So I finally got off my butt and signed up for classes, I am taking the BA classes at Alberta Ballet. That program must be tiny, the class is the year 2, 3, and 4's and it is still veery small. But bah, I need other classes because I am sure that just with them I am getting worse. I might be able to get credit for them though, so that would be grand (at least in the eyes of le parents)
However, when I went to the Nutcracker audition, the lady who runs the school was telling me about this new program, a three year BA with honours that I could do through her after I take my intermediate RAD exam. I tried looking it up though and I couldn't find anything, so I need to ask her more on this.
Still haven't got up to phoning the border people at the airport, bleh, I am so scared they are going to be mean after the horror stories me parents gave me from when they phoned.
I am majorly procrastinating on my courses, but yay me, my instructor said she didn't think I needed to move down an English level, weee. Tis splendid too, I wrote a paragraph having a bit of a rant (Hermit-style) about animal rights, and she emailed me back saying she is an animal 'freak' too and she is on the board for some wild animal rescue group.
Found this website: www.tmacvids.com and am trying to establish if it is entirely illegal or not. It seems like it should be but I tried searching it up with regards to its legality and what not and didn't come up with anything. So I am tempted to try it out, it has several videos on there that I wish to see, just need to conduct another search about it with regards to viruses because I certainly don't need any of that.
Hopefully I shall have pictures soon, I played piggie paparazzi a little while ago, just have to get father to show me how to use this program to get the pictures into the right format (he puts them in RAW format on his cameras so they can be meddled with on the computer, nice, unless you don't know how to use the program and thus can't look at your pictures)
Anyways, hopefully all is well with folks, it seems like I never talk to any of you anymore, more blog posting I say!

Bump on a Log
I am being a huge bump-on-a-log at the moment, its quite disgusting actually.
My courses started last week and so far I have started writing my first paragraph for my first English assignment but it is garbage and should have been sent in within the first few days of the course. I opened my Environmental course and looked it over, but that was a while ago and I have yet to touch it since and the third hasn't even been opened yet. Great start.
I haven't finished unpacking from when I came home in July and now I have all my stuff from my apartment cluttering up my room and the den as well, makes for happy parents.
On top of all that, I have done zip ballet-wise since the end of July sans one stretch class and some puttering around in my room.
I have deemed that this general lack of motivation is courtesy of me feeling like I have no purpose in life. It's a vicious circle; last year I did my courses because I had to, now there is no reason so I have little interest in working on them but I don't want to cancel them in case I get to go back and thus need them. (and by then I will be ridiculously behind if this keeps up) I am procrastinating on getting a job for fear I will have to quit after a stupidly short time because if I get a go-ahead for going back, nothing is stopping me! I keep researching about things to do and visas and whatnot all the while I am not finding a place to take class, for similar reasons to the job and because they have all started by now so I would have to jump in late, and thus getting more and more out of shape. Charming!
And I am sure you are all so thrilled to listen to continual grumblings on my part so I will endeavour to make this my last post on the subject unless I have happy news.

P.S. Like the piggies?
