Argh! This stagnant, waiting-for-things-to-happen lifestyle is starting to really take it's toll on my body and I've got to get me to the gym. I just weighed myself and that was motivation enough. Tomorrow I'm gonna cycle and jog and lift thy weights! I'm even losing colour in my face.
What's the point in living in Montreal when you can't even afford to go out? Montreal is all about going out. This sucks.
I tipped my Dad off on a cafe/art gallery for sale in Quadra and I'm hoping it turns out to be successful. This is his life's dream: to run a coffeeshop/gallery and become part of an artists' community in a coastal town. He has always talked about this. Let's hope this dream can materialize.
I'm not sure if he's gonna carry through with his idea of returning to Montreal. That's fine by me but the idea of having a place to stay both in BC and Montreal was kind of exciting. Perhaps him staying in BC is a better idea considering I've decided that BC is where I prefer to live too. It's just so damned expensive. I wouldn't be able to take off months at a time like I have been here--despite the fact that it bites. Another good reason to start going back to the gym, it'll get me outta the house and cost nuthin'. Sheesh.
Still no word on JCU but I know it'll be soon. Jason got me worried about finances should I choose Australia. I may look into working a few jobs until June/July--that way I can at least pay for my own plane ticket and reduce the amount I may need to borrow. Perhaps I can pay for my own visa, too. And part of the tuition. Wishful thinking. Jason's right, though, acquiring debt is a whole lot easier than paying it off.
My Dad offered to pay for my ticket back to BC as a birthday gift! He fully supports my idea of returning to BC for awhile and head to Oz. Coming from Montreal he knows how reputable McGill is, so I value his opinion. He's so much like me--constantly seeking the next adventure, and changing direction all the time.
It's quite possible that tomorrow things will be completely different. My life evolves so quickly.
