February 7, 2005.


As a way to delay going to bed I've decided I am actually going to update my blog. I really do suck at keeping this regular, but then I don't see a reason why I would need to commit too much to updating this since I tell everyone everything in person anyways, lol. Plus, it doesn't seem to me like I have many profound thoughts to share with people. Meaning there are profound thoughts that are too private and thoughts that are not profound at all. Damn, I really need to start thinking about world issues or something. Nah... I don't think that would be much like me. I don't like big arguments either, so I stay away from things that cause big arguments. I've also just noticed that I like going off on a tangent, which can be pretty fun. Wonder how long it could last if I haven't noticed.

Not actually a whole lot to be talking about in my life. I am still studying all the time, but I am feeling pretty motivated so far, so that doesn't work out too badly. I don't think I can adhere to my no-falling behind in work resolution. Calculus is like a black hole spitting out infinite amount of work to be done and in addition to all the algebra questions I am at least 2 weeks behind again. Of course I am planning to catch up with all that over the reading week, but it doesn't seem that the reading week holds enough time for me to do everything I'd like to. I'd like to do A LOT of stuff! I am already craving some reading, and my list on the left only grows... I am really looking forward to the summer.

I am also starting to look for a summer job now, though I am kinda lazy in applying because writing cover letters is a bitch. So far I've only applied for a few positions, but I am hoping to apply for some more as soon as I have a bit of free time and some writing motivation to make the cover letters. I would really love to get a job in the industry this summer... but I guess if I can't I can always fall back on receptionist/administrative stuff kinda thing. I mean I gotta be able to get a job easier now with all that experience, right? Looking at how difficult it is to get a job nowadays makes me wonder how I am ever going to make it anywhere... Well, that's my pessimistically-realistic outlook at least. There's also optimistically-realistic outlook that makes me feel better and to which I tend to stick when I write my cover letters.

I also had an intoduction to the world of poker this weekend. I was playing with some people from Waterloo and they taught me how to play Texas hold 'em. It ended up being pretty fun, though probably because there wasn't too much money at stake and also because I ended up getting the second place. Talk about newbie luck, it was totally unbelievable. Hehe, now I should really play again sometime just to see if my luck holds or not, lol. Though I wouldn't actually bet any money on myself, lol.

Well, I think I am running out of things to say, thus I must give up and go to bed now. Good night, my (probably nonexistant) readers.
