| It has been awhile since I've written a blog entry. And the reason? My
life is boring lol. Usually people write about what they've done during
the day, but all I've been doing is stay at home and watch tv these
days. Pretty boring stuff  Been job
hunting as well. It's kind of depressing not being able to find a job.
I've been applying to a bunch of places but haven't heard anything
back. Now adays I'm willing to take any job! lol. People have asked me
what I am looking for but to be honest, I have no idea!
There are several options for me to take. I know I don't want to do
pure GIS as my career but it would be nice to have a bit in my job.
Possibly marketing?? There will be some business involved with some
mapping skills. The problem is, I don't have any business experience!!
Hence, there is the option of me going back to school. I could also
take economics but not sure where that would take me. I can always
continue doing GIS but in the long run, I don't know if I'll like doing
pure GIS jobs.
So these months ahead will be kind of frustrating, trying to figure out
what I want to do in life, and actually finding a job.....AND with a
decent salary lol. I'm hoping I can find one pretty soon....

| I've been looking at how my schedule will be like in the up coming
months. It's hard to believe that school is ending soon. I remember
when I first entered university and thought to myself that 5 years of
school is going to be forever. Now that I am reaching my last few weeks
of school, it seems like my school years have gone by pretty quickly.
Looking back, I had a pretty good school life. I definitely liked going
to university better than high school. I know some people enjoy being
in HS better because of their friends, but university allowed me to
make new friends and become independent. It will be hard once I
graduate because I will be starting a new chapter in my life and who
knows what the future will hold.
Speaking of starting a new chapter, I have already started looking for
a job. I've had several responses back but many are just telling me
that they are processing the resumes. Last week, my supervisor
from when I worked for the city of Toronto contacted me and said that
he was looking for 3 students: 1 GIS and 2 patrols. Knowing that I have
done GIS work there for 3 work terms, I wanted to do something new. So,
I replied back and said I'll take the patrol job. I think it will be
interesting. Apparently, we'll have to walk around the city and make
sure road work is maintained and if it needs maintaining. Its not a
hard job to do but since its in the summer, it will be great spending
half a day outdoors.
I just hope I don't get a sun burn LOL

| I was watching the Tony Danza show the other day (don't ask me why) and
this lady by the name of Glynis McCants claimed to be a celebrity
numerologist. Anyway, she was on the show and talked about the future
for all these celebrities based on their "number". There are
apparently 2 types of numbers you can get: your Life path number
and your Attitude number. My life path number is 5 and my attitude
number is 4. Let's see what she says....
FIVES seek freedom, fun, adventure. If they do not live the adventure,
their lives become way too dramatic. They are the natural detectives and
celebrators of life (holidays are usually their specialty). 5s have a hard time
settling down and have a fear of being trapped or smothered in a
relationship.
The 4 Attitude is a list keeper. They can be very quiet; you
don't know what they're thinking. They're keeping track of all that's happening.
You might find them surrounded by nature, or doing any form of repair, or
construction. The 4 Attitude teaches all of us. They become an expert at their
skill and teach us how to do it. They definitely will play devil's advocate:
they make you see all sides. That's their Attitude Number.
I'm not sure if these sound like me haha...here is the site if you
would like to know what number you are:
http://www.numberslady.com/num.cfm feel free to let me know if
those number descriptions sound like you! enjoy!

| Umm...ok so today I woke up early in the morning to go back to waterloo. Man, it was hard getting up hehe. Its funny how I go home every weekend, by now the bus driver sees me every friday so now he would just smile and say hello to me  . The bus got to Toronto at around 11 am and there, I met my wonderful bf Chris, such a great person....coming to pick me up at the bus terminal every week and dropping me off when I go back to Waterloo. It's hard saying good bye to someone you love, but I just think to myself that it's only 1 week and I'll see him again. 
I had this craving for Popeye's chicken the today so I suggested going there for lunch. We went to pick up some chicken and head back to my house. Didn't do very much, just relaxed at home with good ol' chris  I felt so relaxed and comfortable being with him, it almost seemed like we were already living together on our own!
After reading some of my friend's blogs, I have come to point where I also need to figure out what I want to do with my life after I graduate. My parents have suggested that I should try applying to ryerson for graduate school but I'm still not sure about this whole idea. I'm starting to get tired of school, especially writing reports  but maybe it's these courses I'm currenly taking that's making me feel this way. Atleast I know I can always go back to the City of Toronto and work for the summer. I recieved an email from one of the transportation managers, Myles offering to help me pass around my resume. It was great of him to do that. So I'm hoping I can find a job soon, otherwise I may have to go to grad school to upgrade myself. We'll see what the future holds for me  | | |
