Busy busy!
It’s been a while since I last wrote. I just thought I’d state the obvious.
From the last time I wrote: I have been hacked a couple more times, I had a job interview at Shopper’s Drugmart for a second job, handed in additional application information for Waterloo, went to a dance and a couple outdoor ed trips. Probably some more stuff I’ve forgotten in there too.
You’re probably wondering why I need a second job. Well that’s simple, for university. I’m not going to assume my parents are actually going to help out at all so I must save for myself. Also, my friend at the deli, Kelly, told me about Shopper’s and how much better it is than cutting up synthetic meat. You don’t need to wear a hairnet or a stupid hat!! I am truly excited about that part. The interview went very well and the manager seems to be a very nice guy. One thing in a job I personally look for is good management and nice people. He definitely meets the criteria so far. I’m pretty confident I’ll get the job.
As for University status, I’ve handed in this extra information they wanted, called an AIF [Application Information Form]. They just ask you generic questions about your marks (of course) and your hobbies and whatnot. I did one for the chemistry program and one for computer science. I don’t know what I’m going to do if I’m not accepted. I’m about 80% confident about the computer science, and I will most-likely get into chemistry. If I don’t get into waterloo at all, I guess I’m joining Ben back at high school next year
Outdoor ed has been exciting and go-go-go lately. We’ve been on two trips so far this year, with the third coming up on the 28th. The first was a ski/snowboard trip to Mt. Pakenham where it was mostly a leisurely ski/board for a few hours. Then yesterday we went on a trip to Camp Fortune to cross-country ski in the Gats (Gatineau Park). That was enjoyable. It was a perfect day for skiing except for the gale force wind that struck us whenever we weren’t in the trees. That was brutal. Other than that, it was a good workout and a good ski. My dad also came along in order to drive people up instead of taking the very expensive bus ride to get up there. The next trip on Wednesday is somewhere else in the Gats I think but it’s an overnight this time. No, not in tents outside. We get to sleep in a heated, fitted with an oven and stove, bunk bed, comfortable cabin. The only thing missing is the bathroom indoors - it’s outdoors. But thats ok, it has a heated seat. It will be a fun trip.
After the trip yesterday, I could have went home and soaked in the tub for hours but I went to the school’s only dance this year (except for prom later on). It was a fun dance. We actually had a real DJ come in this time from a local radio station so we didnt have a crappy little boombox on the stage to listen to (just kidding - it’s never happened). I was super tired before and after the dance. It took a bit for Harry to get into it, but I think he enjoyed it
This [long] weekend I need to write an essay and pack for the trip on Wednesday… I also need to pre-cook some of the food for the trip.

oh wow… I remember that AIF stuff. Ugh, now that I think back on it, applying to universities felt like needless heartaches and stress.
See if you can apply for OSAP. It helps me out a great deal. Pays for about 60% of my tuition.
Sounds like the dance was fun! Haha, I was on my high school’s student council, and seriously, dances are hard to plan because people don’t really like going to them. We’ve always had real DJs though.
