Well, I was going to make this entry all deep and meaningful….but after all my studying for math lab exam, engg 100 exam (what is that going to be on??...such a pointless class), I seem to have forgotten most of what I was thinking about. I guess I just see how this goes.
So, yesterday (or considering the time, 2 days ago), I was working in Cameron(a library on campus) on math/physics assignments with Lauren and a bunch of the guys we’ve been hanging out with in engineering. It was quite the eyeopening afternoon…let me tell you. Guys have quite interesting conversations. They somehow got onto the topic of distractions, which lead to a busload of apparently naked girls which arrived at one of their houses. They went on about that for a while…and about how they could go for something like that about now. Except this one guy, Nick, who was like yeah maybe a couple weeks ago…but after some visit he had with his g/f he was like no way, which quite surprised me actually. I just don’t understand the workings of the male mind….then again who does???? It made me realize that most guys really do have their minds on one thing, except for the select few with g/f….but maybe they still have only that one thing on their mind the entire time they’re with the girl. How in the world am I gonna find that guy, that actually cares about more things than getting some from a girl….honestly!!!!!!!!!!! Maybe I will just become a nun….a lot less to worry about!
Something else I was thinking about today was how naïve I was until university. I mean honestly, I have finally realized just how lucky I am to have a family that supports me in whatever I do. My friend Kat, is becoming worried about how she is going to afford to live for the month of Dec….apparently she doesn’t have enough money to make it till Christmas….I can’t even imagine that. She’s been talking about staying here to work, in order to be able to afford to live for the rest of the year instead of going home for Christmas. I guess I can understand how priorities work, but at the same time, she is from small town Saskatchewan (like most of the people here), and hasn’t seen her family since the end of August.
Real life is scary!!!! The fact that you are no longer dependent on your parents for everything and no one is there to take care of you if you screw up, or just misjudge finances. All the decisions I’ve been making lately have been life related. Like, the rest of my life depends on the fact that I’ve decided to transfer out of engineering, and assume that I will get into the OT program in another year. There are so many “what ifs” to worry about. Think about it, all through out grade 12 you are pressured to decided what you want to do with the rest of your life…where you want to continue your education…and what you want that education to be…at the same you have to worry about doing well enough in all your courses to get into the program that the rest of your life depends on. At the same time though, there is always the chance to change, if you really hate it…except for the money issue to deal with.
Anyway, I think I’ve lost most of my train of thought…at least what I was thinking about writing…oh well maybe next time it will be deeper and more meaningful, but now it is off to bed for me.
