Yesterday morning I went to an orientation at the Calgary Society of Independent Filmmakers and saw what they had to offer. I think I might join, but I'll have to wait until I have more money. I have other things higher on my list anyway, like SAIT classes, or some lessons or a gym membership … Continue reading A Saturday
Stories and Stuff
The Calgary Stampede kicked off this morning with the annual parade, and while I didn't officially go, I did have to cross the crowds, and closed-off, horse-poop-laden streets to get to work this morning. If you follow me on Snapchat you probably got to see it. I worked all day and forgot to pack a … Continue reading Stories and Stuff
Improvements
Sometimes it's good to get everything out. I looked at my rant and used it as a to-do list, improving everything I could in a day. Yesterday I ordered a chair online, cleaned my room, took my dog for a walk, fixed the slowness on my laptop, and signed up for stuff that'll get me out of the … Continue reading Improvements
My First Rant (About Everything)
My computer is getting slower by the day and it is driving my crazy. Also driving me crazy? My room. I don't have a chair for my desk so I have to bend over to use my laptop which is uncomfortable and probably bad for me. I have stuff all over the floor in an … Continue reading My First Rant (About Everything)
Now What?
Well, I don't have any school to go back to in September. I thought I might take some classes but that's not looking like it'll happen until May. I've got a part-time job, but as stated, it's only part-time. So what will I do the rest of the time? Before I started this blog, I … Continue reading Now What?
Uber-Long Post
Wow. I did not expect to be busy once back. The complete opposite, actually. The majority of my friends reside in other countries and I thought my social life would sag, at least at first. You always hear about people having trouble meeting up with existing friends and making new friends after university. Thankfully, I … Continue reading Uber-Long Post
London Day 3
The best way to know a city is to visit it alone and figure out your way around and what you like or don't like. I decided this when I went to Paris. It held true for London. My last full day of my three years in England was spent alone in this grand city. … Continue reading London Day 3
London Day 2
Siân and I got up bright and early with the goal of going shopping in London's one and only Camden Market. We were there for hours. For those of you who've never been, Camden is basically a town of small tents where people sell their wares. These tents are everywhere. And they sell everything. There is a … Continue reading London Day 2
London Day 1: Just Chilling
My last morning in Winchester was nowhere near as stressful as my first night, and I think it really shows how far I've come. A friend gave me and my four bags a ride to the coach stop, and when we were an hour early, he bought me breakfast in a nearby café. I took … Continue reading London Day 1: Just Chilling
A 26-Hour Day
My gosh, I've never felt so homesick in three years as I have in the past several hours. That's a good thing. If there's ever a time to wish you were home, it's as you're on your way there. As I write this, it is 9:12pm and I am in Toronto. In Calgary, it's 7:12pm. … Continue reading A 26-Hour Day
