Wow, I just re-found this thing. If you've stumbled across this, and you know who I am and want to catch up with me, I'm now well established over at livejournal. Find me at http://lauriegilbert.livejournal.com.

Man do I ever suck at updating this thing. Guess I'm not a very devoted blogger. A lot has happened since my last post though so here it goes. . .

School is going good, but I'm already behind. I've done one presentation already for my Asian American class and my group got the highest mark in the class! Yeah us! My other class is not going so well. . I've only really been to 2 out of five classes. And they are 3 hours long so I'm kind've behind there.

The trip to Stratford that I've been organizing has been a HUGE headache. First we couldn't sell enough tickets, and now we have people desperate for seats and we are sold out. UGH! BUT, it is the first money making event in the history of the Comp. Lit. Society! Yeah us again!

Since Banger Sisters I have been to the movies a few more times. . Sweet Home Alabama rocks, as does My Big Fat Greek Wedding. Everyone should go and see both!

I went home for Thanksgiving weekend and for the first time in 5 years actually enjoyed myself while there. Robin and I didn't kill each other, I got to get out of the house, I got to practice my driving, I saw friends, and I didn't have to take the stupid jammed packed bus either way!

In other news, I'm sick. I have a horrid sore throat that affects my speech, and yet I have to talk all the time due to work. Ugh.

And last but most certainly not least. . I have a new job. I now work for Young Drivers of Canada (and am still working at Stokes. . for now). I work at the regional call centre and now make 5 dollars more an hour than I made a Stokes. YEAH!

Well, that's my life. Leave comments on my life or tell me about yours! I want to hear from you all!

Tuesday night I went to see the Banger Sisters with some of the girls. It was a lot of fun and the movie, although different than I expected, was really really good. I have also had my mind forcibly turned towards thoughts of what I'm doing next year, so I have been spending a lot of time researching teachers colleges and will soon be looking into grad schools as well. Ugh, research about schools, where I'll be doing more research. . .can it get much worse?

My new house is working out well so far. The worst thing so far has been having ants in our food cupboard, there have been no personality conflicts, yet! I am hoping that it stays this way for a long time.

I got both good and bad news on the phone last night, and as is always the best way, bad news first. One of my friends was dumped last night, and I sent my love out to her. She's been going through a rough time and I just want her to know that I care about her and am thinking about her. And now the good news. . . Hilary is now working at Stokes! We managed to get her an interview before Sarah (my boss, who doesn't hire friends) realized we knew each other, and by then it didn't matter if we did, as long as we can work together. I'm excited about having someone I know and can joke around with working with me, so congrats Hilary! :-)

Well, apparently I'm going to be a once a week blogger. . .then again not much happens in my life worth blogging either. I mean, the highlight of my day so far has been reading the crap that others are posting on their blogs about fights between some of my former housemates. I mean, grow up people. . if you don't like each other, just move on with your lives and forget the others exist. Now, before anyone screams at me why did I go if I don't care, I was told by a friend I had to read it. It is the first time I have visited either blog in months.

In other news, I'm going to Great Big Sea!!!!!!!! Yeah! And I've booked my first road test for my licence! I'm not telling anyone when it is though, no matter how much you pry you will not get that information out of me! :-) Just wish me luck and then forget I ever mentioned it.

Tuesday night I am going to see "The Banger Sisters" with some friends. I'm really looking forward to it! I hope it's a good movie. I'll let you know soon.

Man am I tired. Between school starting up again and working 44 hours this week at the mall... I don't have much of the time I usually need to relax. Oh well, money is a beautiful thing. Not much is new in my life. My new housemate Nicole decided to drop out of school this week, so now Karen is moving in. . YEAH! She moved in today but has gone out to the bar for the night. Umm. . I can't think of anything else to say right now. . maybe I will later. We'll see how long this blog lasts. . .
