hey guys. hey there. how's it going? pretty good? Have you been dying to hear how I did on my first exam?? Should I continue on for a few more sentences of pointless jargin, just to make you wait that much longer?? Well, the results are in, and I guess I'm a fricken genius, because I got myself 100 on my first test. Yes ladies and gentlemen, despite popular belief, I-a blonde- scored 100.. Heck yes. (point, aim and shot directly at the negativity.) Holler.
Well, we moved into our new place. It's already starting to feel like home. Despite the extremely stressful and emotionally chaotic weekend, I feel like this could be home for more than a year. *knock on wood*
I'm off to bed now. I just thought it would be nice of me to update you. I'm going to finish my glass of milk, while I watch the bachelor. LOL. For some reason, watching 20 girls throw themselves at one guy, who isn't even that good looking at all, and then watching them cry histerically when he doesn't want them to be his wife.. LOL!! pure amusement.. Yes I know, I'm a jerk :)

i like to move it move it
So change of plans, we are moving this saturday... Yes that's right ladies and gentlemen, we are making the 9th move in 5 years.
Have i mentioned that I have an exam on friday?? So my schedule as of now is: Study, pack, clean.. Study pack clean.. Scludy, stack, stlean.... LOL. Ok, that was a little un neccessary, but hey. I needed a filler.
I know that this move is going to be worth it, but I am having a hard time adjusting to the fact that I have to pack and unpack, get re adjusted to a new space, re organize, redecorate... y'know..
SO, if you're not to busy reading my super awesome blog on saturday, and want to come help move, then just let me know. There is no such thing as "too many people"... Well, maybe on the C-train..
I'm sitting here at my computer playing with my hair, mentally kicking myself for wanting to cut it... I must say it was the first time in a REALLY long time that I have cried over lost locks.. Now I am left with almost no hair. (It's not short, just super thin, and I am used to my thick hair). Yes I know, it is just hair so I should get over it. I think it's more of a "breaching of trust issue" I put a good 91% of my trust in that hairdresser, and she screwed up royally. I will never ever go to her again to get my hair cut, even if it saves me 20 bux.. Which it didn't really, because then I had to pay my usual hairdresser to fix it, SO it evened out. *sigh*
I hope you're not thinking : "Oh my gosh, I can't believe I just wasted 3 min (5 if you're slow) reading a blog about hair. If you are, then I apologize.
But really, you only wasted 5 min of your life... there are worst things. (Like wasting 1.5hrs of your life watching dinner for shmucks!)
anywho, there's not a whole lot more I can write about.. I probably won't be blogging until friday evening, or after we're all moved in.. Unless I have some crazy experience, or some awesome epiphany. (sp?)
adios!

1000
I'm at 968 views as I type this...
I remember being stoked to hit 48!!! I guess this means I'm a big deal... Or almost a big deal anyways... All thanks to you!! Give yourself a pat on the back!! Or if you have short arms, and cannot reach, like myself... Get someone in close proximity to yourself to do it for you. I won't make fun of you, I promise :)
Not much is going on in school right now. Mostly just practising waxing, and painting nails. I think I am getting my underarms waxed tomorrow though... Eek!!! Yes I know, I am a big baby. But really? think about it... I'm sure I am probably getting sympathy from my male readers right now. And I appreciate your sympathy. Unless you're just laughing at me, saying " HA HA, sucks to be you!" ... well then, I don't appreciate that.
First exam next week! I started studying over the weekend, but the whole idea of an exam still freaks me out. Nothing says anxiety attack like: "Here, answer these 50 plus questions on everything you have learned in your first month of school"...
Woooo saaaaaw (sp?)

the decision
SO.
we're moving! *sigh* But not right away...
I sucked it up, and realized that as much as I hate moving, a 2bed 1 bath apartment with a side of mice is not worth 1150/month or 958 a month if we sign a year lease... Our landlord is kind of... well.. I will let you pick a rude word or two....
I guess I should change my header? and add moving to the list of things to do while in school? Maybe not.. That might look a little bit rediculous..
We are looking into buying a house. *crosses fingers* It's a shot in the dark, but we're praying that God will work something out. I really hate the idea of throwing away 1000 bux a month to someone who doesn't really need that much money, y'know? If I ever win the lottery, and you guys can hold me to this, I am going to build like 3 little houses, and rent them out for like 500 bux a month... I would have some sort of intricate application process, and only select young families or couples that are in the same predicament as Howie and I.
How we survive on one income is beyond me. It has to be God, because to do the numbers, we should be broke all of the time. I'm not saying it's not tight some months. (We've all been there, when you come to the end of the money before the end of the month?)
I never thought I would see the day that I would be debating on buying a house in Alberta...*shudders*
Please don't take offense to that, I was just born and raised in a tiny town in Saskatchewan.. Ah well, I'm here until I'm done school.
Keep your eyes open for any sweet deals on 3bed places.. h'okay? thanks. You can move for me too.. and make my lunch, clean my house, and put all my clean laundry away :p
Goodnight !!
PS: I finally cleaned my bathroom!!! I will not tell you on what day, because I can only imagine how appalled you will be.. hee hee.

