Wow so ive had 2 weeks of classes, ive finally sorted out my schedual and what courses im doing after a while of dropping courses and adding courses. Ive ended up doing Philosophy, Psychology, Womens studies and English, theyre all pretty interesting but the workload over here is so different than at home. We have a constant pressure put on us to do assignments and readings, i hadnt realised that this is actually a really prestigious uni and that people actually had to work their asses off to get in here. Seems a bit weird for me seeing as i do pretty much frig all!
Ok so i thought i shud add in school work at the beginning cause thats y im at university right?? ha! ive gotta remind myself to go to class most of the time. the past two weeks have consisted of me not making the varsity team, but im playing for a different team in the same league as them....we beat them last wkend haha! anyway, they (the vipers) only train once a week so it means i have lots of spare time to get involved in other stuff. And man i have, ive been busking on the street for cystic fibrosis, signing up for everything intermural (from longboating to ultimate frisbee), ive been learning to longboard. Then the weekends come and this place turns mad! football games, a concert with some pretty awesome canadian bands, bouncy castles and inflatable sumo wrestling, phrat parties. Friday nite our brother floor (floor above us) had a cowboy party, really mad with strobe lights, didnt last long tho, it got broken up at 10:30 wen the police and paramedics were called. A guy had taken pot that was laced with sumthin and was trippin out really bad then a couple of the guys kinda collapsed cause they drank too much.
Im planning on going to toronto for a long weekend at thanksgiving with my twin, Liz. Shud be an awesome weekend, she went to see system of a down last nite, said it was brill but man she smelled bad wen she got in.
Ive also been having really weird dreams, lots about racoons and boars chasing me! weird! oh and i have challenged myself, i have to catch a squirrel before the end of 1st year....there are so many of them. i also saw a skunk (i ran very quickly) and loads of racoons!
Anyway, i needa start some reading!
