Here we go, Here we go, Here we go.

Somewhere along the way we said we would update more often. Hm.
It seems that a lot of the craziness of the first few weeks of school has past, and now we’re back into some sort of routine. That is, until we fly home in less than two days. Which we’re both super pumped for. Just knowing over the past few weeks that we’d be heading home to rejuvenate for a week in October made everything way easier. Not that things were difficult. Coming back to a place that was already “yours” was way easier than having to move again (a la last September). And only doing three courses makes things a little bit easier, and makes it easier for me to participate in non-class related things (ie. school doesn’t get in the way of my education as much).
Since I’m (hopefully) graduating in April, I’ve also spent a lot of time thinking about graduate schools. The easy part (deciding that I want to go) is done, so I’ve been trying to find out information about a bunch of different programs at a couple different schools. One of the biggest problems is narrowing down the field I want to look at. I’ve been a little fed up with studying math for a little while now, so I know it’s time for a change to something different. I had an awesome time at my summer job (er… month long surprise job?) at the Environmental Policy Institute at GrenfellĀ so I’ve considered some sort of Environmental Studies program. Urban Planning and Post-Secondary Studies have been in the mix for a while as well. There are a couple schools that I’ve been looking at for each program, but I haven’t figured much else out. I’ll fill you in when something, like a decision, happens.
Currently, I’m most looking forward to going home. I have tomorrow off so I’ll be heading downtown to pick up some last minute things and perhaps eat some spicy food… or some raw food… or sushi… which in some respects could fall under the raw category. Either way, if you’re in Newfoundland, see you in a few days!
