The person you do the most ****** up things with?

 The person you do the most ***** up things with?
That's easy. Sydnaw.












These are all perfectly good examples.

There aren't even pictures of some of our adventures. 

When I eventually go to the US to visit chaos will ensue. :D

UGH! But GREAT!

Sorry, I kind of went on school/church induced hiatus. Tests and road trips and studying and homework. I also had a candy sushi night with some of my friends.
I'm going on another road trip to Oshawa this weekend.
So much for the 30 day challenge... I'll just go about it now on days I have time. Like tomorrow.

Well, Great news is; I got accepted for the Veterinary Assistant Program in Kingston for September 2011! I'm so excited!
This is the Program! It's not like the Vet Tech program. Because it's not focused on a lab settings. There are courses on lab procedures, but it's not in depth. It's more on the handling of animals and such.
:D!!
My First semester looks like this:
ANIM 10 Lab Animal Handling (45h)
ANIM 24 Introduction to Grooming (15h)
ANIM 26 Exotics (15h)
ANIM 41 Canine & Feline Handling Lab I (30h)
ANIM 115 Surgical Support Skills (30h)
ANIM 119 Pet Health 1 & Behaviour (60h
ANIM 125 Careers and Ethics (30h)
COMH 150 Computer Literacy (30h)
MATH 121 Mathematics (30h)
ANIM 112 Medical Terminology (30h)

Oh, They do Large Animal and Livestock in the spring. If you horse-folks are wondering.

And I think I'll be exempt from my Mathematics because I'm in it this semester, but who knows. It covers medical dosage for humans, maybe this math will be directed to medical dosage for animals. I don't think it'd be much different.
This schooling could potentially lead to me working with the OSPCA or something. Or just working in a vet clinic or owning a Pet shop. But Pet shops are just money traps that seem like good ideas, from what I gather. I think it'd be really awesome to go into something to prevent animal cruelty.

So, I told Joshua about this. I told him he isn't allowed to complain because Kingston is only 8 hours away, and not a 6 day car trip across the country like he is right now. He's a little upset, but he could always try to follow me up or something. I'm not staying home next year, I wanna travel too!

Asdofuhydsougfhsdgsdg!!! I am so excited and happy I got accepted!

My CRAZY Monday Nights

I'm on Day Four of the 30 Day Challenge
Usually my Mondays are pretty rough. Class at TEN!? What is this!? I would like to have a class at 12 or two instead!
It's not like my classes are hard.

I have Tuesdays off so usually I spend Monday night and Tuesday on my couch relaxing and studying for tests or doing homework.
Day 4: A Picture of Your night

Usually my nights are like this... So I mean it's not a crazy night by any means.

I got accepted into advertising, and I need to sort out how to transfer credits over to Kingston or whatever to see if I actually got accepted for Vet Tech and Vet assistant. Some reason they don't think I have my "High school or equivalent" for Bio and Chem. >:C

Either way, I am very happy I got accepted into Advertising. I am thinking I want to do that more now as I'm getting into the sciences like I am. We'll find out. Either or for the programs and careers is fine by me. Art or Animals. Both I have passions for.

Anyways, I should study for Bio for a bit. Have a good night guys!

Some College Experiences So Far...

Well...
I've been living on my own since School started, been payin' bills and getting groceries. Sometimes with the help from my dad. Okay, with a lot of help from my dad. But so far living on my own, I've encountered countless things that will stick with me for the rest of my life.

The Restaurant owner.
Now, I have nothing against immigrants to Canada, actually I quite welcome it. But I am with the views that when you come here you should realize things regarding your neighbours and so on and so fourth change when you go to a new country. I met the affectionately named "African Man" in an odd manner.
My tub somehow or another leaks down into this man's restaurant. Instead of being calm cool and collected, he runs upstairs, "WATER! IS LEAKING! INTO! MY RESTAURANT!!! STOP SHOWER NOW!!!" And goes back downstairs. First time ever meeting him.. Hello African man.
Now, my roommate Mac always wants to piss him off. But it's generally me dealing with him.
If I answer the door, it's the end of the world. Yelling and so on. If Mac answers the Door, he's Mr. nice guy. Or if Mac walks up behind me. I feel completely disrespected. I sometimes let the water leak down on purpose now too. >:(

The Street Cleaner of Doom!!!!111
Seriously, it's scary. Street-cleaners should not operate at 4 AM while I am nice and soundly asleep in my best. This vacuum from hell comes screeeeeaming down the road. It's given me nightmares and scared the crap out of my guests.
Luckily they don't operate in the winter, but soon, Hello Snowplow of Doom.

