The most exciting thing in my life lately has been a Friends marathon and a Spider Solitaire tournament.

Just a couple completely unrelated things....
Well, I am attempting to work on a Bible study that I am supposed to give at May Long. I got sidetracked by all the shmancy stuff you can do in Power Point, though. It is so cool!
But I am still making steady progress on the Bible study, don't worry.
Then, I have a question for all you Sitemeter people: How do I tell who googled me and everything? And where people live? I signed up and all it tells me is how many people visit my blog.
Speaking of which, I appear to have more people than I realized. Unless people are simply compulsively checking my blog. So, umm... hi everyone!! Do I know you all? Or do strangers think I am witty? I didn't think I was as witty to interest people I don't know....

I got it!!!
Well, OK, it isn't a job. But it is infinately more exciting.
So today I was browsing a boutique on White Avenue with my client and I got a phone call from one of the instructors.
I got the field placement I wanted! It is at (an anomynous) high school, basically as a guidance and career counsellor. I am so super excited. It was my absolute number one choice, and I got it.
Too bad I have to wait four months to start....
Edit, Months later: Too bad it sucked.

School's Out For Summer
I have been singing that song since I got home earlier today. It was very enjoyable. A great deal of stress is off of my mind. Now I just have to go about finding a job....
I have two interviews tomorrow- on at The Gap and the other at PJs Pets. I turned down a job at Bryan's today. I just felt like it was a place where I would not be comfortable, and that it wouldn't be good for my self esteem. Tomorrow I also have my first session with my personal trainer at the gym. Today I also worked on May Long stuff. If you are reading this and have not registered for May Long yet, e-mail me and let me know what your plans are for it!!!
So even though I am out of school, I am not completely useless. Just poor.

I cannot resist these things...
Well, OK, that is not quite true. I resisted the yummy famous boy one, but that is simply cuz I don't have crushes on enough yummy famous boys to fill it up.
My name is: Jen
I may seem: cold and reserved
People who know me think: that I am funny and slightly insane (in a good way, of course)
If you knew me you’d probably: also be slightly insane
My days are pretty: mediocore- hectic and dull at the same time. It is punctuatesd by long naps on the bus.
Yesterday: was Tuesday. What did I do? Oh, yes, I went to West Ed after practicum, and then walked.
In the morning I: Get up. Which bites.
I like to sleep: on the bus
If I could be doing anything right now I would be: dressed to kill, flirting with a boy. But since that is unlikely to happen, I'll settle for blogging.
Money: Would be nice to have some...
One thing I don’t have that I wish I did is: artistic talent
One thing I have that I wish I didn’t is: a zit.
All you need is: love. love. love.....
All I need is: for all these responsibilities to be over.
If I had one wish it would be: to... ummm... I know what I'd like to wish for, but that would be bad for me... let's say... contentment. or to have someone come over and invite me over to hang out. My door is open, people!!
If I could see one person right now it would be: I really don't know.
Something I want but I don’t really need is: a boyfriend
I live for: Is there really a right answer to this question?
I am afraid of: mice
It makes me angry when: people pick on others who are more vulnerable than them
I dream about: I don't remember
I daydream about: utopias- not world peace- personal utopias.

Best Fashion Statement Ever
Today on the bus I saw the best old man ever. He was wearing:
- A ladies leapord print hat
- Athletic looking sunglasses
- A Hawaiin print shirt
- Sporty looking track pants
- Cowboy boots
- And the clincher: Around each boot he had tied a string. Dangling from the strings was bunches and bunches of ladies beaded necklaces, so they jangled when he walked!
It was priceless. I wish I'd had a camera. If I was 60 years older, I would have been flirting.

My to do list
Well, I was bored during English, so I decided to make a to do list.
It was depressing.
There are THIRTY EIGHT items on it. They all have to be done before Saryn's wedding. Many have to be done by Wednesday.
Although, I can cross one thing off... I just finished my paper that was due Wednesday and e-mailed it away.
Two more papers to write before Wednesday. Both of them already have special extentions.
Eeeeek!!!!

Birthday
I had a lovely birthday. On Friday night, a bunch of us went out and watched Memoirs of a Giesha for Julie's birthday, and when we got out it was my birthday. So then we went out for Chinese for both of our birthdays.
Yesterday, I slept in, had a bath, and lazed around. I hung out with the guys who were making wings for the guys night, then went to girls night where we had fondue. They had even made me fancy brownies with Happy Birthday Jen signs in them.
The a couple of younger girls stayed over at my place last night, so we had a slumber party. It was lots of fun- we played scenerios- a jr. high type game where you make up situations about someone with their crush and then they say what they would do. It was actually very fun. I love talking about boys, even if I didn't know the guys they liked, and they didn't know mine. We were in two different age brackets.
Whooohoooo!!! I am 20!
or
Gasp! I am twenty! My teen years are GONE! Where did time go??
