.. or is it?
I've lost my childhood wonder of christmas at this point now. This year in particular is different because there's no coming home, no concept of being home for christmas. It's really odd for me to be in Toronto and not have to travel 'home'. The really sad thing is how all my classmates, from all over Canada, get to go home. To their real homes.
Everyone was so happy and looking forward to it so much. I've just been here...
Ok, I'll stop complaining now. I've become so selfish, even my friends (ok, just Rob) remind me how others have it so much worse.
In better news, exams went really well for me, I saw my marks today. Last Friday night was pretty ridiculous. I've been spending some quality hours in the gym. I need to join a tennis club asap. I finished my christmas shopping yesterday. I saw "The Holiday" on Tuesday and WICKED on Wednesday.. both are amazing. I want to go to the Royal Ontario Museum at some point (I was going to go today, but I was too lazy so I went shopping instead). And maybe the zoo...
I'm excited to start the new year. I want to learn.. I want to study smarter. I also want to play lots more tennis. And I'm super excited for the school ski trip, not to mention the annual Montreal gong-show with Western Model UN.
Every year I make one New Year's resolution: make good decisions. This year, I'm throwing that out the window and I'm not going to feel guilty for the (perhaps)questionable things I do. I'm sick and tired of caring about everyone, especially those who don't care about me. I'm going to be utterly selfish, why, you ask? Because I can.
I know when I'm in practice I'll have serious worry issues and I'll be thinking about my patients all the time, so I figure from now I'm going to get everyone's shit off my back and just think about myself for once in my life while I can...
Good night, I hope everyone has a very Happy Christmas and if you don't celebrate Christmas, I'm sorry :)
