Jade Down Under

First week of the second semester is almost over and its been pretty mellow. I only go to school 3 days a week (M/W/F) and only for 3 hours per day. lol... intensive... yeah. Obviously it gets a little more hectic when we are in practicum but I think that also stems from having to get up early and not sleep 10 hours per night. Our bodies automatically get stressed. I should probably start preparing my body now but sleeping is way too much fun.

I received an email from Lorraine this morning, who is taking care of the house while my parents are in Australia, it turns out that my course books for a Behaviour Management course that I'm taking in 2 weeks were sent to my Canadian address. Now, who in their right mind thought that address would be the appropriate one to send a student's books? This University dumbfounds me sometimes. Guess I'll have to look into that today when I go to my 3 hours of class.

So far this week I've spoken with both Manda and Kimmy and I hear my group back home is all growing up... ahhhh..... I've also been warned that there may be an excess of baby showers, engagement parties, house warming parties and what not, when I get back. All this adult stuff makes me feel... adult. If only I were a kangaroo and could pause life.

I have flashbacks of my childhood and my dear Gramps often telling me 'life is too short to be bored,' after I whined for the millionth time how booorrreeeddd I was. It's too bad that it takes an adult mind to fully understand the advice of your elders; some of them actually know what they are talking about.
