Alex will be wrestling at:
- Commonwealth Wrestling Championships (London, ON) - June 16
- Canada Cup of International Wrestling (Guelph, ON) - June 23
- in Spain, for free - July
- probably the Canadian Olympic Trials (Etobicoke, ON) - December
I am unbelievably jealous about Spain. To go, though, he has to quit/turn down a job as a day sports camp counsellor (similar to the job he has now). My arguement: the job is only a month long and you will be telling your employer in enough time to hire and train somebody new. I am sure they'd understand and not cut you him of the running for next years' employees as he's done a good job with the current camp. A free trip to Spain? The international experience? How many free trips does one get offered in a lifetime? What if something happens and he gets hurt and can't wrestle or something and never gets an opportunity like this again?
Anyway, regardless, I am still very jealous. He got to go to Guatemala last summer virtually for free, too. Everyone seems to be travelling to Europe and Asia and everywhere (I know this via facebook). I just want to travel too! Maybe I'll make ridiculous amounts of money while substitute teaching and teaching summer school and go by myself *heh*

Job hunt is still on for that second job. Today I hit up Jacob Connexion and Chapters.
School is going to be so expensive this year! Tuition. Books. Residence/Rent. *grr*
