I appreciate dogs.

EVERY DAY I'm like, "Yo cat, get off my bed." 

And the cat's all, "mrow."

Then I pet her head and realize it's probably encouraging her to stay on my bed, but she's just SO SOFT and I can't stop and I look at her face and see her eyes close in that happy little squint cats get, and the purring starts OH NO. Too much cute.

After a moment of petting, I come to my senses and the spell is broken. I'm like, "GET OFF MY BED."

And the cat's all, "mrrrrrrrr."

I glare at her and gesture wildly as I tell her off. She don't care. I resort to desperate measures and grab her in all of her fluffy glory and carry her out of the room to deposit her ever so kinda-sorta-gently in the living room. 

Those eyes which were so recently closed in the happy-cat-squint are now narrowed reproachfully; spitefully even. She blinks as though she doesn't care, but once my back is turned.... She sneaks back onto my bed.

So I'm like, "Yo cat, get off my bed." 

Every. Single. Day.

This is not a recap of my entire existence.

So... Of all the times I could have written a blog in the past five months, I pick right meow. My first midterm is on Friday, I have two projects due next Wednesday, along with another exam. And a lab exam next Thursday.

But s'cool, guys. I'm cool. No worries, no sweat.

... I want to drop out.

NOT because I have exams and I suck at studying due to the fact that I have the attention span of a very mature three-year-old.... It's because I don't particularly care about school right now. Maybe the root of that is exams after all.. Huh.

I wanna do a YWAM! I want to trrrrraaaaavel... I shall now refer you to a previous post of mine, because I don't need to go over THAT again. But seriously. YWAM, guys. Here's the deal: I shall apply to the Kinesiology co-op program at UVic for next school year.... If I get in, I'll do it... If I don't... I'm outta here.

Sound fair? If I get in, I'll finish my schoolio-ing before I do YWAM. Or travel. Or whatever happens. Yep. Ballin'. Maybe I should keep this more updated... Good ol' bloggy blog. Should I? Comments are appreciated. I still don't know who reads this. Next post will be about some sort of entertaining topic. Mildly entertaining, at the very least. Hah, who am I kidding. "kinda funny" is about the best I can do. We'll see what I can muster up, folks. Haaaaave a great burrito.


.. Day. I meant day. I'm hungry.

Profound lack of photography.

Alrighty. So. I forgot my camera when Rebecca and I went out today. Yeah. I would've gone back to get it, except for the fact that the apartment was locked and nobody would be home until 4 PM. So I shall use my words instead! 


For those of you who don't know, right now we're halfway through our big European adventure! Today was spent wandering about Hamburg, Germany. We saw a lot of the city last night, when Gregor drove us around while Soren explained a lot of the history of the city. Apparently Hamburg has the most bomb bunkers of any German city. HUH. Also, there was a massive fire in an artillery bunker here during the war, and people on the streets nearby suffocated due to the fire sucking all the oxygen out of the area. Unreal, right?! There was this amazing church called St Nikolai as well, it was bombed during WWII, and only the bell tower and some of the outer stonework are still standing. It's all blackened from the smoke, and just standing there knowing a bomb hit that spot was pretty incredible. Also being in Germany, the bomb would've been dropped by the Allied army, which is kind of a weird thought. 


Know what else we did today? No? Well. We went shopping. Mom, you should be proud of me. I bought TWO pairs of shoes. TWO! Europe has the sweetest shoes, no word of a lie. And I bought other stuff. Which is really stupid, because now I have to carry it with me for the rest of this trip. DANG IT. I also don't know if it will even fit in my backpack. Sigh. It's a tough life. 


There's this place here called Miniatur Wunderland. And it was SWEET. All these miniature railways in different countries. And PEOPLE. AND THINGS! We went there too. It probably sounds kinda lame, talking about miniaturized people and places, but the details in this place were so cool! It's actually the world's largest model railway exhibition. Yeah. So rad. Google it. 


Okay, that's all for now. And uhhhh yeah. My bad.
