Reuniting

This month my school hosted "Homecoming". An event where alumni return and pretty much party. Although I worked both weekends, I wasn't working the entire weekend so I got to see everyone in the evenings. It was amazing feeling to see everyone and hang out like old times. Only thing that did not make this weekend, was that my boyfriend was not here, but I don't dwell on the bad stuff.

Literature Review, how I hate thee

Having been doing too much over the past couple weeks. I have my proposal due in about 2 weeks and the Literature review is killing me. It is taking so long to read very similar projects over and over again.

At least this weekend will be a good stress reliever, with so many of my friends coming down. And then next week I get to turn the big 22. I don't want to grow up. Growing up includes responsibilities, papers and of course adulthood. Also I have just realized I am involved in way too many things: dodgeball, volleyball, 4 different clubs, one of which I am on a committee and one which is still pending. Insane! I also realized I really must save money.

I was hoping to take a trip to Europe this coming summer, but it looks like that won't be happening. I thought it over and I think I would rather not blow all my savings on 2 months of travelling and then end up broke. Instead I am thinking I'll save up and go to Europe later (perhaps after Masters).

Speaking of Masters I have undergone interviews. None of which really intrigue me... I think I may just speak with my supervisor now and end up staying here. As much as I wanted to move away, I feel like staying is the best choice for me: Its research I want to do and with a very prestigious supervisor.

Here is a beautiful picture of my beautiful travels in Banff, Alberta. Such an amazing time. I wish I could go back. I miss my boyfriend, the nature and I really want this constant feeling of loneliness to just stop.
