Rambles of my life

Let's Dance! Put on your red shoes and dance the blues...

First off, this is friggin cool :D

Things are well here - my work reports making progress, I should be able to finish it in rough this week, to send to the people I worked with to look at. I hope.

Last night, my buddy Steve & I went to see Charlie & the Chocolate Factory. It was a fun movie - some parts towards the end seemed a bit slow, but I enjoyed it. Then we went for bubble tea. It was good hanging out with him - I met him during frosh week 3 years ago, at the concert. That was actually the first time I'd met Kat too...they actually went to high school together. Then I re-met him 6 months later at Kat's birthday, then 2 years later at Kat's birthday again. In those 2 years, we talked on MSN occasionally, but not often. Last night was the first time that Kat wasn't there, and I enjoyed the conversation. He's a nice guy - good to talk to, hopefully we'll hang out more often. His girlfriend was going to come, but she's studying for her OAT (optometry admissions test) Oh well - it was a good night!

I've been thinking about my future a lot lately. I still have no idea what I want to do after graduation (which is less than 2 years away!) I've had 4 work terms so far, and while each one has been beneficial, and some have been more fun than others, I haven't had any job that I REALLY loved & thought "this is what I want to do for the rest of my life!" I get bored easily...I need variety. I also want to travel. I also have no idea what I want to specialize in within chemical engineering.

I have 2 work terms left - this coming Jan-April, and then Sept-Dec. However, I only have to do 5 out of 6 work terms. Next summer, I'm in school, but I'll finish by about the 12th of August. Some friends & I have talked about going out west for a few weeks - flying into Calgary, then renting a car & driving through the Rockies & Banff, and ending up in Vancouver. However, I'm thinking a few things. Either I might try to get a co-op job out there & just stay there. Or not work during that work term (since I don't have to) and just staying in Vancouver for awhile. Bum around Vancouver for a few months, or even just one month, then going down towards Seattle & California. We'll see what happens...only time will tell. I just hate that I have no exact dreams or ambitions or any clue as to what I want to do with my life :S

Anyhoo, time for me to make some food...I'm hungry!
