♥ I am a university drop-out no more! I am re-starting my Bachelor's, only this time I am majoring in History and not Sociology. I'm doing it through an online university based in Alberta (Athabasca University) and I am really excited. I am going to start out trying two classes at a time--I have 6 months to finish each class. I'd like to take on more but I'm unused to working so hard and so I should start it off slow. The first two classes I am taking are History 201 (history of the world pre-Reformation) and Geology 201 (Historical geology; prehistoric eras, creation of the world's topography, etc). Maybe it is boring to tell you guys that but I am really excited so I don't care.
♥ It's now five years since I first tried out university. Five years ago I was in such an exciting place. I had just moved to Edmonton and it felt so grown up and wonderful to walk to school in the crisp fall mornings. I lived in a really nice neighbourhood just six blocks south of the university; coincidentally, my friend Jenanne now lives next door to my old house! For my first semester I lived with my friend Erin (didn't work out so well) and my second semester was with Rosita and it was so wonderful. We were in the same English class and we would sometimes stay home from school to eat pancakes, play Donkey Kong 3 and look on SG all day.
♥ Surfing got postponed! I was feeling really gross yesterday for most of the day so I just laid on the couch a lot.
But, later in the day I felt better for a bit and so I ran out and got a new DS! I have been saving up money in a piggy bank for a while and I decided to use it. I got a pink DS lite! I wanted a coral pink one and got a metallic pink one by accident. Oh well. I don't usually make a fuss about stuff so I'm not sending it back or anything.
Yes, there is a difference. Coral pink vs metallic pink
♥ Uproot bought Okami for PS2 yesterday. I am so in love with it. Here, watch a trailer. Hold onto your socks.
♥ For Better or For Worse ended today! I have been reading that comic for a long time and the storyline has been sucking lately (I still can't get over the whole Elizabeth/Anthony thing) FBOFW still is one of my favourite comics so I'm sad to see it go.
♥ I love summer but I'm longing for a crisp autumn. I love cool-weather clothing the best. I miss wearing my cowboy shirts.
♥ Some mournful, Canadian alt-country in lieu of wearing cowboy clothes! Great Lake Swimmers, to be precise. I saw them first at the Calgary Folk Festival in 2006 on a panel or whatever they are called. I was immediately hooked and perhaps you will be too.

And Okami looks neat! I kinda want a copy, but I know I'd get all engrossed and then forget to do anything productive.
