So I've finally decided to join the masses of asian people and get a Xanga blog...I've gotten bored with my livejournal blog and have, for the most part, stopped posting there. Also, my parents and brother know about my livejournal blog but not about my xanga so this means I have more freedom to write whatever I want here...mwahahaha!
So what's new with me...I passed up yet ANOTHER opportunity to go fishing at Rice Lake this weekend. This is bad since fishing and going out to the country is something I've done every summer since before I can remember (I think I was still a fetus when my family starting going to Rice Lake). It's been such a huge part of my life that I feel like part of me is missing if I don't connect with nature at least once a year. Perhaps the beaches will have to suffice as "nature" this year...
School's still busy and I still have to get started on a whole bunch of term papers but they're not due until the 2nd week of August so it's kinda hard for me to get started. I have to got to stop procrastinating...
Work at the insurance brokerage is still tedious and boring but now I have something to occupy my time! I'm still tutoring math Friday nights. I don't mind that I'm sacrificing most of my Friday nights to teach little kids...I actually have a few kids there who follow me around EVERYWHERE...hehehe
I'm still volunteering at the Bloorview MacMillan Children's Centre in the hospital section. I volunteer there Wednesdays AND Thursdays now. I love the fact that on Thursdays, when I'm doing childlife, I get more freedom in deciding what to do with the children. I don't mind that sometimes I come home with clothes that smell like stomach contents...or that I can't move because I've had to bounce babies for 3 hours. The smiles on their faces make everything worth doing (as cliched as that sounds).
I'm going out for gelato with Dru, Lillian, and maybe Carl? Should be fun...I hope I'M still fun after working 12 hours... |
