Sometimes it's time to celebrate!

I am officially accepted into the Elementary Education Professional Degree Program starting September 2007!!!! Hoorah!!!!

AND tomorrow I'm off to the vdot (yes, again) to see a play on Granville Island for free! Then my good friend g.mango is coming back here for a few days of fun.

Now if I can just shake this plague I seem to have contracted, all will be well with the world!

Sometimes I get impatient.

I'm at a place right now where I'm full of passion and excitement for what my life is going to be five years from now (I hope), and full of impatience and frustration for what my life is at the moment. In my spare time I daydream about lesson plans and foster parenting, and I can't seem to focus on anything to do with French or History.

The unfortunate thing is that I have to get through the French and the History to get to the teaching and parenting. That is so frustrating to me.

And also frustrating is the fact that I know this attitude doesn't get anyone anywhere. But I can't seem to figure out how to get myself excited about now. Because now is not where I wanna be.

Sometimes I can't stand school.

I just wrote a paper (of sorts) on Mrs Dalloway.

I am tempted to title it "Talking out of my ass, with Julie Anna as your host" What do you think my instructor would do? I would so like to find out.

In other news, once I get through this first run of papers (the last one is due Tuesday), it will officially be reading break! Hoorah! That means that I'm off to the vdot again, this time for a play on Granville Island, and some good catching-up time with one g.mango who has been far away for far too long.

I am so excited! Hopefully that incentive will help me to get everything done that needs to be done before then. Because I seem to have misplaced my willpower somewhere. Has anyone seen it? I would greatly appreciate getting it back. Assuming I ever had one in the first place, that is.
