I'm Back..... (a.k.a the MoaP)

     Okay, I think I have some explaining to do for my absence. Since my exams began on the 6th of December and ended on the 10th, i had been studying. After that, I had to go shopping before my return to the Bolehland. Upon arrival, I was internet connection deprived, and then after my connection had returned, I was too busy going around with my parents (I was only there for 3 weeks. Quite seriously, I was stranded too (Had no phone, precious little cash to use). After my departure, the next two weeks were something of a transitional period, where I had to get reaccustomed to life as a student, and even some more newer adjustments in the realm of public transport.

Okay, so I have covered everything that's happened at the macroscopic level. But, that's not quite what a blog is for, am I right? It's for the details of the events that the writer is experiencing. So, now for the mother of all posts.

Let us begin where it left off. The exams. Since then I have had the joy of recieving my final grades, but with results a tad lower than I had anticipated. Since then I have enrolled and started past the first month classes. My only hope is to keep my grades as high as they were last semester.

After my exams had concluded, I had to buy everything that everyone back home in the Land of the Eternal Summer (which hence shall be refered as LotES) had requested. The list goes something like this...  Ice Hockey vizor(specific model), mouthguard case, tracksuit, skull cap, Wii games, maple syrup, pine nuts, walnuts and granola bars. And I had 3 days to get it all. You can imagine the rush. Fun.

So I got home and gave everyone what they wanted, but then my parents weren't home, so I had to stay with my sister and her family for about a week. Suffice to say that I wasn't very mobile during that time, due to my keyless condition which limited my mobility. I had no phone, no internet and no car. You can imagine.

When my parents do get back, and I'm staying with them, I took the oppotunity to go out as much as possible. However, due to the vast majority of my friends either working, studying, living in a dorm in college on weekdays or some combination of the above, I had not the chance to meet with some of them. This is probably the greatest regret I have about the trip home to LotES. That I wasn't able to meet up with quite a few friends of mine.

With the few that I did, however, I had a ball. Telling them stories about stuff that happened in NS and Canada. Some of the things I said made utterly no sense to them, however, and this can be attributed to the fact that I had, unbeknownst to myself, picked up some Canadian slang that I assumed everyone understood. [Canadian] Eh? [/Canadian]

So, I get back to Canada, and, I bullshit you none, I get picked up at the airport, and get dropped off at my college for my 2nd class (it so happened that I had missed my first class by about 3 hours). And, wouldn't you know it, jet lag set in, and before I knew it, I was face-forward on my desk, drooling on my book. Yay for jetlag. 

In any case, sorry it took so long for me to put up another post. Will do more. Look out for it!

Over and out!
