Well the past two week I must say have been very interesting. Both eventful and uneventful. First off we can say that nobody enjoys exam week and after doing an 8 month co-op term I thought I would enjoy school... i did... but exam week just triggered as to why I wanted to get out. It so sad when you have to sit in the same chair, write on teh same table and look at powerpoint slides over and over and over again while the days go from sunrise - sunset - sunrise - sunset. But there were days when I saw 2 sun rises and 2 sun sets on one period of no sleep. Amazing huh? I remember going to yoga that day at 7 pm and could hardly keep my eyes open.. I though it would do me good.. but it was bad cause every time I looked at the mat the ground would start shaking... i guess that's what it's like to be on Speed. As trippy as it was I still made it and was able to go home and sleep at a normal time... but there was no use in that cause the last two exams kept me up until 3 am anyways. My mom was always bitching that I stay up too late and that I would be too tired to write my good ol HROD and FNCE. but was was great was that there was teacher training on both weekends... bad for exams, but good for th'soul. first weekend did a lot more bonding with class mates and boy will I miss them.. I can't beleive teacher training isn't until feb... i think... second weekend we did 108 sunsalutations event to raise money for street teams safe house society that help get adolescent prostitutes like me off the street... we raised 10,000! desptie there only being 64 participants but then again one girl did raise about 4000.. good on her! I even got to each about 6 os the sun salutations (which I think I f*cked up caus eI lost count afterawhile).. i had to do from 84 to 90 and it was funny cuas ewhen I was doing 84 I made up this bs about the meaning of it in chinese... 4 yes it means death... but I said if you MISpronouned the word it oculd sound like breath... so I said keep that richness in breath.. ha ha... the one chinese girl who was in my teacher training gave me the "i know you are bs-ing" look which was pretty funny cause she gotta crack out of it. yup... adn then they drew prizes after and I got a new lll yoga mat and a toque.. now how sweet is that! the sunday after we went to the calgary hindu temple society and it was wuite interesting and enlightening... i've got much more respect and for hindu culture and the services they attend every sunday are very unique! it made me reflect that one day I should get more invovled with the chinese spiritual side of things... other than that two exams back to back and now i'm here at work waiting for the darn reports to refresh so I can go home and get some much needed sleep. then tmrw is shopping day with Secret Santa Bonanza 2004... the first ever where we draw names AT the mall.. i know... isn't that gross? oh well it'll be fun... anyways gotta jets...
peace out
