i want things

Sigh... the Oil lost tonight. Next week: retribution. Hockey party at our place!!!

I number my thoughts in a lot of my blog entries and this will not be an exception:

1) I have worked one whole week now in Calgary. So far, I'm bored out of my mind reading manuals, specs and project descriptions. I need actual work. I don't care if I have no idea how to do the calcs, I want work SO BAD. At least almost all of the other students are having the same issue with an excess of boredeom. The other coop students are really nice and I like the student atmosphere. I've never had enough students to actually hang out together. Another good thing about my job is that I get every second Friday off so WOOOOOT for that.

2) Living at our house in Calgary has been pretty darn awesome so far. Go roomies!!

3) I'm poor. I have been spending way too much money recently and I need to stop. But first, tomorrow I'm heading to the mall to order my new shoes. I've been eyeing them for so long and they're on sale so I'm just going to buy them.

4) DDR is kinda addictive. Especially Ducking Hardcore Mixes of It's A Small World.

5) Recently I've noticed a jump in my desire to have things. This is bad especially since I have no money to spend. I think it has to do with the fact that I'm away from home so I have more liberty to spend my money the way I wish without my mom breathing down my back all the time.

6) I <3 Muse.

7) I hemmed almost all my pants today!!!! I'm so proud of myself. I still haven't cleaned my room in Calgary... I actually can't see half the floor.

8) I miss Edmonton and knowing where everything is... Calgary is becoming more familiar to me though so this is a good sign.

9) I <3 (natural) red hair.

10) A note about our house. It's pretty sweet I must say for students; however, the sound travels through the walls like water through a sieve. It's pretty strange. We have held conversations across the house while being separated by no less than four walls. Sleeping in is quite difficult when everyone else is leaving the house for work; I have determined that from first hand experience.
