June gone???Sunday, June 28.This page HAS to be updated more often. You'd think with all the online time I've amassed during the past little bit, I would have the decency to update this page once in a while, eh? Well, I'm trying to make up for lost time. What have I done in the past little bit? Well, yours truly has accumulated a heckuva lot of time in my workplace. I'm doing my time in a local community pharmacy. It's a prelude to my future vocation. Sure, it's not a glamous job but can certainly pay the bills. No need to complain-- at least not yet. I also went up to TO last weekend (not this one). It was exciting. Went up for a birthday celebration, a friend's BBQ, and met up with classmates, new and old. Glad to see the bunch. It's a shame I don't go up more often. Time and $$ contraints keep me from travelling. What do to? Life of the starving student really stinks. |
Another entry?Monday, July 30.Sorry folks. Just a tease message-- since I wrote the last entry before midnight, and now it's past that time, I'm cheating for a 2 for 1 this time... Two months...Saturday, July 5.Time cannot go any faster for me... I can't believe more than two months have gone by in Windsor and I feel as if I've hardly done anything this summer. Sure, I went on vacation and visited TO a couple of times, but accomplishments? Nothing really! Academically, the marks weren't so great in first year pharm. I tried but not to my fullest. Even though I knew how important it was, I didn't apply myself-- it feels as if I'm short changing myself and what I can accomplish with school, but I also feel as if I'm cheating myself if I don't do extra- curricular things as well. School centers around education but it's not the whole picture, is it? I thought university was to teach someone the world and its possibilities. If you just go to class and study, aren't you neglecting the other things an educational institution offers? Meeting new people, doing things that you can't do in your home town, learning to be a 'person', not just a student. Well, that's how I console myself on how crappy I did in school. I did a lot while away in school. I still have more to accomplish before my 4 year program is up, that's for sure. |
