I've come to be extremely thankful for my co-op program.
Today I was working on a design lab for one of my classes, and everything seemed to click so easily with it.
It was design of sanitary sewers, and so I had experience in doing that at Al-terra for my first co-op terms.
Watching others struggle to do what came so easily to me really made me appreciate the awesome work experience I've had.
Sometimes it just takes time to appreciate past experiences.
Magnetic Island!!!!
Last day of November.
I cannot believe how fast time has passed. At the beginning of the month, I was exhausted and ready for the month to pass, and now that it has, I wonder where all my time has gone.
Let's reflect on what happened this month:
Water polo
Long weekend at home
Immortals!
Scuba! :) :) :)
First volunteer shifts at Ten Thousand Villages
Managed to do above average on ALL my midterms
Last weekend's drunken mess
First ever visit to On the Rocks
Realized that I was completely broke
Solidified employment at Golder

Wow. This month doesn't have that many exciting memories! How sad.
I hope that December will be wonderful!

Winter Wonderland: Jason Mraz

Water polo champs!!



















I make a good goalie!!! They only scored 3 goals with me in net, and I blocked a whole bunch of shots, including two in a row! Yay me :)
I had a bad day. Grumpy all day, but listening to Christmas music made me feel better.
David Archuleta, I love you.
Good night all. I hope you have a fantastic sleep and a great day tomorrow!
Hahahaha.

Nooooo. You don't think it would take 10 one word answers in a row to get my point across.
Although he is currently unemployed because his boss is in the hospital with cancer, I still hate it when people don't look for a job right away. If I had no income and was also not going to school, I would be bored and annoyed at my useless life.
Honestly, a guy without a job is so unattractive to me, especially after the whole Zach situation. Not having a job is a total sign of not being motivated in anything and being utterly and completely lazy.
I mean, here I am, I earned my scholarships in first year. I worked hard to get into engineering co-op so that I could pay for my own tuition and living, food, and recreational expenses. And then there are the people who don't work and mooch everything off their parents. I mean, when you're a student, you have a legit excuse. But when you don't go to school, being unemployed is not a reasonable way to live.
I work, volunteer, go to school, play intramurals, and go to choir while maintaining a social life. Don't you dare say you don't have time to work AND do other things.