should I stay or should I go now?
*pukes*
our mice our back :(... Ok, maybe I shouldn't say "mice" but howie and I saw/caught a mouse on monday night whilst watching a movie. I am sick and tired of these stupid things, and having to stress over having a spotless house so my kids aren't touching toys that mice may have crawled over. *shudders*
On that note, we found a 3bed townhouse that we're debating moving to...
right now, we live super close to my parents, and my friend who watches the girls wed & friday while I'm at school... If we move to this place, it will add about 15 min to the commute to my parents, and about 20 to the other... Howie would then have to backtrack past our new place, and go to work. Here's the fantastic part: We have to let them (our current landlord) know by tomorrow what our decision is. SO needless to say, I may or may not be moving in 2 weeks time... the 9th time in 5 years...
This got me thinking, why do I hate moving so much? Sure I hate shelling out money to pack and unpack all of my stuff... I hate packing, I hate re organizing, I hate having that awkward first 2 months in a place until you feel settled. Even though I have already cried today because I am so stressed, I could still generate a good 2 hr cry session right now.
you may be thinking "boo hoo, suck it up and move" or "ewwww mice! get out now!".... I'm torn 50/50, and for the first time in a really long time, I have no idea what I am going to do... and less than 24 hrs to figure it out... *ugh*
Lord help me through this....
you will know soon if I am staying or going

new leafs... leaves??
Okie dokie ladies and gentlemen...(If there are any males that read this, a special hello to you!) Are you ready to hear how school is going?? I would have updated sooner, but my computer was having some issues. *insert a choice phrase and four letter word here*
I LOVE school!!!! absolutely freaking love it... On the very first day, we were in the spa, doing hands on learning! Awesome eh? (yah yah, I'm so Canadian)... I got to be a model whilst everyone else took turns waxing my fabulous winter legs.. Yum..
Day two consisted of playing around with manicures. We didn't learn the whole shizzam, but we did some filing, buffing, base coat , polish and topcoat. LOADS of fun.. You would be suprised at how hard it actually is to paint someone else's nails! filing nails the correct way is hard to get used to as well.
I have lots of stories, but so far, most of them have just made me angry, or super stressed. So typing them out for you on my lovely blog will not be a good idea, since I still have a bit of homework to finish... and I don't feel like getting all worked into a frenzy right before I go to bed. I'm sure there will be plenty more stories in the future.
Well, tomorrow is friday, and I will have officially completed my first week of school. My sanity is still in check (so far), the girls are doing great without me (tear), and I haven't missed my bus yet. (Although, I have had to chase down a few...) <---- how's that for a comical bedtime image? :)
Goodnight guys.. I will be keeping you posted

here we go!
I am on the verge of throwing up. It's insane. It's like a freakin football game. (I really get into my rider games, and get myself all worked up, to the point of puking.. it's nuts..)... On that note:
I'm so excited to start school tomorrow.. I would like to say nervous, but not the bad nervous.. Picture one of those really goofy cartoons, with the huge exstatic smiles, missing teeth, and the really big eyes... That's me, right now.. Minus the missing teeth.. that would be weird.. Or comical...
I'm pacing my house, not knowing what to do with myself.. I don't want to make my lunch for tomorrow quite yet, because then my sandwich will get all soggy etc.. *yuck*.. there's about 3 hampers full of clean clothes i could put away... I could make cookies.. which is the option I am leaning towards right now... I have yet to decide what I am going to where tomorrow, I should clean my bathroom.. I will own up to this, as gross as it sounds, but my bathroom could probably be a science experiment right now... I ALWAYS do this, I wait until my bathroom is really disgusting, and then I say to myself as I am cleaning it: "I am never going to let it get this bad again!!" and then 2.5 weeks later..... Go ahead and judge me for going that long without cleaning my bathroom... But I never have company, or company that stays long enough to use the facilities... so there. (that sounds more depressing than it actually is)
Anyways, I have a lot to do, but I can't decide what to do... I really want to enjoy my last day as a "non-student"... I just remind myself that its only 6 months, it's only 6 months...
I'm trying super hard to be positive about everything, and for the most part, I am... I hate the idea of rarely seeing my family.. I haven't even started, and I already miss howie. I know he's going to do a fantastic job of taking care of the girls, but I must admit, it's a hard pill for me to swallow.
well, here I go... Are you ready? I am. It's my turn to do what I have always wanted, to become all that I have wanted to become.. The mayhem begins in T-minus 17hrs.. *deep breath*
