Summer's Over

Boooo!!! Back to our regular 8-10 months of winter. Already. I can't believe how quickly the summer sped right past me. Already there's a chill in the air at night, and you can smell the winter. Already women are trading in their mini skirts for jeans. Already my store has put transitional merchandise on sale to make room for the rapidly approaching fall. Already!! I don't think I'll ever get used to this stupid 2 months of summer thing. And don't tell me about the technicalities that summer is actually 3 months long and blah blah blah cause to me summer isn't defined by calendar days, it's defined by warmth. And it's never warm for more than two months. Normally you only get about 5 weeks guaranteed.

Ok ok, so now that I've ranted about why summer being over sucks, lets cover some of the positives. A: I am getting very, very tired of the whole working thing. I miss school, I miss being a student. Deeply. So I am delighted school will be starting next week and I'll only be working a couple of days per week. Woo Hoo!!! Actually, I was having this discussion with someone, and what I've come up with is that I get bored very easily. 4 months of working and I'll be more than ready to go back to school. 4 months of school and I'll be dying for the easy breezy monotony of work life. That's just the way things go with me; never satisfied for all that long.

But, what's even more awesome is that all my hard work (ok, maybe "hard work" is stretching it slightly :-p)I got into my program!! Woo hoo!! Honours Psychology here I come! 2 years of college and one year of University...all to get me to this moment in time. There were so many times I thought maybe that it would never happen, that I could never get into the program, that fate would always prevent me from doing so. I am so happy and so relieved. I feel like life is really about to start. Like finally my life is worth something, working hard in school, applying myself, learning new things...it's all going to be worth something in the end. Finally!!

So with all of that being said I'm gonna go take a nap. Lol...I figure I might as well take full advantage of the lazy times while they're still around :-D

For everyone else starting school in the next couple weeks, enjoy your last summer holiday weekend and have a happy, prosperous school year!

Cheers
