Where Amazing Happens
So the raps aren't going to make the play-offs again. No surprise there . I'm glad my Bulls are making it though.
3 days 13 hours till Amazing begins

You've got growing up to do...
So, another school year has ended, another year of memories come and gone and what have we got at the end of it? I can list a few things, bags under our eyes, an addiction to caffeine, and a brain that has turned to mush. It's not all bad news though, which I will be getting to.
Yes, it's true - third year does kill you. It does try to take away your soul, and for those to whom it succeeded, my condolences. Another year of school though brings even more late night memories, even more trips to either the 24hr grocery store for brownies and ice cream or McDicks, and somehow it teaches us even more about yourself.
Honestly, every year that I come out of school, I feel like I have somehow matured? I don't know how it's possible, but I look back on things that happened in September and I wouldn't have dealt with them or treated the situations as I did then. Friendships come, friendships go, and at the end you wonder how much more could change in the following summer.
It's kind of exciting when you think about it, because you think life will always stay the same, and it doesn't. Everyday you learn new things about life, and about yourself, and even when you're 45 you'll still have lessons to learn. Crazy huh?
So my point of this very random post - as Joshua Radin would say, we've all got some growing up to do, and as for me, I am happy that it is with the Ladies of Jane that I can do this sometimes painful learning experience with.
How much will I have grown by next year?

fourth year blues
contemplating the future, as it's what my brain does instead of sleeping..
a) law school: typical choice for me, i suppose, as i've been told i'm "destined" for law school since i was eleven. but do i want it? i don't know. but i'm not convinced i would want to do corporate law...public defender is more my style, but the idea of being an underpaid, overworked, washed up government employee by the age of 30? not so much. either way, lsats in the fall '10? maybe.
b) environmental policy + administration: possible, definitely possible. i've always had a thing for the whole 'green' movement, but only when it has substance...but for a career? it's a solid option, but requires a masters...not that any choice of mine doesn't require graduate work. also, i'm qualified...beyond qualified for the program.
c) high school: it's not my fault, really. when both your parents are teachers, it's inevitable that you're going to have some predisposition toward the vocation. however, to do so means either acquiring 6 geography courses in the next year or coming back for a semester and taking french. on top of that, jobs are scarce (at least in ontario). on the bright side? i have more experience than most undergrads, and am guaranteed three incredible references...but to go back to high school for the rest of my life? uncertain on that regard.
d) journalism: i like to write. i like to research. i love words. but again, a masters, and again, it could end badly - i'm thinking burnt out story chaser who ends up writing the "dear abby" column for the next twenty years...
e) farm: it's a bit ironic, really. the one thing i've sworn i'll never do, is the one thing i cannot get away from. there are ideas, of course, to make it not just a rundown horse farm...but...the amount of capital needed to start something up and make it successful? ridiculous. if it were possible though to make it work...well, i already have the whole thing already planned out...
f) tba: i have too many interests to list here...so i'll save this category for everything not already mentioned.
i wish i could just "let it be". as much as i love the beatles, and i follow that line a lot, i'm still stressing about the decisions ahead. as much as i want school to end, i'm not certain i'm ready to be in fourth year yet. too much to deal with...decide for me?

Tyga Tyga
So it is easter and one would usually associated this time of year with easter bunnies and egg hunts and yummy baked goodness. Well that just not happening this yr haha. University does that to you. I've been busy writing up final 12 page lab reports, wiping my runny and trying to recover from being sick all weekend long. To annihilate the boredom and isolation that i've experienced this weekend I started listening to some new music. Some of you may have heard of Lil Wayne and Young Money. Well I discovered one rapper that who goes by the name of Tyga. Amazing rapper and even better looking guy. I must admit i'm not into the rappers with their chains that hang low and their boxers showing and the body suit of tattoos but Tyga, he's the only exception. I guess you can call him a celebrity crush. In the words of Lil Weezy ' She wanna lick the rapper" haha not really. Anyway Tyga= love.
Ps i'm not going to lonely anymore cuz i'm lauren (not Macnab) and Vanessa are making me easter dinner. Kinda excited I miss my girlies
