Rambling

We had a Grand Opening at work yesterday which was kind of cool. A couple of Hockey players came to sign autographs and stuff. The only thing I am not happy with is the late finishes, but it helps me fit other stuff in during the mornings. Have started volunteering again which is kind of fun. Miss the teacher from last terms class though....bad.  My second job is ok, but crazy busy in the mornings when I am there which I find difficult because I am still learning what I am doing and it gets hard to find time to breathe and for them to do any proper training except just sit me down with a book and say read this. I am wondering if the getting up at 5.45 is worth it when I am only working 20 hours extra a week. My first pay was crap cos it was only for 22 hours (a weeks worth). At least a proper fortnight will be 40 hours pay and double what I got.... I just need to keep my road trip in perspective. It is for a good reason in the long term. I am also going to the hockey next week to see the Oilers play the Flames in a pre season match which should be really good. I am really excited about that. I guess things are starting to get more enjoyable now I have things to do and keep me busy. Too much time to myself makes me think too much and over analyse which is unnecessary.

I have to do a 2 to 5 minute talk on Aussie in the class, and have no idea what I am going to say...f***.

The other thing I am looking forward to is the Word Fest in Calgary in October. I am volunteering there for a weekend and super excited about that. Will hopefully get to meet some writers and possibly make some contacts.......you never know.
