pie_rat's ponderous ponderings
alliteration is your friend! :D
Back to school, back to school...
... to prove to dad I'm not a fool. I've got my laces tied up tight, I hope I don't get into a fight.. XP

'Sup, Gaia? I can't believe the summer is over. ;__;

I had a pretty good (potential) last summer ever. Played some video games, watched some movies, read some books. Yep. I worked kind of a lot, but I guess that's ok. I managed to save enough money so that I can (mostly..) afford to quit my job at the end of September. Soyeah. That's a little scary to me. I really really like the bakery, and I hate the idea of just eating up my savings all year.. but I also hate the idea of, like, not getting into grad school to make a few extra bucks. Sooo, I'ma quit at the end of the month. How scary.

Otherwise, life is fine, if uneventful. I have some exciting classes this year, although exciting also means potentially horrible, if I learned anything last year. @_@ But oh well. Last year of undergrad! surprised

I'm still really up in the air about what exactly to do about grad school. I see myself making an entirely uninformed decision sometime pretty soon - that's just what I did for undergrad, only this time, it's probably going to entail me moving halfway across the province. Oh well. n__n;; Right now, my top (uninformed, potentially infeasible) choices are Western or Guelph/Waterloo. Western piques my interest because they've got a pharmacology program.. the only problem with that is that I love one half of pharmacology and loathe the other half... soo it may not be the best career choice. I randomly decided that I'd be most interested in Guelph/Waterloo for more chem-oriented stuff, which makes their joint program seem more appealing to me. I also know quite a few people in either city, which would prevent me from being entirely lonely, since I tend to hate meeting people. My brother and my good friend are trying to talk me into applying to Carleton.. but, like, I kinda don't wanna. >_> I don't want to leave either of them, but I do kinda want to leave Ottawa, if only for my master's. I feel like if I don't leave soon, I'll just end up lazing around here for the rest of my life without even making another effort to leave, and I know that one day, I'd regret spending my entire life in one city just because I'm lazy and a chicken. :/

Ah well. Such is life, I suppose.
