LIFE ALERT! PUNCH IN THE FACE!
Well wow that was rough.
Moved countries... got a new place... trying to get a new school*, trying to get a job... I've applied for so many things and am trying to pimp myself out for tutoring** and freelance artsy work... signed up for a family doctor, opened a bank account... I'm so pro-active, I'm scaring myself. Guess it makes a difference to be in a country where I actually have rights. You're decent, USA, but at least I can work here. At go to a hospital if I get my face mashed in.
It's the start of the week so it's too early for much of anything to come to fruition, but I've been aggressively getting things done since my first day back in Canada, so for me it feels like I've been waiting forever. I'm still waiting for my cheques and credit card. WORK FASTER, BANK. What? National holiday? THIS IS MY CARING FACE -------> =(
I switched majors, too, because everything was taken at the school I applied to. It's the most random goddamn thing, too, and that sucks because I've decided I really want to do biotech. :( I want to play God in a laboratory damn it! I love microbiology <3 <3 <3 But at the point I'm at, I know that my random-ass transcripts aren't my fault and will probs require me to take summer classes or even a fifth year to finish a Bachelor's degree in Biotech. I've come to terms with it. Life's not going to stop sucking anytime soon.
But... boyfriendface came up to visit for two days and it was amazing. Casino, night club, ribfest, pubs, hotel... we had a damn good time. Ilubb :)
And I discovered Alex Clare :D "Relax My Beloved", "Up All Night", "When Doves Cry", and "Sanctuary" are my recs. And I've been easing off of Ellie Goulding and Florence + The Machine (thank god). Plus, I got the entire White Stripes discography, so even though I had only ever listened to Icky Thump previously, I might give the rest of it a go soon.
Don't get me wrong though... I'm sad beyond all hell to leave NH... I miss a lot of people already. It was a really great place. But I was a prisoner there: couldn't work, couldn't drive, couldn't live without depending on others. Still... I really miss boyfriendface. Hopefully I'll see him soon.
* It's a disaster. There's a province-wide strike of support staff and guess who's responsible for my fee invoice? YEAH. Can't get my classes until I pay that, but oh dear, it's the first day of classes and it's still not here ~ <3. How magical. Fuck my life.
**Seriously, I can tutor practically anything. Programming? Can do. Anatomy & Physiology? Yep. Ancient History? Taught myself, I love it. Auto Maintainance? I CAN TEACH YOU THAT. For real. I'm a jack of all trades but master of none.
