Hello, hello. It's been a while.

Most of my updates are now found at:

In general life news, I've been living on my own for a while now (since August 2011, which is exciting for various reasons), plugging away at degree things... Hopefully I'll be transferring to SFU or Dalhousie in the Fall to finish up my last year and a bit. I'd like to focus on sedimentology, but... we'll see.

I've been seeing someone for about ten months now... he's pretty great. We'll be moving in together later this year, but we essentially live together right now anyways... so there's that, I guess! We're waiting to hear back about his grad school applications right now.

I was sick last week... actually, I've been sick with colds and coughs and bronchitis and strep throat since about October or so, but last week the sinus infection that's been brewing inside me for a while got particularly nasty; the aches and pressure pains were painful, but what concerned me was the fact that touching my temples made me literally cry with pain. I ended up going to the hospital for a couple of hours, being given painkillers and antibiotics, and being sent home. I then spent the next week in bed because I couldn't stand up/move without throwing up. Messy and not fun!

The antibiotics seem to be doing the trick, though. I'm up and at 'em this week, with about another 3 days of antibiotics to eat. Om nom.

So, yes. Life is pretty okay right now. I've had some issues with my employer, but I'm trying to take that in stride and just move past it. This summer or next, I'd like to do some work related to sedimentary geology or geochemistry around Victoria or Vancouver, but I might just take more classes this summer and save that for next year. Field work is always fun, though.

Hope you're all well. ♥

Update time!

I am very much looking forward to work being semi-over in 3.5 weeks. For the most part, anyways... the last night for fireworks is the 4th of September. I'll probably end up being employed into October for a few days a week, which would be nice I suppose.

They've been trying to cut labour at work, so as a result most people's hours have been cut. I was lucky this week, but a few of my friends weren't.

A couple nights ago, I gave poledancing a try. One of the girls I work with used to teach it, so me & another friend from work went over to her place, had mojitos, and played on a pole. It was a lot of fun! My arms & core are still a little sore though, teehee. I also have bruises on the inside of my thighs. o_O;

I'm going to go kayaking today! Quite exciting, I haven't been in a few years (since summer camp, I suppose). My two friends who I'm going with have never been before... this will be entertaining.

I moved most of my things out of Brett's, I just have a chair and a couple boxes left to go and get. I don't want to talk to him. I think I'll go over tomorrow when he's at work, since I still have a key. Excellent.

Dave is leaving in 2 days for TN to see his girlfriend. He's gone for 3 weeks! I am going to be so very, very bored. Time to buy a pole?

Ooooh! I also bought my textbooks for the coming semester. Less than $250 for the lot... pretty good.

That's... that's all. Whee!
