But of course, it did so at the worst possible moment, when I couldn't fix it. Because I desperately need to work on my presentation on the plane, my dad was sweet enough to lend me his laptop to take to the conference! I feel so guilty, because he was so excited to have his own laptop when he bought his, but now I am taking it! :(
Anyways, I (hopefully) will be over this frustration when I get to Toronto tomorrow.
