Summer Job!
I have a job!
I apologize for any incoherent sentences. I just woke up from a 4 hour nap and I'm very groggy and disoriented.
Anyway, I got a call last night from Heritage Reforestation, saying would you still like to come, we're leaving from Kanata on Sunday. And I'm like, for sure!! So planting is happening near Renfrew, west of Ottawa. Camp costs are $25/day, which is kinda steep, but whatever. They are also providing my bags and shovel free of charge. They don't require the $100 security deposit that most places do (some people will accept multiple planting jobs and go to the first one. If they don't like it, they'll leave and go to the next one. The deposit ensures that the planter will be there to stay.).
I'm going up to Ottawa anyway this weekend with my family to see my uncle and aunt, so it's very convenient for me to get to Kanata on Sunday.
I'll be gone for approximately 6 weeks, and hopefully I'll get a bunch of money out of it ;)
On another note, I flooded my bathroom this morning *blushes* I must have been really tired, cause I brushed my teeth, and got into the shower. Catch? I left the tap running. I got out of the shower and water was running down the hall. It took me about a half hour to mop it up with my towel. Yeesh.
My third exam is over. I didn't study for diction, and that SO paid off! The "oral exam" was ridiculous. Kevin wasn't even there... So I stood there with Jamie and sung like 30 seconds worth of rep and sight read words in IPA and words in different languages.
Next 2 exams are Dictation and Theory, tomorrow and Wednesday at 9am. I hate morning exams. They make me want to cry.
After talking to people (namely danielle and amanda and yueyue) about it, I've decided to switch my major to pop-music studies. I'll try for perf again next year, but for now I'm a pop music major! ^^ Bring on the rock and roll!
I really want to go back to bed. I'm feeling so tired. And I've been sleeping since... 4:30. It's 8:30. ayahhhh......
