Friday was my last day of work until January 12th. Dang I was excited when 4'o clock hit. We have our christmas party on the 6th and I still havent bought a present. SO this weekend rocked. Friday night we went to The Tounge n Groove. A local place in Lethbridge. I LOVED IT TO DEATH. It is not commercialized and they had the best white wine in the world. It was heaven. The whole night I felt like I was in the bliss. There was a celtic band from the maritimes. I cant describe it, no thoughts or worries. It was sublime. Then on Saturday, the aquafit gals and myself went to the TandG at 6pm. I was so hammered at the beginning of the night. We then went to Studio 54, my favorite dance club, and danced up a storm. I was so sober at the end of the evening it was weird. Terry and Lana are two crazy aquafit gals. They got me in trouble with so many girls it was a blast. Overall it was a gr8t weekend. Now its back to the books for a bit.

Later Days

Well, I am sitting at work enjoying my large coffee from Mc Donalds. Take that all you mormons out there. Seriously, because I drink coffee I am a bad person? Somone really needs to talk to these people. TGIF is right. Its my last day at this wretched place. I am the manager at one of the swimming pools in Lethbridge and its time for a break. Yesterday was a great day, not for anything work/school related but for the fact that one of my fellow workers brought me some christmas baking. I LOVE FOOD, I LOVE BAKING. Kudos to Hanna as she made my day. In less than two weeks, I head to New Orleans for my holidays with the family. I am a political guru. More specifically I am a right wing political guru. While in the states, I get the opportunity to wine and dine with Lousianna's governor, seceratary of state, as well as both senators. I got invited to the governors christmas ball. I AM SO FLIPPING EXCITED. My profs/fellow political students are envious which makes it all that much better. Anyways, its amazing how one conversation constituent leads to another. Have a grand dall all.

Until next time

So tonight I did something that I havent done in a long time. For starters, I am a person who needs to be around other people. I like the comfort that people are around me. I went to a movie by myself. Does anyone other than me do that. You see, I am a lifeguard and I find that the people I am around with every day(patrons) get on my nerves. I know that sounds contradictory because I said I need to be around people, but when I said that, I meant people I choose to be around. In order for someone to hang out with a person, they must be liked otherwise there is no point in hanging out with someone. Anyways, tonight I just felt like I needed to get away from everything. I goto school full time and I work full time. I think it is healthy to just step outside of reality once and a while and reflect on things. Not that going to see a movie by myself enabled me ro reflect on my life, but that it was something different. Intentional isolationism is ok i think if it is done sparingly.

All is good. Life is all about choices. We choose to work, we choose to goto school, we choose to many things. I guess the key to success is striking a balance. I have found the balance between work and school, but thats about all. hmmm, time to ponder.

Until Next time

Well this is my first post. I am new at this and was referred by someone at work. I am a lifeguard in Lethbridge Alberta. This seems like a good place to enter thoughts into the atmosphere so I will do so as soon as I figure this site out.
