My choice to stay
What a crazy year it has been. My plans have changed more times than I can count. This year has been so much easier in some ways, and so much harder in others. School has gotten so much more difficult. I swear my french professors have forgotten what it means to be an undergraduate, but I am now able to sit down and write a research paper in french in one very very long day! I am thankful for what I have learned through my degree, but I gotta say, I will not, will NOT miss school. That being said, I am taking my very awesome acceptance letter to do my Masters and putting my admittance letter on hold. I am going to stay in Lethbridge. I finally feel as though Lethbridge is my home, and with Mom and Dad gone next year, it will be so nice to be in my own home close to friends and family. That and I so need a break from academia. I could care less if I ever had to practice french relative pronouns again. I’m good.
So the plan is now to stay at Swiss Chalet for the summer, take a TESL course with a very special study buddy, go to Haiti with my family for a couple of months and return to look for a new job: something a little more grown up. Ideally I would love to work for Lethbridge Immigrant Services. Only time will tell tho. OH! and I want a dog. Really bad. I’ll add that to my wish list.
It’s beautiful in Lethbridge. Me and my lovely roomie went down to the river bottom to enjoy the early spring. Gorgeous, hey? One of the many reasons why I am staying.
