Almost October, 34 days before Nanowrimo.

  • Mood: Sadness
  • Listening to: Let it Die - Three Days Grace
  • Reading: Gulag
  • Watching: Volcano in Boston
  • Playing: Nothing really.
  • Eating: huh, this is an unknown word in my vocabulary
  • Drinking: Chai Tea
My head wants to explode so I use that time to write in my oh so neglected journal of Deviantart. I should start posting more regularly but this is not my most active journal. I sit here with my Black and Green Chai tea and I let the smell go straight to my lungs. I still haven't tasted it but well, it is obvious that it'll be delicious.

School have started since four weeks already and I've been doing well. I had my first exam last week and even though it wasn't the easiest on earth I think I did okay. It was in Differencial Linguistic of English and French. I cross my fingers for my next exam this week, but in History of French Language. All about Latin! It'll be interesting.

Anyway, I'm not here to talk about school right? School can be bothering when it wants. In a couple of weeks, it'll be the kick-off of Nanowrimo, National November Writing Month and once again I hope you'll be numerous to give it a try if not winning it. The goal? Quite simple: to write 50,000 words in a month. It looks like a big scary number like this but it is only 1667 words per day. It looks less outrageously big this way, right? I'll aim for 100,000 words this year, if not more. I'm the lucky bitch that gets a couple of exams only, not two intense weeks in the middle of November like others. I met a seriously mentally ill gang in Québec last year and I want to see them in November, around the middle of the month.
So yeah, if it's a challenge that interests you, give it a try!

I've been doing bad... >.>

I've been really bad about updating that journal, sorry everyone.
So... in the last six months, a lot of things happened (man already six months?) such as me winning NanoWrimo for the second year in a row or taking the decision to move back to Saguenay.
Oh wait?
Let's explain.

After november (and the awesome show of Dir en Grey) I seriously thought I would make it at the university but something happened with one of my teacher and that blew my chances to finishing successfully the first semester and outch, got my first E (Failed). I stayed at the university though, being way too proud ot let me fail another class. I worked twice as hard and I turned out being a complete zombie and getting sick.
I ended at the hospital twice in the gap of three days but still kicked my ass into studying. Huh, finished, got my marks, was disappointed of me. Way before that, around march... I decided I would finish my scholarship in Saguenay. Do I regret my choice? Barely... but my health is better than any program I could have gotten in Laval.
They accepted me but I already smelled problems.
Not even a week after I've entered UQAc, they called me, asking money and a bunch of other questions. That pissed me off and decided they could go rot in hell. Luckily my dear mom was there to calm the things down.
At this time I was still working in Québec and even after the semester I still worked there. In May I sent a few applications for a full-time job and I sent one in Newfoundland just for the heck of it...
They called me back, they interviewed me and here I am, writing this from a small school in St-John's, Newfoundland.
It is awesome and I still can't believe it. It seems so unreal! but I've never been so happy you know? Finally I explore my country, I'm free!
I miss you all my friend, I miss you all.
I have the blues some times but I know it's better for me.
For those in Québec and Montréal, you've been missed.

  • Playing: with Didactics
  • Eating: coffee?
  • Drinking: coffee, yeah
I want to sleep, like forever. My brain is all fried at the moment and it's really annoying. I still have to study for that exam Tuesday and my father will bring me back to Saguenay after my exam. I'm freaking exhausted but I can't wait to sleep in my bed with my dog and not at some random place like the hotel.
not that it's not fun there, it is :O But it's the rest, the way I'm freaking exhausted and all from the semester. Duh.
I bet it'll be all over soon though.

Internet died at the appartment, but it's not important, I'll live with it ^^;
I'm at a café in front of the appartment buildings and well it's nice! I've been here two or three times before and it's the first time there's not that many people around. Okay, that's not true, I've just looked around and it's horribly crowded, oups. I'm fine on my chair, thanks XD
So, I have one slush/coffee which is excellent but really bad for the caffeine level in my blood. I'll need it though because I'm working tomorrow and I have one exam right after so I'll barely have the time to think about my german and I'll be in front of my paper, writing my heart out about what I know in German. This is at least one field I won't fail, that and Didactics and Linguistics, for the two others, it's going a bit bad. Yeah, bad study atmosphere + bad working schedule = low but really low marks. Phonetics is the hardest at the moment but the nexxt (WHAT THEY'RE A RACE AT THE TV !!! SNOWCROSS!!!!!!!!!!!! FUCKING HELL!!!! THAT'S MY BABE!) oky I'm back. Now it should be better. This week I'm working a big 23 hours but it's because of that damn training, otherwise it's only the weekend and it'll be perfect that way. I received another offer for a translating job and I'm going for an interview wednesday. Yeah I know it's bad to jump from a job to the other, but I'm looking for the best. I'll help the people at the small hotel as much as I can and well it's not done yet about the translating job. My English pretty much sucks at the moment and I still have some respect about myself, otherwise it would be really sucky. (OH MY FUCKING GOD, THAT'S CONNISHISH AT THE TV! GO FOR IT DARLING!!!!) It must be because I'm tired like fuck. Yeah and my ankle has been an ass for a couple of day (WHATTT???? HE DID A BACKFLIP WITH HIS SNOWMOBILE! AHHHHHHHHHHHHH)
Okay, sorry everyone, snowmobile = love, it's as love as Mao in Grieving a dead soul (or whatever the name is for this song)
I finished Nano, you already know that, but I donated in the hope that they'll keep the forums open for the rest of the year. I'll receive a traveler mug in a few days with some stickers because I gave 10$. I'm proud of myself, I feel a bit less cheap XD and it's really starting to be long.
Right now I should be writing that project for Didactics. I have all the informations I need but I'm too busy writing this. Duh internet, I hate you. So! I won't be there for a few days because Internet = sucky thing.
I'll be stuck in Québec for the biggest part of the winter holidays, aka starting at the 28 of December and finishing around the 4 of January. I'll be able to go in Saguenay for the 24, but not for the 25 which means I'll be alone in the appartment, my grandmother is staying over Saguenay until January 10th.
I'll be in peace :O (Oh God! KEEP GOING LIKE THAT BABE AND YOU'LL GET HIM! mouahaha the other tried to be quicker and he fell, poor thing, he's all disappointed now. FUCK HE DID A BACKFLIP WITHOUT HIS HANDS! don't change that fucking channel man or I'll bite you!!!!!!!)
I'm already thinking about Nano 2009, you know? Some people gave me challenges to accomplish and getting 150k is one of them. Not sure I'll make it next year though. Nano = less sleeping hours = dead Alexe.
Anyway, gotta write that homeworks before studying my German !

I love Linguistics
I love Linguistics
I love Linguistics
I love you
I love Linguistics.
I really do!
But not now.
I'll start loving it again at the end of next week.