Thirsty Thursdays!
You know when I can tell it's 2 AM on a Thursday? Drunks. Drunk university students out roaming the streets.
I once watched from my window; Three guys were playfighting on the baptist church lawn. That's cool. All the sudden I hear somebody vomiting. While these three guys are wrestling and having a great loud laughing time, their buddy is puking in the church garden. Nothing like Sunday mass and "What's that smell?" When they're leaving.
One Thursday I heard a commotion to look outside to see a band of drunken hooligans stumbling down the road. The stop at a block of wet pavement surrounded by cones. Instead of walking through the wet pavement, or signing their names. They take the cones, place them on their heads and continue on down the road. I would later see these cones on various roofs around my area.

My mother.
My mother is pretty much banned from my house. She cleans. I threaten to kick her out when she comes here cause she'll start doing dishes or mop the freaking floor. I'm not lying. She's one of those people that scrub the bathtub before company come over, but then pulls the shower curtain over it so nobody can see it... O_o;;

My Bus Rides;
I honestly will have to make a blog post about my various experiences with Public transit.
I'll leave you with one. There's a magician that rides the bus every Thursday at 10:00 to go downtown. I have one of his cards. He looks like a vampire, no lie.

My roommate.
Mac is quite the interesting fellow. My friend Sydney's first meeting of him;
He had his shirt taken off and tied about his head so he looked like a Ninja, "The T-shirt Ninja" Luckily Sydney is used to our friends doing weirder stuff so she wasn't phased, much to Mac's disappointment.
Mac has also taught me the importance of butter while cooking. He's the prime example of a college guy trying to cook. JUST PUT IT ON HIGH AND WAIT TILL IT BURNS! Mmm. Sounds great and healthy.

Pasta and Chicken Nuggets;
I've come to realize, I buy these instinctively now at the grocery store. Even when my dad is insisting he pays for groceries, I STILL buy craploads of cheap chicken nuggets and Pasta.
Mind you, I'm a terrible cook and these things are really the only things I know how to make well other than perogies and egg sammiches and Microwaved Baked potatoes.
But My diet really consists of Coffee, lots of coffee, chicken nuggets, Pasta and some soups.
I'm so healthy. :>
Mmmm...
Best thing in the world<3


Missionaries.
Yep. I hang around missionaries. They stop by about once a week.No big deal, but I played a paper scissor rock tournament with them and my friend. I totally won. :D
We're also going sledding when it snows enough, Cause most of them are from the states and rarely get enough snow.
Originally when I met my first missionary friend, I thought I was going to be mugged. No lie. he came up to me,  while I had my earphones in and was waiting for the bus alone in the dark. Scared the living daylights out of me...

OH
I also encountered this fellow on a road trip.
I was wearing my Owl hat when I took this picture. I also waved.
I don't think I gave him the hooters he wanted...
Oh yeah. And School is going good. Except that last quiz I didn't do so hot on, but it's all still great.

I'm sure I'm missing a lot of stories.

Oh!? What's this!? My Neglected Blog!? (Photodump)

Well! I'm alive! I promise THIS time I'll be active.
Well, here's some photos and explanations of everything I've been doing.





 Alright; So, I've got quite the lovely, fat ferret at the moment. She's seriously HUGE! These pictures don't do it justice.
She's living with me at my apartment. I love her so much, and I think she's enjoying being the biggest animal in the house right now. She also gets spoiled freaking rotten.






 I've spent a lot of time with my family lately. I've been really learning to appreciate all the things they do for me. You don't really realize it until you move out on your own.




 Val is doing great, as usual. I've had her for a year, can you believe how far she's come!? It's a shame I only get to see her once in a while. My parents don't want to give her up. I remember when they didn't even want to see her. :P

I love my rescue Dog!





Oh, And I got two lovely russian boys! :D That is Boris up on the left, and Vladimir on the right.
They're quite handsome chubby fellows that are very content with riding in my hood all day.




The furry fandom. See that group of people? Those are people I love to spend time with to just be myself. I don't have to be afraid of being judged around them. That's what being a group of silly animals makes you. Do we look like sex crazed people that dress up like animals and kill eachother and end up on CSI?
I didn't think so. :)

 Oh my. Remember this boy?
Right now he's currently 3, 956 Kilometers away from me at this point in time. He's out in BC with the Navy doin' cool stuff on boats and stuff that he loves. It was also his birthday on the 2nd. He's going to love his gift!
Don't worry though. He'll be home Friday for four weeks! :D I'm so excited to see him. Distance really does make the heart grow fonder.

Anyways. I suppose I'll actually start to use my blog. I'll just try to keep up with Syd. :P
