    Well the first day of training is over and done with for the new job. Unlike last year we have two days this time around. We will commence with some driver training in Oakville tomorrow. Following those proceedings will venture into the unknown of Arthur and acquire trucks for use over the summer. I know what I'm getting but I'll leave that as a surprise. I'm tired, these full 8 hour days are going to take some adjusting to. Hope all is well both here and there. G'day.

    I haven't been able to post in a few days as my idiot box computer hasn't been able to find my parent site and therefore I haven't been able to edit it. As this is the only way to add to my lore based on my limited internet knowledge I was effectively stymied. This has resulted in a mild build up of my aforementioned lore. I will attempt in the following to alleviate this buildup with winding of many tales into one seamless and crafted fabric. Alas I begin......

    Firstly let us travel figuratively back through time. Back to the weekend. The Mayor was here and all was well. He took us out many meals and assumedly enjoyed our first rate hospitality. The next morn I received a call of distress from the patron saint of overworking...The Big T. He suggested that I travel back to the Great White North for a few days with the Hawken clan and return with him in time to study for my final showdown with the hated overlord Biochemistry. The prospects of time for preparation to defeat the overlord were excellent and I thought nothing could stop me on my quest. I did not choose to ride with the mayor but with Annie as it was more convenient for all involved as she too was traveling on that fateful day. We arrived alive and for the next two days I was at the beckon call of the Big T. Little time did I have for study. We returned late in the night with the eve of my final showdown looming on the morrow. The time I had was not enough and the likes of the evil Biochemistry were not totally destroyed. Will he be back? Only time....and this post....will tell.

    In other news, we found out last night that our residence for next year will be in Unit 14 rather than Unit 86. This would make us neighbours with the infamous Mike Ward. Hi yo! That assuming that he gets off his ass and procures lodging at that establishment. The prospects of Unit 86 are not lost though. We will have access to that dwelling as well for the first two months while construction is completed in the bowels of Unit 14. This means, as you may have guessed, that we will have 2 houses for a time. How cool is that? I find it to be cool. There are others who are skeptical. One final note....I'm jumping to a conclusion cause I was interrupted and lost all trains of thought.....I am reading a really interesting and cool book called The Second Messiah by Knight and Lomas. It is the second book they've written. I didn't link the title. If your intrigued then you must search it out on your own as the subject matter is sometimes offensive and this site is not about overtly offending people, even if it could be really fun. I didn't do it though. Alright, I'm diving back into it now. Consider the back log terminated. Over and out.

    Hey all. I'm on the brink here. Exams are winding down, just one left so far. I'm doing ok on them so far, no bad performances. This next one is the hard one though. So its a beautiful Saturday here, I'm fresh off aMandarin meal last night and a good film, Sin City. Things are good. We're expecting the Mayor for supper tonight so hopefully it will be good times all around. I had a good chat with my old chum Mike Ward the other day. The kid is still a hoot as always. I've got some time on my hands so I've been playing XBOX most of the day. I've won the Stanley Cup and now I'm into the off-season. Things, like I say are good. We're going to play catch in the park soon. Hopefully it won't be filled with hosers and posers. Good times to all and to all a good day. I SAID GOOD DAY!!!

    Its hard to believe that we're coming up on half way through April. Time is soaring by at a pace I've never reckoned possible. This sunny weather must be to blame. You sit out in the sun for a few minutes and the next thing you know its been 3 hours. I don't even know where the time goes. Probably down south to party for a delayed Spring Break. I'm currently learning about managing grass. Its horribly boring. Exam is tomorrow bright and early. I got some marks back for the class I attended the least. Turns out I had a 56% without even writing the exam. I don't think I've ever passed a university course before the exam period. Big day for me. I'm caught up in laundry and my room is clean. I also found out that I'll be getting a good sum of money back from tax stuff. I like that, maybe I can buy the computer I always dreamed of, or a new TV if Brown pulls out. Well I feel I've wasted enough time typing this and should actually get down to work now. Procrastination is real problem for kids these days. Alrighty then, hope you all enjoyed the Royal wedding and the big funeral. Only two more weddings needed and then we can make a movie about it all. No? Too soon?

    Ok, so I'm done class now. And I've already written a final. Just got back in fact. I haven't felt that satisfied with a test since I wrote my finite exam back in high school and nailed it shut. Hopefully the rest are closed down as firmly as that one was. I now have until Monday morning to prepare for the next one. I just have to acquire the notes for it from the trusted and always well guarded library. Once that is done I'll study for it. I have three exams next week and one the following week and then on to the blessed freedom. I heard through the rumor mill that Mike Ward has some interest in a broad over there. Mike, I'm waiting for details. Wood, it was good to see your face again. Its been too long. As for the rest of you....do I even have any other followers? I doubt it. Anyways, time to make lunch followed by laundry, followed by incessant napping and/or Xbox. Whatever direction the wind blows me. I said the wind, it was not sexual. I'm an idiot. Over and out.

    My tenure as a lab doer in biochemistry is now over. I have completed all tasks with well over 70% efficiency. The lab TA claims over 80 in fact. I'm impressed but then again, wasn't it expected. But on to the real reason that I'm posting. I've recently received overwhelming response demanding that I post again. The pressure has been so tremendous that even I was taken aback. So here it is baby.

    Last night after attending only our second full lecture in our first year course we went on a bit on an adventure. Firstly we dropped off a prize at the gates of a local boy scouts establishment. Then we went and looked at our new house, followed by home. Today was more of the same fun adventures. After running into Brown in the UC we walked home. It was a nice day, can you blame me? We countered that with stopping at the local KFC for lunch. Afterwards Brown smoked one of his freshly imported Dominican cigars. They are huge. So while he did that I joined him on the deck and worked on my guitaring. Somehow I ended up with the matches in my hands and sitting on the powerbox at the front of the house. One thing lead to another and there was a fire! The one thing was that I was lighting matches and extinguishing them immediately and rubbing the used head off on the cement. The other thing was that I used said remaining sticks to construct small "log" cabins. At first I just used the extinguished sticks and burned those, on the cement. And then the brainwave struck us that we should build a house with unused matches and ignite that. It was glorious. For the third house we built, we entombed the cigar butt and burnt it. That was really fun. Also fun was how Dave bought a bike today. $500 value for only $250. It is a mountain bike with 21 speeds and dual suspension. What isn't fun about that is how he didn't bring us along. We shunned him for a while before forcing him to apologize. That's about all I can think of for now. Talk to you later all y'all.

    I'm back baby. I'm in a weird place right now, well actually its not that weird, just pissed off or frustrated. I don't even know. I have a headache and I'm pretty worked up for some reason. Looks like I'm going to have to listen to some mood music and play solitaire for a while. That usually calms me down slightly. I don't know what is wrong with me. I'm done all my assignments for the school year and I look forward to taking on some exams...except biochem, which is lurking as the finale. Then I begin my work, same job as last round. I hope the summer brings good times. Man I am worked up, I don't know what got me going. Oh well, so this has been a wasted post. It will only give a thrill to people who check everyday. When they find a new thing it is a feeling of joy or relief. I know, I'm one of those people. I can't focus. Hopefully next time I sit here I'll be more composed. That is all.
