What's up?

Soo...

I'm going to be working till December now at the same job at the Children's hospital where I don't spy on, poke at, put to sleep or even really see little kids. Those are all just rumors. I will be at school on Fridays taking the one class that is required for my program. That is they cancelled one and I took one last year so this is the only mandatory one left for this semester.

I've been to the new campus. I think it looks pretty cool although it appears as if all the design students are not big fans. They're quite critical, those people.

I've now spent 3 nights at Gordo's pad/clubhouse/cousin's place he is watching for a couple weeks. Two of those times were kind of spur-of-the-moment-lets-go-to-Po-Co-and-maybe-Safeway-and-lets-hope-no-one-notices-i'm-wearing-the-same-clothes-tomorrow fun times. Watched two movies every time which is pretty cool. That adds up to 6 movies by the way, and I hadn't seen two of them. Taxi Driver was kind of messed up with a young Robert DeNiro that looked like Bill Pullman and who had a character that wasn't very bright. Signs was fairly good although there didn't seem to be much to the movie...kind of anticlimatic I thought.

Camping trip 2006

Camping completed! It was an awesome trip featuring...

a lot of swimming (including shampooing) ,

a "shocking" hike under powerlines with walkie talkie action, and entirely too little boating (considering we brought a boat).

...And some people who were there....

It was all good fun and no one snapped although I did lose my wallet...for the second time in three years and it's a pain in the ass to replace my cards (this time I lost my Carecard too which is good secondary ID).

Now on to the second phase of my vacation...here on Saturna island...

Job/Camping/Life

Ohhhhk, so after a little twisting of my arm by the Coop coordinator for SFU Surrey, I have decide to remain at my job until December. Well, there are many reasons to do it, but that was the final one that made up my mind. That, and I will still take one class at SFU Surrey, thus seeing my friends and hanging out in the new campus which should be much better than the old campus. It may take a little getting used to though. Plus...knowing me, well knowing my group of friends, I will end up staying at school really late and hanging out.

Despite what the Surrey newspaper said, this is not the mezzanine of the new campus.

Since I'm going to school for only one class, I 've also decided not to be a Peer Educator (the volunteer position I had last year). I'll probably still help out with some events, but I'm not going to do any weekly hours. Some of my friends think this is good...as they are almost anti-volunteerists.

Now for something completely different...tomorrow we're going camping...and by "we" I mean Rob-Murray-Gordon-Greg-Alex-Erin-Nate-Aaron-Brad-Tanya-Q-Laura and I. It's just like Whistler's group except we now have Tanya instead of Jessica, Laura instead of Danielle, Q instead of Adam, and Aaron instead of Kyle or Parkes. You know...practically the same group.

It's going to be a blast, I can feel it EVEN THOUGH we're not even there yet and Rob has yet to light the fuse on anything.

Speaking of Rob, I will probably be living with him and Q and Oliver starting sometime in the next month. It's going to be interesting to say the least. I may end up doing all the cleaning while the others do the cooking, and I may like it that way.

Sweat

I call this weekend...the weekend of Sweat. I am glad it is over, although perhaps I lost some weight? I went running both mornings and spent a lot of time going from place to place outdoors (where it was HOT). Hey, even indoors was quite hot.

Decided to shave on Friday night, and then also went and got a haircut on Saturday afternoon. Thus, I am as z! put it..."clean" now.

I am probably one of the few people to see both Clerks II and Monster House in theaters this weekend, as that's a very odd combination.

Oh, and Shea...sorry about the...uhh...joke. She knows what I'm talking about.
