In the four hours that I have been in school today, I have only read 30 pages from the textbooks. "Only"???! If you think I'm crazy for saying that, let me let you in on a secret you may or may not already know: in university, 30 pages is a little, 60 is just right, 90-120 is pushing it unless you have a midterm. This is to say you're doing it all in one seating, complete with highlighting, note taking, etc. Why am I in school on a Friday in the first place? Okay, I don't have school on Fridays, but today I decided to stay here because I thought it might motivate me to do my reports. Did my plan work? 30 pages. So no. Also, I have not touched the reports I have started the other day.

It's Canada Day long weekend! Monday is a holiday (I already have Mondays off so..) but it seems that I will be stuck at home because I have a midterm and a draft due the following day. How F-U-N! I feel tired and I just want to sleep. Why doesn't Kwantlen have a "resting room" again? I'm sure a couple of beds for tired students who have long breaks will find that handy.. and beer taps in front of classrooms too. According to my professor, that would be really nice. Hear, hear!

And now, a list. of whatever:

1. I was in Vancouver Island last weekend with my family. We stayed in a nice hotel in Sooke, BC, went to the Butchart Gardens again, and went to see Royal Roads University. Possibly the best looking campus I have ever seen! Peacocks, deer, and swallows roaming freely. Plus, X-Men's Xavier Institute for Mutants! Pictures soon.

2. I think I'm back on track. I started the summer semester not having the grades I want on my works, but I think I'm back. I hope I really am. We have a little over a month left and I really need the motivation. Let's do this! Let's keep that GPA up, up, UP!

3. I have my schedule for next semester. It's going to be fun. I'm very excited. I got the writing class I need, and my final 1100 elective. :)

4. CANADA DAY WEEKEND! Forecast says it's going to be hot, hot, hot this weekend! Good news for most people, not so much for me. But hooray, no rain!

5. I feel more positive +++ energy now! Disregard my previous entry. Nega-Joey is a no-no ever.
