Is July a blah month for you guys?
Sunday, July 8, 2007

Hey All

It's 20 to 10 here on a Sunday night, and I'm kind of in a blah mood.

When did summer start to not be fun anymore? As a kid, summer was the one period of the year you were looking forward too with no school and swimming and having fun and going to movies and all that. But now it's actually become one of my least favorite times of the year. Normally, I'm just working my ass off at some manual labor job so that I can save up enough money to live off of during the upcoming school year. But this year, since I made so much money last year with CP Rail, I'm taking summer classes to get caught up with my degree. I already took CS 100, which was a class I kinda coasted through and still got a good grade, and now I'm taking Spanish 110. I have to have two languages for my degree, and it's the two things I don't really want to do. I've been putting this class off for the longest time, and just dropping the class at this point isn't really an option. I have to take it if I want to officially graduate by April 2008. And I've been putting off doing my Spanish homework for the whole day. I shouldn't even be writing this.

But then again, I always just think of July and August as sort of blah periods. It doesn't rain as much around this time, so the house pretty much becomes a hotbox. And the only thing we have for air conditioning is some tiny fan. The grass is kind of drying out, so there's no real point in mowing it, even though it still needs to be done. Matt is always gone for some military thing. We got a new roommate in that I really don't want, but have no real choice in the matter. And I guess it's just the fact that it's been two months since I've been with my friends at the uni and it sucks that I don't see them as much.

And yeah there's still movies to go to (although the stuff I was waiting for I've already seen), and shows to watch (I am psyched that THE NINE is going to be burnt off in August) and HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HOLLOWS out in two weeks. But for me, the next six weeks is just walking to the uni and taking a class I'd rather not take. I'm more looking forward to the last third of August. After Aug 20th, I have harvest to help out with, Matt will be back and we have our Edmonton trip to go on, and then I'll be back taking Film 400 and 401 with my friends.

So does anyone here think of July as a blah month?
